CELEBRATING THE 165th BIRTHDAY OF THE FOUNDER GRAND MASTER DASIRA NARADA
My dear disciples, we are here today to celebrate the birthday of the Founder Grand Master Dasira Narada. He is our beloved Spiritual Master. He is also a saviour of humankind. He was completely awakened to the falsehoods and impermanence of this secular world while the majority of us are still in a state of darkness, lacking clarity of mind. We continue to chase after the unreal things of material life, sinking ourselves deeply into the web of obsession and delusion. As a result, we have to face consequences, which create anguish and suffering. With immense love for humankind, the Founder Grand Master went on His search for a spiritual path that could lead all beings to a place of true peace and happiness. His noble aspirations and compassion for humankind were in fact
resonant with the Spiritual Realms of the Divine Consciousness. After 18 years of spiritual cultivation, harmonizing His ascended consciousness continuously to the spiritual realms of the Higher Beings, the Founder Master by himself was able to open His own chakras. He attained illumination, radiating an immense and glorious aura. At that moment, He achieved the “Six Transcendental Wisdoms”, realizing the ultimate Truth and all the mysterious wonders in the Universe.
Thereafter, the Founder Grand Master developed the preeminent teachings of “Divine Dharma Meditation”, which is called UHBE presently. It is a true blessing for humankind that the Founder Grand Master discovered a unique method of initiating the opening of the chakras and guiding people to a noble path of meditation and spiritual cultivation. By developing virtuous aspirations, everyone can eventually awaken their own soul, which has been for so long in a state of darkness and delusion. Once the soul is awakened and our minds are clear, we can gradually separate ourselves from lowly desires for personal gain. We begin to aspire towards a life of devotion and altruistic service, bringing benefits to humankind. In so doing, we build merit to develop a solid foundation for our spirituality. Dear disciples, you should understand that your soul needs as much nourishment as the physical body. We take care of the physical body with food and nutrients. We nourish the soul by turning inward during meditation to cultivate noble aspirations, virtuous thoughts, and loving-kindness. These are the best nourishment for our souls. It is in the moment of inward meditation that we can listen to the sacred voice of our true inner-self, calling us to go back to our Original Home of Wholeness. As members of UHBE, we know that life is full of adversity and suffering. As disciples of the Founder Grand Master, we should learn to live in harmony with everyone in every circumstance of life to help people and bring goodness to all of life. When we choose not to lead our lives with this inspiration, we are indeed departing from the discipline of UHBE and the loving embrace of the Founder Grand Master.
When we have become true disciples of the Founder Grand Master we always wish to be within in His loving presence and blessing. We strive to develop meditation centers so that everyone has a place to practice altruistic compassion and empathy for one another. When we transfer energy to help others, at the same time, we have a chance to transfer His sublime teachings into their consciousnesses, helping them to recognize the root cause of human sorrow and suffering. Soon, some will awaken towards a life of spiritual cultivation in order to liberate themselves from human suffering. All true UHBE disciples appreciate that the happiness of others is our happiness and the evolution of others is our own evolution. In other words, our mainstay is to love and care for people and our mission is to help everyone cultivate to ascend on the journey of evolution.
The foundation of UHBE practice is based on the cultivation of compassion and altruism. All disciples should use the power of compassion within their own hearts to bring the light of hope to everyone and to help develop good people for society. Together, we will build a harmonious world of love so that all can live in serenity and fullfilment. The discipline of UHBE is a spiritual science, which provides disciples clear guidance about all aspects of the reality of the universe so that they can have a thorough understanding about the meaning of their existence on earth. This understanding enables us to solve our own problems that derive from being human. As disciples of UHBE, we should realize that this secular world is a place for education where we learn the many good lessons of evolution. This secular world is also a living hell for us if we remain stuck in the same lowly situations repeatedly experiencing the same unwholesome ways of living and being driven by our greed, selfishness and ignorance. As a consequence, we have to go through many, many cycles of birth-death-and rebirth in order to grow enough from all of these kinds of experiences. This process of purification is required by the Law of Cause and Effect or the Law of Karma until we gain all necessary understanding and knowledge for our spiritual evolution.
At present, disciples are not yet able to see the invisible realms of darkness in the world of hell. However, everyday we all can see the visible world of hell, which is unfolding in front of our eyes. Countless acts of violence, crisis, conflicts, and wars are happening everywhere, all over the world. People are destroying one another to satisfy their own greed, vengeance, and hatred. They use all kinds of rationalizations, fabricating beautiful images to cover the ugly things that they are doing. They commit acts of killing innocent people with the conviction that they are protecting human civilization, they are defending a so-called authentic religion or they are claiming their right as representatives of the Creator. These people are creating so much pain and sorrow to their human fellows without showing a minute sense of sympathy or remorse. These individuals are building a living hell on earth. Their wicked actions are created by their lowly egos, which are full of delusion and selfish ambition. As we can see, without compassion and love for humankind, some persons have become so terrible that all they can do is to bring pain and cause harm to others. As a result, eventually they will have to endure endless afflictions and become trapped forever in the secular world of their own darkness.
Out of His immense love for humankind, our beloved Founder Grand Master has brought to life the teachings of UHBE with Divine Dharma Meditation. His moral and spiritual philosophies help us to cultivate virtue and build merit. We are learning to love one another unconditionally. We must endeavour to accept the responsibility to build our world into a peaceful place of happiness. This is the only way that we can destroy every trace of greed and the selfish lowliness of our egos, liberating our souls from the secular world of karma and suffering.
