In 1967 R.P. Vaish, a devotee of Baba’s, came to Kainchi to see Baba. He was being transferred to Delhi, and he told Baba that he wanted to tour Kashmir before taking up his post. When Vaish was leaving, Baba gave him an umbrella and said, “Keep it with you. It rains heavily there.” Vaish hesitated to accept the umbrella and said, “I have an umbrella at home. This one will serve many people here at the ashram.” Baba did not listen to him and again asked him to keep it with him.
During his stay in Kashmir, Vaish went about holding the umbrella. On his return to Delhi, he again went to Kainchi for Baba’s darshan and to return the umbrella.
On seeing him, Baba said, “You have come to return the umbrella?” Baba then said, “Keep it with you. It will be a protective umbrella over you.”
Vaish did not understand what Baba meant, but he went back to Delhi, taking the umbrella with him.
In 1978, five years after Baba’s Mahasamadhi, Vaish was transferred to Lucknow and left his extra luggage, including the umbrella, at his house in Delhi. In Lucknow he started suffering from heart, liver and spleen trouble. A check-up at Balrampur Hospital revealed that his spleen was enlarged by thirteen centimeters, but the doctors did not advise an operation due to his heart trouble.
As no other treatment option was available to him in Lucknow, he and his wife went to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in Delhi. Back in Delhi, Vaish was getting ready to go from his house to the hospital when his wife noticed the umbrella lying there. The idea came to her that by not keeping the umbrella gifted to him by Maharaj with him always, he might have been deprived of Baba’s protection. In the hot month of June, Shrimati Vaish escorted her husband to the hospital and hid the umbrella under his pillow.
Vaish was examined thoroughly once again. His spleen was still enlarged by thirteen centimeters. The doctors told him that he would have to stay in the hospital for six months and agreed that it was not advisable to operate on the spleen in his condition. They would have to rely on the medicines to affect a cure. They told him that he would have to take a special tablet once a month that would reduce his spleen by two and a half centimeters over thirty days. He took the first tablet that same day.
The next morning he felt so much better that he asked the doctor to get his spleen examined again. Saying encouraging words to him, the doctor explained that the process of measuring would be repeated after six months, not every day. Vaish was not satisfied with this and sent his wife to the chief medical superintendent with a request to get his spleen examined again as a special case.
The superintendent ordered it to be re-measured, and the results showed that his spleen had indeed reduced in size by thirteen centimeters.
Since the tablet was not that effective, the doctors were all amazed at the sudden change. When they expressed their surprise to Vaish, he pulled out the umbrella and said, “By its grace.”

“I have not said that a Guru is not necessary. But a Guru need not always be in human form. First a person thinks that he is an inferior and that there is a superior, all-knowing, all powerful God who controls his own and the world’s destiny and worships him or does Bhakti.
When he reaches a certain stage and becomes fit for enlightenment, the same God whom he was worshipping comes as Guru and leads him on. That Guru comes only to tell him ‘That God is within yourself. Dive within and realize’. God, Guru and the Self are the same”
-Ramana Maharishi, extract from Arunachala.org

What do we mean when we say there is no good and no bad, only experience? We mean that in the highest sense, there is no good or bad karma; Good and bad are mere attributes, dualistic mental interpretations and judgement. There is only Self-created experience that presents infinite opportunities for spiritual recognition and Self Realization. Cheer up, open up embrace all, exclude nothing. Love everything in the same manner. All are needed, or else wouldn't manifest at all. Nothing ever goes wrong. With that remembrance you are always centered in awareness, in calmness and true wisdom shines.

5000 years before the dawn of quantum physics Vedic texts described the holographic nature of the universe in which every point contains all the information of every other point.
- Like every jewel in Indra’s net, every point of our holographic universe contains information regarding all other points which speaks to the interdependency of every aspect of the universe,
- Indra’s Net correlates to Bell’s Theorem, the theory of non-local causes illustrating and understanding of: 1) self-as-process, as flow rather than solid and static, 2) non-locality, i.e., there is no solid and fixed external universe, 3) there is no single source point from which the net (the quantum field) arises. It is one unified, undifferentiated field.
- Each jewel reflects all of the light in the universe just as at the core level of being, all sentient beings are, and have access to, the higher frequency light of consciousness,
- The jeweled nodes in the net are only reflections of all of the other jewels which speaks to the illusory nature of appearances which are not reality but reflections thereof.

The beloved Buddhist teacher Thich Nhat Hahn used the term “interbeing” to spiritually ground the phrase, “everything is everything” which made it sound less “New Age Hippy-ish.” Interbeing refers to reality as the ever-changing interplay of causes and conditions in which everything is interconnected.
Question: What does “everything is everything” actually mean?
Question: Why does it matter?
An Answer: “Know Thyself” —Temple of Apollo at Delphi
An Answer: More of humanity will thrive on a rapidly transforming planet if a significant percentage of people live into awareness that “everything is everything,” interconnectedness, interbeing, i.e. mutual causality. That is, changes occuring in the complex, nested systems that we are, …that the universe is…, are not linear but circular spirals, —loops of patterned interactions which affect every aspect of the system at every level.
