In conclusion, Baba gestured with a smile, "Don't be afraid! Baba is not going to ask anyone to cut anybody! It was just a simile. To 'cut' means to remain detached."
Baba sent the attendees out for tea, and called Amiya Hazra to him during the break.
Baba gave Amiya his first embrace and then, pointing at Amiya, Baba stated: "Amiya, you are God. You see God [Baba pointed at himself], but you have to become God!
Amiya was a college lecturer, and Baba continued, explaining to Eruch, "Amiya has plenty of grey matter. I will test your intelligence today. I will give you a discourse on God and breath. Only ten sentences. You will have to repeat it. Thats all."
Baba began:
What is God? God is neither heavy nor light in weight. He is all-pervading. He is absolutely independent. But everything depends upon Him. You have a body; it is matter. You also have energy and mind. Body, energy and mind, in a sense, all depend on breath. In sound sleep the body lies in bed. Energy and mind are dormant, but breath continues, independent of all three.
Amiya was having trouble concentrating. He tried to remember what Baba had said, but when he was asked to repeat it, he admitted, "Baba, I am a fool. I don't recollect anything."
Baba said, "No, you have plenty of grey matter. Anyway, don't worry. When you go back to Bhopal, try to recollect what I said and then write it out and send it to me."
"Breath is not God," Baba continued. "It is only a simile for understanding God. He is the infinite and limitless Ocean of Noor , which can only be inadequately rendered in English as 'Light' or 'Effulgence.' One who sees God sees nothing but God, and one who sees everything else sees the world.
"There is a great difference in seeing God and becoming God. You are God, and yet you have to become God," Baba repeated.
