Experiences of higher consciousness happen, but these experiences have different meaning and understanding depending upon the level of one's development. In turn, these experiences act as a guide and help us to reach a higher level of consciousness. These experiences have value, only if this happens. The mind develops unshakable faith, only when one is convinced in the heart. One cannot enter this path with imagination or dry knowledge. One needs devotion infused with knowledge to enter this path. Deeper, practical and subtle yet forceful understanding of life is revealed with this kind of devotion. One recognizes the nature and disposition of relatives that comes in one's contact. It is very important for us to see that we don't get dumbfounded, get entangled into or develop attachment and jealousy towards these relatives. We should instantly decide if this thought, feeling and inclination of our mind is a facilitator towards reaching our goal in life. If not, then it should be removed from our mind with sternness and love. We should also draw the attention of our mind to it's smallness and worthlessness and in the process elevate our mind to higher level. This should be done with love.
