From our LSLP 3d Edition 2004 a sample of Bhau Kalchuri’s article on the “Passion of Christ” From an email dictated by Bhau on 4th March, 2004 after a review of The Passion of the Christ was emailed to him: I received your loving email dated 3rd March regarding The Passion of the Christ with your remark that the film performed a box office miracle at theaters around the country, achieving divine numbers not seen before from an independently produced and distributed film. I am anxious to know what is depicted in The Passion of the Christ. The article was about distribution, but about the film there was nothing. How the Lord suffered for humanity was not mentioned. People who have seen the film may know and may realize what the Lord has to do as far as a humanity that does not follow His Wish. He has to come down on earth, and then He suffers for humanity’s misdeeds. With His love and compassion, He guides humanity towards God. We had been given the opportunity to remain with God when He was in human form, and we observed His physical suffering. It was too much for us to bear. Every moment, every hour, every day, how Meher Baba suffered! The physical suffering was the only kind we could see, but He also suffered mentally and spiritually, and that we could not observe. We have not even one iota of His infinite suffering. The Perfect Masters are the only ones who know how the Lord suffers for humanity and all the lower kingdoms in order to give them a Universal Push. He is the Compassionate Father, and we are all His mischievous children. No one accepts Him unless He makes us accept Him, and how does He do this? http://ambscslslp.blogspot.com/ (http://issuu.com/parvardigar/docs/lslp_3rd_2004ss/1?e=1202725/7459347) He has to clean the dirt that we have collected by washing our dirty laundry. And we don’t know what He does or what difficulties we cause Him when He washes it. This laundry smells so bad that it is impossible to touch! We are so ignorant that we do not realize that our laundry is stinking, and how it started stinking because of lust, anger, selfishness, greed, hypocrisy, dishonesty, jealousy, pride, attachment, cruelty, etc. We become one with it, unconscious of Reality. (http://issuu.com/parvardigar/docs/lslp_3rd_2004ss/1?e=1202725/7459347) There are actually two types of laundry, one good (which consists of happiness), one bad (which consists of misery). The difference is that the good laundry does not create physical suffering, but bad laundry does. Why do both laundries stink? Because both are binding and illusory. We have to go beyond both good and bad. If one has good sanskaras, the mind wears good laundry, if bad sanskaras, bad laundry. But after all, both are still laundry which keep us attached to Illusion. This laundry is the dress of the mind, and both are binding. Therefore, we have to be free from both types, and the only way to do this is to remain dedicated to Him and follow His Wish. No one knows that He is washing our laundry, yet how do we behave with Him? As if He is our enemy! We obstruct Him because we are so attached to our laundry and only the few fortunate ones serve Him. The rest of the world tortures Him, and He remains humiliated. But then at the end, when humanity comes to know that He was cleaning our dirty stinking laundry all the time, humanity accepts Him.
