Creation | In Quest of Truth - Babaji Q&A, No. 250
Recorded on 25 October 2025 with worldwide participants

0:00 Intro
0:14 When a thought pops up in the mind, what is it that has created that thought?
1:42 Has the mind created that thought within itself?
4:02 Everything we perceive of as the world, that is entirely within our own mind. Does the world exist outside of our own mind?
10:09 Is the creation in the mind the same technology for which this world has been created by a higher potency mind?
12:58 Can we say that a higher potency consciousness has a thought and within that thought a consciousness has arisen?
14:58 In the universe was the creation a single event, or is it continuously creating within that universe?
28:55 Is the practice to ‘just watch’ the practice to stop the creation of thoughts?
30:27 Why do I feel God created me to perform certain karmic duties in this world, but as I grow older I feel I want to abandon my worldly desires and society to follow in Babaji’s footsteps?
38:37 What is the difference between consciousness and attention? Who directs attention to the Self?
40:03 Do circulating thoughts come from our memory?
42:49 Is our ability to think of something in the mind simply due to the brain?
44:18 In the great beginning, was there a visualization before the first concepts came into universe?
44:40 Some people have aphantasia, where they have no ability to have a picture in the mind’s eye – is this just an effect of the brain?
45:11 For Ramakrishna, Kali the Cosmic Mother was so real, but when He reached Nirvikalpa Samadhi did She disappear, was She an imagination?
46:20 Are places like Vaikuntha where they say Vishnu resides real places or imaginations?
46:43 When sitting in meditation there is no experience, so how do I know if I am in samadhi, or sleep, or trance, what is the difference between them?
49:22 How do I know when I get out of meditation whether or not I was in a trance or sleeping?
51:35 How does the higher consciousness help us deal with the everyday life that is in the dream?
53:02 If the consciousness is not applied, does the imaginative world get reduced?
54:44 Though Babaji’s mind is completely silent, is the appearance of this world still strong?
55:31 So after Nirvikalpa Samadhi, the Yogi doesn’t pay attention to the universe, but it is just there?
56:20 Are vasanas the acquired habits of the mind?
56:50 Babaji's closing words
