“Milk is to be kept in a quiet place, then it will set into curd, and butter is
to be churned from it”.
Milk
– represents blood of the body.
In
a quiet place – means withdrawing one’s mind from the world and keeping it
confined within body when mind will be quiet.
Set
into curd – means when blood in the body will be in a balanced condition and at
rest.
Human
body gets these conditions when God emanates from the body.
Now
churning rod is required for getting butter.
Life
Power is the churning rod.
Butter
– represents God in the seventh plane.
Life
Power churns the body and gets herself transformed into God in the seventh
plane.
“Then
the venom of the snake falls down in the skull”.
–
Sri Ramkrishna
If
milk is churned into butter within twenty five years of age then and then alone
a man gets butter.
“You
have got to pay in full measure, if you want to purchase a commodity in full
measure”.
–
Sri Ramkrishna
Butter
– Atman – God emanates in full measure when this human body is in a
full-bloomed youth. A man’s full-bloomed youth is twenty five years age. This
calculation has been left by Thakur.
“If
a son urges vehemently for his share on his father and mother, then the parents
in consultation with each other give out his share some two or three years
beforehand”.
–
Sri Ramkrishna
‘Father’
– is God, the Absolute, in an unseen and unattached condition in the body.
‘Mother’
– is this human body.
God,
the Absolute, through this body manifests Himself and He is seen.
The
fixed age is about twenty five years. Thakur got the Divine Mother (Atman)
between the age of twenty two and twenty three. If two or three are added to
twenty two or twenty three then it becomes twenty five. The exact time is
twenty four years and eight months.
A
man obtains his God-the-Preceptor at the age of twelve years and four months.
At the age of twenty four years and eight months he gets and sees Atman, God,
in the seventh plane. It takes twelve years and four months in the body for
God’s manifestations and realizations in multifarious conditions in the process
of transformation of Life Power into God.

“He was with his bent-down head”.
This
bent-down head signifies that Life Power has concentrated and made her passage
through the medulla oblongata to the cerebrum and thereby the nerves there have
been slackened, so the head is bent down.
When
Buddha used to be out with his begging bowl for alms, he was found to be
walking with his head fixing his eyes on the toe of his bent-down feet. It was
the sign that his Life Power entered the seventh plane slackening the nerves of
his neck.
