In continuation to many articles written on this subject – which can be searched and found in this site as “token” this a practical method or preparation for a token act.

Before starting a token act – it is good to know the difference between conscious responsibility & consciousness responsibility. Conscious responsibility can be understood as conscious surface level acts and consciousness responsibility is more of psychological change for evolution in consciousness.

Karmayogi says, one conscious act is worth more than hours of meditation. Even in routine acts that we do we are not performing at its acme 100 % of what we know. So, at first level it is consciously having responsibility to execute physical, vital and mental requirements.

The conscious responsibility for mental is understanding, for the vital it is energy and for the physical it is shedding inertia for perfection in work. In other words, consciously making the body work to achieve a perfect result, conscious sustained interest to do that is vital energizing the work. Mind consciously understanding the process of this accomplishment.

We can understand this if we can analyse how unconsciously we do everything based on our habits of doing that work. Also, we can see how consciously we restrained ourselves to acquire manners, how consciously we controlled our desires to become cultured.

So conscious to consciousness is step by step method. Unless we are conscious of every act we do – as Mother wished or against Her wish – we cannot go to the higher psychological level of consciousness responsibility.

Karmayogi gives the following steps that can be followed to develop that aspiration.

1. Intense prayer to be able to be conscious of Mother.
2. Emotional saturation of doing it for Mother.
3. Understand the entire process of these coming to you.
4. Full detachment of result and concentration only on perfection in physical, mental and vital requirements.
5. Consecration

Token act is taken to find our Psychological DNA to understand our level and from where to start.

It is to understand the inner keys we have – not every body has the same inner keys- or process of that particular act to accomplish and to apply it elsewhere or in a larger one. Because Appa says if one cannot do it in a small area, he cannot do it in a bigger area. 

So instead of taking a new work for experiment, it is better to take already failed work or even a successful work where your skill and capacity played a roll. Now do it with principles of Token act to see the difference. Also you can start from the highest strength you have. It is the process of understanding turning to faith or even trust on Mother.

Interestingly, He  gives the following line -to see how conscious we are in interest to know anything fully and understanding the process. Any guess? பந்தல் போடுவது சூரியன் , தென்னம்கீற்று அல்ல.

பந்தலுக்கு காரணம் நிழல் தேவை , நம் எண்ணம் , சூழல், சமுதாயம் கொண்டாட்டம் என்று எது காரணமாக இருந்தாலும் , இருப்பதாக நினைத்தாலும் conscious -ஆக உள்ளே சென்று பார்த்தால் புரியும் இந்த தேவைக்கு மூல காரணம் சூரியன் மற்றும் அதன் வெப்பம். அது போல நம் ஒவ்வொரு செய்கையையும் எந்த மூல கரணம் எதை செய்ய வைக்கிறது என்று பார்ப்பது ஞானம்.
