“God, I will be checking into the Heavenly Hilton today. I want you to get me a large room with a great view and a veranda and obviously facing east. Make sure the minibar is filled with maxibar things, and get me a very large television set, and have a Maserati waiting for me in case I want to go out." |

In this recording, Kriyananda addresses many peoples' childhood misconceptions about the nature of God.
"Now, you might have a bag of gunk, but not to worry, you don’t have to carry it around, Not when you have the dumpster for a deity. Not when you have God the garbage man at your service. Or is it God the sanitation engineer? Have a sin? Not to worry, God will cart it off for you to the great incinerator in the sky. Praise the Lord and pass the garbage bags!"
According to Kriyananda, long-held misconceptions such as this stop us from evolving. We need to get rid of what is not needed in our thought, and keep moving forward.
Please listen to the recording once, then listen again using the PDF outline below.
