Answer

Dear Deepak,

The short answer to your question is “yes!”

There are many examples in Autobiography of a Yogi, which illustrate this ability.

We might say to ourselves, “Oh, but this is what a great God-realized Master can do, not a mere person like me.” But “Master” means “self-mastery” and that is both our duty and our destiny.

The great Ones often say: “There is no past or future. Time is an illusion. Therefore, live in the Eternal Now, where perfect and ever-new, never-ending bliss resides.”

Deep meditation will help you achieve that state very quickly.
