Active and passive meditation
0:45 - 1:39
|
From: 1 May 2009
Meditation is an ancient practice with two forms: active karma yoga and passive inner absorption. This world is a field of action, karma bhūmi, where our deeds shape reality. Humans have created a selfish, man-made world that is out of harmony with the perfect God-made world, causing suffering and ecological crisis. True success and peace come from selfless work, protecting all life, and surrendering the fruits of action to the divine.
"Yogaḥ karmasu kauśalam."
"Mother Nature has enough for everyone’s need, but not for the greed."

The truth is tapas

From: 1 Mar 2007
A spiritual discourse reflecting on the Kumbh Mela and warning against false spiritual powers.
"If you bathe during that constellation, the nectar still has an effect on you—meaning it cleans your karmas and blesses you with immortality."
"There is no austerity more than truth. To follow the truth is the biggest austerity, tapasyā—and no greater sin than to lie."
The lecturer begins by describing his profound experience at the Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, taking a sacred bath for all devotees. He then shifts to a cautionary theme, recounting stories of Holy Guruji exposing fraudulent fortune tellers and so-called healers. He warns devotees against those who claim siddhis (powers) like seeing auras or predicting futures, arguing these are obstacles to true spiritual progress. He advises focusing on genuine devotion and practice, sharing a personal story where Mahaprabhuji counseled him to be like a steadfast banyan tree, free from expectation.
