Good evening, dear brothers and sisters. Around the world, dear bhaktas, practitioners of yoga and the spiritual life, devotees of Bhagavān Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇ Mahāprabhujī, this divine message comes to you from the Holy Land, India, Om Viśvadīp Gurukul, Āśram, Jāḍaṇ, Rājasthān. After a long, long time, you see me again on the webcast, and I am very happy to be with you, at least through this medium. I especially welcome all our bhaktas who came for a special anuṣṭhāna to India. This anuṣṭhāna is dedicated to world peace, harmony, love, and the protection of the environment. As planned, you will be blessed to take part in the Yajña, a one-day Yajña. Mantras from the Vedas will be chanted by learned Paṇḍits and Ācāryas on the 12th, and we will try to send this also as a webcast, live or recorded, to you. Anuṣṭhāna is a very powerful sādhanā. It is done with a particular aim in life: to achieve the spiritual goal, to realize peace of mind, to purify the Antaḥkaraṇa – Mana, Buddhi, Citta, and Ahaṃkāra – and to become free from the three tapas, the three fires: Ādhibhautika, Ādhidaivika, and Ādhyātmika. In this way, each individual performing anuṣṭhāna sādhanā proceeds comfortably towards spirituality, and that path becomes pure. Abhyāsa, abhyāsa… O son of Kuntī, Arjuna, you need practice, practice, practice. Similarly, for all of us, we should continue our practice. If you interrupt your practice, that time is lost. Do not break the chain of continuity of your practice. Japata Paśu are Pakṣī Pyārī Śubha Ruṣyam. Even the animals and birds, in their feeling and language, also remember God in their own way. For God must not be that kind of God which you think. Suppose you meditate, wanting to see God. Yes? Now God will come to you. How do you know it is God? If God Rāma comes with a bow and arrow, Viṣṇu comes with Sudarśana Cakra, Śaṅkha, Gadā, or Hanumānjī… Niranjan, Niranjan, no ranjan, no dirt, no spots – pure consciousness, not physical, pure consciousness. Many, many things completely pollute our consciousness. The door to consciousness is the intellect, the door to the intellect is the mind, the door to the mind is the actions, the indriyas, and the door to the indriyas is this material world. Therefore, it is said, “Brahma Satya, Jagat Mithyā, Eko Brahma Dvitīya Nāsti.” Brahma Satya: the real truth is that Brahman. Not what I said, what you said, what he did, what she did, what we did, what they did – that is just a wave rising from the confusion of the human intellect in this world. Wise are they, sādhakas are they who can rise above this, like a lotus flower growing in muddy water. That lotus is not muddy; it does not gather any dirt from that muddy water, yet it cannot exist without that muddy, dirty water. Similarly, we all practice the spiritual; we are like a lotus, but we must live in this muddy saṃsāra, this worldly existence. Therefore, the anuṣṭhāna is done to try to rise above, like that lotus. The lotus bud emerges from the water and unfolds on the surface. Everybody looks, and people run with cameras to take its photo. In the same way, when our consciousness is purified through Dhanustan practices, through our Guru mantras, through our Guru bhakti, then – when consciousness is so pure – many cameras will run behind you to take your photo, because you have become the lotus. Anuṣṭhāna can be done anywhere, but more successful anuṣṭhānas take place in specific places. One goes to a holy place called a Pīṭha, a Śakti Pīṭha. There are many Śakti Pīṭhas in India. A Siddha Pīṭha is where the Siddhas and Yogīs lived, and where the Gurudev lived – that is called Tiratistan. There, Śakti means that energy, that power – those divine waves that filter all negative energy, negative waves, and thoughts from all over the world. Therefore, on certain occasions like Śivarātri, Navarātri, Janmāṣṭamī, and many others, bhaktas go to the Gurudwāra, the place of the Gurudev, and perform the anuṣṭhāna there. That anuṣṭhāna becomes very successful and pure, just as we have anuṣṭhānas every year in our āśrams, no matter in which part of the world the āśram is. When you truly do the sādhanā, you gain something. Many people come in the name of anuṣṭhāna or practice, but they do not practice. It does not matter who you are – if we do not practice, we achieve nothing. Therefore, anuṣṭhāna is done with a very pure, very deep resolution in your heart, with a clear mind and clear intellect. You place your saṅkalpa in your consciousness, and then you sit and practice. Have firm faith. If there is no faith, then you do not have that; otherwise, just your lips move, your tongue moves, quickly chanting your mantras. When you do quick, quick mantras, you lose your feelings, you lose your aims, you lose that saṅkalpa for which you were doing the tapasyā. I admire you, I welcome you, and I am very happy that you travelled so far and came to India to our Jāḍaṇ Āśram. This is our Siddha Pīṭha. Om Śrī Alakh Purījī Siddha Pīṭha. Everywhere we have our āśrams, there is that light from the Sapta Yuga time, from Svayaṃbhū Śiva. Then all the Saptaṛṣis and many saints were there, and our Alakhpurījī was there. And so here, when you do your sādhanā, when you do your seva or karma yoga, that will be counted. But there should be no negative thinking. When you do your sādhanā, you should not have any negative waves in your mind. Pure, pure. You know, once Gurujī said, if someone doesn’t like the sun, and you take a handful of dust and throw it at the sun, this dust will fall back on you. No matter how far you look, the dust will fall into your own eyes. Whatever you do – negative action or thought – will sooner or later fall on you and blind you. So pure sādhanā, pure thinking, pure dedication is like pure sunshine. Nothing can reach the sun. What will melt will melt; what will dissolve will dissolve; what will burn will burn; what will dry will dry. Nothing can come there. Only one who has ātmā jñāna… glimpse the light as much as you can. Don’t think that you are tired; don’t think that your knees are hurting. No problem. You can stretch your knees. Liberation will not come from postures alone. Liberation will come from knowledge and bhakti. Mokṣa Mūlam Guru Kṛpā. When we lose the Guru’s grace, we lose everything. Therefore, Holy Gurujī said in his bhajan: Prabhudīp Dayālayār śon dī jo Prabhudīp Dayālayār kar kṛpāmo satsaṅg dī jo kar kṛpāmo satsaṅg dī Śrī Dīp Dayālayār lejo Prabhudīpā Dayālayā rājās bār bār vardhani yehī māṅgu. Again and again I beg for your blessings. Again and again I beg for your kindness. In case I have to be born again in any life, please bless me with seva to you, to become your servant. Because seva is the easiest and the best way. You cannot do the sevā without bhakti. You cannot do the seva without Jñāna. You cannot do the seva without Rāja. And you cannot do the sevā without tyāga. Therefore, Bhakti Yoga, Rāja Yoga, Jñāna Yoga, and Karma Yoga are all in oneness with Karma. For you cannot do seva; when you lose love, you lose everything. Then you have no seva bhāva. Bhāva lost, everything is lost. Bhāva has two meanings: one is price, value, and second, devotion. Suppose today gold costs 1 million euros per kilo. Now, tomorrow the price goes high, and it costs 5 million euros per kilo. The gold has not increased by even a milligram, but you have gained four million euros. Why? Because the price went high. Suppose from one million it falls to only one hundred thousand euros. The gold is still there; not even a milligram was decreased – still one kilo – but you lost 900,000 euros. Why? Because the value fell. Similarly, when you do anuṣṭhāna, when you are on the spiritual path, suddenly you get doubts or you lose the value. Then everything is lost in you; you become a beggar again, out on the street. Therefore, sādhakas must try their best to protect their spirituality and devotion. The best way to protect is to go to satsaṅga. The best way to lose everything is to go to kuśaṅga. Therefore, during the anuṣṭhāna, with pure bhāva, Gurudeva will give you everything; Mahāprabhujī will give you everything. So I wish you a very beautiful anuṣṭhāna. Continue your sādhanā. My dear devotees, bhaktas, practitioners here and in other parts of the world, I wish you all the best. And tomorrow again I will be with you through the webcast, if the webcast functions. Today I want to give you all good wishes. And we will sing one bhajan, so you should be with us in the bhajan. Vajra Niyala Vajre Manavā Śrī Prabhudīpa Dayā Śūnyaguna Rūpa Daryo Hari Jag Me Jīva Ke Śūnyaguna Rūpa Daryo Hari Jag Me Jīva Ke Pratipū Alahāre Har Jīva Ke Pratipū Yantra Bahar Hai Paripūrṇa Yantra Bah Jyoti Hai Paramāviśa Mahāprabhudīpa. He bhajore manbha sīrī pūjā deep dhaya Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Dev Purījī Mahādeva Kī Satguru Svāmī Madhavānandajī Bhagavān Kī Jai. After all, when holy Gurujī sat in bhajan, in meditation, everyone has some vṛttis; every living being has thoughts. In life, there are many situations where the mind goes here and there. So Gurujī said to his mind, “Bhajore Manva Śrī Pūjā Dīpā Dāyāla. O my mind, meditate on Mahāprabhujī.” Bhajore Manva Śrī Pūjā Dīpa Dayāl. Universally worshipped, merciful Mahāprabhū Dīp Dayāl Parabrahma Puruṣottam Swāmī. He is the Parabrahma Puruṣottam, the highest. Karadeve Najara Nihāl – if he will look with his merciful eyes, you are liberated; you are gifted with many qualities and beautiful blessings. Sarguṇa Rūpa Daryohārī Jagme – he came from Nirguṇa to Saguṇa, Bhagavān Dīp Nārāyaṇa Mahāprabhujī. All who come from the Nirguṇa appear again, manifest in Saguṇa form. Sargun Rūpa Daryohārī Jagme Hari, the Lord Viṣṇu, jīvan ke pratipāl, for the protection of everyone, for the protection of every life, every creature. Andhar Bāhar Hai Paripūraṇ – Gurujī realized, you first have to get realization of your master. Andhar Bahar Hai Paripūrṇa: inside as well as outside, he is Paripūrṇa, because Mahāprabhujī is that Divine. Andar bhayar hai paripūrṇa, jyoti hai param viśāl – and the light of Mahāprabhujī is very bright and great, very vast. Viśāl means endless, like a large banyan tree; we say, “O, baḍā viśāl.” So that Jyoti, like this vast sun, rises and illuminates our planet. Andar bhayar hai paripūraṇ, jyoti hai param viśāl, bhajore manvas, śrī pūjā dīp hari. Next, “Jokoī Dhyāna Dhare Nijamāna Se.” Then Gurujī realized and said, “Jokoī – if anyone like me,” he said, “Jokoī Dhyāna Dhare Nijamāna Se – if with your real mind, with your real feeling, you will meditate.” You go into nothingness; you fail in nothingness. Therefore, it is our individual concern that we practice with that love. Janam Maran Bhav Bandhan Chhute, Moksha Hove Tata Kaal. The bondage of birth and death in this cycle of eighty-four lakhs is cut off then; otherwise, it is not easy to cut – there is no other way. Śrī Prabhujī Bhagavān, Dīp Nārāyaṇ, Jīvan Tāraṇ Kāraṇ, Ī Param Kṛpāl, Mahāprabhujī took incarnation to liberate all souls. And Gurujī said, “He is always a protection above me.” Mary, Sir Parahera Kval – always he is protecting. It means He protects all the bhaktas who practice, who have divine love and faith, and who will go, as they came, into nothingness. This bhajan is a beautiful bhajan. Tomorrow, I will translate another bhajan. And for today, I wish you all the best. If it is good night for some, and already morning for others, then good morning. Oṁ Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah, Sarve Santu Nirāmayāḥ, Sarve Bhadrāṇi Paśyantu, Mā Kaścid Duhkhabhāg Bhavet, Oṁ Śāntiḥ Śāntiḥ Śāntiḥ.
