Paramparā kī jay, viśva guru mamadaleśvara paramahaṁsavāmī maiśvaradānanjī gurudeva kī jay. Good evening, dear brothers and sisters. Blessings come to you from Holy Bhārat, the Divine Place, Viśvadīp Gurukul Jhaḍam, Pālī, Rājasthān. Welcome. Unfortunately, I was not here yesterday because suddenly a program arose. In India, they are celebrating these fourteen days, the manifestation of Lord Gaṇeśa. It is said that the two months, Śrāvaṇa and Bhādra, according to the Vedic calendar, are the rainy time. It is believed that at this time, Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva, and all divine incarnations go for rest. Between Kedārnāth and Badrīnāth, where our universally worshipped great incarnation Śrī Alāpurījī lived, there is a beautiful lake called Sattva Path. Yesterday was the day when they all bathed there before returning to their work. This day is known as Dev Jhūlanī Gyarās, the eleventh moon day of Śukla Pakṣa. According to ancient tradition, every village has its temple. They take the deity's statue in a procession to the village lake, the talāb, to bathe it. There is music, dancing, and celebration. The farmers are happy as harvesting begins. Children swim and play with fruits in the water. This tradition embodies sustainability, a challenge for the modern world. In almost every village, there were beautiful lakes, preserved and protected from pollution, providing free, clean water for all—one for bathing and animals, another reserved strictly for human drinking water. If the United Nations adopted this model, water problems could be solved. But this area must be strictly protected from the source. Unfortunately, 80-85% of these ponds in India are now destroyed. Land is occupied, pollution is created. This is a global issue, especially in parts of Africa. Humans have lost the value of water, thinking it only comes from a tap. Children do not know its source. If this continues, it will be a major problem. Spiritually, if you see that lake as a place where God bathes, you will not pollute it. Many who lack environmental consciousness still believe in God and thus protect the lake. Festivals, traditions, religion, and spirituality must connect to protect nature. As long as the Gaṅgā was accepted as holy, it was pure. With the rise of so-called modern education and science, spiritual feeling was neglected, and now the Gaṅgā has become a canal. Look at the Yamunā, Godāvarī, and rivers worldwide, filled with plastic and waste. If you believe and respect the Gaṅgā as holy, you will not allow this. Similarly, in Kuṇḍalinī Yoga, within this body, our Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumṇā are the Gaṅgā, Yamunā, and Sarasvatī. If you breathe good, pure air, it creates holy feelings. Polluted air pollutes these nāḍīs, causing illness and emotional and intellectual complications. The science of kuṇḍalinī and chakras involves prāṇāyāma, which filters and purifies these inner rivers, cleansing the entire nervous system. It keeps the pure channels flowing. Everywhere in India, you could once dig a few meters to find pure groundwater. Now, even water 200 meters deep is often undrinkable due to pollution. How does pollution reach so deep? It is very sad. Each year, the groundwater level falls. Where do trees and forests get water? The monsoon lasts only a month or two; ten months are dry. We had rain in Rājasthān, but it was not enough for groundwater. Hardly any river flowed. So-called educated engineers design small dams, blocking water in many places. This kills rivers. Rivers and creeks are like nerves in the body; if you tie them, the limb dies. Blocking waters is killing the earth. In recent years, European experts created chambers on our land, blocking water. We have 80 hectares; from the rain, our talāb could be full for use in our fields, but the water was blocked and flowed away in the heat. All this must be opened if we want water. Similarly, pesticides and the milk from cattle fed unnatural, chemical feeders—their milk, butter, curd—block our bodily channels. The result is a rapid increase in cancer, heart attacks, paralysis, brain hemorrhage, and many unknown diseases. This is because humanity goes against nature. Our beloved Bhagavān Śrī Deep Nārāyaṇ Mahāprabhujī said in his golden preaching: for the upliftment of human consciousness, do not go against nature. If you do, nature will one day take revenge. Mahāprabhujī said this 60-80 years ago when pesticides did not exist. No one spoke of "organic" then. Now everyone seeks organically grown vegetables and milk. Our cows in the Jādan Āśram Gaushalā are not fed unnatural feed. They are healthy, strong, sporty, relaxed, not nervous or depressed. They enjoy life and are friendly. If you have depression, go near our cows; it will go away. Our calves smile with beautiful eyes and ears. They will love you, hug you, lick you. Animals are among the best therapies for psychic problems, nerve breakdown, depression, or emotional issues. But house pets like dogs and cats often get diseases from their masters. In America, there is now yoga for dogs—a famous, novel idea where owners practice with their dogs stretching alongside. Come to Jādan and experience friendly, wild, natural life in an untouched forest, free from pollution. It is a pollution-free spot in an ocean of pollution, a small island. That is Jādan Āśram Viśvadīp Gurukul. To preserve and protect sustainability, you must connect with spiritual thought. Where spirituality is lost, everything is lost. Then mental pollution comes, which is the most dangerous pollution. A real devil, a real rākṣasa, drinks only the blood of others. But the rākṣasa of your anger, hate, jealousy, or mental pollution drinks the blood of others and your own. Like a forest fire, it burns the forest and itself. Therefore, humans ought to lead a spiritual life. Great Swāmī Vivekānanda said the prāṇa, the strength of a nation, is its spirituality. When spirituality is gone, that nation will be in trouble. But it must be spirituality with viveka—clear thinking, a free mind, not a narrow mind creating conflict between my God and your God, my religion and your religion. This conflict is another dangerous pollution awakening in the human mind and intellect, causing wars and disturbances between races, nations, and religions. Therefore, from time to time, great saints incarnate to teach. But now, very few follow. The science of kuṇḍalinī, the practice of Kuṇḍalinī Yoga—first, you should know if the master has true experience. Then, practice systematically. Many think awakening kuṇḍalinī can be dangerous. I tell you the awakening itself is not dangerous, but the teaching is dangerous if the teacher does not know how to guide. Any exercise can create problems if done incorrectly. The awakening of kuṇḍalinī is, first and foremost, ānanda. Mahāprabhujī said, "Ānanda so'haṁ brahma." Brahma is ānanda. That ānanda, attained through meditation, mantras, guru-kṛpā, and kuṇḍalinī practice, leads you to the ocean of bliss. Great Swāmī Śivānandajī of Ṛṣikeś said: Within you is the ocean of bliss. Within you is the fountain of joy, and within you is the immortal Ātmā. To experience this, kill the little "I," the little ego. Kill that ego and lead the divine life. How quickly do you become angry? How quickly do you criticize? You are not in joy but in the toy of anger. There was a master and a disciple. The disciple asked what seva he could do. The master said to meditate, practice āsana and prāṇāyāma, do svādhyāya, read good books, clean the āśram, and cook. The disciple said he would cook. He always cooked rice and masala dosa, as he was from South India, while the master was in the North. One day, the master said, "Today we will have chana and moong dāl." The disciple had never cooked these. The master said to cook, and after satsaṅg, they would have dinner. The disciple was cooking but did not know when the dāl would be done. When a disciple does not listen to the master attentively, knowledge does not go in; it goes out. Do not sit holding your legs loosely; sit properly. In school, do you put your legs on the table? The master was giving a lecture to hundreds of devotees. The disciple came from behind and whispered, "When will the dāl be done?" He was afraid it was over or undercooked. The master could not answer directly during satsaṅg. So he addressed the audience: "My dear devotees, those who have not yet purified their ego, whose hardness of heart is not dissolved, cannot have humbleness." There is anger inside. The master answered indirectly: "Jab laga haṇḍī khaḍ bade, jab tak haṇḍī khaḍ bade, tab tak sī jī naye, sī jī tab hī jāniye, nāche kūḍe naye." The disciple understood. "Jab laga haṇḍī khaḍā bade." Haṇḍī is a clay cooking pot—better than metal pots. The master said: As long as the dāl is jumping up and down, with each grain dancing separately, it is not cooked. Individually, everyone has an opinion, ego, jealousy: "You have not done this, you have not done that." I am an individual. The modern system makes individuals; there are no joint families, no love and living together. "Jab laga haṇḍī khaḍ bade"—as long as things inside are jumping. "Tab tak sījī naye"—it is not yet cooked through. "Sījī tab hī jāniye"—know it is done when "nāche kūḍe naye"—there is no more dancing and jumping, only a little movement altogether. That is when the kuṇḍalinī divine śakti begins to make its way to pure consciousness. Then happiness comes, and you distribute that happiness to everyone—in your words, behavior, look, actions, and walk. Such kindness makes you likable. Some people, though now prohibited, used to keep bears, put rings in their noses, and make them dance for money. They taught them to play the Damaru and show how rich people walk, how a newly married couple walks, how a mother-in-law behaves. They played so nicely. That is a reaction. Our inner reaction is what comes out. Santosha is very important. "Santosh gaj dhan, bhaj dhan, aur ratan dhan khan jab aaye, santosh dhan sab dhan dul shaman." Contentment is the greatest wealth. The second quality or feeling of awakening is called santosha. Santosī nārāyaṇasakī—one who has contentment is ever happy. Then one is not greedy or jealous. Ānanda and happiness. The third quality is Dayā. Dayā dharam ka mool hai—the root of dharma is compassion. "Dayā dharm kā mūl hai, pāp mūl abhimān, Tulsī dayā na chhoḍīye jab laghatme prāṇ." Great Tulsidāsajī said compassion is the root of dharma. Compassion towards every creature—children, partners, colleagues, friends, animals. When Dayā is there, there is no suffering; everything is a clear sky. Where there is no dayā, there is a thunderstorm with lightning in the clouds. This lightning means negative energy has awakened in you, and one day you will have a brain hemorrhage, a neck problem, a thyroid issue, pancreas or heart problems. Therefore, O merciful one, O giver, Dayā. Dayā dharma ka mool hai. "Pāpa mūla abhimān"—you begin to sin when ego is there. Then you are blind. Day and night, you think how to make someone unhappy, how to create problems. "What can I do so I will not shout at my wife tomorrow? What can I do so I can tell my husband I will not cook anymore?" Searching: pāpa, mūla, abhimāna. The roots of sin are your ego. Ego is blind. "Ye man mota bail hoi kar khiche jagat ki gadi. Andha dund me jāye daud to paḍe biṣyārī khaḍī. Sāḍo bai oman bāḍo anāḍī. Saṁjayon saṁjit nahī̃ aisā murkh nī̃ calāvadī. Sadō bai ye mana badā anāḍī. Are bina mukh charo charo charāy rāt din. Bin mukh charo charay raat din, fir bhi bhukh nahī̃ kaḍī." This mind is so uneducated. It always pulls your consciousness down to destructive thoughts. The mind eats day and night without a mouth. Though it has no mouth, it eats constantly. Oh my mind, what should I tell you? Are you a buffalo, or the cult of buffaloes, so active day and night? Our mind is fed by the blackmail of thought: what to do, what is this, what is that. This is not human nature; it is called Rākṣasa or Asura. The fourth is love. Love is God, and God is love. What is love? It is gentleness, seeing beauty in everyone in God's creation, seeing the divine light and good qualities in everyone. Gurū Nānak said: "I went to see the bad people outside. I didn't find anyone. But when I searched myself, there was no one worse than me." So, look within you. What are you doing? Who are you? How are you? The Yoga in Daily Life and Self-Inquiry Meditation show you clearly not who you are, but how you are. The first symptoms of kuṇḍalinī awakening are Ānanda, Santosha, Dayā, and Love. If you have these, your kuṇḍalinī has already reached the Anāhata Cakra. If it is only somewhere lower, it rises and falls. There is not necessarily a physical feeling; it is a changing clarity in your viveka, intellect, mind, and heart. Great are those who can practice kuṇḍalinī sādhanā and purify the cakras through Yoga in Daily Life. Please order or read the book Hidden Powers in Humans: Chakras and Kuṇḍalinī. It will make everything clear. It is available worldwide wherever Yoga in Daily Life centers are, in twelve languages. Tomorrow, we will speak again about Kuṇḍalinī and cakras. The day after tomorrow is the incarnation day of our beloved Holy Gurujī, His Holiness Swāmī Madhavānandajī. Tomorrow evening's satsaṅg will be about that, and we may translate it into more languages, including Czech and ex-Yugoslavian languages, so many devotees worldwide can benefit. Till tomorrow, my dear bhaktas, devotees, brothers, sisters, practitioners, seekers, and spiritual aspirants, I wish you all the best and the divine blessings of Om Śrī Alagapurījī Siddha Pīṭha. Om Śānti, Śānti, Śānti.
