Deep Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī, Devīśvara Mahādeva Kī, Mādhav Kṛṣṇa Bhagavān Kī, Sanātana Dharma Kī. Many blessings to all. It was a beautiful time. A nearly one-month stay in New Zealand was very interesting, with many good programs in Auckland and here in Wellington. Fiji was also beautiful. Where the bhaktas or where the sādhus, the saints, are, they are always governing the spiritual energy, the spiritual light. That spiritual light does not need to introduce itself by saying, "I am spiritual." It touches our body, our soul, our consciousness, and our thoughts. It is said that we are swimming, levitated, fluttering in that divine radiance, that divine energy. Many times you may not feel it, but it is there. And when you do not feel it, then there is a one-self that says to one-self. There is one bhajan from Śrī Mahāprabhujī called Saheliyā Sūtī Jagāye. If I give a word-by-word translation, you will misunderstand. For translation, we need language, knowledge, and devotion. Otherwise, it is not possible. Here, sāheliyā means your friends. Girls will say to their girlfriends, "My sahelī." So, girls are as a sahelī. In Krishna’s case, we call them gopīs. People have completely misunderstood the gopīs. Gopīs mean our indriyas, our senses. Krishna is the ātmā. Arjuna is the mind. Ego is Duryodhana. Bhīṣma is our ambition. And our ignorance, our greed, is a blind thing. So this is all within us. Or, gopī means the disciples, the female disciples. Gopī means the men. Now, sahelya sūti jagoy. Normally, someone who understands Hindi will say, "Oh, my all girlfriends, you are sleeping, get up." My girls are the friends, or daughters you could say. But sahelyā means friend. Sahelya suthi jago bhayo parabah. Oh my friends, wake up, the dawn has risen. Why are you sleeping still? Get up. It means the dawn of the Gurudev’s darśan, the dawn of the Gurudev’s satsaṅg, the dawn of the Gurudev’s wisdom, the dawn of the Gurudev’s presence, the dawn of the satsaṅg. And sahelya means our indriyas, our jñānendriyas and karmendriyas. Our jñānendriyas are sleeping. Our ears are not aware of spirituality. But when there is something like stupid singing, you say, "Oh, that’s nice." You have closed your ears to divine wisdom and peace. You come to the airport and sit in the lounge or waiting room. A big television is disturbing, either this or that, loud. After a long journey, you need peace. You just want to sit and relax, but there is this television, that television. You come to the aeroplane, and the announcements—safety, security—are amidst a lot of noise and advertising. This is restlessness. And people say, "Wow, this is good," because they have closed their ears. They are sleeping; their jñānendriyas are sleeping in ignorance. So, oh my surta. Surta means my inner attention, intention, my concentration. Saheṅya is my vṛttis, my thoughts, and my indriyas. Wake up, because you are sleeping in the sleep of ignorance. So you are telling your Jñānendriyas, your vṛttis: the dawn has risen. So Devījī, Bhajan: the dawn has come, night has gone. Wake, my children, wake. Sitting in the āsana of meditation, gazing at the lotus feet of my guru. This means: wake up! Which dawn has arrived? The inner knowledge. Human life is that dawn. So Mahāprabhujī says: Mane to mane bhānodaya gayī sabarāt. In me, for me, the sun has risen. Udaya means rise, and bhanu is the sun. The sun has risen. Bhānaprakāśya: the light has come, the sunlight. That means the knowledge, the light of knowledge. Gayī sabrāt: my whole night is gone. The night of suffering in different creatures' forms, the night of ignorance. Now that night is gone. I am awakened. Awakened means now I know what is God, what is love, what is humanity, what is ahiṃsā, what is compassion, and so on. All is good. You come out and you say, "Oh, when you are in darkness, you don’t see anything." All you know is something when you hit your head. I am not born to die. I am not born to die. Sahelya sūti jagoye, bhayoparbha... bhayoparbha... mahāre saheliyā sūtī jagoye. Now what happened? Now I got the light of the Parabrahman. Parabrahma prakāśa. Now, in my chinakas, in my meditation, Parabrahma prakāśa. That is not like this physical light. That is a different light. This physical light is different from the spiritual light. The result: all my doubts, bhrama, and karma—all my karmas—are destroyed. Now I know that I will not be born again. It also means that I will not die. Oh, my dear ones, why are you sleeping? Get up. The dawn has risen. It means human life has begun now. Come. You have slept many, many lives. This Jīva slept so many lives. Now, human life is not for that. We are only sleeping, eating, and driving. Eating, sleeping, and creating children—animals are also very active. Oh man, if you are only doing this, then how much difference is there? Very little difference. Now, akhaṇḍ means unbreakable, continuous, everlasting. Akhaṇḍ. Khaṇḍ means broken; akhaṇḍ means it is not broken. Something that is a little broken is khaṇḍitohavya; it is broken. So it is unbreakable, everlasting. Akhaṇḍ jyot. And jyot means the light. When we make a jyoti with the coconut, or like in a big temple we have this light, this big fire for ceremony—that is called jyoti. So, akhaṇḍa jyot: I have such a big light. Akhanda jyot, ujiala: the light of the Akhaṇḍa Jyot. Ujiala means light. And what happened? The locks of my heart are opened. Ghaṭ is the heart, and it was locked. "I like only him, not this one. I don’t like this, I don’t like that. They are bad, these are bad." You know, you are completely imprisoned in your heart with your hate, jealousy, anger, this and that. But when your heart is now opened, the lock is opened because of the divine light. "Door of my heart, open wide I keep for thee." But when He comes, He will not knock all the time if you are sleeping, you know. When He is knocking and somebody is at home, it becomes monotone. God said, "Okay, I have no time." God also has no time. He is nervous on the special days, on His incarnation day, Navarātri. He is so busy. Everyone is calling Rāma in America, in Africa, in India, in Europe, in Asia, everywhere. On Christmas Day, near the Christmas tree, in the evening time, it is prayer time. After sunset, it is Christmas celebration. Now, at Christmas, maybe He has to come to all the billions of trees and put some presents and this and that. My God, poor Jesus is so tired and stressed that He takes a break now; that is why we have Christmas holidays, five or ten days. You know, so that He can also, again, go to the beach and offer. It was a marathon. But then He said, "But it is okay, my children are happy, all got a present." So Kṛṣṇa, or all, are the same. So, O my friend, the locks of my heart are open. Now, you know, I cannot digest what I want to tell you. I must tell you my happiness. So a pure heart, an open heart, and happiness then tell you, "Oh, I am happy and decent." But a tricky person, a bad person, observing, and inside his heart is closing, and in the negative intellect, creating some plan on how to make a disruption. That is negative. Their heart is like a dry plum or a dry date. That also is not right. And the heart of the bhakta is open like a sunflower. And the sunflower moves where Gurudev is going, or where the light is going, where God is going. Always go to the positive view, not to the negative view. So, I must tell my old friends, please come and join, enjoy. Śakimāī mā varaṇe jā, śakimāī mā varaṇe jā, saheliyā sūtī jāgoye, bhaiyop, saheliyā sūtī jāgoye. Now, what happened? Endless, countless, kalā—the siddhis awoke in me, qualities awoke in me, kriyās awoke in me, experiences awoke in me. Ananta, ananta, Hari ananta, ananta Hari kathā. God is endless, and the glory of God is endless. And that also awakens within us endless duty, joy, and happiness. No doubt. When you have this, and then you have one little doubt, you have destroyed everything. A spiritual person should not have doubts on his path, on his friends, Gurudev, or bhaktas, and the like, and also not in the world. You have, but you have caution. You know, there is a coming very nice, beautiful, red-bellied snake from Australia. And you know, you have doubt that it can bite. You do not want that. Okay, but you put your doubt out. But keep the distance without touching it, okay? So that is a safety distance. Then you do not create negative karma. But as soon as you put the negative thoughts—"Yeah, this is not good, and that could be like this, and that one this is, and this one this is. He is like that, and she is like that, and this and this"—my God, that means you are constantly squeezing your heart, and the soul inside is suffering, cannot breathe. So when you go to Kusaṅga, where people are talking negatively, then you say, "Oh God, the atmosphere was so stinky. I could not breathe. I had to go outside to relax." No? Sometimes. Do you feel that? And when you go, oh, that was such a happy atmosphere. Relax. Some people like a different atmosphere. Some people go and dance in some club. There is a lot of smoke, a lot of alcohol, and a lot of this. And they are happy there, okay? They are happy there. When they come to our satsaṅg and sit there, they go, "God, where am I? Is it boring? I must sit peacefully. I do not like to sit. Hey, hey, move. Let us go. Hey." My God, this is tension. Tension will bring you very early into the pension. And after the pension, into the grave. Mare anantakāla prakāśī. Kāla means like the unfoldment of consciousness. Every day, the moon is growing. This is a kalā. Similarly, there is a ṣoḍaśa kalā. And the Ṣoḍaśa Kalā, Pūrṇa Puruṣa—these are the sixteen siddhis. That is called Puruṣottama. Like Kṛṣṇa, Ṣoḍaśa Kalā. Mahāprabhujī at Solā Kalā, Devapurījī, could go through any element—a big, big rock, 40 meters high and 50, 60 meters wide. And he just walked, and it was just like a disappeared light inside, and he walked out the other side. And if we walk, then we say, "But you see, I told everybody, 'I cannot follow you.'" I said, "Lord, I will follow everywhere, but I will blindly follow through rock." Then he said, "Yes, that is a doubt. Just go, then think that you are not walking. Then I have opened for you the door. Just you will go through." I said, "Next time." Now I realized, or I met, I realized, I recognized, or I met Avināśī. Avināśī means never die, the immortal one. Avināśī. Jiskā koī nāś nahīṁ hotā hai. No one can destroy. Jise na śastra kate, na agni jalāwe, budhave, na pānī, na mṛtyu umithāwe. No fire can burn, no weapons can destroy, water cannot destroy, and death cannot take away. I am Avināśī. And that, when you wake up in the dawn of the satsaṅg and morning, then, otherwise, darkness. Sakhī, mahimā varanī na jāta. Now he is telling his friends again, Sakhī. Sakhī means the sahilya. Sakhī is again the friend. Sahilya is friend, Sakhī is one. And who is this Sakhī? That Sakhī is my sūrtā. What is a sūtra? That which is observing and carrying me in every place. That is my surta. Then surta, surta vaha jahiye. O my surta, go there where the satsaṅg is, where God is. O my surta, do not go in the thorny bush. You will be stuck in that negativity. And this thorn will torture you, and you will suffer long, long. That is kuśaṅga; one kuśaṅga word is going like a thorn in you. And this thorn is like a hook. And there are some thorns which are hooked like this, like wires, you know. You catch the wire, now you cannot open. So this is that negative blackmailing and talking, that you are stuck in such a thorn, you cannot come out. And when you try to come out, they are so irritating again. Therefore, lucky are they who feel free now, śūrta. So, Sakhi, Varnina Jat: O my Sakhi, O my friend, I cannot describe, it is indescribable, my happiness and joy. You know, this kind of letter, what is written now, I read it, but it is... This is not for normal people who are reading this, only for those who are what you call the linguists. So this we have to remove and write it as normal. For people, it is difficult to read. Now, here the pronunciation has gone bad. Everyone does not know this. So just write a different letter, an English alphabet: Hari Om. Or you can write it as "Gai." Then it is Śakti, Māhima, Varṇi, Nāḍī. Oh my friend, I cannot explain this. Śrī Pūjā Dev Purī Sabhāgavana Śrī Dīpā Kahe Mana Mana. Śrī Pūjā Dev Sabhāgavana Śrī Dīpā Kahe Mana Mana. Gāyorī Merohā, Gāyorī Merohā, Sahelyā Sūtī Jagoye Bhaya, Sahelyā Sūtī Jagoye Bhaya. Śrī Pūjya Dev Purīṣa Bhagavān Mahā Prabhujī said, "The universally worshipped, our worshipped Gurudev, Śrī Dev Purīṣa Bhagavān Bhagavān, the God." Śrī Dīpa Kahe Man Manā: Mahā Prabhujī said, "I like him. I like my Gurudev. I love my Gurudev." I accept that he gave me all these experiences, "Gāyorī Maro Hāth," because he holds my hand and leads me to all these experiences. Therefore, oh my indriyas, get up. Therefore, then Mahāprabhujī said, "Oh, now he tells his..." Therefore, he tells again to their Sahaja Yama. Sajan means a good one, a positive one. We will say this is a Sajan person, this is a very positive, good person. He is pure-hearted, he has no doubts. For him, gold and stone are equal, diamond and stone are equal. Bhagavān Kṛṣṇa said, "O Arjuna, bhakti is dear to me, for those who have the same neutral feelings towards enemies and friends, and towards name and fame." That very avarabhrati is there. That is it. And we are always going up and down, up and down, you know. That is it. So, Mahāprabhujī said, "Oh, my dear friend, it is so dear to me, the satsaṅg always. If someone will ask," Mahāprabhujī said, "Gurudev, what is most dear to you, or what would you like mostly? Satsaṅg." That is all. What has been spoken and heard, I am telling, and smṛti, what you will remember, and now you will tell further to the people. So, I do not know how you will tell my lecture. Yeah, Swāmījī spoke something that, yes, Sahilya is girlfriends, and this. No? That is your smṛti at home. But that time and now also, when you have an examination in university or school or college, then whatever you learn from your teacher and you read, now it is in your brain. You have to put all things away, even your mobiles and this, for making examination. Now, your smṛti, your memory, will help you there. No instrument will help. Therefore, in mathematical calculation, do not make yourself dependent on the calculator. Okay? So, Śruti or Smṛti gave Cāro Vedakathāṅg, and all the four Vedas. They are saying the glory of this satsaṅg. Now here, Charo should be C-H-A-R-O. I was reading here kharo, and kharo means bitter, salty. But Gajananda will be very angry when I tell him. He said, "It cost me such a long time to put all this together." Vajrānanda Gajānanda, okay. When Hari Gurujī was singing so nicely, each of my hairs, all of my hair, was standing. And Guruji was sitting straight like this, and he has his Tānpurā, and his Tānpurā was standing like this. All people always used to hold, but Guruji was balancing. "Sukhbhag kuṇḍasvarag nai durlabh, durlabh hai sattva saṅg." It was so beautiful, this picture, when I... and then you see in his bhajan book, "Durlabh hai sattva saṅg." Happiness comes out. The artist has happiness. You see, all—it does not matter which singer you are, rock and roll or whatever it is, it does not matter—but they are, out of happiness, they are showing you. Maybe different movements, but the joy, the happiness. At that time, the ātmā is happy. Not the cause, oh yeah. Palakam a bhanga bolo, oh yeah. Sādhanā valī lā, yes. Ah, sadai sādhanā valī lā, sadai sādhanā saṅg. Deep Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Gurujī said, "Sukha, happiness. Svarga is heaven. Veṅkuṇḍ is where God Viṣṇu is residing. Sukha, vencund, swarga nahī durlabh." And heaven, this is not impossible. But what is impossible? In this Kali Yuga, it is satsaṅg. To come to heaven is easier. To Veṅkuṇḍ is easier. To have all these properties is easier. But satsaṅg—and that is why, you know, how many people are moving here? No one could see that. That is satsaṅg. And when we are now, there is satsaṅg sitting, a few people, but we will say tomorrow that movie star is coming. Oh my God, the whole street will be no place to walk. That is it. So now in Kali Yuga, the other satsaṅg, the Kushaṅga, in Kali Yuga is accepted. Satsaṅg is not accepted because more are the asurivṛttis now. Of course, the movie stars, they are very positive. They are very good people. There is nothing to say. They are workers. They are workers. They are working. They are paid. So they are paid to move like this or like that, or go like this or move like this. And when you do not do it once like that and like this, they say no. Again, once more. Then he will say, "Yes. No." Again, once more. No, it was good, but your movement start was like that. Again, this comes. So, you know, to make it a half-minute, ten-second movement, sometimes you need five hours of hard work. So they always have to do like this. Then they are standing in the mirror and looking like this. Yes. And the Indian dance, you know, how they move, that is not easy. Like this, your neck is moving like that. That is it. So they are good, they work, but I am saying that it is interesting to see for which subject people go where and how. So, sukha, vaikuṇṭha, svarga, nirvāṇa, duḥkha—happiness, svarga, and vaikuṇṭha—these are all not impossible. Rājapāta or Gīnata Khajānā: your kingdom, your position, and Gīnata Khajānā, countless wealth of yours, so much money you have, you cannot count it. The billionaires or the richest person in the world, every evening he will sit and count his money, you know. You cannot count, even in one year, that much money you have. Raj, your kingdom, like you are a minister, or the president, or anything. Raj, part, your position. Anginad khajana, uncountable your wealth. Anginad khajana, hoi palakme bhang: within no time, destroys. How you are sleeping? Any are set the same summer car scene. I am not to run a pre-op in a gun sets. I am car scene. I am not to run a pre-op in needs is above me days at the same. This a need is above me days key to hold the deal. I am below. Satsaṅg, saṅkāśīna māthurā. Even in Kāśī, in Banāras, Mathurā is where Kṛṣṇa’s birthplace is. Nahi, Priyag nahi, Gaṅgā. Neither the Hilabad, the Priyaga, nor the Gaṅgās. Satsaṅg is more than that. Satsaṅg, saṁkathana, māturanaya, priyāgīnaya, Gaṅgā. Necha sabhāvamite satsaṅgase. The narrow thinking, narrow thinking with the conflicts, that kind of your habits will be cured or removed through the satsaṅg. You will begin to think divine, wise, high thoughts. Like what? A little worm can become one day a wasp or a butterfly. Similarly, it is a satsaṅg which can levitate us and bring us. Ayyava Deva Puriṣa Masta Fakira Malaka Hare Hare Masta Fakira Malaka Svāmī Dīpa Kaika Taka Gāvu Svāmī Dīpa. My Lord, Satguru Śrī Devpurījī, must Fakīr Malāṅg. He is the divine Fakīr. He is divine, happy, always. Swami Deep said, "How much can I explain to you the glory of the satsaṅg? The glory of the satsaṅg is endless." Aṣṭāṅga means that the ocean, the big ocean, and someone asks you, "Can you dive and see how deep it is?" It is so deep that you cannot reach it, the very deep part of the ocean. Similarly, this wisdom, this knowledge, we cannot measure with kilometers, centimeters, or kilograms. It is endless. That is the glory of satsaṅg. And that is why it is said, they are rare who will come there. Others will remain where they are.
