The verse of the Mahāmudrā is by my friend Ānandajī. Gurudeva Kī Jayā. I see wisdom, a brighter you, but a brightness that is thee, Swāmījī, is within. At times it seems all far, but this heart is my heart, it is not. Sometimes I saw, I believe, within you, protecting lives in you. History becomes one since you live within me, protecting the faces of the smart. Tear them apart. The world sleeps within you, protecting things within you. The sound, the very sound, I know is not the thing within me, the thing within me... the thing. Personally, he has been doing this for at least 15, maybe 20 years, and when the guru repeats something so persistently, there must be something in it. I think last week in Strylki, I got the point. Because in school I learned Latin. In school I learned Latin, Latin, Latin. And "person," the German word "Person," comes actually from the Latin personare. Per means through, and sonare means to sound, to make a sound. That means a sound goes through, like a flute. The flute produces a sound, but the flute does not make it; it goes through the flute. So a person is actually someone who doesn't make a sound, but the sound is just going through. And I guess I have to become a person that the divine can just go through. So that God can only flow through me. Náham karatá. Siddhipná magván. Someone else can sing. Yogeshajī is going to sing. You’re going to say something? You want to say something? You’ll say something? Yeah, you’ll start now. Hṛidā Ikāmalajī, do you want to say something? Yes, please. Yeah. I don’t know if there are any birthdays. I mean, we know one, but are there any more? That yogī ṣṭhiti will explain, yes. And also, there’s one request from some of our yoga brothers and sisters. They have a friend who’s not a disciple of Swāmījī in Germany, who has cancer, and today they said will be the last day. Can we also send our prayers in that direction? His name is Thomas, and there is a request from the yoga brothers and sisters. There is a friend of ours who is not a teacher for Swāmījī, but he is very sick. And today is the last day that we can pray for Thomas. Different boundaries, or doing things that you would not normally think you would do. It has some relevance to Gajananajī’s bhajan. I remember very well when Gajānandajī wrote that bhajan and what he was doing at that time. And we all know Gajānandajī so well, and he’s from Hamburg. And I think what he was doing at that time, he’d not done before in Germany, maybe. Because I remember very well when he came to explain the situation, when he started to write the bhajan, he said... At the time, he was driving the tractor and watering the trees, and the tire got stuck. As I remember, the tire of the tractor got stuck, and Gajānandajī couldn’t get it out. Eventually, it came out, as I understood, so the water went out. And the tractor came out, but somehow that was the catalyst from which that incredible bhajan came. I remember when Gajananajī told me that he learned that carrots grow in the ground when he came to Jadan. So I’m sure that driving a tractor and watering the trees wasn’t on the top of Gajanandī’s ideas of what he would do when he went to Holy India to do yoga. But see, you just never know where the inspiration, or when the inspiration, is going to come. Śrī Dignāre Bhagavān.
