Now, understand this, all residents of India. It brings us back to awareness; that is called the mind. That is why the mind should never be a friend. The mind is like a messenger who takes a piece of paper from one office to another and brings the other file back. That is why it is said, "Man marā na mamatā marī." Your mind is not being controlled. Why? Because you have love, and love is the reason for bondage. It is the cause of our sorrows. What is happening now is because of our farmers. They have said that what has happened in our country, how much greed people have. If all this is distributed back to our people—where is the money, outside or inside?—then our country can be the same golden bird. People say that the British have looted everything from here and taken it away. But I say that more than the British, the greedy people here are looting and looting and sending it out. The claim to bring it back is made by our good countrymen. They are doing it. And it is possible that, at least, we should stop it so that it does not go anywhere else. It has gone; it has gone. Now it is being saved, so let us try to save it. "Man marā na mamatā marī, aur mar mar gayā śarīr, aisā tṛṣṇā na marī." "Āśā, will I get it? Will I get it? Oh, will I get it?" This is the fire, this is the fire, it is burning inside. "Āśā tṛṣṇā na marī," said Dās Kabīr. "Man marā na mamatā marī, mar mar gayā śarīr, Āśā, Tṛṣṇā, Nāhamarī," said Dās Kabīr. This same love, āśā, tṛṣṇā, greed is the enemy of the human race. The one who has good qualities in the human being, those qualities are vanishing. It is going to the sublime state. So, through this mind, the intelligence of the mind, and the consciousness of the mind, we will tell you more about it tomorrow. So, I was speaking in Hindi, and I was speaking about the present situation of the people—humans around the world, and of course in India. I put the question, as well as my opinion, on the present situation in India and the present situation in other parts of the world. After this, all the problem is there in the education. In the whole world, education has changed. As I used to say always, the best education you can have is in the lap of your parents. The education, what we call the saṃskāras, what we call the ethical principles, the spiritual principles to educate your children—things which happen around the world with the men or with the women—this all is because the education is missing. After the education from the parents, the school education is changed entirely. Not only in India, but you will see in the whole world, the education has changed now, more or less. From the primary school or the nursery school, kindergarten, till the university, all what you learn is for your stomach, that’s all, to feed your this little stomach. And this stomach has no end. And we are putting in, and we are feeding and feeding. There is no end, doubt at all. "Ḍalte ro, to khalī hai, bhug mṛti nahī hai." The education which makes the human intellect, human searching, human desires, longing, struggling, etc.—contentment. "Jab āy santosh dhan, sab dhan dhol samān." Gajadhan, you may have thousands of elephants. Bajdhan, may you have the golden birds. Or Ratandan Khan, may you have the diamonds and precious stones, mines. That is nothing at all. "Jab āy santoshan," but when you will get the wealth of the contentment, certification, then all other wealth is for you like dust. But that we learn from our parents, at home, from our school teachers, and from our religious teachers. Guilty are we all. We are all guilty. And guilty are they who are greedy. Mahatma Gandhi said, "Mother Earth has enough for everyone’s need, but not for everyone’s greed." Greed is endless. Greed is that kind of pot. You fill in, and everything goes out, drips out. I am again talking in Hindi. In the morning, the king went out of his palace and was roaming in the garden. In the meantime, a beggar came. He had a wooden stick in his hand. He was 60-70 years old, maybe 80 years old. Slowly, a utensil came in his hand. He said to the king, "I have been hungry for 10 days. I want to eat something. Give me some food, my king." The king looked at him and thought, "In my kingdom? A beggar? Where are you coming from? Where do you live?" "I live in your court, under your fort. It’s been 15 days, and no one gave me food." The Raja was very sad. Raja said, "I will feed you with my own hands." He brought rice and bread. The beggar said, "Just put it in my utensils." That’s all you need. "No, I will give you money." "That first, fill my stomach." Whatever the king puts in the vessel of the beggar, it disappears from the vessel. Whatever he puts—the king puts diamonds, stones, everything—but when it goes in the vessel of the beggar, it disappears, it disappears. The king got scared. "What is this?" The king said to the beggar, "Brother, what is this vessel made of? Whatever I put inside, it all disappears." Then the beggar says, "O King, the utensil of the beggar is made of the mind of a greedy person." So the greedy person’s mind is never satisfied. Then God appeared and said, "O King, I give you blessings. There is no beggar in your kingdom." So, therefore, the education—I told the story—that whatever you give in the pot of the beggar, it disappears. So the education in the human consciousness, again, it is at a high time that we have to turn back to our own country, our own ancient cultures. As much as we go to technology, we are destroying more and more. A few days ago, the media people asked me, "Swamiji, how can it be possible in this world to create peace?" I said, "Media can do. How long time in one week can media create peace in the whole world? If media will send the correct and good message. 'Vasudhaiva Kuṭumbakam,' the whole world is my family." So on one side, the media puts out such a message that everyone is confused, and on the other side, they are searching for how to bring peace. Education, śikṣā, education is very important. So, what is the man? What are the senses? What is the intellect? I spoke a little bit, which I told you many times, and the rest tomorrow again. Satsaṅg hogā. Tomorrow, I will tell you in the satsaṅg. Now, I have to go somewhere to the other program. I... Wish you a very good evening and good rest. You must be very tired today, so after your dinner, don’t hang here and there. Just go and sleep. If you can’t sleep, sit here and meditate. Make your mantras, not gush up in here and there, because I have put. The cameras are in many corners, so I will see who’s gushing up. Śrīmān Nārāyaṇa, Nārāyaṇa,...
