Śrīddhi, Pūṣṭi, Bhagavān Kī, Devī, Svara, Mahādeva Kī, Dharma Samrāṭ, Satguru Svāmī Mādhavaṁ Bhagavān Kī, Satya Sanātana Dharma Kī. Life is that which has life within itself. That life is the life of God. It means that all the time, God is in one's thoughts, in one's heart, in one's awareness, and in one's consciousness. O my mind, O my friend, your life is gone without the name of God. Whatever is left, you should begin now to remember God. Do not think, never think that it is too late. Wherever you have forgotten, begin from there. There was a karmic disturbance, that destiny which always creates the obstacle. But when better karma awoke, then automatically the door of the heart was open for God. And so we have life in our heart. All that we do in the world without God’s name is some obligation or some action, but that will soon disappear. But the name of God, these seeds which we put in the field of our consciousness, will remain forever and ever. So it should go deep into our heart. Many people think mantra is not important. Ask them, did you realize this, that it is not necessary? Did you go to the universe and find out? With which authority are you saying mantra is not important? If mantra is not important, then tell him, why do you speak? Do not speak. Speaking is not important. Go everywhere. So this is that, you know, I tell sometimes, because it is said in India, they are saying something different, a different thought came. So it is said, the dog does not eat grass, and he does not let the cow eat the grass. So this is the condition of the people who think we do not need a mantra. In worldly rules, you can say, "I do not need a passport." Of course, from here to Brno. But if you go from here to Slovakia, they will ask, "Where is your passport?" Go to India. Where is your passport? Go to Japan. Where is your passport? Go to China, America, everywhere. You cannot enter there. Similarly, without the mantra, you cannot enter any part of the universe, and you are nowhere. You know what is nowhere? No one’s land, between two countries. Did you experience some time? You had some problems? Yes or no? Who had? Who had a problem between two borders? Did you experience no-man’s land? Yes, I also. I was coming from England to Vienna, and I did not have a visa. So I sat in the ferry, England to France, and they said, "Passport." I said, "This is a visa. I do not know what is a visa." India is so wide, and we had at that time no law of any evidence, of any paper, from Calcutta to Kashmir and from the Himalayas to Gujarat and so on. So I said, "I have a passport." He said, "But you do not have a visa." I said, "This is an England visa. It is for you too?" He said, "No, no... no." So they took me. Overnight I stayed with them. The next day, they put me again in that ferry to England. England said, "We cannot accept you because we stepped out." They put me in the ferry. The ferry again took me to France. They said, "No, you cannot." They put me again in the ferry. No money, no ticket. Ferry said, "We will not take him." But the ferry began to start. They took us to the England border. They said, "Oh God, again he is here." We told you, you have no visa. I said, then give it to me. So they put me again at the police. And then, in the morning, they took me for breakfast on the ferry. Not on the ferry, but near the Kālī on the mainland. And they said, "Only two toasts, cheese, one chai." And I did not eat for two days. So I ate bread, and the cheese was the Holland cheese. You know what is that they call Holland cheese, with the wax? It does not matter. It was the first time in my life I saw what cheese is, and I put it in my mouth, and I vomited. Why do they give me soap? Oh, God. Emmental. Well, one cup of tea, and sugar. So there was a spoon and some salt. So I thought this is sugar. And I put it in my tea, and it became salty. So I told him, "Sir, mistakenly I took the sugar." This is no order, only one cup. Then they took me again to the police station. Then they called some organization which helps lost people or those who have certain problems. So they came, they interviewed with the police: "What are the problems?" And said, "Well, he has no visa and he has no money." So they said, "Okay." So they took my passport, and they took the taxi, and they went to London, and they made a visa for France and for everywhere and for England again, and they came back, and they gave me some money. And they said, "You can have a hotel tonight." I said, I am comfortable here too. There are two, three people in the room. Nice, warm. And the next day, they brought me to the ferry. And the passport controller says, "I do not know," in French language. I said again, again he came, so that was no one’s land. So that is why French is good, people are good, but I do not like neither language, but okay, that is a different thing. But now I come to know. The French people, they are very good, our French disciples. So, this happens to the soul who got a human life but did not have this proper document now of mantra, God’s name, and spirituality. So, human life is very rare. Oh, my mind, now you should begin, at least. All your life is gone without spirituality. God is God. For everyone who believes in such a God, that is God. That is the right God. So you believe in God, that is the right God. Differences are in our mind, so our richness is our mantra. Each mantra which goes through our heart, through our mouth, through our awareness, consciousness, etc., is like you deposit money in the bank. So there was a story Gurujī told: when a king asks any sādhus or any wise person who comes, he asks them a certain question. So he used to ask a question: "What is that?" King says. What is here is not there, what is there is not here, and what is not here and also not there, and what is here, have and there also. So one sādhu answered, "Do you want theoretically or practically?" So the king said, "Practical." That is the best. So then he said, "Please bring four people: one beggar and a hunter." Only he survived to give some food to his children, kill animals, and bring the meat. So in our country, the poorest ones are the hunters. Or someone is hunting out of joy, but hiding. Then bring one man, who is a very rich one. But he is very nice. Do not give one single crown. Any money to build the society which is doing for the volunteer, humanitarian, other creatures, etc. No, he does not want to give anything. And bring the second one. Who is a businessman, has a lot of money, and is giving a lot of money for donations. And the fourth one brought a very poor sādhu. He has nothing here, but he is doing good things. God’s name mantra. So there, after he is passed away, he will have the richest life. He will get high positions. Liberation. So we have here, so we should help, and if we do not have, we shall at least give them the name of God, the support of God. So whatever we do, definitely it comes back to us. This is one beautiful story of Gurujī. He told it. And the second story also Gurujī was telling, how is the fact, Master? Many are saying, "I am a guru." And when someone tells you, "Gurujī," oh, you say, "Oh, I am Gurujī." Well, yeah, master. But we also have a housemaster. You know, a housemaster also? The chimney master. So there are many, many masters. It is only different in the language. But what is the real master? So this was the question. So one Swāmījī came and went to the same king. And the king was trying to remove all blind belief. So the Swamījī, the sādhu, came to the king’s palace, and he began to give satsaṅgs. He liked it very much. So he said, "Please stay one day more, please stay one day more." And then one day he asks him a question, "Swamiji, I have one problem." I do not know what to do. So he said, "You are king, you do not know what to do?" He said, "Yes, on the worldly level, I can do what I want. But in my ethical principles, I cannot." So he said, "What is the problem?" He said, "There came some magician, some master called magician." And he said, "I will read the Holy Book for 18 days, 21 days." So the king asked him, "What will happen after 18 days? You will get mokṣa." King said, "I was so happy. In 18 days, I have mokṣa." So every day I was celebrating. Now, on the 18th day, I will have Mokṣa. So after 18 days, that man came who was reading the holy book. He said to the king, "King, I finished my reading of the holy book in your name, and whatever you can give me." He said, "The book is not finished." Yes, finished? No. So he said, "How do you know I did not get mokṣa yet?" So, put him in the prison. Day and night, read the book. On that day, when I will be liberated. He will be liberated, but I am sorry for him. And I am sorry for me, and I will be sorry for others. Such a guru. Master said, "Do you want a practical answer or a theoretical one?" Master, practical. So then call him here. So the king immediately ordered a man to be brought. He came. He was making praṇām to Swāmījī. With respect, he gave him a place. And in prison also, he had a very respectful place. So what is the problem? The problem is this: the king said he told me, "In 21 days of reading this holy book, I will get mokṣa." But I did not get it. Even I did not get mokṣa. From the position of the king, to be a king is not easy. It is not easy. To be a prime minister of the country is not easy. Because every citizen has some wish. So, Swamiji asked that other holy book reader, you can say the priest or pundit, "So, did you say that he will get mokṣa?" He said, "Yes, but why did not Mokṣa come?" Now, what is your wish? He said, "I wish for my Mokṣa, Gurujī. Now I have had your darśan. I will definitely get Mokṣa from here. I did not see my children for 10 years, okay." So the master said to the king, "King, please do not mind, because you want to know practically. So you have to play a theater." "Yes, Gurudeva, I will do." So he said to this pillar, "Tie with the rope, this bandit." So they did it, and then he said to the soldiers, "Tie the king to this pillar." So both are tied. Now, Panditjī asks the priest, "Can you open the bread of the king?" Please come and free him. He says, "Guru Dev, I am also bound." How can I open his diet? Okay. You are the king. You are the mighty. Please, can you, this poor priest, liberate from here, open his ropes? Say, Guru Dev. I am in bandhan. I have died. I am in bandhan. How can another one make nirbandhan? How can I untie others? So he was getting something for his family and for living. So give him something and let go of him. So the blind lead the blind. So such people become a guru. They do not remember their guru. They do not repeat mantra, and they tell others, "You do not need mantra, you just do meditation." What I am telling such people is misguiding. So when someone gives you the name of God, it is not misguiding. God is God. That is it. If not good, then be sure it will not happen bad. Therefore, mantra is very important. If you have no time, then Gurujī said one day, "Rām nām lenī se hoī pāp kā nāś, jese āvat jāvat raste me ugin na ghās." Clear? Rām nām lene se ho jā pāp kā nāś. While repeating the name of God or Rāma, ho jā pāp. Like when you walk, come and go on the same path, the grass does not grow, it becomes a footpath. You were not stopping there. You were just coming and going, so similarly, repeating God’s name while working, while walking. Whenever you can, repeat mentally your mantra, and with a mālā also, and in meditation. So spirituality means not fanaticism. Spirituality is that positive thing. We should wish for all good and happiness. No one should suffer. No one should be unhappy. No children should lose their parents. No woman should become a widow because her husband died in the war. Many, many things. This is a positive path. It does not matter who is from which country; we send them all the best wishes, and this will come back to us also. That is the sense of human life, very, very important. So it is finished, no? The time is finished. Someone was showing me a dead light. He said, "Swāmījī, stop." Aha, so 35 minutes I was talking. So, do not get confused. Now, anybody said you, "I will give you mantra." Now, somebody is doing foot massage, and this, Āyurveda gives you mantras. And that you lie down, I will do this mantra, and you will be healed. If it is so easy, we can close the hospitals. It is not so easy, is it? Good. Someone tries. Good mantra is better than somebody beating you, but cannot be your master. Did you master it? Did your Gurudeva give you something? How long did you serve your Gurudeva? It is not so easy, so it depends. You see, it is in everyone’s destiny. With closed eyes, I have a tennis ball, and I throw now. Now, on whose head or hands it will come, it is their luck. Do not say, "Swamiji, give me." And they say, "Look, he gives only to her, him, or her." So I close my eyes, and I throw like this. So who is the luckiest one? Who is the fortunate one? Whose destiny is that? This is one thing. So, where does this Guru Kṛpā come from? It is your destiny that will take it, but also when the sādhanā is given by Gurudev, it is also given to you with the same power. But if you follow, and what in the past happened, what negative energy is there, but every touch from human to human, you get negative energy. So that is one reason why we do not shake hands, from a hygienic viewpoint. Also, hygienically, you do not shake hands. When you go to the operation theater, even if you are a doctor or surgeon, they have gloves. But doctor, doctor, even they will not shake hands there. They will touch the elbow, or one wants to give the other hand, then the doctor gives him the elbow. You know how much security there is against the bacteria. So, shake hands. We get a lot of bacteria. And you do not know what kind of energy this person has. And you do not know where this hand was before. And this comes on your hand, and your hand goes here. And here, now you get infection of eyes. Therefore, it is like this. So the entire Eastern, they all do like this. And when you go in the church, and they have this, what you call the prayer, the ceremony, then the priest and the helpers, they also go like this. No? Yes, but some people gave a negative idea. We can only fold hands to God, so you are not God. So that is why we give you second? This is wrong. God is in everyone, so we see God in everyone. You know, in some parts of Austria or Germany, they greet each other, "Guru Scott." As far as they understand, I greet in you God. So when you say, "This Guru is God," and then after you say, "I do not fold hands, God is somebody else," so either you lie, or you do not know, or you are manipulated. So what is the reality? That is important. Therefore, folded hands symbolically: this is you, and this is me; we are together in my heart. I greet you, I bow down to you. If you go to Japan, you know they come like this. You know that they come here like this. All the eastern parts, it was the same in China. But for the last some time, they have been too busy. They do not have time to fold their hands. Because they work with their hands, God made the world. The rest, China. So, and everyone is talking, "God is in my heart." Then, where is the problem? The problem is in people’s mind: their pride, their ego, their ignorance. They do not accept. So, it is very important to understand that God is everywhere. So, when we shake the hand, there are two things. Protection from the bacteria, and humbleness, and spirituality. So, we shall learn this. Otherwise, that energy goes to you. Many people, you do not know what kind of thoughts they have. And when you marry, then you have the energy of your husband and the husband of your wife. Okay, you will master. Hey, plastic, do not make noise. But if you often get reversed, how much energy do you have? You have no more hope to come up. That is why, so, how many impurities, vibrations, wrong energies you have got in your body, even while touching. That is it. So understand, there are many, many people who do not give a handshake. Did you ever shake hands with a nurse? I mean, in church, none, none. Do you shake hands with the nuns, unless they do not have this dress? Yeah, I was in Barcelona long ago, and you were with us some, the World Religious Parliament Conference was. So we went to a monastery, and they are, who is living in the monastery, the nuns and some priests, and we all respectfully greeted them, everything. And I also, because I knew they are very religious and they are very serious. And then after three days, I was walking on the beach. And they were both sitting in swimming dresses on the beach. I was looking again and again; it cannot be that priest. And so, okay, it is difficult to know Indian eyes. Then Swāmī Jasrāj Purī met Dr. Narendra in Bangkok or Bangalore. And now, Janiśwar Purī met Dr. Nagendra in Delhi. Both looked the same, and he said, "Oh, yes, yes..." Nice, you were in Bangalore, and so, and he said, "No, I was not there." He said, "Yes, yes..." Okay, so how would you sit down, please? And he said, "No, sometimes it is difficult to realize." Last year, I shaved my head. And when I crossed the Delhi border and entered Rajasthan, the escort changed. And they saw my car, and they were escorting. After five kilometers, the inspector in the car of escort says, "Something is wrong." We are escorting the wrong person. Can you go and ask what his name is? Because our Swamiji has long hair and a beard. So you come and ask, "What is your name, sir?" I looked at him. He said, "My inspector asks." I said, "Swami Maheshwaranand." OK, OK, sir. So I had no beard. No one has seen my picture without a beard, so it can happen. So in that conference, there was one organization from the Sikh people, and they were giving lunch free to anyone who comes. So every day, about 20,000 people were eating. From Barcelona, also they said, "Oh, there is some Indian and giving free." Food, and it is so tasty food. And so I see someone in the jeans, and three of them, and two nuns, they were all sitting, and I was sitting somewhere. And I was served in one place, and I am looking at them, and they are looking at me. I said, "Oh, you are from a monastery." He said, "Yes. So changing is not good." So there they can shake hands, but in other places, not. So, it is like that. But in reality, in any spiritual holy place, they greet like this. Of course, the priest to priest. Swami to Swami, they also hug themselves. It is okay. So there are certain energies, so your mantra is a protection, and you have to clean your vṛttis. It is called kāma, krodha, mada, lobha, moha, and ahaṁkāra. These are the six dangerous crocodiles. One is a crocodile. One is a hyena. One is a wolf. One is a jackal. And one is a night bed. Who is hanging all the time? Why is he hanging so much? Because in a past life, you did not practice Śīrṣāsana. So one thing is sure: if you practice head standing, in the next life, you will not become a Freda Mouse or what they call the Batman. And who sleeps in the satsaṅg becomes python. So kāma, krodha, mada, lobha, moha, and ahaṁkāra, so this kind of nature. So our suffering is our kāma. And if not, then it is krodha. Then, mother, I did it. Kāma, krodha, mada, lobha. Greed, greed. Moha, attachment. And ahaṅkāra. What is ahaṅkāra, Gajalani? Igor. My God, do not tell in Hungary. The Igor will be very angry. So these are the big doors where immense negative energy comes to us. Therefore, purity. So purity is inner purity. In the British thoughts, do not be angry. When you have anger, then everything is destroyed again. So mantra is our path, the name of God. It does not cost you money. Payo jī, maine Rām ratan dhan pāyoṅ. Lākh dī mere sata pākar apanāyoṅ. Kyoṅ jī, maine Rām ratan? Kyoṅ jī, maine janam kī pūjī pāyī, janam janam kī pāyī, sabhī khāyoṅ.
