Satguru Swāmīmādhavānandībhagavānakīśaṁ Satkṛṣṇānandaharimakīśaṁ. Adoration to our holy lineage. Blessing all the bhaktas. And many blessings to all of our international brothers and sisters, spiritual seekers, spiritual aspirants, and all the practitioners of yoga in daily life. I am very happy to see you today. It is a most beautiful time now. What do most people wish to have in winter? That is a lot of snow. These blessings and greetings are coming to you from Śrī Mahāprabhujī Ashram in Strelka, Czech Republic. We have here one weekend retreat. Many practitioners have arrived, and many are still arriving. Our subject is always yoga. Yoga is a universal principle. The endless universe, Anant Brahmāṇḍ. In Sanskrit we say anant brahmāṇḍ, endless universe. We do not know where its beginning is and where its end is. The approach of the yogīs, the siddhas, or the brahmajñānīs—only they can achieve the level of consciousness to become one without a second. Because they become one with it, but we all have our individual consciousness; we do not have the cosmic consciousness. We will have it, if we will practice. Anant Brahmāṇḍa, or you can say Śūnyākāśa. Anant. Where there is no movement, there is nothing existing. Only space, dark, blue, dark. Everything is like frozen. That is space, and that space is like the mother’s body or like an egg in which there is life. There is consciousness. Similarly, in the anant, there is the pure consciousness, and that is one with the space. No empty space at all, but it is only consciousness which does not occupy the space. Though it is the space and the light within the space. But that light does not occupy the space. Like here is the light from the bulb to me; between is empty space. So this light does not occupy the space. The light becomes one with the space, and so is the eternal consciousness. So is the cosmic consciousness. That is called cetanā. Now, between these two, space and light, or space and consciousness, there is one Śakti which is balancing, harmonizing, and uniting. That Shakti also is not visible: energy, light, and space. Though they are three, there is still emptiness. So that energy is known as yoga māyā or yoga śakti. That is yoga. Now, you can imagine or give your judgment, your opinion, your statement, your declaration: how old is yoga? To which religion belongs that yoga? Only you will realize this when your consciousness becomes Yogamayī. Yogamayī means one with yoga. It is everything. Everything is a play of the energy. It is that energy which can create, which can dissolve. It is that energy which can put everything in movement, though it is not visible. And so that consciousness, eternal consciousness, one without second, one with that energy, one with that space, that is called the body of Śiva. Svayam bhū, that is called; no one has created him. It is he who manifests himself first in the creation of this universe. And so, though there is nothing existing, except energy, that light, and space. Whenever we speak about light, consciousness, enlightenment, that light is not like this light. That light is not like sunlight. Many yoga practitioners make mistakes. They have wrong opinions or expectations that when they close their eyes, they want to see the light. It is no problem. You can see that light within a second, but you have to open your eyes clear. So that light is indescribable. Mahāprabhujī said in one bhajan, "The beauty is indescribable, the light is indescribable, but there is no moon and no sun." That is it. In that consciousness, Śiva. Consciousness, it is said, there must be one thought, but there cannot be a thought without a brain. So there must be feelings, but there cannot be feelings without this five-element body. Then there must be some ego. Or anger, but that cannot be. If there are no senses, there are no relations. Anger towards whom? When there is nothing, also one’s self is not there. But it is said, it must be something like that. I am one, and now I will manifest it, multiply myself, and that is called the first thought of the universe. May you call movements, may you call feelings, may you call awakening, it does not matter what you call it. And in that cosmic light, the first awoke resonance, we think there is no sound in this space. Sound is only in this material world. Or to a certain height of our planet. No. There is a sound. Now, that sound is energy, that is yoga. And that is an embodiment of the Supreme, Brahman. That is Śiva’s body. And so the Nāda, the Rūpa Parabrahma, the sound, the form of the Supreme, is the sound. That awoke, we call yoga. Aum. And after this resonance, aum, everything begins to manifest or create. Numerous stars, planets, solar systems, including our planet, elements, everything, and still it is that yoga māyā, that yoga śakti, that is maintaining everything. Your body, which has five elements, has many thousands or millions of different systems in the body. Everything is harmonized and controlled by that yoga śakti. Even your consciousness and your individual, your jīvātmā, is perfectly harmonized, balanced, and alive through that śakti. That is the highest level of consciousness to realize. Until we realize this, we have to repeat life again and again. It is not in our hands if we want to or not. We are in this play, and we have to play with it. We are part of the cosmic play, and we have to be part of it. You cannot say no. It is not in your will. We are like a wheel of a cycle, and it has many wires on it, rods. And the wheel is turning. Every wire has to turn with it, whether they want to or not. If they break, they will be repaired nicely by the master. So keep strong, that is called a will. Of Chaurasi, sorry, 8.4 million different forms of life on this planet. Other planets, we do not know how it is. There must be life there, but it has a different system, different principles. We are here, creatures. Living, we are water creatures and have the other three elements: earth, air, and fire. We understand only our system. We do not know the other systems. Because when you meditate on this sound, the sound is not targeted on one point. You see the bell in the temple, the bell is hanging, it is round, and when we ring this bell, the entire bell is vibrating, meaning resonating. Sound, but it does not go only one side; it goes everywhere equally. You throw a stone in the water in a beautiful lake, the waves will go round, will create more and more. Similarly, from your being here on this planet. It does not matter where you are. It is going, the vibration round. Everything is turning in this universe through one. That yoga śakti. That is yoga, not asanas, prānāyāmas, relaxation, meditation. This is a way to yoga. That is it. It is very important, because this is given or created by self-realized great souls who were one with the universe. How to come to that point to realize what is yoga, and there you are. So constantly you are sending energy around, constantly. It does not matter which kind of feelings you have. Even pain, unbearable pain, also radiates through and through. No matter can block that. It penetrates through all: water, fire, air, space, rocks, stones, and whatever you think is also going round and round. So at that time, when the OM sound awoke, it was like the entire universe was set in vibration. Everything. Like you are deep sleeping and a small mosquito bites you. Somewhere, suddenly the whole body wakes up, and the entire universe was set in vibration. And with this vibration, the cosmic consciousness departed, divided into the individual consciousness. So now, jīvātmā, the individual self. It is not only on this planet in the form of 8.4 million. But in all planets and stars, and even in this space. They have a different system, like we have our system. They cannot exist, they cannot survive within us, and we cannot survive within them. We have to live this body. Then, you may come to some other planets, other levels of the universe, but through moha, attachment, ego, through feelings, we are bound to this planet. Karmic, good or bad, do not think the karma is bad, also good karma is there, but we are bound to this part of the universe, so our self-realization, our liberation, if you believe or not, is more connected to this planet. Our feelings are there, and that is love. It, feelings, goes that side always, so we have to be born again and again. If you believe or not, that cannot change. If you believe now is night, yes, it is night. But if you do not believe, it is not a night, but still there is a night. Maybe someone is looking at our webcast, and there is morning, dawn rising, or daytime, and they will say. Yes, there is a day, there is no night, but where I am sitting is a night. So, whether you believe it or not, you have to be born again and again. And it is not sure that we will be born again as humans. It is not in our decision; it is not our choice. Only we can pray and practice yoga techniques, practice meditation and mantra, that again we will have such a happy, healthy, good life. That we can again begin our spiritual journey, continue our spiritual journey. So fortunate are they who got a human body, and unlucky, unhappy, unfortunate are they who, though they have a human body, did not have that love, kindness, humbleness, and devotion awaken in their heart towards all. It does not matter. If it is human, animals, or plants. Now, you see this rose must have a good deed sitting above a friend of you, and unbelievable beauties radiating. Everyone likes it. You know, so there is everything that needs love, and it needs love to see that beauty. But in those hearts, that beauty did not awake. They are like blind. Though a beautiful rose is here, they can only imagine; they cannot see. Similarly, those are lucky ones who can feel and understand, "Yes, I am human." What does it mean for me to be human? How happy I am that I have human qualities. And I know my mission is to love every creature, and God realizes. See the light of God in all. That is beautiful. That is the yoga, and that we have to realize one day, and I am sure you will. If you have your consciousness pure, there is no way through some kind of... Yes, please, can you forgive me? Please, I am sorry. I spoke stupid, but I am sorry. Once, someone said they were working with a computer, and something wrong happened, and he said to the computer, "I am sorry," and the computer answered, "We do not understand what sorry is because we have no feeling of sorry." So, truly... See, in human life you have to purify. Never be angry, never be offended, never be sad. And what about you, girls and boys? Something I say, I will not do anymore. That is it. That is your inner picture. Very soon, I can put your picture in front of you, but I am sorry, I will not do it because of the international webcast. Therefore. And it is very important to be near to the Master, that you can feel that energy. You can feel that atmosphere. And that is why we are having a retreat. People are fighting to have a place free. Lucky are they who can feel that energy, the smell, the atmosphere. So if you are lucky enough, your karma allows you, your destiny allows you, and you are blessed, one, you can come near to the master. That is it. Only a bhakta knows what it means to be near. That is it. And if you cannot be physically near, then at least in meditation, imagine. Meditate on the embodiment of Gurudev. Then your vibration, your energy will unite with that energy. Every day, meditation in such a way is upliftment. But many are meditating and angry on the Gurudeva. I do not understand him. I do not know why he did this. No, I do not agree with what he said. But I will practice mantra: Om Gurudev, Gurudev,... Gurudev. My God, Mahāprabhujī, please tell Swāmījī, He should be kind to me. And Mahāprabhujī, what does he answer? You should be kind to him. Then he will be kind to you. What you want, you do it. Do not expect from others. Confucius said, "If you want that people respect you, then first you should respect them." Do not be unhappy that people do not recognize your work. But think in that way, that still your work is not that work which should be recognized. Do not think that people do not know you. Do not be unhappy. But you should know, on the day when you will be that personality, that all should know you without knowing yourself, they will know you. So just be, that is it. Try to be that one. There is one beautiful bhajan. Holi Guruji sent me one cassette from Indian radios, bhajans, and Guruji wrote on that cassette to me, "Dear Mahesh, like a goldsmith or a gardener picks beautiful flowers for the garland," Or a dweller, a goldsmith, puts through these beautiful, what you call them, precious stones for the crowns. Like that, I choose the bhajans for you. Listen to them every day, and really, it was beautiful bhajans I gave to Navisad Chidānand to play on the CD. So, no CD came, no DVD came, what you call the tab, and no Chidānanda came. All disappeared. About 25 to 50 beautiful bhajan cassettes Gurujī did for me disappeared in Novi Sādhu. Well, maybe it had to disappear. In that one of the bhajan, it is said, "Phul tujhī chādanā thā, vo phul meṁ dūndanā payā. O my Lord," The flower which I want to surrender to you, I could not find that flower. Door to door and door to door, I searched for that flower. But I did not find that flower, my Lord, which I want to offer to you. After this, all I know is one thing. Why could not I find it? That was my mistake. And so, to come to the Master and the bhaktas of the satsaṅg and experience the situation, the atmosphere, the smell, the light, There, your spirituality will be on high speed. As much as you withdraw yourself, I will sit at home and I see Swamiji in my webcast. Once I did my dog, my husband is cleaning the kitchen, on the other side is my Coca-Cola, my drink, both legs on the sofa, and I see my Swāmījī, oh my Swāmījī, that is it. That will not give you that. This is for your inspiration, the webcast. Your information, so meditation. Today will be a special meditation. It is indescribable. And in that meditation, I will speak to you now, inwardly. You remember the mudra Mahāprabhujī made, one like this mudra. That means silent. That means do not speak. That means, do not tell me anything, because I know. You need not speak. One mudra expresses everything. That meditation, what we will do now, it will be only a meditation of the feelings, the presence. And tomorrow morning, I will give you the meditation more and speak about yoga further, so how the yoga came to the people. Or to all the planets and individuals, so people who make the differences between yoga and religions, that is a conflict in their brain, which is predicted to them by dogmas. So come above the dogmas. We are all searching that reality, which is only one. We are all searching that reality, which is only one reality. There cannot be two realities, so there is only one God, and we all search for that God. There is only one Ātmā and many Jīvātmās. So first, we will have some bhajans. After the bhajan will be prayer, and after prayer will be that beautiful meditation. So you are all invited to listen to bhajan, so all cameras. Concentrated on the singers and people, not on me.

Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇ Bhagavān Kī Jai. Very nice. So, who is more just singing here? You sing now. This is a new team getting ready, you know. All this is gone. Retire. We are all here only for listening. And correct them if they are singing wrong. It was a little too fast. Do not make it too fast. Very slowly. Relaxed. Slowly. You are a young boy, you know. Si ještě mladík, but very good. So, from Martin, the singer, the opera singer, what is her name, girl? Yes, you come. You are from Martin, or from where? Yes, Maria or Mariana, what is your name? Come, then. Yoga siddhi, then show us your siddhi. If you have a siddhi or a nidhi, this side and this side automatically open for two minutes all and close for five, twenty, ten minutes. In two minutes, automatically always open the windows on the sides, and then close them again for ten minutes. We are ready to put sleep on one side. We are ready to put it on one side like a read book in the library bag. So we are now a library book. They are all in school books. No, Shanti. Not as you like. It is. Either be in the library or in the car. Bajagāmityāsapane, jagāmityāsapane, kimaya, murakaisyame, bamabuaya, murakaisyame, paramāchājusancho. Are you tired? So, first we will have prayer. Camera man, to me, always he is putting on the wrong for people, you know? So this was the beautiful bhajans. Bhajan means spiritual songs. There is a kīrtan, there is a repetition. Of the God’s name again and again and again, a particular god that belongs to the mantra practice. So the kīrtan belongs to the bhakti mantra. Then it is called dohā, that means question and answers both in that one poem. So always, there is a poem. There are only two lines: the first line is a question, and the second is the answer. But you do not know which is the right question and which is the right answer. It is not easy, and in Doha, the grammar does not matter. In the art of poetry, the grammar is out of it. Then there are bhajans, spiritual songs, different kinds of bhajans, some made by some people, nice bhajans, and some bhajans made by holy, self-realized, great saints. Bhajan has a teaching in it. Questions, answers, and instructions. So bhajan is more than just a kīrtan. Because there is also the name of the Supreme. A bhajan also belongs to bhakti yoga, and bhakti is of two kinds. Saguna bhakti means the devotion towards God who is manifested here in this world. and nirguṇa means the God without any form. Ultimately, the aim of saguṇa bhakti should also lead to nirguṇa bhakti. So it is sāguṇa and nirguṇa. That is sāguṇa and nirguṇa. So saguṇa bhakti is towards the individual goddess or personality. So bhajans are more beneficial. And these bhajans which were sung were from Mahāprabhujī. It is a beautiful bhajan, and it has very divine meanings, inspirational meanings, and is full of teachings. So it is said, there is a jewel lying on the road or in the street. Many just kicked away. But the one who knows the quality of the jewels picks them up from the dust, that jewel, and keeps it. So this world is the street, and this turbulence in this world is the dust. So one does not realize what Gurudev is, so you just quit it. Kick it. Running somewhere, searching different things. But who realized? Took this from this troubled world and became one with it, put it in the heart. Lālī, lālī, sab koikhe, sab ke pālī lāl. Everyone is saying, "Red, beautiful red, ruby." Lālī, lālī, sab koikhe, sab ke pālī lāl. Everybody say, "Rubin, Rubin." And in everyone’s cloth, it is tight at that Rubin. In everyone’s pocket is the Rubin there, but who did not realize this just kicked it like dust. So, it was a beautiful bhajan. Now we will have prayer, and after prayer will be that meditation. So, please put off some lights, and the webcast is finished. Tomorrow morning, according to European time, at 10 o’clock, I will be with you. Deep night and Bhagavān Kī-Cher.
