In the name of the Lord, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Good evening. It is the Christmas season, and we are speaking about harmony—Body, Mind, and Soul. We know nothing about our body. It is good that God has given a beautiful skin all over the body. We see nothing of what is within. How everything works, how Nature or God has arranged everything, is a miracle. Within nine months, such delicate nerves, the eyes, ears, smell, heart, brain, various glands—it is a miracle. So, we know nothing at all about our body; how then can we know about our mind? Where does the mind reside in the body? In which part? There is a mighty force within us. It dominates everything. It is a dictator. But where does it dwell? Where is its residence? Some say in the heart. Some say we receive it in the brain. We know nothing about how it can influence the entire existence. Therefore, for us there remains only one thing: we should not be unkind to the mind. Do not go against your mind, otherwise you will be exhausted the next day. And the soul, we also know nothing about. What does it look like? What is it like? Black, white, yellow, red, blue? And in which part of the body? It is very difficult. It lives inside, but how does it enter the body, through which door, and how does it go out? It lives, it has a beautiful residence, and then it disappears. When, how, and where, we do not know. Nevertheless, our life is very important to us. We love our mind, we love our soul, we love our entire existence. All living beings, the 8.4 million different species, exist here on this Earth-planet. We call Earth a planet, but Earth is not merely a planet. Earth is its own universe. It is the Mother. Everything lies within her body. She sustains all. So, we have not yet discovered the true meaning of what Earth is. All we do is rob everything. We are taking all away. Among these 8.4 million living creatures, one is the human. A human is a human. No matter from which continent a person comes, they are a human being. A person possesses everything, all abilities. These are the hidden forces within humans. One of the most powerful among them is our intellect. The intellect has power, a force, everything. But it requires discipline. Training is taking place. One wishes to become a doctor. How many years does she study? Three, four months? Thank God, I haven’t started. So, at least three years, but it takes four years. One loses concentration and goes off track, and then two, three years of training afterwards. Then a specialist emerges, and that also takes several years. Then we are perfect. One begins to study medicine at the university. The professor says, yes, all of this is beautiful and wonderful, but it is only theory. To realize it in practice, one needs the best experiences, at least ten years. So, a person needs education. There is a perfection in that. But still, one does not know everything. A surgeon may practice for ten, twelve years and perform brain surgery perfectly, but he still does not know where the soul is. I do not know where the Kuṇḍalinī is, where the Cakra is. And yet people speak. The glands, the pineal gland, the pituitary gland—what magic is in these two glands. The third eye is also in these glands. So, it is a miracle. Today, when I came, I thought, now it is Christmas time, what should I tell you? In two words, I can say: life is a celebration. The whole life is a celebration. And this celebration is in the grace of God. What we celebrate is in the grace of God. And so both the festival and the celebration begin. From the astral planes, through our destinies, through the grace of God and our karma, the soul is being prepared. It is like a ceremony, a beautiful ceremony. Because a soul comes to this earth as a human being, it is being celebrated. Everything is being offered. And this soul is told: you are the light of God. Now God has initiated you with a hope. We all hope that you bring joy, peace, grace, victory, and liberation to all living beings. You are only love, and your task is love in love for all living beings. All living beings, whether a tiny mosquito or an elephant, a duck or an elephant, all are God’s light, God’s grace. Whatever God has created, or Nature, what instruments did He use? Hardly any are visible to our eyes, like a mosquito or a fly. We only know when they bite us. How strong are the teeth? Where has God established the teeth? This is not even visible to our eyes. What technology? So this is the miracle of God’s creation of this earth, Mother Earth. This earth lives; we say it is a living planet, it is alive here. Thus the soul is prepared. Rejoiced again, with music and everything. Love all your brothers and sisters as your own Self. Ātma is the Supreme Self. All beings are my Ātma. All living beings are my Self, my Ātma. Not the Jīva, but Ātma. Ātma, Soham, Paramātmā, because all these beings are part of God, the light of God. And so now, with much congratulations and blessings, a soul, a light, now becomes visible in God on this Earth. But where and how? It will be accompanied. The human soul will be accompanied throughout the entire universe, so that no one can kill the path or take the path. Or someone else initiates this soul; another soul can enter. That can happen. But it is escorted. Through many Vṛttis, many energies: Manas, Buddhi, Citta, Ahaṅkāra, Jñāna, Bhakti, Viveka, Parājña, Tyāga, everything. It is like a grand wedding. All hundreds, thousands come as energy, as abilities, as owners. Can you see how this soul begins to find steadiness there? Festival and Celebration. It is celebrated. Everything is the Miracle of God, whether we believe or not. We see nothing of God, but we have only one word, one language for it. We have no other language. No matter what language you speak, when you speak God, it is God. We say Bhagavān, you say God, others... Tsekin says what? Book? No, that is Tsekin. And Hungarian? Exactly. But there is only one: God. And so is the grace of God. God sees nothing evil, only beauty. When a small child goes on a picnic with friends, the parents give them many things: something to eat, something to wear, good things. But along the way, different qualities came in because the escorting committee was not careful. The first festival begins when the soul starts to arrive from the universe, ascending and descending to our planet. Yes, there is celebration and gathering. It is a year, a year of festival, my God. Did you feel it? You completely forgot it. You should make your YouTube as it was in the universe. And here, up above and down below, there is also celebration because the Mother and Father were born. They have already celebrated everything, and now Mother and Father are born. So, they are also slowly, slowly growing larger. Then, you come to your mother, to your father. As soon as mother and father are born, a celebration takes place. The wedding is being celebrated. How beautiful. And then mother and father are also married. How fortunate. You find a very kind, loving man or woman. They are happy, very happy. They are like two as one. A bird has two wings and one body. So, they have two souls, two bodies, but the Prāṇa is one. It is precious, precious. One cannot pass on or buy a human body to live happily. But you have not understood this; you have not understood love. And now, because there is no upbringing. There is no education. Now, in this time, there is no true education. It is only education for money, money,... power, power,... politics. This is not education. It is all foolishness. Be human, my God. The human is like a very early dawn. And the sun sets. How beautiful, so clear, truly wonderful. That is our hope. And God’s vision or hope was that a human being would take on my entire task. And now I am relaxed. And we come here and make a mistake. And everyone comes and complains to God. God is resting. "What? My children did that? Yes, sir. Well, impossible. Oh yes. Come and see what is happening now on the earth with the humans." Not just one eye weeps. Four eyes weep. And then? Two more close. Then three or four more will come. People live their whole lives crying, crying, crying. The man did not understand what my wife means to me. Or the woman did not understand what my husband means—what God has given us. This always leads to misunderstanding, anger, hatred, and so on. Silks, silks, silks. No desilks, all silks. That is also a festival. But the wedding is a festival. We celebrate, but no one celebrates the newspaper. That is a sadness. Trust, they say trust, when someone dies. God is not happy. The father is not happy, the mother is not happy with what we have done. But we tell God, it is not our fault, Lord. We have no one who can give us education. We have learned what we do. We learn only disappointment. Krishnapuri, is there something a little like that? Does it fit? Hopefully, you have not experienced something like that. Oh, you too? Well then, I’d rather not ask anything further. We are born. How happy our parents are. How happy is our mother when she says to her husband, "You, now we are going to have a baby." How happy are both of them. And then it is born. And happy. A boy is born, then a large cake is made. And then a girl was born. My God, the whole village bursts into music. There is also a celebration, a festive birth. That means life is a celebration, and it is celebrated in God’s grace. Thanks to our parents, who have given us a human upbringing. A human culture is different, and animal culture is entirely different. But now they come very close together; they have blended this culture together. Of many living beings, now it is only a cat that still maintains a culture. Niklas Sommers says she compared us to a cat. The cat has a very higher consciousness. Again we have grown, we have gone to school, we have learned, we have gotten a profession, we have received pocket money, and so on. Then, having so much money in the pocket, one cannot hold it, it is too much. We give to the bank, and the bank takes a little too much. Taxes, interest... the bank takes nothing, but when the tax comes... Therefore, thank God, we have it very easily in Austria, and in Switzerland it is even closer. Deposit the money there. That is why all politicians go for a coffee every weekend or regularly, in Switzerland, for chocolate and so on. That is very interesting, very good. And this is how our upbringing comes about. Then, when our parents say a name of God, one awakens. "What is this?" Then we hear the bells ringing from the church or the temple. Children ask, "What is that?" And children also come to the church, and a name of God is celebrated just like Christmas. This culture, this upbringing possesses us as a human culture, a spiritual culture: to believe in God and to understand what is bad and what is beautiful. And so, until the very last minute, our life will always continue to be celebrated. What is this? A funeral, or the crematorium. Yes, it does not cease either. The urn is also placed somewhere very solemnly, or scattered, or taken to the Ganges. And in the Holy Mother Ganges, she carries her child once again to the endless ocean. Consciousness returns once again to God. So the whole life, from the beginning in the astral world, back to this Earth, and then to the Brahmaloka. Yes, oh human, how beautiful it is that you have such beautiful karma, that with every step there is a celebration. Life is a celebration. And in every moment, it is celebrated as the grace of God. My life is your worship, oh Lord; my life is a ceremony for you. I see all kinds of holidays, regardless of which culture or religion they come from. Where there is ignorance, where there is dualism, where there is jealousy or we do not accept others, then people begin to quarrel. "My religion is the best. Other religions are not good. We will spread our religion more and more. Other religions, we will destroy." That is how it is. Let there be only one religion: humanity. And this is what God has granted us. With this hope, I take on my responsibility, embrace my children, and help my children—including the animals, all living beings. Grace is felt in the heart. Pain is felt in the heart. A person cannot kill a living being. Otherwise, there are Rākṣasas, who appear like humans, but inside their nature and quality are like that of a demon. One can do and show many things, but if nothing is purified inwardly, one is always in fear. One cannot sleep. Those who are guilty are afraid. Fear and ignorance of possessing oneself constitute a sin or a fault to someone else. But with words you can give, yet in reality you give nothing. Your karma, your destiny remain with you. So, this is Christmas, and today we are closing for the day here in our Yoga Society. I wish you all the best, blessings, and harmony, just as we spoke about this morning. What is harmony? Harmony in the body, in the mind, and in the soul. Next time, other higher levels will come. Life is a celebration. Festival in the name of God. Om Śāntiḥ. Śāntiḥ.... Dīpānayana Bhagavān. Devīśa Mahādeva. Badaka Kṛṣṇa Bhagavān, of Sanātana Dharma.
