TV Channel

Good evening. Welcome, everyone. Due to your calm, cool thinking, the atmosphere here is beautiful. This place where you are sitting now, and where we are doing sādhana, looks like a gurukul. We often speak about gurukul. It means the family of the Gurudev, where sādhakas, practitioners, aspirants, and students come to learn. Every time we chant in our prayer: Rāma, Kṛṣṇa, Śiva, Konbade—who can be greater than God Rāma and Kṛṣṇa? Yet, they also surrendered to their Gurudeva. They studied in guru-kula. They are the lords of all three worlds, yet they are obedient to their guru-deva. That guru-kula of Bhagavān Rāma is worshipped. His guru was Vāśiṣṭha Muni, and Vāśiṣṭha Muni’s wife was the guru-mother, guru-māī. They raised them, taught them, and loved them like their own children. Similarly, Kṛṣṇa also had his Gurukula. His Gurudev was the Ṛṣi Sāndīpani, and his Gurukula was in Ujjain. Those who go to Ujjain should visit the place where Kṛṣṇa studied. During the Kumbh Melā, there were too many people; it was very crowded. Ujjain is a very special city, said to be the middle point of the universe. According to science, jyotiṣa, and astrology, there is a line, a Rekhā, which goes and touches that point of the universe. Which Rekhā? The Karak Rekhā. It is a city of Vidyās and Siddhas, with many, many temples and different deities. We should not think this is just like a toy. There are some people who have still not opened their heart. They have a curtain, or they have fear. But reality is reality. Now, the sun is setting. Whether you believe it or not, the sun will set. It will be dark. You may not believe, but it will happen. We will have to light the candles or the lights. Similarly, in many other parts of the world, there was great mystery and there were miracles. But somehow, in this modern culture, mentality, and education, we lost this. While searching for one thing, we lost all. That is a pity, and that is how we are suffering more and more from many diseases, many mental diseases, family problems, individual problems, social problems, and political problems. Complications are always developing. Humans are born as embodiments of God, but God found that he made a mistake. Therefore, he took away or hid within them those miracles, abilities, and knowledge. It is like when a small child is crying, and parents give him toys. The child forgets everything and thinks the toys are reality, but they are not. So, in this modern way of living, thinking, and behaving, we lost that reality and we are searching for it. For example, at the NASA Center, scientists researched the sound of Oṃ. They found that in the movement of the Sun, there is an Oṃ. You can look this up on NASA's YouTube channel. Anyhow, the knowledge which the ṛṣis gave was great. It contained science. It had sense. Science means sense, but that sense was lost. So, from that science which had sense, they lost the sense, and therefore they call it research. It was, and it is, but we have forgotten. Day by day, in our brain, we have new ideas, and all that is there, but we lose it. We try to get many of those miraculous things, but these miraculous things are still not perfect or complete. For instance, now everything depends on electronics. We have webcasts from Yoga in Daily Life, Swamiji TV, everywhere around the whole world. It doesn't matter if you are on a little island or in a forest; even many shepherds are looking and listening to our bhajans and our satsaṅgs. But when the electricity is out, everything is finished. In India, television is called Doordarśan. That's called D.D.R. In India, they want to make everything short. So, who should know what a D.D.R. is? Then you can be the D.D.T.! They learned from the British: short and short, everything. So, why give the name? You should give the complete name. That television, which they call Doordarśan, means "far vision." The news is broadcast in New Delhi and you can see it anywhere. There are no cables, nothing. But this Doordarśana comes from yoga—the yogic vision that a yogī can see over a far distance. But for that, one needs sādhana, many things. So, the D.D.R. made it a little easier. We don't need sādhana; we need to work to earn money to pay, so that we can see the D.D.R. But the first thing they see through the telescope at NASA—that instrument is called Śiva's Eye. You can look into it; it is Śiva's eye, because Śiva's eye is the third eye of Śiva. But now we have all kinds of instruments, yet reality is different. Doordarśan for vision, and then also Doordarśan sound, D.D.S., for radio—only sound. So you could speak; your master can speak from the Himalayas at the Adriatic coast. But it is the same principle. Our instrument—telephone or television or whatever we say—must be in order, as well as the sender station. So, if the Master can perfectly see you, but you don't have this siddhi, then you don't see Him. So, trikāla darśī is also written in Patañjali. Kāla means past time. Past is also kāla, and time is also kāla. Trikāla darśīs see the past, present, and future. Those were the siddhas, or are the siddhas. Through a lot of sādhana or incarnations, that energy came with them. You read in Līlā Amṛt of Bhagavānśrī Deep Nārāyaṇ Mahāprabhujī many stories. One man came; he had a problem with his sinuses and didn't want to have an operation. He was a merchant for grains and always liked the grains, so he put the grain in his mouth. At the same time, he was sneezing, so it went into his sinus through the nose. Of course, the grain expands with the humidity, and the doctor wanted to operate. Someone told him, "You can go to Mahāprabhujī; he can cure this disease." He comes to Kāṭhū. This person was from Nāgpur—a city in Maharashtra. Mahā means great. There is a big story of the Mahārāṣṭra and Satrapatī Śiva, the emperor. He was a great devotee of his gurus. What was the name of his Gurujī? Rāmdās. I have told you that story many times, and next time I will tell you again. There were miracles. Maharashtra had many, many great saints. There was one called Jñāneśwar, Sant Jñāneśwarī, who was great. He could make a wall walk. He was sitting on the wall as a small child of 10-15 years. That's how it happened; I will tell you next time. Because one guru came riding on a tiger—the guru of Jñāneśwarī, Sant Jñāneśwarī—and he and his sister were playing, sitting on the fence with a ball. The saint came to see that, because people said Jñāneśwarī is a very great siddha. So he wanted to see. He was riding a tiger and had a few snakes in his hands. The tiger was not going. So Jñāneśwar said to his sister, "Oh, there is a great saint coming, riding on a horse or a tiger." He said, "Okay, we will ride the wall." And he said to the wall, "Let's go." And the wall went toward them. Yes, it is truth. It is written also that one of the best Bhagavad Gītā translations is called Jñāneśvarī. That is one of the best. If you want to read Bhagavad Gītā, then read that one. Mahāprabhujī said to Gurujī, "If, then, read Jñāneśvarī's book." And Mahāprabhujī had with him himself the Jñāneśvarī book. So now, I've forgotten where I was. The story of Mahāprabhujī: the businessman, the merchant, came to Kāṭhū where Hori Gurujī is. When that man was approaching Mahāprabhujī, from about 20 meters away he didn't speak anything to Mahāprabhujī. He just folded his hands and saw Mahāprabhujī approaching. Mahāprabhujī said, "You have a problem in your sinus. You are the merchant of corn grains, but you wanted to eat that one, this chick bean, chana, and it went into your sinus because it was not written that you would eat it. There is one house, Christian, who has a chicken bite, and this seed was for that chicken. Go and see that chicken, and your disease will finish. Go." So after five meters, four meters, he made a praṇām, and Guru Mahāprabhujī said, "Go quickly. I'll come after that when it's finished." He comes to Nāgpur and asks where these Christians who have the chickens are. At that time, the Hindus were not eating too much chicken, only Muslims and Christians. When he saw the chicken, the chicken was running. He had like this, and that came out, the grain, and immediately the chicken took it and went away. So how did it happen? That is called a Trikāla Darśī. And we, even we, don't know when and how and this and that. So, we have the curtain—neither past nor future, only in the presence we are here. This presence is only a limited place. So, through that sādhana, the opening of the third eye of Śiva, they could see far distances, hear far distances, and communicate over far distances. And only those people who would not do something wrong with that ability. Because if your third eye opens and you see the future or far distance, you can see through rock, through the water of the ocean, through walls. Then you could whole night look into your neighbor's house to see how the cats and mice are running there. Therefore, God is very clever. The human, who is created as my representative, will misunderstand. After he finds these abilities, he will misuse and misunderstand. So God made the curtain come down. So neither past nor future, only in presence. So it is said, Mahāprabhujī has written: "The past is gone, the future is not here. What is the presence? Like that will be your future." So your karma, your actions, your thoughts, what you do now, that will be the fruit for the future, not for the past. But when you have to pay back something, karma, that is towards the ancestors, and maybe some friends. So, how much loan do we have to pay back? This pūjā that you had, I think it was great. It is said the whole area of about 100 kilometers is affected. The effect is within a 100-kilometer range. Ask the people from the VIP, if you have friends. Why did you dream, Diana, in the last few days? Or how did you feel? How was the business? Many, many things, because it is—that's called the past. But ancestors—animals also have ancestors, but they, animals now, can't do anything. They only have to go through their karma to suffer or enjoy. Therefore, it is said, "Life will eat life." Then it is said, "God, what a great sin." That they eat each other, that is then sin or puṇya. Pāpa or dharma. Pāpa or puṇya. So, eating each other or animals eating other animals, they will have big troubles. Yes, that's it. Then they have to have karma and come back again, and the time will come that you will get one life. That's called Manuṣya. The Ṛṣi Manu said this. Therefore, every animal can eat, but humans should not eat animals or humans. And so I have certain limitations to let people into the Brahmaloka: who is not eating any other creatures, is not using any toxic things, and has good vṛttis. This is also a kind of fear that if I will not do this, then I will go again into another life. For that, it is from Satya Yuga. There was a yajña. The jñāna then was the karmakāṇḍa and bhakti. So we are now in bhakti, bhakti with that karmakāṇḍa, and therefore there is no argument. It is your choice. Here or there, the road is very clear, and there is a written path. From which side you want to go is your choice. You have to walk yourself. So, yoga—what we are practicing, and you know very well around the whole world—maybe there are more systems like this. Otherwise, our Yoga in Daily Life is one of those systems which has all kinds of yoga: Bhakti Yoga, Jñāna Yoga, Karma Yoga, Rāja Yoga, Svara Yoga, Kriyā Yoga, all kinds of techniques. And the best yoga technique is the satsaṅg. Because that changes our way of thinking from the negative to the positive. It makes a humble human. Now there are more techniques to make humans more aggressive, without mercy, killing, etc., etc. So you are that. You will spread in the world and bring this sāttvic peace, divine, and way of liberation. So you were here one week. It was very great that this is your Gurukul here. Some of you are going tomorrow. I wish you all the best, and you should practice. Now, at the same time, I would like to thank the organizers. You don't know how many people are working as volunteers. They don't ask for money or anything, but they are doing seva. That's also a kind of practice. We have at least 40 people all who are involved to make this peaceful, beautiful seminar—included from the big kitchen, small kitchen, office, the guards, the directors, the colleagues, our people. You know how peaceful and how nice we have here a program. Nobody makes noise except us. That's it. So we can say, "One in all, all in one; one in all, all in one is Kṛṣṇānanda." So we thank Kṛṣṇānanda very much. And Kṛṣṇānanda means all of you. Yes, this is the thanks for all of you. That's it. And then we have here Swāmī Haripurī. He was many years in India. How many years? Twenty years, in coming and going. So this time I gave him holidays for two seminars, yes. Then we have Swami Hṛdayakamal Daya and Yogananda Puri, but your name is Daya and Uma Puri. And then the top point, that we have our very dear friend, our Paṇḍitjī, Ācārya, many titles. And he did a great job. I think he has cleaned the environment of half of Europe. So, on behalf of all who are leaving tomorrow and who had a pūjā already, we thank Hṛt-kamalakam. This is the Pūjārī Ācāryajī's diet. Flowers he cannot eat, so, yeah, he can't afford this. Also, our technicians—many blessings to them. So, the Trikāla Darśī—if you get your Trikāla Darśī, then you must have a very strong heart; otherwise, you will get a heart attack. And you should not tell anyone. Through this Trikāla Darśī, one sees all three bodies: physical, mental, and astral. It is like an X-ray, and it sees through. But this X-ray will not be shown to anyone. One day, when you come so near, so close, then you can see. But we have to purify these eleven points. Or more. I had forgotten: five, and five, and three. This is what we spoke about yesterday. And in that also was the Mālā, Vikṣepa, and Āvaraṇa. And before, there were four Antaḥkaraṇa. So Antaḥkaraṇa and the body, our body, and Mālā, Vikṣepa, and Āvaraṇa—this we have to purify. There is no other way. So mana, body, mind is always inside. Therefore: manas, buddhi, citta, ahaṁkāra. Śaṅkarācārya said: manā, buddhi, citta, and... and this is within us. And so over this manā, buddhi, citta, ahaṅkāra is this where the pollution—māla, vikṣepa, and āvaraṇa. The māla is impurity: physical, mental, emotional, intellectual, etc. When in this way of thinking, and there, if it is impurity, you cannot proceed further. So first, clean this. Therefore, you remember yesterday I taught this one from Ācārya Rāmjī. Many, many lives we try to purify, but still there is one spot which is very nasty, very hard to remove. We don't like when it's very sour—no, no, it's too much. So, like this, that kind of sourness can split or spoil everything. What? Viṣaya. And viṣaya means the desires, longing for desires. Longing for that, so when, for example, you drink alcohol every day, you are addicted to alcohol. But one day, suddenly, one thought comes, and you give up the alcohol, not anymore. You don't even like to look, you don't think. That means this desire is gone. Similarly, there are many, many desires. So, then after when this is, the impurities are cleaned, and desires, these all are destroyed, or there is no more interest at all, then therefore that is that sweet nectar which can make us immortal. It is ātmā jñāna. That jñāna we can get, and that is the satsaṅg. What we are doing, what disturbs us—all kinds of our temptations, desires, problems, this, that—and then there is a curtain of ignorance. So to open that ignorance means that trikāla darśī, Trinetra, Śiva's third eye. And when it is said, when Śiva's third eye opens, which is in view of his visions, it can burn everything. What? All the vāsanās, all the problems, everything is gone. There is no obstacle for you. No one is against you. Everything goes to the Brahmaloka. Therefore, such a retreat or seminar, what we are doing, has a great meaning. Don't think, "Okay, Swamiji's lecture is important, and I can see at home also Swamiji coming through the webcast." If you can touch me in the webcast, trickle here a little bit, then I will say you are Trikāla Darśī. Then you can practice at home. So, this what you see me in television, this is an inspiration, that even you can get some knowledge while sitting there. But while looking at a picture of food, your hunger cannot be quenched. So nice food comes: this and that, and this, and cream salad, this cake, that cake, samosas, parathas, pizza, so many, many... many. Therefore, to be there in that atmosphere, in that energy, in that environment, that has a great meaning. So, I know many people are packing their luggage, and tomorrow they will be here, and many of you will go. So, I wish you a good journey. Many blessings of Alagpurījī Siddha Pīṭha Paramparā to bless your whole family, friends, neighbors, etc. And wish you all the best. Śrī Deep Nārāyaṇ Bhagavān Śrī Dev Puruṣa Mahādeva Śrī Satguru Swami Mādhavānandjī Bhagavān Alagpurījī Mahādev. And you know, there is something great, a great event. We are going to Alāgpurījī. Alāgpurījī's cave. Don't think it is a mountain; it's a very big cave inside. Alagpurījī had quite a few caves, which are going into the mountain. That I don't want to open, because some of you will go in and you can't come out. And you know how many Ālagpurījī's guards are inside. In the cave inside, there are some kind of leopards and tigers, many things, but they will do nothing. But if you sleep in Alakpurīchī's cave, which is very deep in—I was already, nearly from 50 meters, I said praṇām. But there is another one where he was mostly living, meditating. We are going there, and we are, all those who want to go. You must take all rules and regulations. Also, you have to have a doctor's certificate for your lungs, your heart. Walk and walk. So we will be there about 10 days—10, 12 days. There is also what we call the journey and everything. They will have a tent for us, they will have a cook for us, and they will have a big tent for satsaṅg for 200 people. Everything. So you are welcome to come and join us. But please do not come without registering. Not just come there and say, "Swāmījī, can I join you?" The organizers, and because we have given some company, and it is from that company, they have buses, beautiful buses with 28 seaters, very good. They have inside bottle, tea, and there will be breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And some people will carry our luggage, but you have to pay extra. If you cannot, you can ride a horse—yes, they are what they call mules. And there is no path. If it is like this path, we all will walk. There's a rock, a second rock, a water creek there, and the horse is looking and then going where he can go safely. And sometimes he's going so down, you must hold it like this. And sometimes he goes up, so you have to become a good friend. Or four people can carry you. So that is about ten, twelve, thirteen kilometers. It's the border of China, the last village of India, and the last tea store, an Indian kind of chai. Proudly, they are writing there, and proudly, because they said it is Rajasthani. And there are good shops in that village—handmade many āsanas from sheep wool. We will organize to have a darśan of Bhagavān Badrināth Purī. We are lucky. You will get prasād from there. It is a holy... There are four holy places in India, and one of them is that. So it is a great... and the mountains, huge. If we are lucky, we become so rich, so rich. Morning, you get up and look at the mountains. Suddenly, the whole mountain turns into gold. Now you can take as much gold as you can. It remains only a few minutes, then the gold disappears. On the other side is Kubera, the treasurer of the gods. There is a Nīlakaṇṭha, Lakṣmī Temple, a mountain, Alakpurījī Mountain, and Alakṇandā River. It's great. So, I'm not so young like you, but I don't know if I'll go a second time. It can be if I'm healthy next year too. So, those who like to do it should do it.
