First of all, I wish you a very, very nice day. Today is the day of Śiva. That is called Monday, because of Som Vār. 'Som' is Amṛta, and it shows Śiva; it is the day of Śiva. Therefore, those who are Śiva bhaktas should fast on Monday. Those who are Guru bhaktas, [should fast] on the day of Jupiter. And Tuesday is the day of Hanumān. So, every seven days are connected to Mātā. She is here, so every seven days are somehow connected to the seven planets. Now, there are some arguments—this is very important—so in some way it is the truth. It is true that we should consider whether the constellations are affecting these planets only for humans, or for everyone: animals, birds, fish, trees, the whole of our Earth. Someone said, "Today is not a good constellation, I will not go." So, Holī Gurujī said, "Then what about the train? Will the train stop on that day because it is not a good constellation? And those who are sitting in the train, they had no problem." So, the astrology, the horoscopes we make and calculate—we have to think it over. But as far as the human brain, the human thoughts, the thinking... It is said that the Ṛṣis said humans are the most dangerous creatures: tricky, hiding, acting, killing, etc. So, how to control this human power? You may say that the Ṛṣis, the holy men, the spiritual men, they were thinking how to control the humans. And for that, they created this kind of constellation system, etc. And what is the difference between sin and good things? Pāpa and Puṇya. Pāpa means sin, and Puṇya means pure soul. But we don't believe it was like that. So those saints—it doesn't matter from which countries, there were good holy saints everywhere; you can call them saint, master, Ṛṣis, gurus—so they said we should give one injection. When we go to the doctor and a person is very wild and destroying many things, then the doctor decides to give one pill to calm down or give an injection. So these are the injections given by those saints: injections of spirituality. But they [people] don't want to believe, therefore they [the saints] create some kind of pūjā: "If you do this, you will have good constellations." And then these people who are very much connected and are too much counting all these kinds of constellations, and etc., the cards, reading, and this and that: "If you do this, there will be more money coming." So Holy Gurujī said, "Then why don't they get money first? Who is making your horoscope?" So, is it horoscope or horoscope? Always, Gurujī, it is all the truth. It is a story about Mumbai. Now Mumbai is 80% bigger, it got bigger. I was with Gurujī in '65, '66, '67, etc., traveling often in Mumbai, Gujarat, and so on. So Gurujī was standing at a bus stand. When the bus goes from this station to that station to that station... Gurujī was standing there, looking for the bus, and there was written on the front of some building: "The astrologer will give you already today for your constellation, so much money." Gurujī left the bus. Is it true? And on the second floor, Gurujī went there. There were sitting many, many people. And that astrologer would also give them a number: "For this number then you will win your lottery." So Gurujī went there, and this Paṇḍitjī came—he didn't know Swāmījī, but we all respect. So Gurujī said, "Paṇḍitjī, I want to go from here to Churchgate, there is a railway station, and I have to go by bus. I saw that you can give the money. So I have no money in my pocket, so please make some miracle, so that I can take my bus ticket." The paṇḍit, the astrologer, he bowed down to Swāmījī, and he gave 100 rupees to Gurujī's pocket. "Gurudev, this is my business, but I cannot lie in front of you." Gurujī said, "No, no, it was correct. Without... with very little time." A hundred rupees came into my pocket. He said, "Gurudev, whenever you come, I will always fill your pocket. But let me do my business." So that is a blind belief. But if someone gives us that education—that as humans, we are much better than other creatures, we have our intellect, our good thoughts, and we can do good things, or we can do the bad things—so we shall give control, not to this in the sky, this planet. But Gurujī said, control the planet of your indriyas, your senses. Control your ambition. So, sometimes they said, "I go to that guru, he will give me the kriyā, so I will jump up." About two decades ago, the person passed away. He was very good, very intelligent. He didn't meet anyone like this in public. As you hide, people become curious. So, I have something today. And you will be very curious, you see what's happening inside. I can make light the flames, and it's not burning. It is. So at the end of the lecture, I will show you. It is something, a miracle. Real miracle: fire in the hand. It will come. So that person was making even the Times magazine, and many other magazines, and was very on the front page. You will know many, many. Of course, why should we open the name? But it was levitation. How many thousands of dollars? About 200,000, as more expensive. People think this is the best, and if you say just a little, then they say, "No, it's not good." Like this. So there are some people who give the seminar high price and limited space: do it or lose it. And there is no refund. And they will not meet that person before. So, till today I'm waiting, no one is levitating. Then what happened? The iron springs, which we have on our car seat. Now it's different. Previously it was the sponge, but now we have a sponge, but it was the iron ring. So when the car was a little bit jumping, this was good, so that you were comfortable. So they made a yoga āsana, so thick, with the springs, and then you said, "Ha, ha... hum, hum, hum," and he was jumping up. Levitation, it will be. I missed the chance. I could also have done it. But that is not good. So there are sometimes people running here, there, and there; you lost everything. So, do not create fear in your heart and in your mind: "You have a bad constellation. You have someone doing magic on you. There is some black magic." So that one person, he said, came to... all the stories of Gurujī are reality. So one came with black magic, and he said, "I can kill from here anybody at this far distance, and I can again give life." Gurujī said, "You are great. How many hours will that person die? And then, after how many hours or days, can you wake up? Does it matter even one month?" So Gurujī said, "OK. Then kill the president from here with your power." And he said, "I can do it like that." Gurujī said, "Okay, I'm putting on the radio to see if the president is dead or not." He said, "No, no..." So Gurujī said, "Do not make a fuss like this." Therefore, you all bhaktas, the practitioners of yoga, in your life, do not involve yourselves in such things. There will be many masters you will meet. And they will tell, "I will do good, and I give you the Kriyā and Yogananda's Kriyā." What is Yogananda's Kriyā? Around the world, he has millions of bhaktas doing Kriyā Yoga from Kriyānanda and Yogananda. Ask anyone who got Self-Realization. Please ask. Hello? Yeah? Did you get anyone who was liberated and attained Self-Realization through that Kriyā? That's it. So, it's okay. Good exercise, like kind of prāṇāyāma. So our liberation will be that first our antaḥkaraṇa is pure, our way of thinking: no blackmailing, don't cheat someone, don't talk different to me and different to others. That's what we call a snake with two tongues. Did you see the snake's tongue? When the tongue comes out of the mouth, then it's like this. So it is said this person has two tongues. They are happy to create disharmony. They can't get liberation. So be humble. Be pure. And do not be jealous of each other. Be sure that you are not the only best one. There are others also. And if you think that you have no mistake and others are in mistake, then you are also with the mistake. How? This hand has no mistake, but the other hand is there. Mistake. So this hand will make a sound. Like this, then it is said, you are also mistaken. No. Yes. Because why were you there? That's a mistake. Before he took the hand here, you should have gone like this. Therefore, Holī Gurujī said very nicely in his lecture, "You get this film, Harvard," very, very beautiful words and satsaṅg it was. Therefore, do not get blackmailed. Who makes bad, and who makes bad? This is our own negative thinking, and that is making inside the stink. And then we are guilty, and we have fear. So practice and be humble, be kind, and of course we cannot tell that others are not good. Who are we to tell them they are bad? When we tell about that person, he is bad. Yes. But first, you are bad. Why in your brain did the word "bad" come out? So first was the bad in your thought, and then to others. So it is said that one person was very bad or something, and they were stoning a person, throwing stones. So from one village, people came all, and, "We will kill this person with these stones," and why? Because that person is not good. So some wise person came, like our Rādo. Rādo said, "Please be peaceful. You can throw the stones, and you will do it. But are you all correct?" Yes. "And we don't want this person." Then Rado said, "Who has never done some mistake or sin? That one should send, throw the first stone. Is anybody here?" Everyone's hand stone falls down. So, my dear, we have to still the spot, and that only we can cure. Do not depend only on the constellations, horoscopes, reading the cards, this and that. So practice, do not run here and there, and if there is any master, he will give you Self-Realization. Then, please come here with Self-Realization. We will wash your holy feet, yes. So then, why are you searching here and there? There are some catchers, so no temptation, please. Of course, if you don't like me, you can. Go, I don't promise you that you will get liberation. I always told, the last minute of your life, your Self-Realization will be or not, deciding there. And because it's the last minute of life. You know, there was one called Rājneesh. Then he gave the other name, Raso, Raso, or I don't know. So in Hindi language, Osho means the lowest person, but it doesn't matter. So some disciples asked the question, "What will happen to your disciples if you die? If you die, then what about your disciples?" He said, "It's their karma. I didn't promise them. That's all. I'm not responsible." But I'm not so cruel. I do attend each and every individual person. I do give the questions, I give the time for consultation, not as a master and Self-Realized. When I am completely Self-Realized, then here you will have only a chair. Why should I come here? I am human like you. I have the blessing of my Gurudeva and the knowledge of Gurudeva, and I do believe that I will come to Brahmaloka. And if not coming to Brahmaloka, I will be more happy to be with you, yes. So again, I come and I will say, "Oh, all are here. How happy I am in Brahmaloka." To whom I will give a lecture? Who will bring me a glass of water? Who will bring these beautiful children? You know, I have such sweet children here. So, my dear, be normal. Don't jump up and down. We purify our desires, our bad habits, and we love each and every entity. But of course, I have some things. It has a fire in my hand, but perhaps I'll show you next time. Then you will dream in the night, "When will Swāmījī come?" So, at a distance, some sādhus or some people, they are making such distance that they don't even give you time to see them. Only on the stage, give the lecture, blaze, and go. So, as much is hidden, more people are curious. So I have fire in my hand. Should I show it or leave it? Show it. That's it. So, "bandī mutī lakkhī khul gayī to rakkhī." When the fist is closed, it has a value of millions. Big diamond. Only, but is it closed? And when you open it, it's only dust. Nothing. So, like this, we should not hide. And don't say, "I will do this, and I will go there, and I will get everything. I will go to the Gaṅgā to have a snān. Wow." Why don't you take the whole, on our globe, the whole water? It's the Gaṅgā. But in that Gaṅgā is some kind of, some Himalayan power, and that's why. So in my glass, there is... what is that inside? Can you think? Black tea, milk tea, herbal tea, water, orange juice, or Coca-Cola. Yeah, so this is that no visible vessel, but it is like this, only water. So this water, or the liquid, is also water, but it's orange juice inside. So, my dear, it depends how you are and how I am. If you don't trust, we will filter water, okay? So we have to filter.
