Bhajans from Khatu

The supreme fortune is attaining the company of truth. You have come to this earth for spiritual endeavor, not for worldly gossip. The Guru is the embodiment of peace; establish your focus and discipline. The root of worship is at the Guru's feet, and the fundamental basis is the Guru's word. Having come into this mortal world, why have you forgotten God? We have forgotten our own true nature and the purpose of coming to the saints. Therefore, be as one in the presence of Gurudeva. In this world, one who obeys the command and finds the company of saints is truly fortunate. God does not accept a wicked, unfortunate soul. Do not speak of bad things. If you get a Guru by God's grace, you will know the scriptures. In the company of saints, the soul finds the river. A hundred thousand other worships are not equal to the worship of their feet.

"Having come into this mortal world, why have you forgotten God?"

Victory to Satguru Kabīr Sāhib. Victory to Śrī Deep Narāin Bhagavān. Victory to Śrī Madhu Bhagavān. Victory to Swāmī Śrī Dādu Dayāl Mahārāj, to Anant Śrī Daryāvjī Mahārāj, and to Sāśā Balarāmjī Mahārāj. The eternal Sanātana Dharma is our mother and sister. Sit peacefully, sit in the satsaṅg pavilion. O human being, you have come to this earth for spiritual endeavor. Do not keep your attention on worldly gossip in satsaṅg. The Guru is the embodiment of peace. Establish your focus and discipline. At all other times, meditate: "Brahma kurur, Viṣṇu kurur, Devar meśram." Within that, the root of worship is the Guru's feet. The fundamental basis is the Guru's word. In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. If someone brings you a drum, you cannot play it without the drum. You cannot play without it. I am happy, I am happy, I am happy. Kabīr says, remember that day when you placed your foot upon your head. Having come into this mortal world, why have you forgotten God? Kabīr Sāhab speaks the sweetest words. We have forgotten our own true nature, the purpose for which we came to the company of the saints. We have forgotten our own self, that is why we speak such words. Therefore, O peaceful human being, be like one who is in the presence of Gurudeva. See the feeling in the mind. We are going to be with you; don't act like this, we will act like this. Understood? And in my mind, there is so much feeling, so much love. What a vision it is when I listen to satsaṅg and perform bhajan. Therefore, a Saint Mahāpuruṣ says: "Ma Puruṣāre Mukar Bandhuṣu Aap Sarvan Kartā Ke Kitto Bhagya Śhālī Ādmī Ve Bo Santara Darśan Kare Aur Satsaṅg Maave Puruṣāar Pūrṇamate Hain Ke Ekto Ve Bhagya Ādmī Aur Jagdra Log Bhāgī Ki Ne Samjhe Ke Gana Phaya Ver Lanto Parivār Ver Gani Jamī Ver Gana Betta Jalme Unn Kain Samjhe." So... O brother, how much fortune is written? How many sons? One son, two sons? And how many moments? How much land? How many moments? How much time? And the saints say that in this world, one such fortunate person is rare. And everything is there, but only the one who obeys the command, the true beloved, is complete. The scriptures have only described the fortunate one. Where is it described? That such a fortunate person is a great soul. And the saints say there is one great fortune: understanding and peace. The saints say: You have come to this satsaṅg, to this gathering of great souls; it is a great fortune. Have the vision of the great, peaceful souls; you people are most fortunate. You people are most fortunate, and you must become fortunate souls. God does not accept a wicked, unfortunate soul. "Yeh śacā premjī khar miśrī su marjai." Therefore, be as one in the presence of Gurudeva. "I have obtained the jewel of the Name, the wealth. The wealth of the mind will flow out." Do not speak of bad things. Do not speak of bad things at home. Do not speak of bad things at home. Did you understand? The one who brings fire—if you see the fire, the fire is very bad. If you see the fire, the fire is very bad. Why? In this world, there is no happiness. And in this world, look: if you get happiness, if you get grief... The four Vedas, the six Śāstras, and the eighteen Purāṇas. I have received these two things, and I am going on and on. That somewhere there is happiness; there is happiness, there is sorrow; there is sorrow. Beloved, if there is happiness, then there is happiness. If there is money, then there is money. Now see, if we go ahead, we will suffer today. Now someone says, "Mahārāj, I am from the Saṅgat Mohanā, I have written the Karamphēlā." If the first word becomes the first word, then the body becomes the second word. Why should the mind be worried about the body if the body becomes the first word? So what is the first word? Now we have become the first word of Kāraṇjī. This is the difference between the two. In the past, you made a mistake. Today, if you have to make a mistake, do it now. What will you do in the future? Dādū Tinthoḍī asks Bīrlā, "Tan man tan niśravad karsya? Meto muṅgī muṅgī vastu molāsayin loy. Gurudev jī ra darśan me jasya. Ām kirodhar dukh diyā door atasya. Āre, āp śabha kā nām jāwar, āpre med hai, koī gant hai, koī dard hai. But śabha kā nām jāwar jānā, kitto modo number āvey tohi ājar jabo." Like this. Sometimes it is said: O Lord, remove our stains. Do not harbor any resentment in your heart, for it gives great pain. Make your heart as pure as gold, make it vast. Who is suffering from this disease? That is why Mahāpuruṣa says: "Kāma krodha, dugdhyā dūra atasya, meto śīla santoṣa, dayā lāsahe loya, gurudeva jīra darśana, me jyasya. 68 tīratha māra gurū jīra caraṇa." For the Mahāpuruṣas, there is one place, one consciousness. One consciousness is like a tree at the pilgrimage site. The peaceful society is the Gaṅgā of the soul. Contentment and compassion are its waves. The water is pure, the depth is the bank of knowledge. O Paltu, hold the Guru's boat, then evil thoughts will not remain. Now, again and again, drink the essence, and evil thoughts will be destroyed. Wherever you go, apply yourself. Do not strike the boat from above, lest it sink. Understood? If you work for that person, all your anger and pain will be gone. Dharamdās Śrī Arjan Sāhib said, "I have put a nail in my foot. I am going to see Gurudev jī. Mā Puruṣān Kā Man Diyā Jī Ne Sab Diyā. Āpān Ripya Devān Darśan Ho Sabarī. Śundeen Karnī Karnī Manarī." Those who cry and suffer—Śānt Mahāpuruṣ says we have to build a temple. Why do we have to let go of our knees? We don't have to build a temple. It is very bad for the mind. Mahāprabhujī says we have to understand the words directly. That is why Mahāprabhujī says: "Gurudev jī ra darśan me jasya thodokṣiyo, open your voice. Kārya kartā jānā toh āvāz thodī phikrāo." If you get a Guru by God's grace, then you will know the scriptures. In the company of saints, the soul finds the river. Thus, keep your attention at the saints' feet. A hundred thousand other worships are not equal to the worship of their feet. This is the grace of the Guru, by God's grace. Sant Maa Puruṣ says that Maa Puruṣ has told us about three types of karmas in her speech: "Paralāvād sañchitur kriyāvān karmarī jajan do pargajan subh asubh kivave asubh karmane door ātāvo sudhbudhi ghaṭme lāo gurunasah binā kon parem janpave sadguru merā sant māpuruṣan kā puṣabh svarūpī māpuruṣ ketein dego bhavararo upmā dī puṣabhārī kyun dī bhavararī." Sadguru Meera is of the nature of a flower. The bee catches hold and brings it, tells everyone, and the bee flies away. Without the Guru, who can cross the ocean? Then it is said, as Mīrā Bāījī said: "Nirakum Sadguru Jīrū Rūp Pusabri Kalyāṇ." Saint Mahāpuruṣa says: "Sadguru meera, pusab saroopī, bhavar vāsanā leve. Laptiyā bhamar huyā magnā mai, aur be jarā chhod nahī jāve. Guransa binā kon parem jal pāve? Kumparā neer kish bidh sokeve. Seer sahir mayū āve. Āge māpuruṣa phurmate. Dood mayū girat mehndir mayū lālī." And knowledge comes from Gurujī, that Kabīr says: "Sunubai santam be charaṇam śhīṣh nivāve. Guransā binā kon parem jal pāve? Kumparā nīr kish bidh soke ve seer sayer māyū āve." Say, O Sadgurū Jī Mahārāj, then hope comes, there is a gathering. In the gathering, know one thing: do not sit with a confused mind, do not engage in petty arguments. Otherwise, you will sink and not emerge. All who meet there are great souls, a great ocean. I will not take much time from you; I will give rest to my speech. Sat Sāheb. Victory to the innocent, to Deep, to Dhāraṇ Bhagwān. Thank you very much.
