Only one is Brahman
A satsang discourse using the allegory of horse riding to explain mind control and spiritual practice.
"The brain is the most powerful thing, but it is something like birds that fly away. So, early in the morning or at any time when we do something, we are putting something good into the brain."
"This is similar to our brain. It should follow according to our feeling, what we wanted. Many times we want this, and our brain goes to the other side."
He connects this to the importance of morning mantras, the symbolism of the horse as a holy and complete male, and the elephant of the Mūlādhāra cakra. The talk expands to include teachings on the seven elements (saptadhātu), the principle of oneness (Eko Brahma), seasonal eating, and concludes with a context about Rakṣabandhan and community activities.
