Good evening to all of us, dear sisters, brothers, all yoga practitioners, great saints, and all spiritual souls around the whole world. We know, after all, that the whole day we come to the holy feet of God. It is said, our Gurujī, Swāmī Madhavānandajī Bhagavān, said that every creature, in their feelings and in their long inner speakings, is in the hands of God. Japaṭ, paśu, or paśi, pyāre, paśu, paśi, all—even in the water, any jīva—they are in their ātmā, in the soul, inside. They are longing forward to come to the end of our cosmic self, not the body. Every living being has a body; that’s why there is Jīva. Also, in every seed, in all plants, in every flower, there is also the same thing. There was a story about a man who didn’t do good things; he was very cruel in many ways. He was killing all animals, beating them, and talking very badly. So it came one day when a Swamijī, or a sādhu, came and said, "Why are you doing this?" He said to that sādhu, "I don’t believe anything, and I don’t believe in dharma. It is just like kill and eat." That master said, "Sit down," and gave him a lecture. Suddenly, in his heart, he thought, "My God, is this like that? Then I have made a lot of negative things. I was not doing dharma, but I was doing adharma. But what to do? Your father, your mother, your friends—they cannot do anything for you. They have also done and are doing it themselves. Parents give birth, but that’s all. Then it’s within your soul, ātmā, which was in that body and became very harmful." So he said, "What can I do?" The master said, "Do this and this meditation, or mantras, or pūjā. Do this and that meditation, mantra repetition, pūjā, do these ceremonies." But after some time, he said, "I don’t believe," and he did more negative things. So it is said that when he died, he became other beings, like honeybees or something, and he was going to fall into hell. The honeybee died and became a worm, and so this soul, this jīva, fell and came into the worms. It is said that in narakaloka, but that sādhu, or the guru, when he took him in his hands and gave him a blessing, he accepted him as his disciple, but he went away. The master, the Guru, said, "It doesn’t matter where you are going; my good things are always with you." And the master said himself, "I will bring him back to God." For example, we have parents, and some parents are unhappy because the children are not learning and not listening to them. But parents have in their heart that their child will be on a good path. Likewise, a master, a guru: when he takes someone as a disciple, then it doesn’t matter where they are; the first master and first guru will bring them to liberation. So the worm came back again and, coming in the grass, became the honeybee again. That bee was looking for something, for honey, and it was the lotus flower. It found it in the lotus flower, so the bee sat on the lotus flower. Seeking the honey, and while it was evening, the flower closed. Now the bee remained inside. Early morning, the flower opens. At that time, the time of this lotus flower, it was not completely closed—or opened, sorry—and what we call God’s bhaktas, you have here also; they call them in the skies, in heaven. They are angels. So for the morning prayer, they brought this flower and gave it at the holy feet of God. And when He opened the flower, the bee was there. Others said, "Why is a bee here?" God said, "No. He is in my lotus feet. I will give him not only to somewhere, but to Brahmaloka." Similarly, every creature, one day, they will come also. There is one very nice bhajan book from, I think, from Mahāprabhujī’s disciple, Maṅgīlālji, and it is said—or maybe the other bhajan was from Mahāprabhujī’s bhajan—so it is said, one day, Brahmā can become a bee, and that bee or this worm can one day become Brahmā. Time is not there. It will be ages and ages and ages. How many births will they go through again? So, in that way, it is said that one is not forever in hell, and if one is in hell, he will die. What will die? All negative things are purified, like someone is in prison, and after that time, they free him. And if not, still not free, that will give up the life, and that soul will come further. So that is all: Jīvas, sooner or later, they all will come to the Supreme Cosmic. And it can also happen that someone will fall down. That is very important for us to know, so that we do not do bad things, negative things to others. Then it happens that you fall down, not them. But ego? Ego is the most terrible thing. In that way, we have to know: sooner or later, we will be in the highest supreme. So now, after the other life, when the soul comes into human life, that’s great, and we think that is the last life. Then we will come to God, or whatever, or I will again and again, for a few lives, be a human. But it is like this: the parents have to take care of the children. Parents must care for the children, just like a tree. The tree has its roots and a trunk. And there come again nice flowers and fruits on it. Without the roots, without the trunk, this one tree, the fruits will not come. So that is very important. Someone asked me a question today, and they wanted to tell me a question. I thought that question I will give today in Swamiji television. The question was about Hungary. In Hungary, the yoga practitioners want to practice, and they want to ask a question to me. About 800 students are waiting for this lecture, and their mother and father, so the whole family together, and their teachers were there. So in that, what can Swamiji give the children? This is a very nice question that tells me what he will give the children. I will give the children love, and I will give them sweet—not sugar, but sweet words—and feel like a flower, etc. And so, parents also—and parents need not tell that my child is not good. Everyone’s child loves their parents very much. But now in this Kali Yuga, people go away from the parents. Either the parents cannot control—and control means not control, but they don’t give them love—also, the teacher, the friends. So for that, it is that habit. It has to have one habit. Yesterday I spoke about this subject also. So first is giving the love of the parents and the neighbors, and good friends; this is the first thing. Second, we give education. But education is not about school education still, but from birth. The mother, the father, with great love, great protection, let them grow. This is very important. The parents should not do something like putting them to sleep so we can watch cinema or television. And if the child is not sleeping, they will try to put him in another room and let him sleep after watching television. Another thing: the children nowadays, they have all the television and they have so many toys. We are parents or grown-up persons. We have so much love for the children. But what should we give them? How many toys do you have? Don’t give them so many toys. Give them knowledge, and how to call it, the learning. And if we give some toys, we should give some, like flowers or something, but not like the many they have, the gun or like a knife. Of course, they are only from plastic, but it goes into their conscience that they will kill someone. So parents should not give such dolls that tell us they are not good, that kind of thing. That is very important. Yes, I know the toys. And so take care of which kind of toys you should have. And don’t give every day and every week or something, one after the other’s toys, one after the other. In your house, sometimes you said, in the flat, there’s very little flat, but it’s all for your children’s toys there. So toys are very good, but limited. And more important is the parents’ education. On time, give them eating, give them good, very good food, give them milk, and sit with the children and talk many things. When the father will speak or the mother will speak, the children listen very carefully. And our neighbors, friends, and these children, they play. It’s very good—playing, running, etc. So they should come, children at home, and we hug the children to the mother. So that when school is finished, the children should come home; children want to run and come home. This is, if our children are in our hands, till the, what you call, the kindergarten. When the child is gone to the kindergarten, there in the kindergarten, then the child will come back, bring the other language—not language, but different words. So now you can say your child is getting out of your hands. I know you will not agree with what I’m telling you. One of the parents, and mostly the best is the mother, stays with the children, gives them lessons, everything, that will be more than that. And go, mother, parents together with the other children playing. After that, we come to school. It’s very good. And every teacher is good, every school is good, every government—they are making good things for the children. They take very much care of the children. But bring them, in time, back to that home. And learn, learn, learn. So that you learn and learn on time. Go to sleep on time. When they are eating: many religions, before eating, they make a prayer. India has different, Hindus have different, Buddhists have different, Christians have different, etc. Then they know what it is. And now, many people, after when they are about 20 years or like this, children, and they have not got education. It must not be a religion, but there is something, and therefore, after, children will say, "Oh, my parents did not tell me. My parents gave me such kind of food. I like it, other food." So, like this, very careful. And after that, we should have good friends. That’s very important. They will learn many things, and they come home happy. When the teacher is in the school, then the teacher is God. Now you will say, "Teacher is not a God." The knowledge is God, and that knowledge, which the teacher is giving, he also got it from God, and so children will get it from us. Therefore, you call it teacher; others call it the master. And others said, "The guru, it’s the same." It’s only language, so we should tell our children that they should learn and concentrate on what the Master is talking about and telling. And of course, there in the schools, on the way, nobody should give some kind of drugs or something to the children. Don’t do this. Alcohol is like a medicine, but it’s not for destroying our lungs and everything. So don’t give in to the habit of alcohol. Don’t be an alcoholic. And also do not give it to the children. And give them the knowledge for your country. Love your country. Respect your country. Be happy about your country, because your country means a whole house. The whole country is one. For example, you are prime minister or a president. It means he is the whole country’s head. In that way, it is said that the Prime Minister or the head—so, president at home is not a president; he is with his family. But in his office, his whole country and all children are, for him, like his children. Also, children, the old, or any, all of us are living in our country, and our president is like our father. Then, you come to other countries, you will feel different there, and that will be different. So, we are going to other countries for holidays or something, and we come with good ideas, good things, and we give them our knowledge. So parents are responsible, and parents are that continuity generation. Play with the children, go for a walk with the children, eat good food, go to sleep at a good time, etc. So, I think, in my ways, and those who have families and they want to have a religion, then go to your temple, go to your ashram, go to your church, etc. There, that education has to be taken, because that is coming—that awakening of the consciousness towards the Supreme. So let children play. Give them good food. And we are little children. They like sweets. It is good, but clean your mouth. And don’t give in your mouth all the time, chewing this chocolate or what is that? Chewing gum. Chewing gum. Not chewing gum. Also chewing gum. Chewing gum. Yeah, chewing gum. Like this. And all the time, this is in the mouth for children. The dentists are very angry. They said, "Please don’t destroy the teeth of the children." So we have to take care of the food like this too. Milk is good for children. The mother’s milk is first, and after also cow mother, or the goat, like this, which milk you like. The milk brings the brain and health very good. But of course, some people, children cannot, so parents should know which milk they should have. So in Hungary, all my dear friends, disciples, and these children, I’m very happy to listen from them, and they listen from me. I wish you a good life and good education. Take very good care of your country and other countries also. Become a great person. This is your life, and one should not only say, "I will not work," many things like this. So, children, it is good to give them toys, but not too much. There are many things to tell about children, but I think your parents know more than me, and I tell. You all, my dear brothers, you are parents of your children from your country. I do not want to give you knowledge, something. You are great in your children, and please take care of it. I’m not giving you education that I am good. I’m very good, but first are the parents. And I want great respect for parents. And my words, with great love, for your children also. With this, all the best, and see you again. Siddhi Pāna Bhagavān Kī Jaya. Devādhi Deva Devī Svara Mahā Deva Kī Jaya. Alak Purījī Mahādev Kī Jai.
