Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai, Devādhi Deva, Deveśvara Mahādeva Kī Jai, Satguru Svāmī Madhvanānjī Bhagavān Kī Jai, Alak Purījī Mahādeva Kī Jai. Good evening to all our dear sisters and brothers around the whole world, in yoga and in their lives, centers, ashrams, practitioners, teachers, and so on. I also greet all other yoga schools, yoga ashrams, and yoga practitioners, all who are doing different kinds of yoga; they are doing it greatly, and I respect them. I respect all people, no matter their religion or country, and those practicing different kinds of techniques. I look forward to us all becoming a brotherhood throughout the whole world. A stejně tak zdravím i všechny ostatní lidi různých náboženství ze všech zemí, kteřÍ každý má svou cestu, a já je všechny respektuji a zdravím, a jsem rád, že se snažíme všichni o bratrství. In every country, there are all different kinds of people and their governments. Whether governments are good or not, I don't know, but I think all are good. We should respect them and help them so they can do good for our countries. A ve všech zemích jsou občané a vlády, a vlády jsou dobré nebo nejsou dobré, to já nevím. Ale myslím si, že všechny vlády se snaží být dobré a měli bychom jim v tom pomáhat, v tom, co dělají. Today is the second day of the New Year, and time is gone, past. Where we are in that time, we are. The future, for example tomorrow, and one minute before, we do not know how it is. So, every day is a day. Every day is the first day we have the day. Our day which passed is gone; we can remember, that's all. The future we want to think about, but it is still not there. Therefore, we should live our life at present, according to that. Whatever is from the past has become for us a kind of thinking, or just making a story. Se pro nás stalo nějakými myšlenkami a příběhy. That story and beyond. A je to příběh, který má různé podoby. A v současné chvíli jsme v těch příbězích, které chceme vytvářet. A zítra nevíme, jestli to bude takhle dobře, nebo ne. Takže, jak dlouho budeme mluvit o dnešku? Even today we don't know. It is only at that time that we can breathe in and breathe out. Taking the breath out is no problem. It will be the last as a first, but the breath which we are inhaling is just our border. Now, how will we make our breath again go from in to out and again come in? Breathe in. This is what we can say: the end, or the past, or the future and present. So everything is in our prāṇa. Prāṇa. And prāṇa, many times we think someone died. But still, there is prāṇa inside. Somehow, the prāṇa is moving inside. Many times we say, "Some person died." A doctor said there is no pulse, no heartbeat, no breath. Eyes are closed or open, and we say it is dead. After a certain time, again, one breath in, and we come again, like we said, "Oh, it's again. He will come back." Thank you, God, thank you. So, how is the prāṇa moving? The prāṇa is like a thread; we are on the thread, hanging on the thread. And so yoga said, and the yogī said, how to live with the prāṇa. Many people now in the world are doing that, and they say they don't eat anything and they don't drink anything, only with the sun energy. Many are standing and looking, gazing towards the sun. The sun rises, and before the sun rises, there is a morning, we call it Brahma Mūrta. At that time, the energy in our body begins, all cells, everything. And when the sun sets, the time, all systems inside should be relaxed, very comfortable, and their inner machines are functioning. For our hearts, for our kidneys, all inner things, that kind of energy is there, moving. It means our inner engineering of our bodies, and they are all giving each other all instruments in the body, or any of the muscles, all of the stomachs, kidneys, etc. In that time, when we are deep sleeping... Yesterday, the day before yesterday, I was telling, it's called the Jāgrata, Suṣupta, and Svapna. In these three different states, what is happening in our body? So suṣupta, i.e., sleeping, there is complete relaxation. Then, something which is, we had something which we want to know again, that I want to go, I want to see. And that is what our ātmā, jīvā, is going as a svapna, the dream. And we want to enjoy or be one or something with our body, or from the past. Past means when we were awakened, where we had different kinds of problems, happy or unhappy, joyful or very terrible things. This all begins from the past and that comes in the svapna. And those who have no svapna, only deep sleeping, is very rare; you have deep sleep. Because when we are awakened, we are outside, and when we go to sleep, we are going a different way. So, where is sleep then? Mahāprabhujī has written in his book that a yogī knows what is the yoga nidrā. Then they can go through the dream also in yoga nidrā and will get very pure, good things in the dreams. And if there is something negative, they will try to get rid of it. Birla means very rare. A very rare person can. They are the sent yogīs, or you can be a yogī. It means not only that you did not marry, or this and that, or you run away from families and this. This is nothing. When we go to sleep, then we go to our Brahman, so Brahmāstra inside. So suddenly you sleep, and there is a dance inside. You don't understand. You see, you don't feel that. It's like a flute or some resonance where you don't feel anything; you sleep. But that is called snoring, sleeping. But we ourselves cannot listen. That is like, it's called, like a Brahmaloka. No problem. No unhappiness, completely in... That's good, very good. But other neighbors sleeping near us, they are suffering because they are out. If you can also be going in that snow rink, then both will synchronize. But they cannot. Their energy is different, and their energy is different. Yoga, with the svara yoga and kuṇḍalinī yoga, nāda yoga, etc., that we have to achieve. And so then, snoring is there, and dreaming is somewhere else. And when somebody says, "Hello," you wake up. I was having a dream. It was a very nice dream. They said, "No, you were snoring." So, what is the difference between snoring and dreaming? And what is the jagratā, living? Awakened. This, if a yogī who's, then he can go further, writing lectures, reading the books, giving the stories, everything, and we think, oh, he's a very great person. But ask this person, and he cannot tell. He cannot tell, and he does not know what is going on. I do not know. That is not snoring, and dreaming is not under your control. Only that yogī, that guru, but we call param-gurus. They can give inside one key. That is very important. So, I am sitting here, every day I am talking lectures, all learning something, and always I try to come to do a look in the one book, and then I said, "OK, I will see." I'm sure, I tell you, I don't read even half-past a book. But what I don't know, and I try to see in that some book, something... Then I said, "Okay, I will." And so, when I read something, I will tell you this morning or evening. And then I am sitting here on the coming to this siddhe, the Gāḍī, Guru Gāḍī. It is the seat of God. It is Viṣṇu, Śiva, Kṛṣṇa, etc. This is a Gāḍī, and that if you sit, then you should not say that I am sitting on such a good seat. But you should know that this seat, this sitting, when you touch, comes in, then you have a beautiful energy round and round. But if you said, "Now I'm happy, and I'm a great person, and everyone has put me in this seat here," very good. You can sit, but it will be like this. Yes. Therefore, Gurū Gadī. For example, you people know here in Europe the Christian religion. And they call the Pope. And, of course, only the Pope can sit on this chair. And he has also one daṇḍī stick, and that is, they call this stick for the sheep. So the shepherd has in hand the stick. So when he takes the stick, and he is a shepherd, then we are all the sheep. So when the pope is sitting there and has the stick, then all Christians say they are like sheep. And if the others say to other gurus, we call them disciples. They are also like this now, as our bhaktas, our children. But if you think that you will listen, and I like this, like this, and then you go. So, this is not who is coming and going down to know anything. So every religion, the religion they are controlling together, bringing. Day by day, one, two, one, two, more and more are coming. And one has to be the head. Similarly, in this way, in our day, our dreaming, we are awakened, sleeping, dreaming, etc. Where is that? Where is that soul? The jīva. You think the jīva is hanging inside? He is outside. We don't know where it is. Maybe there is only some sound. So, know how to know. Then, is that yes, you are a yogī, and we will go now through that path. So, prāṇa. Prāṇa, śvaryoga. Learn, we will learn, and in the summer we will make a very big, nice program. So, my dear, there are many things, and you know that our Ārādya Bhagavān Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Mahāprabhujī is great, great. He is Brahmā, God. It is said, Holī Gurujī said only what was the Mahāprabhujī. Many they know, but they have forgotten. It is only second generation, third generation. And now, this—what do we call them? Different kinds of people have children, further and further. And they don't know what they want. Because one bhakti, or the parents, give that knowledge and everything, all spirituality to their children, then it's okay. But they cannot see it, and it is gone, far away. But now it is a long time, a few years, since our Bhagavān Śrī Madhavānandjī Bhagavān passed away. You may have had darśan, so Gurujī was in the last times trying to stay more in Kathu, and in a barricade. And mostly Mahāprabhujī was living in a barricade in a village. And Mahāprabhujī had a beautiful little cottage, and people were coming, all sitting outside like this. And when the Holy Gurujī was there, then Holy Gurujī was in the sevā. Seva means taking care. Many people come, sādhus, but they could not stand. Because also Mahāprabhujī is Mahāprabhujī. And when Mahāprabhujī sits and closes his eyes, then it's maybe two or three hours. And people came and they were sitting there, and sitting there, and then after, they were families, little and so, after this we are sitting and sitting, he doesn't open one eye, let's go. Mahāprabhujī's eyes were closed, and when they opened, so Mahāprabhujī said to Holī Gurujī, "This person, how was it that I was thinking, I was talking with him inside?" But Gurujī, you did not talk with them. Yes, because they are blind. Their eyes are closed. I was awakened with him. Mahāprabhujī said, "Holi Gurujī," and Holi Gurujī was holding his hand like this. Holi, Guruji cannot say no and yes. Listen. Many things. We made a new house, buildings in the barricade, and it's called Śhiv Bāg. Śhiva Bāg. Śhiva is Śhaṅkar Śhiva, and his park. There was nice green. Now Holy Gurujī made one room for him there somewhere, and Holy Gurujī had a small room for himself there. Unfortunately, I made one mistake. It was a little like a cottage of Mahāprabhujī. I disrupted it, and we gave a big building. Many, many rooms for our bhaktas and all. Guruji didn't say anything, because this was a little place, only about, let's say, 20 square meters, or even a little. One little room where Mahāprabhujī was sleeping, and very little, two by two or two by three meters, people could sit there and go. That's all. When I came from Europe, I made a very nice room for Mahāprabhujī, Holy Gurujī, because the village people did not respect Mahāprabhujī very much, but you know, they are just farmers. So what they did when Mahāprabhujī was not there, Holi, Gurujī was in other countries, and so, and there was little, this area, only that much, where I am here, tell you, let's say, 5.8 square meters. And the rest, all people took the land and this and that, and people put inside goats and something, and people were playing there something, and like this, so it was not anymore that is Mahāprabhujī. And they were making, with the stone, some kind of a playing. And that's why I thought it has not anymore there. Well, when I came from Europe, I came to Barikatu, in Barikatu village, that Śiva park, Śiva garden. And people were there, about always our bhaktas, foreigners, many, many. Always they come to Gurujī's darśan. So I went to Guruji's room. Guruji also had one room and a verandah, very nice. Because Guruji said, "Put me in this room where I came, I faced towards where Mahāprabhujī was," and Mahāprabhujī's āśram is also in Kacharas. He wants to know where that is now. Mahāprabhujī was there, or Mahāprabhujī's side, Mahāprabhujī will touch, or Holī Gurujī, and making mantra. Holi Guruji said once that Mahāprabhujī said to Holi Guruji, Swamimu Madhavānandovī, Mahāprabhujī said to my holy Guruji, Madhavānandjī, the word I should not speak, because I have to say it differently. And said, "Madhav, only just Madhav." But we cannot say this. We will say, holy Śrī Mādhavānandjī, Bhagavān Mādhavānandjī, etc. But the father, poor little child, he speaks, gives a different name, no? So many times he said to Mahāprabhujī, to Holī Gurujī said, what do you wish? He said, just to have the darśan of you all the time. And Mahāprabhujī closed his eyes. What will you do? Your seva. Now you go somewhere in another country and city? He said, "Yes, but only means I see you, only this." Then one day Mahāprabhujī said to Holī Gurujī, my time has come. What do you want or wish? Mahāprabhujī, Holī Gurujī said, Bhagavān Dīp Nārāyaṇ Mahāprabhujī, you will not go. Mahāprabhujī said, "My dear, this body will go. So whatever you want from me, give it to me. I give it to you." He said, "No. No, my money, gold, anything, I don't need anything. Only you. And you, seva for you." Mahāprabhujī said, but I am telling you. This Mahāprabhujī, or Holy Gurujī, said to me. Mahāprabhujī is sitting, and Holī Gurujī is standing with his hand. Madhava, I will go. And me? I will only come there where you will be again. I don't need Brahmalokas, any lokas, only your darśan. That means the disciple, and that is the guru. Not on asking this one and that one, and, "I did this, and I'll be angry," and this and that. Yes, Mahāprabhujī was not so like this. He gave me sticks many times. And many things, but he said, "This is for me." He is giving me more and more blessings. And don't think of the Holy Guru who said, "I don't like this, and why is this disciple for me, and this you are there, and this are no." And so, there I was talking in Badīkhāṭu, in the village Śivbhāg, with the Holy Gurujī. I was sitting, and there is this big, big banyan tree. And Holy Gurujī said, first he had tears, Mahāprabhujī, looking. Holi Guruji saw the tears in his eyes, but it was like only Mahāprabhujī's. And Holī Gurujī said, "Maheśī, nobody has realized Mahāprabhujī." And who Mahāprabhujī was, Holī Gurujī said. These old people here in the city also could not recognize what Mahāprabhujī was. But I can tell you, only this big tree, the banyan, I ask you, only this banyan tree will say who was Mahāprabhujī. And so many things. So that place was where Mahāprabhujī lived. He lived there and in Balagudha and one other place in Harshor. There are also Mahāprabhujī's brothers. So, that is something we say: what is a guru and what is a disciple. So again, one day Mahāprabhujī said, because Mahāprabhujī was buried, his body was old. So again, Mahāprabhujī said, "Not my mother, say something about you, something, what you wish." So Gurujī said, "All the times you are telling, and I don't say, I don't dare to give you, to tell you something that I need. But now I tell you today, because always you said no, Mahāprabhujī. I told you, Mahāprabhujī, and Mahāprabhujī said no. What? Holī Gurujī, want to write your book. All that I have seen, I have spoken, everything. And Mahāprabhujī said, 'No.'" So last time then, Holī Gurujī was standing, and Mahāprabhujī said, Madhavanam, when is your wish, then you can write what you want to write. And then Mahāprabhujī's book, Holī Gurujī, began to be written. Also, Mahāprabhujī said, "Do it sometime." And that happens really when Mahāprabhujī passed away. Then Mahāprabhujī began to write, and you have these holy books. This is like a Bible. It is our Bible, Mahāprabhujī's book. Every word written, what is written inside, who can read and then go to sleep? And so is that. So it cannot be so many, you see. Very rare to get some nice, real pearl. So many are, but Mahāprabhujī and Holy Gurujī will never say anything negative or anything. And Gurujī will not say anything, and Mahāprabhujī, always very, it is like this when we make a pot out of the clay. So inside the pot, we put it with cloth, but like from the cotton. Very nice, very close, careful. And outside we are beating, but inside we are holding that it should not break. So inside is giving love, and outside is giving you something to give the shape. And to give the shape of the disciples, a real shape is not easy. Well, my dear, tomorrow Mahāprabhujī is going to Brahmaloka, and the day after tomorrow, tomorrow is that day when Mahāprabhujī is there and will give the samādhi and everything. And the next day, the day after tomorrow, then some people will come. And otherwise, after 16 days, making some, the bandha. So Mahāprabhujī became one of all and all in one. And then, so tomorrow evening, people will come. Even at night, they are singing bhajans and so on. And in the morning, they will make prayers. And because many people are going to work and so on, they give some prasāda and they go. So for us, tomorrow is that Mahāprabhujī is going to Brahmaloka. So this evening we will pray for Mahāprabhujī, and tomorrow we can give some prasāda or something. Or we can give it evening. So it is like this, exactly according to the Jyotiṣa. And today is the Jyotiṣa. This will be the next day. It means the fourth day. And tomorrow is the third day. According to the Christian book. Is it my calendar? No, inside. I gave you something inside. Okay, so tomorrow, we are on that day fasting. Really fasting. So tomorrow, you can have milk, tea, coffee, and maybe in the afternoon you can have some food, fruit, and in the evening we can make a prasāda. But those who have a disease and want to, from time to time, eat something, then of course we should do so. And if little children, of course, they should eat. So, drink the water, a little water. Some people are what they call addicted to coffee. If you don't eat coffee, drink, then you have a headache. So, of course, you can drink your coffee. But, and medicine if you need. So, at least on Gurudev's day, we say really, and not that between Siddha Bhāskit and Biskit and something this, then it's nothing, water. So we will not lose two kilos in one day, but if you have, everybody, you have some difficulties, some medicines, or the headache, or without this you can, so this is okay, we don't want. So, my dears, tomorrow we are also, we will speak. Tomorrow we have prasāda, we will make it prasāda tomorrow in the evening. So, I wish you all the best, and to know further what I spoke about on this subject. So, we should have Mālā, because according to the Indian time, it is morning, Brahmaloka, about four o'clock or three o'clock in the morning, Mahāprabhujī went into samādhi. At 3 or 4 in the morning, at the Brahmaputra, so it is going today. And in the afternoon, tomorrow is then. After people can, they are making satsaṅg and bhajans and like this, so it's okay. And from tomorrow afternoon, people will celebrate it in larger numbers.
