We are going for oneness

The path is to transcend the sense of a separate self and realize oneness. Yoga means to unite with the cosmic reality. The individual self is temporary, like the daily sun, while the inner self is eternal light. Do not think only "I am"; countless beings exist within one body. All paths move toward merging into the divine unity of Śiva, Brahmā, and Viṣṇu. If one clings to duality and separation, one becomes lost. The practice is to go with this flow toward unity, not against it. Ultimately, the body returns to dust, but the pure consciousness remains. Continuously remember the guru and the divine name to connect with that light. All gurus and traditions lead to the same one reality.

"One in all and all in one."

"Gurudev, Gurudev, Gurudev."

Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai, Devādhī Deva, Deveśvara Mahādeva Kī Jai, Satguru Svāmī Madhavānandajī Bhagavān Kī Jai, Alak Purījī Mahādeva Kī Jai, Satyasanātan Dharma Kī Jai. Good evening, my dears, sisters, brothers, yoga practitioners of Yoga in Daily Life around the world. Yoga in Daily Life is spreading like the rising sun. Peace, peace, peace. Yoga is vast, extending above this world, above the ocean, the waters, and the earth—everything upon it. Let us delve deeply to understand how far we are and when we will transcend everything. It is just a glimpse, but that ātmā, the jīvātmā, is constantly everywhere with God itself. Ale tento Brahman. They are all protecting us, but from time to time, they also need to change. Yoga means to unite, so that we become one with the cosmic. Yet, as we are, we are temporary on this earth. It is like this: how long do we have the sun, and when will it be forever the sun? Through that sun, to go beyond, we cannot do anything. We should simply go in that direction. Let it come to the direction. It is like when a very strong wind comes, and in that… everything is going with it. Sometimes it is in darkness, but we, in the darkness, are as a light. Let us continuously know that we are always moving forward to our destination. The destination is one in all, as our Holy Gurujī said: one in all and all in one. This means we all meld into the gods: Śiva, Brahmā, Viṣṇu. In this way, our Yoga in Daily Life, all yoga teachers and practitioners, we are all on the right path. Every path is different, but day and night we are continuously… let us be on that path. Do not say that only I am alone. You cannot say that I am only on the one path. You are not only on that path. It is like when the ocean is moving; you know how much water is moving with it, and many creatures are also inside. Do not say, "I am only me." We shall take all together. In our body, how many jīvas, how many cells? It is unthinkable, uncountable; we cannot even see how many there are. That one jīva has an immense number of jīvas inside. So how can you say, "Only I am, only me"? No, we shall come to the oneness. Like the whole ocean moving many things, the whole earth is also oneness. The wind, the air, is also not only a little bit—it is all complete. And then the light: light is not like when it is dark in a room and we make a tiny light. That is a very little tiny light, but the whole room has light. If you cannot see it, then close your eyes and see within thyself. You will see, after you open your eyes, that tiny flame makes the whole room light. How will you count that? Similarly, we all are one, and one in all. When you see only "I," "me," what happens? Your flame will go on, and it makes the dark. For that one is always, then all dark. So what is that knowledge? The jñāna. There are many different kinds of jñānas. Even this light, these flames, are temporary. Even for us, the sunrise is only for a little time, and then it is dark. But our jīva, our ātmā, has no darkness. That is like the sun within us forever. That is why we all, myself included, are on the path. I am not only at the place where I have achieved; I am also on the path, and not only me. With me, it is like a big, big… so the wood on the wave, not the clouds. The sound, it is a sound. A little sound, how quickly it goes like that, or the wind. Wind is not just like this in our finger; we see our self only, but all this wind is going with us, in oneness. We have to come to oneness. There is no duality; there is not just me and you, etc. We become one, and from one we become two, and from two we become one again. If we do not have this oneness, then we are lost on some other path, on the other side. That is sādhanā. And sādhanā is not only this physical body and all this that we call practicing. This is just like a bubble of water. How long will it be? We are the bubbles, but what was in the bubbles? That is how it will again become one. In many things in yoga, one thing is that I am human. And all other creatures are also. God has created them. Chora Silak Jīva, Chora Silak, and that all is one. Chora Silak, 84 points of this. What should we do? We should take all in us. And we should be all in all, one. If a big wind comes, a very nice wind is coming, and a big tree goes with the wind a little bit, going to the wind side, it will not break. But if this tree goes over to the other side against the wind, then that tree will break. When the flag is going where the wind is going, the tree will not break. So we have to go with oneness. Otherwise, temporarily, I only think, "I am and me. I am the highest of all." No, it is not like this. Become one. We are looking for oneness. Time is going very quickly. When and how we entered the mother’s womb, and how it was, we cannot understand. Then the embryo comes out and continues till the end of life. Again and again, this jīvā goes, like a space only. So in the womb of the mother and outside on the earth is only suffering. But sometimes we are happy, enjoying. Yet every joy is not that joy. That joy is not that joy which will enjoy that which you want to enjoy. Again, that jīva merges into the others. When there are clouds like a fog, where there are very fine drops, and it is just in the space, but again it comes together, becomes the drop, and falls down. It does not go up again to the ocean, though it is on the earth, but that goes to the water again. And how is water coming? Where will it come? What happens? Therefore, we should become one, not separate, not fight. My country, their countries, that country, these people, those people, our people—this is a dualism. And when the dualism is done, you cannot pass through this. What do you want to achieve from this earth? And so it is like Alakpurījī. The Shiva times, Satya Yugas, and from there still a little is from Ālagpurījīs. It is in us, and that is why it is coming again there. When there is a tree that has fruits, the fruits will fall down under the tree. But the leaves of the tree will go with the wind. Where the leaves will fall down, we do not know—beyond the other mountains. When will the leaves come back to that tree? The fruits will fall down and again give new trees. So hold ourselves all together, like the fruit. One day it will fall from the tree. One day, from the mother, the child will also go. The mother dies, the child is alone. Here, our father, but we have to continue, and we will be there somewhere. So this is that we should not try too much only for our body, our feelings, our ego, my country, my money, this and that. At the end, it is only one. We are in the physical body; we are grown from this earth, and we will again fall on the earth, and it will become dust there. But how close were we to our ātmā? Every day we have to do so many good things. But one thing is very important, and that is the meaning for which God sent us in a human body. God said, "Work this year, vegetable, the forest, the fruits, or different things." This is only temporary, but what will go with us in our ātmā is that purity. And darkness, dirt, whatever we call it, remains here, and the pure qualities… the light, and the light is the light, and finally, that light is the space. O my dears, think of all. Do your mala, mantra, all the time, your guru mantra. Do not forget, otherwise it is not very long, but very short. For example, many sādhus, many saints say, "Gurudev, Gurudev… Gurudev." And gurus, but the name, the quality, Gurudev, only Guru. So you can talk Hindi, Sanskrit, or English, or Czech, Slovak, or any other. Only that one. Gurudev, Gurudev… Gurudev. Constantly, we are hooked with our Gurudev. So even Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva, you know that? In the old books, the guru, Jesus, is not a god. He has his god. He said always, "I am only your disciple." That is it. But when the light comes from one room to the other room, it is the same light which is in our room. So there are two rooms, and one says, "Yes, I have my light there," and you say, "I have my light there." And if we break one wall, then this light is the same. So, it does not matter who your guru is, in which religion, where, or what you think that. But all you want is Gurudev, Gurudev, Gurudev. And when you say this, "Gurudev," automatically you are Mahāprabhujī or Satguru Swāmī, our Madhvanājī, Bhagavān, Gurudev, Holy Gurujī, or Alakpurījī, or Devapurījī. Immediately, we need not tell his name. How is it, and that? Holy Gurudev, and our consciousness is already there, this light to light. There is a mantra, maybe short, maybe long, or like the prayers, etc., that we should also learn and know. That is very, very important, because that is Vijñāna, the Jñāna. So we call it Jñāna, and they call it Vijñāna. So Vijñāna, the science. Yes, and the science, that is called research. So research. We have already, but we are searching, lost. So we have that, not only try to get something. So that research, research, your ātmā have all researched, but we said again we will research, and of course they are doing great things. Many things they are researching from that again, so research again. I got this again, something, I got it. But we do not have that. We are not searching. We are… so what should we search? Anything, and that is Gurudev. Gurudev is one, but many times you see that with Śiva and the Jyotirliṅga. And there, who are the bhaktas? Only they came to Śiva in the Śiva Liṅgam. Shiva Liṅgam means his energy, his light. We are holding his blessings, and so Shiva, Shiva, Oṁ Shiva, Oṁ Shiva, and Oṁ also take it out. Shiva, Shiva, Shiva. Shiva is all, our Viṣṇu. So as much as we can bring that name of that guru, devas, into our heart, not Brahmā, Viṣṇu, or Oṁ, Sao, Aṁśa, Guru, Brahmā, all this, put it outside. Mahāprabhujī, Mahāprabhujī,… Gurudev, Gurudev,… Guru Dīp, Guru Dīp, and so on. But I am not telling only that, my gurus, you should do. If you look anywhere, there are those who have got mantras and the like. That is all. There are millions of gurus. So this is how we should go further; we should always go further up. If you cannot practice āsanas, you cannot do other practices, or prāṇāyāms, or kuṇḍalinī, or dhyāna. Everything is very good, and we should do it, but finally, there is only one Gurujī. That one thread I am holding, Gurujī, I will not lose it. I will not, and please do not break this thread. Therefore, Oṁ Namaste Śrī Gurudev Puruṣa Dayālam. Nijānand Ānand Māyāke Ālam. Sarīraṁ makhaṇḍhari rūpa jāsē, atit anādi nirākār bhāsē, agam ajoni apāra aliptam, savrūpa śuddhavam sadā yogī japattam. This mantra is stuti. Tato, stuti. So, two I have told you yesterday. And there, so, agam ajoni, agam. Ajoṇī Atīt means endless, Anādi, beyond of the beyond, Nirākār. There is no any border, Bhāsī. There I am in oneness, Agam, beyond Ajoṇī. You are not born, a part endless, a libtum. I am completely free from this svarūpam, the form svarūpam, śuddham, pure, sādhā yogī japātam. And all yogīs are practicing this nirākār nirañjanam, namo sarvabhyāpi. Everywhere, I am. Namo. I bow down. Sarvabhyaḥ api, everywhere. Where is that? All you are one? Guṇātītam, from these qualities to the beyond, that further all. Guṇa atīt deva ek deva ho guru deva. Prabhu Deepu ko Mahāprabhujī, Prabhu Deepu ko Dijo Sadat Charan Seva. Mahāprabhujī said, Mahāprabhujī said to Devapurījī, "Prabhudeep, please give me," Mahāprabhujī said, "give me always in your holy feet, my Shiva." Mahāprabhujī said, "Please give me always in your holy feet, my Śiva. Vigan haran mangal karanam." Hey, Gurudev. Vigan means troubles, always. Sometimes I do not like, I do not like, I have pain, I this, all, many things happening. My car is not good, my person is not good, that good, this, that, this. Vigan. Vigān means various troubles: "I do not like this, I do not want this," etc. When we come to the house, there are troubles; we go out, there are troubles; in the office, there are troubles. All the time there are troubles, so, O Gurudeva, Vighnaharaṇa, please take all these troubles out. Mangal karana. Mangal means good things, very nice, whatever you want to think, whatever you want to have. Mangal ānanda, mangalam divine. Mangal karana, so please give me always the happiness, joy, good. Never have in my thoughts negative thinking or dualities. Dharas, Paras on this earth, Paras above, Bhara Paan. I should be ever in one days. Parvati Nandanamu. Hey, Mother Parvati, Nandan. The Nandan is the Ganesha, Parvati Nandan, Parvati’s son, the Ganesha. I bow down to Ganeshji. Ganeshji removes all kinds of problems. Sri Deepa Sarana Dhar Dhyana. Mahāprabhujī said, "Śrī Deepa Śaraṇa, I am in your holy feet, Dhara Dhyāna." Mahāprabhujī said to Devapurījī, "I am always in your holy feet." When all this we can stuti, take in our heart, after doing so, then we are coming to there: "I am, please bring me into the purities." And that is why, how many hands have the Bhagavān, how many hands have the Gurudev, how many have Śakti? My God, in one Kumbh Mela, the last Kumbh Mela, there was one Ācāryajī, Swāmījī, and he made about a thousand hands Divine Mother. It took him two months at the river, the Gaṅgā River there. And there he made one house building. And what if all the wheels are still not dried, and he was sleeping inside, and one floor up, big, big one, Shakti, and that she has a thousand hands, or how many, I did not count. And then after he made the pūjā, and many people were there, they had a darśan. The Shakti, how much Shakti? So the Shakti is not only one, and Shakti is only one, but she has all, how many hands? That means all power is there. And then after you make pūjā, and then you put it again whole in the Gaṅgā, Shakti Gaṅgā Mandar. So when this… Do the prayers? What is that? Such this kind of prayer and śrutis, in no any religions can be like this. Because it is coming from the Vedas, and it is unbelievable. My dears, we are just like a little mosquito. And if this little mosquito comes and sits on the Holy Mother, we are liberated. And if I will suck the blood, the mosquito, from the mother, holy Shakti, we got it from her, and we become one. Jñāna, jñāna, jñāna and vijñāna. Jñāna and then vijñāna, and so the science, research, science, research, research, the science. We will come tomorrow. It is very cold today, and in many countries there is very hot, Australia and Fiji and New Zealand. So, all my dears, I have to turn my head in all directions. How this Yoga in Daily Life bhaktas, yoga practitioners of the Yoga in Daily Life, they are like on the big, big… so many, like on the ocean, like the, what is called, the… Sand? Eh? Sand? Yeah. Of the shells? Shells. So we are all in one. Namaḥ Śivāya, Oṁ Namaḥ Śivāya. Namah Śivāya, Om Namah Śivāya, Har Har Bholē Namah Śivāya, Namah Śivāya, Om Namah Śivāya, Har Har Bholē Namah Śivāya. Om Nāma Karta Prabhu Dīpa Karta Mahāprabhu Dīpa Karta Hi Kevalam. Om Śāntiḥ Śāntiḥ…
