Good evening to all brothers, sisters, yogīs, yoga teachers, everyone from Yoga in Daily Life, all the different āśrams, yoga centers, and all other people who are on the way to bring about human consciousness. This is very, very important in Kali Yuga. We are situated between two sides. This is how it must be. What is this? How did God create humans, and what did He give them? What to do and what not to do. We are between both sides. Some say we are good, and others say no, we are good. In this, we have to understand ourselves. It is said: dharma and adharma. Dharma means doing good things. For all other creatures as well, it means not giving them trouble or killing them. That is Dharma. It is even said that if it is not necessary, we should not destroy trees or grass, etc. As humans, we should not kill anyone. This is the first point that God has given to humans: that they should not kill anyone, and not kill for eating. That is dharma. Dharma and adharma. Adharma is the completely opposite direction. First, speaking very badly to others, fighting each other, and doing many things that make other persons unhappy. Then after this, jīva jīva bhakṣate—animals eat animals. But humans are distinct from animals. Therefore, we should not kill, because these animals have no power. If we do this, we accumulate negative karma upon ourselves. So if we kill any animals, it is very bad for us. And if someone kills for eating, this is even more negative. It is said that you are a human only on the outside. Inside, it is like an animal. People may think a great deal and be angry with me, but truth is truth. Killing—what is that? It is pain. If someone were to hold us, cut our body, kill us, beat us, we know how painful a human would be. They would cry, they would say, "Please, don't do it." Similarly, if humans do this to other humans, it is terrible. And humans doing it to other creatures is an even greater sin. A human life is given for dharma, not for adharma. For what are we living? We are not living here just for eating. We came here to come to God's path. We want to go to God, if you want to know what God is. It is said there are three points. One is that we cannot see God, but God is there. Another is that yes, God is there, and He protects us. And third, that God is in your heart. And so, if we cause trouble, it first goes to our heart, and God is inside. And God says, "Don't do this." And our heart suffers greatly. Why? Because then it will go again to the Kali Yuga, or let us say it will go again onto the hill. So, what we call heaven or hell—what if you speak about hell? What is that? We have not seen it, and we do not want to see it. But basically, no, there is no hell anywhere else. It is in this world. It is in those actions we call cruel. It is said that for humans, food is some fruits and what is given: the seeds for us, mother cow's milk, buffalo's milk, goat milk, etc. Milk means the mother. The mother creates, the mother gives milk, so we get milk from animals. The cow is a holy mother, whether you believe it or not, but the cow is the cow. So there is the seed. The earth is a mother. Then, the cow mother, and then our mother. The mother is given. She gives, and that is like milk—not for killing. Oh man, if you do not understand and you do it, then we do not know in which direction we will go. Every religion talks about God, and they all say, "I pray to God." But animals cannot pray, and if they are praying, we do not know. They have no power because humans are too strong. You know, many trucks, truckfuls, they put animals inside—cows—and how many cows they put inside a truck. They fall down, break their legs, have no water. You know many things. Some countries are checking that they should not torture the animals in buses or trucks, to give them water and such, but many do not. It is very terrible, and this is the Kali Yuga that has come, coming more and more. Similarly, also the eggs of animals—or not animals, but the birds. And that is also a mother. She is giving the egg, not for eating. They are giving their children, but people are eating them. So, can you say that from embryos, from mothers, they come out and kill them and eat? And with some other animals, they also take the embryos out and kill them. Oh man, are you really spiritual? You are God's child. This is what we are thinking. Of course, we feel it. And many people and their children eat meat because they do not know what happens. If children were to see the killing of animals in front of them, little children would cry whole day and night. So how do we have it? They put it somewhere outside where they can't see. This is the Kali Yuga. Many do not understand, and they do not, but they will. And more like this, maybe they kill others. But I would say millions and millions of people do not eat animals. There are many, many. Even in Europe, there are many, many who do not eat; they do not kill. So in this way, dharma and adharma: go on the path of dharma and do not go to adharma. Adharma is the path of hell, and dharma is going towards heaven—but first, helping all others, all creatures, and also humans. We go and help each other. So, where is the yoga? Yoga is okay for our health and such, but the real thing is different. It is that we will think of God, and God is in our heart. So, this is very important to practice. Yoga is something everybody does; it is exercise. It is just for our good health, also for our mind. But where is the mind going? Which direction? Because the mind will go left or right, it can be anywhere. So we are human, and it is not so easy to be a human. So how many will come to the cosmic or God or whatever? We said, where is God sitting now? All who are sitting here, all of you are God. Life, your life. And that your life is that, your God. And that your God is very pure and clean, and wants to bring us to heaven. But when you think of other souls, other jīvas, you do not think that you will go to heaven. In this way, practice, and we should come to turn towards ourselves. And in that way, we can do something. Live life, but in the holy feet of God. We are living, so-called living God, and when this living God in the body, the jīvā, will go, then only the body is gone. It is earth in earth, water in water, fire in fire, air in air, and space in space. But where is the Jīvā? And Jīvā is one. Like we have today in Austria, in New Zealand, in Austria, in Czech, in Slovakia, etc. And there is now winter. Today I was looking from my room; outside there was beautiful snow falling. And on the other side was the sun, half, so the sun was there, and the snow was falling beautifully, very peaceful, and the snow is so white you can't imagine. Very clearly inside, this water became the earth, the snow. And then snow will become water. So one, one drop makes the big river. And one drop, all is the ocean. So we are one. We are like a drop, one jīvā. And enjoy your jīvā, yes. In this body, our soul, which is God, and that is enjoying. Physically, we are enjoying. That's it. So this way we should practice and take many different techniques for our comfort, for our good, happy life. Our body should be comfortable, with no pain, to live very happily. And for that, as we are getting ready... We are getting day by day, we are getting older. And so, when old, our body's instruments are getting less and less, but through yoga practice, we can again get our body healthy and good. You know, many people have problems with the knees. For a long time, there were people... I didn't have so many problems with my knees, and now I think 90% of people will have knee problems sooner or later because we did not eat properly and we did not work properly. We only eat and eat and eat. And we take more and more weight in our body. That goes to our knees. First, we have to take away the weight and eat good salad, good mother cow's milk. Some do not eat; they say vegans, they don't eat the cows' milk, animals, they said. The best milk you have is only from your mother. And your mother's milk is like a medicine. So that will be for a whole life; it will keep us healthy. But if the mother doesn't eat something good, then it is like that. You see, one who is eating meat and eggs and alcohol and such, when they are old, you will see what happens. Look in the hospital, how they are. And those who are only vegetarians, proper vegetarians, they will die, but not lost. And then others, some people, they are in old age and have lost everything, and they don't know what to do. Who is that? So, practice yoga, but only certain exercises. Many are now doing too much twisting of the body, and that's not good. You know that in Yoga in Daily Life, it's called sarva-hita-āsana. Sarva means for all. Hita means for them, good. Sarva Hita āsana—that āsana, the prāṇāyāma, etc. And also, God has given beautiful air in the body, and He has given very nice lungs so that good air comes inside and keeps our body always happy, healthy, and long-lived. And many times, they are doing it, they eat tobacco. Holy Gurujī said that even a donkey does not eat the grass of the tobacco. And also, not any other animals eat it. Oh man, how much you have taken from the tobacco into your lungs. Because we were young and this and that, and when we begin to do, then we don't give up. Now we don't give up. Many do give up. Yes, good, good for your lungs, but your lungs are like your house. Your house wall is already destroyed. Therefore, yoga gives techniques, and more, do the prāṇāyāma. That's why the name is called prāṇāyāma. Prāṇāyāma means prāṇa, and prāṇa means the life. That is prāṇāyāma. And now, how do we do prāṇāyāma? Different ways to give our lungs good health. As long as our lungs are good, we get enough air, enough oxygen. Our life will still be long and going. That's why yoga. So, yogīs live many, many years—and many times, on Facebook, they bring these persons—how many years he's still living. There was somewhere, I saw it in the Himalayas somewhere, and one elderly person died. And on the same day, they were putting him in the earth. Burning, so the people said, "He's our father, grandfather, and this, and we will not kill or burn him. We will make a nice, good samādhi." And they put him in the samādhi, so they made a little building, like a little... not a building, but some little temple, and that old man was there, and he was living. They did not know that he is completely not alive. He is not alive, and after certain years, a few generations, the samādhi was very old. So they wanted to take down some stones, to rebuild it, and when they looked inside, the person was still alive. Really it was, and his eyes and everything, but he was like this. Life was there. Prāṇa was there, so life, but one should know if one is really gone or not. And in those times, now you see that in the whole world, everywhere. In Europe also. People were generally over 100 years old, 130, 120, like that. And now, because of too much tobacco and too much alcohol, and I don't know what, there are many things. And so the lungs are cells outside in the lungs, like a needle inside. How long will we be? And when someone is 80 years or 90 years, listen, yeah, my grandfather is dying, but anyhow, he's 90 years, he's very old, and so, OK. 100, 105, 140, etc. The people leave and come back, eat good food. So, we should practice prāṇāyāma, and we will do further techniques about prāṇāyāma after what we call the brahmari prāṇāyāma. And so, let us today again talk a little bit about brahmari pranayama. In this Brāhmrī Prāṇāyāma, which we did, it is like this: the lips are closed and the jaw open, close. Open, close, but lips are there. You will see how beautiful feelings are there, beautiful. In Australia, they have some kind of wooden instrument called the didgeridoo. And how they are making it, I cannot, but they are doing it for half an hour. My instrument is not so long, you know. Beautiful. And all lungs coming out, all dust, everything out. Yes, very good training for the lungs. And at the same time, like in Brahmārī. So that all our brain is, how to say, cleaned. Yes, and the flute also is not that flute having sound, but the person who is learning how to make the sound through the flute. And if we don't have good lungs, we cannot sing for very long, can we? So wherever you are, in whichever country, I will sing a little bit, but I don't have the instrument. The first is the conscience. My lungs didn't go completely down, because in this life now, there is so much dust and so much milk, and everything is, nothing is pure. But if we practice prāṇāyāma, our lungs will be good. Our knees also need the prāṇa there, and the lungs give it to them also. Therefore, we should take our whole body, and so the Brahmari, yes. Many of you have probably heard it in your countries, very... Far you are there, other part of the earth, but our sound is going there. This Brahmari pranayama brings focus to the center of our Ājñā Chakra here. That is a power where many, many energies come here, are collected here, and are given further. Iḍā, Piṅgalā, Suṣumnā, and after that, all techniques, pranayama. So let's come to brahmari. Like one man who is about flying a kite, and then a cobra is sitting there and dancing, and that. A man also, 20 minutes without breath taking in and out. But he's taking the breath in and going out through his instrument, but he's blowing his cheeks like this. And so we blow out our cheeks, and he's taking the breath in and out again, but all the breath is full in our cheeks. They're training, very, very training. It's a very good, long, long training. I have many people there. Now the government has given all these animals, no torturing them. Yes, they have been defended, all with the monkeys and many other people. They were teaching them and torturing them and learning. And it's good, it's good, let them be free in nature. But unfortunately, in the whole world, I don't know why the humans use so many chemicals, chemicals. That's why our age is going lower and lower. The people, after 20, 30 years, are just like there is no prāṇa inside. Hardly they become, until they become 50 years of good health. That's it, because these are all chemicals in the air, in the water, in the trees everywhere, in the earth. It is humans; we are killing ourselves. But there is one country, which is named, I don't know, a little country near the Himalayas, and this, that side, after, in Burma, and there is no chemical at all. Everything is so pure and so clean. And animals are also very happy and all. And why are we so? It is said that even the animals, once they have eaten enough, will leave it there and go. But we are collecting, collecting, more collecting, more collecting. Okay, collect it only for next year. Not next summer or winter, but you need this. So, chemicals, I pray to God every day, "Please, please, can you give the humans some good knowledge and good sense, so that they will not keep this?" And so many, many round-hold people, they are not eating meat and this and that, but are called the vegans. And we shall support the vegan people. With that, I wish you all the best. And tomorrow we will be together again, yes? Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī, Dev Puruṣa Mahādeva Kī, Satguru Svāmī Madhvānandyā Bhagavān Kī, Om Śānti, Śānti,... Om Alak Puruṣa, Alak Prabhujī. Viśva Guru Paramahaṁsī, Svāmī Maheśvarān Nāgarūdeva, Kī Jai. Jai.
