Swāmījī composed a bhajan. We know that he can write ten bhajans a day; he simply speaks them. He gave us a lecture, and this is a modern bhajan. He does not sit and write; he creates bhajans throughout his day. For us, his lectures are a complete explanation of our path. From many angles and in many ways, they fulfill each one of us according to our heart's tendency, because everyone has a different approach. Swāmījī gives support to each one of us day by day. The refrain of the bhajan Swāmījī wrote is: "Dayālu hamānām apakālina, Prabhujī hamānām apakālina." (You are the merciful one who gave us your name.) Thus, Swāmījī places the weight on the Name. The name of God is God Himself. If you have the name of God in your mantra, then you have God present within you. The more you repeat the mantra, the more it awakens bhakti in you. Why? Because we know that love, that God, is bhakti itself—the pure, selfless bhakti. It contains everything; it is selfless devotion. So, I am getting colored by the color of love within me. The more I repeat your name, Swāmījī is telling us. This is his experience in repeating the name of God. So, through the bhajan, by singing it, we can connect to that experience and manifest it within ourselves. The first verse is: "So, up to now, I never forgot you, my Lord." And I truly hope that I will never forget you. But Swāmījī says, in case somehow I forget you for a moment, "Please, you do not forget me." This is the attitude of a true devotee, a Bhagat. Day by day, the fire of love is burning in me. How to cross the ocean of the world, the saṃsāra? This highlights that saṃsāra is a stage in our life we must overcome, go through, understand, and then let go and pass beyond. How can I cross this ocean of saṃsāra, this life, this world of change that brings disappointment and emotional ups and downs? Swāmījī tells us: the name of the Satguru is a ship—a very big ship that gives us the means to cross the ocean of Saṃsāra, the ocean of Māyā. It allows all of humanity to board and cross this ocean. This is the approach here. We know these two sentences: "I saw the country inside," and "the countries outside of India." I saw countries everywhere, the whole world, all of Saṃsāra. I was traveling; I was in all the Viśva, even extended to the other world. But like you, O Giver, I never saw. You, the Giver, gave me everything. You gave me mokṣa. So, your word, your name, is great. I performed a lot of sādhanā, a great deal of spiritual practice. And I realized all upāya, all means, everything in this world, is just useless. It is unreal. This is my experience. "Esā anubhavakīnā." This is what I experienced in my sādhanā. I saw that this world is something we should see as unreal and come to the reality, the unchangeable. "Śrī Pūjā Bhagavān Dīp Nārāyaṇa, Mahā Avatār Harilīnā." The great Lord for whom we perform pūjā is Bhagavān Dīp, the light of the universe, Nārāyaṇa, Viṣṇu Himself. You are the avatar, the manifestation of God, Hari. You came as an avatar to this world. This is my great wish for you, my Lord. Please fulfill this wish that I will now tell. Please give your darśan to the bhaktas. In this bhajan, it is clear that Swāmījī attained this. He knows the value of darśan. He wished it for all his bhaktas. He attained it through his severe tapasyā and sādhanā over many lifetimes, but this he wished for his devotees. This, he gave us the instruction. I, Maheśvara Nandānandajī, am telling: "I am at your holy lotus feet. I gave myself, my mind, my body—all I gave myself to your holy lotus feet." Through this, I realize.

Teri Bhikī Umar Hari Nām Binā In the evening, to make a small commentary regarding these bhajans. These are two very old bhajans of India, one by Mīrābāī and the other by Guru Nānak, both very well known to us. Many of these saints used images from nature to explain the feeling of longing for the darśana of their Iṣṭa Devatā, and this feeling of remorse, sadness, or frustration. Mīrābāī explains this, saying it is like a lotus without water; she feels she is drying up. In the same way, Guru Nānak describes how pointless life is without mantra, without the Guru's mantra. He says it is pointless. It is like a bird without a wing, an elephant without a tusk or teeth, a son without a mother, a well without water, or the earth without rain. They use these beautiful imageries and metaphors to describe this condition. It is hard to imagine; this is a very high level. These were great saints. I think the only thing I can think to say, to bring it down to earth for the common person, for the sādhaka—normal people like you and me who are trying—is that if we miss our sādhanā in the morning, we miss the chance to have a golden day. By doing this practice in the Brahmamuhūrta, we lift ourselves up. We become more able to rise above emotions and situations.
