Many sādhus have said, "Please do not take these flowers." A flower is a living thing. When we cut it and take it, we are taking a life. Many sādhus have advised against this, saying we should let that life remain with the tree or plant, for it is its life. Many people say it should not be done. So we should also try not to do it. Perhaps we should only take what is naturally falling down, or something similar. We take it, give it water, and say, "Please give me your two eyes, my eyes." Which eyes? These flowers. So, it is also not good to take so many flowers. For that purpose, you can do different things or bring other items. Yet, when we go to perform a pūjā, we offer these flowers. Then it is not for me, but for Thee, oh my Lord. I did not see flowers on the altar in the church. Were they there? Did you see them? At Christmas, do they also give flowers? Where? In church, on the altar? Okay, good. I did not see them in Vienna either. So we should take fewer flowers, but let them be beautiful in your house. It is a beautiful, good life. In Binda Āśram and our āśram, if you cannot come every day, then perhaps one person should come each day to light the dīpak, offer a few flowers, and pray. We are doing prayers; we will do them in our ashram there, somewhere, everywhere. We will make the prayers, put something in a machine, and in the morning or evening when you go, take the banner and the prayer will come. You should make prayers, and that is all. But we have to keep living; otherwise, the ashram is there but closed, with nothing happening, and only sometimes people come. That is why I thought, "What is happening? Why?" Something is coming and going that is not good. So at home, your home is also your āśram. Your house, my house—it is a house. So in the house, in the evening, you make a light. Your house is okay; it is very good if you can do this. I am not telling you to perform pūjā in a specific way. But when we have an ashram, then you will see that again it will come, that flames will go again and again. So this is what we have to do: understand when, what, and how, with water and with everything. Many things we will give again tomorrow. Today is already too long, so I will tell you each point one by one. Then you will see, in whole, in our ātmā, in our soul, in our thinking, everything will be very pure and clear. We have to learn. Many, of course, are doing their discipleship very seriously here in this also. Every evening they are making pūjā or something; I know that many do. I do not say that you know what I am doing here, but today I came to one ashram here and they gave me something to learn. I never tell anywhere like that, but then I found it, and so I said, "Thank you, Mahāprabhujī, please, thank you. It is my mistake." I said, Mahāprabhujī, Devpurījī, Holy Gurujī, it is my mistake. I should have taught that—what and how we do everything. We will again be coming back to very great things. And now we have to do very much ourselves, very, very much. Look at what is happening in the whole of Yugoslavia—not just Yugoslavia, but all these countries, in this part, everywhere. So now we have to give power. Power is not eating power, but that kind of power. My God, please, I am. It is coming to us. It is coming to us. And also, we have to give it to our children. I know that in our children, wherever they are, in any country, their children are coming, and the children are so happy and so good, and they have been given this knowledge. There are some children who are not respected even a little, but they do not want their parents because the parents have not learned; they did not know. So, this is very good. See your flame. We have two: one is this blank here, and one is in our sight. What is my flame inside? That I am still life. What is life? That is here. So it is not only this light, but this is living life, living life. It consists only of this: the glass, the ghee or other kinds of oils, then this, the net, and the flames, and done—all in the space. That is life already. And so, when life goes, then we will say it. "Oh light, mother, mother, I go to sleep and my light will be there." Do it. But one thing also, please: a mistake can be made. It has to be done very nicely. Otherwise, in the house, it will catch fire. So we have to make this in such a way that it cannot fall down inside. And if it falls down, it should still not burn anything. That we have to do. And do not bring the hands of little children near the fire. There are many things you have to learn—your families, your fathers, your mothers, your other friends. We have to go quickly. And water—water is great. So, what we have in India is "Jal Jahā Jagadīś"—where there is water, there is God. And what they said here, the Czechoslovakians, or what they are telling in yoga... "Bodha Jīvot." So, "Jal Jahā Jagadīś," and life, water—they said it means "Boda Jivot." Only water can give us life, because this life is in us, all on this side. So please, do it at home and in our ashram, somewhere, everywhere, morning and evening. You can take only five minutes; that will be enough. But if you can do more, it is okay, for this is living all the time. Practice, practice, practice. So light is the light. And when there is no light, it is dead. And then, humans—we have to bring the humans to what we are. Why are we talking bad things to others? No. We are humans. Okay, we sometimes say, "I do not like you," and that is okay. But not that we kill them, or this and that. A human cannot do that, and that also means not killing animals. Otherwise, it will go, because it is that. Yes, my dears, maybe you do not like what I told you, but I am only telling you this will be the best and the good. Look at our Nṛsiṁha Purī, the Nṛsiṁha. And nursing and nursing's husband, her wife, they became like one of the best. And you know how much they have done and what we have not done. I have also tried and worked, and over the years and years, I have come to bend. And so, this ashram—he has made the weather nice. And he said, "Always you can have lectures, and it will be more." And he will make one temple. He wants to make it beautiful from India. He brings some things, so that is okay. So, what we have, you know, is that many years ago we had the Hindus, the traditions of our Hindus. So we will do this, but do everything. You see the Muslims—how many times are they making prayer? Morning, early morning, one time, middle of the night, this. Some pray three times or two times. And every child, girls and boys, they are getting it exactly, very much. No one can run away from this, no. And they are all telling about Allāh, or what we have as God—they have Allāh, and we have Allāh. But they are very respected in that way. What they are doing, they are this. Mahāprabhujī’s karaṭā—they are selling it in Germany, in London, and this is very much. You see, why? Why do not we? We need Jesus, and for that, now we are going. This means it is going down and down, and so we should believe. And when the belief is there, then is our success. Purījī Prakāś, Purījī Prakāś... Quite in this, that way. So, as night, you will understand and see your pūjā. And we have mantras, our mantras. And you know how many yoga techniques, very, very much. And now it has come again—many exercises that are from the Nāḍī, Brāhmārī, many points coming. "He Kevalaṁ He Kevalaṁ..." This is living life. Adió, my dears. Oṃ.
