Atma resides in all creatures

A spiritual discourse on the soul's journey and universal divinity.

"God is not there only once. God is not there only once. God is not there only once, but in our Sanātana Dharma, Where does it happen? It happens in the Paravara Brahma Ātmā."

"A drop of water and the whole ocean are the same inside... Therefore, what we are doing, pūjā, prārthanā, so Father, first, what is a mother? One God comes."

The speaker delivers a satsang, weaving together themes of non-duality, using the metaphor of a drop merging with the ocean to describe the soul's union with the divine. He discusses the human birth, the role of parents and gurus, the cyclical nature of existence, and advocates for compassion towards all beings, concluding with an anecdote about providing water for ants.

Om Namah Śrī Prabhu Dīpa Nārāyaṇa Hamsavādāsa Prabhu Śaraṇaparāyaṇaṁ Hamsavādāsa Prabhu Āyaṇaṁ Om Namah Śrī Prabhu Dīpanārā... Śabdās praśaraṇa parāyaṇaṁ, śabdās prabhuśaraṇa parāyaṇaṁ, śabdās praśaraṇa parāyaṇaṁ, śabdās prabhuśaraṇa parāyaṇaṁ. Hama śabdasa Prabhupāda parāyaṇaṁ, hama śabdasa parāyaṇaṁ. Oṁ namaḥ śrī Prabhudeva. Oṁ Namaḥ Śrī Prabhudeva Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Devādhi Deva, Devapurīṣa Mahādeva, Madhvanānjī Bhagavān, Satya Sanātana Dharma kī, Oṁ Śāntiḥ, Śāntiḥ, Śāntiḥ. Āradhī Bhagavān, Devādhī Deva, Devpurījī Mahādeva, Devpurījī Sarvatra, Purī Sansāra Mein, Devpurījī Mahārāja, Unke darśan karne wāle bahut śakti bhī dega, bhakti denā, jñāna denā, ṛddhi siddhi denā, har prakār se Devpurījī Mahādev. And Devpurījī did not go out of the temple. But where he is sitting, and how many kilometers to the other place, Devpurījī's darśan takes place there. In this way, in the whole world, the worship of the Himalayas comes there, and from Badrināth, Devpurījī's cave. There are big leaves and the cave is there. They don't know what they are eating and what they are not eating. In every way, they used to sit there. It is said that inside the Himalayas, inside the mountains, they could get out from there. From there we saw that once, at that time, the British Raj, the British, then one day that British man came, he used to stay there, his own, the one from above. Mount Abu, to waha Mount Abu hai, waha pani ka waha bada nakki, to waha par mandir hai. Bhagvān kā, aur Śyām ko subhe meṁ, sabhī log prārthanā karte haiṁ, to vo āyā, usne kahā, "I have come, you disturb us all, do your worship quietly and slowly, otherwise I will not give it to you." He shut everything down. Now people say, "What to do?" They are British, they are there. So see that in our India, we have Brahmins, Viṣṇus, everything. We are Sanātans, so we used to see everyone with love. So before that, there were Muslims among you. They also killed a lot of them in our country. Either kill them or become Muslims. And still, all the Muslims, what caste do they belong to? That was that, this is that, this is that. They are still the same, so they all have that name; this is that. But he said, "We have converted Muslims." After a long time, what happened after that? The British came. The British came and took the Muslims away. They came and took them away, so we took them and stayed under them. But they didn't give us their religion, but he kept everyone under him. After that, he sent the British people, too. But he gave the country of the Hindus in Rajasthan. But he is still above them, but it is enough. So, our people of India are so good that we are there. If someone comes, we will serve him. He would do this and that. While doing this, he separated our people, and it is still happening. Even then, our Gandhījī and all the others have brought our country back. But now they have come back. They are different. Some belong to whom, some belong to what, some belong from there. And now he has brought them in the middle. All of us, all the people of India, have come to realize that we belong to God. God is the only God, and God does not take the flesh of Madhira. So, how much worship we have, how much worship we have in the temple, how much worship we have in all the places, and how much worship we have in the other places, God is not there only once. God is not there only once. God is not there only once, but in our Sanātana Dharma, Where does it happen? It happens in the Paravara Brahma Ātmā. And from there, that Jīva which comes, and in the human body, from there, in the mother, in the mother,... In the mother, in the mother... In the mother, in the mother... In the mother, in the mother... In the mother, in the mother,... gradually, for nine months, the mother gives birth to a child. And that child is a human being. Out of the 84 lakh animals, all of them are animals. One animal eats the other. This one, that one, that one, so they have to come and go. Then God said, "I give you a human being." And I have given you all kinds of human beings. So he became like a demon inside him and said, "Now we will see God, Brahma, and we will come to you." So from here, he became two. One is that such people have been created. The other is that by doing everything of God, of Rāma, he has come like this, and he is going to the Lord. The other will come back, whether you believe it or not. And the creature that comes back is in the water, in the sea. And from the sea, the water goes to the sky. And in that place, there is a drop of water. There is one drop. In our hand, we give one drop of water. An ocean is very big here. There is one drop only, but that is also itself the ocean. That drop of water from our hand, we pull it down immediately. What happens? What is the whole thing? The whole thing, there is one drop. Where did it go? We don't know, but it all becomes one in the same way. Even if it is a small animal, it also has a living being, completely small, and an elephant also has it. All of them are one, and the one who... Lives in Jeeva Jeeva, Jeeva Jeeva Bhakṣyate, Jeeva Jeeva Bhakṣyate, all eat Jeeva Jeeva. But O human beings, God has given you. Now, if you will do this eating and drinking, then you will be in a state of bliss. And if you will be like this, you will not drink, you will not eat, you will do this, then you will be in Brahmā Brahmā Ātmā. So they are not going to tie it now. So when from there, in the stomach of the mother, when the drop comes, and the mother is tied from there, and in front of it, everything becomes a human being. So, O human being, now go to God. Go there at that time, and then we will go to the other side. If they are still eating this and that, then it is not for all. Doesn't matter. So it is said that when anyone will die, Even a little mosquito, that also has a life inside. and haṭhī, all animals and humans, everyone in their body, But when we will die, any person will die, there comes ātmā, in that all will come. Now we say we are this, they say we are good, my God is this, my God is that. Yes, but where is that going? When we die from this body, that inside is gone. So we can say, "My body is this, my me, I am like this and this." But inside that was Parabrahma, Parātmā, that becomes one. And it comes there. Those who are pure and good, it goes to the Parabrahma, Brahmatmā, and becomes all in the open, all in the space, on the space. And the rest, so again comes the end of it. So we said, where is this person going? Many say, we said, "My father, my mother, my this," maybe they said they are coming again here or be there. We don't know if we are going to be humans, animals, or something. We are going to, for that we have to, because the soul, ātmā, jīva, that is also. A drop of water and the whole ocean are the same inside. Therefore, what we are doing, pūjā, prārthanā, so Father, first, what is a mother? One God comes. But we have, first comes this ātmā, jīva, mother, child, and further, mother and father. Father and mother are our Bhagavān. And then further, they are going further and further. Then they are coming, who is coming, doing peaceful good for everyone. If you are the family, husband and wife and children, but they are so spiritual and they are everyday doing pūjā, they are like Mahātma, Śiva, and there are the sādhus, what we call they are, and working further and further. Guru. Guru kahā se hai? Guru jo hai, jo koi bhi, anyone who comes and gives help, this is your guru. We are making cycling. That we give the child, or anybody, slowly, how to go with the cycle. Then comes, now we have the car. The car is good, everything is good, but we don't know how to go. So we go, and one person goes with. He is the teacher, he is the master, he is the guru. So from that, the man who is driving is helping, and the other is learning how to ride, but how? Where is there? Inside. And suddenly, I can do everything. But nothing I have seen, but it has given, and now I can drive my car. So what your master was, that teacher is your guru. Then, further, so everyone is that, is the guru. So not only one guru, there are all gurus who have. The child is running, bringing him to give him a hand and go walking slowly, slowly. So that is also Guru. Guru is that which is giving control and everything, and giving. And then there is Parabrahma, Paramātmā, Guru, Satguru. That is giving us for our life how to go, how to meditate, and this. Many, many Gurujī, many, many, and now, how is my Gurujī? He said, "My Gurujī, one is coming from the West, the other is coming from the other, East, West, not coming." And one Guru is giving us meditation or pūjā, the other one does that. So he is the Guru, and he is the Parabrahma Guru. From that, it brings them to the Parabrahma gurus. Otherwise, someone says, "Heaven and hell." In this space, heaven and hell. But heaven and hell, again, are only one ocean and another ocean; that's hell. They are all inside. But gurus, Hindus, Brahmins, what they have learned, they know, they brought, that is from Paramatmā, from there to there, and from down here to there. And therefore, the father and mother give the child, then they give the language and everything. So we each and all should give good to our children. And many, for example Muslims, they are very good Muslims, they are nice people. And so early morning, that time, all children sit down and they make their praṭhanā. What can we learn? Something after, then again they also, in the Śrīyam also, and here our Indians, how many are morning getting up and chant? The children and say, "Oṁ Namaḥ Śrī Prabhudeepa Nārāyaṇam, Oṁ Namaḥ Śrī Prabhudeepa." It will happen. Allah is there. Is God there? Is he not? After that, your children, our children, now we have to give—we are human, and we have to become that kind of human so that we go to Bhagavān, to God. This is the thing, isn't it? Now, what is there? You see that a lot has happened. But now, about 80,000, 86,000, 80,000, slowly coming from there, nearby, the whole world, not only in India, slowly, slowly, all have lost the leg. They say, "Child, it was, go, hurry up. Where is the matter? Where is this?" So we have to learn to be known. We are, and we are humans, and so we know what it is, and therefore we should not kill and not destroy any animals like this. In India, it is now very hot, very wet, and the ants are very dry. There is no water. So the people, they bring it in the house somewhere, in the village, they put something, some bush, some bush, irony, and they bring the bushes and put there, and then a stone on it, so that other animals don't go. And then put the water and from the attā, something. So that is put there. So they eat, and they drink water. And many, many Indians here, people were doing. And now, very rarely they do that, yes. But now it is also, because that was not water, that so like. Now we have water coming from one place to the whole house, and from there we go, the water out and in. So the ants are drinking there. So these are the many things to give life in this. Thank you very much. See you tomorrow. Om Namah Śrī Prabodīpāya Namah.
