Practise every morning

The human being is a morning realization. Everyone is a gift from God, seeking something through practice. All religions have prayers and mantras for cleansing; Muslims are very dedicated. In the morning, upon waking, open your eyes inside. The first realization is "I am human." What does that mean? We were sleeping, unaware, and now we are. Animals exist, like birds that mourn, but they do not understand as we do. Women are very spiritual in their daily practices. Among creatures, it is said the horse is uniquely "the man." Do not kill hope. Our practice is to open our eyes, say "I am human," and place hands on the earth, our mother. We must not harm the earth with chemicals. We have many problems and doctors now because of our actions. We must return to being human. Think: if I am human, will I kill or eat meat? That is not human. Practice this each morning.

"Early in the morning, they also give mantra. Among them, there are those who can do it and those who should not."

"In the morning, when we first get up, you open the eyes inside... I am human. Yes, I'm human."

This little one is given as a prasāda, a gift from God, just as we offer to God. Everyone, everywhere, is like this. There are many countries, many peoples, and many religions, but everyone is seeking something. This is very good. This practice is for cleansing ourselves. First, we say some names or mantras. Every country has mantras, each in their own language, and they have many. For example, Christians and Muslims. If we observe others, we see that no one is without good; they are all praying. They have prayers in the morning, at midday, and at other times; some only in the morning. But at the very least, at home before sleeping and upon waking, they offer prayer, sitting on their knees. The Muslims always go... yes, to Mecca. So, everybody, look at yourself, at everyone. We also make our practice like this in our meditation. They sit like this, with their hands like this... like this, then they bow their head. So, our head is our head. They go to the earth very much, bowing further and then coming up. There are many things there. Our Muslim brothers, I tell you, are very, very dedicated and good in their religion. Many of them need and come, and this also happens in courses. But as you said, there are many things they do, and they do them for whole years. That is very much. Early in the morning, they also give mantra. Among them, there are those who can do it and those who should not. Those who have done this can say it in the morning, and mostly they are doing very high up, and some are not going up. Some people say it is very good, nice, and not so nice, then they go up there. In the... what we call them... they clean there very nicely before going, washing. And only they can give this meditation or something. Many people say Muslims are not good, and this and that, but it is not like that. It is very great. They see God. Now, we have different ways of what we do. We do this and that for God. So it is God, it is God. We also do it every morning. As I always tell you: in the morning, when we first get up, you open the eyes inside. When we are sleeping and we get up, first the eyes open. That is very important and very good. There, to open one of our eyes, it will see what it is. I am human. Yes, I'm human. And the human—what is the meaning of the human? Every time when we think we are doing very much, so this is the first. It is a first that I know. I don't know. I was sleeping. I don't know how did I... Sleeping, when, how, and it is because of the night. In the night, this is completely blocked. But when we wake up, then we say, "I am." What am I? I am a human. It is said that God said... and there are many, many other creatures. We'll talk many times about animals and this and that, many, many things. They are coming and going, of course. Some animals are very good, but still, they... The biggest two animals you see, we know that we understand a little more, very much: the cows, buffaloes, the others, and even the birds. When certain birds come, He comes there and then becomes like a friend. Only they are together always. And when one dies, then the other one will very soon also die. He doesn't eat. Yes, the boy or the girl—what? Girl, woman. And so when he dies, the bird, the female, and then the other one sees that this one has died, and that one has also been going here and there, and then they die. They don't understand. We don't understand. But they are. We can see in our garden, in our house, there are many birds, how they are coming. At night, when they are doing, where they are coming to sleep, they come beside and they are sleeping. Yes, coming morning, they come, and going there, here, and there. And you know, there are birds, big birds here, and that is a female, and it's going far, it's going away. And the other one comes behind, he's here, again he goes away, he goes back again. You know this boat? She, yeah, yeah... So, and then he wants to step on him again. She goes away, or this, there, and he said, "I do, I will do, I, okay." And she said, "I will, but I don't, not go now, I will." You know, this is how living, yeah, and then comes the other. One day, in the evening, I was seeing very much when I was doing my yoga practice, yeah, yeah. And always, I'm still there, very good. Because there, to there, so also many other animals, so very much. Very much, and when there is a coming, then two. Two is that. Who is that? They don't think it's not good, not me. They are not like this. They go out. But other is like, so in this way, everyone, like humans and many humans, they are doing, of course, also many different and others. So we also, as Hindus, and Hindus have, they have also very much, very, very much. Everyone, it is like they say, one month, one month, one month. In one month, how are you doing something and practicing something? And they're mostly the women, and women are so spiritual, very spiritual, very, very much. And when they are coming, how to do this? When cooking, or the one they will not eat today, or first they will make a prasāda, and this and that, and then prayers, and then doing something. So the women are very, very spiritual, very, very, this is. Mothers and girls, new girls, all the little girls and the girls, they are so much in him, in him, inside. So, but little girls and parents are telling them, and they are really thinking very much. In the school, it goes, now it's different, very much. But the other times... So when they're going to the school, child, humans and humans, but they're all like a brother. They're talking very much, and hello, and this and that. But where parents, with families or with that, they are then thinking for their children, so these girls we would like to have marriage that her, and we will give very much, very much everything. It's not marriage into with anybody; it should come real one. And also the boy, the boys also. And now, also many, many that men here in other countries, many, many, they are also in understanding, feeling. I must say, where they are, where you are, that is this with it. So in that, they are who's getting that? What is merasing? That is like that. And they are all birds, and also cows, buffaloes, they are also, but they are a little bit, it looks like buffaloes, and that is, has to be, is a good, or like this, these animals have this temperament, like this. But they are coming. All the times you will see the cows and that, where they are going, where they are cutting the grass, and this and that. And then the horse, the horse. So now it is said, it is said there is only, there is only one, the human god. This is the, this is that. So, because the females, they are female, but they have different... For example, you are humans, I also. So we are humans, but we are one; we are together both things, one, not only one. Two things we have. So, that human, man, we are a man, but we have here, what do you call that? The chest. The chest, yes. So, it means you are not a complete human. Man. A man? Yes, you are not a man. Yeah. Yeah. Or the woman, also like this. So, you can check everything. Everything you see, every animal you can see, this, yes, but there is only one man, and that is our horse. The horse only, the horse is the man. He has no other things anywhere, only that, only what is man's. What is that? Yes, I was with a lion. Lion? The lion. Yeah, I didn't see the lion. Yeah, yeah. You will look. Yeah. So, and of course, there are other animals, and they also might have... Snake. Yeah, they are also. They have also something, so that difference is... So, human, best is the horse. And the horse is always the best, and always will be the best of all. So don't, please, kill the hope, yeah. You will see, yes, very nice. In a similar way, we are here, and we can see in that way. So it's like I was to tell, in the same way, the Muslims, brothers, wife, we can say they have a lot of things to say, very much about God. But how God they see and what we see, this is the difference. And also the birds and all other animals and everything, and even the ants. And you can see there is a little ant, but this ant is very much there. So it is that in that way we should practice also. And so, early morning when you are sleeping, open your eyes. If you put your eyes on the animals, that is not good. So humans should sleep in that there should be no other animals or anything, birds or anything. There, your mother or your father, your wife, your husband, my children, etc. When it begins to do and wake up, then it's okay. Animals are good, and everybody has all the time with this, and this is okay. But in the night, at that point, it has to come with this difference. And so also, every animal is very, very good. Very, very animals. They are very good. They know exactly, but understand them. Understand them, that so this is that. What we are saying to go in that, how many times we should practice or understand or speak or something about a God? You said, "Who is God?" Very different. There is not God. They are taking... The Muslims don't say there is no God. It... Like this, he, like this, they are, but they have this. The God is that, is that, but not like different thing. So this is a different, we are telling, but it is all that I am. And so the horse, horse, you will see sometimes come and see this with him. It will be very great one, so that people are killing them. That's not. Good many people, they are killing the horse. Many, many things there, you know, yeah. Many times, they... I've saw once that they were bringing many, many horses in, many, many, and they will come near and then like this to like this, and they... Like this, this is all what we do. So we do humans, and we are the humans. And when, if a human does something for other animals, not good, we do them, then we are not like a human. You love that others, or you are killing others. So this is your... It is you. I'm only telling you a little bit, but I'm telling you that it is for you. It is you. You should know we cannot always... and now you see, in this Kali Yuga, Kali Yuga is everything very, very... Very, very, and it is not good. So therefore, let's see, we can do morning that open our eyes and say, "I am human." And you know what means that? We said, "What are you doing? You are a human, yes." When there is sometimes... Anything, this and that. What is, are you not a human? Yeah, so human, so human. And then, open eyes is a human. Then that take their two hands to the earth, on the earth. It means mother. Mother, can I step on you? You? Can I take my mother? To me, that means, so we step over hand, and we say to mother, "I am your, I am your mother." So two mothers are there. One mother is that the human mother? This is not. We have another, and that is the earth, the earth we step on. Earth, and therefore we should not do anything for the earth, like a mother. Be good. So it means that our earth is also... we should have a good earth now. And now we have no good earth. Everything we have, so many, we are cutting this and that. Now we have many on the earth, what were chemicals and this and that. But you can see, you can see really, when you come to Jordan, our ashram, very big land, very big, and we have not done anything with it. And so, it's very nice, everything, cows and this and that, all. It's very good for them, all. But on the other side, you can just say that so chemicals, co-chemicals, and bringing this in, and something will be big because it's something big, but it is not anything and not a health. This is not, but I can do nothing. But if we can tell, and many of you definitely like, for example, Dr. Shanti, and in her house there, and it in-house, she doesn't put any chemicals like this and like this. So many people here in our country also, but mostly, if you can tell the people, the people they said, "Yes, and we do, you know, America." And it all, they come from America. Slowly, slowly, everything, everything is there. And what is that? Why? How did they do some? They said, "We bring the seed, we send the seed, and the seed is a good seed." But they bring the big, nice, and good. But you need, you have to have now the seeds. Every year, you have to give that. And in my house, there you have many years. My seeds are there. Any time, again, you can give it. And they will come again back, this and that. So many people in India, where I am, many people, they said, "Please, Swāmījī, have you more?" We said, because this is the best eating. Now, we all have many, many problems, and how many things we have, can you know that? How many doctors? How many doctors are there, many times? And enough, they are sitting, looking if there's somebody who will come, good. And now it's all doctors there all the time, more and more and more. Why? What is that? This human, they made all this, and that is not good, yes, not good. And now you see that we begin to come again, that we should come again to somewhere, but how can we go? Do this otherwise? We can still, so we are going to. The forest, and this something better, if it's possible. So in that way, we should also ourselves become that we are the human. What is a human? That I open my eyes and see I am a human. So, there, what will we think? For whom will we think? Everything will be very good. Or morning, open the eyes, and I will give this or that and that. Oh my God. So this is, that is why satsaṅg, Satguru Kī Yeh. So, I wish you all the best, and please, always practice in the morning. Only one person, you need not go too much, only one. You see what he said, you? I'm human. And when you say, "I am human," then automatically you will say, "What is 'I am a human'?" Then you will say, we will tell immediately that we are human. But what is a human? What is the subject? I am there in the morning. So tomorrow morning when you wake up, and you are sleeping and open only the eyes. Yes, the first one: I am human. I am the human. We will not kill each other, any animals, and this and that. So, tell everybody, I am a human. Will I eat meat? I will kill that which is. Then that is not. So think, think yourself, and think. You will, and you, many tell, I'm told you many times, so you know everybody. But still, I could tell this. So this is all very good. See you. Thank you very much. Yesterday we had a very nice meditation, and now again it was, but I took this one point from the novel. From the novel, I said a novel is that, so tomorrow, if I'm in a school here in the ashram, I will give, telling something that is a very good. Even our self, so it is like this, for example, that we are making many things, this and that, and wrong, and that and that. But suddenly, because when we do negative things, this and that, it means we don't know where it is, how it is, that it is, who. Are we? How? But on the day when it comes, one day I am human, oh, and then you come. Think, there we will come, there, yes. Om Namah Siddhi Padma Siddhi Padma Siddhi Padma Siddhi Padma Siddhi Padma.
