The Essence of Satsaṅg and the Guru's Grace

The essence of satsaṅg and the Guru's grace is the truth of oneness. Disciples from all backgrounds practice sincerely over many years. The Guru works constantly for everyone, holding the weight of all disciples. The Guru is not an individual but the truth itself, represented by the lineage. A physical temple may be rebuilt, but the sacred truth within remains untouched regardless of form. Satsaṅg is the gathering in truth, where all are one. This unity is permanent, like a needle that once placed never leaves. One should practice this truth daily, cultivating purity in thought and action, recognizing the divine in all.

"Sat is the truth, truth is Sat."

"Once you have got the Sat, then you become the truth."

Oṃ Śāntiḥ Śāntiḥ Śāntiḥ. Deep Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai. Dev Purīṣa Mahādeva Kī Jai. Mādhāvānandajī Bhagavān Kī Jai. Satya Sanātana Dharma Kī Jai. Māta Pitā Gurudeva Kī Jai. We have witnessed profound things and have many disciples. How many of you are like five times my type? Many, many of our disciples are practicing exercises, meditations, and japa with their mālā. I have been in this country for long, long years. You know that some have been my disciples for 50 years, entire families. Many are practicing with their families, as you are thinking. We have to do everything. My dears, you know how many years I have always understood everyone. I have been thinking for this past year that I will give you something. I will give you, we will make like a guru. Guru. What is a guru? There are many gurus, many, many. And it is good to have so many gurus. Guru He, that one. It must not be like this language, like this, my, or other. Color is not, but color is that, is our words. We are, so it is, that all colors, it is just we are taking out from our skin the whole. But that, that I am, how many years practice, practice, I know that. I understand all the times, my disciples, and so you are all very good. You are very good. So I will make many, many of you, and where we are, our āśram, our big, big... our meditation. Nowhere has it been done in that way, no, not in the whole world. And it’s not me; I am only running this, that, this. But you are all, you gave me so much. I am very successful, and I said thanks to all, that we are one, one in all and all in one. So we worked very hard on many things. All my disciples, I see how they are coming. You know, many people go to war and go to other countries and somewhere, and their families, and this and that. But few people told me now, day after also a few days then, and they always said, "Guru Dev, Swamijī, I will never, ever go out. You are my Gurujī," these people said, and this, they put from there, from there, like this, a mālā, a mālā. Many people, and not only Indians, but Christians or Muslims, or everyone—many, many. I don’t tell anyone, Christians or Muslims or this, human, we are in this. So, I would like to do something for everyone who was, however long you were, and I will give you what I give you at Satgurujī kā Disciple. So, Devpurījī, Mahāprabhujī, Madhavānandajī, and I am just holding, I am only holding. And now, I will think of the very, very great weight, the weight, and that is the Guru, the real one, who is all the time holding that. And what is holding? Millions of disciples. And it doesn’t matter if they are Muslims or Christians, or if they are Indians or Americans, Karencia. You know how many worlds I was in, and there are many, many there. Some people go very long somewhere, but they have a mala, they meditate, and this and that. So, in our Om Āśram practice, and that we are, that time I will give you, I will give you like a Guru Satsaṅg. So, you will like this. I can tell you that many of you are so great. Sometimes I cannot practice one day or two days, or one day. I am doing something too much, anything, but you always... You see my disciples here. He is coming like this, but how much he is doing every day. Then, sitting, many are like this. So you are only, what is that? You take this color, but this color alone cannot be. That color is, the color is like this, it is said. If you are, then what is that? The screen, the screen of the body. This is that. And so, this screen, and this is that. This is that one all the time. Don’t do this. Okay, we can put one cloth, other color, this. But it is inside our screen, in our screen. Yes. And so, my screen, I have pulled so much demand, very much demand, all the times, and some days of this, and today, very much, I was thinking that I will give you, and it doesn’t matter if you are married or not married, or have children or no children, etc. I am working, working to help everyone. I am also working. Yes, I am also working. Yeah, and if otherwise, I am going to the forest, eating something, and meditating only. So, in that way, all the time, I am working, working,... But what work do I do for God? And who are the God? My disciples. You are, you are my disciples. And who am I? Because Mahāprabhujī, Madhavānandjī, you see, and Madhavānandjī, and Mahāprabhujī. We see Mādhavānandajī and Mahāprabhujī. How Mahāprabhujī is still there. All are here. Now, again, I make one temple, a big, nice temple. I was in Badīk Khaṭṭū, and I went to Mahāprabhujī’s house. Mahāprabhujī has one meditation for him under. And many people did not know where. And there is one also somewhere, yes, and Mahāprabhujī’s family, and Mahāprabhujī’s mother, and Mahāprabhujī’s mother is a great one, you know. We have a picture from the area, like this, yes. So it doesn’t matter in which color, but still, everyone, the whole world, people are doing this. And so I came, and alongside it, it was only little temples, but very good. When the temple is once, then you should not take at all, not at all, no. Even if you break everything, maybe that remains, that Śiva, or that is like this. And I went to the Bhadikathu. I was so happy. And they said, "Swamiji, can you make this a little bit, because the temple is a little bit broken?" I said, if you give me, please, that in my heart, I will be so happy that I will make this temple. It’s not easy. The whole village was there, and so, who can do it? And I said, Mahāprabhujī, I don’t know how I can do it, but please, I will try, I will do it. And then also the one village, a very great village, Mahāprabhujī’s place, Mādhāvanandjī Bābājī. And he was there very much, and many people were there. The people were there. They have different people who are this and that, and like this. And they are mostly from the, like a great, like Mahārāja. And there was a Madhavānandajī Bābājī’s disciple, and so they were coming to me and said, "Gurujī, you give the temple, but please make one place that is what we call the top, out of the house. There is very nice, beautiful, this again, yeah, and so that will be." And they said to me. Maheśvara Nandājī, please, can you do this for us? I said, "How am I like a god?" For me, there is Mahāprabhujī, Mādhavānandajī, Bābājī, and Mahāprabhujī. And so I said, "I will hold it all for you all." And still I said, "Not me." Devpurījī, Mahāprabhujī, Mahādevpurījī, that is a satsaṅg. Śat, śat... What is the Sat? Sat is the truth, truth is Sat. And this is Sat. Aage, Satsaṅg, Satsaṅg. And this is a Satsaṅg. What is a Satsaṅg? All together, and we are all now like this, we are this, so Sat. Sat means the truth, in the truth, always within the truth, all the time. Otherwise, you are sometimes this and that and this, but once you have got the Sat, then you become the truth. So if you come or not, or here or not, you are pure, beautiful, and Sat, Cit, Truth, in the Truth of the Truth. So, satsaṅg, what is saṅg? We are all together, we are. Not only one, but we are all saṅgha. Sat Saṅgha, Sat Saṅgha, Gurudev Mahādwanandjī Bābjī, mereko dekhte to thodā bhāt mere sunnetā hoon. Yes? Sat Guru So, Sat Guru, Sat Saṅg. So I say to Mahāprabhujī, "Hey Mahāprabhujī, I will be, my life will be great and all, if Mahāprabhujī, Devpurījī is there." So, I am going there now. I think it is a... He was working very hard. I was there in Badīkhāṭū, and it was already three or two years. Only two years, a little more. It went very high. It is high; you cannot go above it. Yes. In the whole village, there is a hill like this. And whole people, you cannot imagine. They were so for me, but I said, "Please, I am not." He said, "Mādhavānandajī, Mādhavānandajī, because of Mahāprabhujī." And so, satsaṅg, satsaṅg kī saṅg, sat kī saṅg, sat kī saṅg. So, sat kī saṅg. So, go always to saṅg. Sat. So, Sat means we are all in oneness. And that’s because we are all satsaṅg. Sat and saṅgh merī āgāī hai. Look, sometimes, may I not, not anymore here, but you will all see Maheśvaraṇanda, Maheśvaraṇanda... he is saying, this is, he has given it, he calls it sangha, satsaṅg indeed, we have come bringing satsaṅg. Now that we have come into the Sangha, how can we go inside the Sangha? No matter what happens, one is ahead, one is behind, and one is a little bit ahead, but all is in oneness. All goes with us, like the ocean of water, and this water goes above into the ocean. And there is very fine, but all where water is everywhere, very sad. I said, and I was, today I was thinking also many times, and my disciples who became just touched to me and were telling me, "Come or not come," and but, but always it is a nut or a need, that need, near, what is it? Yeah, near, needle. And this needle is a needle gone into the whole body, bodies, I don’t know, but once it is in, it doesn’t matter how it will be, all the times will be this nut, this need. Need, needle, and this needle is yours, and this needle will be ever and ever, and will not go out. You will come to God in the same way that we are doing. And so, in the satsaṅg, satsaṅg me jahāne se, so my disciples, you are mine, I am yours. How many? Of course, many, many people were old, bad times when they came to me. They went, but they are with me. Their parents, my Gurujī was there, my Gurujī was there. And this is you, and I am so happy that I can get something from me. What? That I can do your seva. Śiva, Śiva, again Śiva, Satsaṅg Gurudev Kī Aisī Hotī Hai, Isī Ke Anusār, I would say to you, my dears. So, it doesn’t matter if you come to India and to the program there. If you cannot come, I will give you everything from there or here. On that day, you should sit in your house, in an ashram, in the forest, anywhere. On this one day, sit more and think, "I am, I am myself." And in that time, you will have māra, that is true, but something more, one more thing, we will give. And that is always what is, this is my, like you will go to Christians or the Hindus, what they are doing like that. And that same, it is like this: we are all because we are very pure, very clean. Know everything: this and that will go because in the Kali Yuga now, how many there are—meat, alcohols, this and that. But there is one person who once came to me and talked with me, and now he does not eat anything like that. Yes, and that is like a purity, purity, pure. And so, this you will do very nicely, and we will do it on that day in this, in the Mahāmaṇḍaleśvarjī. And this we are all, and all I will give you that one thing, and that will be always like my mālā. And mālā ke bādh me, like a sannyāsī, it doesn’t matter a sannyāsī or no sannyāsī. Sannyāsī, sannyāsinī, it is very good. So I am very happy to say, you think now night and night. Someday, it will take all the time I am making, I will, I am making for you, for everyone. Many people also, for very many years, that time, and some who have come into the one. When you have come to the one, then we become one. What is that? There is one needle here and one needle there. Like this, it became one clue. And those who will come will be like that. And then, what does that mean? Now you build, you practice yoga, yoga in daily life. Yes, give to everybody in your frame, in your house. Give them, everybody, more and more. And, of course, we are coming to a yoga practice, but everywhere, your children, your parents, your this, give more people like this. We have to bring this now, because I see very much that there are not, there have not remained too many people who will eat only good fruit and this and that. And when he who is eating meat means to kill the animals. That is what we should know, but they are doing many things. But we will remain as it is, and you are, and I know that everyone is in this way. In this way, thank you very much, and practice, and we will always be. Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān, Dev Purīṣa Mahādeva Kī, Mādhāvanjī Bhagavān Kī, Satya Sanātana Dharma Kī Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jaya. So from this day, until what I have told you, that you have to give yourself, then give me that, so you have to give me back. So in there, I will give you that something which always will be. It is your satsaṅg, your bhavan. You are then a guru’s guru, like a guru, okay? Not at this, but you are very happy, good, everything, yeah. And so you will be doing good things, you will stay good, yes, always as we are, yes. So, like, we are making like this, like this; people have like this. And we are coming all yoga in daily life, in this all peace and everything. What they are bringing now, people, and doing something like this, is destroying. Certain things they are destroying, but we will not destroy. We will come because it will be said, "No meat, no accident," this and that. Then it is dead, but those are going everywhere. Then what is that? What animals? Birds? Anything? So you are the pure, you are the very pure myself, and that pure is good. The ocean, water, the ocean is many, many things, but water goes up in the human. The aeroplane goes in, but the water is not making any drop, and everything, but it is how pure it is. Purity, that is a purity. Then there are many, many things inside, yeah. Then that’s what we are doing. All the best, so thank you. Please do it yourself, and name, and this and that, and give me, always give me. I will do it. So, Hari Om. Om Śānti. Śānti Śānti Hari Om.
