Bhajans from Oosterhout

The only longing is the dust of the holy feet of the Satya Guru. All desires for heavenly pleasures, riches, and even liberation are rejected. Liberation itself is but a servant at those lotus feet. Meeting the real Satya Guru annihilates all mental confusions. False knowledge from countless guides is removed. The Guru reveals the real truth. The true inner nature is discovered within. In the heart, God is met. The flame of the individual soul merges into the cosmic flame. Like fragrance permeating a blossom, the eternal truth fills every heart. All doubts dissolve, and all karmas are destroyed. Inside everything abides one eternal truth; external appearances are merely its forms. The prayer arises: “Satya Guru, show the real, indescribable Purusha.” The Guru’s word is not mere words; it encompasses all. The realized one, intoxicated by the sadguru’s name, is deep as the sky, sweet as nectar, cool as the ocean. Such a one has no desires in the three worlds. Such a one sees diamond and stone as equal, has no fear, and remains unmovable in life and death.

"He does not look at castes, and he does not look at status. For him, diamond and stones are the same."

"This divine traveler is a hero among the greatest heroes."

Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai, Śrī Sattā Gurudeva Kī Jai, Khyātuṁ Dvunito. Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavāne Kī Jaya, Śrī Satā Gurudeva Kī Jaya, Rājā Dena. Gurudev, please give me the dust of your holy lotus feet. This is the only thing for which I am searching and longing. I am not longing for the pleasures of the heavenly world. I am not longing to be rich. I am not longing for the joy of Indra, the king of gods. I am not longing for the wealth of all kings, the treasure of all the kings. I am not longing for the method of liberation, because even mukti, liberation itself, is the servant of your lotus feet. The only thing for which I am longing is the dust of your holy lotus feet. This is Swāmī Lālanānjī’s prayer, his only one. Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jaya, Satya Gurudeva Kī Jaya, Svāmī Lālanānjī Gurudeva Kī Jaya. Om Bolo Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai, Lālā Nanjī Mahārāja Kī Jai, Satya Gurudeva Kī Jai. Mela means to meet, to come together. When I met the real Satya Gurudeva, he destroyed all my bhrama, my mental confusions. This is what Swāmī Ganeśwar was speaking this morning: that first Śiva removes our wrong wisdom—or rather, not wisdom, but false knowledge. I had listened to many wise people, many guides, about discipline, about fasting, about ceremonies, about sacrifice, about how to sacrifice. But he showed me the real truth. And within myself, I found—I have found—my true inner nature, my true self. And at that time, in my heart, I met God. And jyoti, merī jyoti milāyā—the flame of the individual soul has become one with the flame of the cosmic one. Like the blossom, or the fragrance in the blossom, he fills every heart. And when all doubts dissolve, he destroys all my karmas. Inside everything, there is one eternal truth. Everything that we see from the outside are its forms. Śrī Maṅgīlālji says, “Satya Guru, show me the real, indescribable Puruṣa.” Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai, Śrī Svāmī Maṅgīlāl Jī Gurudeva Kī Jai. This teaching comes from our holy Gurujī. It is said that those who hold it in their heart and their words, they desire to see... “I want...” What can I tell you? There is something that some people have, but this is only very brief, like we were saying this morning. What was it? Ah, yes, Ārsādevī. Alakhpurīśa Mahādeva, Śrī Śrīdeveśvara Mahādeva, Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān, Śrī Madhavānanda Kholī Gurujī, Śrī Sattva Gurudeva, Viśvagurujī Paramahaṃsa Maheśvarānanda Gurudeva. Every word, what we spoke yesterday and today, whatever I have given, whatever I am speaking—that is a very great thing. People may have nouns, but only a few words, and drum... ding, dang, ding, da—only like that. But when our Gurudev, Mahāprabhujī, Devpurījī, and others give that word, it is profoundly different. This is what I want to tell you. I tell you, it is not merely two words; it is more and more, encompassing everything that happens. And how long did she speak? The two of them, very nicely, very nice. Before that, she was sitting there, and she was also singing like this. Because now, I don’t know what she will see, but she will see, and it is yielding greater goodness. This, and this, and that—look upon it in that way. This is our program here today: we are singing. The singing here is whole in our heart, in the whole body. Everything is for us. Oh, how good! Oh my dear one, good one! Oh my friend! Oh yes! Oh God! Oh Bhagavān! Like this. So, who is there, please? Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai. Gurudeva, bestow your mercy on me and accept me, accept us, as your own. We have taken shelter of you, so please give us a place at your lotus feet. People—they don’t know. This was spoken in India, but let them receive something so they can feel what is good in it. Okay? Oh my dear friend, this fakīr, this yogī—without any problems, he is drunk with the name of his sādguru. It is said that it is as deep as the sky and as sweet as nectar. He is cool as the water in the ocean. He does not look at castes, and he does not look at status. For him, diamond and stones are the same. He has no desires in all three worlds. He no longer longs for the happiness of the astral world. He is not afraid of anybody, whether it is a king, a beggar, or a priest. He pays no attention to thirst or hunger. He is unmovable, and he is strong and firm as a mountain. He is the same in life and in death. He does not behave like a siddha or like a prophet. Swāmī Dīp says, “This divine traveler is a hero among the greatest heroes.” Om Bolo Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai, Juga Juga Jīvo Maheśvarānandajī, Juga Juga Jīvo Maheśvarānandajī. Oṁ Bolo Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai, Śrī Mādhavaṁ Kṛṣṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai, Viśvaguru Mahāmaṇḍaleśvarānanda, Śrī Svāmī Maheśvarānanda Jī, Guru Deva Kī Jai.
