Welcome to everybody. I would like to welcome Viśva Gurujī here in the ashram and express our gratitude that he could come, that he found the time to come, and that he is taking so much care of us. I wish for all of us to feel a beautiful time here and to utilize and get the best of this time. But as we know, when we are here, time passes very quickly. So let us focus and utilize each and every minute so that we can keep in our minds, in our consciousness, what we have learned here and retain it within us, utilizing it in our lives. As a token of our gratitude and love, we have flowers for you, Master. I would also like to welcome Svāmī Avatār Purījī, who is here with us, and we are very happy that he can be here. Om Śālakpūrjī Mahādev Kī Jai, Devādhī Devadevaśwar Mahādev Kī Jai, Śrīdīp Nārāyaṇ Bhagavān Kī Jai, Hindu Dharma Samrāṭ Paramahaṁswāmī Śrī Madhavānand Purījī Sadgurudev Bhagavān Kī Jai, Viśvaguru Mahāmaṇḍaleśwar Paramahaṁswāmī Śrī Maheśvara Nanda Purījī Ugrajī Kī Jai. Salutations to the Cosmic Self, salutations to Śrī Alagpurījī Siddhapīṭha Paramparā, and good evening to everyone who is present here and who is watching through Swamījī.tv. First of all, I am very grateful and blessed to be here with Gurudev this time among all of my dear brothers and sisters. As we all know, as Gurudev has told us many times, we are blessed. Out of the 8.4 million creatures in this universe, human beings are the highest. As we know, creation is divided into three parts: Jalacara (those in water), Nabhacara (those in the sky), and Sthalacara (those on land). Among all creatures, human beings possess the most intellect, viveka, and buddhi, and we can use it a little more than others. We should not waste this human life. As Viśvagurujī always mentions, there is satsaṅga and kusaṅga. We are now here doing satsaṅga, which is a good thing for us. There is a beautiful bhajan, "Guru Charanamaya dasa dhati iratahe," which the Vedas and Purāṇas sing. In that bhajan, it is said that in the Gurudev's lotus feet, all pilgrimages reside. In India, we have many pilgrimages, many yātrās, like the Chārdhām: Badrīnāth, Kedārnāth, Yamunotrī, Gaṅgotrī. We also have the 12 Jyotirliṅgas, the twelve great temples of Lord Śiva. But for us, all pilgrimages, all yātrās, everything that exists, is in the lotus feet of the Gurudev. Therefore, we do not need to go anywhere searching for God, because God is sitting in front of us. When we have Gurudev's blessings with us, when we have Him with us, then there is nothing to worry about in life. It is Guru Kripā hi, as Gurudev always mentions. We are blessed to be connected to the great lineage of Śrī Alakpurī Jī Siddhapīṭha Paramparā. This lineage begins with Śrī Alakpurī Jī in the Himalayas, where he performed tapasyā. Many of us have visited and had the opportunity to go there with Gurudev. It then continues with Śrī Devapurījī Mahārāj in Kailāśa. Many, perhaps all of you, have visited the beautiful ashram in Sīkar village, Rajasthan. Then there is Mahāprabhujī's ashram, Śrīdīp Nārāyaṇ Mahāprabhujī's ashram in Kāṭhū, Nāgaur. In the beautiful system Gurudev has created for all of us—it does not matter if you are young, middle-aged, or old; no one is old, we are all young here—that system is created for everyone. Today, I would like to wish all of you a very happy International Yoga Day, dedicated to Gurujī. Barikatu Pranam to Mahāprabhujī's ashram in Kāṭhū. Then we have our beloved Dādā Gurujī, His Holiness Paramahaṁsa Svāmī Madhavānanda Purījī Mahārāj, and his ashram in Nepal. And then there is Gurudev Viśvaguru Mahāmuṇi Maheśvarānanda Purījī Satgurudev, whose ashrams he has created not only in India but all across the world. Because of him, we are all here right now. We were all blessed to be part of the grand opening ceremony in February, a beautiful event Gurudev held for ten days. We had many different events, including a Śivapurāṇa Kathā. Our dear Bhakti was dancing a few times, and perhaps she will again here. It was a beautiful part, a beautiful time to be present there in Jārdan, with Gurudev's blessings. Every chance we get to be with him is always a blessing—every moment, every second, whenever it is possible to be near him, in his presence, and be blessed by him. It is always beautiful. As we all know, today is International Yoga Day, and Viśvagurujī is here to celebrate it with all of us through his system, "Yoga in Daily Life," which he has spread across the world, where we have many centers. There are very rare Mahāpuruṣas who incarnate in this universe to help and guide humankind. Viśvagurujī's system of Yoga in Daily Life is spread all across India and the world. All the great yogīs in India, like Bābā Rāmdev, respect Svāmījī because he is the one who has spread yoga across the whole world, not only in India, taking yoga to everyone, everywhere. We are all blessed to be part of this era, part of this beautiful system of Yoga in Daily Life. I would like to thank Gurudev for everything he has done for us and for guiding us. We wish him good health, we wish him everything, and we wish for his blessings forever and ever. Now I will sing the Sannyāsūkta, which I was singing yesterday, and then we can practice the first line together. Amṛtattva manuṣuḥu parenānakam nihitam guhāyam vibhrājate, tad yata yo viśanti vedānta vijñāna suniṣṭhitāḥ sannyāsa yogātyāyātaḥ śuddha sattvāḥ te brahma loke tu parāntakāle paramṛtat parimucyanti sarve. Now let's practice the first line together. It is not hard at all; it is very easy. Dhāne nā tyāge, na karmaṇā, na prajayā. Dhāne nā tyāge nai ke amṛtatva mānuṣoho, mānuṣoho... Na karmaṇā na prajaya, na karmaṇā na prajaya dhane na tyāge nai ke, dhane na tyāge nai ke. I think that is enough for today. Tomorrow we will have the text there, and we will do it. Om Śānti Śānti... Om Śālakpūrjī Mahādeva Kī Jai, Devādideva Viśvār Mahādeva Kī Jai, Śrīdīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai, Hindu Dharma Samrāṭ Paramahaṁsa Śrī Madhavānanda Pūrjī Satgurudeva Bhagavān Kī Jai, Viśvaguru Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara Paramahaṁsa Śrī Maheśvara Ānandapūrjī Oṁgrāj Kī Jai, Arṇavanātha Pārvatīpataye Harahara Mahādeva Śaṁbhu.
