Parents create this, yes, and I have trauma from childhood, yes, etc., etc. Sit with yourself. Thank God we have meditation. Sit with yourself in peace and be honest with yourself. Because you must know one thing. Have you watched "House, M.D."? Did you seriously watch it? Okay, you know one rule: everybody lies. When you ask, "What is your problem?" or something, everybody lies because we always want to be seen in a better light. "No, I'm not guilty." And that is also how we will remain unchanged if we do not take responsibility for our life. We always say that in our life, the other is guilty. And yes, my horoscope is guilty. It is not me. You know what is on Facebook, usually a picture. You don't need to blame other people, family, or yourself. Learn feng shui, and you will have guilt for everything: the closet, this furniture, for everything. Your furniture will be guilty. You didn't see this? I remember once Swāmījī said: if you have a friend who is an astrologer, you will never be free from the planets. Never will you be free from the planets. We are not guilty. Mercury is retrograde. And because of that, I have a problem with communication. Not because I am a pig, and I am not good in communication with other people, and I am selfish, and I am all this stuff. No, no, no. Mercury is retrograde, and because of that, we have a problem with communication. Nem az én önzésem a baj, hanem a Merkúr retrográd mozgása. (It's not my selfishness that's the problem, but Mercury's retrograde motion.) If Mercury is not retrograde, it's my steroid. I remember a few people who were so terrible, torturing everybody, and in the end, "Oh, sorry, my thyroid problem." If you know that you have a problem with your thyroid, practice āsanas, practice everything for your thyroid. If it's not functioning, take the hormones. But what do all these excuses show? That I am the weak one. I'm not able to change. I'm not controlling my life. Always, there is something: guilt, trauma, constellation of planets. If you come to Croatia, for everything, there is the guilt, the Yugo. No, on the Adriatic coast. The rest of Yugoslavia doesn't have Yugo. That is the special wind which is blowing. Not like a fan, but something like this. And in Dubrovnik, the Republic of Dubrovnik, many centuries ago, even the parliament was not working during that kind of weather. And for ladies, PMS, PMS... for everything is guilty. For the guys, if you molested your wife, children, and drink a lot of alcohol because your football team lost. And your wife has blue eyes because Dynamo lost, and Dynamo's dress is blue. Dynamo is a football team in Zagreb. Yes, for everything we need to have an excuse. And that shows that we are weak. We don't have control of our life in our hands. What does it mean that we are not yogīs? If we are yogīs, we know that bhajan, constellation of the planet, trauma from childhood, your favorite football team losing—no problem. Weather changing—no problem. Because you are above all this. You are stronger than this, and you are controlling your life. That means to be a yogī. If you are sitting on the worst geopathologic radiation from the earth, you will change this into the best constellation. That means, be a yogī. Not that, "It is trauma from childhood." Thank God we know that is the trauma from childhood, and we are able to change this. But for that, we need to be aware. We need to be here and now. And we need to be the observer. Yesterday I told, before any feelings come, like before a storm. You will see some clouds, and with experience, if you observe the sky, you will know that clouds come from this side; it will rain. But you need to look up and see the sky. Also, you need to look inside and see if any clouds come. And in that moment when clouds start, you are able to take an umbrella, go home, or put the car in the garage. És ha jönnek a felhők, akkor tudod, hogy elő kell venni az esernyőt, vagy hazamenni, vagy berakni az autót a garázsba. (And if the clouds come, then you know you need to take out the umbrella, or go home, or put the car in the garage.) Because in that moment, before it starts, we are able to control and say to ourselves, "No, I don't want this behavior." Mert, hogy mielőtt elkezdődik, észreveszed, és akkor még tudod uralni, és azt tudod mondani, hogy: "Nem, nem akarom ezt a viselkedést." (Because, before it starts, you notice it, and then you can still control it, and you can say: "No, I don't want this behavior.") No, I don't want such a temptation. Everything is predictable if we are observing and if we are aware, but we don't want to see. In the beginning of a relationship, in the beginning, if you are not blind through emotion, you will know what will be in the future. But when we start with some relationship, we have a lack of age and experience. Nobody told us what to do and what to see, and we, in the future, have a problem. I know a lady from here, and she told me her experience. She told me, when her—I am not sure, husband or boyfriend—gave her the first slap, she immediately broke the relationship. He will never change, he will never change. If you lie to yourself, "No, it will be good. It is because Dynamo lost, this football team. Oh yes, he has a lot of stress in the world." No. Hogyha hazudsz magadnak, is azt mondod, hogy ez azért volt, mert vesztett a Fradi, akkor soha nem változik. (If you lie to yourself, and say that this happened because Fradi lost, then he will never change.) "But it will be good. That is just a temporal problem." No. That is a sign that a storm will come. Ez egy jó ember. Ez csak egy időleges probléma. Ez annak a jele, hogy jön a vihar. (He is a good man. It's just a temporary problem. This is a sign that a storm is coming.) But because of emotion, because we are blinded by emotion, we think, "Oh yes, the sun will come. Yes, it will come." When you are... he will die, or when you are separate. But be honest with yourself and try to be in this moment now. If we are waiting for something... For me, in secondary school, one of the stupid books was Waiting for Godot. He will come. Yes, yes, he will come. Maybe not, but he will come. And you are waiting. After that, through yoga, I realized that that book is fantastic. We are living in the waiting of Godot. And we are losing the present moment because we are waiting for something. Utilize this moment now, because who knows what will be next moment. Try to do everything that you want to do now. Because if you will wait to, I don't know, go to the Himalayas, every year you are older and older, and our knees, every moment, with more age... You know, with yoga also, so many people said to me in these 40 years—what, 40-some years what I am leading yoga class—"When I go to the pension, I will practice yoga every day." And you know, as a result, when you are retired, you have little time and you have little money. And when you have little money, you take a game job and start to come. Grandchildren, and so on. And somehow you start to practice less than during the work time. And because of that—that is a little depressive topic, but it's true—be aware about this. Start to love ourselves. "How I'm stupid?" No. And because of that, if you want to practice, practice now. If you want to do anything that is good and positive, do it now. And they said, before starting anything, think on your Gurudev. You know, in the Guru Gītā: when you are going to the elephant, down the elephant, anything that you do, first think on your Gurudev. Think on Gaṇeśa. Why? Because that symbolically means: do not work through your emotion, through instinct. Because if you do it through emotion and just instinctively, unconsciously, we are on the level of the animal. And after that, when we sit with ourselves, "I don't know why I do this. Automatically, I do this." It's through emotion, yes. That kind of answer is telling us, yes, we are acting on the level of the animal. And because of that, first thing in the morning: I am a human. What do humans do? Utilize this part of the brain. Think. Little plan. This feeling for others, not only think about me and myself. And when you in the moment start to think on your Gurudev or Gaṇeśa, that is the moment when you make a little break and from this lower part, which is automatic, it is part of the "I am not human," you switch to the "I am a human." But mostly, be in the present time. Yesterday there was also one question: "Yes, now we will go home, and you know what is waiting for you at home. How to deal with this all?" Be in the present. Be aware of what is happening around you. And it does not mean that you will have recognition, that you will see the future. Yes, you will see the future, but not like something extraordinary. But if you know the present situation and if you know the past, it is very easy—if you are not emotional, if you are not lying to yourself—very easy, you will see what will be in the future. And very little will surprise you. Only one thing will surprise you every time. De egy dolog mégis mindig meglep majd. (But one thing will always surprise you.) That is your guru. A gurú does. He will always make something that you will be little... Because his function is to be the teaspoon, which is mixed, you and everything from us deep inside will go up. To see, and when we see, we are able to change. And that is yoga: to be aware of what is inside us, at our subconscious and unconscious levels, svādhiṣṭhāna and mūlādhāra, to see what is inside, because what is inside will define how we will act. Because that is the yoga: if you see what is under the consciousness, on the unconscious level, in the Mūlādhāra cakra and in the Svādhiṣṭhāna cakra, only if you see these, you can act well and change yourself. And that is how we will change our life, how we will change our destiny. And how we will, in the end, merge with the cosmic Self. Thank you once more. I was feeling excellent here. Enjoying with you all, because I think it was a really good atmosphere. Yesterday I said that the children were so good that I think nobody realized that in the hall there are children. Köszönöm, nagyon jól éreztem magam itt. Nagyon jó volt a légkör. Ahogy tegnap mondtam, a gyerekek is annyira jók és csendben voltak. Észrevehetetlen volt, hogy itt voltak a teremben egyáltalán. (Thank you, I felt very good here. The atmosphere was very good. As I said yesterday, the children were also so good and quiet. It was unnoticeable that they were in the hall at all.) And I know, and I hear, that everybody was really serious for sādhanā. What does it mean that we utilize our time in a good way? Once more, thanks to the organizers, because organizing anything is not easy. Only if you want to organize one bus, it is a hard job. Especially with spiritual people. You know what Swāmījī said, that spiritual people are like frogs. And you are not able to measure the weight of the frogs. Because you put two frogs inside, one jumps out, two jump in, and then you start to organize something. "Two, yes, I will come. One, no, I will not come." And that is all, my God. For us, that is life. But for our organizers, it's, "Oh, that it's life." And because of that, really, we need to be happy that we have such organizers everywhere, not only in Hungary, but also your main organizer also had a problem with your application, not yours, but applications. And usually, organizers are never on the program. Not because they don't want to be on the program. But who will do something? What is in the backstage? And thank you for all of this, what you, with your work, manage, that we all have here a nice time, a good journey to Strelka, to home, to your family. Also, it's very important to be with your family. It is very important to dedicate time, but dedicate time does not mean that you are sitting with your family but you are somewhere else. But if you are here and now, even half the time with your family, with your friends, will be much more valuable than a whole day, but you are who knows where. And see you soon, somewhere. I am not an organizer, I don't know anything about this. Utilize this moment. I learned this when I went to the Devpurījī Gufā. I mentioned I was in that moment, freaked to make a picture of the flowers. But through that, I learned something. Use this moment now. Who knows? You will come back the same way. Which time of the day? Which light? Yesterday we heard about light, how is it changing the picture? Ten days in the life of the flower is a whole life. And if you want to do anything, do now. What means? Don't think about the Adriatic coast. Who knows what will be? Live now and here, only this is existing. Now, but also you need to think a little about the future, because you know this story about the ant and this other bug, which is all the day making noise. Ismeritek a hangya és a tücsök történetét? (Do you know the story of the ant and the cricket?) You know that story? Ismeritek. (You know.) Oh my God, you know about Basna? This story is from, I think, also Greek and so on. And this also, it was Cicada; whole day he was playing the music, but ant was working in the short. And when winter came, the cicada was suffering from hunger and without shelter, and the ant had a shelter and food. And he asked for help, and gave him food, shelter, and also education. I will only make a little change inside. It is not good to live like an ant, and it is not good to live like a cicada. A yogī, you know how he is in the Bhagavad Gītā, is neither fasting nor overeating, neither sleeping too much nor not sleeping. We need to find the middle path. A yogī is not one who is not practicing, but is not forcing too much. The middle way, and with joy. Siyālak Purījī, Siddha Pīṭha Amparā, Kījja. Have a good journey. Jó utat! (Have a good trip!) Thank you.
