In India, we have a saying: "Gyānī se gyānī mile kare gyān kī bāt." When the wise meet the wise, they discuss wisdom. "A gadha se gadha mile ke ghumake lāt." But when the donkey meets the donkey, they kick with their back legs. So when the ignorant, the fools, come together, they fight. Is the education we have nowadays around the world, all the way to the universities, the proper education, or should we change something? Some people think only of economy and money. In this Kali Yuga, this dark age, this iron time, money has become God. When a billionaire comes, even the president of a country says, "Please sir, come, come, please sit down." When a poor person comes, they cannot even enter the door. This means humanity has lost its humanity. Money is governing, and that money is killing everyone. This is the reason why people are fighting. Therefore, a yogī says: "Sarve bhavantu sukhinaḥ" – May all be happy. "Śāntiḥ, śāntiḥ, śāntiḥ" – Peace, peace, peace. In Judaism, there is the ancient word "Shalom" – Let's make peace. Every religion says this. But reality has changed. It is said that if you are struck on the left cheek, offer the right cheek. But we do not offer the right cheek; we show the hand. There is a problem, big, big problems. So it is time to understand and get the right education. No one was born with a stamp on the body declaring you are a Hindu, a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, or a Buddhist. We were all born as very innocent, pure human beings, as children. But then education began—worldly education. Very rare are those who receive spiritual education and spiritual freedom, who are not narrow-minded. It is said that out of 8.4 million forms of life, it is very rare to get a human birth. And even if one is born human, it is very rare to have spiritual parents who will educate you with tender love and free thinking. Even rarer and more fortunate are those who have spiritual tendencies and feelings. Because there are some who have no karma at all, yet they preach. They are like the tail of a dog: as long as you hold it, it is straight, but when you release it, it curls back again. So it is not easy to have spiritual tendencies. Lucky are they who have spiritual, wise friends. Blessed are they who have spiritual guidance from a master. They have the mercy of God, they realize God, they achieve divine consciousness. The difference between humans and animals is significant. Animals know how to eat, drink, procreate, and sleep. They also follow natural law. But humans do not. So it is time again to come to universal consciousness, to come to brotherhood. We are all made of the same five elements. Every one of us has red blood; we all need the same oxygen. God has provided everything. Mahātmā Gandhi said, "Mother Earth provides enough for every man's need, but not for every man's greed." If humans give up their greediness, many problems will be solved. Borders are created first in the human mind, and then on the landscape. That is what yogīs are trying to do: to bring world peace. For that, we need a healthy body, a healthy mind, and a healthy intellect. One scientist said, "Health is not everything, but everything is nothing without health." So what is the best, perfect way to good health? Which creates health through and through? We have different bodies: the physical body, the mental body, the astral body, the intellectual body, and the causal body. They are often grouped into three: the physical body, the subtle body, and the causal body. All should be healthy. This means we must begin with education. Education is very important, but it should be through the whole system: body, mind, consciousness, and soul. All three or four of these should be purified. We need to clean up all of them.
