Many people sorrow over their lives, worrying about how to live. A wise person once said that even animals do not sorrow over eating and drinking. O human, you are a very wise and clever creature, so why do you sorrow? In this way, humans can be worse than animals. Why do you make sorrows? Do you not trust God? Do you not trust nature? Do you not trust your destiny? It is said: who gave the beak will give the food. God knows that everyone needs food. Therefore, do not make sorrows about it. Thus, it is asked: O human, why do you worry about your life? The One who gave you life has arranged everything for you. You will get everything that you deserve, and what you do not deserve, you will not get. Therefore, be content inside, be relaxed, accept your destiny, and try to come back to the origin. That is called Ātmā Jñāna, Self-Realization. The body is given to us as an instrument. Use this instrument not for fulfilling your physical desires. Blind and ignorant are those who depend on and concentrate only on fulfilling physical desires. The heroes are those who are above everything. Of course, it is not easy, but for those who are spiritually developed, it is very easy. If you are a good driver, a good mechanic, and you know your car will not survive driving on the highway, yet you still do it, you will have an accident that will take your life. Similarly, the wise one knows that desires are like cars that are completely destroyed. But still, if you drive your feelings with them, be sure you will not come to Ātmā Jñāna. Tons of theory are nothing compared to a gram of practice. You may read, you may speak, but you do not have that knowledge—the knowledge of the Self. Human life is given for only one purpose: to attain Self-Realization, to know thyself, that you are the supreme ātmā. Otherwise, you must repeat miserable lives, never knowing for how many millions of times. Go to the pig farm. Did you ever ask yourself what destiny they have? Go to the chicken farm. All these animals are tortured by humans. Did you ever ask what destiny they have? And did you ever ask yourself if perhaps you were once among them, one of them? Did you ever think it could happen that you will be one of them? Do not think you will always be born as a human. And do not think you will come to heaven easily. You have to deserve to come to heaven, and this is a bitter truth. Some people do not like to listen to this, but reality cannot be changed. No religion, culture, politics, mentality, or philosophy can change reality. The truth is ever truth. The evidence of that truth will never die. Therefore, God was very gracious to us that He gave such a beautiful human life and intellect. This intellect needs spiritual education. Otherwise, to eat, to drink, to create children, and to work—animals are also very active. If humans are only trying to do this, then there is very little difference. Therefore, think peacefully, meditate: who are you, and what is the purpose of your life? (Nyugodtan, csendben, gondold át, meditálj rajta, ki vagy te, és mi az életed célja.) After all this, finally, we have to find Satgurū Dev (És ezután végül meg kell találnunk Satgurū Dev-et) and follow Gurū Dev's teachings (És Gurū Dev tanításait követni). Do not go here and there (Ne rohangálj ide-oda). Do not change your spiritual master like you change your thoughts. It will not help you. You have to stick to one path. You have to decide and be in a hurry to decide. You never know when is the end of this life. Therefore, you have to practice, begin. Nothing is more important in life than practice. Follow the Guruvākyā. Thus, one of the disciples of Śrī Mahāprabhujī said in a bhajan, "Satsaṅg with Mooji." When you follow the Guruvākyā, something will happen in you. What is that? What will happen? What must you do to follow the words of Gurudeva? Do not think that in one summer you will practice yoga and then in the winter you will forget because it is too cold, or because of this and that. "Now I have to marry"—this is one of the biggest problems. To marry is one of the biggest problems, but to get divorced is even bigger. So this is not a problem. Do not change. But how to follow? We do not understand. If we understood, we would follow. It is said that you have to root out two problems. These two are the biggest problems. If you wish to follow the teachings of the Gurudev and the holy persons, if you wish to realize Ātmā-jñāna, then remove two things. Root them out. Kāma. Sexual desires. These desires have killed all creatures and have made so many human lives miserable. You always think, "I will get a new Mary, I will get a new Mary; better I will have other Marys." This is your biggest ignorance. All men are equal. Do not think, "This husband is not good, I will have another husband, and I will have another husband." The husband is like a band playing drums; it will play sound as you play. How you tune the instrument is the sound it will have. So do not think the next man will be better. I can tell you, all men are beautiful and nice, and no man is better than the one you have just now. And no wife can be more beautiful and best than the one you have just now. You are not born just to choose a husband and wife. Husband and wife, animals can have also. Mother and father, animals can have also. Children, animals can have also. But Satguru Dev can have only humans. Between you and Satguru Dev is one problem: your desires. This is the one. Second, krodha. Krodha means anger. There are many different kinds of anger. Jealousy is anger. Complexity is anger. Hate is anger. Greediness is anger. Sorrow is anger. These are emotions with many different faces. So desires and anger do not let you come up. Kāma and krodha. Krodha is fire. Krodha is the devil, and that devil will destroy everything. Therefore, kāma krodhko dūr hatau—remove them far away. Tan kī kheti sāf karau—purify the field of this body. Clean this body from desires, from anger, from greediness, and from improper nourishment. Discipline. Regular discipline. Cultivate your field with your daily practices. It is your daily practices that will help you. Like a farmer: first he takes all the stones and bushes out of the field, then he goes with the tractor and cultivates. Then the mantra will come. When the field of your heart is clean, pure, and ready, then Gurudev will come and give you the mantra. Without a mantra, your sādhanā cannot be completed. You may do whatever you want, but no mantra, no success. Without a mantra, this body is like a statue with no soul inside. You have to practice. As much as you can, repeat your mantra: walking, talking, working, meditating, doing āsanas. Each time you repeat a mantra once, it is like putting one dollar in your bank. As many times as you repeat your mantra, that many dollars you will have in your bank—meaning the credit in your spirituality, your spiritual bank. If you repeat a million per day, you have a million. In two days, two millions. Three days, three millions. Ten days, ten millions. And if you practice only three times in ten days, then your account is empty. This worldly money will not go with you, but your spiritual money—the repetition of your mantras, meditations, and spirituality—that will go with you. You will have in the astral world, in heaven, the golden card. You can access anywhere. That is spirituality. And it depends on you. This spiritual money, meaning the mantra, no thieves can take away. It will never get less, and you will have day-by-day interest on it. Therefore, repeat. It is said that no breath should go empty. Each and every breath, ingoing and outgoing, should be full of the mantra. In one year, you will see your life is completely different. You will have a spiritual aura; richness will come from your body. Do not miss one day, but do not practice mantra like a fixed routine. There are some people who put a mantra on a tap, which is endlessly running. That is not spiritual; that is brainwashing. That is not good. When you have to work on something with concentration, you may leave your mantra aside. You should do all normal work. When you go to sleep, sleep by repeating the mantra. Then, the whole night, your mantra will become a japa, and you will have a very beautiful sleep. Therefore, it is very important that you have a mantra and that you are practicing it. Otherwise, you put one dollar in the bank and after five years say, "How much money do I have there?" One dollar. Why only one? "I have five years of mantra." Yes, you have, but you did not put it in. When the inner field is ready, your consciousness is ready, then the mantra will function in you. What will happen then? Thank you for watching.
