In the Anāhata Chakra, your heart finds fulfillment. This means your wishes come true, but you must be careful with your wishes. Desires are our wishes. When you awaken your Anāhata Chakra, then whatever you wish comes true. There is a story. One man was traveling through the desert. In the desert, there is mostly sand and little bushes, with the wind blowing. No path is visible, like in the winter when there is a lot of snow and all the walking paths through the forest become invisible. People traveling through the forest, whether walking or by camel, get up earlier to walk because it is nice and cool. One traveler got up in the morning at four o'clock and began his journey. By ten thirty a.m., it became very hot, and he saw 300 meters away a beautiful big banyan tree—a kind of tree we call Kalpavṛkṣa. Kalpavṛkṣa is a tree under which you can fulfill all desires; every thought comes true. He did not know this was a Kalpavṛkṣa. He was only tired and very hot, and he was happy to see a tree and sit under it in the shade. Outside it was 45 degrees already, and under the tree it was pleasantly cool. Perhaps only one degree different, but still pleasant. He thought, "Ah, pleasant." It became pleasant, and he became hungry. "I am hungry now." Why? Every thought will come true. "It would be nice to have a nice meal." In front of him, the meal came—his favorite dish. "Oh, enjoy it." "Oh, it would be nice to have some nice cool water." In such heat, you wish only for cool water to drink. A tray came with a beautiful glass full of cool water, and he drank it. He said, "I'm tired, it would be good to rest." There was no bed, and suddenly he found himself on a beautiful bed with pillows and blankets, which he didn't need because it was very hot. He was lying down. "Now some massage would be good." He felt that someone was massaging him; he doesn't see anyone. Then the man begins to think: "What is this? What miracle is that? There is no village, no one is near here, only I see the tree. Maybe it is some ghost." And he sees the ghost. Now he's paralyzed in the bed because the ghost is sitting and looking. "Haha, relax." Now he was completely stiff like wood. "Oh God, he will kill me." And the ghost killed him. This human life is that Kalpavṛkṣa, that tree under which you can fulfill all your wishes. But you have to be careful what you wish. It is your own thinking that kills you. So it is our wishes which we wish for something without thinking, and those wishes become for us either good or bad. Negative thinking will kill you, and positive thinking will give you pleasantness. When the heart center is awakened, then your Saṅkalpa Śakti becomes strong, and whatever you wish from your heart will come true. That is why it is Anāhata Chakra, where is the seat of the Divine. Awakening this center is for us a blessing. Before you begin to awaken it, you should first purify your desires, because negative desires will lead you to the negative way. It can direct you to the wrong direction; then you begin with the kuṣaṅga. You can find also in spirituality some people searching for something different, and they fell into drugs. They think while drug abusing they will find the divine consciousness. Yes, they will find not divine consciousness but crazy consciousness. You will be lost for many, many lives. Therefore, Nāsa kara hari nāmaka—you should have the habits of God's name's drug. We are intoxicated with divine intoxication; we have that, God's name, the mantra. Do not sit in the negative society where you learn the negative habits. Holy Gurujī used to say, "It is easy to become free from the enemy, but it is not easy to become free from the bad habits," which you learn in the bad society. So when the heart is open and the Anāhata Chakra is awakened, the entire power, the Kuṇḍalinī power, is manifesting in the Anāhata Chakra. Your heart becomes one of the biggest hearts without borders, and then everything comes to you. If you have only the Anāhata Chakra active and the Āgyā Chakra is not active, you can get some problems. Therefore, you have to use the Āgyā Chakra. Āgyā Chakra means the intellect, the seat of the intellect—the Chakra of knowledge and logical thinking. You must know what it is that you are going to do, and what fruits will come, what kind of reaction will come, and how the reaction will affect my body, mind, consciousness, and my soul. And for that, God has given us. So the Anāhata Chakra is a most beautiful Chakra. It is a Chakra where your Saṅkalpa Śakti becomes stronger. In your chakra book, there is the same story which I told you about the man traveling through the desert. And there is one story more: that of a man who had this siddhi—it means Saṅkalpa Śakti—and he took the mango from the king's garden because his wife wanted to eat it. This story is also here. As well, there is a story of the man with the snake and the monkey, what happened to the monkey. The monkey was thinking and wishing for something because the monkey did not have that intellect, and that monkey fell into trouble. Therefore, you should be very careful when awakening your heart chakra.
