The peculiarity of our ailment is that we see mistakes in others. When a father asks his children, "Who did this?" one says, "No, I was not here the other day." Another says, "No, no, it was that one." Others say, "We don't know." There is much fighting between husband and wife. They cannot find the car key. The husband says, "Where did you put the keys from the car?" She says, "I never put your key anywhere," though she did it while cleaning. Mistakenly, she put it in the drawer where the spoons and such things are. Then they find it in the drawer, and she says, "You see, you came into the kitchen, you wanted to drink, and you had a key and just put it in the drawer." So we do not accept our mistakes. Those who accept their mistakes will be free from the feeling of guiltiness. When guiltiness is there, fear is there. And when fear is there, anger is there as a protection. When anger is there, discrepancy is there. Therefore, it is the purification of the entire personality—physical, astral, mental, causal. Then our brain will become calm; you will have such a feeling of joy, Ānanda, that which you never experienced. Perhaps you experienced it when you were sleeping very deep, or when you were very tired from traveling, sitting 26 hours, 36 hours in airplanes, finally coming home. You went to your bathroom, washed yourself, and lay down in your own bed. Oh God, you take a deep inhale and you sleep—it is indescribable. A thousand times more feelings of joy and happiness come if you can enter into the kingdom of meditation. So, meditation is the key to everything, and mantra. Thank you.
