Student: Thursday night, February 20th, nineteen seventy-five Yogiji's class.
YB: Oh come on then you are going to say, "Yogiji, I never knew about it" then you come at six thirty then I should come quarter to seven, this is happening to the scientists hmm?
Now all right, we are going to talk on a very complicated subject but it doesn't matter how complicated it is but that is the very essence. Now there are certain words in scripture, which you always take it as in the sense of sexual, sensual. According to your thought pattern those words are X-rated, you understand what I mean? But in reality the entire secret of the entire science of spirituality is hidden in those words. Suppose we say Mithuna, Mithuna means anything which is blown left to right to draw the essence of, any kind of a shaker and any kind of a thing, which goes in and out. Now when I said this goes in and out you know where your mind has gone?
(Students laugh)
Because that's all we know about in and out. That is why there are centers of consciousnessConsciousness
The nature of the self and being. In the realm of nature, awareness becomes consciousness. It is from the being itself. Being is expressed in consciousness through contrasts and sensations, in awareness through merger, clarity, and reality.
, first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth. First is through which the body garbage comes out in a solid or a liquid form, solid form fine, too much solid is terrible, too much liquid is terrible. It has to be very normal. What you call it in English?
Student: (----)
(Students laugh)
YB: Through which the diarrhea comes! Where you always get the term known as 'Piles.' Now that hole of the rectum, that gateway is a very important thing in the human life. Any mess up with that is not only undesirable but it is dangerous. Apana, PranaPraana

The universal life force that gives motion. It is the breath in air. It is the subtle breath of the purusha as it vibrates with a psychophysical energy or presence. Praana regulates the modes and moods of the mind.

means the energy which keeps you alive. Apana is which brings the energy to keep you alive and eliminates which is to kill you. Urinary system, pores of the body and the rectum are three areas plus fourth is the duct in the nose where these are Pranic ducts and last is the duct in the brain. Oh what they call those two ducts here? Doctor? Up in the brain, yeah, yeah, two. So there are two ducts here, which they call is sinuses of the brain.
Student: (----)
YB: Yeah, here between the skull and all that stuff here. Oh they are there anyway.
(Students laugh)
Let us not be upset about it but they are there. Now these are known like passage through which certain things, which is the body cannot handle except we can have. Now you say but what it matters to you? Matter is moment the body is irritated by any malfunction the brain is malfunctioning, so mind gets scattered. And the most important for all importance is thought wave. Thought wave at what center your thought wave is. Up to navel pointNavel Point
The sensitive area of the body near the umbilicus that accumulates and stores life force. It is the reserve energy from this area that initiates the flow of the Kundalini energy from the base of the spine. If the navel area is strong, your vital force and health are also strong.
is the lower triangle. From navel pointNavel Point

to heart center is the central triangle; from heart to third eye is the upper triangle and then the light and then the auraAura
The radiant field of energy and consciousness that surrounds the physical body and which holds and organizes the seven centers of energy called chakras. Its strength, measured by brightness and radius, determines the vitality, mental concerns, and psychophysical integrity of a person.
, that's how we make eight centers. When we say Mithuna, it means intercourse. And actually Mithuna means to create nectar; it means any such intercourse through which the Divinity maybe experienced. You call it sexuality and sensuality because our consciousnessConsciousness
The nature of the self and being. In the realm of nature, awareness becomes consciousness. It is from the being itself. Being is expressed in consciousness through contrasts and sensations, in awareness through merger, clarity, and reality.
is as low as that. Facts are different.
Bindu means between the longitude and latitude where the longitude and latitude cross each other that point which happens is a Bindu. I know you read lot of books, I know they cost you lot of money, I know you are... you want... everybody wants to be spiritual at his own and I love it. If I have to make you spiritual I would have been sitting in the ocean by now. But certain fundamental misconceptions, which those books' knowledge give it to you, now there is a common saying, without GuruGuru
That which takes us from ignorance to knowledge; from darkness, gu, to light, ru. It can be a person, a teaching, or in its most subtle form - the Word.
nobody can be enlightened. I agree. But do you know what GuruGuru

is? The problem with you is that you want a stick to walk with it and that will twist your hip bone. Now what for you have the stick, to suffer?
Exactly the same way if you look into the entire science GuruGuru

means the one who enlightens the one. Right? Through the technology of the Gur. Gur means formula. If I have formula, I have shared with you and you have used that formula and you have become that now what I have done to you? But what you practically think that if I have a GuruGuru

he is going to touch me and my brain is going to go through LSD trip and I am going to become great or some weird thought. Some guy came to me and he said, "In your presence I see peace." Because I said, you cannot talk any nonsense in my presence, that's all.
(Students laugh)
You have thought in my mind... now this is how the psychology works. Interrelationship of psychology I am telling you. I said, "In my presence you feel that you cannot talk anything obnoxious. Is that right?"
He said, "Yes."
I said, "If you start thinking the same way in the presence of everybody, even in the presence of air you will be the most delightful person."
What good you think in the form of the one if you start thinking the same good in the form of everyone there is no better good than you. And each one has to be everyone and everybody has to be one, this is the law of polarity, nobody from any religion from any knowledge, from any book or no book can change it. Even God Almighty the Supreme Creator cannot change it because this is the principle on which He stands or on which She stands or on which It stands.
(Students laugh)
Whatever that situation is, this is the law on which the whole thing stands. And it's a matter of direction what this means. Grace, right? And what this means? The hand is,
Students: (----)
YB: The hand is the same; person is the same, only direction changes. This is good, this is terrible. Right? Lousy.
Students: No.
YB: No? No, no. See! Now this is no, this is yes. And what is this? Neither yes no maybe, can't say, I don't know.
(Students laugh)
And we call ourself humans. Isn't a joke? We call ourself to be created in the image of God, imagine the mockery we do to ourself. We are born in the image of God, and we fight on goods and we know fighting is no good. So inter-psychology in relationship to the conscious effect of the personality through which the reality is experienced by the individual is what the technology he shares and with whomsoever he shares he has a respect because that makes him respectful. He shares the grace because that makes him graceful. Nobody does to you anything...
I am not against the institution of GuruGuru
That which takes us from ignorance to knowledge; from darkness, gu, to light, ru. It can be a person, a teaching, or in its most subtle form - the Word.
, that's a must. Don't misunderstand me and misquote me tomorrow "Yogiji said so." But you always go on that trip. But my problem is I am trying to tell you that GuruGuru
That which takes us from ignorance to knowledge; from darkness, gu, to light, ru. It can be a person, a teaching, or in its most subtle form - the Word.
is in you. Why the hell you become a beggar? Why the hell you become weak? Why you become useless? Why to use this negating mantraMantra
Sounds or words that tune or control the mind. Man means mind. Tra-ng is the wave or movement of the mind. Mantra is a wave, a repetition of sound and rhythm that directs or controls the mind. When you recite a mantra you have impact through the meridian points in the mouth, through its meaning, through its pattern of energy, through its rhythm, and through its naad - energetic shape in time. Recited correctly a mantra will activate areas of the nervous system and brain and allow you to shift your state and the perceptual vision or energetic ability associated with it.
, 'I am terrible, I am miserable,' why not say 'I am great, grace of God is with me, I am all right.' Now is there anybody in the class who feels that he is a sinner, miserable, terrible? Now here is...
(Students laugh)
He has raised his hand. By raising the hand, by just saying so he has slapped on the face of his Creator. Can you imagine the work of God? He must have planned about him, thought about him, then He must have decided geometrically where he has to be born, who should have the seed, who in whom... in whom it has to be carried out? Nine months He would have taken care of this guy, all these years He has fed him, and here this evening he says I am terrible, I am miserable, how the God will like this public relation? Now question arises why people call themself miserable, terrible, hopeless all that. Do you know why? Because they don't want... they don't want to take the responsibility of action. They don't want to take the responsibility of action because they don't believe that they have that grace. And they are afraid of reaction. Everybody who is afraid of reaction is a coward. And he is a person without grace.
And until you don't believe the grace comes from God and you belong to God, your Creator, your consciousnessConsciousness
The nature of the self and being. In the realm of nature, awareness becomes consciousness. It is from the being itself. Being is expressed in consciousness through contrasts and sensations, in awareness through merger, clarity, and reality.
, you cannot be afraid of (?) and therefore you always be coward and you will always be a living nuisance. It's a simple psychology. You have to be living and you must consent and give your living consent to the fact that you have been created by the highest, you belong to the highest therefore you are highest. Neither you should listen low nor you should be low or nor you should be around the low. Because if I say this is the painting of GuruGuru
That which takes us from ignorance to knowledge; from darkness, gu, to light, ru. It can be a person, a teaching, or in its most subtle form - the Word.

at that moment but if I draw a different line and figure this painting or talk ill of this painting, one who possess it will be hurt, one who painted it will be hurt. Now it is not a question you have to be, if you have to be you should be high. Is have to... question is you are indirectly agreeing. Why you recognize low in the low? Every low has a high.
(Students laugh)
Law of polarity is every low has a high and every high has a low.
Student: (----)
(Students laugh)
YB: But at that time when mostly they are high take advantage of the tide. Take advantage of the tide, take advantage, I want you to be selfish, take advantage of the tide, God has given you the Earth to enjoy, enjoy, take advantage of the tide, be high, be spiritual, be conscious, be grateful and be graceful. Why to slap the Creator all the time and then think of mercy? God is not merciful to those who punch His nose all the time. We went to get Hukum from GuruGuru

took the Hukum. It said 'oh my bride, you can decorate yourself, and look very sweet and attractive, and you know the husband is going to love you and be around you. Oh bride be sweet and delightful, the time has come you can join the husband.'
He read it in English; I am translating what he didn't translate at that time. It really bothered me that such a coarse translation was done of such a spiritual what should we call it... spiritual, delightful action. You can think anything you like. And then it says 'oh my bride, your all décor and your beauty, your features, your charm, and your grace is no good if you have not already pleased the mind of your master.' If there is a barrier in mind even you sleep absolutely what they call it beach form, nothing is going to happen. He is going to turn to east; she is going to turn to west. Under the same blanket. We have same blanket of God over us. But we have a barrier in our mind, see how sexual it is. We don't recognize, we don't see, we don't feel, we don't cater to one who created us. It is like a sore wife who sleeps in the master bed with her husband and she doesn't even look at him. He says, "Honey!" She says, "What?" It's like a gunfire.
(Students laugh)
He says, "I want to talk to you." She says, "I want to sleep." You remember those days those stories those nights? Or if she is more cruel she will just say, 'oh you are beautiful...'
(Students laugh)
She starts snoring. That is the worst insult, man is awake, she is... or man does the same thing. They call it sneakish insult that hurts more than the other and there is another form. Guy is sick he has come and she has already left a note. 'My friend had a party and I am going... I'll be back after a week.' Can you believe that scene? That is what we do to God. We do it everyday, they call it disrespectful union. We are united with God, there is no denial of that but we are disrespectful to Him. And we know the tragedy of this whole terminology is that we are aware of it. And then we want a GuruGuru
That which takes us from ignorance to knowledge; from darkness, gu, to light, ru. It can be a person, a teaching, or in its most subtle form - the Word.
to take that garbage away so that we may not have to work for anything. It's a crazy, crazy world. The most beautiful world. Everybody has been given what he has been given. Somebody asked what is the problem with people? The sage replied, "Problem is they never wanted to come, they cried when they came, they never wanted to go, they are afraid to go."
Each one of you has no faith in God, has no love for God, has no desire for God, has no meaning towards God. From this Earth you want to go to God and you are not willing. You don't want to leave this Earth and you think you know God? Or you have to do anything? There is no love in you to go, there is no joy in you to go, your mind is blocked. God sent you here, did He do some wrong? Told you and when He called you go. From whom you have come to whom you go? But you don't believe you have come from Him, therefore you can't go to Him. And you have no GuruGuru
That which takes us from ignorance to knowledge; from darkness, gu, to light, ru. It can be a person, a teaching, or in its most subtle form - the Word.
, no guide. Therefore your stay here will be miserable. It's a wild stay, it has no direction. You have forgotten the master the one who sent you, therefore you have forgotten to whom to go, you are lost my friend.
My friend you are lost. And when you are lost you want to possess things. I want to possess things too. I want to possess good things to be left, so that others can learn the lesson, good things should be left that's what I want to possess. What you want to possess things for? Because you don't have a guide, you don't have a idea, you don't have a thought. Thought... Thaa-out! Thou personality, which is out, thought, thought is the linkage. Thought makes the emotion, emotion makes the desire, desire makes you to work. And thought is throughout. You can be a sage and you can be amazed to be a sage but you can be a idiot too because you want to go, you know you have to go, you have to be ready to go and you have to prepare to go and therefore you have to make the environments and circumstances that you should go with grace.
You come with grace, you must go with grace. This is not a permanent home; people do not put their homes on freeway. People stay in motels, temporarily and this Earth is a motel and all planets. It is not even a hotel. My friend, there is nothing, it's a motel. Here you have to warm the water to take bath, here you have to get your own food, it's a terrible motel.
(Students laugh)
There is a life on other planets. It is preplanned pre-provided life. You will find it if you live few thousand years more. But I am just telling you by the way. But that is pre-provided life. There is a hassle and you think it is permanent. There is a story, there was a very, very poor man, very, very old and very, very sick and he had all wounds on his body and his wounds will smell. He used to smell so much and his hut used to smell so much no animal used to come near. Can you understand? Imagine. He used to smell so bad that he will walk and lion will run away. Oh what is that guy who put the tail up and does the pumping? He was worst than hundred skunks! But one night it was very cold and he was sitting in his that little hut closed and warmed up, somebody knocked. He looked around; it was nothing less than a king of the area. He said, "Your Excellency, your highness, your majesty, what happened?"
He said, "First let me in."
He said, "No, it's a very dirty home, you can't get in, you live in palaces."
He said, "Forget it! Let me get in."
So he got in. There was lot of garbage, but he was freezing. So he warmed himself, he cozied himself and he got hooked to that smell, he won't go. Next morning he said, "Your majesty..."
He said, "I am tired I want to stay."
Ten days, twenty days, hundred days passed, his people came to find out and he took a sword, started fighting with his own soldiers, said, "I don't want to go, it smells nice here."
(Students laugh)
That is why where the soul is the mind is stuck with the garbage we call it stool. What is in you? Couple pounds of that... I need not say it because manners do not explain it but in medical terms they call it what... stool? You want to sit on a stool to be near the stool. And you don't want to go? You like that smell? It is a Eau de Cologne to you. And God is calling come on, your time is over, you have lived eighty years, you have collected whatever collector item you have to collect... come on you... you say, "Aah, I don't want to come."
Can you believe it? Can you believe it through the mirror look at the mirror this is what we do. When you belong to somebody and you desert then your life will be barren. You have to belong and then you have to belong. And as long as you belong you are filled, you are satisfied, you are content. There is nothing in life but to belong. My friend, there is nothing. You know when you have a date how your hours pass after four O' clock, if you have to meet a date at seven p.m. What happens? Tell me. Goodies! 'Aah I am going to meet her.'
You even don't care for the car, the speed, the light for anything. You meet her, you go, you eat and you eat and you justify your food and then you depart. How you depart? You remember. That's... because it is sensual. But if you have met a babe, she should have burn incense, she should have brought you in, she should have worshipped, she should have washed your feet with warm water, she should have fed you, she should have fanned you, she should sing to you, she should adore you, she should inspire you, she should respect you, will you ever want to come from there? Baba Singh says no.
(Students laugh)
That is why I say God lives in cozy home. God lives in cozy homes, but God's word belongs in cozy hearts. The heart, which is not cozy, neither that heart can have home nor God. It is the heart chakraChakra

. Jack of all trades, master of none! What is the use of a tree, which is standing somewhere by itself, nobody walks by its side, nobody looks at it? It got, it grew, it died. But some tree in a smog city of Los Angeles, capital of the smog world, they stand on Beverley Drive, those palm trees, they toss their head and they remind people once we were very beautiful before your cars came and burnt our fingers. But still that's beautiful. You are beautiful, you are in the image of God, but you are not willing to give a willing consent, the reaction of the willing consent is the dead-self.
My friend, you have said you belong to me, and that's it. You have said it and you have not acted; you have made the sound the life the word dead. Nothing can happen in that life. Argument, reason, explanation have no meaning in the world of words. Said and done has no difference. Honorable are those who honor their words. And whosoever will honor the word shall be the one who has found the spirit and who has found the spirit is spiritual. A simple law. Why to go into the hotchpotch of everything and write big books and somebody asked me once, "Why Siri GuruGuru

Nobody knows, no human knows when he has to die; everybody wants to make arrangement for hundred years. At the next moment he doesn't know he has to quit or not. From last six years I am listening to Los Angeles is going to go into the ocean. I thought perhaps it will go into the ocean so we will have a bath, so I never went to the ocean. Six years have gone. You mean Los Angeles has no right to take a bath? One who created Los Angeles the city of angels, if he wants to give it a bath is there any harm going with it? But there is a fear. I don't want to die, I don't want to die! When you wanted to live. You never have tried to live, you don't live at all. Then what will (?). You don't want to die because you do not know how to live. If you have experienced how to live you also know how to die, oh friends, law of polarity is those who know how to live they only know how to die. And those who don't know how to die they die every time. But once you know how to die you die never... death is not for those who play with it.

, I am going to put him in the fire." Both are going to put him somewhere. They both wanted to fight, one wise came, he said, "Look, let us put a white sheet on this beautiful body, which has guided us all the time, the body will reply tomorrow." So they left. Came next morning, took that white sheet, there was nothing but flowers. Half of it they took they buried, half of they put in fire they both were satisfied. They built beautiful monument but the master never wished it. River came in spate, never bothered anything, took away from the very root. It is the good action of us. It is the joint good action of us. It is the togetherness; it is the unity of goodness in us, which will be remembered. Nothing will be remembered my friend. You won't be remembered. In old age your youth is not remembered. But sometime we say, "Well, she used to be a good chick. Remember that?"
Melro... what they call her who committed suicide?
Students: Marilyn Monroe.
YB: See, what pronunciation everybody knows, I can't even pronounce her name. They remember... and then they say she was a sex symbol of America. I laughed, I said, "Was she not human? Was she not a human in America?" No, you don't want to remember anybody as a human. You want to remember what those actions in reaction to the psychology of the consent will belong or longs to belong. And it's a complete technology of human mind. That is why Nanak said in the company of the holy you will become holy; if somebody is not holy you are holy. If he today doesn't become holy tomorrow day after patience pays otherwise stones are heavier man. It is the faith that moves the mountain otherwise man can't move a boulder.
You can move through ego, oh I can take whole mountain. No, you can't do anything. Nothing. You can't do anything. You can't even raise your hand. You know the paralysis? You can't do anything. Just, you are just inflating yourself like a balloon. In the wave of life in the current of life you are just one little bubble. You talk loud and you talk, talk. Why? Because you have forgotten whom you belong to. You are crazy, you are lonely, you are lost. You talk about yourself how brave you are, you don't talk about the greatness the one who made you so. You puppets. Takes the beauty in your paper. You the puppet of a paper?
You have totally forgotten the one who made you as you are? And you have no attitude of gratitude? You have no kindness in your heart the one who has given you the birth, the life, the body, and its uniqueness, its mechanism, its sensory feeling, enjoy sensory feeling but be grateful also. Eat food, but say the prayer. I was one day very hungry, I said, "God, I don't want to keep you more in pain I am eating, but thank you."
You can say a quick prayer. You cannot resist. You cannot resist suppose you cannot resist. Cheese cake. Why to gulp it in? Why not say a little prayer? thank you Lord for sending me this cheese cake and I am a idiot, I can't resist, I am hypoglycemic, and I know I am not supposed to eat it but what to do. Either in future guide me right I am going to eat thank you and then eat it.

Heavens won't fall apart. He is merciful. But if you belong to Him, if you have longing to belong to Him, He is merciful. And that is the creative psychology. You have to create in you the feeling that you belong to. Your heart center must secrete. Don't think everything is in head.

So when the brain has the tension and it wants to get that tension out and pituitary is not in a formative mood, because pituitary has its own cycle. Sometime pituitary and pineal they don't obey brain. Brain nerve doesn't master them all the time. So sex trip is impossible. So it tells the stomach to secrete, then comes food. And then this lower jaw is moved. And then you feel relieved. Why not to chant and feel relieved? Try sometime when you are very hungry, sit down and chant. In fifteen minutes you will not desire to eat. Do this experiment. You know what the doctor will say? "Oh the saliva goes from the mouth and it takes care of the acidity and it is neutralized," where is the fun of function of food? All right, agreed, that maybe true. Why not to chant otherwise?
"Jap Tap Sanjam Dharam Ni Kamaya, SevaSeva
Selfless Service. the heart of the Aashram experience is serving each other.
Sadh..."
You know you have to understand this scripture. Scripture comes from the experience of the sages through all the time and ages. Until Jap Tap Sanjam, you are not meditative; you have not gone through the hardness of it. You know if you have not passed through the clouds what you can enjoy? Dharam, righteousness. Principally to stand for righteousness.

"Kaho Nanak Hum Neech Karaama..."
Nanak said you are low of the low. Let us meditate today to work on our heart center, the center of compassion where angel lives, where Divinity is, where man is and where His all power is the very fact of life so that you may not feel what you feel, but you maybe what you really are.

YB: (over the chant) Rhythm, with the mantraMantra
Sounds or words that tune or control the mind. Man means mind. Tra-ng is the wave or movement of the mind. Mantra is a wave, a repetition of sound and rhythm that directs or controls the mind. When you recite a mantra you have impact through the meridian points in the mouth, through its meaning, through its pattern of energy, through its rhythm, and through its naad - energetic shape in time. Recited correctly a mantra will activate areas of the nervous system and brain and allow you to shift your state and the perceptual vision or energetic ability associated with it.
rhythm should be perfect.
(Chanting stops)
YB: Inhale, exhale. Please remember not to do it more than thirty-one minutes until you have practiced it for a long time, it's the most powerful KriyaKriya
Literal meaning is "completed action." A Kundalini Yoga Kriya is a sequence of postures and yoga techniques used to produce a particular impact on the psyche, body, or self. The structure of each kriya has been designed to generate, organize, and deliver a particular state or change of state, thereby completing a cycle of effect. These effects have been codified and elaborated by Yogi Bhajan and form the basic tools used in yoga and its therapeutic applications.
. It is not that we don't want to chant the name of God and we don't want to have experiences but fact remains it has to be done slowly. Start with eleven minutes, next day five minutes more, next day five minutes more and go that way slowly and gradually thirty-one minutes and stay there for a while till you feel yourself perfect and keep on doing further. Not only it refreshes all your power in you but it makes you the most beautiful, most enchanting magnetic person.
Now don't think that it will do only good to you, it will do bad to you too and the point of danger is it will attract you lot of friends. It will attract you when you have never thought that it will come to you. Now people go crazy when they don't expect something and it happens to them. Therefore I'll like to warn you go slowly and gradually till you get accustomed to things happening to you abnormally. Now I am not crazy I know when we did this practice it really blew our top. Things will happen unusual, we think things will happen, one day actually I talked to my teacher, I said, "Well, should not we stop this?"
So just go slow and get accustomed to and slowly and gradually so that it may not look like unusual, okay? May the long time...
Students sing: May the long time Sun shine upon you...

YB: O formless in every form, O beyond bound by the power of love, O unknown known through Thy creation, O supreme being of all beings, O God of all Gods, Lord of all Lords, it was Thy grace you persuaded the creatures to come to create a atmosphere of God's name and persuaded the creature to talk about Thee into the ecstasy of that consciousnessConsciousness
The nature of the self and being. In the realm of nature, awareness becomes consciousness. It is from the being itself. Being is expressed in consciousness through contrasts and sensations, in awareness through merger, clarity, and reality.
. All is all Thine and through Thine mind grew into the extent of causing this prayer. O Lord God if you are that kind and merciful that you can think and consider of us give us the power to be Healthy, Happy, and Holy, give us the joy to be in Thy light and radiance and lead us unto Thy wisdom with the power of Thy attractive love so that we can serve and live for others into the bliss and joy and peace of mind, all glory unto Thee, SatSat
