EXPERIENCE AND ECSTASY

SIDE-A

You are American, right? Your medical report says that you are very intelligent Americans are and they know so many excuses that nobody can deal with it. From today onward, no excuses. Done? Good deal? Where is your counterpart? Oh.

Now folks, this is what we have been doing. From last twenty-four years, without making any claims, we are teaching KundaliniKundalini Comes from the word "kundal"; coiled energy; the creative potential of an individual. Kundalini Yoga It is a Raaj Yoga that creates vitality in the body, balance in the mind, and openness to the spirit. It is used by the householder, busy in the world, to create immediate clarity. The fourth Guru in the Sikh tradition, Guru Ram Das, was acknowledged as the greatest Raaj Yogi. (See Raaj Yogi.) He opened this long secret tradition to all. YogaKundalini Yoga It is a Raaj Yoga that creates vitality in the body, balance in the mind, and openness to the spirit. It is used by the householder, busy in the world, to create immediate clarity. The fourth Guru in the Sikh tradition, Guru Ram Das, was acknowledged as the greatest Raaj Yogi. (See Raaj Yogi.) He opened this long secret tradition to all. . As western, we are a shoppers' nation. We do not have faith, trust or commitment. We don't have the same as a matter of fact as a family unit, we are afraid to talk about ourself so somebody may not know, but fact is if you talk about yourself, somebody may advise. It works both ways.

However, a, a typical human knowledge has been established. Because of the modern equipment tapes, let's say books, magazine, articles, students, teachers. Something has been established where man can combat against insanity. Now you will ask me why insanity? This is how happen. When you are innocent as a child, the entire nature PrakritiPrakriti Transcendental Nature. It is creation as we can experience it. It includes mind and matter. It is formed from the motion and interaction of the gunas. It is multi-leveled and evolved from the original consciousness of the Absolute. as a structure work for you. When you grow up in your ego, you lose your innocence and you become automatically not correct but corrupt. And this corruption brings insanity. It's a natural reaction, it's not something. As you will grow and older you will become, your duality will increase. You ask a child, "What is your religion?"

He say, "Hehihahiehaha..."

That's it. What you can get out of a child?

"What's your name?"

"Hehihee."

That's all you are going to hear. No long speech, nothing, no way; you put little finger on his belly button, he will laugh, and you know children are children. And who you are and whatever anybody is, their laughter, their love, their joy is innocent. That is called Divinity. If I am sixty-four and I am not innocent, I am not divine. I mean, most of the time I get my foot in my mouth because I, I see what I see and innocently it leaks out of my mouth, I say, "Hey, wait a minute, what is going on?"

And people don't like that. People don't like to hear about themself. They are so protective and so distance from themself. Actually, today I can say we do not know before even our death ever we have loved ourself. So once we have not loved ourself, how can we love anybody. It's all a hypocrisy and a demagogy, it's not, it's not real. Yes. We do have need of each other. Man needs a woman for screwing, if he needs her for love, then he will never screw her and he will never be neurotic about her and he will never say anything against her. It's a necessity, natural necessity. PurkhaPurkha The great Being of existence. and PrakritiPrakriti Transcendental Nature. It is creation as we can experience it. It includes mind and matter. It is formed from the motion and interaction of the gunas. It is multi-leveled and evolved from the original consciousness of the Absolute. is natural necessity. But if a man is in love with a woman, he will be very rude. Do you know that? Have you any idea? All men who say they are in love and they are kind, forget it. It, it, can't be true, by any rational reason it can't be true. Because a man in love, by nature is so demanding and so, by nature, it's, it's not something that you can change his pituitary now? What you are going to put female seed in his pituitary and reorganize him like as you have a apple and pear together? It's not possible. Man in love is absolutely lunatic; and lunatics and philosophers and lovers are the same category. I mean, it's a internationally established fact. Aashiq, paagal, the philosopher, equally lunatic, they are all three lunatics. And you have to become little bit lunatic to achieve something. And love without being lunatic cannot be loved.

There is a story of Majnu and Laila. It was a love story. And somebody asked Majnu that, "God wants to see you."

He say, "I have no time."

He say, "But what are you doing you hungry idiot, you have become a skeleton."

He say, "If God wants to see me, I have no time."

He say, "Well, if God wants to see you, He come here."

He said, "Then tell Him only become a Majnu only want to see Laila. If He takes a form of a Laila I'll tolerate Him."

Answer is lunatic, but it's a real lover's answer.

All ladies should know one thing: All men in love are lunatically commanding, demanding and wanting. And in reason, they cannot give you anything. Moment the man become rational, logical, sweet, kind, you have lost a man. You have a husband, you have a brother, you have a father. Then don't talk of a man. The day man will know to reason, logic and all that, then he is not a man, it is in relationship of his working relationship. Element relationship, working relationship and hallucination, what do you call them, fantasies.

There are three personality. That's the 'trinity' of every person. So what ladies you are dealing, is a working man; or your trouble start when you deal with a fantasizing man. Element man, no woman can deal with.

Even Shiva, when Parbati said, I mean, Parbati was the, was the most powerful female and Parbati said, "You are my Lord and I praise you, but I am ShaktiShakti The creative power and principle of existence itself. Without it nothing can manifest or bloom. It is feminine in nature. ," reminded Him.

Shiva said, "I'll burn you to ashes which will be so pure that even the Almighty cannot see it."

That was His reply. That was Shiva's reply to ShaktiShakti The creative power and principle of existence itself. Without it nothing can manifest or bloom. It is feminine in nature. . That "I'll burn you to the ashes which even God wants to see, cannot see." So where you ever find a man in this planet? These men are called two-legged mammals, with a male gender. They adapt and they are trained to adapt to be brother, to be father, to be husband. There is always a, a pigeon box in which they have to fit in. If you ever meet a man by mistake, then you have met a God. There is no difference between 'man and God' and 'God and man.' And if you ever meet a woman who will not lose her patience, you have always met PrakritiPrakriti Transcendental Nature. It is creation as we can experience it. It includes mind and matter. It is formed from the motion and interaction of the gunas. It is multi-leveled and evolved from the original consciousness of the Absolute. . Woman, there is no such thing as a woman, who will not lose her patience and technically woman is supposed to never lose her patience. Because she is PrakritiPrakriti Transcendental Nature. It is creation as we can experience it. It includes mind and matter. It is formed from the motion and interaction of the gunas. It is multi-leveled and evolved from the original consciousness of the Absolute. , she is Infinity. And when Infinity will lose Infinity, what will come out of it? Finite? And finite is not woman. Woman is not a definable character. A character, which can reproduce and recreate the universe, cannot be defined and limited. Therefore love cannot be limited. The kind of love you have that's a different, I don't want to say anything, because you like it very much, right? Well, may I ask you what this love is? Umm. You crazy creatures.

I was, I was that day discussing sibling jealousy. And sibling jealousy or lovers' jealousy or relationship jealousy, it comes on a basic commotional interlocked love. I mean as a psychologist I can understand, but as a man how can I understand it? Love is a power, it's not a shortcoming, it's not a shortage, it's not negativity.

Where there is a love, there is a God; where there is a God, there is a Daya, kindness. Where there is a kindness, there is a compassion. Where there is a compassion, there is a 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 separate it. Problem is, you want to learn. These things are not to be learned. These things are to be practiced. Kindness is to, what, where you can learn kindness? We are kind. Because we are mankind. We are humans. So we are supposed to be kind and if you are kind, you have to be compassionate. Compassionate is when you can sacrifice yourself and be kind. There is a difference between compassionate and kind. Kindness, is you are kind; compassionate, you are ready to sacrifice. And conscious, that you can go to Infinity.

I don't think anybody of here doesn't know English. Correct? And I don't think you understand what I am saying. I know, I know somebody sitting here from Harvard and somebody is from UCLA and all that stuff, but you don't understand what I am talking to you. Kindness is a essence of love. If there is no kindness, there is no love. You forgive because you love, not you forgive because you want to. The forgiveness is because of love.

Unfortunately in west, love is considered which provoke sex. No that is antlers or those rhinos things, those kind of things, that's not love, folks. You are talking about good half an hour or two hours of physical exercise. And you discuss the chemistry doesn't meet and this doesn't meet and I have gone through all this. This has nothing to do with love. Love is a dedication of one finite self, absolutely unto Infinity with perfect 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. .

And you know, you should have watched me yesterday in the GurdwaraGurdwara Literally the door of the Guru; traditional place where Sikh worship services are held. here. I couldn't say a word except I explained what I was going through. And you should have seen me when I get to Buena Park GurdwaraGurdwara Literally the door of the Guru; traditional place where Sikh worship services are held. , how I was talking and I was totally different person because there were different mammals.

Have you ever thought your greatest achievement to be kind in most unkind environments? Umm? Have you ever thought of it? I mean to say, you, you are a YogiYogi One who has attained a state of yoga (union) where polarities are mastered and transcended. One who practices the disciplines of yoga and has attained self-mastery. , you can stand on one leg and you are a saint, you can stand on three legs and you are a great SadhuSadhu A holy man. you can stand on five fingers and God knows what you can do, or you can kill a person or can shoot a person, or you are going to hang a person and you are going to declare a war or you are a president or you are very rich, but you can't digest potatoes, I mean, whatever you are. The one sign of a rich person is, he can't eat. Umhu. Anybody who you will find real rich will have a physical restriction on food. Richness and food don't go together. Because without making extraordinary neurotic effort and being a lunatic to make money right and do everything correct, you definitely lose your physical possibility of digestion. And Pepto, God bless Pepto be small, I meant to say, it's not very ordinary thing, I mean the people are like that.

So what I am trying to explain to you, try to understand life. These two days, I am not limiting myself on time, I am limiting myself to unlimited essence of you, that's why I thought I'll be in LA two days and I'll teach you a class. Because I hate to leave you alone, because when I teach in New Mexico and Espanola, and I see what happens to people in those classes, then I say, "Oh my God, those guys have left, I'll try to run back." So it's back and forth now till we get to a system. But just I wanted to let you know one thing today.

Have you ever thought that all essence of all discipline and all reality and all knowledge and all power and all what it is, is one word that you consciously, personally all the time become kind? And kindness doesn't mean no, no, no. When it's a right, it's a kindness on the part of mother to pounce on a child who is going to burn his hands. That's a act of kindness. And compassion is, at the risk of your life, you save somebody's life. And 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, you are always ready to do it. Not that when things are just down the darkest, don't call me, I'll call you. You know what I mean? I learned very hard lesson here.

Once I called somebody and that person used to be a 3HO and then not 3HO and she yelled at me, "Why you are calling me? Don't you know it is a Sunday? And in America nobody calls anybody so early? It is not India."

I say, "But once you were my student so I was not, then it was not India or Japan, but now you are reminding me I am Indian and you are a American, but question is why you are up? Aren't you going somewhere?"

And she said, "Yes."

So, so, I say, "Well I am saying," I said, "Don't go."

"Who are you to tell me? That's why I left 3HO. I don't want anybody to order me."

I say, "Just hear me once again. And after that do what you have to. I say, don't go. My name is YogiYogi One who has attained a state of yoga (union) where polarities are mastered and transcended. One who practices the disciplines of yoga and has attained self-mastery. Bhajan, I am calling you, I know you and I am saying, don't go."

"Forget it."

I say, "Forgotten, already over."

And she still knows she went, and what she paid for it. And now I call out of sympathy and 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. . I say, "Hi, don't go, how are you?"

No, I have my own humor. Why not?

Actually, the name now I call her is, 'Don't go.' Because these two eyes are given to you to see, but you are given a 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. and intuition to see the unseen. You are given the 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. to know the Unknown. You have not spent time, you have spent fourteen, fifteen, sixteen years for a career, the whole life to become a husband or a wife or a father or a mother, successful and unsuccessful, rich and whatever you call it. Have you ever spent a time to become consciously

intuitive? Have you any idea? Without being consciously intuitive, you even do not know what you are doing, what you are talking, who you are, what's going on. Have you any idea how essential it is? How exactly essential it is that you should know who you are? So? Tonight is one of that night. That you should know who you are.

Now. Tell me, if you sit like that, then put your hands like this, and move your pinkie and try not to move other fingers. It's, it's called living with the neighbors. Na, na, na, na, na. Nobody will teach you this way. I am very funny. Put your hands like this and try to raise your pinkie and try to avoid these fingers. They will move. So you should know you are never alone in this world. I mean, your main problem is loneliness. Isn't that? Ha? Ninety percent people feel they'll be abandoned or they are lonely or nobody loves them. Right? They do not know anything which moves, moves the entire universe like a ripple. It's, it's called law of action. One breath of you, you breathe in and breathe out, it moves the entire creativity of Infinity. Just to make you understand and hurt your little (?) I just want you put your hand like this and solid. These three fingers and this thumb solid and move the little pinkie and try not to move the other fingers. They will move. They will not obey you. They are like children, you know. First you give them birth, they say, "You don't love me enough."

Right? And when they grow up, you say, "You don't leave me enough."

I mean, the same children. Same children. What a psychology? Ha?

Now move that pinkie, that's the mercury finger, that's a mercury finger's communication. If you cannot keep that state and move not as fast as it should be, you are that much less as a human. Because your power is communication. Your effective powerness is your power is not that what you say, your power is the effectiveness of what you say. It is called applied communication. That is one thing in which I am Ph.D., art of communication; Psychology of communication. And that is one thing very serious. Some people talk and sit with you for six to eight hours, six to eight hours, and in the end somebody said, "Hey, Rita, what she was talking?"

And you say, "Well uncle, I don't know. She was talking."

And you say, "Janet, you were with Mary on a lunch. Three hours lunch. What happened?"

She say, "Well, we were talking."

And you say, "What were you talking?"

That was girl-talks, you know, weather and clothes and we discussed.

Look these stupid humans, how they pass their time, which they will never get. One breath of life you want to buy when death comes, you can't buy one breath of life. And you waste on a lunch talk.

Come on, that doesn't mean looking at me, move that pinkie. Yeah, move, just see what it does it you. You think you are beautiful and you can do everything. You cannot control your pinkie, what you can control on this planet, ha? Move. Move that pinkie and see how weird you will look. Because it's a mercury finger, it will itch in your whole thing. Either you will be start laughing or crying or feeling weird, I mean, it is, it, because it is a communication. Just move it. You know if you move Saturn finger up like this, you know what that does? You don't have to utter a word. These fingers are very important. Don't finger anybody. And neither finger yourself. Never cut your finger. But the most weird exercise of all human exercises is just controlling other fingers and moving your pinkie. It's the worst in the whole human race.

You know, when we teach in intelligence that man has no personality, man has no orbit, man is just obedient of that order which it is, it, it is the order which it is and then there is no order, there are some specific things. Okay. Now. Then you have to learn something that your life, your death, your torture, you may go through, doesn't mean a thing. So it's a very well believed, so when we exercise, we give them like this and we tell them, "I am not I am. I am not I am."

So please speak loudly with this "I am not I am. I am not I am."

(Students keep repeating, "I am not I am. I am not I am.").

Keep moving, moving that... It is a pinkie therapy. We can make millions of dollar by just teaching this exercise. Just move that little damn thing. See it is very easy if you tighten this up, because this is a life, sun finger; if you tighten this and move this, you become great. Loud and clear, I want to hear. Come on, come on.

Okay. You won't do this. This is terrible. I'll do it in the end, okay? Now let us do the first, third exercise which you would have done in the end, when the mercury communication through the (?). You know that you have a parasympathetic and you have a sympathetic nerve system and then your message, (?) which is called the motor, right? See? Let us do this. Can you do this? Look. See.

Now this has to be like you are holding a apple in your hand. It will sweat you to death in seconds. And that sweat if comes on the forehead, massage it back and bring first that massage situation that you can have a, sweat on your breath. It will give you sweat on your forehead and face and it's just like you are moving all the energy and just you have an apple in your hand, but there is no apple. And move very powerfully. Very violently. We give them the, what you call it, cross criminals. You know what a cross criminal is? You leave him today on a murder charge, let him go out, he will do a murder by the time he goes next block. And they have changed. It change your irrational violence, this exercise. Do it powerfully. Just like you are getting it to something. And then, with that weight, with that circle, with that weight, move. Use the power of that magnetic circle which you create by the force of the hand that your body moves. And you will sweat in few minutes.

Try it, don't do it tomorrow, but today. There is nothing much to change a metabolism of a person. These exercise give you totally a new metabolism. And you don't get it in UCLA, you get it here. Move, move with your power, with your circle, use your magnetic circle. You must understand if I do like this, it won't do a thing, but if I do like this, it will move my whole body and then automatically, second will be easy. That thing you have to create. Keep your fingers open, please and make the hand like big holding kind of bowl, so the PranaPraana , Prana 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. , the wind can go through the fingers.

It is not a step master and road master and this master, this is self-mastery. Nine hundred dollar equipment, that (?) nothing. Come on. Use, use, use. Move, move, become little violent. You know what a violence is? Come on, become a little violent. Get mad at somebody. And you have any idea to get mad? Today is the day, now is the time, get mad. At your staff, at your wife, at your husband, at your neighbor, at your dog. Anything you can think of to get mad at, this is the moment. The funny part is, if you try to get mad, it will now give you more better than otherwise, you really get mad. Any idea, "My mother didn't treat me well in 1902, my father didn't responded to me once in 603074 number......" doesn't matter whatever it is, but go ahead, create a hell. Angry, angry, angry, angry, angry you maybe. Now take the account of what your life is and how much angry you all your life is, that you have to become another two minutes. Get that all out, now. Harder.

This Sikh Sikh Dharma A living experience of values as taught in the Siri Guru Granth Sahib. DharmaSikh Dharma A living experience of values as taught in the Siri Guru Granth Sahib. Dharma A path of righteous living. It is both an ideal of virtue and a path of action that is infused with clear awareness and comprised of actions that are the soul in total synchrony with the universe. It is action without reaction or karma. office used to be a screen-therapy center. You know that? When I bought it, all walls were padded, it was a fantastic, we should not have changed, but it didn't fit us. It was like a cubicles. And they used to put people inside and only they used to give them tissues. That's it, so they can cry and be there, in the morning they open up and three hundred and fifty dollars plus, forty dollar or some per hour and it was just a racketery here.

You have exact forty-five seconds to go. Do your best. Now do your real best, honest best. Thirty seconds left. Come on, now. Whatever you can do to get angry, whatever anger will put it out, will be gone. Now don't stop, when I say "Inhale, stand by," keep going. Ten minutes, ten seconds left. Come on. Five seconds, stand by, inhale deep, keep going, now, hold the breath and move. Harder, harder, breathe out. Breathe in, keep going, don't stop. Keep going. Harder. Breathe out, breathe in, little more and go at full speed and tighter and tighter and tighter and tighter and tighter, fire out. Relax.

This was the last exercise, not the first. So I am reversing it because I want you to be here, is it okay? Ha? Was it good? You are alive? Awake?

If you ever find yourself for any therapy you are ready, sit down with this exercise and do it eleven minutes; you shall not need any counseling therapy or answer. Because there will be nothing left in you. It's called self-communication. If any person puts his all fingers, all TattvasTattvas A category of cosmic existence; a stage of reality or being; a "thatness" of differentiated qualities. In total there are 36 tattvas. Each wave of differentiation has its own rules and structure. The final five tattvas are called the gross elements and have the phasic qualities and relationships of ether, air, fire, water, and earth. like this, let the air pass through it and move the entire trunk of the body, with the magnetic field; automatically all channels in the body will get rid of any irritation whatever that may be. But it takes a trouble of eleven minutes. Five, seven minutes normally people can do, when it comes to eleven minutes, very rare people reach it. Okay? Follow the rule?

And you know the second, second communication we are going to do? Ah, twice a second, hundred twenty times a minute. Press harder. This is what I do. It will bump like a heart, you will hear a big heartbeat, back and forth, quick and fast. Oh you can hit, that, it will just adjust your TMJ and jaw, and nothing will go wrong. Already you have twinkled face, come on. Faster, move. Good. And use 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. 'HUM.' Hum, hum, hum......

Students chant 'HUM.'

Come on, it will change you. Faster and louder. Hum, hum, hum, hum...... Hum means 'We.'

And now, 'Humdum Har Har, Humdum Har,' move. 'Har, Har, Humdum; Har, Har, Humdum.'

Students chant 'Har, Har, Humdum, Har, Har, Humdum.'

Hey, You know what you are saying? Hello, stop, stop, stop. Anybody knows what you are saying? Humdum Har, Har. We are the breath of life and we are God, God. That's exactly, literally, that pattern this 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. will create in your brain. Now, do like this. Humdum Har, Har......

Press the ears, press the ears, press the ear, press the ear. See Soram, why we tie a turban?

Rhythm, rhythm, rhythm. Humdum Har. Humdum Har. Humdum Har.........

Harder. Humdum Har, Har............

Inhale. Keep going. Exhale. Inhale deep, keep going. Exhale. Inhale deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep and do it harder, harder, harder, harder, harder, and relax.

Now this practice can create a resound system, so when you say a word, it will resound impact in another person. And without resound impact system of communication, whatever you say, it is not effective. You are wasting your time. Person wants to hear your echo. And if you cannot hear what you are saying, other person cannot hear what you are saying. It is a simple rule of self. You understand? If you cannot hear what you are saying, why should other bother to hear what you are saying? And why you say things? So that you can create an impact. Change an opinion. Make another person understand. It's useless. You must have the power to hear your own echo. Once you can hear your own echo, the other psyche shall hear your echo. And some people will just understand without understanding. Have you not heard sometime somebody said, "Don't mind."

"Oh, have you understood?"

"Don't mind."

"Have you heard all this?"

"No, no, no, don't bother. It will be all done."

Do you know that? And there is a hundred percent assurance is okay. Because the echo communicates to the human heart. Sound communicates only to the interpretation of brain.

Well, if somebody start talking in French, those who know French will understand it; those who do not understand French, will not understand. But just look at me. This everybody

understands. Make an eye, everybody understand what it means. You understand? The technology of communication is what comes from a human to human through the ripple, the echo of the word.

And now the last exercise. Moving the pinkie. Come on, come on, come on, fast, fast.

We are going to do it on two and a half minute only by clock, so it's not difficult. Please try your best, concentrate, it needs your concentration. Concentrate and achieve. Be solid and serious. Now, it will go through you. Each exercise of this is for eleven minutes, all it takes thirty three minutes and person shall not have any personality problem, whatsoever. That's how important these three exercises are.

SIDE-B

Your mind state will become like a solid state, you can go through all kinds of fires of life. You have one more minute to go. Come on, move fast. Time is going, thirty seconds left.

It is okay? Well. The songs were very early songs when we started 3HO. We never play them, but they are very beautiful. Then those people who played them were wonderful. That's the way it is.

Thousands of people have participated to bring in a set of life and technology, which belongs to America. And as humble and real it is, it will continue serving the mankind irrespective of caste, creed, color, religion, faith, belief and emotion, commotions and neurosis. After all, when we enter the computer age, world will change. All this knowledge we have will be obsolete absolutely. On the press of the button, a man will have a billion fold capacity. So, when you have a knowledge of a billion fold, you have a stress also trillion fold. Then that is where the science will work and help and honor men and women to be sane again.

KundaliniKundalini Comes from the word "kundal"; coiled energy; the creative potential of an individual. Kundalini Yoga It is a Raaj Yoga that creates vitality in the body, balance in the mind, and openness to the spirit. It is used by the householder, busy in the world, to create immediate clarity.

It will be essential part of life, because there will be no time and then in few minutes men shall and women shall have the capacity to renew themself.

Age of Aquarius has just started, it is not big deal, it's couple not even years old; just imagine what will happen in ten years from now. So, there was once a time the reach of a man was only twelve miles and biggest deal of the dialect the man will change his words and his language of expression in two hundred and fifty miles. Today the whole planet earth is just one game. And we play so many games that we do not know where grace is. Because whosoever plays games have no grace. And that's the fundamental law of all our weaknesses. So please qualify yourself and whatever 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. suits you personally and you can adapt them, practice them in daily life, so that you can always bring your balance and your excellence.

No human is worth on this earth, if they are not proportionately excellent in their excellence. All wealth, knowledge, relationship, power will in the end freak out, right on you. Because your excellence if you cannot maintain, it will turn itself into a very excellent senility. And that is the downfall of a wonderful existence called human. So realize what we are talking tonight and what we are teaching tonight. It's not, it's not a religion, it is not a science, it's not a art, it is self. A self-knowledge, self-excellence and self-existence, which we need it for our own use, for our own balance, for our own harmony and it is very surprising people don't have time for it. We have time for everything else, except this. And this is shocking. But it's all right.

And my coming to United States was not to make dollars and rich and get rehabilitated. I was way, way rich and more powerful than a man can be here. That was not what was needed, what bothered me was when you western take bundles of money and go to India to learn, and come back empty handed and empty heart and empty minded, and that something made me very mad. I couldn't believe either all these people are crazy or I am crazy.

So I decided when a opportunity came to come to the west and teach people to make them teachers. I am not interested in students. That I said twenty-five years ago. That I can say it today. And a person who is not a teacher is no good a father, no good a mother, no good as a neighbor, no good as a friend and no good as a lover, because the only thing we can do to each other is to teach. Something better, something bigger, something greater. I mean, what you are telling me is the Thou and all those philosophies that don't teach masses, they will revolt.

The theory with us is, teach everything a person that they will have evolution rather than a revolution. Illiterate people and keeping illiterate people was the principle of the kingdoms so that the masses may remain illiterate and will never revolt. So they established a art of peasantry and lordship. But, according to what we believe is that let every person be so knowledgeable, so acknowledged, wise and wonderful that they can understand things.

So please, I think I am teaching tomorrow too. We'll be meeting tomorrow and then I'll leave for Vancouver, if you want to come along; airlines goes everyday. Some I am taking, some will be joining, some will be wondering, some will be thinking, but we will be in Vancouver for nine days, ten days, to have fun. It's not a very hospitable territory, but I unfortunately am one person who has the most hostile congregations. But we have to survive, there is no reason not to do it. So I'll come back and I'll be here and then I have to go to Guadalajara and then I come back and by that time I think our resident headquarters from summer will change back to LA and we have a some days of visit to this capital of smog and smoke and will be funny. Then I think we will be leaving for India trip, oh, oh yeah, I talked to him today. He says he need couple more days to totally finalize. I saw your letter also which you faxed.

It is in the end of January because the World Parliament of Religions is meeting in New Delhi, in the first week of February and you know that?

Student: (-----).

YB: No, no, no, it is a World Parliament of Religions. It's a second session of World Parliament of Religions under Sant Rajendra Singh, grandson of Sant Kirpal Singh, in New Delhi, that's what they are organizing. So far so good.

And second was that then there is a Sikh Education Conference happening in Amritsar, under Chief Khalsa Deewan, there will be very beautiful subjects. And, then I think SatSat Existence; what is; the subtle essence of Infinity itself. SimranSimran A deep meditative process in which the naam of the Infinite is remembered and dwelled in without conscious effort. is organizing some tours of some things to make it interested, saleable, something like that.

Well, and so forth and so on and life will continue. But as the days will enter, insanity and pressure will increase. There is no way out. So you have to recuperate and self-building process you have to set in, in your triumph for yourself. There is no way any vitamin can do. Somebody was telling me vitamin C can cause some stones, somewhere too, if it's taken too much. So, moderation is the rule of life and this insanity will not be in very moderation. So you have to balance out this insanity in a way that you can be happy, healthy and holy, that's how we started. Healthy, happy and holy. Three main things. So to be healthy,

"Alap ahaar sulap see nindra, daya kshima tann preeth."

These are the principles of it. Eat less, sleep less, like a nap. Eight to nine hours' sleep can make you sick. You don't sleep. You try to sleep, you go through the dreams, you go through the nightmares, you go through the convulsions, all that stuff, you call it a sleep? No. Sleep is a very sharp self-regenerating process. You get in and you get out. That's called sleep. And, eat less, sleep less;

"Alap ahaar, sulap see nindra, daya kshima tann preeth."

Daya, kindness, kshima, forgiveness, tann preeth, love. These are the ways to be healthy. To be happy, doesn't matter what comes in your way and fronts you, resurrect. Keep up and go over. And holy, healthy, happy and holy, there are nine holes, watch what come in and come out. Be the supervisor. Control your gates, apply your locks like a Panama Canal and take the ship from here to there. Nothing much to learn. May the long time.......

(The class sings, "May the long time...").

YB: Inhale deep. Deep, deep, deep.

YB & Students chant "SatSat Existence; what is; the subtle essence of Infinity itself. Sat Naam , Sat Nam The essence or seed embodied in form; the identity of truth. When used as a greeting it means "I greet and salute that reality and truth which is your soul." It is called the Bij Mantra - the seed for all that comes.

YB: Blessed God, blessed self, blessed Atman, give the blessing to myself, to my body, mind and soul. May the self resurrect itself to all faculties and facilities, observation and observe the rule of the nature. So the Mother Nature may have ecstasy and life may become beautiful, bountiful and blissful. SatSat Existence; what is; the subtle essence of Infinity itself.
