... Am I early or you are late? Normally people like freedom. Freedom is very dear and very basic to a human. But freedom as individual could not be achieved that is why we have tribes, we have nations, we have countries, we have political boundaries, they were not based on the tribal areas or territory areas, they were sometime some conquered something and ruled it by force. And you will surprisingly find in Canada, Quebec wants to be separate, in America south wanted to be separate. Sometime there are combinations, economics, geographical, Canada, which you call is Canada would never have happened but for mountains and but for this, but for that. So lot of nations have come to shape, for which there was no shape. Lot of tribes became tribes without territory, without situation, but the purpose of all that is that they wanted to be free. Similarly soul couldn't be free itself. So soul took over mind and body. When soul was given the body, soul asked God, "My Lord, if I have to go for that many Pranas, but suppose I like to keep link with you what is the power?"
The God said, "You will have the mind."
So mind has the power to take you to God and mind has the power to take you away from the God. There is no other power. And it is a good polarity, what can take you to the God shall only be competent to take you away from God. That's why they say there is nothing good and nothing bad, thinking makes it so and it's very true. You have to understand that. The problem is what is God? In reality God is your own positive self, your higher self, your universal self. Self, which knows no defeat. Self, which can rise again and again and again. Like a wave in the ocean comes and comes and comes and comes. This is practically not possible.
But some people because of their weaknesses or bad training or low knowledge, call it anything you want, because of their ignorance think this world is just sensual. It's not conscious. That is where the whole game is. Whether this world is sensual or it is conscious the answer is it is essentially conscious and consciously sensual. That is the reality. That's what school 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.

YB: Really you want what you want? Your children can never be grateful to you if you are not... graceful children you will never get if you will not be graceful you as parents because on banana tree watermelons don't grow.
(Students laugh)
Children are always victim of the parental misbehavior and don't blame anybody, it is not sometime the mother can be... mothers are sometime poisonous, they ruin children. Sometime father took away the entire strength from them. But if both understand that children are theirs and they are at their mercy and they need values and they need grace and they do not fight between themself for control and authority and who wears the pant and who runs the home and towards children they behave as parents, children can be perfect. Children don't need anything, they are intelligent, they are born saints, they are very powerful. It is the goof of the one parent, which mess up the whole game. That we will investigate the part of the woman and the children later. I am not subjecting that today. Yeah?

those who have powers and those who live four hundred fifty years and never die, those creeps, I don't discuss about it. I don't know why a man has to live four hundred and fifty years, what for?

Don't bother what your ideas are, idea is bad or ideas are good. They are ideas. Don't feel bad about it. Don't feel upset about it. Whatever comes to you, look at it at a conscious scope.

, you don't have a pure food, you will be a mess. I mean sometime we had a fight with Sikhs, right? They said why you do this, why you do this? Now I am very shocked who even admits them to be Sikhs. A Sikh has published a pamphlet, which came to my hands yesterday.
Now I tell you what a Sikh he is. He is about sixty some year old, he is known drunkard, he colors his beard, he eats meat, he runs around with known and unknown everything. They are deadly against American or western Sikhs, deadly because they had a one girl, who first became a Sikh and did not remain a Sikh and she has changed two-three names, I do not know, which name she is known now. And these two men think she is a Goddess. And these three men trial think they hold the entire Sikhism in the cup of their hands. Because we practice Yoga and we practice KundaliniKundalini

Do you know otherwise what ritual is? First of all the master will never receive you. But if he receives you, he will put you through a test. You know what the test time is? Twelve years. If you serve the master of a KundaliniKundalini

twelve straight years without one fault you are entitled to one lesson. If you serve, first of all you should be in such a situation that master can receive you. That's different. If he receives you then you serve him flawlessly twelve years personally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. How to serve a master in the SukhmaniSukhmani

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.
, house of the master, what he should do? It's very clearly written. So you serve a master for twelve years. Then you are entitled to one lesson. And what is that lesson? Anybody can tell me? Haa? First lesson when a master, I am telling you what I went through, don't worry about it. First lesson is live to obey. After twelve years of obedience, after twelve years of?
Students: (----)
YB: You are told, 'live to obey.' And what you have to say? 'Yes master.' I mean your consciousnessConsciousness

cannot reach it. You hassle to obey. I am telling you... now I can explain because at that time I was shocked too. What is he saying, what is he saying... live to obey? But twelve years what I have been doing? But I was intelligent and I was conscious and I have a conscious scope and my master spoke and master speaks never wrong. What is said first is always right, it always happens, it is always Akashic, it is always truth. How subtle it looks and how bad it looks or how good it looks, what comes... Sehaj, spontaneous, is God's will. After it is the job of the master not to give you the spontaneous truth, then he wants to know where you stand. Then you put yourself in the pit. That I knew. And my master said "Live to obey." I said, "Yes, sir!"
I went back; I was so disturbed, I said, "After twelve years master gave the lesson. And what is this lesson?"
So next day in the morning after we finished SadhanaSadhana
, Saadhana
A spiritual discipline; the early morning practice of yoga, meditation, and other spiritual exercises. The Aquarian Sadhana can be an individual or group practice; Ideally, it includes the recitation of Japji Sahib, a Kundalini Yoga kriya, and chanting the Aquarian Sadhana meditations, immediately followed by Gurdwara. According to Yogi Bhajan, the potency of any Kundalini Yoga and meditation practice will be enhanced in a group setting.

Existence; what is; the subtle essence of Infinity itself.
there and we were eating and they asked me, "Oh by the way, yesterday you were given the audience," to be with the master is to keep your mouth shut. Audience is when he calls you for the lesson. Only then people go. They put in request, I put in many time request, then he said, "Oh no, tell him he is not ready yet."
That's all. We learnt. And they said, "What he said?"
I said, "Quite a bit."
"What was it?"
I said, "You all will laugh."
And he said, "Well, tell us."
I said, "All he said is live to obey."
And he said, "What the hell you have been doing so far?"
I said, "Well, you know we are together, master said it."
He said, "But why didn't you ask him what it means?"
I said, "What fool you are? I mean to say after twelve years he tells me live to obey and immediately on the spot I tell him what it means. I mean to say I am not yet crazy that much. You better shut up, don't mislead me, it's all right what he said, I know or not doesn't matter. It will come to me."
He said, "In another twelve years?"
I said, "Yeah, there is a long life, I got to find what he said."
And that day I know after the evening RehirasRehiras
One of the daily prayers of the Sikhs, recited in the evening which adding energy to one's being.
, I lied down, I remember it very particularly. And I said, he said 'live to obey.' Live to obey that means I have been trying to obey. I have been trying to obey and now he agrees that my try is good enough that I can live to obey. And I said, "That's okay, that's nice."
Next day I went and I saw his grace, he was happily sitting, he looked at me and he said, "Hehe, did you understand the meaning of the lesson?"
I said, "Yes sir."
"What is it?"
I said, "You have blessed me."
He said, "Yeah, I blessed you many times, what do you mean bless you?"
I said, "Now I shall live to obey."
"Why?"
I said, "You said it."
Nothing more... I never told him I have understood it, I have dawn to me; I satSat

down under the stars and not a thing. Just remember with a spiritual teacher, don't make prefaces. It's a waste of that precious moment, it's delay of that blessing. It is just skipping the time. It is that moment, which can totally rewrite your destiny is your teacher. Never ever make prefaces. It will never happen. You will miss the boat so bad that you can't believe it. He said, "But I said you live to obey."
I said, "Sir, that's what you said."
"What it means?"
I said, "It means exactly to live to obey."
"What you are going to do?"
I said, "I am going to live to obey, nothing else. That's it."
"Do you understand the meaning of it?"
I said, "It doesn't mean anything. I have to understand nothing. You said it; I have heard it and it is it."
"Okay."
I said, "Okay, as you said."
He said, "Go and bring water mixed with goat's milk. Go bring water mixed with goat milk."
Now try to tell me what it means. Come on yeah, it's a simple thing. Go; bring water mixed with goat's milk. Exactly tell me what you understand out of it? It's not a big puzzle.
Students: (-----)
YB: Go; bring water mixed with goat's milk, that's all it means. There is no... exactly if you look at it, it doesn't sound right. If you hear it go bring water, mixed with goat milk. That's all it is. Go, bring water mixed with goat milk and bring it, that's all, there is no second bring it. I went, I brought water, and there was goat milk and all I did is picked the goat milk, put it in, mixed it and hand it over to him. He drank it, never said a word. Gave me the glass, I took the glass. Put it where the glass is to be clean. That's it, I went away. Third day we met again, and he said, "Are you sure that you understood what I told you?"
I said, "Yes sir, I am sure."
He said, "I think so."
And I said, "Thank you."
He said, "You know how to cook onions?"
I said, "Yes, I know how to cook onions."
(Students laugh)
I am explaining you the days of trial, it's very difficult. To hold your ego back and to talk exactly you are supposed to is the most intelligent conscious act. Very difficult, we talk yeyeyeyeyeye... Doesn't make sense. I said, "I exactly know how to cook onions."
He said, "All right, cook onions, mix them with beans, and see the beans are very soft and then make what you call is a curry and bring it over with three chapatis made out of maize..."
What you call it corn?
Students: (-----)
YB: "Yes sir." I went; I cooked onions, now how you cook onions? Come on.
Students: (-----)
YB: You put them on fire, you cook onions, he didn't say boil onions, steam onions, do anything, cook onions. It means there is a fire element, then there are onions, that's it. So what I did is took a big bush of onions and I hung it like you hang a chicken on the fire, I put it on there. And they got really well-cooked. Juice was coming out of them, it was fantastic. So I cut them out all, total got whole thing and Rajma you know (?) that was steamed. It was really soft. And I made the masala perfect separate. Put the onions, put the rajma in it, mix it, took three corn chapatis, went, gave him to eat. He ate every bit of it because he wanted to find a fault.
(Students laugh)
That was his version of it. In the end washed his hand and said, "What are you doing tomorrow?"
I said, "Well, I have to go to college, I will come back, nothing much. What is your wish?"
He said, "I like to give you a lesson."
I said, "Fine, I'll be there."
So I came and I asked somebody, I said, "Well, he called me for a lesson what about it?"
He said, "I don't know, he is sleeping."
And I said, "What should I do?"
He said, "I don't know he is sleeping and he has called you for a lesson."
I said, "What do you say? Should I go or should I not go?"
He said, "I don't think you should go."
I said, "Okay, thank you."
I opened the door; I went and satSat

down on the charpoy and he looked at me and he said, "Good you came in. Master the sleep."
I said, "Thank you."
He said, "Oh your time is up, go to the college."
I came ran to the college. This is how they teach. You are... it was my hurry that I had to build a Khalsa Nation and it was your destiny, two things will work. I have to pay my debt; you have to have your destiny. So we worked it out. There was nothing in between. But when the generations will follow us and the masters will be born then you will realize how much price one has to pay for a lesson. You don't even understand the faculty, the institution of a master or a spiritual teacher whatever you want to call him. Yesterday day before somebody was telling me if I deny you as my teacher, I have to come eight point four million lifetimes, is that it? Is that is the trick? Is that is the... what he said? No, no, it is... haa?
Students: (-----)
YB: There is a very ugly word they normally use.
Students: (-----)
YB: Oh is it that's all is that your trip? I said, "I definitely feel that I am denied as your teacher and I am so grateful that you even do not know my happiness."
And I said, "If in eight point four million lifetimes you ever get resolved I shall be so grateful you can't believe it." I said, "This is it. I'll pray for you, but I know it won't work."
There is no need to be afraid of insulting a spiritual teacher. You should do that. But sometime... just sometime it disconnects you and that connection then God can't put it together. There is only one thing, which is not in the hand of Almighty God. It is not in the hand of Almighty God, there is only one thing, God can do everything but God can't force a master to accept the student back. God even can't do it. To give Ravana the liberty the NarayanNarayan

to give him the freedom. This is the story. What is then this master trip? What is this spiritual trip? What is this man you should look to, love to and obey to? Do you understand that at all? What is the difference between a one intelligent man and this man called master or spiritual teacher? Hmm?
Student: (----)
YB: A spiritual teacher can give you a A-A-A, a spiritual teacher can give you A conscious connection, A conscious experience, that's it. That's the price of it. All men are men, all men are good, all men are vicious, all men are evil, all are great, all this, all that. But A experience you can develop that experience like you can develop a seed or you can throw away that experience. It's your problem. It is not the master's will. A experience. A conscious touch, that's it. What is life? In life each one born shall meet once the spiritual teacher, shall get one conscious experience and get one conscious act, this is called Trinity of spirituality. This is called Trinity of spirituality. That's it. There is no argue, there is no reason, there is not... you know you can live the way you want to live. Don't feel yourself to be slave to anybody. Do what you want to do. Don't worry at all.
You are born, you can die, the master is born, he will die. But that A, A touch, A experience so and so touched my 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 always say 'so and so touched my heart,' right? You can feel that? So and so touched my 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.
. So and so touched me and that conscious experience of that touch, first is touch, then is the experience of that touch and that is all this Earth is about my folks. You can be wife, you can be husband, you can have two, three hundred sex, you can serve whole life. I tell you something, you read SukhmaniSukhmani

Don't ever misunderstand, Dekho, listen to this, all of you are sitting here, you honestly go twenty years back. Okay? Did you ever thought that you will wear this BanaBana

Students: (-----)
YB: Anybody? You ever thought you will wear Churidars?
Students: (-----)
YB: Never, never! So many people hate Churidars because they can't take it off fast.
(Students laugh)
You know what I mean? Yeah, definitely. Ever you thought that you will wear, put a turban on your head? Never. In India nobody wears it. In India no woman wears the turban. They are women, they are not Khalsa women. My idea was that these people have destiny, at least let us give them the look. Provide them the lens through which they can see what a Khalsa is... I am not hundred percent sure that you are all Khalsa. I am not saying, you may not be one percent Khalsa or you maybe hundred percent Khalsa. I am no judge of it, it's between you and 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.
. I have nothing to do with it. And if even I know I am not going to say a word. No. But that lens sometime Bibiji asks me, really, she is right sitting here, "What is this turban? Where it came to you?"
And I tell her, I said, "Honestly, I don't know."
Oh one day Premka tied it, one day this... I said exact to honest I exactly do not know why the American women started tying turban, but now I know and I don't tell.
(Students laugh)
I know and I don't tell. It was that one feeling, that one touch, that one awakening when they said, "I am the daughter of GuruGuru

." And it is amazing today, today you can goof around. God, you commit two hundred blunders and three hundred mistakes, sometime try to put a turban on your head and just feel what it represents if you just remember it, see how pure you become. That's what it is. It was not selling things. I don't sell chunnis, do I? I fought a chunni fight you can't believe it.
(Students laugh)
Gursher Kaur knows it. Just on one chunni I was asked every concession I want, every command I want. She said, "I'll obey exempt for this summer from chunni." I said, "You may walk nude, exemption I'll never give. You can walk nude, I have no problem with that but you ask me to give concession, no. Permission? No. Agreement? No."
"What it means?"
I said, "Nothing. The water of the gutter goes back to the gutter. I have no problem. But I shall not amend the rules. I with my consciousnessConsciousness

Some have done good bye, some should do good bye, some are out to do good bye, some may grew good bye that does not mean a thing.
When I came from India I never wrote you a letter of invitation. 'My dear X-student I am visiting United State of America and in your destiny it is written to study with me please come.' Hell, I never did. Can you show me one letter?
(Students laugh)
Ah? Why you came? I don't know. And why you are here? I don't know. And why you don't leave? I don't know. And when you are going to leave? I will never know. I am here as I know, I used to test people to give them God consciousnessConsciousness

I have to come all the way back to recuperate myself. Is that not enough a punishment just one mistake. That's why now all the paraphernalia around me and everything comes and they say well this, well that I always sneak out to say 'who is this? Whose phone call is this? What is happening?' I don't my subconscious I just don't want to miss it again true. No, no it, it's very painful to give you a conscious KundaliniKundalini

was his student both were sons. It is not written as an obligation, thanks to all this what has happened that both sons are now becoming my teacher they are calling me and telling me what to do I am so glad it happened. It's amazing something hit them hard, something awakened some, something happened very happy situation now. "Papaji?" "Hah BhaiBhai
Brother.
, what is it?" "Da-da-da...," I said "Wow, far out" this guy was so, so in different world now, "Papaji" it's a very fun to watch. It's a fun to watch what should I do, what should I not to do. But it happened it may not have happened. We could have forced the horse to come to a water but horse has to drink it, just understand that master domain is a very single domain don't trust it. Remember one thing, master domain is?
Students: Single domain.
YB: It's called Ek. You know these guys Ek masters.
Student: (-----)
YB: Have you seen them? (?) you remember him? And they started that Ek. What they call themself?
Students: (-----)
YB: It is Ek Ong Kar and they are Ek masters and all that. Scripturally it is well defined don't, their practice is totally something it is called Ek-domain, master domain is called?
Students: Ek.
YB: Ek-domain. It is what presides over Thuria stage, fourth Padh, fourth stage. Some people call it Sach Khand. What is the beauty of it? You totally behave as normal with all your strength and weakness but you do not lose the link with the one. Kar is Kar. With Kar you behave, Ong you are. Ong creates the Kar. But Ek remains Ek. It is called Ek Padh, Sammathi.
(Punjabi)
Yeah it is called one the stage of the one and reconciliation, conscious reconciliation. The link with one is not broken. Sometime what happen is there, there develops a paraphernalia around the master okay? You understand what that and sometime it happens, it happened in the life of Lord BuddhaBuddha
An enlightened one; founder of the Buddhist faith.
. His people wanted to control him. Now master can be control only by a Supreme master. Master cannot be controlled by left, right things. So one, one bikshu who was very desirous to become a master and he thought BuddhaBuddha

So BuddhaBuddha

used to love these mushrooms. Yeah, he used to love these fried mushrooms it is one of his food which he used to live on in his old age. Because they are light they don't bother you. So he gave there is a poison mushroom he gave BuddhaBuddha

that day the dish of poison mushroom and when he brought BuddhaBuddha

should die so BuddhaBuddha
An enlightened one; founder of the Buddhist faith.
died. What he wanted to become is second BuddhaBuddha
An enlightened one; founder of the Buddhist faith.
he couldn't because immediately other people found out what he did and that's it. He ran for his life he slipped and he fell right into the death and died on the spot that's a story which tells you.
Best thing is in life in the spiritual world is, it's better to just serve the love and the truth and not the master. Stay away because if you do not have 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 serve the master what is the idea of that service. That is why we as Sikhs worship the master of all the master the Supreme Master Siri GuruGuru

will read it. As my master told me live to obey I got out of it what I got out of it. You can serve the man there is no problem and man will serve you. But don't mix the man and the master at the same time because oil and water can be mixed but they can never become one that is the master and the man. You understand that? You can mix the water and the?
Students: Oil.
YB: And you can put it in a one bottle you can do anything whenever there shall be a test of time you will find oil become separate, water separate. As you cannot mix the oil and the water you cannot mix the teacher and the man, it will be a mistake. The realms of life, realms of life also is the realm of consciousnessConsciousness

You know how ugly that was? That black camp dog, did you see that? Ah?
Students: (-----)
YB: You all looked at it, I looked at it too. My compassion came through poor thing and I told you to get it done you got it done that's the difference between the eye and the master's eye. You understand that? That dog was running all around you I didn't pay for it, did I? Nobody asked me, nobody send the bill maybe I don't know.

Students: The eye fell.
YB: Eye fell. Yeah, word nai don't wait, don't understand blessing and all that na, na, yeh eye hai it's master's eye. It's not these two eyes you are talking about it's the mental eye, it's the tenth eye. When master's eye focuses on you the consciousnessConsciousness

These describe the sequence of creative expression from inner essence to full manifestation. Antar is the inner essence and being. It is before form. Each essence has an associated structure in time and space, a dimension to it, bantar. This structure is fulfilled by an appropriate matching set of qualities, jantar, which has a unique sound resonance, mantar, and a distinct visual form, yantar. This form and energy interrelate to the universe, tantar, creating a projection and track as it threads through time and space, patantar, until finally achieving its liberated form, beyond time and space, sotantar. This form creates a neutral point that ties together many of the polarities inherent in Prakirti to embed and express the essence of the antar in creation.

And he is pretty good he goes (?). And he cannot speak English are you feeling, are you feeling after a words I remember are you feeling. So and first I never knew what he is saying.

just to give you for affection." Arey, take it say thank you forget it. The most wonderful thing which I experienced in my life once I told somebody, "I love you."
She said, "What you mean?"
I had a shock of my life you could have seen me I went pale. I said, "What? Did I say something wrong?"
She said, "Yeah I want to know."
I said, "I know not that you didn't deserve it; it was on my part I withdraw my words and thank you." Never talked to her again, it is ten years ago never forgotten it either. Some people even do not want to be loved. They cannot be even told 'I love you.'
What is that teachings of 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 that thing? Attitude of gratitude. Huh? Anybody remembers it? No.
Student: (-----)
YB: Anybody has a copy. What is it? Ah?
Student: (-----)
YB: Oh, give it to me I will read it. I used to read it myself all the time. Oh, at least somebody has a book. You are new in 3HO? Must be.
(Students laugh)
You will be blessed forever.
Student: (-----)
YB: Yeah. Your newness is gone and if God does not come through for you then there is no God. And without reading a book, teachings will always come through you. Same it happens to me, I never read a book. (?) Huh, look at this? This is what I said.

, a teacher, a messiah, a master is a technical know how man. If he doesn't work for you find another. Other technique, if that doesn't work for work find another technique every part doesn't fit every car. Very good, people after even writing written this people still think they can run me round. When a man becomes a man he gets hue around him. Then the center is fixed, yeah pretty powerful thing in this. Huh, every word uttered by you must come back to you within twelve years and it must grip you within the scale of seven. Seven years this is the law of nature. I think you have forgotten basic things sometime.
Does anybody know under what it comes? It starts with attitude of gratitude. Something else comes with it.
Student: (-----)
YB: Huh?
Student: (-----)
YB: Did somebody put on the top of these poles those that thread I said ah?
Student: (-----)
YB: Those buns otherwise this, the wind can technically take it away. Actually what we should do is on the top there are those nails right you have to made there very tight bun and it is done and then when that goes in and fixed and something is done then this, this thing can't happen which happened to you last time. Now, what should we do is find that somewhere. All of you can work it out and find out. Oh, they will find it out don't worry. Hey, your glasses are very slippery?
Student: (-----)
(Students laugh)
YB: Now I can read through your lenses don't worry. The great 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.
of this age is keep up. One line, 'those who do not know how to live to their word shall never have the knowledge to know God, period.' Can you believe that? Huh, a very two line statement. If you meditate on the primal sound you will see the unseen, you will hear the unheard and you will feel the unfeelable, simple. There are lot of good subjects on it. You know introduction to Sa-Ta-Na-Ma meditationMeditation
Dhyan. It is a process of deep concentration or merger into an object or a state of consciousness. Meditation releases reactions and unconscious habits and build the spontaneous and intuitive link to awareness itself.
word love, woman, happiness, self, wisdom, God, mind, realization, polarity, devotion, relationship and technique. How many of you have read it? How many of you remember it?
(Students & YB laughs)
Try to remember it, it will come handy. Okay, girls you work it out, search it out (?) glasses slip all the time here you go. Realize that this life is a gift and it's a conscious gift God gave you conscious gift. Therefore you should take it consciously, live consciously. There are no two opinions about it. Now, questions yeah?
Student: (-----)
YB: What she said?
Student: (-----)
YB: You have to say it loud?
Student: (-----)
YB: God is senses and God is 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 know every hill has a top and a bottom which way you want to go. Evil is God too there is nothing without God. Who made the hell? Me? God hell and heaven, up and down, bad and good is all God. We have the freewill to choose. Yes?
Student: (-----)
YB: Purity is just like a clean house it makes you feel good. It's the conscious cleanliness, it is the ethics it is the moral, it's the honesty, it's the commitment. It's a lot of things. Why we put fences around the house so that every dirt should not walk in. Why we put doors and windows? Why we put shutters? Why we put curtains? These are all fences, they stand out to give us a reminder what is our territory, what is our identity, what is our jurisdiction and that is the purity. Because if we are pure, we are clean then our soul, light can shine through our own mind and we can be creative and beautiful. The real strength, the real beauty is that of the soul which should not be blocked by the darkness of the mind. Yeah?
Student: (-----)
YB: No, no, no, no subconscious is your hidden experience, your hidden agenda and so long you will deal things with subconscious through your hidden agenda you are cursed. Subconscious hidden agenda is nothing but a curse.
Student: (-----)
YB: Mostly things come from subconscious mostly. That's why people suffer otherwise what is the idea of suffering? Who can make you suffer? Your own subconscious, hotchpotch will get you in trouble. Consciously the, consciously when you act you can't suffer. Conscious, conscious living is God living it is direct God (?). Yes?
Student: (-----)
YB: Oh, when there is a fear of God you do not do hanky-panky to others that's exactly what it means. In Siri 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.
GranthGranth
Literally: knot: book.
when it comes the when the God give you the fear of the Lord or God's fear it means do not harm anybody Ahimsa, compassion that's what it means. God fear only means don't harm anybody. God's fear does not mean stand and shake. Don't take that concept please. God fear means when you have fear of God you should not do wrong to anyone including you. Yes?
Student: (-----)
YB: Sacredness of marriage is you want to know my version or you want to know real version?
Student: Both.
YB: My version in sacredness marriage is don't allow the let down because what is the marriage? Marriage is not husband and wife as you think. Marriage is the children, the future, the tomorrow. Give them a chance. That's what marriage is about. You know what I mean everything else you can do without marriage even you can produce children without marriage but the sacredness of the marriage is what it is. There is a girl she has been fighting with me "I want to divorce, I want to divorce."
I said, "Don't have a divorce and don't you feel for the children."
And finally, she said, "I will leave DharmaDharma
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.
if you don't allow me divorce."

and said, "My Lord I think I have the devotion for you and I don't have any Kam, KrodhKrodh
Anger. It connotes the negative parts of the experience of anger. Unreleased internal anger leads to confusion and impulsive action. This results in a loss of the inner clarity, wisdom, and sense of guidance derived from buddhi.

created a MayaMaya
The creative power of the Creator that restricts and limits. It creates the sense of limitation that leads us to identify with experience, the ego, and things. Because of this it is often thought of as the illusion that blocks us from the spirit. But, as Guru Nanak (see Sikh Gurus) reminds us, you need not be attached to the productions of maya. Instead they can be used to serve and express the higher consciousness and spirit. Maya is simply Karta Purkh, the doing of the Great Being. Maya takes the ineffable into the realm of the measurable.

And he said it all in one breath. Then five ten, twenty thousand whatever the decade was came after the story of Ramayan. So sometime Phagta can really do it in. It was all you, you, you. It's very funny the other story of the Phagta is this Hanuman, Hanuman the Ram Das the servant of Rama. He saw his wife Lord Rama's wife Sita wearing this red thing in her head as a decoration. He said, "Mother why you do this?"
She said, "That will in enhance life of Lord Rama that's a worship. I dressed up and then I put this red symbol of life so that my husband should always be my crown."
He said, "Yeah."
She said, "Yes." He went and he brought lot of Sindur all that red stuff put on all his hair because she had only hairs on the head this guy had a hair on all over his body. So he put all that on all his hair and came jumping "Ram, Ram, Ram" and spoiled every carpet and every floor, you know.
(Students & YB laughs)
Lord Ram looked at him and said, "Hanuman what's wrong with you?"
He said, "What's wrong with me I am all right don't you like it?"
(Students & YB laughs)
He said, "Well, I have no choice but who, who told you do this?"
He said, "Mother Sita."
Lord Ram said, "There must be some (?)," called Sita and said, "What you told him?"
She said, "Nothing I was putting Sindur he walked in and he said why you do it? I said for your long life so this is what he did. I didn't tell him to do all that."
Lord Ram laughed, he said, "Hanuman whosoever shall worship me you are Ram Das now that's that said that time you are Ram Das. Everybody has to worship you first to reach me." That's why in Hindu mythology if you go to Ram's Temple LakshmiLakshmi
Hindu goddess of love, harmony, and prosperity.

And they understand mythologically, mythologically I am right but they say, 'no, no, no, Krishna, Krishna.'

Make her bed somewhere here give her a foot massage and sit around her and let her tell you story than watching Indian movies.
(Students laugh)
Isn't that best? Three weeks, three weeks mean twenty-one days right? Two days off it means six days half so about fifteen days is that? Am I right? Fifteen working days she can tell you about thirty stories, two stories in night is not big deal.
(Students laugh)

You know the energy of the human is so much if he cannot do right thing he has to do wrong things there is no way out. I always wish and pray 'God why don't you do one thing those people who do not know good things let them not do wrong things, let them stay neutral' but there is no such thing like that. Life moves either it moves towards God or it towards. That's what I said those who have left at least one thing I told them all 'please don't slander' they couldn't help it. It's funny phenomena to see it and watch it so. Well, you are left; you have left what is the idea of saying untruthful lies for nothing. But, that's how it goes and most painful is those who used to love to touch the feet and they are the one who love to slap the face.
