Creative intelligence is a gift, it is not a right. It can't be learnt, it cannot be
shared. It's the most personal, private individual asset. You can teach people how to make things.
That's called technology. You can teach people how to trade things. But you cannot share
with people the experience. How sweet is sugar, you can't tell but you can tell this is sugar
and you can tell it is made from the sugarcane. And you can tell that it is sweet. But how
sweet, that you can't tell. The unfortunate part in life is the religious hypocrisy. Most
debauch thing, if I have experience is the religious life. I wish I should have understood
how debauchery in religious is. And I when I see that when the communist say that religion
is a OPF man and takes away from man the ego, the will, the personality, they misinterpret
it. But fact is religion and reality is so badly misunderstood by all people and is so
shallowly practiced and so hopelessly understood, that if people are suffering today, they are
not suffering because God wills it that way. It's not true. It's we who will it that way.
Basically you have to understand in life, life is based on the spirit, the strength,
the grit. Three things are very important. Manners, moral and morale. You can have a
very high morals. You can ride it all over the billboards and you write on your forehead.
You can wear clothes and you can look very saintly and you can talk very saintly. Your
manners can be very saintly. You can be most beautiful actress and saintdom just people
fall in love with you. But if you don't have a morale to keep it up, you will fall on your
face. Moral is not morale. And moral is not manners. Morale is morale. It is the continuous
truthfulness of your own trust within your own self towards the goals you have set and
thought to achieve to walk onto. You know what that means? That mean you shall never
be sick. If you ever fall sick because of some physical interference, you recuperate
very fast. There is a lot of strength. A human has equivalent strength to make God surrender
before it. I am not saying it happens every day. But human history proves that God took
the incarnation of the imagination of a human and appeared and obeyed.
Almighty God, I am not talking of a God, that little God, somewhere. And this is a recorded
history of the man. It's not that I am making it up. But the problems which we face today
in life is, it is called psychological intervention. If you are hungry and you start eating oranges.
Law of optimum return will apply. That means at thirty-two oranges, you will not need one
more. You will stop. That means no more oranges. And if somebody said, 'I will give you a
dollar for a orange more if you eat.' You may go three more and three, thirty, thirty-five
is the limit. And he said, 'Now, ten dollars per orange
more.' You say, 'No.'
(Students laugh) It means, it is done. That's law of optimum
return. That means you have reached a point where you cannot go beyond that point. It
means you are defined, you are not Infinite. Exactly when you reach at a point of optimum,
you can't do anything. Simply that life with relationship, you reach a optimum point and
it's become dead. The only way to keep it alive is to divorce. Do something. When you
cannot construct anymore, you must destroy. You cannot remain stabilized, that's not human
brain made that way. There are certain things I am talking to you now is because I do not
know how many days now and when I quit are there. So, what I am trying to share with
you certain experience which I have got in my whole life so that you may, you may not
value it or you may value out of it. That's what I am trying to explain. If you want to
understand stabilization, then understand there is only two way to stabilize. Either
construct or destroy. There is nothing in between. There is no such thing as stability.
Because you don't have a thinking power. Your brain, Shashara gives, issues through
intelligence one thousand thought per wink of the eye. Like flare of the Sun, changes
the entire magnetic field. Changes the entire Earth. So as you. The Sun spot in you is called
pineal. The pineal gland, the Shashara which keeps the clockwise and anticlockwise vibrations
is there. There are two ways to look at it. Either you be creative and keep on being creative
and become more divine and more divine or become more divided and more divided. But
if you want to understand that between divine and divided, there is any difference, the
difference is only which tendency and frequency you are working for. Some people say, 'I
have worked enough.' Right? You all say that? Is that, are we friends or enemies?
Don't you say, 'this is enough. I have done.' That is the point where you want to destroy
yourself. Enough is never enough. Never say never. Either you are on a gear car constructive
institutionalizations of your personality projection or you are on a destructive institutionalization
of your personality projection. There is no other way that your neurons in the brain even
work or can think. Do you understand what I am saying?
The problem is that I have taught in UCLA and I have taught in United State and I have
taught in International world and I am a recognized international spiritual leader or whatever
you call me. But is very funny thing when I see people are not being taught basic definitions
of ability of a human structure and possibility of human work capacity. I met Jews, I met
Sikhs, I met Moslems, I met Hindus, Buddhists, but none knows Jews doesn't know he has the
same brain and brain waves as that of a Hindu. Jew feel he has a Jewish brain, Hindu feels
he has a Hindu brain and a Moslem feels he is a Moslem brain and overall of that Sikh
feels he is a Sikh brain. Oh, brain is brain. And it has a certain workability, certain
capacity and it is made in God. And it is a visualization and workable capacity as interrelation
and interconnections are exactly the way which is in a Jew, which is in a Buddhist, which
is in a Moslem, which is in a Christian. And brain of a mother and a brain of a father
and brain of a man and brain of a woman, brain of a rapist and brain of a saint is just called
brain. And there are three things again which are very powerful in life. Brain, Bran and
Bullion. (Students laugh)
Brain, bran and bullion. Bullion means money. Power to exchange things, buy and sell. The
media of exchange which can store the services and the capacities is called bullion. Brain,
bran, brain, how you plan, think, technology, strategy. Bran, the strength, the muscle power.
Oh, that where we go, what they call that place?
Student: (-------) YB: Gold Gym. Stereotype, you know. Steroids,
what they take? Students: (----)
YB: I can't even spell it. I, I might be subconsciously don't liking that stuff. They are just'
(Imitates) (Students laugh)
And do you know they don't walk like people. (Students laugh)
They talk like people, but they don't walk like people. Because they are in one thing.
That is bran. And very funny, this wide chest and this little brain, it goes out of proportion.
(Students laugh) And they pay for it. So you do the same thing.
Some of you are too intellectual, too much brain and if you give your cup of tea, that's
how you shake. You can't even take a cup of tea in your hand? Some, you have too much
bullion. Make, sit on money, money. You talk, you talk these people, money people. 'How
much you will give me? How much you have?' They talk nothing, but two things people talk
the most. Give me the name of those please? Students: (------)
YB: Ha, Student: (--------)
YB: No, weather and money. (Students laugh)
Nobody talk about sex. Sex is a bait. Sex is the language of the hookers. Sex you use
to control or decontrol people. Sex, you don't enjoy sex. I have not met yet man in last
eighteen years in United States, who knows what sex is? Sex is sixth sense. People who
know the language and knowledge of sex, they don't talk. Do you know that? They are most
silent people. Sex is a psyche which you create to attract and distract. For sex you don't
talk. Sex is neither a satisfaction. Sex is to satisfy the control and decontrol. Sex,
you don't understand. Sex is the sixth sense. This, pistoning what you call is sex is your
physical acrobats. That is very essential. If technically done right is very healthy.
If technically done wrong, is the very unhealthy thing. Because the entire glandular system
and nervous system and pituitary, three things again, three things are involved in sex, physical
way of it. If you mess up sex, you mess up not the entire day, you mess up the entire
life. One wrong sexual communication can destroy you forever and mind you there is no recuperation.
If a man is horny and woman doesn't talk right, that's all it takes. And if a man is horny
and a woman knows how, I am not talking of practical sense, I am talking of situation.
If man is a horny and a woman just talk right, that's all it takes. So people don't talk
about sex. To start feeling sensually sexual is all this pornographic billions of dollar
business. But that doesn't mean, people talk about two things. Money and?
Students: Weather. YB: Weather. These are the two most talked
things in life. Actually there are three other things we talk about. We talk to get rid of
our anger, we talk to get rid for our frustration and we talk to get rid of our inferiority.
What did I say? Name those three things? Students: Anger, frustration and inferiority.
YB: That makes you talk. This chatterbox, cha, cha, cha' you start, the base is one,
accumulation of one energy at one time. When you talk enough, your anger goes away then
you can't talk one word like at thirty-five oranges, you can't take anymore. Same with
frustration and mostly you talk because of inferiority complex or superiority complex.
It's called complex talk. So what we say? Students: Anger talk'
YB: Anger talk. Now let us science... Oh, listen. Let's make the science out of it.
Anger talk and what is second? Students: Frustration talk.
YB: Frustration talk and third? Students: Complex talk.
YB: Complex talk. Now take these three things minus them, what can you talk? You don't talk
at all. Take one day, tape record your whole day and in the evening sit down and cut out
in these three section. The communication and then see how many words are left that
you talked. Isn't funny? Another three things, you talk to feel. You talk because of curiosity.
And you talk to lay the number. Actually for purpose and profit and for personality you
seldom talk. You are the most stupid mammal on the Earth. Every mammal on the Earth through
signals and communication talk for a purpose, protection and profit except human. Do you
understand? Actually the fish laughs at you. (Students laugh)
And so the pigeons. (Students laugh)
And dogs are really crazy about human. They say what is this guy, this guy doesn't know
any purposeful. I have'. That's why they sometimes sit and sleep. They don't care.
(Students laugh) Because one should only move in three direction.
What did I say those? Students: Purpose and profit.
YB: Purpose and profit. What that will give you? Three of them. When you talk purpose,
when you talk for profit and you talk for protection, what it will give you? It will
give you power. As what? As a human being. If any talk you talk without these three elements,
you reduce your being human to a very animal. And majority of the time we do talk very purposelessly
without any profit and we seek no protection in our communication. So my dear friends,
God has given you all what is good. But you do not know what to do. Because you do not
know the basic definition. You are in defiance. Some of the people who very much love me.
They say, 'Sir, I cannot come to your class.' I said, 'What's wrong with me now, tell
me?' 'I can't stand your direct truth.'
I said, 'When did I say speak direct truth? I have not even touched it.'
'No when I come to class, you just talk to me.'
I said, 'Well, I talk to the class. Part of it is you in the class.'
My basic approach to life is the God, the everywhere, the God the nowhere, the God,
the Almighty, God the no mighty, is just your imagination. It's not your reality. You actually
use, abuse and misuse God and its definition. You are never serious about it. But basically
you are it, that means you use, abuse and misuse yourself. Now if you totally misuse,
abuse and use all the energy which you have got, how can you be successful and what kind
of success is there when you become successful, reach the optimum point you start destroying
yourself. What's this game you are playing in life. We are part of Infinity, therefore
we should be Infinity. No stopping now. That is the life. Life is meant to be given, given
and given. So I thought today, I will just go and work
with you, open up the pineal in relationship to the Shashara and try to bring it the pituitary
in the anticlockwise so that we can see whether it affects your 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.
, the balance of
secure and insecure being. And that's my purpose of coming today was. So if you are not interested.
I mean, I am not going to tell you to walk in. But I am saying in a simple term which
you understand. Do you want your car to be tuned up in general or not? If you are not
interested for a general tune up, you can sit or for yourself class is over, you can
leave. I am not teaching these days because I have to teach, I have taught enough. But
these days I just want to share. That's the way I am. So I am going to put you through
something. So see whether you are competent to understand that your most genuine point,
the 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.
, it adjustable and your fuel engine is okay and you are making all right.
So I am using your physical body to balance your mind. I am using your neutral mindNeutral Mind
The most refined and often the least developed of the three Functional Minds. It judges and assesses. It witnesses and gives you clarity. It holds the power of intuition and the ability to see your purpose and destiny. It is the gateway for awareness.
to
understand within you, your own reality. Some of you tonight will be miserable because at
certain point you will reach, then you will find you have no stamina. I will be sorry
for you and you should be sorry for yourself. Because that means a constant flow of the
morale is not in the line of the frequency and it is out of the parallel situation and
Zee energy is not competent in your body to keep you going. And that should be a warning
point. Whenever you want to create in you, the energy
which cannot be defeated, pick up a set of 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.

and do it. Surprisingly you
can tune yourself up. That's all it takes. Those great sages and saints who make the
science and call it KundaliniKundalini

, were not out for the market. They were out for the experience
of the glory of the Infinite God. That's why this science has no attributes to itself.
No adjective to itself. It's a very straight, Hatha Yoga, you can built up your stamina,
your muscle and all that. But you can't built up your intuition. You understand? In Raj
Yoga, you can built up your knowledge and wisdom but you can't built up your intuition.
In a KarmaKarma
The law of cause and effect applied to mental, moral, and physical actions. Ego attaches us to and identifies us with objects, feelings, and thoughts. These attachments create a bias toward certain lines of action. Instead of acting you begin reacting. Karmas are the conditions required in order to balance or complete these tendencies. Though necessary, karma is not dictatorial or fatalistic. It is the mechanism that allows the finite experience of existence to maintain and stabilize itself. We all have free will and can take actions to re-direct the momentum of a karma. We can transform it or neutralize it using meditation, jappa, good deeds, or intuition that remove your sense of ego and the identification with that past line of action.
Karma Yoga
Literally, Union through action; often in reference to service in event settings.

, you can built up your good will and love, but you can't built your intuition.
There are twenty-two minor and major yoga line of activity, you can do all but you can
never be intuitive. You can be psychic all right. But never intuitive. And without intuition,
you are as naked as a dead rat is. Because you have no hoofs, no horns, nothing. There
is no protection with you. Your protection is as a human being you should be one step
ahead of time. Woman which is not one step ahead of a man, and man which is not one step
ahead of time are, have already failed. They don't need to practice time and do time to
get that. So, let us see how we do it today, okay.
It's a very typical MudraMudra
Mudra means "seal." It usually refers to hand positions used in meditation and exercise practices. These hand positions are used to seal the body's energy flow in a particular pattern. More generally it can refer to other locks, bandhas (see Mul Bandh), and meditation practices that seal the flow of energy by concentration.
. It is Saturn finger over the, is it thumb or toe?
Students: Thumb. YB: But,
(Students laugh) For some it is, they say it is thumb, but
they use it like a toe. But it's all right. No, I know you. Therefore I can, I understand
your humor. And this Sun finger will overlap and cover the nail. If you have a put on nails,
what they call them? Students: Press on nails.
YB: Press on nails. Then it maybe difficult but is all right. And these two fingers will
be straight like that. See this. Now this side same way. Now here we go. Watch out this.
As a American, you will think, what are we doing, but this is how the fingers are, otherwise
they would have been straight sticks. They are not, come on. Let's do it. Got the idea?
And, you, I am not asking you to do much. Watch this. You don't have to control your
mind, you don't have to open your eyes. See what baboon I am going to make out of you.
Watch this. I mean just understand how practical joke is this. I want to tell you where do
you come through and where you don't come through. You, you are bogositly can talk I
am macho, then somebody say, 'I am super macho.' Somebody say, 'I am so macho,
I can't even put buttons on my shirt, the open chest.' You know those kind of machos.
(Students laugh) And everybody goes in the company or society,
they tell 'I am the greatest, I am the richest, I am this, I am the sexual, I am the sexiest,'
God knows what you say? But let us see what you do here? Okay.
Now see I am going to do it. Like this. Straight. Balance should be on these two and make the
circle and go fast and fast. It has to be thirty time per second.
(Students laugh) No, no, that's what we did when we practiced.
Don't worry about it. But try to do, but make the circle. Just little. It should be about
six inches circle. Not just, tu, tu, tu' No, no, just little, little move. And please
move. I am not asking you to meditate, I am not asking you to become 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.
. I am just asking
you to keep on doing it and see how it goes. (Tape brief portion not recorded and is blank)
Experiment. But don't start cheating right now. Is this, this is what I said? No, fast,
do your best, let me put it that way. Be honest about it. See what experience you get out
of it. Student: (------)
(Students laugh) YB: I didn't say which direction, I didn't
say anything, all I said is that make a circle and go. I am just watching, what your intuition
is. I am not saying, go by anti clock or clockwise. Do whatever you want. But if your both hands
you are doing do both one way. (Students laugh)
Today it's a very happy day. It's a birthday of GuruGuru

and that means today whatever
you wish whether you deserve it or not, you will get it. I mean, that's how it's going
to, once, it come once a year. So all this food is out there. Now come on, what's going
on? It's a heavy stuff, come on. (Students laugh)
Push, aren't we the best aggressive people on the Earth called Americans? Do it like
a cutthroat. I would like to see you in a, your super macho. I know when you will do it with a heart and head, what it will
do to you. I will hear it. Go into it. And you know that halla hu, that
you put around the waist and you run it, Student: (------)
YB: Whatever that is. And you see those Chinese, they put a stick up and play it up. With that
concentration. Try it will do something. I am not promising false things. I am just sitting
here. Don't let me leave this place, if something don't happen. But just do it right. You do
your part. It will do its part. Look even Ram Das Kaur is doing. She is very, very pregnant
but she is doing fine. Avtar Kaur, you still have some tickets left?
That's a shame really. What I can say. Come on let us see what the weather is inside
the brain. What we are trying to adjust to the winds and the waves and the weather of
the human crown called Shashara, right? Come on, keep on circling. You always talk in circles.
You go in circles. You move in circles. You do so many things in circle and this is one
thing you move your hand in circle, that's all you have to do. And it will take care
of lot of stuff in you. I am not kidding. It is just like God unseen power. Move it
in that direction, see what it does to your personality. I hate to encourage you on the
way, but that's the way it works. Come on, you have been long student, keep doing. Be
serious. Do it right. (Student laughs)
Keep going. Yet you have done for two and two, four minutes. It's not enough time. Come
on, it will show up. Dr. Dayal Singh doing in a German style.
(Students laugh) No error.
(Students laugh) No error. Yeah, I can see it. Now it is perfect.
Like German perfect. (Students laugh)
Oh, you are neighbors? Why don't you make it that, neighbors perfect.
Student: (-----) YB: Irish means potatoes.
(Student laughs) When you think of Ireland, you think of potatoes,
you know what I mean? (Student laughs)
Come on folks. May I ask why you are stopping? Become resolute, have you understood, have
you heard the word English word, resolute? From which the word come resolution. From
which the situation came resolve. You want to resolve your problems or not?
Student: (----) YB: Come on, let's do it and see real. It
works or not. Even the greatest astrologer of this planet today is sitting in the class.
Hey Anitha, what this will do according to the stars? She is doing it herself. See, she
always, that's called resoluteness. Gemini part of the body is going to become Virgo.
(YB & Students laugh) Come on folks. First sign is what? Aries?
So morning you (?) and meet the sheeps, then what you do? What is the second sign?
Students: Taurus. YB: Then you milk the cows. Then what? Then
you take care of the babies and whistle them and bubble them, then what you do?
Students: (----) YB: Ha,
Students: (----) YB: Then you start cooking the crabs.
(Students laugh) Then what you do?
Students: (------) YB: Then you leave you think of being macho
looking around and go for hunting, then what you do?
Students: (----) YB: Then you come back and take off the clothes
and be nude. What else you do? (Students laugh)
Then you balance it out, what you do and what you don't. Scorpio, then you pick up a phone
call and sting somebody. (Students laugh)
Then you make a hole in your foot. (Students laugh)
What is a Capricorn? Students: (-----)
YB: Oh then you dream, then you cry little bit.
(Students laugh) Student: Pisces.
YB: Pisces, then you will run after your own tail.
(Students laugh) Isn't the twelve zodiac signs said done within
twenty-four hours. But keep moving. Now this is the time to push hard. For another eleven
minutes. (Students laugh)
Now give yourself a chance of solid eleven minutes. Test your grit.
Student: (-----) (Students laugh)
YB: No question asked. (Students laugh)
I didn't ask my teacher, I do not know what he was saying, going to say so. I didn't ask,
they don't ask me. Come on, keep going. You guys do not understand. Can't you just
not understand. It will totally tune your brain up. Don't take much of time. Actually
you are paid for the class, this is all extra. (Students laugh)
Come on, (YB laughs).
Oh, I could have come just seeing you say hello, bless you and serve you the food and
gone. But I just want to create something real so that you can experience something.
I am saying everybody may not like to enjoy to do it. But those who will do it, shall
be benefited. Come on, come on, come on, let's do it. Let's move. Let us bring the rhythm
to our entire Shashara. It will crack you up in few minutes. Don't
worry. It can't retain yourself like this. Go ahead. (?) hurry up, hurry up. Move.
We have now done for seven, eight, nine minutes only. Seven, something. Come on, do it. Now
if you would have sincerely done it you would have having to take a breath with which, which
you are, which would have been rhythmic beyond you. That's what you have to create. The Pranic
value will start creating you and that is the Pranic breath which will heal you. This
exercise is a instrument towards that, my dear. Come on, do it.
You have two more hard minutes to go. Hurry up now. It depends what you want. Come on,
come on, please, two minutes. Do it all what you can. Don't worry. Los Angeles is still
in California. (Students laugh)
It has not shifted itself to Manhattan Island. Come on, do it hard. Push, two more minutes,
what it matters. Come on, after that will come a great event. Come on, come on, see
Ved Kaur, keep going. (Students laugh)
Not fair. Please, please, keep going. Do your best, fast, fast, fast. Fast, fast, fast'
Try, fast, one more minute. It will be all over. God, hurry up. Fast. Fast. Thirty more
seconds. God, is coming to an end. Now do your best. If you have not done for the whole
time. Thirty seconds is not a bad deal. Fifteen seconds. Now get ready. Something you have
to do immediately. Five more seconds. Take your thumb and put it on a pinky and stretch
it at sixty degree all fingers straight please. Close your eyes and concentrate at your pineal
in the centre of your brain. Concentrate solid. If you miss this concentration, you should
not have been born. That's how important it is. I am not kidding with you. Concentrate

(Kirtan tape stops)
Creative intelligence is a gift, it is not a right. It can't be learnt, it cannot be shared. It's the most personal, private individual asset. You can teach people how to make things. That's called technology. You can teach people how to trade things. But you cannot share with people the experience. How sweet is sugar, you can't tell but you can tell this is sugar and you can tell it is made from the sugarcane. And you can tell that it is sweet. But how sweet, that you can't tell. The unfortunate part in life is the religious hypocrisy. Most debauch thing, if I have experience is the religious life. I wish I should have understood how debauchery in religious is. And I when I see that when the communist say that religion is a opia of man and takes away from man the ego, the will, the personality, they misinterpret it. But fact is religion and reality is so badly misunderstood by all people and is so shallowly practiced and so hopelessly understood, that if people are suffering today, they are not suffering because God wills it that way. It's not true. It's we who will it that way.
Basically you have to understand in life, life is based on the spirit, the strength, the grit. Three things are very important. Manners, moral and morale. You can have a very high morals. You can ride it all over the billboards and you write on your forehead. You can wear clothes and you can look very saintly and you can talk very saintly. Your manners can be very saintly. You can be most beautiful actress and saintdom just people fall in love with you. But if you don't have a morale to keep it up, you will fall on your face. Moral is not morale. And moral is not manners. Morale is morale. It is the continuous truthfulness of your own trust within your own self towards the goals you have set and thought to achieve to walk onto. You know what that means? That mean you shall never be sick. If you ever fall sick because of some physical interference, you recuperate very fast. There is a lot of strength. A human has equivalent strength to make God surrender before it. I am not saying it happens every day. But human history proves that God took the incarnation of the imagination of a human and appeared and obeyed.
Almighty God, I am not talking of a God, that little God, somewhere. And this is a recorded history of the man. It's not that I am making it up. But the problems which we face today in life is, it is called psychological intervention. If you are hungry and you start eating oranges. Law of optimum return will apply. That means at thirty-two oranges, you will not need one more. You will stop. That means no more oranges. And if somebody said, "I will give you a dollar for a orange more if you eat." You may go three more and three, thirty, thirty-five is the limit.
And he said, "Now, ten dollars per orange more."
You say, "No."
(Students laugh)
It means, it is done. That's law of optimum return. That means you have reached a point where you cannot go beyond that point. It means you are defined, you are not Infinite. Exactly when you reach at a point of optimum, you can't do anything. Simply that life with relationship, you reach a optimum point and it's become dead. The only way to keep it alive is to divorce. Do something. When you cannot construct anymore, you must destroy. You cannot remain stabilized, that's not human brain made that way. There are certain things I am talking to you now is because I do not know how many days now and when I quit are there. So, what I am trying to share with you certain experience which I have got in my whole life so that you may, you may not value it or you may value out of it. That's what I am trying to explain. If you want to understand stabilization, then understand there is only two way to stabilize. Either construct or destroy. There is nothing in between. There is no such thing as stability. Because you don't have a thinking power.
Your brain, Shashara gives, issues through intelligence one thousand thought per wink of the eye. Like flare of the Sun, changes the entire magnetic field. Changes the entire Earth. So as you. The Sun spot in you is called pineal. The pineal gland, the Shashara which keeps the clockwise and anticlockwise vibrations is there. There are two ways to look at it. Either you be creative and keep on being creative and become more divine and more divine or become more divided and more divided. But if you want to understand that between divine and divided, there is any difference, the difference is only which tendency and frequency you are working for. Some people say, "I have worked enough." Right? You all say that? Is that, are we friends or enemies? Don't you say, 'this is enough. I have done.' That is the point where you want to destroy yourself. Enough is never enough. Never say never. Either you are on a gear car constructive institutionalizations of your personality projection or you are on a destructive institutionalization of your personality projection. There is no other way that your neurons in the brain even work or can think. Do you understand what I am saying?
The problem is that I have taught in UCLA and I have taught in United State and I have taught in International world and I am a recognized international spiritual leader or whatever you call me. But is very funny thing when I see people are not being taught basic definitions of ability of a human structure and possibility of human work capacity. I met Jews, I met Sikhs, I met Moslems, I met Hindus, Buddhists, but none knows Jews doesn't know he has the same brain and brain waves as that of a Hindu. Jew feel he has a Jewish brain, Hindu feels he has a Hindu brain and a Moslem feels he is a Moslem brain and overall of that Sikh feels he is a Sikh brain. Oh, brain is brain. And it has a certain workability, certain capacity and it is made in God. And it is a visualization and workable capacity as interrelation and interconnections are exactly the way which is in a Jew, which is in a Buddhist, which is in a Moslem, which is in a Christian. And brain of a mother and a brain of a father and brain of a man and brain of a woman, brain of a rapist and brain of a saint is just called brain. And there are three things again which are very powerful in life. Brain, Bran and Bullion.
(Students laugh)
Brain, bran and bullion. Bullion means money. Power to exchange things, buy and sell. The media of exchange which can store the services and the capacities is called bullion. Brain, bran, brain, how you plan, think, technology, strategy. Bran, the strength, the muscle power. Oh, that where we go, what they call that place?
Student: (-------)
YB: Gold Gym. Stereotype, you know. Steroids, what they take?
Students: (----)
YB: I can't even spell it. I, I might be subconsciously don't liking that stuff. They are just...
(Imitates)
(Students laugh)
And do you know they don't walk like people.
(Students laugh)
They talk like people, but they don't walk like people. Because they are in one thing. That is bran. And very funny, this wide chest and this little brain, it goes out of proportion.
(Students laugh)
And they pay for it. So you do the same thing. Some of you are too intellectual, too much brain and if you give your cup of tea, that's how you shake. You can't even take a cup of tea in your hand? Some, you have too much bullion. Make, sit on money, money. You talk, you talk these people, money people. 'How much you will give me? How much you have?' They talk nothing, but two things people talk the most. Give me the name of those please?
Students: (------)
YB: Ha,
Student: (--------)
YB: No, weather and money.
(Students laugh)
Nobody talk about sex. Sex is a bait. Sex is the language of the hookers. Sex you use to control or decontrol people. Sex, you don't enjoy sex. I have not met yet man in last eighteen years in United States, who knows what sex is? Sex is sixth sense. People who know the language and knowledge of sex, they don't talk. Do you know that? They are most silent people. Sex is a psyche which you create to attract and distract. For sex you don't talk. Sex is neither a satisfaction. Sex is to satisfy the control and decontrol. Sex, you don't understand. Sex is the sixth sense. This, pistoning what you call is sex is your physical acrobats. That is very essential. If technically done right is very healthy. If technically done wrong, is the very unhealthy thing. Because the entire glandular system and nervous system and pituitary, three things again, three things are involved in sex, physical way of it. If you mess up sex, you mess up not the entire day, you mess up the entire life. One wrong sexual communication can destroy you forever and mind you there is no recuperation. If a man is horny and woman doesn't talk right, that's all it takes. And if a man is horny and a woman knows how, I am not talking of practical sense, I am talking of situation. If man is a horny and a woman just talk right, that's all it takes. So people don't talk about sex. To start feeling sensually sexual is all this pornographic billions of dollar business. But that doesn't mean, people talk about two things. Money and?
Students: Weather.
YB: Weather. These are the two most talked things in life. Actually there are three other things we talk about. We talk to get rid of our anger, we talk to get rid for our frustration and we talk to get rid of our inferiority. What did I say? Name those three things?
Students: Anger, frustration and inferiority.
YB: That makes you talk. This chatterbox, cha, cha, cha... you start, the base is one, accumulation of one energy at one time. When you talk enough, your anger goes away then you can't talk one word like at thirty-five oranges, you can't take anymore. Same with frustration and mostly you talk because of inferiority complex or superiority complex. It's called complex talk. So what we say?
Students: Anger talk...
YB: Anger talk. Now let us science... Oh, listen. Let's make the science out of it. Anger talk and what is second?
Students: Frustration talk.
YB: Frustration talk and third?
Students: Complex talk.
YB: Complex talk. Now take these three things minus them, what can you talk? You don't talk at all. Take one day, tape record your whole day and in the evening sit down and cut out in these three section. The communication and then see how many words are left that you talked. Isn't funny? Another three things, you talk to feel. You talk because of curiosity. And you talk to lay the number. Actually for purpose and profit and for personality you seldom talk. You are the most stupid mammal on the Earth. Every mammal on the Earth through signals and communication talk for a purpose, protection and profit except human. Do you understand? Actually the fish laughs at you.
(Students laugh)
And so the pigeons.
(Students laugh)
And dogs are really crazy about human. They say what is this guy, this guy doesn't know any purposeful. I have.... That's why they sometimes sit and sleep. They don't care.
(Students laugh)
Because one should only move in three direction. What did I say those?
Students: Purpose and profit.
YB: Purpose and profit. What that will give you? Three of them. When you talk purpose, when you talk for profit and you talk for protection, what it will give you? It will give you power. As what? As a human being. If any talk you talk without these three elements, you reduce your being human to a very animal. And majority of the time we do talk very purposelessly without any profit and we seek no protection in our communication. So my dear friends, God has given you all what is good. But you do not know what to do. Because you do not know the basic definition. You are in defiance. Some of the people who very much love me. They say, "Sir, I cannot come to your class."
I said, "What's wrong with me now, tell me?"
"I can't stand your direct truth."
I said, "When did I say speak direct truth? I have not even touched it."
"No when I come to class, you just talk to me."
I said, "Well, I talk to the class. Part of it is you in the class."
My basic approach to life is the God, the everywhere, the God the nowhere, the God, the Almighty, God the no mighty, is just your imagination. It's not your reality. You actually use, abuse and misuse God and its definition. You are never serious about it. But basically you are it, that means you use, abuse and misuse yourself. Now if you totally misuse, abuse and use all the energy which you have got, how can you be successful and what kind of success is there when you become successful, reach the optimum point you start destroying yourself. What's this game you are playing in life. We are part of Infinity, therefore we should be Infinity. No stopping now. That is the life. Life is meant to be given, given and given.
So I thought today, I will just go and work with you, open up the pineal in relationship to the Shashara and try to bring it the pituitary in the anticlockwise so that we can see whether it affects your 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.
, the balance of secure and insecure being. And that's my purpose of coming today was. So if you are not interested. I mean, I am not going to tell you to walk in. But I am saying in a simple term which you understand. Do you want your car to be tuned up in general or not? If you are not interested for a general tune up, you can sit or for yourself class is over, you can leave. I am not teaching these days because I have to teach, I have taught enough. But these days I just want to share. That's the way I am. So I am going to put you through something. So see whether you are competent to understand that your most genuine point, the 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.
, it adjustable and your fuel engine is okay and you are making all right.
So I am using your physical body to balance your mind. I am using your neutral mindNeutral Mind
The most refined and often the least developed of the three Functional Minds. It judges and assesses. It witnesses and gives you clarity. It holds the power of intuition and the ability to see your purpose and destiny. It is the gateway for awareness.
to understand within you, your own reality. Some of you tonight will be miserable because at certain point you will reach, then you will find you have no stamina. I will be sorry for you and you should be sorry for yourself. Because that means a constant flow of the morale is not in the line of the frequency and it is out of the parallel situation and Zee energy is not competent in your body to keep you going. And that should be a warning point.
Whenever you want to create in you, the energy which cannot be defeated, pick up a set of 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.

and do it. Surprisingly you can tune yourself up. That's all it takes. Those great sages and saints who make the science and call it KundaliniKundalini

, were not out for the market. They were out for the experience of the glory of the Infinite God. That's why this science has no attributes to itself. No adjective to itself. It's a very straight, Hatha Yoga, you can built up your stamina, your muscle and all that. But you can't built up your intuition. You understand? In Raj Yoga, you can built up your knowledge and wisdom but you can't built up your intuition. In a KarmaKarma
The law of cause and effect applied to mental, moral, and physical actions. Ego attaches us to and identifies us with objects, feelings, and thoughts. These attachments create a bias toward certain lines of action. Instead of acting you begin reacting. Karmas are the conditions required in order to balance or complete these tendencies. Though necessary, karma is not dictatorial or fatalistic. It is the mechanism that allows the finite experience of existence to maintain and stabilize itself. We all have free will and can take actions to re-direct the momentum of a karma. We can transform it or neutralize it using meditation, jappa, good deeds, or intuition that remove your sense of ego and the identification with that past line of action.
Karma Yoga
Literally, Union through action; often in reference to service in event settings.

, you can built up your good will and love, but you can't built your intuition. There are twenty-two minor and major yoga line of activity, you can do all but you can never be intuitive. You can be psychic all right. But never intuitive. And without intuition, you are as naked as a dead rat is. Because you have no hoofs, no horns, nothing. There is no protection with you. Your protection is as a human being you should be one step ahead of time. Woman which is not one step ahead of a man, and man which is not one step ahead of time are, have already failed. They don't need to practice time and do time to get that. So, let us see how we do it today, okay.
It's a very typical MudraMudra
Mudra means "seal." It usually refers to hand positions used in meditation and exercise practices. These hand positions are used to seal the body's energy flow in a particular pattern. More generally it can refer to other locks, bandhas (see Mul Bandh), and meditation practices that seal the flow of energy by concentration.
. It is Saturn finger over the, is it thumb or toe?
Students: Thumb.
YB: But,
(Students laugh)
For some it is, they say it is thumb, but they use it like a toe. But it's all right. No, I know you. Therefore I can, I understand your humor. And this Sun finger will overlap and cover the nail. If you have a put on nails, what they call them?
Students: Press on nails.
YB: Press on nails. Then it maybe difficult but is all right. And these two fingers will be straight like that. See this. Now this side same way. Now here we go. Watch out this. As a American, you will think, what are we doing, but this is how the fingers are, otherwise they would have been straight sticks. They are not, come on. Let's do it. Got the idea? And, you, I am not asking you to do much. Watch this. You don't have to control your mind, you don't have to open your eyes. See what baboon I am going to make out of you. Watch this. I mean just understand how practical joke is this. I want to tell you where do you come through and where you don't come through. You, you are bogositly can talk I am macho, then somebody say, "I am super macho." Somebody say, "I am so macho, I can't even put buttons on my shirt, the open chest." You know those kind of machos.
(Students laugh)
And everybody goes in the company or society, they tell 'I am the greatest, I am the richest, I am this, I am the sexual, I am the sexiest,' God knows what you say? But let us see what you do here? Okay.
Now see I am going to do it. Like this. Straight. Balance should be on these two and make the circle and go fast and fast. It has to be thirty time per second.
(Students laugh)
No, no, that's what we did when we practiced. Don't worry about it. But try to do, but make the circle. Just little. It should be about six inches circle. Not just, tu, tu, tu... No, no, just little, little move. And please move. I am not asking you to meditate, I am not asking you to become 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.
. I am just asking you to keep on doing it and see how it goes.
(Tape brief portion not recorded and is blank)
Experiment. But don't start cheating right now. Is this, this is what I said? No, fast, do your best, let me put it that way. Be honest about it. See what experience you get out of it.
Student: (------)
(Students laugh)
YB: I didn't say which direction, I didn't say anything, all I said is that make a circle and go. I am just watching, what your intuition is. I am not saying, go by anti clock or clockwise. Do whatever you want. But if your both hands you are doing do both one way.

YB: Whatever that is. And you see those Chinese, they put a stick up and play it up. With that concentration. Try it will do something. I am not promising false things. I am just sitting here. Don't let me leave this place, if something don't happen. But just do it right. You do your part. It will do its part. Look even Ram Das Kaur is doing. She is very, very pregnant but she is doing fine.
Avtar Kaur, you still have some tickets left?
That's a shame really. What I can say.
Come on let us see what the weather is inside the brain. What we are trying to adjust to the winds and the waves and the weather of the human crown called Shashara, right? Come on, keep on circling. You always talk in circles. You go in circles. You move in circles. You do so many things in circle and this is one thing you move your hand in circle, that's all you have to do. And it will take care of lot of stuff in you. I am not kidding. It is just like God unseen power. Move it in that direction, see what it does to your personality. I hate to encourage you on the way, but that's the way it works. Come on, you have been long student, keep doing. Be serious. Do it right.
(Student laughs)
Keep going. Yet you have done for two and two, four minutes. It's not enough time. Come on, it will show up.

Oh, I could have come just seeing you say hello, bless you and serve you the food and gone. But I just want to create something real so that you can experience something. I am saying everybody may not like to enjoy to do it. But those who will do it, shall be benefited. Come on, come on, come on, let's do it. Let's move. Let us bring the rhythm to our entire Shashara.
It will crack you up in few minutes. Don't worry. It can't retain yourself like this. Go ahead. (?) hurry up, hurry up. Move.
We have now done for seven, eight, nine minutes only. Seven, something. Come on, do it. Now if you would have sincerely done it you would have having to take a breath with which, which you are, which would have been rhythmic beyond you. That's what you have to create. The Pranic value will start creating you and that is the Pranic breath which will heal you. This exercise is a instrument towards that, my dear. Come on, do it.
