SIVANANDA - BLISS DIVINE: Path to Inner Mastery, Self-Control & Liberation – Swami Sivananda · THE SECRET LAW OF ATTRACTION: Manifest Wealth, Success & Abundance

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Bliss Divine Swami Sivanandah introduction. The Yatman bliss is the
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: essential nature of man. The central fact of man's being
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: is his inherent divinity. Man's essential nature is divine, the
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: awareness of which he has lost because of his animal
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: propensities and the veil of ignorance. Man in his ignorance
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: identifies himself with the body, mind, prana, and the senses.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Transcending these, he becomes one with Brahman or the Absolute,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: who is pure bliss. Brahman or the Absolute, is the
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: fullest reality, the completest consciousness, that beyond which there is nothing,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: That which is the innermost self of all is Atman
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: or Brahman. The Yatman is the common consciousness in all beings.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: A thief, a prostitute, a scavenger, a king, a rogue,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: a saint, a dog, a cat, a rat, all have
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: the same common Oatman. There is a pair and fictitious
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: difference in bodies and minds only there are differences in
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: colors and opinions, But the Atman is the same in all.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: If you are very rich, you can have a steamer,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: a train, and worship of your own for your own
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: selfish interests. But you cannot have an aughtman of your own.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: The Aatman is common to all. It is not an
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: individual's soul registered property. The Atman is the one amidst
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: the many. It is constant amidst the forms which come
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: and go. It is the pure, absolute, essential consciousness of
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: all the conscious beings, the source of all life, the
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: source of all knowledge is the Aatman by innermost cell.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: This outman or supreme soul is transcendent, inexpressible, uninferable, unthinkable, indescribable,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: the ever peaceful, all blissful. There is no difference between
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: the Aatman and bliss. The otman is bliss itself. God, Perfection, peace, immortality,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: bliss are one. The goal of life is to attain perfection, immortality,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: or God. The nearer one approaches the truth, the happier
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: one becomes, for the essential nature of truth is positive,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: absolute bliss. There is no bliss in the finite. Bliss
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: is only in the infinite. Eternal bliss can be only
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: from the eternal self. To know the self is to
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: enjoy eternal bliss and everlasting peace. Self realization bestows eternal existence,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: absolute knowledge and perennial bliss. None can be saved without
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: self realization. The quest for the absolute should be undertaken,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: even sacrificing the dearest object, even life, even courting all pain.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Study philosophical books as much as you like, Deliver lectures
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: and lectures throughout your global tour. Remain in a Himalayan
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: case for one hundred years, practice priniam of breath control
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: for fifty years. You cannot attain emancipation without the realization
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: of the oneness of the self. What moksha implies, oneness
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: of self or oneness of existence is reality, and the
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: realization of this reality is mokshah, the liberation or release
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: from the cycle of death and rebirth. Mokshaw is the
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: breaking down of the barriers that constitute separate existence. Mokshaw
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: is the absolute state of being, where the unity of
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: all pervading and all permeating consciousness is realized with certainty,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: like that of an orange which we see in our palm.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Mokshaw is not an attainment of liberation from an actual
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: state of bondage, but is the realization of the liberation
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: which already exists. It is freedom from the false notion
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: of bondage. The individual soul feels itself to be in
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: bondage on account of ignorance caused by the power of
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: a Vidya. When the false belief caused by delusion is
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: removed by knowledge Javattmann, the state of mokeshot is realized
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: then and there in this very life. It is not
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: to follow after death. The cause of delusion is the
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: desire in man. The desires generate the thought waves, and
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: the thought waves veil the real nature of the soul,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: which is blissful, immortal, and eternal. When the desires are annihilated,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: knowledge of Brahman dawns on the individual. Knowledge of Brahman
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: is not an action. You cannot reach Brahman even as
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: you cannot reach yourself except by knowing yourself. Knowledge of
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Brahman is absolute and direct. It is intuitive, experience, reason,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: and intuition. Intuition dawns like a flash. It does not
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: grow bit by bit. The immediate knowledge through intuition unites
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: the individual soul with the supreme soul. Intuition merges the
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: subject in the object of knowledge, together with the process
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: of knowing, into the absolute. Where there is no duality.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: In intuition, time becomes eternity, space becomes infinity. Intuitive knowledge
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: alone is the highest knowledge. It is the imperishable, infinite
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: knowledge of truth. Sense knowledge is a knowledge of appearance
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: and not of truth. Sensing is false knowledge, and intuition
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: is right knowledge. You can attain atmagnana, or knowledge of
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: the self, through intuition and intuition alone. Without developing intuition,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: the intellectual man remains imperfect. Intellect has not got that
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: power to get into the inner chamber of truth. Intellect
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: functions in the realm of duality, but is powerless in
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: the realm of nonduality. Mind and intellect are finite instruments.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Reason is finite. It cannot penetrate the infinite. Intuition alone
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: can penetrate the infinite. The scientific attempts to prove the
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: infinite are feudile. The only scientific method here is the intuitional.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Meditation leads to intuition. Meditation is the key to unfold
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: the divinity or aughtman hidden in all names and forms
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: the meditational process. There is no knowledge without meditation. The
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: aspirant churns his own soul. Truth becomes manifest. Through regular meditation.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: You gradually grow in spirituality. The divine flame grows brighter
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: and brighter. Meditation gradually offers you the eternal light and intuition.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: By constant practice of concentration and meditation, the mind becomes
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: as transparent and pure as a crystal. The din of
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: the strife for things mundane becomes smaller and smaller. As
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: one recedes inside. There are laws on the new plane.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: The music is different, the notes are very sweet. There
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: is a perpetual pervading of something better. The luster of
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: spiritual awakening changes the perspective, and one seeks devotedly that
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: which will bring him real, lasting joy and peace in
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the long run. Therefore, the seeking of material and immediate
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: advantages becomes less urgent. Meditation leads you more and more inward,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: from the gross to the subtle, from the subtle to
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: the subtler, from the subtler to the subtlest the supreme Spirit,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: going beyond the consciousness of the body. By meditating on
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: the Lord, one attains the universal lordship. All his desires
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: are satisfied. Meditation is the only right, royal way for
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: attaining immortality and eternal bliss. Peace and bliss are not
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: to be found in books, churches, or monasteries. It is
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: realized when knowledge of Ottman dawns Why do you read
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: many books? It is of no use. The great book
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: is within your heart. Open the pages of this inexhaustible book,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: the source of all knowledge. You will know everything. Close
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: your eyes, withdraw your senses. Still the mind, Silence, the
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: bubbling thoughts, make the mind waveless. Merge deep into the
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: atman or the self, the supreme soul, the light of lights,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: the sun of suns. All knowledge will be revealed to you.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: All doubts will now vanish. All mental torments will disappear.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: All hot discussions, heated debates will terminate. Peace and senana
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: knowledge alone will remain. All names and forms vanish. In
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: deep meditation, there is consciousness of infinite space. This also disappears.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: There is a state of nothingness suddenly dawn's illumination. Nervikalpa
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Samadhi the bliss of samadhi. Nervikalpa Samadhi is the realization
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: of the highest value. During Nervikalpa Samadhi, the reality is
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: intuited in all its wholeness. It is the experience of
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: oneness with the absolute. You have brahmic super consciousness in
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: place of the still jieva living being, consciousness, experience of
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: fullness is called samadhi. It is freedom from misery, It
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: is bliss. Absolute samadhi is not the abolition of personality.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: It is the completion of personality. In that state of
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: supreme illumination, you feel the oneness of subject and object.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: You see nothing else, hear nothing else, know nothing else.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: The knowledge simply illumines. It does not require you to
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: do something after that illumination. To know is to be.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Knowing and being cannot be separated. Chit and sat are
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: one and the same. Where absolute knowledge and absolute existence prevail,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: there is also absolute bliss. The bliss of self realization
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: cannot be described in words. Tranquility which nothing can touch,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: supreme peace without a ruffle, light and bliss unalloyed such
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: as the glimpse of self realization. Sensual pleasure is nothing
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: when compared with the bliss of meditation and samadhi. Rise
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: from the sense life, awake and realize that you are
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: the pure, immortal oughtmen. Behold the one aughtman in all
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: beings and attain immortality and bliss eternal. Hear all about
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: aughtman or soul, then understand they aatman. Then reflect on
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: the Yatman. Then meditate on the Yatman. Then realize the
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: atman tact fam aci that you are. You are Atman oughtman.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Are you realize this and be free. Nothing can hinder
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: thee from the realization of thy essential nature. Self realization
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: is not an invention. It is only discovery of the self.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: It is knowing one, it is awareness. Self realization is
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: nothing to be attained afresh. You need not reach or
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: attain the Yatman or the self. You are indeed the
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Atman or supreme self. Only you will have to open
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: your inner eyes. The Vedanta philosophy summons the individual to
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: his own freedom, glory and dignity. Know this source of freedom,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: the root of bliss, and be free. Bliss is indeed
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: by essential nature. Bliss is your birthright. You are a
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: glorious air to bliss infinite. Realize this bliss right now,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: in this very second. Look not outside for light, peace,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: joy and bliss, but look within. Mogshaw or salvation is
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: neither in heaven nor in ampticilis the inexhaustible, supreme, divine treasure.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: The atmic pearl is locked up in the chambers of
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: your own heart, in the casket of silence. Discover the
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: true reality in the very heart of your own subjectivity,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: in the very depth of your own being. Maya illusion
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: and mind. There is no duality in reality. All modification
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: is illusory. Multiplicity is an illusion. Maya project's multiplicity. Maya
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: creates division, division between the individual's soul and the supreme soul.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Maya is a tremendous, delusive power of God. Maya is
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: the material stuff of this world. Maya is the source
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: of the physical universe. This world of names and forms
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: is a false show kept up by the jugglery of Maya.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: Just as a stick burning at one end, when waved
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: round quickly, produces an illusion of a circle of fire
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: a lot of chakra, so is it with the multiplicity
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: of the world. Maya deludes us. Maya havocs through the mind.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: The things that we perceive all around us are only
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: mind in form or substance. The world is a product
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: of the mind. The whole world is an expansion of
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: the mind. The entire universe arises and exists in the mind.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Nothing of the world is outside the mind. Earth, mountains,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: and rivers all are fragments of the mind, appearing as
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: it were to exist outside the world does not exist
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: by itself. It is not seen without the aid of
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: the mind. It disappears when the mind ceases to function.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: It is imagination alone that assumes the forms of time,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: space and motion. Space and time have no independent status
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: apart from Brahmin or the self, which is awareness. There
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: is no space without time, and there is no time
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: without space. Space and time go together. Space and time
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: are interdependent. They are unreal. Time and space are mental creation.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: Time and space are mental projections, unreal as dreams. However
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: real they may seem to be, they are not ultimately real. Timeless,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: spaceless Brahman is the only reality Brahman alone is. It
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: is Brahmin alone that shines as the world of variegated
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: objects like waves, differentiating the water into many kinds of foam, bubbles,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: et cetera. Brahman appears as the world when cognized through
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: the mind and the senses, matter and spirit. This whole
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: universe is the body of God. This entire world is
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: God or Viratsvarupa. This world is not a world of
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: dead matter, but a living presence. This world is a
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: manifestation of the Spirit. The fundamental error of all ages
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: is the belief that the spiritual world and the material
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: are separate. Spirit and matter are neither different nor separable.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: Matter is spirit cognized through the senses. Matter is spirit
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: in manifestation. Matter is spirit in motion. Matter is power
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: of the Lord. Matter is dynamic aspect of the static Lord.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: The world is an expression of Brahman, the Absolute. This
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: world is a shadow of Brahman. It is an overflow
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: of the bliss of Brahman. It is an emanation of God.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: It is a manifestation of God. It is a reflection
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: of God. The world is charged with the splendor, glory,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: and grandeur of God. God is the one light that
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: shines in various forms. He is the one voice that
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: speaks in various languages. He is the one life that
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: thrills through every atom in the universe. God fills everywhere.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: God is equally and fully contained in all things. The
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: world is a play of God. God the warp and
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: the wolf is blended with the world. As there is
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: no difference between gold and ornaments, so there is no
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: difference between God and the universe. God is the relisher.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: He himself is the relish. The world is not different
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: from God. God is within and without everything. There is
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: no place where God is not. Everything is God, and
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: there is nothing but God. Is the world unreal? In reality,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: there is no world. It is a mere appearance, like
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: the snake in the rope. All names and forms are unreal,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: like the shadow, like water in the mirage, blueness in
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: the sky. The unreality of the world is the truth
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: in the ultimate analysis, but in relative existence one cannot
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: deny it. It is quite real. From the empirical standpoint.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: This world is not absolutely unreal because you experience it,
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: you feel it. It is not absolutely real also because
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: because it vanishes when you attain wisdom. This world is
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: unreal for whom and when For a liberated sage alone,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: this world is unreal. It is a solid reality for
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: a worldly man. When you wake up alone, the dream
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: becomes unreal. When you are dreaming, the dream is quite
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: real to you. This world is unreal. But in what
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: sense is it as unreal as the horn of a hare,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: or a barren woman's son, or the lotus in the sky. No,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: it is not as much solid or reality as Brahman is.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: When compared with Brahmin, it is unreal. It is mere appearance.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: Creation is the appearance of the Lord who is one
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: as many Atman, who is one and immutable by nature,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: seems to have assumed innumerable forms. Brahman or the absolute
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: manifests itself as the universe through forms the riddle of evil.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: This world is God's revelation of himself. His bliss or
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: joy assumes all these forms. All life is alike. The
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: universal heart beats in the minutest life. The Lord breathes
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: in all life. Just as one thread penetrates all flowers
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: in a garland, so also one's self penetrates all these
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: living beings. Behold this, one's self in all, Serve all love,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: all be kind to all. Give up the idea of diversity.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: The world is neither good nor bad. The mind creates
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: good and evil. Thinking makes it so. To the good,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: the world is full of good. But to the bad
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: the world is full of evil. The evil is not
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: in the world, It is in the mind. Man sees
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: only the reflection of his mind. If you become perfect,
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: the world will appear good. Behold the Lord always in everything.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: You will see no evil. You will see good. Everywhere
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: you will find peace, unity of existence. One soul abides
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: in all. There is one humanity. There is one brotherhood.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: There is one atmahood. None is high, none is low.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: All are equal. Vain are the distinctions. Man made barriers
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: should be ruthlessly broken down. Then alone there will be
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: peace in this world. There is only one caste, the
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: caste of humanity. There is only one religion, the religion
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: of love. There is only one commandment, the Commandment of truthfulness.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: There is only one law, the law of cause and effect.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: There is only one God, the omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient Lord.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: There is only one language, the language of the heart,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: or the language of silence. All life is one, The
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: world is one home. All are members of one human family.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: All creation is an organic whole. No man is independent
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: of that whole. Man makes himself miserable by separating himself
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: from others. Separation is death. Unity is eternal life. Cultivate
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: cosmic love, include all, Embrace all, Recognize the worth of others.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Destroy all barriers racial, religious, and natural prejudices that separate
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: man from man. Recognize the nondual principles the imorti essence
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: within all creatures, protect animals. Let all life be sacred.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: Then this world will be a paradise of beauty. A
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: heaven of peace and tranquility, When one oughtman dwells in
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: all living beings. Then why do you hate others? Why
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: do you sneer and frown at others? Why do you
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: use harsh words? Why do you try to rule and
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: domineer over others? Why do you exploit others? Why are
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: you intolerant? Is this not the height of your folly?
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: Is this not sheer ignorance? Learn to live as members
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: of a single family. Champion the ideal of one humanity.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Live in peace in one world. All are children of God.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: The whole world is one family of God. Feel this,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: Realize this, be happy, Behold the one in all and
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: all in one. Feel I am the all, and I
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: am in all. Feel all bodies are mine. The whole
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: world is my body, my sweet home. Feel I work
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: in all hands, I eat in all mouths. Feel I
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: am the immortal self in all. Repeat these formula mentally
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: several times daily, repeat o M mentally and feel oneness
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: of life or unity of consciousness. When you play football
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: or tennis, when you drink and eat, when you talk
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: and sing, when you sit and walk, when you bathe
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: and dress, when you write a letter, when you do
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: work in the office. When you answer calls of nature,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: spiritualize every movement, action, thought, and feeling, transmute them into yoga,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Yoga and the practice of religion. Yoga is a conscious
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: and sustained attempt towards self perfection. The goal of yoga
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: is to calm the mind so that it may mirror
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: without distortion, the Yatman that is behind the mind. Restrain
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: the senses, control the mind. Meditate regularly. Be a yogi.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: Be a yogi, Be a yogi, lie the yogic life,
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: and spread the great doctrine. You have forgotten to look within,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: to gaze within, to introspect, con trait and meditate, and
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: so you are ignorant. You are lost in darkness. Introspect,
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: look within, Try to remove your defects. This is the
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: real Sodenaw realization. This is the most difficult Sodnaw practice.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: You will have to do it at any cost. Intellectual
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: development is nothing. It is more easy. Sit at the
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Central Library Baroda or Imperial Library Calcutta for three to
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: six years with a dictionary by your side. You can
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: develop your intellect, but removal of defects needs a great
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: deal of struggle. For many years, many vicious habits will
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: have to be rent asunder. There are big mandelswars who
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: can deliver lectures for a week on one sloka of
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: the Guida or the Upanishads. They command respect, and yet
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: they are disliked by the public because they still have
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: great defects. They have not done much introspection. They have
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: not done drastic sodonat to remove their defects. They have
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: developed only their intellect. What a great pity. True religion
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: begins where intellect ends. An impure heart, a conceited intellect
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: cannot understand the spirit of religion. Religion is a manifestation
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: of the eternal glow of the spirit within man. The
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: main purpose of religion is the unfoldment of the divinity
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: within man. Prayer and meditation are the chief pillars of religion.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: A life of selfless service and sacrifice, with regular prayer
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: and meditation is the highest religion. Practice of religion is
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: the practice of righteousness, goodness, justice, truth, love, and purity.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: The righteous man is the truly religious man. The ringing
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: notes of religion are be good, do good, be pure,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: be kind, be compassionate, deserve all love, all seek God
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: in all the practice of these precepts alone will awaken
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: man to the consciousness of the unity of existence and
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: the realization of the divine Spirit within and without. Religion
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: is life, Life is sacrifice. One may meticulously perform religious
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: devotion and yet be very irreligious at heart and conduct.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: Religion should be a living experience in the life of man.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: Religion is living, not speaking or showing real Religion is
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: the religion of the heart. The heart must be purified
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: first the path of selfless service. Practice the religion of
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: the heart. Build on the edifice of love. Selfless service
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: purifies the heart and opens it for the receipt of
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: divine light. Plunge in selfless service. Cheer up a man
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: who is in distress. Encourage a man when he is dispirited.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Wipe the tears of the afflicted. Remove the sorrow in
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: a man by kind loving words. Make a man smile
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: when he is in despair. Be a lamp to those
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: who have lost their way. Be a doctor and nurse
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: to the ailing patience. Be a boat and bridge to
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: those who want to reach the other shore of fearlessness
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: and immortality. Do your duty to the best of your ability,
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: and leave the rest to God. Do all your actions
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: detachedlye in a spirit of dedication to the divine. Then
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: actions will not bind you. Your heart will be purified.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: Spiritualize all your activities. Let your eyes look with kindness,
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: your tongue speak with sweetness, your hand touch with softness.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: Be thou as compassionate as Buddha, as pure as Bishma,
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: as truthful as Harraschundra, as brave as Beema. Feed your
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: mind with thoughts of God, your heart with purity, and
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: your hands with selfless service. Remain soaked in the remembrance
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: of God. With one pointed mind the goal of life.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: God has a master plan. We have our parts to play.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Play out your part well in the worldly play. But
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: do not fetter yourself. Keep your mind steady on the
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: lotus feet of the Lord. You will swim in the
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: ocean of divine bliss. Have no attachment for this mortal
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: body of flesh and bone. Cast it off like a
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: slew anywhere, just as the snake throws away its skin.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Make up your mind to give up the body at
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: any moment. Become absolutely fearless as long as there is
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: the least dhad hyaca identification with the body. So long
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: you cannot expect self realization, Exhibit undaunted spirit, intrepidity and manliness.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Make a strong resolve I will die or realize. Birth
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: and death, bondage and freedom, pleasure and pain, gain and
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: laws are mental creations. Transcend the pairs of opposites. You
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: were never born, you will never die. You are the
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: immortal self always, O Love, you are ever free in
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: the three periods of time. It is the physical body
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: that goes and comes. Recognize, O Love, that you are
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: the living truth. Realize that you are always inseparable from
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: the one essence that is the substratum of all these
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: illusory names and forms, these false, shadowy appearances. Get yourself
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: firmly established in the brahmin the light of lights. Nothing
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: can disturb you. Now you have become invulnerable. Feel this,
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Feel this through intuition. When you enter into deep somady
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: or supreme silence, my child, the god of death will
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: tremble before you. Now by your command, the sun shines,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: the fire burns, and the wind blows by your command,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: and Indra, projapati Agne and Varonet do their respective functions.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: Thou art beyond time, space and causation. You must not
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: be afraid of Maya now she is under your perfect control.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Now stand firm like the yonder rock. Be adamantin. Move
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: about in the world now like a lion, and lift
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: up the young struggling souls out of the mire of
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: some saraw cycle of death and rebirth. Disseminate knowledge of
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: the self, share it with others. Be Catholic, liberal, universal,
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: all inclusive, love all, be kind to all. Expand thy heart.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Have space in thy heart for all, even for that
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: man who is planning to poison you, who is drawing
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: the dagger to cut your throat. Become a practical wise vedantin.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: Become a creod Vatin. Rely on your own self, your
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: own inner spiritual strength. Stand on your own feet. Do
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: not depend on money, friends, or any one. When the
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: friends are put to the test, they will desert you.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Lord Buddha never trusted even his disciples. When he was
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: seriously ailing, he himself jumped like a frog to drink
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: water from the river. Be not bound to anybody, any place,
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: or thing. Do not desire to possess possessions, bring pain.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: Become absolutely freed by identifying with the inner self, thy
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: inner ruler, immortal challenge the whole world. Now stand up,
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Oh love, follow me, Enjoy the bliss of Ottman. The
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: river of atmic joy is flowing all around. There is
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: a deluge of bliss of self. Drink this nectar to
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: your heart's content. Care not for the world, go thy
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: own way. Let others hoard up wealth and become more
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: multi millionaires and mill owners. They are misers only. Let
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: others become barristers, high court judges and ministers. They are
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: still ignorant men. Mind not a bit. The wealth of
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: the three worlds is nothing, mere straw before the spiritual wealth,
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: the wealth of Atmachnana sole knowledge. The joy of the
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: three worlds is a mere drop when compared to the
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: ocean of bliss of the self. The knowledge of all
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: secular sciences is mere husk when compared to the knowledge
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: of the self. Here are the priceless treasures of Otman
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: for THEE. Here is the inexhaustible wealth of brahmach Nana,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: supreme spirit Knowledge. Enjoy these riches. No decoit or robber
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: can rob THEE of this imperishable wealth of tatvich Nana
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: reality knowledge. No insolvency, no failure of bank, no bankruptcy.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Here take possession of this spiritual treasure, the splendor of
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: Brahmin and enjoy forever and ever. Thou art now a
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: real king of kings, Shah of Shahs, Emperor of emperors
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: Inja and Brahma will be jealous of THEE. Now o love,
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: go and distribute this imperishable wealth of knowledge of self
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: far and wide glory unto THEE. Peace be with THEE
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: forever and ever bliss Divine Swami sivanandah One Ahimsa. In
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: the regeneration and divinization of man, the first step is
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: to eliminate the beastly nature. The predominant trait in beasts
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: is cruelty. Therefore, wise sages prescribe to Himsa. This is
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: a most effective master method to counteract and eradicate completely
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: the brutal cruel passers of Haava. In Man. Practice of
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: Ahimsa develops love. Ahimsa is another name for truth or love.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: Ahimsa is universal love, It is pure love, It is
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: divine prem Where there is love, there is a Himsa.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: Where there is a Hymsa, there is love and selfless service.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: They all go together. The one message of all saints,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: prophets of all times and climes is the message of
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: love of Ahimsa, of selfless service. Ahimsa is the noblest
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: and best of traits that are found expressed in the
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: daily life and activities of perfected souls. Ahimsa is the
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: one means not only to attain salvation, but also to
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: enjoy uninterrupted peace and bliss. Man attains peace by injuring
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: no living creature. There is one religion, the religion of
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: love of peace. There is one message, the message of Ahimsa.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Ahimsa is a supreme duty of man. Ahimsa, or refraining
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: from causing pain to any living creature, is a distinctive
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: quality emphasized by Indian ethics. Ahimsa or non violence, has
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: been the central dar doctrine of Indian culture from the
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: earliest days of its history. Ahimsa is a great spiritual force.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: Meaning of ahimsa. Ahimsa or non injury, of course, implies
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: non killing, but non injury is not merely non killing.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: In its comprehensive meaning, Ahimsa or non injury means entire
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: abstinence from causing any pain or harm whatsoever to any
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: living creature, either by thought, word, or deed. Non injury
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: needs a harmless mind, mouth, and hand. Ahimsa is not
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: mere negative non injury. It is positive cosmic love. It
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: is development of the mental attitude in which hatred is
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: replaced by love. Ahimsa is true sacrifice. Ahimsa is forgiveness.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: Ahimsa is sacti. Ahimsa is true strength. Subtle forms of
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: hymns only the ordinary people think that ahimsa is not
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: to hurt any living being physically. This is but the
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: gross form of ahimsa. The vow of ahimsa is broken
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: even by showing contempt towards another man, by entertaining unreasonable
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: dislike for or prejudice towards anybody, by frowning at another man,
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: by hating another man, by abusing another man, by speaking
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: ill of others, by backbiting or vilifying, by harboring thoughts
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: of hatred, by uttering lies, or by ruining another man
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: in any way whatsoever. All harsh and rude speech is hymsa.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: Using harsh words to beggars, servants, or inferiors is himsa.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Wounding the feelings of others by gesture, expression, tone of voice,
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: and unkind words is also hymsa. Slighting or showing deliberate
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: discourtesy to a person, before others is wanton hymsa. To
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: approve of another's harsh actions is indirect hymsa. To fail
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: to relieve another's pain, or even to neglect to go
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: to the person in distress, is a sort of hymnsa.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: It is the sin of omission. Avoid strictly all forms
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: of harshness, direct or indirect, positive or negative, immediate or delayed.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: Practice Ahimsa in its purest form, and become divine. Ahimsa
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: and divinity are one. Ahimsa, a quality of the strong.
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: If you practice ahimsa, you should put up with insults, rebukes, criticisms,
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: and assaults. Also, you should never retaliate nor wish to
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: offend anybody, even under extreme provocation. You should not entertain
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: any evil thought against anybody. You should not curse, You
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: should not harbor anger. You should be prepared to lose
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: joyfully even your life, in the cause of truth. The
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: ultimate truth can be attained only through ahimsa. Ahimsa is
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: the acme of bravery. Ahimsa is not possible without fearlessness.
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Nonviolence cannot be practiced by weak person. Ahimsa cannot be
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: practiced by a man who is terribly afraid of death
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: and has no power of endurance and resistance. It is
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: a shield not of the effeminate, but of the potent.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: Ahimsa is a quality of the behavior of the strong.
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: It is a weapon of the strong. When a man
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: beats you with a stick, ye should not entertain any
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: thought of retaliation or any unkind feeling towards the tormentor
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Ahimsa is the perfection of forgiveness. Remember the actions of
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: great sages of your Jayadeva, the author of Gitagovinda, gave
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: large and rich presents to his enemies who cut off
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: his hands, and got Mukthi for them by sincere prayers.
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: He said, O, my lord, thou hast given Mukthi to
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: thy enemies, Ravna and Kamsa. Why canst thou not give
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: Mukthi to my enemies? Now a saint or a sage
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: possesses a magnanimous heart. Pavahari Baba carried the bag of
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: vessels and followed the thief and said, O, thief, Narayana,
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: I never knew that you visited my cottage. Pray accept
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: these things. The thief was quite astonished. He left off
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: his evil habit from that very second and became a
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: disciple of Pavahari Baba. Remembering the noble actions of saints
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: like Jayadeva and Pavahari Baba, you will have to follow
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: their principles and ideals gradational practice of ahimsa. When thoughts
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: of revenge and hatred arise in the mind, try to
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: control the physical body. In speech. First, do not utter
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: evil and harsh words. Do not censure, Do not try
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: to injure others. If you succeed in this by practice
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: for some months, the thoughts of revenge, having no scope
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: for manifesting outside, will die by themselves. It is extremely
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: difficult to control such thoughts from the very beginning without
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: having recourse to control of body and speech. First, first,
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: control oh your physical body. When a man beats you,
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: keep quiet, suppress your feelings. Follow the instructions of Jesus
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: Christ and his Sermon on the Mount says Jesus. If
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: a man beats you on one cheek, turn to him
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: the other cheek. Also, if a man takes your coat,
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: give him your shirt also. This is very difficult. In
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: the beginning, the old sam scares of revenge tooth for tooth,
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: tit for tat, eye for eye, and pain in the
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: same coin will all force you to retaliate, But you
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: will have to wait. Coolly, reflect and meditate, do vicorouth
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: thought deliberation. The mind will become calm. The opponent, who
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: was very furious, will also become calm because he does
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: not get any opposition from your side. He gets astonished
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: and terrified. Also, because you stand like a sage. By
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: and by you will gain immense strength. Keep the ideal
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: before you try to get at it, though with faltering steps.
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: At first, have a clear cut mental image of a
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: hymnsa and its immeasurable advantages. After controlling the body, control
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: your speech. Make a strong determination I will not speak
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: any harsh word to anybody from today. You may fail
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: a hundred times, what does it matter. You will slowly
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: gain strength. Check the impulses of speech, observe mana, practice
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: shamah or forgiveness. Say within yourself, he is a baby soul,
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: he is ignorant, so he has done it. Let me
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: excuse him this time? What do I gain by abusing him?
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: In return? To err is human? To forgive is divine.
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: Slowly give up pride. Pride is the root cause of
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: human sufferings. Finally, go to the thoughts and check the
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: thought aught of injuring. Never think also of injuring anyone.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: One self dwells in all. All are manifestations of the
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: One God. By injuring another, you but injure your own self.
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: By serving another, you serve your own self. Love all,
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: serve all, hate, none, insult none, injure none in thought,
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: word and deed. Try to behold your own self in
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: all beings. This will promote a himsa. Benefits of the
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: practice of ahimsa. If you are established in Ahimsa, you
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: have attained all virtues. Ahimsa is the pivot. All virtues
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: revolve round Ahimsa. Just as all footprints get accommodated in
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: those of the elephant, so also do all religions and
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: ethical rules become merged in the great vow of Ahimsa.
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: Ahimsa is sole force. Hate melts in the presence of love.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: Hate dissolves in the presence of Ahimsa. There is no
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: power greater than Ahimsa. The practice of a hymset develops
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: will power to a considerable degree. The practice of Ahimsa
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: will make you fearless. He who practices Ahimsa with real faith,
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: can move the whole world, can tame wild animals, can
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: win the hearts of all, and can subdue his enemies.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: He can do and undo things. The force of a
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: hymset is infinitely more wonderful and subtle than that of
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: electricity or magnetism. The law of a hymset is as
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: much exact and precise as the law of gravitation or cohesion.
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: You must know the way to apply it intelligently with
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: scientific accuracy. If you are able to apply it with
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: exactitude and precision, you can work wonders. You can command
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: the elements and nature also the power of Ahimsa. The
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: power of Ahimse is greater than the power of the intellect.
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: It is easy to develop the intellect, but it is
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: difficult to develop the heart. The practice of a hymset
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: develops the heart in a wonderful manner. He who practices
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: a hymnset develops a strong will power. In his presence,
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: enmity ceases. In his presence, cobra and frog, cow and tiger,
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: mongoose and cobra, cat and rat, wolf and lamb will
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: all live together in terms of intimate friendship. In his presence,
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: all hostilities are given up. The term hostilities are given
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: up means that all beings, men, animals, birds, and poisonous
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: creatures would approach the practitioner without fear and would do
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: no harm to him. Their hostile nature disappears in them
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: in his presence. The rat and the cat, the snake
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: and the mongoose, and other beings that are enemies to
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: each other by nature give up their hostile feelings in
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: the presence of the Yogi, who is established in a hymsa.
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: Lions and tigers can never do any harm to such
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: a Yogi. Such a Yogi can give definite orders to
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: lions and tigers, they will obey. This is Buddhist city
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: obtainable by the practice of ahimsa. The practice of ahimsa
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: will culminate eventually in realization of unity in oneness of
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: life or advocated consciousness. Limitations to the practice of ahimsa.
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: Absolute ahimsa is impossible. It is not possible for the
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: most conscientious senyasin ascetic to practice that. You must avoid
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: killing countless creatures in walking, sitting, eating, breathing, sleeping, and drinking.
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: You cannot find a single non injury in the world.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: You have to destroy life in order to live. It
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: is physically impossible for you to obey the law of
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: non destruction of life, because the phagosytes of your blood
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: also are destroying millions of dangerous intrusive spirilla, bacteria, and germs.
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: According to one school of thought, if by the murder
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: of a dacoit thousands of lives can be saved, it
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: is not considered as ymsa Ahimsa and himsa are relative terms.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: Some say that one can defend himself with instruments and
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: use a little violence when he is in danger, and
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: this also is not considered to be HYMSA English people
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: generally shoot their dear horses and dogs when the animals
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: are in acute agony, and when there is no way
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: of relieving their sufferings. They wish that the soul should
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: be immediately freed from the physical body. Motive is the
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: chief factor. It underlies everything. A sinyacin ascetic should not
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: defend himself and use violence even when his life is
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: in jeopardy. To an ordinary man, ahimsa should be the aim.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: But he will not fall from this principle if, out
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: of sheer necessity and with no selfish aim, he has
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: recourse to himsa. Occasionally, one should not give leniency to
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: the mind in this respect. If you are lenient, the
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: mind will always take the best advantage of this and
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: will goad you to do acts of violence. Give a
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: rogan inch, he will take an l The mind at
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: once adopts this policy if you give a long rope
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: for its movement. Ahimsa is never a policy. It is
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: a sublime virtue. It is the fundamental quality of seekers
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: of truth. No self realization is possible without a himsa.
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: It is through the practice of ahimsa alone that you
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: can cognize and reach the Supreme Self or Brahman. Those
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: with whom Ahimsa is a policy may fail many a time.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: They will be tempted to do violent acts. Also, on
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: the contrary, those who strictly adhere to the vow of
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: ahimsa as a sacred creed or fundamental canon of yoga
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: can never be duped into violence. A universal vow, Ahimsa
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: is a Mahaviratam or great universal vow. It should be
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: practiced by all people of all countries. It does not
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: concern the Hindus or Indians alone. Whoever wishes to realize
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: the truth. Must practice ahimsa non violence. You may encounter
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: any amount of difficulties, you may sustain any amount of losses,
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: but you must not give up the practice of ahimsa.
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: Trials and difficulties are bound to come in your way
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: to test your strength. You should stand adamant. Then alone
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: will your efforts be crowned with sanguine success. There is
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: a hidden power in a himsa which protects the practitioners.
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: The invisible hand of God gives protection. There is no fear.
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: What can pistols and swords do. Even now? There are
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: people who do not give the least pain to flies
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: or ants. They carry sugar and rice for distribution to
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: the ants in their holes. They do not use lights
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: at night for fear of killing the small insects. They
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: are very careful in walking in the streets as they
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: do not want to trample down small insects. Blessed are
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: these men. They will soon see God as they have
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: soft hearts. Bliss divine by swamp t me sivanandal to anger.
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: A Bengali used one word salah or bad mash in
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: anger against a Sikh when they were crossing the Ganga
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: in a boat. The Sikh became very furious, caught hold
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: of the neck of the Bengali and threw him into
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: the Ganga. The Bengali died. How mentally weak was the Sikh,
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: though he was physically very strong, A little sound, a
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: single word, upset his mind and threw him out of balance.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: He became a slave of anger. Anger makes everybody its
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: slave and victim. It breaks the friendship of even very
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: intimate friends. It induces wives to quarrel with their husbands
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: and makes them file suits. It excites all. It holds
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: sway more or less over the whole world and over
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: the Devadas gods. Also. Anger destroy his reason and makes
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: man do things which cannot be dreamt of. An angry
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: person can even kill the worshipful and vilify the high
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: with rude expressions. The angry man cannot decide what to
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: speak and what not to utter. There is no sin
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: that cannot be committed by him. Under the influence of anger,
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: man abuses insults and even murders his father, brother, wife,
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: guru or king. In repents afterwards. Anger is very powerful.
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: It can destroy all tapas. It subdued Dervasa, it conquered Yajnavalkia.
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: It is the enemy of peace. It is the foe
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: of knowledge. It makes the jeeva senseless. It makes him
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: do all at harmas it makes him perfectly blind. It
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: makes him its slave. A sign of weakness, Anger is
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: a strong emotion excited by a real or a fancied injury,
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: and involving a desire for retaliation. Anger arises from an
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: idea of evil having been inflicted or threatened. Anger resides
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: in the astral body, but it percolates into the physical body,
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: just as water percolates through the pores to the outer
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: surface of an earthen pot. The blood boils, the eyes
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: are bloodshot. There is great heat in the body. Limbs tremble,
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: lips quiver, fists are clenched, and the man stammers and
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: fumbles for wards in great fury. The fire you kindle
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: for your enemy burns yourself. Anger acts as a boomerang
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: because it injures the man who becomes angry. It comes
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: back to the angry man and does harm to him.
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: Anger is a sign of mental weakness. It always begins
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: in folly or weakness, and ends in repentance or remorse.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: If you control anger, you will have limitless energy in
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: your reserve. Anger when controlled will be transmuted into a
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: spiritual power which can move the whole world. How anger
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: is caused? It was our Yuna who asks Sri Krishna,
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: But what impels man to commit sin? O Krishna in
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: spite of himself, and driven as it were, by force,
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: The blessed Lord said, it is desire. It is wrath
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: which springs from passion. Know that it is our enemy here,
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: a monster of greed and sin. The cause of sin
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: or wrong action in this world is desire. Anger is
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: only a modification or form of desire. Anger is desire itself.
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: You think of objects of senses. Attachment to these objects
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: develops from attachment. Desire is born when a desire arises,
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: It generates rajas and urges the man to work in
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: order to possess the object of desire. When the desire
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: is not gratified, and when someone stands in the way
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: of its fulfillment, the man becomes angry. The desire gets
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: transformed into anger. Just as milk is changed into curd,
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: so also desire becomes changed into anger. The root cause
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: of anger is ignorance and egoism. Anger arises when one
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: is insulted, abused, criticized when his defects are pointed out.
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: Anger comes when someone stands in the way of gratifying
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: one's desire. Anger manifests from loving one's own opinion, from
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: desiring to be honored, from imagining that one is wiser than,
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: in superior to all others. Anger arises in him who
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: thinks of his enemy. Even if you have forgotten the
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: feeling of annoyance, it lurks in the mind in a
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: dormant form. The effect is there for some time. If
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: you renew a number of times the same kind of
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: thought of jealousy, envy, or hatred about the same person,
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: the effect lasts longer. Repetition of angry feeling intensifies hatred.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: Mere ill feeling develops into intense malice by repetition of
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: anger too much. Loss of seamen is the chief cause
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: of irritability and anger. A passionate man is more angry
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: than others. A man who has wasted his seminal energy
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: becomes irritated soon for little things. Even a Brahmikari celibate
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: who has preserved his various seminal energy always keeps a
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: balanced mind. He has a cool brain at all times.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: Passion is the root and anger the stem. You will
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: have to destroy the root passion first, then the stem.
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: Anger will die by itself. Forms of anger, irritation, frowning, resentment, indignation, rage, fury,
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: wrath are all varieties of anger, classified according to the
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: degree of intensity. Anger is a sudden sentiment of displeasure.
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: It is sharp, sudden, and brief. Resentment is persistent. It
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: is continued anger. It is the bitter brooding over injuries.
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: Wrath is a heightened sentiment of anger. Age drives one
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: beyond the bounds of prudence or discretion. Fury is stronger
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: still and sweeps one away into uncontrollable violence. Irritability is
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: a mild form, a subtle form of anger. Still subtler
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: is displeasure. It is pride mixed with anger. With a
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: sharp word or a grunt, you dismiss the nuisance. These
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: are all forms of anger, anger, and righteous indignation. Anger
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: is personal and usually selfish. It is aroused by real
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: or supposed wrong to oneself. Indignation is impersonal and unselfish
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: displeasure at unworthy acts. Pure indignation is not followed by
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: regret and needs no repentance. It is also more self
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: controlled than anger. Anger is commonly a sin. Indignation is
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: often a duty. We speak of righteous indignation. If a
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: man wants to correct another man and manifests slight anger
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: unselfishly as a force to check and improve him, then
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: it is called righteous indignation or spiritual anger. Suppose a
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: man molests a woman and tries to outrage her modesty,
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: and a bystander becomes angry with the criminal, it is
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: called righteous indignation or noble anger. This is not bad.
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: Only when the anger is the outcome of greed, of
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: selfish motives, it is bad. Sometimes a religious teacher has
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: to manifest a little anger outwardly to correct his disciples.
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: This is not bad. He has to do it, but
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: he should be cool within and hot and impetuous without.
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: He should not allow the anger to take deep root
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: in his antakeerine for a long time. It should pass
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: off the next moment, even as a wave subsides in
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: the sea. A good man's anger lasts for a second,
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: a middling man's for three hours, a base man's for
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: a day and a night, and a great sinner's until death.
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: Free affair of anger anger spoils the brain nervous system
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: and blood. When a wave of anger arises in the mind,
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: prana begins to vibrate rapidly. You are agitated and excited
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: blood becomes hot. Many poisonous ingredients are formed in the blood.
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: When the blood is agitated, the semen also is affected.
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: Even three minutes of violent hot temper may produce such
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: deleterious effects in the nervous system that it will take
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: weeks or months for repair of the injury. In the
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: light of modern psychology, rheumatism, heart disease, and nervous disease
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: are all due to anger. Once a child sucked the
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: breasts of his mother when she was in a fit
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: of violent fury, and died immediately on account of poisoning
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: by virulent chemical products that were thrown into the blood
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: of the mother when she was in great excitement. Many
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: such cases have been recorded. Such are the disastrous effects
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: of anger. When anger is on the throne, reason takes
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: to its heels. He who is influenced by anger is
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: like one intoxicated with a strong liquor. He loses his memory,
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: His understanding becomes clouded, and his intellect gets perverted. Anger
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: clouds understanding when the mind is violently agitated. You cannot
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: understand a passage of a book clearly. You cannot think
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: properly and clearly. You cannot write a letter with a
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: cool mind. When the lamp is flickering through wind, you
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: do not see the objects clearly. Even so, when the
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: intellect is flickering or agitated by anger, chaos arises in
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: the intellect, and you are not able to see and
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: understand things properly. All evil qualities and actions proceed from anger.
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: If you can eradicate anger, all bad qualities will die
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: by themselves. Anger begets injustice, rashness, persecution, jealousy, taking possession
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: of others property, killing, harsh words, and cruelty. An angry
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: man loses his normal consciousness for the time being. He
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: falls a prey to anger. A man who is a
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: slave to anger may have washed himself well, anointed himself well,
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: dressed his hair, and put on white garments, yet he
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: is ugly being overcome by anger. There are symptoms on
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: the face to indicate the presence of anger in the mind.
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: If you have an easily irritable mind, you will not
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: be able to do your daily duties and business in
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: an efficient manner. If you get anger, you will lose
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: the battle of life. Methods to control anger. Anger is
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: a manifestation of sacty power. It is very difficult to
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: fight against it directly. First, try to reduce its force
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: or vaga, its frequency and duration. Endeavor to attenuate or
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: thin out this formidable modification or fritty. Do not allow
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: it to assume the form of a big wave in
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: the surface of the conscious mind. Nip it in the
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: bud when it is in the form of irritability in
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: the subconscious mind. Divert the mind. Now entertain divine thoughts.
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: Do rigorous jop a meditative repetition of a mantra or
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: curtain singing. Repeat some prayers of the bag of ad Gita,
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: the Ramayana, or the Upanishads. Develop gradually the opposite positive
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: divine virtues, such as patience, love, and forgiveness. The anger
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: will gradually die by itself. Food has a great deal
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: to do with irritability. Take sapic pure food such as milk, fruits, monkey,
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: dow curd, spinach, barley, ground nuts, and buttermilk. Do not
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: take carrots, onion, garlic, cauliflower, mass or kidao and drumstick.
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: Give up hot curry and chutney, meat, alcohol and smoking,
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: smoking meat, eating and drinking of liquors make the heart
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: very irritable. Therefore they should be completely abandoned. Tobacco brings
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: diseases of the heart. It gives rise to tobacco heart,
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: which gets easily irritated. Whenever there is likelihood of a
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: burst of anger during a conversation or debate, stop your speech,
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: Do not argue, Do not enter into heated debates and discussions.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: Always try to speak sweet and soft words. The words
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: must be soft and the argument's hard. But if the
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: words are hard, it will bring discord. Speak sweetly, speak little,
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: be mild, be gentle, be soft, cultivate mildness, gentleness, and
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: softness again and again. Control anger by pure reason. Why
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: do you feel offended when a man calls you a
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: dog or a donkey? Have you developed now four legs
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: and tail like a dog? What is this abuse? Is
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: it not mere vibration in the ether. When you become
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: angry with your servant when he fails to supply your
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: usual milk on a day, raise a question within yourself,
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: why should I be a slave to milk? Then the
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: wave of anger will at once naturally subside. It will
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: not arise on other occasions. Also, if you are careful
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: and thoughtful, it takes forty muscles to frown and only
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: fifteen to smile. Why do you make the extra effort?
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: If you find it difficult to control anger? Leave the
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: place at once, take a long walk, drink cold water,
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: repeat O m Shanty one hundred and eight times. Do
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: drop a repetiaton of your Ishta mantra, or count from
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: one to thirty. The anger will subside self restraint and serenity.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: Good and bad are both in man. The human being
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: is a mixture of both. All creatures contain forces of
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: virtue and evil. It is the restraint of the evil
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: and the active exercise of the good that raises man
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: above other creatures. Anger makes the evil break out into
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: harmful action. Self restraint keeps the evil in check and
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: afford scope for the exercise of virtues. Thus, when anger
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: is controlled, evil is controlled, good prevails. Anger is the
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: outlet or channel through which emerge harshness, cruelty, pain and harm, vengeance, violence, war,
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: and destruction. When anger is overcome, your understanding becomes clear
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: and discrimination is active. You are enabled to choose between
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: right and wrong. You proceed without confusion upon the straight,
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: narrow path of moral rectitude. Do not cause pain or
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: suffering to any living being from greed, selfishness, irritability, or annoyance.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: Give up anger, or give up the spirit of fighting.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: Try your level best to keep a serene mind. Always
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: be serene and tranquil under all circumstances. The divine light
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: will descend on a calm mind. Only an aspirant with
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: a calm mind only can enter into deep meditation and
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: Nervikalpa samadhi. He only can practice Nishkama Karma yoga. Cultivate
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: this virtue serenity again and again through constant and strenuous endeavor.
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: Serenity is like a rock. Waves of irritation may dash
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: on it, but cannot affect it. Meditate daily on the
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: ever tranquil Atman or the eternal which is unchanging. You
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: will attain this sublime virtue gradually. It is easy to
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: do evil for evil, to do good for good, but
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: it is difficult and sublime to do good for evil.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: The downward path to evil is very easy, but the
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: upward path to good is very difficult, thorny and precipitous
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: Those who are endowed with strength and wisdom in order
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: to do good for evil are indeed blessed people. They
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: are veritable gods on earth. Bliss Divine by Swami sivanandal Hiaria.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: Bramacaria is a divine word. It is the sum and
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: substance of yoga. Bramycaria is the acra or conduct by
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: which you attain or reach Brahman. It is life in
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: the absolute. It is movement towards God or Ottman. Bramacaria
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 1: is purity in thought, word and deed. It is celibacy
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: and continance. Bramacaria is not mere bachelorhood. Strict abstinence is
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: not merely from sexual intercourse, but also from autoerotic manifestations,
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: from masturbation, from homosexual acts, and from all perverse sexual practices.
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: It must further involve a permanent abstention from indulgence in
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: erotic imagination and voluptuous reverie. In a narrow sense, Bramacaria
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: is celibacy. In a broad sense, it is absolute control
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: of all senses. The door of nirvana or perfection is complete. Bramacharia.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: Brahmakaria is to the yogi what electricity is to an
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: electric bulb. Without brahmakaria, no spiritual progress is possible. There
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: cannot be any language without vowels. You cannot draw a
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: picture without a canvas. So also you cannot have health
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: and spiritual life without brahmakaria. A true Brahmakari will not
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: feel any difference in touching a woman, a piece of paper,
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: a log of wood, or a piece of stone. A
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: true Brahmakari only can cultivate baghti. A true Brahmakari only
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: can practice yoga. A true Brahmakari only can acquire jnana knowledge.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: Brahmakaria is meant for both men and women. Bishma, Hanuman, Lakshmana, Mirabai,
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: Sobah and Gargi were all bramakarans the vital energy. One
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: of the students of Danvanturi approached his teacher after finishing
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: his full course of Aerveda and asked, him, Oh, bugvan Kai,
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: let me know the secret of health now, dun Ventory replied,
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: This seminal energy is verily otman. The secret of health
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: lies in the preservation of this vital force. He who
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: wastes this energy cannot have physical, mental, moral and spiritual development.
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: Viya seminal energy is God in motion. Viya is dynamic will.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: Viya is sole force. Viya seminal energy is the essence
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: of life, thought, intelligence, and consciousness. The vital energy Viya,
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 1: which supports your life, which is the prana of pranas,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: which shines in your sparkling eyes, which beams in your
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: shining checks, is a great treasure for you. It is
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: the quintessence of blood from food. Kyle is manufactured. Out
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: of kyle comes blood. Out of blood comes flesh. Out
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: of flesh comes fat. Out of fat, comes marrow. Out
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: of marrow comes semen. Semen is the last as it
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: is the essence of essences. Just as sugar is all
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: pervading in the sugar cane, butter in milk, so also
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: semen is pervading the whole body. It exists in a
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: subtle form throughout the body. It is withdrawn and elaborated
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: into gross form in the sexual organs under the influence
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: of the sexual will and sexual excitement, sexual excitement and
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: its evil consequences. When a man is excited by passion,
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: the prana is set in motion. The vital air or
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: prana moves the internal sap or seamen. The semen is
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: put into motion, it falls downwards, just as the clouds
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: burst into the rain water, just as the fruits, flowers,
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: and leaves of the tree dropped down by the force
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: of the blowing winds. If the verious seminal energy is lost,
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: Prana gets unsteady, Prana is agitated. Man becomes nervous. Then
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: the mind also cannot work proper. The man becomes fickle minded.
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: There is mental weakness, bad memory, premature old age, impotence,
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: Various sorts of eye diseases, and various nervous diseases are
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: attributable to the heavy loss of this vital fluid. When
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: once lost, various seminal energy can never never be recouped
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: in your lifetime by your taking any amount of batom,
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: nerving tonics, milk, cream, cheese, cayavanaprash or makaravja. Indulgence in
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: the sexual act is exhausting to the female system and
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: a drain upon the vitality. As in man, the nervous
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: strain it imposes is very great. Indeed, their systems, being
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: more delicate and high strong, females are often more affected
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: than men. Need for brahmicharia. How can you expect to
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: be strong and healthy If the energy that is acquired
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: through various means with great difficulty is wasted daily, it
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: is impossible to be strong and healthy and less Males
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: and females, boys and girls try their level best to
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: keep up bramacaria, or the vow of celibacy. Pure air,
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: pure water, wholesome food, physical exercise, outdoor games like tennis
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: all contribute to the maintenance of good health, strength, and
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: a high standard of vigor and vitality. There are, indeed
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: many ways to gain health and strength. These ways are
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: doubtless indispensably requisite, but bramacaria is the most important of all.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: It is the only specific that keeps up the true
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: manliness benefits of the practice of brahmacharia. The practice of
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: celibacy is not attended with any danger or disease or
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 1: undesirable results, such as the various sorts of complex wrongly
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: attributed by the Western psychologists. They have no practical knowledge
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: of the subject on hand. They have a wrong and
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: ill founded imagination that the unratified sex energy assumes the
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: various forms of complex, such as touch phobia. The complex
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: is due to some other causes. It is a morbid
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: state of mind due to excessive jealousy, hatred, anger, worry,
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: and depression brought about by various causes. On the contrary,
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: even a little of self restraint or a little practice
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: of continence is an ideal pick me up. It gives
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 1: inner strength and peace of mind. It invigorates the mind
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: and nerves. It helps to conserve physical and mental energy.
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: It augments memory, will, force, and brain power. It bestows
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: tremendous strength, vigor, and vitality. It renovates the system or constitution,
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: rebuilds the cells and tissues, energizes digestion, and gives power
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 1: to face the difficulties in the daily battle of life.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: One who has perfect control over sexual energy attains powers
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: unobtainable by any other means. If a man leads a
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: life of celibacy, even in his household life, and has
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: copulation occasionally for the sake of progeny, only he can
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: bring forth healthy, intelligent, strong, beautiful, self sacrificing suns. The
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: ascetics and saviors of ancient India, when married, used to
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: follow this excellent rule very carefully for this purpose, and
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: also used to teach by example and practice how to
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: lead a life of a bromacharn even as a householder.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: The importance of right diet. Diet plays a prominent part
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: in keeping up bramycaria. There are different compartments in the brain,
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: and each food produces its own effect on each compartment
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: and on the general system. A confection of sparrow produces
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: aphrodisiac effect. It directly stimulates the reproductive organs. Garlic, onions, meat,
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: fish and eggs stimulate the passion. Give proper attention to food,
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: Have moderation in diet. Take safic pure food such as milk, fruits,
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: and wheat. Occasional fasting checks passion, calms the emotions, controls
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: the indreas and helps bramcaria. Theory and practice. People talk
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: of bramycaria, but practical men are rare. Indeed, a life
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: of countenance is really beset with difficulties. It is easy
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: to tame a tiger, or a lion or an elephant.
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: It is easy to play with a cobra. It is
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: easy to walk over the fire. It is easy to
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: approove the Himalayas. It is easy to get victory in
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 1: the battlefield, but it is difficult to eradicate lust. You
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: need not despair even a bit. However, have faith in God,
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: in his name and in his grace. You are bound
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: to succeed. If you have faith in Him. Mere human
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: effort alone will not suffice. The divine grace is needed.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: Lust cannot be completely uprooted from the mind except by
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: the grace of the Lord. God helps those who help themselves.
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 1: Lack of spiritual soden our realization is the main cause
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: for all sexual attractions. Mere theoretical abstention from sensuality will
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: not bring you good results. You must mercilessly cut off
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: all formalities in social life and lead a pious life.
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 1: Leniency to internal lower tendencies will land you in the
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: region of suffering. Excuse will not be of use in
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 1: this respect. You must be sincere in your purpose for
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 1: the sublime life of spirituality. Half heartedness will leave you
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: in your old state of misery. How to get established
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: in celibacy, Do not think of women. Do not look
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: at women. Looking at the opposite sex will create a
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: desire to talk to them. Talking will create a desire
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 1: to touch them. Eventually, you will have an impure mind
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 1: and will fall a victim. Therefore, never look at the
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: opposite sex. Never talk intimately with them. Do not be
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: familiar with them. Lustful look, lustful thinking, wet dreams are
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: all failures or breaks in celibacy. Be chased in your look,
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: be chased in your thought, be chased in your talk.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: See Mother in all women. Cultivate sublime, divine thoughts, repeat
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: the Lord's name, and meditate regularly. You will be established
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: in celibacy. There are four processes in the practice of Brahmacharia. First,
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 1: control the sex impulse and sex desire. Then practice conservation
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 1: of sex energy. Shut out all holes through which energy leaks.
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: Then divert the conserved energy into the proper spiritual channels
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: through meditative repetition of a mantra, devotional singing, selfless service,
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 1: priniam of breath control, study vigilance, self analysis, introspection, and
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: vicara thought deliberation. Then have conversion or sublimation of the
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: sex energy. Let it be converted into Adja's vital energy
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: or Brahmin power through constant meditation or brahmachintana. Danger of reaction.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: You will have to be very careful of reaction. The
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: senses that are put under restraint for some months or
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 1: for one or two years, become rebellious. If you are
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: not always vigilant and careful, they revolt and drag you
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 1: out when opportunities arise. Some people who observe bramacheria for
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: one or two years become more passionate and waste the
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: energy considerably. In the end, some become incorrigible moral rex Also,
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 1: you must not labor under the delusion that you have
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 1: eradicated lust completely by adjusting the diet a bit, by
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: practicing prniama breath control, and by doing a little meditative
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: repetition of a mantra, and that you have nothing more
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: to do. Temptation or mara may overcome you at any moment.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 1: Eternal vigilance and rigorous sodna realization are very essential. You
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: may be able to stop copulation for months and years,
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: but there should not be any sexual craving or attraction
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: for ladies. Evil thoughts also should not arise when you
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: look at a lady when you are in the company
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: of ladies. The state of mental bramicharia must be kept
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: up even amidst temptations and sickness. Then only you are safe.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: The senses begin to revolt during times of ailment and
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: also when you come in contact with sense objects. You
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 1: cannot attain perfect bramacharia by limited effort. Just as a
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 1: machine gun is necessary to kill a powerful enemy, so
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: also constant, rigorous and powerful sodnar realization is necessary to
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: annihilate this powerful enemy. Lust. You must not be puffed
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: up with pride for your little achievement in celibacy. If
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 1: you are put to test, you will hopelessly fail. You
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: must be ever conscious of your shortcomings, and you must
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 1: constantly strive to get rid of them. The highest effort
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: is necessary, then only you will have sanguine success in
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: this direction. Bliss Divine by Swami Sivanandah. Thought. Thought is
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 1: a vital living force, the most vital, subtle, and irresistible
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: force that exists in the universe. Thought is a great force.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: Thought is a dynamic force. It is caused by the
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: vibrations of psychic prana or such maprana on the mental substance.
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: It is a force like gravitation, cohesion, or repulsion. You
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 1: are surrounded by an ocean of thought. You are floating
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 1: in the ocean of thought. You are absorbing certain thoughts
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: and repelling some. In the thought world. The thought world
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: is relatively more real than this physical universe. Thoughts are
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: living things. Every change in thought is accompanied by vibration
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: of its mental matter. Every thought has a certain name
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 1: and a certain form. M is the grosser and name
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: the finer state of a single manifestating power called thought.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 1: Thought is subtle matter. Thought is subtle matter. Thought is
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: as much a thing as the yonder piece of stone.
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: Thought has form, size, shape, color, quality, substance, power, and weight.
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: A spiritual thought has yellow color. A thought charged with
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 1: anger and hatred is of a dark red color. A
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 1: selfish thought has a brown color, and so on. You
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: may die, but your thoughts can never die. The powerful
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 1: thoughts of great sages and enlightened rishies of your are
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: still in the Acacic records. Yogans who have clairvoyant vision
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 1: can perceive those thought images. They can read them. Thought
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 1: is supplied to us by food. If the food is pure,
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: thought also becomes pure. He who has pure thoughts speaks
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: very powerfully and produces a deep impression on the minds
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: of the hearers. He influences thousands of persons through his
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: pure thoughts. A pure thought is sharper than the edge
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 1: of a razor. Entertain always pure sublime thoughts. Thought builds character.
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 1: Every thought of yours has literal value to you in
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: every possible way. The strength of your body, the strength
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: of your mind, your success in life, and the pleasures
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 1: you give to others by your company all depend on
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: the nature and quality of your thoughts. You must know
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: thought culture thought. Culture is an exact science. Man is
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: created by thought. What a man thinks upon that, he becomes.
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 1: Think you are strong strong. You become think you are weak. Weak.
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: You become think you are a fool fool. You become
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 1: think you are God, God. You become a man forms
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: his own character, becoming that which he thinks. If you
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: meditate on courage, ye shall work courage into your character,
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: so with purity, patience, unselfishness, and self control. If you
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: think nobly, ye shall gradually make for yourself a noble character.
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: But if you think basely, a base character will be formed.
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: You can build your character as surely as a mason
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: can build a wall. Working with and through the law.
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 1: The mind has got a drawing power. You are continually
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: attracting towards you from both the scene and the unseen
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: side of life. Forces thoughts, influences, and conditions most akin
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 1: to those of your own. Thoughts and lines. Carry any
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: kind of thought you please about with you, and so
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: long as you retain it, no matter how you roam
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: over land or see, you will unceasingly attract to yourself,
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: knowingly or inadvertently, exactly and only what corresponds to your
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 1: own dominant quality of thought. The progeny of thoughts. A
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: good thought is thrice blessed. First, it benefits the thinker
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: by improving his mental body. Secondly, it benefits the person
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: about whom it is entertained. Lastly, it benefits all mankind
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: by improving the general mental atmosphere. An evil thought, on
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 1: the contrary, is thrice cursed. First it harms the thinker
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: by doing injury to his mental body. Secondly, it harms
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: the person who is its object. Lastly, it harms all
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 1: mankind by vitiating the whole mental atmosphere. Thoughts are your own.
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 1: Real children, Be careful of your progeny of thoughts. A
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: good son brings happiness, name, and fame to the father.
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: An evil son brings infamy discredit to his father. Even so,
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: a noble thought will bring happiness and joy to you.
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 1: An evil thought will bring misery and trouble to you.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: Just as you rear up your children with great care,
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: so also you will have to rear up good, sublime
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 1: thoughts with great care. Thoughts lead to action. Evil thoughts
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: produce evil actions. Good thoughts generate good actions. Thoughts are
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: the sources of all actions. Thought is the real karma.
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: Thinking is the real action. If you can root out
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: all evil thoughts in the beginning, you will not do
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 1: any evil action. If you can nip them in the bud,
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: you will be free from the miseries and tribulations of
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: this world. Watch your thoughts with vigilance and introspection eradication
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: of evil thoughts. At first, an evil thought enters the mind.
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: Then you entertain a strong imagination. You take delight in
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: dwelling on that evil thought. You give consent to its
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 1: stay in the mind. Gradually, the evil thought, when it
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 1: is not resisted, takes a strong hold in your mind.
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 1: Then it becomes very difficult to drive it off. Thoughts
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: gain strength by repetition if you entertain an evil thought
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: or good thought. Once this evil thought or good thought
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 1: has a tendency to recur again. Similar thoughts crowd together,
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: just as birds of the same feather flock together. If
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: you entertain one evil thought, all sorts of evil thoughts
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 1: join together and pull you down. If you entertain any
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 1: good thought, all good thoughts join together and raise you up.
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 1: Control your thoughts. Just as you retain only the good
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 1: fruits from the basket and discard the bad ones, so
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 1: also keep good thoughts in your mind and reject the
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 1: evil ones. Wipe out lust, greed, and egoism. Entertain only
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 1: pure holy thoughts. Though this is a difficult task, you
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 1: will have to practice this no pains, no gains. Just
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 1: as you close your door or gait when a dog
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: or an ass tries to come in, so also close
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 1: your mind before any evil thought can enter and produce
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 1: an impression on your physical brain. You will become wise
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: soon and attain eternal in at peace and bliss. Thoughts
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 1: are like the waves of the ocean. They are countless.
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 1: You may become desperate in the beginning. Some thoughts will subside,
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 1: while some other thoughts will gush out like a stream.
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 1: The same old thoughts that were once suppressed may again
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 1: show their faces after some time. Never become despondent. At
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 1: any stage of practice. Inner spiritual strength will gradually manifest
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: in you. You can feel this, you are bound to succeed.
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: In the end, All the yoguns of your had to
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: encounter the same difficulties that you are experiencing. Now fully
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: realize for yourself the grave and ruinous consequences of evil thoughts.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: This will set you on your guard when the evil
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: thoughts would come. The moment they come, exert yourself or
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: divert the mind to some other object of divine thoughts,
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: prayer or joppa, a real earnestness to drive away the
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: evil thoughts will keep you on the alert. So much so,
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 1: but even if they appear in dream, you will at
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 1: once wake up. Keep the mind fully occupied, then evil
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 1: thoughts will not enter. An idle brain is the devil's workshop.
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 1: Watch the mind every minute. Always engage yourself in some work.
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: Avoid loose talk and gossip. Fill the mind with sublime thoughts,
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 1: such as those contained in the Gidah, the Upanishads, the
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 1: Yoga Vasishta conservation and utilization of thought energy. Just as
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: energy is wasted in idle talk and gossiping, so also
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 1: energy is wasted in entertaining useless thoughts. Therefore, you should
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 1: not waste even a single thought. Do not waste even
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 1: an iota of energy in useless thinking. Conserve all mental
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: energy and utilize it from meditation and helpful service to humanity.
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 1: Do not store in your brain useless information. Learn to
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 1: unmind the mind. Unlearn whatever you have learnt. They are
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: now useless for you. Then only you can fill your
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 1: mind with divine thoughts. You will gain new mental strength
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 1: as all the dissipated mental rays are collected. Now drive
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 1: away from your mind all unnecessary, useless and obnoxious thoughts.
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 1: Useless thoughts impede your spiritual growth. Obnoxious thoughts are stumbling
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 1: blocks to spiritual advancement. You are away from God. When
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 1: Vaughan entertain useless thoughts, substitute thoughts of God. Entertain only
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 1: thoughts that are helpful and useful. Useful thoughts are the
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 1: stepping stones to spiritual growth and progress. Do not allow
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 1: the mind to run into the old grooves and to
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 1: have its own ways and habits. Be on the careful watch.
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: You must eradicate through introspection all sorts of mean thoughts,
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 1: useless thoughts, unworthy thoughts, impure thoughts, all sexual thoughts, thoughts
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 1: of jealousy, hatred, and selfishness. You must annihilate all destructive
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: thoughts of disharmony and discord. You must develop good, loving,
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: sublime thoughts, divine thoughts. Every thought must be of a
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 1: constructive nature. It must be strong, positive, and definite. The
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 1: mental image must be of a clear cut and well
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 1: defined nature. You must develop right thinking. Every thought must
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 1: bring peace and solace to others. It should not bring
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 1: even the least pain and unhappiness to anyone. Then you
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 1: are a blessed soul on the earth. You are a
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 1: mighty power on the earth. You can help many, heal thousands, spiritualize,
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 1: and elevate a large number of persons, as did Jesus
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 1: and Buddha. Thought transference or telepathy. Thought is very contagious,
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 1: nay more contagious than the Spanish flu. Thought moves. It
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 1: actually leaves the brain and hovers about it enters the
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 1: brains of others. Also, the medium through which thoughts travel
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 1: from one mind to another is manas. Manas or mind
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 1: substance hills all space like ether, and it serves as
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 1: the vehicle for thoughts, as Prana is the vehicle for feelings.
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 1: Ether is the vehicle for heat, light and electricity, and
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 1: air is the vehicle for sound. Mind is all pervading
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 1: like a casa. Hence thought transference is possible. Thought transference
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 1: is telepathy. If we throw a piece of stone in
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 1: a tank or a pool of water, it will produce
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: a succession of concentric waves traveling all around from the
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 1: affected place. The light of a candle will similarly give
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 1: rise to waves of ethereal vibration traveling in all directions
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: from the candle. In the same manner, when a thought,
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 1: whether good or evil, crosses the mind of a person,
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 1: it gives rise to vibrations in the mental atmosphere, which
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 1: travel far and wide in all directions. The velocity of
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 1: thought is unimaginable. While electricity travels at the rate of
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: one eighty six zero zero zero miles per second, thoughts
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 1: travel virtually in no time, their speed being as much
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 1: faster than electricity as their vehicle. Mind is finer than ether,
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: the medium of electricity. When you send out a useful
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 1: thought to help others, it must have a definite, positive
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 1: purpose and aim. Then only it will bring out the
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 1: desired effect. The stronger the thoughts, the earlier the fructification.
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 1: Thought is focused and given a particular direction, and in
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 1: the degree that thought is thus focused and given direction,
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 1: it is effective in the work it is sent out
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 1: to accomplish. You should learn the method of sending out helping,
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 1: loving thoughts to others and the whole world at large.
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 1: You should know how to remove distraction and collect all
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 1: thoughts and send them out as a battalion of helpful
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 1: forces to do good to the suffering humanity. Clear thinking.
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 1: The common man does not know what deep thinking is.
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 1: His thoughts run riot. There is a great deal of
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 1: confusion in the mind. Sometimes his mental images are very distorted.
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 1: It is only thinkers, philosophers and yogans who have well defined,
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 1: clear cut mental images. Thinkers are very few in this world.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 1: Thinking is very shallow in the vast majority of persons.
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 1: Deep thinking needs intense sodna or practice. It takes innumerable
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 1: berths for the proper evolution of the mind. Then only
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 1: it can think deeply and properly. A man who speaks
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 1: the truth and has moral purity has always powerful thoughts.
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 1: One who has controlled anger by long practice has tremendous
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 1: thought power. The waveless wise, the fewer the thoughts, the
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 1: greater the peace, the fewer the desires, the lesser the thoughts.
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 1: Remember this always, a wealthy man who is engaged in
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 1: speculation in a big city and who has a large
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 1: number of thoughts, has a restless mind in spite of
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 1: his comforts, whereas a holy Sadu who lives in a
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 1: cave of the Himalayas and who is practicing thought control,
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 1: is very happy in spite of his poverty. Every thought
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 1: that is reduced add strength and peace to the mind.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 1: Reduction of even one thought will give mental strength and
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: peace of mind. You may not be able to feel
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 1: this in the beginning, as you do not possess a
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 1: subtle intellect, but there is a spiritual thermometer inside to
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 1: register the reduction of even a single thought. If you
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 1: reduce one thought, the mental strength that you have gained
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 1: by this reduction will help you to reduce the second
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 1: thought easily. Through constant and intense practice, you can become
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 1: waveless and thought free. The waveless Yogan helps the world
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 1: more than the man on the platform. Ordinary people can
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 1: hardly grasp this point. When you are waveless, you actually
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 1: permeate and pervade every atom of the universe, purify and
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 1: elevate the whole world. The names of waveless wises such
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 1: as Jada, Barata and Vamadeva are even now remembered. They
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 1: never built ashrums, they never lectured, they never published books,
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 1: they never made disciples. Yet what a tremendous influence these
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 1: waveless wises had produced on the minds of the people.
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 1: Glory to such waveless wises. Bliss divine by Swami Sivanandal.
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 1: Time the serpent has the frog in its mouth, only
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 1: the head of the frog is projecting outside. It will
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 1: be devoured within a few minutes. But the poor frog
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 1: projects its tongue outside to catch one or two insects.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 1: Even so, o ignorant man, you are already in the
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: mouth of kala or time. You will be nowhere in
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 1: a few minutes. Yet you think of the sensual obiex
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 1: again and again. You have become a slave of moha
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 1: or delusion and attachment. You do not realize the value
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 1: of time. When one is in the dying condition, you
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: will ask the doctor who is standing by the side
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 1: of the patient, My dear doctor, just do something for
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 1: this patient. Give a powerful injection. Let the breath continue
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 1: for some hours at least. My brother is coming from
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 1: Bombay to see the patient. The doctor will give a reply,
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 1: My dear friend, I cannot do anything. The case is
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 1: perfectly hopeless. He will pass away within five minutes. Now
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 1: you will realize the value of time. You will repent
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 1: for the days, months, and years you have wasted in
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 1: idle gossiping, in sensual pleasures. Time and the timeless eternity.
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 1: Time is more precious than money. Time is more precious
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 1: than the most valuable thing in the world. It is
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 1: the richest treasure. Time is the soul of the world.
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 1: Time is life. Utilize time profitably in spiritual pursuits, waste
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 1: not even a second. Time is formless, but it devours everything.
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 1: Time digests everything. Time does not spare anybody. Time is relentless.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: Time is lord Yama. Time is calla Time is the
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 1: rat that cuts off the thread of life in this universe.
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 1: There is nothing in this world which the all devouring
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 1: Time will spare. It obliterates even what apparently looks to
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 1: be very enduring. Time spares not even the greatest person.
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 1: For a moment. Time pervades and controls all things. Time
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 1: dances about with a long chain of the bones of
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 1: the dead hanging from its neck. To its feet. It
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 1: assumes the formidable form of a burning fire during the
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 1: dissolution and reduces the whole world to ashes and can
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 1: stop its course. Only the sages, sears, and saints of
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 1: God realization have defied its might. The eternal is timeless.
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 1: Brahman transcends time. Brahman is eternal. It is a timeless reality.
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 1: Kings and lords will pass away. This world will pass
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 1: away with all its occupants. The sun, moon and stars
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 1: will pass away. All joys and sorrows will pass away, wife, children, wealth,
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 1: property will pass away. The five elements, the Earth, and
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 1: heaven will pass away. Only Brahman, the pure sat Chitinanda, truth, consciousness, bliss,
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: will shine eternally, attain Brahmen and conquer time, Transcend time
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 1: and become one with the eternity. The fleeting nature of
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 1: sensual life. This world is a play of colors and sounds.
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 1: This sense universe is a play of nerves. It is
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 1: a false show kept up by the jugglery of Maya
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: mind and senses. You enjoy the sensual pleasure for a
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 1: period of twenty years, when the senses are young and strong.
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 1: What is this short evanescent period of twenty years in eternity.
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 1: What is this despicable, jarring, monotonous, sensual life when compared
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 1: with the eternal and peaceful life in the immortal self? Within?
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 1: Being much hemmed in on all sides and whirling in
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 1: different conditions in this ever fluctuating world, you are ever
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 1: whirling with delusion and afflicted with pains. Like dust of
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 1: sand floating in the midst of a large stone. Now
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 1: reflecting upon time, which is eternal in its true nature,
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 1: you cannot but term the hundred years of your life
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 1: as a moment while being so, How is it that
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 1: you estimate your life so greatly and fall into all
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: sorts of despondencies through the insatiable desires? Who is there
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 1: so debased in life as you, who are spoiled through
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 1: the gross mind fly on your uneven life which cannot
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 1: be considered as of any moment. You have spent eight
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 1: hours in sleep and the rest of the day in iyace, gossiping,
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 1: telling lies, deceiving others, in selfish activities, in amassing wealth.
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: How can you expect spiritual goods? How can you expect
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 1: immortality and peace? If you do not spend even half
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 1: an hour in the service of the Lord, in singing
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 1: his names and in divine contemplation. You may waste two
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 1: hours in tying your turban. You may waste much time
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 1: in self shaving, in combing the hair. But if a
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 1: devotee calls you to attend the sancred in singing, you
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 1: will say, Babuji, I have no time at all. I
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 1: have to go to the doctor to get medicine. I
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 1: must go to the market for shopping, and you will
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 1: give a thousand and one lame excuses. There are people
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 1: who waste days and nights in idle talk, in playing card,
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 1: in chess. There are people who waste weeks in drinking
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 1: and chit chatting. There are people who waste months in
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 1: the company of sisters of evil repute and in gambling.
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 1: There are people who waste years and years in wandering,
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 1: idle gossiping, attending cinemas, smoking, chewing beetles, and various other
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 1: licentious deeds. You do not know even a single sloca
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 1: of the Gida or the Upanishads. You do not know
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 1: how to sit on padmesana. You do not know the
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 1: efficacy of mantra curtain. You do not know anything about
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 1: self analysis, mind control, self restraint, concentration, and introspection. You
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 1: have lived in vain. You have wasted this precious life. Hotels, restaurants,
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 1: cinema houses are your abodes of immortality or vikanthadama. Really,
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 1: you are leading a miserable life. If you can talk
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 1: something on dry politics, you think you are a great
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 1: hero the purpose of human life? What a great pity
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: man has come here with a definite purpose. Life is
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 1: not meant for eating, drinking, dressing, and procreating. There is
• 1:38:59
  Speaker 1: something grand and sublime behind. There is an eternal life
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 1: of bliss beyond. Every second must be well utilized for
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 1: the achievement of this goal of life. Half of your
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 1: life is spent in sleep. A great portion goes away
• 1:39:15
  Speaker 1: in sickness. Some portion is spent in eating, drinking and talking.
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 1: You are enveloped in ignorance and play. In childhood, you
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 1: are caught up in a net of women. In adolescence.
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 1: In old age, you pine under anxiety and the burden
• 1:39:31
  Speaker 1: of family affairs. When will you, my dear friends, find
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 1: time in doing virtuous deeds and worship of God? Be serious,
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 1: think and reflect now. Life is short, time is fleeting.
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 1: Obstacles are many. This not of avidia, ignorance, and drink
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 1: in nervanic bliss. Life is short, time is fleeting. The
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 1: world is full of miseries. Yourself diligently to yogic sodonaw.
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 1: The world is a mela festival for two days. This
• 1:40:04
  Speaker 1: life is a bubble for two seconds. You came alone.
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 1: You will go alone. No one will follow you. You
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 1: came naked, You will go naked. No one will follow you.
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 1: Do budgeon singing, do curtain reciting, for this alone will
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 1: follow you. People have risen to greatness and prominence by
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 1: utilizing every second profitably. Keep daily diary, reduce your sleep,
• 1:40:34
  Speaker 1: give up all the idle, talk enough enough, observe mauna,
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 1: Understand the value of time. Draw up a daily routine
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 1: and stick to it tenaciously, grow, evolve, expand get success
• 1:40:52
  Speaker 1: in life. Realize God. Shut yourself in a room, reflect, meditate,
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 1: unfold the hidden spiritual consciousness. Days, months, and years are
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 1: rolling away. Hairs have become gray, teeth have fallen. You
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 1: are attached to perishable objects through moha delusion. Tell me, friends,
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 1: how long will you be slaves to the fleeting things
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 1: of the world? How long are you going to repeat
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 1: the same sensual enjoyments. How long do you wish to
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 1: worship Mammon and woman? When will you find time to
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 1: meditate on the Lord and to do virtuous deeds? Think
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 1: and reflect uncertainty of earthly life. The leaves of life
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 1: are falling off, youth is fading, the days are rolling
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 1: on time. The destroyer lays his icy hands on the
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 1: whole world. Existence in this world is as momentary as
• 1:41:52
  Speaker 1: a bubble or lightning. A doctor speaks on the telephone
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 1: and ascends the staircase to take his breakfast and is
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 1: found dead on the staircase itself on account of cardiac failure.
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 1: A princess drives a car along with her husband and
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 1: loses her life on the way through some accident. A
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 1: zamindar comes outside to sit on the chair for getting
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 1: good breeze at night. A cobra bites him and he
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 1: passes away. Such is the uncertainty or evanescent nature of
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 1: life here, and yet man foolishly wastes his time. A
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 1: man loses his father. On the following day, he loses
• 1:42:29
  Speaker 1: his son also, Yet he is foolish enough to think
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 1: that he will live forever. When the persons who came
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 1: before and after him have died and postponed sodnaw. How
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 1: to utilize time. Mister Rockefeller and mister Austen know the
• 1:42:43
  Speaker 1: value of time. They get millions of pounds as interest
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 1: every day. A second is most precious for them. In
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 1: an hour they earn a lot. Time is all money.
• 1:42:56
  Speaker 1: Just as worldly people who are engaged in business are
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 1: very careful about their time, so also spiritual aspirans are
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 1: very careful about their time, and they use it in
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 1: contemplation of God. They will not speak even a single
• 1:43:10
  Speaker 1: word unnecessarily. They want to spend every second in the
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 1: service of God. That is the reason why they observe
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 1: Mana and hide themselves in the Himalayan caves. If you
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 1: take care of the seconds, the hours will take care
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 1: of themselves. Time is indeed most precious. It can never
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 1: come back. It is rolling on with a tremendous speed.
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 1: When the bells ring, remember you are approaching death. When
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 1: the clock strikes, bear in mind that one hour is
• 1:43:41
  Speaker 1: cut off from the span of your life. You must
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 1: tremble with fear and say death is drawing near. I
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 1: am wasting my time. When shall I realize the goal
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 1: of life? When shall I have Darsana of my ish
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 1: to Devada Sri Krishna. When shall I meet him? When
• 1:43:59
  Speaker 1: shall shall I be free from this will? Of some sorrow?
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 1: Your birthday reminds you that your life is shortened by
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 1: a year. On this day, make a firm resolve to
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 1: make your future life more fruitful and useful. Do not
• 1:44:13
  Speaker 1: postpone doing good deeds, for there is no certainty of life.
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 1: What you propose to do tomorrow, do that today. What
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 1: you propose to do today, do this very instant. Do
• 1:44:25
  Speaker 1: in the daytime that by which you will live happily
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 1: in the night. Do in the early part of your
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 1: life that by which you will live happily in old age,
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 1: Do all throughout your life that by which you will
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 1: live happily after death. Oh man, sit down, before retiring
• 1:44:41
  Speaker 1: to bed, and count the acts that you have done.
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 1: If you have wiped out the tears of even one
• 1:44:47
  Speaker 1: man by a single word of comfort and cheer, by
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 1: a single good deed, then you may count that day
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 1: well spent. You have done an act that is pleasing
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 1: to the Lord. But if you have not done any
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 1: act that has brought solace to any man, if you
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 1: have not spoken one word that e is the heart
• 1:45:04
  Speaker 1: of a man in agony. You have lived in vain
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 1: on that day, then count you have wasted that day.
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 1: Life is a link in the chain of time. If
• 1:45:14
  Speaker 1: you waste time, you waste life. Know the value of time.
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 1: You cannot salvage a second spent in worthless ways. Time
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 1: is most precious trifle not with time. Make the utmost
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 1: use of it. Utilize every second in spiritual pursuits and service.
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 1: The nature of time, time is a mode of the mind.
• 1:45:39
  Speaker 1: It is mental creation. It depends on the nature of
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 1: the event. When your mind is deeply concentrated, a period
• 1:45:46
  Speaker 1: of two hours passes like five minutes. If the mind
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 1: is distracted and wandering, half an hour hangs on as
• 1:45:54
  Speaker 1: two hours. This is everybody's experience in dream. Also, many
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 1: events that represent a period of fifty years take place
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 1: within ten minutes. Through the play of the mind. A
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 1: long period of time is considered by it as a moment,
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 1: and vice versa. Time is but a mode of the mind.
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 1: It is colli sacti, or all destroying time. It is
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 1: also illusory. Like the objects. Time is a concept of mind.
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 1: Without mind, there is no concept of time. Annihilate the mind,
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 1: you will go beyond time, you will enter the realm
• 1:46:32
  Speaker 1: of the timeless. You will live in the eternal. In
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 1: the absolute, there is no time. Time is a measure
• 1:46:40
  Speaker 1: or duration of experiences. You sit for taking food at
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 1: one pm and get up at two pm. You have
• 1:46:47
  Speaker 1: spent one hour for taking food. There is interval between
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 1: two experiences. Then you go to bed from three p
• 1:46:55
  Speaker 1: m To four pm. This is another experience. You have
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 1: spent one hour in sleep. Where there is only one
• 1:47:03
  Speaker 1: homogeneous experience of self. How can time be there? Yesterday, today,
• 1:47:09
  Speaker 1: and tomorrow. Time is formless, but it makes an appearance
• 1:47:13
  Speaker 1: when some motion occurs in nature. The wheels of time
• 1:47:17
  Speaker 1: are mysterious. Past, present, and future are all relative. Present
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 1: becomes past, future becomes present. Present alone is real, live
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 1: always in the present. Today becomes yesterday. Yesterday is today's memory.
• 1:47:37
  Speaker 1: It is a remembrance only tomorrow is today's dream. It
• 1:47:42
  Speaker 1: is a longing. Only live in the solid present alone.
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 1: Wipe off yesterday and tomorrow. In God, there is neither
• 1:47:51
  Speaker 1: past nor future. It is all eternity. It is all
• 1:47:56
  Speaker 1: solid present alone. Present only is the solid reaction. You
• 1:48:01
  Speaker 1: cannot remedy the past. You are not sure of tomorrow.
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 1: The only best thing is to make today as useful
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 1: as can be. Yesterday is gone, forget it. Tomorrow is
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 1: not here. Worry not. Today is present, Use it well.
• 1:48:22
  Speaker 1: Today is your own. Tomorrow, perchance, may never come. Yesterday
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 1: is but a dream, Tomorrow is but a vision. Do
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 1: not worry about dead yesterday or unborn tomorrow, but concentrate
• 1:48:36
  Speaker 1: on today, the eternal present. Live well every day as
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 1: if it is the last. Every moment is vitally important.
• 1:48:44
  Speaker 1: Every day is like the turning of a new leaf,
• 1:48:47
  Speaker 1: and every year the beginning of a new hope. Do
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 1: not love leisure, Do not waste even half a second.
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 1: Be bold, plunge yourself in jop as, singing, curtain, reciting
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 1: and service of saints and the poor. Meditate, realize the
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 1: truth here and now, go beyond time and become a
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 1: caltida timeless bliss divine by Swami Sivanandah. Truth, Truth is
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 1: the seed of God. Truth is God. Truth alone triumphs
• 1:49:22
  Speaker 1: Truth is the basic law of life. Truth is the
• 1:49:26
  Speaker 1: means and the goal ultimate. Truth is the law of freedom.
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 1: Falsehood the law of slavery in death. Truth is justice,
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 1: fair play, adherence to the fundamental laws of ethics, purity,
• 1:49:40
  Speaker 1: and truth are the twin factors that unfold and awaken
• 1:49:43
  Speaker 1: the divinity that lies dormant within you and lead you
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 1: to perfection. Truthfulness is the first pillar in the temple
• 1:49:50
  Speaker 1: of God realization. Truth is the gateway to the Kingdom
• 1:49:54
  Speaker 1: of God. Truth is like a latter. It leads you
• 1:49:58
  Speaker 1: to the kingdom of immortal bliss. The all inclusive virtue
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 1: speaking truth is the most important qualification of a yogan.
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 1: Truth is the queen of virtues. Truth is the supreme virtue.
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 1: Truth constitutes the essence of the vedas. Control over passions
• 1:50:18
  Speaker 1: constitutes the essence of truth. Self denial or refraining from
• 1:50:22
  Speaker 1: the worldly enjoyments, forms the essence of self control. These
• 1:50:27
  Speaker 1: attributes are always present in a virtuous man. Truth is righteousness,
• 1:50:33
  Speaker 1: Righteousness is light, and light is bliss. A hymns non violence, Brahmacharia, purity, justice, harmony, forgiveness,
• 1:50:42
  Speaker 1: peace are forms of truth. Impartiality, self control, modesty, endurance, goodness, renunciation, meditation, dignity, fortitude, compassion,
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 1: and abstention from injury are the various forms of truth.
• 1:50:58
  Speaker 1: All the above virtues, though seemingly different, have but one
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 1: in the same form, namely truth. All these hold up
• 1:51:06
  Speaker 1: truth and strengthen it. When the path of truth is trodden,
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 1: everything else also is done. When the root is watered,
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 1: all the branches are automatically watered. The supreme commandment be truthful.
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 1: All righteousness is contained in this one commandment. Whatever you do,
• 1:51:26
  Speaker 1: be true to yourself and to the world. Hide not
• 1:51:30
  Speaker 1: your thoughts, Be frank, be sincere, be candid, be straightforward,
• 1:51:38
  Speaker 1: Be courageous to express your views. Be faithful to your trust.
• 1:51:44
  Speaker 1: Deceive not the man who relies upon you. Keep up
• 1:51:47
  Speaker 1: your promise, even at the cost of your life. Your
• 1:51:51
  Speaker 1: life may go, but not the given word. Do not
• 1:51:54
  Speaker 1: hastily give your assent to anybody to anything. Think deeply, cogitate, reflect,
• 1:52:03
  Speaker 1: Say I shall think over the matter and talk to
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 1: you later on. Thus you will not be entangled. Do
• 1:52:10
  Speaker 1: not make promises, but say I shall try, I shall
• 1:52:14
  Speaker 1: think over the matter. You are saved. You will not
• 1:52:18
  Speaker 1: be caught in the whirlpool of troubles, repentance, and sorrow.
• 1:52:23
  Speaker 1: To tell a lie is a great sin. He who
• 1:52:26
  Speaker 1: utters falsehood loses the faith of other persons. People will
• 1:52:30
  Speaker 1: not believe him even if he speaks the truth. The
• 1:52:33
  Speaker 1: habit of telling lies becomes deep rooted by repetition of lies.
• 1:52:38
  Speaker 1: Man tells several lies to cover up one lie. A
• 1:52:42
  Speaker 1: lie concealed by another lie leads to more lies. A
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 1: sin concealed by another sin leads to more sins. A
• 1:52:50
  Speaker 1: liar is a coward. Uttering falsehood is a certain mark
• 1:52:54
  Speaker 1: of cowardice. Speak truth, you will become courageous. Truth is
• 1:53:00
  Speaker 1: fearless and strong. Truth is complete in itself. Truth has
• 1:53:06
  Speaker 1: a strong foundation in itself. It is bold. It has
• 1:53:10
  Speaker 1: no fears. It has no limit of space or time.
• 1:53:15
  Speaker 1: It is a fearless free bird in the sky. It
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 1: does not care for status. It is wealth in itself.
• 1:53:23
  Speaker 1: Truth stands even when there is no public support. Truth
• 1:53:27
  Speaker 1: can be compared to a road of pasture, while falsehood
• 1:53:29
  Speaker 1: can be compared to a bush of thorns. In a
• 1:53:33
  Speaker 1: man who indulges in false thoughts, there is a lurking
• 1:53:36
  Speaker 1: fear at every moment, an uneasiness, a fear of the self,
• 1:53:40
  Speaker 1: a want of confidence, and a feeling that something wrong
• 1:53:42
  Speaker 1: may happen. Truth, on the other hand, is the path
• 1:53:46
  Speaker 1: of righteousness, which certainly leads to success in the long run.
• 1:53:51
  Speaker 1: It is a straight road with no doubtful cross roads.
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 1: In the day to day world. It seems as though
• 1:53:57
  Speaker 1: it is impracticable to strictly follow the path of truth,
• 1:54:00
  Speaker 1: But if it is practiced as your ideal and goal
• 1:54:02
  Speaker 1: in life, you have your way. All the stumbling blocks
• 1:54:06
  Speaker 1: on your road to truth will melt away as you
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 1: proceed along the direct road. Certain fallacies. There are certain
• 1:54:14
  Speaker 1: fallacies that arise in following the straight path of truth.
• 1:54:18
  Speaker 1: It is absolutely no harm for a mother who fondly
• 1:54:21
  Speaker 1: nurses the child in just averting the attention of the
• 1:54:23
  Speaker 1: child by saying that the small piece of sweetmeat has
• 1:54:26
  Speaker 1: been carried away by the crow a short while back,
• 1:54:29
  Speaker 1: and when she shows to be extremely sorry for it,
• 1:54:31
  Speaker 1: and brings round the ideas of the child by saying, Papa,
• 1:54:35
  Speaker 1: do not mind it. I shall bring a bigger cake
• 1:54:37
  Speaker 1: for you in the evening. It is absolutely no untruth
• 1:54:41
  Speaker 1: if you do not interfere with others, wound their feelings,
• 1:54:44
  Speaker 1: harm others, or spoil others. If you refuse a small loan,
• 1:54:49
  Speaker 1: certainly with something for you to fall back upon. If
• 1:54:51
  Speaker 1: you refuse to lend your pen or any object that
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 1: you would like not to lend, these cannot be counted
• 1:54:57
  Speaker 1: as untruths. Varying conception of truth A worldly man. A
• 1:55:03
  Speaker 1: moralist and a spiritual man have different conceptions of truth.
• 1:55:07
  Speaker 1: A moralist cares for the result of truth. If a
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 1: man can save the lives of many innocent persons by
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 1: telling a lie, it is truth for a moralist, because
• 1:55:16
  Speaker 1: an untruth has brought greatest good. If the uttering of
• 1:55:20
  Speaker 1: a truth brings greater harm to many persons, it is
• 1:55:23
  Speaker 1: an untruth according to a moralist. According to a spiritual man,
• 1:55:28
  Speaker 1: Brahman is truth. This world is unreal. Brahman, the only truth.
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 1: The world is untruth, and the absolute is truth. The
• 1:55:38
  Speaker 1: world is represented by sex and ego. The absolute is
• 1:55:41
  Speaker 1: represented by the nomental gnostic being. Truth is not expressed
• 1:55:46
  Speaker 1: even by existence, consciousness, joy. It is only the nearest
• 1:55:50
  Speaker 1: relative of truth. Truth is even greater, grander, mightier, truer.
• 1:55:56
  Speaker 1: Truth is Untruth is not. Hence, it is not absolutely
• 1:56:01
  Speaker 1: correct even to say that truth is one, For truth
• 1:56:04
  Speaker 1: is existence itself, and is neither one nor not one.
• 1:56:09
  Speaker 1: Truth is undivided. Truth is utterly public. It cannot be hidden,
• 1:56:14
  Speaker 1: even if one would try to do so. Truth persists
• 1:56:18
  Speaker 1: and is expressed even in the extreme of untruth. The
• 1:56:22
  Speaker 1: extreme of truth is the absolute. Untruth is a shadow
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 1: of truth. Everything that changes itself is untruth. Hence truth
• 1:56:32
  Speaker 1: is infinite. Truth alone endures while everything else perishes. Everyone,
• 1:56:38
  Speaker 1: right from Brahma down to a blade of grass, moves
• 1:56:41
  Speaker 1: towards truth, some consciously, some unconsciously. They differ only in
• 1:56:46
  Speaker 1: the degree of consciousness, or to the extent of mental
• 1:56:49
  Speaker 1: purification or subtlety of condition. Every leaf that flies in
• 1:56:54
  Speaker 1: the air, every breath that flows from us. In other words,
• 1:56:57
  Speaker 1: every act of universal life is a state taken nearer
• 1:57:00
  Speaker 1: the truth. For truth is the eternal home of all beings.
• 1:57:05
  Speaker 1: Into it they all enter and find permanent satisfaction and peace.
• 1:57:10
  Speaker 1: It is truth that triumphs over falsehood, not falsehood over truth.
• 1:57:14
  Speaker 1: Whatever the apparent and immediate experience may be, the practice
• 1:57:18
  Speaker 1: of truth, scriptures emphatically declare speak the truth. Truth alone
• 1:57:24
  Speaker 1: triumphs falsehood. Never. God is truth, and truth must be
• 1:57:29
  Speaker 1: realized by speaking truth. A truthful man is absolutely free
• 1:57:34
  Speaker 1: from worries and anxieties. He has a calm mind. If
• 1:57:38
  Speaker 1: one observes speaking truth for twelve years, one will get
• 1:57:42
  Speaker 1: perfection of speech. Then whatever one speaks will come to pass.
• 1:57:47
  Speaker 1: There will be power in the speech of such a person.
• 1:57:51
  Speaker 1: Your thoughts should agree with your words, and the words
• 1:57:53
  Speaker 1: should agree with your actions. In the world, people think
• 1:57:57
  Speaker 1: of one thing, say another thing, and do another thing.
• 1:58:01
  Speaker 1: This is horrible, This is nothing but crookedness. You must
• 1:58:06
  Speaker 1: carefully watch your thoughts, words and actions. The little gain
• 1:58:11
  Speaker 1: that you get by telling lies is no gain at all.
• 1:58:15
  Speaker 1: You pollute your conscience and infect your subconscious mind. The
• 1:58:19
  Speaker 1: habit of telling lies is carried to your next birth also,
• 1:58:22
  Speaker 1: and you undergo suffering from birth to birth. Meditate on truth.
• 1:58:27
  Speaker 1: Derive inspiration from the lives of those who have sacrificed
• 1:58:31
  Speaker 1: there all for the sake of truth. Write in bold
• 1:58:33
  Speaker 1: types the words speak truth on cardboards and hang them
• 1:58:36
  Speaker 1: in different places in your house. This will caution you
• 1:58:40
  Speaker 1: when you are about to speak a lie. You will
• 1:58:43
  Speaker 1: then check yourself at once. A time will come when
• 1:58:46
  Speaker 1: you will be established in the habit of speaking truth.
• 1:58:50
  Speaker 1: Punish yourself by fasting if you tell a lie, and
• 1:58:52
  Speaker 1: record the lies in a diary. Gradually the number of
• 1:58:56
  Speaker 1: lies will decrease, and you will become a truthful man.
• 1:59:00
  Speaker 1: Stick to the path of truth at all costs. Truth
• 1:59:04
  Speaker 1: has a luster of its own. It shines for itself
• 1:59:07
  Speaker 1: and sheds its light on others. When you stick to
• 1:59:11
  Speaker 1: truth as your only religion. When you strictly adhere to
• 1:59:13
  Speaker 1: truth alone at all times, at all places, and on
• 1:59:17
  Speaker 1: all occasions, you cannot afford to harm any one. Perfect
• 1:59:21
  Speaker 1: peace and real happiness will be yours. Have ceaseless devotion
• 1:59:26
  Speaker 1: to truth, be ready to sacrifice your all for it.
• 1:59:30
  Speaker 1: You will develop a strong will, You will become fearless.
• 1:59:35
  Speaker 1: You will draw immense strength and courage from the Ottman
• 1:59:38
  Speaker 1: or the supreme self within. You will attain self realization.
• 1:59:43
  Speaker 1: Truth the first and the last thing. Should you ask
• 1:59:47
  Speaker 1: me what is the first thing in realization? I should
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 1: reply the first, second, and third thing. Therein nay, all
• 1:59:54
  Speaker 1: is truthfulness. Let truth and purity light up your career,
• 1:59:59
  Speaker 1: guide your conduct, and mold your character. If the mind
• 2:00:03
  Speaker 1: is impure, self realization cannot be attained, even if you
• 2:00:06
  Speaker 1: meditate for twenty hours daily. Even Yiddish Thyrah had to
• 2:00:10
  Speaker 1: see the hell as he once told a lie, modified,
• 2:00:13
  Speaker 1: twisted truth in a dexterous manner. In truth, there is
• 2:00:18
  Speaker 1: no deceit. That which is simulated is untruth. Truth can
• 2:00:23
  Speaker 1: never contradict non injury. When it does, it is no
• 2:00:27
  Speaker 1: more a truth but the selfishness of the man which
• 2:00:30
  Speaker 1: is on the four. When truth speaking leads another to
• 2:00:33
  Speaker 1: dishonor injury and pain, it is no longer a virtue.
• 2:00:38
  Speaker 1: Then it becomes a deadly sin. Speak what is true?
• 2:00:43
  Speaker 1: Speak what is pleasant? Speak? No disagreeable truth, speak, no
• 2:00:48
  Speaker 1: agreeable falsehood. Truth always exists in a pure and unmixed state.
• 2:00:54
  Speaker 1: Truth includes self restraint, absence of jealousy, forgiveness, patience, endurance, kindness, love,
• 2:01:02
  Speaker 1: Peace is truth. Truth is peace. If you want to
• 2:01:06
  Speaker 1: attain peace, be truthful at all times. Mind is exalted
• 2:01:11
  Speaker 1: by truthfulness. Intellect is refined by sublime divine ideas. By
• 2:01:17
  Speaker 1: the practice of speaking the truth, the antikarana is purified
• 2:01:21
  Speaker 1: of its dirt. It shines like a clean mirror and
• 2:01:25
  Speaker 1: reflects the divine form of the Lord with great effulgence.
• 2:01:29
  Speaker 1: All is well with him whose heart is turned towards
• 2:01:31
  Speaker 1: the true. No disease, physical or mental can assault him.
• 2:01:37
  Speaker 1: The mover towards the truth is mighty, lives long, knows everything,
• 2:01:41
  Speaker 1: and is ever delighted, for he is nearing the Almighty.
• 2:01:45
  Speaker 1: The path of truth is a precipitous one. It is
• 2:01:48
  Speaker 1: slippery and as sharp as the razor's edge. Hard it
• 2:01:52
  Speaker 1: is to tread difficult a path. It is giants among
• 2:01:56
  Speaker 1: spiritual men. Walk over it to the city of perfection.
• 2:02:00
  Speaker 1: Keep company with evolved souls who tread the path of truth.
• 2:02:04
  Speaker 1: Always mark carefully what is going on in the inner
• 2:02:07
  Speaker 1: mental factory. Give up all sorts of mean actions. Become
• 2:02:11
  Speaker 1: a noble, magnanimous soul. Nobility is good, Magnanimity is truth.
• 2:02:19
  Speaker 1: If people mock at you, keep quiet, never retort, excuse them,
• 2:02:25
  Speaker 1: give a vidantic smile. Stand adamantin as that yonder rock.
• 2:02:31
  Speaker 1: Will you my dear nurungen bliss divine? By Swami Sivanandal Verigia,
• 2:02:39
  Speaker 1: There is a way to the immortal abode. There is
• 2:02:42
  Speaker 1: a way to supreme happiness. There is a way to
• 2:02:45
  Speaker 1: the fourth dimension. That way is veragia. Follow the way,
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 1: Follow the way. Veragia is dispassion, desirelessness, or non attachment.
• 2:02:58
  Speaker 1: It is indifference to sensual objects herein and hereafter. It
• 2:03:02
  Speaker 1: is born of and sustained by right, discrimination or sad vivica.
• 2:03:07
  Speaker 1: Verajaiya is the opposite of raga or attachment. Raga attachment
• 2:03:12
  Speaker 1: binds a man to some sara cycle of death and rebirth.
• 2:03:15
  Speaker 1: Verajaia dispassion liberates a man from bondage. Verajaiya thins out
• 2:03:20
  Speaker 1: the fatty sensual mind. It turns the mind inward. Verajaia
• 2:03:26
  Speaker 1: is the most important qualification for a spiritual aspirant. Without it,
• 2:03:31
  Speaker 1: no spiritual life is possible. The pull of raged vesha,
• 2:03:36
  Speaker 1: the two currents of the mind, attraction and repulsion, really
• 2:03:39
  Speaker 1: constitute the world of somesaraw. A worldly man is a
• 2:03:43
  Speaker 1: slave of these two mighty currents. He is tossed about
• 2:03:47
  Speaker 1: hither and thither like a piece of straw. He smiles
• 2:03:51
  Speaker 1: when he gets pleasure, he weeps when he gets pain.
• 2:03:54
  Speaker 1: He clings to pleasant objects. He runs away from objects
• 2:03:57
  Speaker 1: that cause pain. Where wherever there is sensation of pleasure,
• 2:04:01
  Speaker 1: the mind gets glued, as it were, to the object
• 2:04:05
  Speaker 1: that gives pleasure. This is what is called attachment. This
• 2:04:09
  Speaker 1: only brings bondage and pain. When the object is either
• 2:04:13
  Speaker 1: withdrawn or when it perishes, the mind gets unspeakable pain.
• 2:04:18
  Speaker 1: Attraction is the root cause for human sufferings. A dispassionate
• 2:04:23
  Speaker 1: man has a different training, He has a different experience altogether.
• 2:04:28
  Speaker 1: He is a past master in the art or science
• 2:04:30
  Speaker 1: of separating himself from the impermanent, perishable objects. He has
• 2:04:35
  Speaker 1: absolutely no attraction for them. He constantly dwells in the eternal.
• 2:04:41
  Speaker 1: He stands at a manton as a peak amidst a
• 2:04:43
  Speaker 1: turbulent storm, the spectator of this wonderful world show. A
• 2:04:48
  Speaker 1: dispassionate man has no attraction for pleasant objects and no
• 2:04:51
  Speaker 1: repulsion for painful ones. Nor is he afraid of pain.
• 2:04:56
  Speaker 1: He knows well that pain helps quite a lot in
• 2:04:59
  Speaker 1: his progress and evolution, in his journey towards the goal.
• 2:05:03
  Speaker 1: He stands convinced that pain is the best teacher in
• 2:05:06
  Speaker 1: the world. How to cultivate veragia. Veragia comes through looking
• 2:05:12
  Speaker 1: into the defects of sensual life. Look into the defects
• 2:05:16
  Speaker 1: of sensual life or sensual pleasure, you will develop dispassion
• 2:05:21
  Speaker 1: when you are not impressed with rich living. Rich style
• 2:05:24
  Speaker 1: of living cannot attract you. When you are impressed with
• 2:05:27
  Speaker 1: the idea that meat and wine are not at all pleasurable,
• 2:05:31
  Speaker 1: meat and wine cannot tempt you. When you are impressed
• 2:05:34
  Speaker 1: that a woman is nothing but a leather bag of
• 2:05:36
  Speaker 1: pus urine bones and fish, woman cannot tempt you. In
• 2:05:42
  Speaker 1: that case, If you fail to get meat or wine
• 2:05:44
  Speaker 1: or woman, or to have a rich living, you will
• 2:05:47
  Speaker 1: not be agonized at all in your mind. Aspirants should
• 2:05:51
  Speaker 1: study BARTR. Harri's Veragia Setacum and other works on veragia.
• 2:05:56
  Speaker 1: These will increase your desire for liberation and your conviction
• 2:05:59
  Speaker 1: in spiritual life. Sri Rama describes the disastrous effects of lust, wealth,
• 2:06:05
  Speaker 1: the miseries of birth and infancy. A beautiful description is
• 2:06:09
  Speaker 1: given in the Veragia Procurana of the Yoga Vasishta. Everyone
• 2:06:14
  Speaker 1: should read it. This will induce veragia in the mind.
• 2:06:19
  Speaker 1: Degrees in verajaia. There are different degrees in verajaiya. Supreme
• 2:06:25
  Speaker 1: dispassion or paraveragia comes after one attained self realization. The
• 2:06:30
  Speaker 1: whole world then looks like a straw. The verajaiya becomes
• 2:06:34
  Speaker 1: perfectly habitual, that is intense spiritual strength. That is paraveragaia.
• 2:06:41
  Speaker 1: Temporary fleeting dispassion is not verajaya. It will not help
• 2:06:46
  Speaker 1: the aspirant in the attainment of self realization. It is
• 2:06:50
  Speaker 1: common to have dispassion for some particular objects by some
• 2:06:53
  Speaker 1: cause or the other, but it is only by having
• 2:06:56
  Speaker 1: dispassion for all objects at all times that one will
• 2:06:59
  Speaker 1: get knowledge of the self. Intense veragia only will help
• 2:07:04
  Speaker 1: the aspirind to stick to the spiritual path. Kurana veragia
• 2:07:08
  Speaker 1: born of disappointment, loss, death of relatives will leave you.
• 2:07:12
  Speaker 1: At any moment. It will be waiting for chances to
• 2:07:15
  Speaker 1: seize again the objects that were once renounced. It will
• 2:07:19
  Speaker 1: evaporate quickly like ether, chloroform, or ammonia. But the veragia
• 2:07:25
  Speaker 1: that is born of vivica discrimination between real and unreal
• 2:07:28
  Speaker 1: is enduring and everlasting. It will not fail the aspirant
• 2:07:32
  Speaker 1: at any time, like the veragia that comes temporarily when
• 2:07:35
  Speaker 1: a lady gives birth to a child, or when a
• 2:07:38
  Speaker 1: man attends a funeral in the crematorium. Real veragia should
• 2:07:42
  Speaker 1: come from inquiry, vicara, deliberation. All these objects do not
• 2:07:47
  Speaker 1: give us lasting happiness. They lead us into pain and sorrow.
• 2:07:52
  Speaker 1: Such deep inquiry, again and again, persisted in for a
• 2:07:55
  Speaker 1: very long time, produces lasting veragia. It is the real
• 2:08:00
  Speaker 1: wealth for an aspirant. It helps him to do real sodonaw.
• 2:08:05
  Speaker 1: It makes the mind introvert. This veragia puts a break
• 2:08:09
  Speaker 1: to the extrovert tendency of the mind. Even if the
• 2:08:12
  Speaker 1: mind runs towards objects at once, it will point out
• 2:08:15
  Speaker 1: that there is pain there that sensual enjoyment is the
• 2:08:18
  Speaker 1: cause for rebirth and intense suffering. So the mind is
• 2:08:22
  Speaker 1: terribly afraid, and gradually, through intense practice, it is established
• 2:08:27
  Speaker 1: in real, lasting, sustained, intense veragia dispassion. The mind should
• 2:08:33
  Speaker 1: gradually be weaned off its old habits and cravings. If
• 2:08:37
  Speaker 1: you cut off all at once its pleasure centers, it
• 2:08:39
  Speaker 1: will get puzzled. You should slowly train the mind in
• 2:08:43
  Speaker 1: meditation and make it taste the inner bliss. Gradually it
• 2:08:47
  Speaker 1: will leave off its old habits and old cravings, and
• 2:08:50
  Speaker 1: you can get yourself established in true veragia. Veraigaia a
• 2:08:55
  Speaker 1: mental state. Veragia does not mean abandoning social duties and
• 2:08:59
  Speaker 1: the respect reponsibilities of life. It does not mean detachment
• 2:09:03
  Speaker 1: from the world. It does not mean a life in
• 2:09:06
  Speaker 1: the solitary caves of the Himalayas or in the crematorium.
• 2:09:10
  Speaker 1: It does not mean living on nim leaves, cow's urine
• 2:09:13
  Speaker 1: in dung. It does not mean wearing of matted hair
• 2:09:17
  Speaker 1: and a common dolla made of gourd or coconut shell
• 2:09:19
  Speaker 1: in the hand. It does not mean shaving of head
• 2:09:23
  Speaker 1: and throwing off clothes. Verajaia is mental detachment from all
• 2:09:27
  Speaker 1: connections of the world. A man may remain in the
• 2:09:31
  Speaker 1: world and discharge all the duties of his order in
• 2:09:34
  Speaker 1: stage of life. With detachment, he may be a householder.
• 2:09:38
  Speaker 1: What if he may live with family and children, But
• 2:09:43
  Speaker 1: at the same time he may have perfect mental detachment
• 2:09:46
  Speaker 1: from everything he can do his spiritual sodonau. That man
• 2:09:51
  Speaker 1: who has perfect mental detachment while remaining in the world
• 2:09:54
  Speaker 1: is a hero. Indeed, he is much better than the
• 2:09:58
  Speaker 1: sawdu living in the cave of the himalay because the
• 2:10:01
  Speaker 1: former has to face innumerable temptations at every moment of
• 2:10:04
  Speaker 1: his life. Wherever a man may go, he carries with
• 2:10:08
  Speaker 1: him his fickle, restless mind, his vesanas and samskaras. Even
• 2:10:13
  Speaker 1: if he lives in solitude in the Himalayas, still he
• 2:10:16
  Speaker 1: is the same worldly man if he is engaged in
• 2:10:18
  Speaker 1: building castles in the air and in thinking of the
• 2:10:21
  Speaker 1: objects of the world. In that case, even the cave
• 2:10:25
  Speaker 1: becomes a big city for him. If the mind remains quiet,
• 2:10:29
  Speaker 1: if it is free from attachments, one can be a
• 2:10:31
  Speaker 1: perfect viragi even while living in a mansion in the
• 2:10:34
  Speaker 1: busiest part of a city like Calcutta. Such a mansion
• 2:10:38
  Speaker 1: will be converted into a dense forest by him. Verajaya
• 2:10:42
  Speaker 1: is purely a mental state. Generally, aspirins say, I have
• 2:10:47
  Speaker 1: given up shirt, I have given up sweater, I have
• 2:10:49
  Speaker 1: given up shoes. I live only on bread and dal.
• 2:10:53
  Speaker 1: Their whole sodna consists in giving up, give up, this
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 1: give up. That real spiritual life does not involve any
• 2:11:01
  Speaker 1: giving up or taking. The only thing is you should
• 2:11:04
  Speaker 1: not give leniency to the mind. If you are very
• 2:11:08
  Speaker 1: hungry in the morning, take one or two itaies and
• 2:11:10
  Speaker 1: a small cup of milk. But do not give leniency
• 2:11:14
  Speaker 1: to the mind. It will hurl you down. Always be watchful,
• 2:11:20
  Speaker 1: be eternally vigilant. Some Sinyasin's ascetics practice verajaiya in order
• 2:11:25
  Speaker 1: to get pradeshta or fame and respect. Some sinhasins working
• 2:11:30
  Speaker 1: for the public good make resolves. We will not travel
• 2:11:33
  Speaker 1: in trains, we will walk only. We will not take milk, fruits,
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 1: et cetera. We will not use fountain, pens or watch
• 2:11:44
  Speaker 1: These are not desirable resolves. This is not the real
• 2:11:48
  Speaker 1: nature of aragva. This is another kind of defect. Attachment
• 2:11:53
  Speaker 1: to verajaya is as much an evil as attachment itself.
• 2:11:58
  Speaker 1: These Sanyasin's ascetics want to do so. If they move
• 2:12:02
  Speaker 1: in cars or trains. If they keep the body strong
• 2:12:05
  Speaker 1: and healthy, they can do more service in a short
• 2:12:07
  Speaker 1: space of time. Those who do much writing work can
• 2:12:11
  Speaker 1: turn out much work if they use a fountain pen.
• 2:12:14
  Speaker 1: Foolishness assumes various forms. This is one kind. It does
• 2:12:19
  Speaker 1: not leave even educated persons or cultured sinacins. You should
• 2:12:24
  Speaker 1: have extreme or tievra veragaia internally and at the same
• 2:12:28
  Speaker 1: time follow the middle path externally. Verajaia dispassion is a
• 2:12:33
  Speaker 1: means for attaining wisdom of the self. It is not
• 2:12:36
  Speaker 1: the goal itself. A Javan mukta or realized sage has
• 2:12:40
  Speaker 1: neither raga attachment nor veragia non attachment. If you give
• 2:12:45
  Speaker 1: him a little dry bread alone, he is quite satisfied.
• 2:12:49
  Speaker 1: He will not grumble. If you give him the best sweetmeats,
• 2:12:53
  Speaker 1: milk and fruits, he will not refuse, but he will
• 2:12:56
  Speaker 1: not be elated by good food. He has equanimity of mine.
• 2:13:01
  Speaker 1: He is above likes and dislikes. He always takes delight
• 2:13:05
  Speaker 1: in his own self only, but not in external objects. Mahariagi.
• 2:13:11
  Speaker 1: He who is endowed with equanimity of mind towards objects
• 2:13:14
  Speaker 1: is called a mahariagi or great aramit or great assetic.
• 2:13:19
  Speaker 1: It is easy to practice verijaya dispassion, but it is
• 2:13:22
  Speaker 1: extremely difficult to keep the evenness of mind. Sukadiva was
• 2:13:26
  Speaker 1: tested by Raja Janaka. He was made to remain without
• 2:13:30
  Speaker 1: food at the gate for some days. He was quite peaceful.
• 2:13:35
  Speaker 1: Then he was taken to the harem Ranis served him
• 2:13:39
  Speaker 1: and gave him best food. He remained unaffected. This is wisdom.
• 2:13:45
  Speaker 1: Young aspirants should be very careful and cautious. They should
• 2:13:49
  Speaker 1: not take advantage of the liberty of a mahariagi great assetic.
• 2:13:53
  Speaker 1: This can be practiced only by an advanced Yogan who
• 2:13:56
  Speaker 1: has got equal vision. Over All beings should stick to
• 2:14:00
  Speaker 1: their resolves of truth a hymns and non violence, Brahmakaria,
• 2:14:04
  Speaker 1: celibacy and verijia dispassion to the very letter and spirit.
• 2:14:09
  Speaker 1: Do not imitate jaivanmuktis liberated while living, you are still
• 2:14:13
  Speaker 1: an adept. Vasishtha had a wife, but he was a
• 2:14:16
  Speaker 1: born perfected Sidtha Janaka ruled a kingdom. After severe tapas
• 2:14:21
  Speaker 1: and realization of the truth. Krishna lived a princely life,
• 2:14:26
  Speaker 1: but he was one with the infinite. You are not
• 2:14:29
  Speaker 1: expected to behave like them. You must do Sodna realization.
• 2:14:34
  Speaker 1: You must have Abhyasa practice and verijia dispassion
