Guruji Satsang Knowledge - 18th June 2008

 

18th June 2008*

*Bangalore** Ashram*

Satsang at Vishalakshi Mantap, with not less than four thousand people
coming from all over the country... Devotees from Punjab, Haryana said
'Balle Balle' to Guruji, at which he smiled and said, "haaan Balle
Balle Another Devotee who was at the back said, "Guruji I want to come in
the front". To this Guruji answered, "If you stay ther,e u will come front."

*Question:* Guruji, how do I know which is the call of my mind and which is
the call of my soul?

*Guruji:* By meditation you will come to know. Meditation will help you in
discrimination.

*Question:* Guruji what is the difference between sleep and meditation?

*Guruji:* Sleep is related to inertia, while meditation is related to
awareness. In sleep you do not realize who you are and what you are and
where you are. In meditation you know where you are, what you are, and
sometimes you may even get a glimpse of who you are!! That is the state of
Samadhi.

You know like a crystal, what do you call it? Sphatik the sphatik itself is
colorless but however if you bring any color infront of the crystal it
reflects that same color. Similarly like in a mirror the mirror reflects
the object of reflection, but however it does not contain the object! Do you
see what I am saying? If you touch the mirror it will not be as good as
touching the object. It will be touching the mirror only! Similarly a lotus
leaf. Have you seen a lotus leaf? It stays in the water but as soon as it is
taken out of the water, it is free from the water! The mind should be like
that. It may catch a vision, a glimpse of the event but as soon as the event
is over it is untainted, untouched! It can stay for sometime and then it may
disappear. Nothing can get attached to the mind. Imagine you have been
watching so many movies for such a long time. If all those melodramas stays
back on the mind! Can you imagine the state of mind!??! (Laughter!!)
Sometimes it does stay back in the mind and that's why it appears in the
dreams. That's why u should do pranayama and meditate to erase the
impressions from the mind. Not all the time  but for sometime in a day. Then
you will become like that mirror. You will reflect the object but you are
not the object. Sometimes a lot of dust may accumulate on the mirror, making
the vision dull. But you have to clean that mirror. For example a doctor, he
sees so many patients in a day. All of them are in some pain! Imagine he
felt for all of them and cried!! (laughter!!) No, he just enters his room at
the end of the day and forgets about the patients he has seen over the
entire day. Similarly a nurse, she treats the patients all throughout the
day. But she is free from all the agonies of the patients as so as she
enters the wash room. You know its lie changing room like going from one
room to the other. Imagine if she cried for all the patients she met!! She
would not be in that profession!! (Laughter!!) Yes, if someone is really in
that frame of mind or in deep pain, and you are there at that time, there
are a lot of chances that you also may shed a few tear. You know you feel
for that person. But as soon as the person is gone you are not in that frame
of mind, you are back to your normal self. You don't carry the agony. But if
it was your family member, may be you would feel a little more. For a
little more time. But does the nurse feel like that for the patient? No!
"Alipt untouched, when u are untouched, creativity blossoms. When you
grow old you go on repeating the same thing again and again. Like that of a
child whose mind is not rigid we need to maintain that flexibility.
Otherwise what happens is you get stress and you stress others.

Meditation helps you to come out of it. And that is the sign of a yogi. U
can cry for others, its ok, but if you keep crying even when the other
person is out of it!!! That does not seem to be a sign of a yogi. 'Nirlipt'
Dispassion. It is not being harsh or hard to others. No! that's a wrong
concept people has. Soft, yet like a gem. Like a mirror fluid simple. And
sensitive these are the signs of Samadhi. And the feelings of Samadhi will
blossoming in life.

*Question:* Guruji, in Bhagawat Geeta Bhagwan Sri Krishna said to Arjuna to
be free from the cycle of birth and death. Can Sudarshan Kriya free us from
the cycle of birth and death?

Yes, of course!

*Question:* I often get possessed by atmas (souls), I feel horrible after
that. What do I do?

*Guruji:* There is no need to get horrified. Are you doing Sudarshan Kriya
everyday? Also you must eat properly. Eat well drink a lot of water.
Sometimes it happens due to some weakness in the nerves. Consult a doctor
here. Ok?

*Question:* Guruji, can you please talk about dreams?

*Guruji:* You know in ancient times they said, Tripuran. Which means three
cities like living in three cities at the same time. At one level it's the
physical body, when you are absolutely awake. Then is the dream state, the
'swapnavaastha' . Then there is this deep sleep state. In that state you are
almost in the state of inertia. You are not aware of anything. Then the
other level is the 'shivavastha' , the state of shiva, which is the
meditative state. In this state you are neither fully awake nor sleeping.
This is also called the 'Turiavaastha' . The other state is the state
'Turiateeth' , which means the cosmic consciousness. In this state even if
you are with your eyes opened, you are meditating. Meditation is happening
all the times. The 6th state is the Bhawavaastha. The highest state.

*Question:* Guruji, what are the effects of planet?

*Guruji:* Yeh,, you can change the effect the change of the planet with your
will power.

*Question: *What is the difference between compassion and passion?

*Guruji:* U tell me. You do a research on that and tell me that outcome.

*Question:* Guruji, the beautiful state of mind that is there in me right
now will disappear as soon as I hit the world out side. How to strike a
balance between the outside world and inner world?

*Guruji*: Have u ridden a bicycle? How do you balance? Just like that! When
u r going too extreme to the left side, u pull yourself to the right.
Similarly if you are going too much towards the right, you balance on the
left. Got it?
