love is not mathematics...
love is not mathematics...
it is not a football to be kicked from here to there
it is there to stay..to exist...
it is nurtured with respect acceptance intimacy devotion prayers and contradictory truths...
it is something that is out of reach of the mind..
how can a logical mind be capable of experiencing that love...which is imperishable...
it is going beyond madness...
it is beyond rights and wrongs
it is beyond creation and destruction
time cannot destroy it neither can space or distance
it is an indestructable focus of oneness ...beyond anyone's judgements and opinions
it is just giving giving giving ..and first of all making oneself capable of giving from within...deep within
it is accepting your loved ones and your beloved as it is...and getting one in supreme growth of the all of them...
to realise this it takes a few moments or may be many lifetimes and sometimes it is never realised
...love is not mathematics ...
unexplainable...beyond words ....is love...

guru poornima...2008
“Dhyaana moolam Gurur Moortihi,
Pooja moolam Guroh Padam
Mantra moolam Gurur Vaakyam
Moksha moolam Guru Kripa”.
Guru’s form is the best to meditate upon,
Guru’s feet are the best to worship;
Guru’s word is the best mantra,
Guru’s Grace is the way to Liberation.
Guru purnima is the day to feel grateful for the great knowledge you have received from your master. It is time to review how much knowledge you could ingrain in your life in past one year. This may bring about a realization for scope of improvement which in turn will bring humility in you. Be grateful for the way this knowledge has transformed you. Just think how you could have been without this. There is a definite change inside you. If you cannot see any change, then you haven’t had a good look in yourself. Gratitude and humility together blossom a genuine prayer inside you!
Guru is a tatva - an element, a quality; inside you. It is not limited to a body or a form.
Life is an ocean of love. Flow the lamp of knowledge in it. Even let the knowledge be flown away in the ocean of love. The ego that comes out of truth and knowledge is dangerous. Sense of righteousness makes you hard. So in the wave of devotion and love; you even let the knowledge get washed out.
About Guru Purnima (Excerpts from talks and QA with guruji)
Q. What is the story behind Gurupurnima?
A. Acharya (teacher) gives knowledge and Guru gives height of awareness and makes you alive. Acharya gives information, Guru gives intelligence, an awakened intelligence. Mind is connected with moon. Full moon is completion, the pinnacle. On Gurupurnima the devotee wakes up in full gratitude. Devotee becomes like an ocean moving in itself. It’s the time to come in fullness. It’s a time to celebrate. It’s also called “Vyasa Purnima”. Vyasa had given knowledge on each and every subject.
So in Gurupunima you remember all gurus of the past. It is the day when devotee arises in full gratitude, they turn back and see how they changed and developed in the last 1 year. They assess what lessons they have learned and how they are growing in knowledge. It’s reviewing yourself in knowledge. Mind needs to be reminded again and again, so we review it.
Q. People blindly worship a Guru? Is it ok? Shouldn’t they just worship the divine?
A. Why does somebody adore someone else? In college, rock star, movie stars, sports players are adored. This adulation is part of human nature. Deep inside it is your ability to appreciate and honor good qualities. This adulation of Gurus has come down the ages. In the East, people took pride in their Gurus. There was a lot of respect but it’s missing in the students now. They throw tomatoes at their teachers. We have now gone to the other extreme. When your life is full, you get a feeling of gratitude. You start with the Guru and end up adoring everything in life. Guru is just a beginning. In India there is a festival in October when people worship everything from cars, scooters etc. Everything is venerated. Divine dwells in every particle. In the East the tradition was that before cutting a tree, you have to plant 5 more. An innocent mind sees life everywhere. Life has to be honored, adored. If you cannot do this, then what else is left in life? It is so dry, just eat, drink and sleep. Whenever you praise, the praise goes to the divine. If you praise your Guru, the praise goes to the divine. When you praise someone, you own consciousness is expanding. So for your own sake, adore and venerate others.
Q. I feel like I want to be close to you and I don’t know how. I love you.
A. It is good, heart breaks and love flows. In the world out there heart breaks and misery comes, but here when heart breaks, love flows and life blossoms. Good. Just assume you are already close to me and when you are smiling, when you do service, when you are in knowledge - you are so much close to me. And see more and more people get the benefit of this knowledge what you are having. Just turn back and see your life, how much it has changed as you did the practices, the meditations, your kriya and relate to yourself the person who was there before doing the kriya. What a big difference. Isn’t it? How many of you feel you are not the same person. Almost everybody isn’t it, so that benefit, that opening, we need to bring in others life as well, we need to do that.
Q. How to find a guru or choose a guru?
A. Guru is too big for you to make. If you make Guru you are bigger than the Guru. Guru comes in your life in spite of your refusing or rebelliousness. Don’t struggle to make a Guru. Just relax. Life keeps changing. Wake up and see. Feel grateful. Give all your garbage to the Guru. Guru makes gold out of garbage. Guru makes a fool intelligent. It is easy to make that change because everyone is made up of that one thing.
Q. How to become a sincere devotee?
A. Just you have to assume that you are really sincere devotee. You give grade to yourself. I am number 1 devotee. Nobody’s like me. But don’t think so and so is number 1 devotee and I’m number 2. Each one of us should say I’m number 1 devotee. Nobody’s like me. Then that is how the devotion grows. If you think you are number 2, number 3, number 10, then that much, you will be away from the knowledge. You know this problem is there with many - that after basic course, you continue for sometime then you drop. Then afterwards it becomes very difficult. If you do an advanced course, it will bring you back in the knowledge.
Q. Guruji, you are the best.
A. Only best can recognize the best.
Q. A devotee is very happy on getting a Guru, does the Guru feel the same happiness in getting a devotee?
A. Seeing your happiness he gets happiness.
Q. I want a Guru mantra from you.
A. That is there. Sudarshan kriya is there.
Q. Guruji, show me the path.
A. Why? Why shall I show you the path? I’m not so irresponsible. Ill take you to your goal. It’s my habit. It’s the age of aero planes and you are talking in terms of bullock carts. You have sat in plane and your flight has taken off. Now, this plane will take you to your destination, you don’t need to ask for the path.
Q. What quality should an ideal disciple have? Do you differentiate between disciples?
A. Don’t worry so much, just be like a child, and take life with ease. Yes, I differentiate between disciples and you are very special. Each one of you is unique and each one is special, so everyone is different.
Q. You are so wonderful, when can I become like you?
A. First stop attempting to become like me. Second know that I’m you.
Guru Purnima Talk by Sri Sri , July 21st, 2005
Mother gives the first birth to a child. We come into the world through the mother. But second birth is through the teacher. Teacher delivers you the knowledge and skill. Today is the teacher’s, the master’s day. This is the second birth. Knowledge brings the second birth.
Whether you want it or not everybody is Guru to somebody. We either teach others what they should do or should not do. If we do good, we are teaching what they should do. If we do something wrong, we are teaching what they should not do by showing see how I’m suffering, so you should not do this. Everyone is an educator.
We all play the role of teacher, a guide, a guru … but when the spiritual knowledge is so total, that one is called Sathguru.
(Then Guruji conducted Guru Puja. Somebody asked about Dakshinamurthy Story.)
Haan, its a very nice story. Its about a teacher communicating knowledge to the student in silence. True wisdom is translated in silence. We don’t need all these translators, headphones etc. But that is when we transcend intellect. One level is through intellect and another through vibration.
When you are Guru, you are always young, never get old. What is being young ? Young is always enthusiastic, alive, new, fresh. Its clean and fresh. Not stuck in opinions. Non-opinionated mind. That’s the sign of a good teacher. Keep your opinions aside. Take a fresh look at people, situations, then learning is possible. Then you have knowledge.
Dakshinamurthy is lord shiva. He is the young teacher. Five rishis sat around him and asked him questions. Everything was answered in silence. That’s what happens in meditation. All five senses get knowledge in silence. That’s the symbolism of meditation. The deeper you go, fewer are the questions… there are no questions.
Today bundle all your problems, questions, worries, doubts and put it here. Knowledge here on this path is here for a very special purpose. Each one of you is a light house for many people. This one thing you keep in mind. I’m not just somebody, I’m light, I’m glow. With all your heart, whatever you wish today, one wish and it will come true.
Pooja moolam Guroh Padam
Mantra moolam Gurur Vaakyam
Moksha moolam Guru Kripa”.
Guru’s form is the best to meditate upon,
Guru’s feet are the best to worship;
Guru’s word is the best mantra,

sri sri"s views on organ donation...and other matters..
Subject: Guruji’s talk on the 12th Jan 2008
Question: Guruji, is it ok to donate some body parts after we die?
Guruji: Yes.. yes. It is definitely ok.
Question: Guruji, Why am I not like you?
Guruji: This is my wonder too!! But I feel you are like me. If you look from my point of view you will see we are not different. You and me are not separate. Can air be like yours and mine? Like can you say this is my air and that is your air?!?! No! Sunlight, water, cannot be two. The one which you think is yours and mine actually they are not separate.
Question: Guruji, can you please explain the meaning of Gyatri mantra?
Guruji: Oh! Gyatri mantra encompases the whole universe. There are 24 letters that make gyatri mantara. There are 24 vertebra in our spinal cord. One is omkar, two becomes So hujm, then like wise 16 and then 24 becomes Gyatri Mantara. Gyatri Mnatra is the expansion of that one omkar. If one is instructed you can certainly chant the mantra. The meaning of the Gyatri mantra is let the divinity sink through my intellect. Let our life be purified. But again if you just say Ohm, that also means the same.
Question: Guruji, this mandap is like a Srichakra. Can you explain the essence of Srichakra?
Guruji: It is nice no?!?! Then just sit and meditate. Why do you want to know the meaning and the essence etc!?? I myself don’t know the meaning!!
(laughter!!)
Question: Guruji, the imbalances in the body, (bata, pitta, kapha) causes a lot of other problems. How does one handle the vata Imbalance?
Guruji: Consult a Ayurvedic doctor, and triphala, it will balance the imbalance. Also drink a lot of water. Eat food on time…. Do asanas… do pranayama, do Sudarshan Kriya. All this will help.
Question: Swami Ramakrishna had said that Vivekananda will have to go once he comes to know who he was. How did he know this?
Guruji: No… no that is not correct. It is not like that.
Question: Guruji why does congeneital disorder happen?
Guruji: I don’t know.
Question continues….: Why did God do this to the children?
Guruji: Will put up a complain against God. Sometimes because of improper food this may happen.
Question: Guruji, when interest starts developing towards devotion, what should one do?
Guruji: Good. Very good. But simultaneously you must take care of the responsibilities as well. One should not run away.
Question: Guruji, we are asking you questions everyday. Can you please let us know what have we missed out on asking you!?!
Guruji: You should only have one question. “Who am I?” And that question you should ask yourself. That question itself is good enough to get that. Dive in you to go inward.
Question: (Question asked by a physically challenged person) Guruji, what is moksha?
Guruji: Good .. good very good!! The desire to know what is moksha is a good thing. Are you doing better now? Yes! Wow!! How much better do you feel now? 75% Wow!! Very good!!
Question: Guruji, how do you become more discipline?
Guruji: Be less feverish. If you are attached to the benefits then you become feverish. But when you have a commitment, then you automatically become more discipline.
Question: Guruji what is prarubdha?
Guruji: I have spoken about it in ‘Intimate note to a sincere seeker’.
Question: Guruji is it necessary to go to temples periodically? Does not worship happen when we are doing seva and meditation?
Guruji: Yes yes… seva is a form of worship.
Question: Guruji, can you tell us about the swami who is sitting next to you?
Guruji: Swami yogananda ji is 99 years old. He does wonderful yoga. His teeth, his eyes, his stomach, everything is perfect. He has been with Bhagat Singh, during those times.. He wants to live for more 100 years. Ask him what he eats, and he will tell you, you should eat only once. (laughter!!)
Question: Guruji you have given so many techniques. Are techniques important to pursue in the path?
Guruji: The root meaning of the word technique is ‘tantra’…these techniques are there to help one overcome obsession and other things in the mind… It is not just a way of life.
Question: Guruji, we have so many profound experiences. What is its significance of experiences in our life?
Guruji: Don’t bent so much on your experiences. Commitment is more important. There is a connection between the mind and the mood etc. Like the moon waxes and wanes… you experience feelings accordingly. Pleasant feelings come and go, unpleasant feelings come and go… Who cares how you feel? Love is your very existence. Love is not just an emotion. Don’t get caught up with feelings. Become strong. Your smile should be so strong… you know. How many of you feel really strong? Many of you could not relate to the person who you were before? Isn’t it?
Question: What should be our goal in life? What does this hall (Referring to Vishalakshi Mantap) signify?
Guruji: Goal in life? Good question. Its good for you to ponder. This hall (laughter!!) Tell me something, you come from the city… how do you feel after coming inside this hall? You feel energetic, yeh you feel good right? That’s the objective. That’s the significance of this hall.
Question: Guruji, we are always smiling since the time we met you. How do we spread this smile around?
Guruji: You have to talk to people. Bring people to knowledge.
Question: Guruji what is the difference God and Guru?
God is like space, and space is everywhere. Inside you there is space, inside me there is space. God is the space… OK let me put it in this way. There are electromagnetic waves. But you cannot actually see them right? But you can experience through television. Do you see what I am saying? The electromagnetic waves manifest in the form of television. You can only see the sky through the window. You cannot see the sky if there is a closed wall!! Can you? No. We are all made up of love and the guru is the embodiment of love. That’s why they say, God, atman, Guru, self are all one and the same. That means we don’t have to worry about anything. You simply become compassionate and spread love….and smile.
Question: Guruji, is it ok to donate some body parts after we die?
Guruji: Yes.. yes. It is definitely ok.
Question: Guruji, Why am I not like you?
Guruji: This is my wonder too!! But I feel you are like me. If you look from my point of view you will see we are not different. You and me are not separate. Can air be like yours and mine? Like can you say this is my air and that is your air?!?! No! Sunlight, water, cannot be two. The one which you think is yours and mine actually they are not separate.
Question: Guruji, can you please explain the meaning of Gyatri mantra?
Guruji: Oh! Gyatri mantra encompases the whole universe. There are 24 letters that make gyatri mantara. There are 24 vertebra in our spinal cord. One is omkar, two becomes So hujm, then like wise 16 and then 24 becomes Gyatri Mantara. Gyatri Mnatra is the expansion of that one omkar. If one is instructed you can certainly chant the mantra. The meaning of the Gyatri mantra is let the divinity sink through my intellect. Let our life be purified. But again if you just say Ohm, that also means the same.
Question: Guruji, this mandap is like a Srichakra. Can you explain the essence of Srichakra?
Guruji: It is nice no?!?! Then just sit and meditate. Why do you want to know the meaning and the essence etc!?? I myself don’t know the meaning!!
(laughter!!)
Question: Guruji, the imbalances in the body, (bata, pitta, kapha) causes a lot of other problems. How does one handle the vata Imbalance?
Guruji: Consult a Ayurvedic doctor, and triphala, it will balance the imbalance. Also drink a lot of water. Eat food on time…. Do asanas… do pranayama, do Sudarshan Kriya. All this will help.
Question: Swami Ramakrishna had said that Vivekananda will have to go once he comes to know who he was. How did he know this?
Guruji: No… no that is not correct. It is not like that.
Question: Guruji why does congeneital disorder happen?
Guruji: I don’t know.
Question continues….: Why did God do this to the children?
Guruji: Will put up a complain against God. Sometimes because of improper food this may happen.
Question: Guruji, when interest starts developing towards devotion, what should one do?
Guruji: Good. Very good. But simultaneously you must take care of the responsibilities as well. One should not run away.
Question: Guruji, we are asking you questions everyday. Can you please let us know what have we missed out on asking you!?!
Guruji: You should only have one question. “Who am I?” And that question you should ask yourself. That question itself is good enough to get that. Dive in you to go inward.

the life has so much to offer to u...
The life has so much to offer to you.
You can see this once you take sometime off, rejuvenatingthe soul. You soul is hungry for a smile from you.
If you could give this, you feel energised thewhole year and nothing whatsoever can take the smile from you.
Everyone wants to be successful in life. But without knowing what is success, you want to be successful.
What are the signs of success? Just having a lot of money, is that success? Why doyou think money means success? Because money gives you freedom so that you can dowhatever you want. You may have a big bank balance but, you have stomach aches, ulcers,you may have to go for bypass surgery; can’t eat this, can’t do this, can’t do that. We spendhalf our health to gain wealth and spend half our wealth to gain back the health. Isn’t thatfunny? Is this success?
It is very bad mathematics.Look at all those who claim to be successful — are they successful? No, they are miserable.
Then, what is the sign of success? The sign of success is overwhelming joy, right? It isconfidence, compassion, generosity and a smile that none can snatch away, being reallyhappy and being able to be more free. These are the signs of a successful person.
Take some time off to look a little deep into oneself and calm the mind down. Thus erasing allthe impressions that we are carrying in our minds and experience the presence, the divine that is the very core of our existence. --SRI SRI
