Transcript of Satsang with Gurudev @SriSri at Ghaziabad today ! 30.11.14
#SriSriNow #SriSriInGzb
Wo kehte hai 8wks(2mnths) jo, koyi dhyan karega, do do time , subah shaam 20-25mins , unka brain structure change ho jaata hain, unka gray matter badh jata hai,usse alzheimer's jaise badi badi bimariyo ko aane se rok sakte hai,
Dhyaan ki itni visheshta hai !!
Hum toh jaante hi the, ab vaygyaniko ne bhi thappa maar diya...!Hum toh kabse keh rahe hain!
Humare desh ka sabse bada Mantra samja gaya Gayatri Mantra,
Pata hai kyun? Kyunki wo bhi yehi kehte hai...
"Dhiyo yo naa Prachodayat"
Meri buddhi ko Prachodan kare....! Ye dhyan se hi hoga
Ab dekhe Aapne 22min dhyaan kiya, aisa lagaa kyaa?
Kitne logo ko aisa nhi laga?haath uthana!
Hum kehte aree mann bhatakta hai, mann idhar udhar bhatakta hai..kaise jaayega? Usko bithane ka tarika jaan na chahiye,skill chahiye,yukti pata chal jaaye toh mann aaram se beth jaata hai!
Isse jeevan main bahut adheek kaabh hota hai...!
Muje pata hain ki maccchar ki bahut samasya hai...
Hai naa.. macchar ko bahut irshaa hoti kehte koyi dhyan kare toh !
Fallen yogi hai, bhrast yogi hai, dusro ko dhyan nhi krne dete(laughter)
Iske bawjut bhi hum chodte nahi...Dhyan karna hai!
Gaan , Gyan aur Dhyaan!
Gyaan ko bhi hume lete aana chahiye...kbhi ye nhi samajna hum sikh chuke !
Jeevan mai parivartan ki bahut gunjaesh hai!
Har vyakti...
Parivatansheel Jeevan hi jine layak hai!
Aap apne hi jeevan ko ek nazar se dekho, drashti daalo,
Aap jeevan main kitna gyan liya hai.. , aur kitna prem diye ho
Hum marenge na jab, sab marte hai naa? sablog marenge na? Ek na ek din marenge hi,
Tab ek hi Prashna saamne aayega
Kitna Gyaan liya aur , kitna Prem diyaa?
Hum Is daud main rehte hai ki humko kitna prem milta hai aur kitna gyaan denge dusro ko ;)
Ye dukh ka rasta ha,harek dusro ko Salaah dene main maahir hai sab!
Dusro ko salah dene main hum aage badh jaate, unko chahiye nhi chahiye hum dene lagte hai,
Yeh nahi chalega :D ,
Hum kitna gyaan lete hain, aur kitna prem denge...Hmmm..theek h naa
Main Doctors se anurodh karta,
Aaplog hygiene ka lesson dijiye har mohale main jaake!
Karenge !
Einstein jaise vyagnik ne kaha,
Geeta padhne se mera jindagi badal gayi!
Hum Bharatvashi, hum Issi pradesh main jo Geeta ka udgam sthan hai,agar wahan na padhe?Sirf 700shlok hai, ek saral anuvaad ko le ke ek baar padh lo naa.. karenge naa?kitne log karenge?
Ek baar padhlo isme sabke baare main hai,
Bhojan ke, jeevan ke , sangharsh ko hum kaise nibhaye in sabke baare main bataya hai!
Bahut faida hoga isse!
Gaan,Gyaan aur Dhyaan ye teeno humare jivsn main aana chahiye, Fir kya bas itnaa hi kaafi gai?
Fir Ussse karma main utarna chahiye!sabko kaam main lagna chahiye...
Kyaa Kaam karoge?
Gyaan se aur dhyaan se andar ki safai hui,
Aur bahar bhi hume safai karna chahiye,
Humara Ghar ki safai rakhni chahiye....
Kitne log apne ghar ke wash basin bhi roj saaf nahi rakhte, sach bolo... diwali ho, koyi tyohaar ho tab safai main lag jaate hain!!
?...Ayurveda ke nushke hain usme...
Achha kitne log roj haldi prayog karte hai gharon main(kareeb kareeb sab)
Magar aapko ye pata nahi hai,Haldi main 19 life saving drugs kaa gun usme chippa hua hai..kitne logo ko nhi pata ? Haath uthana!
Kitne logo ko viral fever hua hai, Haath uthana
aapko pata hai haldi is anti-Viral hain..kitne logo ko nhi pata tha... Haath uthana
Main baar baar haath uthva raha hun, kbhi kbhi pravachano main neend aa jaati hai..
Kacha haldi hai na, jisse achhar banate hai Nimbu daalke kaccha haldi aur adrak use karte hai naa
Anti inflammatory hai, blood thinner hai..
Heart problem hai doctor bolte hai,nhi haldi lo..
Anti Cholesterol hai!
Aur kehte hain, anti-Ageing Hai...
Humare purvajo itne buddhimann the , haldi ko itni vishesta di gayi hai,pehle haldi kharido, chahe
Shaadi ho ,naya kapda kharide, naya kaapda kharredo
Humari daadi jab bhi naya kapda lete the pehle bolti thi haldi lagao, fir pehne ne deti thi, hume lagta tha ki naya kapda liya usme kyun haldi lagaye? Ab samajne aata hai, kyun itni visheshta di gayi hai
Roj ek Ghantq dijiye desh ke liye,
Jaise shaniwaar , itwar milke 7ghante dijiye, dekhiye
Kitna badhiya kaam ho sakta hai!!
Bhaarat duniya main Gyaan ka capital hona chahiye,
Prem ka capital hona chahiye, adhyatma ka aur maanviya mulyo ka capital hona chahiye,
Aur pata hai kyaa, cancer aur diabetes ka capital maana jaayega aisa doctors ka maan na hai
haldi is anti ageing, anti oxidant, haldi ko apne ghar mein ache se upyog kare. Kacha haldi mein aur jyada gunn hain. Aise tulsi, jin jinko humne pavitra mana hai ya devi ka vaas mana hai wo sab jeevan dayi hai
Neem bhi, nimbu bhi. In sabko prayog karna hai
Roj ek ghanta desh k liye hum dein. Nasha aur sharab rokna hai. Ye ek baat hai. Yaha jitne bhi yuva hain shaadi nahi hui hai main kahunga ki apki shaadi mein sharab nahi batni chahiye. Arey hosh k saath utsav manao bhai. Behoshi logo ko karke tum kya shaadi karna chahte ho? Sabko behoshi mein kyo lejana. Waise mast karen
Mahilaye asurakshit hain sharab ki wajeh se. Hum Tihar jail gae. Waha pata chala jo 98% apradh hua hai mahilaye k... wo sab nashe k orrr mein aake hua hai. Isliye shaadi mein sharab band karne ka sankalp hum sab logo ko lena chhahiye. Bhaye yaha to khushi mein bhi peetey hain gum mein bhi peetey hain. Koi election mein jeet jata hai to bhi sharab peetey hain koi haar jata hai to bhi peetay hain. Kisika bday ho to sharab peetay hain. Koi mar gaya to uske gum mein gum ko bhulaane k liye sharab peetey hain
Ye pratha humein band karna padega. To ek ek ghanta desh k liye aap rakho. Hum log groups mein sab log seva kaam mein lag jaein. Gaziabad cancer, diabities aur apraadh se mukt hojae. Koi aur nahi kar sakta isko, humko karna padega. Karenge?
Yaha k saansad bhi baithein hain, yaha k vidhayak ji bhi baithein hain, yaha k sant bhi baithein hain. In sab k saamne aapne aaj liya pratigya hum sab log ek ek ghantey desh k liye denge
?...Aur Hinsa se mukta reh sakte hai,
Jo sun ne main aa raha hai yahan hinsa badh gayi hai..
Us hinsa par kabu karne ke liye hum sabko kaam karna hoga..
Maanviyata, apnapan badhana hoga
Hinsa ka main do hi karan samajta hun-
Galat faimi, Dusra Asurakshita
Yaa teesra yeh keh sakte, koyi vyakti
Ghaav se pidit hai,gehri thesh pahuncha hain usko!
Ghaav par malam patti lagana padega..
Usike liye Gaan , gyaan aur dhyaan kaam aayega
Toh seva ke prakalp main yadi jud jaayenge toh bahut fark aane lagega...
Kitne lawyers hain yahan par, mainAap logo se anurodh karta hun, asp saal main 3free case lijiye, bilkul gareeb logo kaa case lijiye,Unko nishulk case le lenaa...
Aise kitne school yaa college teachers hai,
Aap se anurodh karunga, ki aap log kuch baccho ko Free tution dijiye,
Jo pratibhawan hai magar jo afford nhi kar sakte, unko ek ghante dijiye, do ghante dijiye...ye toh aap kar hi sakte hai naa?
Gyaan se kabhi duur nahi rehna. Gyaan ko jeevan mein utaarna chahiye. Main beech beech mein deta rehta hu 2-3 din mein twitter k zariye. Aap likh lijiye @SriSri. Twitter mein is account mein add kar lena. Ek aur akhiri baat mein kehna chahunga apko. Apne to akhbar mein padha bhi hoga dekha bhi hoga. Hum Iraq gae they. Logo ne kaha waha kyo jaa rahe ho? Waha sab jagah bomb. Jidhar bhi mudd k dekjo waha udhar bomb. Udhar to duaa niklegi nahi. Humne kaha geeta to upji yudh bhoomi mein. Shaanti ka sandesh bhi jaha sab shaant hain waha dene ji jarurat nahi, jaha ladai ho rahi hai waha jaruray hai
Baech rahe hain. 10-10 dollar mein un mahilao ki bikri kar rahein hain un jan jaati ki mahilao ko. Main bohit gar se kahunga aone volunteers itna unhone dhaerye se, nidarr hoke is kaam mein utre. Un ladkio ko bachaya, waha kaam kia. Jitna bhi kaho wo kaafi nahi hai. Inki bahaduri aur in volunteers anukampa, karuna sach much mein sarahniye hai

SRI SRI AT DELHI
Gurudev TODAY @ DELHI 29/11/14
Jinke parents is path par nahi hain, knowledge me nahin hain, apne parents ke guru bano.
Prem se skillfully unko is paath par lao. Lado mat. Ladna bahut asaan hota hai.
Guruji narrated story of shiva's son kartikeya. He was sent to lord brahma to learn frm him. Kartikeya asked him meaning of 'om'. Brahma only knew 'aaaa' sound. So he sent back kartikeya to shiva as he did not know the meaning of om and so he could not be his guru. Similarly lord vishnu knew only 'uuuu' sound. And lord shiva only knew 'mmmm'. Kartikeya then asked shiva to keep him on his shoulders n then he whispered the meaning of om in his ears. Thus he became shiva's guru.
Guruji said apne parents ke guru bano, skillfully is paath par lao like kartikeya
Guruji today at Delhi
Woh gyaan hi kya Jo jeevan Mein jwala na layein
Woh bhakti hi kya Jo aankhon Mein aasoo nahi layein
Woh Buddhi hi kya Jo buddhi sein parey nahi jayein
Guruji today at Delhi
SRI SRI AT GERMAN EMBASSY
Gurudev at GERMAN EMBASSY Yesterday 28/11/14
GURUDEV @ GERMAN EMBASSY
Life need to be with a Rational touch/pitch and with a Spiritual touch !
We convey lot through our vibes more than words!
Its our Vibes, that which improves our vibes Is what I would call Spiritual wisdom!
Anything that uplifts our Spirit, makes us feel happy from Inside thats Spiritual touch!
Are you all here?(Yes)
Do u notice wat is happening in the mind right now?
Says what next? What Next!
There is an Eagerness To Know what Next !
This is a Unique quality of Human Beings!
The Spirit of Enquiry!
The Spirit to know More!
A Scientist says, this starts time down by 45-50yrs!
And thn we get into a sort of routine slumber!
As Children when we are gone, the 1st thing thatt evoked us, that touched us is the Emotion....Connection!
We were Emotionally connected ! And by age of 3 we started wid dis spirit of Enquiry wat is dis? Wat is dat? And kept pestering our Dad and mom,
Why sky is blue, why dis is dat way?
You know we kept throwing questions when the intellect started toning in or started maturing!
And then the culmination of Intellect is awareness!
Is to be aware or that which u call mindfullness or meditative state!
Some people think that #Meditation means Anti-Rational!
I would say No, If u are Irrational you cant even Meditate
Meditation and Spirituallity is a combination of Rational thinking!
So Rational thinking should be promoted to fullest, at the same Time We must also enrich the emotional Intellect of every human being
American psychological association has published a paper in last week or so, they say, The anxiety level of students today as same as those in assylums in 1940s
I usually say Dont worry! But If you have to worry ! Worry about Big things ! Worry about Wat is Happening in World!
Wats Happening in #Iraq !
Its Unbelievable!
And what u see there, it tears ur Heart!
Its so painfull to see that this things happen today in 21st century!Especially with women&Kids!
But at the same Time there is Hope,
It had kindled Love and compassion in Hearts of millions of people
There is fear and mistrust among Communities,
We have started seminars to building the bridges back!
Scars are so deep in hearts&minds and needs to be healed!
Main Problem is lack of education in universal nature of human beings,its an Identity Crisis!!
First formost Part of our Identity should be,
That we are part of one Light, one Living being!
And 2nd should be We are Human beings!
Third could be I am Male or female,
Fourth should be country I belong too Nationality
5th could be This religion or that religion
But when this identity gets reversed,
1st and foremost I identify with the religion or language
That gives rise to the blindness that is the cause of all catastrophes!
In the recorded human history,
The world has been peacefull only for 268yrs
That is only 8% of d time! Just imagine!
No where neither at school or at college teaches us how to make more friends, how to be friendly, how to have sense of belongingness, how to feel urself part of something in which u havent grown, in which u are not brought up!
Is it possible, this questions u need to ask, especially in schools and colleges, we need to create that atmosphere of Togetherness of belongingness!
Do u agree with me?(yess from crowd)
Yes?
See boy or girls, grows up with, goes to school with 50-60students!
U ask them how many friends they have!
U ask any high school boy or Girl, how many friends u have,
They will count in finger 2,3,4,5..!
Ask a question to them hey come on,
If u cant be friendly with 50 kids , how can u be friendly with 7 billion ppl when u comeout of this school!
I started dis programme with 7Golden Rules,
One of the rules i would ask is Make 1 new friend everyday, that will make ur personality glow, ur personality very friendly, ur personality expand,
Jst go and say hello to someone u don't know!
And I tell u, this has worked wonders..
Otherwise we see these days, in class rooms, there is violence in schools, there are incidences, and parents dont feel very safe sending there kids to school,
And often school teachers are depressed coz they find classroom atmosphere is so hostile!
We need to inculcate human values back into the society!
Infuse it.. that with which we were all born with! Friendliness, basic human values!
In India,We have always thought of "One world family"-Vasudhaiv kutumbakam , Saw the whole world as one family!so even now all journalists ask me, why you went to Iraq at this time, I said when we have been saying, one world family
We have to walk the talk, it cannot be just dry philosophy, it has to be a part of our lives and it is ! So how can we not feel for people who are suffering in any part of the world,
It is just human! And that is the reason why Germany, france, italy, England, America, every country is taking interest in all
the '______' zones,
Ofcourse its little far away for India to reach there, but there is sumthing India can do, that is bring them the wisdom of uniting hearts and minds,
Material comfort anybody can provide, but
To unite ppl's hearts and minds, it needs certain skills!
Certain wisdom which I would call spiritual values or human values,
So that is there here in India, so I thought we should bring it back,Infact when we spoke to the PM of kurdistan and Iraq..
I said, what is it that u xpect from India?
They said 3 things,
1 is The Art of Living in Diversity which India has mastered
People of so many different languages, dilects, religions, they all live together in harmony,
We need this Art, this education to our youths!
2nd We want IT education, India is known for its IT education and we need our youths to be trained in IT
3rd thing Its not so imp, we would like Indian business man to come and invest and take care of oil here,
But first and foremost they said is of spiritual wisdom is what we expect from India! Thats most priority!
The way to relieve stress and tension that everyone must learn, As I told today we convey a lot through our vibes than words! I can standup here and talk about love for 2hrs but the little dog in ur house in just 30secs, a baby just looking into ur eyes will convey wat love is!
So, we havent learnt neither at school nor at college,
How to improve our vibes, how to radiate that friendly atmosphere around us, and there are techniques like
Yoga, meditation and breathing,
Engaging in service activities, all these would help to cleanse and bring our mind to present moment!
In present moment !
And we have positive vibes that emit around us,& this is what I would call as spirituality,
Anything that send positive vibes around u, which brings back the hope and which can put the smiles back on all those teary faces,& this is possible when we tap into our true resources which is deep within us!
In Germany there is story of "________",
Some people they built a home and forgot to keep a windows
& there were no windows , then they were all sitting outside with a Gunny bag and baskets and catching sunlights,
Someone asked wat are you doing?
They said,We are taking sunlights inside, coz thrs no sunlight inside! So these little stories convey a lot to us,
That our forefathers weather in India, or Germany or France,Italy or south America, They all had wisdom!
They all spoke something from their life experiences,
This is as simple as it, u don't have to bring sunlight,
U can't catch sunlight and bring it to the room,
U simply have to open the windows , U cant be closed,
U cant leave in a shell which has no windows,
And in today's generation seem to be living ,
They are living in small shells, without looking out,
We dont Know how to look In and even look out !
And this education is very imp!
Wat do you think? Do u agree with me!!
Today the technology has made the world shrunk into a village & it is Spirituality that is Going to make it into a family!
We all need to feel, we are all one family,
We are part of one human race!
That togetherness, that emotional enrichment in each one of our lives will keep away depression,which is going to be the biggest killer in coming 20yrs, WHO has already given the report, the biggest killer in world would be depression,
Depression is because there is lack of connectivity,
There is lack of emotional connection !
Living a dry life just with formalities, leads into depression!
What do u say? Yaa! We need to wakeup nd take a call on dis and its wonderful that a birthday celebrated in this manner, bringing every1 together , beautiful singing and thinking of the vital aspects of life
In Indian languages, In Sanskrit, birthday is called Vardhanti, U know wat is meaning of vardhanti?
Many Indians may also not know wat is vardhanti!
Vardhanti means Exponential Growth!
We have outgrown the time, another name for it is
Jayanti, (one person sitting here's name is jayanti;) laughter) That is victorious , u have been victorius over time, time is trying to eat ur enthusiasm and you are not allowing that to happen, you are keeping ur enthusiasm and moving ahead..Time is like Death! But wen you win over the time, I.e. you successfully maintained all those things that you are born with,- i.e.Joy, Enthusiasm, Love, compassion, sense of oneness with everybody around you!
A child possesses all these qualities,
A baby smiles 400 times a day, and adolescent only 17 times and adult doesn't smile do often!
As a baby we were smiling so often, what happened?
U see the joy in faces of kids wjen they are going to school,
And then in high school, is it increasing or reducing?
And then u see when they are coming out of college,
Are they really bubbling out with enthusiasm?
No.....The cloud of worry has already descended on them!
And then anyone who takes some responsible position,
See how they get pout down by worries!
But is there anything that can lift this up and make u shine and mke u smile like a child again? Then Taht is real growth! That is jayanti! So every birthday one is reminded that Look-you have won over the time, you have crossed one more year, you are not going close to death but you are going towards immortality!
You will be Remembered forever , for what you are!
So jayanti, like Gandhi jayanti is celebrated every year!
Jayanti means Victory! And culmination of victory,
For victory also U need some opposing force to fight!
But Jayanti is there is no oppsition , winning without n opposition, or a victory without conflict, without struggle and thats wat birthday is all about!
U see on the birthday one remembers that,
I am not just the body!
I m the spirit, lively spirit!
Which is made up of Love, compassion, enthusiasm and enormous energy!
U know, like the wave remembers , I m the ocean..
And then the wave gains the strength of the ocean!
Of course here in India we believe in Reincarnation,
That is we have been here many times and we will be here many more times as well!
So we are part of an ocean of existence from which we have come, and birthdays are celebrated for the wave to remember its origin, I.e. ocean!! So once again
A very Happy Birthday...Look at the child like smile in both of them! Thats really inspiring!
The older we get, we need to be more content and Satisfied!!! At the same time be very Dynamic!
And wish once again a very happy birthday, more
Contentment and more action as the days come!
Do we have questions? We will take that!
So are you all happy?(Yesss frm crowd and cheers and claps)
Guruji, how to handle negative people around you?
wish good for them, let them get over negativity as soon as they can..I think that’s the best way to deal with them. suppose you were so negative and you didn’t even realise that..now you have a chance and they teach you what you should not be doing..so you should thank them. people who are -ve.There’s a proverb that says that Salute the wicked ones, then the good ones..He is teaching u a lesson by falling into a pit and warning you, that don’t do what i have done..Next….
what is the question that I need to ask?
Who am I?need to keep asking it and whatever answer you get, just reject them..none of them is correct. (claps and cheers!)..and when u get the correct answer, there will be no more questions (more claps!).
what is the real purpose of life?
one who knows will not tell you, and the one who tells who will not know..this very question is a driving force is a vehicle which teaches you ..
Q, Guruji , there has been a huge network of united nation..UN has not led to peace and harmony among nations?
Atleast there have been efforts..There are a quite a few inter-peace dialogues happening in almost every corner of the world..dialogues happening even bahrain but they are not quite enough..
I am an Indian and have come after 25 years. how do we balance the concept of soul...how do we see oneness in everybody? …(Something something- not clear)
G: what is your question?? (laughter!!)
G prompts: Is there an individual soul?
You have a television at home? Yes?! you have many channels..each channel has a particular vibration..thats an individual soul and the electricity through which television works is the big mind, or big soul. so the big electricity has specific wavelengths..did i answer your ques?
What is that thing that separates us from each other..from your travels across the world, what do u think is one element from your experience which nevertheless binds us together and brings us together?
Love…
Im from Europe in western philosophy, famous sentence in latin wisdom..man is wolf to the other’..can you please elaborate on that?
Many of these sentences and wisdom have come with time and experience..they belong to a time when man was an enemy to man,,so it is correct in a way that only man is destroying mankind...animals are not coming and destroying or harming mankind..wars are between man..without wisdom..without sense of compassion.that’s correct..
I must mention that 3 yrs back I got to travel in a flight from frankfurt to india ...I want to now what is the most vital thing to balance our inner and outer worlds…
u’know when u are losing balance something pinches you..just be aware of that, that alone is good enough..if u are too much self centred, and if u care not caring for your family and are only doing social service, you feel a pinch.pinch is what brings u back into balance..best is not to justify the pinch…
namaskar,Guruji,I am pearl… i know little about spirituality..when we try and apply at home is possible ..at work it gets so complicated..Sometimes i get forced to tell lies, and this makes you not fully practice your faith and knowing......then you have to manipulate also...etc.
tell me how many times u said lies and got caught? when you lie, you feel so nervous..they can make out by your body language and other things..why do we even try that then? if it doesn’t work then why to do it?..sometimes we are brought in a situation that we cannot lie..So just be natural..even after lying we are not in a good situation..just be in your element...So in a workplace, just be spontaneous..I’ll say just three things,one is clarity in mind, purity in heart, and sincerity in action…
Kaju katli of India and speciality of Germany -many things..
at the same time, there is uniqueness also..same material..same sugar and almonds..we put a little silver on it..and even they in Germany pack it so nicely..
My question is about expectations..we have a lot of expectations from other people and vice versa..half the time in life is going in fulfiling each other’s expectations..please guide..what to do?
see you do what you can do...if something expects something from you that you cannot fulfill, then only smile and ask for forgiveness..then you can only say sorry...c’mon how can you feel guilty? if u are not a doctor, and they exp you to treat them, how can i treat you my dear? So nothing emotional by it...Keep clarity in mind and purity in heart..then sincerity of action will follow..you’ll do the best thing then.
Guruji i met u in Kashmir..you told me that time that whenever there is a problem, you can give it to me anytime anywhere..(something) Are you angry with me?
Not at all. It’s not easy to win my anger...just be relaxed..you write to me about any problem..no problem!!
Guruji, all over there are so many conflicts...anxiety and tension..many of them have been genesis in misrepresentation of religion and faith..would u like to consider any event under your guidance ?
we have been doing that all time. and are lways committed to bring ppl together..
During the talk, emphasis was on universal human values..in the present era, we have educated ppl but it seems they have lost sight..so can we have ppl accountable and what are the best means or methods to inculcate human values...Can moral science education can focus on this?
Its personality development that will make you free from fear...and then u’ll be honest..to yourself and others..
See.I cannot reduce your fat, reduce your carb intake then, that’s for you to do...similarly, you’ll find, i’ll give you another example - suppose it’s raining.. rain s destiny but to get wet is free will..
I am Seema, a social worker and do a lot of work outside my house.Sometimes, I get v rude to my workers and helpers at home and that leaves me with a lot of guilt..
U know priorities are always linked with time..you can’t fix priorities with time..if someone is sick at home and if you have to take care of someone else outside, then your priority is misplaced. it’s with saturation of time..you don’t need to feel guilty as long as you are able to balance both..if not one time, you should be able to compensate another time..
I am a student and I don’t know how I will turn out in future..Guruji, how do u remember your childhood, your adoloscence and your youth?
I think my youth is not gone, it’s still there.. (claps!)
I’m still a child..as a student, I would tell you - dream bigger..just have big dreams and stick to it..work towards it..
Are past karmas more important or our present life karmas?
See, life is a combination of both free will and destiny..I’ll share an example, your height does not alter after 21 years...no? See this is karma..this is destiny but your weight ,you an increase or decrease anytime u want..so your weight is free will and your height is your destiny..(laughter!)
Q.My name is sonal. I have been pursuing spirituality and I realise that till 10th standard, there was an inner voice and then in college i became rebellious..(G interrupts saying I got it!)
See, its better not to follow such things since it is very vague..you speak to our teachers here, they’ll say it can lead to delusion also so don’t pay too much attention to it..Sometimes, your own desires come to you as voice. So go with your rational mind...your own intuition will rise when you meditate more! Should we do a short meditation of 10 mins?? Yes…
Bhopal Gas tragedy completes 30 yrs..how to help those victims?

Q: What is stress, and when do we experience it?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: When we have too much to do in very little time, and when we feel that we do not have the energy to achieve it all, then that is when we feel stressed

Q: Can you please speak about the Manusmriti (Meaning “Laws of Manu”, referring to a text that expounds the code of laws & Dharma that should govern an individual and the society)? Is it relevant today?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: See, Manusmriti was written by a king called Manu. He was a very wise king. A few lines in the Manusmriti which talk about how women should always be protected or a little bit about caste system; these have been misinterpreted. I would say they might be interpolated (meaning: stretched too far). But this is not a scripture of the rishis. It is by a king, so it is like a Constitution. That is all. So the Manusmriti is not an authority for the Sanatan Dharma (Vedic name for Hindu Religion). We do not need to follow it. It is like a Constitution. Like the Indian Constitution, the people in those days also made certain rules. So at that time Manu made certain rules. But it is not a universal scripture and it is not necessary for everybody to follow. It is not applicable for everyone everywhere and for all times. It is not so at all.
But there are some very good things also mentioned in the Manusmriti. It has very good knowledge. So you should take that which is relevant today and leave the rest. Our people have been following this in our country. You should always look at all the scriptures in the world with reason, with wisdom. This is what scriptures also say. They say that you should keep the Desha (country or place) and the Kaala (time) in mind when you apply knowledge or a particular scripture. This is important. Why are there so many problems in the world today? It is because some people want to implement those scriptures today which are 2000 years old or maybe 1400 years old. But they are not applicable today at all. This is the whole problem in the Middle East. Some people want to impose those rules which are not applicable for today’s time. It had relevance at that time but they are no longer relevant.
DAILY SUTRA
If you keep doing your practices, meditation, satsang and service, you can make yourself feel comfortable in any place. We should not have aversion or craving towards anything. That is real Yoga. - Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
GURU PUNCH
We see everyone in society with an eye of suspicion. When we do not want people to see us with suspicion or doubt, then we also should not see them in the same way. - Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
KNOWLEDGE SHEET ( NARAYAN)
Narayan-
Narayan means what? That energy which is present in all the nervous systems, in all of creation. Anything that sparkles in living beings is called Narayan.
The word 'nervous system' comes from the Sanskrit word 'Nara', which also means 'human beings'.
Narayan means that which is housed in the beautiful and amazing nervous system. Just imagine a human being without a nervous system, he will not be alive. It is because of your nervous system that you are able to express yourself. That energy which perceives and which expresses in the whole universe is Narayan.
SUDARSHAN KRIYA
Medical findings about the SUDARSHAN KRIYA :
A world conference on science, consciousness and spirituality held in New Delhi noted the key findings of research conducted on the Sudarshan Kriya . Below is a simplified synopsis:
1. Less depression, more elation
Dr Richard Brown from the USA has postulated that Kriya contributes to a state of alert calmness through its effect on the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve is crucial in social bonding, empathy and love; it is the centre of our gut instincts and is crucial to our ability to perceive, observe and make complex decisions. Impaired vagal activity is found in people with depression, anxiety, panic disorders, irritable bowel syndrome, violent adults, post traumatic stress disorder, early Alzheimer’s and obesity.
2. Sleep like a baby
`Stephen Porges suggested that the different rhythms of breath in Kriya stimulates different fibers of the vagus nerve. This makes SKY unique and likely to have a much wider range of effects. Interestingly, brain wave rhythms during and after Kriya are similar to those of babies.
3. Think Positive
Dr Fahri Saatcioglu from Oslo did a 6-week study on the effect of Kriya on the relaxation response and feeling of wellness on 109 subjects. 56 of them went through the Art of Living course and performed Kriya daily for 6 weeks. The other 53 relaxed in an armchair for 15 minutes daily for the same period. 6 weeks later, a significant increase in the experience of wellness in the Kriya group was noted as compared to the ‘armchair’ group. There was a sharp decrease in anxiety, depression and stress and a marked increase in optimistic thinking in the Kriya group.
4. Live longer
Dr Neeta Singh from New Delhi studied the effects of Kriya on the genes that affect stress related pathways of the human body. She found an increase in vital antioxidant enzymes that are responsible for a longer life span and better protection against cancer.
5. Healthy heart, skin and blood pressure
Dr Stephen Larsen from the USA studied neurophysiological responses before, during and after Kriya. The tests run were EEG (recorded at 19 cortical sites), EKG, heart rate variability, galvanic skin response, hand skin temperature, pulse plethysmography and blood pressure. He found that Kriya practices produced significant changes in ALL physiological measures. It appears that over a period of time, the practitioner’s health becomes more robust, flexible and able to deal with the challenges of stress. This explains why regular practice of Kriya is very important.
6. Decreased work-related stress
Dr Vedamurthachar from Bangalore studied the effect of the AOL Course on occupational stress and anxiety among 60 software engineers. At the end of a month, the 30 engineers who took the AOL course showed a sharp reduction in anxiety and improvement in stress coping skills as compared with the 30 controls.
7. SKY and vegetarian meals for good health
E G Lyulyakina from Russia studied the oral micro flora of SKY practitioners. She found that the number of microorganisms in lacto vegetarians were 2-3 times less than that in ‘non strict’ vegetarians. She concluded that practice of Kriya and a vegetarian diet reduces the microbial content of the mouth.
8. Fight Cholesterol
Dr Chiplonkar from Pune studied the lifestyle, behavioral and health aspects of 105 adults before and after undergoing the part I Art of Living Course. She found that majority of micronutrients showed a positive correlation with sattvic foods. After the practice of Kriya for 2 months, she found a significant reduction in anxiety, sharp increase in antioxidant capacity, reduction in triglycerides and a marginal reduction in oxidative stress.
9. Beneficial for cancer patients
Arielle Warner in USA studied the psycho spiritual benefits of Kriya were studied in women diagnosed with breast cancer. The subjects were evaluated 2 weeks before the Art of Living Course, 8 days after the Course and after 5 weeks of regular practice. A significant improvement in quality of life, spiritual well being, positive states of mind and perceived stress was observed after the AOL course and was maintained 5 weeks later.
10. SKY rules over other similar yoga tools
Dr Janis Carter from Australia compared the effects of different modalities like Iyengar and Desikachar yoga, Qi Gong, Sudarshan Kriya Yoga and a multicomponent yoga intervention (MCYI) in treating Australian Vietnam war veterans with long standing Post traumatic Stress disorder. She found that the interventions that used many tools of yoga viz. Sudarshan Kriya and MCYI showed the greatest efficacy.
11. Psychoanalytical healing
Dr Patricia Gerberg from USA discussed the effects of doing the Art of Living Kriya program in a patient undergoing psychoanalysis since a long time. She found Kriya useful in healing negative past impressions and the `dissociation’ that rendered the patient unable to connect with others and with his own feelings

Q: In what form are demons present in this day and age?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: Those who leave humanity and terrorize people, they are the demons

{KNOWLEDGE SHEET} SUBJECT : FASTING
Fasting Scientifically-
Fasting and prayers are somehow connected. In almost every religion and every tradition of the world they have connected fasting and prayer together.
When you fast you are not pleasing some god out there by your fasting. It simply helps to detox your body. When the body gets detoxified then thoughts become positive. When there are too many toxins in the body, and the pancreas, liver and intestine are all congested then your thoughts are all negative and unclear. So fasting is done to have that cleansing effect on your body, not to please a god.
Fasting also has some rules, but people don’t follow even the fasting rule properly. People think fasting means that they can eat certain things and cannot eat certain things. You can eat lots of nuts and fruits but not eat cooked food, or rice, or bread. This is not fasting.
Someday people eat boiled potatoes and sweets and say they are fasting. They are fooling themselves. And sometimes, some people who want to fast all day get up before sunrise and stuff themselves with food. Then they fast and as soon as the sun sets, again they stuff themselves. It is a very bad way of fasting.
Fasting has to happen scientifically. Fast with juice and water, some fruits so that the enzymes are generated in the body. The indigested food gets digested. It is very bad eating very late in night on fasting days because your digestive fire is not there to digest that food. So you should not do that.
People fast in an unscientific manner. Fasting should be rational. Almost in every tradition people fast this way – Jews, Christians, Muslims, Hindus – they all should know the scientific way of fasting.
The Ayurvedic way of fasting is very clearly mentioned. Little bit of fruits, juices, water and lemon. And if your endurance is there then fast just on water, one or two days. This is what we need to educate people.
Even during the month of Ramadan, they fast whole day, the pitta rises, and in the evening they eat so much. This is wrong. In the evening when they eat, they should have salads, fruits, and something light; something that gives rest to the system.
Hindus do fasting during navratri, and they eat jalebis! They eat all the sweets, and boiled potatoes – that is starch! This is not the correct way, there should be only fruits and fruit juices.
When you fast you are not pleasing some god out there by your fasting. It simply helps to detox your body. When the body gets detoxified then thoughts become positive. When there are too many toxins in the body, and the pancreas, liver and intestine are all congested then your thoughts are all negative and unclear. So fasting is done to have that cleansing effect on your body, not to please a god.

Q: What is the significance of applying tilak on the forehead (referring to the portion of the forehead between the eyebrows)? What does it represent? Married women in our country also apply the tilak. What is the reason behind it?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: The third eye is present there (referring to the center associated with alertness or awareness). So there is a custom of applying sandal paste or other things at the location of pineal and pituitary glands which have a great effect on our body and mind. One reason for applying the paste is to give respect to that portion of the forehead. It stimulates our attention.
Whenever you think, what do you do? Your hand automatically goes at this place. When you make a mistake, your hand goes at the head. When you think or deeply ponder over something or some problem comes then too you keep your hand like this. If you go to any country or any corner of the world, you find that everywhere people think like this. This is the seat of wisdom. It is the peetha (seat) of knowledge. That is why chandan (sandal paste), kumkum or sindoor (vermillion powder) is applied there. It is symbolic.
