Chaitanya Mahotasav 2013 -Kutchh Last day Discourse

師父醍醐灌頂的話語，當頭棒喝，我生活的最佳心靈藥方。感恩。

 

My Salutations to all pious souls,

I'm going to start today's program with the true incident which took place with me. During my spiritual practice, I had to go to many places and to stay at many places. I stayed at one of those places and there I noticed that a temple's construction was incomplete. When I asked the reason, why the temple's work was incomplete, I came to know that a war took  place there between to tribes, and that resulted in the death of both the families of the tribes, both used to kill the family members of each other. This was happening since generations. I contacted both the tribes and their heads (leader). I brought them in meditation slowly. There is one speciality in these tribes. If tribal leader agrees with something, then the whole tribe would agree the same. So as the tribal leaders joined the meditation, the whole tribe joined the meditation. And there was a beautiful scene at the time of doing statue's abhishek. One leader was standing, holding the statue and another was doing abhishek on the statue. The big change came to the lives of both the leaders because they were able to merge themselves with me. I had a similar feelings towards both of them. They got the same states, same feelings, which I had, and the enmity between both the tribes was over. I sometimes remembers this incident of tribes, when the sadhaks hold the grudges towards other sadhaks and leave the meditation. So I compared those sadhaks with these tribal people. Even those tribal people whose war was going on since generations, their enmity was over. And these sadhaks only knew each other since sometime. Now the point is those tribal people who had enmity since generations, they forget their grudges, then you all sadhaks who know each other only since sometimes can't forget your fights? Many a times when I used to organise small programs for the volunteers, I used to explain them about negative points and boundaries of Samarpan Meditation. There are always two sides of coin. For an example say there is strong fort. I gave this example to them as well and, telling you as well. You all are safe in the strong fort. You don't have any danger about anything. You all sadhaks are safe in the fort, living together. I'm standing out with a big army to fight with the enemies. I will protect you from the enemies from outside the fort, and will see that no enemy would attack you  in this fort. So I promise that no one would attack the fort. But I won't be able to save you if you start fighting amongst  yourselves. That means, you would get the protection from outside enemies, but If you fight among yourselves, kill yourselves then do it and have fun in doing that. I can only see you from outside, I can't do anything. Because If I come inside, then outside safety will be in danger. And it what happens that, if there are two sadhaks, then both are strong, both's weapons are sharp, so they can cut each other's neck very easily. We see in so many stories that two people kill each other by attacking each other. So it's same in sadhaks. Sadhaks put their negative attention on other sadhaks and as a result, all the negativity transfers from one sadhak to another, and this makes the state of another sadhaks negative. So when the other sadhak's state becomes negative, his enmity would make the first sadhak's state also negative. They both kill each other. To come out of meditation means to die, the only difference is to die whilst you're alive. I'm saying this in big collectivity, earlier, I used to say in small groups. This apply to small centres, big centres, big cities, happening everywhere, in a small or a big way. So you're making a loss for yourself and others also. And by doing this so many sadhaks have left Samarpan Mediation and they stopped meditation. And if you become a medium of someone leaving the meditation, then you have to understand that he would also become a medium for leaving your meditation, as what you have sown , you will have to reap. If because of you anyone gets hurt, and leaves meditation, then you will have to leave meditation because of him. (And you would feel guilty and you would feel that because of the grudge, I went far from self realisation, and this life was just wasted.) So now you don't get this guilty feeling at the time of your life end. So you try and practice, if you want to make enemies and fight then do it outside the Samarpan group, but not inside the group. Sadhaks needs to be conscious about other sadhaks, because both have powerful chitta. So if it is in centre level, or city level, or country level, if you keep positive collectivity, then both you and other sadhaks would progress. So today before going, you make a desire, that you wouldn't hold the grudge towards anyone. We won't become a medium in any future incident, in which we leave meditation because of someone or someone leaves meditation because of us.  Because by doing this you will occur the sin of making that sadhaks staying away from meditation. That's why, remember the three things in this Chaintanya mahashibir,  First, don't meditate having any wish in your mind. There should be no desire in your mind. Don't keep anything in mind, leave it empty. Do you know why I am saying that you don't keep any desire in mind ? It so happens that when you have any desire, you make your chitta very limited for things you want, you make your chitta small. But when you make yourself free of desires, then your chitta would becomes pure, and you get that state of meditation. Unless your chitta is not pure you will not progress in meditation.  The other thing is mediate regularly, there is no regularity in meditation. Sometimes you meditate, sometimes you don't, sometimes you do it in the morning, and sometimes in the evening, this should not happen. Be regular in meditation.  Even if you meditate for 10 minutes, its fine. Regular meditation is necessary. Generally, if you do, you do it in access and otherwise you don't do it, so it should not happen like this. It's like, when statue is established from the stone which is 80% pure, which means, it is pure 80% from all the four sides and from the middle. It's not like, from one corner is 80% pure and from the other corner is not. Otherwise there won't be any merging. From your life you take out some definite time, you will have to do that. There should be no more or less in that. We all do it for everyone, for our children, for our family, for our society, for our country, for our company (work place), for our community. We take time out for everyone. You rush everywhere and take time out for everything. But we don't do it for ourselves. Spend some time for yourself, with your soul. You will notice that as you start spending your time with your soul, you will realise that your relation has started establishing with your soul, nearness with soul will be created. So as and when you start going near to your soul, you would not do any negative deed. Because, soul never allows you to do any negative deed. It always gives you good guidance, show you good path, gives you good thoughts, good motivation. So that's why biggest GURU is your soul, so make your soul your guru. Make friendship with your soul and all your decisions and all your paths will start becoming right. And when you take right decisions then automatically you will become successful in life. The man who takes right decision, becomes successful. As many right decisions, you would take, you would become that much successful. Take those right decisions in the guidance of your soul. You just try to do it, practice it. It won't happen by itself, you will have to practice it. As and when you start going nearer to your soul, you would start getting, guidance from your soul, and you won't do any wrong deed, because you won't have that wrong energies for doing that wrong deed. You will only do good deeds, always positive deeds. Just practice to do meditation regularly with your own self. Other thing is about collectivity. When we go to the centre and try, then we will be progressing slowly and steadily. It's an upward graph. Sometimes you will feel that since some days progress is not happening. Some will progress slowly, some fast in collectivity, everyone would progress. Secondly you would not realise about your problems and tensions. Like I always give you the example of a spoon full of black ink which you drop it in glass of water, then the whole water would become black, but the same spoon of black ink, if you drop it into river ganga then what would happen? You would not realised where this one spoon ink went away. In the same way, when you merge yourselves with collectivity, then all your problems and tensions would get dissolved in collectivity of millions of people. So make your habit to mediate regularly and collectively, and as a result you would progress in meditation. Now I've separated myself from all the management duties. I don't participate in any arrangements. This would be first deep meditation Anushthan taking place on 13th January 2013 after getting released from all these arrangements. Deep meditation Anushthan would be from 13 January to 27th February. This would be the first deep meditation Anushthan, where I won't have any responsibilities of any management duties. So in social language, I would say that, after getting released from all the arrangement responsibilities, I am going to take a breath of peace. This year was announced as Doctor's year, but the Doctor's  woke up very late so according to their wish 2014 will also be celebrated as Doctor's year. Next Guru Purnima would take place in Vankaner, Morbi which is not Rajkot now, it's changed to Morbi. This is a new change. Now there is a new district called Morbi and Vakaner is in Morbi, so now we would say Morbi and not Rajkot. It was in Rajkot before, now it is in Morbi. So Guru Purnima will take place on 12th, 13th and 14th July in Morbi Ashram. Next program of Deep meditation Anushthan will take place from 13th January '13 in Dandi and would continue uptill 27th February and Mahashivratri celebration will take place in Dandi itself on 27th February. So I have a wish that these three things, which are, first,  try to make your chitta without any expectation. Try to do it yourselves, you will find a good difference. And I am telling you based on my own experience. First you purify your chitta. It what happens that we tie our selves by our expectations and our desires. Just free it. It will start becoming pure as you start empting it. It what happens, that when our chitta is in problem, then we would mediate on those problems, and our half attention would be on meditation and half in problems. But when we divert our chitta from problems, automatically, our attention will go into meditation, you yourself would become strong.  Pray to God, that give me lots of problem, but at the same time, give me the strength that I could face and tackle my problems. Problems are not big. If you make yourselves big, then problems would become small automatically. But what you do is, you make your problems so big, like, o problem, o problem and make yourselves small and as a result the small problem also disturbs you. So now change this. Don't give importance to problems. You will only grow your problems depending on how much you give fertilizer to your problems. Like I would say that your chitta is a fertilizer, if you put in on rose plant, rose plant will grow, If you put it on thorns plant, then thorns plant would grow. So it's in your hands, what you want to grow. So from today onwards don't desire for anything. Do you get  what you want after desiring for that thing? No, you don't. You will only get it according to your state. If you would have got whatever you desired, then the beggar sitting on the street would become a king when he desired, but does this happens? No, it does not. No one becomes king because of his thinking or desiring to become. He becomes king because of his state. Ramu, the beggar became king because of his state. Ramu, the beggar never desired to become a king. So in the same way, even you become Ramu, the beggar, and don't desire to become a king. Just develop that state and become a king. So first thing is meditation without any expectations, you need to do in this Deep Meditation Anushthan. Don't expect anything. Just try to do it for 45 days. Just act to do it, and see what the result comes. If you do the act, then also is fine. There should be no expectations or desires in your mind in these 45 days. Other thing is Meditation should be on regular basis. The importance of these 45 days is, the one who don't meditate regularly, also joins these 45 days. These 45 days are important for the whole organisation. Like in Navratri, the people who eat non-veg and who drinks would also leave these things for 9 days saying Navratri is going on. So they won't have these things and remain pure these days. Just only for 9 days they do this act. Similarly we have some naughty sadhaks, they would think that by meditating on these 45 days, they bathed in river ganga (became pure), dissolved sins. By sitting inside, I come to know everything. It happens that at that time, it's such big collectivity,  even those not meditating also starts meditating. Each and every day of these 45 days is important. In these 45 days those sadhaks also start meditating regularly who don't do it for whole year.  That's why  there is a big collectivity in these 45 days. We don't know about our collectivity. It is spread in so many houses in so many countries, but we are not aware of it. Our numbers are much more than what we think. We become aware in these 45 days. The people who don't meditate regularly also joins these 45 days. So make a schedule for 45 days - First, don't desire for anything, don't expect anything. Second, meditate regularly. By meditating regularly, you would join with all the sadhaks during these 45 days and would be benefited from this collectivity. And third, meditate in collectivity. You can join anywhere- either in centre, or in Ashram for 45 days and mediate regularly. Make small groups. If there are few sadhaks at least make a group of five, you can do that. Even if it is a small group, but meditate in collectivity, there is different benefit of it. You will be benefited from this Deep Meditation Anushthan, when you follow these rules. Just for experimentation purpose, do it for 45 days and see the result. You would see the positive result. What you would get, would be out of your imagination, and also don't expect that something would happen. Leave everything behind and meditate for 45 days. I wish that these 45 days should bring a golden change in your life.

Namaskar
