[Music] [Music] la [Music] mind is like a a monkey our scriptures have said the mind is like a monkey but a monkey which is drunk so now you can add on the stupidity and the craziness of this monkey because it is monkey and drunk and then they say it's not just drunk it has been bitten by a bee also so obviously if a be will bit you you will be jumping with pain rolling on the ground and screaming yelling and panicky so a monkey which is drunk which has been bitten by the be add all these three and add the diseases of the human mind like too many desires too many wishes too many presumptuous um ideas about this person is bad this person is good and the politics and manipulation of this dirty mind so with this kind of worse condition of the Mind do you think so it's possible to do any yogic sad or even if you may think so that I do wish to do it but would it be possible to do it no so unfortunately the scars and the Sam scaras and the Deep Impressions which are subconscious has it it's not because of just one birth it is a some total of millions of bodies maybe as far as the history of the human being if we go into then they say that the homo sapiens happened uh some 880,000 years ago and actually the journey happened uh another 100,000 years ago if in totality they say some 200,000 years ago this journey of humans actually started so just imagine how many how many births might have happened and how many lives and how the mind is carrying forward all the experiences of every life with you so in way if this ja was in some animal bodies then actually has brought those experience to with it so like if somebody is very loud and very rude and is incessantly just talking then at least in Bat they say why are you working like a dog if somebody is very very greedy then somebody might point out why are you sitting on your wealth like a snake because the myth myth is that wherever the treasures would be placed underneath the ground people used to you know that that used to be I think a better idea maybe because when you keep your money and your jewelry in a bank the bank is making its own profit on that so in Old Times people used to dug up um in their backyards or in their farmlands and they would Place their coins and jewelry and just keep it within their own reach and they would uh safely keep it and obviously the snake is always looking for a place which is undisturbed and snake loves being below the ground like many other animals but the serpent became um similar to somebody's greed like a greedy person saves everything and hides everything the snake also loves to be in those dark places so these Proverbs started that why are you greedy like a snake and if somebody is producing too many children then somebody might taunt are you a pig because at one time the Sheep Pig might give birth to 15 to 20 piglets let me say it like this your body has [Music] the genealogy of your great great great great great grandfathers also your all ancestors are there in your body hence the importance of studying the genes of uh um this science is a is a very Advanced these days and in certain places wherever it is possible they can take a sample of your Gene and do the study and let you know whether you have probability of having a cancer or a brain tumor or Alzheimer or Parkinson if you are carrying those genes in you then the possibility of having those diseases are going to be very very on the point of we can say 100% shity the molecular science is basically trying to make itself so Advanced that what disease might happen like 20 years in future they might be able to treat right now and you might never have it that's the biggest dream of the medical scientific fraternity so if a body has such a intelligence interwoven into its cells and molecules your mind is more ancient this body is too new 22 right if age is 22 if age is 50 but can you say your mind is 22 years old no otherwise born in Europe in a family in a country where mostly people are non-believers and here you are in Bat trying to seek truth trying to seek a meaning to your life s I won't say that this is something which started in this particular um life it's not possible it's something which you had been doing in the past that is now getting carried on now mind is going to carry good and bad all stuff whether it is jump piness anger ambitiousness stupidity foolishness or kindhearted like I have seen if people have a bad mind they might renounce the society and become a Swami or a sadhu but their manipulative mind is still working if they were in habit of lying and they are not being sincere to thems so they might be living in a asham or in a cave but if they have this it of backbiting of gossiping of speaking a lie they will be still doing it which hence proves that just by changing the color of your clothes your mind doesn't changes and sometimes when you have a title of being a sadu you have a further certification to have a bigger ego now and actually these people become totally hopeless and I say they are helpless because they are being victim of their own mind so mind has so much of reservoir of bad samsaras in it that it shapes up your choices and likes and dislikes and it makes you do certain things that the problem is this that when people lie they don't think they are doing something bad they say we were trying to save oursel from the punishment or from embarrassment which might would have have happened because I I didn't do my homework or I didn't do my job so in office spaces people are killing their Granny's and um relatives and so many oh oh that person died that's why I never came office or my aunt has a cancer and I had to see her in the hospital and so going and coming back it took 6 days so that's why I was in emergency I couldn't inform that's why so people are so smart in in coning these lies and and and the believe that they're doing okay it's fine because everybody else is doing but sometime when you are sequentially lying you forget that you killed your granny last year and now again this year you are saying my granny died and then your boss will say well didn't she die last year how many grannies you have now a grandfather might have two three four girlfriends and you know married wives some people married too many times so but the problem is when they they kill their grandpa last year and then they again kill their grandpa this year my Grandpa died didn't your grandpa die you can't have too many grandpas you know your grandpa can marry many times but still the grandpa is a grandpa but he they kill the grandpa then they forgot and then they get caught and then the embarrassment turns into anger and that's how people are getting so angry and so viciously angry all the times because they live the life of lies and deceit so patanjali yoga sutras begins from here that you have to have the Yama of sat truthful if you untruthful if SATA is not part of your life then you cannot become a yogic practitioner you have to be true to yourself and you have to be humble you can't be proud of your difficult ASAS or you can you have memorized some very difficult stas and and shlokas and that you wake up every day 3:00 a.m. and then you take your bath and sit for 2 hours in your um sad and you just so proud and filled with this vanity panjali says well you are condemned by your own mind so the the the biggest challenge which you have is improving upon or changing the flavors of your mind those errors and mistakes which you do unconsciously being very conscious and aware about the functionings of your own mind I I I have given this book mind undressed it's totally focused only on the mechanisms of the mind that how your mind can behave in a such a hideous way that if you could face the truths of your own mind you would feel pathetic about your own self because we may hide our IES and errors from others but you know what you did you may try to be very conveniently forgetful about all the bad stuff and the mind just loves to remember all the good stuff and hence everybody feel oh I great and good and better than everybody else so the important of bringing the Mantra in your sad as a foundation becomes very important doing sa becomes very important we say SAA is the soap which cleans the dirt of your mind and in our viic times when the Shish would would live in the guru's house they would do all sorts of work very happily very lovingly and being very honored to do all those like whether it was brooming the the floor or getting wood chopped from the forest or getting to grow veggies and wheat and rice for the for the gurukul students and teachers or whether cooking or cleaning or whatsoever there are some very beautiful Shabad in gurug gr sah in the sik great text where they are um expounding onto the feeling of the joy which the disciple is feeling while serving the master while doing those things and is looking forward to get an opportunity to do something something may I get something to do because this something which I'll be doing might be looking very small but for the mind it's something which will clean up makes you humble makes you Pious and I always say this that the innocence and Purity which a child has a disciple has to have that kind of quality if you don't have that kind of quality see if you are um deceitful if you are political in mind if you play mind games with others to put others down and make yourself greater than others if you lie and if you play politics and if you have all this kind of heinous things happening in the mind you will not have this innocence of a child you will not have that Purity which a child has and let me say it give this much credit to your Guru that the Guru has a very transparent and x-ray eyes and your all deceit is like ticker in know the the the CNN whether the any you know Hindi news channel or English news channel they have this sticker which is running you know giving these Snippets about the news and whatnot so just imagine your forehead being the screen and your all deceit and the dirts everything is like that ticker which the guru can see and read very [Music] clearly
