[Music] [Music] la [Music] so all the troubles and the efforts are to have that deeper understanding about what is illusion and what is reality all adjustments are required before that once the The Awakening has happened there is no no extra effort required to do any kind of adjustment um you know yesterday event did you like the event well the yesterday event with all the swamis and people talking lecturing uploading this asham and and the work which I am doing here and all the thing and people thousands people sitting in front and I'll share the secret with you what I was feeling at that time sitting on the Das and hear everybody singing Glory and of me and talking so good and great and loveful and respectful things for me and that was Brahma just a illusion like in the dream state whatever you see it is your mind who has taken shape and form of everything all the five elements to Earth to Star to moon to people to houses to things to devil to witches to to good and demig gods and Yogi or Guru or disciple or India or Brazil or whatever you might see who is taking shape and form your mind so I can say in in dream you are everything but people don't understand even their dreams so they think Dreams Come to Us well it doesn't come to you your mind creates it so you are the engineer you are the architect you are the material and you are watching it and you get scared of your own dreams people can't sometimes sleep because of their nightmares so for an awakened one how is it to be in this non-dual world as you see the dream now the only thing is when you see the dream you forget that it is a dream that seems real but for the awakened one with all eyes open and all the senses working the dream is happening the dream of waking is happening and yet for the awakened one for the at the one who has realized the word is at means to know Atma means the real self so to know real self one word ataga so for the ATA this is just a projection created by the mind and my dear the mind is such an instrument that if you begin to find where it is you won't find it and yet whatever you are experiencing are experienced through the Mind by the mind and mind is not there to be found H it's very amazing amazing right and then Isabella has a question which is a bit personal but I don't mind because you are not a stranger to me I am you so I am answering to myself did you have any specific specific triggers for your Awakening or it was more a process of curiosity about the reality study and spiritual practices I always love to answer this you know many time this is a very frequently Asked question most of the time I'll just put it on side don't answer because I'm little bored of answering the same question how many times should I but for sake of you coming all the way from a distance the point is that that um a rose is born as a rose a rose did nothing to be a rose are you getting a rose is born as a rose a rose never did any learning training teaching curiosity Awakening seeking guidance nothing Rose is born like a rose and so that's the fact of a rose and in case of this that's the case was just born in a family where many swamis and many learned people would come and uh Be Our Guest and my parents were very loving in Ser with great servitude so in in in India it's like an honor to have a Swami coming to your house so you may invite you may not even happen to meet even one single uh such person uh but somehow we were very fortunate and lucky that Mom would invite sometimes Swami's friend Swami Swami Swami friend Swami Swami Swami Swami friend friend Swami so they would say oh if you go amiter go to this house so they love being with us so mother and father both will take good care of them offer them food and whatever Services they could do they and then when they are there then actually for months together we would have discourses happening in our house so we were children and we we would be like seeing the meditation classes being conducted and we very joyfully be part of that and that was how we used to you know this was my play time yeah I did another play times also but this was my play time that's to learn vant to listen to their discourses and yes I had many Curiosities many questions and I would eat their brain and and I would just ask and ask and I was like the person who will ask question so sometimes they would wait for me until I come back from school if I'm in school so they let her come because others are just sitting like Mom no question I come I sit I have 100 questions um so the questions were there and the answers were coming and somehow we were very very fortunate that great swamis were there see in in India we have two types of swamis one who look like a Swami but are not a Swami and I know this will offend many many people but that's fact and then then there are Swami who look Swami and who are Swami means the one who is SWA means the self who knows the real self is a Swami Swami also means the master the one who is one master of one's mind and senses is called Swami Swami means owner the one who knows the truth and owns the truth is a Swami so being with uh these real swamis it was like being in an orchard with this wonderful variety of trees and wonderful different flavors and colors of juiciest fruits and over here when I'm saying fruits I am meaning knowledge and trees I mean those people those individuals who were there so the variety of them and and India has so many sects also so many fa religions also and somehow we had like all samples coming to us in one way or the another so as such there is no event which I can say that this happened that's why this happened no it was just River was flowing and new avenues of lands were being visited so it was just a thing which was happening and actually one of the Swami G who was there on the dice with me on my left as I I said I was just 12 when I could understand his vidan discourses and I would ask so many questions and he would lovingly answer all by 14 I was already the favorite Bajan singer who was in demand and everybody wanted me to visit their temples or asham or houses and they wanted me to do the singing and by 16 I was asked ordered by one of a very senior uh Swami G to conduct a discourse on shrimat bhagwat in a temple so I did that and I was actually in 11th standard so after my school I would give my school bag to one of my classmates and I would have have a white tunic which I would change my uniform into I would leave the uniform the blue tunic and wear a white tunic and a white you know scarf and would go to the temple to to conduct a satsung the this course there are people waiting for me and the guruji is coming from [Laughter] school guruji's bunking School sometimes because their program is at 11:00 a.m. and my classes won't end before like 2:00 p.m. so I I I have been speaking so many lies to run away from school so I have you know some this somebody has died or my stomach is hurting or you know like that so many excuses in that age the girls would make an excuse to run off or go for a cinema or shopping with a boyfriend and I would make excuses and lies so that I can go and do satsung so who is my dat old ladies old ladies and men and some young boys some young very young girls and there were there were some who were in my college and and oh you are in my college I said don't tell anybody what I do after the the 11th standard was prep it was called prep that would happen in the college so I said no don't tell anybody what I do so she would oh yes yes yes so I was like a lamb following me all the time you know these two three girls were like they become my Chella and they would follow me everywhere and they would you know with the bow head and folded end and don't do this don't do this don't follow me like this Put Your Head Up don't don't do this because the other girls would say why these two girls are you know with the folded hands following me wherever I go canteen there there I go Garden there there I go to the gate there there and they were trying to you know join me for for wherever I would go the wanted that so the thing is I am some crack case can't be exemplified but the only thing is I would say it's just the Grace Grace of of uh Masters the grace of great swamis who came in my life and somehow um Isabella whomsoever I would meet some very stranger you they don't know me I don't know them but simp somebody said there's a great Swami at a so and so place I would go to meet and when I would present myself I don't know why but they always loved me always loved me at least I remember one time there was a vidan conference and there were one Swami from badrinath one from rishikes one from benaras and one from my hometown Amritsar and four of them kind of fought with one another verbally not blows no no just verbally and they said I want her as my disciple and they were saying no I want to take her with me to Banaras no no I will take her to not with me and I'm looking at four of them why the hell you are fighting ask me first you know am I going to accept you or not but it was like you know very you know fun game which out of just love the the the the adulation which they they gave me it was their loveful blessings and great great learned swamis very learned Swami great swamis so it is the grace so see any anything which is happening as per our philosophy of life you know we are not philsophy it so in in our language the word is dasan it's not philosophy dasan means to see philosophy is to hypothetically think there are two big difference so like this is a rose flower are you making a philosophy that there is a rose flower or you are seeing that it is a rose flower that's a difference but if I say no this is a Lotus or I say no it's a black rose a white rose or this is a magnolia or this is a defil you know any name and I said no then then you'll maybe have to imagine or use your craziness of the mind to say okay this is not a it seems and looks like a red rose but if guruma is saying it's a Lotus maybe it is a lotus and we can't see it so maybe it is a Lotus now when the maybe comes in that's what philosophy is it's just maybe maybe maybe um but we don't have word philosophy uh equated with word dasan dasan is to see you have a female body you see it you know it you have a male body you know it you see it there is nothing to philsophy about it it's not a projection it's your reality physical reality so similarly uh the physical reality is observable seeable perceivable understandable and the reality of your your own true self is something which the mind has to explore and know and yet there is nobody on this Earth who will say I don't exist can anybody say this I don't exist even if somebody repeats this statement that I don't exist the one who is saying this is existing so nobody can say I don't you know um you can't speak and and say I am dumb how can you be dumb you are speaking nobody can say while speaking I am mute I don't have any tongue in my mouth not believable not believable at all so the reality is we can debate and discuss whether God exists or not exist and you can be an atheist or theist or antagonist but nobody can say I don't [Music] exist
