Life is passing by; Life is passing by Music Childhood time in lost in playing In youth, one is overpowered by the urges of physical pleasures Childhood time in lost in playing In youth, one is overpowered by the urges of physical pleasures Old-age is spent sleeping on the cot Desire troubles the Mind! Life is passing by; Life is passing by O Dear one, meditate upon Hari Life keeps passing by; Life keeps passing by Music Household, family, children, wife; Witness these also akin to a dream The cosmic illusion has spread its net of delusion It doesn't go with you Life keeps passing by; Life keeps passing by O Dear one, meditate upon the eternal name of Hari Life keeps passing by; Life keeps passing by Music The one who mediates upon the lotus feet of Hari He will crossover this ocean of emotions He will get established in Brahmananda Moksha (the ultimate state of liberation) The verses of Vedas says Life keeps passing by; Life keeps passing by O Dear one, meditate upon the eternal name of Hari Life keeps passing by; Life keeps passing by You might be a Billionaire or Trillionaire Yet the time of your life, which is gone, you can't bring it back; Can you? You can not? So what is precious? Money or Time? It is Time, not money You can give all the money to get your time back, (but) not even one minute will come back So spend your time with great Intelligence Don't waste it! And as I have said if you haven't learnt How to do the management of your own Mind then you might be managing company which has 30,000 employees But what a failure! You don't know how to manage your own Mind So be a great manager So, how do we do that? By beginning to learn to manage your Mind first If we can't bring our Mind under our command If we can't decode the moves of our Mind Then what will you do by controlling others? Often people say, "My son doesn't listen to me" Some say, "My daughter doesn't listen to me" Some say, "My children don't listen to me" This complaints remains and wives often have a complaint That husband doesn't listen to me Wife will say, "He doesn't listen to me" Mother will say, "He doesn't listen to me" So the poor chap is midway- Should I go this side or that side; where should I go? Because both are not happy So once one mother came to me and said, "My son doesn't listen to me" "You make him understand" "I am very sad" I said, "Mother, tell me one thing" "Does your Mind listen to you?" She said, "No, my Mind doesn't listen to me" I said, "When your own Mind doesn't listen to you" So if your children doesn't listen, so children are outside, they are at far Your Mind is closer to you So first you learn this That how your Mind will listen to you Now you think, we will not worry We will not worry, but what you do? This is the worry that we won't worry You don't want to be sad Someone was saying that we had marriage in our family He invited everyone and see he hasn't invited us She says, "Although we were also not set to go. Is going easy?' Book flight tickets for four persons of our family, how much expenditure would have happened But see, they should have invited na? We had invited them in all our weddings here See what sort of people are they, they didn't invite us They have not invited us Then she says, "Just leave it; what do we have to do?" It's good that they haven't invited us, our expenditure got saved After some time, again Again worried! Why are you worried now? She said, "She invited even my Aunt's daughter, but didn't invite me" I am close or my aunt's daughter? Now leave it, if they haven't invited then let it go Why are you getting stressed? She says, "It's easy to say, how does it matters to you? This is absolutely true that it doesn't matters to me The question is you are getting sad, that's why I am saying Why don't you leave it Leave this thing She says, "I want to leave but it's unable to do so" Sometimes one is unable to drop the stress, sometimes one is unable to drop the anger Sometimes one is unable to drop the annoyance Something is there that always keeps sticking to you And then your Mind makes you unhappy So if we can't understand our Mind Then what will you do by understanding the world? If your Mind starts to run according to your wish The truth is that no misery will remain in your life Now the major despair is that when your Mind gets sad, you are unable to rectify it It's not the question that for what reason it got sad But if your Mind is unhappy, you experience the grief And remember this you can't control circumstances And you cannot control people But you can control how you will respond to people and the situations And when you don't even know how to do that Then you suffer so who is making you suffer That person, that situation or your own Mind? Again let me say, "You can't control people" And it's not good thing to control people And you can't control situations, situations happen But how we will respond to that That should be more important And if we don't know how to do that Then we are going to be very miserable And very unhappy And on the top, we will be accusing everybody for our unhappiness So today just learn this principle If ever you are unhappy Know this, your Mind is making you unhappy Don't put blame on people or situations Or your Family or your friends Or your neighbors or your colleagues or the weather People are so unhappy One time I was in England And it was raining And everybody who came to see me was saying, "Oh, what a bad weather" I said, "Such a lovely weather" Such a beautiful weather I am coming from India where the temperature goes what? 48 degree, 49 degree And here I am seeing clouds and rains I am jumping like a child and I want to dance Like a Peacock and you say, "It's a bad weather?" But for us, it is very bad weather. Next day It was Sun- England is very unpredictable Next day, it's beautiful Sun People who came to see me, they were again complaining So harsh Sun, we got roasted on the way I said, "Well, if you are roasted, get me some ketchup, I will eat you up then" How can you get roasted? But a little a temperature above 28 degree and the are Yelling and they are crying and they are complaining And I said,"Weren't you complaining that there is no Sun?" She said, "Oh yeah, I was" But the Sun should be out but not this harshly Sun should know, our skins are very sensitive The Sun doesn't bother Okay coming to one point which I would like to advice is In my opinion The best Sun block for your skin To save it from harsh Sun Is Cold pressed Coconut Oil Any other Sunscreen which you might be using Please read the ingredients Some of the ingredients are just Cancer causing The biggest culprit is the Aluminium over there and there are multiple other chemicals which are there And it has been now acknowledged that It is a cause of Skin Cancer So if you wish to save yourself from Sun Get cold pressed coconut oil It's a beautiful oil Put a teaspoon on your exposed parts, hands, arms, face etc And if you can get a virgin coconut oil Then take a big one tablespoon of oil, ingest it And your cholesterol will come down Right! That's the best thing So coming back to the point, we can't control Sun, Rain, Clouds and Wind And when the weather is harsh, what do we do? We protect ourselves We don't abuse Sun, Wind and Air Right? So if somebody in your circle Is blowing heat like a Sun Right? Don't complain, put a Sunscreen lotion And the Sunscreen lotion in this case would be By accepting that this person is disgruntled and Angry and unhappy May be nobody has loved him Have empathy with that person, pray for that person We can't change people but We can change our Mind We can't change the external situations But we can change our Mind So we will have to learn to keep our Mind within our command If you learn this then you are an Engineer in true sense So I am making, I am trying to make you an Engineer- Engineer of Mind!
