Please enhance the love for You within me Please light up the temple of this mind Your love has - Your love has liberated everyone Let the Samsara be displeased with me Your love has liberated everyone Let the entire world be displeased with me - May my Lord is never displeased with me, even if the entire world is displeased with me Without you, I don't want to live I want to stay in the abode of your lotus feet With You, I am ready to die Even if the entire world is displeased with me, May my Lord is never displeased with me May my Lord is never displeased with me, even if the entire world is displeased with me May my Lord is never displeased with me Even if the entire world is displeased with me If there is love for Lord in your mind, if there is Sumiran (remembrance of Lord) in your mind day and night, you will not see any problems Even the Problem will be thinking how to trouble him (the one who is immersed in the remembrance of Lord) Problems are there as long as there is no faith in Lord in your mind Bani says, "Ja Tu Mere Wal Hai Ta Kya MohChanda, Tud Sab Kich Mainu Saunpeya Ja Tera Banda" When I belong to Lord, then what more do I need? What do I need? What should I cry for? Why should I cry? But this love, faith and devotion should be in our mind in the first place When this devotion is there, then you will never be stressed- no matter what happens in life You will never have any problems because your mind should resound with this saying: "Ja Tu Mere Wal Hain" - when you are with me; "Ta Kya MohChanda" - what more do I need? But the problem is that we are always looking at worldly people Like, when a girl is getting married in a wealthy family, everyone was very happy "Our daughter will never need anything" And they think that our in-laws are very powerful people so this will benefit our business - the marriage is also happening keeping their own benefit in mind They are very happy, they are telling everyone that the in-laws are such powerful people This will raise our status and prestige But you must think that when someone gets wealthy in-laws, they find this very prestigious But a devotee says, "the one I am related to, that Lord is the King of Kings then how prestigious would I be?" A devotee feels that the Lord is my Friend, Lord is my Father and Mother, He is my everything And when He is mine, then what should I worry about and what should I think about? And whatever is appropriate for me, whatever is right for me; Lord will do just that! So, when the Lord is with me then I am not worried or hesitant or stressed about anything - I am carefree Okay, listen about what happened - the relationship didn't work even for one year, it broke off Now, when the relationship broke off, they are still the same people but he tells me, "we are in big trouble" I asked, "why?". He says, "they are very powerful people" "Now they used their power, so now sometimes the Income Tax people are after me and sometimes the Police is after me" "They have put false accusations on me" So inside me, a laughter was breaking out- that this person was praising these in-laws so much earlier, and now he is crying! The words are the same but earlier he was laughing and now he is crying Why do you trust your mind so much? Please think about that Place your trust at right place and you will never be deceived! You trust those who are not trustworthy and then you cry that they broke my trust! You put your trust in the wrong place. If you had put it in the right place, you wouldn't have cried So, in the mind there should be devotion, sumiran (remembrance of Lord) - see, sometimes you must do this - That whatever Shabad or Bhajan you like, you should sing it, you should feel it and sing it When you will feel those lines and when you will feel those lyrics and sing and sing and sing - This will be one way of, you know, you are evoking those divine feelings in yourself That those feelings must evoke in you Finally, I am taking a question, "My Guru's ambition was to make 500 people like Him and I wanted to be in that 500" In process of that, many times I feel like I am deviating "Sometimes, I feel like what Sadhana I am doing is not enough and few times my laziness makes it irregular" "Could you please help one that how can I stick to my right Sadhana and become like my Guru in this life itself?" The only thing is keep this fire kindled all the times Just keep this fire kindling in your heart all the times Kabir Sahib has a beautiful verse and I am telling you absolutely what's in my heart That when I used to hear this in my childhood, I used to feel that this is what I also need to do I still remember it There was a movie called "Balak Dhruv". I saw this movie with my family in a cinema hall And in the entire movie, I saw how Dhruv did his Sadhana and how he found Lord While coming back, the entire family was in a rickshaw - I was looking at the sky and felt that I should also become Dhruv Chant the name of Rama in the same way as Dhruv and Prahlada chanted the name of Hari The way Dhruv and Prahlada chanted the name of Lord, I must do in the same way Dhruv did austerities so I felt that I must do the same Dhruv was in school and did His Sadhana I was also in school and felt that if he can do Sadhana while going to school, then I can do it too And they say, once Dhruv was in school and he closed his eyes started chanting "Sriman Narayana, Narayana, Narayana, Narayana..." and went into Samadhi state And the other kids started shaking him, "get up, get up" but he was in a meditative state, he was in bliss that he didn't open his eyes The kids told the teacher and he started hitting him with a stick and said, "get up, get up, what drama are you doing?" Whatever I saw, I felt I must do the same By the grace of Lord, I met many Sants in my life and they taught me how to sit, how to do bhajan A similar incident happened with me I was in sixth grade, it was a sports period and all the kids were playing in the ground And when they were playing, I went and quietly sat down behind a tree I closed my eyes and started doing Bhajan as I had learned And while doing Bhajan, it so happened that the period got over and all the kids went back to the classroom The next teacher asked where I was, "if she is not here, find her" They came to the playground and the teacher started pushing me to wake me up "Get up, get up, get up - what are you doing? Get up" It was a convent school, the teacher was a nun and she is scolding me but I couldn't open my eyes Like they were glued The body became so heavy that it didn't want to get up And, they were like, "Get up, get up, get up" So, literally they called some older students and they picked me up and sat me down on a bench outside the principal's office My principal was very strict, she came and started saying, "get up, get up, get up" My eyes wouldn't open They didn't open so what could I do? So, she took her cane and started beating me up Now she is beating me up but the eyes didn't open But in all this commotion, after a long time my eyes opened So she scolded me a lot and then called up my father and asked him to come to the school right away "Your daughter is very dramatic" So, my father had to come and the principal scolded my father a lot too that "what is this, what was she doing?" Now my father could understand what I was doing so he said that, "please excuse her and I apologize on her behalf but she was not doing anything wrong" "We do meditation everyday, she must have done her meditation and she went too deep - you never know when you can go deep" "She was not doing any acting or so" but the teacher didn't understand So she gave a warning to my father that if she closes her eyes in the school again, we will kick her out of the school So, my father explained to me while coming back home that you can do whatever you want at home but don't do this in the school again Now, I was feeling very happy within Why? Because Prahlada ji was beaten and today I was too! Prahlada ji's story - I was not trying to copy Him because I knew how great He was but I felt at least something similar happened in my life Can this happen? Yes, this can definitely happen When a Great Being who can teach us comes into our life and lights up the flame of love and devotion in our life - the life becomes blissful that it is not possible to do anything else This is how it is! And today you can see that the flame that was lit up at that time never went away In continuous remembrance of Lord, He made me His own and said you don't have to do anything else in the world - Just do this work! Just do this work! Otherwise, when they used to ask in school, "what do you want to be, what would be your job?" So I used to write - Police Officer, I want to be a Police Officer. Sometimes I would write I want to be a Lawyer because my maternal grandfather used to say that she talks a lot She can become a good Lawyer. Sometimes, he used to say she is very strict so she can become a Police Officer. So I used to write essays - I will be a Police Officer, I will be a Lawyer, and like that But look, neither did I become a Police Officer nor a Lawyer. She what He has made me! So, it's not that if we desire something with a pure heart then that desire won't be fulfilled If you want to become a good disciple, if you want to progress in your Sadhana - then no one can stop you! No one can stop you - not even the laziness of your mind But keep this flame alive inside - this flame must remain alive within you May my Lord is never displeased with me, even if the entire world gets displeased with me So, if any uncle, aunt, sister or nephew is displeased with you, then sing this song: May my Lord is never displeased with me, even if the entire world gets displeased with me No problem It will be good if relatives are displeased, no will will come to your house and you won't have to serve them tea and snacks You will be able sit down to do Bhajan, self-study, read good books - what is the problem in that? So, if someone is displeased, there is no need to cry Just remember this at that time: May my Lord is never displeased with me, let the entire world be displeased with me So, it's not about just a few relatives I am not saying that you should make people unhappy on purpose But if someone is displeased with you, just say "be happy in your home, be happy wherever you are and we will happily continue doing our Bhajan" Lord has the command over our life But he has also given us this command So, whatever resolve we make, whatever thoughts we have; that will definitely happen in our life - just have faith in this Have absolute faith in this And if you start doing Yogasanas and Pranayama and keep your body healthy, Then, you will live truly in this world disease-free And if you keep doing Bhajan, the mind will remain free of all unhappiness and sufferings What remains behind is absolute bliss - nothing other than bliss! With this, I rest my speech My love and blessings to all of you! My salutations in the lotus feet of the Lord! May you remain healthy in body and mind! May you have bliss in your life! May there be the light of eternal knowlwdge, may you be blessed with Pragya- a refined intellect and wisdom- I pray this for all of you!
