Om Om Om Sehnavavtu Sehnobhunaktu Sehviryam Karvavahey Tejasvinam dhitamastu Maavidvisha vahe Gururbrahma Gururvishnu Gururdevo maheshwara Gurursakshaat Parabrahma Tasmayi Shree Gurveh Namah Om Shantih Shantih Shantih So the first thing today This book was written while keeping all of you in mind: It's named 'Divya Kathamrit' ( The Divine stories) (Filled) with illustrations, this book is of our India's wondrous, unparalleled Mahatmas, great Sages, great personalities Whom we also address as 'Avatari Purush'- The Manifested Deity The woman endowed with such divine qualities who are the sages, the rishis, the devotees In their journey of life How was their childhood, how were they in childhood? Those of you who are still under 18 are still children So it(the book) will be useful to you too, (or to your) siblings or cousins- if you have any When you'll get married, so tomorrow, you'll children- it will also be useful to them Unfortunately In your school curriculum, you don't have these things covered in syllabus The stories about the invaders and looters (of Bharat) are highly glorified But the great kings of our country, whether that is Chalukya Or Chola, or Gupta, or Maurya Regarding them, the entire explanation will end in a matter of one paragraph But all the invaders who have come here after 12th century They are highly glorified; An elaborate history is written about them As if before them, Bharat was bereft of wealth and food; There was nothing here! But the Truth is that the very first time when Sikander (Alexander) has come here Did he come to see the poverty? or he came for Bharat's wealth and diamonds, and, pearls and mines and silk, cotton, turmeric, saffron silver, copper, iron, gold? For the last 100, 200 years, those people, there in Athens, in Rome, were listening to the praises of all these things! and then they thought Whatever we need, we will get it al in one country only- so let's go there! Then after Sikandar, there were many who line-up for all this Someone is coming from Turkey, from Iran Some are coming from china; Portuguese and French are coming And Britishers came at the end So this is almost a long period of 760 years, which is now our history of Bharat In that, the Bharatiyata, the science of Bharat, the sages of Bharat, the Rishis of Bharat Ayurveda of Bharat, Yoga of Bharat- there is no mention anywhere about all this They don't teach you Vagbhata or Chanakya in schools; Should have been taught! They should have taught about Rishi Chanak They should have taught you some sutras of 'Ashtanga Hridayam' What to eat, what to drink, how to keep the body healthy Should teach Patanjal Yog Sutras Know the system of your mind, Know the tribulation of your mind Know how you can free your mind from attachment, hatred wanted to teach then some part could be of yoga philosophy because, whatever religion you have Whatever your identity is or you are from tribal or any or from backward caste everyone has the right on it On Yoga, on Knowledge, on Ayurveda, on Vedanta On Upanishad, everyone has the right But is not told So I thought, I should do something so took this first step In this Sant Gyaneshwar, Satyakaam jabali, devotee prahalad, devotee Dhruv, devotee Meera Guru Nanak dev, Sant Kabir and Childhood of Hanuman ji with illustrations in such a way, beautiful.. Colored sketches So this will become very interesting for smaller kids, for teenagers, for So this Divya Kathamrit What do we say.. we're releasing it with you today Now before your Curiosities Which I want is that.. I would like to introduce some basic Vedanta sutras for you Contemplation would get better When you say 'I' I... then what is in that I? In that I Mostly there is body Mind on number two also a thought of intellect When you go in deep sleep then you are not aware of anything then where does you consciousness go at that time? And when sleep opens, consciousness comes out again If someone is fainted Because of heat or sun stroke or due to any injury So if he has witnessed faintness then in that condition you aren't aware of who I am or where I am It's like black out Don't know where I am So what is this I? To which you are addressing as I; what is that I? This body is made of five elements And body made of five elements has some duration In that duration, he get ages according to his prarabdh (destiny) It depends on his prarabdh that when death will occur Will die before 5 years or 10 or 20 or 50 or 40 or 30 years or will go till 80 years, it depends on your destiny Destiny means the collection of your Karmas From there fruits are being received Now where is the collection of your Karmas? It is in your Chitta (subconscious) Where it is ? It's a subconscious mind Mind, intellect, sub conscious and ego, This is 'Antahkarana' Everybody will repeat - Mind, intellect, sub conscious and ego One word of this which we can call is 'Antahkarana' Now Antah means inside and karana is the medium with which like we see through our eyes So Eyes is medium Hear from ears, so ears is medium for listening, similarly The medium we use to know this outside world is inside, that's why 'Antah' But connects us with outside, so it is 'karan' Now look this antahkaran like a pot filled with water Just understand the example first One pot in which water is being filled If we keep that pot on earth under the open sky, and moon is in the sky Then what would happen, the reflection of the moon will come in the pot Now so many times I have told, Lord is inside you.. But how? We'll understand this through a diagram, picture slide Please see on the screen, what you are seeing? The scene that is coming in front of your eyes is that The figure of moon in the sky is drawn which is labeled as Brahma And so many small big earthen pots have been kept on the ground And if you'll see the reflection of moon is coming in all the pots, can you see that? Yes, now whether the pot is small or big, reflection of moon will be similar or different in the pots? Will be similar, okay if you understand this example in this way, Moon means Lord; but why are we saying Brahma? We are saying Brahma because, Brahma means big, all pervasive and that which is pervasive is bliss that which is bliss is conscious and that which is conscious is truth So Sat- Chit- Ananda but if we say one word then it would be Brahma So moon in the form of Brahma Pot in the form of body Water in the form of mind, That which gets reflected Reflection of this Brahma We call Jeeva, Jeeva means Now how many components are there? One - water One reflection and whose reflection, how many- three Moon, Moon's reflection and the water in which it's get reflected Count, so it becomes three, now understand this This clay pot and your body too is of soil Here the water is in pot and you have antahkaran in the body There we have shown Moon and here Brahma Reflection of Brahma which gets reflected in Antahkaran so Antahkaran plus reflection Plus Brahma is equal to jeeva Got it Will you give next slide to me When we say reflection then it has three characteristics One- Both the image and it's reflection is different Now this image in which girl is looking herself in the mirror So we can say, two girls are there Or we'll say one is image and other is reflection Another property of the reflection is that it will be seen only in the mirror The wall on which mirror is placed, it will not get reflected on that wall Third, it seems counter intuitive from image, have you noticed this your right is left Right? Your right is left now By using this example of physics Some will say, how it became jeeva when it is reflection of Brahma Brahma is Sat-chit-ananda, so should be jeeva But the definition of jeeva is this Definition, To whom we call jeeva? That who is ignorant New words, so repeat with me Alpagya means, 'Alp' means a little and 'gye' means knowledge One who has little knowledge, we call that Alpagya What do you think? Are you omniscient or ignorant? I am not saying, you are saying Okay, Reflection will be opposite to the image Now Brahma is truth, ever conscious, ever blissful But the reflection, it considers and understand to present in just this one body One is Ignorant- little knowledge Second, the mind in this antahkaran If mind is impure Sinner or angry Hateful, who have a small fuse in every minute explode like a bomb If mother or daddy or teacher or friend has said something, meaning ready to explode like a twine bomb Sometimes it doesn't blast and makes fur.. furr.. sound And you think it will not work and suddenly.. So your mind is like that.. anger from inside and then somebody said what are you doing; why are you asking..? Oh! What happened? then after sometime oh I am sorry, I was upset, teacher said something Oh I failed in exams or this happened.. Have to go with cousin to watch movie and they didn't take you with them, have gone alone or whatever reason When mind is agitated When your mind is unhappy When your mind is in trouble then we can say this as water is shaken Now in this shaking water, the moon will appear full or broken wake up the neighbor No, next one, he was alright Center one Yes little bit .. no issues you people wake up in the morning, do a lot of things, little bit you feel sleepy sleepy, no problem Now is it fine, need tea? Very nice tea will come, will you drink ? No issues, very good.. very intelligent boy
