0:15 there is a beautiful story from the life 0:18 of jagat Guru Shankaracharya 0:21 the savior of Hinduism who traveled 0:25 all around Bharat Varsh reestablishing 0:29 People’s 0:30 faith in the Vedas 0:32 however when he was residing in 0:37 Kashi with his disciples an episode took 0:41 place that made him change his 0:44 philosophic 0:46 stance according to him there was just 0:50 one entity Brahma 0:56 Brahma there is one Brahma the world is mithya or  1:00 non-existent and according to him 1:03 the soul is 1:05 Brahman now one day he was walking with 1:09 his disciples towards the manikarnika 1:13 Gat of Kashi and found that the path had been 1:16 blocked by a lady who had the body of 1:20 her dead husband in her lap and she was 1:24 wailing my husband was so nice why did 1:28 God take him Shankaracharya stood there 1:31 and said 1:33 maa please give 1:35 way she began screaming more loudly 1:40 everybody else their husband is alive 1:43 why did it happen to me 1:45 alone Shankaracharya lifted his voice 1:49 mother we need to go and bathe please 1:52 make way for 1:55 us she began screaming even more loudly 2:00 finally Shankaracharya became a little 2:03 annoyed and he said mother what is the 2:07 point in crying like this your husband 2:09 is gone he is not going to come 2:12 back all of a sudden that woman turned 2:16 around she said 2:19 Shankaracharya why are you speaking to me speak 2:22 to my husband tell him to get 2:25 up clear the path Make Way for you 2:31 Shankaracharya said mother, in separation 2:34 from your husband have you lost your 2:37 mind that is a dead body it has got no 2:41 energy in it how can it get 2:45 up that woman she said 2:49 Shankaracharya according to your principle your 2:53 interpretation of the Vedas Brahma is 2:57 a Brahma because if there is 3:01 Shakti then there is no longer one 3:04 entity so tell me we now that Brahma 3:08 has created the world if Brahma has 3:12 created this world without Shakti this dead 3:16 body should also be able to get up 3:18 without Shakti to prove your point make it 3:22 do 3:23 so Shankaracharya was astounded who is 3:27 this lady who punched a hole in my 3:34 philosophy he remembered the time when 3:37 he had gone to debate with 3:40 Ved Vyas when he had reached Badrika Ashram he 3:45 went behind to Uttar Bbadri and went up 3:49 the snow clad path Ved Vyas was residing up 3:54 in the Himalayas he descended the two of 3:58 them met in a cave where they sat down 4:02 and did shastra scriptural debate it 4:06 continued for seven days and Ved Vyas the 4:10 writer of 18 puranas he was unable to 4:13 defeat Shankaracharya the debate extended 4:17 for another seven days and he still 4:19 could not defeat 4:22 him then he was pleased and he blessed 4:26 Shankaracharya

3:17 she is the yogamaya that Krishna is 3:20 mentioning in this verse 3:23 yogamaya the Divine energy 3:27 so the relationship between Krishna and 3:30 Radha is of the energetic and the energy 3:35 such a beautiful understanding 3:39 the Narada pancharatra says understand 3:42 this whole world 3:45 as different energies and the one 3:48 energetic 4:01 like one sun 4:04 is in one place and Illuminating the 4:07 whole solar system 4:09 similarly there is one source of all 4:12 energies the Supreme Divine Personality 4:16 and His innumerable energies by which He 4:21 is manifesting this world 4:24 and one of those Energies 4:27 is Maya 4:29 the material energy 4:32 this material energy Maya 4:35 is the one 4:37 from which everything is made this is 4:40 easy to understand this is what science 4:42 is delving with 4:45 it's looking into external matter 4:53 How do we understand us souls? 4:57 so one understanding is we are the 5:00 children of God 5:02 right 5:03 The Vedas also say  5:07 you are the child of the Supreme Lord 5:12 but here the question arises that if I 5:15 am the child of God 5:16 then I should have some resemblance to 5:19 Him 5:21 he is Anand Sindhu 5:23 and I am devoid of bliss out here  5:28 from an elephant an elephant child is 5:30 born 5:31 from bear a bear child is born 5:34 you don't have humans giving birth to 5:37 elephants and elephants giving birth to 5:39 bears and bears giving birth to humans 5:42 We are God's children we should be 5:44 like God but He is beyond Maya (मायातीत, माया + आतीत (beyond)) and we are 5:47 माया आधीन (under the control of Maya), He is omniscient and we are in 5:51 ignorance what kind of children are we 5:54 Shri Krishna says 5:58 the soul is my little part 6:04 because it's a fragment of me it is 6:07 called 6:08 my child 6:11 so it's a deeper understanding we are 6:13 fragments of God 6:16 but then 6:18 the Deep thinkers will say you know how 6:22 come we are fragments of God 6:24 is God like a piece of stone you smashed 6:27 Him with a sledgehammer and He broke 6:30 into all these fragments 6:32 so the answer is given with Chaitanya 6:36 Mahaprabhu 6:37 we are the energy of God 6:41 there's this Maya energy 6:43 and there is the soul energy 6:47 the Superior Energy 6:49 but there is a third energy 6:52 and that is the one He has referred to 6:54 in this verse 6:56 which is Yoga Maya Secret of Yoga Maya 6:59 yogamaya is God's personal power all 7:03 powerful 7:05 It Is by virtue of that Yoga Maya 7:09 that He takes Avatar 7:12 He says in the fourth chapter 7:16 I am unborn I am Eternal but with the 7:20 help of my yogamaya I take an avatar 7:24 so by that yogamaya He says Arjun I am 7:28 sitting inside you 7:31 but you have no perception of Me 7:35 the doctor takes the stethoscope 7:38 take a deep breath 7:40 breathe more deeply 7:43 so the doctor also cannot hear God although He is 7:45 Sitting inside all beings’ hearts 7:48 He's covering Himself by Yoga Maya nobody 7:51 has a perception of Him 7:54 this yogamaya is such a power 7:58 everything inconceivable that God does 8:01 is by this 8:03 when the first computer revolution was 8:06 starting somebody asked me in India one 8:08 student 8:10 swamiji which computer does God use to 8:14 keep track of all our karmas 8:17 first of all note them keep account 8:20 dispense the results 8:23 the computers are created from the 8:26 material energy 8:28 they are products of Maya for this kind 8:31 of work God uses Yoga Maya 8:34 so He keeps note of all the karmas 8:40 and He is keeping track of all the souls 8:45 in creation 8:48 and doing all of this He is not getting 8:51 any tension 8:54 now you people 8:56 you have two three children in the world 8:58 right 9:07 and God has got so many children 9:11 and one is a good child one is saying 9:14 God is an opiate of the masses third 9:16 says my God died young and so many, this 9:19 one somebody has written a book He's 9:22 written a book my God died young etc etc 9:24 and God is taking care of all these 9:27 children 9:28 and yet He has got no tension He is in 9:31 full Bliss 9:32 that power which enables this is Yoga Maya 9:37 and by that Yoga Maya God manifests his 9:42 Divine abode 9:44 his Divine pastimes 9:47 so this power 9:50 is both formless and having a personal 9:53 form 9:55 that's the amazing thing then God's 9:58 powers can also take on a personal form 10:00 like you know Ganga Devi is a river  10:02 right but Ganga Devi also has the 10:04 personal form, these Ved mantras are Gyan 10:08 Shaktis, knowledge energies, but they also 10:11 have personal forms, they meditated to 10:15 participate in Krishna Leela so yoga 10:19 Maya takes on the forms of Durga Sita Durga, Sita, Radha, Lakshmi, Kali 10:27 they are all the personal manifestations 10:31 of the Divine energy 10:35 and hence 10:37 as the different forms of God are one 10:41 likewise the different energies these 10:45 Yoga Maya shaktis they are also one 10:50 but the point is that they are all 10:52 different forms of the one God , God 10:55 is all powerful He can take as many 10:56 forms as He likes 10:58 and likewise the Yoga Maya Shakti can 11:01 also take as many forms so Durga Sita 11:05 Lakshmi Kali are all different forms of 11:07 the one God 11:09 of the one Yoga Maya 11:11 that is why in the Brahma vaivartak 11:15 purana 11:16 Shri Krishnas is telling Radha 11:19 SHALOKA What Shree Krishna Says about Radha? 11:52 O Sita, O Radha, these are all Your different forms 11:56 so 11:57 what is the relationship between Radha 12:00 and Krishna it's the relationship 12:02 between the energetic and the energy the 12:06 Shaktiman and the Shakti 12:08 they are eternally one 12:12 can you separate the whiteness from the 12:15 milk 12:16 impossible 12:18 likewise Radha and Krishna are one 12:23 so 12:25 this is the simultaneous Oneness and 12:29 Distinction, Bheda (difference) Abheda (no difference) 12:40 now 12:43 Radha form has got some Specialties 12:47 in the Rus 12:49 she is the loving form of Yoga Maya 12:53 see the mother has got her different 12:56 forms 12:57 every child knows the angry form of the 13:01 mother 13:02 you know nowadays it's not allowed to 13:05 beat children but the seniors amongst us 13:08 have all been nicely beaten up as little 13:11 children 13:14 one child was going home 13:18 and He was thinking my mother will be 13:20 there and she will take me in her lap 13:23 and she will shower her affection on me 13:27 but when she reached home the mother was 13:30 in a different mood 13:32 she had a stick in her hand and she was 13:34 beating his brother 13:36 this child thought oh my God 13:41 Tinku is really getting it I better slip 13:45 into my bedroom and when mummy's mood is all 13:47 right I'll come and speak to her 13:50 so likewise there is one form of the 13:54 mother where she is killing the 13:55 rakshasas etc 13:57 you know this is her Kali form she's 14:00 also the Divine mother 14:02 but the form that really attracts the 14:05 child is the loving form 14:08 in her Radha Farm she is not concerned 14:11 with killing of demons let Kali and 14:14 Durga take care of that 14:17 I will only participate in the loving 14:20 pastimes and share that love with all 14:24 the devotees 14:26 so 14:28 in bhakti 14:30 the position of the Divine mother 14:32 becomes very important 14:42 even in the world it's because of the 14:45 mother's love and the sacrifice that the 14:49 mother's position is more important than 14:52 the father that's why you see the 14:54 Mother's Day is more celebrated than the 14:57 Father's Day, within the Divine realm 15:00 also the knowers of bhakti say that the 15:04 grace we are going to get it from the 15:06 mother 15:07 she is more compassionate 15:10 she is more kind-hearted and more 15:13 generous and hence this bhakti I'll get 15:17 by the grace of Radharani 15:20 people say why do you say Radhe Radhe 15:23 well the whole thing is Radhe Radhe Shyam milade 15:30 Divine mother 15:32 please bless me and help me meet the 15:36 Divine father 15:38 when they are worshiped together 15:41 understand them as one yes 16:01 She who is Radha is also Krishna He who 16:04 is Krishna is also Radha 16:07 so don't think they are different 16:18 so seeing them as one you either worship 16:21 both of them 16:23 are you say you know my mind is 16:24 attracted to Krishna okay my mind is 16:27 attracted to Radha okay but never say 16:30 you know one is good and the other is 16:32 bad that kind of Distinction becomes 16:35 odious (extremely unpleasant; repulsive)

Powerful Krishna Consciousness to Free your MIND from Worries and Negativity by Swami Mukundanand

https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI

• 1 0:00  the conditioned soul in material   consciousness is not seeing itself as   the soul, it is identifying itself with   the body & then the bodily   identifications I'm Gujarati I'm marwari   I'm Sindhi I'm Bengali I'm Indian I'm   American I'm Chinese I'm Mexican I'm a   human being and even worse I am the mind https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=0 2 0:27 we don't even realize that the mind is   different and I am different, the mind   creates thoughts, think this, think this   think this and we keep identifying with   the thoughts, the scriptures say    you are not   thinking BUT your mind is thinking,  why don't   you distance yourself from the mind, the   end of all problems. But that so happens with   practice of self knowledge, slowly we   learn to see our ourselves as the soul   distinct from the body, distinct from the   mind and finally even distinct from the intellect  https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=27 3 1:11  Shri Krishna says such a soul   situated in karma yog resides in the   city of nine gates in   detachment, neither thinking of himself   to be the doer nor thinking of himself to be the   enjoyer of what is this city of nine gates,    the embodied beings who are   self-controlled and   detached reside happily in the city of nine gates free from thoughts that they are the doers  https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=71 4 2:27 God   Krishna says that there is a   City, in the city is a   House, in the house there's a   Courtyard, within the courtyard is a   secret ,one who knows that secret knows   everything that is to be known  https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=147 5 3:24 the city He talks about is the   body, in the body is the heart and   the courtyard is the space of the heart   and in that resides   Bhagavan, so one who knows that Brahma, he   knows everything that is to be known   https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=204 6 3:46 now here He's giving a similar   analogy, he is saying that there is a city   with nine   gates and this is our body, it has got   the nine gates   two eyes, two ears, two   nostrils, mouth, anus & genitals are the nine gates   to this body https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=226 7 4:15 now the purified   soul resides in the body like we all do   but the difference is we are identified   with the   body that is not so serious, even more   serious is we are identified with the   mind and we are identified with the   intellect and we are identified with the   ego and hence we are in this bound state https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=255 8 4:42 now the mind is a   mischievous   monkey and this mischievous monkey   called the mind is throwing up thoughts,   it has an algorithm of its own sometimes,   it says I am so happy   I so blessed to be in swami ji's retreat   and then after a few moments it says oh   you know but I could have I had these   other options, this was not the only   thing I could have done, maybe I made a   wrong choice, so this is all being thrown   up by the mind, not by the soul, the   mischievous monkey called the mind is   throwing up these thoughts that is its   Job, we the   Souls, the mistake we are making is we   are identifying with these thoughts and   that is why we are saying now I'm   Inspired, I'm not inspired based upon the state of the   mind  https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=282 9 5:44 but the realized Souls they create   a distance between the mind and   themselves and seeing that mind as   separate from them they can understand   oh at this moment the mind is trying to   seduce me with a not so wholesome    thought, with a nonbeneficial   detrimental thought, it is my choice   whether I accept it or I don't, I choose not to https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=344 10 6:18 now the moment you dissociate   yourself from the thought, it loses its   Power, so the thoughts, they do   come in all kinds   there's no limit to the kinds of   negative   thoughts and then if we see them as a   part of us they grip us https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=378 11 6:43 like one lady she came to me she said   swami ji, my brother died of cancer a few   months ago, first she said I'm in   depression, I'm so   Sorry, so she said my brother died of   cancer 5 months   Ago, I said oh really so ? is that the reason   for your depression no no   that is all right, I have released that,   the problem is I have started thinking   that I will also get   cancer and then I heard in your mind   management that if we think some   thoughts again we attract that those   circumstances to our life so here I'm   thinking I will get cancer, I will get   cancer and I'm just thinking that will   attract cancer to my life so I'm really and   seriously worried now https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=403 12 7:39 what is the mistake the lady   is making, the mistake is she's   attributing those thoughts to herself, I   am thinking like   This, now the next moment I'm thinking   Like that   , that's not the way to do it,  the moment   you adopt the thought, moment you see   yourself as the source of it, it becomes   energized and then it becomes stronger   and comes to you again and worried now & again until it starts creating a   new neural pathway and you feel that you   are in the grip of this negative   Chintan, now we realize that some of   these thoughts they don't align with our   goals or they may not even align with   our values, they may be   immoral so when people have those   thoughts, why am I thinking like   this, the moment they start doing that   they have energized the   thought that's exactly what the thought   wanted, the power and you have empowered it https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=459 13 8:50 instead a more enlightened way   Is, okay a thought has   come  but I'm not interested, like the birds   fly in the sky - they just fly away one   moment here, the second moment they are   gone, it's not that you have to chase   every bird that   comes, it is the same with these   Thoughts,  that freedom comes from self   knowledge when you deeply contemplate   the fact that you are not your   mind, you are the “seer” of the mind, the   soul, that monkey mind can work to your   Benefit but also it can work to your   Detriment, so it is for you to train it   the way you want now https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=530 14 9:46 supposing you are in the dark and a   stranger accosts you all of a sudden, you   see this big hulky guy,  you have two   options either to run from there or   to attempt to fight him because you know   that he's going to mug (torment) you, so you have to   either fight this danger or run away   from it but supposing you're walking on   the street and little children start   Heckling (bothering)   You, so is it advisable to fight them ? no   because they will only be provoked, is it   advisable to run no? because they'll run   after you, so in this case the advisable   thing is to ignore    them they'll say you know we teased him   , let's tease the next   guy likewise the moment you accept the   thought as your own that thought gains   an energy and the moment you distance   yourself from it, it loses its energy https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=586 15 10:51 that is the basis of the   sakshi, witness consciousness   so in   sakshi the self realized sages they surf   the emotions and sensations in the body,   they can even surf the pains in the body,   surfing (ride over them)  means they just surf it that is   why their ability to tolerate pains   because they see the pain is coming and   they say okay it is coming but I   distance myself from it, that same   sakshi has become popular in the western   world in a diluted form as mindfulness https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=651 16 11:36 so in mindfulness this   knowledge is not there in the mix that I   am the   soul but the concept is given of   watching your   Thoughts, so the   Intellectuals, the academicians, the   Scholars, they find this a very   convenient philosophy there is no need   to believe in either the soul or in God,   no need to have any kind of faith and   yet you have this powerful tool for mind   Management mindfulness https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=696 17 12:09 but it's in original form in   the vedas, it is the witness   consciousness Shri Krishna is saying the   same here, He says Arjun this self   realized   souls, they stay in this body and they   remain in witness   consciousness, so they are able to retain   their elevated state of thoughts and     consciousness https://youtu.be/dRMouFwOSyI&t=729 Standby link (in case youtube link does not work): Powerful Krishna Consciousness to Free your MIND from Worries and Negativity Swami Mukundananda.mp4

https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs You can also read the TRANSCRIPT (text version) of the same by clicking "..more" & "Show transcript". But the following Blog link has done several corrections in the above Transcript provided in the video & hence the following link is easier to read in text flow 1 0:00 don't keep “dur bhavana”, dur bhavna is ill will ill feeling towards someone, don't keep it , why, because your thoughts will pollute you, they will impact your consciousness, if you wish to progress in sadhana, then don't create ill will even in your dreams, even by mistake https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=0 2 0:47 don't see the faults of others, see your own faults https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=47 3 0:57 two brothers came along with their father to listen to swamiji's program and they were inspired - yes we wish to do a life transformation and we wish to manage our mind etc. so when they went back home, the father inspired them that tomorrow you both wake up at 4 00 am and meditate, they said yes father,  if we have got the inspiration of our life tomorrow onwards, we'll never be the same https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=57 4 1:36 the next morning, the elder son woke up at 4am, and the younger one he kept on sleeping, it was so blissful so the elder one said to father ,what a rascal he is that I am awake here meditating and he is just sleeping in his bed https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=96 5 2:02 the father said my child if you had to find faults with your brother, you shouldn't have woken up at 4am you were better sleeping, what is the point in waking up if at the end of it you are just finding faults with others likewise what is the point in coming to satsang if we are doing fault-finding, it is purposeless https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=122 6 2:32 so looking at the faults of others we accumulate their sins https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=152 7 2:41 one king wanted to give in charity to the brahmanas, he arranged brahma-bhoja and he had got the cooks to cook a lavish meal but accidents happen, one eagle was carrying a dead snake and it dropped the snake in a cauldron, the snake got cooked along with the brahman's food and made it poisonous https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=161 8 3:15 now when the brahman started eating, some of them fell sick, the analysis was done and it was discovered that there was poison in the food, Chitra Gupta, the devata who has the task of noting people's karmas, he started wondering the sin of hurting these brahmans, on whose account should I put it?  https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=195 9 3:44 I cannot put it in the account of the snake as it was dead, I cannot put it on the account of the eagle it is agyani or a devoid of knowledge, it had no such intention, I cannot put it on the account of the king either because the king did not do it deliberately, it was an accident https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=224 10 4:07 in the meantime some more brahmans were coming and the news had spread, so there was one lady standing outside and the brahmanas asked the lady, we have heard the king is giving a brahma bhoj and along with the meal he is offering gifts to the brahmanas, the lady said don't, that king is giving poison to kill the brahmanas https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=247 11 4:36 Chitra Gupta said that decision is made, all the sin is put on the account of this lady https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=276 12 4:45 so it is said if you point out somebody's mistakes and he has not made any you get the entire sin and if you point out anybody's mistakes and they have made it you still get half the sin, it's very dangerous https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=285 13 5:08 So ensure that I will not do fault finding https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=308 14 5:13 a sage used to live up in the Himalayas in a hut by the lakeside, these mountain lakes are known for their clarity purity tranquility serenity and the swans used to come and congregate there https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=313 15 5:40 one hunter came looking for swans he was astonished to see the swans come and sit all by the side as the sadhu sits on the side of the lake to meditate, they are oblivious of him, they have no fear of him they walk all around, in fact they were kind of drawn by the vibrations that he was emanating during his meditation https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=340 16 6:13 that hunter was on an assignment he wanted to capture some swans and go and sell them at the zoo so he told the sadhu that i have been trying and they are so elusive now they come and sit all by you can you please help me tomorrow, you keep this net under your dhoti and when the swans come close as they do,  you throw the net on them, first the sadhu refused but the hunter convinced him that it's for a better cause a bigger cause, you know human beings will look at the swans in the Delhi zoo and be thrilled  so the sadhu got convinced he said all right next day he went to meditate with the net under him and sat down he kept his eyes closed thinking as usual the swans will all come around him and once when he opens his eyes he'll catch them unprepared but when he opened his eyes he found that there was no swan anywhere around somehow the swans had sensed these animals they have got a greater sixth sense in this regard because they can't understand human communication so their intuitive grasp is not dulled by speech and that is why they grasped just by feeling they had realized that the Sadhu’s  feelings had changed he had now got the thought in his mind i am going to catch these swans https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=373 17 8:18 it is by our thoughts that we purify ourselves it is by our thoughts that we pollute ourselves so when we keep resentful thoughts towards others we think this person is very bad he did this to me but the thought resides in us and the loss that is suffered is by us not by the other https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=498 18 8:49 one husband and wife the husband's name was champaklal and his wife was popta ben and so champaklal and popta ben they went to the mandir and after they came back from the mandir popta ben told champaklal she said my dear husband did you see there was dirt accumulated on the first stair of the temple the husband said i did not see my dear husband did you see that the paint under the window was slightly torn husband said i did not see my dear husband did you see that in the temple there was a little trash by the corner husband said i did not see, popta ben was so popped up and said then what is the use why do you go to the temple at all if you don't see all this she was so popped up and was going there to see the faults  https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=529 19 10:06 so maharaj ji says don't be a fault finder be a good finder there are faults everywhere nothing is free of defects https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=606 20 10:23 you can find fault even with Lord Krishna, why doesn't He stand straight, why does He stand crooked ? https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=623 21 10:34 it is so easy to find fault with others and so difficult to find fault with ourselves it is so easy to judge others and so difficult to learn from them so we follow the easy path but the problem with this is first of all it increases our pride because we then assume the other person is wrong and i am right and the fact is we are all wrong because we are in maya so as long as if we are in maya we have got so many defects and when we are looking at the defects of others we are not turning our gaze to our own defects which are there and they will only keep on increasing https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=634 22 11:30 So, look don't make this mistake you who point fingers at others look these three fingers are pointing towards you so take the cue https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=690 23 11:54 Maharaj ji says show your mind your own defects that is the pathway to improvement we should take inspiration from the saints they knew the art of how to think in an adverse situation to ensure that the mind doesn't get polluted  https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=714 24 12:26 there is the story of a devotee from south India called Venkatnath he used to engage in his bhajan and the neighbors would make fun of him so atheism has always existed in this world of maya even in historical times and it was there in the time of Venkatnath that the youth are more susceptible to atheistic theories so some of the youth thought of a practical joke they made a garland of shoes and slippers and hung it by the gate entrance of this guy's cottage that when he comes he will come in his मस्ती  unaware just taking the God’s names and he will hit this garland it will fall on him we will all have a hearty laugh so Venkatnath came as usual his mind in   the other world   and without realizing there was a   reception committee   he went and hit this garland and it fell   upon him the garland of shoes   now he could also have created a monster   in his mind oh my god   this is what they did, they don't do to   anybody else they only do to me what is   it   the youth when the garland fell they   started laughing   Venkatnat said very good very good   He was not disturbed   he said    some people they take the shelter of the   path of karma   for elevation   some take the shelter of the path of   gyan   for their elevation   but me   i will take the shelter   of the pad Raksha, the shoes of Haridas   these devotees of the lord   now he's seen them all as devotees and   he is saying i am taking the shelter of their pad raksaks, their shoes   that is the cleverness   how to think so that ill will  does not get generated within  https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=746 25 15:10  so this knowledge that we should not      harbor ill will      is common to saintly personalities      around the world   https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=910 26 15:20 the sufi saint by the name of sant usman   he was walking in the streets of arabia   when somebody   from the second floor   threw   ashes upon him   you know the burnt ashes   threw a trayful upon him   now again   he refused to create a monster   300 people went before me,  you did not do it to   them why did you do it to me   he just looked up into the sky   and said ya khuda   oh lord You are so compassionate   i was worthy of this that You should   have thrown burning ember upon me   and all You did was to throw ashes ,  the person who threw it  must have melted completely   that look even after throwing these   ashes i could not disturb the peace of   the saint   that is the quality to strive for   that is the sign of progress in sadhana https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=920 27 16:37 don't   create ill will   and the fact is, the way we are   that is how we see   the world https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=997 28 16:48 there was a room with a thousand mirrors   one little girl went there   and she said i see so many people in   this room   her father said tell them i love you   she said i love you   and they all responded with such a   loving expression   she was followed by a boy later on   and he saw so many people   he said how dare they all charge me   together so he lifted his hand i'll   smash you and they all lifted their hand https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=1008 29 17:27 so that is exactly how   this world is   it is not good it is not bad the way we   are that is how we see   this world https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=1047 30 17:43 there was once   an   old man   he used to sit outside the village   and when travellers used to come from   there   passing by   they would ask the old man how are the people who live in this village, he would tell them how the people are   from where you have come  , if they would say they are very bad   he would say the people here are also very bad,you can carry on, and if they would say they are so nice, he would say you will find these people, also so nice https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=1063 31 18:25 so the fact is that this is the world created by God   we see it according to the nature of our   heart   the moment we say that somebody is bad   this thought   is bad the defect is in that thought   within us   so maharaj ji says beware   if you wish to progress   in sadhana   then don't create ill will even in your dreams even by mistake https://youtu.be/GmnIGdoxGBs&t=1105 Standby link (in case youtube link does not work): 19
