Q & A BY GURUJI IN RISHIKESH,FEB'10

JAI GURUDEV!


Feb 26, 2010 Evening Satsang

Q. How can I remember you every moment?

A. Kya hum itne ghatiya hai ki yaad karna padta hai? Jo dil ko chu jaata hai oose yaad karne ki zarurat nahi padti. Lagta to nahi ki hum itne ghatiya hai… Ha Ha Ha

Q. Guruji whenever I speak the truth people feel bad…

A. Speak the truth but sweetly. Jab tak zyaada zarurat nahi tab tak katu-vachan bolne ki zarurat nahi hai. Sabji ko kulhaadi se kaatne ki zarurat nahi hai

Q. Prem ki sahi paribhaasha kya hai?

A. Mein Tera! Jisne Roshni ka anubhav nahi kiya ho oose pata nahi nahi roshni kya hai. Prem ka aisa hi hai, gussa aadi sab prem hi hai. Prem ki paribhasha karna kareeb kareeb impossible hai.

Q. Sachchi bhakti kaise karni chahiye?

A. Kaan kholke suno…tum bhakt ho, ispar koi snashay nahi karna. Tum sachche ho aur tumhaari bhakti sachchi hai. Nahi to ya aatmaglaani mein badal sakta hai. Kuch baatein maan ke chalo. Sunliya sabne? Ab kaan bandh karlo….

Q. Guruji Krishna ka chal-kapat, udhishtir ka Dharma-palan, Ram ka Vachan Palan, etc…inmein se kisko sachcha aura hi mane?

A. Each one came at a different time. Don’t think which one is better. Each one was at their best, have their own place, time and importance. Don’t mix them.

Q. Bhautik aur adhyaatmik jeevan mein saamanjasya kaise laaye?

A. Saamanjasya already hai. Whom would you like to be around? One who is happy or kadak? You like to keep spending time with some people. Vyakti ke andar ki tarang ek tarah se aakarshit bhi karta hai aur vikarshit bhi karta hai. Kuch dikhta hai, kuch samajhte hai….magar samajh ke pare aur bhi kuch hai…

Q. Ishwar ne ab tak janam kyu nahi liya?

A. Ishwar ne janam le liya hai…… aapke andar, andar jhaakh ke dekho, Ishwar koi dekhne waali cheez nahi hai, Ishwar drashta hai…Yog bheetar jhaakh kar dekhne ke liye hi karte hai. “Shareer ko aaraam, Mann ko Vishraam, Tum fir Aatmaram”

Q. Sould AOL get into politics?

A. Sudharak and shashak , both are important. Sudharak shashak nahi ban sakta aur shasak sudharak nahi ban sakta. Par abhi samay aa gaya hai ki aadhyatmikta ko raajneeti mein aana padega, nahi to brashtaachaar badhta rahega. Art of Living ko nahi, aap logo mein se kisi ko aage aana chahiye. Achche log raajneeti se bhaagte hai, ab itne saare naale ho gaye hai ki gandagi ko saaf karne ke liye sabko milkar kaam karna hi padega. Hoga!!!



Holi Diwalim roz hi hai, aap rang gaye to Holi, masst ho gaye to Diwali!!!



Feb 27, 2010 Evening Satsang



Aisa rang chadhe jo ootre hi na, lagta hai chadh hi gaya!

Q. Guruji aisa hum kya kare jisse bure vichaar aaye hi nahi?

A. Yahi to Yukti hai. Shaaririk shudhdhi se vichaar aane bandh ho sakte hai. Pet ko saaf rakhne se-triphala lene se. Pranayaam se mann shudhdhi, dhyaan se chetna shudhdhi. Kayi baar vatavaran se bhi bure vichaar aa sakte hai, lekin tum ghabhrana nahi…

Q. Guruji kya aapke saath lagaav moh maaya hai?

A. Ye moh-maaya hai, maha-mayaa hai kuch kaha nahi jaa sakta, magar ye maaya bhi to meri hi hai aur (humse) maaya rakhoge to auro se chutkara paaoge…

Q. Whole Universe is a manifestation of the Divine

A. Prakruti – No free will and bound with rules , Parmatma – Self will. Manushya in dono se juda hua hai, agar parmatma ka ansh adhik hai to swatantraya zyaada hoga

Q. Guruji hum cleanliness ke issue ko dhyaan mein rakhte hue soche to kya Puja saamagri ko nadiyo mein bahana achcha hai ya bura?

A. Flowers, camphor, water, etc. all biodegradable ingredients donot harm water. But Plastic, Oil, Mala, etc. pollute water. Asli naqli ka pata lagana mushkil hai isliye antar-drishti rakhna zaruri hai.

Q. Aaj-kal har jagah Politics chal rahi hai, jinko politics nahi aata ya pasand nahi hai unhe kya karna chahiye,?

A. Chatur ho jaao! Aise bhakt ho jaao jaise udhishthir the, to chaturai karne waale Krishna mil jaayenge. Ya fir khud chatur ho jaao. The world always thinks of you to be more good than you are and less bad than you are. Aap jaisa sankal karoge vaisa hi aapke saath hoga. Tum apne mann mein yah nishchay karo ki tumhe kya chahiye? Duniya ko doshi thehraaoge to khudd dukhi ho jaaoge aur self pity mein chale jaaoge. Tumhaare saath kaun galat kar sakta hai? Kyat um inte bewakoof ho? Saadharan aadmi dusro ke prem ko bhi nahi sweekar kar paata. GYAANI TO SAB JAANTA HAI AUR SAMAJHTA HAI…khud ka adhyaay karo-SWADHYAAY…

Q. Guruji mein jab bhi Bhagwaan ko prarthana karne baithta hoon to aap hi saamne dikhte ho, nazar aate ho, kya bhagwaan is baat se naraaz ho jaayenge?

A. Aap kisi bhi devi devta ko kahi bhi pranaam karo, jaata usi ek ko hai. Bhagwaan nahi naraaz honge, chintaa mat karo hum aapki lawyer-i kar denge, I WILL MANAGE…

Q. Raat mein tare dikhay dete hai, iska matlab kya Satya ko bhi andhere mein hi dekh sakte hai?

A. Kyu, kya din mein Suraj nahi dikhta? Shaam ko chaand nahi dikhta? Jab suraj aur chaand nahi hote tab taae dikhte hai. Taaro ke piche wahi bhaagta hai jo apne aatma ke chaand aur suraj ko nahi dekhta-dekh paata.

Q. Guruji, meine to maan liya hai ki mein raadha hoon, magar yahan par to aur bahut saari raadhae dikhti hai, asli raadha kaun hai?

A. Arrey, asli raadha ko to Krishna ke siway aur koi nahi dikhe the, tumko aur koi kaise dikha?

Q. When I am away, I feel more closer to you, when I am here I feel away…

A. I know I know…Everybody wants to be in the first row, but everytime it is not possible practically.

Q. People pull down those who work for the good

A. When you smile even in between the odds that is the real sign of a disciple.

Q. Guruji, mere andar bahut saari kamiyaan hai, mein bahut kharaab hoon, mujhe lagta hai main aapka naam kharab kar raha hoon

A. Jaan liya na, ab oose sweekar karo aur ab bhai age bhi badhoge ke nahi? Ye bharose se chalo ki kamiyaan door karne ke liye hi yaha ho. Best is, sharanaagat ho jaao…

Q. Bhakti ke liye raadha bhaav kaise laaye? Kuch samjhaaye

A. Raadha bhaav to gaa gaa ke hi hota hai, bolkar ya samajhkar nahi

Q. Seva k earth batayein, I am very busy, cant do seva, what should I do? (Twinle does that ring a bell? Hahaha)

A. One is our duty, and the other Seva. Both are important. Sa-Eva—ooske jaise karna. Ishwar tumse badle mein kuch bhi nahi chahta. Hum aisa kare jo dusro ko chahiye, aur uske badle mein koi expectation na rakhe. Seva wo hai – when you do something for someone and don’t ask for anything in return. Seva- I have to do like what he does.

Q. Guruji aksar hum ye dekhte hai ki bure log hi oopar chadhte hai

A. Those who do bad, they only seem to be happy, cannot sleep in peace, cant eat happily. Howmuch ever they go up, they will fall down one day in such a way that they will not be able to get up. Mann men vishwaas rakho ki mein achcha karta hoon to mere saath achcha hi hoga, aur iske liye bhi yukti chahiye (to know if you are doing right or wrong).

Q. Guruji aisa maante hai ki agar hum is janam mein netra-daan (eye donate) karte hai to agle janam mein andhe ho jaayenge

A. Nahi ye baat bilkul galat hai.

Q. Guruji, I love you, but kya mein aapke paas kuch maang sakta hoon?

A. Arrey bhai, yahan nahi maangoge to kahan maangoge? Lekin aapko tabhi milega jab zaroori hoga.

Q. Guruji, you come in my dreams, is it true or just a whimze?

A. I’ll reply to this in your dreams only..haahahh



Feb 28, 2010 Evening Satsang



Said, Guruji I love you and someone said Guruji you are looking really good

Sri Sri – Kuch naya batao… Teri meri preet puraani…

Q. Gurudev, aap humaare ghar kab aaoge?

A. I thought I was there only, arrey kab nikala tumne mujhe?

Q. Guruji avataar kya hota hai?

A. Avtaar maane ootra hua, jinko kuch nahi chahiye, jo apne khudhe koi karam kaatne ke liye nahi aaye, jo khudd ke liye kuch nahi chahte, unhe avatar kehte hai.

Q. Kya kumbh mein nahana zaruri hai?

A. Not really, Ganga mein kahi bhi jaao, Hrishikesh mein jao, Haridwar, jao, aise parv pe to kahi bhi nahao, Ganga khudd pahuch jaati hai wahan.

Q. Guruji Ganga ko pavitra kyu maana jaata hai?

A. Saalo se Rishi-Muniyon ne yahan bahut tap kiye hai…Brahm ki Brahm roop…Swayam hi santaani punanti tirtha. Kanpur jaise anek tirth sthal hai jo aaj bahut ashudhdh (untidy) ho gaye hai, jahaan shudhdh ho wahan nahana chahiye, lekin maanyata to apna kaam karti hi hai.

Q. Guruji Ram ne Sita ka tyaag kiya, did he also become a football of peoples opinion?

A. Ram did not do the AOL course…hahahaha Hare k avatar mein kuch na kuch galtiyaan thi, unn galtiyaan ko mat dekho (look into their deeds)

Q. Guruji what should be done when the Husband wants to be on the path and the wife doesnot or vice – versa?

A. Yukit apnani padegi…Aap apne staan par bane raho, who piche piche aane lagegi…(‘He was very serious when ‘He said this)

Q. Guruji, mujhe bahut bure vichaar aate hai, kya karoon?

A. Unko ek jhappi de do, bhaag jaayege!!!

Q. Guruji kya hum ek samay pe do spiritual Gurus ko follow kar sakte hai?

A. Ek marg apnao, magar samman aur pranaam sabko karo

Q. Gurudev, jeevan laziness aur lust ho, to kya karna chahiye?

A. Prem mein pado, aalas nikal jaayega. Shareer ki taraf anand aur prem ho, to vaasna nahi aati. Trupti hai, masti hai, to aalas nahi aata. Ishwar mein mann lag jaaye – aatmarati- to vaasna bhaag jaati hai.

Q. Guruji agar vishraam mein Ram hai, to aalas mein kya galat hai?

A. Tamo-gunn se aalas aata hai, Tamo-gunn nahi hota tab vishraam. Vishraam achche se karoge to taazgi mehsoos karoge. Agar pade rahoge, to aalas ke saath saath thakaan bhi mehsoos hogi. Shareer ko aaram nahi milta to na Ram na Vishraam. Jis mann mein jwar nahi hai wah prasannata se bhara hua hai, tab sankalp sidhdh hote hai. Dukh se chaah aur chaah se dukh, isi chakravyuh mein fas jaate hai. Mujhe chaah chodni hai, mujhe chaah chodni hai, aise mat sochte raho, forget this, bhai is chaah ko mat chodo, kahin rakh do, MUJHE DE DO… Ichcha bhikhmangepan ki nishaani hai, bhai nahane jaate ho tab to katora niche rakhna hoga!!!

Q. Guruji, I see you in meditation, is that meditation?

A. Yes, but dotn start talking to me then, mein bhi chupp, tum bhi chupp!!!

After this, Guruji insisted that everyone should listen to 7 Volumes of Antarang Varta

Someone gifted Guruji a huge pichkaari and ‘He said…

Abhi to khaali hai ye, fir bhi kaam aayegi, to jab bhar jaayegi tab to zarur kaam aayegi..tum bhi aise hi khaali ho jaao!!!

Q. Guruji aap mere sapne mein aate ho aur humein bahut kuch kehte ho, kya ye sach hai?

A. To kya humein ab ye bhi kehna padega ki “Mein jo kahoonga sach kahoonga, aur sach ke siwa kuch nahi kahoonga? Then what Guruji said was pretty much paradoxical….Arrey, aaj tak to humne aisa kabhi nahi kaha. Suno, mein jo kehta hoon, who sach nahi hota, kyoki sach ko kaha nahi jaata…

Q. A young guy stood up and said, Guruji, me and my friends did the ocurse together. There has been a vast difference in them- in what they were before and what they ar now after doing the course, but I don’t see any change in me, why so?

A. Aap jeevan mein humesha upar-aage badhte ho, koi dheere dheere to koi chupp chaap achanak unche nikal jaata hai. Everybody neednot have a dramatic jump-dramatic experience. Hum apne hi jeevan ko piche mudkar parakhte hai to samajh mein aane lagta hai.

Q. Holi ko shudro ka tyohaar kyu maana jaata hai?

A. Nothing like this. Kisi pandit ne ghused diya hoga. Humaari sanskriti tiki hui hai Raamayan aur Mahabharat par. Samaaj, school, college mein in sab ko afwa maana jaata hai, theek se sikhaya nahi jaata. Arrey bhai agar ye sab sach nahi hota to tum ise sammna ki drishti se kaise dekhoge? Agar ye sach nahi hota to how would it have left such a deep impact on the society even today? Ye to desh ke atma samman ko cheenne waali baat ho gayi agar Ram aur Krishna ko kalpanik kahoge. Also, remains od Dwarka and Ramnagari have been found…

Q. Why do you have Sri Sri twice in your name? Can we address you as God in public?

A. Don’t use this for publicity. When I am asked regarding the name, I say three times was too much so…These people ask just for the sake of it, they are not even bothered about your answer. Sabhi prashno ka jawab dene ki zarurat nahi hai. Just smile, vaad-vivaad nahi karna. Hum apne bhaav se saamnewale ko banate hai, jaisa bhaav karoge waisa hi saamnewala hoga.

Q. I am a student, I have higher goals, and don’t have much of time, how much Seva should I do?

A. There is nothing such as small and big in Seva. Samarth zyaada zaruri hai, thodi seva karo aur padho.

Q. Guruji, I lack self confidence, what should I do?

A. Haaar sweekar karo, hare ko hari naam, hare ko balwaan…

On Dhuleti day in the Pandaal

Ye jo rang aap lekar jaa rahe ho,oose apne tak hi seemit mat rakhna, use oodhelna, jiski taraf dekhkar smile karo who khush ho jaaye!!!

life learnt in kolkata

i came to kolkata on 16th of aug for work, as i am into manufacturing of ladies handbags, kolkata turns out to be the cheapest. the trip was supposed to be for few days! today is 1st September, and hey! i am still here!
In these 15days time span, what i learnt- bengalis are superb to delegate their work. i came here as a client and became their labourer. all the work of sourcing of fabric to accessories to printing to make bags....well aha.. they made me do everything. the reason being me being a mumbaite, one learns to work, think and act smart and fast. so deliveries to my client is time bound. so i needed the goods! when to give is bengalis trade mark- in their own sweet time...but hey they turned out to be smarter- they made me work! :-)
how spirituality is helping me in this kolkata(material) world...each moment passes...its teaching me patience, perseverance, compassion. how to control your anger, not to let your spirit go down at any cost, doesn't matter if food, transportation, sleep is not in your lap....as its in natures hand! that s what i have learnt and am learning, the difficult time that i feel is so difficult could have been worse(viz. i have a friend's house to stay-otherwise????) . i am staying away from all the things and people i love. dispassion and celebrating at the same time. though there are times where you really want sympathize with your self....oh it feels so good! but then you become victim of it so easily! best of all...you can feel master's grace flowing like Ganges!

so long...
