Q: Guruji,
I have all good qualities but milk only one bad habit. Is it ok?
Sri
Sri: No certainly not. It’s like one drop of lemon on one big vessel
of milk. What will happen? It will go spoilt. You must be aware. You must be careful. Ok? You know and one more thing, since
you are all doing Padmasadhana regularly now in your TTC. Some chakras or something inside your body may open up. You will
start feeling energetic and very good. All of a sudden you will feel attracted to someone. (Laughter!!) Getting attracted
is no wrong. But you will loose your focus from the class! (Laughter!!) Your teacher will go on teaching you something and
you will go on looking at that person!! Your mind is occupied! All your love affair, you should have before and after TTC
not during the TTC. TTC is TTC. Where you are going through a process. Your interest is only knowledge, knowledge and knowledge!!
When I was in California, we were looking for a place to start up a center. We used to say, we need three thin Location, Location
and Location!! For the time being keep all your other things aside. It’s a matter of few more days anyways. Ok? Very
good!
Q: Guruji
why does people blow conch?
Sri Sri: Conches
were blown at the battlefield to announce war! (Laughter!!) So don’t blow it here. Especially in the night. You can
blow it in the morning to wake up people. Ok all the birthdays may come on stage. ‘He ananda, Nanda nanda.
Sri Sri: How
are you all? Should we sing more or discuss? Discuss? See I got you pulse! (Laughter!!)
Q: There
is a saying “trees that have its roots up and the branches underneath”.. What does it mean?
Sri
Sri: Trees that has roots in the sky and branches downwards.. is that your
question? Yeah, that’s an analogy you know, a simile. That is when things are all upside down in that realm. If the
tree is growing upwards with its roots down and branches up that is natural. But if the branches are going downwards then
it symbolizes adharma. Used like a simile. That means you have to set things right there. In life when things are topsy-turvy
to have to keep things straight!! That’s the message there.
Q: Guruji, what is the meaning of the word Bhajan?
Sri
Sri: In Sanskrit the word Vibhajan means separation. Therefore the word
Bhajan means togetherness. When we all are together and have only one thought, and that is the thought of the Lord, it is
Bhajan. We are together thinking about that Eshwara, then there is a lot of shakti in that. And what else do we do? We clap.
Clapping brings you in the present moment. Tell me if you are very happy what do you do? You clap. Right? Someone is very
happy how do they express? By clapping! All throughout the world.... There is this practice.
Q: Guruji, many people come everyday and attend the Satsang. Most of them don’t
even know what they are coming here for? After sometime they don’t come.. what could be done with this?
Sri
Sri: Leave about others. Krishna says “…” [not transcribed]
Which means, there are crores of people who take birth and out of that only a few come to the path. And out of that few who
pursue the path, only a few reach me, understand me. Thousands come and go, don’t think about them. You think about
yourself. Again Krishna said, “…” [not transcribed] Which means, even out of several Munis and Siddhas,
only a few reach me.
Q: Guruji
what is Dasha-angula?
Sri Sri: Dasha
angula means, we have pancha (five) Gyanindriyas and pancha Karmaindriyas. What are the gyanindriyas? They are the sight,
the ears, etc and the Karmaindriyas are the hands, legs, words.. like that. Ten dimensions are there. And the one who has
all the ten dimensions is a Purusha.
Q: Guruji,
I am feeling very empty right now. Feeling like nothing. Why?
Sri
Sri: Do you have a smile on your face? Are you happy? That’s good!
Then that’s how it should be!
Q: Often
when I am doing seva, I think I have other responsibilities also, which need my equal attention. That’s the time I feel
extremely insecure. Guruji how do I get rid of my insecure feelings?
Sri
Sri: You know, perhaps you are unaware of your capabilities. And you are
unaware that nature loves you and supports you. Once you know that you have the ability, then you know your life is made.
All your wishes, which are good for you, will get fulfilled. That’s why you know, in India our National Flag has this
saying, “Satyameva Jayate” which means Truth will always triumph! Our every note, currency, it is there, “Truth
will always triumph!”
