Where to start?
Just do this much,
before you go to bed today
one thing is
every hour
remind yourself
right now its gonna be 8 o clock,
8 o'clock, remind yourself, WOW! I'am still alive
no, don't laugh
so many people who go to bed today
will not wake up tomorrow morning
more that a million people in the planet
will not wake up tomorrow morning
tomorrow morning, suppose you wake up
yes,
who knows?
you are always thinking it's not me,
it's going to be somebody
very cruel
tomorrow morning, if you do wake up, first check
"Am I really awake"
alive
'I'm still alive"
"wow'
don't have to do anything,
don't have to scream or something
at least one big smile, I'm still alive,
over a million people didn't wake up tonight
but here I'm, alive, fantastic or no?
what's the biggest thing in your life?
you are alive right now?
so if you're still on tomorrow morning,
just give one big smile "wow"
then, maybe you have 3-4 people
who matter to you much in your life,
just check
he and she, that one and this are alive
all alive, great!
if 1 million people die tonight,
which they do every night,
at least 10 million people lost somebody
who was dear to them
but, none of those who are very dear to you
are gone today, fantastic or no?
Crowd: YES!
another great smile, don't tell anybody just smile okay?
Great
8 'o' clock in the morning, wow 8 o clock', still alive.
Every 1 hour just do this exercise, okay?
Every 1 hour just remind yourself, check on.
Please understand this,
if you think about God you will become hallucinated
Only when you are conscious about your mortality,
will you want to truly know the nature of this life
When you know
you're on right now,
and tomorrow morning you might be poof, gone
Now you want to know, what the hell?
what is this?
I'm real right now! But tomorrow morning, gone!
so many people,
who are so real and on, are suddenly gone
Can't believe, where did they go?
But you thought about it for 10 minutes
and then you got busy,
you had to text your father is dead
But, remind yourself of your own mortality,
let the question deepen.
If you can do it every moment,
its great, if cannot at least once an hour
Remind yourself that you are mortal,
you are not not immortal, you are mortal
if you know that you are mortal,
suddenly you will see in a few days
you have no time to do any nonsense
which doesn't mean anything to you.
You will do only what really matters to your life
you have no time to do any rubbish
with anybody, you will have time only to
do the best things that you want to do,
what you truly care to do in your life,
and nothing other than that
and that's what you should be doing
because its very limited amount of time.
[Applause]
i want you to know,
its a very brief life, that is if you are a joyous person,
if you are a miserable person of course it is a long life
if you are joyful, if you live for 100 years its gone,
too quickly.
if you are miserable what a long life you will live
so, its a very brief life,
you shouldn't be doing anything
other than what truly matters to you, isn't it?
But you are doing so much nonsense
that doesn't mean anything to you,
simply because you think you're immortal
Otherwise people are Saying no
I will live up to 80 maybe till 100,
so no I will do this at 70,
I will smile at my neighbors when I am 75
when all my work is done
When all the property issues have settled,
after that I will smile at him
There is no such guarantee
Does anybody here come with a guarantee
card for two days?
No, you could be dead tomorrow morning!
Not wishing that, I bless you a long life,
but it's possible right?
Everyday it's happening to a million people means,
cant it be you or tomorrow morning I'm asking?
yes or no?
YES
If you're conscious of your mortality,
becoming aware will naturally happen,
because the significance of being alive will blossom
You use all kinds of words,
which are straight from the American coasts,
mindfulness, awareness, mental-alertness
no you need to seperate these things.
Being mentally alert will help you to survive better.
If i am mentally alert I can drive better,
do my work better, I can do something else better
Its survival
right
Awareness is not about survival,
when I first asked you, the question
how do you know that you're here?
You went down and said that you are conscious,
only because you are aware that your alive!
Your awareness is aliveness, your aliveness is awareness.
The question is only about how alive?
A lot of people think if they are 50 percent alive
its pretty good
Yes, you can survive 50 percent,
but you need to understand
if we want to torture somebody,
if you want to torture somebody,
what would you do? Would you kill them?
Suppose if you got employment in hell, let's say,
you are given the job of torturing people,
what would you do, kill them?
No...
...Keep them half alive.
[Laughs and applause]
If you keep them half alive, that's called torture.
So right no this is called self-torture,
maybe you are preparing for employment elsewhere.
Because right from he age of two or three,
people or parents are asking you
what will you become?
what will you become?
Well I am born a human being
I am supposed to strive to become a human being
See every life on this planet,
whether an bird, insect, animal, tree whatever.
Every one of them is striving
to become a full-fledged live and that's all
A worm is trying to be a full fledged worm,
a tree is trying to be a full fledged tree,
that's all a Human being also,
to become a full fledged Human Being!
No no, what will you become means,
what kind of job will get, form the age of 3!
This madness has come because of whatever,
the last century of poverty in this country,
people are so deprived,
and they think if they don't have a job
they wont eat anything
You know? It comes from a certain poverty consciousness,
you must pass it, that generation is past!
Right now
if you have a few brain-cells working,
you can make a living, yes?
You don't have to be qualified for anything,
you have a few brain-cells working in your head,
you can make a living. That's not an issue anymore.
There was a time it was like that.
It's no more like that.
It's time we leave that, it's not about what we will become,
how will we be?
What will be the experience of your life?
Will it be the peak experience,
or will it be just the mediocre nonsense?
This is the question!
Because once you come as a Human being,
whatever happens is not enough,
something more needs to happen, yes or no?
You may think you are doing different things,
the man who goes to the temple.
the man who goes to the bar,
the man who goes to work,
the man who goes to conquer the world
every one of them is just seeking a larger slice of life.
Some people go the mall,
some people go to the PDS,
Just like that, some people think it comes from the temple,
so they go there
Somebody else go to conquer the world,
somebody else go shopping,
what is it you are trying to do?
Just trying to have a larger slice of life
But it doesn't matter,
if you gather the whole world around you,
you will not have a larger slice.
Your larger slice will happen only
if your ability to perceive is enhanced!
If your ability to experience is not enlarged,
then you can have everything around you
but still your experience is the same!
Modern life is just that,
no other generation
had the things we are having around us!
Most homes are looking like a warehouse!
[Laughs]
Because they have shopping trips,
they dot know where to keep it,
everything is falling all over the people,
there's no place for the people
Full of things,
but does it bring well-being or happiness or anything?
No!
You cannot determine the
experience of what's happening within you from outside,
it has to happen from within
and it is how enlarged your experience is;
is how big your life is.
Not about, socially how big people think you are;
that may work socially a few things for you
but it doesn't work in terms of life
So when we say awareness,
we are talking about the essential ingredient of life,
because only because you are aware;
you are alive, isn't it so?
Yes?
Now the question is, how alive?
If we had to use an analogy,
right now this light is blinding me.
Now if you reduce the voltage,
it will be like this, it will only light up this much
But they want it to light up everything
so they turn up the voltage,
so if you turn down the voltage you will see
only this much,
if you turn it up you will see that much,
if you really turn it up you will see the entire hall
Awareness is the same thing,
because your conscious that you are aware
you know something,
if you become a little more aware,
you will know something more
a little more aware, then something more
All these words are connected, Pragna
The word Guru, all these things are connected, because
pregna, means you are conscious!
Because you are conscious
depending on the intensity of your consciousness,
accordingly your vision
of everything around you is enhanced
Now the word GURU means
'GU' means darkness, its a 4 letter word know,
'RU' means dispeller.
So guru is not meant to teach you something
He is not suppose to give you a philosophy,
Not suppose to give you an ideology,
It is just that he is suppose to through little more light
Little more light means
Suppose if this hall is dark and you are only able to
see the first two rows, you're not able to see the end
If I flash the torch light,
you saw, oh all these people!
It's a whole world out there!
But I switched off the torch
then you will know,
there is something and now I have to see
What do I need? I need a torch on my own
Ok? This is the job
because the children in the home
where I am staying they declaring;
he is not like a guru!
he doesn't talk like a guru, he doesn't look like a guru,
he is doesn't walk like a guru, he is not a guru!
I'm very glad I'm getting certified!
Yes Yes
Now, about seeing everything
the way it is, because if I want to walk through this,
there's a whole lot of people right now, belief systems.
You believe in God, alright?
Now, I know the corporate world,
people have shifted this I believe in myself'
which is somewhat misplaced, but that's ok.
both are misplaced,
and they produced different kinds of impact,
absolutely
belief means what?
Essentially belief means,
you are unwilling to admit
what you do not know as I do not know,
whatever you do not know you believe
If you believe what it does to you is,
it will give you confidence.
Confidence without clarity is a disaster.
Right now let us say,
I cannot see this people, my vision is not clear,
but I have great confidence.
I am going to walk through these people
You know what I will do,
I will step over everybody and go!
Because I am very confident,
there's a whole lot of people like this.
If my vision is clear,
I will go through this without touching anybody.
If my vision is not clear, and I have no confidence
I will ask, please can somebody show me the way
But now I have no clarity,
but I have confidence, its a disastrous process.
So, believing in god, believing in yourself,
believing anything means,
its just a "B" word, you know
you're just bullshitting yourself about something
you do not know
right right
What is the problem?
What I know,I know, what I do not know, I do know,
What is the problem with this?
If this much sincerity enters your life,
come to this much; what I know I know,
what I do not know I do not know,
I don't believe anything, I don't disbelieve anything,
I am willing to look at everything
You will become a sensible human being,
and every hour you remind yourself you are mortal,
and celebrate with a smile that you are still alive.
You will see wonders will happen to you
Thank you. Great!
