versus the universe is a bad competition to get into would you also agree with me so this is via yoga yoga does not mean twisting and turning your body the word yoga means Union right now it's me versus the universe this is just your psychological condition this is not the reality even when you feel utterly lonely are you still breathing so you're transacting with the world isn't it yes you only can't get along with the people around you but atmosphere is okay with you food is okay if it tastes good water is okay you have transaction with the world isn't it Your Existence is constantly an engagement with the universe but your mind becomes against the universe if you create a psychological condition that you are against or you're in competition with the universe or the cosmos obviously you will feel crushed for small things little things will crush you most people are carrying such a huge baggage on their head as if they are carrying the whole universe on their head this is their own psychological condition your thought and emotion is what you're talking about right when are you going to figure out how to handle your thought and emotion not hers not hers not his yours when are you going to learn how to handle my thought and my emotion at the end of your life the only problem really with life is just this most human beings have taken themselves too seriously they don't understand you've seen on the computer screen these pop-ups you are a pop-up on this planet you pop up for two seconds and pop out this happened Shankar and pillai when he was in Paris was married to a French woman one day it was their anniversary first anniversary so she invited a bunch of friends and she wanted to cook something really fresh everything fresh so from morning she was driving him to this Market that market he got this fresh vegetables fresh meat fresh chicken this that everything then in the evening she said because the French have this uh you know snail appetizer she said go to the beach and get some snails fresh and I will make some appetizers for all the friends who are coming so Shankar and pillai went to the beach and he was picking up all the snails and putting it in a bucket then he met her old friend an Indian guy they hit it off and they were talking about their old times he just forgot that he's married you know when you meet old friends it happens and both of them went to a bar and they had a few drinks and he just forgot then he realized then the snails were just climbing out and talk one fave snail fell out of the bucket he realized oh my God I'm supposed to take this Nails my wife French wife she's waiting so he said I need to go and he went but then it was already very late he went he knew is not going to be pleasant so he came near the house and spilled all the snails on the ground threw away the bucket and went and knocked on the door the French Fury came he turned back and said come on you guys we're almost there come on let's go [Applause] so when are you going to pick your snails and put them in the bucket and fix them huh your problems you must fix them isn't it these are not problems I want you to understand you are not suffering your life you're only suffering two fantastic faculties that only it's a privilege of being human that we have these two fantastic faculties one is we have a vivid sense of memory this is because of this memory our life is so rich unlike any other creature and we have a fantastic sense of imagination now this is what you're suffering what happened 10 years ago you can still suffer why are you suffering life or memory hello memory what may happen day after tomorrow you're already suffering he are you suffering life or imagination to two most fantastic faculties you have you are suffering so what are you asking for you want to become once again an earthworm is a very eco-friendly creature I have nothing against it but it took millions of years of evolution to get you at this size of brain and now you're suffering it if we take away half your brain of course you will sit there without any anxiety without any suffering peacefully what we need is we need to remove your brain because you are suffering your own intelligence yes or no because we gave you a very complex machine you have not bothered to read even the user's manual you want to just blunder around no young people it's time you figure out a few things about you if you don't know how we will give you tools how to figure this machine out because in your life many issues will come more issues come up in your life means you're living a more active life nothing came up means you're not living if you have gone through tough situations in life or horrible situations in life let's say is it not important that you become wiser sooner than other people sooner than other people who've grown up in Comfort who do not know what it is to see those things is it not very important that you should become wiser no instead you choose that you also become miserable because they were miserable people so let us understand this much you have an intelligence to recognize that they are living badly how come you don't have an intelligence to recognize you are living badly right now and you don't even have the fundamental Integrity to see if I am living badly it is me who is making this because there may be situations and situations for every one of us there are situations in fact the more you try to do in the world the more and more many ugly situations you will have to face whether you like it or you don't like it okay now because you face ugly situations will you also become ugly or you will use this as manure to blossom into your wonderful flower this is a choice that you have so everything that hurts us everything that in some way is negative to in a given situation whether you will become wise or you will become wounded is your choice do not look for ideal situations because there is no such place there is no no such place wherever you go there will be something happening that you think is negative I want you to understand for you to come to this level of intelligence it's taken millions of years of work of evolution to get you here to the peak of evolution on this planet so being the peak of evolution are we displaying that we are the top of the world are we no we want to sit on somebody else's head and think top of the world no we are already top of the world as human beings isn't it so but look at the way we are behaving all the time complaining about something or the other let us understand this what the world throat throws at us he is not necessarily your choice but what you make out of it is entirely your choice yes what you make out of it is entirely your choice your experience of life this much you must come to every one of you young people if you want if you want your potential to open up in the world one important thing that you must fix in your life is your experience of life either peacefulness or agitation either Joy or misery blissfulness or you know suffering whatever it is your experience your experience is entirely made by you other people are doing what they want their drama they're conducting it is your reaction to that which is causing these experiences to you so the privilege of being human being is this that we have an intelligence to determine what should be our experience of life other creatures are in a natural instinctive compulsive reaction we are supposed to be above that but most human beings are trying to disprove this and they are also in a compulsive state of reaction in their spiritual traditions many spiritual traditions always Sangha another Association are to be in the right kind of company has always been a very important part of one's growth because rarely are there human beings just a small percentage who irrespective of where they are they will still stay on course all other human beings need support if they are not in the right company there's very little chance of them doing the right things unfortunately that's a reality it is not necessarily a misfortune because what this means is they are open to influence it is the responsibility after social fabric to create the right atmosphere for every individual to grow towards what is beautiful for the individual and for everybody else around him but not always are rarely societies conduct this responsibility in the right sense because societies are not LED Society societies are allowed to go through a metamorphosis [Music] depending upon what is the influence in that direction it crosses so be to be under the right kind of influence an influence which nurses nurtures you towards your ultimate truth and influence which grips gives you the necessary courage and strength to walk the path of integrity because with a weak sense of Integrity nobody is ever going to be spiritual and this must be understood that four bad things to hit you it need not necessarily be aimed at you if you just happen to be in the wrong type of ambiance negative things can hit you that reminds me to terrorists who are preparing envelope bombs postal bombs after having done quite a few one asked dada have you filled enough do you think we have filled enough RDX into the envelopes the other said why don't you open it and see he said oh it will explode if I open it I said you fool it's not even addressed to you it need not be addressed to you you open the wrong cane it'll blow up in your face this is so in the world this is so within you there are lots of bins in your head you open up the wrong when worms will crawl out you open up another bin fragrance will come out of it have you noticed yourself have you yourself noticed within you if you open certain part of your mind filth will come out if you open Another Part of Your Mind fragrance will come out have you not noticed to be conscious enough to be in the right company so that filth will not be tolerated so that you open up the fragrance within you not the filth is an important part of one's growth Within the geography of your body there is filth and fragrance which one do you open up for yourself and everybody around you that's a big question that takes a certain level of awareness and a certain company if you go around the ashram the geography of the ashram there must be at least eight or ten very filthy tanks these are called septic tanks full of septic if you every day go sit there of course you'll come to the conclusion Isa Yoga Center is the filthiest place on the planet if you fall into it Isha yoga is the most horrible experience in your life so to fall into the right place it is a certain talent you have to grow into it you have to mature into it you always know how to be in the right place if you're in the company of Truth your interiority is Pleasant if your interiority is Pleasant naturally Pleasant things come towards you and you will also have a tendency to move towards Pleasant things if you make your entirely unpleasant you will attract unpleasant things and you will also move towards unpleasant things when you're in a bad mood you will seek five other people who are in a bad mood no no when you're in a bad mood you must seek fire people who are in a good mood isn't it no no but that's not the way when you're in a black mood you will seek five other people who are in the same mode isn't it that's just like going to the septic tank for a swim because you're depressed wrong way to handle life that's all I'm not saying you should not do it just not in your favor that's all it is just that you have become so self-sufficient you don't need any enemies anymore in your life there's a lot of self-sufficiency during another talk sad Guru enlightens you on breaking loose from bad influence even if it is from within the family say everybody is finding a certain excuse for their own miseries so my parents were like this so I am like this well this is unfixable because we can't change your parents now all right hello can we change them now so you need to understand this especially if you have gone through tough situations in life or horrible situations in life let's say is it not important that you become wiser sooner than other people sooner than other people who've grown up in Comfort who do not know what it is to see those things is it not very important that you should become wiser no instead you choose that you also become miserable because they were miserable people so let us understand this much you have an intelligence to recognize that they are living badly how come you don't have an intelligence to recognize you are living badly right now and you don't even have the fundamental Integrity to see if I am living badly it is me who is making this because there may be situations and situations what every one of us there are situations in fact the more you try to do in the world the more and more many ugly situations you will have to face whether you like it or you don't like it okay now because you face ugly situations will you also become ugly or you will use this as manure to blossom into your wonderful flower this is a choice that you have so everything that hurts us everything that in some way is negative to in a given situation whether you will become wise or you will become wounded is your choice do not look for ideal situations because there is no such place there is no no such place wherever you go there will be something happening that you think is negative whether it's negative or not I don't want to make a judgment but in a given place you think there is negative because in every place there are issues all right where there are two people there is an issue how we conduct these issues depends on are we in a state of conscious response to these issues or are we in some compulsive reaction to these issues this determines how we conduct ourselves this is become a syndrome all over the world because they've all read a little bit of Roy little bit of Maslow little bit of all this European psychiatric stuff and everybody is a psychiatrist because my parents were like this I am like this come on where is your intelligence if your parents were like this you must take a wow you will never ever be like that hello yes or no let us understand this what the world throat throws at us he is not necessarily your choice but what you make out of it is entirely your choice yes what you make out of it is entirely your choice your experience of life this much you must come to every one of you young people if you want if you want your potential to open up in the world one important thing that you must fix in your life is your experience of life either peacefulness or agitation either Joy or misery blissfulness or you know suffering whatever it is your experience your experience is entirely made by you other people are doing what they want their drama they're conducting it is your reaction to that which is causing these experiences to you if this is a worthless life throw it somewhere if this is a precious life what do you want to invest this life into without the any kind of influence somewhere you must stay by yourself at least for two three days and look at it what is it that I want to invest this precious life into but you must understand what you want to do is just a thought that you generate it and it's not even yours it's this is a wrong way to approach because you will have everything and you will have nothing in the end with life that one thing if you give up I'm telling you you live a very poor life see if you're a fool you will do something that you don't like to do if you're an intelligent person you will do what you love I am not somebody who ever debated is this the right thing to do in my life for every one of you your life is precious isn't it hello it's a precious life if something is precious where do you want to invest this life into what do you want to invest this precious life if this is a worthless life throw it somewhere if this is a precious life what do you want to invest this life into if you look at it this way you will find something truly worthwhile to do if you think in terms of how to earn a living how to get this kind of thing that kind of thing then you will do something silly that you will regret for the rest of your life most people are a regret that's why they're going around joylessly because they're not doing what they want to do they are not creating what really matters to them they're doing something for a living earning a living is not a big deal for a human being Every Creature every worm insect bird animal is earning the living isn't it so with such a big brain what is a big deal about earning a living but unfortunately because of 10 to 20 years of generations not years 10 to 20 generations of poverty in this country because of external occupations and Innovations and staff because of that people have gotten into this mode how to earn a living how to earn a living parents are constantly grilling their children how will you earn your living with such a big brain when an earthworm can earn its living such a big brain is earning a living issue no what is it that you're going to create this precious life where are you going to invest it are you going to invest it in something that's truly worthwhile or are you going to throw it away as a worthless thing this is the important thing because what you call as my life is just a certain amount of time and energy isn't it so time is going away so this energy that you call is my life how are you going to invest it because it's going to if you are doing something truly worthwhile it gets over before you know what happened only if you're doing something worthless it feels like a long life joyful people life goes away like that as if it's a couple of days it passes away like that if you are creating what you really care to create so one thing that every young person should do is without the influence of the peers of your own age group without the influence of your professors and your parents without the any kind of influence somewhere you must stay by yourself at least for two three days and look at it what is it that I want to invest this precious life into what is it that will be worthwhile today and worthwhile after 50 years for me to invest myself into you invest your life into that whatever it is however small big it doesn't matter if you see that this is something truly worthwhile and you invest your life in that this will be a life of fulfillment but you must understand what you want to do is just a thought that you generate it and it's not even yours it's something that you pick up from around you well there may be certain aptitude so one is aptitude do you have a certain aptitude towards a certain action so are you thinking in that direction or a whole lot of people today are deciding what to do depending upon what they will get out of it what will I get will I get this kind of Lifestyle will I get this kind of salary will I make this kind of money and lifestyle this is what they're thinking of this is a wrong way to approach because you will have everything and you will have nothing in the end with life you must not do something because he's doing it you must not do something because he's not doing it this is not the way to decide things you are investing your life if this life is precious you must see what is it that really matters to you and you must do that it doesn't matter it pays it doesn't pay but believe me if your heart is not in something really you will not do your best yes or no if you don't do your best how will great things happen to you see whether it is Art music design business sport spirituality politics it doesn't matter what it is if you are not absolutely devoted to what you're doing you will never do anything significant in your life that's for 100 I'm telling you you may earn a living but you will not do anything significant if you are not totally totally devoted to something so the question is not about what you want to do the question is just this can you be devoted to this let's say you think in terms of today if I invest my life next 25 years can I be devoted to what I'm doing right now will this matter to me will I feel fulfilled if I look back and see what I have done something you do whatever the hell you want just do it well that's important and don't do any damn thing that you will be ashamed of doing tomorrow isn't it what other people say it doesn't matter but you should not be ashamed of what you have done isn't it so hello this much you must keep this much pride and freedom you must keep in your life it doesn't matter the whole world says you're wrong but you are not ashamed of what you have done that much you must always keep in your life if that one thing if you give up I'm telling you you live a very poor life you may have everything but you'll have nothing if you are joyful by your own nature what I want to do is not important what is needed right now you will do that with absolute devotion so if you can be devoted to anything that you do what does it matter what does it matter you will do what is most needed isn't it you must do what's most needed actually I think somewhere else I said see if you're a fool you will do something that you don't like to do if you are an intelligent person you will do what you love but if you really want to be a genius in your life you will do whatever is needed with absolute joy and involvement it's no more about me because you can do anything with total involvement so what's the problem I'm sorry right now designer there are there are two ways of looking at design when we say design we may be thinking of Designing a building or clothing or something else material stuff but the most important thing is your life must be designed right you must be a designer life yes design designer life means or designer anything means it's just the way you want it your life must be a designer life isn't it it must happen the way you want it it doesn't matter whether they approve it or not it must happen the way you want it this can happen only within you because outside world is not completely mine or yours little will happen my way little will happen your way this is the way it is but what's Within Me must happen my way isn't it this is a designer life because I design my thought I design my emotion I design my experience I design my chemistry every day how it should be so you must have a designer life there are no right things to do in life you should choose something and put everything that you have into it it'll become a great thing is it the right thing is it the best thing when you say is it the right thing what you're asking is is it the best thing to do in life there is no best thing to do in life and today you hear one day you'll be poop done what do you think is your duty to this life and to every life please tell me you are a brief life you're a brief life I wanted to just imagine you've seen those insects which come when it rains you know ants which fly suppose you are that you just came alive gone that's what you are just compared to the span of your life the insect's life is looking so meaningless and gone that's what the rivers are thinking about you poop and gone yes or no compared to their lifespan you are just like that insect or less than an insect isn't it so but you don't know what the insect is thinking but at least you I want you to think and say it's a bloody brief life suppose you remembered 100 lifetimes of coming up flying around falling in love reproducing suppose you remembered 100 happenings like this would it become in English because of loss of memory everything is looking fresh so are you doing the right thing I don't know sir all I know is this needs to be done and those who do it with all that they have will find fulfillment I am not somebody who ever debated is this the right thing to do in my life what was needed I jumped into it because if you're a constipated life you will always be thinking about what to do what not to do what to do what not to do what is my passion what is not my passion why the hell are you not passionate about everything why are you not passionate about everything in the existence your only passionate about one thing means what you constipated that's what it means I don't even have to tell people that this must happen this must happen this must happen a few things yes the rest of it I just make it up in my mind and I know it must happen and it will happen not because not because I am exercising my will over the world because I'm just fulfilling the will of the world that's all Being Human we all want a sense of fulfillment and purpose because that's the key to overcoming the obstacles along our life's journey it only takes a little self reminder to keep in mind that pursuing the one thing you actually want to achieve in life will help you find a way
