The Satsang

In Search of Miracles. From the time immemorial human beings are searching continuously what they call miracles, extraordinary happenings. Almost all religions, all the spiritual groups, all the spiritual societies, are answers for the great happenings in the planet Earth which can’t be explained logically. There are so many thousands of things happening which is beyond logic, whenever anybody tries to explain the things which is beyond logic it creates a new religion. All our search, all our seeking, all our effort to find solution, to find answer for what is happening beyond our logic, what we call miracles. All our effort to demystify the miracles created new new new religions, different kinds of spiritual theories, different kind of understanding about these energies.

3:17. First let us understand the word miracle. There is nothing on this planet Earth which is miracle actually. Patanjali declares very clearly the greatest spiritual navigator ever born on the planet Earth, Patanjali. Patanjali’s a person who declared first time there is no such thing as miracle happens on the planet Earth. Whatever happens has got clear cause, cause and effect. If you do not know the cause then you think it is miracle. You think it is something extraordinary. If you know the cause, you understand this cause and effect, if you do not know the cause you always think it is miracle.

4:28. Patanjali is the great spiritual navigator, master, who declared everything has got cause and there is nothing called miracle. He demystified the whole science and in a way he made the whole spirituality as a science, which is possible in everyone’s life. By nature man has got encased in us the curiosity to search in extraordinary things that is why from the time immemorial again and again and again he is searching something extraordinary, something supernatural, we don’t keep quiet just living the basic life, we want something more something more something more. So we search what is happening, what is happening in the planet Earth, what is happening in the sky, what is happening beyond. The search for the miracles continues.

5:56. Patanjali’s the first rishi who declared to open all the secrets, to open all the truths, he makes it as a science, which way, through which technique you can achieve which miraculous powers. First thing: he guides the people to achieve miracle powers. Next thing he teaches: whatever is happening is miracle. He gives a two kind of solutions for life. First to achieve, first he gives the techniques to achieve all the miracles. Next he teaches what the technique to see everything as miracle. According to me there is only two kind of lifestyle; one is living as though nothing is miracle, or, as though everything is miracle. There is only two kind of lifestyle. For both lifestyle Patanjali gives methods, he illuminates a new path for human beings to travel, he shows a new way and he demystifies whatever he called as miracles step-by-step, step-by-step he explains the different kind of miracles and how those energies can be achieved, how you can penetrate.

Now, I wanted to analyze one or two things. Search for miracles, is it going to help us? First let us analyze. Searching for this miracles is it going to help us in our practical day-to-day life. In a way it can create, encaged in us, it can create curiosity, it can give you the idea there is something beyond what you see with the five senses. It can give you inspiration that there is something more than what you see on the planet Earth. As an inspiration to search the extraordinary thing it is surely a big help but just searching for miracles itself is no way going to help you. As a starting step it can be a big inspiration to go towards the higher dimensions of life. That is why Patanjali says when you start searching for miracles, when you start searching for extraordinary things, naturally you understand there is one more dimension for your life, there is something more in your life than you un- than what you understand. But slowly slowly slowly you come to a clear understanding, you come to a clarity, you come to a realization that even miracles are not enough. You need to go beyond the miracles.

9:59. I always tell people there are two things: one is shakti to make your dreams into reality, that is what is miracle powers. Miracle power means you have power to make your dreams into reality, that is shakti. There is, next thing, (10:21 bhoti?) means realizing whatever is reality is nothing but your dream, making your dreams into reality is shakti. Realizing that your reality is nothing but dream is bhoti, intelligence. If your search for shakti leads you to bhoti then it is right. If your search for miracles if it leads you to experience whatever is happening is a miracle then your search is right. But if your search stops, just in few miracle powers, you miss the real miracle, which is universe, which is existence.

11:18. The greatest miracle is realizing the whole universe in your being, or your being, in the whole universe. When you travel in your search for search of a miracles, when you start in your path step-by-step you come upon a few miracle powers. If your energy is getting solidified in the second step you awake the power of intuition. Intuition means seeing the things before it happens.

12:04. People ask me, “Swamiji how can we see the things before it happens? It is just against the logic, it is just against the logic. How can we see before things happen?” It is not against the logic because whatever you think as past or future is nothing but the projection of present.

Now there is a new thing going on in the, among the science, the physics scientists (12:47xxx xxxx a new talk?) parallel universe. If black hole happens in some place, in some other some other corner of the universe big bang happens. Big bang and black hole, they continuously happen, parallelly. Continuously somewhere black hole is happening and the parallel side of the universe in the other side, same way, big bang is happening. If the big bangs are happening, black holes are happening. When you don’t know the connection you think it is the two independent incident. If you understand the connection, you will understand it is not two separate incidences. It is just cause and effect, that’s all. If there is even a single atom, single atom cannot move without creating effect in the other side of the universe. If an atom moves in this, in a place, the other side, parallelly another one atom moves. If you understand this parallel universe theory you will be able to understand your future and past are not two independent things, they are just deeply related to the present.

14:15. Understand that time as a shaft, actually time is a shaft, one side is past incidences, other side is future incidences, center: present. You will never touch the time shaft actually. You are always pulled in the past or by the future. You always live in the past or live in the future. You never touch the present moment. Present moment is the time through which you can touch this time shaft. Eternity is past, present, and future, all the three is eternity. But you can touch the eternity only in the present moment. If you are in the present moment, only then you can touch the eternity. If you touch the eternity, you can understand the past and future are not different from present. They are just extensions of present. From the past moment, this moment is taking birth. From this moment, next moment is taking birth. If you have the glimpse at least once of the present moment, if you live even for one moment in the present moment you will have clear glimpse, clear idea about the future.

15:50. Just yesterday in the Shakti Spurana Program one devotee questioned me, “Swamiji, sometimes I feel when I am in a party suddenly I feel the same party has happened in my life, I have been to the same house already once, and I feel suddenly the same incident is happening, and I feel in five minutes somebody is going to come or some incident is going to happen. Exactly in five minutes the same thing will happen. How this happens? Is it happening in only in my life or in everybody’s life? How I am feeling like this?” Then I asked there are any people, I asked how many of you have experienced the same thing in some time of your life, one other time of your life? You will be surprised more than 70% of the people raised their hands, and they say all of us had this experience in some time in our life. If you enter into some house suddenly you feel I have come to this same house and you know which side which room is and you straight go there. The same incident.

Yesterday I was surprised how many people, majority of the people, had this experience in their life at least more than once. When you experience the present moment at least once by mistake, actually by mistake only you fall into the present. We never enter into present consciously. Because if you enter into present consciously you will never move out of present moment. It…by mistake sometimes you suddenly fall into present moment, your consciousness drops into present moment. You are nothing to bother, nothing to worry or nothing to think, in those moments only you feel the glimpse of the future and you feel the same thing has happened already. In that moment you touch the time shaft, you experience the glimpse of the time shaft, when you touch the time shaft you experience the whole universe is nothing but the projection from present moment. Your past and your future is not two independent things. It is just deeply dependent on your present moment.

You will understand the bridge between your past and future, but we always miss, we always miss, we always miss the present moment. And not only that, not only we miss the present moment, we miss actual problem why we miss present moment. We never look into the present moment. We always find, we try to find solution to wrong method.

19:26. A small story, one American guy was travelling in London with a British gentleman and British lady. Both of them are sitting next to him in the train. The lady had a pet dog. Suddenly the dog jumped on him and pissed, made the whole area mess, dirty. Instead of apologizing, this British lady she started petting the dog, “Oh, you have old bladder, I should take care of you, I should do something to you.” After a few minutes this dog jumped again on that American guy and vomited. Again this lady instead of apologizing, she started petting the dog, “Oh, I should take you to the doctor immediately, you have some serious stomach trouble.” After five minutes again the dog jumped on him and now you know what he will do again. Understand, whatever it can do. Again this lady instead of apologizing she started petting the dog. Now it is too much. American guy simply got up, picked the dog, threw it out of the window. Simply threw it out of the window. Till this moment, the gentleman, British gentleman was keeping quiet. Now he started talking. “You American guys, driving the wrong side, measure with the wrong scale, now threw the wrong bitch out of the window.” You always throw the wrong bitch out of the window. We always try to find solutions by throwing the wrong bitch out of the window. In our life, whenever you find trouble, in the past or in the future, you try to work by al- by trying to alter the past or by trying to work directly on the future. But you cannot do both because both are not in your hands. You can’t do anything about the past. It’s already over. You can’t do anything about the future, because it has not yet happened.

You can do anything only in the present moment. But you never do anything related to the present moment. Doing something which is related to the present moment is what I call meditation. Meditation does not mean you will close your eyes and sit something, sit silently, chant some mantra, no, that is also one kind of meditation. But if you try to touch the present moment by any method, that is meditation. Any technique, any method, which brings you to the present moment is meditation. If eating can bring you to the present moment, if you can eat staying in the present moment, that can become meditation. Simply walking, if it can bring you to the present moment, if you can be in the present moment when you walk, walking is meditation. Just sitting, if you can bring yourself to the present moment, it is meditation. Anything which brings you to the present moment only can solve your problems. But we always throw wrong bitch out of the window. Again and again we miss the right bitch. In your life when you fall into the present moment by mistake, you always fall in the present moment by mistake, if you fall, you get the power of intuition. Whenever you feel suddenly same shit happened, next this is what is going to happen, and if it happens, be very clear, you have touched the time shaft. You have touched the time shaft.

24:14. Actually, if you can touch the time shaft more than 21 moment, 21 kshana, kshana means, not second, it is not second, in vedic system time is calculated psychologically not chronologically. There is two kind of times, one is chronological time, what ___ follows, another one is psychological time, what is follows. Kshana does not mean second, please be very clear, kshana means the gap between one thought and the other thought. Kshana means gap between one thought and another thought.

Let me explain the difference between psychological time and chronological time. Sometimes when you sit with somebody whom you really love and whose company you enjoy you do not even know that (five hours is) gone. You do not even know how the time is flying. If you sit with somebody, you feel bored, or disturbed, who tortures you, even ten minutes will not move, you will feel your ten minutes is a eternity. People say the eternal hell, why? Because in the hell never time moves. In the hell never time moves. The number of thoughts if it becomes more you feel time is not moving. If the number of thought becomes less you will realize time is flying. So in the east we always measure time based on the mental set up, based on the mental set up, that is why we always tell for the higher level achievers, for devatas our one year is one day for them. The one year of human beings is one day for devatas. Means, the number of thought is very less. If the number of thoughts are very less you will be in heaven. Please be very clear heaven and hell are not geographical. If it is geographical we would have sent 26:32 xxx satellite. No, it is not geographical, it is psychological. The more number of thoughts you are in hell, less number of thoughts you are in heaven. It is by number of thoughts we measure whether we are in hell or in heaven. It is a psychological time which decides whether you are in hell or heaven. If time flies, if you are enjoying, you are in heaven. It the time is not at all moving, it is just stagnant, you feel bored, then you are in hell. It is just the psychological set up not chronological.

If you can hold a time shaft just for 21 minutes, just for 21 kshana, not even minutes, 21 kshana, the word minute cannot be the right translation of word kshana because the very meaning itself is different. If you can, penetrate the time shaft consciously, 21 kshana, you will know your whole future, you will know your whole future. Just 21 kshana is more than enough to know the whole future, but, we never penetrate the present moment, we never allow ourself in the present moment. The morning if you are brushing your teeth you will be thinking of your office. If you are in the office you will be thinking of evening going to the beach. If you are in the beach you will be already planning of when to go back to the house. If you are in the house again you will start planning your next day work. If you are here you can be sure you are not here. If you are here, one thing is sure, you are not here. You always escape from the present moment even if you don’t have any worries to worry, even if you can’t get any reason to worry, you just start planning for future. And I have seen people if they don’t find any reason to worry they try their best to catch some reason. And if they can’t find, the next step is, today everything is going well, Swamiji, I don’t know what will happen tomorrow. And we always believe very strongly if today things go well tomorrow something bad is going to happen, something worse is going to happen. This very thought tomorrow something worst is going to happen, you are waiting for worst thing to happen, you are practically meditating for the worst thing to happen. You are literally waiting to get hurt. When you beg to get hurt naturally God graces you. When you wait to get hurt naturally He graces you, no other way, otherwise you find some reason and hurt yourself. When you don’t have any past things to worry you start creating something in the future to worry, to create. You never touch the present moment. You never penetrate the time shaft, that is why you never get the glimpse of the past or the future. When you touch the present you experience the intuition power.

30:16. The next level when your being becomes little more solid, in the next level of energy you get a next power we call, which we call siddhi, which we call the next siddhi. The next siddhi is altering the future. Understand the first level siddhi is knowing the future, the first level siddhi you can only know the future. The next level experience you get the power of altering the future. How this happens? How this happens? How can we change the future?

30:59. Yesterday a devotee was asking, “Swamiji, if there is a future how can we change the future?” If there is a free reign where is the destiny? If there is a destiny where is the free reign?” Understand one example, there is a beautiful example _________ Rama Krishna Paramahamsa, he says it’s like a cow tied on a post. The rope end is 5 meter. Inside the 5 meter cow has got freedom, it can sit, stand, go around, do whatever it want. But more than 5 meter the cow cannot go. Beyond the 5 meter it is destiny. But inside the 5 meter it has got clear field. If a cow behaves properly, if the cow doesn’t do anything wrong, the cow is properly, silently, not disturbing anybody there is every chance the owner will extend the length of the rope or free the cow totally. Same way, the free reign which is given to you, if it is handled properly, if it is used properly, if you don’t use it to hurt others or hurt yourself, please understand, not only hurting others, hurting yourself is same. When you continuously worry you are hurting yourself.

32:39. There is Upanishad sutra [Sanskrit…sutra….] Ananda, the bliss is existence, don’t waste it. You are wasting your life without living the natural bliss which is our nature. Every moment which you spend, which you live, without being blissful is wasting your life, and a deep disrespect on your life. Life itself is just a bliss. The very nature of life is joy and bliss. Every moment you spend in suffering is a disrespect to the life. Please be very clear your real puja your real worship is living joyfully and blissfully.

33:36. Somebody came and asked me, “Swamiji, in my house there is no peace please give me some technique, some method to bring peace.” I told her, “First thing, all of you sit together, eat together, spend time, laugh, dance, naturally you will see we have one understanding. This bliss, this joy, will bring more and more peace. Don’t fight for it with each other continuously. Just try to be blissful.” She said, “No, no, Swamiji, teach me some technique, some puja which can help, which can bring peace in my house.” Puja can bring when it is done honestly and spiritually that is true. She asked, “No, no, teach me some puja, should I do some ______ Lakshmi or guru _____ which puja to bring peace?” She is not ready to listen to the solution. Then I said, “What you need to do when you go inside the puja room do puja to Lakshmi when you come out ___________ your husband. ___________ peace come? How will you handle peace? It is a life solution that you need to follow more than any other ritual.

35:06. The greatest puja is how to be blissful, how to be more joyful. Every moment which you spend in worrying and suffering is disrespect to the life and God, because He is the person who gave you the life. If you disrespect a rose, the person who gave you the rose, you disrespect him also, naturally. When you disrespect a bunch of rose naturally you disrespect the person who gave you the rose. So when you don’t live with bliss naturally you disrespect the divine.

Life is too valuable to be spent in suffering and misunderstanding. When you don’t hurt yourself and don’t hurt others there is every chance the rope length can be extended from 5 meter to 10 or you can be liberated. The persons who are liberated are only called as Jeevan Muktas. When you actually live in the present moment you can never hurt yourself or you can never hurt others. When you live in the present moment your being feels so much filled with life you will be flowering you will be overflowing so much of energy you can never hurt others, you can never hurt yourself. All disturbances to yourself to others happens only unconscious level. As long as you are unconscious you will hurt others and you will hurt yourself. The moment you become conscious of what is happening inside your being naturally you will stop wrecking yourself and will stop wrecking others. Masochism and sadism is one and the same. If you hurt yourself naturally you will hurt others. If you hurt others naturally you will hurt yourself. Because you only have one mind, you don’t have two mind. You have only one mind. It is like a double edged sword if you kill others naturally you will only commit suicide. If you try to commit suicide naturally you will naturally kill others. It is a double edges sword.

When you come to the present moment when you start living in the present moment you will see a new dimension of your being opens. You experience the new taste, new space of your being. When you experience the new space of your being your past stops binding you, your future starts listening to you. As long as your past binds you, your future will never listen to you.

People come and ask me, “Swamiji, I want to stop smoking please tell me something.” I tell them, “First thing you will do is drop the guilt.” They get surprised, “What is this Swamiji? If I drop my guilt I will start smoking more. What are you talking? You say drop my guilt.” No, only when you drop your guilt only when you are free from your past, guilt is from past, only when you are free from your past you will have enough of energy to change your future. As long as you carry the guilt you will project only your past into future. Understand. When you carry the guilt you already decide you can’t change your future. If you have the confidence that you can change your future you will not carry the guilt. The moment you carry the guilt you decide, you take it for granted I can’t change my future and I am going to go only in this way. That is why you carry the guilt.

There is a beautiful character described in Ramayana _______ The story says anybody who faces the body will lose half of their power and half of the power will go to the body. If you stand in front of him to oppose him all available power will go to ___________. Same way, if you stand in front of your past to fight with him half of your power will go to him. Your ____ will suck half of your energy. Understand all your negativity has got only one power which is supplied by you by having faith on that ____________. That’s all.

All your negativity has got only one power that is supplied by you by having faith on that negativity. When you decide I have to fight to drop my smoking you give power to smoking to fight with you. You give half of your power then you start fighting. It’s almost like you fight with your shadow. You will never win. You will never win. Again and again and again you can see the deeper the guilt you will commit the same mistake again. The more strongly you take the vow I will not become angry next time, more you become mad. The more stronger the vow, more madness. More strongly you decide I will stop smoking, more _____ you will pick up in your hands. Because the thought is there continuously. You will project your past into the future continuously. As long as you try to fight with your past you are in unconsciousness and you will project the same past into the future, be very clear more the guilt, same mistake. You can see by guilt you will never be able to overcome any mistake. Any mistake you can never overcome by guilt. Because when you are having the guilt you are under the clutches of the past so naturally future will not listen to you, future will not listen to you.

Drop from the past. Come to the present moment. Come to the present moment. When you come to the present moment naturally you will see your future is available to you, your future is available to you. As long as you live based on the past naturally you will see the past will automatically penetrate the future, instead of you living the future, past will be the future, past will be living the future.

A small thing if you understand, a very simple thing, it is from this moment next moment takes birth. If you believe in this moment that you can’t drop some habit because it is past naturally you can’t drop it in the future. So coming out of the past, coming to the present moment you will start having a new understanding about the future. You will start having a new realization about the future.

One more thing when you sincerely penetrate the present moment, the eternity, the present moment, the time shaft stops moving, time shaft stops moving. Somebody asked Buddha, “Buddha, what is your age?” He just remained silent. They asked him again, “Buddha, can you tell us your age?” He says, “What can I say? Eternity is the only word I can say.”

In the ninth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, Krshna declares, [Sanskrit]. Krshna says, “Oh Arjuna, the same science is delivered by me to Sun god, ___________, and now to you. Arjuna gets shocked. Arjuna says, “What are you talking? You are just 40 years old, but Sun god and ___________ thousand years old. How can you say you, Krshna, you gave this knowledge to Sun god? Krshna says, “Arjuna, you don’t understand what I say. Time shaft never moves when you penetrate present moment.” When Krshna says I gave same science to Sun god, He’s not telling a lie, please be very clear, He’s telling the truth. When He actually enters the present moment, you just become past, present, and future. You experience a different space.

The problem is we have experienced only the xxxxx lines on the side of the time shaft, past, present, and future. We know only the horizontal line of the time shaft. But, if you come to the present if you just stay in the present moment you will experience a different dimension what we call vertical dimension the vertical dimension. In vertical dimension there is no time there is no past there is no future it is eternity that is what we call enlightenment. That is what we call enlightenment. The man who has experienced the past, present, and future, the vertical, the horizontal shaft and the vertical shaft, is the person who is enlightened. According to me, the xxxxxx itself denotes the horizontal shaft and vertical shaft of time. When you die the horizontal shaft you reset in the vertical shaft. When you die in this horizontal shaft, horizontal space of past, present, and future, when you die in this horizontal line you will experience vertical line which is different space, timeless, spaceless zone. What we call as (46:23) Jeevakasha what we call as jeevakasha in Sanskrit. When you experience that consciousness that is why again and again our masters declared it is eternity, it is eternity, it is eternity.

All our idea of time and shaft the past and the future is just an idea. It is not a reality. When you get even a very small glimpse of present moment you will understand the future and the past. If you can experience the present moment, the experiencing present moment is what I call meditation. You see for meditation you don’t need to do anything differently.

People come and ask me, “Swamiji, is meditation an extraordinary thing?” I tell them, “According to me meditation is the most ordinary thing. Nothing else is necessary.” If you are aware how you are sitting, how your body is, what you are doing, what you are listening, just the present moment, the awareness of the present moment can lead you to the meditation, can put you into the present moment, can give you the glimpse of vertical space of the time shaft. One glimpse can change your whole life. Just one glimpse, but the difficulty is because it is so simple we miss it again and again. If you are asked to do something complicated you will never miss it because anything which is complicated is ego satisfaction. Anything very complicated gives you the ego satisfaction.

I have seen in Bharat people walking from the bottom of the hill to the top of the hill to have the last darshan in 48:34 Tirupati (?). So many hills, people walk up hill, people go around the hills, but they can never sit silently for ten minutes. Ask them to sit silently, no, they can’t sit. You can sit with anybody, you can’t sit with yourself. You can sit with anybody but you can’t sit with yourself. Sitting with yourself what I call meditation. If you can sit with yourself without even having thinking or any words in your mind. You will experience the glimpse of time shaft.

When you experience, naturally the future will be under your control. People come and ask me, “Swamiji, can you predict my future?” I tell them I can change your future why do you bother about predicting the future? Don’t bother about predicting the future. There are thousands of fools sitting and predicting the future continuously. Go to Bharat and under every Banyan tree one guy will be sitting with a parrot. The parrot himself doesn’t know about his future that is why he is under the cage. But you people go and sit there in front of the parrot and ask about your future. Xxxxxxx doesn’t have a house, he’s homeless sitting under Banyan tree he will tell you where to build your house. That is what is the predicting the future. Don’t bother about predicting the future. Future is actually under your control. When I say again your mind plays a game, “Swami speaks nicely but these are all not practical. I’m grahista, these are not for me. He’s an enlightened person, He’s a swami, He can have all these things, not for us.” You will know your mind knows all the cunning methods to escape from the present moment. Understand, just like any being in the planet Earth the mind also has its own instinct to survive. So it gives enough of confusion, enough of misunderstanding, enough of doubts, so that it can keep you under its control. It can keep you under its control. That is the reason again and again and again you are in the clutches of the past or the future. Experience the present you will experience the different dimension of your being.

The first level you get the power to see the future. The next level you get the power to change the future. The third level you understand there is no past and future. In the first, you start seeing the future. In the next… in the intellectual level you start seeing the future, the emotional level you get the power to change the future. That is why I say Shakti can make your dreams into reality. In the third level you get the 51:52 bhoodi the reality itself is a dream. The whole reality is your dream.

There is a beautiful story, a great zen master, an enlightened master gets up from the bed early morning and starts sleeping suddenly, starts weeping. Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx surprised, “What happened? Master what happened to you? You are enlightened person. Enlightened person is not supposed to cry, you cannot cry. What happened to you, why are you weeping?” Master says, “No, I dreamt as if I had become butterfly last night.” The disciples asked, “What is there in that? After all a dream. Forget about it, now you will become alright. You are here, why you are bothered about dream? Forget, drop it. Why are you crying for that?” Master says, “No, I don’t understand whether I am I dreamt I became butterfly or that butterfly is now dreaming that he has become master. Whether I dreamt I became butterfly or that butterfly is dreaming now that he has become master. I do not know. I am not able to understand that is why I’m weeping.”

Understand one thing there is no guarantee that you are sitting and listening my discourse. There is every chance it can be one more dream. There is no scale. People tell me, “Oh no, Swamiji, I can pinch and see.” No, in the dream also you can pinch yourself and say it is not a dream. So there is no guarantee. There is every chance you may be sitting in the dream and listening to my discourses. There is nothing sure that you are in waking state.

When your conscious raises to the third level, to the upper level, you understand whatever is so-called reality is nothing but your dreams. The person who realizes whatever is, whatever you think as reality is nothing but dream is the one we call awakened, the Buddha. Buddha means awakened. There is only two kinds of people in the world one is Buddha another one is 54:31 xxxxxxx that’s all. Either you are Buddha or xxxxx , there is no third level. Either you are awakened or you are dropping the darkness. When you are, when you experience the present moment even one glimpse can give you the taste of different space in your being, a taste of different space in your energy.

Understand, these are the three levels, when you touch the time shaft just for one glimpse you pick up the power to see the future, when you penetrate it little bit you xxxx to change the future. When you penetrate the time shaft totally you realize past, present, future itself is dream. If such a miracle as this should lead you to beyond miracles. You can start searching for miracles. Many people come and ask me, “Swamiji, why don’t you do some miracle?” It’s a usual thing anywhere I go, “Please Swamiji, do some miracle.” How much you tell the people, “No, doing miracle is nothing, that is not the real thing. Just materializing something or teleporting something is not a real miracle. Transforming the human lives is the greatest miracle. Always you tell, but people again want to watch something.
