“topic is emotional intelligence.”

topic is emotional intelligence. It is the continuity of Patanjali Yoga Sutra series. The eight parts of patanjali yoga - Ashtanga. Usually people always say it is a… they translate the Ashtanga as eight steps. It is a big mistake. It is not eight steps, eight parts. Eight steps means, usually, understand... one after the other, one after the other, one after the other, but it is not eight steps. It is eight parts. All the eight is, supposed to be practicing at the same time.

Ashtanga yoga - sanskrit word Anga means part. It is not, step. Today you are going to see the 8th step. Important step, eight part, important parth - Samadhi. Yama, Niyama, Asana, Pranayama, Pratyahara, Tharana, Yaan, Samadhi. These are the eight parts of yoga. According to the founder of Yoga philosophy - Patanjali.

The 8th part is Samadhi. Let me translate that word Samadhi, then we enter into the discourse. Samadhi means Sama \+ Adi. Being one with reality. Being one with existence. Being one which was there from the beginning. Which was there from the origin... it is a wonderful word. This one word if we can understand and practice, it will straight away lead us to Samadhi. The very experience is explained, expressed in this word. Sama Adi - the experience, path, both are expressed in this one word. Sama Adhi is a word, experience and path. You can just practice the Samadhi. After achieving the experience, what you experience is also called by the same word Samadhi. The path is also Samadhi. Path and the goal both are Samadhi. How to practice this Samadhi and what we achieve by achieving Samadhi is what we will see now.

Usually, always people are either intellectual or emotional. They don’t have the Sama- balance in their being. People who are too much intellectual they create trouble to themself and to others. Logic always disceptes. Too much of intellect creates too much of problem.

Mahabharata beautifully says: There are three kinds of Bala, strength. One is Bahu-bala means...physical strength, another one is Buddhi-bala, intellectual strength, third only Atma-bala. Strength of your being. Compassion, love and all these things.

A man who has got only physical strength, without spiritual strength, he will become a rowdy, criminal. A man only got physical strength without spiritual strength he will become a rowdy...Gunda, criminal. His philosophy will be, might is right. If somebody has got only intellectual strength without spiritual strength he will become a politician. Only intellectual strength, no spiritual strength means he’ll become a politician.

Of course. There are a few exemptions, good politicians also. He will control them by making them feel that they are below him. One important thing when I said the word politician, it doesn't mean only people who are sitting in chairs and ruling. People who are in the party, people who are in the administration, people who are in the religious field also can become politicians. The so called priests who create guilt in people and rule them, even they are politicians.

People who have got just intellectual strength, without spiritual strength they start ruling the others. Either by creating fear or guilt. Politicians rule by creating the fear, priests rule by creating guilt. They create guilt. Again and again you are taught, you are a sinner. This is sin, that is sin. One thing, if you look little deeply, whatever you enjoy, suddenly you will feel you are doing something wrong.

See your life, if you are enjoying something, suddenly you will feel that you are doing something wrong, as if something is wrong. From the beginning you are taught, all your joy is corrupted with guilt. From the beginning the guilt is implanted in your being. From the beginning you are taught anything joy, blissful means you are doing something wrong.

Sad, morous face okay. Just be sad, depressed nobody will bother you. If you simply start laughing everybody will go... what happened? What happened to you? Why, why are you laughing? What is that laugh? Usually people inquire if you are laughing and jumping and dancing. But if you are morous, sad, that is considered as a natural state. You are sad, depressed it is considered as a natural state. If you are ekstatic, joyfull, laughing naturally people will ask you. What happened to you?

[00:08:38}

Why are you laughing? What is wrong with you? We don’t understand. Life is ecstasy, of course if you are allowed to believe life is ecstasy you can't be, slave. You can't be exploited. People who got only intellectual strength, who don't have spiritual strength; they rule you by creating guilt in you.

One more thing, even though people who sell cosmetic products they create a guilt in you that you are not beautiful. No, it is true. Unless they create guilt in you that you are not beautiful. How can they sell their products. They can create... market only by creating guilt in you that you are not beautiful.

See , they are the…. that is why they, again and again do these shows, fashions shows, fashion shows and Miss Universe all these programs. What did you think they...do. Unless you have a deep guilt that you are not beautiful you will not go for all these products.

Again and again yoga declares, the commentators of yoga philosophy, they say beautifully: you are beautiful to yourself. There is no scale. How can you have scale? Where is the scale? No scale. God is not... engineer. If he is an engineer, he would have produced two more...two molds, Mr. Universe and Mrs. Universe. Then you will have order, make this mold, same mold 10Million people, over. But he is not a sci...he is not a... engineer. He is a painter, he's an artist. He paints everyone of us. He carves every one of us. That is why every one of us are so unique. There is no comparison.

There is no need to feel that somebody is beautiful. Somebody is ugly. You are enough unto yourself. I tell you one important thing, I read a beautiful book on his healing, on Dr. Luis Hay. She has done a lot of research and she has written a beautiful book and I feel she must have...had some spiritual experience, otherwise she can’t come up with such a wonderful ideas. I think she has done a big service to... west by writing that book.

In that she describes so many mental setups which creates disease in our beings. Samskaras which creates disease in our beings. Let me tell you something from my own experience. When you create an idea that somebody is beautiful and you are not you should become like that person. See male attracted to female and female attracted to male is perfectly alright.

That is usual, natural. That is okay, but some male puts a photograph of some male models and tries to become like him every day. Doing some exercise, doing some gym. Everyday he tries to think I should become like him, I should become like him. Or a female puts some female models' photos and tries to paint herself continuously to look like her.

It creates a deep guilt in you and... gap... is... created you and between you and you. A deep gap is created between your body and your being. It is almost like a wedge inserted in to your being. You become uneasy with your being, with your body. When you start feeling guilty, you are not beautiful, you should become like somebody, you should look like somebody. You created deep guilt in yourself.

Unconsciously, you start hating your body. You don’t live with your body completely. You don’t live with your body comfortably. You just feel, start feeling uneasiness with your body. When you start feeling uneasy, uncomfortable with your body, the uneasiness becomes disease. The uneasiness, diseasiness with your body becomes disease.

According to my experience. I worked with millions of people in...last few years. I am working with Lakes of people in the... healing, in the... meditation. From my experiences I tell you, the idea which is created in you that you are not beautiful enough unto yourself. That you are not beautiful is the main cause for the cancer. When you start feeling that you are not enough, you should look like somebody else, you start creating... gap between you and your body.

That gap, that uneasiness, that uncomfortable feeling with your body is the root, main cause for the cancer. One important thing you should understand, that body may look really beautiful but it can’t enjoy even a cup of coffee through that body. Even if you have to enjoy a cup of coffee you have to enjoy through this body.

You have to enjoy...through your body. Can you enjoy... cup of coffee through somebody's body? Just because it is beautiful. No, just because it is beautiful or handsome, you can’t enjoy even a cup of coffee through that body.

Be very clear nobody is beautiful, nobody is beautiful. Everybody is enough unto themself. Everybody is enough unto themself. You are okay for yourself. You don’t have to compare, you don’t have to think somebody else is beautiful, you don't have to feel that you are not enough. Be very clear if God is an engineer, he would have created every one of us in the same mold, he is not...engineer. He is an artist.

So every one of you are unique. When the guilt is created in you, you are not beautiful. Only then you will start getting all the cosmetics, all the beauty products. To promote those products that ideas have to be created in you. All these people indirectly rule you. Indirectly all of them rule you. The intellectual strength without having spiritual strength is a dangerous thing.

Actually I don't speak from memory. I speak spontaneity. Somebody is speaking with... mind, they’ll prepare their lectures, come and vomit. I speak from spontaneity. That is why every day, hours together, somewhere or other I am speaking. But so many new things are coming out and I never feel tired.

People ask me, one professor asked me, university professor, American university professor? Swamiji, we speak ... if I have to give a one hour lecture, at least three hours I have to prepare, but I don’t see you... prepare. You just come and speak hours together. Whether workshops, meditation, workshops. I will be speaking maybe around thirty hours in two days. How was truly expressed, how can you do without preparation?

See, somebody asked your name, you don't need to prepare to replay. It becomes your being, anything which is...become your experience, you don’t need to prepare to express that.

So now whatever I am experiencing, I am expressing, it has become my experience so I'm expressing. I am speaking from spontaneity. I am not speaking from the mind. When you go around, when you disturb, naturally you disturb others' attention. When you disturb other attention Naturally, have... to stop speaking. I have to bring you back to the subject, It's like a hump on the highway. It is like a hump on the highway.
