“you see, anything, if it has to be carved.”

you see, anything, if it has to be carved. It should use a hammer, so these difficulties these austerities are hammer, to engram, to engrave all these beautiful experiences inside your mind. All these beautiful moments, you will engrave, you will carve inside your mind, deeply with this, uh, the moments of uncomfort and austerity. A little bit of austerity is nice, wonderful.

And one more thing. Giving too much of comfort and sophistication to the body, this creating a permanent residence for all the possible diseases. When you create enough of comfort and only sophistication for your body, you create a system, which continuously creates disease. Now once in a while like this going and breaking all those things is good. Hmm. You will also be a, you’ll you you can also understand that you can be, you can survive, with a little bit of difficulties, you can take little risk. Now you’re having confidence, did you think that, that type of, things you will be able to travel? Especially when going I saw, some more got into the pony now if they come back they will really disturb them [00:07:01] and then all will make fun of them, so that is the reason people are going I saw all their faces, everyone. This Nithyananda swami did not even tell us. He just brought, and if we go back now people will laugh at us, and we’ll have to show that we are very courageous.

All the husbands are, husbands wants to prove to wives, and the wives wants to just prove that they are courageous people. And then come back no other way we have to come back. Somebody was asking on the way, “Swamiji forget there’s no helicopter service. I said, “Even if it is there it will not be allowed.”

Is Hanuman Chitti [00:07:52] where you where we went and got the jeep that is the place from where Hanuman lifted Sanjeevi hills and took away to, uh, Sri Lanka. You will see one flat square, as if something is removed. All the area will be hill just one flat you will see. So he removed the Sanjevi and took away to treat the Lakshmana ,in Sri Lanka. That Lanka water.That is why it is called Hanuman Chetti. Chetti means, flat, or that shaved head. Shaved head is called Chetti. Flat is called Chetti. He just took that whole hill and took it away, that is why.

Maybe, uh, they just named the name of Sita [00:08:45], Sita. XX Chetti [00:08:51]. From there only Hanuman took, lifted it.

Oh he didn’t bring it back. he didn’t bring it back. He just put it there, that is what is Trikunamalai? [00:09:10], that hills is only Trikunamalai, in Sri Lanka, and uh, Shiva temple is there. What English they say? Trikunamalai, Trikunamali [00:09:21]. That hills only. And if you go and see the Trikonamalai? [00:09:34] you will see as if the hill is just put attached. You will see a complete one ring below in the foothills. One ring, complete ring, as if he is just placed. It will not be attached with the planet. It will not be attached to the ground. There will be one ring. Somebody make some story and attach it, I don’t know.

But the beauty is in, in this country, everything will be related to spirituality. The same hills are there in some other country means they would have made it as some tourism spot. There would have been some resort. I have seen in a skiing spot, in so many other, in our camp/America?[00:10:18], so many other countries I have seen, would have become skiing spot. Here you see every stone has become a worship, worship every stone has become God. They start worshipping. The whole thing is centred on spirituality. That’s what using every opportunity to grow spiritually in the life. This country has done a big job.

[00:Participate]: So how come Bharat is so based on spirituality? Because the Rishi’s culture started here only. This guys the rishis are responsible. Big group of people, who are very intelligent. See first thing, they don’t have to work for food, because so much of abundant, food is available because of these rivers. Everything is available. Then what to do? They started meditating. They started contemplating going in to find out the secrets of the inner world. Then they brought the high rich culture. We are all indebted to those guys.

That’s why Himalayas is such a wonderful place. Just can’t imagine that we are here, again once more. All of them, they’re born here only]. A few went from here all over the world and created life in everywhere. According to my understanding and experience surely, human beings are happening on planet earth in Himalayas only. This say only they happened and from here only the whole culture developed. I don’t know about other historians what they say. I saw today. Different different faces, different different scenes and on the pony below the pony and on the dolly and on the ground walking. No other experience to be shared?

[00:Participant]: Swamiji I usually suffer with a sinus problem, but today I’m not having any difficulties at all! Tamil [00:12:54] She says that she has a sinus problem she can’t enjoy, but today she didn’t have any problem. That’s wonderful. There is a lot of herbals there. That air itself is so nice, and so good for health.

And one more thing, the very deep fear of survival that, that solves everything. You have to be there alert, alive, otherwise nothing can be done. Actually, all of you guys have practically successfully completed the one thing. Because now once you know, your body knows the knack, your mind knows the knack, next not no problem at all. The first thing only is little difficult, now you know the whole thing. Next, there is no problem or. Why they are laughing, huh? Now you know the whole knack na, so no problem at all. Otherwise results?? [00:13:56]. But they are worth having. The experience is worth having. Such wonderful experience. And if you come alone you can’t have such wonderful experience and you can’t be courageous. Somewhere you will say, “no no no I will not go, enough.” All those things. Now the group energy, and the master’s inspiration, that just takes the whole thing and moves it.

That came from Shankara. Actually Shankara went to all these 4 places in all these 4 places for the sake of Shankara he came for cooking. We used to put the rice in the cloth, and shake in the water. It will become rice. It will be cooked rice. And put little salt and that’s all. No no no, already frozen did you not you didn’t see the complete and frozen thing, people are walking on the glacier under the water is coming. On that side hot water. In Badri[00:15:11?] also you’ll see the same, in all the Chadamusi [00:15:14] ? In Timbagu [00:15:16] you’ll also see the same.

It is a sulphur water ma. Chemically actually, geographically I don’t know any explanation [00:15:27], I don’t think there is any explanation [00:15:29] geographically, but only one thing they say that there is the sulphur, so from that water comes. Sulphur water.

So much of fear, alright, even if you don’t do Svadhisthana meditation here will come up and get it cleansed.

[00:Participate]: What are we doing tomorrow? Tomorrow we are doing to Tagasi [00:16:06]? But tomorrow there is no other, uh, like this climbing, just utagasi and going going outing [00:16:12]. Utagasi is the place where, uhm, uh, there is a big Shiva temple. I will explain tomorrow there.

Ah yes yes. Now there are 2 places she does. In that Varanasi and here. Both the places she does u-turn. Usually the Ganga will be flowing like this. In Utagasi [00:16:38] she will take her turn and suddenly like that towards uphill and then take a turn. That’s why it’s called Utagasi [00:16:46].

Today we had a nice, nice experience. Since you fell, from the pony, some of you came back. No problem. Suddenly saw one sticker of mind in the back, I don’t know where the sticker came. Today I heard that a lot of crowd, that side. I don’t know sudden, suddenly some time some days the pilgrims weekends[00:17:17], pilgrims start.

Swamiji, why didn’t you come by pony? Me? I couldn’t come by pony, but I come back and I won’t be able to sit, I will be sitting like this and giving discourse. I have to sit little decently and give discourse ma. That is why. And I will be walking like that and coming “Hey, put that seat.”’ And I have to take care of my health for next few days. May not be for myself for all your sake.
