“See, your body has gotten automatic intelligence.”

See, your body has gotten automatic intelligence. Whenever you feel you are about to fall asleep, just pray to your body. Just make your body sit in your bed, like how you put the deities, and visualize you are in front of your body. The intelligence - see your body is an expression of Mother Earth - the Bhudevi, Mother Earth. The physical thing only, Mother Earth. And just pray : “ Please heal yourself, see that I able to do whatever I want to do through you”

You see, the mind is societal, body is natural. So, your mind only is the culprit, the cunning fellow. Your body is natural. So just pray to the body, like 5 min in the morning you pray to God.

Pray to body: “ Please heal yourself, please see that I am able to do whatever I want to do through you, and you are accommodating me, just see that you are able to accommodate me “ Just 5min.You will see miracles are happening. Just miracles will happen. Your body is so capable or ready to listen to you, it will just do miracles.

Whenever you feel like having a headache or some, any disturbance, small small disturbances, any day to day disturbance, just pray to your body 5 min and you will completely become all right. And it will immediately sweat and clean itself. It will just sit and clean itself.

So, now let’s enter into the Mahabharata.

See yesterday I was talking about this Vishma - parental conditioning. If you look little deep how Vishma was conquered. Shikhandi, Gay (2:11) cxxxxx was put in front and conquered. Who is gay? Gay is a person who said “No” to the basic parental conditioning you are male or female. He rebelled.

So, the anti social attitude, or the hippie attitude is good to conquer Vishma, but not anything further. Sometimes, becoming a little crazy, being a little crazy like me is good. No, really, a little crazy is good. it helps you to conquer your Vishma. It helps you to conquer your Vishma. I was wondering, when you are taking Sanyas, the path of enlightenment, you are asked to, completely you are asked to say “no” to society.

So, I was thinking that hippies also say “No” to society, then why are they not become enlightened? Shikhandi is useful to conquer Vishma, but not after that. So, attitude of saying “No” to society, hippie attitude, is good as long as you conquer the parental conditioning, Vishma. Then you have to drop Shikhandi also.

You cannot use Shikhandi for Drona. For Drona you need a different guide, different tactics, different techniques. Drona is who? The intellectual knowledge which has not become enlightened in you. That is Drona. Your acharia, who inspired you, but who has not given you enlightenment. He himself is not enlightened.

The librarians, who keep this knowledge and who give you, but does not lead you to enlightenment. So, having the attitude of Shikandi is the best way to put the Vishma down. See in front of Shikandi, Vishma cannot be active. Nobody else can conquer Vishma. Your straight, complete “No” to social conditioning, society’s attitude. That is the only way to conquer Vishma.

So Arjuna put that in front. That is why in Bharat, anybody who wants to become enlightened, it becomes a basic condition of leaving the home and starting the travel. I was thinking “ is it really a basic condition ?” In the initial level, it is necessary, breaking from the social conditioning. Unless, you go through a thorough change - break.

Because enlightenment is not a development of your personality. It is breaking free from your personality. Enlightenment is not a personality development program. What is the meaning of the enlightenment development program?

“ B U L L” Your personality is not worthy of developing, understand that, it’s worthy of dropping, not developing. Anybody who tries to do personality development, will end up in worse depression. Let me tell you, give you some ideas about this personality development. What do we mean by the word personality development?

Now, there are so many movies becoming popular - What exactly happens in these guys you know, it will give you some thought which clicks in you, and is an inspiration for you. For a few days it will work on your mind, whenever you will bring the thought to your mind, your problems will disappear.

It’s called initiation. But an important secret is missing in this. Those thoughts will be powerful allies only for a few days in your head. Suddenly after a few days, you see the very idea of remembering, visualising does not hold anymore power over you. You just don’t feel like doing it, you just don’t feel like connecting to that idea. It has lost power over you.

These clicks, these initiations can cause personality development, but cannot lead to enlightenment. Enlightenment can happen only by a master who gives you constantly these clicks and can take care of you even when the click is not working on you. Click means initiation. For example, I give you the idea: “ Ehh, everything is Maya, everything is illusion”

When I explain the concepts, suddenly it clicks on you. You realize, for ten days whenever you see any problems rise in your inner space you will remember: “everything is Maya, Swamiji told me.” Immediately the problem disappears.

But after two weeks, what will happen? ” Even if you remember, “ Ahh forget about it, no no, no, no, it’s reality” You initiation will not work. A person who can hold you even when your initiation is not working, only he can liberate you. Initiation itself do not have capacity to liberate you. These books, these movies, can give you initiation - click !

That is why the bestseller books - bestseller are any book which has got a click, it will become a bestseller. Actually I can give you ten lessons on how to make bestsellers.

First thing is you need to be an idiot. No, You should not have intelligence. If you have intelligence you will feel compassion towards people. Guys who are giving like these clicks to people and are giving them the assurance that they will be liberated are spreading cancers - psychological cancers.

Understand, without enlightenment, giving like this one or two clicks and giving them weak promises. You see now, people - ten day the click works, what will they do? eleven days even if it doesn’t work, they will only suspect them, they will not suspect the initiation. So, the struggle starts between them. Inside them the struggle starts, right? “ Ten days before it was working on me, why is it not working now? Then something is wrong with me”

The struggle between you and you, over a concept which was working on you and now it’s not working, it’s called “sadhana’ . Understand, it was working, now it’s not working, but you are trying to make it work, that struggle is what you think as “sadhana”

Sadhana is not a struggle. if it’s a struggle the person who initiated you is not enlightened. Person who can hold you even when the initiation is not working on you, is enlightened. Understand, now you can understand, the personality development vs. personality dropping.

Guys who are helping people to do personality development, are creating so much a conflict in the inner spaces of the human beings - they are spreading psychological cancers. I know people who suffer because of these concepts, like creating visualization. For first few days it will work, because the initiation will click. After a few days it will not have any more power over you.

If you read enough of this kind of nonsensical literature and practice and try it in your inner space, you can understand what I am talking. You can understand what I am talking.

First ten days it will work on you. After two weeks when they don’t work on you, what will you do? You won’t suspect the other, will you? What will you do? You will suspect you. And then the struggle between you and you starts. The conflict. The internal conflict, disrespect, losing confidence over you.

That is why I always warn people: “Do not read, do not eat, the books written by enlightened beings “

Do not swallow like a donkey - how donkeys eat papers, do now swallow anything and everything which is written by unenlightened beings, because that will give you the click for 15 days. That is the worst danger. The initiation will happen. After 15 days the initiation loses its power over you. What can you do? You are in danger.

Enlightenment is not personality development, it is personality dropping. So, saying complete “No” to society - you being set that you are male and female, it’s the first conditioning happening to you. Saying “ No” to that it’s a gay. Putting complete “No” to the society in front of Vishma, parental conditioning. The parental conditioning is dead. That is what is the meaning of Shikhandi being put in the front and Vishma being killed.

Then comes Drona - how Drona was killed? it’s a very big drama. Understand, Drona’s killing, if you see, it’s a big drama. In the Drona’s killing, four people need to be involved:

Individual consciousness - Arjuna

Enlightened Master - Krishna

And Dharma, (12:50) xxx - Morality

And Acharya - the Drona

You see, you have in front of you:

- The knowledge, which was inspiration towards the enlightenment, but it is not giving you enlightenment - the person who inspired you towards enlightenment, but he himself is not the person who can give you enlightenment. He is the acharya - Drona. - And Dharma, morality: “How can I drop him? How can I drop him? “ but Dharma has to decide: “now this fellow has to die !” That courage has to happen.

So many people I know who are caught in that attitude “ No, no, no it is Guru droha” Understand, it is Guru droha. But, the problem is that your dharma will never accept to do the droha. Now an enlightened master comes to play: Krishna. He comes up with these tactics: “see, you don’t have to compromise from your dharma, just just do what I say, so this knowledge dies, and you take the jump”.

Understand, now the four guys have to play this role, because this is such a sensitive thing. And if any of you already had exposure to some spiritual literature or a guru, and had connection, you would have faced the same struggle. You would have faced the same struggle. You would have had the same problem. If you had the same problem, now you can understand what I am saying. Now you can understand what I am saying.

The dharma part, morality part of you will justify continuously: “ No, no! I cannot drop ( 14:37) helped me, he lifted me, he xxxx me. How can drop Drona?”

But unless Drona falls, you cannot have enlightenment. Now the living Master comes to play. He inspires Dharma. He inspires Dharma: “Hey you don’t have to tell a lie, but say something which is almost true for Arjuna, your individual consciousness, but a lie for Drona”.

So, that technique, that tactic, for that Krishna needs to trust Dharma. Understand, for me to tell you to drop from your old ideology, or the personality or the Master, and move to me, I need to trust your individual consciousness and your Dharma, so that you will not play the same thing on me.

Understand? So, Krishna has to come up with a proper technique. Because it's a very subtle drama. It’s a very subtle drama, Here, you will need to play a very proper drama, a very proper step has to be taken. The person drops the old knowledge which has not led him to enlightenment, but able to catch the living Master who can lead to enlightenment directly.

It's a very subtle game. It needs to be done not verbally. You can’t do it. You can’t do it. So, now the Krishna has to come up with the tactics. He comes up with the idea - he calls Vishma and tells him to kill the elephant which is called Ashwatthama. See, the Ashwathama elephant is killed.

Now he calls Dharma: “ Hey, you go and tell, in front of Drona - the elephant called Ashwatthama has died.”

And when Dharma is telling “ the elephant called Ashwatthama died”, during the word “the elephant called”, Krishna blows his conch. So, Drona only heard “ Ashwatthama (17:09 ) xxxxx”. Ashwatthama died. And Drona dropped.

So now, Master needs to play a big role of moving you from that plane to the next plane. See, nothing is wrong with the knowledge which you acquired or the Master who helped me, nothing is wrong. But, you can receive only that much from him.

Many times, the Drona himself can be enlightened. It means the person who inspired you, helped you, would have become enlightened. Maybe it would have been enlightened. But, you can receive or suck only that much from him, that much juice only you can suck.. So your attitude is only that much.

After that, there may be so many reasons: not availability , not able to connect, not able to relate, you are not able to develop yourself more than that. So many reasons maybe. That is the reason, now you have to go beyond Drona.

Now, Krishna comes to play and he comes up with the tactics. One more thing, your morality has to agree that Drona has to fall. Your Dharma has to agree Drona has to fall. You have to go beyond Drona. Only then Krishna can come up with a plan and say “Chalo, start ! Chalo, start! ”.

One more thing, here first time you cross even your morality for the sake of Master. Understand, even your morality is no more victim, even Dharma is no more victim. You go towards the Master. Then, Drona falls - you take the next step. The next step to who? “ Karana !”

That is the most difficult part. Karana is your (19:13)satwa - your attitude of charity, your attitude of compassion. see, even compassion is dangerous because it tells you the person outside is real -person outside is real. That is what is the basis of compassion, no? He is real and you are showing compassion. No, it is not the truth. It is not the real.

Now, to bring the compassion down, different tactics has to be done. It’s another one big tactic. When compassion has gotten all the weapons in his hands, you cannot kill him. You cannot kill him. Because his weapons are very powerful than individual consciousness weapons.

It will look almost like individual consciousness is an egoistic self centered person, if he is using some thoughts against compassion. Many times you can see : NO, NO, NO ! People come up with very logical questions: “Is it really needed for me to get enlightened instead of serving these so many poor people in front of me? Is it not? So many people are dying, millions are dying, should I serve them or I should get enlightened? It is too selfish for me to get enlightened” .

If you are stuck here, you are stuck with the 14th day of Mahabharata. Mahabharata (20:49) xxx in the 14th day. Still there (20:53)xxxx You will not become enlightened, but, you will have the protection of Dharma-deveta. No arrow will come and hit you. All arrows sent towards Karana will become a flower garland and fell on you. Do you know that is what the story says ?

So, you will also have no suffering from the world, at this point, but you are not enlightened. This is what I call the space of Heaven. You are in Heaven by the 14th day. If you crossed Vishma, if you crossed Drona, you are in Heaven already, but you are not enlightened. You are caught in a very wrong logic.

Now Krishna needs to come into play. Next drama he has to do, he has to make that your (21:52) xxxx is harmless. He has to make your (21:55) xxxx harmless. Sanjaya means spontaneity. Understand, Sanjaya means spontaneous conquer. Sanjaya is the driver of compassion.

Compassion has to lose it’s spontaneity. Sanjaya has to run away, in between. Now create trouble between Sanjaya and compassion - spontaneity and compassion. Your spontaneous instinct says something, but your compassion says something else.

This is the (22:33)xxxxx

When your spontaneity - sponteneity means the energy which drives you to do things, it’s Sanjaya. Sanjaya was the driver. Sanjaya was the driver for Karana. So now this guy, the spontaneity, if it leaves you, then compassion is harmless. It has no weapons. It has completely lost its energies, now “attack it !”

Now Krishna says: “Attack it ! “

You need to go beyond even this logic “ Why is this really necessary for me to get enlightened? Is it not too greedy instead of serving so many people, helping so many people? Why should I get enlightened?”

Unless you are having that bliss or joy, how do you think you will be able to give it to others? There is a beautiful Zen saying: “ an enlightened being even if he kills others, it is good for them. An unenlightened being, even if he does service at big big hospitals, it will only be disturbing them. It will only end up in a mess.”

So, a person who is ready to go beyond this (23:54) xxxx , who is ready to jump beyond this compassion also, is listening to the Master. Now Krisha says “ Hey Arjuna, Chalo, finish him off !”

Arjuna says: “ No, no ! He is the embodiment of compassion”

One more thing, (24:13 ) xxxx is also the brother of the nature, but playing the other side. Karana is also the brother of Arjuna, but playing the other side. Compassion is your brother. The set individual consciousness’ brother is compassion, but unfortunately playing the opposite side. That is Karana.

Now the Master says: “ No, forget about compassion, finish! You can’t be stuck even with him”. Then, can you take the courageous step and start, even one more thing. Understand, Gita was only the initiation. Every day, Arjuna obeyed Krishan’s words. It means every step, he took the courageous bold steps.

That is why I tell people:

“ Gita is like doing NSP or Atma Spurana. After that, coming up to Vishma, maybe I can say ashramite initiation, becoming ashramite. And then getting to the Drona, I can say becoming (25;31) xxx or Sanyasa. And coming up to the Karana, now Living Enlightenment. You start Living Enlightenment.”

You need to progress continually. You cannot sit just because you become ashramite. No ! Then (25:46) xxxx the tenth day. You cannot sit just because you became (25:54) xxxx then xoxxo the 12th day, with Drona. Now, even going beyond your own, what you call as compassion, or (26:06) xxxx, your own, what was your own byproduct, your brother - even your elder brother. Individual consciousness’ elder brother is compassion. But, ready to go, even throw you and the compassion out for the sake of the Master’s word.

Because every step Krisha is inspiring and guiding. Arjuna could have said “ No! “ to Krishna at any point, but he did not say. Fortunately, he moved every step. When he says “No” even to compassion and finishes him off, he could have said “No, No, No, he is not having any weapons, and he is an embodiment of compassion, Dharma” he could have said \`\`No'', but straight away went and finished. Here ends the Karana’s disappearance.

Then comes the final, ultimate, final and ultimate: your ego. You will face your ego without any paraphernalia. Understand, by now your ego directly comes up without any judgement. That is what is depression. Causeless ego is depression. You don’t know the reason, but you just don’t want to be around Master.

“No, no, no, I am feeling disconnected”. This is the word. You don’t know the reason, but you say “ I am feeling disconnected”. You are now facing the (27: 44)xxxx. You are now facing xxxxx. You are now facing the xxxx Understand, the big problem with xxxx, you cannot kill through any weapon, because his whole body is weapon proof. You cannot break him. No part of his body can be penetrated through any weapon. He has taken the vow. He has taken the boon.

You cannot do anything with ego. Even individual consciousness cannot do anything with ego. Because what happens? Your ego is much more powerful than your own individual consciousness. How will you fight with you?

Now, you need the complete protection and support, and every inch direction of the Master, every inch direction of Master. That is why the story says, Krishna just presses his thigh, taps on his thigh, and says “ Vishma, finish him, (28:53) xxxxxx there.”

Same way, when the last fight goes on, with you and your depression - see, the problem is now even Master cannot directly guide you, because you say you are disconnected. You are feeling disconnected, what to do? You are saying you are feeling disconnected. So, he has to play the game til the (29:14) xxxx gets tired. Only when the ( 29:17)xxx gets tired, he knows the right spot where the blow has to happen - where the blow has to happen. He will tired him.

Whenever people come and tell me that they feel disconnected, I’ll sit and talk and talk and talk and talk and exhaust their logic. I exhaust their logic. Three or four sittings I’ll do. First sitting I’ll tell them “ all right, see you later on, now class is there”, second sitting, third sitting, I exhaust their logic.

Then I know where there is a tight point, where there is a tight point and the individual consciousness will receive instructions, blast there ! - and blast there! and suddenly you see the (30:09 ) xxxx falls and enlightenment happens.

That is where the eighteen day drama ends - the eighteen day drama ends. The blood of (30:25 ) xxx , after he falls, becomes amrita. That is what is used to grow your very intelligence. That is why Draupadi applies the very blood and ties her hair. It is not vengeance.

When the ego falls, after the ego falls, the very ego which was an enemy to you, can now become an instrument for teaching and preaching. The very logic can become now an instrument for your teaching and preaching. It can become amrita so your hair can grow so you can travel around the world, and taking classes. This is the whole drama.

Now, the parental conditioning will be lying down there in one corner without its negativity. Without any of his negativity. Because it has lost all of its negativity. It’s lying there as a Vishma, just like Vishma lying, it’s lying there.

Then, you can go and take even blessings from the parental conditioning. You can have even your own mother in your own ashram, nothing wrong. And it will not cause any problems, because the parental conditioning has lost all his negativity. The Vishma has lost all his negative things and all the thoughts have disappeared.

Then you can take even blessings from the Vishma. Then Vishma can teach you how to run the kingdom, how to live the enlightenment, how to spread more. It is possible, that even Vishma can give you tips. Then, when Vishma gives the tips, you sit in the throne and coronation happens.
