Today is July 4th American Independence day. My blessings to America! God bless America! And I tell you from my heart, America is a unique country, unique constitution, ready for the great conscious transformation. American constitution is created for breakthrough in human consciousness. Maybe it has taken little time for the western materialistic European mental setup to change. But now I am seeing very clearly America is ready for the conscious explosion. And America is ready for conscious raise. There will be huge breakthrough in consciousness. There will be huge evolution in consciousness in America. America is ready for enlightenment. I wish America and all our devotees, citizens or permanent residents anyway connected to America; I wish you all happy Independence Day. Blessings! God bless America!

Today is Swami Vivekananda’s Maha Samadhi day and a great Master who initiated the conscious raise in America. Today is a unique day; America’s independence and the Master who initiated conscious evolution in America - Swami Vivekananda - his maha samadhi day. Let us all remember the great spiritual wave, spiritual expression, one of the most powerful incarnation happened in the modern era who set a trend and brought tremendous respect to the Vedic tradition all over the world. Swami Vivekananda. We remember and pay our respects, tributes to him. Let him continue his spiritual guidance to this universe.

Let’s enter into today’s subject. Today onwards I am starting a new series ‘Mind - Mind your Mind’. Today’s subject ‘Does the world exist beyond the mind?’; In Patanjali’s yoga sutra 4th chapter 16th verse 178th sutra. Na caika citta tantam vastu tad apramanakam tada kim syaat. This is like our brahmacharis – once it starts it will go in its own way. Let me read the sutra word by word Na cha eka citta tantram vastu tad apramanakam tada kim syat

06:38

Swami Prabhavananda translates this sutra as the object cannot be said to be dependent on the perception of a single mind, for if this were the case, the object could be said to be nonexistent when that single mind was not perceiving it.

And I wanted to tell you another one important thing. I don’t know how you call it as a coincidence or what you will call. Today is Swami Vivekananda’s Maha Samadhi day. This is the sutra he did not even translate and left the body. Till the last sutra only he translated; that’s all. So today’s sutra Vivekananda has no translation. I don’t know. Till the last sutra he translated and today’s sutra he left the body. It means almost we were repeating exactly the same way he translated and from today this remaining sutras don’t have Vivekananda’s translation. He left the body; strange coincidences.

08:04

Swami Sachidnanda translates this sutra as nor does an objects existence depend upon a single mind for if we take what would become of that object when that mind did not perceive it.

Bhagwan Osho translates this sutra as: the same object is seen in different ways by different minds. An object is not dependent on one mind.

08:41

Let us understand the deeper sacred secrets revealed in this sutra. So the question is does the world exist beyond the mind? Does the world exist beyond the mind? If you want the straight answer I can say yes and no and more. There are some questions where the straight answer is more complicated, powerful, need to have lot of explanation. This is such subject you need to have deep understanding.

10:08

One; please catch this step by step. Don’t miss it. Then you can really experience many extraordinary things in the life. First; does the mind cover the whole world? I will put it in this way. Does the world exist outside the mind? I am telling yes. Because the world the objects are seen in a different way by different minds. It exists outside the mind.

11:41

The next statement I am making ‘Objects do not exist outside the mind’. If you ask does objects exist outside the mind, I say no. How? Because, the collective minds, all minds them self are in delusion. Because the collective minds are in delusion they see the different objects as different way. Please understand if you see from individual mind the world exists beyond mind. If you see from collective mind world does not exist beyond mind.
