Bhajan evening in Strilky Ashram
21:50 - 22:54|Recorded on 24 Jun 2024
Without a true mind, nothing is purified. The mind cannot be purified without being true. Whether one performs austerities or pilgrimages, or practices yoga and samadhi, all is in vain without the true mind. The grace of the Satguru is essential. Upon seeing the Guru's form, the mind can attain supreme ecstasy. All spiritual practices depend on the Guru's word and grace. The true mind and the Guru's grace are the sole means to the divine.
"Mana saccā binā nahīṁ sudhare."
"Sat guru nama chaha, chahe panama chaha visa vi desha."

Attain true knowledge and unity through devotion and righteous conduct. Pursue real knowledge by following spiritual association and duty, abandoning aimless wandering. Purify the heart by contemplating sacred texts and cultivating love for the humble. Cease all internal quarreling. Emulate the great saints who endured severe trials. Through meditation on the divine, achieve self-independence. This attainment brings both spiritual and worldly prosperity. Meeting the formless, unsupported Guru brings unity through divine sight and song.
"Remove all impurities and reflect upon the Vedas and Purāṇas. Have love in your heart for the meek."
"Meditate on Śiva Śaṅkara and attain svarāja, self-independence. Then you will gain great wealth, both spiritual and worldly."

The Path of Grace and Guidance
0:10 - 1:10

From: 12 Apr 2025
The main topic is the path of the guru, encompassing wisdom, practice, and liberation.
First, pray to Gaṇeśa for protection and wisdom. The guru is this form of Gaṇeśa. The master gives information about the universe and the aim to become one with the Self. Practice systematically and slowly to cross all obstacles, purifying the nervous system, thoughts, and feelings. The outer world tempts with sensory satisfaction, which can pull one down. To reach the highest aim, one needs a master who knows the safe way and gives mantras and support. Repeat the name of God or the mantra to connect with the highest energy, liberating from ignorance and wrong identification with the body. Worldly toys change and disappoint; the inner Self is complete and without suffering. The guru is a paras stone that converts the disciple into a swan, a liberated soul. Without the guru, life had no sense; with the master, there is no more suffering. Realize the guru in yourself.
"Please, do not forget, this is always disappointing, and it will not change. You should understand, you should think on this highest, on God, because this is the inner Self, and that is what we are searching for."
"Realize your guru in yourself."

Don't expect miracles

The soul’s journey to Brahmaloka through the guru’s grace demands endless patience, for the guru shepherds the devotee across lifetimes until liberation.
Worldly life is everything, but the guru follows the soul to Brahmaloka over vast time. The greatest error is to postpone spiritual effort, saying “Tomorrow” or “Next year.” Expecting swift miracles leads to psychic illness—depression, hallucination, false imagination. The only miracle is death; otherwise, the soul waits long in the queue of other realms. The guru’s blessing, given as shelter, protects the disciple until the journey’s end. Purifying the soul’s accumulated karma, heavy as tons of debris, requires ages. Negative thoughts create parallel difficulties. The guru can grant instant liberation but refrains. A farmer delayed joining the guru due to attachment to his son. He waited for his son’s marriage, then a grandchild, then to repay debts. He died and was reborn as a cow, still attached to family duties. The guru visited, offering liberation, but the soul postponed. As a dog guarding the house, it again delayed. As a cobra shielding its grandchild, it was killed by family. The soul became a worm, the lowest form. The guru placed the worm in a lotus offered to Vishnu. At Vishnu’s lotus feet, the worm attained moksha. The guru’s grace carries the soul to Brahmaloka even when karma worsens.
“Do not expect any miracles. And if you want to expect miracles, then you will become psychically ill: depression, hallucination, wrong imagination.”
“Even if your karma is getting worse and worse, one day it will be that you will get into the Brahmaloka.”
