The Path of Conscious Living and Mercy
The soul's purification through yoga and mercy is essential in this age. We gather in a place with strong spiritual vibration, welcoming many from around the world. This practice is global and neutral, unrelated to religion, focusing solely on liberating the soul. We are covered by ignorance and karma, often acting without knowing the consequences, which causes suffering for the body, family, and environment. The inner soul suffers greatly. The science of yoga in daily life is for developing spirituality, gaining clarity, and purifying karma to seek forgiveness for unconscious acts. A key difference exists between religion and spirituality; spiritual purity cleanses negative karma. We possess intellect and discernment, but must follow our inner wisdom over ignorance or ego. Central to this is karuṇā, or mercy, which must extend to all living beings. Every creature values its life and feels fear. The demand for meat creates a chain of harm, with major karmic responsibility falling on the consumer. This action, often done unconsciously, creates a cover over the soul, hindering liberation. Purification comes through sincere practice, prayer, and mantras, leading to higher consciousness.
"O God, you are known as equal-visioned. You do not count our sin."
"Therefore, the science of yoga in daily life was developed, and millions of people practice around the world."

There is no greater love than the love of the Mother
The Guru's grace is the supreme principle, beyond all deities. The Earth is our first mother and must be honored before any action. Upon waking, acknowledge your humanity and ask permission to step upon the Earth. She awakens to protect her child. This respect is mirrored in the Earth-breaking ceremony for building a house, ensuring harmony. Farmers understand the right time to work the land. A mother's bond is ultimate; she gives everything and asks only for her child's presence at her death. The physical body returns to the Earth or fire. Do not keep dead beings in the home, as this invites disturbance. We are killing the Earth Mother with chemicals. Eat according to the body's intelligence, not mere taste. Those without a guru are incomplete.
"Mother, can I step on you?"
"Satguru is the eternal Brahmā."

Keep the body healthy
The human life is a rare and precious opportunity to purify karma and realize the soul's nature. The soul, or jīva, is the same essence within all beings, from an ant to an elephant. It takes birth according to its past actions, cycling through countless forms. Negative speech and harmful thoughts create karma that returns to the speaker. One must perform good actions, show kindness to all creatures, and purify the mind. Karma does not forgive; only personal effort through right living and spiritual practice can cleanse it. The human body cannot be bought or rewound; it is a chance to achieve liberation. True spiritual practice is internal, not defined by external robes. Nourish the body with pure food and balance the inner energies through yoga. The goal is to awaken the inner consciousness and become free.
"Two things: time will not wait for us, and karma will not forgive us."
"The bullet in the gun and the word in your mouth are the same. A bullet can kill you, and one word can kill you."
Vakyas are diamonds
True spiritual wealth is found in satsang, not in material greed. A woman heard that a saint's visit made "diamonds rain," a metaphor for spiritual wisdom. She invited a fraud, hoping for literal diamonds. He revealed her greed, explaining true "diamonds" come from sacred company, not deception. This illustrates the two paths: Uthan (elevation) through Sat Sangha (good company) and Patan (downfall) through Ku Sangha (bad company). Satsang is the rare, transformative touchstone in this age. A greedy man asked God for a golden touch, a wish that ruined his life, showing that desires for powers trap us. True grace is wishing only for divine mercy. The Guru transforms the disciple's essence, unlike a stone that merely changes metal.
"Therefore, it is said that in this Kali Yuga, it is very rare to have a satsaṅg. Without satsaṅg, you cannot achieve and you cannot get knowledge."
"Paras makes iron into gold, but Paras does not make the iron into Paras. The Guru makes the disciple into a Guru."

Advice for the education of children
The foundation of a child's education is the love, presence, and guidance of the parents. A mother is the first and best teacher, providing foundational instruction. When both parents work, leaving the child in another's care all day, the deep, continuous connection is missing. This can lead to a child feeling unloved and becoming depressed, questioning their place. The solution lies with the mother and father. If a child is distant, a parent must dedicate time daily for teaching and bonding. A compassionate tutor, especially a female teacher for a young boy, can provide parental-like love and emotional support to alleviate depression. Parents work for money, but children instinctively seek their mother. We must keep children close. Without proper guidance, children may be led astray by influences like pocket money, which can lead to harmful experimentation. You cannot force a growing child without causing breakage. A spiritual teacher or yoga guide can help redirect one onto the right path. We are all learning until our last breath. Fill the mind with good thoughts and knowledge before sleep.
"Who is my mother? I have a mother at kindergarten and a mother at home."
"If you give pocket money, I fear it may lead them astray."
