Every year we enjoy sitting under these beautiful trees, and I think our trees are also waiting, looking forward to our coming here. I think such good air, good prāṇa, is rare. Nowadays, going to the beach is so restless, with so much music playing till midnight, sometimes the whole night. On a nice, cool, and peaceful night, the music travels far, up to 20 kilometers along the beach. There are many trees, birds, and other creatures there. For them, life is like a horror with such loud music that often birds just drop their eggs before they are complete. But here, where we are sitting, we are very blessed. It is indescribable. One cannot pay so much money to have an experience like this every day in life. At the same time, we are all here with beautiful thoughts. No one is offended, no one is angry, no one has a lot of restlessness. We all support each other, and we have in our heart clarity, purity, harmony, peace, love, etc. Also, we have here our Yoga in Daily Life, which is very beautiful. We have spiritual development; we are learning yoga. It is said in the Bhagavad Gītā: "Yoga karmasu kauśalam"—yoga will be successful through our practice and karma, through doing action. We have that practical spirit; when we ask anyone to do something, they are all ready to do it, they run to do their duty. What more could you give? This is the sign of a good soul, a good ātmā, a good heart, and good thoughts—everything. We have our spiritual sādhanās. We have our spiritual lineages. We have opened a wide space which is connected from Brahmaloka till now. The evidence is from that beautiful river Alaknandā. When you come to the Alaknanda, bring some water and mix it with more clean water, and you can use it often. Our spiritual development, our very good sādhanās and mantras—so we are very happy, very relaxed. We are fortunate that in such a Kali Yuga environment we are here, and we are born in this Kali Yuga yet untouched by this Kali Yuga’s actions. What can we do more than this? God gave us a healthy and good human body. We should understand what human life means, what humans should do and what humans should not do. I mean the way of living, nourishment mostly, and not to fight each other. We shall create peace in the world. Every country is our country. Every country is like our neighbor’s village. We trust our neighbor; if we go somewhere, we can give our keys to our neighbors. This is how we are imagining peace in the world nowadays. I can tell you that our Yoga and Dalai people, they never criticize others, they never fight with others, and they really try to do good things for others. Of course, you have to be very careful, because you can get the negative virus. So sometimes when we are very good, someone can attack us, like I told yesterday. There are many people—I don’t know whose, I don’t want to tell—they will stop you at a highway or somewhere, or in a market somewhere, and begin to tell you something spiritual. You can listen to it, no problem, but you should know if it is clear. So, like this, the human body—out of 8.4 million creatures, one is the human. Understand that I am a human. Often, I tell, in the morning when we get up, we say, "I am a human." Only by saying this one word, you are diagnosing your whole body: your psychic, your mind, your consciousness, the whole quality of the humans. And then, being a human, we cannot harm others, and therefore, the whole day you have good actions. For example, if someone is doing something wrong, causing pain or killing someone, we will say it is not human. It’s not humans. So in German, they... But how many pigs are they killing every day? How many pigs? And everything from that pig they are using: blood also, fat also, coat also, and bones also—everything. Similarly, like we are or like that? If they will begin to kill us like that... Now they have such machines: they send a pig from this side in, and in 15-20 minutes it comes out as a sandwich. The machine comes and cuts, and this and that. Poor animals, they are very much suffering. So we are vegetarians, and we can’t see someone killing like that. I am sure, I can tell from my experiences—more of my life is here in Europe than in India—and I see that our people here, European people, they have very much mercy in their heart. They have so much love and understanding, but the food, the killing, is in such a hidden way, and they don’t see that situation when they are bringing, torturing, killing; then you will never eat. Then it is said, "Next life you will be a pig." So now we don’t know, is that pig which was killing you before as a pig? I don’t know. Karma is karma, the destiny. So we have to become free from destinies. We love human, we love human, and we love other creatures. So God gave this human body. More, God cannot give anything. This is what he gave us, everything. And now, still, we don’t understand that it is our karma. So you will go back again, like a football field. There are two parties, two groups: eleven and eleven. Twelve, no? I didn’t count, but I think so. All are trying very hard. But who is the winner? They are making a festival. Others go back sad. But when no one is a winner, no one comes to a goal, then both are equal. They hug each other, and so let us hug each other, okay? We don’t say, "Only I’m the winner." This body—yes, now our doctors and this technology, they understand a lot of things from our body, but still they cannot make that one which God could have done, which nature could have done. You can make some kind of changes in these trees with chemicals, but still, they cannot create one tree like this without anything. Gurujī has written many, many bhajans. He said, "My brothers, my coach is wonderful." Why is it a coach? Because it is movable, and we are also movable. So our body, this is our bungalow, but this is not that bungalow; this is a coach. What we call a movable house, a mobile house—so our body is that movable building. So, oh my brothers, oh sādhus, my coach is very wondrous. "In which I said many times, I said many times"—it means I was born, I went again, I came again back, I went again. So this means that we had many times human birth. God will not throw us just in the garbage. But when there are many, many... many sins we have done, then finally it has to send you somewhere else. In the Mahābhārata, there was one who was very much against Kṛṣṇa, shouting and this and that, and the Pāṇḍavas said, "Why don’t you kill him? That’s a rākṣasa." He said, "Yes, I’m counting." What are you counting? His mistakes, failures. When that many, then I can do something; otherwise, not. Like your police here. You give something to the police, and they said, "No, Shari, we can’t do anything. But first, if one kills you or puts a knife in your stomach, then I can do something, yes." And so, with Kṛṣṇa also, I am counting then. He was counting one more: one, two, three, four, and completed. Then Sudarśana Cakra went and destroyed the Rākṣasa. So God or destiny is waiting. Forgive, forgive, forgive. Doesn’t matter. It’s okay. He or she will learn. In God’s, there is no he and she, no gender dualities. The soul is a soul, and God is taking care of that soul, and this soul should come into the comfortable coach, into the comfortable house. All these houses are nothing. You think it is my house? This is a lie. That’s my cottage? It’s a lie. Then what is mine? This is a house. This house is where you are living. There you are sleeping, there you are walking, you are working, you are thinking, you are eating. Everything is in this house, not our car. Our house is not our camping, not my house. And God gave also other creatures their house. So I can, many times in my this body... So Gurudev comes again and again to bless us for the sake of bhaktas, for the sake of those divine souls. So the captain will bring your boat slowly, slowly, but sure, in which I was sitting. Again and again, how fine was my body. There are some people better. I want to die. I feel so bad under my skin. Don’t worry. Peel it out. There are some people like that, because that is also karmic thoughts, yes? And this one has to come through under the human skin. It will be okay. So that is a training. That’s called tapasyā. This coach, which I have, our body, which is carried by ten horses—Kṛṣṇa had only five horses, but Gurujī said we have ten horses—take care of your horses, clean them, wash them, feed them. Which are these five horses? These are five indriyas, five senses: the jñāna indriya and karma indriya. And this coach is pulled by these indriyas. You want to eat. Let’s say, best is today, always ice cream. You are sitting here, and you are sitting, but your tongue, svādindriyas, they are pulling you to go to the ice cream shop and eat, bring, doesn’t matter how, why not? Sweet, good, pleasant, okay, it’s not a sin, but this sense, feeling. That is called the karma indriyas, that means the desire. So these are the five horses of the desires. So all kind of desires: we say about money, about eating, about properties, about this, about husband, about wife, about going swimming, this, this... all. Good dress, good eating, good shoes, many, many things. And it’s still not enough. Every time you cut the hair till here, no? Sometimes cut off, only sometimes, only like that. Sometimes hanging like this, sometimes crack railing like this. This is a desire: "I want to be beautiful. I want to be beautiful." You are very beautiful. Who said you are not beautiful? Don’t tell God. Don’t blame God, because God has made everyone beautiful in different ways, and everyone is so beautiful. But you have conflict with thyself because you see others as different. And he said, "But my nose is a little bit like this." That’s a beautiful nose of the papaya, you know. Parrot. Oh, the parrot is so nice. And some say my nose is up like a zebra. How nice. The zebra has a big nose. More air goes in the mouth because when he is running, he needs more air. God has made something. He knows why he does like that. And let’s say you make a cosmetic, and you cut this nose and put another nose there. Life long, you will be unhappy. Oh God, my own nose is more beautiful than this. So God, God is all creatures, and everyone is different. But still we have desire, and therefore God gave the desires. Because without desires, you will not do anything. You will not do any karmas. Therefore, five horses. And these are the horses of the desires, and they let you dance. Your desires will let you dance. Play many games. This, that, I like this, I don’t like that, I want to have this, everything. So, these are the five horses, and the five horses are the jñāna. Jñāna indriyas. So jñāna is knowledge, and these give us information from the external world, and we learn everything through these five senses. So, through our visions, eyes we can say, "Ah, this is a beautiful old tree. This one is a young tree, yes. The Muktamani is sitting, and she has a very nice white trouser and yellow Yogananda life shirt. I don’t know, is she here somewhere? I don’t know the example and Radha. She has a black glass. Where is she? Why not? It’s good. God made everything so good." But this is the knowledge: listening. If one year you can’t hear anymore, you are deaf. It’s so unpleasant. Always, you say, what did you say? Oh yeah, tell me this now. So God gave perfect balance of the ears near the brain. He could have given these two ears on our thighs. Similarly, our nose. Smelling, prāṇa and smell. Thanks to God. He didn’t give the nose somewhere down here, under the armpit. But God gave the nose at a higher level, so good air comes there. And if God didn’t give the sound, you can’t speak. Karma yoga. So these are the ten horses: five karma-indriyas and five jñāna-indriyas. And these five jñāna-indriyas and karma-indriyas, these are ten horses. And they pull our coach, our body, that side, this side, that side. And what a wonderful walk that was. These horses, every horse has different movements. One has high shoes. Others have different shoes. Yes or no? Everyone, let us dance. One like that, one like this, one like that. Yes, I want to go now to Hawaii. Who is pushing you to Hawaii? That, that horse, desire. No, I want to go now to the Adriatic coast, the one of the best swimming coasts in the world. I’m not making the advertising, but it is. Sure, how nice. There is no high waves, there is no high fees, but now in the holidays, time becomes horror: very dirty, very noisy, mistake of the humans. So I will tell you, do not go on this time. Go in this winter. Ah, nice cold water. Peaceful, no music. And water is more clean, because it’s so clean, like a tear of the peacock bird. The pure water is like pearls. And the pearls are so clean, like the tears of the peacock bird. Peacocks have no tears, and you can’t see the pure bird. Anyhow, so these are the ten indriyas. It is yours. They are all pulling your body. So, knowledge and desire. These five jñāna-indriyas, they are only five jñāna-indriyas through which we have learned everything. There is no sixth jñāna-indriya. This is in our yoga science. This is Vedānta, philosophy, etc. Thus, Gauḍa tells about Ajabchalapara, how they are all, every horse has its own movement. Some are people who, Jñānendriya, they like to learn and read and read... and read. There are many people who cannot sleep without reading something. That Gulabjī Kotharī, you know, his father was also here, Kapurchenjī, and we were together in Debrecen, and we stayed in the hotel, and so there was nothing to read. So he found an old newspaper somewhere under the cushions. And he took this, and he read it. Luckily, it was in English, not Hungarian. And he got very good information. He put this paper and brought it to me and saw me in the morning at breakfast. Look, Swāmījī, about something Hungarian or international news. He said, "It’s my habit, anything, even a piece of newspaper, I would like to read something, and then I can sleep nicely." The mother Lakṣmī, the Sarasvatī, the Śakti, Sarasvatī is the goddess of wisdom, knowledge is with her, it’s her. So many, many good things are with those devīs, and she is the goddess of wisdom, knowledge. She is the goddess of knowledge. But still, she has one book in her hand all the time. So it means, in learning, there is no end. And reading something in knowledge is always more and more, and good and good. So our jñāna-indriya, jñāna-indriya should always be clean, because there can be manipulation. You can give the negative information, you can give the good information. If you have a pure spirituality in your vidyā, in your jñāna, even if someone is wrong, makes a mistake, you have viveka. You will go to that person and tell and make a correction, but not explode everything. Then it means that is not a Jñānī, it is a jñānī. Jñānī means the knowledgeable, jñānī bīn means full, that’s it. So these are the ten horses, indriyas as horses. Horse, horse is a very holy animal in this creation, only one is a male, only one is the horse. Male, others are females. They have quality: male, female, male, female. Women have the male qualities, and males have women’s qualities. Every creature which is born as a baby, they have a sign of the chest. So you are a father, but you have the chest. But also the buffalo have, the goat have, the cow have, everyone, but the horse does not. Yes, that is that, and therefore it’s called Pūrṇa. The horse is the Pūrṇa. The horse is very holy, very loyal. Don’t kill them. Don’t eat them. Don’t torture them. Yes, they are beautiful. Anyhow, so these are all ten indriyas, which are ten horses. If the horses are not trained, they can be very wild. Or if you train them, they can be very good. So, how everyone has their, their walk? Buddhi, buddhi, buddhi is intellect, positive intellect, buddhi, and lagam? What you give in the mouth, horse? What we say in English? That is the lagam, the hop controlling. So, okay, so buddhi, our intellect, is controlling these twelve horses. So when you make a mistake or no mistake, and this and that, it means one. Of your hearts was not under control, and it is that the rider, his mind, so these five or ten indriyas are under the control of your mind. This all is a drama of the mind. And mind? Where is the mind? Which part of the body do you have the mind? Did you see the mind? Can you somewhere, one day, hold it? Where is the mind? Mind is like a reflection. And you see, like a mirror, and in a mirror you see, but you can’t touch. So that mind is not catchable, but it is connected to the indriyas, and therefore, always we shall keep in our mind the good thoughts, good feelings, good actions, everything. And in this coach... There is a very beautiful lighting in our bungalow. We must have a light. If you go into the dark in your room, you will give something. Here is a very nice ball, so that our knowledge, our vidyā, is this light in our bungalow. Our knowledge is the light, and this knowledge we learn from the Jñānendriyas. Gurujī said, "Anāhada is limitless, without boundary." So the light is so bright, there is no border, and that is your knowledge, so wide. It is said, "Kavi" means the point. Where the point can go far and write something, so that his or her thoughts of the point go beyond where this sun cannot reach, that so far. And so is that knowledge, which have yoga, positive thinking, very positive thinking. No one is angry, and no one tries, how to say, to harm, etc., etc., anāhadbhaya ujjara. So, our viveka, our knowledge, our kindness, our humbleness, this means such a light of your knowledge which is endless. And this is in our body. What are you searching for outside? Search within you. Oh, my friend, where are you searching for me? In the jungle, my house is in the forest. But my Self is within me. If you will search me within, no time, I will meet you within my Self in body. That is a very nice one bhajan. So when you will search, I will be in me. Now. We will continue this evening, because your next program is calling you, so that’s for you. Wish you all the best, and we will continue again this evening with this bhajan of Holī Gurujī. So it is very, very beautiful, very beautiful, Satguru Swāmī Madhvanānjī. Bhagavān Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Dev Purīṣa Mahādeva Alak Purījī Mahādeva Satya Sanātana Dharma. Oṁ Śāntiḥ Śāntiḥ... Hari Oṁ.
