One in All and All in One

Faith is the most powerful energy, granting confidence. The mantra "Om Prabhu Dīpa Niranjan" brings light, removing suffering and negativity. This light means happiness and peace, purifying every cell. The Guru is one, though forms appear many. Absolute faith in the Guru and the single, powerful word is essential. Do not imitate the Guru's actions, only follow the teachings.

"Om is eternal. There is nothing higher than Om."

"Guru is only one. Body is thousands, millions."

Loving bhaktas, many, many are calling me with messages through television and other means. We are all together, praying for them. I am sure that Mahāprabhujī, Devapurījī, Alagpurījī, and Bhagavān will serve and save everyone. They will be good, and people should have confidence. We should have faith, for faith is one of the most powerful energies and a source of powerful confidence in ourselves and with others. This mantra comes from our Gurudev, Swami Mādhavānandajī. Bhagavān, he said this mantra with Mahāprabhujī’s inspiration. Mahāprabhujī said this bhajan, and Holy Gurujī made this mantra. Mahāprabhujī said, "Yes, that is the best mantra for you and for all." Om, Prabhu. Om. We know Om. Om is eternal. There is nothing higher than Om. Any time we write or sing any mantras, first we say Oṃ Śānti, Oṃ Dhyāna, Oṃ Mantram, Oṃ Tryaṃ Vāk, Yajña. So in this mantra we are saying, first we say Oṃ. We are getting directly... this is like a big bomb to bring light, peace, and harmony. Om. That is why Mahāprabhujī gave me this blessing long ago in Australia in one satsaṅg. After, Mahāprabhujī said... Om. Since that time, from 1973—or 1972—Mahāprabhujī said, "Om." The Om is eternal Om. In every mantra, it is said, "Om Harīṁ Śrīṁ," always Om, Om... So first, Mahāprabhujī said, Gurujī said, "Om Prabhu, hey Prabhu, hey Bhagavān, hey Lord, hey Merciful," etc. Mahāprabhujī, Om Mahāprabhu. "Mahā" means the greatest, the highest, the powerful. Om, after the Om is the highest power, is Om Prabhu. Om Prabhu. Prabhu is God. Prabhu is God, you know. The highest mantra of Hanumanjī—Hanumanjī was all the time saying, "Om Prabhu, Om Prabhu." Hanumanjī mantra: Om Prabhu Hari Om. Om Prabhu, Om Prabhu. Everybody, "Hey Prabhu." Om Prabhu, Om... Prabhu, that is the Om Prabhu Dīpa. That, please bring the light. It means my suffering, my pain, my negative thoughts, and all these can be removed from dark to the light, from darkness to light. Om Prabhu. Deep the light. When we learn this and repeat this mantra in our heart, in our thoughts, in our feelings, in many things, the light comes. What means the light? Light means happiness, peace. The pain will go away, comfort. The prakāśa means not this light we make like this light. It means all difficult things gone, everything through that whole body. Oṁ Prabhu Dīpa Nirañjana. Today we are praying for our dear. Niranjan. The Niranjan. Ni means nothing. No. Niranjan. And that, Ranjan, will be pure, and the negative will go. Niranjan Sabhā. All Sabhā means, from our one hair to each and every cell of our body, the whole of our body, and our parents, our brothers, all who are near us, even our animals. It brings that light and this vibration. That is called Oṁ Prabhudīp Niranjan, Niranjan. And what is that Niranjan? Niranjan means no ranjan, no any kind of spot. That is Niranjan, Alak Niranjan. This is one of the best mantras. That is what we are also calling, "Om Alak Niranjanam, Om Alak Niranjan," or just only Śivjī. That is Śiva’s mantra, Alak Niranjan, Alak Niranjan... In the cave of the rocks, a yogī is sitting there, and he is chanting this mantra: "O Malak Niranjan." A tiger coming in the cave will run away. Who? The tiger, yes. All animals will run away because it is so powerful and alak niranjan. Alak means there is no any spot on it, pure to pure. And that is the trishul. Trishul is that, Shiva. That’s why Shiva always has a trishul, a mantra. This mantra... What Mahāprabhujī has given to Holy Gurujī, and Holy Gurujī gives it to everyone, is this mantra. And they said to me, "Mahesh, give more: Om Prabhudeep Niranjan Sabduk Banjan." But many people said, "Always give me the same mantra, Gurujī. Can you give me the second mantra?" Yes, I can give you many, but all it comes again to Mahāprabhujī: "Om Shoham Shagun Brahma Śrī Deep Paripūran Nārāyan Namaha." Again, we are there on that point, and so this mantra is so powerful. But those who have no faith and those who are running in many things—it means you are going in one cave, you are going in another cave. When you are going on the other rock, and you talk and balk and funk, then you are nowhere, have a confidence. The Guru can be strict, and the Guru can be very humble. He is very humble, but sometimes his words are like this, like an arrow. And why is the arrow there? It is taking a needle out from the brain. The big needle is gone in the brain. Who can take it out now? A doctor will operate brains, but that kind of needle, it is that, that kind of arrow will come, bring up, that’s it. Those who cannot take it as happiness, joy, then you are the disciple of the guru, and guru is that, "My disciple." Little one, say you run away, then run, go, hurry home. Many times, you know, Holy Gurujī... Some were there for one day, five days, ten days, one month, and Gurujī knows that still this person is not... One day in Baḍī Khāṭū, in the new building, Holy Gurujī was on the fifth floor because he wants to see the Khaṭū Dūna or this. There was one young man, so he goes up. Gurujī said, "Bring from this the fruit." He comes there. Gurujī said, "Bring that." Lotha, he goes and comes back, and then goes and calls the, let’s say, my kitāb, book. What is Gurujī’s book? And so Gurujī said, "Go quickly." And he said, he spoke, said one such a word which should not be said to the Gurujī, not to say to your father, not to say to your mother. So, he said to Guruji, and Guruji took a chuck, "Go down, but don’t come up anymore." So he went down, and there he was. And he lost many things. And he said, "Please, kibaija, Guruji." But Guruji said, "Do not come. Never say this word to anyone." Arre. Arre means just not a good A. Ah, you know. So, "Arre yaar." "Yaar" means your lover, you see. So, "Arre yaar." Gurujī said, "Arre yaar, laata hoon. I’m bringing my yaar." Gurujī said, "Tera bāp kā yār." It was, and that remember, everywhere same thing was Mahāprabhujī. So Gurujī know how many? So Prakāś puñjam mṛttak ke sāgar śrī dīpārī madanī hai. Sāre viśva mein guñj raha Prabhu kā amarkanī. Ye amar jari hai, Bhajan hai na? Bahut amna, Amar jari, Amari aaj pushpa gaegi. So there, Om Prabhudeep Niranjan, Sab. Sab means all. What means all? First, all difficulties of our body, pain, this, that, and problems, this everything, this will be, but grace. Guru grace only will be there. Confidence 100,000, then it will go. Otherwise, you are there. You are going there. You are going to that religion. You go to the cat. You go to the cat.... You go to the cat. You go to the cat... You go to the cat. You go to the cat. You go... to the cat. You go to the cat. You go to the cat... You go to the cat. You go to the cat. You go to... the cat. You go to the cat. You go to the cat. You... Go to the cat. You go to the cat. You go to... The cat? You go to the cat? One goes to Tulsīdās, one goes to Kṛṣṇa, one goes to Rām, one goes to Hanumānjī, one goes to Kṛṣṇa, one goes to Jesus, one goes to Tija, one goes to Fija. What is that? We go to everybody, we respect everyone, but one is mine, and that is Mahāprabhujī. Holy Gurujī said, "I bow down to every temple, I bow down to all the sādhus, I accept all great peoples," but Holy Gurujī said to me, "Mahesh, this head only will bow down to Mahāprabhujī." That’s it. Then you are sure and Om Prabhudeep Niranjan Sab Dukha. All problems, dukha means all kind of... Om Prabhudeep Niranjan Sab Dukha Banjan. Banjan means all will go away. All will go away. But once you run away... There are people who say, "Swāmījī, come, please, Gurudev." I come to me, I bless him, then he goes to Hanumanjī’s mandir, Hanumanjī, Hanumanjī, Hanumanjī. Neither he looks to you, nor to them. Hanumanjī is on the statue first, and after that, he goes to the other side. So that’s why Gurujī said, our Gurudev said, "One in all and all in one." Where is that all? All in one and all, and one in all, where? Mahāprabhujī. Mahāprabhujī. And power. The power is Devapurījī. Devapurījī, if he can do like this, he’s done. And if he’s not done like this, he will not be. That’s it. Word, śabda. Śabda se nahī̃ māre jā, tārā māre helī, aur nāve māre dāī, dāī māre helī. O Rāṇā, O Marīdāī, thāy marīelī. Śabda se nahī̃ marījā, tārā marīelī. Śabda se nahī̃ marījā, tārā marīelī. Śabda se denā Rāma, śabda se lenā. Śabdo se lenā Rāma, śabdo se lenā e. Śabdo se karne hai bāt, bāt mariyeli. Śabdo se karne hai bāt, bāt mariyeli. Śabdo se nahī̃ mārī jāta, rā mārīyeli. Śabda se nahī̃ mārī jā, mantra mārīyeli. Aur nām citāyī, dai mārī helī śabda sā nahī̃, mārī jām taram mārī helī śabda sā nahī̃ jām, mārī helī śabdõ se sūje Rāma, śabdõ se bhūjhe he, śabdõ se cal asat pariyelī. Śabdo sanehī mārī jā, śabdo se bhelā ra, śabdo se melā āyī, śabdo se bhelā se melā, śabdo sanehī mārī jā, śabdo se jogīrā. Only that spiritual bhaktas, those who are on the path of spirituality and on the path of their Guru, and they are completely in one, only one Shabda. Ek Shabda, Eko Brahma Ditya Nasti. Eko Brahma Ditya Nasti. Avatthapurījī, Yes, so. What does that mean? Dityanasti Eko Brahma. "Only Brahman is, only one." That Gurudev is one. All Gurus, hundred thousand millions of Gurus there, but all they are only one. When you got that, a real Guru’s blessings, you got a Guru, satsaṅg, Guru. Āśrīvād Gurū gave this mantra, Gurū. When the guru is there, then there are no two gurus. Śabda, only one śabda is called guru or master. Master is a master. It doesn’t matter which kind of master, but there is only one master. Or similarly, that master or your school teacher, you know, what means the teacher? The students are sitting, and the teacher is teaching. Learn, teacher, teacher is here, you know, that power is that. Therefore, eko brahma dvitīyo nāsti. Kish karant mein kaha hai, Ekobrama, Adi Guru Shankarāchārya, "Ekko Brahman." Only one is the Brahman, and rest is only still not in order, like that. So, all Guru don’t say that, "I am only the Guru." If someone said, "I am only the Guru," it means he is not a Guru. Who are true? You know what is a Tata? Oh, my god. You don’t know what is this "tata tata"? Of course, you are not an Indian, you are not Rajasthanese. "Tata tata" is the goats and sheep in the forest and their master, the person who is taking care of the shepherd. So the shepherd said, "Now you come on." Right side, my God, something is like that, therefore. Guru is only one. Body is thousands, millions. You understand me today? Guru is only one, and bodies are thousands. Likewise, mother is one, but bodies are millions. What? Because every woman who gives birth to a child is a mother, so your mother is also a mother, and that is also a mother. Aaj kāl, kāl de pāpī pāpī, māmī māmī, mā me. This is different in English and Sanskrit language. Mā, mā means the whole. The mouth opens, mā, pāp, mā me. If you speak in English, if you presume that, then of course "mummy" is the best. But as an Indian, and in this Indian tradition and culture, then you should say "mā." Best is that who is saying good, the... Muslims will not say "Mami", they will say they are Muslims. What do they call them? What do they call them? Ameen. That’s it. Come to our path. Therefore, if you have one guru, yes, you have only one guru. And that doesn’t matter. One horse is good in the race, but a second is also in the race. Other is not for the race. The third is just in my stable. But they are all there, of a horse. That’s it. So if one is talking a lot of lectures, like me, and now someone said, "Okay," and then finished, and some are talking every day, all the Śaṅkarācāryas, Śaṅkarācāryas, everyone is talking only that. I want to say that we all know that. Now, what can you give us like this? And so, Śaṅkarācārya jī is life now. He is the life. Śaṅkarācārya is not left at everywhere. Śaṅkarācārya jī, where there is this color, automatically Śaṅkarācārya Bhagavān. Śaṅkarācārya kā ye bhagwā hai. Ye color jo hai, Śaṅkarācārya jī ne diyā hai. And this means this color has many, many, many... Meaning, which I always said, what means the color? First color is the sunrise. Second color is the fire. Second color is the very calm peace. Second, that I am in the fire. We are sitting in the fire, and we are purifying. We are sanyāsīs. We... Are sitting in the fire, that’s it. And so many, many things. And also, when we are walking in the street somewhere, orange dress, everyone will say, "Oh, somebody is coming." Otherwise, someone can face an accident. Yes, color hai. And this is a fire. This is the fire, and that’s why all the sādhus said, "I have only one skin, and that is orange, and second, my skin is that," which means, "I am forever." Why? What we call the Nāgā Bābā, what means that? They said, "We will, we will take care of all. Doesn’t matter, we will, we will fill in, jump in the field. Doesn’t matter, no body, in the kapada, nothing, but I will take, save everyone." That’s it. Nāgā Bābā is like an army, a big army, and it was a long time. There were all the kings, and the kings were feeding the sādhus, all of them, and they worshipped them. Now, still there, but of course, you have to be the first like that, not for a time being, have an orange dress, take the machine. Get a prasad, bandaras, and money, and after go at home with lungi, tungi, pungi. So that is, ye rankya kya kaam ke liye hai? Is ka hai surrendering. That’s it: I surrender, and I renounce. This is a colour of the renounce, therefore it is called. Śaṅkarācārya jī is not gone. He is here, and so many Śaṅkarācāryas are sitting here. So, Śaṅkarācārya said, Śaṅkarācārya said, "Eko brahmaduttya nastri," all my bhaktas and all on the path, truth, the truth, the truth. And so, Guru, Millions of, we have the billions of the Gurus we have. But of course, you have the disciples, and don’t be the slave of your student. Then you are not a guru; you are just going. That’s why Gurujī said, "What was this bhajan?" Śabda sanehī, śabda sanehī. Śabda means my word, your word. This śabda, śabda means if you tell somebody, "Hey, stupid man," this is also śabda, but negative śabda. Negative śabda is like this, nowadays it is a corona. This is Corona. This Corona is the needles, the needles, the needles. Know they have given very nice symbols, and wherever you have touched, everywhere is like needles. And that is needless if we are talking negative to everybody, and you are not right to your Gurudev, and you are then you are stuck in that purifying. So therefore, in this, we are free. Everything that should happen within, inside, explode it into the fire. And that will be gone, therefore we are praying today. I want to really, really, from my heart, for all... my bhaktas, my disciples, my Gurujī. And Gurujī, then after some years, he said, "Because you are in Europe, I give you the blessings that you can make the mantras." But everywhere. From when? I got sannyās, and I was there from 1960 to 1967. And that Gurujī gave me the blessings and sanyās, and gave me a chip. Oh God, he said, "Now you cannot go anywhere, it is this dress." Yes, oh God, because when you see, we have a very big last, nearly 30 years construction of the highest mantra, Oṁ. First is the home, but you know how much that a person who is sitting on the stone, on that stone, and sitting on that, and one leg on it, in second mood is a cigarette, and with other like this, and then again on it, but when the statue became one nice, he said, "How beautiful." That’s it. So the master is making this beautiful pillar with a statue. My dear, look at our holy Gurujī’s. You cannot see that it is a statue. It is a life, and how nice Gurujī is giving blessing. But before, it was only a stone. And they were rolling the stone, but now, who made this statue? He himself. He makes the praṇām, "Gurudev." Kisi samay wohī guru hai, wohī hogā. Otherwise, you don’t try to go that, "I am better than my guru." Okay? You have college, you have many. Many diplomas, all diplomas, everything, but still you cannot be in the front of that, because Guru is Guru. This Bhagavad Gītā, Śaṅkarācārya is here. He is still Śaṅkarācārya. Śaṅkarācārya is the truth, the truth. And that truth is only one, and that is... And Gurujī said, "One in all." And all in one. Therefore, all my bhaktas who are listening and who are not listening, next time you will listen. And we will read this mantra: Om Prabhudeepaniranjan, Sabadukkha bhanjan. Bolo Om Prabhudeepaniranjan, Sabadukkha bhanjan. Om Prabhudeepaniranjan. Śabadukkha bhanjan Om Prabhudeepaniranjan om prabhudipaniranyam śabadukabhanyam. While chanting this mantra, please send this power to all our brothers, sisters, and all people who are very disturbed with the medicine or something or this. So please, we pray for them. OM PRABHUDĪ PĀṆIRĀÑJAN SĀVADHŪKABHAÑJAN Om Prabhu Dīpaniranjan, Sabaduka Banjan Om Prabhu Dīpaniranjan, Sabaduka Banjan... Oṁ Prabhudī Panirañjan Sabaddhukābhañjan.

Om Prabodhi Paṇiranyan, Śabaduka Vanyan. Om Prabodhi Paṇiranyan. Om Brahma Deep Narayan Bhagwan Ki Devadi Dev Deva Ishwar Mahadeva Satguru Swami Madhavananji Bhagwan Ki Satya Sanatan Dharma Ki Adi Guru Bhagwan Shankaracharya Ki Jai Ho. That bhajan you didn’t know? Which bhajan? Not śabda. The other one: bhūti. We shall overcome. Amarjani. Gurujī, we could sing, "We shall overcome." Okay, tomorrow, okay? Yeah, okay. Hari Om. Now, today, a little better, our Swami, Avatār Purījī will say something. Michael, go this way. Hari Om. As today Vishwagurujī was speaking a little bit about Ādiguru Śaṅkarācāryajī, and as you know, a few days back was also Ādiguru Śaṅkarācāryajī’s Jayantī, his birthday. So I will tell you a short story about Ādiguru Śaṅkarācāryajī. So, as you know, Ādiguru Śaṅkarācāryajī was one of the most learned persons at that time, until now. There was no one who was more learned than him. He knew all the Vedas, all the Purāṇas, all the Upaniṣads. He knew absolutely everything till the age of 12. At that time, he was known as the most knowledgeable person in the whole world. At the age of 12, to test his own knowledge, he used to call the greatest scholars and the greatest teachers from all around India to compete with him in a short, we call it a śāstra, a question-answer session. He asks a question, they answer; they ask a question, he answers. So to test his own knowledge, he used to organize as many śāstras as possible. And he was always the winner of every single śāstra possible. And as you know, he liked to walk a lot. He crisscrossed the whole nation up and down and left and right four times by the age of 32. He didn’t drive, he didn’t walk. He was... he just was walking the whole India. And there was one story which I heard somewhere, where Śaṅkara was once walking. And you know, in the Indian culture, all gurus have disciples. So when the Gurujī... is walking, then the disciple walks behind him. When he sits, he sits. When he eats, he eats. When he drinks, he drinks. The disciple drinks. They don’t go ahead; they are always walking behind. And Śaṅkara was walking quite fast, so his disciples... We were trying to catch up, but they were running and he was walking. It was okay. So Ādiguru Śaṅkarācārya stopped at one village, and he had his lunch for food and everything. There was one type of restaurant, or you can say it’s a type of a... Bar, and at that time in India, there was a drink called... made out of palm tree, and also it was some type of coconut water, but it was also mixed with some alcohol. It can be light, or it can be strong. But that place where Śaṅkarācārya went, it was quite strong because you could see the people rolling on the ground. It was so strong. So Ādiguru Śaṅkarācārya took the whole can and drank it. So the disciples were thinking, "What did he do?" Okay, he drinks, he eats, we eat. He stops, we stop. So he drank, why don’t we drink? So they said, "Okay, the next village when we stop, we will also try what he drank." But Śaṅkarācārya was antaryāmī, so he knew what they were thinking. So Ādiguru Śaṅkarācārya, in the next village, he stopped by a goldsmith. He was working with. Iron, so that goldsmith had a whole pot of melted iron. Ādiguru Śaṅkarācārya took that whole jar of boiling hot melted iron and drank it, and the disciples were saying, "Okay, we are not going to do that." So the moral of the story is, you should never copy what your guru is doing; you should follow his. Follow his footsteps, you should do what he says. You don’t copy what he does. If your guru does something, you don’t try to copy and imitate him and do the same thing. You always follow him and do what he says, as Viśva Gurujī always says, which means when you have Gurudev’s blessings, when you have Gurudev’s kṛpā on you. Then the disciple, the śiṣya, is always full of happiness and joy. Thank you very much. Hari Om. Thank you. So, thank you. Hari Om. Till tomorrow, and please, prayer for everyone. Śāntiḥ, śāntiḥ, śāntiḥ.
