O man, you are sleeping, and you will lose everything. Others learn to wake up early in the morning. Of course, we know that in Europe or Britain they say, "Go to bed early and rise early in the morning," and you will get everything. Some tell it differently, but I tell you the truth: early in the morning, the birds eat all the best food and fruit. Those who wake up early get great luck, and it is best for meditation or anything. There are some people who do not know what yoga is, what meditation is, or anything about God, but they wake up early. Many people go for a walk. It is a great thing. And we have breakfast early. Our breakfast is at seven o'clock, or what time? Nine o'clock. So if I tell you, "First have breakfast at 5 o'clock," then it will not be so. That is called the early morning; you get the first good cherry. It is said there are different kinds of our thinking and our body. One is very alert, very great in meditation, work, etc. And who is lazy? The lazy one is when the sun rises. The lazy one is more deep in the heat. And the neighbor said, "What are you doing? It's already sunrise." They said it's not your problem. But there is a third point. Many people are working at night. Some company has night guards, and in the morning they come back and sleep. So this is not in that counting. But others said that this person is getting the best cherries because he is still in the company, still he is awakened, so that is the best point. So get up early. We have been talking about this many times. Japa, paśu, or pakṣī piyāre, subha āruṣyam. Japa, paśu, or pakṣī piyāre, subha āruṣyam. They go to sleep early, and how they are living life happy. But we humans are a reciprocity, and though we have some time to sleep, at night there is so much gushing up, drinking, etc. So, it is said that we lost the time, which means the time. It is said that the train will not wait for you on the railway. They have given time, maybe two seconds, five seconds, maybe, and even if you are just near a hundred meters, the train will not wait. It will give the signal and then it is gone. So you lost, we said, we lost the railway. So there is one beautiful other bhajan about it, and he said, "The person who is going, traveler, and traveler going, and what is he doing? He is going to get the ticket." The ticket is gone. So there is a very nice bhajan; someone wrote a very nice bhajan, I will tell you sometimes. So Brahmamūrta, the best of the best time is Brahmamūrta. And that is morning, between the night and the day. And so the sun will rise. And if you can see towards the south, a little bit in the sky, a little light, that is good luck. It is a gold luck. It is a silver locket, and peace, harmony, everything. So we shall try to go to sleep earlier. To whom I say first, I have been late sleeping, I am, but not because of the joke. There is much talking, many things, this, that. At that time, then I also eat. It is necessary to arrange a lot, to solve a lot, and also food. But in the morning, it is necessary to wake up. Because in the morning, from the bed you take your Mālā, and many are sleeping. And they make an alarm so that they sleep. Alarm. Then they say, "Oh, time to go. Alarm." Do you know what is an alarm? Do you like the alarm? You can hear that, yes? So early morning, that alarm, and what is that? It’s called Allah and Rāma, that’s called alarm. So how nice it is, everybody’s alarm is ringing. So this is that, how? Which means that Allah and Rāma both are awakening us: "My children, get up now and think on me, mantras, etc." Then another thing is that when we get up early morning, don’t just sit and make a mala. If it is possible, then you should take a shower. If it is a hot day, cold. When it is very cold, warm water. We should do like this. After this, just for a little bit of cold water. Then it is said, the laziness is gone. What is that? Our body is awakening. Our energy is awakening. Everything that is in the body, we can see. Do you want to do it? I will make an experiment. You can do it. I give you permission. Now the sun rises earlier. So, 4:30 or 4 o’clock. Experience, and then you can do your anuṣṭhāna, kriyānuṣṭhāna. Wow, I have my swimming pool. Have you seen that here? Some not so four o’clock, nobody look, you dressed there and go from this side to other side. And that is beautiful. You will come so relaxed. And then go to the sādhanā. Then it is the best. You understand me? So laziness, laziness for everyone is lost. And if you have a company and you are giving all the jobs and work to the workers, but the company’s head is getting up late and comes to the office at ten o’clock. That company goes red, bank, rub. Therefore, before workers come to the office, 20 minutes before the office opens, the person should go there. Then you will be rich, and therefore sleep late, not early. And get up early. So this is a laziness. Please, we shall give up our laziness. And when you say, "Make a saṅkalpa," then it is a saṅkalpa. I have many disciples. And really, the early morning get up and eat and that, and really practice exactly what he has given instructions, what to do. I have many in Vienna, and they were, till the last of his life, that’s a person, they practiced early morning. And at seven o’clock, he had to go to his office, but one and a half hour he practiced from the day when he met me. And he listened to my lecture from that day till his last breath; he was practicing. That was a very great person. So it doesn’t matter if he is a sannyāsī, swāmī, or a householder. So this is the great hour, so we should not be lazy, but we should be very active. That will give you many, many things. And in the early morning, when we practice and everything that we are doing, it will give us a healthy body. And lazy days and late, it will give you not good. Even some disease can come. Because that Gurujī used to say, and in our Hindi language, when we go home to sleep, we say, "Chalo sonā, sojāī sonā." And sonā are two things. One is gold, Sona, and second, sleep. So Gurujī said, our holy Gurujī, he said, both are ready and good. So don’t think that I will not sleep. I will practice longer, not in that way. So when we are tired, we do not sleep. Then what should we do? Sona, take gold. What kind of gold? Sleep. Then, in our brain and in our intense time, all completely will be fit for the gold. All the brains are working, and all are working, like you can say, the ingenuity and blood circulation. Everything will be the best, then you will be very happy, and then breakfast. Now, in the yogic side, eat a lot for breakfast, then eat a little late lunch, and very little for dinner. Now we are on the wrong side. All we eat night, evening, late. They say, "Now we have time, and let’s go for eating and drinking." Or drink some milk, or drink some buttermilk. Or good water, or the grapefruits. And when we are taking the grape juice, we cannot drink all. Then we put it somewhere. That becomes what we call alcohol. It is a grape seed. No problem. It is a problem. That means the grape seed’s quality has turned the other way. So, you know, many times we have some kind of food cooked, anything, and it was there for two or three days, smelling, and we will not eat it. We just throw it. Similarly, this quality is gone. Brahmaloka means there where the best soul is, that will go to the Brahmaloka. The hell and heaven, these are two quarters. That’s it. If you said only the heaven and hell, so you have made a division, and then they will come, or they think they will enjoy there. How many places are there for heaven? Then they will be there, and they will make differences, and someone has many people there in heaven. So many like India, but how many will be coming and coming and coming? And what is the hell? All suffering is by God, so there is no heaven and no hell. It is here, in our thinking, that we have done. Therefore, we shall make everything, whatever we can do, we shall do it in this life. And Brahmaloka, Brahmaloka is what they are all saying, like the sky. And so this is the oneness. We have to come as a heaven. Yes, it’s good, why not? But it will turn back again. So let’s go so that it merges into the sky, like the sky. So you are in the whole sky, in oneness, and we are happy and everything. It will become something. We will see what happens then after. So, Brahmaloka. And therefore it is Ātmā, Ātmā, Paramātmā. Ātmā, Paramātmā, this is our prayer from Śivanandjī, one of Mahāprabhujī’s disciples. And that is a prayer. Ayat-Tamor-Led-Bhag. Nabharūpa vyāpū satyayāpū vimala chetanā atāvā prabhu vimala chetanā dhyāna āgam jagye nigham se satya ātmā Prabhu Nigam Se Sākyayātmā Śrī Guru Ātmā Paramātmā Om Ātmā Puruṣottama Sakal Jagke Yantra Janī Charakī Ātmā Prabhu Charācharakī Pratīt Ho Adhyātma... Pratīt ho adhyātma. So, this kind of many, many bhajans. And many prayers, many poems by all our Mahāprabhujī’s disciples, who may sing bhajans, and they also make the bhajans, and this bhajan is unbelievable. It is something great of the great. There is nothing more than this, you can say. So this we will sing many times. And I will translate. And the translation, we will just tell the translator. But then I go so deep inside. So, I do not remember what he is doing. It means that this one word is so much knowledge inside, that knowledge means the nectar of that wisdom, and that wisdom means feeling in the whole body, in each and every cell in the body, and that’s very important. It’s not like that. So it means that we merge into oneness. Yesterday I told you, or the day after, that one king and another Parsi king came. The Parsi wanted to come to India and Gujarat, and they came. Because the ocean is there, and they asked, "Please, to the king, give us a place in your kingdom." And the king said, "Okay, bring milk and water, one glass with milk and one glass with water. Now, both we shall put in one pot." Where is the water? It also became milk. So, my dear, you should be like this. That we are oneness, like water and milk. And they are still there, keeping their word, the Parsi people in India. So that is how we should merge into that. Then we are not worried about it at all. We become in Brahmaloka. Parabrahma, Paramātmā. This is knowledge, and in that, we have to go. There are many, many literatures, many holy books. You can’t imagine how much in India there are books, and in many different languages. And it’s great, but now this generation did not read anything. And they have everything they have in this, and that’s all for us. So, in my disciples, some of them are enjoying my hair. I don’t know where it is. No, no, no. Don’t kill him. Don’t kill him in my hair. I just pray. Okay. No, no, no. Okay. He or she needs the breath, but it will go. So, Śrī Guru Ātmā, Paramātmā. So, if you give me the... Still we have time, no? So, give me the bhajan. It’s very nice. So, in this bhajan, the Sivanandji of Mahāprabhujī’s disciple, Swami Sivanandji, in India and from India in whole Europe, that once Sivanandji Mahārāj, and he brought yoga around the whole world, and his disciple went through. So everybody knows Sivananda means that Rishikesh is Sivananda. And Śivānanda is great. He passed away at the same time as Mahāprabhujī, in 1963. But many sādhus, many, many sādhus, they have also named Sivananda. Shiva is Shiva, so they all also get the name Shiva. Śiva, Nanda. Nanda, Ānanda. And also Nandi. Śiva and Nanda. Many things you can make, this and that. So, anyhow. So Sivanandjī is a disciple of Mahāprabhujī. And Sivanandjī, Barīkhāṭu and Choṭīkhāṭu, there are two villages. One is for the king and the hills, the very hills. Therefore, it’s a big village, and that flat is about two kilometers away. And that’s called Čotī Khāṭū. Čoṭī means little. And that’s also the king’s family. And their son, he became a sannyāsī. And the parents didn’t want, but he said, "No, I will become a sannyāsī with my holy Gurujī, Mahāprabhujī." Then he also had one nice bhajan that he wrote. Because his parents came and said, "Now please come home." And we will make him, I am married, and etc. He said, "No, I am here with Mahāprabhujī, and there is also Bhajan." And what is that other Bhajan, you know that? Śabd sa nahī mārī jā, terā mārī hālī. Khur na yaave maane daa, e dayā mārī hali. Khur na yaave daa, shabd sa nahi jaa, ush shabdaan se. So, first is Śrī Guru Ātmā. Gurudev is the Ātmā. Our ātmā, our life, our soul. And that is Paramātmā, so it is the highest God. Mahatma, and that is the great saint. A Mahatma can be like that. Purushottama, and that is the highest of the highest, Purushottama. Purum is great, and Purushottama is pure, very clean, and higher. Sakal jag ke ātmā, and also they are all creatures. All creatures, they are all one; they are all ātmā. And also, this is ātmā, the movable and unmovable. That is also so. This is the forehead of the trees. They are here, they are not moving, and others, some, they are moving. So both have life in it. So cara, acara, ātmā—cara-acara means movable and unmovable. All have the life in this. Śrī Guru Ātmā, Paramātmā, Ho Ātmā, Puruṣottama, Sakal Jagke Andar Jāmī, charā-char kī Ātmā. Next, next days.
