The human condition is defined by ignorance and a futile pursuit of immortality within the physical form. Humans possess great arrogance and technical skill but remain confined by the body and its elemental nature. Even deities are subject to change, and no being in a physical form can be granted immortality. True immortality exists only beyond the five elements, as the soul or Ātmā. Human life is consumed by fear, desire, and material accumulation, which creates suffering and severs connection from righteousness. Modern society exacerbates greed and hardship, distancing people from dharma and spiritual truth. The soul is eternal but trapped and unhappy within the physical body; liberation comes when it departs and merges with the universal consciousness, like a drop returning to the ocean.

"Immortality is when you are not in the physical body."

"The soul is in our body, and the soul is not happy, but our body doesn’t want to let go."

Om Namaḥ Śrīde Prabhu Dīpa Nārāyaṇam. Om Namaḥ Śrīde Prabhu Dīpa Nārāyaṇam. Śrī Dīpa Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jaya. Devādhi Deva Deveśvara Mahādeva Kī Jaya. Good evening. Today is a day—good, and a little better, but not entirely good. Yet, that is how it is. This is about the cosmic Self, Himself: how and what He is doing. We humans think we are great and that we can go everywhere in space. We go to space, but we do not know what is there. We are completely closed. We cannot go out. If we are there, perhaps it is like fluttering. But we do not know how to exhale, what to eat, or how to do it. So still, oh men, you aspire to go beyond where God is, but it is not like that. Of course, on the other hand, we humans have learned a lot. We see a lot. We try a lot. We are making very good things. That is all right. But we are not immortal. It is said that even the gods who come—being worshipped, arriving—even Śiva, even God Rāma, even Kṛṣṇa, or many other gods, all the different twelve gods, they are changing all the time. We know that many times, in some films or stories like this, the Rākṣasas go to the gods and ask, "Please give me immortality." Neither Brahmā, nor Śiva, nor Viṣṇu, etc. The Rākṣasa said to Brahmā, "You are the god of all humans. I want you to give me what I desire." He said many things. Brahmā said, "Perform tapasyā for ten years, five days, or five years, etc. Hang on trees or stand on one leg, tapasyā, tapasyā." These beings, what we call the negative or aggressive ones, they have so much power, and they want to become immortal. But the gods said that cannot be. Yet they performed that tapasyā. Then Brahmā comes, and the Rākṣasa said, "I did my sādhanā." Brahmā said, "Yes, what do you wish?" He said, "I want to become immortal." Brahmā said, "No one can be immortal. You can ask for something else." For many years, that is okay, but immortal we cannot be. And they said, "You can ask anything." So they try, asking for this or that and many things. There is also one Rākṣasa who said this. But you cannot become immortal. Immortality is when you are not in the physical body. Then you can be immortal. But you have to give up these five elements. Then there is Ātmā, Paramātmā, and you can always be in Brahmaloka. Also, they are Rākṣasas. They are also in space, very terrible things. But they have no body. They have no elements. But still, they are fighting in there. So, it is said that when one comes as a human, the human says, "I am great, I am okay, I study very long, I am a scientist, I am a yogī, I am this, I am that." But it will not come. When one is going after death, how long it will be, how it will go, where it will go—we do not know. We have listened in many other religions, and also the Indians, the Hindus, the Brahmins, etc. We have the books, holy books, many, and we have Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva, Devī, Śakti, Śiva, and others, many, many things in our spiritual spaces. But they cannot realize this as long as we are physically in this body. Then we say, "Oh, I have this god, I have that god, I would worship this." But have you done it? See that everything is, we are meditating in ourself, in our mind, and it is very good. Perhaps the ṛṣis or gurus or any god said something good they gave us, and so humans are worshipping pictures, everything. Through that, there are two things. One thing is they have fear. Everyone has fear, and out of fear they are making a pūjā, praṭhanā, worshipping many things because they have fear. Not that kind of fear, but still, "I want, I cannot, but I want to have this. Who can give me this?" Then our mind, our worship, our masters, our gurus—all receive. They said prayer, worship, respect, bow down, etc. Through that we have controlled the human’s balance and human power. Otherwise, the humans are beyond righteousness; they can do all. So we have done many, many things, in many countries, and we are very happy, and we are creating money. Does one bird carry any money? Any animals, are they getting the money and holding this money? They know what they do. They are living. But we humans are different, and that is why there is that: the feelings, the powers inside, the power that I will be worshipping my Guru, my God. It doesn’t matter the female or the male śakti, bhakti, etc. That is coming in us. And so our parents, when we get the child in the stomach, the embryo, then how are we thinking about that? The mother, and the father, and grandmothers, and brothers, sisters talking about, "My other, my brother or sister will come in this." We are inside, and because the human understands. And that is why we humans are remaining with each other, we are friending, we are the friends, we are everything. And nowadays, it is very rare to behave as a real person. Otherwise, everyone wants to take away from others as much as they try to take. One person just now happened, was taking so much money from the corona, somebody, someone, to this and that and that. A lot of money came, yeah. "I want to do this, I don’t know my doctor or what, I don’t want to tell anybody," and suddenly he died. That paper of the money we can use is now, because now there is no more wood. People are born, people die, and when you have the wood, they are asking, "How many thousand rupees? 70,000? 80,000?" Then I, your father, you can burn. Otherwise, we will see so many who had no money. He was there, his wife was not there, mother was not there, some other one. But he had so much money. Now nobody is burning his body with the money now. For what are we bringing and doing? But we are doing, we are doing things for human creations and human comfort, good, everything good. Roads, this, that, we are making for the humans, and humans will do also for the animals, too. Life is that, but what is after that life? That is that every cobra, when he dies, his soul... One human dies, he has also his soul. And they, these two souls, maybe said, "Oh, you were the man there, and you... I was a cobra." And said, "Oh, you were very powerful." Cobra. He said, "Yes, I was bringing like this and this." But now, what is it? No, no, now it’s nothing, only like this. They have no prāṇas. Jīva. Jīva, Jīva, Bhakṣate. Jīva, Jīva, Bhakṣate. Animals eat the animals. But, oh human, you are above this. Therefore, the human should not kill other creatures. Not eating them, there was when it came. I don’t know, but how many yugas from that time? There were no buildings, no house, only some from the grass, or under the rock, under the trees, like this. He, who, how was building? But as much as we try to do this, we get more and more ego and think, "It is mine, and I want to have, and it will be more, and I want." Many people work the whole day. One man is working, or one, now also the women are working. Coming at home, two, three children, one or two animals, cows or buffaloes or goats or something. Electricity we need, water we need. People, how to live? That money is coming now more and more, but they are taking away. Government or more, or more, others also taking more and more. And there are someone who is trying to get from everyone. They will suffer, they will suffer. You turn so much and not doing anything, therefore. Therefore, it’s called an āśram. Āśram means "come," āśram means comfort. Be here, āśram. That’s an ashram for all. But even the many people who want to come to the ashrams, and they should give money back, this and that, what will they do? There are many problems. There are not so many ashrams, and with little water, they will not let. They bring the water, not electricity. This means now these governments, and this is what they said, they are not that human. Sanātana Dharma doesn’t matter if the Christians, or the Jewish, or Muslims, they are religious, and all the Hindus or Buddhists. We are searching and giving all of life. But no, that is also cutting their fingers. And that’s why Kali Yuga is coming in this way. How it will suffer this now. So Sanātana Dharma, so sun, sun, all suns. And we should help and help and help. We are making for making a help, and the other comes to there to take the money away, because this is a, we have to government to have to give this, and that government, what is government doing so much money, where it is going, when elections. And in election, also, we don’t know where it is going. Not only am I telling about India, my seer is in the whole world. Where is the dharma? Where is the spiritualities? Where is the temples? Where is the church? And how they are taking out from the church, from the temples, from the mosque, etc.? That’s why all things happening in the world. Therefore, Guru Kṛpā Hi Kevalaṁ Śiṣya Ke Ānanda. Maṅgalam. Guru kṛpā hi kevalam. Such a guru who can give, and we can leave. So, jīva, jīva jo hai, he doesn’t want the body. The soul is in our body, and the soul is not happy, but our body doesn’t want to let go. When we are suffering, the soul is suffering in the body. And the day when the soul is gone, one has died. It means that light has gone. And how one light comes in the outside of this space, all becomes one. It is said that sometimes the soul is running so quickly from the body, like when a star falls in the night, and so the soul is going so quickly out that this body doesn’t matter, whether in wood or not wood. He said, "I’m... Now, I’m outside." There are many things. So, those who said that this ātmā, that soul, should live in the body easy, healthy, peaceful, love-full, everything. But many people are suffering with their anger and so many thoughts and many, many things. Therefore, we say in our ātmā, let our ātmā wherever comes and goes, it will come. It is like it drops from the ocean. The water goes, the wave goes up, and only one little drop, but that little drop is the whole ocean. When it falls in the ocean, then you don’t know where is that oneness. One in all and all in one. So, please, this is the day, and many people are very sad, very suffering. Many fathers die. The children are very unhappy. The wife is unhappy. My wife has died. The husband is very unhappy. The children, it is so everything now. It is so in this one and a half year or the two years, people are suffering, and it is like that. If we can think very nice, positively, and towards God, sit down, don’t cry, don’t be... we know what is happening, but let’s come to the in supreme consciousness inside, that’s it. So now we have one of our very young souls—soul is not young—and quite, children are very good, so they are singing today. What will you sing? We are, and we don’t know where we are, who we are, and this is many things we cannot understand. Where is it? Everyone will see this and that and that, but when the body goes out, then nothing is there. Oṁ Śānti.
