We should unite with the Supreme

We are all like a drop of water seeking to merge with the ocean. Life is a process of growth in time, from childhood onward, yet our individual journeys are temporary. We desire to achieve the goal of oneness with the cosmic reality, to end the cycle of return. This longing is like a single drop wishing to join the vast ocean; upon merging, the separate self is gone. Our familial and social attachments are not permanent, as each soul must ultimately walk its own path toward that dissolution into the One, the ātmā.

"One drop is just in the palm of our heart, and the ocean is so big. And now, this drop wants to say, 'I want to go to my water, my ocean.'"

"Your father and your mother and your brother and your friends... are not forever. Again, we have to walk on our path."

Oṁ Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī, Dev Puruṣa Mahādeva Kī, Mādhavānandjī Bhagavān Kī, Alak Puruṣa Mahādeva Kī. All my dear sisters and brothers, all yoga lives around the world, always beautiful things are coming, always coming good and good and good. Why not come good and good? Yet we are getting older and older. Yes, that’s it. Day by day we are rising up—we are not old—we are getting more and more, and these others are still behind and behind, but they are coming day by day. They are also coming further, but you cannot take over. We cannot get over. Why? How? Your father was, let’s say, 20, 35 years, and his mother also, something like that, and they gave the baby, the child, and that child begins from there. So, it doesn’t matter how far the child will run, still, we will… how far? 35 years, and we cannot come there together. And so, is that? You have a nice day, a beautiful day, day by day happiness. And when you are, you think, “Now I’m little,” and the child is crying, and then a little bit, and wants to have toys and this, and then wants to play, and then, “I want to do this,” and then, “I want…” To go not to school, they are playing, but they are growing slowly, slowly coming. And so is the time for all of us. It doesn’t matter how long or short, but this time is going, growing and growing. We would like to know, and we want to do that. We… will come to you if you call the God or Brahman, or whatever it is. We want to come into the purities, very clean. It is happiness, love, joy also in life, and be that. I am achieved my goal, and which goal? That I want to become one with. Cosmic, and then I will be again, again, one more. Like what? A one drop of the water, you have water in, and they’ll be over the ocean? No, no… We are in a boat on that ocean, and we have one drop in our hand. We are looking at our water; one drop is just in the palm of our heart, and the ocean is so big. And now, this drop wants to say, “I want to go to my water, my ocean. Will you become one? Be not. Say you want, then you are not anymore. I am here myself.” You want to be myself, or you want to know the ocean? Are you sure? Said yes. The drop is nice till it will fall into the water of the ocean, and then you don’t know who is who. And so is that? We are all like one drop. We know we are on this earth. We are individual, our body, everything. What it is, but we want to become one with that, so that I will not come again back. Therefore, it is said that, “Give me the power, Guru Dev, or any Dev, that will come to you.” And then you want to become the One. So we are not always crying and running, and this, everything—this is mine, and that, and this and that—it one day will go. It’s finished, and you don’t know. You don’t know where you will go. Your mother gave you the birth, your father, and they give you a lot of love, respect, and give the knowledge, and clothes, and school, and etc. But what is there after? What will you go there? Then what? And I don’t know myself, myself, my dear. I’m trying, I’m trying. But still, I’m an individual, and similarly, you are also like that. And I will tell you, I will tell someone, “Go towards the east,” or “Go there, tell there, go there.” Will you achieve that? I don’t know, but you know that you want to go, your heart. Your thoughts, your feelings, what you will be, happy you think so be. And you have five brothers or sisters and brothers, all you are sitting like a one bird sitting on the roof of the house, and this four or five birds, we don’t know they. Will fly in their one bird flight, that side and one other side and one that side. We cannot say birds go that side. If you are in the case, then of course you take him this side or that side. Pigeon, pigeon is sitting there on your house. And you think, “I will be a winner in football.” I said, “Yes, it will be, but kabūtā, he will fly. We don’t know which direction.” So, my dear, you are—we are—this bird. We are like seeing something, and that is very, very… you don’t know. Your father and your mother and your brother and your friends and your husbands or your wife, etc., are not forever. Again, we have to walk on our path. All children of the parents, they will not go on the same path. We will go there, and there, and there. But one day, it will be that drop of the water drops in the ocean. Then it becomes the one. Therefore, who are you to talk to somebody that, “Hey, go over there.” What will you do there? Hello. Okay, it is our life, but this is temporary. Temporary, temporary. So let’s practice. Let’s have myself and yourself too, so know where I will go. That’s it. Even what if, what we call God physically, he will also have to go, or the Holy Mother. What we—every mother is a holy mother, but we… don’t know where it will be, and when there is a male or a female, they will melt into the one as the ātmā. That’s all, the ātmā.
