SIX TIME LINES ASTRAL AND EARTH

Where all six times lines meet , and all astral planes, all many different dimensions beings , they can come to earth. Whenever they are trying to escape from,  big problem there.

And  it is my belief – because I’ve been observing this things for more then,  let say nearly thirty  years – that a big war is happening there, and it is almost ending, now climax is coming.

And, whatever we see on the Earth – is a reproduction of these astral beings fighting with each other’s for supremacy.  Earth like a junction, where all six time lines and every different dimension,  wherever  anybody is living, they can come to Earth, escape,  and some power in Earth is there.

Whoever will control the Earth will become mighty  powerful.

So this is main thing which keeps on happening, and we see in epics also,  Indian epics, Ramayana, Mahabharata,  all these things indicates for this. Everybody is out to take control of the Earth!

 

UPADESH NONATTACHMENT

As we where discussing,  many many people, as mister Mazumdar said – that attachment is not good, for a spiritual growth and for so many things, and this and this, and that and that.

My observation is – that attachment gives You a strength, and  it maybe the basis of your progress finally!

And I’ve given an example of the kite flying ,  if it will  remain attracted  with a cord – it will go very high  and very high and very high , the moment it is not attached with a cord – kite finally comes down to the ground !

Whomsoever , what ever it maybe – a person, or object  you are attracted to – that attachment will become the root cause for caring . If you’re caring for someone, that means you are attracted with someone.  And without caring I don’t think humanity will survive anywhere.

So I will say – remain attached !  Those wise ancient people when they were saying it – they simply meant grow up,  more mature.

Don’t remain attached with your toys , there are bigger things and larger things waiting for you in light.

So I take this Upadesh of non attachment in this life. You also think on that!

Thank You!

SIN AND VIRTUOUS

You can do something virtuous, which is considered as the holiest of holy!

When you  have learn  everything about sins,  how many types of sins are there, what is sin what is saint,  what can be sin – than  what is left  , will be virtuous!

And you will be very wise!

ALWAYS BE A STUDENT

If you are going to teach anything to anyone,

And you supposed to be a teacher, or representing some lineage, whatever art you’re going to teach …

My suggestion is – you must always remain a student , keep learning ,

Only then you will be able to teach something very good !

This is small experience of Shailendra Sharma in this lifetime !

ALCHEMICAL HISTORY

I’ll tell you one very old story.

There was a sadhu living: he was able to make gold, alchemical gold. He could convert copper into gold.

Some followers – greedy people – they were after him; after years of serving he gave the formula to that person.

He made it, done all things successfully; but when he melted the copper and put that substance to it – nothing happened.

He again went to sadhu: sadhu said – give it to me. When sadhu put that melted copper – it happened.

Then he said: see, it is not in your destiny to be able to make gold. I will give you extra vision and you will see.

So with his power he gave him some extra vision and when that disciple or that follower was giving that substance to melted copper – a hand will come and take it away.

It’s a true story.

That’s how Shiva ganas or very high spirits keep gold. Otherwise the balance of the things will be lost.

NEVER ACCEPT DEFEAT!

This is friendly suggestion to the young generation:

I will say – accept the good council from experienced people;

accept good things in life, learn out of it; but never ever accept one thing:

never accept defeat for whatever you have set out to achieve.

Never accept defeat!

But accept good counselling, share the experience, accept good things from elderly people, from your parents, listen to them; accept and respect them.

Never accept defeat.

DHYAN AND MEDITATION

Q: what is the real meditation?

Guruji: meditation is just sitting silently and thinking nice thoughts. The original word is “dhyana”, which is 7th achievement in yoga – which is very high achievement. Read its definition in my commentaries in Yoga Sutras. In my opinion, the word “ meditation” and “dhyana” are not synonyms. Dhyana is a very different thing; you can meditate on anything, but dhyana is an achievement, the special development of your mind. Samadhi is just next step after that.

Q: but how to control the thoughts? Because what we’re trying to control became even more strong?

Guruji: we’re not trying to control – we’re trying to develop it! In a friendly way; if you will start fighting with yourself – loss will be yours, nobody will win. The basic human nature is to dominate others: so we always discussing terms of controlling this thing. You need to understand the nature of it – and keep developing it: and the results will be very positive.

Q: what if we will observe our mind, how it works?

Guruji: you will become an observer – that’s it. If you will keep observing something it doesn’t mean that it is going to develop also. With proper yoga practice the development will come. If you will just keep observing Arnold Schwarzenegger your biceps will not look like him. You will have to work hard in the gym.

Q: if I will constantly think on work: will it be the meditation on work?

Guruji: as good as meditation: you’re concentrating on work. When you will experience real concentration? When you have discovered the real purpose of your life: then your whole life will be concentrated to fulfil that.

Q: could we say that the real purpose of the life must be equal for anyone: to open the mind and to develop the consciousness?

Guruji: no, it will always differ from person to person. Whatever – he will follow his purpose.

Q: will it be the real purpose of the life – for example to become an artist or to buy a house?

Guruji: for him – yes.

Your intellect will become extraordinarily special and then it will be called “ritambhara” : highly developed intellect is called ritambhara.

Pratyahara will take place: pratyahara means you realize that body is just an instrument of the brain; it is your mind or brain which is experiencing through the different instruments.

Then dharana will take place: dharana means your mind will become strong enough to take a very strong decision and follow that: that is the level of dharana. Not many people are strong enough to take the extraordinarily strong decision.

And when the decision has been taken – dhyana will follow. When dhyana will follow – next step is samadhi.

Q: what is the different between sankalpa and dhyana if it is the ability to take the strong decision?

Guruji: only after very great practice of pranayama – then the mind is capable of making a very strong decision.

So whatever you say – sankalpa or decision – they act in the same way. With the enough power, gained by very hard practice of pranayama the mind becomes powerful enough to take the strongest of the strong decision.

Q: but strongest of the strong decision – it is the great will power, no?

Guruji: of course: strong mind will have strong will power. Will power is nothing but controlled imagination.

Q: in some texts they describe the technics of observing the thoughts which are coming to your mind, what do You think on that?

Guruji: I’ve read that and I’ve heard it; many people have discussed that. But until unless you do something to develop your mind it will not developed simply by observation. You may learn something about the working of your mind – that’s it. But here we’re talking about hardcore development: making your subconscious conscious – that is real mark of development.

Q: we are observing with 2%?

Guruji: you’re observing less than 2%!

Q: so with the practice we will have access to the subconscious mind?

Guruji: only this practice will make your subconscious conscious.

Q: what is clairvoyance?

Guruji: just the ability of your mind

Q: is it connected with the ability to use your subconsciousness?

Guruji: no, it’s a different property.

Q: even if some people are really able to see some glimpses of the future – they are not diving into subconsciousness?

Guruji: they live in the fear of the future, always. They maybe connected with the some high power – most of the clairvoyant people are like that.

Q: so when we get the access to our subconsciousness we get the access to some wisdom, but …

Guruji: if suddenly you will get access to your subconscious – your body will burn out, you will not survive. That’s why yogi have recommended go into suspended animation: so no harm will come to your body when your subconscious will be awaken. Read my commentary on Hatha Yoga Pradipika.

FALSE EGO OR SELF CONFIDENCE 

Q: when the person is very much proud of something – anyway his ego will go very high so he becomes arrogant? And if the person is humble – his ego is always low?

Guruji: if he is not acting to be a humble person!

Many humble people have bigger ego  – they only act like that. It’s a religious thing: egoless person serving the Lord always.

It’s a different thing. Yogis start to study their own ego, make it very refined and kept it. And sometimes people cannot differentiate between self-confidence and ego.

Many so-called humble people take a self-confident person as an arrogant person – and they are wrong there: self-confidence is a very different thing.

You must have self-confidence. Here I will say: the more confidential things you will discover inside you  – the more self-confidence you will have.

Q: sometimes when I observe myself my ego sometimes saying that I’m different from another people…

Guruji: then it statements a fact: you’re different than others! So why not accept the fact?

Q: it doesn’t need to be suppressed?

Guruji: it needs to be studied! You need to know about it. And I’m sure – nobody will say this to you: everybody will say – get rid of it, suppress it.

You should know exact nature of your ego, whatever you have inside. That is real struggle. And then – discover your potential: every possibility which you’re carrying – you should develop it to the maximum: otherwise how you will discover your limits? There is no other way!

Q: when we will develop our consciousness and somehow discover our limit: is it real? Or it’s just our thought that it’s the limit – but it’s not the limit?

Guruji: you will know exactly. No doubt will remain. This is not a hypothetical thing: we’re talking about real discoveries.

And discussing with Shailendra Sharma will give you new ideas – so you can think on it and discover that wisdom inside you.

Q: but it’s more important to ask You directly than through translation?

Guruji: anyway! It’s a way of communication. You have just started to practice: as your consciousness will grow – your awareness will grow, more things come to your mind and you will need to discuss them.

Q: so any question can be asked?

Guruji: this is my way: I like one-to-one conversation. I’m not giving one side lecture. This communication is good for learning. Otherwise what is the use? You will never find a preacher doing this or any holy man doing this: one-sided dialogue – that’s it.

ANGER

Q: what happens with anger when we transform it into something positive?

Guruji: what happens with the coal when it turns into a diamond? So anger is like coal: if you will nurse it inside, keep it inside, you can observe the great pressure which it will create: it will turn into a diamond. It will become extraordinary potent force; you can use that force and achieve anything with that! Anger is a very great power: we just need to learn how to convert it. Like a coal becomes a diamond.

You learn to control your reactions: basic behaviour of society is reaction only. When you will study reactions – you will reach action, which started this reaction. Then you will become wise enough to do some action – so you will have desired reactions. So simple.

Q: so we must take a little break before reaction on somebody?

Guruji: you need to study that reaction. Because there will be some situation in life when you will need to react immediately, you cannot take break then. But you need to ponder on that after the thing has been done. Generally -you should not react.

Q: so the first task is to observe it and to understand it?

Guruji: yes

HONEST AND ANGER

Q: how to be really honest? If you will be honest every time – it’s nearly impossible?

Guruji: I think you remain honest with yourself – otherwise honesty is just a social behaviour.

Q: could we say that to be honest with yourself is also the result of the development of the consciousness?

Guruji: yes, because you start to understand yourself better.

Q: what exactly we must to do if the anger is coming? How to nurse it?

Guruji: keep it inside.

Q: and what to do with it inside?

Guruji: nothing – just keep it there. Suddenly you will never be able to control it so keep it inside. When some time will gone you will have the different perspective on it and transformation will begin. Local principle here is: if the person to whom you’re angry is weaker than you and there is no police problem – give him a beating. This is local thing; if he is stronger than you and police will be involved – smile and give him Namaste(smiling) remain safe!

WHAT TO DO WITH A FEAR?

Q: Guruji, maybe You can give us some advice how to behave with the fear?

Guruji: o, face it! Face your fears! That is the only way. If you will keep running from your fears they will become even more bigger – so face them and see what will happen.

Q: so we must face everything what make us afraid of?

Guruji: why not? You must face the cause of fear. And remain diplomatic also at the same time. It’s a complicated social behaviour.

BE ABLE TO USE YOUR BRAINS

We have the grassroots level story – I don’t know why I remember it now; how the person who follows your orders exactly – the outgoing result, what will happen.

There was a rich man, he had a servant, who was following his master’s orders to the tip. One time his young son started to cry – he wanted to make shit; so he told the servant – take him, he want to make shit. Because the order was for shit servant make him sit and said: you shit – but not urine should come, because the order was for shit. Master was ordered only for shit! He was threatening the child, and child began to cry; and he said: Master, he is not doing anything – but he is crying. Oh, break his head! – and the servant took the stick and broke his head. Following orders also requires that you must be intelligent enough. Having common sense is one thing, but being nonsense is nothing. I think it’s a very wise story. It’s very famous story in our villages.

You must have enough sense to catch the essence of the order. Otherwise the results will not be good. From another point of view this servant was trying to take revenge from that master for some grudge – which master was not aware of, so he just hang on to the words and did exactly what he was saying. That is another aspect of the story.

WHAT IS GOOD AND WHAT IS BAD

Q: what is actually the notions of good and bad? They were created by the society – or it exists some universal principles?

Guruji: I think there is an earthly law about what is good and bad. Society was created for commercial purposes, trade and commerce, so money is the essence of it; and most of the laws are: what you desire – only you should get. Other one should not get: that is the essence of every law.

Q: how good and bad is connected with sat and asat from Bhagavad Gita?

Guruji: what you don’t know – it’s asat, what you are aware of – is sat. and who is a wise man?

Q: who knows nothing?

Guruji: who is exactly aware of what he doesn’t know! He is a wise man. Idiot doesn’t know even what he doesn’t know.

Q: how we can decipher what is good and bad if it’s not sat and asat – it’s something else?

Guruji: the hungry man finally got bread after one week and you just take it from him forcibly – that is bad. I mean it’s very easy to see. Or some dog is just relaxing in the street and you just go and kick him for nothing – that is bad. You can just put your mind and you will find so many things.

Q: why it is wrong? Because of your feeling it is wrong?

Guruji: why unnecessarily you’re disturbing him and kicking him when he is not doing anything for you? That means your nature is violent, you like to torture others for fun – that is bad. Torturing others just for fun is bad. It may be emotional torture, psychological torture, physical torture – torture is a torture.

Q: could we connect good and bad with advayta principles, because advayta is saying that there is no good and there is no bad?

Guruji: there is always good and there is always bad. Every religion is based on that.

Q: so that principles of good and bad were not created by the society?

Guruji: by their nature. It’s a play of nature.

Q: we will be beyond the Good and Evil when we will be beyond the gunas?

Guruji: oh, much before that. Beyond the gunas you will be attaining moksha or nirvana. Good and bad is not on that high level.

Q: we can see the deities in different forms – from the most beautiful to the most awful and most frightening; so could we say that any human deeds – from the most beautiful to most awful – they all are like divine power is behind it?

Guruji: they are giving you life: how you’re using your life – it’s your problem. They just observing. Maybe gods have detailed studying of human nature.

Q: but we cannot say that some god was behind us when we have done something very beautiful?

Guruji: no, it’s your own mind. Maybe some blessings will be there.

THE LAW OF KARMA AND HAPPINESS

Q: previously I was trying not to use bad words – but this month they are coming very naturally

Guruji: see, and you’re much less frustrated! As we have discussed before: look at the Japanese: no bad words in Japanese – see how much suicides and hara-kiri.

Q: we discussed that for the development in yoga – and in life in general also – lagna, the 9th lord and the 4th lord must be very powerful; but what if the lagna and 9th lord are average?

Guruji: if lagna is average then the performance of life will be also average

Q: but if lagna and 9th are weak – but 4th is wonderful, what then? It will be like santosha for the person, he will be satisfied with everything he has?

Guruji: he will accept his life.

Q: but he will be happy with it?

Guruji: no, he will not be happy – he will just accept it.

All depends on previous karmas: if you will take effort to develop yourself – that effort is karma.

Q: so the law of karma is only true law – like the law of nature?

Guruji: it looks like it, I’ve been observing it for very long time – I think it applies.

KARMA AND MEMORY

Q: the question is: the spirit is carrying all the information about all the previous karmas which were done in previous incarnations; so all that karmas will be applied to the new body?

Guruji: their memory will remain – in your DNA, in your subconscious mind and your current nature will shape up with those memories

Q: is it possible to cultivate compassion to every living beings?

Guruji: I’ve just told you the story(smiling) – it will be like that. It will be like fighting for peace. Once we were travelling with my friend; and when we were coming back from the train there were some disputes between one very weak and one big man, looking like chief of the gang. That weak man was trying to say something – and that big man took his collar and put him up asking: why don’t you talk in a civilised manner?(smiling)

Q: all our past experiences and memories will be reflected on us and will affect our future?

Guruji: all your decisions depends on your memory and your memory retains all your past experiences. This understanding of what was good and what was bad comes with the past experiences and your exposure to the world. That memory will make you take decisions.

Q: so then karma is like the memory?

Guruji: karma depends on your memory and past experiences. Those who are family men – they love to remain in family surroundings.

Q: I agree – because I saw too much when persons divorced and marry again for the third, fourth and even fifth times – maybe they are habitual to live in family

Guruji: some psychologists made this statement: they gone through multiple divorces because they always make the same mistake by marriage.

Q: yes, even the wives are nearly the same but 20 years younger

Guruji: yes, nearly the same. Oh my god, I safely gone this part( smiling)

DUALITY AND NONDUALITY

Q: we heard that You have the very different explanation of advayta?

Guruji: you have read advayta?

Q: no, I’ve just interested about Your opinion about duality and non-duality and about the world: is it duality or non-duality?

Guruji: you’re in duality now. But you will achieve non-duality one day.

Q: so when the consciousness will be developed enough it will see everything like non-duality?

Guruji: no. it will begin to see things as they are. Duality is in your mind: conscious mind and subconscious mind – this is duality; when your subconscious will become conscious, all mind will be conscious – that will be the state of non-duality.

Q: mostly our mind is very habitual to compare everything; and when it will be the one – it will be no comparison, like duality?

Guruji: no, it is not the comparison of duality, it is the state, fact- scientists have discovered it. Maybe the ancient rishis and yogis were discussing this  – and people and philosophers took this in a very different angle. When there is no subconsciousness – only the consciousness, then it is the state of non-duality.

Q: can we say that we will perceive everything like…

Guruji: how we can imagine how the 100% awaken mind will see and perceive? Not possible now. Only young children believe the stork deliver them; but it was actually in the hospital the doctor delivered them.
