Co-existence

One day I met a girl who used to be in 3HO and in the Dharmaa leadertype. I saw her and said, Who are you? Her whole identity has changed.
Her life has been changed. She was in pain and she was sorry. All I said was,
There is nothing to be sorry. Rebound yourself! She said, Master, it is
very difficult! Everything is very difficult. Still, give yourself a chance.
Break through! If you realize your mistake and come home, you have not
lost. And I laughed and said, Even the police wait twenty-four hours
before writing a report!
That is the life. And that is the power of our memories. If we have good
memories, let it be that during the day we have a memory of our sadhana,
and during the night we have a memory of our prayer. The next morning we
have the memory of another beautiful day.
Our life can be difficult. Let us remember, and remember that we are in the
state of heavens and shining and beautiful, and our every part of our being
is cleansed.
Guided Meditation with the
Master, Remember the Saint
Within
Part I - 19 Minutes
Sit straight in a cross-legged position.
Eyes are closed.
Our ego has left us and we are
enduring in a state of prayer.
We are smiling, we are in a
meditative mood, our eyes are
closed and we are looking within
ourselves. Deep down we find
our self. Our nature and culture is
powerful, prayerful, grateful. Let
us meditate on these lines.
Humble our self before our
Creator, feel nearness and union and allow our self a gift of a deep breath.
And let us concentrate on this breath. Let us let it go and take it back in,
deep in our being, so it can touch us. Let us call upon our self, body, mind
and spirit. Let us surrender our self to Almighty and let us be grateful for the
guidance.
10
Let us transform ourselves to unique human beings, now, right this minute.
Let us know that we know. Let us see that we see, in our inner being. And
not use our open eyes with insecurity, but our inner eye with deep security.
Let us keep breathing deep and deep, and, leaving the deep breath deeply,
let us create a cycle. Unending cycle.
Let there be union between us and infinity. Let, for a moment, forget who
we are, what we are doing, except we may ride on the wave of our own
breath.
Let us learn to guide ourselves against all odds and evens, from a neutral
point of view. I am, I am. Let us charge ourselves with the surcharge of
energy, flood ourselves with purity, pursue our self in beauty. Let us touch
the Light.
Let us give our self this day and maintain our self higher than our self as we
know.
Let us understand in our depth of mind that we were born in the womb
through the sperms of our parents, to add beauty and bounty to our life of
karma. And now we have debt to
pay and we have to be positive,
affirmative, serviceful, compassionate, kind. And we must reach out.
We know many things in our life,
but this moment we want to know
our life, our life within our self, so
that we can sit as yogis, meditate
and get going, better than anybody.
How young we are, we are. We
have a long life to live. Breathe in
deeply, continuously, and breathe
out. Dont let the control of the
breath go away.
Imagine a saint, and be a saint. Let
us achieve something. Let us reach
somewhere.
Let us feel in us.This power of meditation, where you guide yourself, is the
most affirmative, positive and fruitful. Ride the waves of the breath and feel
the nearness of the God who gave you the Breath of Life. Reach out, inside
of you, all what is there.
In your heart center, may the Guru sit and preside over you as Deity. May
you understand shuniya, and start from zero and try to reach Infinity.
Breathe powerfully and forcefully. Inhale and exhale. Forget all memory of
11
the past and only remember you have a saint within, being provided by the
Guru and guided by God.
In this affirmation you can totally cleanse yourself and purify yourself. Be proud
of the fact that once in awhile you get a chance to do it. It is not this evening
and this day only. It should be your life, to recharge yourself.
Part II - 3 Minutes
Now consciously do Breath of Fire.
Move the navel so that all of the
organsliver, kidney, pancreas
may be recharged. Lungs will give
double function. You will get the
right effect. Do it sincerely.
Remember Breath of Life has a lot
of power.
To End
Inhale deeply, hold the precious
breath and pray for peace and for all
those who gave their life,
peacefully. Exhale. Inhale deeply.
Pray for peace of yourself and
thank God we are together under
one roof in love, tranquility and
peace. Breathe out. Breathe in
deeply and do the prayer that God give your shoulders the power to carry
the weight of karma, dharma and this universe. Let it go.
May the long-time sun shine upon you, all love
surround you, and the pure light within you guide
your way on.
May you be blessed by the virtue of the Lord and may God within you rule
your destiny and bring you peace and tranquility. May you make it a daily
prayer and ask yourself for positive blessings, and share those blessings for
all the world around. Sat Nam.

Without meditation there is nothing. The mental life inside is very clear,
calm, quiet, peaceful. It has nothing to do with anything. Manners,
behaviors and third eye sight are all mental. Mental is 70% and physical is
30%. Depending on how your third eye works, in the end you will find that
all sexual activities, friendships and consolation were nothing. They did not
serve you. They only consumed your time in a particular space.
It is not easy to live a Masters will.
But if you do not know how to live
to a Masters will, you cannot live in
Gods Will. What is a student who
cannot sacrifice? First there must
be commitment, then character,
dignity, divinity, grace, power to
sacrifice, and then happiness. There
are seven steps.
Do you think that what belongs to
you is yours? It is not true now, it
was never true and it is not going to
be true. The body that belongs to
you is not yours. When my doctor
was going to cut my toe I said, Cut
it. It doesnt matter. It is our family
tradition that the feet are touched.
Politeness prevailed. I thought of
everybody as family, so they touch my feet. So, feet lost the toe! My job is
not to be a great man. My job is just to teach greatness. I did not come here
to become a guru.
Somebody came today and said, Do you know my son cut his hair? I said,
You know, God gave him a destiny to become a leader, and now he is
nothing. Because it is very difficult to go on top of the mountain and very
easy to fall. Same body! But there is a mind in it. How you want to apply
that mind is up to you.
Sikhs are going to be tested. Your turban and your white clothes are going

We are not questioning our achievement. We are questioning our action, our
karma. The moment karma is done in the name of dharma, elevation takes

I have called you today, as these nine days are very auspicious. The moon is
crossing beneath the sun. It is a time to sharpen the mind. Why not to do it
the way of the century-old custom? It is not very difficult, and you will be
very comfortable in the end.
Guided Meditation with the
Master, To Enter the Fall and
the Winter Season
31 Minutes
Sit straight in a cross-legged position.
Bring your hands in front of your
heart center, with the fingertips
touching and the palms spread.Try to
see how the energy moves. You will
feel the reality of the body.
Inhale deep and ride on the breath,
in and out, long and deep, as
honestly as you can. Take your
body, the inner being in this body,
simply by meditative force. Do not
try to understand that you cannot
do it. It is not difficult, but it is a
great experience. Pull your mental
body out of your body. Just take it out. Just simply coordinate between
you, your environments, your activities and your own preciousness.
Your mental body, when you command it, is very pure, very clear. And it is
yours. It is not related to the physical activities, although the mental body is
with you. Things are corrupt only when you are in your physical body and
your mental body is not combined. So, do coordinateyou have that
powerand take this out, out of your being. Time is with us, the wind is
behind us, and virtuous we are.
It is a very special Saturday. Therefore the Saturn energy in the penetrating
form of its being is passing through, irrespective of any force or any effort.
That is why I chose it. And we have a small time window only, that is why
17
I am very quick and not saying anything. So this breath has to be very long
and down to the navel point. Deep in, and hold, and completely out.
The power we have is our virtue. Our virtue is extremely powerful. Our
value is humongous. Value, we give! Virtues, we experience! Our values are
our values. The majority of the time we forget that we have values. But
most of the time, if we practice these things, we remember our values. And
once a person follows ones own values, that is all divinity is all about.
So, keep the breath long, deep and evaluate yourself. Give yourself values. The
first value you can give yourself is, I am virtuous. I am beautiful. God created
me in the best form. Thank God has given me health, happiness and wealth.
You know, you are a wonder of the
world. Recognize the fact. Concentrate on these things.
Now comes the secret of the
Shintoism, the Japanese faith. See
that you are just a blade of grass,
beautiful, green, and you are
covering your values. Start
covering your values as a blade of
grass, with an extreme sense of
self-cooperation. The tips of the
fingers must meet so that
circulation can coordinate the two
parts of the body, and your valuable
and virtuous and wonderful body is
right, at this time, under manual
control, and your mental body is
taken out.
The mental body is looking at your physical body as you are sitting. Practice
this split. Once you can separate your mental body and practice to separate
it, as we keep on doing, there will be no problemsat the time of death you
can split your mental body and be free of karma. You will never have a
rebirth again. That is guaranteed.
This is your reality. You have a physical body, you have a mental body and
you have a body of bliss. When you separate that, in-between you watch
over this body. See how beautiful it is?
18
Your breath has to be very long and deep because your spiritual body, your
physical body, your mental body and your being are separate. You have never
been taught this. You have never been told. You think you are one bundle.
Feel the super and extreme contentment. That will bring you prosperity. Ride
on your breath and just feel supremely contented. That will give you the
prosperity that you are looking for. Its no use living rich, its no use living poor,
its no use being great if you cannot demonstrate to yourself that you can
separate your bodies as you can separate that strength. And you can not
only visualize, but experience it. In this experience, you are the Supreme.
Every religion goes round and round and round and talks one thing only
self-consciousness. Self-consciousness is just a phrase to us. Let us consider
what self-consciousness is: When we know we have a spiritual body, we
have a mental body, we have a physical body.
Your mental body and your radiant
bodyhave you ever put them
together? They are yours. Nobody
will know it! But you will be
charged and recharged with the
energy. What is more beautiful on
this Earth than you? What is more
pure and shining than you? What is
more cool and calm and quiet than
you? In the Eyes of God you are
everything.
Take a long deep breath and ride on
it. Fortune and misfortune are two
wavelengths. By yourself it pulsesyou can put your body on any
wavelength you need. In common
mans language we call it repetition.
The bodys membranes, the bodys
re-adjustment and the bodys main nervous system are going to adjust now.
You are within that time. Please breathe long and deep and cure yourself
forever. Heal! Take long deep breaths and ride on it, and keep your mental
body away. Only look at where the tips of the fingers meet.
Circulate your breath. Keep the mental body separate. Concentrate on the
physical body, in the realm of personal consciousness. You are beautiful, you
are bountiful, you are blissful, you are virtuous, you have vigor, self-control.
Apply all that!
The central nerve in the navel point can be touched by a deep breath.
A split mental body can give you a vast area of coexistence. Your all
five channels and tattvas are totally balanced at the moment. Your arc
line is clear.
19
Can you believe the little bit that we have done? We suffer here, there,
everywhere. What for? America needs peace, it needs love. It needs tons of
smiles. It needs uswe the people.
Our window is up at 12 oclock. The rotation of the planet will change the
energy and it will change everything. Now is the time. Breathe long and
deep. Get it when it is available. Bring in you the coziness. Colorful
coziness. Split the light inside. Bring in the special Breath of Life. If you
know how to concentrate, meditate and breathe, this is the time.
To End
Breathe in deep and hold it tight. Breathe out. Breathe in deep and hold it
tight. Breathe out. Breathe in all the virtues of God and breathe out peace
for the world. Breathe in long and
deep, hold it, love it, feel it, and then
let it go. Now put all the pressure
on the fingertips. Inhale deep. Put a
tight grip on the fingers. Let it go.
Inhale deep. Make the fingers very
tight. Feel the purpose of life and
prosperity. Let it go. Inhale deeply,
exhale and relax.
This time may come in this month
next year. My idea was just to give
you a re-charge. And this is a very
special time. The whole Eastern
World is going to celebrate the
Festival of Light. During the ten
days of this festival people will do
nothing but breathe, meditate, eat
the right food and show gratitude
to young girls, the mothers of
innocence. When you see a young
girl, you see the creative purity. Purity has many forms, but creative purity
is only the young girl. The source of humanity is that young girl, who will
grow and one day have a family and children.
20
America is young all the time and does not care. There is no rule, no virtue,
because we are not a very meditative nation. But now we are learning a
lesson. We got chili in our nose. Now we know we have to change. One day
you will come out and realize how virtuous you are, how valuable you are,
how this precious time is given to you so you can act on yourself so that you
can turn from human into an angel. You are going to get kicked. That is a fact
you cannot avoid. Every moment you have to concentrate on your purity.

Co-Existence
October 27th, 2001
For the last 3,000 years we have been taught nothing. We have been taught
that there is a God somewhere up there, and that we must make an effort,
a journey, to reach there. But it is very simple: If you cannot see God in all,
you cannot see God at all. If the Muslim God is better than the Hindu God,
if the Christian God is better than the Jewish God, then there is neither a
Muslim nor a Hindu, nor a Christian, nor a Jewish God. There is nothing.
God is an interwoven energy, a
vibratory impulse in the universe
that creates the universe, contracts the universe and expands
the universe. The whole universe!
And the universe is as infinite as
you can imagine.
Guru Nanak is right to say that we
can concentrate in the Sadh
Sangat, in a group. Beauty lies in
concentration. Individuality is very
weak. Individuality is to project
individualism: Saying, I want to
project myself, never matters at all.
As our universe contracts and
expands, so do individuals.
Whatever is will not be.
If you feel So and so is bothering me, so and so is not bothering you.
Maybe in a previous life, 300 years ago, you did something to that person.
The soul is in a cycle, a circle. A circle is an orbit. An orbit is a zero. Zero is
an expansion. Expansion is inter-related. Inter-relatedness is existence.
Existence is dimension. That is how it is.
But we have made a religion out of everything to make people stick around.
On the other hand, discipline forces you to be purified. Concessions can be
given, but real discipline ties you in a box and does not give you a place to
move.
23
Religion was to help you find your way to a certain street. Religion was not
to kill each other and do the things people do today. Understand that your
beingness was to be connected to the Supreme Being all the time. You may
try to lie, but ask the question, If someone lied to you, would you like it?
If not, the other person would not like it either. So, how can a human lie to
God when another person is a manifestation of God?
Guided Meditation with the
Master, Pure Being
Part I 11 minutes
Sit straight in a cross-legged position.
Hold the hands in front of the heart
center, with the fingertips touching
and the palms spread. The fingers are
pointing away from the body and the
thumbs are pointing up.
Close your eyes and try to go
within. In the self of circumstances,
the circumstances are in the self.
Multiply them. All that is happening
in the universe, and all that will
happen in the universe, and all that
has happened in the universe, is my
universe. Bring it into your universe
in universal coordination. The
universe is not separate from you and you are not separate from the
universe.
Bring the force in. Use your extreme power. You are powerful, and you are
pure, and you are infinite, and you are, because there is a part God in you,
and that part God is in everything. The totality of it has to be understood
right now. In this meditation you bring in that powerful self-controlled,
meditative energy, in your being, within your being.
You are not a woman, you are not a manthat is structure. Inside is that
pure being. If you understand that pure being, then you will not be
passionate--not passionate, wrong and small. Your strength will be manyfold! And from many-fold, make it to a mega-foldI am the Ultimate!
24
That one line, God and me, me and God are one, has to be understood,
with acknowledgment. Im not a doctor so and so. Im not an attorney so
and so. Im not a person so and so. Im not a genius so and so. All these
professional attachments you have are not to be there. And I am not a male
and I am not a female. I am just that living, vibrating spirit. And that living,
vibrating spirit is totally interlocked. And when you take that attitude, then
you understand, Give me that identity and honor, or give me death. Then
life does not mean anything. Life is a mirage if it is not yours and you do not
control it.
Lets be virtuous. I am virtuous, we are virtuous. Everything is virtue. Every
virtue comes from God and every virtue is God. And every living thing is
Gods virtue, and everything grows within the virtue, and everything
expands within the virtue. And the more the virtue expands, the more
impressive connections and relationships we have. Every relationship is a
tie-in. And that is how we understand each others virtues. All there is, is
virtue. All there will be is virtue.
Ultimately, vice will eat you up. Its a cancer of the infinite universe. Hidingly
you can do it, cleverly you can do it, purely you can do it--it is your science.
It has no recording in the Divine because God is virtuous. And God, like the
sun, spreads rays, the light. God, which is the impulsive power of selfcontained expansion and contraction and has its own frequency, has a
rhythm to which you have to tune in.
The only thing you tune-in to, the
automaticthe automatic in you,
is the Breath of Life. And with the
Breath of Life you have a
heartbeat, and with a heartbeat
you have a pulse. So it all comes to
the pulse, if you really want to
know. And if you disturb
somebodys pulse and make it run
fast, you are actually doing a bad
job. Life is calmness, quietness,
peace. Shanti, tranquility. Anything and everything you do is to be
in tranquility. In that tranquility you
will exist in a biorhythm.
You exist a co-existence. So long
you want to exist and you exist,
you are creating a very dragging
situation. You have to co-exist! Your power is to co-exist. Our co-existing is
virtue. Our self-existing is non-existing. In self-existing we lose all the flow
of the universal energy.
What is there to learn? What are we doing? What books are we reading?
And what are we thinking? It is a simple thing. It is the simplest of all things.
If you learn co-existence, you will learn with your own self. You will live
with your own self. Within the constant self and beauty you can create the
25
most powerful, the cleanest karma of all. And that is your dharma. All what
there is and all what there will be are co-existing and coordinating and coconnected with you. And you have to have that sensitivity.
Part II Meditation on Sound - 31 minutes
Same posture. Powerfully move the navel as you sing the Ik Acharee Chand
shabd (Ajai Alai by Gurushabd Singh and Nirinjan Kaur. Jaap Sahib, lines 189-196)
Ajai. Alai. Abhai. Abai.
Abhoo. Ajoo. Anaas. Akaas.
Aganj. Abhanj. Alakh. Abhakh.
Akaal. Diaal. Alaykh. Abhaykh.
Anaam. Akaam. Agaah. Adhaah.
Anaatay. Pramaathay. Ajonee. Amonee.
Na Raagay. Na Rangay. Na Roopay. Na Raykhay.
Akarmang. Abharmang. Aganjay. Alaykhay.
This shabd gives you many words
one word at a timethey are all
faculties of God. Your whole being
will coordinate the sound, the
system, the self, the breath, the life,
the prana. What you personify is
what you become.
Touch the navel. Move it! Union
must take place! Give a few
minutes to living. When you move
the navel the sound will change.
Change the inner self so that the
outer world will change. What an
easy way to be healthy! Change the
inner self, bring it to zero thought,
move the navel!
To End
Inhale long and deeply, exhale and relax.
26
For years and years, for eons, we have taught each other with love and
affection, yet we have never taught that we must co-exist. We can never
exist personally. It is not our faculty! When you start existing for yourself,
you are causing pain to your self, to your being and to your inner being, to
your everything. You are co-coordinating, inter-dependent and co-existent.
For the last 5,000 years you have
been taught how to be in pain. You
do not know pleasure. Pleasure is in
co-existence. Pain is self-existing. It
is so simple. When you intelligently,
intellectually, socially and personally
understand that you are doing
something where your coexistence is in danger, correct it,
and everything around you will
correct.
Make yourself a center of your
total energy and beauty. You will
never be a slave. You will be selfcontained,
self-content
and
continuous. Do not regret living.
Do it today!
