TABLE OF CONTENTS
You have a life to live. The power to live life is in your prayer, positively.
Whenever difficulties come and you fail or fall apart, you can relate to
prayer. The law of the Infinite God within you is a very positive sign. It is
something that you are. But there are memories—very positive and very
painful memories. 9
One day I met a girl who used to be in 3HO and in the Dharma—a leader-
type. 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.
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
10 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, compassion-
ate, kind. And we must reach out.
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
organs—liver, 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 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.”

Let Your Purity Guide You
October 16th, 2001
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.
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 13
to be questioned. You are going to be questioned. You were born under
that destiny where you are to be questioned and survive. That is the way
you are.
When I left India and came to America I always used to dream that I would
have a house on the mountain. The house in Anandpur Sahib satisfies that
dream. It is on top of a mountain and, the most beautiful thing, when you
open the main door, what you see is… so beautiful! You bow right there.
However corrupt you are or how pure you are does not matter. If you want
to experience the psyche, that is psyche! You see the living experience of
psyche face to face when you open that door. It is not something you or I
can create.
We are not questioning our achievement. We are questioning our action, our
14 karma. The moment karma is done in the name of dharma, elevation takes
place. It’s automatic! Just close your
eyes and be to be to be.
You are the consciousness of it. You are the center of it. Let your grace
shine. Let your purity guide you. Let your self rebuild yourself. These are
just 11 minutes you have to deal with. It is not very long. Mentally remind
yourself, ‘Healthy I am, Happy I am, Holy I am.’ Purify your inner being into
the guidance of the stars and the heavens.
Friends and foes, it all goes. This moment is very pure because it is the
applied combined purity of each one of us. Our thirty trillion cells per person
are vibrating or making efforts to vibrate. At this moment we are
comparatively kind and compassionate to our self. Try to see our higher self.
Feel the living breath.
It is not that you don’t breathe the whole day--you can’t live without that!
But you don’t, at that time, feel. You don’t concentrate. You have done 11
minutes without any notice of time. Time passes in such things very fast.”
Part II - 3 Minutes
“Now, to make yourself powerful, give the Breath of Fire to yourself. From
the navel, heal yourself! Breath of Fire is a healing breath. It burns out the
disease. Allow yourself hear your own breath just for 3 minutes. Empower
yourself!” 15
Part III - Meridian Enrichment
Kriya - 3 Minutes
Bring your hands in front of your
heart center, with the fingertips
touching and the palms spread.
Inhale deeply and hold the breath in
as you move the fingers in circles
forward, down, back and up, 5 times
(only fingers move, not the arms).
Exhale..
To End
Inhale deeply, hold, and expand your
chest cavity—shoulders, chest and
ribs. Exhale. Then inhale deeply and
exhale completely. Then inhale
deeply, hold, and with full strength
expand every fiber of your body.
Exhale and relax.
Whenever you feel handicapped or weak in your life, do not run to
coffee. Just do the Meridian Enrichment Kriya for 3 minutes. You will
enrich all your meridians, or pulses, which is what some doctors try to
do. You will be A-1 strong.

Body, Mind and Spirit
October 20th, 2001
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.
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 coordinate—you have that
power—and take this out, out of your being. Time is with us, the wind is
behind us, and virtuous we are.
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 one’s 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.
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 problems—at 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?
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
18 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. It’s no use living rich, it’s no use living poor,
it’s 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.
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 us—we the people.
Our window is up at 12 o’clock. 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.”
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.

I asked a Japanese master, “What is
Shinto?” He replied, “It is a
personal religion.” “Can I know
about it?” He picked a blade of
grass and said, “What do you see?”
I was a little cleverer than he
thought and I said, “God.” He
asked, “Where is it?” I said, “In this
blade.” “You know Shinto. That’s it!
Thank you.”
What is the most beautiful virtue man has? Matching intelligence! If you
can match intelligence with another person you are the most valuable,
virtuous and wonderful person. Love is when you temporarily get along
with a person. Virtue is in matching intelligence—not values, where
everybody differs. Match intelligence!

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.
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?
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 man—that 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 many-
fold! And from many-fold, make it to a mega-fold—‘I am the Ultimate!’
That one line, ‘God and me, me and God are one,’ has to be understood,
with acknowledgment. I’m not a doctor so and so. I’m not an attorney so
and so. I’m not a person so and so. I’m 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,
24 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.
Ultimately, vice will eat you up. It’s 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 self-
contained expansion and contraction and has its own frequency, has a
rhythm to which you have to tune in.
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 co-
connected with you. And you have to have that sensitivity.”
To End
Inhale long and deeply, exhale and relax.
