Speaker 2 (00:41):
Seventh day today,
and every day is a something
special message for it.
Like I mentioned, if we have aseven fear in our life, if we
(01:03):
can remove all fear from thelife, your life will be totally
different amazing.
But because of the fear wecannot do what we want to do.
Because fear is on the wayalways.
(01:26):
We don't accept the challengesbecause of fear.
Fear that I will be failed.
They will not start.
Fear, big blockage in your life.
(01:49):
Anything you want to be, oranybody you want to be, or what
you want to be in your life,fear is the biggest thing.
It blocks you a lot.
We are so afraid.
(02:12):
One person, he did lot of thePesya.
It is known that he went to theheaven.
He met God there.
The story tells it, and hecomplained to the God that what
kind of God are you?
Look, when there is no need ofrain, you pour so much rain,
(02:39):
flooded everywhere when we needyou.
Don't give it.
If you make me a God, I knowhow to control the world, the
whole universe.
He said, okay, I will make you.
For one year you do whateveryou want to do.
(02:59):
The story that he had allcontrol.
He made the rain when it isneeded and on time.
All spring, autumn, everythingon time.
(03:24):
And the harvest was amazing.
that year it was like a green,tall All everywhere was
blossoming, but when it was theharvest time to ripe, when they
(03:50):
start cutting the harvest,inside there was no seeds.
They look so beautiful,everything the fruits doesn't
have any sweetness in it.
He got confused that I didperfectly on right, because the
(04:17):
when time was for the rain, Idid rain.
When time was for the sun, Idid sunlight.
But why it is not?
People will starve them.
Everything was perfect.
What happened that God?
(04:41):
Answer to him that you dideverything perfect, but you
didn't give them a challenge.
No heavy winds, no hail storms.
So they can fight the harvest,the trees, their branches can be
(05:06):
broken, so they know how muchstrength they have their roots.
They will get stronger, but youdidn't give any challenges to
them.
So that's why we don't have tobe afraid of like struggle in
(05:27):
your life.
It can be many kind of struggle, but if we become afraid of
struggle, we are not going to goforward.
Everywhere is greenery,everywhere is easy.
Nothing charm in it.
It has to be struggle in yourlife.
(05:49):
If it is not a struggle,everything is easy.
It is not a joyful you want toenjoy.
Accept the struggle.
Struggle makes you stronger.
(06:10):
Don't be afraid of struggle.
This is the biggest fear wehave.
Oh, we will be failed, we willnot take the step forward.
Unless you take the forward thestep, you will not arrive.
You will not reach your goal.
There are people like that.
(06:33):
It is very old book andSanskrit written that there are
people who are very low-westkind of people.
They don't start any businessand any work because,
(06:53):
prarabhbhya tena, vegan bhyenneechay.
They said they don't start eventhat, that there will be lot of
troubles on the way, lot ofobstacles on the way.
They don't start it.
But there are other kind ofpeople who are the medium kind
(07:20):
of people.
Prarabhbhya vegan bhyen neechay, when they start it, somehow
they start it.
And when they start vegan bhyenneechay, the obstacle will come
on the way, no matter whatTrouble will.
They are around you.
Vegan bhyen neechay, vira mantimanti.
(07:40):
They also drop it because thereare lot of troubles and they
start it, they stop it Right.
But the best people on theearth that the struggle, the
trouble, difficulties, they arehit again and again and again
(08:07):
with it.
Prarabhbhya, when they startedit, they never stop it.
They are the best people.
So they face the trouble,accept it, accept the challenges
.
That is the way if you want tomake your journey forward.
(08:29):
That's what you need to learn.
I heard that the White Housethey wanted to paint it, remodel
it and the US President theyinvited the few contractors.
(08:56):
One contractor was from China,one was from Europe, one was
from Pakistan.
They asked what is yourestimate?
Chinese contractor was invitedfirst that my contract my
(09:21):
estimate will be 3 milliondollars.
Okay.
European contract my estimatewill be around 7 million dollars
.
Pakistani contract they said myestimate will be 10 million
(09:43):
dollars.
They invited separately.
Explain me why you are asking 3million, that 1 million for the
paint material, 1 million forthe labor and 1 million for my
(10:08):
labor.
Why we will make it.
That's okay, that's good.
Ask the European why you areasking 7 million, that 2 million
for the material and 3 millionsfor the labor and 2 millions I
(10:31):
will make.
Okay, perfect Pakistanicontract that.
Why you are asking 10 million?
That 4 million for you, 3million for me and 3 million I
(10:53):
will hire Chinese people.
He hired the Pakistanicontractor 10 million.
That's the way politics goes on.
When in politics people getinvolved and they make money,
(11:21):
because if somebody giving you 4million right, they will hire.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Chinese anywhere, but
I will hire Chinese but he got
hired.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
You never know what
it is, what the life is.
Life goes on and on and on.
No struggle, easy money.
They want to make it, butwithout struggle, I am telling
you it's not enjoyable money.
(11:57):
I guarantee you.
Parents give children lot ofmoney and they do it, they spend
it.
But when they begin to earntheir own money and they go
(12:18):
anywhere on the trip orrestaurant, they eat it and they
have to give their own money.
At that time really they enjoyit because they earn it with
their own effort, their ownlabor, their own difficulties,
(12:43):
lot of trouble.
They have to work hard.
By working hard, if you spendeven little bit, then it is
enjoyable.
Prayer is very important in ourlife.
So, seventh day, perusion,eight shows don't be afraid.
(13:04):
Whoever is afraid, he cannot goforward, cannot move forward.
I am also talking about themeditation.
Meditation continues.
(13:29):
There is many ways to meditate,but the biggest block is our, on
the path of the meditation ismind, and the mind is the
biggest storage.
And that storage has lot ofthings negative, positive
(13:52):
information, eyes not ending.
There is so much infinite,infinite.
That's why, till you empty thatstorage, you cannot get who you
(14:15):
are.
You will never going to knowwho you are, because you will
going to move into thatinformation.
Because storage is full.
It is like a computer too muchinformation, you cannot save
anything further.
What you have to do, if you wantto save something good stuff,
(14:38):
you have to empty it.
Then what you empty first?
Do you empty good information?
You will think, oh, this isuseless.
You begin to delete thoseinformation.
That's what people do.
That's what I suggest peoplethat first think about it, your
(15:01):
negative thoughts, think aboutit, what you don't need it.
Think about it, what is notvaluable for you.
So you begin to delete thosethings.
Anger do you like anger?
No, nobody likes anger.
Then work on that.
(15:22):
Do you like to be egoistic?
People will.
Sooner or later they will findout oh, is very egoistic.
Their friendship, theireverything will going to be
ruined.
People will not like it after awhile.
So work on that.
If you deceive everyone, thenwhen they find out they are in
(15:48):
trouble.
If you are too much greedy,nobody is going to like you.
So work on that.
This storage is so big storagethat you need to delete first or
work on first which is notuseful to you, which is giving
(16:09):
you more trouble.
But there are so many otherblockages.
There are at least 25 blockages.
It's always on your way, it iswritten in the scripture.
(16:33):
There are 25 blockages on yourway and that's why you cannot
really go deep into meditativestate.
(16:54):
You can go if those blockagesare not there.
First is mood trance.
Three kind of ignorance.
Three kind of ignorance areeverywhere.
You will see People will go,which is people will go.
(17:21):
Those kind of temple, those kindof churches.
They don't really teach thereal thing, like you go sometime
.
The church or temple tonguetwisters.
They speak in differentlanguage, right, and they,
(17:45):
people think somebody enter,somebody, spirit enter into
their body.
They are talking about it.
Hey, you need a little practiceso you can start speaking.
This is called ignorant.
They don't get trapped into it.
(18:08):
Many people, they think spiritenter into it.
Whatever they will say now, itwill be right, it will be useful
to them and people areattracted those kind of rituals.
But it is called the biggestignorance.
They say what they will do foryou.
They cannot remove yourobstacles, they cannot take
(18:32):
anything away from you and theycannot give you unless it is in
your luck.
So why to depend on them?
Right, but there are in theworld.
If you will go everywhere, itis something Lokmurta.
(18:57):
Second, that in this universethere is lot of ignorance going
on.
What we supposed to do, wedon't do it.
What we are supposed to do, wekeep doing it.
We know it that the more wedrink alcohol or too much
(19:19):
caffeine it is not good for yourheart and brain also, but we
still keep doing it.
We know that too much sugareating is not good for your
pancreas, but we still keepeating it.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
This is ignorance.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
We know it.
It will going to create trouble.
But the person who knows, anddoing it by knowing that is the
greatest ignorance.
If person doesn't know it, itis a different story.
They know it.
It is all information availableon the social media now you can
(20:01):
learn.
There is no now excuse that Ididn't get that kind of book to
read.
No, it is everywhere available,all the information.
So that is called Lokmurta.
Second, third is Samaymurta.
(20:22):
That we time.
We don't understand that we arewasting our time and once it is
wasted, it never, never comesback.
Jaja vachchai reeni, naisapadiniy attai, the night and day
which is all gone.
(20:42):
They are gone forever.
They don't come back.
Ahamma mukun manasya, aphalajanti rai, I know the person who
is on the wrong path, inignorance, moving everywhere,
that their day and night isuseless.
(21:04):
But jaja vachchai reeni, naisapadiniy attai, the day and night
which are gone is gone.
But dhammam mukun manasya, theperson who is putting effort
towards meditation, to knowyourself, to know himself, for
(21:25):
self, everything, know thyself.
Safla janti rai, you know theirday and night.
They are very successful.
Why?
Because they are trying to dosomething to know themselves.
And the biggest knowledge isthe biggest thing is if you put
(21:49):
all the efforts to know yourselfI am not saying not to put
efforts to earn money you needto survive in the society but
same time, if you forget thereal purpose of your life, then
all day and night, they will beuseless.
(22:12):
I mentioned sometime that therewas a king, yayati.
He has hundreds, not only oneor two.
The Yama, the death he stole.
He said hey, it is your time togo.
(22:33):
He started crying like a babyPlease don't take me.
Please don't take me.
I want to enjoy my.
I have a big kingdom but I wantto enjoy little more.
Can you give me little moretime?
He started begging to the death.
Say, hey, I cannot give youmore time.
(22:58):
But there is a one way.
If anyone of your children theygive your age to you.
He called all hundreds son outof 199.
They said no, we cannot giveour age.
We didn't enjoy anything.
(23:20):
At least you enjoyed a hundredyears.
But youngest son was very wise.
He said I want to give my wholeage to my father.
He said okay, that's fine.
(23:42):
He remained 100 more years.
And when he remained 100 yearshe did whatever he was supposed
to do.
But 100 years is not enough.
It spanned.
It went so quickly, yama, deathwas again.
(24:05):
He started crying again,begging again.
Another son was verycompassionate.
He gave his age to him.
He became alive thousands ofyears.
It is known Yayati.
But when the death came no onewas there to give him more time
(24:37):
than he has to go.
Yayati has to go, but he saidthousands of years for him.
It was not enough.
Why?
Because we think we will do.
We will finish our task.
We will finish our job.
We will enjoy this.
No, even 10,000s of years isnot enough.
(25:02):
In the heavenly planet there aremillions years' age according
to our counting here, but theyare too much into luxuries.
Too much into luxuries.
Every single moment is adifferent moment for them and
(25:27):
enjoyable, and they don't knowhow many million years pass so
quickly.
Because when everywhere isSukha, everywhere is no
suffering at all, no pain at all, the time passes so quickly.
(25:50):
It is saying that when a persongoes to heaven, that person is
born within 48 minutes.
There is no like a womb, likehuman, and they are bringing
(26:12):
that system on Earth right now.
They developed already.
They will not be born into thewomb anymore.
They will increase the samesystem like heavenly system,
heavenly planet.
They don't have to go throughthis painful being born to pass
(26:39):
ages so much difficult.
Now they are making theartificial womb and they will
put the one sperm and one eggand one cell will grow there.
And one cell is alreadytechnology.
They experimented it, butgovernment will not allow it and
(27:05):
it will be totally transparentlike a glass.
You can see it is growing.
Multiple cells begin to growand begin to get the shape and
you can see they will bechanging that how you want your
(27:28):
baby to look, what kind of eyesgreen or black or brown,
whatever or hair, what kind ofhair you want.
They have all settled alreadyand time will come maybe not in
our race in the near future,they are going to.
(27:52):
It will be in one hospital,will be maybe thousands
artificial womb and you can golook at it.
If you want to change it, theywill change it when it is born.
But the person in heavenlyplanet, they have a Avadhikna.
Avadhikna means they have alimited knowledge.
(28:15):
They can see it.
We can see.
Our eyes can see also millionsof miles, but heavenly being,
they can see even more and theyare attached to their old family
as soon as they are born.
They see where I am coming from.
(28:35):
Oh, my family.
They are in pain.
Let's go that I am in heaven.
It is beautiful there.
I will go and tell them.
The family where he is born orshe is born in heaven, say hey
(28:56):
what you will tell your familywhat heaven looks like, will
show you one movie at least.
Then you can go and tell okay,according to our earth, movies
maybe maximum two hours, max,three hours, not more than that.
(29:17):
He said two, three hours isfine After they begin to watch
the movie.
But heavenly movie is not two,three hours.
Their two, three hours are toolong.
Thousands year passes, onemovie is not finished yet and
(29:40):
they are so interesting youcannot move your eyes.
Because, heavenly people, theydon't eat.
Their body is not like our body.
They need only fragrance,that's it, and then they are
satisfied with it.
(30:00):
When movie is over, no, you cango to meet your family.
Now he is saying where myfamily is, thousands year passed
.
That's why no, heavenly beingcomes back.
And they want to come back, butthey get trapped into the
(30:21):
watching the one movie andthat's it.
After that their family is lost.
They don't know where they arenow to whom to tell?
So that's why they don't come.
So this time don't waste yourtime.
The good timing passes soquickly.
(30:44):
Bad timing is like hell.
It's even 12 hours to pass isvery difficult when everywhere,
everywhere, very much pain.
Somebody has a sickness is likesuffering too much.
(31:06):
Painful Body cannot move.
Very pain in the body and evenfew hours to.
But they have to go through oneday, two days, month, years.
Sometimes they don't die and itis pain doesn't go away, no
matter pain killer doesn't workon them.
(31:28):
Their karma is like that.
Sometimes antibiotic works,sometimes they don't work, so
pain doesn't go away.
Sometimes the time becomes likea long time.
Even one night becomes like aone year.
(31:49):
When everything is happy aroundit, years goes like a one night
.
So they don't waste your time.
That is the.
If people are wasting theirtime, that is the biggest
(32:09):
ignorant.
That is the.
These are the blockages in yourlife.
First one Second blockages ismadhashya astau.
Eight kind of madha.
Madha means ego, madha meansahankar, madha means abhimma.
(32:31):
It is eight kind of ego.
What is eight kind of ego?
First ego is kul abhimma, the.
I am born in the best dynasty.
(32:52):
Many people, they are egoistic.
I am born in that dynasty.
I have met people.
I think that I am connectedwith Jesus.
Either Jesus was crucified, hedidn't have a children,
according to many stories.
(33:12):
How can you belong to Jesus?
Right?
But people are people, manypeople.
They are so egoistic that I amon that dynasty.
My blood is same.
Hey, if your blood is same ornot same, right, why you be
(33:37):
egoistic about that?
Because you are born in thatdynasty or you are born in this
dynasty.
Everybody is going to die.
Do it Remove this ego.
Ego is the biggest blockages,all egos.
But I am going to categorizethem, eight kind of.
(34:02):
First is dynasty what kind offamily you are born.
Second is jati.
Jati is are you born in therich family?
Are you born in the poor family?
Are you born into the peoplethey don't consider you?
Are you born in Africa?
(34:22):
Are you born in America?
Are you born in India, china,everywhere?
So they begin to think oh, theyare the best one, right?
No matter where you are born,which country you are born,
(34:45):
which family you are born, youborn a poor family or rich
family?
Everybody is going to die.
And many people they make a bigego about it, right, even they
are born in the poor family.
Oh no, our scientificallyproven now our DNA matches to
(35:13):
our prophet.
Speaker 1 (35:14):
Right.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
If it matches what
you are poor, you are hand to
mouth.
Why to be egoistic?
But no, they want to be.
Then Balmad.
Balmad is many people.
They think I am the strongestone, I am very powerful, I am
(35:37):
very strong, and they begin tobe egoistic about it.
But you know, no matter howmuch strong you are, one day,
you know, everybody loses theirstrength when the age, little by
(35:58):
little, you become young, youbecome going towards becoming
older.
No matter how much your bodyhas strength, or how much your
family has strength, or how muchpower you hold, you will lose
one day, no matter what.
So, the Balmad, never, never beegoistic about your strength.
(36:25):
Now use it in the Many peoplethey are very egoistic.
Fourth mad is Rukh, that I amvery beautiful, I am very
handsome, I am, and they do it.
It is a one king who is knownto be very handsome, very
(36:52):
beautiful, but when little bitclick happened, you never know
what is going to happen nextmoment.
Even the heavenly planet, theking of the heaven, he
appreciates his beauty and thefew heavenly planet being.
(37:20):
They say how can it be sobeautiful?
We are the only beautiful inthe heaven.
But I will go to check he wasdoing in his garden early
morning.
They were massaging him,totally naked body.
When he saw he changes his theangel, he came.
(37:47):
He made some kind of differentbody, a regular person, and they
say I came from far away to seeyour beauty.
When he saw in the garden,totally, oh so beautiful.
Our king was telling right.
(38:08):
So he sent the message that Iwant to see the king.
He went that where are youcoming from?
King asked I am coming from faraway.
That take care of him.
(38:28):
You didn't see my beauty yet.
When I will take shower, put mydress, put my all ornaments
Right, then you come where.
In my court he didn't know that?
Speaker 1 (38:48):
who is he?
Speaker 2 (38:49):
He looks like a
simple person.
He said OK, sir, I will come.
They brought him there when hewas ready, for he was sitting on
his chair, royal chair in thecourt, with crown and royal
(39:12):
dress, everything like a king,all jewelry.
When he came, he saw him.
He said it's not the sameanymore.
When I saw you in the garden,you were the most beautiful and
(39:33):
he revealed himself.
I am not human, I am comingfrom the heaven, because my king
in the heaven, they appreciateyour beauty.
He prays everywhere.
That is nothing now.
You were so beautiful that time.
(39:55):
But now what are you talkingabout, talking about?
Go look at into the mirror.
You're inside so many bacteriabeing born and after a while it
is going to ooze your body.
(40:15):
I see it.
He went there.
He couldn't believe.
His skin began to becomedifferent.
He began to.
He touches his skin is like afull of mass.
Inside Pain began to start.
(40:39):
After a while his body began toooze.
A sickness broke, something init.
It is a real incident happened.
The king said wow, he changeseverything.
Root buds.
(40:59):
You never, never, never beegoistic about how you look like
.
Your beauty is not forever.
Everybody is decaying the bodyis decaying too and he said that
(41:23):
, okay, whatever happened beforeI lose this body, he just
decided to quit the kingdom andhe became a monk and he did lot
of tapasya, lot of tapas.
(41:45):
He decided I am going to eat.
After four days my body isgoing to die anyway, I am sick.
And he started.
After few years, the king, whowere praising him he is the most
beautiful on the earth, righthe came to visit him and he said
(42:15):
that I can make your body againsame beautiful Right, you don't
have to do lot of tapasya, thisand that, that.
Who are you?
Tell me?
First, I am Indra, king of theheaven that I was suffering
(42:38):
since 50 years.
Where were you that time?
Your karma was so aggressive,they were so powerful, I
couldn't take them away.
That why you are here now thatyour karma is over.
(43:01):
That, if your karma is over,what is your need now?
He spit on his hand and he putall over his body.
He became like again.
So beautiful Angels, they don'tgive you unless you have in
your luck.
Right After 50 years, theheavenly King comes to him
(43:28):
because his karma is over.
They cannot take away anythingfrom you, no matter it is
suffering, no matter it is athey cannot give you good stuff,
why we are into it, why we willbe so ego about the anything I
am talking about.
But this is Rupamatha, itreally happened to one king.
(43:51):
Then there is another kind ofegoistic when people get always
profit, profit, profit.
Everywhere they are gettingprofit and they become rich when
everything is and they makemillions, billions, right, and
(44:19):
sometimes they become soegoistic I am the richest one in
the world.
This profit, this benefit,whatever it is because of your
luck.
But the people become soegoistic and that is called this
is the biggest blockage.
(44:39):
Love profit is good, but whenit is, it becomes too much.
I can tell you the person whodoesn't have even $1,000, they
(44:59):
begin to think if I will workhard, so work hard, I am going
to make 10,000.
And they work day and night,day and night, they make 10,000.
When they earn 10,000 saving,they say I will work hard, that
(45:20):
I am going to make even more,100,000.
It never ends.
You even make a million, itnever going to end.
Million dollar, they want to bebillionaires, billionaire, they
want to be trillionaires.
They never going to satisfy.
(45:40):
So stop somewhere.
It is saying jaha lao, taha,loho.
The more we get it, the more weget greedy, and that greediness
will never going to end.
And next one is Vabha.
(46:01):
Vabha means all your belongingBig palaces, big buildings, big
these things.
And people get hey, look what Ihave, look what I have.
Hey, this everything, whatbelongs to you it is going to be
(46:24):
here.
You cannot take with you.
This is called Vabha.
Whatever you have, don't beegoistic about it.
It doesn't go with you.
Nothing can go with you.
Actually, you cannot takeanything.
(46:44):
One time we wrote in theFacebook that in the body, when
the dead body is in the coffinremember coffin doesn't have a
pocket to carry any diamonds orany riches.
It's all empty.
(47:05):
So it is good way not to beegoistic about your belongings,
whatever you have.
Why it is the biggest blockages?
Because now person is into itand they forget what is their
real purpose was.
Then there is a tapamada.
(47:25):
Tap means fast Asterity.
That I will fast that much.
Nobody can fast like me.
And there is a competitiongoing on in India sometime.
Oh, he did it too much.
I am going to do three months.
(47:46):
That is called tapamada.
Hey, you going to ruin yourbody, you don't be, egoistic of
that.
I am going to do it.
I am going to give you oneexample of this.
And that temple is coming inour this Siddhaitan Tirth.
(48:11):
You heard about the princesMully, princes Mully.
It is known that, according toJain system, all the
Tirthankaras, they are born as amale, but in this time, this
(48:34):
period of time, 19th Tirthankara, she was female.
It is a story behind it how afemale become a Tirthankara.
Speaker 1 (48:52):
In general.
Speaker 2 (48:53):
There is a system
that everybody can get
enlightened, no problem.
But there is a system alsoTirthankara has to, because this
is very difficult.
They have to go through in verydifficult way.
So they think the man haslittle more strength to do it,
(49:18):
Right?
One guy, he was boasting that,hey, not a single lady.
Usually they die by heartattack.
They have more patience, theyhave more tolerance, they have
(49:41):
more thing.
But there are exceptions.
They die by heart attack too.
But mostly men die by heartattack, Most of male.
Because one guy was boastingwhy we die by heart attack?
(50:05):
Because we have a heart.
It means female, they don'thave heart.
He was boasting himself oh, wehave a heart, that's why we die
by heart attack.
So the tapamada, I am fasting.
(50:25):
I am fasting so much.
How she became a Tirthankara.
Let me start her life story.
She was born in Mahavideh.
Mahavideh is another kind ofgalaxy in this universe.
(50:46):
We live in this galaxy.
She was not in this galaxy.
This is Mahavideh.
Name of the earth Mahavideh isa very time moves there
differently.
There is less suffering, moreSukha more, but there is
(51:09):
sufferings too.
In Mahavideh's Sheth it is aSalilavati, watch the continent.
And there was Kosvita, now withShoka by the city.
There was a king.
(51:31):
King's name was Bal and hiswife Dharini, and there was.
When she got pregnant, she sawa lion in her dream and she had
(52:02):
a baby boy.
They gave the baby boy's nameMahabala Mahabala, strongest one
.
When the Mahabala became young,his father Bala, he began to
(52:24):
think that the age never knowwhen it is going to be gone.
He heard one monk's spiritualdiscourse his name was
Dharmaghoja and he became somuch allergic of that he gave
(52:46):
the kingdom to his young prince,Mahabala, and he renounced the
kingdom.
Now Mahabala is, you know,began to rule over the kingdom.
And when Mahabala was rulingover, he got young, he got
(53:13):
married and he has a beautifulson.
His name was Bal Bhadra.
Bal Bhadra became a king.
Mahabala also renounced thekingdom and he wanted to do his
own sadhana, his own karma.
He wanted to finish.
(53:34):
Now the Bal Bhadra became aking.
When Bal Bhadra became a king,there were six more, his
childhood friends, six childhoodfriends.
(53:57):
Their name also we can tell youVajradharan, puran Vasu.
They were all childhood friendsand childhood friends when they
would play together.
All seven they were born intothe rich families in the same
(54:22):
kingdom and they were childhoodfriends even though he became a
king.
But one day they were playingand in the playing they say no
matter good time or bad time, wewill be together forever.
We will not leave each other,bad timing or good timing.
(54:47):
And they become, and we will doeverything together.
Then time passes, they becomeyoung, married, having children.
One day they heard a specialmonk discourse and they decided
(55:09):
to renounce the kingdom.
All of them, seven of them,when they became a monk.
All of seven.
They decided because they wentthrough all luxuries already,
all riches already, whensomebody went through already.
They are not into it anymore.
(55:30):
They started doing lot offasting to burn their all karma
and of course, the king.
He was the senior, who was theking Balbhadra, and he remained
the senior there too, in themonkhood, even though they
(55:54):
became monk together.
Now their teacher left, Now hebecame the senior Balbhadra and
they will ask to him now, allthe other, his six friends,
childhood friends, now they aremonk that what we do now, that
(56:18):
we will do two days fasting,then third day we will eat.
He said, okay, they do two daysfasting and they say, okay, we
are going to go back, bring thefood.
Okay, you can go.
They bring the food and theysay, let's break the fast.
(56:44):
Food is ready, got it already.
He said, oh, I decided to dothird one that you could have
told us we could have dotogether three.
Oh, but you brought the food,you can break your fast.
(57:04):
They do fourth day sometime andhe does the same thing when
they bring the food, you breakit.
I did fifth day.
So he was deceiving in good way.
He didn't deceive them bad way,but he's deceiving.
(57:25):
He's deceiving and they alwaystell you could have tell us too.
They deceived only that much.
All of their life.
They were doing tapasya, theywere doing meditation, they were
doing lot of good sadhana, buthe wanted to be the best one.
(57:52):
He wanted to be the go to thenirvana moksha first one.
So his idea, his intention, wasvery good.
(58:20):
His intention was to burn allthe karma as quick as possible
and reach to the enlightenmentand go to the moksha.
That was his idea.
But he's deceiving to the sixthchildhood friend Now.
After that they all went to thehighest planet where, like
(58:46):
luxuries, everything After theyare born again on the earth.
But not in the Mahavidae.
They born here in Bharatkshetra.
That is called Bharatkshetra,bharatkshetra on this earth, on
this earth when they are born.
It was a Mithla city.
(59:08):
Mithla is still.
We went there in Nepal whereSita was born, mithla.
That time Mithla, the city ofMithla, was very prosperous.
He was born Mahabalas, likeBalwander he was born.
(59:34):
We are in the Mithla, I agree,and Kumbh was the name of the
king and Prabhavati was hismother and the first one who was
deceiving him.
He was born the Prabhavati seefault in kind of dream the lion,
(59:59):
the beautiful ocean, the 14special dreams.
If somebody gets pregnant andshe sees it and the special kind
of soul is going to be born andit will give the light to the
(01:00:23):
whole world.
She was very happy and she hada baby named Mally.
Mally was a princess and allthese her childhood friends.
They were born into the otherdynasty somewhere and they were
(01:00:46):
born as a male and after a whilethat is the tradition in India
the father gets older.
He gives all the responsibilityto the son.
They become all king exceptMally.
Mally princess, she knewalready because she was born as
(01:01:14):
Tirthankar because her intentionwas so pure.
Her intention was to burn allthe karma.
Her intention was to get theenlightenment.
In this enlightenment there waslittle deceiving to the other
childhood friends, that I willbe the best one.
(01:01:35):
That's what it is.
Little bit.
This kind of ego changed hergender.
She became female and shebecame female.
And our childhood friend Now,who is born as a Tirthankara
(01:01:56):
special person on the earth,extraordinary person on the
earth Tirthankara means whoestablished all the Tirtha and
establishment.
People can learn from it foreverand they are born with three
kind of knowledge mati jnan,shruti jnan and avadhi jnan.
(01:02:21):
Let me tell you what is matijnan.
Mati jnan means whatever weheard.
We never forget that If it iscomplete.
Mati mati jnan, the knowledge.
Once we heard it or read it, itis just on you like a
photographic memory.
Everything, mati jnan, whateveryou heard, that is called shruti
(01:02:48):
jnan, mati jnan, you are sointelligent.
Whatever you see, whatever youhear, everything goes into it.
Whatever you heard, that isshruti jnan.
Whatever you read, it goes intoyou.
Everything and you never forgetit.
Complete.
(01:03:09):
And third jnan was avadhi.
Avadhi means up to certainextent, thousand miles.
They see each other like I amseeing you same way, hundred
thousand miles sometimes.
They can see millions milesaway.
As it is, no blockages on theirway, no walls, no mountain,
(01:03:32):
nothing.
So they can see as it is.
So she was born with three kindsof complete knowledge and she
knew already what is going tohappen.
She began to grow, they beganto grow on the other dynasty.
(01:03:52):
Nobody knows each other exceptPrincess Mully.
When she became young she wasamazing, beautiful, because when
somebody does the fastingkarmas get burned next life
(01:04:14):
their body is amazing thatpeople see, they become
hypnotized by look.
She was so charming, beautiful,gorgeous body is so like.
Just you look at just peopleget hypnotized.
(01:04:35):
And when she became a young sheknew the consequences, what is
going to happen.
She told her father kump, nameof the father and mother I want
to make a special palace here.
You are only child.
(01:04:56):
Whatever you want.
They make special palace forher the way she wanted it and
they say special six rooms.
You make it and seventh roomhas to be in the middle.
They made architecture becauseif somebody is born as a
(01:05:22):
Tirthankar they have a lot ofknowledge.
She made it and she made one ofher statue Looks like her,
totally not the wax statue, aspecial statue of gold, and it
(01:05:43):
looks like same, like her, andshe has a little cover.
She kept only one hole in it,little cover in it.
When she became a young, herbeauty spread all over every
(01:06:04):
kingdom.
That Mali, the princess, who isthe most beautiful on this
earth, and what she does, shehas a little lid.
Whatever she eats one littlepiece of the food she dumped in
(01:06:26):
it, it is whole inside hollowand she closed the lid again.
She kept doing one year, twoyears, and all these kings from
the other kingdom, her childhoodfriends.
(01:06:46):
They were together, monks theywere together.
They also swear together,everything do together.
They become young too and theyheard her beauty and they are
very powerful.
They are myth-locking, sostrong.
Their kingdom is bigger eventhat.
(01:07:08):
And the message I want Maliprincess to marry me.
Other ones and two, all six ofthem, because maybe whenever
they see her picture somewhere,they are because of the
(01:07:29):
childhood friend.
They live together, they worktogether, they did everything
together.
Because of that love, becauseof that attachment attracts them
even more.
And they send the message thisis only for me, one other send
(01:07:50):
only I want to marry her All six.
And they find out he wants, hewants, he wants.
Then they say, well, bettertake our army there, otherwise
maybe somebody others king willmarry her All six.
(01:08:13):
They brought their biggest armythere and, surrounded by the
army, the whole myth-lock cityand the he became so worried.
The fathers, the king, what doI do?
They have a big army.
I don't have it.
(01:08:34):
I cannot even protect PrincessMali.
She went there to her father.
He was very worried, stressedthat, father, what you are,
stressed why you are tensed.
Look at the biggest army we aresurrounded by.
(01:08:54):
And we don't have a big army,then don't worry.
I am going to take care of it.
You send the message to everyking that you are the only one
can marry Princess Mali, but besecret to everyone that only you
(01:09:17):
and you are invited at night tostay in her palace.
He said he's got the message.
Everyone got the message.
How I was the only one.
The way the palace was made theyare separate room but in the
(01:09:42):
hall they can see their roomsare so far it's a big palace.
So first one came, second onecame.
They stayed at night.
At night there was no light.
They say, okay, in the morningshe will meet us Right At night.
(01:10:05):
They spent somehow and in themorning they got ready.
As soon as they got ready andthey come out the room, there
was a window, special window.
They see, and they see the Malithere, because the daylight, at
night there was no light andeverybody sees it and they think
(01:10:32):
it is a real.
But it was a statue of her andthey got so attracted more and
more even that how I am going tomarry, she is going to talk to
us.
And suddenly, when they wereall ready, the windows.
(01:10:53):
They have English screenwindows, but you cannot go Other
side.
The screens were very solidkind of.
She opened Mali real princesscame and she took the lid out
(01:11:13):
and she left.
And when she took the lid out,you know what happened.
Everywhere is so bad smellBecause the food, what she was
putting there, every day onelittle piece it got rotten and
there is a lot of warm inside.
(01:11:35):
It is like a deadly smell allover spread into the palace
Because the window they have ascreen window.
All smell went there ineverybody's room and they began
to just wanted to go out fromthat palace and they were
(01:12:01):
greeted outside.
Meet Mali.
She was sitting in the gardenthat you wanted to marry me, all
of you, and you are so afraidof it.
So smell.
(01:12:21):
Hey, what is this body?
This body is also covered bythe skin.
Can you believe?
If there is no skin, can youstand with it?
You are just brought this bigarmy for this kind of body.
Shame on you.
(01:12:43):
They got so much impressed andthey began to think remember
what we decided together.
Do you remember anything?
Go in meditation then you willremember it.
And the more she talks, themore she talks that we were
(01:13:04):
together.
We used to play together, webecame a monk together.
Remember how much we did it?
And I was doing third you do.
Oh, I did third fast.
I did fourth fast.
You break it.
The more she talked about thepast life, the more something
(01:13:27):
happened to them and they beganto memorize.
The past life began to flashback and they got the past life
knowledge.
Oh, we were all friends.
They say please forgive us.
Forgive us that now, after oneyear, you go and we will
(01:13:56):
renounce the whole kingdom again.
That is your last life.
They remember he was ourteacher seniors and she became a
Mali.
Then one year it is known thatshe donated to the poor whatever
(01:14:18):
in the kingdom and after oneyear donating to the people
everything, it is calledvarshidhan.
Varshidhan for one year.
They donate Because the king, Ihave lot of money.
They begin.
Whoever comes in the line,whoever goes to beg, she gives
(01:14:41):
to everyone.
After that she time comes andshe became a monk.
She renounced the kingdom andthey came to.
They all together renounced it.
There was no one there becauseTirthankar they don't have a
(01:15:03):
teacher.
Tirthankar is the teacher andthat is for your knowledge.
That is the only Tirthankar.
He is a female.
Second is amazing AllTirthankar Mahavir, last one.
He took twelve and a half yearsto get enlightenment.
(01:15:25):
As soon as she gets the dhikshameans she renounced the kingdom
.
She got manpariya-gya.
Fourth knowledge is now you canread everybody's mind as it is
what is going on in their mindin the past or future or present
(01:15:47):
.
That is called manpariya-gyaknowledge.
As soon as she renounced it,she got fourth knowledge, and
that is the only Tirthankar.
After three hours she gotenlightened.
Malli-bhai they began to callher Prince, malli, became a
(01:16:15):
Malli-bhai Tirthankar, but sameon the gents.
They still began to call herMalli-naath, like a male, but
she was a female, but they callit Malli-naath.
Nineteenth Tirthankar is aMalli-naath.
She did so much tapasya fasting.
(01:16:38):
She burned all the karma.
It was just a little bit leftand within three hours she got
enlightenment.
She is the only Tirthankarwithin three hours Got
enlightenment and there were alot of after that.
(01:16:59):
Her spiritual discourses First,many princes.
They became monk.
It is known that she madetwenty-eight gandhar.
Gandhar means the leader of thegroup, twenty-eight groups.
She divided A lot of people,thousands of people in her
Sangha, at least forty thousandmonks and fifty-five thousand
(01:17:27):
nuns, and she teaches a lot ofgood principles.
That is the way, like if you dothe tapamada, she has an ego
about their fasting.
She became a Tirthankar becauseshe was into it.
(01:17:48):
Her intention, his intention,was very good, to burn all the
karma, but little deceivingchanged that gender, so it is
better.
What about if you deceivelittle too much?
You are not born, not even maleor female.
(01:18:12):
You were born on the third kindof category.
We call them unique.
I don't know what is theEnglish word.
They are not, they don't haveany.
They are like male or femaleorgans.
(01:18:35):
They are third kind of people.
They are born.
We call that, hey, this ismaybe something wrong in the
body.
But no, those are the peoplewho deceived intentionally, too
much Intentionally, and theyreally deceived it and their
(01:18:58):
intention was bad.
So they are born on.
The third kind of category younever do the ego about even good
stuff.
Tapamada, this is the biggestblockage.
It can.
It can do lot of other thing.
Tapamada is not a good.
(01:19:19):
And the next one is Gyanmada.
If you have lot of knowledge,don't boast about it.
These are the blockages.
How many?
It became Nine, then six.
One is Anayatan.
Anayatan means which is notyour place, but you begin to
(01:19:46):
think this is my place.
They don't give you any help,but you are clinging with.
This is my real help.
You may be, hang out with thealcoholic people and you.
That is not your place, but itbecomes.
You are into it, you getindulged into it.
Think about it.
(01:20:07):
Whom you make your friend, whomyou think they are good people,
maybe seek that kind of company.
But there are six Anayatan.
Anayatan means they are notreally yours, but you begin to
think them.
Your first is Mithyadarishan.
(01:20:27):
Mithyadarishan means falsevision, false understanding.
That is called Mithyadarishan,that is Anayatan, that is not
really your place.
But you begin to think.
You see everything that thosepeople think, everywhere they
(01:20:47):
are negative, negative, negative.
They don't think anything elseexcept negativity.
Mithyadarishan, false vision,false understanding.
Then Mithyagyan.
Mithyagyan means they have aknowledge but opposite knowledge
.
They go on the backward.
(01:21:10):
Everywhere they find somethingfalse, something, everywhere
mistake, no matter it issomebody doing right thing, they
will find some kind of mistakein them.
That is Mithyagyan.
And then Mithyacharitra theirbehavior, their habits, their
(01:21:32):
conduct, their character, theirkind of, different kind of, and
they take them to the lower sideinstead of upper side.
And these are the three.
But who follows them?
Fourth one is calledMithyadarshani, means who is
(01:21:54):
following the false vision,false understanding.
That becomes fourth one.
And then fifth one, mithyagyan.
They have a knowledge, but allrotten knowledge, all bad
knowledge, maybe always into the, what you call that.
(01:22:16):
They read those kind of novelswhich is like they go on the
secret journey, what you callthose novels, criminal novels or
secret novels.
(01:22:36):
Criminal means they take themdifferent kind of how to kill
people, how to do this right, isit knowledge?
But wrong knowledge.
That is Mithyagyan.
They become?
They will collect knowledge,but collect all the bad
knowledge, right.
Secret services, fbi, cia, theyare all collecting all kind of
(01:23:02):
different kind of knowledge.
That same thing, mithyaCharitri.
They are conduct, who are?
They are bad conduct, bad habit, bad behavior.
These are the six.
Anayatana.
Anayatana, they are not reallyyours.
(01:23:22):
They will take you in the wrongway, so avoid them.
These are the six blockages.
So six and eight, fourteen andfifteen.
Now it is a fifteen and sixteen, right, mood Trayam, madhash,
(01:23:44):
chastra, tatha Anayatani, eight,six, fourteen and Mood Trayam,
yeah, fifteen, eighteen, yeah,eighteen.
Now Seventeen, sorry, three andeight, eleven and six,
(01:24:04):
seventeen, three, kind ofignorance.
So it becomes seventeen andeight.
Whatever, I gave you some eightkind of special things.
I gave you.
You reverse them.
How you reverse them?
(01:24:25):
First, I gave you Nishank thatyou don't doubt.
You don't have a, you justfollow it wholeheartedly.
But when there is a doubt thereis always some kind of
blockages in you.
(01:24:46):
But it is opposite.
Opposite means they alwaysdoubt, no matter what.
That is a big blockages If youwill always doubt.
Even Tirthankara is telling oneguy.
He came to me he said hey, youthink you are enlightened.
This is in my hand.
(01:25:06):
There is a bird, tell me if hehas life or not life, how many
years it will going to survive.
If I will tell him that thisbird has life, he is going to
kill him right away.
This is so little.
(01:25:27):
But if I will tell that, no,this doesn't have a life anymore
, his life is over, then he willgo into religion.
So what I will tell?
I tell, hey, I told him, thispoor bird's life is in your head
, right, it is in your head.
(01:25:50):
So the people, they always,they always doubt.
That is a big blockage.
No matter they are good stuff,they still doubt it.
And this big blockage never doit.
Second one.
Second one is Akankshta.
(01:26:13):
This was near Akankshta before.
Akankshta means they desire,they desire, they desire, they
desire everything and desirenever finish, desiring always.
So that is a big blockageDesires never going to be
fulfilled.
(01:26:33):
Third one is Vichiksta thatwhatever you are following the
path, you always have doubt onthe path.
And when you have it too muchdoubt, right, that is Vichiksta.
(01:26:57):
And you criticize that path.
You have doubt or you have.
You are criticizing other pathtoo.
Maybe they are good too.
Fourth one is Mudhrist.
Mudhrist, is that Mudhrayam, myGod, that there are only three
(01:27:22):
things you can follow Dev, guruDharam and Shastra.
Four things Dev means who isthe divine.
Divine means who is on the path.
Guru, who is a spiritualteacher.
Dharam Dharam means thescripture, which is a good
scripture.
Give you good knowledge.
Dev, guru Dharam and the path.
(01:27:45):
These are the fourth.
But they don't follow that.
That is a big blockage becausethey are not familiar with it.
Fifth one is Gohan.
That Gohan means like you findmistake in everybody's good
(01:28:06):
qualities, but if you don't havea quality, you tell that I have
this quality, I have thisquality, I have this quality.
Other people's qualities youput down and you.
That is called Gohan.
That is a big blockage.
People have this kind of habitalso.
And sixth one is Asthiri Karnamthat somebody is falling down
(01:28:34):
and you help them to fall downeven more.
People love it when somebodyloses it.
They become so happy.
Somebody become like they losttheir million dollar Ah, that is
the time.
And they become so happy.
They want to.
They give even more bad advicethis, this, this.
(01:28:58):
They will lose everything.
The person who is falling down,they help even more.
And they appreciate they helpthem too.
They never going to go up again.
So that is the sixth one.
Seventh one is Abhatsalta nolove, no compassion, nothing,
(01:29:25):
and they are just a bad wife'salways.
So this is a big blockages nocompassion, no love, no
following the any path.
That is a big.
And eighth one is Apravavana.
Apravavana means the good one,wise, prabhavana.
(01:29:50):
You do the if you following thepath and it helps you a lot.
You spread the message all over.
But what they do they?
Why?
Somebody is spreading this goodmessage on the social media.
Suppose they begin to put thatidea down.
(01:30:11):
That is called Apravavana.
Apravavana means they are not,they are spreading the message,
but bad ways.
When they spread the message,bad ways, people begin to think
about it.
They will not follow it.
It becomes this is a bigblockages.
(01:30:32):
They know it.
This is a good idea, whateverthey are spreading, but they
write opposite of it.
When they write opposite of it,they are putting it down.
These are the 25 blockages.
And meditation never going tohappen.
And there are five more gathas.
(01:30:53):
I have to tell you about themeditation and tomorrow I am
going to explain it.
When all these 25 dosas, allblockages, are removed from your
life, there is no one can stopyou to go deep in meditative
(01:31:17):
state.
And when meditative statehappens deeply.
Nobody can stop you to achievethe highest state of
consciousness, enlightenment.
Like Mali Princess there aremany examples like that king who
(01:31:37):
became totally opposite sideegoistic and he became again a
monk and he got enlightened.
Same life.
So it is the anything can bepositive, anything can take a
(01:31:59):
twist in your life if you avoidall these blockages from your

Speaker 1 (01:32:58):
At Charashe.
We have two minutes left on ourrecording.
Speaker 2 (01:33:03):
We will be fasting
tomorrow, so if you want to
inspire others, yeah, tomorrowis the last day, and last day
usually it is the only day ismandatory fasting.
That they fast one day only.
In Jain system is so easy one.
(01:33:24):
They don't force you to fasttoo much, but once one day at
least.
They say why.
I am going to explain tomorrowwhy.
But they don't even drink water.
They do all day about.
They look at themselves, theygo deep into meditative state.
(01:33:47):
They forget eating and drinking, even water.
It is called Chau Bihar andChau Bihar.
Chau Bihar means no eating, nodrinking, no medicine, nothing,
totally not to touch anything toyour mouth, to go inside your
body, nothing Except breath.
(01:34:10):
You cannot stop, you have tobreathe.
This it is at least 36 hours.
If somebody can go through, itburns lot of karma.
When you do the fasting withoutwater it burns very quickly.
(01:34:32):
You are all karma and itremoves your blockages.
Remember, tomorrow is the onlyday.
I will suggest do it, if it ispossible, without water.
Jai Siddhatma.
