3rd oct Satsang notes: - Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

3rd oct Satsang notes: Consciousness is expressed in 6 ways: Power to: 1. Desire : one after another keeps coming and we get caught up in it, it is that we want more. 2. Knowing : I made a mistake, action done (Power of knowing) knowledge : read that read that, get to know different things Knowing: 3. (Act )Kriya shakti : activity - every action is part of kriya shakti, ability to act. 4. Shanta : ability to become quiet, we need to simply develop it 5. Vimarsh : understanding: Judging - wheter right or wrong, good or bad 6. Prakash : presence - Light All these 6 powers find it's place in yagya. In yagya the energy is high than you are high, you cannot express it in words, it's beyond our logical understanding, we get energy beyond our thinking is aaprakasha, experiencing the presence. Present moment is so deep and vast to exp. It you need to understand whole world is not real than you will not be in past or future, when can you be in present completely when you let go of other things, what? 1. desire, it's in the future, when you know it's taken care than ita gone. 2. Vimarsha : this whole thing is a dream,nothing is there. world cannot be captured by explanation, we try by intellect and go into ego. its all nothing. Ask one question : What is reality Who am I These question take you into silence You realise this whole world is maya, everything is changing, nothing is permanent. How do you experience prakash? Through knowledge. You take sankalpa and leave it knowing it will be taken care of, this or something better than this. Abobasparsha: I got in touch with something which is not my After sankalpa you say this : I got into small things now I am washing it off. You are much bigger than desire you hold onto, we are not able to exp. Infinity if we hold onto, But it's important so exp. It and drop it. In life every thing has meaning from a needle to button, little things have a lot meaning, small things have lot of significance In life. Siginificance of insiginificant things is something of which we should be aware about. All things wheter man made or other are divine acitivoty, recognise that and move on to the quiet state Very few people reach to last 2 out of above 6. We should have power to silence . Don't try to do everything through vimarsh. If you are desire in too much you will be miserable, if you are stuck in knowlerye than too miserable, action- no action too much action, others action can alll lead into mosery. If you know how to he quiet only than you can be silent If you know how to overcome miserable only than you can move ahead from misery. Vimarsha : judging others , judging self, try to correct people. How much can you fill pitfalls? If you want to mov up how will you go if you keep on filling your pitfalls than prakasha does not come. Knowledge can be used to see I am nothing everything happens by some karna, than you get serenity and go into another dimension. Like we got here and went into completely high presence. This knowledge is not for intellactuals, in aol we are in Intellact as well as we are general. That something more can also not be revealed to everyone. And not in one go it's done slowly. Ahankaar 3 types : satvik tamsik rajsi Satvik: hume prakash ki or lekar jaata hai. ______ Jisme dosh hai rehne do kab tak dekte rahoge and correct karte rahoge, ya khud ko dekhoge and correct karoge rehne do, apna aage bade aankh utha ke dekho Aasmaan itta bada hai. Yagya buddhi se samajhne wala ni hai usse pare hai exp. Karna yehi prakash hai. Aise hi jeevan mai lekin balance karke Vinarsh bi Ichha shakti bi Shant hona bi Sab important hai, koi bole bas lazy rahenge nahi, koi bole restless hai bahut ye sab theek ni. Guru ke sanidhya mai sab hai isliye baar baar yaad dilao khud ko. Jab bi aaap dukhi ho apne se dur chale gye isliye dukhi ho, mai kuch hu mai kuch hi isliye, aham vimarsh karta hai and prakash hone ni deta. Sharnagati matlab aham ko satvik bana ke usse pare jaana. In yagya we wow seed , it only has life when it's manifested, How do we bring prana up? When we put in water, yagya is done by creating prana, first thing is preparation, on day 1 woman planted the seeds and put in water, the seed sprout and they invoke the prana shakti. In the last day we all dance with joy, result of yagya beginning is to bring prana up its up in the space, food comes from earth, all blisss all emotions come from space when this sprouts all other things srout as well, so in the we dance and celebrate around the sprouts. Done from ancient time and it's nice to be there. So the prana is envoked in water, fire earth, - all 5 elements than you seee bliss sprouting - dance fun meditation celebration that's what you see here. Tom is dusshera : shanti rastu pushti rastu : Peace prosperity and happiness and peace. Wish everyone and bless everyone, sow the seed up there. Our very presence should being smile in others. Our presence should make others happy.
