Part 2: The Koshas🔗

A: Yes surely. If it was a clear vision, a clear picture, then surely it is a samskara. It means that those engrams are coming out. You see: your prarabdha is like a Pandora box; when you open each layer, the next will emerge. It is good that you really opened one layer. Good job. If you had at least one violent experience for a few seconds, if you lost the idea that you were a man for even one second, then you have been successful; you have done it!

See, I have an idealistic goal, as well an actual goal, for this workshop. The idealistic goal is: you getting enlightened. The actual goal is like this: I know to what extent you will do the meditations and open up. The technology itself is powerful enough to make you enlightened, but your capability to experience that technology, your capability to put yourself into it, I am aware of…so with that, I have a practical goal also for you. At least, you will have good rejuvenation and release the engrams which you use in your day to day life.

The engrams with which you suffer day to day are the simple and basic diseases like insomnia, tiredness or chronic fatigue, addictions etc. Also, you will experience intense joy or excitement. Physical and mental healing is the practical goal. The ideological goal is enlightenment. This is the idea behind the whole program.

This opening that you feel, for even one second, this feeling of being disconnected from your identity that you are a man, itself will release these basic engrams which are constantly bothering your life now. You see, the moment you lose your imbalance, the first things, like anger or lust, will surface. Those engrams will come out first. Those layers will be healed first.

Even that will give you so much benefit. That itself will take care of you so much. That is the purpose. So even for a few moments, if you completely forgot that you had a human body, you have done it!

Q: During the animal body meditation this time, I felt like an eagle and many other birds. But I felt strongly about the monkey. It was the only animal that I felt experientially.

A: It means that in one of your previous births, when you took the jump from animal to human form, you must have been a monkey. You might have taken three or four human births previous to this time. But just before taking the first human form, the animal, from which you took that jump, would have been the monkey!

Q: I got really aggressive during the animal meditation. I just didn't want to let it go until I felt the last drop of it had come out of me. When it happened, I felt like it was finished.

A: Beautiful! You will see from now on, that when you become angry, or when you are possessed by lust, you will not have violence; you will not have the animal nature in you. You will have beautiful grace! When you start expelling all the animal engrams in the path of enlightenment, your body will start acquiring such grace.

Actually in our ashrams, the big problem is that the ashramites don"t take me seriously even if I become angry. Even if I shout at them, they will go behind my back and discuss amongst themselves, "He looks so beautiful even when he shouts!" The problem is, the enlightened body language, because it is devoid of any samskaras, is packed with so much grace, that it is difficult to show violence in it. Even when we try to show violence, it will not come through as real violence! That is the problem.

Anyhow, you will see that you will not be able to have violence anymore. Even when you become angry, you will not have the monkey violence which was sitting in you for all these days. One more thing: even if you fall into anger, you will be able to quickly come back from it also. See … when the monkey was sitting inside you, you might have taken two days to settle down in your anger. But now, when the animal is not there in you, you might become angry, but the next moment it will just disappear! That is the tremendous transformation that this meditation does in you.

Your annamaya kosha, your physical body, is not just your body. It is a collection of so many prints together. Now, we are working to make the physical body as your own body, that"s all. We are working to bring the whole thing under your control so that you will live completely inside the body. It will be a very pleasant feeling if the body is owned completely by you.

Q: The animals that we have eaten in the past, will they affect our koshas?

A: You see: the suffering recorded in the animal"s body when it was killed, that suffering will be there in your body if you eat the animal. But the animal"s samskara itself will not be there. The animal"s quality will not be there.

Whenever an animal is killed, it leaves tremendous suffering. You see: you are not eating the animal that died naturally. You are eating it after killing it. It is a premature death for the animal. Because it is killed prematurely, it harbors a lack of fulfillment in its flesh. When you swallow that flesh, those feelings will naturally be recorded in you. But the quality of that animal will not get recorded in you.

I have seen that vegetarian people are less prone to depression. Understand: No vegetarian company is sponsoring me to say these things. I am not sponsored by any vegetarian food producers or companies. From my own experience, I am telling you. I have done enough of research in the human consciousness. I have worked with millions of disciples. So, I can tell you for sure, that vegetarian food helps you, even if you are not a spiritual seeker. Even if you are not a person who is interested in spirituality, even to live a normal life, vegetarian food helps a lot.

Q: Speaking of food, how about plants? We kill and eat plants, too.

A: I have consciously scanned and seen the case with plants. Plants do not have so much of consciousness as to suffer, to experience pain. But animals experience a lot of pain; that"s the thing.

Q: What about eggs?

A: In eggs also, there is a possibility of life if allowed to continue. With milk, there is no possibility. People ask me, "Swamiji, like milk comes from the cow, egg comes from the hen; then why is it that milk is vegetarian and egg is not vegetarian? If you sit on milk and incubate it, you won"t get a calf! But if you sit on an egg, you will get a chicken. That is the reason. Somebody may ask if it is alright to eat poultry eggs. Poultry eggs may not have the male part, but the feminine part of life is there. The moment the possibility for life is there, it becomes non vegetarian food.

Q: Swamiji, I just wanted to know…when we were doing that exercise, it was so powerful…what is your part in the exercise?

A: My part… to open you up! You see: there are many strong and hard nuts in every meditation program. To crack them is my first job. Second thing: those karmas which are released, have to disappear. That job too, I do. Moreover, the vacuum spaces which you create within you by releasing the animal engrams will be filled by my presence! Understand: it is a very esoteric process.

Usually when I explain these esoteric processes, it seems like I am claiming too many things. So I generally don"t answer these in a detailed fashion. Even this morning, when I claimed that I am enlightened, I saw that a few people were hurt.

But what can be done? Krishna says very clearly in the Bhagavad Gita, "Unless I tell about myself, you can"t know. You will not know." In the same way, whatever you know about me is not enough. If you attend two or three programs, your understanding about me will start developing and expanding.

Just try to attend two or three programs; then you will understand. Your understanding about me will also expand.

See, before the meditation, you had the animal parts inside you. After the meditation, most of those engrams have come out. Now, the possibility of having an enlightened body will be recorded inside you. So, during the moments that you decide your next body, there is a possibility that you will design it to be an enlightened Master! You will ask for the best model. You will rewind and view all the models that you saw. You will see that the enlightened model is the best model, and you will say, "Okay, let"s go ahead!"

A: No, you are not doing anything wrong. If you are unable to open up, it means that you are not able to get rid of the strong human identity that you are holding now. Alright, at least in the next few meditations, decide that you are going to break. Even if it is like acting, in the initial level, it is alright. For a few minutes, it will seem like acting; then you will see, that suddenly things open up.

Again, I am seeing families sitting together. Please sit away from each other, for at least these few days. (Pointing to a particular person) I think you did a program in Canada, am I right? Yes! I can even tell you where you sat during the program. You were sitting and leaning on the wall; am I right?

You are shocked! You see … because I don"t have any emotional memories, I have access to everything that happened in the past! Emotional memories are like high resolution pictures; they will take away too much of your hard disk space. If you don"t have emotional memories, which are actually like high resolution pictures, you can store millions of Word documents in your memory!

In my case, everything is only a Word document, because there is no emotional attachment to any memory. So, I can store, recall, process and handle millions of documents. When I tell some of the ashramites to pick up particular books from the library, I will tell them the exact location where to find it! I will tell them: go to the second cupboard and look in the seventh row. Pick up the tenth book, go to the forty second page, pick up the verse in that page and bring it! That is the way the instruction will be given! This is because I have no emotional attachment to any memory. There is no emotional attachment to any one form or any one thing.

Another big problem with me (enlightened beings) is, the moment I am away from a particular country or ashram, I won"t even remember the names of the close disciples in that country or ashram. This is a big problem for the disciples! They will start saying, "Swamiji never remembers us, he never asks about us." It is not that! I just access different portions of the memory, as and when required, that"s all. If you are in front of me again, I will attend to everything concerning you, from the last time we left off, perfectly!

There is no emotional attachment for me with anything or anyone. But I have so much space, that I make everyone feel special. But everyone wants to be specially special, there starts the problem!

This problem is not just with women. It is everybody"s problem. At least women are simple, and innocent enough to tell me that they need my attention. These men are very cunning; they don"t have the courage to tell, but when they get the attention, they will be so happy and beaming!

Q: What form will an enlightened person choose when leaving the last human form?

A: Actually, enlightened people need not take up any form. They have nothing to achieve by taking up any form because they can always operate without assuming any form. When there is something to be achieved with the help of a body and mind, you choose a body and take birth. Enlightenment is like an overflowing fulfillment. When you become enlightened, you feel your enlightenment not just within your own skin, but you feel it alive in every other creature"s skin, in every tree and rock. I tell you … I feel alive inside every skin! How much I feel alive inside this skin, with the same depth and same energy, I feel alive in every other skin. That is the reason why enlightened beings do not need a separate body or form to operate. Of course, when they take up a form, the form is used as a center from which the operations can be performed. Other than that, there is nothing to be enjoyed through this form for them.

Q: Many people say that when we come near you, they know for sure that you are reading our mind.

A: Actually, I never read your mind. I respect your privacy. I never read your mind. Only when people ask for some guidance, I try to help them. But when you come near me, understand that I am alive inside your skin also. The person who is alive inside this skin is alive in your skin also. That is why you feel a little shaken with the feeling that I might be reading your mind. Q: Human beings who do not see an enlightened person in this birth, cannot chose an enlightened form after death, so what are his options? Another human form?

A: You can become a little more intelligent human being, or an artist, or something like that. Whatever option you saw in your life, from that you will choose the best option.

Q: How many life forms do we take, and what happens after the maximum number?

A: There is no maximum number. Till you achieve enlightenment, you continue to take life forms.

Q: How can I continue to have dreamless sleep?

A: If you do the Shakti Dharana meditation before going to bed, it will lead to dreamless sleep. Of course, if you want to have permanently dreamless sleep, even without doing Shakti Dharana, you have to get enlightened. After enlightenment, you won"t have dreams, because day dreaming stops, and because of that, you will not have night dreams either.

Q: It is very painful for me to carry these engrams. Why are we carrying these painful engrams? Is it because of our ego, or is it an unavoidable principle of rebirth?

A: It is an unavoidable principle of rebirth. It is not just your ego. Your ego can accumulate the social conditioning of this civilization. But the animal engrams that you bring, are a natural thing. Not working to clear those engrams, can be the play of your ego.

Q: What is the practical technique to work on animal engrams? If I feel anger or irritation, how do I come back quickly to my natural self? Do you ever mildly even feel anger, or any of these engrams

```

```

Q: This is a beautiful question. If you expand your inner space, you won"t have this problem. Even if you have anger, the anger won"t disturb you. Your inner space is filled with too many things. Actually, you don"t know how to dispose these things. That"s where the problem starts. Disposing can be done only by meditation. Meditation is like cleaning and rebooting your computer!

Q: Do you have anger? When we have anger, we may think of you, but whom will you think of if you have anger?

A: I don"t think of anyone or anything, because I don"t have a mind. Understand: I don"t have inner chatter like you have. What I say to you is what you may call my chatter. It is the only chatter, and it happens spontaneously as I am talking to you. It doesn't take any time to even form inside of me. It just comes out, that's all. In the gap that I give between my words, there is no inner chatter going on, like for you. It is difficult for you to understand unless you experience it yourself. Alright, let you have some experience of this, only then you can relate with what I am saying! For now, understand that I don't have any inner chatter. That is enough. Also, any anger that I show, is only a thread that I bring in to deal with an issue or a person. As such, the anger that I show is not the same as the anger that you display.

Q: For someone to see the future, does it mean that the future is fixed? Is it already written or decided?

A: No. It is not already decided, but the course of the future is decided based on your attachment to the past. What happens is, because you are not so intelligent to create a new future, you will reproduce only your past, altered in some way, as the future. Understand: by constantly jumping from past to future, you will corrupt and pollute your future also, just like your past. You will reproduce the same past in the future; maybe with a little alteration, nothing more. If you scratched with one hand, you might scratch with two hands…a little alteration… nothing much. You will reproduce your same nonsensical past into the future. If you don"t take the conscious decision of penetrating the present, if you don"t bring down your TPS and settle with the present, you will only reproduce the past in the future. But if you consciously take these steps, you will become intelligent enough to let the future open, and be free for you to create it.

The more your TPS, the more unconsciously you will reproduce the same past into the future. It is like this: when you decide to accept a 2 million dollar home, you accept that the next ten years you will reproduce the past into the future. When you accept the mortgage, what do you actually mean? You consciously decide to reproduce the same past into the future, am I right? In the same way, you will reproduce your past into the future in living also.

Unconsciously, you make so many decisions because of your high TPS, and so you feel that moment, your future will be open and available to you for your creativity, for you to design.

One more important thing: when you go through these steps one by one, you will understand how many decisions you made, just because of an unconsciously high TPS going on inside you. Not only that, you will see that you also complained that your future is not under your control! Actually, it is under your control. If you come down to the present moment, you can simply break the time shaft. You can simply break the cycle of your future becoming past. That is what I mean by living in eternity, living in eternal bliss. Not allowing your future becoming your past, is what I call "eternal bliss". You will wonder: how can it be done Swamiji? I tell you: when you don"t allow something called past or future in your inner space, when you are just settled in the present moment, the past will not create its footprint in your future, that"s all!

As of now, your future has become completely dirty because of your past. Because you are constantly jumping from past to future and back to past, the future is continuously getting corrupted. It is like this: in one bowl, there is cow dung, the other bowl has food. If a fly keeps flying from one bowl to the other, from the cow dung to the food and back to the cow dung, what will happen to the food? Little by little, it will start getting the flavor of the cow dung, that"s all. The very same thing you are doing to your future also. Your future is like good food waiting to be consumed. Your past, because of your past mental conditioning, is like cow dung. What do you do? You keep jumping between the two, carrying the cow dung to the fresh food.

The reason why you constantly jump is, your past is familiar to you. You feel secure when you think of the past, even if it has not been joyful. It is a familiar pattern to you. You wish your future to also be clear and familiar, without any unknown areas, and so you keep referring to your past and bringing it to your future, with a little change… here and there… that"s all. The fear of the unknown in the future, drives you to reproduce the past in the future. But just think: how much can you alter and create your future if your past is the base material out of which you are going to create your future? You might do a little tailoring here and there, that's all, nothing much. You will reproduce the same cow dung, that's all. Actually, cow dung is a decent word that I am using. In fact cow dung is sacred in Bharat. I should be using some other word!

Anyhow, just completely understand the time shaft. So many questions can be answered if you can understand the kaal chakra. The time shaft is called the kaal chakra. If you see Nataraja, the Dancing form of Shiva, you will see a big circle behind Him. This is the kaal chakra. You will see two big animals symbolically swallowing the past and the future. In the center, He will be dancing. It implies that He is dancing the grand cosmic dance in the "present moment" between the past and future.

Q: Can a human be born as an animal in the next birth?

A: Yes, you can consciously decide to be born as an animal.

Q: Why do Hindu Gods have animals as their vahanas (vehicles)?

A: It is more than just a mystical representation. In those days, human beings used only animals as their vehicles. There are many philosophical explanations that can be given here. I am giving you a simple one. In those days, human beings used animals as vehicles, and so they designed or visualized Gods also in the same way. Also, these vahanas represent the individual soul and the Gods represent the cosmic soul. So, it is a symbolic representation of the jiva - individual soul - being at the feet of the paramatma - the cosmic soul.

Q: Why does the spiritual name that you give us, require a legal name change? I take my spiritual search as personal and private, not public and legal.

A: Oh that's nice. Spiritual seeking can be something personal. In that case, there is no need to take a name. It is not necessary. And I don't say that taking a name is compulsory. It is optional. The problem is, unless it is made legal, people don"t take it sincerely and go by it. They take it lightly. It is a name given by an enlightened Master; it cannot be taken for granted. It represents your very path to enlightenment, if you take it sincerely.

Q: What is it that causes cancer? What can a person affected by it do?

A: Out of the causes for cancer, the first reason is, you not feeling completely comfortable inside your body. That is the first thing, the first reason. There are so many other reasons. For example, if your inner space is crowded with too much furniture, and you don't have place for your self, for you to be with yourself, it could lead to cancer. Or, if you are constantly haunted by your past, then your whole inner space is constantly irritated. This could also be a reason. I have spoken on cancer in detailed ways in earlier discourses. Maybe you can try to see those discourses. Even in day before yesterday's discourse, I spoke on cancer. Meditation can help you a lot, along with your medication, if you are afflicted with cancer.

Q: There is a nice question here. It says: it is said that lust is like fire. The more you try to feed it, the more it gets inflamed, like trying to put off fire by pouring ghee in it. Does the same hold true for tamas? If you feed it to the maximum, it gets exhausted or does its appetite get stronger? Please explain.

Understand; if you feed the lust unconsciously, rather if the lust gets fed by itself; only then it grows and grows and grows. It gets inflamed. But … when you feed the lust, it will never get inflamed. You feeding the lust means; now you know when to say "No," and you are saying "Yes". Then, it will never get inflamed. Same holds good for tamas. When you are saying yes to sleep, say for one month, it will never get inflamed, it will never grow. But … if tamas takes revenge on you, it is depression. You did not allow the tamas to have its role in your life. Then it puts you in depression and takes revenge on your body and mind. And lust, taking revenge on you, is restlessness. You did not give enough place for it; it just gives you so many other greeds. You see, all greed which you experience in your life, is revenge by lust. When you don't give enough place for lust, it gives you all sorts of greed, like eating, or having more and more new items; more number of cars, big house, and so many other items that drive you crazy.

If you consciously don't give enough place for tamas, it will completely depress you, and swallow your whole body and mind. You consciously giving place to lust or tamas, will never inflame them, will never increase them. But when you don't, you are not ready to give place for them, they will take revenge on you, that's all. It is all about you allowing.

That is why I tell people to, once in a while, retire from life. We should have a system; where once in three years, a person should be able to take off for one year. That should be the life, say maximum for three years only and not more than that. Then, one year off. No routine, no identity, just go somewhere and do whatever you feel like or don't do whatever you feel like, something like this. See, after all, you can waste one third of your life … nothing wrong. It"s not something so serious. After all, you have so many lives!

See, all the western religions are teaching that there is only one life. That is why the West is suffering so much. So much of suffering in the West is because these guys are teaching there is only one life. And it is not true, also. That"s a problem. I think you guys can understand. There is so much of time; eternity is there. Don't bother … just enjoy. Just enjoy! Do this once in a while if you feel like it. Otherwise, there won"t be any fun, will there?

I tell only one thing: just do not abuse your body, or waste it negatively by using it for drugs and those things. Otherwise there is nothing like, you should do this, you should do that, you have to finish all these things in this life; there is nothing like that. Just live happily, enjoy, and I can give even some methods to keep the property properly, and secure for you to come back and enjoy. If you consciously build, meaning, if you feel connected consciously, clearly make a map, and meditate on it, and put it in your mind with a clear suggestion. When you come back, all those property owners will be just waiting to hand it over to you.

That"s what happened in our ashram. You guys can be shocked if you all know that we have ashrams all created in four years. You will be shocked as to how it can be! When I came back to Bangalore; simply the owner had the vision of a young Swami named THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM will come, and that he has to hand over this land. He was searching. He came and handed over. Now, I don't know how many crores (millions) that property is worth. Simply he came and handed over.

All you need to do is consciously make a sankalpa, "this is my property, I am leaving now, I'll come back and enjoy". You see, you may all think, "O! I am telling some stories. But this is what happened in my life. Simply I came back and these guys were waiting like trustees. The moment I came back, they handed over and went away. And don't even for a moment think that, only in an enlightened Master's case, these things will happen, and in your case it won't happen. No … not at all. To keep the property and all, you don't need enlightenment. No, I am really telling you, for that and all, you don't need enlightenment. Simply a little bit of your mind and clarity is more than enough. A clear sankalpa is more than enough. For that, you don't need enlightenment. Enlightenment is far more worthy.

So, just create a strong sankalpa, "these are all mine. I'm leaving now, and going, and when I come back, it has to be handed over to me". And you might think, "what is this Master, it all looks very funny". It may look funny, but this is what we call attracting the abundance, the shree or the lakshmi. Shree means the energy which flows towards the bliss. In Sanskrit, shree is the energy which flows towards bliss or the truth, or consciousness. So actually, you can create some property and tell, "now, I"m leaving all these things and going. But, I'll come back and enjoy". You will see that when you come back, properly and sincerely, the people hand over the property to you and go away.

People who are sitting on it will be like trustees! And you should also respect them, because they are taking care of it in your absence. All this may look too mystical. But, when you see in life, you will see all these things happening. That"s the way I told at a couple of places; "we will have land in Chennai near the airport only". We were about to land; the aircraft was landing in Chennai, and I got up and said, "we are going to have an ashram. Just now I saw. The land is here. We will have an ashram". Within a few months, one devotee came and offered this land which was just near the airport. Maybe, when I said, we were flying exactly over that property. I saw below that the ashram is there, and that we are going to have to get ready.

I told one of our brahmachari, "You should be the spiritual head, so start your training". See … don't think it is some magic, or a miracle. It is simple intelligence, which is not very difficult. You see, when you are honest with your thoughts or honest with your sankalpa, you will have a clear memory of your past life and everything else. ```

When I say honest: don't bow down unless you feel the respect. Don't smile unless you feel the love. Take all these things as honest things. Don't smile at somebody having some calculation in mind. Only if you feel that you have some love for that person, maybe for some reason … any reason it may be. Sometimes, when you see a person beautiful or handsome, you feel like having a little love. If you have some reason, any reason to smile; smile. If you have some love, smile. If you feel you don't have love, don't smile for mere social reasons. That'll be ugly. A plastered smile is always ugly.

The same way with anger also. When you have anger … show. Don't show it keeping in mind, that this guy can be exploited easily, or, "Oh! This guy can't do anything. Let me shout". I have seen these guys here. If small accidents happen on the roadside, if some old person is sitting in that car, these guys, these young fellows come out and shout. And if they see a big guy, they just keep quiet!

A small story:

One guy came out of a restaurant. He saw his car, which he had parked outside and went inside, angered since so much of paint was poured on it. He came inside the restaurant and shouted, 'Who is the fellow who poured paint on my car?'

One big, strong guy got up, and said, 'Yes, I did it. What do you want now?'

'No, no, the first coat is over. You can come and do the second coat. First coat has dried. I just want to inform you now, that you can do the second coat.'

See … that is what we do with our anger also. When we see, we see the guy, and play accordingly with our anger. Just be honest with your ideas.

See, one more thing, the Yoga Sutras clearly say; if you are honest with your thought flow, you will have a very clear memory of your past life and everything. The reason you are not able to remember your past is because of this simple reason. You see in your own life; if you are very clear in your thought trend, you'll be able to remember the incidents that happened when you were five or six years of age. If your thought trend is too confused, you will not be able to remember, even what you ate yesterday. That"s the truth. Just keeping the thought trend clearly, means the honesty. Do only what you feel, and nothing else. Then, so much can be done.

The problem is; in society, you have to do only what pays you. Just with this one idea of currency, these politicians have destroyed humanity. By just this one concept of currency, much destruction has happened. Otherwise, we have plenty; we have enough.

The other day, I was reading a nice article. Actually, in one of the states of the USA, Texas, you can accommodate the whole population. There was a nice article and the whole world can be kept for free; the whole world can come, and we can accommodate the whole population in Texas, in just this one state. I was reading further that if you build homes and develop that one state perfectly, completely; you can accommodate the whole world. So much is there. If one country's one state can accommodate, then so much of land is there. You can use it for many purposes.

So much can be done in fact. One of the main problems is these politicians" ego. And just by this currency concept, the whole thing is gone. The whole thing has gone. Another reason is this; so to say, this concept of "legal heritage", legally inheriting the property. That's another one concept which was responsible for this whole nonsense, this whole thing. Otherwise, see … hardly we have six billion people. We can easily feed and give clothes, give medical care, and literally everything. But we are so influenced, and we have so many of ideas in our head; nonsensically spending all our money in war and army... What to do?!!

I feel that if all these things are taught to youngsters; and if they fight with themselves and throw all the violence out, they will not throw it on other countries. Anyhow, that's why Bharat never invaded any other country. They went out only once to one country, Indonesia. That also, they did not invade, they created a city, and lived with the people who lived on that island. They never killed anybody, never invaded any country; never went out to conquer any country. They went only to one country, Indonesia, and to another country, that is, to Cambodia, also, they went. To Cambodia they went, and built a huge temple, which occupies ninety square miles; the world's biggest spiritual structure, the world's biggest religious structure. Even when they went, they did not kill people; they did not fight. They went and built temples.

I was wondering as to whether these guys didn"t have enough place in Bharat, and went all the way there to stay. And not just that, the fun part is, the island doesn't have a single stone. They don't have a single piece of stone. The whole thing was carved in Bharat, shipped and assembled. Even if they go to some place, they only build temples and contribute, because they have nothing else to do. They know only that one thing, so that's what they do, that's all. A huge Shiva temple is built. I was shocked when I saw it. See, with that one temple, Angkor Vat temple, is all Hindu temples. God, I was always proud that my native place is the biggest temple. But when I saw this Angkor Vat, my temple is like one of these American homes, small.

These homes are very small when we compare to some of the houses in Bharat. If you go to the Hindu … South Hindu villages, especially the Chettinad area, each home will be up to 2 lakh square feet. I know a home which has got 1000 windows; it is called "the 1000 window house".

People feel very happy if I sit and tell some stories, and say to me, that we can continue doing just this. And that is why these guys put so many questions, also. They start feeling, "let him talk and tell some stories; we shall just sit and listen. Nothing else is required. Why unnecessarily doing meditation and all". Actually if you sit and listen to the stories and jokes, you'll enjoy me now. But if you do the meditation also, you'll enjoy me forever! You'll enjoy the presence, or this feeling forever.
