Sām Sām Sām Sām Sām Sām Sām Sām The last is just a song.

It is for the one who has reached the witness consciousness.

So I won't sing it.

I'll just read it out to you.

Aari Gagan Ma Jyoth Jalan Thea Eno Akhand Bhayojwalo In this space of limitlessness,

In this ocean of consciousness,

A light is shining.

Eno Akhand Bhayojwalo Its light radiates in all directions,

Undividedly.

Akhand,

Undividedly.

Yeah?

Till the end of the universe,

If there is an end or no end,

It keeps extending,

Keeps radiating.

Maharo Ram Rame Rangararo Hari My Ram and Hari play right here in many colours.

Yes?

There is no Ram and Hari outside.

Yeah?

No gods,

No idols outside.

It is here inside.

Maharo Prabhu Rame Che Nirdharo My god plays right here,

Without a support.

Nirdharo,

Without a support.

Again,

Stand alone.

Stand alone.

Aari Gagan Ma Bajee Baja An instrument plays in this space of limitlessness.

Jino Jino Ajankaro It has a very subtle sound.

Yes?

He is talking about what?

The sound of the creation.

Yes?

Kahat Kabir Suno Bhai Sadhu Says Kabir,

Listen O Seeker.

El da,

Angadhiya teerath kone bharayo Such a difficult pilgrimage place,

Which is so hard to reach.

Who has attained it?

Who?

Who?

Sincerely hope and wish and I send this blessing out to each one of you.

May you taste this.

May you hear the Jino Jino Ajankaro.

May you taste this nectar.

May you experience this Akhand Ujwalo,

This limitless light.

May you reach that tough pilgrimage place,

That hard to reach pilgrimage place.

Lots of love to each one of you.

Lots of blessings to each one of you.

May you all get there in this very lifetime,

This very lifetime.

We don't know about other lifetimes.

That is also a belief.

Let's not get there.

This is what I have.

I have to do it now.

Yes?

And I am right by your sign.

Just one email away.

Always there for a sincere spiritual seeker.

But if you do quickly,

Quickly,

Become spiritually independent.

Quickly,

Quickly.

Okay.

Any questions?

On the path of Kabir,

He has explained four rams.

The Ram which is the Shraddh Kabeeta,

Lord Rama,

The idol.

The second Ram is the one that is in every pot,

Ghat Ghat.

The third Ram is the one that is in this creation.

It's the same consciousness,

The same awareness that the people who have reached that step in Advaita can experience it.

And the fourth Ram,

The transcendental,

That cannot even be put in words.

That which is this entire bubble that I explained.

That is the transcendental that cannot be explained in words.

That is what we were talking about.

That which is beyond the form and which is beyond the formless.

If you say formless,

It means your mind has captured it.

Your mind has understood it.

Your intellect has put a definition to it.

It's not possible.

It is beyond the mind and beyond the intellect.

One can only be that.

One cannot see that.

The journey within the void.

There are two legs of the journey.

The first leg is coming to this witness consciousness.

The second journey begins within the witness consciousness.

I gave you the first tip,

Learning to stand alone.

I also told you what will keep happening.

The Sagunt will keep dancing in front of the Nirgun.

You will keep observing this.

Slowly a distance will start developing because of you learning to stand alone.

The distance will reduce the power of the mind and you will just be.

Just be.

Just be.

When you are just being and then you are the consciousness.

There is no other.

You are Brahman.

You have not become Brahman.

You have not become consciousness.

You have realized that I was consciousness.

I just didn't see it before.

Tat Tvam Asi.

You are that.

Aham Brahmasmi.

I am Brahman.

Pragnya Brahman.

This awareness,

This witnessing.

That is the Brahman.

I am Brahman.

There is nothing else outside of Brahman.

This becomes your reality.

You know it.

Then how you see a dream in the night and it's a dream.

You don't take it seriously when you wake up.

Similarly,

Waking state becomes equivalent to a dream.

Then you are not taking anything that happens here too seriously.

It's all a play.

Now do you understand how the higher bird,

The guru is only playing and the lower bird is the one that is busy consuming?

Now you experientially are there.

And this is not very tough.

Okay.

You don't need to go to ten pilgrimages,

Bow down your head in front of ten great gurus and spend thousands of dollars in laddus and coconuts and flowers and I don't know what what.

Or do a million poojas of the god or the guru or anything.

No no no no.

In fact you have to drop all this.

Stand alone.

Come within.

Just be.

You get there.

Turath mil jaon.

Turath mil jaon.

I will.

I will.

Turath.

Turanth.

In a moment.

There is no perfect translation of certain words.

Turanth.

In a jiffy.

In a moment.

In the blink of an eye you can find me.

I am there.

Most important thing.

The likes and the dislikes that pull me away from this truth.

Yes.

Those are the things that I have to deal with.

When this starts weakening then you have,

You become superman.

Spiritual superman huh?

Not.

Hope I answered that question.

Everything.

You have to stand alone.

Stand alone in every way.

Physically,

Mentally,

Spiritually,

Material world.

You already explained na?

Kar guzard an fakiri mein sadhu bhai.

Maghru ri kyun kar tha hai.

Yeah.

Fakir.

Even if you have a billion dollar estate.

All your assets are billion dollars.

Still inside you should be clear.

Nothing is mine.

Nothing.

No money.

No relationships.

No friends.

No guru.

No mother.

No father.

We did that also na?

Last week I think we did.

Your mother is a lie.

Your father is a lie.

Your family is a lie.

You remember that.

Yeah.

That was so wonderful.

I love those bhajans of his.

Dhaad.

Dhaad.

He is like straightening us up.

Everything.

You have to drop everything.

Every single conditioning.

Every single belief.

Stand alone.

Stand naked.

That's the only way you are getting there.

Otherwise forget about it.

Forget about it.

And there are many many such bhajans.

I can continue doing Kabir for 10 years.

There are so many Dohas.

Yeah.

There are so many.

He keeps talking about dropping conditioning.

Dropping.

Because see he is right in the middle of Banaras.

So much spiritual industry.

So he is seeing it like first hand.

Those people must be coming to him also.

Not to sell.

Yeah.

So spiritual industry is a very vivid colourful industry.

Yeah.

It attracts me.

There also that conditioning also I have to drop.

Stand alone.

Stand alone.

Become a lion.

Enough of being a Gidar and following.

Enough.

Stand alone.

Be a lion.

Be a swan.

Fly alone.

During Kabir's life,

Kabir Panth was not started.

Yes.

During Buddha's life,

Buddhism was not started.

They did not want to start isms and puns and organisations.

They did not believe in control.

They did not believe in money and grasping.

Because again that is coming down from the level of the witness consciousness coming down to the mind.

Yes.

So whatever we see now happened after they passed away.

The different sections of Buddhism,

Theravada,

Mahayana,

Tibetan Buddhism,

All that happened after Buddha.

Yeah.

Same thing for Kabir.

There is a Kabir Panth.

It's in the villages,

In the rural areas.

But that also happened after Kabir.

Not during his lifetime.

Yeah.

And it's just these folk singers who got very popular.

After they started becoming the gurus of the Kabir Panth.

Yeah.

And still there are people within the Kabir Panth who say that we shouldn't be having this kind of a panth.

Because Kabir did not want it.

And the others are like,

No it's just for promoting the folk songs and you know all those kind of political things have come up.

So if you do visit all these rural areas,

You will find something like a Kabir Panth.

But remember Kabir did not start it.

Yeah.

That is why we go to the original teachings always.

Then when I teach you Buddha,

I only teach you the original teachings.

Not Tibetan,

Not Theravada,

Not Mahayana,

No sing songs,

No chants,

No mantras.

Because these were not promoted by Buddha.

Similarly,

They were not promoted by Kabir.

So we go down to the original teachings and recognise the witness consciousness.

Only core teachings.

Clear?

You'll have to come for a one on one.

So I understand exactly what meditation you are doing.

Like I explained,

There are different types of meditations.

Meditations for the mind is where the mind is focusing on a physical object.

Sound is a physical object.

Breath is a physical object.

Mind is focusing on an object.

Then obviously if you are lost in your thoughts,

Then you have to come back to your object.

Yeah.

But we are not talking at that level.

Remember,

We are in a post graduation class.

We are one level higher.

Witness is the one recognising that the mind is focusing on the object.

So when we are in Advaita level,

We are discarding the lower levels and making an attempt to stay in the witness.

Yes.

So if you come for a one on one,

Just schedule one online,

You can send an email and schedule one.

Only for spiritual questions.

I'm not a psychotherapist.

Very clearly.

I'm not your psychological counsellor.

I'm not your psychotherapist.

I'm not your friend.

I'm not your enemy.

I am here as a spiritual GPS to take you to only one destination.

Destination witness consciousness.

Destination Sakshi Bhav.

Yeah.

Anything you ask me about the world,

I'm going to say I'm not interested in the world.

Destination Sakshi Bhav.

You'll say,

Oh,

This you told me already in the session.

Destination Sakshi Bhav.

Repeat.

Million times.

That's what is going to happen in the one on one.

So if you're expecting psychotherapy.

Alert.

That's your wish.

If that works for you.

I was given an opportunity on a plate to monetise Gyanasanga.

For me,

No.

You would be paying for this session if I had taken that opportunity.

No.

For me,

Oneness was bigger than money.

You choose your path.

You don't have to believe Ekta.

You look within.

Yeah.

There are certain likes and dislikes that we have to go beyond.

We have to go beyond.

For me,

You reaching that oneness.

Wow.

That is it.

I am lonely in that land.

I will have a friend.

Come,

Come to my land of awareness.

Come to my land of witness consciousness.

I am lonely here.

I will talk about that with you.

I am not interested in this material world.

I am not interested in this mind.

So you keep your material world in your pocket.

If you can reach that witness consciousness,

Come.

We can sit.

Come nesamne.

Face to face and have a conversation.

That's all I am interested in.

Yeah.

Sadhu bhuka bhavaka dhan ka bhuka nahi.

Dhan ka bhuka jo ho soto sadhu nahi.

Come,

Come to my land.

Come to my land.

Come.

Come.
