Question will definitely get covered it will definitely be considered uh just just keep watching the and attend all the uh episodes of Mystic mentoring I'll not take much time and I'll not um keep you uh holding from Ani here I'll just explain the format quickly so the format

Language because we have uh friends joining us from all over the world so we have covered we tried to cover them in both these languages and the answers of um English question will be given by anishi in English language only or Hindi question answer so I will now request an and I'll
Invite him request him to join us and I'll request everybody to please take full advantage of this this time and uh keep yourself away from all sorts of distractions and just be here thank you Namaste everybody Namaste so good to see you uh a warm welcome we are together once again yeah
And um there's a there's a bit of a unpredictable storm in the uh mountains today so if the internet um behaves little uh differently so just stay put uh we have multiple connection but it takes a bit to switch over from one to another yeah so S's my audio video clear
So far yes Anish yes perfect all right so yeah please let's start G I'm just sharing my screen with the first question so anishi uh the first question is anonymous and the sadak is asking dear Shri Anish G living alone in a house after the death of his spouse that
Was buzzing at one point in time it is difficult possibly human life has been designed like this please share your thoughts on the same yeah well first of all uh losing anybody who's part of your life the loved one with whom you've spent significant amount of your life and
Precious moments of your life losing somebody like that uh is not an easy experience to go through it takes a while to uh I don't even know if one can fully recover from that yeah uh the grief uh and the vacuum stays for a very long
Time so the first thing here is uh it's all right to experience that grief and uh it is important to accept that reality that somebody very close to us has just left gone to the other and we are feeling a certain vacuum so that's first level of understanding and acceptance having said
That is life designed like that yes and no both you see we we are conditioned by our habits by by a certain way of repetitive living and in that whole process we are always engrossed and absorbed with our little understanding of life we never question the existential
Questions never come to us even if they come we try our best to a distract ourself or B put the questions under the carpet we just don't want to face them we don't want to investigate on them that's the reason I said yes life is designed that way any
Dukka any trouble any suffering that comes to our life it's knocking on the door to be able to see that there's something Beyond this there's something beyond our current level of attachment our current level of looking at life there's something beyond that it's an opportunity especially I've
I've said it many times in various somebody close to you leaving you it's a great opportunity it's of course a great grief and pain but it is also a great opportunity because somehow a window opens because whatever you considered as normal as structured way of life is all
Shattered when there's a profound change a certain window to the truth is opened up I think that's how life is designed to be able to allow us to look into that window because the normal has broken the standard way of leading day-to-day life is gone something profoundly has changed
There's some new window which has opened we must take full advantage of that look into that try and look what lies Beyond this is this what life is all about the definitions that that we have given to ourselves the formats that we have given to ourselves is that what life is all
About or there something Beyond it in this whole process I think there's a great problem or a or an absolutely wrong way we are all leading our lives and now I'm saying no life is not really designed that way to experience such grief maybe life was Des designed in a
Different way but we've created this design what do I mean by that you know so far we all live our life thinking that these two people these five people are part of my life part of my family and that's my world is that so is that so is that your world
Only people around across the globe there are over 8 billion people on Earth how can I just call these five people six people three people as part of my world part of my family because in India we've never considered that in India we've we've always considered larger Community as part of our
Liv now if you see quantum physics I was reading the other day I think the great scientist called shringer now he's also made the theory saying that every particle of um of matter is connected with every other particle of matter they communicate with each other there's a deep interconnected
Between the matter which is here and the matter which is thousands of kilometers away One impact in this this particle impacts that particle too at the theory level it has been proved but in India our Ries have been saying that for a very long time your
Family your loved ones is just not these 3 four five that's a wrong investment that's a very myopic view of looking at life and relations and love why can't I open up why can't I embrace many many many people and beings as part of my life as part of my family
Why can't I just open my heart and and include everybody as as part of me why do I just consider these few people as part of me and I think that's where we've designed it wrongly I I believe we were not designed to live in a in small houses with just
Three people as our family we were not designed that way we're very social people we social beings as human beings we are designed to connect with larger people with larger communities we're designed to live in communities we're designed to pour our love on every being that we come across we are
Designed to be inclusive since we are not doing that the grief of such moment becomes too profound to be able to handle but nevertheless now is the time can I not restructure my life now I can can I not now open my heart and and start to include everybody as part of my
Life as part of my family can I not now go out there share spend invest my life with people out there can I not do that what's stopping me what's stopping me and still making me caged in in these four walls where I feel certain abundance I think it's time to a
Expand your perception of family B which is very important it is also the time to start to question investigate meditate on is there something in us that is never born never died in Hindi we call it is there anything in me which is beyond life and death is my reality only this
Body which goes after certain years this mind which goes after certain years or there's something in me there's something in everybody that lives on that is never born that is never died is there something in me like that is there a deep different reality of my existence because our ancient rishis and
Chastras are saying yes there is they're claiming Masters have experiences saying that what you consider life the paba which is made of five elements is not the entire truth yes that too is truth this five made out of five elements it is the truth yes but it is not the absolute truth it
Is part reality part reality is hiding beyond Behind these five elements and that part reality is never born is never died and our purpose on Earth our opportunity to have this human Incarnation is to pursue that is to search for that is to create a meditative inward journey to somehow find
That people have found it gurun nanak found it Buddha found it all the great Ries Masters found it which means this reality exist and it is not that people who were 5,000 years ago 2,000 years ago only those people found no every era every age every geographical location has
People who are enlightened who are awake awake to what awake to this truth and this reality of life that I'm just not this yes I am this also but I'm just not this and there's a there's an opportunity I can choose to be engaged with the constantly changing reality
Which I call the outside world which is constantly changing every particle of matter constantly changing I have a choice to either be focused on that attached with that engaged with that but then that is is a recipe for dukka because it keeps changing as Buddha said the law of
Impermanence nothing here is permanent nothing but then I also have a choice to focus on to pursue that which is permanent there is something that is permanent we can call it by Divine names by soul but there is a truth that's a living reality there is something in us
Which is always there never born Never Dies and always awake and always watching always available you can call it Chana also Consciousness there are many names given to this but that is an inquiry worth pursuing because I believe there's no point living life with half the truth
Half the reality because then it's very Miss leading then it's very illusionary half truths are very illusionary it's an opportunity we still alive we still have time we still have means to pursue that and anybody who pursue that is beyond all Sorrows that does not mean if if
Somebody's loved one goes if but Buddha's love one goes Buddha will not feel the suffering or the pain or the grief Buddha too will feel that but in a very different way because at the deeper level he knows that only the outer kosha outer sheath has gone the inner truth
Remains and that's what we we must use this opportunity to knock on that door in our own Consciousness and try to pursue that so I gave you two things a this to pursue that truth B I said open your heart 8 billion people shouldn't they all be my friends
Shouldn't they all be my loved ones is life different in them than me it's the same life which is vibrating in each one of you right now which is also vibrating in me it's the same life we are made up of at that level should not I shouldn't
I connect with all of them shouldn't I drop the boundaries of my mental frames saying that this is my immediate family it's time to drop the boundaries break the frames and open the heart live in a very expanded way it's just not a discourse or a philosophy it is a living reality
The day you make a choice to step out of this out of your current reality you will be able to see live and realize that expanded abundant reality it is possible there are people who are living this it is possible so it's my wish and pray that
You too start to walk on this inquiry it is doable it is achievable it is within our reach it's not something of the other world we are talking about it's right now in this world here you focus on this it starts to become your reality yeah worth
Pursuing yeah I hope it helps thank you thank you anishi to our second question this is from Bender G from dhamala he's asking is it okay to change your spiritual Guru how can the Seeker know that their spiritual journey is not progressing wa I think good question this is many times I've seen
That our mind uses wrong language and with the wrong language we frame the wrong question and the whole Direction goes out what do I mean by this the question is is it okay to change one's Guru change as if it's a commodity we are talking about it's a profound relation you can
Never change that you can never change that add you can add that see this is how mind thinks either or either this Guru or that Guru mind doesn't know doesn't think addition combinations joining togetherness mind doesn't know that where in Indian scripture where have we ever written that you can just
Have only one Guru and not add another Guru there where have we written no there are proofs there are examples I've often quoted the story of uh uh the great Guru data he had 24 gurus 24 gurus no conflict in the mind because he was not talking about
Replacement the moment you talk about replacing one with the other there's a conflict there's a guilt in you then you're talking about replacement you're talking about changing you're not talking about adding you're not talking about inclusive are you understanding what I'm saying yes change can only be considered
In a case where maybe you were with somebody some teacher some Guru who uh who took you for a ride for an example that's when we talk about change even then my personal opinion is it's not change because from that also you've learned something isn't it from that we
Often say in the ashram that if you are a true Seeker you can learn from a thief also forget about the guru depends are you a true Seeker so even if a guru has taken you for a ride a teacher has taken for taken you
For a ride he or she has still added some value at least now you know what trap not to fall on what trap not to fall for right you've learned something and if you've learned something there must be some gratitude of that from whom you've learned something yeah but those situations and those
Events are rare when somebody takes you for a ride very rare there are people who are honest look for that there are teachers who are very selfless look for that and when that happens there's not nothing about changing it's only about adding one flavor you know how we cook
Meal in India we know that right we had one flavor then we had another flavor then we had another flavor and that's that's how the dish becomes supremely rich it caters to every taste bud of our being isn't it that's to me is spiritual journey all about it's not eating the
Bland food alone that has its own benefit will not go into that but it's about it's about adding a lot of rasas lot of perspective and that's how you become rich now let's say like Guru datat also have 24 gurus how do you now deal with that deep gratitude for each one of
Them deep affiliation with each one of them deep connect with one with each one of them however now there's an interesting point here out of all the teachers Masters that you have in your life or you will have in your life there'll be one who will be always Supreme the main
One the the main anchor that main anchor will always be one let me give you an example I'm a Shiva Bak I'm a I'm just in deep love with Shiva but at the same time in the ashram we also have Hanuman we pray to Hanuman G I feel deep connection with
Hanuman G also we also have ganapati G no conflict we also have Krishna G no conflict and we also have Davi we also have Mas sarasti there no conflict however in this galaxy of of dasas and Davies for me one is the main anchor the Supreme I call him
Shiva right so even if you have multiple teachers or Guru especially the gurus teacher is a different phenomena you must always have or you will always have one the Supreme one with whom you're almost you're sold you're a slave to that you're sold to that it's like that
In a ma in a manner of saying but there are other teachers and Masters also from whom you you learn different aspects of life so there is no conflict yeah understand this this every day I meet somebody who's going through this conflict every day yeah must not be a
Conflict spiritual journey is about learning evolving and continuously being in gratitude above that's what this journey is all about yeah so that's one I think the the other part of the question was how do we how do we know if we are progressing on the spiritual journey something like that yes
Yes see there the parameters are very simple not complex at all what are the parameters what is the content of your thought most of the time one parameter is the content of your thought about the matters of attachment and possessions or the content of your thoughts is mostly about sharing giving and loving
Expanding do you feel in your heart contraction or do you feel in your heart expansion when you meet somebody even unknown person on the on the street does your mind thinks more in terms of judgment or in terms of just being accepting the person as he or she
Is or does your heart feel a certain uh level of love and compassion for anybody who whom you meet across the road yeah these are the parameters these are the parameters most of the time are you you in conflicting zone of mind or most of the time is your heart
Very clear what to choose what to do you're very clear now all of these are indications as you progress more deeply into the sadhana you start to become my friend very clear about life every small thing about life you start to become very clear crystal clear your sleep becomes
Sacred your eating food becomes sacred you're talking to somebody become sacred and whatever you're doing wherever you are you are very 100% there you're not distracted being anymore you're very Consolidated you are just there if you're listening to this dialogue this this satsung you're just here you're not
Allowing your mind to get into Rights and Wrongs right now you're just here receiving this these are the indicators these are the internal indicators another thing you will start to focus is that your relationships will start to improve with almost everybody even people whom earlier you
Did not like or you hated or you had some strong opinions even there the strong opinions will start to blur themselves out it it will all start to blur dissolve the boundaries that we have put across put around ourselves I am this you are that these boundaries will start to
Dissolve these are all the indicators my friend and yogic indicator I'm giving you a yogic indicator your speech will start to become much more finer less harsh more loving more like this there'll be a sweetness to your tone that's a yogic signal your speech will start to become
Sweet the quality of your sleep will start to change you will need to sleep less now yeah these are external indicators I gave you internal indicators now I'm giving you external indicators your relationship with the food will start to change you will not let not you will not
Be able to just you know stuff yourself anymore there'll be a uh what is the word there'll be a rhythm even when you eating food there'll be a rhythm to that these are all the indicators yeah and interestingly you can't fool yourself you can't put a mask and live
Like that for long you can do it it uh 1 hour a day but you can't do it 24 by 7 and moreover you can never lie to your own self yeah so you know your own reality yeah so these are some of the indicators there
Are we can talk about an hour and I can still keep giving you indicators but I've just given you some hints if you actually rewind this this part of the video and listen to that make a note of it these are some very profound indicators they'll change your life at least you
Will know where you stand are you progressing are you digressing you will know that for sure yeah I I hope that helps and if you ever get confused on this then you know you you in dham Shala I don't think I've ever met you but you
Come to the asham and then we'll deep di deep dip into into this yeah hope it helps thank you thank you GTI ANM sectioner or stagnation point is is period career or sad Fight they keep fighting with each other Or be behav just to for stag Houser responsib householders but Guru ex s teaching station Perfect perfect decide perf Adat unknown Unknown For Remebrance As Sh ROV Conru Construction renovation ROV confusion confusion name sham Sund the beauty Construction cons boundaries Mar stagnation or one step at a time Focus Guru in dissolve you will experience that you will experience that yes with that I hope GTI um um I think um we should stop here not take more questions we'll leave it for the next session but a few things I would want to say before we end this this
Satsung I think we've lived and experienced a lot in life all of us put together we're only trying to scratch the surface of understanding of life we're trying to understand life from the external factors external chupas that's not what life is all about every experience of this life that you
Have every simple experience of even eating food right now even seeing me as an experience hearing me as an experience all of these experiences are happening inside of you if you're feeling peaceful and joyful In This Moment it's all is happening inside of you nothing is happening outside of you this whole
Truth this whole mystery of Truth and Awakening is inside you but we too attached too engrossed too entangled in the outside play play is good play is important play is beautiful but it is an external Ever Changing play ever changing you will not be able to C catch hold of it nothing
You'll not be able to catch hold of your wealth your name your Fame your relations you not be able to catch hold of anything because that's the SW that's the structure of life everything is in transition every moment of time only one thing that is not in
Transition that will be there that was there that is there and that's your inner Consciousness your chat yourself even when you in deep Sleep there's something in you which is always awake that does not sleep when you wake up in the morning that self tells you that you had a great deep
Sleep you slept like a baby that inner self is always awake that self declares in the morning that you slept like a baby that is what who you are and it's inner we have to Journey inward we have to talk to ourselves we have to start to love
Ourselves we have to start to spend time with ourselves we have to stop and dissolve and drop all our fears nobody's is capable enough of taking anything away from you that which is not yours will be taken away and that which is yours nobody can take death away from
You nobody we all came empty-handed that's how we going to go from this life what are we trying to hold on to yeah make love and joyfulness your choice let me repeat let love be your choice in every situation let sharing and joyfulness be your choice in every moment you have
Abundant it will never empty you it will always fulfill you more fulfill you yeah make that your choice every day every moment every event let that be the front of who you are yeah and then see the magic unfolding I'm calling it magic when you choose this the magic
Unfolds when you choose not this the magic remains hidden in deep Your Heart It never opens up yeah make it its Choice I'm there to support I'm there to guide I'm there to hold your hand but you will have to make this Choice yeah with that um
Um we all entering into the deep profound Shiva mode U as the days are coming as the 8th of March coming closure uh there's a mystical sh sha energy which is engulfing us every day uh the profundity is increasing um we will not be able to
