Welcome everybody to our Sunday Kids program.
I'm very happy to see all of you visiting in our center.
So this is like we are here.
From the world,
People go to different spiritual societies,
Spiritual organizations.
Why do people go there?
To realize God.
Make sense?
Why do people go there?
Because they want to realize God.
Right?
Yes or no?
Yes.
Yeah,
This is why people go there.
Are you ready to get God realization?
Okay.
So let's talk about that.
When it comes to releasing volume.
We hear different statements from different spiritual leaders.
Some say they will quote Upanishad.
That you cannot even reach God.
God is already found.
And to describe God in a way It doesn't matter what form,
Neither we can reach him.
You can just feel his energy.
It will speak like this.
No need of long effect.
Effective God is there.
And God wants us to He lays in.
Come in contact with Him.
That is why God exists.
So.
.
.
Yes,
It does mention in Upanishad that God cannot be approached by any ordinary human being.
What?
Because in this world We are all dealing with matter.
Our body is composed of material elements.
If you try to understand the composition of this material body,
According to Sankhya philosophy.
There are 25 elements are there in this body.
Which are all material elements.
But God is not material,
He is transcendental,
Means he is beyond matter.
Oh God!
There is no combination of matter and spirit.
Everything is spirit.
Beyond matter.
So now.
Second more understandable statement that how can you realize spirit with matter,
With the help of matter.
Yes,
This is the statement of the study also.
God who is beyond this material world we cannot approach him by our or our material condition.
This is a fact.
The next question comes,
If God cannot be realized,
Individuals who are having a material body,
Who are having all material assets,
Facilities with them,
Why does all this scripture exist,
Why so many different types of religious groups,
They promote about spiritual life.
It's a big question,
Right?
That means there is a way how we can connect with him.
Even though we are immigrant.
With material facilities.
So,
Before we understand how We can approach God,
We can realize God.
We will speak about the first step of God's enlightenment.
In today's topic again.
Fast step of modularization.
So before we enter there,
How many people living in this country are qualified to meet Maybe some are very close,
Working in a ministry,
Near him,
They have access to him.
But general people like us.
.
.
Impossible.
We can't.
But imagine if one day decides He wants to make himself available to us in the place where we are living in our local estate in a very easy way.
Is it easy to connect with them?
Yes,
He is making himself available now to the surrounding that we are living in the place.
He is coming there,
So it's very easy.
If he desires.
Make sense?
Even though he is seeds in the well.
Why doubt?
Nobody will access there.
It is a restricted area beyond our reach.
But if he is coming down to our place you can connect with Him.
Similarly,
The first step of God realization is Even the God is beyond matter.
He is Spirit.
But.
.
.
He had expanded himself.
Into the matter through which we can easily approach.
We can realize him for better.
That Krishna has explained very clearly in Bhagavad Gita itself.
That's why Bhagavad Gita is a universally read book.
Skin check.
And anyone who has studied this knowledge under the guidance of a bona fide guru,
He can understand this.
What is the first step of God Realization according to Bhagavad Gita.
Means as I said we have material body,
The first thing is how we can experience God with this material body,
The material facility.
That is the first step of God Realization Krishna is taking in Bhagavad Gita.
Krishna says,
He says I am test environment.
Every day we are drinking water.
When you feel thirsty,
It's very important.
It's very easy to realize God even while drinking water.
Oh Krishna,
You are so merciful.
You are the test in water.
As I drink,
You will help me to mince my thirst.
This is the very easiest way,
The first step we can say.
Of God Realization.
Is it that difficult?
You get a glass of water,
The friend gives you and you say thank you.
He is not doing anything.
He is just offering a glass of water to you.
He is the one who is the taste in water and when you drink water,
He is the one who is the frequency in your thirst.
With your material body been something which is also metal,
Must be,
But there is some connection with Krishna.
And easy.
The reason is gone.
Another example.
Krishna.
In Mexico.
Everybody in this world,
They want to enjoy their life.
Whether he is a Karmi,
He is a devotee,
I have got very nice amount of enjoyment.
By the way,
Who needs enjoyment when I say you should not get confused?
For example,
We eat.
There is an enjoyment for the body.
Yes,
That's an enjoyment for the body.
Without supplying that enjoyment to the body,
We cannot survive.
That's a fun-looking diamond horse that we have.
So now the bottom line is everybody this enjoyment to survive in this world.
Now you see how Krishna is facilitating the enjoyment to everyone.
Let's take another example.
We said we can approach Krishna,
We can realize Krishna.
Through this method.
Because he is making himself available to us in that way,
How he can easily connect with him.
When you eat.
Or food,
Whatever you may say,
According to your choice.
Understanding.
What do you do to get your food digested?
You don't know anything.
You're just wrong.
That's it.
That's what you do.
So Now the next question is.
Imagine you eat You got a beer?
That the meal is not getting digested.
What is next?
You have to watch that.
You don't know what to do,
Your life is terrible.
Just one thing you see.
The greatest of great materialist which always force us to education Without his food getting digested,
Can he enjoy his life?
But I'm not going to do that.
You need four types of foodstuffs.
Some you choose,
Some you bring,
Some you don't.
So like that.
Persona is actually helping us how you can enjoy your life.
Now everybody is enjoying life because Krishna is facilitating that.
Another example.
I will leave you.
When you go to sea.
At night.
Do you remember whatever is happening during that time with you?
Huh?
Norm!
If you remember,
You can all sleep.
Makes sense?
Yeah,
You know,
Your mind is going,
That's why sometimes people have to take,
You know,
Pills,
Because there's so many things happening,
It's forcing you to sleep.
And the wheel to the slip is not a very good thing in physics.
Why people take pill?
Because the mind is always thinking about something.
It is not able to get rest.
Please don't forget anything.
And a person does not sleep for few nights,
What will happen?
Can we continue?
You broke it crazy!
That's what I was saying.
Matta Smriti Dhyanam Akohanam Satyam It's not a beautiful thing.
How could she?
Krishna has come down to our level.
To help us connect with him in our life.
The reason of life.
When you go to sleep,
He is withdrawing that memory from you.
Is making you forget.
So that you can Good night sleep.
And then It is not only taking away all the knowledge from you that what you have been going through.
For example,
Today you started a business.
You have done something.
For example,
Let's say somebody is assembling a machine.
He is half-baked and he is going to sleep.
The next day when he wakes up,
He doesn't know where to connect.
The knowledge doesn't come to him.
Will he be able to complete the assembly of the machine?
He can't.
He needs to conduct some kind of reminder about,
Oh,
This is where I slept with,
Now I have to continue from here.
Your day's activity It is getting again reminded to you,
I say you left with this,
Now you have to continue from here.
When day begins.
Smriti is giving you and breads.
We don't?
Do you like this?
Krishna is Jeevanam Sarvabhuteshvam.
Is the life force in every living entity.
Because we are And in our student,
Let's have a look.
He's saying,
Someone would do a Shatmanda.
Tasty succulent food items,
Right?
It's been dry.
In our meetings.
Imagine you get an apple.
It's not succulent apple.
Can you enjoy eating that apple?
I,
In form of?
Moon Girl.
Making their floats very much succulent.
I don't understand this.
You know the problem is the materialistic way of life is always twisting our Why?
Erev Vam Krishnamurti But if you try to analyze things,
How you are surviving in this world,
What goes on around us,
We can see in every aspect of life,
Even in this material world,
Krishna's presence is there.
Is making us comfortable,
Happy,
Peaceful,
Healthy.
Even the very air we take is his source,
His energy.
That's how we survive.
So therefore the first step of God realization is we connect with God with this material body,
With the material surroundings.
That is the first step of module.
What would you go to do?
The cook.
What they cook.
What God can give.
Because He has given everything.
Who has given all these food items that are growing in the field?
He has given.
So since he does game half,
It is our duty to first make an offering to Him.
And you bring a login opening for him and you request my dear God you are so kind you have given me these items for my survival before I accept it I want you to first honor it and give me your remnants so that I don't want to become a ungrateful person I want to express my gratitude to you.
Word,
You don't need to know Sanskrit verbs.
Very simple.
You think Grateful to the Lord for Him.
Giving you all facilities,
And not only that,
After a day or a couple of weeks,
See,
He is giving you the food item.
And then,
In form of fire,
He's also helping you to cook.
Would we laugh and laugh about you coming when I would hear another.
Fire that is easy.
Energy.
So he is helping you again to cook with the help of fire.
And the fire is not helping you to digest also.
Again he is in another form of fire.
After you eat,
He is helping you to digest your food.
Who can be more merciful than this person?
Are you able to relate to me what I am talking?
Yes.
Krishna Consciousness is not something which says everything goes beyond your time.
I don't know.
I'm not going to go.
And that is everything for you.
They teach you meditation.
We teach you meditation.
That continue 24 hours a day.
That is the secret of Arsalan Nagar.
Can somebody not be Krishna conscious?
Can somebody not be meditative upon Krishna while drinking water,
While drinking oxygen,
While cooking?
As I explained,
Even after eating,
While eating,
24 hours.
He is in deep meditation.
This is practice,
This is practical.
This is why Krishna consciousness is very very practical form of practice.
Going to be like this.
