How to Forgive and Forget

Know that you have the power to do it and just do it. Open your mind to the vastness of this universe. Wake up and see that seven billion people are on this planet, everyday many are being burnt, everyday many are dying. Whatever big thing you are hanging on to about someone’s action towards you, know that it is your karma that made them act that way with you. If not that person, some other person would have given you the same experience. This is what you need to realize, this is what you need to see.

Look at life from a bigger perspective. That’s why I keep saying, behind every event there is knowledge, behind every person there is love, behind every object there is infinity, just know this, watch this, get this, that’s it.

Q: Yoga says, 'We are mind, body and soul', but Buddha says that there is no soul. Then who is a human being? Also, I would like to have some guidance to practice unconditional love.

Guruji : It’s just a matter of saying. If a cup is half full and half empty, someone can say that it is half empty and somebody else can say that it is half full. In Buddha’s time, people already had a lot of concepts about Self, God and everything. This country was full of philosophers and each and every one of Buddha’s disciples were well-read, educated, and a great philosopher. So for Him, He had to take this step of nothingness. "Everything is nothing", that is what He said.

To say that it is all nothing, there must be something. Only something can experience the nothing. If I am saying that I am experiencing nothing, then there must be me, to experience nothing. That’s what Yoga says.

Don’t look for experiencing unconditional love, don’t seek it, don’t try to experience it. It is beyond experience. It is the existence. So you must simply assume you are in unconditional love, that’ it, period. Don’t question it anymore.

Q: Vigyan Bhairav speaks of many techniques to slip into meditation. How do I find the best one for me?

Guruji : Sahaj Samadhi is the best one because you can do it anytime, anywhere.
============
Q: Can you speak about the different Devatas and the mantras for each?

Guruji : Mantras are vibrations, so are Devatas and that is how they are related. When Lord Krishna was asked a question, this is what he said, "Daivadhinam jagat sarvam, mantradhinam tu devata. Tan mantram Brahmanadhinam Brahmana mama devata.".

The entire planet, the phenomenon of and creation is controlled or managed by them (Devatas). What you see in the gross is only an effect of what is happening in the subtle. So the gross is controlled by the subtle. The world is under the domain of the Devas. "Mantradhinam tu devata" - Devatas are under the control of the mantras. The domain of the mantras are over the Devatas.

"Tan mantram Brahmanadhinam", one who is living in the Brahman consciousness, one who is centered, one who is totally in the elevated consciousness, the cosmic consciousness, mantras are under that person. That’s why mantras are such that you cannot take them from books or anybody, you take it only from the Guru. One who is in knowledge, who has the knowledge of Brahman, the mantras work there. And it has to go in that tradition. The Gurus give mantra to somebody and tells the person, you go and give, it has the same effect. Don’t think, "Gurudev must directly give the mantra", no. Gurudev can give the mantra through some other people also.
