Let us please come at the hirdaa (heart area).
ਹਿਰਦੈ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਧੁਨਿ ਉਪਜੀ ਹਰਿ ਜਪੀਐ ਮਸਤਕਿ ਭਾਗੁ ਜੀਉ ॥
hirdai har har har Dhun upjee har japee-ai mastak bhaag jee-o.
Please feel the presence of the Divine at the hirdaa. Hirdaa is a point just behind our heart, just off of the street of the present to the left; at the left bank of the river of ishq.
Har Har Heart Meditation at 4:15
There is a letter from sangat:
If we are listening as we listen to ordinary talk then that’s the mind listening, and the mind can never really hear anything about God.But if our soul is listening, our heart is listening, our insides are listening, then we would feel the sound coming from some deep tunnel.
The writer writes that it was Vaisakhi Day, I went to Darbar Sahib, Sri Akhand Path Sahib were being finished and the Salok of Mahala Ninth were being sung. I bowed before the True Guru and sat on a bench at the back.I sang the Saloks along with others, then I sung Raag Maalaa, then Japji Sahib recitation started. I started drowning within and the sound from outside started diminishing and the sound of Celestial Music got louder. Then there were waves of different colors - golden, yellow; they started appearing before me. I had no idea where I was sitting.
Then I saw a rose flower with an inch and a half long stem. Out of that flower, a spring arose, releasing pearls and then it disappeared. I started looking for the flower and sometime later, I found that flower again. Then somebody sat beside me and I woke up, not from the dream, but I came back into this world again. I rubbed my eyes, opened them, and I was totally flabbergasted that I was sitting in the Darbar Sahib full of sangat.
ਤੂੰ ਫਿਰ ਵਸਾਏ… ਆਣ ਕੇ….ਇਹ ਚਨਾ ਦੇ ਬੇਲੇ
tooN fir vasaa-ay aan kay….ih chanaa day baylay
ਤੂੰ ਆਪ ਬਿਠਾਏਂ ਕਿਸ਼ਤੀ….ਆਪ ਨਦੀ ਚ’ ਠੇਲੇਂ
tooN aap bithaa-ayN kishtee…..aap nadee ch thaylayN
You yourself put us into the boat and put that boat in the river of ishq and transport us to your palace.
ਇੱਥੇ ਆਲਮ ਬੇਪਰਵਾਹੀਆਂ…..ਸਭ ਦਰਦ ਨੇ ਭੁੱਲੇ
ithay aalam bayparvaahee-aaN…..sabh dard nay bhullay
This is the world of carefreeness; no pains can be felt here.
ਅਸਮਾਨੀ ਉੱਡਦੀਆਂ ਹੂਰਾਂ….ਜਿਉਂ ਹਵਾ ਦੇ ਬੁੱਲੇ
asmaanee ud-dee-aaN hooraaN….jioN havaa day bullay
So beautiful souls rise up in the skies just like gusts of the wind.
ਇੱਥੇ ਨਾਦ ਇਲਾਹੀ ਵੱਜਦੇ….ਸਤ ਸਰ ਬਹੁਮੁੱਲੇ
ithay naad ilaahee vaj-day….sat sar bahumullay
Celestial music keeps playing here and seven holy tanks to bathe in - so precious!
The Siddhas are asking Maharaj Ji:
ਕਹਾ ਤੇ ਆਵੈ ਕਹਾ ਇਹੁ ਜਾਵੈ ਕਹਾ ਇਹੁ ਰਹੈ ਸਮਾਈ ॥
kahaa tay aavai kahaa ih jaavai kahaa ih rahai samaa-ee.
Siddhas are asking Maharaj Ji, where do these souls come from, and where do they leave for when they are taken out of the bodies, and what happens to those who do not come back?
Where do the souls come from? Where do they depart for? And those who never return back, what happens to them?
Maharaj Ji says:
ਹੁਕਮੇ ਆਵੈ ਹੁਕਮੇ ਜਾਵੈ ਹੁਕਮੇ ਰਹੈ ਸਮਾਈ ॥
hukmay aavai hukmay jaavai hukmay rahai samaa-ee.
Maharaj Ji says that God has established everlasting, never-changing, permanent true laws. This is how he’s running his infinite kingdom. He says, the souls come and go according to the laws He has established. First type are those who are worldly people, who do not listen to the Divine’s utterances. They deal with each other, their accounts are kept, and everyone’s account balance is always unbalanced. They are sent back, that you owe this person, you hurt this person, now go back; that account is to be balanced. The second type are those who are walking the path to His mansion, and before they reached there, they were called back. They are blessed with human bodies and sent back to complete their affairs. The third type are the ones who become one with the Divine after rebirth. It can never happen without rebirth. They merge with God after rebirth, and stay there with Him. Fourth type are those who had merged with Him, and whomsoever He wills,He sends them back to serve his children.
Ji, we should understand very well who we are now. When we understand who we are now, then this path will become easy. We do not know who we are. We hear that this is the mind; the mind is speaking this or the soul is doing that, but it is not clear. It must become very clear. We started talking about this in Michigan.
Dhaarnaa:
ਆਖੇਂ ਤਾਂ ਮੈਂ ਬਾਤ ਪਾਵਾਂ…..ਅੱਜ ਇੱਕ ਸੱਜਣਾ ਵੇ…..ਤੇ ਤੂੰ…..ਰੱਖੀਂ ਉਸ ਬਾਤ ਦਾ ਨਾਅ
aakhayN taaN maiN baat paavaaN …..aj ik sajanaa vay……tay tooN…..rakheeN us baat daa naa
I don’t know the name of this story but I will tell you the story, and you can name it.
ਜਨਮ ਤੋਂ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਨਹੀਂ ਸੀ…..ਵੱਖਰੀ ਕੋਈ ਹੋਂਦ ਮੇਰੀ….ਜਦੋਂ ਮਾਂ ਦੀ……ਕੁੱਖ ਵਿੱਚ ਸਾਂ
janam toN pahilaaN nahee see….vakhree ko-ee hoNd mayree…jadoN maaN dee… kukh vich saaN
Before we are born, we are not individuals.
ਮੈਂ ਤੇ ਮਾਂ ਇੱਕ ਸਾਂ….ਸੋਜਣੀ ਉਹਦੀ ਕੁੱਖ ਵਿੱਚ…..ਇੱਕ… ਹਿੱਸਾ ਹੀ ਉਹਦਾ ਸਾਂ
I was not separate from my mother when I was in her womb. I was one with the womb of the mother; I was just a part of her body.
Dhaarnaa (new lines)
ਇੱਕੋ ਹੀ ਸੀ ਖੂਨ ਸਾਡਾ….ਇੱਕ ਹੀ ਸੀ ਸਾਹ ਸਾਂਝਾ…..ਨਾ ਕੋਈ….ਵੱਖਰੀ ਹਸਤੀ ਸਾਂ
iko hee see khoon saadaa…..ik hee see saaH saaNjhaa…naa ko-ee…vakhree hastee saaN
I was nourished by the mother’s blood, by the mother’s oxygen. I was part of her body.
ਨਾਭੀ ਰਾਹੀਂ ਜੁੜੀ ਸਾਂ ਮੈਂ…..ਸੁੱਚੀ ਉਸ ਮਾਂ ਨਾਲ…ਜਿਵੇਂ ਦਿੱਲ ਤੇ ਜਿਸਮ ਹੁੰਦੇ ਆ…..
naabhee raaheeN jurhee saaN maiN……suchee us maa naal…..jivayN dil tay jisam hunday aa
I was joined from my navel to my mother’s body. She was my very source of life. My mother was my source of life, and I was one with her through the navel.
The heart, lungs, kidneys are all organs but they are all parts of our body; they are connected to us. Similarly the baby is inside the mother, and is a part of the mother, connected to the mother. Like the heart and the body are together, similarly the mother and baby are together; as if my mother was the heart and I was the body. The body is alive because of the heart. The baby is alive because of the mother.
Dhaarnaa(end)
We are here on this planet to transform our consciousness from mind consciousness to divine consciousness. The things which affect our consciousness are: what we see, what we hear, and what we read.
When we speak, vibrations arise within us; the thoughts create the vibrations. Then God converts those vibrations into words. Then those spoken words create vibrations and those vibrations hit us at a precise point. Let’s say someone has thoughts about buying real estate and someone says there is a property on sale. The vibrations arise and strike the other person at a specific space within that is related to outside property. God has created spaces within us and assigned them to specific reasons. Let’s say someone calls us names. The negative vibrations of calling names enter us and strike a point within us from where anger arises. There is a specific point within us below the navel from where anger arises, so those vibrations strike that point. So, whatever we hear is going to affect our consciousness. Consciousness keeps flowing like water and is not stationary. If negative vibrations hit, then the consciousness goes down and if positive vibrations hit then the consciousness rises upward. It is extremely important that we are very aware of where we sit and from where we pass by - people sitting there may be talking negatively so I must not pass by there; this person is noble, even if he doesn’t speak, good vibrations are coming out of him so I am going to sit here. Maharaj Ji teaches us how to live life. He does not make false promises about heaven after death. Maharaj Ji says:
ਦਰ ਦਰਸਨ ਕਾ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਮੁ ਹੋਵੈ ਮੁਕਤਿ ਬੈਕੁੰਠੈ ਕਰੈ ਕਿਆ ॥
dar darsan kaa pareetam hovai mukat baikunthay karai ki-aa.
He says if someone is a trader of truth, what does he have to do with heavens and liberation?
We have to wake up not just for ourselves but for the ones who are ours, those who live with us. What kind of thoughts am I having? What vibrations are coming out of me? How is it affecting those around me? We will talk in length about this because it’s so important. Maharaj Ji talks about this in the 19th Paurhee (stanza) of Japji Sahib.
asaNkh naav asaNkh thaav.
agamm agamm asaNkh lo-a.
asaNkh kehahi sir bhaar ho-ay.
akhree naam akhree saalaah.
Please read the 19th stanza of Japji Sahib before tomorrow’s deewan.
Maharaj Ji says:
ਨਾਨਕ ਚਿੰਤਾ ਮਤਿ ਕਰਹੁ ਚਿੰਤਾ ਤਿਸ ਹੀ ਹੇਇ ॥
naanak chintaa mat karahu chintaa tis hee hay-ay.
He says, oh my dear ones, do not become anxious. God has been taking care of you; He’s going to take care of you.
These are just words, vibrations - right? And it gives us peace - right? Please understand this - the power of words, the power of vibrations, the power of thoughts. It is a miracle that the world does not know anything about.
These are just words. He did not bring some things and give it to us and say here take it and now your worries will be gone. He has just created certain vibrations within us which has assured us that things are going to be okay. That’s all it happens. He didn’t say, here are a million dollars and now you won’t have any worries. He made our inside hear a sound that created vibrations within us, and those vibrations made us peaceful.
ਜਲ ਮਹਿ ਜੰਤ ਉਪਾਇਅਨੁ ਤਿਨਾ ਭਿ ਰੋਜੀ ਦੇਇ ॥
jal meh jant upaa-i-an tinaa bhe rojee day-ay.
He says, God has created millions of species of life in oceans.
ਓਥੈ ਹਟੁ ਨ ਚਲਈ ਨਾ ਕੋ ਕਿਰਸ ਕਰੇਇ ॥
othai hat na chal-ee naa ko kiras karay-i.
There are no stores in oceans; nobody does farming in oceans.
ਸਉਦਾ ਮੂਲਿ ਨ ਹੋਵਈ ਨਾ ਕੋ ਲਏ ਨ ਦੇਇ ॥
sa-udaa mool na hova-ee naa ko la-ay na day-ay.
No transactions take place. Nobody buys anything, nobody sells anything.
ਜੀਆ ਕਾ ਆਹਾਰੁ ਜੀਅ ਖਾਣਾ ਏਹੁ ਕਰੇਇ ॥
jee-aa kaa aahaar jee-a khaanaa ayhu karay-i.
He has created little fish as food for big fish and the arrangement is such that the little fish do not experience any pain when the big fish eat them.
ਵਿਚਿ ਉਪਾਏ ਸਾਇਰਾ ਤਿਨਾ ਭਿ ਸਾਰ ਕਰੇਇ ॥
vich upaa-ay saa-iraa tinaa bhe saar karay-i.
He has created so many species in water, in the ocean, He’s taking care of them. Won’t He take care of you?
ਨਾਨਕ ਚਿੰਤਾ ਮਤ ਕਰਹੁ ਚਿੰਤਾ ਤਿਸ ਹੀ ਹੇਇ ॥
naanak chintaa mat karahu chintaa tis hee hay-ay.
He has been throughout the ages, so just relax. Do not be anxious.
Maharaj Ji says:
ਗੁਰੁ ਜੋਗੀ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਮਿਲਿਆ ਰੰਗੁ ਮਾਣੀ ਜੀਉ ॥
gur jogee purakh mili-aa rang maanee jee-o.
Maharaj Ji says you have been blessed with the company of the True Guru who is full of ishq. Enjoy Him!
Dhaarnaa:
ਸੁਣ ਨੀ ਮਾਏ ਮੇਰੀਏ….. ਮੈਂ ਜੋਗੀ ਮਿਲਿਆ ਇੱਕ
sun nee maa-ay mayree-ay, maiN jogee mili-aa ik
Oh my mother, I have met a Jogee, He’s called True Guru Jogee.
ਕਿੰਝ ਕਰਾਂ ਮੈਂ ਉਹਦੀ ਸਿਫਤ ਨੀ….ਉਹ ਕਿੱਥੋਂ ਲਿਆਵਾਂ ਭਿੱਤ
kinjh karaaN maiN oHdee sift nee…..oh kithoN li-aavaaN bhit
Oh my mother, how can I talk about Him? From where should I bring a mouth who can talk about Him? This mouth has no capacity. This mouth of mine is not capable of talking about the True Guru, and I don’t know where to get the mouth that can talk about the Guru.
ਮੈਂ ਜੋਗਣ ਹੋ ਗਈ ਓਸ ਦੀ…..ਸਾਡੀ ਦੁਨੀ ਲਈ ਉਸ ਲੁੱਟ
maiN jogan ho ga-ee os dee….saadee dunee la-ee us lut
My true Guru is a Jogee, and I have become his Jogan. You know the world I had created, He has demolished that! He has demolished that world of mine which I had been taking care of so anxiously, worriedly. He just blew a whistle and that world is no more. That world was just dreams, just thoughts, nothing substantive.
