Why can’t you attain peace through worldly pleasures? by Harman Singh

What is the true form of bliss?

If we are trying to find happiness
in life, if that is the purpose.

Then can't we find happiness through our
desires of eating food?

Attaining money,
showing off to the world?

Whatever it may be.

Is that not enough?

If the goal is to attain peace.

Well guess what.

I attain lots of peace after pursuing my lust.

I ha've attained lots of happiness after
pursuing my greed.

If that goal is happiness then why can
I just not attain it through the world?

Because attain.
I see so much happiness.

But do not forget that that ras
what you say is very temporary.

It is like a safflower, the colour seems
great but it is actually not there.

It is like a deer
that is running down the road.

It sees a pool of water.

But when it runs to that water,
the water seems even farther away.

You may have experienced this.

You may be driving down
the road on a sunny day.

It seems like there is
water down the road.

The reality is the water
is not actually there.

It seems like an illusion.

So that anand which you are
pursuing is a little heavenly.

is a little heavenly

Because any time you pursue that type of
Anand it does not last forever.

It is temporary it gives you the illusion
of Sukh, but it actually gives you Dukh.

You eat food Pyreyo.

Once you eat this food.

Just moment later the
food will start to digest.

And you will start to
feeling hungry again.

That is the reality.

You go and enjoy a movie.

But that enjoyment of a movie will not
last forever.

You go and enjoy a song but that
enjoyment will not last forever.

Because you go back
and Dukh attacks you after.

At one time you were happy and then
sadness follows.

These are like two clothes.
You switch them on and off.

Sometimes you go soaring into the skyes.

Your mind is so greedy that
what it is trying to acquire.

To soak the happiness,
acquiring it in the wrong way.

Because it is so ‘chanchal’.

Because it is so wavering.

It cannot find its true happiness
anywhere.

There are two people.
An Agyani and Brahmgyani.

The Brahm Gyani says that
"I want to acquire peace and happiness"

Brahm Gyani means the person
who is enlightened.

The person that has experienced parmatma.

Through each and every atom of
this unverse.

Within each and every hair follicle
of their entire body.

They are hearing similar and
all they see is Brahm.

They see a paramatma everywhere.

That Brahm Giyani is saying that
I want to experience Anand.

And the Agyani, the person
that is living their life in ignorance.

Going after the flavoUrs of the world,
the tastes of the world.

They are sitting and saying they want
to experience Anand.

They want to experience bliss
and happiness as well.

They both go do the same action.

They eat a plate of food.

When they go to eat this plate of food,
they are Agyani.

The one living in ignorance.

Not experiencing God instead seeing the
duality of the world.

He feels hunger.

This desire and this hunger is
driving this person mad.

He goes to eat the food.

He is saying that the food
will make me content.

It will fulfill my desire
to fulfill my needs.

Once he eats the food,
his stomach is filled.

He says “wah”.

Anand aa geya..

Keep these words in mind.

He says
“Anand aa geya”.

But moments later.

An hour later, two hours later,
He is starting to feel hunger again.

Because he does not realize
where ananda comes from.

He placed Anand coming
from the food.

So next time he is in need of Anand,
of happiness, he will go after food.

Whether it will be spicy food next time.

Whether it will be
sweet food, cheesy food.

Going after many many
different types of food.

Growing the taste
of the tongue.

Going after all of these food.

Going after sweetness, bitter, tasty
savoury foods.

He's saying that
this food that I ate.

Even though it
fulfilled my hunger.

Now the desires of the fickle mind.

The mind is saying that you
do not just want food anymore.

No! You want spicy food,
no, you want sweet food.

You know the how the rest goes.

Then there's the Brahmgian Pyareo.

He is eating food,
he does the exact same task.

Do not think that the Brahm Gyani’s
actions are any different

to the actions of a person
living in ignorance.

That person that will be living
in this world will be exact same.

Sometimes you may not
even be able to notice.

That this person is
experiencing the Anand.

This Brahm Gyani,
he sits and eats the food.

Once the food is eaten
he feel content.

He says the same words.
Wah, anand aa geya.

But when he starts feeling hunger
moments later.

Once the food starts to digest
his contentments is not lost.

Why? Because he did not place
the source of Anand.

The source of happiness
of contentment inside the food itself.

Pyaareyo this is how it works.

When your mind is after a desire.

When your mind is after a desire
your mind is wavering.

It is trying to chase after something
it is trying to find something.

Once it finds what is acquiring your mind
becomes still for just a split second.

In that split moment
you do not look around.

Your five senses
are not looking around.

It does not matter what you are hearing.

What you are seeing.
What you are feeling.

For that split millisecond, may it be,
your mind becomes still.

The rays of Akaal Purakh.

Just like the sun is shining,
through and out this entire world.

Even Agyani through contentment may feel
a little bit of the rays of that sun.

Because he has become
desireless for a split second.

He has become completely Nishkaam.

The truth is since the moment
we were born,

we have not become desireless.

The moment you were born you
started crying.

For the milk of your mother.

That desire grew to playing with your mum
and dad.

To eating lots of food.

To playing with your brothers and sisters

Than that grew to Kaam
then it grew to greed.

This desire does not end
just like numbers do not end.

The desire in this mind of yours
will never end.

If you place your hopes in the false
this false world, Pyareyo.

The Brahm Gyani that is eating that food.

He says “Anand aa gaya”.

Because he knows that my mind
has now become still.

He felt content and the
light of Akaal Purakh is shing through.

He keeps his mind in Anand.

Because knows that the Anand
was not coming from the food.

It comes from my mind becoming still.

It is Abhiaasi Brahm Gyani who
is always able to keep their mind still.

Completely desireless.

That is what a Brahm Gyani is.

What else,
what other desire does he have?

What other desire would he have?

If that Hari da Jan has become
the form of Akaal Purakh

and there is no difference
between that Guru da Sevak

and Akaal Purakh themselves,

then that person must be
desirelss, right?

But no they say that that person
still has desire.

They say God is not desireless.

Somebody said what do you mean
God is not desireless.

They say God is very hungry.

They say what do you mean God is hungry?

God is the creator of the universe.

God cannot be hungry for anything.

Bhai Gurdaas Ji says
“No God is hungry."

They say
“What is God hungry for?”

The say

What is Akaal Purakh hungry for ?

He is hungry for Prema Bhagti.

Akaal Purakh created this universe
as a Dharam Sala.

To be able to sit
in this Dharam Sala

and experience the Akaal Purakh.

For the love of their Bhagats
Akaal Purakh created the Sari Sristi.

Saari Kherd

Because he is hungry for Prem,
hungry for love.

That person that has
drenched their entire life.

Just like we take clothes
and the dyer puts it into the water.

The clothes are pulled out
and whatever the water smelled like

whether it smelled like fragrance
like jasmine

whether it smelled like
sandalwood

Whatever color that water was, the
clothes has now died in that color.

That same way.

Those that are completely
drenched

and imbued in that
colour of Akaal Purakh.

Their life is blessed.

Them coming in this world is blessed.

Because they filled the purpose of
Akaal Purakh.

The world says that I am having a social life.

But the guru says

This is all false that go back to the
example of Brahm Gyani.

Brahm Gyani is the food
now when the food.

Brahmagyani is now hungry again
whether food is on his plate or it is not.

The Brahm Gyani will
always stay in Anand.

Because the food was
not the source of Anand.
