- You speak to him.
-
Papaji, I'm asking you if this
doubt my name carried before,
-
to release me of... releave me of that,
and giving me a new name.
-
Okay.
-
Too much is burden.
The past is finished.
-
And what I say is 'the seeker' in your
presence is just an old, old habit seeking.
-
And you've shown me already
the end, and it's just going on. So,
-
for this I'm asking you a new name.
-
I'll give you a name,
which has no identity at all.
-
- Devraj.
- Yes.
-
- Today 20?

-
- "Love...
- You said.
-
You said that we have to go alone.
-
"You said that you go,
-
"to go alone,
-
"to go alone for freedom.
-
"I am afraid of going alone.
-
"No, no such, no...
-
- "So much of these,
-
- "of the...
- Loneliness.
-
"...loneliness.
-
"Will you please...
-
Will you please be there for me?
Will you please be there for me?
-
"...be there for me?
-
"I will be there for...
-
Will I be there for me?
-
- "I have to be...
- Free.
-
- Free.
- "...free."
-
- Who is it?
- Enat, Enat.
-
Enat.
-
You have to be alone,
to be happy and free.
-
All day you are busy with so many things.
-
Then you go to sleep.
-
There you are alone and enjoy
for at least eight to ten hours.
-
Why do you sleep if
you are enjoying here?
-
It means freedom is in loneliness.
-
You can be here and still alone.
-
Then you can enjoy this world also and
everything of this world,
-
including yourself and
friends and relations.
-
But if you have this with,
"This is mine and I have to get other,
-
"tomorrow, day after tomorrow,"
-
then you are suffering.
-
So try to be alone all the time,
-
even with your friends and relations.
-
And this trick you have to
learn from the teacher.
-
And all the rest relations are only
eating you up and spoiling you.
-
I know that.
I know that.
-
You know that then,.
That's why you have come here.
-
If you were happy you would
not have come here, you see.
-
Yes.
-
Thank you.
-
This is paining.
-
- The heel is paining. Remove this.
- This one?
-
The heel
-
"Dearest Papaji, This is my last satsang
before returning to England.
-
"I hope the fact that I feel my,
my spiritual roots are Western,
-
"and
-
- "and...
- Christian. Christian.
-
"...and roots are Western and Christian,
-
- "and not, not...
- Eastern.
-
"...not Eastern, or Hindus,
-
- Will not detract.
- "will not...
-
Detract.
-
- Heh?
- Detract.
-
"...will not detract.
-
- "I am able to, to...
- Receive you.
-
- "...receive...
- From you.
-
"...from you.
-
"May I sing you another
little song?
-
"Serge."
-
How you can sing a song and when you are
divided with so many things?
-
You have to be free and alone.
-
Then only you can sing
and others can enjoy.
-
What do you mean that you are Western,
-
Western and,
-
- Christian.
- and Christian?
-
What is the meaning of Christian?
-
That you belong to somebody who died.
-
Yes. And you are still following him.
-
Why don't you live with the man who's ever
alive and living and tell you, you are,
-
you don't belong to me
and you don't belong to any religion,
-
and you don't belong to any God?
-
You must follow that man.
Then you will be happy.
-
What do you mean by, "I am Christian?"
-
Christ is dead, 2000 years now.
-
And you are following a man
who is dead, you see.
-
And you will also die like him.
-
So this religion is given by the people
who are doing some business,
-
some kind of business, you see.
-
Even, even during his life
nobody followed him.
-
Five people were there only.
-
Only five people were there and
they also left him every time.
-
When he was suffering nobody
helped him, you see?
-
So it is better to be free,
and don't follow anyone
-
and follow something
which cannot be followed.
-
Close your eyes,
and close your ears,
-
and then see who's that
person who can help you.
-
Anyway, you are offered to sing a song.
-
Who is, listen to the song. and who will
enjoy when somebody is suffering and singing?
-
It's a good song to say,
"I am free.
-
"I don't belong to any
religion and anybody."
-
Then you sing a song.
-
Everybody will follow and
everybody will be happy.
-
So since you have offered
to sing a song, all...
-
Okay, you can sing but what
happened to your right knee?
-
What is this?
-
It split out of my jeans.
-
It split out of my jeans.
It split out of my jeans, he says.
-
Out of your...
-
And it will go slowly,
it will go up, you see.
-
This hole will slowly go up, you see?
-
Okay.
-
- I will try to sing from that space.
- Yes. Okay.
-
I will try to sing from that space.
-
From this place?
-
Chalo.
-
I've been scrambled by your grace.
-
That's blown my logical mind away.
-
I've been scrambled by your grace.
-
It is all being blown away.
-
Forgot.
-
I'm so grateful for your presence, Papaji.
-
Bless you, Papaji.
-
- That's all?
- What?
-
That's all?
-
It's such a big song on the big...
-
I will try one more verse.
-
I can't.
Thank you, Papaji.
-
"This is the echo.
-

-
What do you think the dream means?
-
- Dream?
- Dream.
-
When she thought that
she was married to you.
-
What time she had a dream?
-
It was this last summer,
during the summer.
-
During last summer.
-
- Summer. Summer.
- Last summer.
-
- And time?
- What time?
-
- At night.
- Whole night, whole night.
-
Whole night so...
-
This dream is a true dream.
-
It is going to happen.
It is very true.
-
You can't dream otherwise. You have
not seen me, and you are having dream.
-
So it is going to be a true dream.
-
And you will know, at that time I will
tell you.
-
Today, tomorrow, doesn't mean anything.
-
And this time, when you have dream,
it's not a time at all.
-
It is beyond time,
where I and you will always meet.
-
And then you will know that
we are the same person.
-
Yes. Okay.
-
There's something here.
Something.
-
My eyes are...
-
Chalo.
-
What is name?
-
Reinhild.
Reinhild.
-
"I am leaving today, and,
-
"and with you.
-
"I trust.
-
- "I want to...
- Thank you.
-
"I want to thank you
for your presence.
-
Somehow.
-
"Somehow I feel that you are,
-
"you are the light.
-
"Although I don't really...
-
- Understand it.
- "...understand it.
-
"Before I go,
-
"before I go now,
-
"I also want to, to ask you,
-
"if you,
-
"if you are,
-
"if you give me,
-
- "give...
- Me.
-
"...give me
-
"real idea, who I am,
-
"and know that it becomes,
-
"it becomes more near to that.
-
"It is, it is that, that...
-
"fail...
-
- That what I am searching.
- "That what I am searching."
-
I tell you how you will know
who you are in reality.
-
Just now you can see
what you are in reality.
-
First of all,
-
close your eyes,
-
and secondly,
-
close your mind.
-
Don't think of the past, present,
and future.
-
And then you will know who,
who really you are.
-
Smog...
-
You have to tell me now.
-
There's nothing,
-
- Nothing. There's nothing.
- Ah yes. That is correct.
-
You are always that, you see.
-
You are always that.
-
But somehow, somebody has told you,
'You are my daughter,' and 'You are my wife'
-
and you have listened to him,
you have become that,
-
and spoiled yourself.
-
You are not woman, not man.
-
You are God itself.
-
Therefore, nobody has told you, before.
Therefore you ignored it.
-
So tell, 'I am God myself,
I don't need anything else.'
-
'I am happiness. I am silence.
I am not born.'
-
So this is the trick to be always happy.
-
But nobody tells.
-
When you are born, the mother
is happy, 'She is my daughter.'
-
And when you are married,
the husband is happy, 'She is my wife.'
-
So everybody want to possess you
for their own use, to enjoy.
-
Not that, you see.
-
So you are that, which has no body,
-
and which cannot be enjoyed,
which is enjoyment itself, you see.
-
So this is the trick, which
nobody has told you before.
-
Okay.
-
Chalo. Chalo.
-
"Dear Papaji,
-
"I don't know what to say,
-
"but,
