Youth Peace Fest held in Jaipur in 2014.
Kathmandu, Nepal- 2014 [04:54 min]
To the person who is in peace, he has everything inspite of having nothing. If you're not in peace, you won't get proper sleep, you won't be able to enjoy anything in your life. Do you think hunger is only requirement for having food? No, peace is needed too. People who are restless, often don't eat even if they're hungry- they say, "I'm not in mood"!
Mann ke bahaut tarang hain
chhin chhin badle soye
Ek hi rang mein jo rahe
aisa birla koye!

Science city auditorium Kolkata (Calcutta) [41:00 min]
Event was held in Calcutta (kolkata) in science city auditorium, primarily for college students. At the end of cheerful talk by Maharaji, students asked many questions to him. His rock solid answer with love only them gasping for more.
Q: Many of us are becoming spiritual in order to search peace of mind. Do you think we are becoming selfish, or is it some kind of divine planning?
A: Selfish is so relative! When we have the luxury of sitting somewhere. Then is it like selfish? If my action deprives somebody of something, then it selfish. But when I am going to discover myself, not the other person; who am I depriving of what? Secondly, the creator has given you gift of breath- Now give this to somebody else! You can't! Even if you want to, you can't. Is that selfish? It is NOT selfish. It is what it is. To search for yourself is not selfish, because you are not depriving anybody of anything.
Q: Maharaji, my question is "What is true joy, and how can we experience this in our life"
A: It is within you.
Aatam anubhav gyaan ki, jo koi pooche baat
So gunga gud khaaye ke, kahe kaun mukh swaad!
How can I describe the experience of knowledge. When I cannot explain you the taste of Kiwi Fruit, how can I explain you the feeling of Self-Knowledge! You have to experience it yourself. This is the possibility. That is why it is so exciting! This is not a philosophy. I have not come to say "do this and that", and then disappear. No. I am not here to give you give an hour lecture "You should find the God within you. Ok kid bye!"
"Nai, Main apne saare shubdon ke peeche hoon"- I backup up every word I say!
And that is what makes it so exciting. Around the world - Saare Sansaar ke andar, Main logon ko ye dikhata hoon, batata hoon, aur anubhav karata hoon (I show this to people, tell them, and also make them experience this)!

Ek Chor ki Kahani- The story of a thief [06:30 min]
This is a cartoon depiction of a beautiful story with a moral.
Once upon a time, a man left his village, so that he could earn a lot of money, and went to a big city. He earned a lot of wealth. After some time, he started missing his family, so he decided to go back to his village. He took all his wealth and packed it in a suitcase, and started the journey back to his village.
He met a thief on the way. The thief became interested in the man's money and drafted a plan. In a very friendly way, he asked the man, whether he too could travel with him.
The man agreed. So, they both checked into a hotel. That day, when the man went to take a bath. The thief searched the man's luggage, but could not find the money this man had earned. Tired, he left the search. Next night again, they halted at an inn, to spend the night. This time again, the thief searched and searched for the money. But, he could not find it. The thief gave up.
Next day, as they approached the village where this man lived. The thief disclosed to the man, "Listen, I am not your friend. I am a thief. I wanted to steal all your wealth. Every day, when you would go for bath, I would search for the money which you had earned, but I could not find it. Tell me the truth, were you just making a fool out of me, when you told me, that you have earned a lot of wealth.
The man answered, "I knew you were a thief. So, that whenever, I would go for a bath, I would hide the bundle of money under your pillow. Because, I knew you would search for it everywhere, but not under your pillow."
This is what happens with everyone, each one of us searches for peace on the outside. But we are unable to find it. This is because, the peace we are looking for, is not on the outside. It is within us. This is why Socrates said, "Know Thyself!"

Nalanda, Bihar- 2014 [05:54 min]
Have you seen a honeybee? What does it do? It has a tool and a skill- To go to a flower and extract nectar out of it. You can't do that.
When you look at the flower, you only see flower as a sweet scented stuff. Do you also think that this flower holds honey inside it? Honeybee has different eyes, and it sees flower as a source of honey.
Why did I use this analogy? Because I can also give you the virtue of that honeybee.

Paani mein meen pyasi [03:19 min]
If I want to quench my thirst, what do you need? People say you need water. So we search for water, put the bucket, pull it out. Fill a glass of water. We've got the water, but thirst is still there. Because it is necessary to drink that water too. There are people who have various beliefs. There is a couplet from Kabir
Paani mein meen piyasi
Mohe sun sun aawe haansi
Fish is thirsty in water, and this makes me laugh! Let's get this clear as to who this 'Meen' (fish) is? It is you. It's not about the fish, it's metaphorical to you. That which is inside, is taught to be very far, and this brings hopelessness. Our God is within everyone, No one being the exception. But the person who witnesses it, is the most fortunate!
Mohe sun sun aawe haansi
Atam Gyaan bina nar bhatke
Kya Mathura, Kya Kaasi
Mrig naabhi mein hai kasturi
Ban ban phirat udaasi
You're not what you think you are. If you want to understand yourself, you need to understand that power that is within you.
Kya Mathura, Kya Kaasi
Mrig naabhi mein hai kasturi
Ban ban phirat udaasi
