Bangalore, India- February 2012 [50:33 min] On February 11th, Maharaji traveled to Bangalore: a major city sometimes termed the "Silicon Valley of India" for its technology industry. A field had been set up with stage, screen and seats, ready to accommodate hundreds of eager listeners. As the day faded, Maharaji spoke to his audience about the nature of true thirst- and how, while that thirst is innate, we can easily forget it's there.

You look beautiful when peace dances on your face. That's when you look beautiful. And that is your true form- you don't know this form. This is your thirst, and you don't know your thirst. This is your hunger, but you don't know this hunger. And the day you recognize your true hunger, your true thirst, then everything will change for you. Because what you're looking for, you will find within you, very close to you. That's my message.

When it comes to matters of the heart, how can you compromise? The heart will not accept it. The heart wants the reality. The heart wants experience. Not somebody sitting there and telling you that you've had food- you've eaten, and it's done. What is done? So, I say that you're thirsty. You are thirsty to experience that supreme bliss.

Why did I come here? [05:11 min] So, last night around 3am, I was lying there with my eyes open, thinking that there is this world and there are all these religions.
And everyone has been explained that if you go on pilgrimages, do charity, austerity, then after you die, you will go to heaven. So I started thinking that whatever that creator has created, is it pure or not?

The creator doesn't have hands like you and I do, but he also has hands and he has created this entire universe. So, that supreme-being, who himself has created the entire universe- even this earth, on which you are alive now, who created this? Was there a middle-man who created this?
Did someone come from somewhere else, to create this earth? My point is, that this earth too is created by that same supreme-being. So if he has created this, then isn't this heaven? Meaning, wherever his hands would touch. How are pilgrimages formed? Wherever his feet touch, wherever his hands touch, will become sacred. Forget the hands, feet legs, nose, ears- He has created this (earth). So many times he would have touched this, with the hands that he has. And you don't consider this heaven. What beliefs have you got? But people don't consider this heaven, they don't consider this existence to be heaven. All they think is that I'm here and I need to do good deeds, and if I do good deeds, then after I die, I will find heaven.

What is good deed? Ask Muslim, he'll say something else. Ask a Hindu, he'll say something different. Right? Ask a Christian, he'll say something different. They will endorse their books, their scriptures- "This is what is written, this is what is written".
But what is it that you have experienced in your life? Most important thing! What is your experience? Even with all these things, why does the human ask this one question: Why have I come here? Everyone asks. I say that there are two kinds of people- those who have asked, and those who haven't- and those who haven't, will. When they get a beating on their heads, then they will ask. And those who have asked, have searched. So even after reading numerous religious scriptures that there are, why does a human still ask, why did I come here?

Maharaji in Mumbai- 25th Nov, 2009 [39:56 min] You can never compare the peace and happiness which resides in your heart with the one you get from the world. There is no comparison between the two. One is permanent, the other is temporary. If you love the divine one who dwells in your heart then, he would keep on bestowing his love and kindness on you. That giver, the supreme being that resides in your heart gives the gift of breath to those who have faith on him and even the ones who do not have faith on him. He is the true giver.
Today people have drawn so many lines of discrimination. I am a Hindu, I am a Sikh. No one is a human being. Begin to respect yourself as a human being first.
There is only one place, there is only one well, where people come to fill water. This body is a vessel. The only difference is in the vessel. The same water fills all the vessels. God is one. Open the eyes of your heart, then you would realize the value of this knowledge and this breath. Then there would be peace in your life.

Shehnai maestro Bismillah Khan Performs at an event [08:08 min] Bismillah Khan, the master of shehnai (a classical Indian musical instrument) Plays in front of over 1 lakh people and Maharaji. He says "It was my destiny that I got the chance to play in front of you. I dont want anything, I accept whatever you have to offer!"
Khan was perhaps single handedly responsible for making the shehnai a famous classical instrument. He brought the shehnai to the center stage of Indian music with his concert in the Calcutta All India Music Conference in 1937. He was credited with having almost monopoly over the instrument as he and the shehnai are almost synomyms.
If you dont like classical music, do give it a chance. Your opinion would change. Its beyond the boundary of country & lauguage

Ghat ghat mora saiyan [22:03 min] while translates to The Creator dwells in every heart. And that heart is blessed in whom he has manifested.

I'm indebted to this breath [14:44 min] I've responsibilities and I carry them responsibly. But among all these responsibilities, I don't want to forget the responsibility in essence. If I'm indebted to someone, it is my breath. I'm indebted to this breath. If I can see, look, laugh, cry; it's all because this breath came into me. If I am inspired to look for God, it is because this breath came into me. If I've brother, sister and all other relations, it is because this breath came into me. If I've achieved something, it is because of this breath. The day it stops, nothing else will matter.
Your nature is to love this supreme joy. This is your nature and you can't change it. Your nature is to make this life a success. This is your nature.
Somebody asked me on how can I bring peace in this world? I gave him analogy of a football field. If you want to lighten up a football field, what do you need to do? Light the bulbs! All the bulbs have to be lit up. When the bulbs lighten up, so will stadium. This stadium is the world. People say this is impossible. May be it is, but let's try! If all our attempts are in vain, at-least we will know that it is not possible. But try is one thing I can do, and I'm trying.
People ask if I call myself a God. I say, Never. God is within me for sure. Just like he's within you. I'm a human being just like you are. Till the time one human doesn't learn to respect another, peace outside is not possible. And if you want to learn respecting, start by respecting yourself, your breath. Once you learn to respect yourself, you will respect others too.
People ask why am I doing this? Are you doing this for money? I say nope. Let me tell you why I'm doing this. When I received the gift of knowledge from my master, I liked it. And because I liked it, I'm spreading it to others. And I'm spreading it aloud with joy!
People ask what can I do? I can help you, that's all! And that too when you are willing to let me. People say, just give it to me. I say no, first understand your breath. And I don't say "come to me". I say "Quench your thirst, however way you can. If you are unable to, look me up!"

Maharaji at Nagaur, Rajasthan- 11th Nov 2009 [63:48 min] This event was held at Nagaur in Rajasthan on 11th November 2009. Nagaur is the land where Meera Bai was born. Maharaji said,

Hit-anhit pashu pakhsiye jaana,
Manush tan gun-gyaan nidhaana.

Whatever you do in your life, all is covered in this "Hit-anhit". But even animals and birds know what is good for them and what is bad. What do you think of when you get up in the morning? You think of your daily chores, you think about your work. People who do not go out for work think that they have to make their kitchen. Do you know even a crow gets up in the morning, at times even before you. And what does he do after getting up, he thinks how will he get the days food. So, we think we are a human being but we do the same what birds and animals do. So, where is the difference? The difference is that, being a human being, you can attain self-knowledge. There are so many forms of knowledge in this world. The knowledge of art of cooking, knowledge of the art of studying and so on. But amongst all, it has been said that "self-knowledge" is the most supreme of all knowledge. Kabir Das ji has said, That supreme being is within you. The one who created the entire universe, made his home in your heart.

East Champaran, Bihar- 2014 [05:10 min] Do you know who you are? I will tell you. Water doesn't have any shape. Air, doesn't have any color. but when both of them meet, they become cloud. Not forever; it keeps changing. But for sometime, it is cloud. And the drop will change the land where it falls.

Event at Chandrapur, Maharashtra- 22nd November 2009 [46:32 min] What I want to tell you is truly very simple. God says to Arjun, "Neither through pilgrimage, nor through fasting, neither through giving, nor through virtue, can you gain my knowledge." Because if you do not know the truth, whatever you know becomes a lie. If you do not know the truth, then you will not be able to realize whether you are after the truth or after something which is fake. There are so many religions in this world. All of us are vessels in which the same water is filled. The only difference is in the vessel, it is the same water which fills all the vessels. Truth dwells within you.Do you know the creator who dwells in your heart? We search him everywhere on the outside, but never realize that he is seated in our heart. If at all there is heaven, it is here, in this world. Mukti does not happen after death, it happens here.

"Azadi"- The Freedom [04:24 min] Maharaji speaks in Hindi to people in India advocating the voice of the heart calling out for freedom, and peace. He talks of ultimate freedom, which can be felt even in the darkest prison. We may think that we are are free, since we are not jailed. But heart says "NO. You need to earn that Freedom. Real Freedom is when you experience your inner self!". We came empty handed, but we don’t need to go empty handed!
