dissatisfaction,desire,etc.awakens.WhatcanI do to remainina state youwantus to be in?
A. If we are experiencingaproblem,thatmeansthe rootof the problemiswithinus.Ourouterstate is
the reflectionof ourinnerstate.We try to improve outer state withoutfocusingonourinnerstate.
Howeverthe rootof the problemiswithinus.Unlessanduntil we donotuprootthe root cause of the
problem,itwill continuetoexist.Use Guru’sproximityforspiritual progressandtogetrid of problems
attachedto physical body.Ourfocusshouldbe onGuru energiesandnotonGurus physical body.Once
we learnto do that,our spiritual progressisguaranteed.Guruisthe onlymediuminthiswholeworld
whocan take us within.Once youlearntofocusyourattentiononGuru energies,youwill automatically

Guru’s physical bodyunlessanduntil youdonotlearntofocus yourattentiononGurus spiritual body.
Q7. Whenwill samarpanschool start?We want tolearnthere.
A. Kidsneedtoprayfor it.EvenI wishthere shouldbe a school where kidsare taughtto meditate at
youngage.This will helpthembuildagoodaura and onlygooddeedswill happenthroughtheir
medium.Effortsare goingoninthisdirection,prayandone day it will happen.
Q8. What is Atmaglani (feelingguilty)?How togetrid of Atmaglani?
A. There are 2 typesof Atmaglani.First,we are bornintoatmaglani.A mothersfirstreactionon
receivingherpregnancynewsisveryimportant.If she ishappy,goodenergyreachedthe kid.If she
becomesunhappy,badvibrationsaffectkidsVishuddhi chakra.The kidisbornwithAtmaglani andwill
leadan unsuccessful life.During3rdmonthof pregnancy,whenKundalinienergyentersthe bodyand
givesenergytoall the chakras,vishuddhi chakraisnotable to receive thatenergy.Thusmomsone bad
thoughtcan affectkidsentire life.
Second,we developitduringlife.Forinstance,if amomhas 2 kidsand she constantlykeepspraising
one child,the otherchildwill automaticallygointoatmaglani.Nevercompare yourkidswithothers.Let
people thinkwhatevertheywant,youthinkgoodaboutyourself.If someone isexperiencingconstant
failure,theyshouldgetinvolvedinGurukarya.While doingGurukaryayouexperience successandthat
putsyou on the pathto success.Affirmyourselfwithpositivethoughtsandbeliefsaboutyourself.
Q9. I usedtoreceive lotof AnubhutiswhenIwasa kid.WhyI don’treceive anubhutisanymore?

3. A. Youhave learntto drive yourcar fastbut haven’tlearnttocontrol it.It is okif the speedof yourcar is
slow,butit isveryimportantto control it.You strengthenedyourchittabymeditation,butyourhabitof
puttingitintoothersfaultsmade itimpure as yougathereseveryonesnegativity.Strongchittaislike a
vacuumcleaner,whereveryoufocusiton,it will absorbqualitiesof that.Hence Ialwayssaywhenyou
meditate alone,whenyoumeditatealone youstrengthenthe chitta,butwhenyoumeditatein
collectivity,youlearntocontrol it.
Q10. GurudevI have achievedeverythinginlife.Isthismylastbirth?
A. Yousay you have achievedeverythinginlife,there isnodesire lefttoachieve anythingelse.Butstill a
chittathat is requiredtoattaina karma free state hasnot beenachievedyet.Yourchittastill oftendrifts
intopast.You needto getrid of those past attachments.Second,dolittle self introspection.Donot
attach yourself toanydeedsperformedbyphysical body,surrendereverything.AlsothinkinSukshma,is
there anydesire left?Isthere somethinglefttoachieve?Aftergettingconnectedwithspiritual body,
slowlyyourexistence will ceasetopersist.Secondly,donothave a desire of Moksha.Getconnected
withspiritual body,thenyouwillslowlystartcomingoutof your past.Just don’tdesire forit.Liberation
isnot about achieving,itsaboutgiving,givingawayeverything.
Q11. Since manydaysI feel myBhaavpaksha isreducing.How can I restore it?
A. Youare fallinginyourowneyes.Fallingdownfrommountaintopisa badstate.It createsa feelingof
atmaglani.Self introspectionisa veryimportantstepinspirituality.Peopledon’thave time of self
introspection.Don’tbreakspiritual practice.Meditate regularlyirrespectiveof how yourouterworldis.
It ispossible due tocurrentstate,youmay notbe able tomeditate,butsitregularlyinmyname forhalf
an hour withoutanyexpectation.Eventuallythingswill change.These30minsis a huge package where
youreceive blessingsof lotsof Gurus.
Q12. Amongsadhaksinyour Mokshatrain,how to know whose ticketisconfirmed,whois inRAC,and
whois inwaiting?
A. We have starteda trainjourneyfromMumbai to Delhi.Everyone hasaconfirmedticket.If youask
me in Mumbai where youare going,Iwill sayDelhi.If youaskme will we reachDelhi,Iwill sayyes.
Similarly,thisismylastbirth.Duringearlierbirths,Ihadassuredsoulsthatconnectedwithme that
whentime comes,Iwill give themself-realization.All the knowledge thatIhave receivedduringthese
births,itwas importanttoget ridof it,of distributingit,for me to attainliberation.Thisismylastbirth
to getrid of that knowledge,todistribute it.Knowingthe purposeof mybirth,HimalayanGurushave
transferredtheirknowledge tome.My focuswasneveron Gurusphysical bodybuton the energy
flowingthroughthem.The flowof Chaitanyawassame inall Gurus.
Q13. If a girl’sname changesaftermarriage doesthataffectherprogress?
A. Marriage is notrestrictedtotwo people.Aftermarriage,twodifferentfamiliescome together.Asper
the newfamily environmentshe needstomoldherself.Similarly,the modesof worshipmaybe different
intwo families.The girl needstomaintaingoodrelationswithboththe families.Yourspiritual progress
will notstopwithtwonames.Thinkpositive.
