    The video begins with an introduction of a series featuring devotional songs, spiritual discussions, and talks by various individuals associated with a spiritual institution. The practice of having disciples repeat what they learn from a guru is mentioned as a technique used both in ancient times and today. The speaker opens the session with a respectful greeting to his guru, spiritual teacher, and viewers.

  • 00:05:00 - 00:10:00

    The speaker recalls important points left from the last session, highlighting advice from Amma (spiritual leader) on facing life courageously, referred to through a story about a prince receiving an arrow to his chest. This story is used to illustrate the quality of fearlessness and the ideal traits of a mother exemplified by the queen in the story.

  • 00:10:00 - 00:15:00

    Amma's first advice is to always move forward and face challenges head-on, as depicted in the story of the princely battle. The speaker emphasizes the importance of courage, facing one's challenges directly without retreating, and how this attitude leads to growth and eventual success.

  • 00:15:00 - 00:20:00

    Continuing with the messages from Amma, the second advice focuses on overcoming ego. A story illustrates that ego can be more repulsive than any physical impurity, urging the renouncement of pride. The lesson is emphasized by describing an incident where the ego of a disciple prevented a positive action.

  • 00:20:00 - 00:25:00

    The third piece of advice from Amma warns that spiritual advancement requires interacting with the world and enduring its challenges. Only by facing and learning from external adversity can one truly measure personal growth. The speaker encourages embracing worldly interactions and subsequent experiences as part of spiritual learning.

  • 00:25:00 - 00:30:00

    The speaker discusses the dual experiences of receiving honor and insult, emphasizing the importance of remaining even-minded in both circumstances. These lessons from Amma underline the need for humility and emotional resilience, sharing personal anecdotes about public interactions and inner spiritual balance.

  • 00:30:00 - 00:35:00

    The narrative introduces figures exemplifying ideal maternal, paternal, and filial virtues, illustrating broader philosophies with stories of exemplary parents and children demonstrating selfless love, courage, and respect in adversity. These stories reflect the qualities that should be inherent in spiritual and familial roles.

  • 00:35:00 - 00:40:35

    Concluding with the wisdom of a guru, who advocates forgiving severe challenges and enmity, the video reflects a holistic spiritual vision. The speaker includes reflections on Hindu identity, cultural education shortcomings, and the importance of understanding personal strength against communal challenges. The piece closes with a call to propagate Amma's teachings.

    know the
  • 00:03:10
    responsibilities the
  • 00:03:13
    the responsibilities so first one we
  • 00:03:16
    will
  • 00:03:17
    say long time back I asked which is the
  • 00:03:22
    which area of work is good for
  • 00:03:25
    me so gave me a very brief answer
  • 00:03:30
    the answer is Amma Amma told
  • 00:03:33
    me you in your story you said that the
  • 00:03:38
    prince received the arrow on his
  • 00:03:42
    chest that is the that is the answer
  • 00:03:45
    which Amma gave me when I asked her
  • 00:03:47
    which area of work is best for me Amma
  • 00:03:50
    gave simple answer Amma said you told
  • 00:03:53
    the story long time back that the prince
  • 00:03:57
    received arrow on his chest I was
  • 00:03:59
    shocked because I had told this story
  • 00:04:03
    story couple of times in some other
  • 00:04:05
    places outside the the
  • 00:04:08
    am but I I was surprised how Amma came
  • 00:04:11
    to know about the story that is the one
  • 00:04:14
    good example how Amma knows everything
  • 00:04:17
    somewhere I told the story a few times
  • 00:04:19
    in some places about Amma knew the story
  • 00:04:22
    the story goes like this this is the
  • 00:04:24
    ideal
  • 00:04:25
    mother in a kingdom the king had died
  • 00:04:30
    and the the Young Prince the the queen
  • 00:04:34
    was ruling the kingdom and the prince
  • 00:04:37
    prince was very young just about the the
  • 00:04:40
    maybe 20 25 years of old and the
  • 00:04:44
    neighboring Kingdom attacked this this
  • 00:04:47
    Kingdom therefore the prince had to go
  • 00:04:50
    for war so he the Young Prince went to
  • 00:04:54
    battle and in the afternoon a soldier
  • 00:04:57
    came back running and he informed the
  • 00:05:00
    queen oh Queen I have very sad news I
  • 00:05:04
    come to tell you that our princess our
  • 00:05:07
    Prince has died I saw him I I saw his
  • 00:05:11
    body he had a wound on his back and he
  • 00:05:15
    is lying dead on the battlefield he had
  • 00:05:18
    a wound on his back the queen very
  • 00:05:22
    calmly replied I refused to believe but
  • 00:05:25
    the soldier again said no Queen I have
  • 00:05:28
    seen your son with the the with a the
  • 00:05:32
    the dead body of your son with a wound
  • 00:05:33
    on his back the queen said I will come
  • 00:05:36
    to the battlefield show me so the queen
  • 00:05:39
    and the soldier they went to the
  • 00:05:40
    battlefield and sure enough the prince
  • 00:05:44
    was lying dead on the battlefield but
  • 00:05:47
    his the wound was not on his back but
  • 00:05:50
    the wound was on his
  • 00:05:53
    chest and the queen told the soldier see
  • 00:05:58
    that is my son
  • 00:06:00
    you said that the wound is on his back
  • 00:06:03
    my NE my son will never receive a wound
  • 00:06:06
    on his back he will receive the wound on
  • 00:06:08
    his chest he will face the enemy and he
  • 00:06:11
    will receive he has the courage and
  • 00:06:14
    fearlessness to receive the wound on his
  • 00:06:16
    chest and that is what amama said always
  • 00:06:20
    move forward be ready to to
  • 00:06:23
    receive bounds on our chest not on not
  • 00:06:27

    so that is the one first story first
  • 00:06:32
    advice by Amma is always move forward be
  • 00:06:36
    ready to face any challenges Amma with
  • 00:06:39
    us and therefore we should be ready to
  • 00:06:41
    face any challenges a very beautiful SLO

  • 00:07:30
    they
  • 00:07:30
    never attempt anything in their life
  • 00:07:33
    because for for fear of obstacles

  • 00:09:00
    first advice number one for all of
  • 00:09:03
    us and I surprised when said that you
  • 00:09:06
    you told the story that the prince
  • 00:09:09
    received the the wound on his chest so I
  • 00:09:13
    was shocked because I was that is why
  • 00:09:16
    you know Amma knows everything I told
  • 00:09:18
    the story somewhere outside but Amma
  • 00:09:21
    knew that she that was advice she gave
  • 00:09:23
    me so that is first number one advice
  • 00:09:26
    then the second advice second advice am
  • 00:09:28
    told she in s General she was saying I
  • 00:09:30
    remember say I can tolerate anything but
  • 00:09:35
    the only thing I cannot tolerate is
  • 00:09:40
    ego I can tolerate anything but I cannot
  • 00:09:44
    tolerate ego so there was one one
  • 00:09:47
    incident the in the in asham the guru
  • 00:09:51
    was sitting outside and he could see one
  • 00:09:53
    of his senior disciples near the Gate of
  • 00:09:56
    the Asam a man was trying to come inside
  • 00:09:59
    but the disciple stopped him and pushed
  • 00:10:02
    him out and closed the gate and came
  • 00:10:05
    away the the the the man from outside
  • 00:10:08
    made many attempts to come inside but
  • 00:10:10
    the disciple went on pushing him he
  • 00:10:13
    closed the gate and came back and
  • 00:10:17
    he little with pride he told the
  • 00:10:20
    guru guru that man was drunk he was
  • 00:10:24
    trying to come inside I pushed him I
  • 00:10:26
    pushed him away he's drunk he was Sting
  • 00:10:30
    sing he was he was stinking I knew he
  • 00:10:32
    was
  • 00:10:33
    drunk then there for a moment the
  • 00:10:38
    guru remained quiet then the guru said
  • 00:10:41
    there is something more stinking
  • 00:10:45
    here there is something more sinking
  • 00:10:48
    here and then the disciple
  • 00:10:52
    surprised Guru what is that I don't feel
  • 00:10:55
    anything stink then the guru said yes
  • 00:10:58
    the stinking your
  • 00:11:01
    ego your ego is more stinking than his
  • 00:11:05
    the what do you call it
  • 00:11:08
    liquor that man was coming to see me he
  • 00:11:11
    wanted to somehow stop drinking he was
  • 00:11:15
    desperately he was coming to see me but
  • 00:11:17
    you thought you are very you're pure and
  • 00:11:20
    that man is a dirty man therefore you
  • 00:11:22
    pushed him away and therefore I remember
  • 00:11:25
    the the dirt dirtiest thing in this
  • 00:11:28
    world is the Pride the ego that I am a
  • 00:11:31
    great SAA if I think have I have chanted

    chanted 60 lakhs gatri manra fine but I
  • 00:11:47
    should not say that okay that is the
  • 00:11:49
    second one second advice which gave me
  • 00:11:53
    so the two advisor have seen now the
  • 00:11:55
    third
  • 00:11:57
    advisor you can see the
  • 00:12:03
    by usually in the olden days yes I used
  • 00:12:07
    to do a lot
  • 00:12:09
    of lot of japa sitting in my sitting in
  • 00:12:14
    my room I used to do a lot of japa and
  • 00:12:18
    so when I went to then I said I'm doing
  • 00:12:21
    lot of japa Etc I told Amma then Amma
  • 00:12:24
    said said very good my son but
  • 00:12:26

    is that is of course necessary
  • 00:12:59
    lot of Ja lot of Etc lot of AR lot of s
  • 00:13:04
    necessary but at the same time we have
  • 00:13:07
    to know how much we have improved it
  • 00:13:10
    doesn't
  • 00:13:11
    mean I cannot I should never say I have
  • 00:13:14

  • 00:13:16
    the same time I should I should know
  • 00:13:19
    that now okay now my the my Mantra is
  • 00:13:23
    working now the that way I have to when
  • 00:13:27
    even only when I work work in the
  • 00:13:29
    outside Work World when I interact with
  • 00:13:32

    world only then I can I can understand
  • 00:13:38
    how much I have progressed in spiritual
  • 00:13:42
    life so that that it's only for
  • 00:13:44
    awareness not not ego I don't mean ego
  • 00:13:47
    that awareness should be there okay now
  • 00:13:49
    okay better now I feel better now that
  • 00:13:52
    is that thing that the third advice said
  • 00:13:56
    that you have to get the
  • 00:13:59
    beating and kicking of the outer world
  • 00:14:02
    of the of the of the
  • 00:14:14
    world unless 100 years we may s for
  • 00:14:17
    meditation and but unless we get the the
  • 00:14:21
    beating and kicking of the world we
  • 00:14:23
    cannot improve that that Amma told me
  • 00:14:25
    and within a few months from amuri I was
  • 00:14:28
    in Bangalore
  • 00:14:34
    it happened that's happened so and so I
  • 00:14:37
    will tell you the the fourth one also so
  • 00:14:40
    we know that we sasis brah
  • 00:14:43
    brah
  • 00:14:45
    swach they they get lot of namaskaram so
  • 00:14:49
    we used to get lot of namaskaram and
  • 00:14:51
    when when we gotas The namaskar
  • 00:14:55
    increased so then I
  • 00:14:57
    told feeling very
  • 00:14:59
    uncomfortable people coming in doing
  • 00:15:02
    namaskar like this so the ego will come
  • 00:15:06
    I told go doing namaskar form long long
  • 00:15:10
    queue and they come and do namaskara
  • 00:15:13
    feeling Comfort Inc comfortable
  • 00:15:16
    uncomfortable you go make come said
  • 00:15:19
    don't worry son you will get not only
  • 00:15:22
    namaskar you will get lot of insults
  • 00:15:25
    also they will abuse you also they will
  • 00:15:28
    insult you and abuse also you will get
  • 00:15:30
    both so the yeah and is very correct
  • 00:15:34
    also we are getting both now
  • 00:15:44
    so so we should be equal minded in in
  • 00:15:47
    honor and dishonor so when people insult
  • 00:15:51
    me or when they honor me it doesn't mean
  • 00:15:54
    I I give the example of this the son and
  • 00:15:58
    Amma the son says your stti does not
  • 00:16:02
    increase my glory your indifference does

    advice of is the the when we go into the
  • 00:16:33
    outside world only then we can we
  • 00:16:36
    can understand how much we have grown
  • 00:16:38
    spiritually and

    lastly said that you will get both don't
  • 00:16:43
    worry you will get both so we should be
  • 00:16:45
    ready when we go to work in the field

    especially traveling trains or trains
  • 00:16:50

    andam we should be ready we should be
  • 00:17:02
    very trained and we should be able to
  • 00:17:04
    give them good answers that is the thing
  • 00:17:06
    so I have told you the best mother the
  • 00:17:10
    best mother is he was seeing her own son
  • 00:17:13
    lying dead on the battle field but she
  • 00:17:16
    was happy she did not cry she may be sad
  • 00:17:19
    feeling inside but she was not crying
  • 00:17:22
    she was look at my mother that is the
  • 00:17:24
    way that is the ideal mother how a
  • 00:17:27
    mother should train her children now we
  • 00:17:30
    see only blind attachment I don't say
  • 00:17:33
    all of all but most of us know the
  • 00:17:36
    mothers they they should have that the
  • 00:17:38
    the balance of affection and training
  • 00:17:43
    also discipline also affection and
  • 00:17:46
    discipline that balance is what we want
  • 00:17:48
    that is the ideal mother now I will give
  • 00:17:50
    you the example of an ideal
  • 00:17:53
    father
  • 00:17:56
    once the king the King was going in his
  • 00:18:00
    Chariot The Chariot was there and the
  • 00:18:02
    King was The Chariot and behind the
  • 00:18:04
    Chariot was the king's bodyguard it was
  • 00:18:07
    a young man so the King was going on the
  • 00:18:09
    road and then when he stopped
  • 00:18:12
    they they were prisoners prisoners were
  • 00:18:15
    on the road so they were sleeping the
  • 00:18:18
    roads the prisoners were made to clean
  • 00:18:21
    the roads so they thly The Bodyguard he
  • 00:18:24
    stepped down from The Chariot he went up
  • 00:18:27
    to up up to prisoner
  • 00:18:30
    prisoner was sweeping The Bodyguard went
  • 00:18:32
    up up to the prisoner and he touched the
  • 00:18:35
    feet of the
  • 00:18:37
    prisoner the King was
  • 00:18:40
    shocked his own bodyguard getting down
  • 00:18:43
    from The Chariot going up up to pris
  • 00:18:45
    prisoner is a prisoner sweeping the
  • 00:18:47
    street and the the body guard touching
  • 00:18:50
    the feet of pris prisoner the King was
  • 00:18:55
    shocked then when the body came back the
  • 00:18:57
    king asked why did you do that
  • 00:19:00
    The Bodyguard said oh King that is my
  • 00:19:04
    father King was again surprised he told
  • 00:19:07
    his Minister go and find out what is the
  • 00:19:11
    crime that man has
  • 00:19:13
    committed the king asked the minister go
  • 00:19:16
    and find out what what crime that man
  • 00:19:19
    has been committed so he
  • 00:19:21

    murder that is why he has been
  • 00:19:35
    imprisoned but the king said no it is
  • 00:19:39
    not possible a man who has trained his
  • 00:19:43
    son so wonderfully cannot be guilty of
  • 00:19:47
    any serious crime release him the king
  • 00:19:50
    said
  • 00:19:52
    remember a man who has trained his son

    crime is something wrong release
  • 00:20:11
    him release him and the pris was
  • 00:20:15

    father who had trained his son so
  • 00:20:21
    wonderfully that is that is how his
  • 00:20:23

    have seen the ideal son now let us see
  • 00:23:33
    the ideal
  • 00:23:34
    Guru there's a great Guru who had
  • 00:23:36
    married disciples and among the
  • 00:23:39
    disciples the one disciple was the
  • 00:23:42
    prince of the
  • 00:23:43
    Kingdom so when they were taking class
  • 00:23:46
    the the king entered the Asam and the
  • 00:23:50
    guru continued to take class and the
  • 00:23:53
    King got very very angry this man I am

    was ignorant the guru is the guru is God
  • 00:24:19
    himself and when he is taking
  • 00:24:22

  • 00:24:30
    have that kind of wisdom he got very
  • 00:24:33

    tragedy so I hope you understand the
  • 00:32:54
    story The Flower now our Kings Kings ETA
  • 00:32:59
    they have been they lost their Kingdom
  • 00:33:02

  • 00:33:07
    K some of the some of the kings in car
  • 00:33:10
    you can see they have nothing everything
  • 00:33:13
    they reduced to the
  • 00:33:16
    pen that is what my grandfather told me
  • 00:33:20
    and one more thing I want to tell about
  • 00:33:22
    what my man man I also remember he told
  • 00:33:26
    me lot of things so we
  • 00:33:28
    just outside our school we had the our
  • 00:33:31
    the playground the common playground and
  • 00:33:35
    our school was playing football within
  • 00:33:38
    another school and we of course we won
  • 00:33:40
    the we won the match I was
  • 00:33:43
    watching the man sir was standing behind
  • 00:33:46
    me we all watching and Manon sir made a
  • 00:33:50
    very very beautiful remark I was shocked
  • 00:33:52
    I was only 15 years old he was telling
  • 00:33:56
    the the so for we we won the our school
  • 00:33:59
    won St St Michaels we won the match
  • 00:34:02
    because we we scored three goals and the
  • 00:34:06
    31 we got one gold we gave them three
  • 00:34:08
    Golds so we won and man s was
  • 00:34:13
    telling even a football
  • 00:34:16
    team and hockey team
  • 00:34:19
    knows that the forwards and the
  • 00:34:22
    backwards are one
  • 00:34:24
    team when will we Hindus know this
  • 00:34:28
    understand
  • 00:34:29
    this I did not take it seriously because
  • 00:34:31
    I was only 15 years old I I yeah it is
  • 00:34:35
    correct yes yes correct he was
  • 00:34:38
    indicating if a football team knows the
  • 00:34:41
    forwards the the center
  • 00:34:44
    forward
  • 00:34:46
    left left inside right inside the left
  • 00:34:50
    out right out like that then we have the
  • 00:34:52
    backs so the forwards back the half the
  • 00:34:56
    backs and goalkeeper so the football
  • 00:34:58
    team and the HCK team know that the
  • 00:35:01
    forwards and the back backs they on one
  • 00:35:04
    field if the forwards are very strong
  • 00:35:06
    but we have a weak back the the team
  • 00:35:10
    will lose the game The Backs also very
  • 00:35:13
    strong so since I was 15 years old I did
  • 00:35:16
    not take it seriously now I am thinking
  • 00:35:19
    it is how my our man Manon sir in the 19
  • 00:35:24
    1970s he told told me even a football
  • 00:35:29
    team and a hockey team know that
  • 00:35:31
    forwards and back backs are one team
  • 00:35:35
    when will we Hindus know now I am
  • 00:35:38
    understanding the real the seriousness
  • 00:35:41
    of what my master said 50 years
  • 00:35:46
    back0 50 years back you see how correct
  • 00:35:49
    it is when when we Hindus know that the
  • 00:35:52
    forwards and the backs are one team we
  • 00:35:55
    are all we are all Hindus Sarma when
  • 00:35:57
    will we realize that now I am realizing
  • 00:36:00
    realizing the the serious of of my
  • 00:36:03
    master who Tau told me that at that time
  • 00:36:06
    I was 15 years old I did not take it
  • 00:36:08
    seriously now I understand the
  • 00:36:11
    seriousness so let us understand this
  • 00:36:14
    also one more point I left
  • 00:36:18
    this this regarding the the in
  • 00:36:25
    the you know the the the the what you
  • 00:36:28
    call it the five P they were thirsty you
  • 00:36:32
    know the story very well they first
  • 00:36:34
    first the S went in search of water and
  • 00:36:38
    then he he found the the the pool of
  • 00:36:41
    water he the he he started when he start
  • 00:36:46
    drinking he heard a voice the voice said
  • 00:36:49
    do not drink it's my water first answer
  • 00:36:51
    my questions then drink but the the S
  • 00:36:54
    did not listen he drank and he fell down
  • 00:36:57
    died n also same thing we know the
  • 00:37:02
    story in mahabarata Aruna and all four
  • 00:37:06
    of them they came they drank the water
  • 00:37:08
    and they died then yudish came and when
  • 00:37:10
    yudish was about to drink the water the
  • 00:37:12
    voice said
  • 00:37:14
    stop so you stop and what what you want
  • 00:37:17
    to do the the said I will ask you
  • 00:37:20
    questions you know we know the story I
  • 00:37:22
    not elaborate there many stories and
  • 00:37:25
    then the the most important question
  • 00:37:27
    question we remember is that the will
  • 00:37:30
    ask him what is the most surprising
  • 00:37:33
    thing in this world what is the most
  • 00:37:36
    surprising thing in this this world and
  • 00:37:38
    then will
  • 00:37:52
    say
  • 00:37:54
    so said he every day they see people
  • 00:37:59
    dying and going to yamao but those who
  • 00:38:02
    remain here think they are going to stay
  • 00:38:04
    here forever what is more surprising in
  • 00:38:07
    that than that that is important
  • 00:38:09
    question and one one other question he
  • 00:38:12
    asked
  • 00:38:14
    was the asked him what makes a Brahman
  • 00:38:19
    is it birth or learning or conduct what
  • 00:38:23
    makes the Brahman is it birth or is it
  • 00:38:26
    learning or
  • 00:38:29
    conduct remember Ban's words what was
  • 00:38:34
    speaking Vasa it is Vasa vas's words
  • 00:38:38
    yudish said it is neither birth nor
  • 00:38:41
    learning which make Brahman it is it is
  • 00:38:44
    neither birth nor learning which make
  • 00:38:46
    the Brahman it is only the Good Conduct
  • 00:38:49
    only character and culture that make the
  • 00:38:52
