Q: Guruji, is there any significance or purpose of giving birth to a child, or life to a soul for a woman except for my personal feelings of becoming a mother or that of giving my parents the joy of becoming grandparents?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: I think your question has no relevance. If you want to be a mother, then that is your choice. Now instead of being a mother, if you want to be a godmother for many children, then that too is your choice. Motherliness is inevitable, and everybody has it. The same holds for fatherhood as well. Whether you become a father to a child or not, you have that element, that fatherliness already present inside you. It is present in your DNA, and that is how it is for everyone.
Whether you are single or married, you have the DNAs of both mother and father present in you. So it is natural that you will unconditionally help and support someone. This is something which you cannot avoid, and there is no need to avoid it also. In Karnataka, the saints used to be called 'Appa' which means 'Father’.
Even in the church, the priests are all celibate; they are unmarried bachelors, yet they are referred to as ‘Father’, is it not so? The nuns are called ‘Mother’, though they have never given birth to a child. Do you know, Mahatma Gandhi was addressed as ‘Bapu’ by everyone in our country, which also means ‘Father’! So this is something that is inherent in our DNA. You do not need to necessarily be a biological parent to be a parent to someone. And even if you are a biological parent, you cannot restrict your parenthood to just those two, three or four children. Your parenthood should expand beyond that. Even God is also called 'Parampita' (Supreme Father). The Mother Divine is called as Jagat Janani (meaning one who has given birth to the entire creation), or Jaganmata (mother of the entire creation). So God is both our father and our mother. It is because divinity is present in every one of us, that the qualities of motherliness and fatherliness are also present within us.

Tiesiog pabusk ir pamatyk, koks esi gražus. Nekaltumas tavyje yra toks tyras. Gyvenimo šokis tavyje gyvena.

Kai vaikaisi smagumų, sumaištis seka tau iš paskos. Kai seki žiniomis, smagumai seka įkandin.

Gyvenimas-kaip užsitęsiąs rytas, svarbu laiku ir žvaliam nubusti.

See a mistake as a mistake, not as "my" or "his" mistake. "My" means guilt and "his/her" means anger.

Deepening the mystery of creation is science. Deepening the mystery of the Self is spirituality.

In the body there are many cells and each of them has its own life. New cells are coming up and old cells are dying but they have no knowledge of you. Yet, these cells are affected by you and you are affected by a single cell. In the same way, know that the big life and the big mind, which encompasses all our minds and all our lives, is what we can give the name - God. It is useless to find a meaning. A flower blooms. What is the purpose of beauty? You may say that it is to enjoy. What is the purpose of joy? There is no purpose to joy, it is an end in itself.

Būkite visi palaiminti šia dar viena nuostabią diena.

Tiesiog atmerk akis, papurtyk galvą ir pasižiūrėk, kas vyksta pasaulyje. Tai nuostabu! Ši visata nuostabi!

Q: Guruji, Why do Angels have wings, what is the symbolism of that? Can you please talk about why we have Angels in the Christian tradition?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: Man had a fascination to fly. He wanted to dominate space. Man could walk the Earth, he could dive into the ocean and swim in the water. But what he could not do is fly. So Angels, whom he considered one step above him, he gave those wings. He thought, Angels have wings because they are more powerful than man and they can fly and can go anywhere they want.

But today with the kind of airplanes we have, Angels will be much slower. We can reach much faster than them. We will leave the Angels behind somewhere. Nobody with wings, however powerful, can fly faster than an aircraft or a helicopter. So it is just a concept that they are more powerful than us, because it is only then that they can help us. Angels mean those who can help us, who are more powerful, more equipped than us. Now don’t imagine that an Angel is going to come with wings, and take you with them, and give you flowers, and all that.

Also, we see many times, Angels are depicted as children. Do you know why are they depicted as children in the Christian tradition? This is to show innocence. The higher you go you have to be pure and innocent inside, not cunning and crafty. Who is cunning and crafty? One who does not have the ability to walk like a king. Someone who has less power has to manipulate and be cunning and crafty. Someone who is very powerful, why would they be cunning and crafty? If you have the ability and the power to do things in a straightforward manner, you would not do anything surreptitiously. You will not need to. All those people who do cunning things have no self-confidence. They don’t believe that they can achieve things at their will; they think they have to do some manipulation to get there. So Angels are depicted as children with wings because they are innocent. They are depicted to have a stout body, just like a two or three year old baby. If you see all the Michelangelo paintings, you will see most of the angels are babies. It simply represents innocence and purity, and then ability - more ability than normal human beings.

I tell you inside you there is an angel. In Christian tradition it is said that everyone has a guardian angel. It is not that they are only guarding you, you are part of that guardian angel; you are that! You simply have to realize that you are an angel. You have the power to do what you want to do. Know this and relax.

The Master is one who makes you aware of yourself,
who gives you the knowledge of who you really are.
~ Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

When you don’t respect yourself, things add value to you.
When you respect the self, you add values to the things.
~ Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

Make others comfortable and you will see that
Nature will take care of your comfort.
~ Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

Show mast go on, are you ready?

Q: Guruji, Like a GPS you guide us to our goal and destiny, but what is our goal and destiny?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: You should make a list of what is not your goal.
I want you to discover for yourself what your goal is and what is it that you want to do. Choice is yours, blessings are mine.

One thing you should know is that you are very lucky. You are in a time where you are leading the world. You are in a time that will go down in history as a big transition from a self-centered, hardened society to a beautiful world.

Laisvė - tai išsilaisvinimas iš poreikio būti laisvu.

Sotumas - tai išsilaisvinimas iš poreikio būti sočiu.

Sotumas - tai issilaisvinimas is poreikio valgyti maista.

Numirus is bado, tau to tikrai nebereikes ir busi pomirtini gyvenima sotus

....kai pagalvoji, gyvūnai turi daugiau išminties nei žmones. Gyvūnas savo palikuonis moko savo pavyzdžiu: kaip pjauti avis, kaip sukti lizdus ir t.t. Tai yra savaime tobula.

Žmones gi, agituoja, kala į galvas, pamoklslauja, rėkia, muša kartais net.... Tai neveikia.... Nėra pavyzdžio..... Išmintis perteikiama
tik DARANT.... Agitacija ar pamokslas - nėra išmintis. Tai nekabina ir nekabins....
Galima visai nieko nesakyti, vaikas persiims visais mūsų pavyzdžiais puikiai, automatiškai.

Pavyzdys yra pavyzdys. Nediskutuosiu čia apie blogus - gerus pavyzdžius. Nes patirtį perima tą, kuri įdomi, arba kuri reikalinga, ir todėl įdomi...
