Today, I will try to enter into the great
personality – KRISHNA!
See, Krishna is the Poornavatara. You should understand from the context why I
am saying he is Poornavatar. He can
enter into your multi-layered thinking.
Please understand, a person like Shakuni! Krishna is a personality who never gives up
on people, even those who are hypocrites!
He continued, continued.....till the end he did not give up. Please understand, till the last day of the
War, Krishna’s army was fighting for Duryodhana, you need to know, the fellow
who ordered Krishna’s arrest! See, when
Krishna went as an ambassador, as per the dharma, Hindu dharma, an ambassador
cannot be arrested or harmed. I think,
all these laws, Hinduism created them first: how to interact with other
countries. But Duryodhana crossed that
law and ordered Krishna’s arrest.
Krishna used his power to save himself; that is secondary. Duryodhana goes to that extreme! But even to Duryodhana, Krishna does not say
‘No’ when Duryodhana comes to Krishna for help before the War! Actually, this Duryodhana coming to Krishna
for help happens after Duryodhana orders Krishna’s arrest and Krishna saves
himself! Even the multi-layered people,
the hypocrites who behave one way here, one way there, even the multi-layered
people, Krishna didn’t give up on them.
That is why I am saying he is a Poornavatar.
It is not that I have only Vidhura and
Pancha Pandavas around me; I have enough of Duryodhanas and Shakunis,
multi-layered people. But it is because
of Krishna and his inspiration that I don’t give up; I continue to handle,
handle, handle, I tell you. Krishna has
set a trend for enlightened beings and incarnations. The ethics of enlightenment, the etiquettes
of enlightenment, behaviour, how it should be, Krishna has set a trend.
Krishna did not say ‘No’ to Duryodhana. But he knows the multi-layered personalities
will always be stupid. Understand, when
you handle different things of your life, if you miss your Integrity, naturally
with the whole life you will miss Integrity.
And you don’t understand that when you miss Integrity with the whole
life, you will desire stupid things! Understand, the worst curse given to
human-beings is having desire for stupid things! You don’t need to destroy somebody; if you
make him have desire for stupid things, that is enough; he is destroyed! If somebody likes stupid things, you don’t
need to destroy him at all; his desire towards stupidity will destroy him!
Please understand, when you are not
integrated with life, the curse life gives you is, it makes you like stupid
things in your life. I tell you, I have
always seen, when you start being disintegrated to life, you may think you are
successful. No! You will start liking stupid things which
will bring your destruction. See this
Duryodhana! He started liking stupid
things! And he was ready to give up his
life for stupid things! And Krishna said
‘Thathaasthu’! What is the need for
bringing Draupadi and pulling her dress, which is not required? Okay, if you want the kingdom, go and take
it, and send the Pandavas out; let them go to the forest. It is actually Draupadi’s Vastra Apaharana
(disrobing of Draupadi), that incompletion only caused the whole War. Otherwise, the War would not have happened. I have also seen, when people start liking
stupid violence, stupidly they are going to utter words, stupid words, stupid
abusive behaviour, I know they have started destroying themselves. But, unfortunately, no teaching of Krishna,
Duryodhana was ready to listen to, or Dusshasana was ready to listen to. When you start liking stupidity, the Master’s
words do not enter into you; that is the worst problem!
The worst thing that can happen to a
human-being is liking stupid things. The
worst thing that can happen to a disciple is the Master not being able to tell
directly what he wants to tell to him, because of the way he behaves. If the Master is not able to tell you what he
wants to tell, then no one can save you, no one can protect you. The Master is Cosmic Life Insurance,
understand! The Master is Cosmic Life
Insurance! Krishna was not able to tell
Duryodhana because the way he behaves with Bhishma’s advice! I tell you, liking for stupid things and
uttering stupid words, behaving in a stupid way, is the self-destructive
component of you. It is like a
cancer! Nobody is required to kill you,
destroy you! Nobody else is required to
destroy you!
Krishna, the most powerful incarnation, the
most complete incarnation, the Poornavatar, he did not give up even on Shakuni! Can you understand? Embodiment of Stupidity, Shakuni, he
(Krishna) did not give up on him!
Hero is a person, whether you like him or
hate him, you cannot avoid him. I tell
you, Krishna is the greatest hero who happened on Planet Earth. People of his time either liked him or hated
him, but cannot avoid him. Liked him or
hated him, but cannot avoid him! What an
amazing personality! When I try to enter
into Krishna’s personality and explain, I feel like I am standing in front of
the Himalayas!
The
whole of Hinduism is only these three: Ganga, Gita, Gayatri. That’s all!
The essence of the whole of Hinduism is these three only – Ganga, Gita,
Gayatri. Gayatri is the Upanishad,
embodiment of the Vedas. Ganga is the
geography of Hinduism. Gita is the
lifestyle of Hinduism. That’s all!
Ganga, Gita, Gayatri. In these
three, Krishna’s contribution is one-third – the Gita. But lifestyle itself is not just one-third of
us; it is 99% of us!
Krishna, it is not that he was supporting
only the Pandavas; he was supporting Duryodhana also as Duryodhana wanted. And, whatever Duryodhana asks, for that he
said ‘Thathaasthu’! His story is one of
the powerful success stories of an incarnation.
Not even one line can be edited!
He has not missed a single thing!
He has completed everything, everything for which he happened! Embodiment of Completion! Amazing ability to play with multi-layered
personalities! People abuse Krishna,
saying that he is cunning, he was so cunning.
No! Krishna was not cunning! He is the embodiment of Love! He was never cunning, he can never be
cunning. He was able to handle
multi-layered personalities. His ability
to handle multi-layered personalities and not giving up on them...!
It is not that even the Pandavas were
completely listening to Krishna; many times they did not listen. He has to struggle, convince them. He organized everything, giving up his own
life. At the last moment, when the War is
about to start, this fool Arjuna is saying, ‘I am not going for the War!’ It is like for years I train you and finally
put you on the stage; but when Inner Awakening is about to start, you
disappear, saying, ‘I am not going to take Inner Awakening!’ If you had told me that first, I would have
trained somebody else! Anyhow.....! I have decided I myself will do.
Krishna, what a personality! He was able to handle simple beings, as
simple as the Gopikas. And he was able
to handle complicated beings, as complicated as Shakuni. As simple as the Gopikas, and as complicated
as Shakuni, for both he stood as a great “Thathaasthu”. When the Gopikas approached with a simple,
beautiful, innocent romance, love, he said, ‘Thathaasthu!’. When Shakuni approached him with a
multi-layered complication, violence, abusive nature, stupid behaviour – it is
Shakuni who instructs Duryodhana, ‘Arrest him!’ – he was able to handle even
then.
Every character in the Mahabharata teaches
so much! Actually, you don’t need to go
to study human psychology to any other country, any other book. See, if you want to learn about business, if
you want to learn about human psychology, if you want to learn about the best
lifestyle, if you want to get enlightened, for all these purposes, if you want
to learn administration, you don’t need anything other than the Mahabharata! Just Mahabharata is enough! Study each character. I tell you, you will not find any more
characters than described in the Mahabharata in your life! Any character you see in your life is mapped
to Mahabharata’s one character. All the
characters you see in your life are either half or full representation of some
character in the Mahabharata. To know
how to handle them, just see how Krishna handled them; handle them the same
way. Even if you want to handle
yourself, see how Krishna handled. How
he knows where violence should be used, where anger should be used, where peace
should be used. He was able to speak
into the listening of the listener. He
was able to speak into the listening of the listener. Listen!
Ability to speak into the listening of the listener! Causing everyone’s reality! Krishna was the embodiment of causing
everyone’s reality. And he was the
embodiment of the ability to speak into the listener’s listening.
This great book, Mahabharata, I can say
this book is a Kalpataru! Again and
again and again, you should read this book to understand the intricacies of
life, the complications of life, and the ability to handle. If you see Mahabharata, that is the physical
visual presentation of the Gita. All the
principles explained in the Gita are portrayed in the form of characters in the
Mahabharata. It is like if you take a
movie of all the principles I am teaching – Integrity, Authenticity,
Responsibility and Enriching – it is exactly the same. All the principles Krishna is teaching in the
Gita, the Mahabharata is a movie of those principles. All the principles he is teaching in the
Gita, the Mahabharata is like a movie of those principles.
Krishna is an amazing personality. He knows what should be told to whom in what
way. He speaks the great truth –
Bhagavad Gita – in the center of the war-field.
But you should know, very funny thing, only three people heard! Krishna, Krishna spoke, Arjuna heard, Bhishma
heard, Sanjaya heard; that’s all! Nobody
else other than these three! Nobody else
other than these three! And he makes
Dharma speak, Yudhishtira speak as very secret, ‘Ashwatthama dead!’ Only Drona heard, nobody else heard! And that also, Dharma (Yudhishtira) didn’t
directly tell Drona; but as if he (Dharma) is speaking to somebody else and
Drona overheard! Krishna knows what to
speak to whom and who should be overheard.
Drona is thinking as if he got a very valid, important information,
State secret about him and his family!
Krishna knows what message to give even to spies. Krishna will speak exactly what he wants,
what message he should send to the opposite guy if the opposite guy’s spy is
sitting next to him. What a play!
I tell you, after reading Krishna, his
works like Gita and Anu Gita...! Krishna
has opened his mouth to give the essence of life five times. Five times he opened his mouth. All the five teachings and his whole life, I
tell you, anybody who reads his life and his five teachings will enjoy his
whole life as a Leela! Somebody among my
sannyasis, I will call “A” and tell him to go and tell to “B”; but that lesson is
for “A”! I will tell him, ‘Go and tell
this to B’; but that lesson is for whom?
It is for “A”! All this you will
enjoy and learn only if you read Krishna.
Only if you read Krishna, you will enjoy all this.
With all this, his tremendous compassion
and not giving up on people! He could
have been like Rama, black & white – either you beat him black and blue, or
give up, go. Krishna was not like
that. I tell you, his compassion was
unimaginable! Even the worst layered
personalities he was only saying, ‘I won’t give up! Let me play the same game, but I won’t give
up on him!’ I tell you, he is the most
honest Insurance Agent. See, all
incarnations are insurance agents of life; but at one point everyone gives
up. But nothing like Krishna who never
gave up!
Remember very clearly, whenever I am
sending some message through you to others, it is for you! It is only a sealed letter which is for
others. If it is an unsealed letter, it is
for you and the other person! I tell you,
if you decide honestly, ‘I will only be a catalyst for causing people’s reality’,
your being will become so vast, you will be able to play this game, you will be
able to play this Leela! I have decided
with all my sincerity, completing completely with myself, that I will be a
cause for everyone’s reality. I tell
you, immediately the huge space and the ability to play this beautiful game
happened in my being! I tell you, just
decide sincerely, authentically, ‘I will be a cause for people’s reality’; you
will become Krishna with the space of Krishna, and the tools Krishna had to
play this game, everything will happen in your life!
If people come to him as simple as the
Gopikas, he lives with them as simple as Radhakrishna. If people come to him as complicated as
Shakuni, he plays with them as complicated as Gitakrishna. I tell you, whether he is Radhakrishna or
Gitakrishna, he does not give up on people.
He does not give up on people!
Shakuni’s intention is not to make Duryodana king, be very clear. His intention was to destroy the Kuru
Vamsha! And Duryodhana was also loving
this destruction! Duryodhana loves his
destruction; that is self-destruction.
Duryodhana was very clear, ‘I may die, but I will not give up!’ It means what? You have already made the first statement, ‘I
will die! I will not allow Pandavas to
live!’ Then what to do? You have made the first statement. Krishna says, ‘Thathaasthu!’ The Pandavas say, ‘We will live!’, and then
Krishna says, ‘Thathaasthu!’ Listening
to everyone’s statement and giving a huge “Thathaasthu!”
I can go on and on and on about
Krishna. Most complicated personality
and most simple personality! I can put
it in this way: Most complicated personality and most simple being! He is more innocent than Mahadeva, Bhole
Baba. He is the most complicated
personality. I am not even comparing in
“complication” Krishna with anyone else.
At least, in “innocence”, I can compare him with Mahadeva. In “complication”, I can’t compare him with
anybody; he is unmatchable!
I tell you, having Krishna’s inner space is
“enjoying life as Leela”. Having
Krishna’s inner space is “enjoying life as Leela”. I tell you, when you bring sincerely into
you, just bring this one decision, ‘I will be a sincere cause for everyone to
realize their reality. I will be a
sincere cause for everyone to realize their reality. I will be a cause for everyone’s
reality. The work I do is for them. If I build a house, it is for them. If I get married, it is for them. If I buy a car, it is for them. If I start a business, it is for them. If I
get a child, that is for them.’ Anything
you do, be very clear, causing others’ reality is the goal, is the purpose, is
the context. That will heal you so much,
I tell you!
The most hurting emotion in life is
violence, whether you carry it towards you or others. And the most healing emotion in the world, or
the truth in the world, is being a cause for others’ reality. The greatest poison in the world is
violence. The greatest medicine in the
world is being a cause for everyone’s reality.
The greatest “amrita” (nectar) in the world is being a cause for
everyone’s reality. Ganga, she is just a
cause for everyone’s reality. That is
why she is “amrita”. She is the “amrita
kumbha”, “amrita kalasha” (nectar pot) because she is just a cause for
everyone’s reality. If you just decide,
‘Let me be a cause for everyone’s reality’, suddenly you will see so much of
healing inside you! Such a vast space
happens to you! See, this vast space
means ability to handle any situation and courage to do anything. You will not be tired at all. You will have the ability to do the “poorva
paksha”, the initial steps, again and again and again. Anybody who retains his ability to retain his
enthusiasm and start anything again from scratch, is a Leader. If Bill Gates retains the ability to do a
start-up now, intense enthusiasm and excitement to do a start-up now, he is a
Leader. I know he is retaining it. Even after you become a billionaire – becoming
billionaire does not make you a leader – ability to retain that intelligence
and interest to be a beginner! That will
happen in you only when you have a large “Krishna space”. This is the greatest blessing you can have in
your life.
So, sit, meditate on Krishna, Kalpataru. Decide sincerely, authentically, you will be
a cause for others’ reality, you will be a cause for others’ reality. Sincerely, with Integrity and Authenticity,
decide you will just be a cause for everyone’s reality. Namah Shivaya!
KALPATARU MEDITATION IN
