Today is world environment day. It is sad we have to talk of the heartless killing of a pregnant elephant. 

Have you ever looked into the eyes of an elephant? They are far more sensitive, kind and family oriented than most human beings.

A mother elephant holds her baby for 18 to 22 months in her womb - which is two times more than a human mother does.

How could we do something so heartless to a creature as magnificent as her. Like any human mother, an elephant mother also plays with her baby, grooms them and brings them up with endless love for years.

From where does this arrogance come in human beings to steal their life, their land, their babies, their bodies and their future? We can’t kill them and get away with it just because they can’t penalize us.

How can we be so cruel to mother earth’s children? 

One simple virus could teach us a big lesson, take the lives of so many and break the backs of entire world’s economy. 

Have we  not learned our lessons yet?

One would expect some realisation would have dawned on us. Some heart and some feeling would have awakened. Sadly it does not seem to have happened. We can’t be a nation who worships Vinayaka but kills elephants. India is not this. 

We are a people who woke up every morning and sought blessings not only for all human beings - but for every living creature on earth. 

we chanted 

[ Sarve janah sukhino bhavanthu lokaan samasthaan sukhino bhahavanthu ]- 

Let us return to our soul let us reconnect with who we actually are with take a few moments, and seek forgiveness from all of mother earth's creatures.

Please close your eyes. Place your palms on your heart and internally apologize to every living being on whom you may have perpetrated cruelty.

Let all of us ask forgiveness from that mother elephant who suffered agony, lost her own life and that of her baby helplessly. 

You may open your eyes now. 

On this world environment day let us all make a decision not to buy any object of beauty or prestige that may have been created after hurting an animal.

Let me ask this question to young people.

What do you feel when you see someone who is very different from you? 

What do you feel when you see someone who has different color of skin, or is a part of a different peer group?  

What do you feel when you see someone who has a different dress sense from or has different values ? 

Do you give in to instant judgment? Do you give into dislike? Do you give in to discomfort? Do you tend to isolate them from you? 

Look around you- look at all the mindless violence around you, people being chased on the streets.  People being pelted.  People being insulted and abused. 

All over the world- people of one color, hurt people of another color. 

People of one class hate people of  another class.

People of one religion hate people of another religion.

This is because we have very primitive minds that considers anyone different as a threat. 

Even at home the older siblings alienate the younger sibling, because they are different in age.

Research shows that in an atmosphere of stress, the brain becomes less friendly towards anything that is different and unfamiliar.

That is why social alienation is practised more in organisations that are very competitive. 

That is why in times like today when there is a widespread anxiety; communal violence and racial violence have a tendency to flare up. 

It does not require you to be older to understand this. Even young children have gone through the painful experience of alienation at schools and play grounds. Discrimination and separation is hurtful, no matter how you show it. 

We are the only species on earth that hurts its own species on the basis of skin colour or diversity in appearance.

We as a species share almost 2 million years of evolutionary history. We share the same human experience. 

When are we going to realise that we are a part of this ocean of one humanity? Genetically, neurologically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, we are inseparable from each other. 

I believe that if you have to emerge into world citizens, if you have to emerge into a new generation of human  beings, - you must learn to dissolve your dislike of ‘the different'. Learn to love, respect and accommodate 'the different'. 

You must be watchful. You must take the responsibility to stem violence where ever you see. 

And if you are the one who is being marginalised, do not ever be afraid of being different. Be different with dignity. Be different with courage. 

I want you to be different with an awareness that underneath all these differences, we all fundamentally feel the same feelings and have the same desires. 

This rooting in compassion will prepare and transform you into an extra ordinary heart leader for tomorrow.

The entire Humanity is in fear, that is the state from which we need to find freedom. We need to become free of our fear, not free of our home or free of our husband or wife or children

Seeker: It looks like this continuous staying at home, not going out not mixing with people not doing what we want to do feels  like a total loss of freedom. with all this talk of vaccination and monitoring every human being what i fear is our privacy is getting lost what do you have to say Sri Krishnaji ?

Freedom is a very funny concept.  whether you are inside the house or outside the house we as human beings have always felt that we don’t have freedom.  So this is just a big excuse that we are coming up, know this is basically physical movement, and all the pleasures of life has basically stopped. , and to put it in spiritual terms escape from suffering has basically stopped. The problem is home and you are stuck at home now.  so you are facing your worst problem which is more than corona virus itself. I think many people in the world will be saying  to themselves, you know what, let me have corona rather than staying with my wife, children and all these people around that’s happening.  so, you see people taking out marches saying that we want freedom, we want to be out of our homes.

I think freedom is a very funny concept. its nothing to do with whether you are at home or you are outside home. Then some people have this concept of freedom that I better leave the planet and I go somewhere else.  so, where does it stop? Its more of an inner state.  Freedom is , you need to find freedom from suffering state. Its not getting out of the house. 

The previous question which basically said, the entire humanity is in fear that is the state from which we need to find freedom. We need to become free of our fear, not free of our home or free of our husband or wife or children and keep running out.  that’s not freedom. That’s just escape. But unfortunately if you do that now and you get corona virus and you will move into double fear or triple fear or fear to the power of 10 or 20 which is even more dangerous. Because this virus can get serious. 

Always humanity has been fighting for some kind of freedom,  we actually do not know what freedom we want and from what we want freedom we do not even know that. We just keep fighting for freedom.  

so, privacy yes, privacy is a big issue but unfortunately we seem to be getting into problems in such a way that we keep losing our privacy. We either keep losing our privacy because of problems or we keep losing our privacy because of greed. 

You  take facebook and instagram the people around the world are finding some kind of a freedom on those platforms.So then you want to find freedom on those platforms you obviously loose your  freedom. you lose your privacy, so  I think again privacy is a very funny concept.  todays world there is no privacy at all.  with or without corona there is no privacy. Because I am told in New York if you walk for 5 minutes, you are taken like 24 pictures, 26 pictures? 

After those terrorist attacks.  so, you are constantly being recorded, you are constantly being monitored where you are going, what you are doing, 

Today’s technology, once you have this smartphone its over. They can turn on your cameras, they can turn on your mike, you know this.  they can do anything and everything.  there is no question of any freedom or privacy anymore in our lives. So all these are funny concepts that we should be coming out of.

I think  the most serious issue that we should be addressing is our state.

I have always been saying that our state is constantly sending a signal out and because our state is constantly sending a signal out the universe is going to respond to that signal and thats what is happening.  be it an individual, be it a family, be it societies, be it nations or be it the whole world.

Now, I strongly believe that the more suffering states we are going to live in the more problems and obstacles we are going to face as a humanity. Now corona virus has become a very important topic and a very important subject because it involves us we as human beings because it is directly impacting us, we are falling sick, our friends our relatives , the people whom we know are falling sick. In some cases, people are dying, 

So there is tremendous amount of fear and tremendous amount of anxiety to what’s going to happen to the future? 

Now if you take a very wholistic perspective or a bird’s eye view there are 10,000 species
that are getting extinct every year  on this planet.  we are just another species on this planet .  That’s it. 

So there is a lot going on, on this planet.  the forests are getting destroyed, so many species are virtually extinct everyday. so many new viruses, so many new bacterias are coming to life, ocean life is getting destroyed, over all the entire planet is being you know basically destroyed.  its moving towards death. Thats what we see everywhere now. 

We as humanity are living in a very self-centered state.  Even now the question is, what’s going to happen to us? Whats going to happen in the near future?  So, are we sending out wrong signals? we are in a crisis because we  have sent out wrong, stupid signals. Thats why we are in this crisis. 

Earlier the crisis was very much limited to one’s family, today the fear is felt all over the globe and we realize that the entire humanity is in fear.  so we have to understand that unless and until we change our state , we transform our state,  we learn to live in a beautiful state and send out beautiful signals  out to the universe, I think as humanity will be facing a lot of crisis. 

So we have to become aware of that and we need to actually transform the way we are  living, transform the way we are living outside , inside, we have to come up with more innovative technologies, we have to move in the direction to save this planet.  So if we can as a humanity transform our state, definitely this world will become a more better place.

Namaste

Let me talk to you about a few of the many mystic secrets of Ekam Kshetra - The Oneness Field today.

 Ekam kshetra, is the divine play field where grace overpowers fate.

Here, problems give way for the birth of an extraordinary destiny.

 Most people know that Ekam means - One.

Some know that Ekam means - Oneness.

 But we named this divine kshetra after a revelation happened to Preethaji.

The word "Ekam" refers to the highest state of non-dual consciousness that can be experienced while in the human body.

 Do you know why we call Ekam a kshetra?  Because the special power in this land called us. It had waited for centuries to hold Ekam.  

 Ekam Kshetra is one of the 3 sacred spaces on earth, that has the most extraordinary grid lines conducive to draw infinite cosmic energies into it.  That is why, it is a field; a kshetra and not any ordinary piece of land.

 Ekam is the only temple in the world dedicated to the worship of Hiranya Garbha as extolled in the Rig Veda.

 Hiranya Garbha is the primordial form of the divine in which matter and consciousness, space and time all co-existed before creation emerged from it; where one became the many as we see the universe today.

 It is from the Hiranya garbha that every other form of the divine emerged.

 Ekam is constructed based on the design of a 800 year old revelation.  It is built as a 3 dimensional Surya Yantra. Every morning, when the first rays of the sun touch the Amruta kalasha of Ekam, every inch of the sacred ground gets charged with celestial energy.

 Here you receive 3 blessings.

 At Ekam, you have a direct experience of the divine, in the form you worship emerging from the Hiranya Garbha. You connect to your personal divine and experience intuition, when it comes to the important decisions of your life.

 When you stay for 3 days or more at Ekam Kshetra, and go through the Upasanas and siddhis, you dissolve obstacles on your path. The path to manifesting your sincere and heartfelt intentions gets cleared.

 When you go through the pranoupaasanaas at Ekam kshetra, your kundalini rises and you experience surreal peace. You experience beautiful states of consciousness. 

When this period of seclusion is over, and you are free to travel, make sure you make it to Ekam Kshetra - The Oneness Field, to spend a few days in this divine power place. It will be the best start to a beautiful life.
