Gurudev, how come some people come to The Art of Living, experience this path, and then suddenly change their mind and go away. I really cannot understand this.
See, there are different types of people on this planet. Again I am telling you, when for someone time is not good, they go away, then later on they come back. People stop all this and suddenly, they start again. All these different types of people are ... -
Gurudev, how important is it for a seeker to be close to his Guru's physical body presence. Can we realize ourselves by just remembering our Guru?
Yes, it’s possible. You think of someone whom you don't like, immediately something happens in your body, isn't it. When you dislike somebody and you think of them, something happens in your body, and then don't you think that somethin ... -
Gurudev, the self is God. The empty space we experience in meditation, which is called the soul, is it also called the ego, or is it something in between the ego and the self? Please enlighten me on this.
Ego is that which needs somebody else to express itself. Ego needs two and there are many definitions of ego. One of the definitions of ego is, it is the antidote to being natural, and naturalness is the antidote to ego. Second, on anothe ... -
I thank you for accepting me the way I am, without fear or complaint, for sharing your love with us so dearly and generously. I bow down to the divine in you and in me.

Gurudev, you once mentioned that the movie has already been filmed and now it’s all happening. Could you please explain more on this mystery of time?
Yes, the movie has already been shot and you are just seeing it. That's from one dimension. .Mysteries cannot be explained, it can only be experienced. Mystery is only there to create a wow! And the wow is when the mind transcends and goes int ... -
Gurudev, when you were here in April and we had satsang, I saw a person who was not physically here. Can you say something about this phenomenon?
Yes, many experiences happen in life but you don't have to give too much importance to it. You may see things, you may hear things, you may smell things, you may taste - all the five senses can get different experiences, but you just take them as th ... -
Gurudev, according to the law of attraction, we attract everything. There is a trend in us where we train ourselves to attract all kinds of wealth, especially material goods, and also partners, love, friends, etc. What is your opinion about this phenomenon?
The law of attraction is an ancient concept. It’s nothing new. You call it the law of attraction or you call it the karma theory, it’s the same. What you need to know is: you are much bigger than that. You are much more than the law of a ... -
Gurudev, sometimes I find it difficult to explain to other people the benefits of meditation.
See, you don't try to convince people who don't know what meditation is. Even if they get convinced, they will not do it. So better leave it. Say to them, "You have not meditated, you have missed something great in your life", that' ... -
(A member of the audience asked a question relating to terrorism, but it was inaudible)
The horrible crimes that people are doing today, is very unfortunate. We need to have pity on these people. They have not gotten proper education. They are victims of the education system. Just imagine, you were born in that place and you ... -
Dear Gurudev, congratulations for the meeting with the FARC in Cuba and their resolution to adopt non-violence. Is there a way that you can also approach Hamas leaders from Gaza to inspire them to do the same, as well as Israeli government members?
Yes. You know, when politics gets involved, somewhere sincerity disappears and ambition steps in. In some places, people are happy that there are conflicts, because conflict is a cash cow for them. Many people don’t want world peace! Or el ...
