| Poojya Guruji, Why people are neglecting their resposibilities and duties in home (in the stage of grehastha asrmam)and doing only Sudarsanakriya, not taking care of their own family.Is it correct?They wanted to do seva in the public places and not in home eventhough people are sick and old, and need help.I don't think Guruji is insisting like this in your teachings.Guruji please show us which way we should go and make us understand.Iam doing sudarsana kriya more than 10 years and continuing it and taking care of my family as well.But I couldn't findout the answer for the above question.please help me.With respect, Jaya |

| Question by: Jyothi |
| Hi, I recently took Art of Living COurse 1 in Santa Clara,CA. I try to do Sadhana every day, even then I may miss occasionally. I belive that every action can be controlled by the mind and by the concentration of the mind, even if you are 1000 miles away. But that can be very dangerous, always preach the importance of peace and spiritual priority along with all your talks. I also get worried for very silly reason and the whole week /month will be gone by some thoughts. Then I rember you in my mind and the postive words.I picture in myself that you could see me and you acknoweldge my presence. Do you really know when a person keeps yourself as guru in one's mind? |
| Answer : Sri Sri : Go deep in the knowledge; Know that Guru is not just the body, but, Guru is the Presence |

| Dear Gurujii belong to youI am working as a Nurse for mentally ill patients in a USA hospital.Am seeing many different patients with varied psychiatric diagnoses daily but most of these patients have one thing in common-borderline personality disorder.It is ery difficult to deal with them because they remains at the border of everything-violence and calm,happy and sad,friend and foe, all good and all bad etc and at any time could go from one end to another.How do you describe this?As am new to psychiatric field, i was astonished to see the borderline personality disorder as a major co-morbidity among psychiatric patients.In general life,i havent recognised borderline personality as a problem but simply termed many of them as trouble makers-however now understand them more easily.What is your view to this type of personality people in general life? |

| Question by: Suresh |
| Dear Guruji,I am carrying a doubt from my childhood and i couldn't get the proper answer for that yet. I read Bhagavat Gita but sometime i get totally confused.My question is How Kunti Devi got Six children from the "Pancha Bootha" . It says Karna is the son of "Sun" . How can we agree logically with that ? Like Bhima is the son of Vayu etc etc. So all these are the panchaboothas. How can a womb form a child without a man's sperm ? Is it all illusion ? Is it all stories ? Or i dont get any logical answer for these. I am anxiously waiting for the reply. Forgive me if i am wrong.Eagerly waiting for the replyJai GuruDev.Suresh |

| Jai Gurudev,Guruji, am writing this query from Doha, Qatar. My elder was one of the founder member of AOL here in Qatar. He died 25 December 2005 due to stomach cancer. My brother had attended all the courses (i think except teachers course). When no teacher was there here, my elder was the person is to take the classes (Friday follow-up). Everyday morning 3:30 a.m. he is to get up and do all types of AOL kriya. Before, his death (due to cancer)the pain he had gone though was terrible. My mother also had the same problem and she died peacefully without knowing her or any pain. But a sincere AOL member of my brother, he was very cautious about everything (including food), his end (3 years he suffered very much. Guruji, what is my question even a person who was very particular in his life and he was very helpful to his family (not only his wife and children)why God has punished him so much (ok, death is essential for everybody) but the suffering he had for more than 3 years?After seeing his suffering, myself and his brother-in-law (we both did basic course) has stopped going Friday follow-up kriya, here (but we are doing kriya everyday in our house).Sorry Guruji, if I waste your valuable timings. |

| Question by: SASI |
| Guruji what is your motivation behind of success.. |
| Answer : SRI SRI : There is no question of success if you have nothing to gain. There is nothing to gain if you have only come to give and serve. Success indicates non-supremacy. Success means what? It indicates that there are chances of failure. If something is supreme there is nothing to lose. People running after success only exhibit their limitations. Success means crossing a limit. To cross a limit you need to assume that you have a limit. Assuming a limit is underestimating yourself. If you have no boundaries then where is your success? If you have limitless access then there is no success. You don't say that you successfully drank a glass of water, because it is well within your capabilities. But when you do something that is beyond your perceived limits you claim success. When you realise your unboundedness then no action is an achievement. Anyone who claims to be successful only reveals his limitation. If you feel very successful it means that you have underestimated yourself. All your gains can only be smaller than you. Taking pride in any gains is belittling yourself |

| Guruji,I am a perosn who find everyone as same and equal importand and as the part of the supernatural power. I love every human being as I love myself or my ralatives. But many time I find the society around me is such humanless, blamaing others and backstabbing even colleagues. When one person is away they find whole the fault of him/her and gossiping and try to prove they are better. I can't really stand to such situations. Since I am not in to those, I feel am lonley sometimes and I know that for our wellbeing we require a society around us. But I cant compromise on my charector and join some vicious circle. Kindly advice? |
| Answer : SRI SRI : It is not enough simply to have the fragrance. We have to know how to spread it. Flowers have the fragrance, but it is the wind that comes and spreads it. In the same way, each one of us is wonderful within -- we are beautiful, caring, and loving. But we do not know how to spread the fragrance. Satsang is that wind which comes and spreads this fragrance to everyone.

| Question by: joe |
| how can i control emotions like sadness and angry.how can i overcomethe situation, when i feels to cry due to some ones insulting? |
| Answer : SRI SRI : All the problems that you face in life are because you attach over importance to the events. The events grow bigger while you remain smaller. Say, for example, you are riding a motorbike on a busy motor way and in front of you there is another vehicle emitting exhaust fumes. You have three options.
1. You can complain, somehow bear with it, and still follow the vehicle.
2. You can slow down or wait for some time to allow the vehicle to move far away from you.
3. You can use your skill, overtake the vehicle, and forget about it.
As in the first case, most of you stick on the events and are miserable, like inhaling fumes throughout your journey.
In the second case, you don't get permanent relief, as another bigger vehicle might come in front of you. Like that, running away from events is not the permanent solution.
However, wise people use their skill and grow over the events. If the vehicle is in perfect condition, the skill is effective. Conditioning the vehicle is sadhana or practice. And skill is the grace .

| Guruji Pranam...is it nessasary to chant mantras when we pray GOD? |
| Answer : SRI SRI : Your whole body is made up of atoms. Being with this truth kindles the energy in you and brings up the consciousness. When you sing bhajans, the Sound Energy Vibration Gets Absorbed Into Every Particle Of Your Body. Just like a microphone absorbs sound and converts it into electricity, the body absorbs the vibrations and converts it into consciousness. When you sit in bhajans your entire body gets soaked in energy and transformation happens. If your are sitting and listening to gossip or violent music, then that gets absorbed by your body and does not give a nice feeling. When you hear the Knowledge, or chant with all your heart, that elevates your consciousness.

| Question by: rijish |
| Respected gurujiAre you believing "Thrimurthi Sangalpa". If you are beleiving who is the most power full god. |
| Answer : SRI SRI : There are three forces: Brahma shakti, Vishnu shakti, and Shiva shakti. You may have one of these predominant. Brahma shakti is the force to create something new. Vishnu shakti is maintenance and Shiva shakti is bringing in transformation, filling in life, or destroying. Some of you have Brahma shakti. You may create well, but you may not be able to maintain. For example, you may make friends very fast, but it does not last long. There are others who cannot create but are good at maintaining. For example, people have long lasting friendships but cannot make any new friends. In such cases, Vishnu shakti is dominant. And then there are others who have more of Shiva shakti. They bring in new life or transformation or they can destroy the whole set up.
In Guru shakti, all three shaktis have blossomed fully. So each of you first identify which shakti you have more of and aspire for Guru shakti. Guru makes a group but a group cannot make a Guru

| Respected Guruji, I am a strong beliver in god irrespect of any religion. I started reading bhagavat gita around 2years ago.In one of the verses krishna says "I am the source of light from the sun and the moon in this universe". This stanza always confuses me because moon doesnt have any light source, the moonlight is only the reflection from the sun. Could you please elaborate to me what god had in mind when he said these words.With all due respect to bhagavad gita, this question doesnt have any intention of going against gods principles. I am a research student and have the habit of thinking too much in detail.Thank YouLibish |

| Question by: Adarsh |
| Dear Gurudev,I am Adarsh from IACS Kolkata.I want to know what you meant by enlightment????. Then one more question - If I am not enlighted in this birth what will happen. I have to born again or do you believe in REBIRTH. |
| Answer : SRI SRI : Seekers on the spiritual path are curious to know about Enlightenment. What is Enlightenment? I say, ''Enlightenment is like a joke!'' It is like a fish in the ocean searching for the ocean. Once upon a time, there was a congregation of fish, who got together to discuss who among them had seen the ocean. None of them could say they had actually seen the ocean. Then one fish said, ''I think my great grandfather had seen the ocean!'' A second fish said, ''Yes, yes, I have also heard about this.'' A third fish said, ''Yes, certainly, his great grandfather had seen the ocean.'' So they built a huge temple and made a statue of the great grandfather of that particular fish! They said, ''He had seen the ocean. He had been connected with the ocean.''
Enlightenment is the very core of our being; going to the core of our self and living our life from there. We all came into this world gifted with innocence, but gradually, as we became more intelligent, we lost our innocence. We were born with silence and as we grew up, we lost the silence and were filled with words. We lived in our hearts and as time passed, we moved into our heads. Now, the reversal of this journey is enlightenment. It is the journey from the head back to the heart, from words back to silence; getting back to our innocence in spite of our intelligence. Although very simple, this is a great achievement.

But we cry for what we have and we're upset about what we don't have, isn't it? Is it worth living life like that? We ourselves get depressed and then depress everybody around us! We need to shake ourselves up! Wake up! And when we wake up from this slumber, then we have peace in our hearts and we can radiate that peace and love around us |

| Question by: Arun |
| Dear GurugiDue to religious believes (Hindu) after visiting a death place or died person we have a custom to bath along with washing of cloths. Is it any thing related to religion or it as only as a custom to reduce the chances of spreading diseaces. The problem is by practimng it in family and by us now it become a part of life and this lead to inconsistency in attitude which leads into tension, to avoid this now i am avoiding situation like visit of death place , if it is not urgent. Expecting your valuable reply Arun |
| Answer : SRI SRI : All these age old practises have to be understood correctly. When you are miserable, what has happened is that you have gone away from the Self. This is called Ashaucha. It means you have become unclean. In India when someone dies, the close relatives are said to be Ashaucha for 10 days because they are very sad. They are impure because they have moved away from the self. After 10 days of just being with that experience and reading the Gita, being with the Knowledge and pulling themselves back into the Self, then it is called Shaucha. They have purged out the impurities that have come during events. This keeps happening again and again in dealings in life. You become Ashaucha and you have to get back to Shaucha. Go deeper in to yourself, then real Shaucha happens.

| Answer : SRI SRI : Millions of years have passed before you came to this planet and billions are yet to follow. What is your life? 70, 80 years? It is nothing....Do you desire for what you have? You desire that you do not have. And when you get it, then you desire for something else that you don't have. Isn't it? Desire simply chases you. It's like someone chasing their shadow: you can never hold to it, you can never get to it.Desire means the present is not sufficient enough, it is not okay the way it is now, this moment. Desire means projection to the next moment. Desire simply means being unaware of the Infinity. Desire simply means you don't know yourself.Wake up, wake up ! This human life is very precious... |

| Question by: S. |
| Dear GurujiHow can we perform well in our job and Daily activities. Abdul Nazar AOL Member, Doha-Qatar |
| Answer : SRI SRI :
When our mind is agitated or restless and we are too active, we are not tapping that source that is deep within us, which is intuitive which gives us the correct thoughts, which gives us the confidence. So few minutes of silence, few minutes of reflecting about the truths about our lives would be extremely beneficial for every one of us.
Now how to do it, what are the ways and means to achieve that inner peace? This question haunts everybody. We need to find an answer about the basic questions that come into our hearts and our minds. I would say observing that everything is changing in our world, in our lives, in our society would give us a clue that there is something that is not changing. The reference point by which we observe things are changing is the something that is not changing and that non-changing aspect of our consciousness gives us enormous strength, courage and creativity. And few minutes of experiencing that non-changing aspect deep within us all makes our body energized, mind focused, our intellect free from inhibitions, memory free from traumas and a joyful flavor to our expositions comes around. We are able to be in touch with the joy that one is seeking.
And when you are in touch with the joy in yourself, perfect balance happens in your life.

| Dear Guru,How can I change my hate in my mind with my enemy?From,Vinod A. |
| Answer : SRI SRI : Whenever we are joyful or in love, there is an expansion and it is worth knowing this expansion then nothing can disturb us or take our smile away from us. Otherwise you see, some small things can throw us off the balance, a few words from somebody, someone's lips moving in a particular direction, with their tongues rolling in a particular direction. And that sound comes and hits our ears and our head starts boiling. Its not worth letting our mind, our life undergo such suffering, such misery. |

| Question by: Nayib |
| i think ur programme is devolped by ancient indian rishis.You had simply marketted to upper class people..if not why are you paying for "Jeevana Kala"..I attended ur function at Kollam,Kerala recently..i found there a pure way of marketing your courses.. |
| Answer : SRI SRI : I welcome creative criticism. But, people who criticise that ''Art of Living'' is commercial have not really gone and seen the Art of Living. Once you do that, the idea of commercialisation will go away. Art of Living has adopted more than 25,000 villages in India . It is charitable. It appears otherwise, because of the fees we charge, that is because, the mind has become commercial and a commercial mind can be only captured that way. We are thus compelled, to introduce the commercial aspects because the mind has steeped in commercial activities. Nav chetana shibirams all over the country are free. Remember, whatever appears is not what it is ! |

| Iam working in an office.The atmosphere is always irritating me lot. Because of my husband's wish I joined here.I don't want more salary, still I am not at al happy.How can I get satisfaction? |
| Answer : SRI SRI : There is nothing called ''Job Satisfaction'' ! It is the biggest illusion that you will get satisfaction in your job. I tell you there is no such a thing as job satisfaction. This word should be eliminated from the dictionary ! Satisfaction can only come to you by going deep within you, by praying, by singing and celebrating. Job you do to maintain your family, your circumstances for financial security and all these reasons. For this you do your job. Art, music, celebration, praying, all this you do for your satisfaction. |

| Question by: Sreejith |
| HI Guruji,Why peoples prefering suicide... that also old people.... You know why I am asking this... Kindly clarify, I am totally confused. |
| Answer : SRI SRI : It is because of ignorance. So many people commit suicide thinking they would get rid of the anguish, agitation, agony, but they will be born with the same thing next time. Suicide is not the answer. Suicide does not take you away from your misery or problems. Suicide is not death. Deep desire to live makes you commit suicide. When life is just a game and you have lived life, then you embrace death naturally when it comes. It is the fear of death that dampens life, and fear because we don't know what it is. |

| Answer : SRI SRI : Do not judge. Just look at yourself -- how many flaws you have. And Nature, the Divine, has accepted you with all your flaws... It doesn't judge you at all. Your own judgement brings the barrier, separates you, makes you behave so funny. When you are judging, you are judging your own self, but you are super-imposing it on this, or this, or this, or this, or this....Go inside -- go into the kingdom of heaven. And how can you go? You can go only when you become innocent. And how can you be innocent? Stop judging. |

| Answer : SRI SRI : Dont think that you have to leave everything to become spiritual. See Divinity in this whole creation. God has not left this universe. And at the same time, don't take that as an excuse to be anywhere and everywhere. Be in the middle path. It's a fine balance. |

A higher state of consciousness will not drop on your head from heaven one fine morning. The sapling of consciousness is within you - it needs to be nurtured with simple techniques of meditation. Some palm trees yield in three years, some in ten years. And those that are not nurtured never yield, they simply exist !

| Question by: giri |
| all my activities to come forwardin life are failed.why?my activities are always truthful and not blame others. |
| Answer :
SRI SRI : The more you commit, the more your capacity and capability to do any work. Commitment is always about something a little more. You don't say, ''I am committed to drink a glass of water or walk one kilometer'', which you do anyway. If you think, ''I can only do this much work'', then your commitment has to be more than what you think you can do. Commitment is about stretching your capabilities. |

| Question by: Bijoy |
| Dear Guruji, I have done various courses conducted by AOL (basic, advanced and dsn). Had learnd a lot from it. But when time passes I'm getting away from the path, then comes back and it goes like that. What should be done to stick on the path and be a person with out distracted by worldly affairs. |
| Answer : SRI SRI :
Just like you run out of fuel in the car and you have to refill it again and again, in the same way your dedication and commitment runs out in the course of time and it needs constant renewal! You have to dedicate and rededicate again and again. Often people take their dedication for granted and then the mind starts demanding or complaining. When dedication is not complete, it leads to grumbling and complaints. Total dedication brings enormous enthusiasm, zeal, trust, and challenge, and does not leave any room for ego.

| Question by: K.Kumar |
| Dear Guruji,I had attended basic, advanced course (at Bangalore ashram) and also sri sri Yoga. Recently I had to face some hardships in life, and was quite stressed up. Even after practicing the relaxing techniques, pranayama etc, my health became bad and I had an M.I. I was hopitalized, and still suffering from its effects. Could you please tell me how to gain good physical mental health ? |
| Answer : SRI SRI : All your plans are a dream, all your memory of the past is a dream -- because both of them do not exist right this moment as a reality. You are in a constant state of dreaming; that's why you are miserable -- daydreaming and night dreaming. An awakened person lives in the moment so totally, and yet appreciates beauty in its totality. |

| Answer : SRI SRI :
Be thankful if you have been bestowed with the qualities that you have, because it is not your own making. In the same way it depends on the part which you have been given to play. Suppose you are given a role, it's a drama. Say, suppose in a drama, if you are given a part of a villian, and you play it perfectly that role. And a villian always knows that when I am playing the role of a villian, it's just a role I am playing. I'm very sincere to my role. There is a saying in Sanskrit. "Du |
