1995年3月5日以及2001年9月4日的講座摘錄
你還記得有一天你有想來上課，但就沒來嗎？ 它發生了，而且發生很多次。 它總是在發生。 當你想早上起床，與你的神和上主在一起時，你就是做不到， 總是這樣在發生。 當你想愛某人並為某人服務時，你真的有想要做，但你就是做不到。
我們想擺脫這個「不能、不行」。 我們希望我們的意志能如此清靜、如此清晰、如此積極，以至於「不能、不行」不會觸及我們的海岸。 我們有一種非常大的疾病：「不能、不行」。歸根結底，這個「不能、不行」就像癌症，吞噬了我們的決心和本質 — 因為我們「不能、不行」。
我們在這個星球上的所有問題都來自這個「不能、不行」。 這「不能、不行」讓我們脫離了正法、脫離了我們的責任。
當我來到美國時，我開始教昆達里尼瑜伽。 我知道，至少這是一門賦予人卓越的科學，它將創造出優秀的人格；它將「不能、不行」遠離我們。 它將為我們提供一條通往最大幸福的途經必要犧牲之路。 如果我們不能犧牲小我、不能犧牲我們的依戀執著、不能犧牲我們的憤怒、不能犧牲我們的感官慾望、不能犧牲我們的貪婪。 那麼，我們又可以犧牲什麼呢？ 這些都是迫使我們將「不能、不行」繼續安置在我們身上的自我機能。
我們竭盡全力生存。 但我們需要在終極現實、相應的覺知、絕對的優雅與現實生存一起進行。 我們不能妥協。 有些人可以做到、有些人不能。 這無關於個體性不同。 只在於你可以像青蛙一樣生活在井裡，或者可以生活在浩瀚大洋中。 這取決於你。
如果你不改變它們，事情就不會改變。 改變你內在事物的是那個屬於神聖的你，它就在正在你身上。 正是你身上的神性才能讓你做出犧牲。 正是你身上的真實會讓你理解。 不要把它當作個體化問題，這不是個人的差異。 這是Purkha [3]和 Prakirti [4] 的一般規則；它永遠不會改變，你必須隨之改變。
承諾賦予你性格。 這賦予你尊嚴、神性、優雅、犧牲的力量，然後才是幸福。 因為唯一死亡的是肉體，但也有另外九個能量身體。 總共是十個能量體。 這就是真實的現實。 你必須學會愛所有十個能量身體，而不僅僅是只是肉體。因為即使你不摧毀身體，它最終也會摧毀自己。 這是Prakirti 定律。
Jo upjo sobinsay，「一個出生的人必奔向死亡。」 但其它能量身體可以幫助你變得年輕、新鮮和美麗。 這個肉身是用於服務的。 認識到還有九個能量體帶著這副軀幹，這就是所謂的正法之路。 這取決於你是否遵循跟隨正法，或是直接否認它。
生命是要好好地活，生命是被給予的禮物。 Atma 靈魂，選取了我們的身體。 生命這條路被命途所覆蓋，並受到命運的挑戰。 事情就是這樣進行的。 沒有其它的方式。
你有你的生活。 你可以好好活、你可以擁有你需要的一切，這都是命中註定的。 但如果你想要更多，只有敞開心扉，你才能得到它。 開啟你的門， 一個人必須向他人敞開心扉。 沒有必要試圖主宰或支配他人。 你一個美麗的微笑，一個「 哈囉，你好嗎？」 或「Sat Nam」— 它可以做很多好事，即使對一個不認識你的人也是如此。
但要做到這一點，你必須投資。 你必須轉向另一個人的心靈，表明你是上主的愛人，你在這裡為每個人而生活。 這是屬於無限的。
無論普拉那生命能量賦予你什麼生命，都是無限的。 一旦你的生活開始有了節律，「不能、不行」就會消失。

Excerpts from lectures on 3/5/95 and 9/4/01
Do you remember a day when you wanted to come into class and you couldn’t? It happens. It happens many times. It happens. When you want to get up in the morning and be with your God and Lord, you couldn’t. It happens. When you wanted to love somebody and serve somebody, you really wanted it but you couldn’t.
We want to get rid of this ‘couldn’t.’ We want to make our will so clean, so clear, so positive, that the ‘couldn’t’ doesn’t touch our shores. We have a very strong disease: ‘couldn’t.’ And ultimately this ‘couldn’t’ is like a cancer and eats our determination, our essence—because we ‘couldn’t.’
All our problems on this planet come from this ‘couldn’t.’ This ‘couldn’t’ gives us a slip from our Dharma, from our duty.
When I came to the United States I started teaching Kundalini Yoga. I knew that at least it’s a science which gives a person excellence. It will create excellent characters; it will take ‘couldn’t’ away from us. It will give us a pathway of an essential sacrifice which will give us maximum happiness.
We cannot sacrifice our ego. We cannot sacrifice our attachment. We cannot sacrifice our anger. We cannot sacrifice our lust. We cannot sacrifice our greed. Then, what can we sacrifice? These are the faculties that force our “couldn’t” on us.
We make every effort to survive. But we need to survive with the ultimate reality, with applied consciousness, and with absolute reality of grace. We can’t compromise. Some people can do it. Some can’t. There’s nothing personal in it. You can live like a frog in the well or you can live in the ocean. It’s up to you.
Things will not change if you don’t change them. What will change things in you is the divine you, which is in you. It is the divinity in you which will allow you to sacrifice. It is the reality in you which will make you realize. Don’t take it personally. It is not personal. It is a general rule of Purkha[3] and Prakirti[4[; it shall never change, you have to change with it.
Commitment gives you character. That gives you dignity, divinity, grace, the power to sacrifice and then happiness. Because the only thing which dies is the physical body, but there are nine other bodies too. The total account is ten bodies. That’s the reality. You have to learn to love all the ten bodies, not the physical body only. Even if you don’t destroy the physical body, it is going to destroy itself. It’s the law of prakirti.
Jo upjo sobinsay. “One who is born has to die.” But the other bodies can help you to be young, fresh and beautiful. This body is given to serve. Recognize there are nine others with it and that is called the path of Dharma. And it is up to you to follow it or deny it.
Life is to be lived. Life is a given gift. Atma, the soul, takes the body. The distance of life is covered by destiny and challenged by fate. That’s how it goes. There are no two ways about it.
You have your life. You can live. You can have all that you need, and that is destined. But if you want more, you can only get it if you open yourself. Open your doors. A person has to open his heart to others. It is not necessary to try to predominate or dominate other people. Your one beautiful smile, and one, “Hello, how are you?” or “Sat Nam,”—there is so much good it can do, even to a person who doesn’t know you.
But to do that, you have to put in your investment. You have to move towards the psyche of another person. You have to show that you are the beloved of the Lord and you are here to live a life for everybody. And this is unlimited. Whatever life is given to you by the pranic energy is unlimited.
Once your life gets subject to rhythm, ‘couldn’t’ will go away.
