Women, who were the bulwarks of Indian culture, the guardians of ancient spiritual wealth, are fast succumbing to flimsy attractions of foppish culture, as is evident from the modes of living and social behaviour of present times. This is the result of the artificial and empty system of education, as well as the subtle pulls of cheap literature and shoddy films. Today’s young women are the mothers and teachers of the generation of leaders to come. Everyone must respect their five Mothers: Deha mata, the mother who gave birth to you; Go mata, the cow that gives sustaining milk; Bhu mata, the land that grows the crops; Desha mata, your motherland that gives protection, care, love, rights and chances to serve and elevate yourself to great heights, and Veda mata, the spiritual treasure that reveals the purpose of life and leads you to Self-Realization. The Deha mata must reveal to the child the glories of all the others; so her responsibility is the greatest and most crucial.

Atma vidya (science of the Self) alone can fix the mind in Dharma. The students here will be given a glimpse of that Atma vidya; they will develop a keen desire to know about it. It is that knowledge and desire that will stand them in good stead when they encounter the problems of life. Prahlada told his father, “the father who leads his son to God is the only father who deserves the reverence due to that role.” Fathers who lead their sons into the vortex of sense pleasure, the volcanoes of physical passion, the boggy marsh of pride and pomp are unaware of their duties and responsibilities. So too, an educational system that keeps children away from God – the only refuge, the only kinsman, the only guide and guard – is really a system where the blind are engaged in blinding those who depend on them.

Love exists for love and nothing else; it is spontaneous and imparts delight. Love sees with the heart, not eyes. It listens not through ears but with tranquility of your heart. It speaks not with tongue but using compassion. Love has many synonyms – compassion and kindness also mean Love. Love can emanate only from the heart and not any other source. Love is immortal, nectarous, blissful and infinite. A heart filled with love is boundless. Just as rivers with different names merge in the ocean and become one with it, love in many forms enters the ocean of your heart and merges with it. Your thoughts, words and looks should be filled with love. This is divine love. One saturated with divine love can never be subject to suffering. People today are affected by praise or blame. But those filled with divine love transcend praise or censure. They are unaffected by criticism or flattery, and treat joy and sorrow, profit and loss, victory and defeat, alike.

You insure life because you are not quite sure of it, isn’t it? To assure yourselves of a comfortable life, you are persuaded to insure and pay premia. But God alone can guard you against the terror of death. You can derive happiness by controlling and conquering the mind and the senses. Iron and steel are produced in blast furnaces, where ore is melted and other components are added. The molten iron is carried in pails by cranes and poured by ladles. Though the ladle handles heat, it is immune to it. The crane holds other materials, but does not hold itself! The mind is like that. It holds, it manipulates, it handles all other things but it cannot carry itself or manipulate and transmute itself! The mind cannot hold the holder, that is to say, the Inner Motivator, God. So in order to save yourselves from the waywardness of the mind and its minions, you have to hold on to the ‘Holder’.

Divinity is in everyone and everywhere. You may not see Him with your physical eye, but you can visualise Him with your inner vision. Air exists, you cannot deny this even though you cannot see it or catch it. When it is hot, you can experience coolness either by using a hand fan or an electric fan. Air has not come from the fan. But whoever uses the fan receives and feels the air. Similarly God exists like air. The intellect is the fan. If you turn it toward Atma, you get Atmananda(Atmic bliss). On the other hand, you turn it towards the body, and you get temporary bodily pleasure. For crossing the ocean of life, you cannot depend on the body which is perishable and transient. It is indeed full of dirt and filth, flesh and bones. Hence you must surrender to the Divine within. Once you have God to help you, there is nothing that you cannot achieve.

Ancient sages who experienced the fragrance of the Divine searched for the form. They sought Him in forests and bushes. They had renounced everything and made a lot of sacrifices, still they could not find the source. Some even gave up midway, being satisfied with the fragrance that they had experienced. But others, with relentless determination, were able to find the flower eventually. There were yet others who could not experience the fragrance itself due to ‘severe cold’, and were termed atheists. Even though they had the nose they could not experience the fragrance of divine Bliss; they indeed are the unfortunate ones. But those who were able to experience this bliss exclaimed in ecstasy, “Vedahametham Purusham Mahantam (We have realised the Supreme Personality of the Godhead).” How is one to realise this? In every human being, the bliss or Ananda emanates from the heart, just as fragrance from a flower. The heart truly is complete and full.

A single household now has ten factions and parties. Those who cannot reform their own homes have started reforming the country and are advising others about cooperation and harmonious living. Knowledge of the Atmaas the very basis of all beings is now forgotten, and that is the cause for all the unrest, confusion, and moral crisis today! Decline in the discipline of constant thought of the Lord (namasmarana) is the root-cause of the decline of this country. It is to awaken the sleeping and communicate this message to them that God descends. If anyone calls you weak, do not believe it. You have intelligence, discipline, spiritual capacity, consciousness of others’ excellences, awareness of your faults, and eagerness to improve yourself — then how can you be called weak? Remember, a prayerful life will not yield to the fury of passion; it will be a source of strength and cooperation. I bless that all of you may have lives full of joy and peace.
