[@mrudulalaud4211]

Jai Guru Dev. Greetings from the Philippines. I am an initiated disciple of Maharishi Mahesh Yoga whom I met in India during the International Vedic Science Conference in New Delhi, India the 1980s before he passed away at the age of 92.

[@KVRao-j6c]

Not only knowing but also sharing very important.

[@seanmurphy7868]

Beautifully transcribed my dude. Patanjali has become very close to me and grows closer still. I may even become him one day soon.

[@vinodkumargandhi1878]

Jay Gurudev Swami Jee..

[@priyankaarora308]

So Blissful Swami ji.Jai Gurudev

[@neelamrai3956]

I feel the names of the gurus in the stories are the the stages of evolution of a single person. To be able to be in yoga one has to transcend the stages gradually. I don't know how gurudev is making me understand these stories from different angle. I feel grateful for these stories they are making me understand the deeper meaning. I am praying to gurudev that I could slowly overcome my dark period and master the speech, eating and my mind and share this wonderful, amazing knowledge whose worth can't be calculated. Love you Swami ji and all my acharyas who have taught me the appropriate Aacharan till now and in the times to come.. I am blessed. Devesh

[@sudhadharwadkar7415]

Jai Gurudev Swamiji We learn in this story how Guru is Compassionate to his Desciple

[@marialahitte4372]

The part that i love the most is that in a moment you spread a tear while telling us the story... And also your happy face it seems as if You are having new insights while teaching us. 💙 JGD

[@LilianAndLilian]

Dear Purnachaitanya, Greeting to you! What a beautiful story of Maha Rishi Patanjali, As all the Indian stories have very very deep meaning, this story also. At the heart of all teaching is the Trinity. Which three? Om Ah Hum. If Om is like the sky, then Ah is the sun and Hum is the moon; If Om is like a mirror, then Ah is the person looking in the mirror, and Hum is the image in the mirror; If Om is like the ocean, then Ah is the wind on the sea, and Hum is the waves blown by the wind; If Om is like a teacher, then Ah is the teacher’s sound, and Hum is the student who receives instruction. … These three are interdependent like reeds and cannot be separated from any one of them; as long as there is no one of them, it will return to zero. If a teacher does not have students, it is like the sun without the moon. There is only a luminous body without a receiving body. There is only what can be done but not what is done. Then the sun's own luminous characteristics cannot be brought into play. But if the sun cannot shine, then he will not be able to shine. Not called the sun. In essence, there is only one person in the entire universe, with no one to share it with, and the sun has no way to violate its own nature of shining, so it has to divide itself into two, with one being a teacher and the other being a student. The reason why the teacher cannot be seen is because the teacher is the center of the black hole. Once any light exceeds the event horizon and enters the black hole, it will be captured, because beyond that curtain, everything will return to one, nothing can be seen. All duality can exist only outside the veil. So when those students uncovered the screen, everything went up in flames. There is actually only one sun and one teacher in the entire universe, and because the teacher can appear anywhere, the possibility that it may exist everywhere makes those 1,000 students appear to exist, but they do not actually exist. Just like the electron cloud of hydrogen atoms, because of this probability that may exist everywhere, although it looks like there are countless electrons, densely packed around the center, there is actually only one electron; just like the sun emits light, it seems It seems like many photons make up the light, but in fact there is only one sun. The teacher teaches in a natural way and warns the students not to move around and to observe discipline, because the teacher (nature) itself operates in a perfect way, which is reflected in the specific way of forces. These 1,000 students represent human beings who think they have free will and think they have a self, and they act recklessly, which greatly disturbs the original perfect operation. All karma operates under strict laws of cause and effect, it seems like this, but if you know that karma is not real either, karma is just the way to hold the knowledge, then the teacher can become the student again to balance the karma, because this is the only way. When you understand that karma is empty, then you will always reach the most essential core. In fact, not only teachers are looking for students, the students are also looking for teachers, just like me now. Padmasambhava once said: "You must find a guru." I didn't really understand what he said until I was writing this letter. Students look for teachers in order to become the next teacher. Even if you have all the knowledge, if you don't use it and pass it on, then the knowledge will enter the belly of the goat.

[@rogerfederer5319]

i am 22 years old, i never have interaction with nice wise sages, and with these adultery news in ashrams - i started believe that all gurus are just fake. but you swamiji, brought back my faith, you're the first person i visulize as a form of guru to me, i don't have much to say, but i wish u remain on this path and enlighten many more fogotten people like me namo narayana

[@saraswathyshanmugam9416]

Thank you Swamiji. Since 2003 I am connected with Art of Living with our Guruji. I have heard lot of speeches of our Guruji. But this story is more attracted towards to know more deeper knowledge the way you are delivering is mesmerizing me hear more from you. Thank you swami and my Guruji.🙏🙏

[@srujanam4346]

Keep giving these stories

No Words! Only love and Gratitude! Jai Guru Dev Swamiji 🙏

[@yogaparamgati108]

Very nice sharing 🙏

[@joanryan997]

Lovely story. I felt that the punishment was too harsh for the student and for those that turned to ashes, and the forgiveness was not lenient either. All in all a good lesson to follow the rules and pay attention and share with others. Thank you.

[@katyaltarun]

Jai gurudev swami ji you looks like Jesus thanks for sharing the stories ❤❤❤😇😇😇

[@kwakharia]

I am so grateful and feel blessed to be able listen to these stories,. The tears of gratitude starts flowing listening to the compassion of the master and unconditional love. your narrative is so amazing it makes feel like I am somewhere there in the story and slowly getting out of the ignorance. 🙏🏻

[@nehamandrah1044]

I always wished to known such stories, This is the first one I have listened. Your naration is amazing.... Will note it down word to word for lil daughter (just a 10 months young now :)). One thing that amazed me is, may be the 999 devotees burned to ashes so that there can be just one version of yoga sutra. Afterall Narayana knows all what's going to happen. Your this inatiative will help us and future generations to understand the root of spirituality. jai guru dev!

[@sudhadharwadkar7415]

Jai Gurudev Swamiji Liked to listen the story of Guru Patanjali and his Disciple

[@rkvaol]

The Lord and Guru are one who takes manifestation to any form to uplift a disciple, wonderfully communicated through this story, thank you Sawmi ji

[@marianvanruitenbeek2529]

Dear swamiji, your storys are so beautiful, so touching the heart, so full of wisdom and love. I really like to listen to the storys... so thank you very much.

[@samisami-uu1vs]

Thank you 🙏 I can feel your high vibrations even on you tube video ! I felt so fortunate .

[@diegofdobravo]

Thanks dear Swami Ji. Very beautiful stories! Lot of love from CHILE.

[@mahalakshmisankar1849]

Thank you so much for the story of Patanjali, infact I suddenly wished to read the story of Patanjali and i found this in utube... Very well narrated.. Definitely I will pass on this knowledge.. i liked the aspect of Guru Tattva, Guru is not a person to be looked, but to feel the vibrations flowing. Guru shares the knowledge to all the seekers uniquely... Thank you so much.

[@shrividyamayya2199]

After coming to this Knowledge , those movements we go unaware can be .very danger to loose knowledge. or be aware of sleep .. or inform before going to rest. need to take permission to rest as well.. but grace is even if u are lost. divine will wake us back to restain the rest half. Gratitude for waking us. And the imp of sharing knowledge so nice. no stock to be maintained un used...

[@projwalkumardavid8649]

Jai Gurudev Swamiji Thank you for sharing a wonderful knowledge story. I somehow start imagining the story, as you start the narration. All the in story was new and I am highly grateful to you sharing knowledge through stories or historical facts.

[@kkyashodha6054]

Great 👍

[@sridevi1214]

My perception about life and of people completely changed the moment I watched this. For a moment my mind was frozen and I realised many things about myself. I really liked when you said when we gain knowledge, we have to be aware and awake all the time. Jaigurudev!!

[@vinitakhanka5362]

Jai Gurudev Swamiji. Thank you for sharing this beautiful story. 🙏. I have no words to describe how it made me feel.

[@shaliniparekh2159]

I did not know how imp it is to share knowledge. So grateful for these stories that make the knowledgeable so beautiful.

[@EdimarNamaste]

Thank you dear Swami! So profound!!! Jai Gurudev🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@luissanz1514]

Amazing to learn how a teacher/master comes down to the disciple's level to help the grow and get liberated...as Patanjali had to reincarnate and become a student again so that the young boy could be set free and pass the knowledge. JGD

[@AshaKumari-bi3ny]

i liked abt bramha rakshasa....that if we do not share the knowledge we become bramha rakshasa and that we should have faith in the master Jaigurudev

[@gayatrig5818]

Feeling blessed to hear it 🙏

[@NitinKumar-rf3hh]

The way you say the stories are like you were there witnessing the whole thing. I am paying my full attention when you say story. So beautiful.

So so profound and love the way you explain simple things

[@breatheyogastudio4763]

Thank you very much for giving such a great story of patanjali. I'm a student of yoga.so many things I learned .

[@sarojasharma3320]

This was so beautiful Swamiji🙏... My little interpretation of the goat eating some of the scriptures is that it was meant to be. So that some of the yoga sutras come in the form of intuitive knowledge at the spur of the moment. Goat as an animal represents intuition

[@krishnansethuraman4253]

Enjoyed it for the content and also the pleasant way it was conveyed

[@jyothiparthiban8021]

Beautiful story swamiji, where I learnt about how our faith should be unquestionably strong when it comes to our guru . I feel so thankful to be in the Grace of our Guruji and great ppl like u 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@abhijitnaik1695]

Wonderful way to speaking. You feel peace and Swamis face is a reflection of compassion 🙏🏻

[@sanjayn7306]

jai gurudev swamiji i attended a mediation session with gurudev and he said nobody should leave the session for any reason till over ...i had natures call but somehow managed to stay for session....pranams i am suffering from aniexty too for many years i do my kriya as 5-6 days a week please bless me that my faith in the path and sri sri gurudev remains strong and bless me that i be use for my family and aol activities.. as i am tired with the aniexty issues

Swami. I really like the way you explain the ancient stories in a simpler words. Thank u so much. Jai Gurudev.

[@NitinKumar-rf3hh]

Must have faith on the master... Master is always with us. It was beautiful when I heard that Guru became a disciple of the disciple to free him from karma and later when Adi ShanakaraCharya reached to Gudapada for master he directs him to Govinda Pada... We have to be aware of the knowledge when our buttons are pushed. Guru doesn't love everyone equally but Uniquely 💖

[@yogavenkatesh1067]

Jai Gurudev, Dear Swamijj ,Grateful and lots of love to you for sharing beautiful knowledge ,inspiring to be in knowledge , awareness, discipline in practice, Faith on Master , realising compassion of Master ,responsibility to share knowledge others with skills. Your divine voice leads to meditation.. May your stories will inspire more people realise and reach ultimate. With unconditional Gratitude and love. Jai Gurudev.

[@EdimarNamaste]

I feel so grateful to be able to listen to you, dear Swami, Jai Gurudev! It reminded me my times in the Bangalore Ashram, Thank you very much for getting us out of ignorance!

[@naveen814]

Thank you so much swamiji .. I had heard the patanjali yoga sutras by gurudev but wasn't knowing the true meaning of the veil, thousand headed serpent and thousand disciples, goat eating leaves, brahmrakshasha etc. I'm grateful to you swamiji for it. Beautifully elaborated.... jaigurudev .... 🙏

[@sarveshyadav4302]

I learn more from this story and i love it.... thanks for it❤️

[@ramakrishnathurumella1097]

Thank you for sharing the unknown part of the story. Jai Guru dev...👍😊💐

[@priyankaarora308]

We have to be aware & awake & should spread the precious knowledge

[@paromitaduttaroy7874]

Swamiji It is an excellent representation, it is proved again that the real knowledge is the property of the whole world, you are proving that, I am waiting for your next story about Samkarachrya' Avaita, Vedant', dhanaybad .

[@drusso141]

Dear petit mahatma, thank you for share this wisdom, the one of thousand left the room cause the nature call, not for wish, when he return to the area, everybody left burn he didn’t burn for the nature call but he violate the law, the discipline, Patanjali just convert him in ghost, if you broke the discipline you will kept ahead if your intention was real, if not you fail. The other 50% of the knowledge, you must learn by your effort and the grace. Yoga is discipline and the union with de Divine, you learn if you love and for love

[@dr.ravish5837]

Jai Gurudev 🙏 Its totally blissful to hear the stories from you. Thank you.

[@gvnrao9131]

Well explained🙏

[@bigdogyoga]

Hi Swamiji! There are stories in the Bible where Lord Jesus says that the servants of the house must be ever vigilant and aware when the master leaves and puts them in charge of his house: "Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning." I was always confused by this, and didn't know what it means. But hearing this story brought so much clarity! When you told about when the boy, young Govindapada, fell asleep by the river and the goat ate half of the leaves, I realized what the meaning (or maybe just one of the meanings) of what Lord Jesus was trying to say! He was saying that when the Master gives you Knowledge, you have to stay awake and cherish the Knowledge in your heart and make it a part of your expression and a part of your life. If you fall asleep, a goat might come and eat up all your Knowledge! Whatever is given to us by the Lord, we need to cherish it, and do the most possible good with. If we are bestowed with Knowledge, we should spread it to others who are sincere and truly want to know. If we are blessed with Love, we should expand our Love so that it encompasses all of the creation. If we are given Peace, we should carefully cultivate it so that we can spread it to everyone around us. Thank you for sharing this story Swamiji. I have been wondering what this Bible verse means for so long and because of you sharing, I now have a glimpse of what it means.

[@shubhampanwar7635]

very nice 👌👌👌👌👌😊

[@marijakulakova9632]

I"m so appreciate for the story and its interpetation. Since 2013 it has been a very intriguing riddle for me - why there was a curtain between Patanjali and his 1000 disciples. I had another version. Now I know!!!!

[@nisargjoshi9770]

Jai gurudev! It is a beautiful story and I would like to share one interpretation that I felt would be right. I was confused that if we don’t doubt the master intellectually, then how will we know that we are learning from the right person? Like in this world if we learn from a gangster or a corrupt person, we will become like him. But then I recalled the beginning of the story where Maharishi Patanjali went around to choose 1000 students to bestow his knowledge. So, we don’t need to worry coz IT IS THE MASTER THAT WILL CHOOSE YOU OR HAS CHOSEN YOU. We have also heard Guruji saying that lot of times. If you have a corrupt master it is either because of your past karma or because you have a role to play, there is a bigger purpose behind it. So, DO NOT DOUBT YOUR MASTER.

[@poonamchoudhary2181]
