" .. Our mental structure will change naturally; the mind will not change. If you think 'I will remain here only; I am happy as I am; I do not want to change', you can remain as you are. Nothing wrong in that! You will face life, death, again life, death and sorrow. One person who died last night came to me some time back crying loudly. His son-in-law beat his daughter and sent her away from the house along with her children. He was weeping for his daughter's state. The irony is that he is a very rich man! It is very difficult to face problems in this world; you will break down and weep. But when you surrender to Mother, your state will be different. You will not weep like that. You will feel that the bad phase is over. I do not weep for anything in this world. I never cry that I gave up my job. I do not have a job, yet Mother gives me everything. Mother will give us everything. You must believe in Her. "

" This room is given by Mother only. On one hot summer afternoon, I was writing the 3rd volume of Brindavaneswari Sri Radha. The power went off and I was sweating profusely. There was no body near me even to use the hand fan. At that time, only Mother saw my state. Mother who is always with me; though She is invisible. She gave the impulse to a stranger, a rich gentleman. He came here suddenly and immediately converted the room to AC. So Mother gives without your asking. 'You are not alone; you are not in a helpless state. I am always with you. I can provide you everything.' Such a strange incident. "

" I had many such wonderful experiences. On one day, I had no money with me but I had to make some essential purchases. I was worried. I do not ask anybody for money. How to face this situation? I went upstairs at dusk time and the Goddess spoke to me using Amma as medium. 'Why are you upset for money? Goddesses like Lakshmi are near my feet!' She stretched out Her hand and something sprinkled from Her palm. I could not see properly in the darkness. The next morning, we saw bits of gold pieces sprinkled on the floor. Then I realized that I must never worry for money and there is no need to ask anybody for money. I removed all the gold pieces, went to a jewellery shop and got a gold coin made from the melted gold. I also got images of Radha and Krishna embossed on the coin and kept it in a safe place as a memory. When Mother stretches Her hand and creates gold flakes, why should I worry about money? When such a Mother is with me, why should I weep? Why should I beg for money? (Nanna was crying as he spoke). "

" We must not beg for money even to celebrate Mother's function. Can't God get his money? Why should you beg? A real God will arrange money by himself. My Mother is real. That is why She told me 'Don't stretch out your hand before anybody and ask for anything. You will move away from me if you do so.' I took an oath not to ask anybody for money. I decided not to approach anybody to celebrate Mother's festival. If anybody gives money on their own, I will save it in the bank and use the interest on this amount to celebrate Her festivals. "

" Mother's functions must be celebrated as long as the Sun and the Moon exist. I must not ask anybody for money; yet the functions must be celebrated grandly. What a wish! Amazingly that is exactly what is happening because the real God is with me. I know that I will get any amount of money if I ask, but I won't. Yet. . money is flowing in; I do not know how! "

" One day, a wealthy man came near me and said 'I came to know that you wish to deposit some money in the bank and use the interest to celebrate Mother's functions. Here is the principle amount, please deposit it in your account' He gave me Rs.50,000. I do not even know him properly! These are strange yet true incidents. "

" When Rama's devotee Ramdas could not repay the Nizam's money, he was thrown into the prison. Rama saw his plight and knew that he would drink poison and end his life in prison. How could God accept such a state for his devotee? He and Lakshmana appeared in the Nizam's dream saying 'I am Ramoji. He is my brother Lakshmoji. Our beloved Ramdas is imprisoned by you. We came to repay his debts' . They gave the Nizam some gold coins. He woke up and realized the coins were real. A few coins are present in the museum till date. Just like Mother gave me gold, Rama gave gold coins to protect his devotee. "

" There is no need to ask for anything. She will look after you. Mother arranged Rs.40 lakhs as a permanent deposit amount within just 20 days from all Her devotees. Now I need not ask for money to celebrate Her functions. This fund will sustain the functions as long as the sun and the moon exist. That is how Mother made my wish come true. "

" Mother promised to take me back to the higher world. She said that I will not come back to this world again; I came here by chance. She gave a message clearly that 'he came here for a purpose. He will not come back again, once he leaves this world. He will show the right path to everybody who seeks his shelter'. I will not come back again. This is my last life. This is my last birth as a human being; my final worldly life. I will remain with my Mother. I will move in the upper worlds. This is the truth declared by Her. "

" I realized that Mother arranged money to celebrate Her functions. What can be stranger than this? Mother is all-pervading; She is present in all the worlds. I witnessed Her all pervading nature a few times. The all-pervading Mother is with you and with me also. She is watching you all the time. Your words and actions are being seen by Her. The Vedas declared that Lord Krishna bows before Her and worships Her. The Rig Veda says 'Krishnena Aradhyathethi Radha' . She is Radha because of Krishna's aradhana (worship). Krishna is the original God; the greatest divine incarnation. Sage Vyasa wrote that there is no other divine incarnation equal to Krishna. 'Etah asyansa kalah punsah Krishnasthu Bhagawan Swayam'. Krishna is God Himself! Such a Krishna worships Radha. "

" Mother told me 'Why do you need Krishna's idol? I am here. He is with Me.' That is why, in our ashram, we have Mother's portrait, not Krishna's. Krishna is not included in my deity of worship. This is not out of hatred but only because there is no need. When both of them are one, then where is the need to worship both? That one is Radha! The Lord said 'When Radha is there, when you have attained Radha's grace, you do not need my blessings. There is no need to pray to me separately.' When Lord Shiva asked Krishna that path to reach him, he replied 'When you seek shelter unto both of us with gopi bhava, you can attain me.' 'Even if you pray to me, but if you do not surrender to my loving deity Radha, you cannot attain me. Even if you do not surrender to me but surrender to Radha only, you can attain me.' Krishna very clearly stated how he can be attained. He implied 'don't think that I will come to you because you sought my shelter. She must agree! Unless you seek Her shelter also, you cannot attain me, no matter how much you worship me. You must definitely attain Her grace and blessings. This is the second condition. If a devotee does not have faith in me but has faith in Radhaji, that is enough. Even if you do not have faith in me, even if you do not seek my shelter but surrendered to Radhaji, you can attain me! I am in Radha's hands.' "

" Padmapurana is an authoritative spiritual scripture, which was followed by Chaitanya also. He quoted the verses from Padmapurana to argue with his spiritual opponent. Such is its significance. The above words of Krishna are mentioned in Padmapurana. That is why I have only Radha's portrait. Where is the need for so many deities? Many people in Brindavan discussed with me about why I came to reside in Brindavan, why I constructed an ashram but did not keep Krishna's idol in the temple. Infact one person came and questioned me directly. He was furious with me. I told him to calm down and pray silently for 5 minutes. He had a vision that Krishna came out from Radha's idol. He prostrated before Her and regretted for his behavior. Mother taught him a lesson. We do not fear that Krishna is not here. Mother is present here and Krishna is present in Her. Padmapurana is the evidence for this fact. 'You will attain me even if you do not seek my shelter but seek the shelter of Radha alone.' "

" One must believe the religious scriptures. Krishna said in Bhagawad Gita 'Yat sastra vidhi mutstrajya varthathe kama kartha na sa siddhimavapnothi na sukham na parangathi' . A fool who thinks that he will not follow the science and behaves as he likes will not find happiness either in this world or any world while he is alive or even after he dies'. The Gita teach you not to ignore the science and religious scriptures. "

" Padmapurana is a great scripture where in Mother revealed Herself. That is why I say 'none other than Mother'. We do not want Krishna when Mother is with us. When you have more deities, your mind wavers in dhyana. We need one pointed concentration in our mind. We want only one object; only one deity! Badarinarayana told his consort Goddess Lakshmi to leave from his heart because he must have only one deity in his dhyana. She left. So remember that you must have only one deity in your dhyana. I accepted Radha as my deity. If you do dhyana on Her constantly, some of you will have Her darshan after some time. She will certainly show Her leelas! "

" There is no other yogic path greater than this one in kaliyuga. It is a unique path. Do not stop this dhyana after you reach home. I took a vow that 'I will continuously contemplate on Mother day and night, every single day as long as I am in consciousness, as long as I am alive. So any moment you ask me, Mother is within me. I remain in Her contemplation. I will not give up this dhyana even after 50 years from now. When it is possible for me to remain only in Her thought day and night, why can't you do so? You also can do it. Can't you do dhyana for at least 6 hrs to 8 hrs a day? I request you to do dhyana. "

" I will tell you about dhyana, why we must do dhyana and where will dhyana take us. The rishis did penance since ages; it is continuing even today. The words of sages will never go waste. The words of Vedas are true; they never fail; they have no defeat. The Vedas which existed several thousands of years ago exist even today. They have not changed. However if the Government of India or America passes an act; they will be modified within two years. The human mind is immature and impure. It keeps changing now and then. The mind is not stable. The Gita said 'Shraddhavan labhathe gyanam' People read the Gita and Vedas; they do sadhana but the first and foremost requirement is concentration. When I decided that 'I must go to Brindavan; stay there all the time and carefully look after everything', I faced a lot of problems. Yet I did not give up. I continued to stay here with determination; now it is almost 18-20 years. You must have concentration. "

" The sages taught us the path of dhyana. Do not contemplate on prakriti. It is maya! It will take you away from God. Radhaji pulls the jeeva who is far away from God towards Her. That is science! We are living in maya which is pulling us down and taking us away from God. So we must hold on to a power which opposes maya. That power is Radha! "

" The Vedas mention that Brahma questioned why Radhaji was given importance when so many other Gods were present? Why should we worship only Radha? Krishna himself worshipped Radha. 'Krishnena aradhyathethi Radha' . Why did Radha come to this world? The Vedas hinted that each one must analyze from where the power has come into innumerable Gods and Goddesses. "

" Hanuman is very great. From where did he get that power? The fire god is great; but from where did he get that power? In this way, if we analyze about each God, it is stated that Radha is the source of the power present in millions of Gods. That is why, we worship Radha. The Vedas stated an example. Once, the demons and Gods had a big fight. Finally the Gods won and the demons were defeated. The God of fire boasted 'we won this war only because of me and not due to any other God. I am solely responsible for our victory.' Just then a huge brightness appeared and said 'I am giving you some dry grass. Try to burn it and give me the ashes'. The fire God tried with all his might but failed. He used the fruit of all his penance, yet could not succeed. 'You can take the help of all the Gods. See if all of you can put your efforts together and burn the dried twig'. All of them tried but of no use. "

" Then She stopped the fire! Only when you switch on the lights, they glow. Only when She puts Her power in switch on mode, we move and speak. If She switches off for one second, a calamity will occur. Nobody can do anything, not even Lord Brahma! That is the secret. The Vedas contain many such secrets. Then the Gods realized that the power in the fire God is not his; the power of wind God is not his! He can't do anything on his own. Mother has to initiate their power! Radha is such a central point. We act only when She initiates. She can give and also take. That is the secret of this world. "

" That is why Prakriti keeps changing frequently. It is unstable. The mind is also unstable. We are living in such a constantly changing prakriti. Our body is linked with prakriti which is formed by the three base modes. Brahma and Shiva also had a similar body. Our body also has the three base modes and a fickle mind. Do not believe the body. Never do dhyana on the body. If you do dhyana on the body, you will fall. "

" The Bhagawata narrates the story of a king who gave up his kingdom, did penance and became a Maharishi. He had a small ashram and did penance there. One day he saw a newly born deer, brought it to the ashram and looked after it. Gradually he gave up his penance and became attached to the deer. During his last moments, he thought only about deer and gave up his life. The deer belongs to prakriti. He died with thoughts about prakriti. The next moment he attained the body of a deer which belongs to prakriti. He was reborn as a deer. We also thought about this body which is made up of prakriti (in our previous birth). That is why we got this body now. "

" We should not think about this prakriti related body. Bhava is above prakriti. We must think about that bhava. Bhava is God. Bhava is God's world. But how it is it possible not to think about this world? Silence! 'Mounam Tapas' . The Vedas say that silence is penance. One who does penance in silence is known as Muneeswara. Atri was a great sage. The Trinity Gods - Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva came down in the form of small children, as a fruit of his penance. They listened to his wife's words and even slept with them! The penance in silence could even bring down the Trinity Gods! "

" Silence is great penance. Make sure that your penance has no link with prakriti because it is made up of 5 senses - sound, touch, sight, taste and smell. Your Guru has given you mantra; very good. But the mantra has prakriti as it contains sound and sight (form). If you do such a penance, you will be contemplating on prakriti only. At the time of death, you will be chanting this mantra and again be born into prakriti dharma. That is your downfall. You must do mantra without sound, touch, name and form. Do penance in this way. Oh, is it very difficult? No, it is not. That is the highest tapasya. We also must do penance like Atri muni who brought the Trinity to this world by his silence penance, without any trace of prakriti. This is the path which the rishis found out. "

" That is our penance - without any prakriti words. We only say 'Mother'. Mother is not prakriti; She is power. Radha Devi is the manifestation of Para power and is the sovereign of all Gods. Krishna himself worships Her. That is why She is known as Radha. Mother told us how to do tapasya. You must contemplate that 'Mother is with me. She has no name or form.' Mounam tapas; Santham tapas; Satyam tapas. All the three- silence, peace and truth are present in our penance. So your deity should be Mother. Mother means Radha and nobody else. Even 'Om' did not originate before Radha. She is present since that long! If you think of Her, it is enough. You don't need anything else. She will take you till the end without any effort on your part. Your job is to sit and think only about Mother. "
