00:00When people come in front of God, what do they do?
00:03Oh, please solve this problem for me, you know, my son is drinking so much,
00:10you know, he's not succeeding, you know, please solve this out,
00:14please, my husband is going sideways there, you know, please, can you please?
00:19You are telling God your problem.
00:24You are sitting there conversing, telling Him
00:29all that He knows already.
00:33Actually, He's God, man, for God's sake, you know.
00:42What kind of God is that He don't know about your problem?
00:46Actually, He Himself gives you.
00:50Yeah, we were listening to the satsang, Krishna said,
00:55I shall give you more problems so that you remember Me.
00:58That's the prayer of Kunti, you know.
01:01He knows.
01:05But in place of really enjoying His presence,
01:10what we do,
01:13we are not listening to Him.
01:17we are not enjoying His presence.
01:21We are busy with ourself.
01:23We are busy with our own ego.
01:25And then we call that prayer.
01:28We are telling Him constantly,
01:30what you are doing is not right.
01:37Constantly, you are telling Him,
01:39look,
01:41I know better than you.
01:44Listen carefully, God.
01:46Shri Manarayana, listen carefully.
01:49You don't know.
01:51Guruji, you don't know.
01:53I know best.
01:56It has to be done like this,
01:58like this,
01:59like this,
01:59like this.
02:00Please, you solve this problem for me.
02:02You give me that.
02:03You make this right.
02:05You bring that person to me.
02:07You are sitting there
02:09and telling Him,
02:10dictated to Him,
02:11how He should run His business.
02:16That's what you call prayer?
02:22That's what people do.
02:24Sadly, it is like that.
02:26And then,
02:27with that attitude,
02:29He is talking,
02:31He is telling you,
02:32but you are so busy
02:34telling Him
02:35how He have to be,
02:38here we thank God,
02:39how He has to be,
02:40how He has to act,
02:42what He has to do.
02:44for your life to be better.
02:50You're not seeing
02:52your own stupidity.
02:56You're not seeing,
02:57but you should tell yourself
03:00what you have to change
03:01to make your own life better.
03:04That you don't see.
03:06But you're telling it to God.
03:08And you call it
03:09prayer.
03:14And then you want to find peace.
03:17You want to find happiness
03:18into that.
03:19How?
03:23When Bhagavan is talking to you,
03:25you are so busy with yourself
03:27but you can't even hear Him.
03:33what is prayer?
03:35What is prayer?
03:36It is that contemplation,
03:37it is that absorption,
03:40you know,
03:40when you can hear,
03:42like the bhajan said,
03:45vibration of Ram Nam,
03:47that vibration of the Divine Name
03:49inside of your heart itself,
03:51vibrating through you.
03:54And into that vibration
03:56of the Divine Name,
03:58you can hear Him
03:59talking to you.
04:01But for that,
04:03you have to be
04:04calm,
04:05you have to be
04:06quiet,
04:08you have to be
04:09absorbed
04:12into
04:14the heart itself,
04:15you know.
04:36that's the time,
04:36it's okay.
04:36Okay.
04:36You
