Category: Today: Yogi Bhajan

“Now we have to understand, clearly and consciously, how we can tune our mind to Infinity. You should have started learning this when you were one day old. Now one day plus all the days you have lived, that is your handicap. It is that handicap which we have to overcome. And there is a mantra which gives us a secret power. Today I’ll tell you the secret of chanting the Ong mantra. There is a pre-condition to the mantra, because sometime you may just get into your ego and chant Ong and not come back. Whenever you chant it, you must meditate first on the primal sound “Saa-Taa-Naa-Maa” and then do it. So let me record that warning and then we are free, we can do it.” Yogi Bhajan

“You have come here to be teachers. You should understand something about life. Life is not what you think. Life is not what you want. Life is not in surrender. Life is not in revolt. Life is not in disobedience. Life is not in obedience. Life is in life, which must be accepted, must be lived, must be recognized, must be organized. It must be mutual in essence. There are three stages. If there is a truth, it will be universal and mutual to all. If it is an ego, it will be mutual only to a few. If it is a neurosis, then it will be mutual only to you.” Yogi Bhajan

“We are not fools when we tell you, “Get up in the morning and have a cold shower.” All we want is the blood to circulate through the capillaries, and there’s no way to open the capillaries but to take a cold shower. There’s no other way. In the West it is called “hydrotherapy.” In the East it’s called “ishnaan.” It’s a most beautiful thing. When you take a cold shower, the blood from inside hits the outside to cover the attack. In that fast movement, it opens the capillaries. When the capillaries are open, they feed your glands, and when a glandular system is well-fed, it secretes. The chemistry of your blood becomes perfect. That gives you a capacity to act, think, know; and it gives you grit, stamina. What is so bad about that?” Yogi Bhajan

“Once you surrender, the karma surrenders with it; and once the karma surrenders with it, you are free. Then you can adopt Dharma. The moment you are in Dharma, and Dharma is your priority, you will never be subject to karma—you are free, you are liberated, you are fine. You are yourself. And then you enjoy yourself. You say what you feel, you do what you feel, you are an elevated self. It’s very fine, it’s very neat.” Yogi Bhajan

“Some people waste their entire life showing off that they are somebody. Some people waste their entire life rebelling. Some people are egomaniac neurotics; they will build themselves into a millionaire, and then destroy it. What a drama! What is this? Have you seen some people? With all that God has given to them, they are very ungrateful. They will plead poor, they will plead miserable.” Yogi Bhajan

Yogi Bhajan’s Seven Steps to Happiness

See my movie review of “The Old Man And the Gun”

“If you do not have the purpose of your life, all purposes of life will not fit in. You don’t understand that there is a problem in us. We are not born to suffer. We suffer because we don’t have motivation, we don’t have purpose. We think if we are making “x” amount of money, we are fine, if we have “x” amount of sex, we are fine, if we have “x” amount of security, we are fine. We have a judgment on everything. That’s what our measurement is, but this measurement is ridiculous.” Yogi Bhajan

“The human is the light: mental, spiritual, self, and the teacher is the embodiment of it. It delightfully lights everything, and removes the darkness.” Yogi Bhajan

Meditation: NM0410 Ek Ong Kar

“Never utter a word if it’s not from your navel point, and it doesn’t confirm your regal, highest self. Once you start speaking from your anhad, the navel point, in your royalty, you shall live royally. All riches shall come to you, and everybody will feel you.” Yogi Bhajan

Meditation: BNM0364-20001023-On Communication I

“From the One you came, the one you are, in zero, into Infinity you have to merge. Or from Infinity you have to come. In that One Infinity you exist, and then you merge into that One which is your Infinity. So you are born from zero, and you are to die at One. That’s your exit. If your exit is Oneness, that Infinity, that quality, that quantity, that realm of consciousness which has absolutely all the width you need, finally you will have no dimension; Then you are not measurable, you are not understandable, you are not. You become “not”.” Yogi Bhajan

Meditation: Breath to conquer time space and destiny

“So, you have all come here to become teachers and you must understand the faculty of teacher. A Teacher is sharp enough to cut the hardness of the heart, the rudeness of the mind, the falsehood of the head, and the shakiness of the feet. A Teacher challenges you with an absolute definitive graceful power of projection and leaves you no alternative but to submit, surrender, and come in obedience. You are going to become Teachers. Are you going to be that powerful, with that caliber?” Yogi Bhajan

“It is not that the Teacher is a super human being. The Teacher gives you a chance to become a super human being.” Yogi Bhajan

Meditation: The Neutral Mind

“A Teacher is not a public relations package—very charming, very beautiful, very marvelous, very gracious, very kind, very sweet. That’s an angel, not a Teacher. Very passionate, very loving, very darling, very attractive, very knowing—that may be a professor, not a Teacher. Very knowledgeable, very sharing, very high-grade knowing, absolutely, amazingly all the best there is. That may be a sage, a wise sage, a saint—not a Teacher.” Yogi Bhajan

Meditation: The Neutral Mind

“You have no sensitivity that your soul shall leave in the subtle body, and that your subtle body is as sophisticated as anything in the universe can be. So unless you produce in yourself elegance, grace, sophisticatedness in your mind, manners, and attitude, and unless you come from that Infinite altitude, and ascend to that altitude, you cannot descend in love. The higher is your being, the deeper is the love.” Yogi Bhajan

Meditation: NM0410 Ek Ong Kar

“Spiritual means me within me is infinite, and me within me as infinite shall relate, experience, express, and project Infinity.” Yogi Bhajan

Meditation: Karma & Dharma

“You have soul mates: your intellect, consciousness, subconscious, unconscious, you have your ten bodies. They are the mates of your soul; they come with the soul. So in your soul-mate system, you have bodies and you have aspects of your mind all together. Then you have a soul-mate which is called time and space and longitude and latitude. It’s a mating season of you and your self. Then you take the altitude and attitude to keep all these sixteen horses going, so you can carry your carriage.” Yogi Bhajan

Meditation

“I don’t care whether people say I am a good Teacher or a bad Teacher, I’m a right Teacher or a wrong Teacher, as long as I know there are teachings, and I am carrying and sharing them as they are. In the purity of the teachings lies the purity of the Teacher. There’s no other rule. You have the right to joke. You can add astrology, astronomy, whatever you want to talk about. But you know, at the time that you say, “Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo,“ you are not an astrologer.” Yogi Bhajan
