Maharaji - This Moment
 |
don’t try to figure out tomorrow
tomorrow is far away
so far away
yesterday has already left
it wants to sail on
let it go
be in the moment called now
where the sun is shining
shine bright with it.
-Prem Rawat
tomorrow is far away
so far away

be in the moment called now

Maharaji - Painting of Life
throw away
those little pieces of paper
get yourself a big, beautiful canvas
bring from this nature
the most beautiful colors
find the serene scene within
find the joy in each corner of your life
sit still and feel what is within you
sit still and paint like you have
never painted before.

the most magnificent flute plays
be silent
you will hear
playing in the heart of everyone
oblivious
to good, bad, right, wrong
it plays
this is kindness redefined.

Prem Rawat - Turn Within
within you is the most amazing feeling
you can possibly imagine
all that you look for, that you have looked
for all your life, is right inside of you
when you can look inside, you will find
the joy that you have always desired
this is a gift that you have, and I can show you a way to get in touch with it.

Maharaji - An Inner World
 |
while you have this consciousness, feel the joy in your life.
This is who we are.
Come and accept clarity in your heart.
Pay a little attention to this other world that is also a part of you— the world of the heart, the world of knowing, the world of clarity, the world of simplicity.
I guarantee you that you will feel good— a good that cannot be described in words.
And then, walk every step with clarity, with confidence.
Every day that you have, of all things that you can do, you can also be fulfilled.

Maharaji -The Truest Joy
The joy that you seek already exists in the heart.
All you have to do is awaken to this possibility.
Understand.
Feel.
Do you understand who you are?
You are conscious.
Because you are conscious, you can feel the infinite.
And when you do, joy happens— the truest joy.
Not “Happy Birthday” joy.
Not becoming a dad or mom joy, graduating joy, finding a job joy.
It is the joy that happens when the consciousness experiences the beauty inside— that joy.
The joy of being full.

Maharaji - Clarity
 |
In the realm of the heart, there is knowing.
To know, not have faith.
To walk in clarity, not in doubt.
People say, “Have faith, and that will overcome doubt.”
I say, “Have clarity, and that will overcome doubt.”
Which one?
Faith or clarity?
Clarity.
Not just, “I hope, I wish, I pray.”
But, “The next step will be taken with clarity, not wishful thinking.”
-Prem Rawat
Prem Rawat-Realm of the Heart
What I talk about is not dogmas, theories, descriptions, explanations.
This is about finding the joy in your life.
And not just once, but to have that joy available to you every single day for the rest of your life.
That’s it.
If you’re looking for descriptions, explanations, rules, something to believe in— you won’t find them here, because this is the realm of the heart.

Prem Rawat - Be Fulfilled
 |
Aren’t you curious which part of you dictates your life?
Both are parts of you, no question about it.
Which is the part that makes decisions for you?
It’s a very simple question, but it has incredibly profound consequences.
I’m not talking about decisions of what to eat, what movie to see, what clothes to buy, or even who to marry.
I’m talking about the decisions that really matter to you.
The heart is incapable of making decisions in an illusive world.
It does not understand it.
The mind is quite capable of making decisions in this world.
It does understand it, because it created it.
“We need this, we need this, we need this...”
The mind has made the world situation confusing.
But in the realm of the heart, there is no confusion.
There never was and never will be.
In the realm of the heart, there is only one thing: To be fulfilled.
To find that joy, to find that feeling— not a description of the feeling.

Words of Peace - Realm of the Heart
 |
There is something in you that, just by reading a description of food, can say, “That’s good.”
But your nature is that only after food has touched the tongue and the aroma has reached the nose can you say, “Wow! This is good!” So for one part of you, description is good enough.
For another part of you, something has to be real.
Then, and only then, is it accepted.
In that part of you that belongs to the realm of the real, there is something very beautiful called the heart.
In the realm of the heart, description means nothing.

Maharaji - Light and Darkness
 |
Many times, I ask, “Does light really know about darkness, and does darkness really know about light?” This is a very interesting question, because maybe we wonder, “Isn’t there some point where the two meet?” Think about it.
Does light know about darkness?
They have never met.
Can they ever meet?
I don’t think so, because their natures are so fundamentally different.
It is the same way in the world of the heart.
There are principles that guide and dictate the heart, and then there are principles that guide and dictate the mind.
Do the two know about each other?
I don’t think so, because their natures are so fundamentally different.
One does not rely on feeling or understanding.
The other does.

Prem Rawat - Hans Yog Sadhna
 |
Your strength lies in understanding your thirst, your need to be in that joy, to be in that happiness.
There is a dimension inside of you that is greater than all that you see on the outside.
You are more than the sum of all the bad that happens in your life.
Peace is inside of you even in turmoil, and you can experience that peace.
It begins with understanding your thirst for it.
- Guru Maharaji

Prem Rawat - One step at a Time

I am saying, “Let us know the dream of our heart to have that crystal clear water.”
Everybody can not only drink from it but bathe in it.
This is the dream; this is the possibility.
One step at a time.

Prem Rawat - Find your Peace
 |
Some people say, “If all the children were taken care of, there would be peace.”
God takes care of that child for nine months in the womb.
That’s not where the problem begins.
It’s when the child comes into our world.
Nine months— food, water, sleep— everything is perfectly taken care of.
I am not here to give you peace.
I am here to put the idea in your head that peace exists inside of you.
Start thinking, that’s all.
The thirsty will find the water, because they have the thirst.
But if there is no thirst, they could be standing next to a lake, and it won’t make any difference whatsoever.

Prem Rawat - Kindness
There is a saying: “If you are strong, you should be kind.
If you are smart, you should be simple.
If you are wealthy, you should be humble.”
I agree.
The kindness that needs to exist is in the heart of people, but skepticism hides that kindness.
If you are smart, you should be simple.
If you are wealthy, you should be humble.”
I agree.
The kindness that needs to exist is in the heart of people, but skepticism hides that kindness.
Prem Rawat - Kindness
 |
Peace and the quest for peace will persevere.
You are the little seeds that, when they germinate, carry on the cause of peace in this world.
What is peace?
People think, “If everybody had food, then we would have peace.”
Excuse me.
Who creates food?
Do people create food?
No.
We can sow the seeds.
Nature does the work.
Nature grows the trees and the fruit.
Is nature partial to what language you speak?
Is nature partial to any of the divisions that we have created?
No.
Can the people of this world be fed?
Yes.
What does it take?
Kindness.

Prem Rawat - Peace our Responsibility
 |
We have relied on institutions long enough.
Institutions can bring us prosperity— ways to flourish on the outside.
But when it comes to feeling the peace on the inside, this remains our responsibility.
I have gone from village to village.
I have seen the poor, and I have seen the rich.
These are society’s differences, the glasses they give us that say, “Look at me.
I am rich; I am poor.
I am tall; I am short.
I am a woman; I am a man.
I am educated; I am not educated.”
These divisions have pushed people further away from each other, not brought them together.
Look at the condition of this world.
There are more educated people today than there have ever been.
And look what that has brought.
If the solution lies anywhere, it is, and has always been, inside of us.
It is incumbent upon human beings to bring peace, to bring kindness to each other.

Prem Rawat - 6.7 Billion Reasons
 |
I have traveled the world many times speaking about peace.
And people ask me, “How is peace going to be possible?” I tell them, “Maybe you have ten reasons why peace is not possible: There is too much greed.
There are too many people who are hungry.
I have 6.7 billion reasons why there should be peace on this earth— 6.7 billion being the population of this earth, approximately.”
I have the same interest you do, the same quest as you, the same dream as you.
And we, the people, can make the difference for peace on this earth.

Maharaji - Accept this Breath
 |
This breath, accept it.
The day you do, that will be the most incredible act of worship you will have ever done.
Your heart will instantly fill with gratitude.
And when your heart is filled with gratitude, there is no greater heaven on the face of this earth.
Time stops; worries are gone.
The heart is filled with gratitude.
The heart is the best.
It will bring you back home.

Prem Rawat - Accept the Gift
 |
What do you want?
Look at your heart.
It hasn’t changed.
You may have gotten older, but your heart has not changed.
What you desired when you were very little, you still want today.
And it’s not the toys.
It’s the joy of being alive— to wake up, to want it, to grab it, to accept it in earnest.
I want you in your life to feel that feeling of fulfillment.
That’s all.
I’m not here to confuse you or tell you that everything you know is junk.
I’m not here to say you should follow a religion or not follow one.
Do whatever you have to do.
But of all the things you do in your life, do this one, too: feel fulfilled.
And of all the things you do, do this one also: accept the gift that has been given to you so abundantly.

Prem Rawat Maharaji - Worship
 |
Do you know what the greatest form of worship is?
Acceptance.
In that acceptance, in that understanding, clarity begins to come, not confusion.
What comes with joy is clarity.
These things are paired.
Clarity is paired with joy, not with confusion.
Confusion comes with doubt, anger, fear— all the things we don’t like and don’t know how to get rid of.
What is being offered is not just to feel that joy for one moment— which would be enough— but to feel it whenever you want to.
There is no question that whenever you turn within— be it your last breath or not— you will be rewarded with joy, with peace.

Prem Rawat - Pure Joy
 |
It’s not about the beginning or the end of life.
It is that one day, one minute, one second you are touched by the pure joy, the pure reality, that resides in you 24/7, that never abandons you.
Wherever you go, whoever you are, the gift keeps coming.
All you have to do to put your world right is to accept it.
That’s all.
You don’t have to ferment it, reshape it, cut it, wash it, frame it.

Guru Maharaji - Be Fulfilled
 |
When the call from within comes, when the heart says, “Be fulfilled,” we ignore it.
We think it is not significant enough, or we say, “I don’t have time for this stuff.”
We think that, as this breath has been coming and going, it will continue to come and go, and that there will be no end to it.
Excuse me, there is.
And the humility that it evokes is so amazing.
It’s not like a hammer falling down.
It’s a fine line.
One day, I have to go.
And when that becomes certain, the value of this time, this life, this breath becomes clear.

Prem Rawat - What is Your Reality
 |
People say, “Life is terrible.
If you think life is fun, if you think life is about joy, then you need a reality check.”
What is your reality?
My conviction, my understanding is that of all the days you have in this life, if just one day you are fulfilled, then this life was worth it.
If it was just six hours, three hours, one hour, one moment, one second of being able to realize what you have been given— this life was worth it.
You cannot realize what you have been given until you have accepted it from your heart.
Look at what you have been given in its entirety.
Even if it is for one second, it is so beautiful, so precious, that it is indeed enough.

Maharaji - Fun of all is to be Alive
We all want to have fun, to enjoy.
The most fun of all is to be alive.
Not everybody understands that, because we get caught up in what “fun” is, what life is, and how that should be defined.
And all of a sudden, we find ourselves coping with what is happening around us rather than enjoying.
Coping is totally different from enjoying in the truest sense.
I’m not talking about parties and balloons, but about something so essential to a human being— the fun of the heart.

Guru Maharaji - You Exist
 |
You exist.
You are alive.
Gather your strengths, not your weaknesses.
What are your strengths?
Your strengths are consciousness, kindness, understanding, acknowledging, rejoicing, loving.
And when you walk with these, the outcome is beautiful.
Every second you spend with the beauty inside of you, you are liberated.
You are free.

Prem Rawat - Opportunity
 |
Did God create the problems in this world?
No.
We did.
It is about human beings.
If you could just know that this life is the chance to spend time with that which is the truest, unconditional love... This is the opportunity for every living being to spend time with the Beloved within, to feel gratitude for life and rejoice.
When that happens, you feel alive, and you begin to live.
And the most magnificent movement is the coming and going of the breath.
It needs no proof, no buildup.
Its blessing is obvious.
Is it obvious to you?
No.
We did.
It is about human beings.

Maharaji - Sanity of being Alive
 |
Wherever you go and whatever takes place, just remember this: Life is not just ups and downs.
They happen.
That’s our doing.
By our unconsciousness, we allow greed, anger, and fear to overtake the sanity of being alive.
If there is suffering on planet Earth, it is brought by the people, for the people.
We are the ones that set the expectation of how everything should be.
“You should be like this, live for this long, look like this, look like that.”
-Prem Rawat
Prem Rawat - Best Friend
 |
Think of life like this: It is your opportunity to spend time with the best friend you ever had.
It is your chance to be with the ultimate clarity, the ultimate kindness, the ultimate joy.
That’s what a life is.
It’s not promised to be forever.
But the possibility exists that you get to spend time with that which is the most beautiful.
And that resides in your heart.

 |
Can life really be filled with infinite joy?
Is that possible?
If you doubt this, you don’t understand the nature of what resides within you, because what resides within you is complete joy, complete clarity.

Prem Rawat - Fundamental Need
 |
Being unconscious will get you hurt— no question about it.
When you don’t listen to your own fundamental needs, something will happen, and it will not be pleasant.
So what is pleasant?
Pleasant is when the priority of life is acknowledged and my heart is filled with gratitude.
When I know the friend within, when my house is built on the foundation of knowing— not beliefs, wishes, and ideas— it is very, very pleasant.
This is what life is all about— filling yourself with the pleasant, filling yourself with infinite joy.

Prem Rawat Words of Peace - Equilibrium
 |
We seek equilibrium.
The storms in our lives are not a good thing.
When a storm comes, we seek shelter.
We don’t say, “I’m going out in the storm now.
This is the perfect time.”
We need the equilibrium of feeling good.
I’m not going to define “feeling good.”
There are certain things that work for you, and certain things that don’t.
Feeling good works.
Feeling bad doesn’t.
You don’t get bored with feeling good.
When you are feeling bad, on the other hand, you want to get out of that situation.
This is your nature.

Prem Rawat-Words of Peace-Life
 |
What is this life all about?
One day, we all have to go.
You know that; it’s in the back of your mind some days.
Other days, you don’t bother thinking about it.
For most people, the subject is very unpleasant.
But the issue is your existence— you being alive.
Just what does that mean to you?
So many people say, “If we could just find a solution to this problem, everything would be fine.”
People everywhere basically know that they want to be happy.
They want to be content.
They want to feel good.
Every human being is innately like that.
This is our nature.

They want to be content.
They want to feel good.
Every human being is innately like that.
This is our nature.

Prem Rawat Maharaji-Words of Peace-Breath
 |
When this breath comes into you— and it just did— nobody can say, “I have been breathing for 60 years, so it’s okay if I don’t breathe for six hours.”
No, it’s not okay.
Each breath is needed.
Every day joy, peace, needs to be accepted, felt, understood.
This is the dance.
This is the symphony of life.
- Prem Rawat

Prem Rawat Maharaji-Words of Peace-Wisdom
 |
"That possibility is always there in your life.
If you have the wisdom, you will take advantage of it.
Sometimes people think wisdom is enlightenment.
They see an old painting of a saint with a light over their head and think, “Oh, that’s an enlightened person.”
But true enlightenment is when you recognize, and wisdom is deciding to choose the joy that is within you.
It is not about knowing what’s coming tomorrow.
Problems come and go.
If you have a problem, one day it will go just like it came.
Things will change— you will change— but the passion for joy, for clarity, will remain with you for the rest of your life."

Prem Rawat - Peace is very personal
 |
"Someone told me that they wanted peace so that they could give it to others.
But you can’t give your peace to anybody else, just as you can’t give anybody your time.
You cannot give a person who is dying even five more minutes.
Peace is very personal.
By having peace in your life, you can become a catalyst for others, this is true, but you cannot give them peace.
They have to find their own thirst, have their own understanding, and find that peace within."

Prem Rawat - Turn Inside
 |
"What an incredible opportunity it is to choose a gratification that is given every day when you turn inside.
It’s not about the struggles you’ve had or the list of failures, but about each success that took place.
You will still make mistakes, but the beauty is it’s not about mistakes or failures.
It’s not about the length of the night.
It’s about the rising of the sun.
The light comes, and a new day begins."

Prem Rawat - Realise the Pulse of Life
 |
"You are the vessel for the sweetest satisfaction, joy— the pure clear water of contentment.
When you are filled with this, you come alive, because that’s what life is.
You can understand.
You don’t have to be confused.
It’s that simple.
Realize the pulse of life."

Maharaji - Words of Peace - Open your heart
"Reality is beautiful.
Don’t try to measure it, because contentment, joy, love, understanding cannot be measured.
There is no scale for them.
Understand.
Open your heart.
Look within and see how beautiful it is.
Feel your life filled with joy, filled with gratitude, not explanations or ideas.
This is reality; no formulas or philosophies are needed to truly receive the gift every single day."

Words of Peace - Your Real Potential
 |
"What is your real potential?
There is a power, a beauty, that resides within.
When I turn within, my heart is filled with joy, peace.
I have to choose this every single day, because in this world, the line between the virtual and the real can become too faded.
And I choose reality, because it is far more beautiful."

What you are looking for is inside of you.
 |
"It is obvious that we make the choice.
And what should our choice be?
Well, to put it in context, there is a place you can go that is not really real.
It’s virtual.
There, you can create an alter— personality of yourself.
You can fly.
You can do all the things you’ve always wanted to do but could never do, but only virtually, not really.
In this virtual place, people buy apartments and sofas for apartments.
But when you buy the virtual apartment and the furniture, you pay for it with real money.
It’s a million— dollar— a— day business— $365,000,000 a year.
And it’s growing.
People even meet in this virtual place and get married!
I bring a message about reality, a message that says, “What you are looking for is inside of you.”
Who are you?
What are you?
What is your core?
We need to know that in this day and age more than at any other time.
Otherwise, our choices will be virtual or make— believe, but the consequences will be real.
Unfortunately, consequences are always real."

Prem Rawat - Words of Peace - Technology
 |
"Cell phones have saved many lives.
But the same technology that is saving so many lives is also being used in weapons and a weapons delivery system that is wiping out more lives than it is saving.
And the saving might happen over a period of a year, but the destruction happens within days."

Prem Rawat - Words of Peace - Subject of Life
 |
"It’s so important to understand the subject of this life.
I don’t think the importance of truly grasping what this means can be over— emphasized.
As human beings, we have an incredible brain, incredible talent.
We can accomplish so many things— almost too many.
Because we are alive, we can experience peace and joy.
We can go to the moon and create space stations.
We can peer into the deep, deep reaches of the universe.
And because we are alive, we can also create wars, decimate this planet, and make it impossible for everything to exist." - Prem Rawat

Prem Rawat - Words of Peace - Enjoy
"You will be set free when you understand that you do not need the support of all the ideas, that you can just stand on this bridge of life, and that it is solid, good, strong.
You can jump on it, and it won’t fall down.
You will be able to appreciate its strength.
And then your heart will fill with gratitude for all that you have been given.
And when your heart fills with gratitude, you will have the answers without needing the questions.
It gets better and better, because there is no limit to that better, and there is no limit to the ability you have been given to enjoy." - Prem Rawat

Prem Rawat Maharaji - Knowledge
Knowledge
“The journey of Knowledge is a journey of self-discovery.
What Knowledge makes possible is an enjoyment of life that is independent of circumstances. It is a way to connect to the experience of the self that lies within. Knowledge consists of four techniques that enable a person to turn their attention from the outside to the inside.
It is not imagination or visualization. It is a practical way to focus within to access what is already there. For those who wish to make this journey, I offer to help them prepare to learn the techniques of Knowledge, and I provide ongoing inspiration and guidance for a lifetime of enjoyment.”
The techniques of Knowledge are taught free of charge without regard to a person’s gender, economic or social status, sexual preference, lifestyle, race, religious or ethnic background.
Few Questions related to knowledge »
Q: Does this have something to do with religion, a spiritual path, or a philosophy?
A: What Maharaji offers is independent of and compatible with any religion. Knowledge is a practical way of experiencing peace within. It is not related to any philosophy, belief system, or spiritual path.
Q: Is Knowledge a solution to problems?
A: Knowledge does not remove or resolve problems; it enables a person to go inside and find the peace that resides within. Knowledge also does not provide or replace medical diagnosis or treatment for physical or mental medical issues.
Q: Is this Knowledge difficult to learn?
A: The techniques are simple to practice and can be learned by anyone. To reap the fruits of Knowledge requires commitment and a sustained effort.
Q: If I am interested in this Knowledge, what will be asked of me, and will I have to change my lifestyle or join something?
A: All that is involved is to learn more about the message and what is offered, develop your own understanding, and decide for yourself if it is something you truly wish to pursue. Knowledge is independent of a person’s lifestyle. Pursuing this Knowledge is an individual, personal journey. There is no group or organization to join.
Prem Rawat Maharaji - The Keys
The Keys
Many people, as they hear Prem Rawat, uncover the depth behind his words and experience hope and inspiration. While some people feel satisfied just listening, others want to experience for themselves the peace within that he says is possible. For those, he offers a practical way – four techniques he calls Knowledge.
To guide people through the preparation process of receiving Knowledge, Maharaji has produced videos called The Keys.
Before learning these techniques, there is a period of preparation that takes from three to five months. The preparation involves viewing The Keys. These videos clear your doubt and confusion, and answer most of your questions.
There are six Keys. Each one of them is a key point in the preparation. The first five each consist of a presentation by Maharaji and up to twelve hours of supporting video material. Watching these videos helps a person develop the necessary understanding before being taught the techniques of Knowledge.
The sixth Key is shown during a special session in which Maharaji teaches the techniques of Knowledge via a video presentation. Such sessions take place throughout the year all over the world.
As of May 2008, Key Six sessions have been held in 621 cities in 67 countries in the last eight years. The Key Six session is available in 68 languages and has been attended by 365,237 people during that period.
