MUTTER

And once we discussed that Mars chose to transform and become a planet?

Guruji: Mars was the son of Mother Earth, he takes care of Mother Earth: Shiva is the father and Earth is the mother. And it keeps taking care of Earth. If you remember, on 17th July 2003 Mars was at the nearest point to Earth — in 76,000 years. And Earth, Moon, Sun and Mars were in one straight line: and the Earth shifted a little. Everything is different now: so he just came nearer to take care of the mother.

Look at the DNA: they are much nearer to the mother than the father.

But in Ayurveda it is said that the skin, blood and flesh you’re taking from the mother — but the bones and nerves you’re taking from the father: is it true?

Guruji: Not exactly.

That’s very interesting — because my second child is exactly like me: what is it?

Guruji: Mind over matter (smiling). And I think matter — you go to the German language — mother is called “Mutter”. Mutter and matter: matter may be the mother of all Creation. We must pay more attention to the languages: they carry very deep meaning.

Why is practice so destructive to the body that we need to exercise?

Guruji: Exercise is not done to destroy your body: it is done to make your body more capable, more strong.

Yes, I mean the practice of Kriya?

Guruji: Samadhi experience. Because it is as good as death. Death experience you’re going through — old age will come: because death is connected with old age. So you need to learn how to neutralize it.

Like balancing?

Guruji: If you want to say this — ok.

That’s why the practice requires a strong body?

Guruji: Otherwise how will you do pranayamas and all these things? You’re using your body to do it. We’re not sitting quietly and thinking nice thoughts. Nice thoughts will come on their own.
