Sri Sri's New Year Message 古儒吉的新年讯息
December 31, 2012
Berlin, Germany
2012 is passing rather very fast. Let us recapture!
When this year began, there was a lot of talk about 21 December 2012. Therewere rumors that the world is going to end. And there are many people whobelieve rumors; at least some people believe in rumors very strongly.
So people started hoarding food in their basements, waiting for the doomsday tofall.
I have always been saying that no such thing is going to happen.
Of course, this year we have seen many catastrophes, like almost every year.Maybe little more. US had a big catastrophe, Japan had problems, and there wereproblems in many other parts of the world as well; Nature’s fury.
At the same time the economic gloom, which people thought is going to reallymake the situation worse, was also managed. Still everything is working well.People are surviving. Of course things have to become better and it has startedbecoming better already.
This coming year, 2013, will be much better.
There is a big awareness in people today, towards the environment,towards the safety of women and children.
What we have been saying for so many years, today many people are waking up andsaying, 'We need more human values, we want violence to go down.’
This year, let us all resolve to act for making a better society - a societyfree from violence, society free from crime and corruption, a society which issafe and just, and a world which is sustainable.
Most of all, we need to work towards spiritual elevation and spiritualawakening. And it will happen. In fact, it is already happening. More and morepeople are interested in spiritual awakening.
The Art of Living is going to make a big leap. This year we will beteaching two new Kriyas, which will make people's lives much morejoyful. People will feel so much more joyful, so much more dynamic, so muchmore committed, compassionate and creative.
Time poses challenges, it is for you to see how you can benefit fromthese challenges. Every time a challenge is in front of you, see how you canmake this challenge, an opportunity for your own growth. How you can turn itand utilize it for your own growth. This is what you need to do.
As you are coming to the end of this year, think of all those challengesyou had, and how they have contributed to your growth. Think of how you handledthese challenges, and while handling them, what mistakes you made, and fromthose mistakes, what lessons did you infer. This is the first step.
Second, think of gifts that the past year has given to you; has broughtto your life, and how you are going to utilize these gifts for the bettermentof life on the planet.
See, everyone is bestowed with some or other talents, some or othergifts. You need to see how are you utilizing these talents.
Are you utilizing them at all? This is what you need to point out.
Plan for this year; in the next 12 months, what are you going to do every day?!
Everyday, do meditation. Once in every three to four months take some time offand go deeper into meditation and go into silence. At least once a year, youmust meditate in silence (Advanced Course), and spend some time doingsome good work for the society and for everybody on the planet.
Don't think only about yourself, but do some service activity. Then you willsee that whatever you want for yourself, you ask and it will come to you.
You have to do something first, then when you ask, you will get.
If you say, ‘I want only for myself, I don't want to do anything’, no, thatwill not work. You should do some good work in society, bring smiles on thefaces of people and gain some merit. If you bring smiles on the faces of othersthen you have a right to demand something for yourself. Do you see what I’msaying? This is real currency.
See, if you have money then you can go shopping. If you have no money,no credit card and you go shopping, who will give you anything? You need tohave some bank balance first, isn't it? So, when you do seva, your bank balancegoes up. Then when you ask for whatever it is that you want, you will get it.
You can buy the whole supermarket if you have enough points.
So let us resolve to do something good in society, and let us have theconfidence that whatever we need will come to us; will be given to us.
Our wish will definitely be granted. When we wish something, it will begranted.
Next, you need to be ready to learn new lessons in life.
Keep the cheer, the joy and smile throughout the journey of life. Got it?
See, everyone is walking. Some are yelling, crying and walking and some aresmiling and walking.
Everybody is on a conveyor belt and the belt is moving. Some are crying, someare laughing, but the conveyor belt is anyway moving.
So, it is your choice, how do you want to move on this conveyor belt of time.
See, in a car, you have a rearview mirror, isn't it?!
You have a big windshield, and there is a small rearview mirror.
Just imagine if your car’s rearview mirror is as big as the windshield andwindshield is as small as the rearview mirror, what will happen to you? Can youdrive? No!
Your car can teach you a lesson. What is the lesson? You need to lookback only a little bit, just like that little mirror.
The rearview mirror represents the past, and the present is the windshield. Thefuture is like the side view mirrors. So, when you drive, you will have to lookto the side and to the back as well, but most of the time, you have to look inthe front.
If you only keep looking at the side mirrors while driving, you will meet withan accident. So you should look front, but sometimes look at the side mirrors,and sometimes at the rearview mirror. Look a little at the past and the future,but most of the time be in the present.
What do you say?
Time has come, voices of the good people will become stronger now.
All those people who are doing bad things will come to light and their mindswill change. Waves of spirituality will start transforming people. This isgoing to happen in the coming years. This wave will become much morepredominant.
Those people who are cheating others, they will all come down from their seatsof power, and then they will be exposed. People who are cheating others will beexposed, this will happen.
So, good times are there in front of us.
古儒吉的新年讯息
2012年12月31日 德國，柏林
2012過得非常的快。讓我們回顧一下。在年初的時候， 很多人都在討論12月21號這件事。謠言說世界末日將到來。而很 多人也相信了這一點；至少有一些人非常相信這些謠言。所以人們開 始在地下室儲藏食物，等待著末日的到來。我一直在說這樣的事情是 不會發生的。當然今年的確是發生了不少的災難， 幾乎這幾年都是那樣。可能也多了一些。美國有大災難， 日本也面對問題，世界的其它國家也是;大自然在憤怒。 同一時間還有經濟風暴，人們本以為這會雪上加霜， 但是一切都還是妥善被處理了。一切都在正常運作。 人們還是存活了。當然事情會漸漸變好的， 事實上它已經在開始變好了。接下來的一年，2013，會更好。
現今的人們對於環境，女人和小孩的安全都有了很大的意識。
一些我們已經重覆了很多年的事情，現在終於有人醒過來說『我們需要更多的人類價值觀，我們要杜絕暴力。』今年讓我們大家立志為一個更美好的社會付諸行動——一個無暴力的社會，一個免於犯罪和貪污腐敗的社會，一個安全和可持續發展的社會。最重要的是，我們要邁向靈性的提升和覺醒。這是會發生的。實際上它已經在發生了。越來越多的人對靈性的醒覺有興趣了。生活的藝術也會做個很大的跨步。今年我們將會教兩個新的呼吸法（Kriya），它會讓人們的生命更喜悅。人們會感受到更多的喜悅，更活躍，更多的承諾，慈悲和創意。
時間會帶來挑戰，它是讓你去看見你從這些挑戰當中獲取多少的益處。挑戰無時無刻都會在你面前，去看看你要怎樣面對這些挑戰，它給了你成長的機會。你要如何扭轉它，並讓它有助於你的成長，這就是你應該做的。當你來到了這一年的尾聲，去想想過去的那些挑戰，它們讓你成長了多少。去思考你是如何處理那些挑戰，在處理它們的同時，你做了些什麼錯誤，從錯誤當中，你推測到怎麼樣的教訓。這是第一步。再來，去想一想你在往年，在生命裡得到了什麼禮物，而你是如何去善用這些禮物？你可否將它們為這個星球上帶來更美好的生活。
每個人都是被賦予一些才能的，或是一些禮物。你必須去善用這些天賦。你們有好好應用它嗎？你需要把這些指出。為今年做規劃，接下來的12個月裡，你每一天要做些什麼？每一天都要靜心。每三到四個月就讓自己休息一下，進入深層的靜心和寂靜。一年至少需要禁言靜心一次（高級課程），也用些時間去做些對社會和整個星球的人有貢獻的事情。不要只是想到你自己而已，也需要去做些服務活動。然後你就會發現你所為自己祈求的，你都會得到。你必須先開始付諸於行動，然後你所祈求的才會成真。如果你只是說『我只要為我自己而已，其它的我都不要做』，不，這是行不通的。你應該在社會裡做些好事，帶給別人歡笑，為自己積德。如果你帶給別人歡笑，那你就有權利為自己要求些其它的。你們明白我所說的嗎？這是真正的匯率。
如果你有錢，那你才可以去購物。如果你沒有錢，沒有信用卡，而你去購物的話，有人會給你東西嗎？你必須先有一些銀行存款，對嗎？所以當你做義工（Seva）的時候，你的銀行存款就會增加。那個時候你所為自己要求的，你都會得到。如果你有足夠的分數，你甚至可以買整個超級市場。所以讓我們立志去為社會做些好事，也讓我們有足夠的信心去相信我們所需要的都會到來，都會被給予。我們的願望都會被給予。當我們希望得到一些東西的時候，它都會被給予。
接下來你需要準備好去學習生命裡的新課程。在生命的旅程裡保持歡樂，喜悅和微笑。知道嗎？看吧，每個人都在走動，有些人邊走邊大聲叫喊，哭泣，而有些人是帶著歡笑走著。每個人都在运输带上， 而帶子正在走動著。有些人在哭泣，有些在哈哈大笑， 但是帶子還是會繼續走動。所以這就是你的選擇。 你想要如何在這時間的運輸帶上移動。
車子有後視鏡對嗎？你有大大的擋風鏡，和小小的後視鏡。想像如果你的車的後視鏡是和擋風鏡一樣大，而擋風鏡卻只是像後視鏡那麼小，會發生什麼事呢？你還能駕駛嗎？是不能的！你的車子也給了你一個教訓。這個教訓是什麼？你只需要往後看一點點而已，就像那小小的鏡子那樣。後視鏡代表著過去，而擋風鏡是當下。而未來就像是側視鏡。當你駕駛的時候，你也需要看看傍邊和後面，但是多數的時候你還是得看前面。如果你只是單單看側視鏡來駕駛，這樣會發生車禍的。你需要往前看，但是有些時候也看一看側視鏡和後視鏡。對過去和未來看一看就好，而多數的時間都處在當下。你們怎麼說？
時代已經來到了，善良的人的聲音會變得更強壯。 做惡事的人會來到光的面前，他們的心智會改變。靈性的浪潮會開始帶給人們轉變。這些會發生在接下來的幾年裡。這個浪潮會成為主流。那些欺騙人們的人，他們會卸下他們的權利，他們也會被揭穿。欺騙人們的人會被揭穿。美好的時刻已經來到我們的面前了。
