Salutations to Shri Shri Gupto Sadhak Syamakhapa. Namaskar. Offering our respects to Guru Dev Gupto Sadhak Shri Shri Syamakhapa, we begin today’s program from Shantikunja. Let us all listen to the invaluable words of Guru Dev. Pranam, Guru Dev.
Guru Shyama Khyapa
Pranam, my son.
Devotee
Guru Dev, a war-like urgency has currently emerged in society.
Guru Shyama Khyapa
What is that?
Devotee
We are seeing crowds gathered everywhere, as if something major, like a war, is about to happen.
Guru Shyama Khyapa
Well, until recently, it was somewhat less. There were crowds of a few thousand people, and the police would intervene, sometimes using force to disperse them. Many things happened. But now, we see these lines for liquor. I was astonished to see lines stretching for a mile or a mile and a half, blocking the roads just to buy alcohol. And people aren't following any rules. What can we do if they won’t listen? No one is following instructions. If you look at the liquor lines, people are practically falling on top of one another.
However, the government has prohibited such gatherings. I don't know why the government opened these shops or what their objective was; that is not for me to know. But looking at the crowds in front of the liquor shops, I wonder how much the police can really do. If people lack basic consciousness, what can the police achieve? It is almost laughable. The government tells everyone to maintain distance and not gather together, yet looking at these liquor lines, I realized that a whole force has to be deployed just for this—DGs and IGs are coming down.
I don’t understand what harm would have been caused if they stayed closed for a few more days until the corona situation subsided. Just this month of May—this is a very dangerous and bad month. I have said repeatedly to move with caution this month, yet they opened the liquor shops right in the middle of it. Well, that is the government’s business. Cases are increasing. In our South 24 Parganas, there were almost no cases, but already we have seen eight. It won't take long for it to spread further.
Therefore, I feel that people have no consciousness, nor will they develop any. People will continue to die like this. As the saying goes, "The ant grows wings only to meet its end."
Devotee
Guru Dev, there is another thing we are seeing. You have been immersed in spiritual practice (Sadhana) for nearly 33 years. When you speak on various topics, a sentiment of "As many faiths, so many paths" (Joto Mot Toto Poth) is often created.
Guru Shyama Khyapa
That is a fact. Indeed, that is what Ramakrishna said.
Devotee
But some people are saying that you haven't read the Quran Sharif and that you are speaking incorrectly.
Guru Shyama Khyapa
Incorrectly? Who says I haven't read the Quran Sharif? Let me show them—I have the Quran Sharif right here. Look, I have the Quran Sharif, and I read it regularly. This is not just a picture; this is the book, the Quran Sharif. Look at this. They ask if I know Arabic, but you will see that every part has Bengali translations. Below the Arabic text, the Bengali meaning is written. Now, the problem is that those who don't know are making random comments. These comments are not right.
Devotee
What would you like to say to them?
Guru Shyama Khyapa
What is there to say? People who don't know are making baseless comments. I have the Quran Sharif; I have the Hadith; I have everything. I don't speak without reading. My request to them is: please come here, learn from me, and then make your comments. This is the proof of whether I read the Quran or not.
Do you understand? And I will tell you one more thing. I have practiced Tantra Sadhana, that is true. But there is one type of Tantra I haven't spoken about yet. It is a formidable Tantra. I will speak on it in the coming days. Look at this—this is Adorini Tantra.
I have never spoken about this Tantra before. It is a very intense practice. In West Bengal, it is practiced in only one place, and one person specifically performed it and earned great acclaim. Newspapers and everyone else wrote about it regarding Abhijit Babu. He sent me this book on Tantra. I am familiar with it, but these Tantric practices are so secretive that it is generally better if the public doesn't hear about them. Regardless, I will speak about this Tantra in a day or two. This is Adorini Tantra, a formidable Tantra. You can tell just by looking at the images. I will speak on this. No one is really familiar with it.
No one at all. Abhijit Babu performed this Tantra and left some instructions behind. I will definitely speak on it; I have finished reading the book thoroughly. As for the Quran Sharif and the Hadith, I have read those as well. If anyone says otherwise, I would say they are lying and making comments without knowledge. One should not comment without knowing the facts. Yet, ordinary people ask me, "Have you read the Quran?" Well, I have the Quran and the Hadith right here; I’ve shown the proof. I haven't just started reading them today. So, before making a comment, think it over. That is my only point.
