一個禱告 A Prayer

#199 1999/4/15 夏威夷 可愛島

不要賜給我乾渴，如果你無法給我水。

不要賜給我飢餓，如果你無法給我食物。

不要賜給我喜樂，如果我無法與人分享。

不要賜給我技能，如果我無法善加利用。

不要賜給我智力，如果我無法超越它去認知事物。

不要賜給我知識，如果我無法消化它。

不要賜給我愛，如果我無法服務人群。

不要賜給我無法帶領我回到你那兒的慾望。

不要賜給我無法帶我回家的路。

不要賜給我任何你不想聽的禱告(笑聲)

問：當你禱告時，你在向誰祈禱？

古儒吉：向我自己！在禱告中，心智回歸到它自己的源泉──本我。上帝、上師和本我是一樣的。

迪恩說：不要賜給我時間，如果我不知道如何去管理它。

丹尼爾說：古儒吉說，「你們全都沒有了時間了！」(笑聲)

199 A PRAYER

Weekly Knowledge #199 Kauai, Hawaii 15 Apr 1999 USA

Give me not thirst if you cannot give me water.
Give me not hunger if you cannot give me food.
Give me not joy if I cannot share.
Give me not the skills if I cannot put them to good use.

Give me not intelligence if I cannot perceive beyond it.
Give me not knowledge if I cannot digest it.
Give me not love if I cannot serve.
Give me not desire that doesn't lead me to you.
Give me not a path that doesn't take me home.
Give me not a prayer if you don't want to hear it. (Laughter)

Question: When you pray, to whom do you pray?

Sri Sri: To myself! In prayer the mind goes to its source, the Self. God, Guru, and the Self are the same.

 Dean says: Give me not time if I don't know how to manage it.

Daniel says: Gurudev says, "You're all out of time..." (Laughter)

NEWS FLASH: Guruji arrived in Singapore for a big Satsang in the football stadium. As usual, Nature cooperated by providing good weather. Then a Satsang in Kuala Lumpur. In Japan people called together others on their cell phones -- a spontaneous cellular Satsang! Sri Sri is now on Kauai, Hawaii, where the laughter here is competing with the waves on the ocean.
