Listen. Agni is the knower of all of our actions and all that is worth knowing in the Universe He knows. Please understand, anywhere knowledge happens, Agni has to be there. Without Agni knowledge cannot happen. All the spaces, planets, where Agni is not possible, knowledge is not possible. The modern day scientist are searching and trying to find if there is a place with is water, human beings will be there, aliens will be there, I tell you, no, if there is a place where Agni can happen, then only life can happen, knowledge can happen, nowhere else. Only where Agni can happen, knowledge can happen, life can happen, nowhere else. Agni, who is knower of all our actions, AND everything worth knowing. Whatever is worth knowing in the planet earth, Agni knows it, He knows it. The Upanishic Rishis are addressing Agni as knower of all of our actions, and all that is worth knowing. Then they pray – “you must take us along the righteous and auspicious path of completion. You must take us…” Please understand, the prayer is not casual, very deep, detailed, you ‘must’ take us along righteous and auspicious path of completion.

supathā rāye asmān viśvāni deva vayunāni vidvān | 

You must take us along the righteous and auspicious path of completion, leading us to experience the Supreme Consciousness, the original space of Complete completion.

I can say that this is the best prayer you can offer to God when you meet him personally. This is the best prayer you can offer to your Guru, when you meet him directly.

Please, take me along the righteous and auspicious path of completion, leading us to experience the Supreme Consciousness.

I tell you praying for the Enlightenment is the greatest thing that can happen. Intensely seeking enlightenment, praying for enlightenment. I tell you, more and more you pray for enlightenment, more and more your routine will become integrated. Laziness will never be part of you, boredom will never be part of you. Boredom and laziness is nothing but you do not want to hold onto your ideals, that’s’ all. You do not want to hold onto what is life for you, what life hold for you. You don’t need to poison a man who is lazy and bored because he is already lazy and bored. You don’t need to poison a man who has become lazy and bored because he is already poisoned, you don’t need to double poison him.

If you want to destroy somebody, just teach them laziness, that is all. Make them lazy, over. You’ destroyed them. Make them feel tired, over, bored, over. Laziness, boredom, these two grows in you when you do not remember the purpose of your existence. Seeking and praying for enlightenment – these two makes you reinvent yourself, awakens you. It is like the amrta during the old age. In the old age if you drink the nectar, suddenly you become sixteen and start the new life.

Listen, seeking the truths of life, praying for enlightenment – these two kindles the whole Fire in you. I tell you, if you have a wheezing problem, stomach problem, any of the issues related to gas and water, means like a cold, all these— just pray for Enlightenment, you will be healed; because when you pray for enlightenment the fire in the body will be kindled intensely. You will be immediately healed because the fire in the body if it is kindled, whole system goes through a re-invention of itself.

Understand, every time you pray for Enlightenment, fire in your system will be rudely awakened, rudely awakened, that is the word I am using. It’ll be so rudely awakened. The sleep, tiredness, boredom— while you are in the daytime, if you are day dreaming, in the night you will be just moving in the bed this way and that way, you won’t sleep. Just pray for Enlightenment this problem will be solved, because the daydreaming will drop. When the daydreaming drops the night dreaming will drop, you will become so alive, so alive. Constantly praying for Enlightenment to the Cosmic energy. You can call it as God or Guru, whatever, it’s up to you. Constantly praying intensely awakens that joy, fire energy in you and keeps it alive. That’s the main thing, makes you reinvent yourself, makes you reinvent yourself.

“O Agni, the Fire God! Knower of all our actions and all that is worth knowing, you must take us along the righteous and auspicious path of completion, leading us to experience the Supreme Consciousness, the original space of Complete Completion.”

Praying, praying, praying for Enlightenment – knowing even while you are praying you are He, so’hamasmi. Even when you remembering – you are He, so’hamasmi. Pray intensely, constantly for Enlightenment with the context even when you are praying you are He, you are He.
