Discourse on 2nd July 2009 frisco texas "Discard the Garbage to attain Joy"

Jaya Guru Datta
In this country (USA), we have many settlements and places with names New York, New England, New Hampshire, Little Rock, Little England etc. If so, why cannot we have little India here at this Ashrama?? Culture and Tradition are basis of our healthy existence. Dharma in the form of morality should be the back bone of our existence.

We are following many examples for enjoyment. But, it is high time to choose our model characters, for us to follow. Lord Rama, Hanuman and similar role models should inspire us in our life. We think of Frustration, despair quite often and even worry death. What is the need of it? As long we live, let us live a life of happiness and joy which is possible thru contentment only. Cause of all our worries is the garbage accumulation in our mind. Discard the garbage! You will be happy again. It is easier said than done. How to discard the long accumulated Garbage! It is not an easy job. Here is why you are. You are here with Sadguru, who will help you discard the rot in mind.

The annual cleansing program is what Guru Poornima signifies. Inspired by our Masters thru generations, we are carrying out the job. The tradition has amply demonstrated the importance of this annual conditioning camp of revering one’s own Guru, to discard despair and lust. With the conviction that he Guru is the saviour of mankind, we should carry out the instructions without fail. That is the key to happiness!

We pray that Datta blesses all of you find that key to happiness!
