---錫呂格涅沙和平衡(上)---
我們必須了解錫呂格涅沙(Shri Ganesha)如何帶給我們平衡(balance)，錫呂格涅沙的代表符號卐(swastika)正是代表平衡而已。當它不動的時候就代表平衡，當它開始朝正確的方向移動，就會成就建設性的工作，且成就了所有對生命重要的事物。當它反方向移動時，破壞性的工作就開始了。建設性及破壞性兩部分會達成平衡，假如沒有，那麼生命就無法繼續。例如在大自然裡，先是花開了，當花凋謝死亡時，就產生果實。樹木的水份會蒸發到天空，假如不是這樣，那就不會引發下雨。冬天時樹木會落葉，因為這些樹葉必須死亡、掉落在大地，用它的氮元素來滋養母親大地，然後在夏天時，這些樹葉又長回來。
所以生命就是如此，凡是被創造的都會被毀滅，然後新的又產生。當新的事物產生時，表示它走在創造之路，然後這被創造的(至少)有部分又會被毁壞，所以死亡就蘊藏在生命之中。假如沒有死亡，你可以想像從古至今所有的人都活著，那麼我們如何存活在這麼擁擠的世界？其實我們根本就不可能存在！
許多已死去的動物也轉世為人，人也必須死亡，如此其他的人才能來到這地球。(有一天)你也必須死去，然後休息一陣子，之後再回到這地球。所以死亡只是生命的轉變而已，沒有死亡，那生命不可能存在。生命和死亡之間是一個平衡。
做為霎哈嘉瑜伽士不應該害怕死亡，因為假如一個人將要死去，其實他只是要進入另一個(型態的)生命，在那裏他會休息一陣子，然後帶著更大的熱情及能量，重新再回到這世上。
大自然裏是有一種完全的平衡，假如没有平衡，那麼我們可能都不會存在。假如這地球以稍快的速度移動，你可能就不存在了。假如太平洋只深個幾尺，你可能也不存在。所以很多事物都處在一種完全的平衡，如地球到太陽的距離、到月球的距離等等，都是處在一種平衡。假如這平衡被打破了，那麼我們可能都不在這裡了。
你必須了解所有這些都是由錫呂格涅沙來完成的，是祂來照顧所有的物質，及所有被創造的萬物。

This is a place where I say resides
Mahaganesha. So we have to understand how Shri Ganesh brings balance in us.
It’s very important to see that his swastika represents nothing else but
balance.
Balance when it is steady, when it
starts moving in the right direction, then constructive work starts and also it
works out all that is important for life. But when it starts the other way
round it works out the destructive part. These both are in balance, if they are
not life cannot go on.
The constructive and destructive both
have to be in balance. See in nature, if you see in the nature for example, a
flower has to come, and when the flower dies then the fruit comes out. The tree
has to evaporate its water to the sky if it does not then it won’t rain, it
won’t trigger the rain. But during winter season it has to drop out its leaves
because these leaves have to die and fall on to
the ground to nourish the mother nature with nitrogen. Then during summer time
again they come back.
So the life goes on like this, that
whatever is created is destroyed, something new comes up, again that new thing
also comes up in a way that it becomes constructive and then what ever it has
constructed, part of it is destroys. So actually if you see in the death resides
the life. If there is no death, imagine if all the people who were born since
long would have been living today, we would not have been here. It would have
been so difficult to manage ourselves with all these people.
But so many animals have died and those
animals also have become human beings. So many human beings have to die to get
other people to come on this earth and that you have to take some rest and come
back again. So the death is just a change of life. Without death life cannot
exist, it’s a balance between the two.
So a Sahaja Yogi should never be afraid
of death, he should never be afraid of death because if he is going to die it
is only going to be another life where he rests for a while and comes back with
greater enthusiasm, with greater energy. So there is a complete balance in
nature, if you see if there was no balance we could not have existed.
Supposing the earth was moving with a
greater speed, you would not have existed, the pacific ocean was deeper even by
certain feet, you would not have existed. So many things are completely in
balance, the distance with the sun, the distance with the moon, everything is
so much in balance, if this balance breaks then we would be nowhere.
So we have to understand that all this
is done by Shri Ganesha. He is the one who looks after all the material things
and all the things that are created.
