00:00 The enlightened one is a yogi devoid of yoga and absence of yoga. A yogi
00:29 devoid of yoga and the absence of yoga. He is an enjoyer devoid of enjoyment and absence
00:48 of enjoyment. He is an enjoyer and there is no enjoyment, neither is there an absence
01:01 of enjoyment. Thus he wanders leisurely, filled with the spontaneous joy of his own mind.
01:30 The enlightened one is a yogi. Neither is yoga nor is an absence of yoga present in
01:44 him. He is simply yogasth. Why are these two absent? It's obvious. These two are absent
02:03 because there are no two. For yoga to happen, there must be two real entities getting united,
02:13 there is yoga but not the kind that proceeds from somewhere. There is yoga but not the
02:32 kind that is a summation of two entities. This yoga is better described as lop. There
02:55 appeared to be two. One became lopt. There was then the lop of one. Lop means disappearance.
03:12 So it is not really coming together of two. It is not really coming together of two because
03:18 the two are not at the same level because that which you are calling as a second one
03:23 really does not exist in the dimension of the first one. And in that sense, if the first
03:29 one is true, the second one can be called as false. Yoga is the disappearance of the
03:40 false, not a union of the false with the true. True yoga is merely lop. No union is needed.
03:53 Who will meet whom? Only truth is there. Who will come and meet the truth? Are you
04:04 getting me? So the word yoga is really a misnomer. It can even mislead. You go to Rishikesh and
04:21 there everybody is talking about the union of the, they talk of not two meeting but three.
04:26 What is that? Mind, body and soul. Not even two are there and they have dreamt up three
04:39 and are running successful businesses. If there can be a fourth one to unite, then the
04:49 business will prosper even more because now the task is bigger. You see, he unites only
04:58 three, the neighboring shop. I unite four. So, my charges are 30 percent higher. There
05:11 are no two. How can there be three? So Sandeep is asking, is there only one? There is not
05:20 even one Sandeep. No three, no two and not even one. Now what yoga are you dreaming of?
05:38 The dream has to go into velop, two, three, four, five, six. All will then go down the
05:54 Ganga. Are you getting it? Dattatreya is compassionate enough to not to give you anything that you
06:12 hold because whatever you hold becomes you. If you are able to hold something, if your
06:18 hands are clutching something, then that which you clutch becomes your hand. So, he is saying
06:28 only the yogi is there. Only the one yogastha entity is there. He is calling that entity
06:36 as the yogi. There is neither yog. Why is there no yog? Because there are no two and
06:47 nor is there an absence of yog. Why is there no absence of yog? Because when you look at
06:54 the world around, you see that for most people there indeed are two. So, for this one, this
07:04 walking man that you are calling as yogi, surely the second one has gone. Surely yog
07:15 has happened. But such yog is not happening. I repeat such yog is merely loathe. Yog has
07:25 not happened. The truth has not arrived. That which was not truth, that which was anyway
07:34 not at all has lost its grip upon you. Are you getting it? Then he plays with Parameswari
07:57 a little more. Dattatreya has taken a liking for you. He says there is, what does he say?
08:12 There is the enjoyer or enjoyment, what is it? There is the enjoyer and neither is there
08:29 enjoyment nor an absence of enjoyment. He does not want you to be left with anything.
08:42 There is merely a self-sufficient enjoyment. The one having the self-sufficient enjoyment
08:52 is called the enjoyer. And then he is saying that there is neither
09:14 nor an absence of enjoyment. Why not an absence of enjoyment? For the same reason as the one
09:27 we quoted when we said that yog exists. Why does yog exist? Because the yogi is there.
09:38 So when the enjoyer is there, enjoyment is there. But this is not the enjoyment of that
09:43 kind that you witness in the world. In the world, the enjoyment is never self-sufficient.
09:53 The enjoyment always requires an external object. Here enjoyment is there. But the enjoyment
10:04 is contained in the enjoyer. The enjoyment is not for a reason. The enjoyment is not
10:13 due to something or somebody. The enjoyment does not begin and end. The enjoyment is one
10:20 with the enjoyer. You just are joy. Just joy. Just joy. Call it justness or call it joy.
10:39 Call it being or call it joy. Call it me or call it joy. Call it self or call it joy.
10:45 Call it truth or call it joy. No two. Not joy because of something. Not joy in something.
10:59 Just joy. Self-contained. Non-dual. Are you getting it? You cannot have images of such
11:15 a joy. You can have such a joy. You cannot have such a joy. Only such a joy can have
11:23 itself. This is Dattatreya's speech. If you are having joy, there still are two. What
11:46 is happening? It is joy having joy. Call it me or call it joy.
