 There was another hand, I just have to know who's hand was up. Was it yours? I think, yeah. Namaskaram. My question is about tapas. If you can say more about what is tapas and how can I build it inside myself? Because when you speak with Eliza, I think Eliza. It was the time we say the word tapas and suddenly I land. Sometimes I feel hard for me to stay in present like this. And when you say tapas, I feel okay. How can I build the tapas and what is tapas? So when there is in a seeker that deep yearning to know the truth, to touch the truth with your fingertips, to know the truth, that is what seekers actually are looking for. People sitting in a satsang like this are not sitting here because they want to know how to improve their skin. They just want to know the truth. Some of them are sitting for years in satsangs looking everywhere. Where is it? Where is it? Want to touch it? Want to feel it? Want to experience it? That yearning when it overtakes the system fuels the readiness for tapas. Tapas is what this system is ready to do to know the truth. Tapas Shakti is what this system builds up, the strength it builds up as it is undertaking what it is meant to undertake to know the truth. So let's say in this teaching, the practice is as much as possible to be really present. That's the tapas. That is the tapas. And the more present you are, the more tapas Shakti you have. We speak about jathar agni which is the fire held here. That fire is born out of the practice and the power that comes from practice. If you are really here in this moment, this is the practice here. Presentness, being in surrender, samarpan to the soul, the more you are in that state of surrender to the soul, the more tapas you are doing. The more tapas you are doing, the more tapas Shakti you have, meaning the power of tapas. And that tapas Shakti translates into the jathar agni which is the fire, the agni. The energy and the fire that is at your disposal for anything you want to do. It's a very powerful thing. The more you are in this practice, that's your tapas every day, every day, every day. If you have a guru, the outer guru reminds you of the inner guru. So you keep the guru in your thinking and you always know that that guru is the mirror of this one inside you. So you are in that communication. Then gradually this system starts to strengthen and you grow that strength and that force to actually live this life in thisness as it is meant to be lived. So your practice, your tapas is the practice you have learnt here if you want to take this up as your tapas. Yes, sometimes I'm just a beginner, yes. Maybe 10 days do this. And it's sometimes hard for sure. Sometimes it's really like, wow, it's here. And sometimes it's not like, where is it? Understand it's the beginning. Can I lose tapas? Because before today I have a sense to touch someone. You do something like some rake or something to some my friend. And then I do this there. I'm not sure if I ask myself, but it was like for me here, something. And do some rake for him and after I do this I feel less energy inside me. This is like I lose tapas. Tapas is the act of the practice. If you are taking up this practice in a serious way, then you're a tapasvi. You're taking up the practice. Doing it is the tapas. The tapas-shakti is both. It is the strength needed to do the tapas and it is the strength derived from the tapas. So you do tapas, you get tapas-shakti. You use that tapas-shakti to do more tapas. You understand? Then again you have tapas-shakti. Then you use that tapas-shakti, you are even more in the tapas, in the action, in the practice. You do more of the practice, you get more strength. And that's how you build that energy, that jatharagni, and you can lose it by touching somebody, yes. That is why many gurus won't let anybody touch them. You may have seen that in India. They'll say, no, you cannot touch, you cannot touch. Because as a guru you have to transmit to that many people the force, the shakti, so that they can take up a practice. If everybody touches you, then they please, unless that is your work to, let's say, to hug people or to, you know, bless people physically, some people do that, then it is different. So you have to hold the jatharagni. It's a physical thing. The energy is physical, it's material in nature. It's not a concept. It's material.
