Cybertalk: A cyberspace devotee asks why she picks up negative conditions from other people. Gurudeva advices her to be around positive people who have good thoughts and are uplifting to avoid this. A cyber cadet from Perak, Malaysia wonders what is imagination. Gurudeva says imaginaton are images created in the mind and advises him to make positive images in his mind that are beneficial. A cyber devotee in California wants more clarification on Gurudeva's advice on giving the wife everything that she wants and everything that she needs. He asks what if she is abusive? Gurudeva says that it is the husband who has taken her into his life and therefore he must see to her needs and wants in order for them to have a happy life together and perhaps sometime in the past her needs were not met thus she is abusive now.

RealAudio: RealAudio uses "streaming
download" technology. The quality is good, not superior,
but you can listen to
Gurudeva right away while it downloads. Gurudeva's talks
are always provided in RealAudio format, sometimes in more
than one language. To listen to the RealAudio file, you
will need RealPlayer. Click on the icon to the right to download
RealPlayer.
If
you'
re not sure which version of the RealPlayer will work on your computer,
click here.
MPEG Layer 3 Audio:
Sometimes, Gurudeva's talks are also provided in MP3 format.
The MPEG Layer 3 Audio (MP3) format is a standard for high
quality audio on the Internet.
MP3's CD-quality sound is much
clearer than RealAudio and WAV, but the file is larger
and may or may not work well for you in
"streaming mode",
meaning that you may have intermittent pauses, or
may need to wait for the whole file to download
before listening. If listening to Gurudeva as if he is sitting right next
to you means anything, it's worth it.
This option works best for those
with fast Internet connections or those with lots of patience. To download
an MP3 player, click on your operating system:
Mac
or Windows.
(MP3 players for other platforms are
available at the same website.)
WAV:
Gurudeva's daily message is also usually
provided in the Windows WAV format. This
option is not streaming, is significantly lower quality and about
two-thirds the size of MP3. Most Mac and Windows computers have the ability
to play WAV sound files without the need to download additional software.
If you are experiencing problems with skipping or intermittent sound
with the RealAudio streaming download, shift
click here. The entire RealAudio file will be downloaded to your
computer, after which you can open and listen to it with the RealPlayer.
