<div>Ayurveda is a natural healing system which originated out of India over 5000 years ago. It is the system for maintaining optimal health through adherence to natural rhythms and cycles - A healing gift that has been given to us from the ancient enlightened Vedic culture. <br />
<br />
Ayurveda employs a variety of natural means to bring harmony to the physiology including diet, herbs, spices, minerals, exercise, meditation, [[yoga]], mental hygiene, sounds and smells. <br />
<br />
==Etymology==<br />
Ayurveda is translated as ‘ayur‘ (life) and ‘veda‘ (knowledge of or science). It is commonly known as the ‘Science of Life’. <br />
<br />
==Three Constitutions==<br />
The Rig Veda is the oldest of the four Vedic scriptures and contains the main concepts regarding Ayurveda. It speaks about three cosmic powers associated with Wind, Fire and Earth and how these primal forces relate to the three psycho-physiologic constitutions of man known as Vata,Pitta and Kapha.<br />
<br />
From the five elements, the three doshas are derived—Vata,Pitta, and Kapha. Known as mind-body types, the doshas express particular patterns of energy—unique blends of physical, emotional, and mental characteristics.<br />
<br />
In Ayurveda, health is defined as the dynamic state of balance between mind, body, and environment. It is possible for each of us to achieve and maintain a vibrant and joyful state of health by identifying our mind-body type and then creating a lifestyle that sustains and nurtures our unique nature.<br />
<br />
==Vedic Science of Detox of Body and Mind==<br />
<br />
Our dietary habits, lifestyle and thinking have a collective effect on our overall health. These 3 are considered as the three pillars of health – AhAra (diet), vihAra (lifestyle) and vichAra (thoughts). Any form of disturbance in these three can lead to a disturbance in the equilibrium of the three doshas (vAta, pitta and kapha), which can be loosely translated to the 3 biological energies of the body.<br />
<br />
By and by, there is accumulation of vitiated doshas (acting here as toxins) in the tissues of the body. The blood chemistry gets disturbed, leading to various lifestyle disorders like diabetes, hyper and hypo thyroidism, and skin disorders– to name a few. Virechana Therapy or medicated purgation therapy helps remove the vitiated doshas (especially vitiated pitta, since it has an intimate relation with blood tissue) from the body. When these toxins are removed from the body as per the methods given in the original scriptures of Ayurveda, the detoxification is permanent.<br />
<br />
<br />
dOShANam cha druvANam cha mUlena upahate sati |<br />
rOgANAm prasavAnAm cha gatAnAm Agatihi dhruva ||<br />
– Charaka Samhita, Sutra Sthana. 16<br />
<br />
Translation:<br />
“Like how when the trees are uprooted from their roots, they won’t grow back, similarly the vitiated doshas (toxins) when removed from their roots through the detoxification procedure will not reappear.”<br />
<br />
===Agnis in Human Body===<br />
<br />
As per Ayurveda, the human body has thirteen “Agnis”. “Agni” is the term for the whole process of biological conversion and utilization of energy. Malfunctioning of Agni leads to production of Ama (undigested material that remains in tract and acts as antigens/toxins and are responsible for production of various diseases & autoimmune diseases). Production of Ama may occur at the level of Jataragni (improper digestion in digestive tract), Bhutagni (liver dysfunction) or Dhatwagni (disturbed tissue metabolism). Ama is said to be the root cause of all diseases and can be indicated by lethargy, a coated tongue and foul breath. These undigested substances can be recognizable to us as:<br />
<br />
* High cholesterol<br />
* Chronic fatigue syndrome<br />
* Candida<br />
* Diabetes<br />
* Constipation<br />
* Obesity<br />
* [[Depression]]<br />
* Stress and anxiety<br />
<br />
''“Almost each one of you carry at least 5 pounds of poison in your body, because of the toxification by constantly watching tv and powerful lights, pesticides in your food and so many other reasons. This Nithya Yoga Retreat is specifically focused on detoxification through a sattvic diet, Nithya Yoga and Kriya and cleansing methods. You will be detoxing your body and mind. Whoever wants to have their body detoxified, here is an amazing opportunity.” – HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam''<br />
<br />
<br />
==Sattvic Eating==<br />
===Best time to eat===<br />
Ayurveda says that in our manipura region (navel region), we have what is known as digestive fire (jataraagni). This jataraagni is closely related to the sun. When the sun is out, it means your digestion is functioning at its optimum. Always aim to eat your meals between sunrise and sunset (not before or after).<br />
<br />
Eat light, sattvic and pure foods for breakfast – fresh squeezed juice, fresh fruit etc.<br />
Our jataraagni is at is strongest when the sun is at its highest in the sky (at approximately 1pm). It is best to eat our largest meal between 12pm and 2pm.<br />
The evening meal should again be light and best eaten before the sun goes down for the day.<br />
<br />
===Presentation===<br />
Devote at least half an hour to eat and digest each meal (1.5 hours per day for eating is not much).<br />
<br />
Remember that one fourth of your food is taken through the eye (sense of seeing) so serve your dish on a beautiful plate – you are worth your best cutlery! It is also a nice practice to set the table you are eating at decoratively.<br />
<br />
===Gratitude===<br />
Say a small prayer before eating your food. It doesn’t have to be too elaborate, simply just say a small thank you for the food that you have and that is about to become part of your body.<br />
<br />
===Fragrance of the Food===<br />
Bring your face toward the food and inhale the fragrance of the food. Enjoy the different aromas of the food. Allow this sense to be filled.<br />
<br />
===Touch the Food===<br />
Touch the food with both hands and all fingers, feel the textures.<br />
All five fingers have minor chakras. Therefore, when we touch the food, we send a signal to our digestive system that you are about to ingest food.<br />
<br />
===Eating the Food===<br />
Let the first morsel be a sacred act to yourself.<br />
<br />
Chew the food 32 times – or until food is pulp in the mouth. We do this for two reasons. The first is, when you chew the food slowly, your system has time to understand that enough food has been eaten. You won’t overeat when you chew the food slowly. The second reason is, when you chew the food well, the digestive process begins in the mouth itself where the enzymes in the saliva can start to break down the food. When the food reaches your stomach, it does not have to work so hard to breakdown all the food. Breaking down food in the stomach takes more energy than running around your street block. That is why we feel very tired after eating food.<br />
<br />
Have positivity when you are eating and digesting your food<br />
<br />
===Leave Some Room===<br />
You should only fill three quarters of your stomach.<br />
Leave the final quarter for some water and air.<br />
Small sips of warm water can be taken during meal. Never drink cold drinks during a meal as they can weaken your digestive fire.<br />
Leave a complete half an hour after your meal, than you can drink a full glass of warm water if it is required.<br />
One can sip water throughout the day. It greases the system and breaks down what is known as ama which is residue of your digestion.<br />
<br />
Sit in vajrasana to help digestion. Sit in the vajrasana position (sitting on your heels, knees and feet together) for 3 – 5 minutes after a meal. This position can help the food to digest as a lot of blood will be brought to that area. It helps to remove gas and prevent bloating. If you get the urge to belch or pass wind, that is what the posture is designed to do, so try not to suppress these urges. The posture will help you to feel light and energized after the meal.<br />
<br />
Never lay down or sleep after a meal. If you want to gain weight, than this is a 100% guaranteed way to put on weight; sleeping after food<br />

<div>''"Avatar is the Vyakta, manifest component of the unmanifest form, Avyakta. <br />
Avatar is the statement of God, God is the state of Avatar." - HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
<br />
==Etymology==<br />
The word Avatar (from the Sanskrit word ‘avatarati’) means ‘one who has descended’. In this case, the word specifically refers to the one who has descended from the very fabric of the Cosmos, the universal Consciousness. The descent of Consciousness into the material embodied form with the apparent attributes of a human being is the actual descent that happens. This is a conscious descent, as it happens from the pure intelligence, compassion and energy of the universal Consciousness, which pervades all the dimensions of space- time.<br />
<br />
The English word ‘incarnation’ (lit. ‘one who has entered flesh’), which means one who has accepted a material body, is sometimes used as a translation for the word Avatar. However, this word does not convey the full meaning of the sacred word ‘Avatar’.<br />
<br />
==Scriptural References == <br />
Srimad Bhagavatam, the great Vedic scripture that precisely records and reveals the happening of various Avatars of the past, present and future, describes the Avatar in Its complete form. The description is in the words of the Avatar Sri [[Krishna]] - for who but the Avatar himself can fully grasp his own glory? <br />
<br />
idaṁ śarīraṁ mama durvibhāvyaṁ | sattvaṁ hi me hṛdayaṁ yatra dharmaḥ || pṛṣṭhe kṛto me yad adharma ārād | <br />
ato hi mām ṛṣabhaṁ prāhur āryāḥ ||<br />
- Śrimad Bhāgavatam, 5.5.19<br />
<br />
My transcendental cosmic body (sac-cid-ananda- vigraha) looks exactly like a human form, but it is established on existential Reality; it is not a material human body. It is indeed inconceivable and non-cognizable. I am not forced by Nature to accept a particular type of body; I assume a body by My own will. Within My heart is found dharma, the cosmic truth and righteousness.<br />
<br />
Far beyond My heart, I have abandoned irreligion (adharma). Therefore, due to all these cosmic qualities, people pray and connect with Me as Rsabhadeva, the Supreme Personi cation, and Aryah, the best of all living entities.<br />
<br />
Brahma Sutras, the authority on Vedanta, reveal that the Avatar does everything ‘appearing like a wordly man, simply as a Divine play, a Cosmic sport:<br />
lokavattu līlākaivalyaṁ (Brahma Sutras, 2.1.33) <br />
<br />
==Vedic Civilization – Incubator of Avatars== <br />
In an era lost in timelessness, in the lush plains of the Sarasvati river in India, thrived a legendary civilization that conquered the boundaries of space and time with the power of knowledge. At a time when the human race elsewhere on the planet was still dwelling in caves, this civilization had already evolved a precise cosmology whose tenets modern science is only just beginning to comprehend.<br />
<br />
This Vedic civilization, the world’s oldest living civilization, still flourishes in the Indian sub-continent. It gave to the world the sciences of Vedic mathematics, astronomy, navigation, medicine, [[yoga]] and above all, the sacred science of the Self. It is also the only civilization to have produced a living lineage of Avatars and enlightened beings that continues to grace our planet till today.<br />
<br />
His Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda is revered by millions worldwide as the living Avatar of superconsciousness of our time, who lives and moves among us today. He is heir to the 5000-year- old lineage of enlightened yogic masters who live on the sacred mountain of Arunachala in southern India, which is revealed in the scriptures as a spiritual incubator, where Avatars can assume a human form and descend to our frequency from the pure space of Consciousness. <br />
<br />
==Types of Avatar==<br />
[[Karana]] means cause. Karya means effect. Karya Brahman, also known as hiranyagarbha, is the creative aspect of the Divine. Avatars descend from karya brahman. Devi Bhagavata Purana, the historical Vedic text which reveals the nature of Devi or Shakti, the creative energy of the Cosmos, states that there cannot be any descent of an Avatar directly from karana brahman, since it is a eld of potentiality.<br />
<br />
Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, the Trimurtis, belong to the karya brahman. Brahma is the creative aspect, Vishnu is the preservative aspect and Shiva is the rejuvenating aspect of the universe. <br />
Based on the dimensions (known as ‘rays’) which they possess, Avatars are classified as:<br />
<br />
===Purna Avatar=== <br />
16 dimensions e.g. Sri Krishna<br />
===Lila Avatar=== <br />
14 dimensions e.g. [[Sri Rama]]<br />
===Amsa Avatar=== <br />
12 dimensions e.g. Adi Shankaracharya<br />
<br />
Garga Samhita, the sacred Vedic text that extols the glory of Avatars, describes the Avatars in Canto 1, text 16-27. The great sage Narada explains that the Lord descends in six forms:<br />
<br />
amśamśo’mśas tathāveśaḥ kalā purnaḥ prakathyate | <br />
vyāsadyaish ca smṛitaḥ śaṣṭhah paripūrnātmah svayam || 16 || <br />
Amshamsha (a part of a part)<br />
Amsha (a part)<br />
Avesha (entrance into a jiva)<br />
Kala (a full part)<br />
Purna (full or complete)<br />
Paripurnatama (absolutely complete) <br />
<br />
The amshamsha incarnations begin with Marichi, the amsha incarnations begin with Brahma, the avesha incarnations begin with Parashurama and the kala incarnations begin with Kapila and Kurma.<br />
<br />
pūrno nṛsimho ramaś ca śvetadvīpadhipo hariḥ |<br />
vaikunṭho’pi tathā yajno nara-narāyanaḥ smṛitaḥ || 18 ||<br />
<br />
The Smrti-shastra explains that the purna incarnations are: <br />
Nrsimha<br />
Rama<br />
Lord Hari, the ruler of Shvetadvipa<br />
Vaikuntha<br />
Yajna<br />
Nara-Narayana <br />
<br />
The paripurnatama or absolutely complete form of the Lord is Sri Krishna, who is the original Supreme Divinity Himself. As the master of countless universes, He is splendidly manifest in His imperishable and blissful abode. The amsha incarnations are said to oversee the execution of the Lord’s mission (in the world). The amshamsha incarnations are understood to perform the work of executing those missions.<br />
<br />
In the various avesha incarnations, the Divine enters a jiva, an individual body, executes His mission, and then departs. His kala incarnations teach and establish the principles of religion and then disappear. <br />
<br />
==Why Avatar?==<br />
When positive consciousness declines, when collective negativity increases, O Bharata, at these times, I Myself happen in every age. To protect the pious and to annihilate the wicked, to re-establish righteousness, I Myself appear, age after age. <br />
~ Bhagavan Sri Krishna in Bhagavad Gita, 4.7-8<br />
<br />
Sometimes, when the created world has to be sustained, I Myself assume name and form and initiate manvantaras (great eras of time) and provide the earth with appropriate divine personalities and sages, who set examples to be followed and indicate the path of progress.<br />
<br />
I end also the unlimited increase of beings, whenever it happens. For this sake, I take the form of Rudra (the destructive and rejuvenative aspect of God). I create the bad, in order to highlight and promote the good; and in order to protect the good, I set certain limits, both to the good and the bad, for they would otherwise stray into wrong ways and in ict great harm.<br />
<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda says:<br />
''Once one is established in in nite Consciousness, one becomes silent, and though knowing everything, goes about as if he does not know anything. Though he might be doing a lot of things in several places to all outward appearances, such a one will remain as if he does nothing. ''<br />
<br />
==Signs (or Science) of Recognizing the Avatar==<br />
It is important to understand at the very outset that the multiple dimensions of an Avatar (including His attributes and powers) fall into three broad categories:<br />
<br />
1.KNOWN (which can be intellectually understood, recorded or quantified in some way) 2.KNOWABLE (which cannot be recorded, but whose existence can be deduced by their effects)<br />
3.UNKNOWABLE (which can be neither recorded nor deduced, but can only be grasped experientially by an observer in the same space)<br />
<br />
The existence of these three categories has necessitated the bringing together of three kinds of recordings in this volume, with some natural overlap in their purposes:<br />
<br />
1. Modern scientific research reports – which accurately record, analyze and present the Known dimensions of the Avatar <br />
2. Sharing by devotees – who describe the effects experienced in the presence of the Avatar, supporting the scientific research and providing powerful evidence of the Knowable dimensions 3. Revelations from the Avatar Himself – which offer a glimpse of the Unknowable dimensions, as no other observer exists in our time with an experiential understanding of this state. These words, however, are powerfully supported by the sacred texts and scriptures, which are the revelations of the Avatars down the ages. Hence the many scriptural references included in this volume.<br />
<br />
The uniqueness of His Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda is that He has consistently allowed His known dimensions to be measured and analyzed by modern science to the extent possible, for the purpose of taking science to the next level and for the bene t of humanity.<br />
<br />
He is also the only known Avatar in history to frequently reveal the ultimate Truth in the language of modern science, effortlessly bridging the chasm between science and spirituality. In a later chapter of this book, Paramahamsa Nithyananda will personally explain the ‘mystic science’ (if we may call it that) behind this process. <br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Authenticity&diff=12641Authenticity2019-04-02T21:16:24Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>Authenticity is you being established in the peak of your energy, the peak of your capability, and responding to life from who you perceive yourself to be for you. And who you project yourself to be for others, and what others expect you to be for them. <br />
<br />
Authenticity is tuning yourself to the highest of what you perceive yourself to be for yourself, and who you project yourself to be for others, and, what others expect you to be for them. With Authenticity - Nothing can stop you - No one can stop you!<br />
<br />
==Etymylogy==<br />
<br />
==Scriptural References==<br />
<br />
==Aligning to Your Highest Identity is Authenticity==<br />
You don’t have just one identity, as you imagine. You have four identities! At all times, you carry four identities together.<br />
<br />
===The first of these four identities is Mamakara or Inner Image===<br />
<br />
It is the inner image and experience you carry about yourself : I am healthy – I am ugly – I am not intelligent – I cannot tolerate hard work. I love people, etc. You carry many such inner ideas about yourself. Unfortunately, the idea you carry about you is always less than what you project yourself to be for others! <br />
<br />
===The second identity is Ahamkara or Outer Image===<br />
It is how you project yourself to others. You may try to project yourself as powerful, talented, honest, helpful or whatever. Unfortunately, what you project is always far more than what you believe yourself to be.<br />
<br />
=== Third Identity is Other's Image of You===<br />
Apart from these two, there is a third identity you carry, which is the image or expectations that others have about you. This is called Anyakara or Others’ Image about you. <br />
<br />
How others perceive you may be different from how you project yourself to them, because people create their opinion about you from the subtle signals you give them, rather than what you openly project. Human beings are intelligent enough to catch even what you don’t say – or especially what you don’t say!<br />
<br />
===The Fourth Identity is the Life Image===<br />
The fourth identity is very subtle, because it is not directly related to you. It is called Sva-Anyakara or Life Image. <br />
Life Image is what you experience life to be for you. For example, you may feel -Life is lonely, or Life is complicated, or Life is sacred, or Life is scary, or Life is always showering me with everything I need. This is also your identity, because it defines the exact experience you will be receiving from the people and situations in your life!<br />
<br />
Authenticity means living at your peak in each of these dimensions.<br />
<br />
==Honesty is not Authenticity!==<br />
<br />
Honesty is only the first step to Authenticity. Honesty is a socially good quality while Authenticity is a spiritual quality. <br />
<br />
Authenticity means – living the spiritual truths authentically. <br />
<br />
If you are angry with somebody, if you express it directly to that person, “I am angry with you,” It is honesty. In Authenticity, the two beings understand each other, where even the anger does not happen.<br />
<br />
Another example: Husband telling the truth to his wife that he is a womanizer is honesty, but not Authenticity. Husband living just as a husband is Authenticity. If each person is completely living his or her role, it is Authentic. <br />
<br />
I am giving a new definition of “Authenticity”: “What you like in your private Facebook page, where you changed your name and you kept a secret profile, in that private Facebook page what you like, in that private profile what you like, liking the same in real life also” is “Authenticity”. This is the definition of “Authenticity” for the modern-day [[youth]]. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
Authenticity means living the truth, without compromise, suffering or bending, with courage and non-violence.<br />
<br />
Honesty will always be demanding; I am honest, you be honest. <br />
Authenticity will be always flowing. I am flowing, I don’t bother about you. <br />
<br />
Authenticity fills you and others. Honesty burns others and you. Many times honesty is a poor substitute for Authenticity and the very idea of honesty is built on your ego. But Authenticity is built on the cosmic understanding. Authenticity is, living the truths from yourself. Honesty is, living the versions of the truths given to you by society. <br />
<br />
==Cosmic Account Balance==<br />
The attitude everything is a gift to you is keeping the balance sheet authentic with the cosmos. Gratitude is such a powerful ingredient. The moment you add that, honesty become Authenticity.<br />
<br />
I always tell people: if you are honest you will have your feet at my place, you will have a place at my feet. But when you are authentic you will have a place in my heart, your heart will have place in me. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
==Authenticity IS Listening==<br />
<br />
When there is no [[listening]], communication is not possible.<br />
When there is no Authenticity, communion is not possible. <br />
<br />
All initiations are communion between my inner space and your inner space. When communion happens I also feel fulfilled. When your [[Kundalini]] is awakened, I am fulfilled because in cosmic space all initiations work on you only when there is authenticity. People ask me why sometimes some healing by you works miracles, some healing doesn’t become miracles.<br />
<br />
The whole thing boils down to authenticity. Understand, I pronounce these words with Mahakala’s Authenticity, the heart I carry, the will which makes decisions in me, and the energy, power, Shakti, which is functioning in me cannot escape from Authenticity. When it sees Authenticity, it cannot say no. When I see Authenticity, I cannot say no to what you are asking, whatever you ask. The best way to overpower me is Authenticity. <br />
- Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
==The Right Way to Unclutch==<br />
Do an acid wash of all your actions with Authenticity. Wash your whole life with the acid of Authenticity. I tell you, it will not even be acid, it will be sandalwood paste. <br />
<br />
I wanted all the decision makers in our [[sangha]] also to wash the whole organization with this Authenticity. Let everything be practiced, preached, enforced, interested with Authenticity. <br />
<br />
I tell you, with Authenticity when you stretch the body in the morning, your whole body will become a yogic body. When you sit for the guru pooja with Authenticity, your whole being will melt down. When you sit with [[Integrity]] and Authenticity only then [[Unclutching]] is possible. Otherwise, you will be misusing the Unclutching in wrong places. To hide yourself in your own inauthenticity, you will be using Unclutching.<br />
- Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
==Tune Your Thinking To Your Peak Possibility==<br />
Authenticity is the key that unlocks the Power of Thinking. Constantly functioning at your peak possibility is Authenticity. When you unlock the power of thinking, you will be able to spontaneously focus your thoughts to achieve your highest potential.<br />
<br />
==Authenticity Empowers You==<br />
Authenticity is the remedy for feelings of powerlessness. Any [[fear]], any [[depression]] stems from some form of inward inauthenticity. When one's inner space is completely authentic, the power to lead and inspire others spontaneously blossoms and the individual radiates natural leadership. <br />
<br />
A leader is one whose Kundalini is the most awakened among the members of a group. Quite naturally all will turn to that person and follow his direction. This ability to galvanize and motivate our surroundings clears the path to [[Enlightenment]].<br />
<br />
==Nachiketa, the Fire of Authenticity!==<br />
The Kathopanishad graphically describes the power of Authenticity and how it can impact life. <br />
<br />
[[Nachiketa]], the wonder child, is the hero personifying the power of Authenticity. Nachiketa, with an innocent curiosity, took part in all the activities performed by his father, King Vajasravas. <br />
<br />
His father was performing a sacrifice to please the gods, in which the person has to give away all his [[wealth]]. Nachiketa saw that the king started donating old cows that had given milk and yielded many calves for years. They were of no more use, but were considered as the objects of donation by the king.<br />
<br />
Though a child, Nachiketa could understand that his father was behaving inauthentically. He decided to take [[responsibility]] for his father’s inauthenticity. Since the king was supposed to be giving away the best things in his life, Nachiketa asked him where he would be giving him. The king’s ego was unable to handle his own inauthenticity being exposed, and in a fit of anger, he declared that he would be giving Nachiketa unto death. <br />
<br />
Yet, the boy was unperturbed. He was weighing his own significance in his father’s life, but not out of conceit. He was weighing his merit as a son and a pupil. Would he be a worthy gift to Yama, the Lord of Death? What would his going to Yama accomplish for his father?<br />
Although he realized that his father’s harsh reply was only the expression of a momentary outburst of anger, he believed that a greater harm might befall his father if his word was not kept. Therefore, he sought to strengthen his father’s resolution by reminding him of the transitory condition of life. <br />
<br />
Nachiketa said, “Look back to those who have lived before you and look to those who live now. Look at grain; the mortal remains perish and new grain springs up. All things perish, truth alone remains. Why then, do you fear to sacrifice me?” Thus, Nachiketa convinced his father that he should remain true to his word and send him to Yama, the Lord of Death. Nachiketa proceeded to the abode of Yama, but when he reached there he found that Yama was absent. The boy waited without food or drink for three days. Just by his Authentic declaration, Nachiketa broke the very [[pattern]] of eating, and even breathing. Just telling his body alone would not have been sufficient to accomplish this. It was the authenticity of his declaration which made it possible.<br />
<br />
When Yama returned three days later, his assistant told him that a Brahmana had walked into their home with intensity like that of fire and if he was not offered something, it would harm them all greatly. This statement comes from the ancient Vedic ideal that a guest is the representative of God and should be received with due reverence and honor. On hearing this, Yama proceeded to greet Nachiketa. Because Nachiketa waited for three days without food at his doorstep, the lord of death showered him with three boons.<br />
<br />
The first boon that Nachiketa asked for is that his father should be free of all anxieties and anger, and that he should welcome Nachiketa home with joy. This shows how Nachiketa was not giving up on his father, even though he sent him to death. His Authenticity made him take up the responsibility to make his father also authentic. Yama agreed to grant this, healing Vajasravas’s anger, so much so that he could have a dreamless sleep. Only when one is completely free from inner conflicts, can one have a dreamless sleep.<br />
<br />
For his second boon, Nachiketa asked, “Thou knowest, oh Death, the fire sacrifice that leads to heaven. Tell this to me, I am full of shraddha (authenticity). This I beg as my second boon.”<br />
<br />
To this, Yama replied, “I know well the fire that leads to heaven. Listen to me, oh Nachiketa! This is the means of attaining endless worlds and their support it is hidden in the heart of all beings.”<br />
<br />
By this, Yama was telling Nachiketa that there is a part of everyone that is non-perishable. He told him to become that part, and time will no longer have an effect on him. Time only has an effect on the gross parts of a person. So, the more subtle a person is, the lesser time affects them. Yama revealing this to Nachiketa is as good as a policeman teaching someone how to escape the law. Thus, Yama explained the process of the fire sacrifice that Nachiketa asked for. He said that this fire is the beginning of all worlds. Until Nachiketa understood the beginning, he would not understand the end, nor could he live an endless life. The fire altered a being to their next frequency of consciousness, through the mantras (chants) and offerings. Being pleased with his ability to learn well, Yama declared that the first fire sacrifice shall be named after Nachiketa.<br />
<br />
Yama continued, “He who performs this Nachiketa fire sacrifice three times, being united with the three, that is mother, father and teacher, and who fulfills the threefold duty to study the Vedas, sacrifice and give alms, will cross over birth and death. Knowing this worshipful, shining fire, which is born of Brahman, the supreme soul, he attains eternal peace.” With this, Nachiketa’s boon was granted.<br />
<br />
For his final boon, Nachiketa was intent on knowing the inner secret of life after death. Through this knowledge, he would help the world.<br />
This was also granted, which Death as a Guru bestowed on him after testing his worth. Nachiketa with his shraddha became the enlightened ruler of humanity, leading the people on a path of aligning with the higher truths. He became a hero because of his powerful authenticity and quality of extreme sacrifice.<br />
<br />
==Akashic Readings on Authenticity==<br />
<br />
Q. Dear [[Kalabhairava]], can you enlighten us on what is Authenticity from the cosmic perspective?<br />
<br />
Kalabhairava: The mind which takes over as an agent to live through your body and mind and consciousness, the mind which comes inside as a security guard or posing himself as an efficient servant, slowly puts you in unconsciousness and takes over charge of your life. The mind which takes charge of your life, constantly gives you the experiences to make you believe it is required to be part of your life if your life has to go smooth. <br />
<br />
“Authenticity” is understanding that mind is not needed as in-charge of your life for your life to run smoothly.<br />
<br />
“Authenticity” is understanding that mind needs to serve only its purpose for which it came into existence. If it has entered your house saying it will be protecting you, let him do only security job. If it enters inside your life saying it will make you more efficient, let him do only that job.<br />
<br />
Allowing the mind to do its allocated job for which he came inside, not letting him to take charge of your whole life is “Authenticity”.<br />
<br />
The inner identity which you carry does not exist when you have or when you realize you don’t have. The outer identity you have exists as long as others think you have. The Anyakaara of others towards you exists as long as others have their inner identity. And aligning your life within all these three with the clarity and the truth and responsibility for all these three is “Authenticity”.<br />
<br />
Authenticity lives and leads your life to pure consciousness. The more and more you become authentic, the more and more your presence becomes intense. An authentic being does not need to use the word to enrich others, influence others. His presence is so powerful, that itself enriches everyone.<br />
With atma vikasa, life becomes new, [[enriching]] yourself and others becomes part of your very existence. Expanding the feeling cognition of what all you feel as you, what you feel as you, is “Responsibility”.<br />

<div>Asura means Demon. <br />
<br />
==Exploring the Dimension of God & Demon==<br />
<br />
Wherever logic is used for possibility, it is called [[Sura]]. <br />
Wherever logic is used for impossibility, it is called Asura. <br />
<br />
‘Because of this, this is not possible’ is Asura, means cutting, denying.<br />
‘Because this is possible, this is also possible’ - is Sura, awakening, raising, God. <br />
<br />
Who is God? Who is demon? <br />
<br />
Sura means ‘because of this, is this also possible’ - is called God. <br />
‘Because of this, this is not possible’ is called Asura - demon. <br />
<br />
Puranas define<br />
‘Because I can see this, I can’t see that’ is Asura. <br />
‘Because I can see this, I can see that’ is Sura. <br />
<br />
Suras always manifest powers - Asuras always lose into powerlessness.<br />

<div>''Aasana is roughly translated as Posture. I want to translate it as ‘Tuning yourself to the Cosmos’'' - HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam<br />
<br />
In the [[yoga]] world nowadays, the word asana generally means body postures: holding a specific pose while bending the body. Asanas may be popular practice for a number of reasons, including their great physical and mental benefits, and of course for aesthetics. On one level, it is, but asanas have a much deeper meaning and purpose.<br />
<br />
==Scriptural References==<br />
<br />
In the Yoga Sutras, Patanjali states:<br />
<br />
“sthira-sukham asanam” -Chapter II, v. 46<br />
<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda translates:<br />
<br />
''“Asanas are steady and comfortable body postures to tune oneself with the Cosmos.”''<br />
<br />
==Introduction==<br />
<br />
If you look deeply, any body posture is associated with a state of being, with a particular state of consciousness. There are 1000s of ways to tune yourself to the cosmos. For every act you have a particular posture. Posture, your consciousness, action - all 3 are connected closely. <br />
<br />
For example, can you sleep standing up? And how about lying down in a relaxed way and try to shout angrily at someone. You can’t! By lying down you cant shout at some one and by standing up you cant sleep.<br />
<br />
The body language changes according to your moods and attitudes. Subtle changes in your body posture will cause a major change in the way you feel.<br />
<br />
Each posture creates a particular consciousness in you and helps you with the action. The posture for the ultimate consciousness is the Maha Mudra. <br />
<br />
For this, you need to evolve your body step by step. Change in body posture brings change in your consciousness. There is a particular body posture for you to reach towards the ultimate. You need to find that.<br />
<br />
One of the biggest crimes of the Vedantic Tradition is the disrespect towards Asanas. Many have started disrespecting the body, as though the body is a villain. The body is the victim of you. You go on abusing the body. Continuously for your enjoyment, you take the body to the extreme.<br />
<br />
Whether it is eating, seeing - you watch TV till late night. Your eyes will be crying. Your body is the victim. Your tongue will be a victim of your pleasure. You abuse your tongue. In every level, your body is the victim. You disrespect and neglect your body. Even great Vedantis who study these ideas never experience anything. For experience, your body needs to evolve to a certain posture.<br />
<br />
Your body is the mirror. The light coming to the mirror is the cosmic light. You need to align the mirror to a certain posture where the cosmic light reflects itself without distortion or deflection. That tuning is Asana.<br />
<br />
Either you align or malign your body. Align means tuning to experience the transcendental super consciousness. Other than aligning, everything else is maligning.<br />
<br />
There are two things you can do<br />
*1) Trial and error-checking if this system works for me and choosing the right ones.<br />
*2) Once you find that a routine works for you, increase your capacity to do it<br />
<br />
Stiram means any posture imbibed by you should become your bio-memory. any posture that you do now and after 5 months you cant do it is not bio memory in you. Sthiram cant be shaken.<br />
<br />
Sukam-All of you come down with a certain bio memory. Having the sweet [[pain]] of the asana, the whole day by increasing the practice in you. Once you find the set and increase the practice, increase the capacity to do and be in those postures and experience the sweet pain the whole day.<br />
<br />
Sukam does not mean luxury. When the right posture is done, nectar oozes out from every joint. Nectar is available in every joint. The proper mudra makes it ooze out. The set of postures, practicing them more and more and increasing the capacity of your body and increasing the sweet nectar is sukha.<br />
<br />
For Aasana-Respecting your body, raising your body to the highest possible spiritual conscious coherence. Through trial and error or a Guru’s prescription, find the right set of postures for you. Increase the ability to practice, by doing the aasanas again and again, experience the sweet nectar like pain the whole day.<br />
<br />
Understand the concept and truth which Patanjali is expressing. The sweet pain which comes in your system by practicing is what Patanjali calls Sukha.. When your body is aligned, it Levitates; when you malign your body, it gravitates.<br />
<br />
A small exercise:<br />
<br />
Sit straight with eyes closed and the hands in front of you, palms facing up. Just notice how your body feels. Notice the breath.<br />
<br />
Slowly turn the palms down. Bring awareness to how you feel now.<br />
<br />
Can you feel a subtle difference? This subtle difference is due to the change of body posture.<br />
<br />
==Sthiram-Sukham Asanam==<br />
<br />
So, asanas are specific body postures designed in a way so as to reflect the highest possible coherence with the Cosmos. The perfect asana for you depends on you. You will see, in some asanas you will suddenly feel natural, steady (sthira) and comfortable (sukham).<br />
<br />
Actually, in a deeper way, sthira does not only mean steady, it means, “which cannot be lost, which has become part of your bio-memory”. It should be natural to be in that posture. If after a few weeks without practice you suddenly realize you cannot perform the posture anymore, then the true quality of sthira has not been achieved.<br />
<br />
Sukham, which is commonly translated as comfortable, is not about cushion luxury! You should be able to be in a posture and feel its effect in your body throughout the day. Every joint should be oozing with nectar, like a sweet feeling of lightness. You can achieve sukham by constant practice, and increasing your ability to stay in that asana.<br />
<br />
==Respect Your Body==<br />
<br />
But understand, the practice of asanas does not mean abusing or disrespecting your body. Our bodies are victims of our self-destructive lifestyle. We often overeat and over-stimulate our bodies. Asanas are conscious practices to make you fall in tune with the deepest you, so it can never be against your body. Asanas are about aligning yourself with the highest possible coherence, with the highest qualities of the cosmos. Aligning yourself is [[levitation]], maligning yourself is gravitation!<br />
<br />
There are two ways of finding which asanas are best for you:<br />
1) By your own practice, until you find your own sequence, or<br />
2) By the Master’s instruction<br />
<br />
In these particular asanas you will align your body perfectly with the super-consciousness, just like a mirror aligned directly with the source of light. This will allow you to tune yourself to the ultimate state of consciousness, and be established in Yoga.<br />

<div>Aparigraha is a consciously chosen minimalistic simple living - as a spiritual lifestyle<br />
<br />
I tell you the lifestyle of aparigraha, means living with minimal things, is the most luxurious thing you can have, because that will constantly keep you active in your peak possibility, your mind will be active, your body will be active. - HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam<br />
<br />
==Why Aparigraha==<br />
The context of aparigraha, the reason to live with minimal things is to keep you alive, active, to keep your muscle-memory and bio-memory brilliant, bright.<br />
<br />
See the luxurious lifestyle makes you insensitive; above all it makes you life negative. It just makes you life negative. It destroys your metabolism, it destroys your ability to enjoy, finally it destroys your very approach towards life. <br />
<br />
I tell you, luxurious fellows are the most frustrated people on planet earth. Much of the problem of developed countries is not depression, frustration. <br />
<br />
Is one of the biggest problem the developed countries are facing, because they have not understood with their own wealth they are torturing themselves. Having wealth is not wrong, but torturing yourself with the luxurious lifestyle is wrong. Don't punish yourself with a luxurious lifestyle. It’s an old way of living. <br />
<br />
It is not cool, it's not modern, it’s not fashionable. Living luxurious lifestyle like kings and queens is the old stupid way of living. Don't think it is fashionable, fashionable—cool is living simply. <br />
<br />
Understand, lifestyle of Mahadeva is most fashionable, modern and cool lifestyle. Catch it. The modern should accept, adopt lifestyle of Mahadeva, cool, that should become cool. That is cool. <br />
<br />
Create when you want, celebrate the way you want and don't punish yourself with luxury. That is the biggest punishment will you be giving to yourself. Why do you want to be a fool? Don’t you see and the kings, queens……duh duh duh….destroyed themself. Come back to lifestyle of Mahadeva, which is fashionable and cool. <br />
<br />
==Possess nothing, Enjoy everything ==<br />
<br />
DO YOU respect a beggar? Do you disrespect a rich man? <br />
<br />
In today’s world, people are evaluated only on the basis of their possessions and status. A person’s worth in society is decided on the basis of how much he or she owns. Apart from his physical wealth, his power and influence become important. <br />
<br />
Success in life is related to ownership of assets and the extent of influence. <br />
<br />
In reality, nothing can be more damaging to a person’s real success in the world than possessions and status. The desire to possess rises from comparison and jealousy. <br />
<br />
If your neighbour buys a new refrigerator your house gets warmer. From early childhood we are conditioned to desire what others have. When we are not able to possess something, we are unhappy and consider it a failure. We become happy when we do acquire what we want. This happiness, however, lasts for a brief period. It lasts till we find one more thing to covet. Happiness seems to be in the acquisition, in the chase rather than through enjoyment of what we have. <br />
<br />
Ramana Maharishi says: Till you get something you want, it looks as big as a mountain. Once you get it, the same thing becomes the size of a mustard seed! Greed drives us. Greed and envy are the root cause of all our sorrow. <br />
<br />
Gautama Buddha said that all suffering is caused by human desire. But Buddha was not referring to genuine need-based desires when he said this; he was referring to the unending stream of wants that we develop based on comparison. Joy is the natural state of a human being. Joy happens when there is no comparison. Joy happens when there is no attachment to an acquisition. It gives rise to sorrow when the desire for possessions imprisons us within the boundaries of time and space. When we recall a happy time, we keep trying to possess that time again. A desire rooted in the past becomes the driver of our present state of mind. <br />
<br />
Stop wanting to acquire more and more. Enjoy what you have. <br />
<br />
I keep saying this: enjoy what you have; there is no need to renounce what you already possess. Renounce only what you do not have. You do not have to move into a forest as a monk or sanyasi to find happiness. You can find it in the middle of your worldly comforts. All you have to do is to renounce your fantasies. That is the gateway to Bliss!<br />
<br />
==Live Simply==<br />
Live simply. To live in aparigraha is to strip your life down to its essentials . At the material level, the secret of optimized living is to use your resources efficiently, so that you achieve maximum results with minimum expenditure. <br />
<br />
When you live with minimal resources, you automatically learn to operate at peak performance. <br />
<br />
At the mental level, aparigraha is the courage to live with minimum beliefs or preconceptions. Only the courageous can live without beliefs, because it means that you will have to contact life every moment as it happens. <br />
<br />
At the spiritual level, aparigraha means living with no other support than the Divine. <br />
<br />
Obviously, this does not mean you will give up your job or your family. Aparigraha only means that you will live life with simplicity, discipline and tremendous internal freedom.<br />
<br />
==Sannyas - Living the Lifestyle of Aparigraha==<br />
This is a beautiful unique space which only a sannyasi of the Nithyananda order gets – every personal item used by you is personally blessed by the Master!<br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Apa&diff=12637Apa2019-04-02T21:16:01Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>Apa means unnecessary suffering.<br />
<br />
== Experience Tapa With Master, and Apa with Life==<br />
<br />
Some times in life you go through Apa. Apa means unnecessary suffering. <br />
<br />
But master takes care you do only Tapa, the necessary process for ultimate flowering. With master , there is only [[Tapas]] . There is no Apa, there is only Tapa. Just purification. Only the necessary processes which is mainly some times painfuller ,whatever you call it, but only necessary.<br />
<br />
I do not allow my people suffer one mg extra that what is necessary for them to breaking out of patterns or [[Enlightenment]].<br />
<br />
Understand , Mahakala as witness , I give you this statement with [[integrity]] and [[authenticity]] I never allow my people to suffer even one micro milligram extra. I myself dont like suffering because of that I don't like my people suffering.It is a simple straight forward policy- I dont like suffering, so I dont like my people suffering. Only the minimum basic required - some times you dont listen without suffering. Only at those moments, the minimum required dosage like anesthesia , how the minimum required dosage is used., same way minimum required dosage suffering is allowed in your life to wake up nothing more, nothing more.If I don't do ,life will do.<br />
<br />
But unfortunately in life there is no regulating mechanism, it is an automated anaesthesia. Some times more than what is required in life wake up calls also land in you.<br />
<br />
.. Please understand ,I want to make the statement very clearly to the humanity as the integrated carrier of this great name Nithyananda , I love Bliss and the joy which is the shadow of Bliss and I neither accept nor promote or recognize any suffering in any way.Naturally because I dont accept ,i will never ask suffering in your life.Wherever a little [[pain]] you may have to go through is nothing but a wake up call.<br />
<br />
Let this be very clear ,if you avoid the wake up call from the Master, there may be some thing else in life . If you avoid the fire alarm from the master, then you have to go for sprinkler only ,life sprinkler, our alarm is much better than life sprinkler.<br />
<br />
I dont give up on people even when people give up on me. I tell them alright when life teaches you ,if that is more difficult come back,I am there available, because in life there is no automated regulatory mechanism sorry there is no intelligent mechanism ,it is automated regulatory mechanism ,till you wake up, suffering is sent to you. and you don't even know why it is sent to you.<br />
<br />
With Master the thing is Tapa; with Life much is Apa - Apa means unnecessary non-required suffering.<br />
<br />
My biggest strength is I dont give up on people .I wait, wait, wait, bring that to your Ananda Ganda. No question of giving up on people . <br />
<br />
Please understand this, contemplate on this very deeply , authentically and answer me with integrity ,how you give up on people in that same speed If I am giving up on you ,please tell Me ,how many of you think you will not be here. Then you know the speed with which you give up on people in that same speed and frequency in that same way if I made my decisions to give up on you all so any of you will be here wasting your time. So dont give up on people.<br />
<br />
Understand people are life nothing else is life. Not money ,it can be created by people not buildings.It can be created by people ,any thing can be created by people but nothing can create people. People are life. The people you give up on in your life are the minuses of your life People whom you did not give up in your life are pluses of your life.This is the maths of life. Sit and do maths of your life. How many you did not give up all of them are your plus , how many you gave up a,all of them are your minus.See whether your life is running in loss or profit. This is the balance sheet of your life .balance sheet of life is different from your balance sheet of economy.The money balance sheet , every body knows how to do it. Your auditors know how to play with ,if you are with IRS , your IRS agents know .Your balance sheet is a game between auditor and IRS agents. That is not the real balance sheet<br />

<div>Anubhuti is your being coming to conclusion, cognitive shift because of experience. <br />
<br />
Example: When Swamiji initiates you, and you manifest powers. It is [[anubhava]]. Anubhava is experience. Because you manifest the powers, you come to the conclusions about you, life, God, Sadashiva. That is Anubhuti. <br />

<hr />
<div>Anna is usually translated as food. <br />
<br />
HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam takes us through a deeper meaning:<br />
''The word Anna I am not translating as food or grain. I am translating as nourisher.'' <br />
<br />
''Because many of the senses they don’t need food to thrive. Your mind you don’t need grains, your thoughts are enough, ears sound, nose smell, tongue taste is enough. Only for the body where all these senses stay, you need food. Grains are required only for the house – the body. For the tenants eyes, earls, nose they are all the tenants. They can thrive even without food . They can thrive with the Vishayin – food of the senses. That is why I am translating the word annam not just as grains but nourishments..''<br />
<br />
==Scriptural References==<br />
Bhagavat Gita, chapter 3, verse 14 –<br />
<br />
“annad bhavanti bhutani parjanyad anna-sambhavah yajnad bhavati parjanyo yajnah [[karma]]-samudbhavah |”<br />
<br />
All life forms come into being by the power of the nourisher (the Sun, food) which becomes possible by the shower (of grace) from sharing (sacrifice) the shower happens, the sharing (sacrifice) is possible only through performance (action).<br />
<br />
==Words have Taste==<br />
Negative memories gets nourished by agitation, mind by dilemma, eyes by the scenes, ears by the sound, nose by the smells, tongue by the taste…<br />
<br />
Please understand each word you utter has a taste. Not just the food you eat has a taste, each word you utter has a taste. <br />
<br />
Just sit and utter the word sugar, sugar for five minutes you will feel the tongue experiences the taste. Same way you utter chili pickle…because each word brings the visualization to your tongue….even if you don’t believe, sit outside your house and bless people walking through your street. Whoever is passing by, you don’t need to call and tell them, just tell by yourself – you live long, you have [[wealth]], you have all auspicious things go on telling this just from sun rise to sun set, your tongue will have such joy! Anybody has any problem related to tongue like stammering, bad smell, communication problem. Just to do this as a technique for one day. <br />
<br />
Of course in the US you will not have people in the street. Sit outside a mall. Go on saying let you live long, let you be blissful, let good things happen in your life. Nobody is going to disturb you for this. I tell you the power of this. You do not know the power of your [[vaak]]. When I only can bless you, you have no right to judge anybody. If I start judging, you are the last person to receive any good things. Be very clear, when you have good things in your life, the divine has not judged you. Don’t analyze how this can happen. Whether others get good or not, you will get good. Just sit and go on telling to people, you will be happy, you …<br />
<br />
So much of good will happen from your navel to the throat. See this zone is the zone the [[prana]] travels and gets molded by our inner space and comes out of words. When from the navel to the other side how the air gets polluted by the smell, same way the words that come from navel and above gets polluted by your mind. Just one day do this – be blissful, let all the auspicious things happen with you, don’t tell I will be with you – you can’t be with them. leave that to me J but other things go on telling – let you have wealth, health, all good things. Suddenly you will see that you have raised to the level of God. The most simple way to be God is to behave like God. Don’t claim. Just live like God! Don’t sit and analyze how to make it true. Just sit and do. You will understand how much of joy…<br />
<br />
==Anna Dhan==<br />
<br />
Upanishads say clearly - <br />
Annam Bahu Kurvita<br />
Annam Na Nindyaath<br />
Tat Vratam<br />
<br />
Food is the easiest way to spread positive energy <br />
<br />
Anyone who visits our ashrams, temples or centers around the world, does not leave without having prasad (energized food). Well balanced pure vegetarian food that meets any normal child/adults normal nutritional needs is served freely to everyone who comes to the ashram.<br />
<br />
As per the glorious tradition of Vedic culture, free food is served through out the day to all visitors in the form of Prasad (energized and food that is blessed by offering to the Divine) at the Anna Mandirs around the world. Meals are also served in schools, colleges and to the poor and needy in rural areas. Mobile Anna Mandir's serve meals in Mass meditation camps.<br />
<br />
On an average, we are serving 10,000 free meals a day in our Anna Mandir's across the world. Next to Love and peace the third and the most important quality pre-eminently necessary for a human being is the act of charity – particularly Anna daan. While there is always a desire for more when monetary or other forms of charity are made, feeding a hungry being gives complete satisfaction to the receiver, and of course, the giver also.<br />
<br />
Some statistics: Thousands of poor, visitors, mendicants (wandering sadhus) and devotees are served free food at Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam Ashram in Tiruvannamalai. On special occasions like full moon days, festivals etc., at least one lakh people (100 thousand) people are served in all our ashrams.<br />

<hr />
<div>There is a very intense meditation technique called the “Ananda Tapas”. This involves the meditator to sit within a circle of fire for several hours for many days under the supervision of the Master. This technique dissolves the samskaras (biomemory) completely and the engraved memories are burned and boiled away. <br />
<br />
==Incident from the Avatar's Life==<br />
<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda mentions a beautiful incident in his past that happened when he was performing the Ananda [[Tapas]].<br />
<br />
While doing the Ananda Tapas, he enlisted the help of a villager to take care of tending to the fire by adding more fuel to the fire. The villager gathered wood and dried cow dung cakes to keep the fire burning. However he was a poor guy and had no money to keep the fire burning continuously. While Nithyananda was pondering upon this situation, his eyes fell upon a lamp that he received as a gift when he had gone to a feast in Mysore. He gave this lamp to the villager and instructed him to sell it to buy the necessary fuel needed to keep the fire burning. The villager came back saying that it was a silver lamp and he got good money back in return. Nithyananda was surprised because the lamp was not made of silver when he received it. He suddenly remembered a [[sadhu]] (monk) who had handled this lamp. This sadhu was a great [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]] who never needed anything, no clothes, no food, no water and no sleep. However the sadhu used to smoke ganja (a local version of hashish or opium) by placing it in a chillum (straight conical pipe made of clay and used by wandering Hindu sadhus). When his stock of ganja ran almost empty he would place a few copper coins in the chillum and would tap the ashes out of the chillum and lo behold! Gold coins would fall out of it. The copper coins miraculously got converted into gold coins in his chillum. The sadhu played with the lamp and gave it back to Nithyananda.<br />
<br />
After a few days the money received by selling the silver lamp was exhausted, and yet the meditation had to be continued. Nithyananda remembered this sadhu and jovially said within himself that the sadhu should have changed it into a gold lamp instead of a silver lamp.<br />
<br />
The next day Nithyananda was invited to a nearby ashram for bhiksha (gifted meal) as a rich man was giving food and distributing gifts to all the sadhus. He was shocked when he received the same silver lamp back from the rich man. The rich man said that from the day he bought the lamp from the villager, a sadhu appeared in his dream everyday telling him to give the lamp to a young swami. As the rich man noticed that Nithyananda was the youngest among the group that is why he was giving it back to him. Nithyananda still needed money to continue with his tapas hence he offered to exchange the silver lamp for money with the rich man. On hearing the reason for the exchange, the rich man generously offered to take care of all of Nithyananda’s needs for two months and did not take anything back in return.<br />
<br />
This is the greatness of enlightened beings. With the highest purpose in mind, when you make a request for help, they just respond back to you irrespective of time and space. In Nithyananda’s life, a casual, honest request to an [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]] for financial assistance to complete his tapas, was immediately granted through the generous rich man who came in search of Nithyananda to offer monetary help.<br />

<hr />
<div>==Etymology==<br />
Amalotpava, means, without any male component it’ll be born - means the plant which grows in another one plant, without a seed. That plant will not grow from the ground, it will grow from another branch of the plant. It will grow on the plant without a seed, means on the Neem tree - Bael tree will be growing. On the Bael tree - Sandal tree will be growing. <br />
(Tamil - Pulluruvi)<br />
<br />
==Significance==<br />
The Amalotpava leaf is powerful enough to be programmed, means any Satya Sankalpa can be programmed into that leaf and that leaf will hold that energy and make that into reality. Because this plant itself, manifested its reality without any external help, it can make whatever you want into reality without external help. It’s a very powerful programming material, means matter on which you can do the programming, any spiritual programming; just like writing software. This is the base material.<br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Aloneness&diff=12631Aloneness2019-04-02T21:15:24Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>==Aloneness - The Ability to Live With Yourself==<br />
<br />
You are not just living inside your body as you imagine. You are living with people. Imagine if suddenly all the people living around you are dead. You are just there alone. Are you going to live happily? <br />
<br />
Aloneness is not living without anybody. No. It is ability to live with yourself. <br />
<br />
I am constantly transforming the people living around me, that is why I am constantly exploding in [[enlightenment]]. Right now, your aloneness is more like [[fear]] of relating with people. Real aloneness is being able to relate and inspire everybody, and being able to relate with yourself and inspire yourself whenever you want. <br />
<br />
Ability to inspire without any outside source is aloneness. I can remain in bliss without anyone – you cannot. You will be depressed!<br />
<br />
Sharing with others is nothing but creating an enlightenment-based community around you. It is not even serving others, it is serving yourself. <br />
<br />
First, any human being creates the sex-based community, the biology-based community - like your wife, your child. Then when you evolve, you create psychology-based community – your friends, who are ideologically connected to you. Only few create consciousness-based community. <br />
<br />
Fools are those who create only biological community around them. Great are those who create ideological community around them. Blessed are those who create a consciousness-based community around them! If you have a [[sangha]] around you, you are blessed. Sharing the truths, the great experiences, great joy, is what is creating consciousness-based sangha.<br />
<br />
==Get Comfortable with Aloneness==<br />
The Joy of Discovering Individuality <br />
<br />
OUR mind dies when we are alone. Mind needs relationships to survive. Mind, ego and personality are norms of a society. They thrive only in relationship with society. Our true nature is aloneness. However, our mind starves when we are alone and makes us feel uncomfortable as it is not conditioned to it.<br />
<br />
Our personality has a social basis of comparison with others. However, when we think of ourselves in terms of our personality, we are isolating ourselves from others. We are setting ourselves up for loneliness. Again, we feel uncomfortable as a result of this comparison. <br />
<br />
Personality is a status given to us by society. What others think about us, what we have earned, what comforts we have accumulated are all part of our personality. Personality is like an external covering. Personality thrives on attention. Personality makes no distinction between good or bad kinds of attention. For a personality to thrive, any kind of attention is sufficient. In all our social roles, whether positive or negative, we are constantly [[seeking]] attention. We act to seek attention. We beg for attention. However, sooner or later, we seek our true nature or it seeks us. There will be no one to praise us or blame us. Our ego and our personality are shaken with this lack of attention. We then start realizing that we are not merely the personality or the status we project to the outside world. We then realize that we are more than a spouse, much more than our professional label, and even more than a citizen of a nation. These are parts of us and we are more than the sum of all these. <br />
<br />
Individuality is our natural state. On most occasions, we nurture our personality ignoring our individuality. Individuality is internal. The cry of individuality can be heard above the clamor of our personality if we dare to be alone. Our life is filled with parties, shopping, or watching TV. Why? It is because we are afraid of being alone. We don’t know how to be with ourselves. Old people who have married grandchildren read matrimonial columns in newspapers for vicarious pleasure! Entertainment is to run away from individuality. <br />
<br />
For how long can we run? We always believe we will be joyful at some point or other. By the time we are about forty years old, we may get everything we want. But, we still don’t understand why we wanted all this. We are still unhappy. We have reached the [[depression]] of success. Take time to be with yourself. Get comfortable with aloneness. This is the state of meditation. It leads to bliss, Nithyananda.<br />
<br />
==Love Yourself First==<br />
<br />
The big problem today is that most people don’t love themselves. Society never teaches that it is possible to love ourselves. Real love keeps you in the moment. Understand that unless you love yourself, you cannot possibly love another person. Only when you lose yourself to yourself can you lose yourself to others. We are taught that we can only love even ourselves if we have a reason. If we perform well, we love ourselves. If we fail, we hate ourselves. We apply the same logic to others. We love them only because of something, never without a cause or a reason.<br />
<br />
When you don’t love yourself, you become cynical and negative towards life. When you were alone in your mother’s womb, you were completely loving and blissful. In your aloneness in the womb you experienced your loving self. That is why you will see that you assume the fetal posture whenever you lie down with insecurity. <br />
<br />
Blissful aloneness is your original nature. <br />
<br />
Once you came into the world, society conditioned you to believe that you needed people and television to be loving and happy. It never nurtured your original quality. Your original quality is blissful aloneness. If you get back in touch with that, you will settle down and feel peaceful and relaxed within yourself.<br />
<br />
Feel yourself as part of Existence and love yourself for it.<br />
<br />
For a few minutes every day, just sit by yourself and feel overflowing love towards yourself. Feel what a wonderful being you are. Feel how much you have taken yourself for granted. Feel yourself as part of Existence and love yourself for it. Melt with the feeling of love for yourself. If you practice this everyday you will see that where you were once hard and self-centered, now you have become soft and loving.<br />
<br />
When you deeply settle down within yourself with peace and love, bliss will explode in you. When your nerves are clean, when your nervous system is cleaned by peace, bliss will explode. You will start expressing the same bliss that is expressed in the master’s body language.<br />
<br />
Then when people love you, you don’t feel guilty or unworthy because just as they love you, you love yourself too. You become ready to receive love from others. Usually when others show love to you, you feel guilty or unworthy because you don’t feel you are worth being loved. Once you settle within yourself with deep love, you will receive others’ love with joy.<br />
<br />
==Aloneness Leads to Enlightenment==<br />
<br />
How often do we succeed in that? Never. <br />
<br />
None of our questions can be answered fully from outside of us. All our questions have answers from within. <br />
<br />
Listen to the voice within. <br />
<br />
People often ask me this question: What is man’s eternal quest? <br />
<br />
I reply: Man’s eternal quest is to find himself. <br />
<br />
The person said: If I say that they will send me to an asylum! <br />
<br />
A small story: Jawaharlal Nehru, then the Prime Minister of India, went on a visit to a mental asylum. There he met an inmate who thought he was Nehru. When Nehru introduced himself as Nehru to this inmate, this guy came up close to him and whispered, “Don’t worry. That’s what I too said when I came here. If you stay here for six months they will cure you too!” <br />
<br />
Such is the nature of the world. Even if God himself comes and stands before them, in human form, or any other form, they will resist the idea. Even if God appears in front of you now, you will demand some kind of identification. “Show me your ration card or ID card” you will say. <br />
<br />
If I say that Self is superior, it is real, and our search should turn inwards, you will wonder, what is this man saying. Each one of us is unique. We are perfect as we express our true nature. In that state no one is brighter, much perfect, and more beautiful than any other. <br />
<br />
Try this simple exercise. When we are alone we try to relate mentally with others. Drop that. Do not blame others for our loneliness. Allow the loneliness happen to us without resistance. We will then feel alone even when people surround us. To start with, we need to experience physical loneliness. Once the joy of aloneness happens, it stays with us even when we are not physically alone. To have aloneness we need to do nothing; it’s our reality. For material comforts we need to work and struggle. To be alone you just need to let go. Aloneness leads to Enlightenment. <br />
<br />
A disciple asked a Zen Master: How long does it take to be enlightened? <br />
<br />
Master said: Just the time it takes to blink your eye. You are already enlightened. You only need to declare. <br />
<br />
isciple asked again: What happened when you became enlightened? <br />
<br />
Master: Nothing! I decided to live in my enlightened state from that day. Blink and be in Bliss!<br />
<br />
==Upanishad Samyama - Discover Yourself With Unclutching!==<br />
“Yogi yunjeeta satatam aatmaanam rahasi sthitaha<br />
Ekaki yata cittaatmaa niraasheera-parigrahaha”<br />
<br />
– Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 6 : Dhyana [[Yoga]], Verse 10<br />
<br />
''“The jeevan mukta having subdued his thoughts and identity, being free from desires with an attitude of [[renunciation]] seated within oneself in aloneness should continuously connect with the higher consciousness by [[unclutching]].”''<br />
<br />
In the same way that a baby grows in the womb of its mother when she is sleeping, the soul of an initiated disciple grows when he is seated alone, within the self. Upanishad means nothing but sitting with the Master. No prayer, meditation or mantra is needed, all one has to do is sit. Although the fear of falling into depression may arise, there is no need to worry – after all, how long can worries haunt the individual when they are directly confronted?<br />
<br />
The mind is a powerful thing, it will bring up unnecessary excuses like work and not having time to sit with oneself. However, it helps to look closer and see that every person has as much time as they make for themselves. To find time is to sacrifice an hour of watching television or surfing the net, neither of which adds any value to one’s time.<br />
<br />
When excuses have lost power over the individual, fears will take over. Fear of failure and fear of depression will attack one’s resolve and attempt to break it, but the key is to face these fears. The person will be scared that they will sleep, or that they will never be able to complete the samyama. If not, they will be afraid of falling into a depression. The key to overcoming the constant stream of worry in the mind is to confront those worries. When human beings accept that they are truly alone, orphans in this world, they can face their worries. A strong resolve to just sit will fight away all deviances of the mind.<br />
<br />
DAY 1<br />
Be seated alone and allow all worried thoughts to express themselves. Remain seated for two hours with these worried thoughts. This technique will remove the fear and possibility of depression.<br />
<br />
DAY 2<br />
Eat until the body is full of food. After that, remain seated and allow yourself to sleep. Continue this for two days. After these two days, your body will get tired of sleeping and you will be able to stay awake throughout.<br />
<br />
DAY 3<br />
Visualize yourself as a stone statue and remain seated still.<br />
<br />
DAY 4<br />
Visualize all the knee joints to be locked and sit. Within eleven days you will discover the power of Upanishad.<br />
<br />
While practicing the entire technique, the best place to experience Upanishad is the Arunachala Mountain, the river Ganga or Kailash. It can be by visiting these places or simply gazing at pictures of these places. All three hold a prominent place in the Vedic culture and are few of the most powerful spiritual energy centres. With the help of these, one will discover the beauty and sweetness of Upanishad.<br />

<div>‘Alchemy’ is the science of preparing the chemistry to hold the higher frequencies of consciousness that occur through initiation. <br />
<br />
Making the higher frequency of consciousness occur to people is an easy job for Sadashiva. For an [[Avatar]], it just takes one look, one second, to transmit the higher experiences to us. Preparing the chemistry to hold, is the real job that needs to be done. Most seekers have the problem to retain that highest experience. Through this alchemy science, our body, mind and inner space is prepared to receive and hold the [[Enlightenment]] experience. <br />
<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda is taking the [[responsibility]] of reviving the Spiritual Alchemy Sciences from the Vedic Tradition. <br />
<br />
''The spiritual alchemy products are going to be my unique contribution to Sanatana Hindu Dharma and to this world. I will establish the [[authenticity]] and legitimacy of this spiritual alchemy products through various powerful scientific researches and studies and the personal experiences. Soon you will see, we will create tons of material on establishing the authenticity of the spiritual alchemy products, that is going to be My unique contribution to Sanatana Hindu Dharma and to the planet earth – evolving literally Enlightenment Pills, which you don’t even need to consume it, you just need to have it around you, pill will consume you. You don’t need to consume it, it will consume you. - HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
==Scriptural References==<br />
<br />
===Significance===<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda explains the significance of the alchemy science and its effect on neurology:<br />
''“Thousands of things, extraordinary experiences, powers, can be made permanent neurological, psychological, physiological, physical experiences in you, through these alchemy products, through this alchemy science. Alchemy science can make the vessel, your body and mind capable of receiving and holding the ultimate Enlightenment forever. ''<br />
<br />
''See in this cup, I can pour only the hot coffee. I can’t pour the molten gold. For that the cup need to become a stone cup, only then I can pour the molten gold, melted gold. The alchemy products will make you melt….the stone pot. Then I can pour the melted gold, means literally Enlightenment into you. It can stay in the system. ''<br />
<br />
''This whole spiritual alchemy science, is raising your physical, physiological, psychological, neurological state, to the highest peak possibility, to the peak possibility, and making you stay there permanently. Making you stay there permanently. Understand. One of the biggest problem we have, all the Seeker’s face, is they get the state but lose it. So this time I decided. The uniqueness of Sadā[[shivoham]], is through the proper spiritual alchemy products not losing the state. - HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
As Paramahamsa Nithyananda says - the biggest problem a seeker encounters is that he or she is unable to retain the space of Enlightenment. A simple horror movie clip for 5 minutes is enough, and all your years of spiritual practice is gone. You are shivering. Just a cough or cold is enough for you to become angry, irritated and agitated on someone you love and revere. A simple gas in the stomach can make you feel like your whole life is doomed. Hormonal fluctuations can make somebody look really beautiful, or make even God look like a devil. <br />
<br />
You go through these physical, physiological, psychological, neurological ups and downs, and therefore, quickly lose the higher states of consciousness. Not losing the higher states you experienced is the specialty of the spiritual alchemy products. Their uniqueness is that that they can support you with the highest frequency and permanently bolt it in your system. <br />
<br />
Thousands of extraordinary experiences and powers can be made permanent experience in you through these Alchemy Products. When you understand and use the whole chemistry of you going through these physical, physiological, psychological, neurological ups and downs for Enlightenment - that is called Alchemistry. This alchemistry can make your body and mind - capable of receiving and holding the Enlightenment forever.<br />
<br />
==Subramanya, the Lord of the Alchemy Science==<br />
Skanda Shashti [[Brahmotsavam]] is the day Subramanya was conceived. He was expressed through the [[Third Eye]] of Sadashiva, from His five faces: Sadyojata, Vamadeva, Aghora, Tatpurusha, Ishana. From the Third Eye of all the five faces and the 6th space, the unborn, faceless space, the energies of Subramanya was made. Adi Shakti held the whole energy together. The bio-memory of Adi Shakti and the bio- energy of Sadashiva were too powerful to hold together till the baby was delivered, so Ganga came to help. She acted as a spiritual incubator, adding muscle memory to this garbha. The bio-energy of Sadashiva, bio-memory of Adi Shakti and muscle-memory of Ganga put together is the [[completion]] of Sadashiva - Subramanya represents completion, complete manifestation.<br />
<br />
Sadashiva sent His DNA first to the Universe to expand and multiply in the form of Subramanya. He is the first DNA of Sadashiva, directly from Sadashiva’s five face Third Eyes, and the sixth space. That is why even Sadashiva has only five faces, but Subramanya has six.<br />
<br />
Subramanya is the lord of spiritual alchemy science. His whole birth happened as a spiritual alchemy. He is the Master of spiritual alchemy science. In fact, Subramanya himself appeared in front of Paramahamsa Nithyananda to deliver these truths. <br />
<br />
''“Before my own Gurus made me manifest the spiritual alchemy science, I was put in the ‘Kaumar Saadhana.’ Experiencing ‘kaumara’- or Subramanya-, kaumara on Skanda Shashti Day. During these six days, not eating anything, making Subramanya Yantra on [[Sacred Ash|sacred ash]], worshipping it reciting the Skanda shashti kavasa moola mantra 36 times. ''<br />
<br />
''It was a spiritual practice I was personally initiated by Vibhudananda Puri. Not only I completed it successfully, I had direct [[darshan]] of Subramanya, and received this whole spiritual alchemy science as one gift. After that, till I had the public life, never missed this Skanda shashti vrata. This is one of the most powerful spiritual experience I had.” - HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
Subramanya is the Lord of the spiritual alchemy process. That is why the greatest spiritual alchemists, the 18 siddhas, all consider themselves as the descendants of Subramanya, and revere him as the Guru of their sampradaya. <br />
<br />
==Alchemy Products==<br />
{{#hsimg:1|260| Alchemy Products | http://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2016-10oct-11th-nithyananda-diary_IMG_1030_bengaluru-aadheenam-IA-day20-navaratri-alchemy-initiation-swamiji.jpg?1476373107}}<br />
<br />
===Jnananjana===<br />
<br />
{{#hsimg:1|200| Jnananjana | http://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2017-3apr-20th-nithyananda-diary_DSC_3413_bengaluru-aadheenam-IA-day1-manifesting-shaktis-demo.jpg?1492869678}}<br />
<br />
Jnanānjana is an eye-liner prepared by an Enlightened Master by instilling his own bio-energy into it. It is actually an alchemy product where, with the pure ghee, pure cotton wick is used and the lamp is lit, energized through the Awakened Third Eye of an Incarnation or an [[Enlightened Being]]. His very bio-energy is instilled in that fire and the smoke which comes out of that fire is captured on a silver vessel and the pure cow ghee, desi cow ghee is added to that. Through the proper process, the alchemy product called jnanānjana is prepared. <br />
<br />
There is a beautiful verse in Guru Gita. Sadashiva reveals in Sri Guru Gita to Devi <br />
ajñāna-timirāndhasya jñāna-anjanaśalākayā | <br />
cakṣurunmīlitaṁ yena tasmai śrigurave namaḥ || <br />
<br />
The translation: <br />
''“ The One, who removes the blinding darkness of the eyes, caused by the absence of true liberating knowledge, by applying jñāna-anjana, the sacred black eye-liner anointing the three eyes, which is of the essence and bio-energy of pure knowledge, and awakens the all-pervasive in nite eye, cakṣuḥ, the intra-organ through which ‘all that is’ is seen, onto that Sri Guru, I surrender.” ''<br />
<br />
For ages, this secret inside the Sri Guru Gita was hidden from even the greatest scholars. The [[Jnananjana]] was an initiation given from Guru to disciple, Shiva to Devi, to achieve Enlightenment. Shiva himself clearly dictates how to make this in the Agama. This jnanānjana when applied on the three eyes, detoxifies all the three eyes and raises your frequency; it is an alchemy product described elaborately in the [[Agamas]] to make you experience awakening of all 3 eyes and manifest the powers Sadāshiva describes in Agamas. <br />
<br />
Jnananjana is applied on betel leaves, stone slabs and even mirrors to turn them into incredible spiritual machines. When applied on a stone slab, one can see galaxies and planets that are beyond the capacity of modern telescopes. With Paramahamsa Nithyananda, it is possible to raise the human civilization to the state of the highly advanced society of the Vedic Civilization once again. <br />
<br />
===Initiating Disciples into Jnananjana===<br />
{{#hsimg:1|260| Jnananjana Initiation | http://nithyananda.com/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2016-9sept-15th-nithyananda-diary_IMG_2765_bengaluru-aadheenam-IA-volunteer-initiation-swamiji.jpg?1474126166}}<br />
<br />
The Nithyananda [[Gurukul]] students started out by seeing scenes on the betel leaf which is covered with Jnananjana. Any onlooker could ask them a question.<br />
They would ask the Jnananjana, energized by the Third Eye of Sadashiva himself, “Please show me the answer.” They would close their eyes, and keep their chin down as if they were looking for something on the inside of themselves. Just as Paramahamsa Nithyananda does when he slowly open his eyes to the world again, the corners of their lips spread in a small smile as if they were utterly enjoying being alive at that moment, enjoying the beautiful relationship that they had with Sadashiva himself.<br />
<br />
A few weeks later, Nithyananda Yogam participants also began manifesting this power. Anything they would project, an onlooker would be able to see visually and tell them without any hint. There was no special penance that they did, no extreme [[tapas]]. They were lucky enough to be in the presence of their Guru and be witness to his ultimate compassion. <br />
<br />
Later, the same initiation was given to the Nithyananda Gurukul students to see scenes on the sacred Banyan tree leaf and the mirror with Jnananjana applied on it. <br />
<br />
===Using the Krista Sila=== <br />
Madurai [[Meenakshi]] is a great queen who ruled all of Akhanda Bharat and brought the Vedic civilization to its absolute peak. In her time, she had generated an enlightened population. This was the time where these powers were a way of life. Every human body was wired for Enlightenment. Every being was expressing joyously. <br />
<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda says “Of course, in Meenakshi’s time, there was TV, traditional TV. In darshan I saw there were stone slabs in every house. They would sit in front of the stone slab, chant the mantra, raise their frequency, immediately Meenakshi would appear and give her message. There was no video or archival system, but live relay was there in Meenakshi’s time.<br />
<br />
Just as they did in the era of Meenakshi’s civilization, the Nithyananda Gurukul students and Inner Awakening Participants are initiated by The Avatar into this power using the Krista Sila, the stone slab. The uniqueness of the stone slab, Paramahamsa Nithyananda says, is that the entire Universe is in their hands. They can find out the secrets of the Universe through this piece of granite far more than modern day science has. Paramahamsa Nithyananda explains that the resolution of what’s seen on granite slab is highest.<br />
<br />
He says, “In the Banyan leaf, if it is one unit, in the mirror it is hundred. In stone slab, it will be thousand, most perfect HD high quality!”<br />
Seeing anything in high resolution on stone slabs is the true revival of the ancient Vedic Shaktis to access any information needed to enrich humanity. All these powers express without much effort from the person, but by the direct initiation of The Avatar. <br />
<br />
===Mercury installation===<br />
Alchemy science starts with preparing the ground on which the meditation, alchemy process is going to happen. An Incarnation is capable of dismantling any molecule and assembling it as any other molecule, at any place and space and time he wants. The science of solidifying mercury is dismantling the liquid form of mercury, and retaining its mercurian quality, assembling it back as solid.<br />
<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda recalls when he did this in the Bengaluru Adheenam, “In this body, I did this three times: once under Sri Dakshinamurti (the AdiGuru, rst incarnation of Bhagavan Sadashiva), once under the present Garbha mandir (at the [[temple]]), once under Vaidya Sarovar Nithyananda Lingam. It starts from preparing the ground and installing the solidi ed mercury, installing proper Yantras, Mandalas, as per the instructions of Sadashiva.” <br />
Just these three Garbha installed in Bengaluru [[Aadheenam]] contribute and play a major role in preparing the Nithyananda Gurukul students and their capacity to radiate so many powers because they’re constantly living in that space. When this is done while the muscle-memory and bio-memory of a child is growing, while they are living in the sancti ed space, living in the space where [[Prana]] Pratishta is done, it does thousands of good things to them, starting with preparing their whole system for expressing extraordinary powers right from childhood. <br />
<br />
===Pulluruvi [[Puja]]=== <br />
The most unique feature of the Sanatana Hindu Dharma is the detailed [[rituals]]. in Agamas, for everything, from birth to death, to sanctify every act of man, and establish him in the frequency of the Divine. Every puja performed before the start of something brings the person and the whole space in a state of ‘poornatva’ or complete completion with the Whole. <br />
<br />
The pujas that involve spiritual alchemy also raise the frequency of the entire space and keeps it in that frequency for long periods of time. Pulluruvi Puja is one such puja. The word “Pulluruvi” is Prakrit language, used by the great Siddhas and spiritual alchemists. <br />
Each herb has certain ability to retain certain bio-memories and muscle-memories. The Siddhas, who were the ancient Vedic Masters were adept in this whole science. <br />
<br />
These Siddhas programmed objects through their will, clubbing different leaves’ bio-memories, muscle-memories and evolving a herb which can hold literally the whole Enlightenment bio-energy, bio-memory, muscle-memory. TThose plants and herbs are called, ‘Pulluruvi.’ It is ancient. Our Masters did it sixty thousand years ago for Enlightenment purpose. Just by will, they do it.<br />
<br />
When Paramahamsa Nithyananda came to the Bengaluru Aadheenam campus, there was a huge Neem tree which had the Pulluruvi in it. That leaf which comes out from it, which is modified in the mitochondria-cell-energy can hold the programming of bio-memory/ muscle-memory/bio-energy which is required for Enlightenment. There’s a process called ‘Moolike [[Prana Pratishta]],’ Prana Pratishta for herb, where prana is installed in the leaf, which will be there forever even a er leaf is taken out of the tree. <br />
<br />
Even after the leaf is removed, may be 2 or 3 or even 6 months, it will be fresh, as if you picked it up today. There will be no signs of withering away!” <br />
<br />
===Chidambara Chakra=== <br />
{{#hsimg:1|260| Akashic Readings | http://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2017-3mar-16th-nithyananda-diary_DSC_3807_bengaluru-aadheenam-IA-Day19-mandala-process-chidambara-mandala-swamiji.jpg?1489751491}}<br />
<br />
Mandalas are the geometric cosmic energy centers in whose shape the cosmic DNA is seen. Paramahamsa Nithyananda has facilitated the creation of multiple Mandalas, of which one is the Chidambara Chakra. <br />
<br />
The Chidambara Chakra was given to Paramahamsa Nithyananda by Mataji Vibhudananda Devi which he took to Arunagiri Yogishwara. Arunagiri Yogeshwara formally blessed and approved that this IS the original Chidambara Chakra which can hold the inner space of Sadashiva! Even if you just keep it near your bed where you sleep, or where you spend more time, it’ll change your life! <br />
<br />
===Sadashiva Garbha===<br />
{{#hsimg:1|260| Garba | http://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2016-10oct-11th-nithyananda-diary_IMG_0995_bengaluru-aadheenam-IA-day20-navaratri-alchemy-initiation-swamiji.jpg?1476373107}}<br />
<br />
[[Sadashiva Garbha]] is an alchemy product that literally contains Sadashiva in the powder form! It comprises four tubes which contain a specially energized powder, which is prepared by mixing many sacred materials like [[bhasma]], [[Kumkum]], [[turmeric]], [[haritaki]] etc. Paramahamsa Nithyananda infuses His very own bio-energy into this powder by a sacred process as per the Agamas. He draws yantra or powerful geometric diagrams with his trishul. The tip of the trishul is the bridge between matter and consciousness. It infuses the Bhagavan particle into the powder through this alchemy process. <br />
<br />
''“ The four tubes represent Sadashiva’s and Adi Shakti’s bio-memory and muscle- memory, Sadashiva’s bio memory and muscle memory...it is Sadashiva and Adi Shakti’s bio-energy . It is literally the garbha (cosmic womb) of Sadashiva and Adi Shakti.” ''<br />
<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda shares a beautiful story from his childhood to explain the power of the garbha, <br />
''“As a child, when I was brought up by Arunagiri Yogiswara, whenever I sleep next to Him, whenever I got a chance to sleep in His lap, I’ll pick up His thumb and put it in my mouth and hold with both the hands, so that He will not get up and go away when I’m sleeping. Only after I get up, I’ll allow His hand to be removed. Whenever I put His thumb and held, I know it is like a biting the live wire and I will be in a different plane altogether. I tell you, put this garbha under your pillow, you will be in that same plane.”''<br />
<br />
Sadashiva Garbha is the Bhagavan particle, the highest frequency of Sadashiva infused into matter and can be kept alive comfortably for next 20-30 yrs. <br />
<br />
==Benefits==<br />
===Alchemy Retains the space of Enlightenment===<br />
<br />
''Keeping the higher experiences in your system needs a systematic preparation through spiritual alchemy process. Even a small thing, when I give an energy darshan and you go down from the stage, immediately if you consume honey and tulsi or honey and the bail leaf, the energy darshan will settle down permanently in you forever. Even if you miss 20 minutes the whole thing will be drained you are back again as if you spoke to your spouse just now. Even if I work and raise you to the highest state of Consciousness 10 hours, 10 minutes one phone call is enough, you are back to square one; no, square zero. This simple things like honey and bael leaf opens certain nervous system in your brain, certain signals in your brain which holds the memory of the energy darshan experience as a living bio-memory. - HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
Without the spiritual alchemy process, spiritual and religious techniques are not successful. <br />
For example, the repetition of God's name, remembrance of God, contemplating and meditating on the glories of God, trying to achieve Bhāva Samadhi, etc - All these methodologies may give you a short-term experience, but will fail since the Seeker is unable to retain the higher states of consciousness. The spiritual alchemy processes and preparation is too important for you to hold the higher plane and manifest it as powers. <br />
<br />
Also, the new age spirituality groups in the modern day and the groups which use marijuana and psychedelic drugs - They get a glimpse of the higher plane, but they are unable to retain it because there is no spiritual alchemy process done to their body. Body was not prepared to hold it. <br />
<br />
The systematic way in which Paramahamsa NIthyananda is preparing your bodies helps you receive the higher truths effectively. For example, through [[Morning Routine|morning routine]] (morning [[yoga]], pancha kriya, puja, kirtan, [[satsang]]), by the time you sit in the Satsang, your whole system will be naturally be receiving what Paramahamsa Nithyananda is sharing. <br />
<br />
When you raise yourself psychologically and achieve the higher planes of Consciousness after your system is prepared with the spiritual alchemy processes, you will be able to retain that experience in you. Unless it is retained, your body and mind fall back into [[depression]]. You may even start looking at alternative methods like marijuana, drugs, alcohol, heroin. <br />
<br />
The spiritual alchemy processes and preparation is too important for you to hold that higher plane and manifest it as powers. <br />
<br />
===Just keep the Alchemy Products under your pillow===<br />
These spiritual alchemy products, you just need to keep it under your pillow and sleep and you will see the whole transformation of the quality of Consciousness. You will go beyond waking, deep sleep, dream states, into awakened Turiya. Your body and mind will be prepared to experience Sadāshivoham...<br />
<br />
''Everything available in Sanatana Hindu Dharma to raise your Consciousness and make you experience SADASHIVATVA, I am making everything available. Maybe all this, everything is made available for the first time after a long gap. Everything which stops you from Sadāshivoham, is opinion, everything which lead you towards Sadāshivoham is real. Anything, which is under the [[Maya Matrix]], cannot stop you. Declare your supremacy over the Maya Matrix and wake up. - HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
==Importance of a Living Avatar to transmit the Alchemy==<br />
The pure virgin space of Sadashiva is present in each of us, which cannot be touched by any [[incompletion]].<br />
<br />
''"So, if I just look at that Sadashiva's space which is in every one of you. Immediately you’ll be awakened, nothing else." - Paramahamsa Nithyananda ''<br />
<br />
This gives us the ultimate need for a Living Guru, Living Avatar to transmit the Alchemy. The Alchemy Science is being practiced during the Inner Awakening program, in Nithyananda Gurukul and other programs, where ultimate initiations (deekshas) are gifted by Him<br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Akashic_Records&diff=12628Akashic Records2019-04-02T21:15:13Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>Akashic Records are the mystical ‘energy records’ of all the events that have ever happened, are happening and will happen in the Cosmos. They are stored in the hiranyagarbha “The Cosmic womb” or Karya Brahman in a coded form. Whenever an [[Avatar]] requires the secret details of past and future events, it is through the hiranyagarbha that the Akashic Records are accessed. <br />
<br />
The key to decode them is in the hands of a very few beings today. [[Kalabhairava]] is the energy or the very fabric of the cosmic Space-Time dimension. From time to time, Kalabhairava, through the agency of these beings, provides access to the Akashic Records, this infinite cosmic library for the benefit of the entire humanity. This process is known as Akashic Readings.<br />
<br />
==Etymology==<br />
Akasha is a Sanskrit word meaning “the fifth element”. The first four elements are well-known to us: air, fire, earth and water. The fifth element is referred to in various traditions as “space”, ether, spirit or sky. It is the parental element from which other elements spring and into which they all ultimately dissolve. It represents the cosmic ocean of energy which contains all possibility.<br />
<br />
Ancient mystics understood that energy and space have consciousness. The “Sea of Consciousness”, as it is called in the Hindu Vedic scriptures, is not random. Akasha has innate intelligence. It is aware of itself. The creations it gives birth to likewise have the potential for independent intelligence. Every molecule in the universe carries the possibility for self-awareness.<br />
<br />
Akashic Records are the records of any event in the past, present and future recorded in the ‘Akasha’, or ether. <br />
<br />
==Akashic Records - The Database of Everything==<br />
Each action, thought and emotional impulse in us leaves a “trail” of energy, an imprint on the cosmic ocean, just as a boat leaves a wake in the water as it passes. These energy trails are recorded in the akasha: they are inscribed onto the ether. Every event that has ever occurred anywhere to any entity, no matter how tiny, is recorded in the Akashic Records.<br />
<br />
Because humans think of information as contained in books, mystics generally perceive the Akashic Records as a book, written document, or library of books. More recently with the advent of cyber technology, the Records have been compared to a giant computer system. <br />
<br />
Some traditions such as the Egyptian mysteries describe tablets of precious stone in which the writing is carved by fire. Reports have been consistent, however, that the information is written and can be read. It is of course written beyond any language used on Earth, and so the reading will be seen and narrated in the language of the reader.<br />
<br />
==Scriptural References==<br />
===Vedic science of the akashic records===<br />
The spiritual tradition from which Sanskrit took form is Vedic. Vedic Tradition is the ancient and venerable foundation of present-day Hinduism, born in the lush plains of the Saraswati River in what is now northern India. It was Vedic spirituality which first revealed the existence of the Akashic Records to humanity. The understanding of five elements from which all matter arises also originates in the Vedas, the earliest sacred texts which give the culture its name.<br />
<br />
===Words from Paramahamsa Nithyananda===<br />
Declaring that he is not to be considered the author of these teachings, as he is channeling them directly from the Cosmic Source, Paramahamsa Nithyananda said:<br />
<br />
''".. Please understand in regular [[satsang]] I just utter the words what you want to listen; more sophisticated, polished, sweet to your ears, able to understand by your mind. Akashic reading is just as it is in the record, I am reading it out. In that nobody is involved. Just the independent intelligence of the cosmos, the source of the creation, gives its expectations about your life, how the creator feels the life should be, what for he created what he created, what for he is maintaining what he is maintaining, what for he is rejuvenating and refreshing what he is rejuvenating and refreshing. So in this nobody is involved other than the ultimate superior - the source of creation.<br />
And please understand these readings are un-editable, unalterable. They cannot be edited, altered, manipulated. This is the command I give for the Nithyananda mission, Nithyananda [[sangha]] forever, forever. These un-edited versions of the original format of these readings should be made to available to the whole world free of cost forever. Nobody has a right to comment on these readings, nobody has a right to manipulate these readings, nobody has a right to interpret comment these readings. They are complete unto themselves. For anybody to live in tune with the cosmos, the [[Jeevan Mukti|jeevan mukti]], Living [[enlightenment]], does not need any special practice other than [[listening]] to these great readings again and again & again. When you listen to these great readings naturally your negative logic is penetrated, broken and these great truths settle in your inner space and they make you live enlightenment.<br />
I know the power of happening, just now, what is happening. I thank Mahadeva, for being so compassionate and graceful for offering his very book of heart to the whole world, letting all of us to read his book of heart. What he keeps in his heart as the most sacred secret knowledge. Thank you, Mahadeva, for letting all the beings to become Mahadeva. This science will make every heart which receives will become Shiva." ''<br />
<br />
==Reading the Akashic Records==<br />
There are many forms of consultation available to those who seek mystical advice. A commonly asked question is how akashic readings may differ from channeling sessions and seances.<br />
<br />
The answer lies in the difference between the unconscious and superconscious states. During channeling and mediumistic sessions such as seances, the medium’s consciousness is shifted aside to allow the presence of a guest entities, which speak through the medium’s body. The medium usually does not recall what was said or what occurred during the session.<br />
<br />
The medium’s trance state is at a low level of awareness, similar to hypnotism, so it is possible for the medium’s own suppressed emotions to surface during a session and contaminate the reading. Likewise, visiting entities do not always have a clear agenda and may or may not make accurate statements. It is questionable as to how reliable mediumistic information can be. <br />
<br />
==Maha Kalabhairava, the Lord of Time and Space==<br />
{{#hsimg:1|270| Lord Kalabhairava | http://nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2017-5may-23rd-nithyananda-diary_IMG_0134_bengaluru-aadheenam-sadashivatva-day11-VHP-nithyanandam-kids-day3-kalabhairava-gate-homa-darshan-swamiji.jpg?1495575492}}<br />
<br />
Maha Kalabhairava is the lord of time in Hinduism. As per Vedic history, Sadashiva took the form of Kalabhairava in order to decapitate the ego of Brahma. His form invokes terror in inauthentic souls yet he is glorious to those who are willing to drop their hypocrisies at his gaze. As the lord of time and [[integrity]], he is the keeper of the cosmic archives. He knows the past, present and future and is often sought by those who are brave enough to inquire for this reason.<br />
<br />
Kalabhairava is a living deity. He can be summoned by Sadashiva to express through him in order to deliver the cosmic truths to those who ask. Since 2012, Paramahamsa Nithyananda has been giving [[darshan]] in the form of Kalabhairava. At this time, he describes the state as being incredibly powerful and energetic. For everyone around, Kalabhairava’s presence is blissfully welcome. He answers questions to liberate human beings from their woes. Any answer given by Kalabhairava is not just an answer, but a karmic breakthrough for the receiver of the answer. Paramahamsa Nithyananda has answered many a question of a yearning seeker to give them answers, solutions, breakthroughs and liberation itself, as Kalabhairava. <br />
<br />
==Akashic records of each being are recorded in our DNA==<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda explains that the individual akashic records of each being are recorded in our DNA. Scientists have called this inactive genetic material “junk DNA” because it has no obvious function, but open-minded investigation has proven that biology does not furnish any “junk” tissue in nature. All organs and substances have a purpose. Leading-edge experiments with inactive DNA are revealing that it is simply dormant, acting rather like a storage area. Paramahamsa Nithyananda cites ancient Vedic science which confirms that the “storage DNA” of an organism contains that organism’s entire history, including all of its previous lives on Earth. It holds all the memories from each lifetime.<br />
<br />
==Reading the Akashic Records is useful for your Enlightenment==<br />
“All the information you collected from all of your births is in your DNA. You can access some of them just to understand, and not to waste the time doing the same actions again and again, thinking you will have the joy at end of this action. If you have done certain action and you did not receive the joy which you wanted, and if you forget you did not have the joy, you will be trying it again and again in various ways. But if you remember you did not have the joy, you will not try it again. You’ll not waste your time on it again. So accessing the DNA code, reading the Akashic Records, will be useful for you in that way to become enlightened, and not to waste your time on these foolish things.”<br />
<br />
This is release of [[karma]] through retrieval of our stored memories, by reading our akashic records internally. However, the process takes years or decades of dedicated sadhana — meditation practice. If the need for insight is urgent and time is a concern, we can request an experienced adept to obtain the information for us.<br />
<br />
Not much scientific research is currently available on akashic reading, although with the advance of science into quantum physics and theories like entanglement being explored, the door is wide open. It would seem that many scientists do not want their research or their name associated with what is thought as spiritualism or occultism. Certainly for any miracle or mystery to be believed, there requires a certain amount of faith, whether in the validity of science or in the validity of ancient teachings and records.<br />

==Paramahamsa Nithyananda answers during Akashic readings==<br />
{{#hsimg:1|270| Kalabhairava Darshan | https://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2017-12-Dec-22-nithyananda-diary_bengaluru-aadheenam_kalabhairava-darshan_7T9A0707.jpg?1515780002}}<br />
<br />
On April 21, 2012, Paramahamsa gave his first Akashic Reading, entering into the state of nirvikalpa samadhi, or conscious trance, to answer questions from a spellbound audience, via internet, across the world.<br />
<br />
What is the secret of the Bermuda Triangle? Did Judas really betray Jesus? Is there life after death?<br />
<br />
As Paramahamsa Nithyananda read, a number of surprising revelations came to light on topics as diverse as why did Judas betray Jesus and what is the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle, to locating a missing husband. Follow-up research has confirmed the veracity of the information. Some of the answers were unexpected in light of the news and information that the public is privy to today. Whenever someone publicly denounces an accepted reality, or offers a new reality, is natural for the majority among us to disbelieve it, but the prophet or visionary must do his job nevertheless. Even Galileo, who had noted that the earth revolved around the sun rather than the opposite, which was the popular belief in his time, was dramatically persecuted by the church in 1633 for his theories, which kept science and truth from advancing for many years thereafter. These same beliefs were already available in the Shatapatha Brahmana written by Yajnavalkya in the 9th-8th century BCE, and again concluded by Pythagoras in 540 BCE. In revealing truths from the Akashic records, Paramahamsa Nithyananda is inviting us all to move forward in knowledge and understanding.<br />
<br />
One questioner shares her experience:<br />
In 1988 I met a homeless man and knew we were destined to be together. We had a son, my husband went insane, tried to kill us, and ultimately disappeared without a trace. When Swamiji said he would be accessing the Akashic Records and we could send questions, I was astonished! Finally, a chance to find out what happened to my son’s father. During the Akashic reading Swamiji said my husband had committed suicide, something I had felt for a long time. We were apparently together in a past life, and his behaviour had caused me to commit suicide by hanging. We were together again in this lifetime to clear that karma. My task was to forgive him, which I did. He terrorized us again, so his karma remains. Swamiji further said there will be medical signs of my past life hanging in this lifetime. In fact, I was born being ‘hung’, strangled, by my own umbilical cord, and it took the doctors six hours to free me! This Akashic reading has been one of the most astonishing gifts my son and I could have ever received.<br />
<br />

<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda proudly names his Balasanths, the kids at Nithyananda [[Gurukul]], the holistic school at Nithyananda Ashram, as the sparks from Sadashiva’s third eye. They are the first of a new species, who manifest various powers of [[Third Eye]] Awakening. <br />
<br />
Some of the powers the Balasanths express include blindfold reading, body scanning, remote viewing, etc. Among the Shaktis, or spiritual powers, is Akashic Reading. The Nithyananda Balasanths have the access to decode the language of the cosmos and read the Akashic records with the initiation of Paramahamsa Nithyananda. Hundreds of people gather daily at Bengaluru [[Aadheenam]], and worldwide, to waiting to meet with the Balasanths During the Akashic Readings, they sit on thrones as the divine occupies their inner space. <br />
<br />
==Akashic Readings happen daily right after Morning Satsang==<br />

==Value of Akashic Readings==<br />
When we consider that life poses many questions to which we can find no answer, and that the answers may be available at a cosmic level, we can easily understand the wonderful gift in such an event. When the gift is offered to us by an [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]] capable of not only delivering the truth, but of counseling us on our karmic dilemmas and of erasing our karma itself, we can count ourselves truly fortunate to have found such a precious guide for our lives.<br />

<br />
Death is liberation and celebration. It is a natural conscious digestion process; gift given to every individual soul tormented by the ignorance that they are separated from the whole constantly reminding them anything which separates them including the concepts is impermanent, anything which see, which makes them feel as departed part of the whole is impermanent. To make every individual soul understand that the concept of your individuality is imagination and impermanent, death is given as a natural boon to the whole universe.<br />
<br />
Here Mahadeva(...)<br />
<br />
Here Mahadeva reads out the science of death for the seekers and for the people who want to cross the death. Death is of 7 types experienced by human beings. First - the man who feels he is nothing more than a body. He experiences oblivion as death. He feels end of his identity is death, end of his individual existence is death, which is obviously false, illusion, delusion, which brings tremendous suffering, and the suffering constantly tortures him and does not let him live even while he is having the body.<br />
<br />
Next - the person who is completely centered on desires, he has a greed and cannot understand the possibility for a breakthrough so he continuously extends his greed even after he leaves the body. All the concepts exists in all half-baked philosophies and religious concepts, the concepts of heaven and extended life where the desires are fulfilled, where the continuum of the desires exist, is extended delusion of desire-based individual identity setup.<br />
<br />
This is neither completely false nor permanent existence. Based on the ability to project their desires into the existential space they create their own heaven. As long as they are disillusioned they continue to project their heaven and live. When they are disillusioned by their own projection then they get back to their original source and decide the next course of their action based on the imaginations and delusions they retained after the disillusionment. Every disillusionment boils down the extended imaginations to the root delusion. If the root delusions themselves are boiled, burnt away, the imagination completely goes away, you are liberated from the imagination.<br />
<br />
If the root delusions are not burnt or boiled you project your root delusions into a different levels of imagination. Usually the desire imagination expansion, when it is disillusioned boils down to the root imagination. It projects again itself in the next root of guilt. The expansion, the imaginary projection of the guilt, is only considered as the lower levels of hell. Again neither the hell is completely truth nor the heaven is a completely truth. And same way neither of them is complete false nor of them is complete reality.<br />
<br />
Please understand this great truth Mahadeva repeats for every one of you to grasp inside. The reality you are facing now, what you call as bhooloka; the very less intense projection of your delusion is bhooloka and little higher projection of your extended greed is swarg swarga loka the heaven and guilt is little higher projection of your deluded disturbed mental setup, patterns of root greed in different direction. The guilt is lower level hells where you repent, repent, repent for your sins.<br />
<br />
Sin is nothing but retaining the root patterns of desire even after you are disillusioned by the projections of those same roots. When the fruits and the crops disillusion you, still you hang on expecting the different root or crops to come out of the same seed, is guilt. Guilt projects into the next level of hell which is again neither truth nor false. It is again your ability and the intensity to project decides the quality and quantity of the time you need to spend in the hell. Once you are disillusioned even your sufferings are not real. You enter into the root pattern which goes to the deeper root than the ordinary experience of hell. The deeper root is pain; the ultimate hells you experience. In this space again your death decides the quality and the quantity of the sufferings you are continuously going to experience.<br />
Understand every levels of death teaches you the great lessons if you are ready to hear. Every life every year practically every day, every one of you go through all the 7 deaths.<br />
<br />
The fourth death - death from the pain. Even the pain is also a projected delusion from the root pattern. It does not exist and it cannot co-exist with the existence of the cosmic soul. As the cosmic souls presence is felt every day by your individual soul in the deep sleep and the restful awareness, the pain pattern also faces the death. When the pain patterns faces the death, the experience the individual soul goes through is depression. Depression is not even the existence of pain. When you don’t even project your pain, when you are not even capable of projecting your pain on the reality, the comparative reality, the constant torture you do to yourself with the seed is depression. Seed which cannot grow but continues to exist as a living seed is depression.<br />
<br />
The death from the depression is the 6th death called dark night of the soul. Every soul goes through this dark night during the sleep in the form of a unrememberable nightmare every day. Morning when you come out of the nightmare and can’t remember the scenes but only can experience the feeling of the nightmare, it is dark night of the soul. Dark night of the soul is the near-death experience for so many individuals. All the individuals who record the near-death experience as being pulled into the cave and pushed out with a tremendous pain is near-death experience which is nothing but the dark night of the soul in the long term. When the dark night of the soul happens every night it is called nightmare, when the nightmare happens once in a life it is called near-death experience.<br />
<br />
Understand the great truths of the death. Even by listening to these great truths again and again and again you are liberated from these great truths. These great truths should be heard by the children before they are spoiled and wronged by the human society with the immatured ideas. These words should be repeated as mantras. So whenever you repeat a word again and again and again, not only the linguistic understanding happens, this forms the phonetic basis of your very thinking. When the great truths forms the phonetic basis for your thinking it is called Living Enlightenment.<br />
<br />
So the 7th death, the 7th form of the death which is beyond the Dark night of the soul happens as Nibbana, Nirvana - extinction of the individual deluded identity. The extinction of the individual deluded identity is the ultimate death which is liberation and celebration.<br />
What you feel as your identity is your identity centered on the body, then oblivion is the obvious truth about your death. If your individual identity is centered on desire guilt pain, resurrection is the obvious truth about your death. If your individual identity is capable of going through the depression and dark night of the soul, reincarnation is the truth about your death. If your individual identity is prepared while in the body itself to go through even the depression and the dark night of the soul and able to exist without the help of the body and mind, enlightenment liberation and celebration is the truth of your death.<br />
<br />
So the death has a four different meanings to the four different levels of people. If you remember yourself constantly as the body, oblivion is the reality for you. If you remember yourself as the extended desire inexhaustible guilt unbearable pain, resurrection will be your expected truth about death. If you are able to enter into the depression and the dark night of the soul, reincarnation is the possibility of your soul about death. If you can stand all these experiences while you are carrying the physical body and able to stand the ability to be without the physical body and mind through the unclutching, enlightenment is the equal word for your death.<br />
<br />
Enlightenment, when it enters into your system in the form of death, it is liberation and celebration. So death does not happen to all individuals equally. It is based on the standard of the individual, death happens. Whether oblivion is your truth, resurrection is your truth or reincarnation is your truth or enlightenment is your truth, is your decision. It is the individual capability and individual’s responsibility. When the quality of life increases day by day the quality of death also increases.<br />
<br />
A man who feels connected to the truth of oblivion, naturally obviously centered just on body, will not have completion, the complete feeling of life. The people who are in the middle level feel connected to the resurrection truth, the resurrection concept. That is why the mass feels very comfortable with the concept of resurrection. Very evolved individual, very few individuals feel the truth of reality of reincarnation. It is only very few enter into the experience of enlightenment.<br />
<br />
There are 27 more files on death to be revealed and read out by Kalabhairava. So for next 27 days Kalabhairava will read out the sacred secrets of Death and informations world need to know about death and Kalabhairava will now answer and respond to every question related to sacred secrets of life.<br />
<br />
So be very clear the words of Mahadeva which is coming out now, not only has linguistic value philosophical value conceptual value, truths based on which your cognizance should be functioned, it has phonetic value also; should be repeated like a vedic mantras chanted repeatedly so that constantly your cognizance is centered on these great words truths and constantly your mind is based on these great words.<br />

===Questions and Answers===<br />
<br />
'''The first question is from Jayalakshmi Verma from Washington DC: ‘Nithyanandam! Another birth question for Akashic reading. Its seems like with the sammyamas, we are here to transcend the body - don’t eat or drink, don’t sleep, don’t think about sex, don’t be bothered about heat, cold, pleasant or unpleasant, etc. Why take a body if we are here to transcend it? Thank you.’ '''<br />
<br />
Transcending is step for liberation. You took the body out of ignorance and delusion. Now the sammyama is the step to get out of, to go beyond the depression and delusion. So understand samyama is like medication. It is the solution for the problem which you created by feeling that you have the body. You are asking wrong question - ‘why to have disease at all when we can take medicine and get out of the disease’. There is no answer if you ask why to have disease first, then have medicine and get out of the disease. Because you already fell into the disease, medication is given to you; because you already fell into the delusion of having a body the sammyama is given to you as medication.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Deanna Bello from Las Vegas, USA: ‘Nithyanandam Swamiji, I have seen 1000s of babies come into the world, as it was my job in the labor and delivery room. Each baby comes into the world in a different way; some so sweet and peaceful and some so unpeaceful and stressful. I often wondered how their entrance into the world affects the rest of their lives, what they become in life and how they react in life. Birth is the most beautiful miracle of life. Is the birth process going to change in the future more peaceful? Are the attitudes of doctors going to change towards more peaceful birth? Deepest gratitude.’ '''<br />
<br />
Time, place, way, mood, awareness of your birth directly affects the way you are going to live. So the future humanity should become conscious for the truth birth is the greatest miracle, and possibly the conscious birth centers, the welcoming-mood-filled welcome centers for the human beings should be established. It is unfortunate human beings never understood the importance of the first moment of a being landing on the planet earth. Let conscious beings receive the beings consciously into the planet earth. This is the command of Mahadeva.<br />
Mahadeva blesses all the people who are having nayana deeksha now to be healed from all the wounds and sufferings you carry from the moment of the birth. All the wounds and the sufferings, deep patterns you are carrying due to the wrong birthing style, time, place, persons, way, let all that be completely healed in all of you. Lokah samastha sukhino bhavanthu. Let your manipurakas be healed completely. Let the healed manipuraka be filled with a pure kundalini energy.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Nitin Geetam: ‘Hari Om Swamiji! How to live a deathless life in this birth? Is it possible? Where is the soul residing in our body? What will be our next birth? '''<br />
<br />
Soul does not reside in your body. It only reflects on your body. The place you choose for your soul to reflect decides the level of awareness in which you are going to be living.<br />
<br />
If you choose mooladhara as the place for your soul to reflect, you will be centered only on body and the lust and reproduction. You will not find anything else as bigger experience. Human beings choose usually mooladhara and swadishtana as regular place of reflection. Very few peace lovers make manipuraka as the reflection spot. When you choose anahata as the reflection spot you become a devotee. When you feel and decide vishuddhi as a reflection spot of the cosmic soul into your individual body you become shaakta - an high achiever with a shakti. When you choose your ajna as a reflective place, the place of reflection for your soul, you live with extraordinary powers, as a siddha purusha, the embodiment of Shiva. When you reflect your cosmic soul into your individual body on Sahasrara you live as incarnation, embodiment of the cosmic soul, Mahadeva Himself.<br />
<br />
Mahadeva resides and expresses unique pure spiritual dimension in your body. So the body is not possessing the soul. Soul only reflects on the body. When it decides not to reflect anymore, the body is considered as dead. When sahasrara becomes the place of reflection suddenly a new center develops in your system which is responsible for the sahasrara to relate cooperate coordinate with the lower level of existence also. That new center is ananda gandha. So when you experience the reflection on ananda gandha you directly receive the incarnation’s energy radiate the incarnation’s energy. You become part of the incarnation.<br />
<br />
As you asked in the question ‘is the life without death is possible, is the deathless life is possible’, Mahadeva very clearly tells you all it is possible. He gives you the science which is most sacred secret - seven instructions. Do not eat anything other than this 3 items - goat milk, groundnut, haritaki - and continuously be doing ajapa japa. Let your breathing be completely guided by the ajapa japa. You can choose any mantra initiated by your enlightened guru. Ajapa japa, this three food and constantly unclutching; every night getting into the death meditation - death process; visualize, face all the death. Do not allow any samskara uncompleted. Death process is nothing but completion of all the samskaras. When you do death process every night, completion of all the samskaras happen. Understand, every instruction, when they are imbibed and practiced, deathless life is possible.<br />
<br />
The first instruction - do not eat anything else other than this three - goat milk, groundnut, haritaki. Second- do ajapa japa, let your breathing be guided continuously by ajapa japa. Third - every night complete all the samskaras and patterns you built by entering into the death process. 4th - continuously whenever you remember unclutch unclutch unclutch; reduce the time of unawareness and restlessness. Practice the presence of restful awareness. Next, remember these great truths about life and let all the cognizance about life be taken based on this one understanding about life and death. Life and death are not two different things. It is just continuous process happening in you as a natural force. Ultimately and finally remember the realization this body is not away, apart from your cosmic soul. It is also an inclusive part of your eternally existing cosmic soul. These 7 truths can directly make you live deathless life. Deathless life is possible.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Thyagarajan: ‘Nithyanandam! What should one do to be born in a spiritually conducive atmosphere?’ '''<br />
<br />
It is in your hands. This moment you can make your life in such a way, rearrange and reorganize, your life can be in a place which is spiritually conducive. When you can do, why are you expecting some remote roundabout methods to do it after some time? The question you are asking is nothing but the outcome of postponing - lazy mentality.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Joyce: ‘How many lives on an average the humans need to experience before they are completely liberated from all physical suffering?’ '''<br />
<br />
There is no number. It depends on the intensity of the individual.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Ma Manorama from Vancouver: ‘Nithyanandam Swamiji! Beloved Master, how does the invitro fertilization affect the resulting being after birth? Since the conception will happen in a petri-dish, will this affect the future person’s connection to the infinite or the cosmos? Thank you.’ '''<br />
<br />
No. This does not affect any way the possibility of the individual’s infinite connection. This process was being followed for ages in the Vedic civilization. The Kauravas have been given birth only through this process. So this process no way affects the individual’s possibility to achieve enlightenment.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Ma Aruna: ‘Nithyanandam! Dear Swamiji, kindly throw light on the concept of birth, death and rebirth of souls till they attain liberation. I am thoroughly confused about this imperceivable game of the Lord - his patience, his monitoring system of each soul’s progress till the attainment of the highest in as many janmas it takes. And is the number of janmas one soul takes predetermined? '''<br />
<br />
There is no individual Lord monitoring. Each independent intelligence has innate tendency and the inspiration to grow from life to death, death to life, life to death, death to life till it is completely disillusioned with the original delusion it is separate from the Whole. When the disillusionment it is separate from the Whole itself has disappeared, when the individual soul is disillusioned from this very word it gets back to its restful awareness.<br />
<br />
It is not the game played by somebody else and you are pushed into it to play. It is you are playing with yourself by yourself by your individual will. Any moment you can just realize you are the center person of this game, you are the judge of this game, you are the umpire of this game and get out of the game. Nobody is playing it. You are the umpire you are the player you are the audience you are everything. Wake up to this reality and get out of this game. If you want, continue to play this game if you want in the form of incarnation. The person who got out is videhamukta, person who is continuing to play with the clear intelligence he himself is enjoying himself, is living enlightened. Person who enters into others’ game also and makes others realize they are playing the game and they are the embodiment of everything, they are the audience umpire player and everything, is incarnation.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Rukmini from Chennai: ‘Nithyanandam! Namaskarams to Swamiji! How does the birth from space to power on women, for instance the birth of Karna, happen? What is the energy source of power that makes it happen? '''<br />
<br />
Space is not empty as you think. The space is more strong thicker existence than your body. Water is thicker existence than the earth, fire is thicker existence than water, air is thicker existence than fire, space is thickest existence than water fire earth and air. Thought is more thicker existence than the space itself. Because they are thicker than the other they are able to consume one other. Because fire is thicker than the water and earth, it can consume both. Because air is thicker than the fire it can consume that, because space is thicker than all other four it can consume other all the four. Thought is more subtle and thicker powerful than all the five. So thought can consume everything. If you can sit and center your thought and concentrate, you will see directly all the five elements can melt and play as you want. So space is not emptiness as you visualize through your bare naked eyes. It can be a channel. That is why the beings like Karna assumed the body using that channel.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Jyothi: ‘Dear Swamiji, it is said that people at one time were not born like how they now do, through human parents. Could you please speak on this and whether it can happen again? Thank you.’ '''<br />
<br />
Taking birth for human parents is only one form of birth. The possibility exists in multiple level. You can take birth on a stone. The baby can be processed in a animal womb, in the tree, in the stone, on anything. As on now, human beings widely use only few methods, taking birth out of human womb and some other modern methods. But millions of methods existed to take birth.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Roshan from San Jose: ‘Dear Kalabhairava, at the time before the part begins to think it is separate from Source, it is same as the Source. Then isn’t it basically the Source separating itself from itself, since the part only comes into existence after separation?’'''<br />
<br />
The moment the thought raises, part is a part. As a truth it never separates and in the normal comparative existence the part appears first, as part only decides to have the thought of separation - Whole does not decide. What decides becomes part. That is why the word ‘part decides to feel as part’ is the right expression in the language in which you understand.<br />
<br />
When Kalabhairava Mahadeva reads out the truths he reads out in the language you understand. There are many existential reality based truths can never be read out in the language you understand. So when it, he reads out in the language you understand that is the best form of expressing possible.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Sri Nithya Atma Maneeshananda: ‘Dear Kalabhairava, only Source exists. There is nothing other than Source exists. Then what makes the Source to become individual consciousness and why? That is what is the birth. I only existed after that event, prior to this I was not there. I know it is impossible for anything else including I to be other than the Source. Then why I the individual consciousness is persisting? One Source has become individual consciousness. What makes greed, fear, lust, desires to pop up in the individual consciousness? O beloved Mahadeva, please clear these doubts.’ '''<br />
<br />
Atma Maneesha already your doubts are cleared. All the answers I gave has clarified your doubt. Mahadeva has already read out the sacred secrets about this question and doubt. Whatever Mahadeva read out, listen to that intensely, this doubts and questions will disappear. Mahadeva has answered this question.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Dr. Shanti from Bangalore: ‘Nithyanandam! Beloved Swamiji, saashtanga namaskars at your divine lotus feet. Can you please let us all know why majority women go through so much pain, anxiety and stress during birthing process, though these are most beautiful, cherishing and fulfilling moments in their life. In few fortunate women who practiced meditation, yoga, power of visualization, listening to music and divine chanting, birthing has been a great joyful experience with minimal pain and stress. Can you please clarify? '''<br />
<br />
Human beings have the tendency to go through the pain and suffering even during the expansion. That is why even when the wealth comes to human beings which they were seeking with their whole life, the responsibility brings suffering and pain to them to maintain the wealth. Same way when expansion of life happens in the form of birthing, giving birth to a child, the responsibility body is not able to take, that is why it goes through pain suffering and torture. Otherwise the birthing experience is a spiritual experience. The great possibility of expansion happens to a individual when it expands into another one life.<br />
<br />
The moment of birthing can be used for the enlightenment of both individuals, who is giving birth and who is getting birth. So every moment the child takes birth, the child has a possibility for enlightenment, mother has a possibility for enlightenment. If both of them take the responsibility both can get enlightened. Even if the child is not capable of taking the responsibility, mother can take the responsibility and she can get enlightened. Birthing is great possibility of enlightenment as it is extension, an expansion process of individual body and consciousness.<br />
<br />
When the birthing happens if the child is kept without the umbilical cord being cut for at least few minutes then the mother can experience two souls. The moment child comes out, the individual soul enters. The mother has one individual soul, the child has another one individual soul. The umbilical cord connection exists between two soul. Mother taking up the responsibility of birthing and preparing her consciousness for 9 month and while giving the en birth she can achieve enlightenment, and after the birthing happens without cutting the umbilical cord if you remain, keep the child as it is, the individual soul which enters the child’s body will have the initiation from the enlightened mother through the umbilical cord which is the most powerful connection. The umbilical cord initiation directly makes the child experience enlightenment and enlightened bio-memory basis forms the basic experience of the child. When the enlightened bio-memory forms the basis of a child naturally child will grow as jeevanmukta, living enlightened.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Induja and Sinduja from Chennai: ‘Nithyanandam Swamiji! Can you please tell us about twins’ birth? Why two souls are born together? Is there any specific reason for it? And do the souls have the same purpose in life? '''<br />
<br />
There is no such thing as two souls born together. Only two bodies are created together and the possibility for the two souls enter is created. Otherwise the twins, even if they are born physically connected, has no spiritual connection. Even if the connection felt by few twins, is psychological.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Bodhana: ‘Nithyanandam dear Kalabhairava, does the body need to be left undisturbed for a period of time after death? If so, how long? In the Tibetan Book of Dead it sounds as if some souls take a while to move on. If we wish the highest possible evolution for the soul, can body organs and the body be given over immediately to science upon the verdict of brain-dead, or should the body be left undisturbed for a period of time?’ '''<br />
<br />
If the body is left undisturbed the remaining karmas will be transferred to the new body in next 13 days. But if you give the organs part of the body to any research or science for any purpose, that does not interfere the karma shifting process. Even if those organs are living in other body or being separated from your body and used for some other purpose, the karma baggage shifting process does not get disturbed. So the organ donation do not interfere any way your death process. The moment brain death is declared the parts of the body can be donated. It does not interfere in the karma baggage transferring process.<br />
<br />
When a death happens the individual reflection takes the next body within three kshana. The karma baggage gets transferred in 13 days.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''She is also asking, ‘If we have taken NSP, do the practices from the Tibetan Book of Dead need to be invoked? How do we know if someone is enlightened upon death and therefore should be buried and not cremated as – ’ '''<br />
<br />
Stop. The conscious experience which you receive from the program NSP by Nithyananda gives you a complete possibility of innate intelligence which awakens by itself through the experience of death. So what you understand by the Tibetan book of Dead need not be invoked, as this process in a complete comprehensive conscious way is already inserted, programmed in your system, by the conscious experience in the NSP. Next question.<br />
<br />
<br />
''' ‘How do we know if someone is enlightened upon death and therefore should be buried and not cremated as Kalabhairava stated on Akashic Readings?’ '''<br />
<br />
Both eyeballs will naturally move towards the third eye. If the both eyeballs have moved towards the third eye and they are centered towards the third eye he is enlightened being. And face does not carry any visible stress, again he is an enlightened being and the throat will not become stiff. If you put your finger on the throat you can feel still it is alive, he is living. An enlightened being’s throat does not become stiff frozen cold or like wood even after he leaves the body. So these few symptoms will make you understand this person whether he became enlightened before leaving the body. This can be used as a scale to decide whether the body should be buried or cremated.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Srikant Gopi: ‘Dear Kalabhairava, how can we grow younger each year? How can we achieve eternity physically and merge with light while in physical body?’'''<br />
<br />
I will give you the science used by Thirugnanasambandhar and the great saint like Vallalar and Sant Gnaneshwar. Every night complete all the engrams you built. All the samskaras you built should be completed by going through the death process every night before falling asleep. Every night if you go through the death process and complete and fall asleep there will not be any remaining engrams samskaras which is responsible for getting old. The time will not act on you. The bridge through which time acts on you, time enters into your consciousness is samskaras. Engrams is the bridge through which time enters you. If you break the bridge time will not be able to enter in your inner space. You will be free from time. The person who is free from time grows younger, younger, younger, due to his experience to live untouched by time and samskaras. This is the only and best way to grow younger and disappear into the pure light consciousness, the cosmic soul, without leaving the remains of the physical body.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''He is also asking, ‘Is it possible to achieve this siddhi through the 2012 transition? I would like to transcend death and live for another 200 years. Please advise.’'''<br />
<br />
It is possible. Through this technique you don’t even need to worry about this 2012. Do it and have it.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Anne-Marie Casou: ‘Swamiji said at satsang that after 65, body and mind were useless. Then what is the use of living longer? Why doesn’t life end there?’ '''<br />
<br />
The bodies and minds unused, unprepared, will not be useful after 65. If you prepare it from the young age, use properly, it will continue to be useful. You never reach the state of 65.<br />
<br />
She is also saying, ‘I am over 65 and I feel quite alive and enthusiastic. It is very hard for me to accept as my greatest fear is being unwanted. Is seva useless after 65, no matter how many hours and how much pleasure and enthusiasm is fed into it? Is our life purpose over whether accomplished or not?<br />
<br />
This is individual question, bring it in evening Kalabhairava darshan.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Vidya Ramasamy from Singapore: ‘Nithyanandam dear Swamiji, what is the role of doctors in disease and death?’ '''<br />
<br />
Doctors are also groping in unconsciousness. So when the unconsciousness is playing with unconsciousness nobody has a clear role in disease or death.<br />
<br />
<br />
''' ‘In the process of making a decision on withdrawal of medical care for a child, is it right to say that the child makes conscious decision to get liberated and merge with the cosmic consciousness and therefore attracts that kind of supportive energy from parents and doctors?’ '''<br />
<br />
No. Never the possible supports available should be withdrawn from any soul. Mahadeva does not approve the compassion killing, mercy killing or any form of withdrawal of the support. Every individual body should be given all possible support till the end, even though you may perceive this as a suffering, pain or torture. No mercy killing is accepted in cosmic law. All the people who are involved in mercy killing will be treated as murderers by the cosmic law and the individual soul which was killed by the mercy killing will be treated as a suicide or murder. If the individual gives the consent he will be treated as a suicide, if he does not give the consent it will be treated as murder in the cosmic law.<br />

<br />
Death is not end or extinction, extinction of existence. It is just climate change on your body and mind. Whenever many deaths of mind happens in same body, it is spiritual evolution. If many bodies die in the same mind, it is unconsciousness, spiritual endarkenment. If more minds die in same body you are spiritually growing, evolving. If more bodies die in same mind you are spiritually going down, destroying yourself. Again and again and again bodies die, minds die. Blessed are those in whom many minds die in one body. Continuously allow minds to be dying. Let your mind, even if you think in a best space, allow it to die, allow it for transformation. Allowing the mind to die every time in the same body leads you to the highest liberation and celebration.<br />
<br />
The concept of money, possession, ownership, is the side effect of inability to accept the death of the body. The feeling of ‘your son is your extension’ is also the inability to accept the extinction of body. When you are ready to accept the extinction of the body, the part of you which does not die goes through a powerful transformation, and liberates itself from the dying component of you, which is the body. Through this way it achieves a space where there is no extinction where there is no death.<br />
<br />
Death is the most powerful mechanism, either to get enlightened or to get yourself drowned in deeper and deeper unconsciousness. Every day when you fall asleep it is equivalent to death, when you wake up it is equivalent to birth. From the deep sleep if you come to the dreaming state it is unconscious birth. From the deep sleep if you come directly to the waking state it is conscious birth. Every day you go through birth and death. How you behave with this birth and death which is happening everyday is going to decide how you are going to behave with the birth and death which is going to happen with your body, because everyday birth and death is nothing but the direct glimpse of the long big birth and big death, which is only has a difference in time, but not in space or the place. Your everyday birth and death and every-life birth and death happens in same space and place. Only time difference between one birth and the other birth, the time difference between birth-death of one and the birth-death of the other is different.<br />
<br />
There are some files which is not able to completely be revealed just by verbalization. Even after reading, verbalization, still those files remain having some material without being completely revealed. Those stuff, those material, can be transmitted only by initiation. Because those akashic records cannot get into the realm of verbalization, they are not able to be translated into words. They just continue to remain as vibrations.<br />
<br />
When your mind dies in the same body and becomes a new mind, cosmos enters into you. When your body dies in the same mind, takes a new body, you enter into the cosmos. When cosmos enters you it is liberation, when you enter into the cosmos it is death. The part feels as part, the moment it wants to be part; part only should be blamed not the Whole, because part only continues to hold on to the thought to be part. Whole is not holding on to the thought. Even though the thought might have happened on the Whole also, only when you hold on to the thought you remain as part. So the feeling of separation, who created, why created, is not the really focus of your vengeance or action. Your focus should be on who is holding on to that feeling of separation, not who created, why it got created. Who holds on to it, gives life to it. The feeling of separation, because the part only is holding on to it, it is giving life to it. So your action and intensity to act upon should be directed to the center who is holding on to that feeling that you are separate from the Whole, you are part not the Whole.<br />
<br />
===Questions and Answers===<br />
<br />
'''The first question is from Janani. She is asking, ‘Dear Swamiji, if one has taken an unconscious birth, how can he take a conscious death?’'''<br />
<br />
That is what is life. Life gives you the possibility to move from Unconsciousness to Consciousness and Consciousness to Superconsciousness. If you take unconscious birth you can move to conscious death. If you have taken conscious birth you can move towards superconscious death which is enlightenment itself, and even if you take unconscious birth you can directly jump into superconscious death also, and same way even if you have taken conscious birth you can get back to Unconscious death if you decide strongly.<br />
<br />
Usually the conscious birth being does not want to get in, will not get in to the Unconscious; but life gives you the possibility of everything. All possibilities are given to you, are provided to you. So understand the possibility exists in life, that is why it is called life. Every time when you are living, the possibility for all the dimensions are open to you, available to you and waiting for you.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Mary Bernard: ‘Nithyanandam Swamiji! You have already spoken on the destructiveness of suicide. Some states and countries allow patients who are suffering with terminal illness to practice assisted death. It is strictly regulated. Usually the family gathers around the patient and some kind of painless lethal injection is given as per the patient’s wishes and instruction. Could you comment on this?’'''<br />
<br />
Cosmos does not agree this mercy killing. As Mahadeva already read out, it will be considered either suicide or murder. If the patient agrees it will be considered as suicide, the patient does not agree it will be considered as murder. But all the people who help and make this happen will be treated for murder in the cosmic law.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Sudarshini Madan: ‘Dear Swamiji, why there is so much of fear of death? How did the relationships emerge to be an important thing in our life?’ '''<br />
<br />
Anything you don’t understand, don’t want to understand, does not have the brain capacity to understand, fear surrounds it. Unknown is always fear for any living being. Now understand, Mahadeva himself the source of the creation, the source of the existence, source of the eternity is revealing these great truths. Again and again and again listen to these great truths, chant these great truths. This will liberate you from the fear. When your cognizance is based on these great truths, cosmic secrets, you will be free from the fear.<br />
<br />
The fear is nothing but the projection of negativity on the future possibility. It is not necessary you need to continuously project negativity or positivity on the future possibility. Simply seeing the future possibility without projecting negativity or positivity on to it, is living prarabdha. So the fear comes into your system only when you project your fear, your negativity, on the future possibilities. Negativities, the negative ideas, does not need to be projected on the future possibility.<br />
<br />
Relationships gives you the feeling it is very important in the life, because through every relationship you try to have extended life. While you are living, whatever your body and mind cannot do for your interest and pleasure, you try to fulfill through the body and minds of your relationships, and same way, whatever they cannot fulfill through their body and mind, they are trying to fulfill through your body and mind. So mutually each other helping to fulfill the other’s interest through body and mind of each other’s is relationships. If both of you understand the interests of each other and ready to support each other’s fulfillment, it is called successful relationship. There comes love compassion sacrifice and spiritual growth. But if both of them are not understanding the real agendas of others, interests of others, continue the relationship maybe because one person is has hidden interest, hidden agendas which he does not want to reveal it to the other or which he himself is not aware, when this kind of situations arise relationship breaks or relationships continue to exist with being exploited, with exploitation.<br />
<br />
These kind of relationships lead to the worst grave sin of keeping the other person as slave. Whenever the slavery happens cosmos strongly condemns it. So no slavery is allowed in the cosmos. Cosmos is strictly against slavery because In slavery even if the other person has their body and mind, it is equivalent to they are killed, they are murdered, because that body and mind is not useful to that person anymore. So relationship with a open mutual interest should be encouraged, and it supports both the beings to evolve towards the fulfillment, and finally the understanding - how many bodies and minds you may use to fulfill your interest, that your interests are not going to lead you to your restful awareness. So that understanding may help you to renounce all the interests and even your own body and mind and settle down in restful awareness. So this understanding will naturally be leading you towards enlightenment.<br />
<br />
Going smoothly towards that understanding will be happening through the right understanding relationships. The relationships with the mood of exploiting other person, with the hidden agenda without you revealing it to the other person about your interest or you yourself may not knowing it by yourself, will lead to more and more destruction depression. If the relationships continues it will be the sin of slavery, if it breaks it will be giving you great devoid depression feeling of emptiness. So the science of relationship is trying to have more body and minds to fulfill your interests and trying to give the other person also your body and mind to fulfill his interest. As long as it is mutual it is with a deep understanding it should be encouraged supported and blessed.<br />
<br />
Relationships with deep understanding with each other is equivalent to the conscious birth. Relationships without mutual understanding but still not broken is equivalent to unconscious life. Relationships without mutual understanding broken is equivalent to death. All unconscious life will be afraid of death and end in death. Same way all relationships which doesnot have mutual understanding will constantly have fear of being broken. Finally it will break and bring tremendous suffering to both the persons who are involved in it.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Mary Bernard: ‘Swamiji has said that departed souls take rebirth very shortly after death. Many mediums can see or talk to the deceased many years following a person’s death. The departed person can give information to the living that the living would have no way of knowing, or ghosts are seen generations after the death of that person. Does the soul somehow split, part of it moving on and part of it remaining as a part of the personality of the departed?’ '''<br />
<br />
Only souls which are murdered or committed suicide remains without taking another body till their natural time of their death. For example if somebody has to live for 60 years, he commits suicide or get killed gets killed at the age of 20, the remaining number of years he remains with taking the other body. Other than that nobody, no soul, remains without taking another one body. Sometime because of your deep imagination, you yourself project their souls out of your imagination and talk to them. Your unconsciousness supports and acts as that soul. It is the informations from your own unconsciousness, not from that soul. That soul has gone, disappeared once for all and carrying on with his life. You may be projecting it out of your unconscious informations while your unconscious supports the projection and the whole reading, talking, all the incidents related to it. It is like you using your own hand, caressing you or beating yourself. It is your own extension.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Thyagarajan: ‘Dear Swamiji, what should one do to leave the body without pain and in graceful way?’ '''<br />
<br />
Every night when you fall asleep, again and again and again, do death process meditation, nirbhaya dhyana. So when you do the nirbhaya dhyana, facing all the fears, death process, it will clear your inner space. Naturally you will enter into painless death and deathless space.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Rani from Bangalore: ‘Why does the consciousness keep moving from one body to another, as with its next birth it forgets its prarabdha, and has to waste more time knowing it or not knowing it at all? It does not even realize that it is choosing to move away from the Source. How does the Source support it at the time of death?’ '''<br />
<br />
As Mahadeva revealed, Source neither supports nor disturbs. It is the part which continues to keep the idea it is separate, alive, by its own existence. Source feels compassionate towards the suffering of the part and tries to remind the part in the form of guru, but unfortunately if the part is too attached to the idea it is a part, it not only does not want to listen to the Source when it comes in the form of the guru, and blames the guru is lying about the reality.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Dr. Sita from Chennai: ‘Dear Swamiji, how does one understand death to be a continuity? Does one take the new journey of birth from the place where he lived in terms of a spiritual level?’ '''<br />
<br />
There is no new journey - spiritual economical social educational; in all the levels of Saraswatya, Lakshmitva and Durgatva, the Kalitva, in all levels the soul starts where it stopped in the time of death. So there is not even a stopping and starting. It is just letting the new body to mature. Till the new body grows and matures, the soul rests. The moment the new body grows and matures it starts expressing its journeys, qualities, the way you live or leave the wealth, education and mental setup.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Uma Sundar from Chennai: ‘Swamiji, it is said that when you live fully in the moment throughout your life, death when it comes is but another event gracefully accepted. What is living in the moment according to Kalabhairava?’ '''<br />
<br />
Living in the moment means enjoying the totality of past present future. Living in the moment is not excluding the past and future. It is including, enjoying the impact of the past into the present and enjoying the possibilities of the future into the present. It is not that always past pushes you into the present. It is future pulls you into the present. That is why before even the happening happens you are in the mood which is going to happen. So it is future’s influence which is more on your present than the past influence. Past directly influences the future and through the future indirectly influences the present. Accepting all the 3 influences on the present and enjoying present is the base material of time.<br />
<br />
Past is the ghost, future is the projection of the ghost. Ghost and the projection of the ghost, both of them are projected on the material called present. That is present moment. Accepting the ghost of the past and projection of the ghost of the future, projection of the ghost of the past, which is future, in the present, including the material called present out of which all the three are living, are enjoying, accepting all the three’s influence over the present moment is living in the present moment. The great acceptance will make you live the present moment and experience restful awareness.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Devaki from Hyderabad. She is asking, ‘Dear Swamiji, what are the practices which can help the consciousness to leave the mortal body at will?’ '''<br />
<br />
Continuously if you watch your breath and know how the breath goes inside the body and mixes into your blood, spreads all over the body through your nervous system as energy which is strengthens the existence and reflection of life in your body, you will know when to stop the life supporting the individual life in your body; the prana supporting the reflection and life in your body.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Suma from Hyderabad. She is asking, ‘What is conscious death or graceful exit, and what is the exact lifestyle one needs to live in his lifetime to have a conscious death?’ '''<br />
<br />
Graceful exit means without any pain without any resentment leaving the body with a deep fulfillment, and deciding further whether to create another one body or once for all get enlightened and be liberated from the body and minds. The graceful exit naturally does not have any hangover and gives you the complete choice and possibility of next body or enlightenment. If you decide to assume the next body you are Incarnation, if you decide to be in the space of enlightenment you are God. So both choices are between you, within you. Both are made available for you. The lifestyle you need to live for the graceful exit is learn gracefully to exit in your life any moment which brings anything to you, whether you perceive that as good or bad, know how to gracefully exit without any hangover; move gracefully ahead of everything. Gracefully moving ahead, whether it is pain or pleasure, joy or life or death; whatever it is, move gracefully ahead.<br />

NamahShivaya NamahShivaya NamahShivaya<br />
<br />
Death is guru and god, not oblivion as perceived by body centered individuals. Death is a boiling process. Whenever your engrams, desires, fear, greed,everything is boiled in the high energy,there is a possibility your desires can become reality, your fears can be conquered. You can be free from both desire and fear if you are ready courageous enough to face the process with consciousness. Understand, during the death your desires come in front of you just to make you understand the disillusionment which can be caused by their presence.Fears come in front of you make you understand they cannot frighten you anymore. But if you do not have the awareness to look into them you get deluded by them.Even while they come to reveal the truths about them, it is like mistaking a friend to be a enemy, and before even the friend expresses his friendliness, you thinking he is enemy and dealing him with a different attitude.<br />
<br />
So when the desires and fears come in front of you during the moment of death, have patience and restful awareness to look into them.They are coming in front of you just to tell you their disillusionment and their ability that they can’t frighten you anymore. By not looking at them with a deep restful awareness, those desires are given a wrong extension of life by your unaware unconscious mind. When the desires are given a wrong extension of life, what you experience is heaven. When the fears are given the wrong extension of life,what you experience is hell. With restful awareness when you deal both of them what you experience is liberation.<br />
<br />
Death can be a great guru to liberate you and god to give you the ultimate. Having restful awareness in every moments of your life during the great attacks of fear and greed while you are in the body is the best way to prepare for the death, and ability to handle your fears and greeds which you may encounter while you leave the body. Moment of the leaving the body is of great importance. That moment will decide the way you are going to continue your further journey.<br />
<br />
So prepare yourself with restful awareness,continuously being a jeevanmukta, practicing living enlightenment, being established in restful awareness, during all the chaos or the tsunamis of fear and greed attacks in your life.While you are in the body in unconscious way without having awareness, perception on death before dying or during dying can bring tremendous suffering and can bring a big damage to the conscious evolution process which is termed as nivritti in the upanishadic records. So understand moving consciously into the death process liberates you from the fear and greed. Every moment in your life when you go through the fear or greed, the small dimension of death is perceived and experienced by your restless consciousness. Bring restfulawareness; you will have complete depth in handling the fear and greed with restful awareness, so it can liberate you.<br />
<br />
As these truths are apourushya and saarvabhoumya,not dependent on any individual, including the body through which it is read out, and saarvabhoumya - universal, anybody who internalizes this truth,aligns their conscious process of cognizance based on these truths, will be liberated and will celebrate their very existence by the grace of the KalabhairavaMahaakaala, the Cosmos itself.<br />
<br />
===Questions and Answers===<br />
<br />
'''The first question today is from Ma Nithya Priyatmananda, who is asking,‘Dear Kalabhairava, what are the steps of the death meditation that we need to do every night? Kindly explain.’ '''<br />
<br />
Every fear you accumulate, every fear makes you feel agitated, every fear which you donot want to think, remember, go through, go into all those fears consciously,neither deciding to save yourself from that fear nor having greed to achieve what you are afraid of. So without having the greed or fear, enter into the fear. Naturally the fear will lose its quality of fear when you donot carry fear or greed for the fear. Greed has its quality of greed because your greed for greed and fear about the greed. Same way the fear has the quality of fear because your fear for the fear and indirect greed towards the fear.<br />
<br />
So when your fears are approached with fearlessness and greedlessness, the straightening out of your consciousness everyday happens. The change of consciousness from jagrat to swapna,swapna to sushupti, the waking state to dream state and dream state to the deep sleep state, happens because your awareness is not straightened out. Either the bumps of the fear or bumps of the greedresponsible for your consciousness jumping from waking state to dream state or dream state to deep sleep state. If you remove all the bumps of the fear before falling asleep you will not fall asleep, you will fall into something called restful awareness which is recorded by the word turiya by the earlier mantra drashtas. So the word turiyadenotes the state of falling into the restful awareness without the bumps of fear or greed. Every night remove all the bumps you created during your daytime through fear or greed. Continuous practice of removing all the bumps of fear and greed by facing them will help you to fall into the state of turiya. This is what Mahadeva calls as death process – nirbhaya dhyana.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Sri Nithya Atmamaneeshananda. He is asking,‘Lord Mahadeva, my pranams. It is said you have given boon that anybody dies in Kashi he gets liberated. For this reason many people live in Kashi and wait for death to happen. What is the truth? Just physical living in Kashi is enough, or something more was instructed by you to do in addition to physical living?’ '''<br />
<br />
As Mahadeva it is my own words - people who live and leave their body in Varanasi get liberated. Along with living and leaving there was some spiritual preparations prescribed like doing ajapajapa and constantly being aware of the 3rd eye - ajna chakra. The whole air and the atmosphere was filled with this divine instructions and the spiritual practices, and maintained by myself as Kalabhairava. Still now anybody who is not capable, who is not practicing these practices for the minimum required amount, will be moved out of the Varanasi’s boundary before they leave the body due to some reasons, out of their ignorance or by the natural forces. So anybody who lives and leaves their prana in the Varanasi boundary naturally directly is liberated and achieves enlightenment.<br />
<br />
I Kalabhairava still maintain the sanctity of that vow and the place - physical place Varanasi. The sanctity and the vow which I gave it to the place, physically to Varanasi,does not have extinction. It does not have expiry date. As long as the planet earth exists and the physical place Varanasi exists, only the people who are practicing these 2 great truths of ajapajapa and centering themself on the 3rd eye will be able to live and leave their body in Varanasi.The very space and the place is filled with the physical vibration and the presence of me Mahadeva as Kalabhairava.<br />
<br />
The place, physical place of Varanasi, is equivalent to the eternal incarnation body - nithyaavatarashareera. How in the incarnation’s body eternally I Mahadeva reside, same way the place, physical place of Varanasi becomes the center of me-Mahadeva’s residence eternally. As Mahadeva-me reside in that very space physically,being centered, anybody who even makes the sankalpa of living and leaving their body in Varanasi or inspired, initiated to live centered on ajapajapa and being centered on the 3rdeye ajna chakra. Anybody who refuses, resists, is naturally moved out of that physical place before they leave the body, before their death. Still Kalabhairava-me directly supervising this physical act of removing the people who are unqualified out of the boundary of Varanasi and bringing the people who are qualified into the physical boundary of Varanasi personally. Still I am over-looking and looking after managing the affairs of Varanasi physically assuming the physical plane control over the whole place.<br />
<br />
Anybody comes there with a simple open eyes will see my physical administration in Varanasi. As this questioner himself is shown the physical form of Kalabhairava in the form of a photograph inside the Kalabhairava temple he doesnot need to doubt the existence of Kalabhairava in physical form and administering the Kalabhairava in Varanasi as the physical place. Not just on the spiritual place, in the physical place of Varanasi Kalabhairava-me is running the administration - who should be residing inside the physical boundary and who should be asked made to vacate the physical boundary of Varanasi before they leave the body.<br />
<br />
These are some of the sacred centers on the planet earth has a direct connection with the spiritual plane, and the laws of the cosmos is applicable still into the land of these places, the cosmic law, whoever rules and makes decisions of any man-made laws in these sacred centers. How the incarnations’ bodies can never be brought under the man-made laws, those bodies can neither be punished nor be treated under the-man made laws, neither be controlled nor be rewarded under the man-made laws. The bodies of the incarnations function based on the cosmic law can never be rewarded or disrespected, can never be treated or abused by the man-made laws. It stands above the man made laws and continues to radiate its grace beyond any man-made laws and regulations. Same way Varanasi stands beyond the man-made laws. It still functions based on the cosmic law, as Kalabhairava himself is ruling and organizing and running the whole administration even now physically.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Suresh Kandaraj, who is asking,‘What happens to the soul of the people who die in accident or get murdered. Is it similar to suicide?’'''<br />
<br />
In accidents if the person is directly involved saying yes to his own death, it will be treated as a suicide, or if he is not directly involved saying yes to that death, it is only the situation and things which are beyond his control are saying yes to his death, it will be considered as murder. During the suicide, the remaining part of the time he has to live without body will be with a deep guilt and pain, but if it is murder he will neither carry the pain nor the guilt.He will be just given a space to rest without any suffering or the torture. He will be just waiting only with the waiting mode without any guilt or suffering. But if it is suicide he will be waiting along with a deep guilt and pain and suffering. Usually the ghosts which disturbs the human beings, rishis,gandharvas,kinnara,kimburudas, are the souls which has committed suicide not murdered. The murdered ones will have tremendous sympathy and helping tendency towards the human beings and kinnarakimburudagandharvagandhara rishis.<br />
<br />
So the murdered ones can be of a friendly use for human beings,but the suicide ones as they themself will not be in restful awareness will not be able to help, and anybody who connects with the suicided ones who have committed suicide will be in danger. The people who have committed suicide, those individual souls will only be playing cunning games to impart what they feel as a suffering and torture and pain towards others as their deep frustration and anger towards everything in thelife, and will not be of any use orhelp to human beings. So MahadevaKalabhairava instructs all the mediums who are relating with the departed ones not to contact, relate, try to take any help with the souls which have committed suicide. But you can relate and try to receive the help and friendliness in any form any way which you know available abovesaid to the souls which are murdered.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Dr.Sundaresan from Sri Lanka who is asking,‘Dear Kalabhairava,namahShivaya. When does the death happen? Is it when the heart stops or when the respiration stops or when the brain death occurs as per our medical guidelines? How can a doctor help the soul which is leaving the body?’ '''<br />
<br />
What you understand as clinical death has nothing to do with the death. When death happens all these symptoms which you asked happens; heart stops brain stops and all the other symptoms which you claim during the clinical death happens. Please understand if all these things are happening one by one by one, when all of them happen, when the last symptom happens, that should be the moment of death as per the normal human understanding. Among these happenings of respiration stopping, heart stopping, brain stopping, which one happens last that should be the moment of death. Even if one is still happening then the death should be not be declared. Still the person should be considered as alive. But even after all these three happens, only if the reflection discontinues to get reflected on anandagandha, the complete death happens. The possibility of returning to that same body becomes impossible. It gets stopped. Till that happens the possibility of returning to the same reflection on the same body still exists.<br />
<br />
So what you call as clinical death should be the happening of all the three. Which one happens last that moment should be considered as clinical death. Even if one of them are still functioning the person should not be declared as dead. Even all the three happening is not complete possibility that the soul’s reflection will not be happening on the body again. It is only the humanly impossible to make the soul again reflect on the same body. So human beings can declare that as death. Cosmically only when the reflection of the anandagandha stops happening on the individual body he will be declared as dead, which will happen only after this three physical symptoms happen. Unless this three physical symptom happens the fourth one of the stoppage of the reflection of the anandagandhawill not happen. Sometimes even after this three, the heart stopping respiration stopping brain stopping, anandagandha can continue to reflect on the body for days or sometime months, sometime ages, as in the case of jeevasamadhi siddhas - the siddhas who are living in the body but stopped all the movements and actions of the body voluntarily. But all practical purposes for all human purposes, all human beings can be declared as dead only when all thisthree happens. Even if one is yet to happen you should be waiting and should not declare the person as dead.<br />
<br />
Let the vibrations of MahadevaKalabhairava bless all the bodies exist here with his initiation and liberate everybody exists here from death and let all the bodies present here be freed from the death and be liberated from the death. The Kalabhairava and his presence let it radiate many things which cannot be translated as words just as a pure vibration and living silence the vibrant stillness. All the bodies seen by this body be blessed to imbibe the vibration radiated from this body and through this body, which can’t be converted into the understandable words by you all, be radiated and enter as initiation into every one of the bodies present and seen by and through this body. NamahShivayaNamahShivayaNamahShivaya…..haraharahara……haraharahara<br />
<br />
Read the questions.<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Magalee Laurent who is asking,‘Beloved Swamiji, is doing the ritual for the departed being done after death important?’'''<br />
<br />
It is important as the living ones will be tormented by the unconscious memory and the living ones will project their life’s understanding and fear and greed on the departed ones. For the healing of the living ones the rituals for the death is important. Perform as long as you are free from the fear and greed projection of yours on the dead ones. When you are completely free from your fear and greed being projected on the dead ones you can stop performing those rituals.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Vishnu from Chennai, who is asking,‘What are all the practices and chants to be done to a person who is terminally ill to help him have a conscious death?’'''<br />
<br />
Kalabhairava: Recite all the akashic records readings done by Kalabhairava, chant all these great verses continuously. That itself will make the individual choose the conscious death. So akashic readings by Kalabhairava using this body of Nithyananda is enough to make the individual decide to have conscious death.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from J.Sumathi from Chennai who is asking,‘During our lifetime we get chances to reduce our karma. Do we get such chances of reducing karma between death and rebirth? Thank you.’'''<br />
<br />
No.Between death and rebirth, either you are in highly elated mood if you go through the conscious death, you are highly depressed if you go through unconscious death. The extraordinary elation or the extraordinary depression both spaces growth does not happen. Extraordinary elation is considered as heaven. Extraordinary depression is considered as hell. Neither in hell nor in heaven the conscious exhaustion of the karmas is possible. You will not be able to exhaust the karmas neither in hell nor in heaven as the space of the possibility for the mixture of both, possibility of the mixture of the both which is bhooloka, the planet space, is required for your conscious growth. The space and the time between death and rebirth cannot be used for growing consciously. So anything needs to be done for the conscious growth needs to be done between the time of birth and death not between death and rebirth.<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from an ashramite who is asking,‘DearKalabhairava, scientists and researchers say Near-Death-Experience is a change in the brain chemistry and brain function and not a trip to heaven. Is Near-Death-Experience really a change in the brainchemistry?’ '''<br />
<br />
Trip to heaven cannot happen without changing the brain chemistry and brain function. Change of brain chemistry and brain function can happen only if the trip to heaven happens. The heaven is physical reality only as much as the world’s physical reality. In ultimate sense neither the world is physical reality nor the heaven is physical reality. Both are nothing but chemical change in brain and change in the brain function. In other way if you consider the physical reality as reality, with that comparative existence, with that comparison you can call going to the heaven, trip to heaven is also a reality. So trip to heaven, trip to planet earth, both are either chemical change in your brain or trip to both the places. So if this is reality that is also a reality.If this is illusion, from the ultimate source that is also an illusion. So trip to the heaven and change in the brain function both are one and the same. Without one the other doesnot happen. So donot underestimate the change in the brain function, chemistry in the brain function, as ordinarily.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is,‘Why do we remember our past when we wake up from sleep, but not when we wake up into a new life after death? Is it because we take a different body after death?’'''<br />
<br />
Even after sleep you do not remember all the past. The amount of the destruction of your body is very less, but how much your body is destroyed that much of your past gets into the karana layer, the causal layer, and you donot remember. In the death the destruction of your body is more. Because of that the non-remembrance of the bio-memory is also more.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is,‘Is it possible to regain the memory of our past lives? Does one need to have a special body and nervous system to withstand such an experience?’'''<br />
<br />
Only the nervous system which is prepared by the yogic practices like unclutching which is freely easily able to handle the present life bio-memories available without getting stressed tensed diseased disturbed will be able to handle the more memories of the past life.<br />

<br />
Illusioned, expanded, identity possession is life. Life in a deluded way possesses and the possession itself is felt as its own identity because of illusion. When life feels it possesses the body and lands up in a delusion it is the body, it is life. When it feels it possesses wealth and wealth is part of its identity, it is deluded life. Same way when it feels name and fame, rewards and awards it possesses, and the possession itself becomes part of its identity, it is deluded life. Life goes on getting deluded with so many things, with the concept of possession, and in the deeper delusion the possession itself becomes part of its identity. Death comes as a great celebration and liberation as deluded unnecessary illusion and illusory identities. It’s a great relief whenever part of you, what you think as you, is taken away from you. The truth - which was, it was never, it were never part of you is reminded to you.<br />
<br />
Understand when money is taken away from you, when you feel the pain that some part of your identity is dying, it is a lesson to you it was never part of you. It was your possession which has deluded and given you the illusory identity it was part of you. When the name and fame is taken away from you, you are reminded to the truth it was never part of you. It was your possession, but due to delusion you identified that as part of your very identity. Same way, when you are reminded the body on which your multiple identities continue to grow, the brain on which the perception of your multiple identities are experienced by you; when that is taken away from you, the very ground on which your multiple possessions and the possibility of that possessions giving that delusive feeling you are part of those possessions and those possessions are your identity, is taken away from you.<br />
<br />
A being should constantly remind itself not to identify with any possession. Not having possessions and not identifying with the possessions is the path of renunciation. Even having the possessions but having the clarity the possessions are not part of your identity is path of grihastha. Whether you take up the path of grihastha through the responsibility and having the wealth and everything or the path of renunciation without having possessions itself, the important truth you need to remember is not letting anything become part of your illusory deluded identity. Whether you have possessions or not does not matter; that should not become part of your identity which is already deluded. When the source gets deluded by identifying itself by the, on the body, body itself is your possession. But, when you identify the possession of your body as your identity, the delusion of the identity begins.<br />
<br />
When the delusion of identity starts it leads to multiple identities, like identifying yourself with your wealth, with your name and fame, with all other possessions. Death is a reminder, a powerful guru to make your being understand all this was never part of you; these were never part of your illusory or deluded understanding. So relax from the illusion of identifying your possessions as your identity. Possessions are possessions. They are not your identity. Identity should be experienced beyond anything you possess. Possessed does not comprise or compete or fulfill or lead the experience of the true identity. Sometimes your own possessions try to compete your identity. The possessions competing your original identity is disease. When your body competes with your original identity, the competition is disease; when your mind competes with your original identity that is depression. When your possessions competes with your original identity - the possessions themself do not have independent life but the life received from the source identity - your possessions start competing with a source identity. That competition is perversion.<br />
<br />
So death clearly neatly irons out your inner space. It makes you understand many things which were never part of your identity but you assumed as part of your identity because of your experiencing possession of those things. Anything which does not say no to you continuously, you feels, you feel as possession. Unfortunately because they do not have any will to say no to you, your will possesses it. When your will possesses something it gets into the delusion that is part of you. Remembering things which does not say no to you is not part of you, is unclutching. Remember, things may not say to you, that does not mean that they are part of your very identity. They may be possessed by you. You may have ownership over them but you cannot have identification over them. Including your body you are only a owner. You cannot impose your identification on them.<br />
<br />
Reminding this great truth to you as a natural process is death. Death continues to happen multiple times continuously in your life because you carry multiple identities. You just need awareness to perceive, experience, live through all the multiple deaths happening. When you have the awareness, consciousness, experiencing multiple deaths in your life you go through conscious deaths continuously. Going through conscious deaths continuously does a great conscious cleansing in you. Continuously having conscious cleansing is living enlightenment. Once you are completely cleansed in your consciousness and remain pure you are jeevanmukta, you are radiating enlightenment. Understand the truth - death continuously happening in you consciously is just to remind you about your original purity and help you to remain in purity.<br />

===Questions and Answers===<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The 1st question today we have is from Sundar from San Diego Tiruvalluvar center: ‘Dear Kalabhairava, yesterday you explained about the nirbhaya meditation. How do we bring out the subconscious and unconscious fear and greed during the nirbhaya meditation? Thank you.’ '''<br />
<br />
When you again and again go through the Nirbhaya Dhyana, naturally in few days your subconscious and unconscious patterns open up. In cosmic law there is no separate subconscious or unconscious. Only the deeper layers on which you are not able to lay your hands immediately, you name them as subconscious or unconscious. Again and again peeling your patterns you reach the subconscious and unconscious. There is no need for separate process other than the simple straightforward Nirbhaya Dhyan.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Bharat from Dallas: ‘In yesterday’s satsang, you spoke about bhooloka. What exactly do you mean by saying, bhooloka is a less intense projection, and hell and heaven are little higher-level projection? Does it mean that it is more easy to find that bhooloka is a projection?'''<br />
<br />
The possibility for disillusionment and experiencing the other extremes is more easy in bhooloka. In bhooloka you can extremely experience the pain and the opposite extreme of the pain pleasure very easily without difficulty. But in hell you can never experience pleasure; in heaven you can never experience pain. When the opposite extremes are not experienced the delusion continues to delude you. The disillusionment of anything happens only when the opposite extremes are experienced. When you experience the pleasure, disillusionment of pain happens. When you experience pain, disillusionment of pleasure happens. Both disillusionments finally giving you the realization both are illusion can happen easily only in human body in planet earth in bhooloka.<br />
<br />
Because never pain happens in swarga, in heaven, people do not perceive, people do not get disillusioned. In heaven they continue to remain, understand, think, that pleasure is eternal. Because the disillusionment does not happen they do not seek the ultimate reality. Same way in hell because the disillusionment of the pain does not happen even by the moment of a pleasure, they continue to remain feeling the hell is eternal. That is the reason people who are in the hell or in the heaven feel it is eternal.<br />
<br />
Only in the bhooloka the truth of ephemeral reality comparative reality is experienced. So anybody wants to experience the existential reality which is beyond ephemeral and comparative reality has to land on bhooloka, and bhooloka is the thinnest layer possible for penetration and going beyond your patterns samskaras engrams. Any space you are made to experience both the extremes again and again will make you reach consciousness. All great masters’ feet will make you experience both extremes continuously. Energy fields are the space where both extremes are perceived, continuously experienced, and the completion of both extremes are made to happen in you so that the disillusionment happens very quickly.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Murali: ‘Dear Swamiji, pranams. In yesterday’s satsang you spoke about the waking state and deep sleep states. How can we spend majority of sleep time in deep sleep and what practices will help move from deep sleep directly to waking state? Thank you.’'''<br />
<br />
Nirbhaya Dhyan is more than enough. You can also practice unclutching and ajapa japa while you fall asleep. It will reduce the quality and quantity of the time you spend in dream. Directly you can fall asleep. Even directly falling asleep and coming out of the sleep directly to the waking state may help your physical and mental health but that will no way be helpful for enlightenment. For Enlightenment directly falling into turiya state and coming out of turiya is only going to help.<br />

<br />
Death is the illusion as understood by human brain. If you awaken the non-mechanical parts of the human brain it will have the capacity to see the life with a larger understanding. Children do not have even the level of the brain awareness awakened in the adults. That is why every time when they fall asleep and come out of sleep they feel they are dead and came back. They strongly believe whatever has happened in dream has really happened. That is why in the dream if they feel hungry, in the waking state they cry. And whatever has happened in the dream they feel as truth.<br />
<br />
The lowest level of brain functioning is responsible for taking your life as bits and pieces without having large vision. Person who thinks every dream is reality, every deep sleep is death and gets broken feels the discontinuity during sleep and waking is unconscious. When the brain grows little more and capable of looking at the life with larger vision, every night sleep does not feel like death. Every day waking up does not feel like birth. They are able to stitch every sleep and waking-ups together and call it as life. This is consciousness. If your non-mechanical parts of the brain is also awakened, kundalini also awakened, you will see lifes and deaths by stitching it together as the large life.<br />
<br />
Ability to see the large life and making your decisions based on those understanding is jeevanmukti, living enlightenment. Ability to see the large life different deaths and different births are not discontinuity of your existence; just like births and deaths are continuity, just like sleep and waking up is the continuity of your life, births and deaths are also continuity of your life. The more you see the continuity of the life, more you become intelligent. More you become blissful, more you become alive, more you are enlightened. Awaken the non-mechanical parts of the brain by kundalini awakening or any spiritual process as prescribed by incarnations and enlightened beings. You will realize death and birth is just continuity of the different parts of life; just like sleep and waking and dream is continuity of the same life, birth death and the gap between birth and death are all continuity of the same life. Understanding this takes away all the fear, all the possible fear in your life and gives you tremendous restful awareness - vast time is in front of you to fulfill your life’s purpose and mission.<br />
<br />
In the time when the greed is dissolved desire disappears. When there is less time more greed, then enters desire in your brain and mind. When there is vast time, any amount of greed cannot contaminate the time with the pollution called desire. When the time is available in front of you like ocean, no river of greed can change the color of the ocean, pollute the ocean. If the time is available just only in the size of a lake in front of you, even a small greed stream can pollute the lake.<br />
<br />
Understand time makes an important decision about the levels of your desire and fear. Man who understands the continuity of life and death, in front whom the vast amount of time is available, who is in the restful awareness with the understanding the vast time is available in front of them, who is not driven by the concept of losing time, is Kalabhairava. When you relax in the restful awareness of the vast time is available in front of you, time becomes your friend. Making time your friend is going beyond time, going beyond death. Then you become Kalabhairava.<br />
<br />
Just the simple understanding - just like birth, dream, waking, deep sleep, death, are all different phases of life, sleeping, dreaming, waking up, all three are part of same life if you are conscious. Same way dying, rebirth, the gap between death and rebirth, are all part of same life if you are superconscious. Awaken to this truth - your birth, your death, your gap between birth and death are all part of same life. I Kalabhairava tell you all, you don’t even need any other spiritual practice.<br />
<br />
Listen.<br />
<br />
Your life, death, rebirth, gap between life and death, birth and rebirth, are all part of your same life. It is not end or restart. This one truth can relax you, put you in restful awareness. You don’t need to hurry about your desires, about your greeds; cosmos is flowing towards you. You are flowing towards the cosmos. You don’t need fast track. The moment you understand you don’t need fast track because you have vast time in front of you, all the knots, thought patterns, samskara knots, the granthis you created in your different energy centers and the thought patterns you created, the thought patterns and samskaras still which you are keeping stiff, straight, gets loosened. The moment thought patterns - samskaras get loosened, they lose their grip over you, you live enlightenment.<br />
<br />
O human beings, remember this one truth, Kalabhairava out of my compassion, tremendous love, I am sharing this very sacred secret the basic important truth with you all, O humanity, listen! Your life, your death, the time between life and death, the time between death and rebirth, are all part of same life. Do not be afraid. Nothing, nothing will be taken away from you and you do not need urgency rushing towards any of your goal, greed. You do not need to have fear and escape from any of your fears, anxiety. Neither your greeds not your fears has urgency of time. Relax from the urgency of time. The restful awareness which comes when you relax from the urgency of time makes vast time available in front of you. Anybody who has a vast time available in front of them is Kalabhairava.<br />
<br />
Every one of you can become Kalabhairava when you relax from the immediate urgency of time. When your greeds can’t create desire in you, when your fears can’t create anxiety in you, you are free from time. The vast time is available in front of you. With the vast time available in front of you, your greed cannot make you urgent; your fear cannot make you disgraceful. Your fear cannot frighten you; your greed cannot make you desired desireful. O human beings, contemplate on this great truth again and again and again.<br />
<br />
The brain which I am using to radiate this truth to all of you is capable of transmitting that very truths to all your brains, as brains do not have individual consciousness. It is just bio-memory chip in human body. I bless you all to receive the truth, to relate with the truth, to be receptive to this truth. It can be transmitted just like that. It can be easily transmitted. It can just be downloaded. Your birth, your death, your rebirth, the time between the birth and death, time between death and rebirth, are all part of same long life. There is no discontinuity in the whole life. Let this one truth sync in all of you to make you understand greed does not create, need to create desire in you.<br />

===Questions and Answers===<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The first question today, saying, ‘Nithyanandam Lord Kalabhairava, it appears that anyone responsible for somebody else’s untimely death is treated as a murderer. In that context please comment on the following three cases – one, people who eat meat; two, animal… '''<br />
<br />
Stop!<br />
<br />
Other than Kalabhairava nobody has a right to take any life. People who eat the meat or kill to supply the meat, both are treated as murderers from the cosmic law. Lifes which can feel the pain to the frequency of the human life, are all considered to be equivalent to human life. So anybody kills even those lives will be considered as murderers. Agricultural products can be consumed as plants-trees do not have the life frequency and the pain impact of human frequency. They do have pain, they do have life, but not in the frequency level of human beings. Their pain is much, much, much low and highly negligible. As they do not have the individual consciousness also to reciprocate and respond to the pain, it can’t even be called or considered as pain. So eating meat or killing an animal for meat is directly treated as murder in cosmic law.<br />
<br />
Also, animals who eat both meat and vegetarian food or only meat…<br />
<br />
Again the same law applies. Animals who eat meat will be treated for murder. Animals who eat only vegetarian food will not incur the karma of murder. Animals which eats only vegetarian food will easily get higher births, higher level of conscious bodies. They are in the cycle of raising themself.<br />
<br />
Lastly, those who offer animal sacrifice to deities for certain religious rituals…<br />
<br />
Other than Kalabhairava and Mahakali, no deity has a right to receive animal or any life in the form of sacrifice. Only Mahakali and Mahakala, the lord of time has a right to receive any sacrifice from animal to human.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Aditya Srinivas, who is asking, ‘Mahadeva, pranams. Why should one experience extreme pain or extreme pleasure to understand the disillusionment of the identity? My gratitude for sharing your wisdom and answering our questions.’ '''<br />
<br />
Unless you go through the extremes you do not understand the impermanence, anithyatva, of the realities you perceive. Going through the extremes teaches you the truth of anithyatva, impermanence.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is saying, ‘Poojya Swamiji, you mentioned in an earlier satsang that death is a gift given to every individual soul tormented by the ignorance that they are separated from the Whole and come out of another body. Also, at the time of death, if soul has not forgotten its Source existence and connection, that the soul will separate from the Whole and come out of another body. Then what is meant by ‘soul rest in peace’?’'''<br />
<br />
If the soul remembers its source it will not take another one body. It will rest in peace. If it does not remember its source it goes on taking next body. As long as you take more and more bodies you don’t rest in peace; you are just flowing.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''What is the significance for the tradition of shraardham?'''<br />
It has no significance as far as the dead one is considered. It has significance only for the living ones. The living ones carry certain bio-memories given by the dead ones. Those bio-memories fall into peace, rest into awareness, relax into sattva and shantatva.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Also, is it necessary for a dead person’s family not to perform any homam or archana to God?'''<br />
No that has nothing to do with this. Both are not connected related in any way.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Dr. Sundaresan from Sri Lanka, who is saying, ‘Dear Kalabhairava, as a doctor I would like to treat my patient as per the cosmic law. Please clear my doubts. Is it good to reveal to patients about their death if they are terminally ill as in advanced cancer?’ '''<br />
<br />
Yes. Inform them what is going to come and tell them to be prepared. All doctors are expected to do this to their patients by me Kalabhairava. Inform the patients about the death coming even if you suspect. Let them prepare for their last journey. That is one of the biggest help you can do. Do not hide from them.<br />
<br />
<br />
''' You also said that listening to your talk on death would be of much help to those who are going to die. What is the alternative to those who cannot understand English?'''<br />
<br />
Translate this into their language and let them repeatedly listen.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Ma Nithya Ramya, Singapore, who is saying, Pranams at your lotus feet Swamiji. What is the difference during death if the person has got your darshan once in life but not connected to you now?'''<br />
<br />
Even if the person is not connected now, if he has not broken the connection of the spiritual umbilical cord, during his death the presence of the Master will appear and give choice of getting liberated or continue to have conscious birth to that life, to that soul. If that person has used the mind and body, abused the master, the spiritual umbilical cord gets disconnected. Then he will not be helped. He has to go through the hell and suffering.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Is there any difference in the death if it happens in the presence of a Master?'''<br />
<br />
He is directly liberated; given a choice not to have a body or to have a conscious body in which he will have a complete fulfillment. Death in the physical presence of the Master is a boon everyone should ask and wait, pray, beg for it. Death in the presence of the Master is the greatest thing ever a human being can get it.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Vimal from Atlanta-Ujjaini, who is asking, ‘Nithyanandam. If initiated Nithya spiritual healers heal animals such as dogs and cats, how will that energy impact them at the time of death?'''<br />
<br />
Animals will get healed by the initiated healers but the healers will not be able to help the animal to raise to a different consciousness during death. Only through prayer, feeling-connection, blessings of the Master directly, can raise the animal to the different level of consciousness.<br />

<br />
Death is the door to different possibilities. Death is the door to the happening; when past and future overlap the life it gets deluded and forgets its original natural existence. Death is the moment the influence of the past and the influence of the future is completely moved out. Life stands still in its natural existential reality. Life can be experienced in its purest form in death. Every meditation, every spiritual technique, every kriya helps you only break few patterns few sankaras few engrams, but death helps you to break all the patterns all the possible karmas all the possible engrams including agamya-prarabdha-sanchita.<br />
<br />
Death can be a great door to experience life existentially. Most of the beings experience life only during death. It is unfortunate they are afraid of their own life’s peak existence. It is paradoxical, beings which are supposed to be excited about life are afraid of the life which expresses itself intensely during death. Death is only for the things which can die in you, but you are deathless. If you are worried about death you always associate yourself with objects which can die. Objects which can die is not you, neither part of you, nor existential you. It is just added to you.<br />
<br />
Kalabhairava when he uses this body, he knows very clearly he is using this body, this brain, this system, to relate with the universe, with the human beings. The moment he finishes the job of relating, he does not identify, possess, associate, own, be one with this body or the brain he uses. When you do not own, possess, feel one with the body you are carrying you will have body and brain, not mind. Mind is the pollution created when you handle the body and brain. Beings having only body and brain, not mind, are pure beings not afraid of death, as they understand that they are deathless. It is mind creates the association, possession, ownership, and creates the idea of death.<br />
As per the akashic records, either you get into the depth and realize every moment birth and death is happening, then you will be free from birth and death, or go to the peak and realize the whole life is a long stretch of pure life. There is no death or birth ever happening. If you realize both the extremes or any one extremes you will be free from death, you will be free from the fear of death, misunderstanding of death.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Questions and Answers===<br />
<br />
The first question today we have is from Sri Nithya Ambananda from Tiruvannamalai. He is asking, ‘Swamiji, yesterday in the akashic reading satsang you told that killing any creature whose frequency of being and life is like that of humans incurs karma for murder. Can you please grace us as to how we can decide - killing which creatures is considered to be a murder in the cosmic law? Every day in our life we are forced to kill many creatures like ants, mosquitoes, etc. Can you please tell what we can do in this regard?<br />
<br />
Anything which moves should not be killed including ants, mosquitoes, snakes; anything which moves should not be killed. It will be equivalent to murder.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Next question is from Nithya Poorani from Los Angeles temple: ‘Koti koti pranam to Kalabhairava. Is it ok to go to funeral services to pay respect to friends or relatives?’'''<br />
<br />
It is ok. Seeing more and more dead bodies again and again your bio-memory is reminded about its certain end. It will awaken the intelligence to make the right decisions while body is functioning. So attending more and more deaths are good for any seeker. Any human being attending more and more deaths is good. People who live around the cremation ground or the burial grounds, their intelligence about life automatically awakens, grows.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''She is also asking, ‘When a person is liberated at the time of death, where does the soul reside - Akshardham in Swaminarayan, Siddhashaila in Jains or different spaces for videhi masters?’'''<br />
<br />
If the soul is an enlightened being he just becomes one with everything. There are some beings even after enlightenment request the Master not to have one more body and same way not to disappear into the cosmos. They request to enjoy the Master’s form by being around him which is called saameepya mukti. Those jeevas live in a space around the Master’s form. The Masters’ forms continue to remain in form, divyashareera, till his last disciple is enlightened. As per the promises of those Masters, decisions of those Masters, they continue to reside in divyashareera, the divine form, so the disciple who wants to enjoy the form, physical presence, decides to be around him having saameepya mukti. An enlightened disciple has a choice of saameepya mukti and saayujya mukti. Saayujya means becoming one with his formless existence. Saameepya mukti means enjoying with form his form existence. Each Master has their own videha loka, the space in the universe where his form continues to reside till his last disciple achieves saayujya. Till that period the disciples who want to be around him in saameepya reside in saameepya and enjoy his presence and leela, then they disappear into saayujya; they achieve saayujya.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Sri Atmamaneeshananda. Lord Mahadeva pranams. In the earlier satsangs you instructed for people living in Kashi have to do ajapajapa and awareness at the ajna chakra. Otherwise they will be pushed out of Kashi boundary at the time of leaving by Kalabhairava. Please tell the technique to continuously keep awareness at the ajna chakra.'''<br />
<br />
Visualize the lamp kept in the windless space in the place of your 3rd eye between the eyebrows constantly. That technique is enough to experience liberation in Varanasi.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''He is also asking ‘What is the boundary of Kashi which is considered Kashi and continuously administered by Kalabhairava?’'''<br />
<br />
The Nandi which is in Vishwanatha temple outside, near the gnanavapi, is the only deity which is there unmoved from the time of its installation. So from the face of the Nandi 12 feet away was the place the original Vishwanatha was installed by me Mahadeva. So from that spot 3 miles surrounding is the Swarna Kashi, the golden Kashi, and 3 yojana means 30 miles surrounding is the boundary of Varanasi. But the other side of the Ganga does not include in that Varanasi of the boundary, the boundary of Kashi. Only one side of the Ganga the 30 mile radius is Varanasi’s boundary. But the 3 mile radius is called Swarna Kashi. 3 mile radius was the community of human beings established by Mahadeva me directly. That is the first human civilization established directly by me and I myself used to go round taking care of the safety and security of that place, protecting the place from all demonic forces. My form of going round and doing the work of the security is Kalabhairava. Kalabhairava is nothing but my own form in different dress. Still 3 mile is directly administered by me Kalabhairava.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Saipriya Gowrishankar from Powell Ohio: ‘Nithyanandam Swamiji, is there anything called pitruloka?’'''<br />
<br />
No there is no such thing called pitruloka. All pitrus the moment they die get dispersed to different places as per their karma. There is no specific place pitruloka other than the bio-memories of the your pitrus you carry in your own body.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Sri Nithya Ambananda: ‘O Mahadeva, you said that if a man had to live till 80 years and if he is murdered at 40, he has to live without body for the rest of the 40 years. The first question is, if he had to live till 80 years, what makes him get murdered at an early age?’'''<br />
<br />
Life is a great possibility with lot of freedom. Only basic decisions are predestined and guided. Every inch is not predestined. Human beings play with lot of freedom. So when they have freedom they do commit lot of mistakes which goes against their destiny and defined lifestyle. The decisions which are defined can also be interfered by the free will and free hand given to human beings.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''‘The 2nd question - the remaining number of years a man has to live without the body, is the time period calculated same as how we calculate when he is alive, or is it according to his Thoughts Per Second (TPS)?’ '''<br />
<br />
The time is calculated chronologically. When he was alive, the flow of the time - the same is used.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from an ashramite: ‘You said sleep is also a form of death. Many of us fall asleep so many times in a day. Are all these considered as many death or only the sleep in the night is considered as death?’'''<br />
<br />
Every sleep is death.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The next question is from Magalee from Tillai satsang center: ‘Dear Kalabhairava, why some body does not decompose after the death of the body, as Padre Pio or some Buddhists priests. It seems that the body of Padre Pio who died in 1968 emits the smell of flowers and spices. Sometimes he even still bleeding. Can you explain that?’'''<br />
<br />
Body can be processed by right thinking, beliefs, food, so that either it can completely disappear into the thin air when you leave the body or it can stay eternally without getting decomposed or it can start smelling immediately based on the way you treated the body while you are inside the body. It continues to carry and radiate different qualities even after you leave the body. It’s a simple science. You can keep the body continuously functioning forever even after leaving the body. This science is known to siddhas and they have recorded this science. It is still available.<br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Aghori&diff=12627Aghori2019-04-02T21:15:00Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>Aghoris are simple beings - beings who live with complete simplicity. <br />
<br />
Today, we have complicated religion to a very large extent. We perform [[rituals]], ceremonies and practice techniques in a roundabout way to achieve health and [[wealth]]. But I tell you, religion is not meant just for health and wellness. Its main purpose is to help you break your negative mental patterns and achieve the ultimate. Health and wellness should only be a by-product. <br />
<br />
Aghoris directly work on breaking these patterns and simplifying religion. They don’t do things in a roundabout way.<br />
<br />
Aghoris are not dream sellers. Anybody who sells you a technique and asks you to go on practicing it, assuring you that one day God will give you [[enlightenment]], is a dream seller. I always tell people to work with [[unclutching]] for just 10 days. If it works, it works, otherwise forget about it. In 10 days itself, you will see a major breakthrough. When you experience the breakthrough, you are growing. <br />
<br />
If you tell an Aghori that God is all powerful and if you pray to him he will come and bless you, he will simply laugh at you. Like I said, Aghoris are not dream sellers.<br />
<br />
==The Nature of Aghoris==<br />
<br />
Aghoris can often seem like nightmares. They are embodiments of Lord Shiva walking on the planet, trying to wake people up. If you are too attached to life, then even the very sight of an Aghori will frighten you. Today, I see how people have lost connection with simplicity. Everything is seen with perversion. Aghoris are a tradition who are straightforward and simple. They are the embodiment of simplicity. Their way of thinking is beautiful, simple, innocent and straightforward.<br />
<br />
==The Attitude of an Aghori==<br />
<br />
An Aghori will directly work on his patterns. If an Aghori carries hatred towards something, he will eat what he hates. If he has any violence in him, he will learn to love that violence in order to let go of it. If he loves something and thinks it’s binding him, he will immediately throw it away. They don’t believe in gradual liberation by letting go of an object mentally but keeping it with them physically. They let go of everything they like and expose all their five senses to what they hate.<br />
<br />
If an Aghori has a blockage in his heart then he will open his heart, clear the blockage, and then stitch it back. They don’t even bother taking anaesthesia. And yet, they know exactly how to treat the blockage. They go into the depths of [[fear]] and face it, to the depths of hatred and let go of it, to the depths of suffering and come out of it, to the depths of [[pain]] and go beyond it. When an Aghori can’t wake up in the morning, he simply stops sleeping. They do not postpone things. This is the attitude of an Aghori.<br />
<br />
==Aghoris as Seen by the World==<br />
<br />
No other sampradaya (tradition) expressed as many extraordinary experiences and strong enlightenment experiences as Aghoris did. Aghoris are often projected as India’s wrong side by many people, or the side that needs to be covered up. As the only Aghori who is in the world’s most influential 100 Gurus, who is courageously boldly associating himself with Aghori sampradaya, I tell you Aghoris are the pride of India, they are the pride of Vedic tradition.<br />
<br />
==From HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam's Experience==<br />
<br />
When I was in college, I used to wake up at 4 A.M. in the morning and meditate till 8 A.M. in padmasana (yogic posture). My roommates started to shiver after watching me meditate. They started to move out of the room because of me and spreading rumours that I was a yogi and they should stay away from me or else I would curse them.<br />
<br />
I asked them why they called me a yogi when I didn’t even express any extraordinary power. They said “If you are not a yogi, how are you able to sit from 4 to 8 in the morning without moving?”. This shocked me. I could not understand how they found this unusual. Later, when I started contemplating about this,I realized that even sitting is a difficult task. Humans are hypnotized by the concept of conscious, subconscious and all this nonsense. Human civilization has already made you believe something before you actually tried it. When you have so much dirt inside, how do you expect to sit peacefully? Aghori sampradaya can flourish only in a civilization where this nonsense of unconscious and subconscious is not taught. You are an integrated individual. What you want, you achieve, that’s all. This is the basis of the Aghori sampradaya. Unfortunately, humanity is not at this zone. I still cannot understand when somebody says, ‘I want to do it, I cannot do it’. That word is the enemy of Aghori sampradaya. The Maha Vaakya ( great declaration) of Aghori sampradaya is “Simply do it”. If you go to an Aghori and tell him how much you fear death, he will simply ask you to go through the death experience itself.<br />
<br />
But Aghoris never ever interfere in others’ life, never cherish enmity or hatred towards anybody. They are compassionate people, like Shiva. If you go and tell them “Oh I am too attached to my bed, my home, my car”, they will tell you to sleep in the cremation ground, that’s all. The basic requirement for the Aghori Sampradaya is the clarity that you are an individual integrated being – what you want, your body does. What you want your mind does, what you want you do! Meditate on this three words and do it !<br />
<br />
== Hoonkaaras of the Aghoris==<br />
Aghoris are not that sophisticated; their teachings are called “Hoonkaaras”; means, just they will create a sound “hooooooooo”.<br />
<br />
In that “hoooooo” sound they will utter a few words, and again the sound “hooooo” they will continue. Because they (Aghoris) live in the smashaana (cremation ground), they pick up the sound of the fox, wolves. So they make the sound of exactly fox, wolf, and dog. Smashaana Vaasi Aghoris. There is a beautiful description in one of the Aghori’s “hoonkaara dhwani”. <br />
<br />
I should not say they are verses, because, they are not poetically right or grammatically right; they are just a few words uttered here and there, and then hoonkaara, their hoonkaara sounds. It says, ‘When you are giving the bhiksha, be aware that the Brahma Kapaala (skull of Brahma) Mahadeva carries will just eat away your whole ignorance also! Not only what you give, but it will just eat away your ignorance also! So, unless you are ready to renounce the ignorance, don’t come out of your house to give bhiksha when Mahadeva comes and stands outside your house and asks, “Bhavathi Bhikshaandehi”!’ Understand, be aware, the person who is standing outside your house with a begging bowl, his begging bowl is not an ordinary bowl which will just take what you are offering; it is Brahma Kapaala. If you stretch your hand to give what you are offering, it will eat away even your ignorance! I<br />

“That which has come from Śiva’s mouth and directly heard and received by Devi Girijā (Pārvati), which has been ordained by Śri Vāsudeva (Viṣṇu) to govern the world, therefore that is called Āgama.” <br />
<br />
===H.H Paramahamsa Nithyananda’s Atma Pramana on Agamas === <br />
''I will define Agamas. The software given by Sadāshiva, received by Devi, adopted by Vishnu, to run this Universe is Agama. The principles given by Sadāshiva, received by Devi, adopted by Vishnu, to run this Universe is Agama. ''<br />
<br />
''Agamas are also applied science, practical technology for Veda and Vedanta thought currents. Listen. Vedas and Vedantic thought currents are like pure science. Agamas are more like applied science to make that into reality. Basically all you need is [[Integrity]] and [[listening]], so you can internalize these great truths, and make them as part of you. When you know the Cosmic principles with which the Cosmos is functioning, it’s easy for you to align yourself to it and use all those principles to generate health, [[wealth]], relationships, whatever you want make in your life as reality. You can generate, express all of that as a reality in your life. ''<br />
<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda reveals the deeper philosophy underlying all four components as He shares that they are centered on the truth of'' “मातरिश्वा दधाति – Maatharishva dhadhDhaathi”'', as expressed in the Ishavasya Upanishad. ''“The life energy moves and expands itself, supporting all activities – means, the life energy you are carrying has no death. It does not dissolve into something; it does not disappear. It only moves and expands itself.”''<br />

<br />

<br />
==Introduction==<br />
''Mahadeva’s silence is Upanishads. His words are Agamas. When He breathed in silence, what reverberated in the inner space of the Rishis is Upanishads. When He opened His mouth, started explaining, that became Agama.” - HDH Paramahamsa Nithyananda ''<br />
<br />
Agamas are the sacred inner-sciences, the direct words of Mahadeva, which can manifest our realities and awaken [[completion]], self-respect and strength in us. From bringing God alive in a stone to healing cancers, Agamas amass every science! <br />
<br />
In Hinduism, the Vedas are the ultimate, superior authority. Vedas are like a pure science, where the ultimate truths are explained, but Agamas are the scriptures where the applied technology, the applied science is expanded. It is a practical manual of how to, what to, where to, when to, etc. All these are answered in detail with the right context, giving enough of understanding in the Agamas. <br />
<br />
All the Hindu organizational bodies, such as [[Kashi]] Vidvat Sabha, the Akhada Parishad, etc, accept Vedas and Agamas as [[Shruti]]. Everything else is followed as Smritis and they have their own status and respect.<br />
<br />
==What is Agama?==<br />
'' Software with which individual God and cosmos functions is Agama. The software with which Jeeva - the Self, Jagat - the cosmos, and Ishwara - God, all these function. If you decode the software you can have all the benefits of Jeeva, Jagat and Ishwara. ~ H. H. Paramahamsa Nithyananda ''<br />
<br />
'' The fundamental principles of existence, your existence as individual self or your existence as part of the society, your existence as part of your family, your existence as part of your community, your existence as part of your country, your existence as part of the humanity, your existence as part of the Cosmos, in every level of existence there are some fundamental principles to manifest what you want as reality. Mahadeva, Sadashiva explains this science as Agama. ~ H. H. Paramahamsa Nithyananda ''<br />
<br />
<br />
==Four components of Agamas as per Mahadeva==<br />
<br />
===CARYA - The Lifestyle===<br />
Carya is the lifestyle which purifies us. It starts from personal hygiene, keeping the place clean and keeping your inner-space clean. How you should wake-up; how you should brush your teeth, how you should wash yourself, how you should take bath, etc. From the time you wake up till you go to bed, purifying your whole muscle-memory is what Mahadeva is teaching through Carya.<br />
<br />
===KRIYA - The Spiritual Processes===<br />
Agama is only spiritual inner-science to manifest anything you want as reality. <br />
If you want to bring God into a stone and want to make Him live in that stone, there is a kriya, there is a process. If you want to heal your stomach [[pain]], there is a kriya. If you want to heal somebody's cancer, there is a kriya. If you want to bring rain, there is a kriya. If you want to stop the rain, there is a kriya. If you want to bring the Sun, there is a kriya. If you want to stop the Sun, there is a kriya. Everything you can achieve through these certain kriyas, processes. <br />
You many not do all the Kriyas, but knowing that science helps you to manifest the reality as you wanted.<br />
Once you understand the science of kriya, you don't even need to create the fire and pour the ghee. Just by changing your breath, you can manifest the same Agni from your body, and that Agni will manifest what you want as reality. You don't have to put rice and pour ghee into the fire. Just by pouring rice and ghee into the fire of your stomach, you will manifest whatever you want.<br />
<br />
===YOGA===<br />
The [[Yoga]] padha is practiced from the lofty space of powerfulness. Here, Paramahamsa Nithyananda reveals how the Shashtanga yoga of Sadashiva is far superior to the Ashtanga yoga of Patanjali. <br />
He shares, “Patanjali definition of yoga is – yogah citta vritti nirodaḥ – cessation of the mind is yoga. But Sadashiva doesn’t prescribe/ propose mind control anywhere in the whole Agama. He says thoughts are too superficial; don’t be controlling or fighting or playing with it, they have no meaning! <br />
<br />
Sadashiva’s definition about Yoga is experiencing Oneness with Oneness itself; union with Oneness is Yoga.<br />
<br />
<br />
Shashtanga yoga (revealed by Sadashiva) includes 6 paths – Pratyahara, Dhyana, [[Pranayama]], Dharana, [[Asana]], Samadhi – to manifest the experience of Sadashivatva. Every component is crucial to manifesting Sadashivatva; there are no cultural frills. Yoga comes from Hinduism for manifesting Sadashivatva – the highest reality possible.”<br />
<br />
===JNANA - Knowlege===<br />
<br />
The Sanskrit term “Jnana” if often translated as knowledge. <br />
<br />
But Sadashiva’s definition goes well beyond the ordinary. As Paramahamsa Nithyananda reveals, “Sadashiva’s definition about Jnana is Enlightened about everything that exists is Jnana.”<br />
<br />
As you can see, this lofty definition is as vast and infinite as Sadashiva!<br />
Ultimately, the practice of Agamas develops tremendous self-respect, and manifests wonderful powers in us. With this, we are constantly centered on our highest self and powerfulness.<br />
<br />
Here, the presence of a living [[Avatar]] of Sadashiva provides a quantum leap in the practice and experience of Agamic truths. As Sadashiva Himself explains, “First, a person needs to start practicing the preparations – [[charya]]. You do [[puja]], yoga, pranayama, apply [[bhasma]], wear rudraksha – all the lifestyle practices. Then, you start doing kriya, tuning your body and mind to higher realms. Then, connecting with the higher realms, that is yoga. And living in that higher space itself is Jnana. This is the normal course of a spiritual seeker in regular Shaivite method.”<br />
<br />
But in the presence of a living Avatar – Sadashiva gives a beautiful description, “When you have an Enlightened Guru, Shiva Yogi who is established in the space of Sadashivatva, first you get initiated – you experience and understand Oneness. After that, the lifestyle practices you do is not for achieving power; it is for MANIFESTING the powers of Sadashiva.”<br />

==Practice Agamas to Manifest Shaktis==<br />
To awaken completion in you, to awaken strength in you, to awaken joy in you, to awaken respect for yourself in you — Mahadeva helps you to manifest so many Shaktis (spiritual powers) in the Agamas. Anybody who practices Agama, develops tremendous respect for themselves about themselves. It is not ego. Ego will always be based on powerlessness. Self-respect will always be based on powerfulness.<br />
<br />
Self-respect for yourself is never an ego. Mahadeva does that to you, when you practice Agama – the lifestyle of Shuddhadvaitam. <br />
If you understand the science of Kriya as per Agamas, every moment of your life, you will become more and more powerful. You will become more and more intelligent, more and more energetic.<br />
<br />
==Why Follow Agamas==<br />
<br />
<br />
{{#hsimg:1|272.108843537415| Initiation | http://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2016-1jan-2nd-nithyananda-diary_5F0A9623_bidadi-jayanthi-brahmotsavam-visesha-deeksha-initiation-swamiji.JPG?1452107092}}<br />
<br />
<br />
'' “What is the reason to follow this lifestyle Swamiji?” ''<br />
<br />
''“In Agama, Sadashiva has given 100 instructions. The moment 10-20 instructions have become My experience, my [[Anubhuti]], My reality, My life, My experience, My, whatever, whatever, reality—that's it. Now, I am not going to waste My life, waiting to get convinced about the remaining eighty instructions.I am going to fall head over heels and start practicing all the hundred. ''<br />
<br />
''Fools are those, who think, “Oh, I know when I put rudraksha in the ears, my listening has gone up, my energy has gone up, my [[Third Eye|third eye]] is active, alive. But, about putting the Rudraksha in the hip and end of the hair, I will wait and see whether it became my experience, then, after that that I will wear. By the time you experience and put the Rudraksha everywhere, you have to go to the burial ground, hundred years will be over. Fools are those who wait for every instruction in Agama to become their experience and then they will start following. Then by that time; you come to your leg to put the Rudraksha at the feet, leg, your ankles, you may not even have the leg. You may be walking with somebody else leg. Listen carefully. The moment 10-20 instructions of Sadashiva has become My reality, I am not a fool to wait and reinvent the whole thing, and wasting My life for reinventing. Understand. ''<br />
<br />
''.. Don’t waste your time in waiting for the remaining every instruction to become your experience or reality. You neither have that strong logic, nor have that strong body, nor have that long life. Fools are those who wait for every instruction to become their reality. The moment, the power manifestation and [[Enlightenment]] has become My reality—I am not going to question, analyze, the other instructions of Sadashiva, about how to brush teeth, or how to apply [[vibhuti]], or how to take bath. I am going to fall head over heels, and practice everything He says, because every time if I bring up the neem stick and brush My teeth, just the memory that I am brushing as per His instruction, makes Me sweeter than the bitterness of the neem tree. That is Shaktinipata.<br />
Kailasha, under the huge Kalpavriksha— making Devi sit on His lap, holding Her hip with all the love and care—the way He thought Her to brush the teeth and take bath, I am exactly doing that. That is all I need to make My day. That is all I need to make the neem stick sweet. That is all I need to make My life, that is Shaktinipata. Understand. ''<br />
<br />
''Unmanifest powers in you manifest, when you follow the instructions of the Guru, without even waiting for logically to get convinced. Let those great fools wait to get logically convinced, it is middle class mentality. Waiting to get logically convinced about each instruction. Don’t be a middle class, be elite. ''<br />
<br />
''.. Elite means, he knows, my parents had right lifestyle—so I will inherit their whole knowledge. I will not be waiting for me to get beaten up every time. I know my parents know the best practices. I know Sadashiva knows the best practices. And He has given it as Agama, then why will I waste my life is a stupid way... When you know, logically, you don’t wait to get convinced and start moving just because He wants you to do—you are My inheritor. You are Elite. You are no more middle class. ''<br />
<br />
''See My Balasanths, they don’t wait to get convinced about My instruction, that's why they inherit what I have. If you wait to get convinced about every instruction, you are a devotee, outsider. If you just jump head over and heels, and start living—before I even complete the instruction, you are an insider, disciple, inheritor, you have the right to feel— Brahmanyam Bahuputrataam. ''<br />
<br />
''Whatever Arunagiri Yogiswara had, I never felt, He need to initiate Me, He need to give Me that. I just know, if He has it is mine. Just like how my Baalasants feel, “If Swamiji has it is mine.” They don’t feel, I need to initiate them I need to give it to them, if He is having, it is mine. … <br />
Understand. For the unmanifest to manifest in you, all you need is Shaktinipata— Shaktinipata means start living the instructions and initiations without waiting for your logic to get convinced,is Shaktinipata. The joy you experience, when you live, just because He said, that's it. That joy is called Shaktinipata. Understand. When I live my orthodox lifestyle, I just know, I am doing it because He said it, and that joy is Shaktinipata. That keeps me whole day and night, my whole life in Shaktinipata with Sadashiva. With that Shaktinipata, whether you pick up a stone, or clean the floor, or cook, and feed the devotees, or do wiring, or do book publishing, or stand there and give flyers to people— everything is Shaktinipata. Understand, life in the [[Sangha]] is Shaktinipata” - Paramahamsa Nithyananda ''<br />
<br />
==Four Deekshas to convert into Hinduism==<br />
<br />
{{#hsimg:1|272.108843537415| Ritual | http://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/teaser_images_news/2016-12dec-3rd-nithyananda-diary_DSC_1305_bengaluru-aadheenam-sadashivoham-day3-rudrabhishekam-swamiji.jpg?1481020550}}<br />
<br />
===Samaya Deeksha, Visesha Deeksha, Nirvana Deeksha and Acharya Abhisheka===<br />
There is this argument that one cannot officially convert into Hinduism since Hinduism is not a religion but a way of life. But this is not true. Sadashiva, in his Agamas, has clearly defined a set of initiations for someone who wants to officially become a Hindu. For Millenia these four Deekshas – Samaya [[Deeksha]], Visesha Deeksha, Nirvana Deeksha and Acharya Abhisheka – have been followed in the traditional Shaivite Mutts for anyone wanting to become a Hindu. In the past 10 years lakhs of non Indians have officially converted to Hinduism in the Nithyananda Adheenam in Bengaluru adopting Hindu names and following Hindu [[rituals]], lifestyle and worship.<br />
<br />
==Essence of Agamas - Sarvajnottarāgama==<br />
{{#hsimg:1|272.108843537415| Ritual | http://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2016-7july-4th-nithyananda-diary_IMG_7424_varanasi-aadheenam-kalbhairava-homa.jpg?1467783048 }}<br />
<br />
Mahadeva’s seat is called Sarvajna Peetha. The essence of everything He taught through the five faces – Satyojātam, Tatapurusham, Vamadevam, Aghoram, Ishanam; through all the five faces. Through four faces, he revealed four Vedas; through the fifth face, all the Agamas. The essence of all that is Sarvajnottarāgama, which he taught to Subramanya. <br />
<br />
In that, the essence of Sarvajnottarāgama is – reminding Subramanya the experience of [[Shivoham]]. Once Subramanya experiences that, He was made to sit in that seat of Sarvajna Peetha. This is why the Agama is called Sarvajnottarāgama. <br />
<br />
When you learn from the teacher, one quarter you learn; when you discuss among the friends, you learn the next 25%, when you ask him questions and get clarified, you learn the next 25%. Only when you start teaching, you learn the last 25%. So first 75% is done. Mahadeva taught to Subramanya, 25%. Subramanya discussed with his friends, 25%; Subramanya asked questions from Mahadeva, and learnt 25%. Now Subramanya has to teach and learn the last 25%. <br />
Mahadeva says, “Don’t waste time in finding a student; come on, sit. I will listen. I will learn from you, and get that next 25% also.” That is why in Swamimalai, Sadashiva becomes disciple. Sadashiva becomes a student, and Subramanya learns to teach and gets that last 25%, becomes perfect Jnana Skandagurnathan. He sat in the Sarvajna Peetha. <br />
<br />
The Agama beautifully describes, that Mahadeva had Subramanya on His right shoulder. When Subramanya was teaching, He suddenly moved him to the left shoulder. Subramanya asked, “Why, am I heavy?” He said, “No, I want your mother also to listen to you; because this side belongs to her. I want your mother to know how beautifully you are teaching. I heard enough, now I want your Mother to know how beautifully you are teaching, because the left belongs to her, Devi.”<br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Aanava&diff=12625Aanava2019-04-02T21:14:50Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>==Etymylogy==<br />
“Aanava” means, “feeling lower than what you are”. <br />
<br />
==Scriptural References== <br />
Following are the direct words of Bhagavan Sadashiva, expanding on His various Shaktis and His true essence, Sadashiva Tattva. His powers, Shaktis are His unique rays and non- different from Him. <br />
<br />
<br />
''Those who have reached the world of pure path (suddha adhva) through the appropriate initiation, Shaiva-sādhana based on knowledge, [[yoga]], experience various enjoyments which yield ultimate bliss (ananda). Upon the complete removal of the residue Aanava Mala, they attain the supreme state, tat padam [sāyujya]. Since they are wholly engrossed in the supreme bliss which is their own essential nature, they do not perform the Cosmic actions such as śristhi, etc. us, the nature of SADĀSHIVA TATTVA has been briefly explained to you <br />
~ Mrigendra Agama, Ch. 13, Adhva Prakarana, Descriptions of the Worlds, Verses 166-175 ''<br />
<br />
==Introduction==<br />
<br />
===Aanava - From Lower Inner Image to Sadashivatva===<br />
The word “Aanava”, we always have a wrong meaning. We portray Ravana, or Hiranya, Hiranyaksha, Kamsa, Sishubala, to portray “Aanava”. Of course, they are all embodiments of “Aanava”, no doubt, but not the context from which we will understand. <br />
<br />
You always think “Aanava” means showing more than what you are. But “Aanava” means, “feeling lower than what you are”. Only then you start showing more than what you are. Feeling belittled! There is a big difference between these two. If you understand “Aanava” as showing more than what you are, you will start doing completely wrong exercise, trying to show yourself as very humble. <br />
<br />
The moment you think, “this is the way I am what can I do,” You have become egoistic, the Aanava has started happening in you. You are not, this is the way you think you are. Listen. People come and tell me “What can I do Swamiji I have so many patterns I wanted to break but this is the way I am, no. You fantasize about breaking, never wanted to break. Fantasizing about [[completion]] and doing completion is totally different. You always fantasized about becoming new being, because you see the way the new beings radiate. You have an idea how it'll be— butterfly in the stomach rose in the heart, light in the eyes. You have an imagination, you have a fantasy, but you never worked for it. You never acted for it. <br />
<br />
Understand. Action manifest Shaktis. Acting towards what you want, manifest Shaktis. First thing you need to know, you are not a sealed, complete product as you imagine. No. You are a seed, means— you need to open up, sprouting need to happen, plant need to grow, the bio-memory, muscle memory with which you're programmed need to flower, the branches need to grow, the leaves need to come. “Ooh, I'm already old and tired how can anything more happen to me? How can anything new happen to me, where is the new life?” That is what I call Aanava , the moment you decide where is a new life for me, there's no new life, the Aanava surrounds you.<br />

<hr />
<div>==Etymology==<br />
“Aadhee” means ancient and “inam” means community or settlement. The very word Aadheenam means “the ancient community”.<br />
<br />
==Scriptural References==<br />
In [[Kamika Agama]], Sadashiva expands about his vision about Aadheenam. First introduced in Kamika Agama - 7th Chapter. In [[Karana]] Agama, He expands the exact definitions. <br />
<br />
It is a place for human settlement - not just human beings; living along with animals and nature. Around 47 components have to be there for a complete Aadheenam as per Sadashiva’s descriptions.<br />
<br />
Some of the components<br />
- There should be a large Goshala (Go Mandir). <br />
- All Aadheenams have to have animal husbandry.<br />
- 10% of the land should be water body. It can be flowing or stagnant.<br />
- A separate place for Brahmanas & Adi Shaivas. A separate place for Rudrakanyas. Separate place for Vidyarthis. Separate place for for Vaishyas. Separate place for Kshatriyas. Separate place for people who don’t want to be part of any structure, who disowned the grid - Chandalas. <br />
<br />
''This is the place where people live the State of Sadashiva, radiate the space & manifest the Powers of Sadashiva! If you made Aadheenam as per Sadashiva’s vision, it will literally be a Veda-Agamic city. If you make a city the way He talks, it will be a self-sustaining establishment. - H.H Paramahamsa Nithyananda''<br />
<br />
'' The modern day cities have nothing to do with original India, and Bharat, that is why so much mess, so much disturbance in nature and human consciousness. All ancient settlements - [[Kashi]], Kanchi, Madurai, Thiruvannamalai. - H.H Paramahamsa Nithyananda ''<br />
<br />
==Recent Findings==<br />
Research & excavation happening at Keezhadi - East of Madurai is establishing the age of Madurai to be 7 times the age any historian has predicted till now. In the series of Nithya Satsangs in Madurai Aadheenam, HDH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam had come to a prediction, and now the researchers are coming to the same conclusion. We will soon have more evidence how [[Meenakshi]] planned the whole city of Madurai as per Kamika Agama, and ran the whole city (administration) by Manu Neeti Shastra. <br />
<br />
The Shiva Leelarnava by Sri Neelakanta Deekhitacharya describes very clearly and elaborately, Kamika Agama was the spiritual scripture, Soma Sambhu Patati was the operational ritual manual, and Manu Neeti Shastra was the administrative law book. With the recent excavation, and carbon dating of everything discovered in Keezhadi, the timeline of Madurai is also now established. <br />
<br />
<br />
==Swamiji’s Vision==<br />
Whole settlement in Madurai was built as per Kamika Agama and the whole settlement lived a pure Shaivite life, celebrating Shaivism. Swamiji says, “It is time, and our [[responsibility]] to build modern day Veda-Agamic city, as per his guidance, as per His vision document.”<br />

<hr />
<div>You need to know and experience that there are more than four dimensions of the Universe, the four being length, breadth, [[depth]] and time. <br />
<br />
In the science of Sanatana Hindu Dharma, there are 11 dimensions of the Universe, which are elaborately described in the ancient scriptures. There are in fact, five unit dimensions which are length, breadth, depth, time and space.<br />
<br />
==Scriptural References==<br />
<br />
Shaastra Pramaana<br />
<br />
Vidya Pada - Mrigendra Agama <br />
<br />
śaktisandhāne śarīrotpattiḥ ॥ 1- 19 ॥<br />
<br />
Translation<br />
<br />
By aiming and fixing the self on Shakti, uniting in Oneness with the supreme power, the embodiment of that which is cognized and willed manifests at once in its length, breadth, depth, and time and space dimension.<br />
<br />
— Shiva Sutras, Sutra 1.19<br />
<br />
==The 11 Dimensions==<br />
<br />
*'''1. Length'''<br />
Length is everything connected to logic.<br />
<br />
*'''2.Breadth'''<br />
Breadth means dimension of creativity and visualisation.<br />
<br />
*'''3.Depth'''<br />
Depth can be briefly named as “Oneness”, Advaita.<br />
<br />
*'''4. Time'''<br />
<br />
*'''5.Space'''<br />
<br />
''Adding time and space and combining these 5 basic unit dimensions with each other leads to 11 dimensions of the Universe. The following are the various combinations:''<br />
<br />
*'''6.Length and breadth combined with time.'''<br />
*'''7.Length and breadth combined with space.'''<br />
*'''8.Breadth and depth combined with time.'''<br />
*'''9.Breadth and depth combined with space.'''<br />
*'''10.Length and depth combined with time and length'''<br />
*'''11.Depth combined with space.'''<br />
<br />
The truth and the powers which come with that are already tested and proven by the Balasanths, which are the children in my Nithyananda [[Gurukul]]. <br />
<br />
The Gurukul is the traditional Vedic school system, revived by me. The Balasanths are expressing different powers only by understanding and knowing these truths. So can you. I initiated my disciples who came to Sadashivoham into all 11 dimensions. Preparation included pure Satvik vegetarian food, Nithyananda [[Yoga]], and the [[alchemy]] products which the participants received. I can say, the initiation has been successful. The Balasanths and Sadashivoham participants express powers of length, breadth and depth dimensions.<br />
<br />
==Length Dimension==<br />
<br />
The length dimension is connected to logic. The power expresses by being able to answer questions about length and logic. The initiates are able to manifest powers of solving Math problems like extracting the root of high numbers in very short time. They are able to answer questions like the distance between Moon and Earth within seconds. They also answer questions about height of statues and buildings. They tell distances between places and length of roads or rivers, even of places they have never heard of.<br />
<br />
==Breadth Dimension==<br />
<br />
The breadth dimension is connected to creativity and visualisation. It is all about the emotion which comes up with poetry, art and music. I initiated the Balasants into breadth dimension. And now the Balasanths sing songs they never heard before. They draw pictures of famous art they have never seen before. They even draw pictures of obscure art that has never been shown in the gallery, just by hearing the name of the artist<br />
<br />
==Depth Dimension==<br />
<br />
After length and breadth dimension, I initiated them into depth dimension.This is the dimension in which you can express powers like Materialization, [[Teleportation]] and Telekinesis. The initiation also awakens the ability to read the [[Akashic Records|Akashic records]]. Depth dimension is experienced through Entanglement, experiencing Oneness.<br />
<br />
For eg, The Balasanths express Telekinesis by sitting and connecting with a coconut. Just through the power of will, either by staring, eye-movement, or waving their hands very casually, they direct its movement. They are able to make it roll, stand up straight and crack it open.<br />
<br />

<hr />
<div>The word Brahman used in the Upanishads, the word Bhagavān used in Puranas, or the word Sadāshiva used in [[Agamas]], cannot be translated as G-O-D used in western theologies. <br />
<br />
God does not equate to Brahman, Bhagavan, or Sadashiva, because the concept of God only includes three actions: Generation, Operation and Destruction (GOD). <br />
<br />
In the Vedic Tradition, the concept of Brahman, Bhagavan or Sadashiva also includes the actions of Delusion and Liberation (DL). <br />
<br />
Paramahamsa Nithyananda provides a new word: GODDL - in order to incorporate all five actions performed by Brahman, Sadashiva. <br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Unfortunately, the major two aspects of life (Delusion and Liberation) were never grasped anywhere else other than the Saraswati Ganges civilization. Only the Saraswati Ganges civilization understood the world beyond the SEEN. If you don’t understand delusion, you cannot understand beyond the 4 dimensions, you cannot understand reality in its [[completion]]. <br />
Whenever science or technology grows, the experts in that field contribute the right words. They support the language in order to explain the concepts. The English language is learning spirituality from Sanatana Hindu Dharma for the first time. So, Paramahamsa Nithyananda insists that GODDL should be the word, not God. <br />
These 5 aspects of Sadāshiva (Generation, Operation, Destruction, Delusion and Liberation) in the manifest form is called Ishvara. There is also the Avyakta, unmanifest component. <br />
<br />
==Understanding Jeeva-Ishvara-Jagat==<br />
(Insert Chart)<br />
The 25 states of consciousness an individual (Jeeva) goes through, the 11 dimensions of the Universe (Jagat), and the 5 aspects of Supreme (Ishvara - GODDL), all these three, when they are not understood, forms the [[Maya Matrix]] in which you are caught. If you understand, you will have the knowledge and the power to play with them. Knowledge brings power to play with them. <br />
Understanding this Maya Matrix experientially and realizing the State of Sadāshiva – that you are source of this Maya Matrix, experiencing the state of Sadāshiva, expressing the expressions, state and manifesting the powers of Sadāshiva is the purpose of Sadashivoham.<br />
<br />
''“The knowledge and understanding of these 11 dimensions, even if it is only intellectual and not experiential, makes redundant much of the suffering caused to you by others, and also the suffering you cause to others. Only a person who understands the 11 dimensions of the Universe can live a life of ahimsa, true non-violence.” - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
==The Concept of GODDL in our Life==<br />
<br />
We manifest all these five powers of Sadashiva everyday - Creation, sustenance, destruction, delusion, and liberation. The manifest and unmanifest components of Sadashiva is part of all of us. <br />
<br />
==Bring [[Integrity]] to Your Creation== <br />
When you feel like doing something active, it belongs to creation, and you being in the creation mode. It can be as simple as cooking to as complicated as manifesting [[wealth]]. It can be as lower as you think; sexual desires, or it can be as high as higher, as creating your [[Enlightenment]]. <br />
<br />
Any creation, including manifesting powers, add Integrity to it. Only from Satya, anything can be born, Jāta means born. The creation face of Sadashiva is Sadyojata in all your creativity. Anything born out of Satya( Integrity) will stay forever and do good to you. Anything which is born out of Integrity, only will stand forever. <br />
<br />
You all have that creation mood in you, that is Aham. When you add Integrity to it you will become Sadā[[shivoham]], in your creativity. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
When you are in the mode of creation, if you add Integrity, you will manifest Sadāshiva’s creation. Your creativity plus integrity is Sadāshiva’s creation energy, is Sadyojata. <br />
<br />
==Bring Authenticity to your Sustenance==<br />
Bring [[Authenticity]] to your maintenance and sustenance. Anything which loses Authenticity, starts collapsing, and it needs to collapse. The earlier it collapses, it is good for the humanity. Anything which loses its Authenticity—it is time for it to vacate the planet earth, and the Existence. <br />
<br />
Anything which retains its Authenticity continuous to exist forever. If you want anything to be alive, just retain its Authenticity; everything else will be taken care. <br />
<br />
''“When I was attacked, the only thing I decided, “I will keep the Authenticity of Me and my [[Sangha]], that's it, that’s it.” The moment I decided I will keep the Authenticity of Me and my Sangha alive. I know, it cannot be destroyed, it cannot be destroyed. Authenticity, in all your sustenance, bring Authenticity, in all your sustenance, bring Authenticity.” - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
==Bring Responsibility to Your Destruction==<br />
Whenever you are in a destructive mood, bring [[Responsibility]]. <br />
<br />
f you feel responsible and destroy, you will never destroy what should not be destroyed. You will always destroy what need to be destroyed immediately. With Responsibility, destruction will be equal to rejuvenation, not just destruction. <br />
<br />
Irresponsibility leads to tantrum throwing rioting destruction. But with responsibility, it may look like [[Kalabhairava]] and Kali running riot on the Cosmos; but they know precisely where to put the leg, and where to put the hand, where to put the sword. It is too precise. The precision is not even one cell; this side, or that side. It’s more precise than any laser surgery. Kalabhairava’s Trishul maybe as huge as Merudanda, the Meru Hill, but it is as precise as non-invasive surgeries. Kalabhairava’s Trishul is that precise because it feels responsible. <br />
Whenever you are in the destruction mood—anger, violence, frustration - bring Responsibility to you. Look in, “Are I behaving responsibly?” <br />
Whether you started the war or somebody else started the war on you—bring Responsibility during the moments of destruction. You will see, right things will be protected, wrong things will be destroyed. The whole destruction will happen properly. <br />
<br />
The moment you bring Responsibility to your destructive mood, your tantrum throwing mood, your rioting mood, you will become Aghora, Sadashiva’s destruction face. You are no more Aham destroying. You are Sadashivoham destroying. <br />
<br />
==Bring Enriching to Delusion and Confusion==<br />
Whenever you are in delusion, you are confused, you don’t know what to do, what kind of decisions you should make, what will be right at this moment, for your life. Whenever you are in that delusion, Tirobhava —just throw yourself away. And decide, your life is for others. <br />
<br />
Once there is something rotten, whether it is Kashmir apple, or California orange, it is useless. Once it is rotten you can’t say, “Oh Kashmir apple, California orange.”<br />
[[Depression]], delusion means, 99% of your part has become gotten rotten. Now, the only way to get rid of it; start living for others, [[Enriching]]. You are already rotten. If you build your mind, your life on you, it will be stinking. Forget about you, start living for others. Enriching is the only solution. <br />
<br />
When you are in the mood of the delusion, decide, “Life is for others,” make all the decisions based on Enriching, life is for others. Change the place you are living. Change the people with whom you are living, change the profession you are in. If you don’t, you will be stuck and wasting the life forever. <br />
<br />
==Bring Causing to Your Liberating Mood==<br />
When you are in the mood of liberating love. Liberation means, love, care, compassion. Everyday you go through this mood of liberation. <br />
Love, compassion, bliss, whenever you go through that, bring [[Causing]] to your life. Causing means, making every being experience [[Shaktipada]] with Sadashiva is Causing. That is the biggest liberation you can give for human beings. Make people experience Shaktipada with Sadashiva. <br />
<br />
The sixth dimension of Sadashiva is unmanifest. You also have the unmanifest power, means the powers of Sadashiva. <br />
<br />
To manifests Sadashiva’s creativity, bring Integrity. To manifest Sadashiva’s sustenance energy bring Authenticity. To manifest Sadashiva’s destruction energy bring Responsibility, to manifest Sadashiva’s delusion energy and handle it, bring Enriching in your life. To manifest Sadashiva’s liberation energy, liberating energy, bring Causing in your life. Then what will make you manifest the unmanifest, Avyakta of Sadashiva, that is Shaktinipata. As much as possible, be in Shaktipata with Sadashiva, the Guru, who is embodiment of Sadashiva. Be in Shaktipata with Him. Being part of the Sangha, is nothing but being constantly being in Shaktipata with Guru, Sadashiva Himself. <br />
<br />
Bring all these six in your life, add more and more, you will be adding more and more of Sadāshivoham in you. Let Avyakta become Vyakta, unmanifest, become manifest. It is direct message from Sadashiva, from the space of Sadashiva, from the place of Sadashiva to everyone of you, who are literally Sadāshivas. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam<br />

<div>''“Thinking within the box is bondage. ''<br />
''Thinking outside the box is choices. ''<br />
''Breaking the box is creativity. ''<br />
''Box is a hoax is Freedom.”''<br />
''- Paramahamsa Nithyananda on Geometry of choices & Geometry of freedom ''<br />
<br />
''"Freedom that doesn't depend on any external circumstance is the only true freedom."''<br />
<br />
==Etymylogy==<br />
Svatantra, means the technique, method to handle yourself. Sva.-tantra. Sva means self; tantra means technique, ability to handle. If you are able to handle, you have Svatantra. If you are able to handle, you have freedom. Only if you are able to handle yourself you have freedom.<br />
<br />
==Introduction==<br />
<br />
Freedom, for which almost the whole world gives its life.If you just look inside the human consciousness, the very flow of human consciousness is towards freedom. If you see the history of all civilisations, all the expression is always towards freedom. <br />
<br />
Whatever they thought as freedom, they were always putting their energy in that direction.<br />
<br />
For example: Money – Why do you think so much of desire for [[wealth]] in the world? Because with money you have more choices. <br />
<br />
You experience a glimpse of freedom with money. Without money you have only one suffering. With money you have many suffering between which you can choose.<br />
<br />
Whether it is our running behind money, or political freedom or social freedom whatever you may call it with different names. But finally human consciousness constantly expands towards freedom. <br />
<br />
If you think political freedom is the ultimate, you start moving towards political freedom. If a society thinks social freedom is the ultimate, they start move towards social freedom. If you think economical freedom is the ultimate, you start working for economic freedom. Whatever you consider as a freedom, you start working towards it. You start traveling towards it.<br />
<br />
==Choices are not Freedom==<br />
We spend our life so far pursuing "freedom." But how FREE do we really feel? Even in some area of your life we may feel somewhat free but in other areas if we are still feeling tied down or suffocation then that is NOT freedom!<br />
<br />
If freedom is all about having more choices, (like society leads us to believe), then why is the world more stressed, depressed and violent than ever before?<br />
<br />
For Example: So Called "Freedom" with Food:<br />
When we live in a society where the food is poisoned and chemically altered, the water is fluoridated, even though we have so many "choices" we don't even have the basic FREEDOM to eat as per the natural needs of our bodies. <br />
<br />
But real freedom is being able to freely eat as per your goals - such as the goal of being healthy. We have been wrongly led to believe that freedom means choices to eat whatever we want, and consumeristic society encourages these "choices". And these choices we are surrounded with to make us feel free in the area of food and health, is actually controlling us! <br />
Same way in our love, relationships, success, career, etc... we are misled and taught that having many choices is freedom. It is NOT! <br />
<br />
The sea of choices is marketed as freedom.<br />
<br />
==What is REAL freedom?==<br />
When you understand what is your real freedom, you can look beyond the "choices" and have the freedom to live as per your real GOALS! <br />
<br />
==Svatantra - The Real Freedom==<br />
Multiple choices are not freedom. Your ability to choose and take [[responsibility]] for what you have chosen, that is freedom. <br />
<br />
In Sanskrit: in Sanskrit we have a beautiful word, Svatantra, means the technique, method to handle yourself. Sva.-tantra. Sva means self; tantra means technique, ability to handle. If you are able to handle, you have Svatantra. If you are able to handle, you have freedom. If not, you are free dumb, free dumb. You don’t have freedom, you have free dumb! Only choices means ‘free dumb’. <br />
<br />
Only if you are able to handle yourself you have freedom. I tell you, anything which can be enjoyed, experienced with these five senses is not going to help you to get out of freedom. Start exploring 11 dimensions of consciousness. Start exploring 25 states of consciousness. Start exploring multi-dimensions of universe. Start exploring various aspects and powers and powerful cognitions of consciousness. I tell you that is only going to make you engage with life. Understand, if you are engaging only with limited things, you are encaging. You are not engaging, you are encaged. <br />
<br />
Only if you are engaged with larger dimensions of life, understand, not larger quantity of items, larger quality of life, larger dimensions of life, you will experience life as a celebration. I tell you, nothing is going to be more inspiring in the future anymore other than exploring consciousness and [[enlightenment]], exploring consciousness and enlightenment. Nothing else. Nothing else. Nothing else. If you are not exploring your consciousness, no other way, you will be imploding in boredom.<br />

<div>==Technique to Detoxify the Third-Eye==<br />
<br />
In 1990’s, coupled with the protection of a fake scientific experiment, governments around the world introduced fluoride to drinking water reservoirs in an attempt to increase dental health. <br />
<br />
Today, in India, fluorosis affects more than 66 million people. Six million of them are children under the age of 14 years. It turns out to be the most widespread geochemical disease in India. In other studies, fluoride has been classified as a neurotoxin, placed among well known poisons like arsenic, lead and mercury. <br />
<br />
Fluoride has been associated with the “pandemic of developmental neurotoxicity”. Children have had more cognitive impairments since the addition of fluoride in drinking and bathing water than before. While these facts are put aside, fluoride is still popularized as a key to dental strength on most teeth products. Dentists mongering for money without paying attention to recent evidence are blindly backing the continuation of the circulation of this poison within our bodies and the market as well. Fluoride’s effects are so damaging a real cure is needed to reclaim the [[Third Eye]]. <br />
<br />
==Technique to Cleanses the Third Eye from Fluoridation==<br />
<br />
[[Turmeric]] is a powerful antidote for the neurotoxin fluoride. Fluoride and turmeric can both enter the system through the skin. For example, one doesn’t necessarily have to drink fluoridated water for it get into the system. Even if they take a bath in fluoridated water, the fluoride can enter into the system. Similarly, turmeric possesses the same quality. It enters through the skin. Up to 40% of the turmeric placed on the skin enters the system when rubbed. It is a great way to detoxify fluoride that may be blocking the Third Eye. <br />
<br />
For people who have been initiated into Third Eye reading and have not had any success, this is a powerful method to awaken the potential of the Third Eye. For people who are yet to receive initiation, this is a great method to ensure that you will be able to use the potential of the Third Eye to its peak, after its awakening. However, it must be rubbed on the skin. Turmeric taken orally will only heal the ulcers of the intestine, but the turmeric rubbed on the skin will be the antidote for fluoride. <br />
<br />
The Technique:<br />
1. Wash your face. Nicely apply turmeric on the whole forehead. Put a large amount of [[kumkum]] (processed turmeric) on the whole area which you think is Third Eye. <br />
2. Lie down with the head supported. With a nice pillow, lie down. All the techniques related to Third Eye, if you fall asleep while doing it, it’s not wrong, because the power of the Third Eye is such that you can never fall asleep. You can only fall into a state between dream and waking state. That’s the law of Third Eye. <br />
3. Just put your awareness on the Third Eye region and see how the turmeric is getting penetrated. What is the turmeric and kumkum doing on your Third Eye? That’s all. “Very simple technique. Do it for 42 minutes. Lie down for 42 minutes and observe what that turmeric and kumkum is doing on your Third Eye. It will actually penetrate your skin and it will start activating your Third Eye.” <br />
<br />
==Awakening the Third-Eye==<br />
In the regular life in India, people apply kumkum (processed turmeric herb), [[bhasma]] ([[Sacred Ash|sacred ash]]) and fresh turmeric paste on their forehead as a technique to work on the Third Eye. They bring constant awareness to it. This is because for the Third Eye, attention is food. If one starts giving attention to the Third Eye, it will be awakened. It will start expressing energy. The following is an extremely powerful technique, most effective when practiced in the presence of the Guru or in front of His picture where He is wearing the kumkum (the red dot). <br />
<br />
==Meditation for Third Eye Awakening==<br />
“Sit in a comfortable position with your head, neck and spine in a straight line. Relax and take a few deep breaths. <br />
<br />
*Step 1 (with open eyes) <br />
Duration: 5 minutes <br />
Bring your attention to the area in between your eyebrows. Visualize that your Third Eye is open; you are looking through the Third Eye. It may be a little difficult at first, but you will get it in a few minutes. <br />
<br />
*Step 2 (with closed eyes) <br />
Duration: 3 minutes <br />
Close your eyes and visualize an intense golden light entering into your body from the sky. The light is entering your head and getting centered, functioning, active on your Third Eye. <br />
<br />
*Step 3 (with open eyes) <br />
Duration: 3 minutes <br />
Now, with open eyes, look through your Third Eye at my Third Eye, the spot where I am wearing the kumkum, the red dot. Continue to gaze at my Third Eye through your Third Eye. Visualize that you have a red color hole between your eyebrows and intensely look at my Third Eye. <br />
<br />
*Step 4 Finally, relax. Close your eyes. If you wish, you can rest wherever you are sitting.”<br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Fear&diff=12613Fear2019-04-02T21:12:44Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>Everything in your inner space, which does not allow you to manifest Sadā[[shivoham]] is fear.<br />
<br />
==Art of Facing Your Fears==<br />
<br />
===Everyone Wants A Fear-Free Life!===<br />
<br />
Fear is the running thread of the lives of most people. Without realizing, most people are only operating from fear or greed in every big and small decision of their lives. Be it the fear of losing their job, their [[wealth]], their reputation, their girlfriend, or the fear of public speaking, most decisions taken by people are taken from fear. Unfortunately, people go on taking decisions based on fear because they do not know how to go beyond fear. No one wants to have fear, but they don’t know how to let go of the fears they are already having.<br />
<br />
===The “Yes” And “No” Loop===<br />
In an effort to let go of the fear, there is a continuous struggle inside. The struggle is the conflict between saying a “Yes” and a “No” to the fear. For example, the fear of losing wealth. When someone faces that fear, they don’t need to start believing that they will lose all their wealth one day, but that is what they do. In an attempt to face the fear, people argue with themselves. They tell themselves, “Alright, now I lost my wealth, now what can be done? Let me face what happens when I lose my wealth.” Then, one part of them feels convinced that they really will lose their wealth, and immediately, they argue back, saying, “No, no! How can I live like this? What is this? Why am I thinking all this?” So now, they are caught between whether they are going to accept that they are going to lose the wealth one day, or to just suppress the fear and tell themselves, “No, I am not going to lose! I am not going to lose! I am not going to lose!” Even when they say that they are not going to lose the wealth, their own hearts do not completely believe it. They are caught in an endless loop of “Yes” and “No”!<br />
<br />
===Find The Root Of The Fear===<br />
In actuality, every fear has a root, a beginning. No one is born with their fears. They pick it up during the course of their lives. To go beyond any fear, the root of the fear needs to be found. The fear does not have to be denied or accepted, but rather, its root needs to be dug out. Once the person becomes aware of the root of the fear, he needs to complete with that root incident.<br />
<br />
For example, for someone having a fear of public speaking, they need to trace back when was the first time they experienced the fear, or when was the first time they had an unpleasant experience with public speaking. In reality, the fear of public speaking is nothing but the fear of talking to one’s own self. So, when the root incident of when the fear started is found, the person needs to complete with that incident, and with his own self. This will heal and remove the fear from him. No arguments about the fear will arise, because the fear itself will lose its power over the person.<br />
<br />
===Integrity, The Key===<br />
Sometimes, people keep struggling with their fears without being able to find the root of the fears. To be able to go to the root of a fear, [[integrity]] in thinking is a must. When someone thinks with integrity, they are able to catch the thoughts that cross their mind, and hence, catch the original incidents of when a fear started. Integrity brings awareness in the entire thinking process. Otherwise, the mind is just a football being tossed around from one thought to the other.<br />
With integrity in thinking, the root of every fear can be found. Once completed, the person not only becomes free of the fear, he can also help others overcome their fears!<br />
<br />
==Melt Fears, go beyond Maya Matrix==<br />
Any powerlessness which stops you radiating Sadashivoham is fear. It can be in a form of withdrawal, giving up, guilt, negative visualizations, negative expectations, negating the possibilities. It can be manifesting in any form. It can have multiple expressions.<br />
<br />
*1- negating life<br />
*2 - negative visualizations<br />
<br />
If somebody says, “Good is going to happen to you,” the way you perceive and fastness with which you visualize that and if somebody says, “Something wrong is going to happen to you,” and the way you perceive and the way you visualize that. <br />
<br />
If some wrong is predicted, you work 10000 times and overwork, do extra time and visualize that and taste that. That is the worst thing. Nicely sit and chew like a sugar cane. <br />
<br />
If somebody says, “Some good is going to happen,” say, “Okay, let’s see when it comes.” When somebody says, “Some bad is going to happen” - You are ready! You are all ready to receive it. If it does not come, you will feel cheated, so let me create it. See after preparing so much if it doesn’t come, what to do? You’ll feel cheated. So you don’t want to feel cheated, so you yourself manifest it. <br />
<br />
The negative visualization, guilt, hatred towards yourself and others, hatred towards certain system, anger of your inability, all these are fear only. All these are various fruit, flower, stem of fear. But fear is the root on which all this grows. <br />
<br />
It can be about your identity, it can be about your wealth, it can even about your name and fame, it can be about your health, it can be about your mental health, it can be about anything, ultimately it can be just unknown. <br />
<br />
You don’t know, you are afraid but you don’t know why? And the worst thing, last thing is FEAR of fears. Fear that you will get into fear. You know you are afraid of snake, but you cannot avoid clicking on the Facebook... video comes - a snake swallowing a elephant or a snake swallowing a lion. You know you are afraid of snake. Even if you see the video two days, you will be seeing that in your dream. You will be having nightmare, but you can’t miss clicking that. You will not even click in the center, you will only press the side because even the snake’s mouth, you don’t want to touch on the screen. Desire to swallow fear, desire to swallow powerlessness—that is what I call chewing like a sugar cane. How the village boys chew the sugar cane, like that chewing the fear. <br />
<br />
Everything in your inner space, which does not allow you to manifest Sadāshivoham is fear.<br />
<br />
It is like an undigested material in your bio-memory. In your muscles, if something is not digested, becomes part of your muscles, it will become cancerous. <br />
<br />
In your bio-memory, if something is not digested and stays back, it becomes fear. <br />
<br />
Reduction of bad cholesterol in your body and your health are directly proportional to each other. Reduction of fears in your system and your [[Enlightenment]] is directly proportional. <br />
<br />
Understand. How the reduction of bad cholesterol and your health is directly proportional to each other, same way of fears and manifestation of Sadāshivoham is directly proportional to each other, because the cholesterol does not stop on the extra tire around you, your waist, it sits there and spoils everything. <br />
<br />
Life sits in Ananda Gandha and makes everything positive; like Guru sits in one place, but clears the ignorance and raises people all the world.<br />
<br />
Negative fellows sit in one side and create disturbance everywhere, like a….they sit in one place and send virus’ all over internet. Same way cholesterol will sit on your stomach but sends disturbances to all organs of your system. <br />
<br />
You need to understand. Fear - you may be thinking is only in one corner but it doesn’t keep quiet. It interferes in everything. That is reason I am saying – reduction of the cholesterol is directly proportionate to your health, bad cholesterol. Reduction of fears is directly proportionate to your manifestation of Sadāshivoham. <br />
<br />
Everything under Matrix only can create fear in you. Anything above Matrix cannot create fear in you. Something which is beyond Matrix may not be attractive towards you, to your mind as of now, but understand that can never generate any fear. <br />
<br />
I wanted to tell you one important thing, be rest assured, even if you think you are under the Matrix, ultimately there is a space in you which cannot be bound by any Matrix, that is Sadāshivoham. Ultimately He does not give up on you. <br />
<br />
When you melt down the fears, when you melt down the fears, you will understand what I am saying. When you melt down the fears, you will understand what I am saying. Today let’s melt down the fears. I will switch on My heater. Let the fears melt down. It’s time to melt down the core fears. We will start working in layers and layers of fears and ultimately fear of death. Today you are all going to go through the process of going beyond death.<br />
<br />
==How to Overcome Fear==<br />
<br />
===Witnessing and acceptance===<br />
When you are faced with fear, don’t try to resist it or suppress it. Just look at the fear, note the fear and accept it. Acceptance of the fear dissolves the fear. Allow the fear to shake you. If your body trembles, let it tremble. If your eyes water, let the tears come. Just be like a blade of grass in the wind, bending without resistance.<br />
<br />
A small story:<br />
On a dark night, a man was walking on a narrow path. Suddenly, his foot hit a rock and he stumbled and slipped down. He managed to catch hold of a branch hanging over the rock. It was completely dark. The man tightly held onto the branch. He shouted for help but the only response was his voice echoing back. Hearing the echo, the man was terrified that he might be at the mouth of a huge abyss. <br />
<br />
The night seemed endless and the man was desperately holding on, hoping he could get some help. Finally dawn arrived. The man looked down to see how deep the abyss was, but there was no abyss; just two feet down was a big rock! <br />
Your fears are exactly like his, you think it is an abyss but it is actually just a few feet. If you can face your fears, you see they have no [[depth]]. Because you magnify the fears, you imagine them to be an abyss. It is your choice – to let go of the branch and the fear, or to keep clinging onto it and torturing yourself.<br />
<br />
Acceptance is the only way to conquer inevitable things. When you accept, suddenly you see the fear disappears. The moment you accept, fear loses its power to frighten you. When you don’t fight with it, you will see fear as deep peace. When the fear stroke happens, just live it. That is the only way.<br />
<br />
When you have an object connected to fear, accept it. That acceptance transforms. The more you fight, the more you empower fear. Diverting your attention away from the fear is also not the way because then the fear still remains with you. It does not mean that you are out of fear.<br />
<br />
Allow the fear to take over itself. Go into the fear two to three times. Live the fear intensely without any reservations. Suddenly you will find that it doesn’t touch you anymore! <br />
<br />
==Anger, the active form of fear==<br />
Fear is the passive form of the energy while anger is the active expression. <br />
Fear is what leads to anger. Fear is the passive form of the energy while anger is the active expression.<br />
<br />
<br />
A small story:<br />
A man rushed into the post office very angrily with a bunch of papers in hand, saying, ‘How dare they send me threatening letters like this!’ The official at the post office said, ‘Yes, sending threatening letters is a legal offense. Do you know who has been sending you these letters?’<br />
The man shouted back, ‘Of course, I do! It is the Income Tax people!’<br />
“You just need to be aware of yourself and witness how the emotions subtly change from one form to another.”<br />
<br />
<br />
When you are angry, just look into the anger. At the root of it, you will find a deep fear. Try this for yourself: if you are feeling fear, express anger at that time. Throw your hands, stamp your feet and express the energy. You will see that the fear disappears. You will see for yourself how fear can simply transform to anger. Similarly, fear can also transform to hate. You just need to be aware of yourself and witness how the emotions subtly change from one form to another. When you understand this play, you can easily get out of the game. <br />
<br />
==All Fears are Ultimately Fear of Death==<br />
All our fears, be it fear of losing physical health, mental stability, wealth, name and fame, or loved ones, are actually fear of death under various disguises.<br />
<br />
A small story:<br />
A man had prepared thoroughly to deliver a speech at a public function. He suddenly went blank when he stepped on stage and took the microphone in hand. He was gripped by stage fright! He just stood speechless in front of the huge crowd for a few minutes.<br />
Then suddenly, after some time, he said, ‘The human mind is the most amazing thing in this world. It starts working from the moment you are born and never stops working until the moment you die – except when you have to make a speech!’<br />
<br />
The social fear or fear of being rejected by society makes us do things to please society, even when it is not good for us. In this process, many times, we sacrifice what our being really wants to do. <br />
<br />
That fear of not being accepted by society is just another form of the fear of death. It is the death of the ego. Every act of ours is unconsciously related to death and the fear of dying. Understanding death can change your entire perception of life. It can simply transform the way you handle all your fears. <br />
<br />
==Meditation Technique on Death ==<br />
All mystical traditions on the planet Earth use this technique of meditation on death.<br />
<br />
Focus on fire rising through your form, from the toes up, until the body burns to ashes, but not YOU.<br />
<br />
Katopanishad (sacred Vedic text) describes this technique wonderfully. I can say that the most used technique in Vedanta for enlightenment is this death meditation. Everybody, before taking sannyas, has to go through this technique. In Buddhism, anybody who is initiated into sannyas has to first go and sit in the graveyard for three months, continuously facing the dead bodies being burnt, while visualizing that he is also being burnt.<br />
<br />
During my parivrajaka (spiritual wandering), I personally had this experience in [[Varanasi]] at [[Manikarnika Ghat]], where they burn 300 bodies per day! When you continuously see this happening, you actually lose respect for death. Now you have too much respect, too many ideas about it. It is nothing! The breath which went inside did not come out. That’s all!<br />
<br />
When I saw the bodies being burnt continuously, the little fear which was there initially disappeared and slowly, it became interesting. I began to go near and helped them. I started to think, “After all this body is also going to become like this. Yes. Over! Oh, God. Yes, in the same way this body is also going to burn. Let it happen.” That click opened up a deep fear of death which spread all over the body.<br />
<br />
When the fear met my awareness, it became a death experience. I faced it consciously and could see the fear very clearly. Understand, whenever your fear is suppressed, it stays inside you as suppressed fear. When it comes out and you are not facing it consciously, it becomes a fear stroke, shakes and breaks your whole nervous system – you experience a nervous breakdown. If it is faced consciously, it becomes a death experience. I was able to see very clearly the body is dead. It was not moving.<br />
Two and a half days – no food, no water, no thought, no questions. I could see with closed eyes that the body was dead and without movement. Suddenly that deep click and clarity happened – ‘The body is dead, but I still exist. I am here.’ Slowly I opened the eyes and was able to move the body. The first thing I felt was such a deep ecstasy, joy, gratitude – bliss! I knew I would not be alive any more as I thought, because the fear of death left once for all. I can say this is one of the very strong experiences that transformed me towards my enlightenment, towards the ultimate, spiritual truth.<br />

==Meditation techniques to face your fears==<br />
Physiologically and psychologically, this meditation will transform your life. This technique is not only for healing, but it can also directly open you to deeper and deeper levels of consciousness, to enlightenment.<br />
<br />
===Hamsa Mantra===<br />
This is a very powerful technique that can be used twenty-four hours a day. Whenever you are attacked by fear, just sit back and relax. Put your awareness only on your exhaling breath. Repeat the word ‘sah’ silently as you exhale, that is, with the outgoing breath. Exhaling is like relaxing and letting go anything that can die. While inhaling you will be constantly trying to hold on to something. Exhaling is like letting go. Focus on exhaling without bothering about inhaling. When you inhale, repeat ‘ham’ silently.<br />
<br />
Place more awareness and energy on the exhalation. Help yourself exhale deeper. Let the inhalation happen automatically through the body. Place your energy, attention and effort only on exhaling.<br />
<br />
It is a silent intonation of ‘ham…sah…., ham…sah’. Silent intonation of this hamsa mantra* will suddenly take you into the awareness, the relaxation, that never dies. Whatever can die will leave your system, your inner space.<br />
<br />
This technique can also be practiced at other times when you are not faced by fear, while you are sitting, talking, walking, eating, even while you are sleeping. It is a very powerful technique. Constantly, all twenty four hours, place your attention on exhaling and just intone the hamsa mantra* silently as ‘hamsah’, ‘hamsah’, ‘hamsah’. When you inhale, intone ‘ham’ and when you exhale, intone ‘sah’.<br />
<br />
Understand, when constantly intoning this mantra, it will become ajapa japa * or chanting without effort. Chanting with effort is called japa. Chanting without effort is ajapa*. It means that which goes on automatically in you. You just need to intone, that’s all. Fall in tune, that’s all. The whole day it will be resounding within you.<br />
<br />
Whatever can die will leave your system, and you will realize that whatever can die can never be part of you. If you are identifying yourself with something that can die, that identification will be disconnected and you will be unclutched.<br />
<br />
Whatever can never die, you will feel connected to that. Whatever cannot die is your very being. You will realize you are that which can never die, that which we call the Truth, enlightenment, Consciousness. If the intonation of the hamsa mantra* becomes ajapa* in you, you become a Paramahamsa*!<br />
<br />
Try this technique for just three days. Whenever you remember, inhale with the silent intonation, ‘ham’. Exhale with the silent intonation, ‘sah’. Let your awareness be more on the exhalation. You will suddenly see that the fear of losing your wealth, parts of your body or your health, or your near and dear ones, or the fear of unknown and all the fears will disappear.<br />
<br />
When your awareness is on exhaling, whatever is occupying your inner space as a part of you that can die, will simply leave your inner space. You will be liberated.<br />
<br />
===Darkness meditation===<br />
We are born out of darkness, the darkness that exists in the mother’s womb. Darkness is not negative as we usually think. It is intense healing. It is a motherly, positive energy.<br />
The darkness that exists in your mother’s womb is an intense energy. It is not the empty darkness of the graveyard. It is the Whole, the energy from which you came. The darkness existing in your mother’s womb is the energy from which your body was created. It is called the causal body, the [[karana]] sharira*. The darkness is the root cause for your body. Not only that, even the sky or the space is intense darkness. Space is not intense light but intense darkness.<br />
<br />
The vedic scriptures say that at the beginning of creation, darkness was covered by darkness. That is the beginning, the source.<br />
<br />
Darkness is the infinite base. When you board a flight and look outside the window at night, you can understand what I mean. The space is darkness. Darkness is the only thing that is. Anything else that is added comes and goes. Understand, darkness is not negative as you have been taught. Most of us are taught darkness is death, the emptiness that happens after your death. You never realize the emptiness that existed before your birth is also darkness! Now change the understanding. Darkness is not the emptiness that happens after your death. Darkness is the fulfillment, the creative energy before your birth, from which you took birth. This clarity can make you feel connected to darkness.<br />
You need to first understand about darkness with more clarity and more positive understanding, only then you can do this meditation. If you are afraid of darkness, you can’t enter into this meditation.<br />
<br />
This technique can heal four things: chronic fatigue, insomnia, oversleeping and depression. All these can be straightaway addressed and healed just by this single technique.<br />
<br />
'''Instructions: '''<br />
Total Duration: 25 minutes<br />
Close your eyes and sit. We all know how to close our eyelids but not our eyes. Closing the eyes means to completely stop seeing inside, behind the eyelids also. Usually when you close your eyes, you start seeing many things inside you. The inner television will never be switched off, it constantly goes on!<br />
<br />
Now close your eyes and completely stop seeing inside. Turn off the inner television!<br />
<br />
Then you will see the intense darkness from which you were born, the darkness in your mother’s womb, the same darkness that you still carry in your inner space. Out of the same space energy in your mother’s womb, the whole world has emerged. You came out of one bit of space energy from your mother’s womb. When you came out from your mother’s womb, you had already imbibed that darkness, that space energy, into your own inner space.<br />
<br />
If you close your eyes and stop seeing things inside, you will see intense darkness. Just be with the intense darkness for at least twenty minutes. If your mind wanders, just come back and get centered. Be with the darkness.<br />
<br />
After twenty minutes, open your eyes and bring the same darkness outside for five minutes. With your eyes open, see the same scenes that you saw in the darkness. See the same thing with intensity. This may take up to a month of practice. But if you can see the same darkness inside and outside, you will see you are able to switch off your mind whenever you wish!<br />
<br />
Understand, the ability to switch off your mind whenever you wish liberates you from all problems, all disorders related to the mind, whether it is insomnia, oversleeping, chronic fatigue or depression. All these things are related to the causal body or the fifth energy body in us. All diseases related to the causal body will be completely healed once you enter into the deep darkness inside and outside.<br />
<br />
Physiologically and psychologically, this meditation will transform your life. This technique is not only for healing, but it can also directly open you to deeper and deeper levels of consciousness, to enlightenment.<br />
<br />
===Awareness of swadhisthana chakra===<br />
<br />
Step 1: <br />
Remember the swadhisthana. Be aware intensely of the being center, two inches below the navel. Intensely chant the hoo kara* by producing the sound hoo, through the mouth as you exhale as loudly and as long as possible. This will create a vibration effect around your mouth. Allow any fear that comes up to come up. If you are trembling or shaking or feeling disturbed, it is ok. Intensely chant the hoo kara* mantra.<br />
<br />
Step 2: Relax in the being center. Pure greed is intense bliss or excitement. Pure fear is intense peace. Through bliss, you can achieve. Through peace also, you can achieve. Relax into the peace, and you will see that you are completely alive!<br />
<br />
* [[Hamsa Mantra|Hamsa mantra]] – Also called soham mantra, it is practised by silently intoning ‘hmmm’ while inhaling and ‘sssaaa’ while exhaling.<br />
* Ajapa japa – Chanting a sacred chant involuntarily.<br />
* Paramahamsa – Supreme Swan, title bestowed on enlightened beings.<br />
* Karana sharira – Causal layer, the fifth energy layer in us, corresponding to deep sleep. The source of conditioned memories or engrams<br />
* Hoo kara – ‘Hoo’ sound produced from the mouth during exhalation in meditation.<br />
<br />
==Patterns and the Biological Clock==<br />
I tell you; all your big patterns are just bio-clock, connected with some bio-clock, that’s all. When the time comes, your mouth will ask coffee, when the times comes, cigarette, when the times comes, beer. It is just connected to the bio-clock. Few days, few days just move, move them, move them, move them. If you don’t entertain a [[pattern]] just for two-three months, you will see that it becomes powerless in you and just dies. It just dies; it is just biological clock, nothing else. When it is morning, the Manipuraka will become active asking for food, when it is evening, the Swadishtana will start getting active asking for rest and feeling insecure. That is why, the evening always your fears will rise. Once it is night, around 10 or 11 the Mooladhara will become active asking for the sexual pleasure. This is just a biological clock; That is why the tradition in the Akhada Sampradhaya, always a [[Sadhu]] has to take bath after 9 in the cold water, come and sit and meditate, he should not engage himself in any external activity because any external activity you engage yourself in at that time, it will only be searching for sexual pleasure, it will only be inspired by that fire. <br />
<br />
In the morning, any activity you do, it will only be inspired, pushed by stomach, Manipuraka. If you are going towards fulfilling that, it’ll push, if you are going to do something else also, it’ll be always reminding you, ‘I’m here you’re unattending ,I am unattended, I am unattended,’ asking, the breakfast fire, till you attend to it, it will be asking. Same way, by the time it becomes “sandhya” the evening sunset, Swadhisthana will become active bringing life, giving life to fear patterns. By the time it is night -that is why I always insist after 10 you should only do [[completion]] and fall asleep. Any action you do, I insist any action you do, whether attending phone calls or chatting, any action you do it’ll be driven by the fire of lust. The Sannyas Sampradhaya after 9 any interaction with other gender whether it is a phone call or direct talk, or chat, should be completely avoided, because your biological clock will be functioning based on Mooladhara ; In akhadas they have this rule. <br />
<br />
I tell you, all your patterns are nothing but your biological clock. If you don’t entertain them for two three months, suddenly they will become powerless, they won’t have any more power over you. Sometimes, I wonder, human-beings not knowing how to get out of these simple patterns, they mess up their whole lives; get into worst relationships, suffering so much, giving up such huge beautiful possibilities. Never entertain fear starts during sunset, never entertain lust starts during night never entertain the hunger starts in the early morning when the sun raises, never entertain all these three because they are not real. Never make a decision based on all these three. The hunger in the morning should not give you agitation, make you agitated if you don’t give food. Never entertain all these three , I am not saying don’t eat in the morning , I am saying don’t entertain the patterns associated with that morning breakfast , you will see such, such amount of stress and the [[confusion]] gets awakened along with your morning hunger. Same way, after the sunset, the amounts of fear will get generated. <br />
<br />
==Making Life Your Goal Not Fears==<br />
WE feel happy or satisfied when we are running after desires or when we run away from our fears. So every moment, we are continuously either in greed by running after our desires or in fear by continuously running away from something. Our happiness in every moment is measured only by either greed or fear.<br />
<br />
But how can you be happy or satisfied when in this moment you are running towards or away from something? This means we are not actually experiencing the moment. We are not actually living in the present moment. <br />
<br />
We are continuously in the web of greed and fear. We are either living in the past or we are in the future thinking about our list of desires. We fear if our desires will get fulfilled due to past experiences. <br />
<br />
We are never in the present moment. We can enjoy something totally only when we are completely in it and we can be complete only when we are totally in the present moment, enjoying what we are doing here and now. <br />
<br />
When you are in the current moment, when you are completely in the present moment with full enthusiasm, you are in a state of bliss. Bliss is the state of joy which has no reason and which is not affected by the past or future. It is not affected by either our fear or our greed. It is always there. Then, the current blissful moment will give birth to future moments of bliss. You enter a virtuous circle rather than being caught up in the vicious circle of fear and greed that you are now caught in. <br />
<br />
This running towards or away from something is fundamentally because we think that life has some goal to be achieved. If you are running behind a goal in life, you will be disappointed at the end of life. Sadly, you will feel terribly dissatisfied; you will feel a complete void when you look back at what you have been running for. But when we see life itself as a goal, we make the path itself as the goal. So every moment when we are on the path of life, we are achieving the goal. The goal is achieved every moment of your life. The self-realised person is active and happy because he is completely in the present moment, living in reality. The Divine Energy simply blissfully flows through him and he does his activities with that blissful Energy. He no longer needs to derive energy for his activities from desire.<br />
<br />
==Fear, Greed and Inspiration==<br />
Using fear and greed to maximize performance is neither wrong nor right. Please understand, the purpose of life is expansion. Purpose of life is being a high achiever. Self actualization leads to self realization. <br />
<br />
For self-actualization, you may need to use fear and greed. <br />
But for self-realization. you need to drop fear and greed. <br />
<br />
When you know this, you will use fear and greed, but you will drop it also, you will not be bound by it. In every relationship, in every decision making, in every interaction, in every evaluation, remember this - if somebody is able to come to his peak through only fear or greed, use that. Even if you yourself are not able to do the peak performance without fear and greed, use it on yourself. But know it very clearly, once you are able to be in peak performance as a high achiever, drop it.<br />
When you achieve peak performance without fear and greed to fuel you, you are Buddha. When you are able to guide a group of people to be high achievers you have created a [[sangha]]. The way in which you do this is Dharma. Every successful fortune 500 company has a core sangha. Whether you know it or not, at a certain level the Sangha has evolved - at least 10 people who have actualized themselves and helped others to actualize themselves. Unless at least a few people evolve to this level, no successful venture is possible.<br />
<br />
==Bring Authenticity to Overcome Fear==<br />
Ability to stare into the inauthenticities is your abilities to look into the eyes of [[Kalabhairava]]. <br />
<br />
Why do you think Kalabhairava and Maha Kali are depicted with big big eyes,because they are constantly exposing your inauthenticities to you and you are afraid to look into their eyes.<br />
<br />
Only a man in [[authenticity]], living authenticity is the liberated one.<br />
<br />
State of fear can be born in you only when you are inauthentic. <br />
<br />
Courage of authenticity is the ornament of sanyasi. Courage of authenticity is the ornament for sanyasi. It is the grace of sanyasi. Courage of authenticity should be rudraksha for sannyasi. Courage which comes our of authenticity. Courage of authenticity is the only true ornament around the neck of the sanyasi.<br />
<br />
With authenticity even halahala poison cannot do anything to you.With inauthenticity , even if you drink nectar, you will be cut into pieces.<br />
<br />
With inauthenticity, Rahu drank the nectar He did not live, he did not achieve the result of the nectar, he did not achieve what he should achieve by the nectar. He became piece, piece. Still he is hiding without identity,it is called shadow planet.<br />
<br />
With authenticity even if you drink halahala poison it will not do any effects. It can’t do any of its effects because enrichment protects you, Devi protects you. Halala cannot cross the power of enrichment heart.That is why it could not cross throat to anahata where Devi is sitting [[enriching]]. If enrichment is sitting in the heart, even poison cannot cross your throat.<br />
<br />
Authenticity is the ornament of sanyasi. Only with authenticity love starts flowing<br />
<br />
I tell you with authenticity comes real love,care and concern. Only with authenticity comes, not giving up on people. Not giving up on people, not giving up on people.<br />
Only with authenticity you can express true love.<br />
<br />
Drill yourself again and again with authenticity and integrity<br />
<br />
Again and again let your thinking become integrity and authenticity<br />
<br />
Only with authenticity you can enrich others and yourself. Whether you or others you can enrich only by authenticity.<br />
<br />
Enriching, go on enriching, in every possible way enrich people. It will happen only with authenticity. Inauthenticity is the pus,unless it leaves your system neither you will be healthy nor you will make others healthy. Remove the pus from your system, you will be healthy and you will make others healthy. Inauthenticity is the unnecessary fat in your body. Push it out..no other shortcut.. you can’t put everything under the carpet. Bring integrity, bring authenticity in every step in every line, in every thought. In all possible ways enrich people. That is possible only with authenticity. <br />
<br />
===Inauthenticity makes postponing pattern happen in you===<br />
<br />
Listen, every time inauthenticity is allowed to live in you, it leaves powerful fear in you. Inauthenticity makes postponing, procrastination as a pattern in you. Postponing as a pattern in you. How many of you can cognize inauthenticity starts in you the first symptom of inauthentic is postponing. <br />
<br />
Continuously, continuously, bring authenticity to you, it is possible because inauthenticity cannot take roots in to you, all your inauthenticity is only roof garden not rooted garden. Rooted garden only difficult to uproot, roof garden has no roots. Roof gardens are only to the depth of few inches of sand. <br />
<br />
Constantly, inauthenticity puts you in a state of postponement. <br />
<br />
Suniye, inauthenticity can put you in a mental state of postponing life. I tell you postponing life is nothing less than death. If you are not living even you breath what is the use. <br />
<br />
Don’t postpone, live along with your breathing. The pattern of postponing when it settles in you, eats away your breathing period, kills your breathing period. Puts you in death, Keeps you in death temporarily even while you are alive. <br />
<br />
If you decide to do something, decide to express your life in some way, don’t postpone. If you are postponing, postponement is temporary death. You are dead. Postponing is death. <br />
<br />
Unfortunately, postponing does not convey the meaning, the seriousness of postponement. Postponement is death as long as pattern exists. Postponement is death as long as pattern exists. <br />
<br />
===Stretch to other’s Anyakara===<br />
I tell you only when you take the risk of stretching to others anyakara you will know the miraculous powers you are carrying if you have not tasted the miraculous powers you are carrying life is boredom for you. .<br />
<br />
Go on drilling yourself. Go on drilling yourself. Go on drilling yourself with integrity and authenticity. I tell you, only when you take the risk of stretching to other’s Anyakara, you will know your power, inner power, miraculous power you are carrying. If you have not tasted the miraculous powers you are carrying, life is boredom for you. You will have life only as a boredom. I tell you if you see any miraculous power me having it came to me only when I decided to stretch myself to all your Anyakaras. You have no right to have Anyakara about me may be fact, but that is not authentic. When I am ready to stretch to your Anyakaras I saw the extraordinary powers expressing through me.<br />
<br />
Continuously practice authenticity and integrity. You will experience miracles. You will see miracles happening in your life continuously. I am seeing, I am seeing miracles happening our life continuously. <br />
<br />
Today I wanted all of you to do the homework of finding out how Dhamma happens in your life reminding your inauthenticities to you and how you are afraid of Dhamma and avoid it. Dhamma is the power radiates in my eyes, which you are afraid to look in when you have done something Adharma. When you are in inauthenticity, you will be afraid to look into my eyes. What you are afraid of is Dhamma which is radiating in my eyes. Whenever you are afraid to look at my eyes and you know it will be burning, be very clear at that time my [[Third Eye|third eye]] is also open! Because I am looking at you with the [[Third Eye|third eye]], you are not ready to look at it; you are afraid. Your inauthenticity runs away.<br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Enriching&diff=12611Enriching2019-04-02T21:11:47Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>'''Enriching''' ('''Aapyayanam''') is you taking [[responsibility]] with [[Integrity]] and [[Authenticity]] that you are committed to continuously enriching, which is expanding yourself and life in and around you.<br />
<br />
When you are committed to enriching yourself and all round you, Life showers you with the best of everything! You not only experience life within you but also outside of you with others. When you enrich, the Power of Living is awakened in you.<br />
<br />
==Living Is a Power==<br />
<br />
Everyday, you are walking, talking, sitting, thinking, speaking, feeling and so on. All of these put together is living. Living itself is a Power! You can harness the Power of Living in your life when you adopt the lifestyle of Enriching.The purpose for which you are born is Enriching yourself and others. When you operate out of this understanding, you are most alive, at your peak and [[living enlightenment]]! Enriching is the key that unlocks the Power of Living in you.<br />
<br />
==Everything Is Part of You==<br />
<br />
All your struggles in life begin the moment you start thinking that others are separate from you. Understand, there is no one called ‘other’ in your life! The ‘other’ is only the forgotten and disowned parts of you! Your struggles with others are nothing but your struggle with the forgotten side of you. When you enrich others, you are naturally enriching the neglected side of your own being.<br />
<br />
So the more you enrich others, the more you enrich yourself. Above all, you wake up to the truth that everyone and everything is part of you.<br />
<br />
==Enriching Others Makes You Complete==<br />
Enriching is the only possible way you can relate with the universe, with others, which can expand you also. Human-beings relate with others in so many modes – mode of lust, mode of [[fear]], mode of [[confusion]], mode of jealousy, mode of attention-need. But, the best was to relate with others which will make you powerful, which will make you expanding, which will build you, is “Enriching”. <br />
<br />
Your creativity can enrich God! Your creativity is always your contribution to the Cosmos. It is something which was not there in the Cosmos; you created it; you expanded it; you expressed it! Enriching others constantly expands your possibilities of life. Enriching can ring expansion in whatever dimension of life you want. The first step you need to reach for success is Positivity; then, Space of Possibility; then, Space of Leadership; then Space of [[Enlightenment]]. Only if you remove friction in your thinking, the Space of Positivity happens. With the right understanding, everything is enriching. With the right understanding, everybody is enriching. You just need to have understanding and shift in your cognition. Simply your actions will transform!<br />
<br />
==Enriching Gives Life to all the Powers==<br />
<br />
With integrity you experience the space of positivity, with authenticity you experience the space of possibility, and with responsibility you experience the space of leadership. With enriching, you experience the space of enlightenment itself!<br />
<br />
Enlightened living is nothing but harnessing all your inner powers and using them to enrich yourself and others. So the Power of Living includes all the other powers in itself.<br />
<br />
When you have integrated [[listening]] ([[shravana]]), authentic thinking ([[manana]]) and make a responsible declaration (nidhidhyasana), you will be living an enriching life.<br />
<br />
When you enrich yourself and others, it is a step above taking responsibility. Enriching alone can burn any lack of integrity, inauthenticity or irresponsibility in you! Enriching is taking responsibility for everyone and everything, including others’ inauthenticity and lack of integrity because they are a part of you.<br />
<br />
Questionnaire: ‘If Enriching happens by an incomplete person, it doesn’t really reach people. It might help the Enricher but the other person might be going away instead of coming. Should the Enricher be completely complete before enriching?’<br />
<br />
Swamiji: “Completely completing” will happen ultimately only with enlightenment. So understand, [[Completion]], Enriching, both are not supposed to be done one after another. Both are supposed to be done simultaneously.<br />
<br />
Please understand, in Patanjali’s [[Yoga]], there’s a word called “Ashtanga Yoga” – “Eight parts”. Somehow, unfortunately, all the English Yogis have translated this as “Eight steps of Yoga”. That one small mistake the“anga” word. “Ashta” means “eight”; there is no controversy. This “anga”, instead of translating that word as “parts”, it has been translated… – Not even word, word “parts”, too superficial. Anga word should be translated as “organs” because they have not translated this “anga” as “organ”, instead of organ they translated that as “step”, the whole Yoga tradition has become useless in the West. It has become just small few techniques or the methods to make your body flexible and little health. That’s a disgrace done to Yoga.<br />
<br />
Please understand, when you get a diamond and use the diamond just as a vegetable cutter, vegetable cutter, it’s a disgrace to diamond. Same way, when you use such a great power, powerful science just as technique to bring little health. No. It is so unfortunate just that one mistake done by the Max Muellerians, means followers of Max Mueller, trying to translate Hindu scriptures just to destroy Hinduism, not for making the world realize the greatness of Hinduism. In my Sampradaya, in Nithyananda Sampradaya, nowhere the Max Mueller or Max Mueller translations should be accepted as a reference text book. I am banning Max Mueller and Max Muellerians translations of Hindu scriptures. They have done the translation more to abuse the Hinduism, not to make people understand Hinduism. This Max Muellerian translation of the word “Ashtanga”, instead of “the eight organs of Yoga”, it has been translated “eight steps of Yoga”. Over! And people are struggling with the second step and third step – Yama, Niyama, [[Asana]]. Over! No one crosses beyond.<br />
<br />
Yama is “Integrity”, Niyama is “Authenticity”. Please listen, Asana, [[Pranayama]], Pratyahara, Dharana is “Responsibility”. Dhyana and Samadhi is “Enriching”.<br />
<br />
Please listen, you are asking, ‘Should we do it one after another?’ No, no, understand, this is also like that Ashtanga, eight organs, not eight steps. Enriching and Completion, both are, simultaneously both should be practiced. Listen, with more and more Completion, more and more Enriching will happen. With more and more Enriching, Completion will happen. Actually, when you complete with somebody, you already started Enriching that person. How many of you have realized? I think still this batch has not yet started completing with others but, whoever has started Completion with others, the moment you complete with others, you already started Enriching the other person.<br />
<br />
Enriching starts happening with the Completion. Without Enriching, Completion cannot happen. Without Completion, Enriching cannot happen. It is like you start both together, one supports the other. You cannot say, ‘First I’ll operate my heart and then once the heart starts functioning completely, then I will start operating the lungs.’ No, lungs is Completion, heart is Enriching. Both has to happen simultaneously.<br />

<br />
Enlightened being is a person whose mind has disappeared so he constantly goes through new, new experience and expanding, continuously [[seeking]], understand! I am using the word ‘seeking.’ In who the capacity not to seek has disappeared is Enlightened Being. In you, still there is a part of your mind which can put you in boredom or [[tiredness]], you can stop seeking at one day, that is why you are still a seeker. If your seeking becomes eternal, there is no part of your mind exists to make you bored or tired, and it becomes sure you will be seeker forever, you are an Enlightened Being.<br />
Enlightened beings, they become one with the Cosmos, that is the ultimate experience, but not final, because Ultimate itself is constantly alive, not carved in stone! <br />
<br />
Ultimate is not carved in stone, it is a powerful happening. It is a constant happening! Every time I fall into Samadhi, I just know I am pregnant with billions of planets. I am just pregnant with billions of planets. Understand, when I say I am pregnant with billions of planets, means, I am constantly delivering, delivering, delivering. Swallowing billions and delivering billions. Infinity! Cosmos, is a happening. It is not a dead state. It is a alive, living, happening! Understand.<br />
Universe is happening, even all Enlightened Beings continue to seek. See the Enlightened Being seeking means continuous expansion, continuous expansion, so, even if Enlightened Beings are expanding, seeking, happening, then, you should be seeking. Kill all parts of you trying to become stagnant! - Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
Any stagnation is disease. If you are able to bend your body 40 degrees, make it at least 41 the next day, don’t stagnate. In the mind, if you are able to understand some concepts for five minutes, make it at least into 6 minutes next day. Killing all parts of stagnation in you by the constant inspiration and excitement is seeking. <br />

==DNA of Enlightenment==<br />
<br />
yo mām ajam anādhiṃ cha vetthi lokamaheśvaram |<br />
asaṃmūḍaḥa sa marthyeṣu sarvapāpaiḥ pramuchyathey ||<br />
<br />
He who knows me as unborn and beginningless, as the great Lord of the Worlds,<br />
He among mortals is undeluded, he is liberated from all sins.<br />
<br />
janma [[karma]] cha may dhivyam evaṃ yo vetthi tatthvathaḥ |<br />
thyakthvā dhehaṃ punarjanma naithi mām ethi so’rjuna ||<br />
<br />
He who thus knows in true light my divine birth and action, After having abandoned the body is not born again, he comes to me, O, Arjuna.<br />
<br />
Essence is, if you know Him, you are liberated. Totally in eight places he gives this kind of a statement meaning ‘If you know my DNA, you will become what I am. If you know what I am, you will become what I am.’<br />
<br />
What constitutes an enlightened DNA? How it can be practically developed? See, This is the seed - BECOMING BIGGER THAN WHATEVER IS KNOWN. I already clarified this point: By a war you will not achieve it. By making things smaller than what you are, you are not going to become bigger than what they are. So, war is out ruled. No war. Then what is the way? What is the way this DNA can be developed? What is the way it can become a practical experience in us? - Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />

<div>==About En-Kriya==<br />
<br />
eN KRIYA is the gift given to the world by Matsyendranath and Gorakhnath through me. <br />
<br />
The eN Kriya is from my own research and experience with Hata [[yoga]] which is from the great masters of the Nath Samprathaya. They created a great Samprathaya by mastering the [[Prana]]. This naturally gives health, mental peace, emotional fulfillment and above all, the highest possible consciousness.<br />
<br />
If the Pranic level is raised in your system, innumerable positive side effects can happen. The mitochondria energy level increases 13 times within 18 days. The research is done by taking the blood samples on day 1 and day 18. The doctors confirm again that there is no medicine or system in planet earth that increases the level more than 25%. Here, we have proved to the world that we can increase it 1300%.<br />
<br />
Very soon this research will appear in the Indian Science Journal and the scientists will also be holding a press conference. The words used by the scientists are earth shattering and ground breaking.<br />
<br />
This Kriya is one of the greatest gift by the great masters through me. I experimented in my own system and systematized it and shared it with a group of people under controlled conditions, then opened it with a small public. The original truth itself is from the great masters of the Vedic Tradition mainly the great Hata Yogis of the Nath Tadition, Matsyendranath and Gorakhnath, Swami Satyananda Saraswathi. The English translation is done authentically by the great yogi Swami Sathyananda Saraswathi. I offer my acknowledgement to all the great masters.<br />
<br />
eN Kriya mainly aims at balancing and fulfilling the 5 breathing movements. As per the Sidha tradition, the air movements are 10, according to Yogis, it is 5. <br />
<br />
With this eN Kriya, I am working on all the 5 Prana movements-life breath movements.<br />
*1) Air going in<br />
*2) Air staying in your system<br />
*3) Samana-From the air,life energy being separated and spread all over your system-muscle memory, mind, brain, all parts of you.<br />
*4) The air coming out, being released out of your system<br />
*5) Air used for cleaning the system - Apana<br />
<br />
These are the 5 Prana movements in your body. These 5 are responsible for your health, mental wellness, emotional fulfillment, [[pain]], restlessness, peace, and finally [[enlightenment]]. If they are balanced, you lead a healthy life. If they are awakened you achieve enlightenment. If they are unbalanced, it can result in disorders in everything<br />
<br />
In yogic tradition, there is no incurable disease. Soon, we will do further experiments and prove to the world, one by one, that there is no incurable disease. In the yogic system, not having disease alone is not enough. Raising the consciousness to the highest fulfillment and going beyond the life and death cycle which is being forced on you.<br />
<br />
Taking the body out of free will and leaving the body out of free will is great, masters do it again and again but doing that out of forced will is very seriously wrong. That is why we call the life and death cycle is one more disease. Bhavaroha.<br />
<br />
Here the eN-Kriya is shared with all of you to get rid of the Bhavaroha itself. It will immediately balance your 5 breath movements and naturally that will lead to physical health, mental wellness, emotional fulfillment, awakening the non-mechanical parts of the brain, anti aging and ultimately enlightenment.<br />
<br />
Through this kriya, we have proved anti-ageing is possible. We have proved through the scientific research also. Normally, the mitochondria dies very quickly but if this energy can be increased to that extreme level of 1300%, it’s a straight process for anti-ageing and we will further expand research in a deeper way.<br />
<br />
The eN Kriya is basically to balance the pancha pranas (5 Pranas). It mainly aims at increasing the mitochondria level and infusing life energy into your system, so automatically as a byproduct, the [[kundalini]] awakens and [[levitation]] will happen. It’s the essence of the 48 day LEP I did.<br />
<br />
Before launching this, I have thoroughly experimented with it scientifically and spiritually. The 13 times increase in mitochondria energy level has happened to all the participants. It is a selection, collection and compilation of Pranayamas, Mudras and postures.<br />
<br />
==Deeper Insights==<br />
From time immemorial, masters have always created strong, powerful, energetic, experience based meditation techniques kriyas, sutras, mantras, mudras, yoga postures etc to reproduce the extraordinary experiences and powers.<br />
<br />
This eN KRIYA is one of the ancient secrets, I can say the sacred secrets delivered to the world in the Hatha Yoga tradition by the great masters Matsyendranath and Gorakhnath, preserved, protected, practiced and preached by the Hatha yoga sampratha yogis.<br />
<br />
In this eN KRIYA, I have collected the essence of the great secrets embedded in the Hatha yoga and Mahavatar Babajis tradition. Please understand that eN KRIYA is not just a religious faith. I have done scientific study on this Kriya.<br />
<br />
We have done a thorough study for 21 days during the Inner Awakening program in December 2010. The study proves that the Kundalini process, the initiation, has increased the mitochondria cell energy levels of the participants up to 1300%.<br />
<br />
All available known process, drugs, therapy, even yoga can increase the mitochondria cell energy levels only between 20-30%. But the participants of Inner Awakening experienced extraordinary earth shattering levels 1300%<br />
<br />
Please understand after these extra-ordinary results, I was contemplating how we can help human beings experience this extra ordinary level in the mitochondria level, kundalini level. In this contemplation this eN KRIYA has happened as a gift to the world.<br />
<br />
It mainly concentrates on awakening the kundalini in people. I respectfully invite the scientific community to study this - Within 21 days of practicing eN KRIYA, at least once a day, the mitochondria cell energy level will increase 500%. This kundalini awakening will have only positive side effects, mental health and physical well being. Its 100% fool proof.<br />
<br />
If a group of people sit in any one city or place and practice this eN KRIYA at least for 21 days and experience Kundalini awakening, even the crime rate of the city, man made and natural calamities will drastically reduce.<br />
<br />
So this eN KRIYA will be a powerful tool for you to heal your body, mind, fulfill you spiritually, contribute to social peace, peace for the place you are living. This Kriya is mainly focusing on balancing the five life breath movements happening in your system (pancha pranas). The Pancha Pranas are - Inhaling, holding, the prana which was held that spreading inside your system, exhaling and cleansing.<br />
<br />
If these five movements are balanced and proper, naturally your body will be in health, your mind will be in a balanced space, your consciousness will be soaring higher and higher. Hundreds of good effects of your mind and consciousness will happen in your system just by balancing your Pancha Pranas. En KRIYA is all about balancing the Pancha Pranas. Many were asking if to do nithya dhyan or enkriya if u don’t have time. You can do eN KRIYA.<br />
<br />
Here, I’m trying to reach out to the world in as many ways as possible so that people can experience health physically physiologically, mentally, psychologically, emotionally and spiritually. I feel by spreading this eN KRIYA, we will create a new world health order.<br />
<br />
I am meditating, consciously working, to come up with more and more gifts, eN MUDRA, eN BANDHA, eN DYHAN, the essence of all meditation, i will be condensing and gifting to the world.<br />
<br />
I am making it very clear, these will work on all the people belonging to all religions, caste etc.<br />
<br />
This gift is from the Yoga-Vedantic tradition and I belong to yoga-vedantic tradition. Me and Dhyanapeetm belong to the Hindu yoga-vedantic tradition. We are not a non-religions secular tradition. We belong to yoga-vedantic tradition and we serve all beings, race, creed etc. <br />
<br />
==Awaken Kundalini with eN-Kriya and the Master's presence!==<br />
<br />
Let me define Kundalini exactly, especially for the sake of new comers. Kundalini is an extraordinary inner potential energy which is in every human being. Once awakened not only can it bring tremendous physical health, mental health, emotional fulfillment but can also manifest extraordinary experiences and powers & joy in your personality. <br />
<br />
Please understand, when systematically awakened, it can add to extraordinary power, strength, energy. It is time tested, fool proof, side effect free science, evolved, experimented, experienced, and expressed by the great Vedic inner scientists – rishis. <br />
<br />
Here, offered to you from the unbroken lineage – we call it karna parampara – means only heard from Guru to disciple. Never written – Guru teaches to his disciple, disciple teaches to his disciple by succession of unbroken lineage of enlightened beings and now it is in front of all of you as one of the great sciences. <br />
<br />
One unique thing we did is doing modern day scientific study on this Kundalini energy. As you may be aware, last Inner awakening we did scientific study we did a study on participants. <br />
<br />
Within 18 days of kundalini initiation, all of them had 1300% of increase in mitochondria cell energy. Maximum only 25 to 30% it can go up with any practice like Yoga. But this process did 1300% increase. All participants who participated in the program had this experience. This is our contribution. <br />
<br />
When the kundalini is awakened, not only does it bring tremendous energy into your mitochondria cell energy levels, it completely recreates, rejuvenates your inner organs, energy levels. I will completely prove how this kundalini energy recreates, rejuvenates, replaces your internal organs. <br />
<br />
Even your internal organs are recreated by the kundalini awakening. And kundalini awakening can directly make you young – not just look young, it can really make you young because the mitochondria cell if it become old and tired it becomes death process. <br />
<br />
When the mitochondria cell [energy] increases, the degradation and earth process of your cell energy stops. The ageing process stops. Not only will you look young, you will be young. This is the best technique to grow young. You have layer & layers of muscle memory. <br />
<br />
Understand this one truth. You are made out of layers & layers of clothes. For example, 25 sarees are put one on another and pressed tightly. On that material you are made. Each layer saree is one layer of your engrams. <br />
<br />
For example, at the age of 3, all your desires, fears, greeds, anger, pain, pleasure, everything is dependent on your mother’s physical nearness. If it is there, it is joy for you, if it is not there for you, it is pain. If there is an insecurity that it may not be there, it is [[fear]] for you. <br />
<br />
At the age of 7, all your fear, greed, anger, pleasure revolves around toys, at age 10 your fear, greed, anger, pleasure all revolves around the need of friends, the living toys. If you have more friends you will have joy, if you think you are losing friends you will have fear. <br />
<br />
At the age of 14, everything revolves around not just a friend. You evolve to a deeper relationship – a partner. Maybe not just other gender but your gender as well with whom you can share your life. Now all your fear, greed, pain revolves around the partner. <br />
<br />
Then after some more time, it revolves around need for your lover, beloved. <br />
<br />
Like this each layer of your bio memory is compressed and your body is made out. Awakening the kundalini will completely liberate you from all these layers & layers of muscle memory which is responsible for physical & mental disorders. <br />
<br />
The fears you had around your mother, the fears you had around your toys, the fears you had around your friend, the fears you had around your partner, your soul mate will be in the same trend. I can challenge! <br />
<br />
When your mother’s physical presence was taken away from you at age of 3 how your breathing was – chaotic, insecure – it will be exactly same or little deeper when your beloved goes away from you. The trend is the same, it is only different layers. I tell you the trend is the 7 chakra – greed, fear, worry, need, comparison- jealousy, assertive-ego, unfulfilled feeling. <br />
<br />
This is the trend and layer by layer on this same trend, every cloth gets colored. 1st cloth gets colored by mothers physical presence, 2nd cloth gets colored by the toys you possess. 3rd layer cloth gets colored by the friends you possess. The 4th layer cloth gets colored by the partner you possess. 6th cloth may gets colored by [[wealth]] – all these are layers & layers of cloth. You are nothing but a toy layered in different clothes colored by different colors. That’s it. <br />
<br />
Kundalini will completely wash you. Why do you think people jump when their kundalini is awakened. Because I am putting them in a washing machine. I am a huge laundry. <br />
<br />
My presence is the washing machine, words are the detergent and the joy which the kundalini awakening creates in the body is the water and eNkriya is the power supply. After we wash & finish it, we just dry it, iron it and put the label Enlightened and send it to the world - eNclothes! <br />
<br />
I can tell you in the Ashram especially after I started giving this kundalini initiation, our medical bill has fallen by 90%. Earlier if it was monthly 100 rupees, now it has come down to 10 rupees. <br />
<br />
If any community wants to get down their medical bill by 90% I have a technique. 90% of your medical bill drastically immediately drops. <br />
<br />
I am more like a hospital, I have all kinds of sick people around me! All you need is to connect through the 2 way Video conferencing and sit in the morning [[satsang]] with me for 21 days. That’s all. You don’t need to do anything. Just sit around the washing machine that’s all. When the clothes next to you are getting churned. Don’t have fear. Sometime they can slap you. I know who do it by purpose – this is the time to slap! <br />
<br />
Kundalini awakening is sarva roga nivarini. It alters the very set up of your basic units of the body. If you call it DNA, molecular level, genetic level – whatever basic unit of your physical construction is thoroughly awakened by kundalini awakening. <br />
<br />
All it takes is eNkriya and master’s presence. eNkriya is almost like hammering a snake’s tail when it is sleeping. It will just wake up and reach your crown center and vomit nectar, not poison. This snake is filled with nectar not poison. When your kundalini gets awakened, layer by layer the kundalini energy gets infused, your engrams get cleaned and your very skin will shine.<br />
<br />
I am seeing very serious illnesses like long time back pain, long time [[depression]] all these are disappearing by kundalini awakening. I only want to insist to sit in Padmasana and continuously unclutch even when levitation is happening in you. so that you will not hop but will raise, remain few seconds in the air and then you will beautifully land. <br />
<br />
Even while levitation is happening, continue to unclutch! I will now initiate all of you into this powerful eNkriya which is a direct process for awakening the kundalini. Before this Kriya at least for 10 or 20 minutes do not drink or eat anything. Your body needs to be free.<br />
<br />
==Intructions==<br />
The whole kriya will take only 42 mins. Doing it twice or at least once a day is enough. If you want physical health etc, doing it once a day is enough, if you want to experience the sidhis and extraordinary powers like teleporting etc you can do it twice a day. If you can do it thrice a day, it can lead to Enlightenment.<br />
<br />
En-Kriya works on all 5 prana movements. Balancing prana awakens Kundalini. Once Kundalini is awakened it brings tremendous physical health, mental health, emotional fulfillment, also manifests extraordinary experiences and powers & joy in your personality. eN-Kriya takes 42 mins. <br />
<br />
1) Nadi Shodana - 11 times<br />
2) Bastrika - 21 times<br />
3) [[Pranayama]] - 21 times<br />
4) Shambavi Mudra - 21 times - the actual Kriya<br />
5) Humming - Energizes - 7 mins<br />
6) [[Shakti Dharana]] - 7 times - Holds the Energy<br />
7) Radiate Bliss to the world <br />
<br />
1st step - sit straight, very simple inhaling and exhaling 11 times just to prepare yourself for the Kriya - Close the right side of the nostrils with your thumb, inhale deeply and when you feel full, close the other side and exhale – after exhalation, now close the left nostril and inhale through the right nostril and when you feel full, cholse the other side and exhale. This is one step. Repeat this set 11 times. This will clean the nadis.<br />
<br />
2nd step - Bastrika, pull your lower abdomen in and up without lifting the shoulder – 21 times<br />
<br />
3rd step - pranayama - inhaling as slowly as possible, holding as long as possible, exhaling as slowly as possible, holding the lungs empty without inhaling, as long as possible – 4 actions make one cycle, 21 cycles need to be done.<br />
<br />
The above 3 are the preparation for the eN Kriya. Only if you do the 3 steps, you can enter into the kriya. Without this, it wont have any effect itself.<br />
<br />
4th step is the main Kriya-Shambavi Mudra-Thumbs on the ears, the 1st two fingers (index and middle) covering the eyes, the 3rd ring fingers on your nose and the little fingers touching your lips. Stop the breathing flow, inhaling or exhaling completely as much as you can. After you feel that you cant stop any more, release those 2 ring fingers, the body will automatically inhale and balance. Don’t put your will. Body will automatically balance itself. This will be one pranayama. Do it 21 times<br />
<br />
5th Step- Settling in your body with intense humming. The energy created has to be churned in your system, making it a part of your muscle memory - Mahamantra - 7 minutes of intense humming.<br />
<br />
6th Step - Do the shakthi dharana meditation 7 times. Kneel down, lift your hands up and remain with your palms facing up. Experience the cosmic energy flowing through you. When you feel the fullness of the energy, rest your elbows on the ground, bend down and touch your forehead on the ground.<br />
<br />
Now sit for few minutes and send blissful love and peace into the world.<br />

<div>==Easy Way to Catch the Ego==<br />
<br />
Here is an easy way to catch the ego; to know when the ego is coming up.<br />
<br />
Whatever makes you uncomfortable is ego!<br />
<br />
Look at your own life.<br />
<br />
Whenever you experience pain, anger, jealousy, it is always the result of feeling separate from someone else, of feeling alone, of feeling cheated. In times of misery, you always experience yourself as being all alone. This is the ego at work.<br />
<br />
In times of joy, you feel naturally connected with everyone and everything around you. When you are joyful, happy, laughing – these are the times when your ego is at its weakest.<br />
<br />
In your present life, you may experience these moments temporarily. But meditation is going to take you to a permanent state of bliss. Meditation is the process of falling in tune with the whole of Existence. In meditation, there is simply no place for separateness, no place for the ego. Once you sense the lasting harmony of everything, once you sense the deep interconnectedness of all of Existence, what will be the need for maintaining the ego? The ego is your armor against the world. The ego is your shield in times of war. If everything is peaceful, if everything is harmonious – then where is the need for armor, a shield? You can just relax, that’s all.<br />
<br />
But you are used to struggling for everything!<br />
<br />
We have to create a big problem and then fight with it. This is what your ego wants. That’s why you find it so difficult to meditate – because meditation is such a simple thing! It is too simple, actually. All you have to do is sit silently and unclutch from your thoughts as they come up.<br />
<br />
Is that so difficult?<br />
<br />
Actually there is no need to teach or learn meditation! Meditation should simply happen. Just sit still for a few minutes and watch your mind, it is enough to get a glimpse of reality.<br />
<br />
Just for a few seconds, if you can sit silently, watch your racing thoughts, just be – that will be enough to convince you of the truth. And once the truth is known, where is the place for your ego? The ego will have to be dropped. You will drop it naturally. That’s why the ego fights meditation so hard. Meditation is the death of ego!<br />
<br />
So the only problem you will face is the strong resistance from your ego. When you are meditating, the ego will raise a thousand questions. Doubt is the most deadly weapon that the ego has! The ego will continuously create doubts and questions in your mind.<br />
<br />
In the beginning it will make you worry, Can I really meditate? Can I sit for so many hours with my bad back? Is this path really for me?<br />
<br />
What if I get drawn too deeply in? What will happen to my family? Will my friends call me crazy? Am I really crazy? <br />
<br />
If you are working with a master, it will raise doubts against the master! Is the master really authentic? Does he know which technique is right for me? What is his purpose in teaching me meditation? Is this some kind of hypnosis? So if you find these kinds of questions arising, don’t bother. Simply drop the questions and continue with the meditation. Don’t feel guilty about having these questions!<br />
<br />
These questions arise naturally in everyone’s mind. And don’t try to struggle with these questions. Don’t make the mistake of struggling with the ego!<br />
<br />
Ego is just something imaginary; it is nothing but the lack of awareness; it has no positive existence. Just like darkness is a state of no-light, ego is a state of no-awareness. If you are in a dark room, can you fight the darkness and push it out to make the room bright? Does it make sense to struggle against the darkness?<br />
<br />
In fact, your solution has nothing to do with the darkness. You have to simply bring in a lamp and the darkness will disappear on its own! In the same way, don’t waste your energy fighting with the ego. Focus on bringing awareness into your meditation. By and by, the questions will drop naturally.<br />
<br />
==Ego disconnects – Love connects==<br />
<br />
We are one with the ocean, not individual drops in the ocean.<br />
If the cosmos is a grand ocean, we are all part of it. We are one with the ocean, not individual drops in the ocean. When we think of ourselves as individual drops, we feel separate in our boundary and in our feelings. This is what is called ego. We become driven by feelings of ‘I’ and ‘mine’. As long as this separation remains, we never experience the energy of the ocean that is love, we can never experience that causeless and surging love.<br />
<br />
Bliss is possible only when our heart says ‘yes’, when the ‘no’ completely disappears from our being.<br />
<br />
As long as we remain a drop in the ocean, we say ‘no’ to life. We neither love nor trust. We don’t feel blissful either because bliss is possible only for those who know how to love and trust. It happens only to those who know how to feel part of the ocean. Bliss is possible only when our heart says ‘yes’, when the ‘no’ completely disappears from our being. ‘No’ is darkness, ‘yes’ is light. ‘No’ is ego, ‘yes’ is egolessness.<br />
<br />
‘No’ is the way of the unconscious person. ‘Yes’ is the way of the awakened one. All the conflict, all the suffering in our life is because of our saying ‘no’. ‘No’ is a fight, a war with Existence. ‘Yes’ is love, peace with Existence. ‘Yes’ is deep accord with the totality of who we are – the ocean. Bliss is another name for that accord, that harmony.<br />
<br />
The way to be in bliss is to dissolve into the ocean, not to be a drop but to merge with the ocean.<br />
The way to be in bliss is to dissolve into the ocean, not to be a drop but to merge with the ocean. To be a drop is to be with ego. The ego is the root of all misery. When the ego is absent, bliss reaches us from every nook and corner of the ocean of existence, as if it were just waiting for the ego to disappear.<br />
<br />
Ego is a closed state of consciousness. All the windows and doors are closed. Life itself becomes insulated and encapsulated. Our ego surrounds us like a capsule. Our ego is like a sealed capsule; there is not even a small gap to allow anything to enter. It closes itself due to fear and shrinks into itself. That is how we create misery for ourselves.<br />
Love is being in the flow with Existence, to be totally with it. Ego is like frozen ice. Love is like liquid water. Only when we are liquid do we become part of the ocean. Then we don’t have any private goal or destination. Each moment is blissful, incredibly ecstatic, just going with the plan of the cosmos.<br />
<br />
The mind is part of the ego. It knows how to close, but it does not know how to open. To love means to open up, to surrender. It means opening up to Existence, to the flowers, to the bees and to the stars. How do we open to this beautiful music that fills the whole of Existence? How do we open up to this celebration that goes on and on – flowers dancing in the wind, trees enjoying the wind and the stars, always in a state of bliss? Except for man, everything else seems to be in harmony.<br />
<br />
Man falls out of harmony because he has what is called ‘consciousness’ which is not present in other living creatures.<br />
..it is easier to fall into the trap of the ego and not enter into paradise than to enter paradise knowingly.<br />
<br />
Consciousness can do two things. It can create ego or it can create egolessness. If it creates ego, we live in hell. If it creates egolessness, we live in paradise. The whole world is in paradise without knowing it. When man enters paradise, he enters knowing it fully. That is the grandeur and beauty of man. That is the danger as well, because it is easier to fall into the trap of the ego and not enter into paradise than to enter paradise knowingly.<br />
<br />
The problem is that we have forgotten who we are and for what we were created. We are emperors of love, but we dream that we are beggars. We have the whole kingdom of Existence within our being and yet we continue to beg for mundane things. We keep collecting mundane things not knowing that we have infinite, inexhaustible treasures within our being. We are oceans, yet we are thirsty because we have become disconnected from our own selves. But no matter how disconnected we are, no matter how much we have forgotten and how long we have forgotten, it can be remembered in a single moment and we can become connected immediately.<br />
<br />
Love is the connector.<br />
<br />
Bliss arises from love. Love is the poetry that connects you back to Existence. Love is the sword that slays the ego and merges you with the ocean. When the heart is full of love, your whole life is transformed from prose to poetry, from noise to music and from discord to harmony.<br />
<br />
It is such sheer joy to simply exist. Just ‘to be’ is enough. But we need to be sensitive to feel the joy of being. We need to grow feelers. The feelers are what we call love. Love feels the joy of just being. When you grow the feelers of love, life is no longer made of independent thoughts but becomes a continuous feeling. Then the ego starts to dissolve. Once we have moved from thinking to feeling, there is only one more step and that is from feeling to being. That is very simple.<br />
<br />
The first step is difficult, to move from thinking to feeling. The ego has trained the mind to think so much, that’s why. The second step comes almost automatically. There’s nothing we need to do for it to happen. From feeling to being, the distance is nothing at all. It can happen at any moment. The poet can become the mystic at any moment. He is almost there. The real problem is how to get out of our thinking and get more and more into feeling.<br />
<br />
Just follow the heart. Just love more, that’s all! Feel more. Enjoy more so that you can feed your heart. Watch the sunrise, sunset, clouds, rainbows, birds, flowers, animals, rocks, and people, and watch them with awareness. Look into their eyes. Existence is so multidimensional. Look into every dimension like a poet. Praise it. Feel it. Be ecstatic! Expand your consciousness and experience every single detail of Existence with love. Slowly, the ego will lose its hold and disappear.<br />
<br />
“Ego is separateness while love is a merger. The fear we feel is nothing but the fear of the dissolving ego.”<br />
<br />
The only barrier to love is fear. When things start happening, we become fearful because with love we enter into a merger. This threatens the very basis of our ego. Ego is separateness while love is a merger. The fear we feel is nothing but the fear of the dissolving ego. Let the fear be there. It will hang around for a while. If we simply ignore it, the ego will leave us. It is a great day when fear of losing the ego leaves us. From then on growth becomes simple, easy and spontaneous. Then we are not, only love is.<br />
<br />
==Ego and the connection with nature==<br />
<br />
This is an incident from the days right after my enlightenment when I was in Tamil Nadu in South India.<br />
<br />
Because the eyes were not processing any information, there was no fear inside..<br />
One evening, I was sitting in a very relaxed mood in a forest. My eyes were open, but I was not seeing anything, as there was no information going inside and getting processed. There was a huge snake lying about three feet in front of me. Because the eyes were not processing any information, there was no [[fear]] inside. I was sitting and the snake was also so relaxed and comfortable.<br />
<br />
Then slowly, my mind came down to the normal plane and I had a thought, ‘Oh, there is a snake.’ Then the next thought came, ‘I should move away.’ The moment the thought ‘snake’ came in my inner space, I saw very clearly that the snake also felt disturbed that there was a man in its presence.<br />
..the moment I had the fear, immediately the snake also felt the same insecurity<br />
Until I felt ‘There is a snake,’ the snake never felt that I am a man. Until I felt the fear, the snake never felt threatened by me. Neither did I have fear nor did the snake have fear. But the moment I had fear, the snake also got fear. It was not that the physical distance between us reduced. Just the thought ‘snake’ came in me and I was clearly able to feel there was a disturbance, a restlessness, in the snake’s inner space. The moment I had the thought ‘I should move’, the moment I had the fear, immediately the snake also felt the same insecurity, the same threat. Immediately, the snake started moving, even before I started moving.<br />
<br />
When your ego becomes strong, your ability to connect with Nature is disturbed.<br />

==Realize the beauty of the purposelessness ==<br />
<br />
According to the Upanishads*, as long as you think that life has a purpose and you run behind that purpose, you are an egoistic person. When you realize the beauty of the purposelessness of life, you have dropped your ego.<br />
<br />
A man with ego searches with purpose and misses reality<br />
<br />
The master is the one who makes you understand the purposelessness of life. Whatever you think of as being worthy now is not actually the true and worthy thing. A man with ego searches with purpose and misses reality.<br />
<br />
Death clearly shows that whatever mind you lived with has no real existence. When you realize the purposelessness of life, a new consciousness starts blossoming in you. The moment you experience that there is nothing to be achieved, that the diamonds you are protecting are not diamonds but stones, and that all your great things in life are mere toys, you will understand the purposelessness of life.<br />
<br />
When the ego is dropped, you will understand the Divine purpose of life<br />
<br />
The real purpose of life cannot be understood by the ego. When the ego is dropped, you will understand the Divine purpose of life, the leelasor the Divine play, you will enjoy the drama. If you keep thinking that life has a purpose and wait to achieve something, you will miss life itself.<br />
<br />
Life itself is the path and the goal. When you have a goal, you will run. Your feet will not touch the ground and you will miss the beauty of Existence or nature. When you drop the goal, the emphasis will be on the path.<br />
<br />
When you understand the purposelessness of life, you understand the meaning of living. Until then, you are just a ‘living dead’ person. A person in a coma lying in the hospital bed and a normal person who has not realized the Truth, both live without proper consciousness. The master is the one who makes you realize this truth. The meaning of living is the meaning of life or Existence.<br />
<br />
Drop the goal and enjoy life. Meditate on this teaching again and again. The Truth will dawn on you and the nithya ananda* state will flower in you, the state that is the very meaning of life.<br />

==The Ego in Disguise==<br />
<br />
If you seriously analyze every worry that arises in you, you will see that ninety nine percent of your worries are baseless. But the problem is that the ego is not willing to accept that. The ego has invested too much in worry. Worry can’t be discarded just like that! Just try telling someone that his or her worries are not worth anything. They will get very offended. You would expect that a person would feel happy if you tell him his worries are not true. But it won’t be so! He will feel offended. The ego feels offended whenever its worries are not acknowledged with due respect.<br />
<br />
Chaitanya Mahaprabhu* says beautifully, ‘When a living entity forgets the constitutional nature of his relationship with god, he is at once overwhelmed with external energy. This is the cause of his false ego, his identification with his body-mind system!’<br />
<br />
Ego comes into play only when you lose your connection with Existence. The ego is what sustains the worry. The worry is created out of ignorance, but sustained by ego. Worry becomes an axis around which the ego revolves. If worry is taken away, the ego suffers. The worry of work and the worry of responsibility are classic examples of this.<br />
<br />
Understand that the idea of hard work itself is a myth. Hard work is really just worry plus a little work, that’s all. Real hard work never causes<br />
worry. It simply rises and falls like a wave, with great dynamism and intensity. It will never dilute itself with worry.<br />
<br />
An eight year old girl was very intelligent and somehow sensed that her mother would like a gift. She decided to buy her mother a birthday gift. The mother was very happy. She thought, ‘At least my daughter appreciates my efforts. No one else does.’<br />
<br />
The girl gave her mother the gift and told her, ‘This is for you because you work so hard and no one appreciates it.’ The mother replied, ‘But dear, your father also works hard. Don’t forget that.’<br />
The girl said, ‘Yes, but he doesn’t make a fuss about it.’<br />
<br />
The fuss is the worry. If you watch some people, they simply magnify their situation to prove that they have the greatest worries on planet earth! If you try to contradict them, they feel very hurt.<br />
Even worrying about what others will say about us is a problem of the ego. The ego is constantly worried that its self-image might be spoiled by someone. It is because of the ego that we feel we want to be somebody special all the time. We spend considerable time just worrying about our self-image. Understand that the greatest blessing is being a nobody and yet being blissful. That is the greatest specialty. It is said that the most extraordinary thing about an [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]] is that he thinks he is ordinary! So, understand that [[enlightenment]] itself is a journey to relax into yourself. You are someone special all the time, only when you drop worry and ego.<br />
<br />

==Suffering leads to Ego==<br />
Your ego cannot exist without your suffering. Suffering is the root of your ego. This is an important thing you need to understand.<br />
We always think that the ego is disturbed by suffering. No! Ego is enriched by suffering.<br />
<br />
We always think that the ego is disturbed by suffering. No! Ego is enriched by suffering. One more important thing is that if your suffering is less, your ego is less. You feel you are too small, so you increase your suffering so that you can feel you are somebody.<br />
<br />
The less the suffering, the lesser is the ego. The more you suffer, the stronger your ego becomes. So you always exaggerate your suffering. The problem is that after some time you forget that you exaggerated. Then you are also caught in the same net. You might disagree and say, ‘No, you don’t know my life. You don’t know my suffering.’ But be very clear, after some time you are caught in the same net that you yourself created!<br />
<br />
You can only enjoy yourself without ego<br />
<br />
If you think something is yours, you can’t enjoy<br />
<br />
Only when you don’t have ego can you really enjoy yourself. If you have ego, you can’t enjoy. Standing in front of the mirror, you may apply makeup so that others will enjoy you, but you can’t enjoy yourself. Only a person who does not have ego, who does not identify with the body and mind, can enjoy himself. If you think something is yours, you can’t enjoy. For anything that you think of as yours, you have lost the [[freedom]] to enjoy that thing or relationship.<br />
<br />
==Ego vs Master==<br />
<br />
People ask me, ‘Why do we have to follow masters?’ I tell them, ‘You don’t have to follow masters. But if you don’t follow masters, you will be following your ego, that’s all. There are only two options: either you listen to the master or you listen to the ego.’<br />
<br />
If you are a little uncomfortable, if you want to change, then follow the master’s path.<br />
<br />
Master is the being who has already achieved eternal bliss, nithya ananda*. If you follow him you will also reach that state. As for your ego, you know what it has achieved so far and what it is heading towards! If you are happy,comfortable, contented and blissful in the path in which your ego is already leading you, then you can follow your ego. Nothing is wrong with that. If you are a little uncomfortable, if you want to change, then follow the master’s path.<br />
<br />
There are only two things, master and the mind. If you follow the master, you cannot follow the mind. If you follow the mind, you cannot follow the master.<br />
<br />
There is a beautiful word, ‘na maha’. It means, ‘not mine’, ‘I am not’ – I surrender the ‘I’ and ‘mine’ at the feet of the master or god.<br />

==Technique to Transcend Ego==<br />
===Swamiji’s death experience in Varanasi===<br />
<br />
Death is a mystery, but more importantly, it is a man’s greatest fear. In Vedanta this is one of the most used techniques for enlightenment. In Buddhism, anyone initiated into Sannyas has to spend three months in the cremation grounds and continuously observe bodies being burnt while visualizing him being burnt. Almost all mystical traditions on the planet use this technique to achieve the highest possibility. Logical mind finds it difficult to understand how one simple experience can give such courage.<br />
<br />
Swamiji himself had this particular experience in Varanasi. When Swamiji went to Varanasi, Swamiji saw that per day three hundred dead bodies were being cremated in a place called Manikarnika Ghat. Traditionally, it is believed that if somebody leaves the body in that area, or if their body is burnt at Manikarnika Ghat, they will be liberated. Ramakrishna confirms this and says that he saw Mahadeva himself going to every pyre and liberating every soul from their karmas or in-completions. The men working there would carry the bodies to the Ganga River, reaching there by evening. As they walk, they keep chanting ‘Ram Naam Satya Hai’, which means that Lord Rama’s name is the ultimate truth. There is no special ritual involved. Three times the bodies are dipped into the Ganga as they say ‘Raam Naam Satya Hai’.<br />
<br />
Swamiji sat there to watch what was going on, and an hour later, death was no more a strange incident that happens once in a blue moon to a distant relative. Bodies of all size, gender, age, color, community and religion were burnt in that hour. When one sees so many bodies, it feels like there is nothing to it. Everyone has to leave their body some day and the breath that goes into them does not come out, that is all.<br />
<br />
Knowing that death is inevitable will bring down the respect that one has for the ego. Whatever that one thinks should not leave them is their ego. When one knows for sure that everything is going to leave them, the respect for the ego goes down immensely. <br />
<br />
Being a very straightforward person, Swamiji immediately dropped his ego and decided that if he’s going to die after all, he should have a death experience now itself and live without the fear or die and see for himself. He sat down in a small Shiva temple nearby and started watching the dead bodies being burnt. The big ‘click’ that he remembers even to this day happened when an old lady’s body was being burnt and he could see the fat from her stomach melting. This fat made the fire burn brighter and this made him think that the very same thing is going to happen to him. <br />
<br />
This opened up a deep, terrible fear of death in him and he faced it consciously.<br />
<br />
The fear was spreading all over his body and when it met his awareness, it became a death experience. He saw clearly that his body was dead. For two and a half days, he did not sleep, eat, drink or think. Suddenly the ‘click’ happened that his body is dead but he still exists. This was such an intense ecstasy that the fear of death just left. Slowly he opened his eyes, and the first thing he felt was a deep gratitude. He performed a small pooja for Vishwanatha (name of Lord Shiva in Varanasi temple) and he could see clearly that Vishwanatha was alive. When he died, Vishwanatha became alive to him. Till the previous day, because he was alive, Vishwanatha was a dead stone.<br />
<br />
When a fear is suppressed, it stays inside the person. When one does not consciously face the fear, it shakes his whole nervous system. However, when it is faced consciously, it becomes a death experience.<br />
<br />
As Mahadeva says in the Shiva Sutras, “Visualize the fire rising out of your body slowly, let your form be burnt, let your body turn to ashes, but not you”.<br />
<br />
==Visualization Technique to Awaken Third Eye==<br />
Try to feel the life in everything that is around you<br />
<br />
This technique can be practiced any time. Feel the cosmos as a translucent, ever-living presence. Try to feel the life in everything that is around you. Try to see it. Try to feel it. First, try to feel the life inside your body. Then try to feel the life inside the chair on which you are sitting. See how you are feeling alive inside your skin. In the same way, visualize and feel you are alive inside the chair, inside the cushion. Then visualize you are alive inside the people who are sitting next to you.<br />
Let me give you an example. Let’s say that you put a bamboo stick in a river. Now you can see a part of the river on the left of the bamboo and another part to the right of the bamboo. But does it mean the river has now been divided into two parts? No! If the bamboo is taken away, there is no right side or left side anymore. There is no boundary. It is just one river, that’s all.<br />
Because of your ego, you say ‘I’ and ‘you’.<br />
<br />
Life is just like the river. The bamboo is your ego. Because of your ego, you say ‘I’ and ‘you’. You have two sides – you and the world. You see duality because of that bamboo. If you just take the bamboo of your ego away, there is neither ‘I’ nor ‘you’. It is pure ever-living presence.<br />

<div>==Who is Educated?==<br />
Education means ability to handle the blind spots.<br />
<br />
If your inner space is capable enough to complete with all the blind spots you need to handle in that field, you are educated. <br />
For example, doctor. What all the blind spots, if an ordinary man suddenly tries to become a doctor, what all the blind spots he will have. He will not know where to cut, where to stitch, he will not know where to put the medicine, he will not know what medicine to apply; he will have too many blind spots. If you are able to handle all those blind spots properly, you are a doctor. <br />
<br />
Same way, an engineer. If an ordinary man tries to build a building, he may know a few things- a building should have a few pillars, it should have foundation, it should have roof. But he will have a lot of blind spots; what should be the size of the pillar, what should be the size of the foundation, what should be the size of the roof. So many blind spots he will have but if you are able to handle all of those blind spots, you are educated engineer, that’s all. <br />
<br />
==What is the Purpose of Education?==<br />
Purpose of education is educating the child to be manifesting whatever he is capable of, and being a very good, beautiful and best contributing citizen of the planet Earth and for humanity. <br />
<br />
===Generalization, in Modern Day Education===<br />
So much of dilution due to generalization. When you generalize, you always think of the weakest link<br />
<br />
===Examination in Vedic Education===<br />
In Vedic tradition, examinations are not done by question answer method. That is McCaulay's method - clerk making. In Vedic tradition all examinations are conducted by the [[Thought Current|thought current]] you carry. The person will be made to speak in the presence of the pundits who have mastered that [[Thought Current|thought current]]. They will see whether he can spontaneously express that [[Thought Current|thought current]]. Then he has mastered it. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
<br />
==What is Real Education?==<br />
If we are teaching the science of [[completion]] to our kids, we should be able to guarantee, you can't get even one lie out of our [[Gurukul]] kids. That is what is education. Education is making you master a [[Thought Current|thought current]]. Which becomes their lifestyle. Which becomes the cognition style. Which becomes their very being. <br />
For hours you cannot speak on a subject unless it has become your [[Thought Current|thought current]]; the way you cognize. <br />
Change of [[Thought Current|thought current]], transformation of thought current is the success of education. Each Upanishad adds a thought current to you. Transformation of thought current is success. <br />
- Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
==Nithyananda Mahayoga==<br />
''"Your brain is the most powerful, amazing, wonderful and unutilized component of your system," - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
Explaining that we use a mere 99% of our gray matter, Paramahamsa Nithyananda explains how manifesting extraordinary powers creates synapses and awakens parts of the brain never otherwise used. <br />
<br />
The particular branch of Nithyananda [[Yoga]] that explores powers and other dimensions is called Nithyananda Mahayoga, and real education, as enjoyed in Nithyananda Gurukul, explores this. <br />
<br />
==Context of Indian Education System==<br />
<br />
Shanti Mantra<br />
auṁ saha nāvavatu | saha nau bhunaktu | saha vīryam karvāvahai |<br />
tejasvi nāvadhītamastu mā vidviṣāvahai ||<br />
auṁśāntiḥśāntiḥśāntiḥ ||<br />
<br />
Translation - Let both of us be together and be protected. Let us not hurt each other. Let us not cherish enmity towards each other. Lets not cherish anger towards each other.<br />
Shanti Mantra sets the context of Indian Education system, and in Indian Education System, there is no higher and lower. Means: teacher is not considered as higher than you. Student is not considered lower than the teacher, because it is very clear, teacher also goes on learning by teaching. <br />
<br />
It is a student who makes person into teacher. Teacher, cannot be self-centric and education is such, both constantly gets enriched. <br />
<br />
''Playing the role of a teacher for millions for last more than 12 years, I wanted to tell you this. I started teaching I think in 2001, and now it is 2015, almost 14 years. Being the teacher, playing the role of a teacher, also for millions for last 14 years, I want to tell you—I am enriched more than any of my students by teaching. Please understand, all my classes, the only person who attended is Me. The only person who attended all my classes is me. Students change, but teacher is same, and fortunately, I have the habit of sitting aside, sitting beside and [[listening]] to what I am saying. - HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
All of us know Master cannot cherish any anger towards the disciple. What is there? Why should the line say – Let both of us not cherish the anger. It means: there is always a possibility, disciple can have a Self-Doubt, may be my ignorance is being explained. Maybe because I am ignorant, he is not only teaching me, he is constantly pulling, putting me down. Understand, presence of Ignorance is always painful.<br />
<br />
[[Pain]] is the method; pain is the method to measure the presence of ignorance. Pain proves the presence of ignorance. Ignorance always will be [[causing]] pain. Make this as a scale—anything does not cause pain, is not ignorance. Anything ignorance will cause pain, will cause pain. Understand, when you are sitting with so much of pus, wounds internally, externally, even if Master tells you—“please apply the medicine,” you will feel hurt “see, He is pointing at my wounds, he is all the time thinking about my wounds.”<br />
Understand, my job is the most difficult job, I tell you. I have to cut your ego, without you feeling the pain. First thing, I have to make you understand, which part of you is tumor, and which part of you is muscle. <br />
<br />
...Understand, arrogance remembers the pain caused by others, not the benefits. Arrogance never lets you remember the benefits caused by the Guru, only it remembers pain you created using the name of the Guru. The teacher’s job is the most difficult job. Teacher’s job is the most difficult job. He has to constantly deal with your conflicts, controversies, confusions. Morning you will say, “please do what needs to be and give me [[enlightenment]].” Evening you will come and say, “I am giving up, I don’t think either you are capable or neither I am capable of standing, living with you.” And then again next day morning, you will come and tell, “No, no, Swamiji, I have decided to surrender, please awaken me, help me to become enlightened. Which one should I believe? So naturally I wait. When I wait, again I get blamed for that, so long I am here under your feet, still I have not become enlightened. Alright, tell me you have been living under my feet, are you surrendering or pulling my feet? More number of times, people have pulled this leg, then the number of times they worshiped, that is why I sit down and teach. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
==Involvement of Guru & Disciple in Vedic Education==<br />
Vedic Education System is not about giving you some informations, not being bothered about you. It is one of the most subtle and most powerful awakening systems. Awakening means so much of involvement between Guru and disciple is required. That is why in original Indian Education System, Guru and disciple are supposed live together, 24 hours. <br />
Disciple needs to absorb the Guru, not observe, absorb the Guru 24 hours. <br />
<br />
Vedic Education was never a day scholar method. The day scholar method is the non-involvement narrative education system.<br />
<br />
==Modern Day Education - the Non-Involvement Narrative Education System VS Vedic Education - Living with Guru==<br />
<br />
The non-involvement narrative, where the teacher talks to the blackboard, you talk to your neighbor, the classmate, friend or the birds through the window. In the class, if you are all the time gazing through the window, you are going to become a poet. All the time if you are talking to your friend, you are going to become a politician. <br />
The original Vedic Education is such, the teacher sits with the disciples, disciples live with the teacher. 24 hours observing the behavior, the way teacher carries himself. <br />
Modern Day Education - Based on Updation VS Vedic Education - Based on Specialization Method<br />
<br />
The Western education system is based on updating. The more you delay purchase of any IT product, you will get a cheaper and better product, the more you delay you will get a cheaper and better product, because it an updation method. <br />
<br />
Vedic Education is a specialization method. The more number of years you spend on it, the more you will be specialize. Weaving, carving, agriculture, building. That is why in our education system, in our social system, we insisted son doing the job of the father. It is so stupid, it is so stupid that system was questioned, abused, beaten, finally destroyed. Now, we don’t have identity and we are not able to be self-sustaining. Because the stability of our society is destroyed. Earlier we know, every year how many engineers will be produced, who many agriculturists will be produced. The whole society will be so stable. <br />
It is the stability of the society decides the value of your currency.<br />
<br />
==Gurukul - The Future of Education==<br />
The future of education is where the teachers and students live together in one place. If needed let the parents also stay there. But, because basically kids do what you do, they won’t do what you say. Understand they do what you do. They won’t do what you say. Whatever you do, simply they will do. They will never do what you say. Most of the time, they don’t care for what you say. The future of the Indian Education System, I can say, the future of any intelligent education system will be Gurukul system.<br />
<br />
I am not talking out of pride or arrogance, I am taking seeing the future, I am telling you—I will be leading this revival in the education system through our Gurukul system, through our Gurukul system. It is going to be the Gurukuls.<br />
<br />
''In Indian Education System, complete involvement is required from the side of the Teacher and the student. Student needs to study the Teacher; Teacher needs to study the student. Understand, after thoroughly studying the student, teacher identifies the right subject in which the student will be successful. Few things are basic for everyone like science of Completion and Enlightenment. Other than science Enlightenment, all other things, Master selects the subject in which the student will be successful and then student is trained specifically in those fields with the knowledge of Enlightenment, with the science of Enlightenment, with the truth of Enlightenment as the context.<br />
Even if you learn the archery, Enlightenment is the context. If you study administration, Enlightenment is the context, If you learn about business, Enlightenment is the context. If you learn plumbing, building houses, sculpting, Enlightenment is the context. Indian Education System is more of a transmission of the knowledge not transfer of knowledge. It is not just information based. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
==Vedic Education is Education Centric - It Gives the Basic Tools to Explore==<br />
<br />
Our Gurukuls are not teacher centric, our Gurukuls are education centric. <br />
<br />
Student can develop, invent something which his Guru doesn’t know. He has a [[freedom]]. <br />
<br />
Basic tools to awaken knowledge is taught. Then, the student is left free to explore on his own. Gurukuls are not with the set of rules or frame, they only supported people to explore the highest possible creativity. <br />
<br />
Gurukuls are not like dams for your inspiration and energy. It is like an embankment for the wild river. <br />
<br />
That is why many of the Advaita Gurus' disciples were Visistadvaitis or Advaitis, or many of the Visistadvaiti Advaiti Gurus’ disciples were Advaitis. Only the basic analysis scales were given to you but you are left to feely analyse. You are given spoon not spoon-fed. The freedom, freedom itself shows, otherwise you will be shocked Ramanuja’s Guru was a great Advaiti. Being Advaiti, Ramanuja was even able to think in the language of Visishtādvaita shows the freedom available in the Gurukul. And same way there are many Advaitis studied at the feet of Dvaitis or Visistadvaitis. <br />
<br />
Sanatana Hindu Dharma gives only the tools to explore, but it is not putting you any frames, any restrictions, dams. This whole verse, if you read the Shanti Mantra, it is education centric, not teacher centric. <br />
<br />
Unfortunately, in the modern day, because teachers have not taken the [[responsibility]] to be education centric, it has become more teacher centric. <br />
Actually, it is because we are education centric, we were able to explore and reach the new new heights of [[seeking]]. New, new heights of seeking. That is where even the Ishta Devata concept has come. Guru encourages disciple to travel, discover, reinvent, invent their own paths, their own methodologies. He continues to encourage the disciples to explore on their own. Just being available as a good support, guide. Not being heavy on them. I can say, the uniqueness of our Gurukuls are freedom to explore, create, the constructive freedom they enjoyed. Even in our Gurukul, I initiate them into various powers, and let them explore. <br />
<br />
''See when I had enlightenment at the age of 12, the [[Third Eye|third eye]] awakening has happened I was able to see all the 360 degree. I initiated the kids into that power and let them explore. Now they are coming up with too many new, new powers. They are able to download languages, they are doing many more things which I did not do. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam''<br />

<hr />
<div>Dvandva vighna: You will be surprised Mahadeva talks about this. He says, ‘First 2 days you will practice and third day you will fail. It’s called dvandva vigna - immediately after beginning giving a break.’ <br />
<br />
''Even [[Integrity]], [[Completion]], in all these science, you will start ‘Mmm, Swamiji told, I am starting’. But tomorrow morning 4:30 when the alarm rings ‘Swami yavudu, mami yavudu’. Bhoomiye gati. Swami ..’. That is dvandva vighna. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam''<br />
<br />
==Solution for Dvandva Vighna==<br />
Mahadeva says Completion need to be done when the dvandva vighna happens and restart. <br />
<br />
Actually, when the first 2-3 vighna, incompletions break, if you complete and restart, nothing can stop you after it. After that nothing can stop you. <br />
<br />
==Exercise==<br />
Any integrity you missed, any commitment you missed, whether with office, [[sangha]], with family or friends, anything, anybody, anything you missed or the suffocations, incompletions you have which is not letting you manifest powers, you feel stuck, some enmity, enemy, guilt, anger, desire, suffocation, whatever, pen down all that. Pen down whatever [[incompletion]], obstacles. Even if you see something obstacle, pen down what you want to clear to move towards the complete Completion.<br />

Anubhooti & [[Anubhava]] - The Two Sides<br />
http://nithyananda.org/video/anubhuti-anubhava-two-sides-experience#gsc.tab=0<br />
[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Drishti-Srishti&diff=12603Drishti-Srishti2019-04-02T21:10:37Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>In Sanskrit there are two beautiful phrases – “srishti-drishti” and “drishti-srishti”– either you cognize that you are ‘seeing what exists’ or you cognize that you are ‘creating what you want to see’.<br />
<br />
Most of us feel that the reality or the world is as it is, and we are just seeing it, this is called srishti-drishti. Because of this we feel powerless to do anything. We put all the blame on what is. Please understand, when you cognize, ‘It is there! I am seeing it!’, you have already lost the game. You are starting a losing battle! The moment you cognize what ‘is’ is perceived by me, the possibility for transformation is closed. The possibility for enlightenment is closed.<br />
<br />
The truth is, the space we carry inside directly affects the reality which we and the people around us experience. This is drishti-srishti.<br />
<br />
In your mind how you feel things are going to be, the words you give to yourself about the future, that is what I mean by the words ‘the space you create inside’. If you already believe that no matter what you do, it is not going to work out, it is not going to be successful, then you have already dictated the plan to the cosmos! You have told the cosmos, ‘I want my life like this only – as a big failure. Please give it to me!’ The cosmos will stitch it and give it to you.<br />
<br />
==Your Inner Space is an Order to the Cosmos!==<br />
<br />
Please understand, the space you carry inside is not the result of your life’s happenings – it is the order you are giving to the cosmos. You may blame the external situations for your low mood, you may say ‘So many continuous failures happened in my life. You don’t know! Only if you are in my shoes you will understand why I am like this!’ You may give any number of reasons for the space you are in, but you need to understand the seriousness it carries. The space you are in is the direct order you are giving to the cosmos to prepare your future!<br />
<br />
Whatever you carry in your inner space is a possibility. If you are carrying sadness, you are ordering the cosmos for a bigger sadness to come in your life. If you are carrying joy, you are waiting for a bigger joy to come in your life. If you are carrying fulfillment inside you, a feeling of completion in you, you are ordering the cosmos to bring bigger completions in your life. So understand, anything you carry inside is replicated outside. If you feel powerless and don’t know how to change the inner space you are carrying, even then, you are ordering the cosmos to give you more powerlessness.<br />
<br />
==Transform Now!==<br />
<br />
You are a human being. You can’t afford to say, ‘Yes, I have problems. But I don’t know how to transform!’ No! You have to transform. You can’t afford to say, ‘I am hungry but I don’t know how to get food!’ You can’t afford to give up on you. You can’t afford to be powerless. You have to stand up. You have to find the method. You have to transform. That is the only way in which life is possible!<br />
<br />
The space you carry inside you has to be changed. One good news is that you can change it this moment, because space is not something gross. Gross things takes time to clean. Subtle things can be cleaned immediately. Your inner space is such a subtle thing, just one right declaration and you are free! One completion is enough to bring you out of that low mood you are carrying! One right declaration is enough to get out of that deep negative cognition you are carrying!<br />
<br />
==Just Declare your Completion==<br />
<br />
Only one thought of fear can make you unsettled.<br />
Only one thought of lust can make you excited.<br />
Only one thought of your enemy can aggravate anger in you. If this is the case, only one thought of completion can purify your inner space!<br />
<br />
Somehow, you don’t believe that last statement. You think ‘Everything else looks logical, I have experienced it. But the last statement – is it really true?’ Then you say, ‘You are an enlightened being. May be for you it is possible; not for us normal people.’ Whenever you feel you are now cornered to transform, you immediately push me aside with the statement. But you need to know that the inner space can be transformed with just one right declaration.<br />
<br />
==You are Responsible for Everything!==<br />
<br />
Now please understand, can somebody else can be responsible for what you feel inside you? No! It is your boundary! Your inner space is your boundary! Nobody else can be responsible for it. It is only you who can be responsible for it. Even if you feel that somebody else is the reason for your suffering – that person is not suffering! Suffering is to whom? To you! So when something is affecting you, whether you are the reason or not, you are only responsible. The person who is the reason for the mess will not always take the responsibility. So many times when you are the reason for the mess in others’ life, you don’t take the responsibility. Now it is time to take the responsibility for whatever is happening in your inner space, whether you are reason or not.<br />
<br />
==Take Control of your Inner Space==<br />
<br />
The moment you decide you are responsible for the inner space you are carrying, you know you have to change it. Your inner space is nothing but the words you repeat, again and again, within you. Am I right? Is there anything else? So, now decide consciously you will repeat the right words. You say, ‘No, no! I tried this, but I failed!’, you forget and go back to the same old wrong words. How many times have you tried? Ten thousand times you have repeated negative words. So, now try at least ten times to repeat the right words. You may fail ten times. Nothing wrong! Because of the pattern built by you, you are failing. Now try ten times. Bring awareness. Decide, you are the reason, you are responsible, and you have to change it because it is affecting you. Your wrong inner space is directly affecting you. So, naturally you only have to change it. You are responsible.<br />
<br />
The inner space you carry has to be transformed, because based on the inner space only you take your decisions. If you are in a peaceful and relaxed mood, even in the big risks, dangers, difficulties of life you will take the right decision with so much of patience, that even those situations will expand you. If you are in an agitated, frustrated mood you won’t be able to handle even small problems and will throw a tantrum. Just because of the wrong inner space, you often miss business deals, mess up relationships, and stop your expansion in so many dimensions.<br />
<br />
==You are God!==<br />
<br />
Now I want you to understand, whether you believe it or not, whether you accept it or not, understand it or not, you are God! Your inner space is all-powerful! It carries the DNA of ‘Aham Brahmasmi’! No matter how many arguments you give, the constitution cannot be changed. In the same way, no matter how many arguments you give that you are not God and you are not divine and you are not all-powerful, this is the truth. You may say “How can I be all-knowing, all-powerful? I don’t even know what is happening in the next person’s mind, in my spouse’s mind”. You have very silly reasons to deny the possibility of your inner space. You have never tried to explore your inner space. How can you deny it before even trying?<br />
<br />
==What you Resist, Persists!==<br />
<br />
It is just your decision to stand up in your inner space! But the fears you carry look so real that you don’t want to transform. You are ready to anything else, except what needs to be done. Actually, what you don’t want to do is exactly what you have to do! You should be made to do that! Forcibly! Because that is where your inauthenticity is hiding! Please understand, what you resist only persists in your life! It is just pattern! You need to look in, what is the pattern you resist strongly in your life? What is it that you feel you can’t do, you can’t manage? If you look deeper, that will be the exact thing which stops you, binds you and keeps you in life imprisonment! If you look inside, the reason for your powerless inner space will be some root-pattern. Break that pattern! Reclaim your freedom! Declare your freedom!<br />
<br />
Please understand, when Shwethakethu, an Upanishadic character, was initiated by his Guru, his Guru said only nine times “Tat Tvam Asi! Tat Tvam Asi! Tat Tvam Asi!”. Shwethakethu became enlightened! Then why, even if you listen 9,000 times “Tat Tvam Asi”, you don’t become enlightened? It is just because of the inner space.<br />
<br />
==Even your Failures are Success!==<br />
<br />
On a rock, seed cannot sprout as a tree. The seed can become a tree only in the right fertile ground. Only, in the right inner space teachings can become a reality. Decide to start playing with your inner space to gather courage. Tell yourself, ‘Yes, with the inner space of completion, I am declaring, I am in the space for my spouse listening to me!’ You will see miracles will happen! He or she will simply listen to you! When you approach your boss, declare “I am in the space for my boss granting me vacation!” Actually, only when you play with this truth and see miracles happening you will understand the power of your inner space. Don’t go with the idea “I will be a failure!” Then naturally you will be a failure. That itself is the miracle! The failure itself is a success of your inner space!<br />
<br />
Understand, the inner space you carry is such powerful inner space! It is the Hiranya Garbha! It is where worlds get created! Your inner space is so powerful that worlds can be created or destroyed by your inner space! You may be an individual, but your inner space is not individual; it is well-connected with the whole Universe! So, anything you decide in your inner space becomes a reality in the Cosmos, a reality in life, a reality in Existence!<br />

<hr />
<div>==Etymylogy==<br />
Divya means “Divine”, and Sareera means “Body. Divya Sareera means Divine Body<br />
<br />
==Technique to become Divya Sareera==<br />
In Vedagama Shaiva Sampradayas, physical presence of Guru is not only required, it is mandatory. <br />
<br />
===Definition of Divya Sareera===<br />
When you take a clay, and put any impression with your hand, it gets impressed. Once you burn that clay, your hand is imprinted on it forever. The clay becomes a Divya Sareera of your hand. <br />
<br />
Same way, when you bring yourself, and put the Master on you, or put yourself on the Master so strongly, He gets imprinted in you intensely. Now you just manifest his state, space and powers, you are His Divya Sareera. <br />
<br />
Swamiji’s vision for All Aadheenavasis of the Nithyananda [[Sangha]]: Within a year, carve your divya sareera, move yourself to Sameepya Mukti, and manifest Sadashivatva completely and intensely - states, and powers. After three years, wherever you are, you are in [[Shaktipada]]. <br />
<br />
If you want to be extraordinary, you have to do extraordinary things. <br />
<br />
Thousands of years Sanatana Hindu Dharma has kept this great science of producing Divya Sariris alive. All spiritual sampradayas will be relevant to planet earth as long as they are able to produce Divya Sariris. If you are living the state, space and manifesting powers, your Divya Sareera has started getting built. It has started happening. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
===Capture the most subtle Truths===<br />
Anything your brain can capture and enjoy, your life will make that into reality. <br />
<br />
If your brain can capture and enjoy the most subtlest understandings of Cosmic sacred secrets and the spiritual powers, you will just become Yogi, Divya Shariri. If you enjoy the subtle powers, subtle understandings, simply your body will become Divya Shariri, you will become Yogi.<br />
<br />
Balasant is a person whose brain captures all these highest conscious truths, subtle truths while you were young. <br />
<br />
The way your brain captures these subtle truths, simply your body starts manifesting it, you become a Yogi, you become a Divya Shariri, you become embodiment of Mahadeva.<br />
<br />
===Tool to Experience Breakthrough in Thought Currents - The Upanishads===<br />
<br />
''Each Upanishad gives a [[Thought Current|thought current]]. Not an answer. When the thought currents are engaged, when you entertain with the thought currents, you grow a new method of cognizing. A new way of existing. The new way of perceiving. New way of experiencing. That is what I called Divya Sareera. A divine body. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
Mahadeva's breathing is Upanishads. His words are [[Agamas]]. Every breath Mahadeva gave is one [[Thought Current|thought current]] he wants to produce in you. When you do [[Manana]] on the [[Thought Current|thought current]] the Upanishad suggests, you will have the answer. You will have the experiential solution. <br />
<br />
When you entertain with the [[Thought Current|thought current]] of Isavasya Upanishad, the identity crisis will be solved once for all. The pratyakatma-chaitanya-jagrat will happen in you. <br />
If you entertain the [[Thought Current|thought current]] of Kenopanishad you will not get an answer of who created this world. But if you go through the thought current of Kenopanishad you will just KNOW where from this whole thing happened, how it is related to you, how you are related to it, how the whole thing can exist and co-exist in the space of [[completion]]. <br />
If you read Katopanishad, you are experientially liberated from the [[fear]] of death and any powerlessness related to the fear of death. It only tells you to entertain a certain thought current and through that your whole being will become powerful and make sure you see through death. <br />
<br />
Every thought current is experiential. <br />

<hr />
<div>What you perceive as You, which is the source of your experience of your world, your experience of your God, your experience of your Life, is called Depth.<br />
<br />
==Introduction==<br />
All your Cognitions put together, which is the source of your experience of your world, your experience of your God, your experience of your life is Depth.<br />
<br />
Your Depth, your core, your being, your ‘hara’ center, which is the source of your life - how you perceive your life. You may perceive life is beautiful, good, liberating or you may perceive life is bad, cheating exploiting or you may perceive, life is good when I am good, life is bad when I am bad.<br />
<br />
Your Cognitions, your Depth, is the reason and the source to give you the experience of life you have for you. That Depth, that Cognitions, are the bundle of cherished thought currents and memories. <br />
<br />
The Depth is source of your perceptions about life and the same way, it acts like a magnet to attract various situations, persons, places, objects, in your life. It acts like a living magnet. That magnet attracts certain persons in your life, certain situations in your life, certain places in your life.<br />
<br />
''When you bring depth in your actions, simple morning Shiva [[Puja]] is enough, you will be in Shaktipata whole day and night. 7 minutes is too much time. If you are doing Shiva Puja and whole day Shaktipata is not happening, something is seriously wrong with your Depth. Look into the Depth. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
==Change Your Depth Component==<br />
Your Depth is made of your cherished thought currents and memories. <br />
<br />
The good news is, if you change your taste of what you cherish, the thought currents and memories, you can change your Depth, that’s a good news. Cognition change happens in any common man with every [[Ritu]]. Ritu means season. Each Ritu, has a different flow in your energy. Within one Ritu, you can change your cognition. <br />
<br />
If you start cherishing different thought currents, different memories, the cognitive shift will happen, cognitions can be changed, a better culture can be brought in your life, is a good news. <br />
<br />
The great news is truth is always is tasty and sweety. Listen. Truth is always sweet and very tasty. Anywhere you see something which not sweet or tasty, try to find out the depth of the truth in it, not creating self-doubt about it. Whenever there is something, which is not sweet or tasty, try to analyze how much of truth is in that and lies are in that, not focusing on the self-doubt, “ I think somewhere I am wrong.” <br />
<br />
''Things done in Depth level, whether cleaning up of your relationships, cleaning up of your health, cleaning up of your [[wealth]] patterns, cleaning up of your [[completion]], [[incompletion]], anything done in that level does not go away. Stays forever. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Depression&diff=12600Depression2019-04-02T21:10:22Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>Depression is nothing but the mood of the mind which does not flow with life. It is nothing but the energy of your being not being able to cope up with the reality. You have two things – the imaginary life and the real life. Whenever your being does not meet the real life you fall into depression. The conflict between the real life and your being, the reality and your imagination is depression. Most of the time our attachments to the concepts, to the ideologies, to the philosophies, makes us not to move ahead. When society becomes sophisticated, affluent, depression is a luxury. You can have it only when you have other things and not if you don’t have basic needs.<br />
<br />
==Two Types of Depression==<br />
<br />
Depression has two types:<br />
*1) The depression supported by your ego<br />
*2) The depression that makes you feel total inability.<br />
<br />
The depression that makes you feel total inability is better. You will understand that you need help from outside. The depression that is supported by your ego will be interested only in the solutions which you feel are solutions. So you may expect some teacher who will support your solution which you already have, which you strongly believe in, even in depression. Depression is not wrong, but depression supported by your ego is something seriously wrong. Even if you have depression, there is every possibility you can be saved if your ego is not supporting your depression. If your ego is supporting your depression you will not listen to the master’s teachings. You will listen only to the teacher who is ready to support your depression, your understanding, your ambition, your ideas, your thoughts. Even if the teacher is trying to move a little away from your conclusions you will shout at them. The worst thing that can happen to a jeeva (soul), the worst mess he can create for himself is supporting his depression by his ego. Depression itself is not wrong. But while you expect your own solution and expect the master to support your solution, you are in a big soup. You can’t be saved. Naturally you will start searching for a teacher who will support your ego. By fulfilling ego you can never walk out of depression.<br />
<br />
==The Science of Depression==<br />
<br />
Human being is a great potential bound by distracting, deluding kind of a net, prison. Every single cell of you is having a kind of a covering. That covering constantly represents mortality, delusion. Your cell is constantly struggling to experience immortality. Every single cell in your body, which is the smallest unit in the physical body and thought – the smallest unit in the mental body and the pure light in your conscious body – all put together constitute as the cell. All your smallest units are directly connected. All your smallest units are covered by delusion. In each level your smallest unit is struggling to break from that delusion. At body level that struggle is to get rid of disease and death. At the mental level that struggle is to get rid of depression and disorders. At the conscious level that struggle is to get rid of the delusion and achieve [[enlightenment]]. So the point to be understood here is that all your struggles are nothing but struggles to achieve enlightenment. Start struggling directly, you will not waste your time and energy in diluted, diverted attention or direction or decisions. Your struggle to get out of depression is rooted in the same unit where your struggle for enlightenment also happens.<br />
<br />
===The Only Way Out is In===<br />
<br />
Even when you have the small struggles, look into the smallest unit where that struggle is happening – that cell, where that struggle is happening. Whenever all the struggles in you are aligned, immediately you are out of delusion. Delusion is nothing but thinking or believing that all these struggles are independent of each other.<br />
<br />
===Don’t Resist!===<br />
<br />
Your being needs its own space. Your being needs a little bit of [[aloneness]]. But your resistance to give aloneness, your resistance to give space for your being only creates depression. Depression is like a black hole. If you don’t resist and enter into it, it can create a big bang. As long as you resist, depression is a death. When you allow it to happen, it just rejuvenates you totally. When you live totally you will know how to leave totally. If you know how to get depressed totally, you will know how to express yourself totally. The very word depression has a condemnation to it. You do not want to get depressed. You resist continuously with the depression. You resist the black hole. That is why you never let the big bang happen.<br />
<br />
===From Depression to Expression===<br />
<br />
Depression has become our nature now. Using the depression as a method is the only way to reach the divine, the way to reach the deep state of expression. As long as you resist the depression, except some more problems, nothing else can be achieved. No medication can help depression. As long as you fight your depression, there is no way to come out of it. It is like fighting with your own shadow. Depression is the seed of expression and expression is the way to depression. They are just cycles of life and death. They are nothing but peak and valley of your being. Peak of your being is expression. Peak of your valley is depression. If you know how to go deep with the depression, how to travel with the depression, then even depression cannot depress you. The very idea of depression will be lost. You can label any experience as a depression or as an expression. It is just your label which makes something as depression or something as expression.<br />
<br />
===Knowledge Weapons to Combat Depression===<br />
<br />
Truth from shaastra – shashtras (knowledge weapon) can create ecstasy in the inner space and energy to expand in outer space. Unless you have the courage to go near the truth, the real healing will never happen. When you fall into depression the thoughts which bring you out of the depression, the clarity which brings you out of the depression are the self-healing thoughts which are actually created by shaastra-shastras. Whenever depression attacks you, life brings different scenes in front of you, during which the shaastra-shastras (knowledge weapons) can be used so powerfully that you can just come out of the depression. The more and more you accumulate the self-healing thoughts inside your system, you will see that depression will have [[fear]] to come near you. If you want the truth to do the process of healing in you, it has to be digested, internalized. When these truths are added in to you, you will completely re-think, you will re-design your whole life. When the load is taken out of your inner space, there is nothing but healing.<br />
<br />
===Power of a Feeling Connection With the Divine===<br />
<br />
Feeling connection to something which is higher than you, either God or Guru, nullifies things from the constant harassment you go through from your body and mind. Feeling connection is the ground where, if the seeds of truth are sown, they become the reality of experience, the tree of experience. There are problems which may not be solved by [[unclutching]], which will be solved by a feeling connection. The pains which you can’t heal, the problems which you can’t get out by unclutching, can be solved only by a feeling connection with something higher than you. A lot of things with which your ignorance survives, a lot of things with which your mind thrives, a lot of things on which your suffering is built, will be taken away from you. Feeling connection with the divinity is the capacity to convert the wisdom into lifestyle with expression, not depression.<br />
<br />
==Deeper Truths of Depression==<br />
<br />
According to the Vedic healing sciences, depression is not a physical disease at all, but the extreme suffocation of the being. <br />
<br />
It is caused and characterized by the shrinking of the subtle body. <br />
<br />
We rarely notice the subtle body unless it is stimulated or disturbed in some way. Have you ever felt suddenly suffocated when entering a small room or a cave, even though there is plenty of oxygen and enough space for the physical body to move around? The pressure you feel is the shrinking of the subtle body that is actually our breathing space and emotional-mental boundary. <br />
<br />
One of the primary causes of climbing juvenile depression rates is suppression due to parental and social influences. Children are being exposed to overwhelming amounts of physical and emotional information and at an age when they are barely equipped to handle it, either physiologically or emotionally. Simultaneously, they are subjected to the severe demands of a rapidly changing lifestyle, parental expectations and peer pressure which suppress their free expression from all sides. The resultant suffocation is depression. <br />
<br />
In the initial stages of the disorder, this shrinking of the subtle body happens due to external causes. Since the subtle body also contains our [[prana]] (life-force) reserves, the shrinking of this body plunges us into an energy low, ensuring that we never have sufficient resources to climb back out into normalcy. Unfortunately, this shrunken way of existing gradually becomes part of the bio-memory (cellular memory), casting a shadow of depression over one’s life for no reason.<br />
<br />
A state of mild, causeless depression is a modern urban disorder that has practically become a way of life for millions today. <br />
<br />
===The spiritual way out of depression===<br />
<br />
Inner expansion is the only permanent cure for depression! <br />
<br />
Although depression can be helped by the right diet, proper sleep and cultivation of meaningful life goals, none of these can offer a permanent solution. <br />
<br />
By nature, human beings are hard-wired for continuous evolution and expansion. Spiritual living is nothing but constantly expanding beyond the boundaries created by the body and mind. For exactly this reason, a period of deep depression can become a transformational period in your life. <br />
<br />
Experiencing a powerful sense of suffocation automatically forces us to seek expansion in some form. At this time, if the patient is given a spiritual solution like meditation, we can ensure that he or she does not fall prey to substance abuse or suicide. <br />
<br />
In Vedic medical science, depression is linked to energy blockages in the sahasrara chakra (crown energy center). This chakra is literally a channel to receive cosmic energies. The health of this chakra depends on how open and available we are to the influx of Divine energies. <br />
<br />
While techniques like prayer and meditation can help melt down the resistance to these energies, [[yoga]] can help ‘lock’ these changes into our system, so that the transformational energy garnered during these processes does not drain away in regressive and self-defeating behavior. <br />
<br />
One powerful way to get out of depression is to shift the focus of one’s life away from oneself. <br />
<br />
Caring selflessly for another person, especially for a child or an infirm person, is a highly effective way of expanding beyond oneself.<br />
<br />
Post-partum depression is the unfortunate product of a generation that has never experienced the joy of genuinely giving and caring selflessly for another being. While hormonal imbalances and social influences are real contributors to depression and cannot be ignored, chronic depression can be flushed out of the system only by a proper understanding of its root cause. The ideal healing process would involve an intelligent mix of lifestyle changes, a sound appreciation of possible causes and solutions, a strong attitudinal shift, some yoga training, and a steady spiritual practice.<br />
<br />
==Spiritual Powers Remove Depression From Your Life==<br />
Whether we feel depressed or not has to do with the amount of contact we are having with life. For many people, that contact point is just a needle point. When even that goes, we feel depressed. <br />
<br />
With spiritual powers, our cognition of us changes. Enlightenment is the moment where our contact point with life has become full skin surface level. Because of spiritual powers manifesting in our lives, our love for Life and Guru (who is our connection to Life) drastically increases.<br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Deeksha&diff=12599Deeksha2019-04-02T21:10:16Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>Deeksha means ‘initiation’ or the direct transfer of spiritual energy by an [[avatar]] through a touch, a word or a look.<br />
<br />
With a single gesture, an Avatar can cause a spontaneous, incredible transformation in us on every level. Miraculous healing of diseases, intellectual clicks, mystical experiences and the wiping out of lifetimes of karmas can happen in a matter of days – sometimes minutes! <br />
<br />
==Scriptural references==<br />
Deeksha is revered in the Vedic tradition as the ultimate gift that a master can confer upon his disciple on the spiritual path. In the ancient text Rudrayamala Tantra, Lord Shiva says:<br />
<br />
The one who is not initiated does not attain liberation nor a better future. So by all efforts, one should get initiated by Guru.<br />
<br />
Explanation<br />
When the transmission of knowledge happens entirely by the disciples’ effort, it is called a teaching. When the master puts in some effort and the disciple puts in most of the effort, it is called a technique. When the same knowledge is transmitted with only a little effort on the disciple’s part, it is called a process. When a disciple simply sits in the Master’s presence in a receptive and unclutched mood, and the experience itself is directly transmitted from the Master’s bio-memory to the disciple’s, without any effort from the disciple’s part, it is called initiation.<br />
<br />
This experience could be anything – it could be physiological changes or psychological transformation or just conscious ecstasy or deep restful awareness.<br />
<br />
==Three kinds of initiation==<br />
The avatar initiates you in three ways – through a look (Nayana deeksha or chakshu deeksha), through a word (Mantra deeksha) or through touch (Sparsha deeksha).<br />
<br />
===Nayana Deeksha===<br />
For highly receptive disciple, even a side-glance from the Master’s eyes is an initiation. Such a glance is revered in Vedic tradition as ‘guru kataasksham’. <br />
<br />
Thanks to modern video-conferencing technologies, devotees gather everyday in Nithyananda Vedic temples and [[satsang]] centers around the world for Nayana Deeksha, waiting for the master’s glance to fall upon them. Every nayana deeksha is followed by reports of spontaneous healing, intellectual ‘clicks’ and spiritual clarity, proving that time and space are no barriers to the power of an avatar’s initiation.<br />
<br />
===Mantra Deeksha===<br />
In the East, language has always been used not only to communicate information, but to transmit certain vibrations. Sanskrit, the world’s oldest living language, is highly phonetic in nature. Certain syllables or combinations of syllables in Sanskrit are called Mantras. Each mantra carries a unique vibrational power. <br />
<br />
When a Avatar gives you Mantra deeksha, he transmits the vibrational power of the mantra to you. The vibrations of the mantra straightaway penetrate your being and start working on you, even if you don’t understand their meaning.<br />
<br />
===Sparsha Deeksha===<br />
Certain specialized kinds of initiation, like the initiation into becoming a spiritual healer, require direct physical contact for the transmission of bio-memory. This kind of initiation usually involves the guru placing his hand upon the disciple’s head, heart chakra, or brow chakra and forcing the energy to move inwards and upwards. This is known as sparsha deeksha – initiation through touch.<br />
<br />
==Benefits==<br />
===Most effortless and blissful way to raise our spiritual frequency===<br />
Deeksha is the most effortless and blissful way to raise our spiritual frequency. A moment’s deeksha received in a mood of intense surrender can bring about more irreversible transformation in your life than years of meditation and spiritual practice.<br />
<br />
===Redesigning your software and hardware===<br />
Deeksha works on three levels – the conscious mind, the unconscious mind and the physical body.<br />
<br />
Even in the absence of a master, the conscious mind can be cleared by the right teachings, by removing the wrong ideas and taking in clear and correct ideas. The unconscious mind can be cleansed by meditation techniques. But ultimately, for the software change to be permanent, the hardware also has to change. The very brain grooves have to change to hold and radiate the experience of living [[enlightenment]]. This can happen through deeksha.<br />
<br />
When a master touches and initiates you, not only is the software of enlightened physiology downloaded into you, but the hardware, the brain itself, will be tuned to hold this new software by the grace of the master. If you are completely open during the touch, the software of enlightened physiology can be downloaded into you, changing your very physiology. Your body learns that it can be better than what it is now! When you have the grace of the master, both the hardware and software can be totally changed.<br />
<br />
==Deeksha and Kundalini Awakening==<br />
Deeksha results in the spontaneous awakening of the [[Kundalini]], our own highest inner potential energy. Research in neuroscience has proved that deeksha floods the body and brain with Kundalini energy.<br />
<br />
When Kundalini ascends the spine through the sushumna nadi (the main channel of subtle energy), it results in a huge energy influx into the brain. As it flows from the thalamus to the cortex, Kundalini sets up a powerful energy loop within the brain which awakens the latent, non-mechanical parts which we have never used before. With increasing levels of coherence, the whole brain comes alive, turning into a superconductor of conscious energies that heal, empower and transform our lives. Enhanced awareness levels, greater creativity and extraordinary abilities start to express through us like [[levitation]], [[teleportation]] and materialization. This influx of superconscious energy also visibly slows down the ageing process and improve immunity to disease.<br />
<br />
==Initiation manifests your deepest desires==<br />
Initiation has the power to open up your real desires and empower them to become reality.<br />
If your blueprint is carrying a desire for money, it will open up and fill you with money, if your blueprint is [[seeking]] for God or for Guru you will have that, if your blueprint is searching for extraordinary powers you will have that.<br />
<br />
Initiation is like hatching the egg that you are – into the bird that you can be.<br />
<br />
The Master hatches you through all these three- through his teachings, through constant remembrance of you wherever you are, and through his initiation. He hatches you into a new being. He makes you into very his Self.<br />
<br />
==Benefits of group initiation==<br />
Group initiation is a tremendous experience! When a cohesive group of people sit together in a mood of meditation and receptivity, their systems fall into a deep harmonious resonance with each other. The whole group is like one organic entity. Moreover, each of you is individually in entanglement with me, with the Source. Each of you is like a spoke of the wheel, all attached to central hub which is the source of cosmic energy. So every time I initiate once person in the group, the same energy is instantaneously transmitted to the entire group.<br />
<br />
So when you sit in 21 sessions of Inner Awakening, as part of a group of 100 participants, you are actually receiving 2,100 initiations!!<br />
<br />
''Group initiation has one more benefit. When I initiate you, I loosen and activate your bio-memory, preparing it for learning new things. So when you see somebody else expressing an extraordinary power like levitation, your bio-memory learns that such a possibility exists. Within a few days, your bio-memory picks up that particular power – even if you have not received that particular initiation from me! When you live in a [[sangha]] or spiritual community where many such powers are continuously expressed, your bio-memory simply opens up and starts living its highest possibilities. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
==Science of Deeksha==<br />
<br />
===The Principle of Entanglement===<br />
{{#hsimg:1|300| Darshan | http://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2017-3mar-9th-nithyananda-diary_DSC_9779_bengaluru-aadheenam-IA-Day12-shivoham-day1-sadashiva%20darshan-swamiji.jpg?1489506134 }}<br />
<br />
Entanglement is a term used in quantum theory to describe the way that particles of energy/matter can become correlated to interact with each other in predictable ways, regardless of how far apart they are. Which means that the state and actions of one of these particles can influence the state and actions of the other through the process of interference.<br />
<br />
Entanglement is the principle behind all processes involving energy transfer, whether spiritual healing, kundalini awakening, levitation, teleportation or materialization. <br />
<br />
An [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]] has the power to raise others into his own elevated state by the subtle pressure of his presence. When the mind of the receiver comes in touch with the no-mind (thought-free mind) of such a being, a process similar to entanglement happens, and thoughts subside in the mind of the receiver. Entanglement happens when the receiver is mentally in tune with the source and is open to receiving the energy. eg. during spiritual healing.<br />
<br />
When entanglement happens at the deeper level of muscle-memory, Nithyananda gives it the name ‘Entrainment’. During Kundalini awakening, entanglement can happen irrespective of the mental state of the receiver.<br />
<br />
During initiation, entanglement penetrates the bio-memory of the receiver. That is why initiation has permanent physiological and psychological effects. Nithyananda calls this Enlightenment, in the sense that during the moment of initiation, the receiver actually experiences a space identical to that of the [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]]. But lacking the yogic body and nervous system to retain this space, the receiver gradually loses the experience through energy ‘leaks’.<br />
<br />
With repeated initiations, the powerful positive experience is bolted into your body and becomes part of your bio-memory, releasing you from negative mental patterns that you have carried for many lives.<br />
<br />
==Initiation and the Brain==<br />
Neuroplastic science says that your brain has the ability to create new grooves and pathways. Which means that the possibility for becoming a new consciousness exists.<br />
<br />
Initiation can change not just your mind, but your very brain. With initiation, your brain develops subtle grooves to hold and radiate the energy of enlightenment. If it is only a psychological transformation, it could leave you after a few weeks or months. But initiation is not just psychological but physiological transformation. The experience becomes your very bio-memory, so there is no more scope for conflict.<br />
Apart from the brain and neural pathways, we have a network of 72,000 nadis or energy channels through which Kundalini energy and the subtle information essential to our conscious evolution can be transmitted. Of these, the koorma nadi, a channel running from the tip of the middle finger right up to the heart is the koorma nadi, the nadi through which the glimpse of enlightenment is released by the Master and received by the disciple during initiation.<br />
<br />
==Initiation awakens your DNA==<br />
Medical science has established that we have 12 strands of DNA, but only two of these strands are active! An avatar is a being who has awakened all 12 strands of his DNA. Through initiation, an Avatar can simply alter your existing DNA and activate your unused DNA strands. The true purpose of this so-called ‘junk DNA’ is to support a multi-dimensional consciousness, and initiation awakens this possibility.<br />
<br />
initiation is like a intense downloading into you. When your DNA is activated, the knowledge and consciousness and information in the avatar’s bio memory can be effortlessly transmitted to you without any conventional methods. With every new strand awakened, you start experiencing [[freedom]] from negative engrams, intellectual and spiritual clarity, physical health, anti-ageing and the expression `of extraordinary powers.<br />
<br />
==Karmic cleansing and reprogramming==<br />
{{#hsimg:1|300| Darshan | http://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/2017-2feb-26th-nithyananda-diary_DSC_9479_bengaluru-aadheenam-IA-Day1-sadashiva-darshan-swamiji.jpg?1488293564 }}<br />
<br />
Every deeksha at Inner Awakening is an extraordinary spectacle of energy play that could last for hours . During deeksha, Nithyananda creates an explosion of superconscious energy, using divyashareeris (mediums or energy channels) to intensify the spiritual process. Releasing more than 15 times the usual power through his body, he channels it through the divyashareeris to reach the participants from every angle.<br />
<br />
Nithyananda says, “When the energy channels sit in a circle around me in a mood of deep devotion and surrender, I am able to penetrate right through their physical bodies. They become divyashareeris, extensions of my own physical body. So when a participant enters this elevated space, he is enveloped by my physical body itself, not just my energy body. If he is totally open and receptive, I can use that high-possibility moment to simply wipe out his negative bio-memories and create a blissful, strong bio-memory through karmic cleansing and reprogramming. To the extent that the participant is receptive, he can experience physical and mental transformation.”<br />
<br />
The group energy during deeksha is so intense that more than 80% of the participants receive the initiation spontaneously, even before they are touched and initiated! For most participants, deeksha is a never-before experience of intense kundalini awakening in a perfectly safe environment.<br />
<br />
===Sharing the Experience===<br />
Only from a fire can another fire be lit.<br />
Only from a living master can the transmission of the lamp happen.<br />
<br />
A master who is on the subtle plane may be able to offer you spiritual guidance, but for the experience to settle in you as a physical reality, it has to be transmitted from a body which is vibrating at the same frequency as your own. Only the already reprogrammed DNA of the living master can transmit that frequency and reprogram your DNA. Only a living bio-memory can share its experience directly with yours through a look, a word or a touch of initiation.<br />
<br />
==Initiation is the final push==<br />
{{#hsimg:1|270| Darshan | http://www.nithyananda.org/sites/default/files/photo-gallery/017-3mar-6th-nithyananda-diary_DSC_5429_bengaluru-aadheenam-IA-Day9-darshan-swamiji.jpg?1488914299<br />
}}<br />
<br />
No matter how much knowledge you have gathered, no matter how many spiritual experiences you have, the ultimate breaking open of the limited identity does not happen without deeksha. The ego will never be ready to commit suicide! That final push has to happen from the Master. When an avatar initiates you, he pushes you into the same state, the same highest conscious coherence as he is established in.<br />
<br />
On your part, it is nothing needs to be done but opening your being to the Master. For a disciple who is available to the Master, a single moment of initiation can destroy many lifetimes of conditioning. Initiation is like setting fire to an enormous pile of cotton. No matter how enormous the pile of your [[karma]], it takes only a single spark of initiation to destroy it. All you need to do is allow it to be burnt!<br />
<br />
===Research on Inner Awakening Participants (2011)===<br />
<br />
In a breakthrough series of studies conducted in 2011, the benefits of Kundalini initiation were systematically recorded under controlled conditions in close to 600 individuals attending an intensive [[yoga]] and meditation retreat at Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam’s international headquarters near Bangalore,India.<br />
<br />
<br />
Findings<br />
<br />
*1. Cellular energy levels assessed through mitochondrial tests:<br />
Mitochondria are the energy powerhouses of the human cell. Mitochondrial activity in the cell is a precise indicator of the individual’s metabolism rate and energy levels. 100% of the participants in this particular study recorded a drastic increase in energy levels, averaging 967%. Studies have shown that such an increase is clearly impossible through any other known means, such as exercise, yoga or fitness training, which can effect a maximum of 50% increase in cellular energy. <br />
<br />
*2. Healing of physical ailments<br />
<br />
Rapid recovery from a range of physical ailments was observed, also indicating enhanced immunity levels:<br />
100% of participants recorded significant weight loss<br />
100% of participants recorded recovery from eating disorders<br />
100% of participants recorded recovery from chronic fatigue<br />
92% of participants showed marked recovery from rheumatoid arthritis<br />
78% of participants showed marked recovery from osteo-arthritis<br />
79% of participants showed marked recovery from asthma<br />
71% of participants showed marked recovery from chronic headaches<br />
Participants also recorded lowering of fasting blood sugar, decreased BMI and improvement in psychosomatic illnesses and auto-immune diseases.<br />
<br />
*3. Healing of psychological disorders<br />
<br />
Decreased dependency on medication and enhanced sense of well-being<br />
97% of participants reported recovery from [[depression]]<br />
89% of participants reported freedom from phobias<br />
82% of participants reported freedom from anger and frustration<br />
88% of participants showed marked recovery from insomnia<br />
76 % of participants reported recovery from panic attacks<br />
76% of participants reported freedom from insecurity<br />
73 % of participants reported an increase in mental focus<br />
71% of participants reported freedom from mood swings<br />
<br />
===Neurological changes through QEEG studies===<br />
A series of QEEG studies were also conducted on participants who had Kundalini initiation to study the effects of Kundalini Awakening on electrical activity in the brain. The same studies were also conducted on a control group. These included:<br />
Short term effects observed at the moment of initiation by Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
Long term effects measured through post-activation assessment of various mental and cognitive functions<br />
<br />
Findings:<br />
At the moment of initiation, certain instantaneous changes were recorded in all participants who had active Kundalini awakening, including:<br />
* sharper focusing abilities<br />
* higher alertness levels<br />
* extremely rapid multi-processing<br />
* better short-term memory<br />
<br />
Significantly, the brain waves of subjects during the activation showed a high incidence of delta waves, indicating that they were in a state of deep relaxation comparable to sleep. In Vedic science, this state of intense restful awareness is known as Samadhi.<br />
Post-activation assessment conclusively showed:<br />
QEEG studies of participants showing high incidence of delta waves, indicative of deep relaxation<br />
*Better problem-solving abilities<br />
*More effective decision-making<br />
*Enhanced interpersonal relations<br />
*Warm and positive personality trends<br />
<br />
*4. Genetic Transformation – breakthrough results<br />
DNA is as essential molecule found in all human cells, which controls the body’s growth, structure, metabolism and immune functions. It carries the genetic information passed on from generation to generation.<br />
<br />
Human beings have about 25,000 genes, of which only 5% are actively expressed and functional.<br />
Differential gene expression studies conducted on Inner Awakening participants before and after the program registered the spontaneous expression of new genes – a phenomenon that is impossible to reproduce through any other known means.<br />
<br />
Findings:<br />
*Greatly increased immune modulation<br />
*Increased immunity to cancer<br />
*Clinical improvement in rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia and other chronic [[pain]] conditions<br />
*Significant recovery from asthma<br />
*Significant improvements in memory<br />
<br />
5. Extraordinary abilities – materialization <br />
Materialization is the creation of matter from energy. In the only known instance of materialization on our planet today, a vast range of objects were materialized by Paramahamsa Nithyananda, channeled through the bodies of receptive individuals. Materials ranging from [[vibhuti]] ([[Sacred Ash|sacred ash]]) and [[kumkum]] (holy vermilion) to solid objects like diamond, pearl, solidified mercury, etc. were produced through devotees who were either physically present or communicating with Paramahamsa Nithyananda through video-conferencing.<br />
Three different scientific tests were conducted on a volunteer through whom Nithyananda consistently materialized objects:<br />
*Whole body CT scan<br />
*Simultaneous QEEG of Paramahamsa Nithyananda and the subject <br />
<br />
FIindings:<br />
Whole body CT scans taken before and after Kundalini Awakening clearly shows the sudden appearance of a radio-opaque foreign body in the oral cavity on repeat scan without any delay or repositioning after the energy transfer from Nithyananda to the subject.<br />
QEEG recording of both Nithyananda and the subject done showed “Entrainment” (Synchronicity) in the brain waves of both individuals during the process of materialization, showing that a process of attunement was indeed taking place at the time.<br />
<br />
===Sharings===<br />
Brahmanya, Student, CA, USA<br />
<br />
There are very few rare moments in the life, that are as filled with wonder, content and<br />
fulfillment. Energy [[darshan]] is all those moments in one moment and much more.<br />
Initiation is the culmination of a lifetime of yearning that I felt. It is the ultimate moment<br />
that gives life the ultimate momentum!<br />
<br />
Dasarathi, engineering manager-hardware - San Jose, California, USA<br />
<br />
During Darshan when he reads my letters, I see tremendous compassion with<br />
which he answers and blesses each of my prayers and says I will take care, I am<br />
with you. Its such a melting feeling and a protective feeling like a mother taking<br />
the child in her hold.<br />
<br />
Nithya Lokanayaki Ananda, Business Owner - Diamond Bar, CA, USA<br />
<br />
My life was struggle after struggle, always seeking happiness in the wrong areas. Once Swamiji initiated me, my shattered life came together as a whole. Now I can say I am alive!<br />
<br />
Ma Nithya Sarvasmarana, Yoga Instructor - LA, USA<br />
<br />
Even if you don’t ask Him a question verbally, He answers! It’s an indescribable cosmic connection.<br />
<br />
Mahima Reddy, Physician’s assistant - Apple Valley, USA<br />
<br />
During Healer’s initiation, I experienced a huge ball of light entering my Ananda Gandha chakra.<br />
<br />
Ma Nithya Atma - AitaLoma, CA, USA<br />
<br />
During initiation, Swamiji would just look at me or touch me lightly, and everything would go blank. I would be conscious only of tremendous joy. If I was struggling with something, it would simply dissolve.<br />

[[Category: Definitions]]</div>Ma.shaktiroopahttps://nithyanandapedia.org/index.php?title=Decision_Fatigue&diff=12598Decision Fatigue2019-04-02T21:10:10Z<p>Ma.shaktiroopa: </p>
<hr />
<div>Decision Fatigue is the fatigue which happens to you by making decisions. It is based on the premise that decisions are complex and take a lot of mental resources and therefore one needs to be tired at the end of the day. Such a person will look to relax and be pampered at any given opportunity.<br />
<br />
Many times, it is when an individual thinks, thinks, and thinks, but does not take even the first step. One of the biggest obstacles that stops a person from doing great things, or manifesting powers is the stupid idea of ‘Decision fatigue’.<br />
<br />
==Introduction== <br />
Take a person responsible for a building being built. For most people involved, nothing is being done other than making few phone calls. But everyone is tired, fatigued, thinking they are doing a lot.<br />
<br />
But nobody is building anything! Even if the construction is happening, what someone would actually be doing would be only calling a few people and meeting them, nothing else. If a post-mortem is done about exactly what’s happening, it boils down to making phone calls and talking, and at the most, signing a few papers, that’s it.<br />
<br />
But people are so arrogant, they don’t want to believe that they are not doing anything. They thrive on pampering themselves with arrogance. To cheat others, they start saying, “I’m doing this, I’m doing that.” And finally, they themselves start believing and get cheated by it.<br />
<br />
Getting cheated by one’s own self is what is called ‘fatigue-decision’ or ‘decisions of fatigue’. When the decision-making leads to fatigue, one decides to be arrogant. Getting fatigued, comes from believing that one is doing great things. Decision fatigue results in arrogance and destroys life. The [[Maya Matrix]] always pampers it. <br />
<br />
If one understands that, they will be a light being, they will be young forever. Decision-making is an easy way of existence.<br />
<br />
Whatever be one’s achievement in this world, till one experiences and manifests Sadashivatva, they are replaceable. Only if they manifest Sadashivatva, they are worthy of being reproducible.<br />
<br />
This is the way every day you should measure yourself – what is the purpose of life? Manifesting Sadashivatva in me, and helping others to manifest Sadashivatva... yesterday, you had the World and you had you. What did you do to manifest Sadashivatva in you and into the World?<br />
<br />
==The Feeling of “No Time Available”==<br />
The feeling of ‘no time available’ is the lowest level of [[Integrity]]. As Paramahamsa Nithyananda calls it, you are a “thought pornography addict”. This means that for example, to build a hall, you will think about it 2000 times, but you will not even make a single phone call to make it into reality, to get the yellow pages book to call the contractor. <br />
The highest [[wealth]] is taking life causally, having clarity about your goal, being ground reality based, and knowing you have plenty of time that you can go on be doing what you want and have to do, using this body and mind you have. And when this body and mind is worn out, you can drop it and pick up another one body and mind and continue to do what you are supposed to do. This is the greatest luxury you can have in life.<br />
<br />
==The Feeling of Being Overwhelmed==<br />
Decision Fatigue is the only cause of feeling overwhelmed. Feeling overwhelmed is saying no to life; it develops a strong powerlessness [[pattern]] in you. For example, the moment you hear – Swamiji asked me to build a 20,000 sq. feet meditation hall, you think “Aaah, I have not even built a 2000 square feet home in my life. It is the first time. I don’t know what I am going to do. I never did this...” Immediately, you start feeling overwhelmed. <br />
<br />
The way to act is “Yes, 20,000 sq. feet meditation hall, what am I supposed to do? First phone call - get me yellow pages. Second phone call - call the contractors, third phone call - sit and talk to them and study, fourth phone call - try to make deeper understandings and pen down a contract.” <br />
<br />
Do not think - I have not done this. Remember, life itself you are living for first time. Everyday is first time. <br />
<br />

Live 100s of years; means do not feel overwhelmed. Do not say NO to life. Say YES to life. Feeling overwhelmed is one of the worst cunning ways of saying no to life. It is a sin against yourself, atma hatya papa, atma hatya dosha. Feeling overwhelmed is equivalent to saying NO to life. Don’t do that crime to yourself.<br />
<br />
==Live with the inner space of a Varnashrama Brahmin, not the Chandallatva of decision fatigue==<br />
A Brahmana who lives the proper Brahmanatva, will go on be making decision being grounded in reality; without getting caught into this Maya Matrix. A Brahmana established in Brahmanatva runs the whole kingdom and the society by making decisions. But he cannot even afford to think he should be pampered. <br />
That is why he decides to live in poverty forever and sambhavana forever without charging or making any money equivalent to his services. The moment a Brahmana decides his service is equivalent to certain money and he himself starts believing he is no more a Brahmana, he is Chandala. He will develop Decision Fatigue. <br />
The person who is grounded in Reality, who goes on making decisions and supporting the society and country to flourish, he should be showered all the respects and all the best things; but he himself never falls into Decision Fatigue.<br />
<br />
Chandallatva of decision fatigue is nothing but thinking too much about yourself just because you gave an idea about how a [[temple]] should be constructed and somebody else is constructing. The large temples our Masters, Kings, and Gurus built, you will rarely in one corner of a pillar see their statues. It is so small, negligible. For example, you have to do so much research to find where Rajaraja’s statue is in Thanjavur temple, where Vallalla Maharaja’s statue is in Tiruvannamalai temple; because they never had a decision fatigue. If they had decision fatigue they would have thought they are too big and they would have put their statues prominently in a big way.<br />
<br />
==Pitta Layer and Decision Fatigue==<br />
When you develop Decision Fatigue, it physically becomes a pitta layer on your brain. When you allow that pitta layer to remain, the decision fatigue becomes your muscle memory and bio-memory. It is a vicious cycle you are caught in. If you break the pitta layer, you will get into the virtuous circle - more joy, less pitta layer, less Decision Fatigue; it just becomes virtuous circle. <br />
<br />
==Decision Fatigue in the Maya Matrix==<br />
When you feel you are not okay with the Maya Matrix, there is a part of you that is falling in love with going beyond the Maya Matrix. However, there is still some part of you that is not ready to compromise, which wants to fall into that deep sleep again. Whenever there is this part of you that rebels and resists, Decision Fatigue is used as a high dosage to put you back into that slumber.<br />
<br />
Just one blow of Decision Fatigue can put you back to the slumber. It is like purposely somebody is kept in coma; even if they come out, just one dosage of medicine is all that is needed for them to go back to coma. <br />
<br />
Decision Fatigue steals your life from you. Decision Fatigue directly tires your liver and intestine. Decision Fatigue directly affects your existence.<br />
<br />
==Move out of Decision Fatigue==<br />
The person who makes you believe you are doing too much, is robbing your life. Person who makes you believe nothing is being done, relax, be cool, is making you younger and He takes away arrogance part of you, gives life to you. Become bold not bald. It is such simple seeing through.<br />
<br />
The decision fatigue is a fatigue decision. When you are tired, when you are bored, irritated, angry, even one small stone that you decided that somebody should move, you think, “Wow, what a job I have done and I am not given a credit and the [[responsibility]], my value is not respected. Now I need few hours of golf and few glass of wine and bar and club and pub and dance and what not, I should be pampered by now and because so much I have done. Everything which is denied for common man should be provided for me now because I have done so much.”<br />
[[Tiredness]] comes by the decision-making and you deciding to entertain that tiredness and out of that tiredness, making more and more stupid decisions that you are too big. How much ever big you may be, till you experience, manifest Sadashivatva, you are replaceable.<br />
<br />
Only if you manifest Sadashivatva, you are worthy of being reproducible. As long as you start manifesting Sadashivatva, you are just replaceable.<br />
<br />
==Solution for Decision Fatigue==<br />
Integrity will ground you and get you out of Decision Fatigue. <br />
If the Decision Fatigue becomes your bio-memory and muscle-memory, selling yourself constantly to your boss, you also start believing, after sometime your value is more or less like , if he is not there things will collapse, not that if he is there he is going to contribute. Understand. Your value for the team is contributing is one scale, the other way if he is not there it will collapse. If he is not there it will collapse means you have built your bio-memory and personality based on Decision Fatigue and you keep only rain in your control, you are not contributing, [[enriching]]. It should always be, you should be remembered for the contributions you make not because you keep the reins under your control, in your hand. This one thing Integrity can grow roots for you and make you excel, live. Excel, live can make the Decision Fatigue redundant and irrelevant.<br />
<br />
==Powerlessness and Confusion==<br />
Remembering whatever puts you in powerlessness and not remembering what is actually your life’s mission is loss of memory, Apasmara. Apasmara is the angadevata (lit. body part deity) of Decision Fatigue. Feeling confused is the Oneness of Decision Fatigue. <br />
<br />
When you believe something is your own and something else is not your own, you have decision fatigue. When you remove that, love can be an amazing lubrication, antidote, to liberate you from Decision Fatigue. <br />
<br />

<div>{{#hsimg:1|300| Shiv Darshan | https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5c/Bhagwan_Shankar_Statue_at_Haridwar.jpg}}<br />
<br />
Darshan is traditionally used to describe the moment when we behold a deity, a saint or an [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]]. The experience of darshan is highly revered in Vedic tradition, as just seeing a divine or [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]] is believed to cleanse the karmas of lifetimes, and create deep and lasting transformation in us. <br />
<br />
==Etymology==<br />
<br />
Darshan is something far beyond mere physical ‘seeing’. The word ‘darshan’ is usually translated as ‘divine vision’ or ‘holy sight’, but like many mystical Sanskrit words, darshan cannot be translated. Rather, it has to be experienced.<br />
<br />
==Scriptural references==<br />
<br />
<br />
==How to describe darshan==<br />
In a [[temple]], just before the day’s worship begins when the doors of the inner shrine swing open and we glimpse the radiant bejewelled form of the deity gleaming in the lamplit darkness a certain moment happens that is beyond words, beyond thoughts, beyond the mind. That moment is darshan. Darshan is not an event in space and time. Rather, darshan happens at the moment when we are lifted out of space and time. Darshan is like a window to the infinite expanse of Consciousness, allowing us to glimpse the Formless in a way that we can understand.<br />
<br />
===Darshan is ever-present===<br />
Darshan is the powerful superconscious vibration that is present around an [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]] at all times. Although we usually speak of ‘getting’ the darshan of an evolved soul, an [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]] does not actually ‘give’ darshan – He simply radiates darshan. Just as the sun continuously radiates light, whether anybody is present to receive it or not, the enlightened consciousness is forever radiating its presence. The auspicious moment when we are able to ‘catch’ it becomes the moment of darshan for us!<br />
<br />
===How to receive darshan===<br />
The important thing in darshan is not ‘what to do’, but ‘how to be’. Darshan cannot be given, but it may be drawn from the Source by the receiver, by tuning into the superconscious vibration. <br />
<br />
The breathing space of an [[Enlightened Being|enlightened being]] is like an extension of his physical body. It is a live healing energy-field. When we are completely available and receptive in such an energy-field, we don’t need a technique to catch a glimpse of the same state. Even without much effort from our side, our bio-memory ‘learns’ the expression of [[enlightenment]].<br />
<br />
==Transformation of lifetimes==<br />
Darshan has the power to release both physical and psychic blocks in our system and cut through the layers of unconscious negative patterns built up over lifetimes. Our physiology can actually change in the presence of an enlightened Consciousness. For the receiver who is ready, darshan can be the moment of permanent and irreversible transformation.<br />
<br />
===Darshan is spiritual surgery!===<br />
Darshan is a powerful cleansing process that brings up your unconscious mind to your conscious scrutiny. The intense vibration of darshan causes the hidden layers of the unconscious to erupt, releasing deeply engraved memories and karmic blockages. On the other hand, your most deeply cherished spiritual moments are also vividly relived during darshan.<br />
<br />
During darshan, many people have visions, healing experiences, intense spiritual experiences, and the direct experience of causeless bliss. In many others, deep-seated unconscious fears, guilt, and desires disappear. Some people just go into intense silence. Others are overwhelmed with tears of gratitude. All these are equally wonderful happenings, because they mean that darshan is working on you.<br />
<br />
===A deep imprint on your consciousness===<br />
During darshan, your being comes alive and celebrates with the energy wave of Existence. The mind subsides for a while. The whole scene of the darshan becomes a deep imprint on your consciousness.<br />
<br />
In Swamiji’s presence, I finally feel this life of mine is worth living… I feel loved and happy. Such a great relief that he is walking the planet with me!<br />
- Tricia Royall, salon owner, Arizona,USA<br />
<br />
==Darshan in His words==<br />
“I always say, ‘Darshan is the enlightenment technique for lazy people!’<br />
<br />
The enlightened master Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa says beautifully, ‘If you want to scare away some birds sitting on a tree, you don’t have to do it one by one. Just clap loudly once and all the birds on the tree will fly away.’ In the same way, in the master’s presence, you don’t have to work on your mental patterns, your samskaras, one by one. You don’t have to work so hard! The master’s powerful grace is the one ‘clap’ that can destroy all your samskaras once and for all!<br />
<br />
==Why Darshan==<br />
Understand, you don’t need to be in the presence of an enlightened being to have a glimpse of enlightenment! As I told you, we all continuously have brief spontaneous glimpses of the superconscious state. Such glimpses are always happening in our lives. But the problem is, we are neither aware of it when it happens, nor are we able to hold on to it. All your [[yoga]], [[pranayama]], meditation-all these are only techniques to create the state of readiness in you – the readiness to experience, and the readiness to hold the experience.<br />
<br />
===Darshan – the ultimate technique===<br />
Darshan prepares your body and mind, so that when the experience happens, you will not miss it by being unconscious of it, and you will be able to hold the enormous transformation it creates within. When you are continuously available in the energy-field of an enlightened master, you don’t need so many separate techniques.Even without much effort from your side, your very bio-memory ‘learns’ the expression of enlightenment. Your very muscles learn to imbibe and radiate enlightenment.<br />
Benefits<br />
<br />
===Darshan awakens the brain===<br />
Darshan of an [[avatar]] can result in the spontaneous awakening of the [[Kundalini]], our own highest inner potential energy. Research in neuroscience has proved that darshan floods the body and brain with Kundalini energy, our own highest inner potential energy<br />
<br />
When Kundalini ascends the spine through the sushumna nadi (the main channel of subtle energy), it results in a huge energy influx into the brain. As it flows from the thalamus to the cortex, Kundalini sets up a powerful energy loop within the brain which awakens the latent, non-mechanical parts that we have never used before. With increasing levels of coherence, the whole brain comes alive, turning into a super-conductor of conscious energies that heal, empower and transform our lives. Enhanced awareness levels, greater creativity and extraordinary abilities start to express through us, like [[levitation]], [[teleportation]] and materialization. This influx of superconscious energy also visibly slows down the ageing process and improves immunity to disease.<br />
<br />
===Darshan alters your physiology===<br />
''“ Understand, even your physiology changes in the presence of an enlightened Consciousness! If you are completely open during darshan, the software of enlightened physiology can also be downloaded into you. Your body learns that it can be better than what it is now! Your bio-memory learns the lesson that the possibility for a better existence is there. ”''<br />
- Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam<br />
<br />
''When you have the grace of the Master, both the hardware and software can be totally changed. “ The conscious mind can be cleared by the right teachings, by removing the wrong ideas and taking in clear and correct ideas. The unconscious mind is like the software, which can be cleared by meditation techniques. But ultimately, for the software change to be permanent, the hardware also has to change. Your very brain grooves have to change to hold and radiate the experience of [[living enlightenment]]. ” ''- Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam<br />
<br />
The hardware, the brain itself, will be tuned to hold this new software by the darshan or grace of the master.<br />
<br />
During darshan, I realized that receiving the fully focused attention of a Realized Master is a blessing in itself ! And knowing that through a request I can ask this monumental power to focus on my specific need is amazing to me. I experienced being surrounded by complete protection and support, and I knew that it was purely Swamiji’s grace and I had no part in it.<br />
- Glenn Walbridge, Property Manager, Sedona,USA<br />
<br />
==Darshan & Deeksha==<br />
“ Symbolically speaking, darshan is the moment when you ‘see’ the Divine, and [[deeksha]] is the moment when the Divine ‘sees’ you! Or rather, we can say that when deeksha or initiation happens, the Divine enters into you. Deeksha is the direct transfer of spiritual energy by an enlightened being through a touch, a word or a look. Deeksha is an opportunity to erase the engrams of lifetimes effortlessly. It is a pure gift from Existence, and all you need to do is simply receive it! When you have the grace of the master, both the past and the future will be altered beyond your understanding. “<br />
<br />
===Darshan is like ploughing the soil, deeksha is like planting the seed..===<br />
“ For the perfectly prepared and completely open being, darshan itself can be the moment of deeksha. But in general, darshan is a preparation for deeksha. Darshan is like ploughing the soil, deeksha is like planting the seed. Darshan makes you liquid and receptive. It helps you connect deeply to the vibration of the Master and prepare yourself to receive His energy. The longer you spend in darshan, the more finely tuned you become, so that at the moment of deeksha, you will be completely open and ready to receive. ”<br />
- Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
In Swamiji’s presence, I am filled with an intense inexpressible feeling of joy and love. I believe that is just a taste of my true nature, unobscured by the mind and ego. Swamiji makes it so easy for us to experience our divinity beyond our human conditions!<br />
- Susan Verhoogt, Meditation teacher, Calgary, Canada<br />

<br />
Every human being should experience IA darshan once to know how to live in this world! Darshan healed me of my cervical spondylosis, from which I have been suffering for many years.<br />
<br />
==Darshan is Adding Turiya and Turiyatita in You !==<br />
<br />
''"All Energy Darshan is an attempt to pour Turiya and Turiyatita in your body.''<br />
<br />
''If Turiya and Turiyatita is added into your system, suddenly you feel you are flying! The whole inner space is lubricated. Turiya and Turiyatita is the important fuel with which your body needs to be filled if you are interested in experiencing Kailasa.''<br />
<br />
''Ability of your body to cognise Jeeva - Self, Jagat - Universe, Ishwara - God; ability to connect with Jeeva, Ishwara and Jagat becomes high when you are fuelled with the Turiyatita space and state."- H. H. Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />

<hr />
<div>Climbing the power ladder and still struggling hard to keep the personal interests is “Corruption. <br />
<br />
==Corruption in the Individual Level==<br />
Pure questioning leads you to the deeper and deeper space. <br />
<br />
I tell you, I am never afraid of your questions. I am always afraid of your answers. The tons of answers you carry, where questioning is not allowed, is the frozen part of you. The frozen part of you, is [[pain]] for you. That is corruption for you.<br />
<br />
==Corruption in a Larger Level==<br />
Physical level scam:<br />
<br />
Mental level corruption: means, spreading lies, which some of the media houses does because of their vested interests. It is mental level scam, psychological scam, information scam. <br />
<br />
Conscious level scam: is like spreading lies as religion, some of the strong lies spread as religion, especially when you are talking something about what will happen to an individual after death. <br />
<br />
<br />
==Make Integrity part of you to be Corruption Free==<br />
<br />
===Your Space has a Ripple-Effect!=== <br />
Never think that you are so small that your personal [[integrity]] is not going to have a big impact on the world! All the poverty, corruption, calamities - whatever you see around you today - are the ripple-effect of some individual’s lack of integrity. There is no such thing as ‘group integrity’. The integrity of a group can be only as high as the integrity of the least integrated person in the group.<br />
<br />
Listen: even others’ lack of integrity cannot be the reason for you not being in integrity. In fact, when someone else is being non- integrated, that is the time for you to raise them with your own integrity.<br />
<br />
Only when you bring integrity, your relationship with another starts. Whether it is with God, your Guru, or your family and friends - the relationship starts only when you bring integrity, not before that!<br />
<br />
You can receive all the boons you want to receive from God, only when you maintain the bridge of integrity. You can receive all the blessings you want from your Guru, only when you maintain the bridge of integrity. Otherwise, it is impossible!<br />
<br />
Even if two people are sitting next to each other, God can reveal Himself to one person and not to the other - because He reveals Himself in Space, not in Place! <br />
If the Integrity becomes part of the people, first thing, the country will be relieved from corruption, swindling. Emptying the country will be eliminated! First of all, the conversion will stop. Human-beings will evolve as divine beings. Just see what a huge impact we will be able to create on human-beings if we can help them to find their root-[[pattern]] and complete with it! Root-pattern is the root cause of all suffering. When you start practicing these four principles – Integrity, [[Authenticity]], [[Responsibility]] and [[Enlightenment]] – only then your life starts. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda<br />
<br />
===Corruption Free Knowledge: The Upanishads===<br />
The Upanishads, just by this one word – “apourushya” – means “authorless”, I have introduced Upanishads to all of you. <br />
<br />
Why authorless? Because it is not touched by any vested interests. <br />
<br />
The vested interests are at different levels: Material level – money, all that. <br />
Second, the psychological level – trying to influence people as you want so that you will be the leader. <br />
Then next the collective psychological level – trying to keep certain ideology up and alive for generations and trying to influence the humanity through some ideology and keeping humanity under the control, keeping under the control and bound through certain ideology. <br />
<br />
Upanishads are free from all these levels of corruptions, neither bottom level, nor middle level, or high level. Corruption-free book in the whole universe is Upanishads! No individual is involved. No individual is glorified. No individual’s vested interest exists. <br />
<br />
Authorless – “apourushya”! Aprameya Achinthya Anirvachaniya Apourushya! No author! The names of the people who penned down did not get recorded because it is not their thoughts. There is no influence of them on the thoughts revealed in the book. There is no influence of Upanishadic rishis on the great truths revealed in the book. That is why it is “apourushya”! Apourushya!<br />

<div>Sleep is the base material out of which the dreams can be dreamt. Confusion is the base material out of which this waking state can be perceived. Only when you are in the state of sleep, you can dream. Only when you are in the state of confusion, you can see this waking state. <br />
Understand, that is why confusion is very precious investment for you. It is one of the most precious investment. <br />
Let confusion not become your most precious investment. In every step, every line, every inch of your life, if confusion becomes your basic stand, basic foundation, then imagine the amount of time you are wasting, energy you are destroying. <br />
<br />
There is a beautiful verse in the Taitirriya Upanishad: anando brahmeti vyajānāt (3.6) – Bliss is God, don’t waste it. <br />
You may think, what do they mean by don’t waste it. Don’t waste it by attributing it to your confusion. If you think confusion is bliss, if you maintain the stand that confusion is bliss, you are wasting your life, destroying your life. You are wasting the bliss, destroying bliss. anando brahmeti vyajānāt. <br />

<hr />
<div>Chitta Shuddi means complete inner-space, the space which has achieved Complete [[Completion]] is Shuddha Chittha.<br />
<br />
''Ego is like frozen; Space is like a pure vastness, living vastness. Living emptiness is space. The word emptiness always you think is dead. Living emptiness is space. Living emptiness is space. '' <br />
<br />
''Ability to create the living emptiness as and when you want, not being affected by the ego, is what we call in Sanskrit as Chittha Shuddhi. '' - HH Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam<br />
<br />
==Introduction==<br />
In the traditional Vedanta, Chittha Shuddhi is life. <br />
<br />
Anything can be done for Chittha Shuddhi! Means, complete inner-space, the space which has achieved Complete Completion is Shuddha Chittha. Tremendous [[authenticity]] is required for life. <br />
<br />
Your impossibility makes your life so difficult. By the time you do small things you are tired. It is like without even releasing the hand-brake you are driving the car. <br />
<br />
With the hand-brake on if you drive the car, how will it be? That is exactly what you are doing! With impossibility you are pushing your life! <br />
<br />
When you are pushing your life, just like car being driven with the hand-brakes on, you will live with minimal things, life only in a minimal level, because you always think, Oh, I am new to this. Or, I am not going to be doing this forever. Either, I am new to this, or I am not going to be doing this forever. If you are asked to do [[puja]], Oh, today only I started. Or, you will be thinking, Anyhow in one week they will change. I am not going to be doing this. Constantly approaching life with instability! Instead, Oh, only today I got a chance. Within a week, they may remove me. So let me do it. Authentically let me learn and do it. <br />
<br />
Just in these two lines I will define the science of creating a space: Complete with the constant non-committal attitude with life. Complete with the constant non-trusting attitude with life. Decide to wear life. Life is a pond; get into it.<br />

<div>A responsible childishness is ‘childlikeness’. <br />
<br />
==Introduction==<br />
Ignorance is not celebrated in the Life. Childishness is not celebrated as cute. Life celebrates only ‘childlikeness’ which comes out of complete [[responsibility]]. Not childishness which comes out of ignorance. <br />

<div>[[Agamas]] have four padhas (parts):<br />
*Charya padha, lifestyle.<br />
*Kriya padha, [[rituals]] and processes.<br />
*[[Yoga]] padha, union.<br />
*Jnana padha, (also called Vidya padha) [[Enlightenment]].<br />
<br />
Charya means lifestyle. This padha is hence centered around lifestyle and personal hygiene – how to keep the place clean, how to keep the inner space clean, how to practice daily lifestyle habits like waking up, brushing the teeth, washing and taking bath – everything. As Paramahamsa Nithyananda summarises, “From the time you wake up till you go to bed, purifying your whole muscle-memory is what Sadashiva is teaching through Charya”.<br />
<br />
==Etymology==<br />
Charya is translated as Vedic Lifestyle. <br />
<br />
==Scriptural References==<br />
''Powerful lifestyle is Charya. Powerful cognitions is Vidya, Powers are Kriya. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam ''<br />
<br />
''Doing what is right and making that as a pleasant in your life is Charya... the lifestyle of Sadashiva. - Paramahamsa Nithyananda Paramashivam''<br />
<br />
==Why Charya==<br />
The importance of ritual, immaterial of your moods, will make your mood swings and confusions irrelevant and redundant.<br />
<br />
Without bothering about your mood, physically doing the rituals is the best way. Don’t think you will have a flowery, romantic, oooooh la la loo loo - mood, then you will start your [[puja]] - No! That’s never going to happen. Start your puja… the la la loo loo mood will become permanent. <br />
<br />
Many fellows say, “Oh, when I get a loving, devoted mood, I will start puja” - that is a cheat! That is absolutely cheating. You know you are never going to get that mood. Or you blackmail God, “You give me that mood, then I will do the puja!”<br />
<br />
Blessed are those, who follow the Charya – “Mornings, I am going to be doing puja as long as this body is breathing. If this body stops breathing, in that Jyoti Kailash, that’s all!” Coming to this conclusion is what I call ‘Charyapada’.<br />
<br />
==Charya - An Initial Push==<br />
It is not that Hinduism does not have rules. It very clearly says, rules is only when you are not able to handle yourself. For example, you are not able to wake up in the morning and do yoga. Then a rule comes - you have to do cold water bath in the morning and do yoga. But once you start enjoying yoga, the rule is not there anymore for you, then you are given the context maintain your breath this long, blood pressure this much, and this should be your the way of your bowels functioning, this is all is health, you continue. Then nothing comes; after that no rules. You are given the context and you can manage that with your breathing, with your exercise, when you want, what you want to do. The Vidhi Nishedha, is given only when you are not able to handle yourself. The moment you are able to handle yourself, you are given Jnana (Knowledge) and given [[freedom]]. Charya, lifestyle is only in the initial, then you are given Vidya, Jnana, and given freedom. <br />

<hr />
<div>Chandi [[homa]] is a Vedic-tantric fire ritual invoking the grace of the Cosmic feminine. <br />
<br />
==Scriptural References==<br />
In the Devi Mahatmyam, which literally translated as the glory of the Goddess, Devi is worshipped as Chandi. She is the embodiment of all power, abundance and intelligence. The embodiment of Durga Lakshmi and Saraswati. Hence this Devi mahatmyam is also known as Chandi. This has 700 mantras. <br />
<br />
The Bhuvaneshwari Tantra says " Just like the Vedas have no beginning , so is the Devi Mahatmyam considered." <br />
This chandi homa in which the oblations are offered with all the mantras of the Devi mahatmyam, is hence equivalent to offering a homa with all the mantras of Rig Yajur and Sama Veda.<br />
