Five Techniques for Stress-Free Living

Transcript:

(00:19)

Sadashiva samarambham shankaracharya madhyamam Asmad Acharya paryantam vande guru paramparaam.

(00:47)

I welcome you all with My love and respects. Today the subject is ‘Five techniques for stress free life’. I tell you stressing anything, including technique, will make your life stressed. I can give you thousand techniques for stress free life. But if you start stressing the necessity of those techniques, you have stress. Without stress, you simply moving your right hand or left hand or head or body itself is a technique for stress free life.

(01:53)

Any simple movement in choicelessness is technique for stress-free life. So from morning till night, whatever you do, make it with understanding and choicelessness. That is a important thing. Do it out of free will. Anything you do whether cooking or walking, talking, sitting and watching TV or going to your job, eating, anything, anything you do, add technical information about that into your system. Even breathing, add technical information about that in your system. Thinking, add technical information about that in your system. When I say technical information, how you are breathing, why you are breathing, where it is going to lead, is it going to lead you to where you want, or if your goal is something else how to change your breathing for that. Same way for thinking; what you are thinking, why you are thinking, where is it leading you, is it going to lead you to the same space you want or is it leading somewhere else, then how to change; that’s all. Add technical information to all your actions about walking, talking, breathing, doing anything.

(03:49)

See now you are ready for doing Guru Puja. Add complete technical information about that to your being. "What am I doing? Where is it going to lead me? And what way this is going to help what I want;" completely being in tune with the technical information. When you are not in tune with the technical information, that is where the conflict and the stress starts. The problem is, sometime you want two three different things which are self contradicting. No, even that if you bring right technical information about everything then you will know very clearly which one to choose and you are intelligent enough to know that you need to choose sometime only one. Because only one can have place in your heart, your inner space; only one can be done by your body, only one can be experienced by your mind, only one can be happening in you; so bringing that technical information clarifies the whole being.

(05:17)

So I tell you if the technical information is brought, everything you do is a technique for stress free life. If the technical information is not added, even technique will add more stress in you. I know hundreds of...sorry thousands of people stressed about not being meditating or very stressed to meditate. "Oh! Today I have not done my Kriya, today I have not done my meditation;" highly stressed. What for you want to do meditation, to be stress-free. What a funny mental set up! The action or technique is not directly going to help you to be stress free. The technical information is what going to make you stress-free. Understand, the action or technique is not going to make you stress-free; technical information, that is going to make your life stress-free.

(06:38)

Maybe I can give you some few techniques, kind of anesthesia for instant pain relief. For half an hour you will be stress-free because you are diverted to some other direction. But if you want stress-free life, you need technical information. If you want stress-free one hour, I can give you five techniques. Each technique will put you out of stress for one hour - two hour, but if you want stress-free life then technical information about your whole day is needed.

(07:16)

Iron out your whole day. Now it is too much in chaos. Iron it out. Ironing out your whole life is what I call spiritual routine. For some time you need to spend in a clear routine. Even the parivrajaka sanyasis, aghoris, nagas, even those sanyasis who are wandering all over the world, even they stay in one place between Guru Purnima and Navarathri, that chaturmasya. They observe chaturmasya; they stay in one place and go through a kind of a spiritual routine just to iron out their whole life, means adding technical information to whatever they are doing and making them stress-free.

(08:20)

I can say this is one of the first teaching I want to give for all the ashramites and for the people who are dedicating their whole life for the spiritual Enlightenment. If you have dedicated your whole life for Enlightenment this is the first thing you need to do: ironing out your whole day. Everything you do should be Consciously chosen by you and being celebrated or getting celebrated or celebrating celebration by you.

(09:01)

Morning when you get up, why you brush? Why you clean your body? Why you take bath? Even those simple things from that start; is it directly adding? Is taking bath, is it directly leading me to my goal… Enlightenment? If it is not, can anything be done, it gives me Enlightenment also? Then apply the ash; bhasma snana and when you pour the water, cold water on the body, feel the cold, feel the water all over the body. Let vipassana be added to your bath, means, vipassana means, being in the boundary. You will see when you are in the boundary and take bath, bathing not only purifies your body, it cleanses your mind, because you never stay inside your body when you take bath. You are there somewhere, imagining, visualizing, fantasizing, dueting and what not! When you wake up from the bed you should be completely having control over your body and inside the boundary. Just for five minute feel, "Yes, everything is working properly. Checking, I am there. I am here. Yes, I am available to my body; my body is available to me." Just with this simple clarity, take bath. Not only your body, mind will also be cleansed.

(10:50)

Every step you do, same way, if you have a right technical information you will never feel lazy to do your morning exercise or yoga. It is lack of technical information which is not letting you do the technique. Lack of technical information leads you to the uselessness of technique and how many thousand techniques are supplied to you, it will be just few days, like a initial fantasy and suddenly you will see, when the lack technical information is lacking the technique has no more over power over you, or you are not inspired anymore. It’s like more stress to do the technique.

(11:47)

Same way, any action you do, go on having clarity, clarity, clarity, technical information, till you fall asleep. When you fall asleep, remember, is this sleeping going to help me for Enlightenment. What way I can use this sleeping for Enlightenment? If you just Consciously fall asleep, the whole few hours you are in bed is Samadhi; ‘Nidra Samadhi Sthithi’; Samadhi. So Consciously falling asleep is going to lead you to Enlightenment.

(12:43)

So now understand the essence. I have given you the basic technique to make your whole life stress-free, one. But as these guys requested I can give five techniques also. Morning taking bath Consciously, Consciously take bath, take shower, that’s the first technique and Consciously have your breakfast, and whatever your morning routine, whether it is going to office or going to school or going back to bed, do it Consciously, and again, lunch, eat Consciously, and again dinner, eat Consciously, and night when you fall asleep, fall asleep Consciously. Five simple techniques which you can never avoid because anyhow you are going to do all these five. You may take exemption one or two days for taking bath, but otherwise all these five are going to be your life.

(14:23)

So, simple technique, when I say the word simple technique, I am saying which you don’t need to do something extra. These five are already part of your life. So just have technical information about all these five. All these five will become technique for stress-free life. So have technical information and be stress-free. Live and radiate Enlightenment. Live and radiate the eternal bliss, Nithyananda. Thank you.

2012: Truth, not Just Prophecy

VideoAudio

Transcript:

0.18 21st December 2012, the most searched word in the internet today the subject for countless articles; the end of time in the Mayan calendar reiterated by the I-ching; a yet to find in the predictions of Nostradamus; a dreadful climax in the forecast of science. Yet a few say it is a stunning leap in human consciousness. The world waits with bated breath for a definitive direction. Is it an end or a beginning for humanity??? A rare living incarnation, spiritual beings, guiding light for millions, most watched guru on you tube.com, Paramahamsa Nithyananda unleashes the truth of 2012 as is!!!!!

2.01 I welcome you all with my love and respects. 2012, one of the most talked subject in the whole world in all medias, not just in Hollywood or Bollywood or Gollywood or TV, even in the internet!!! One of the most talked about mysterious subject. I was surprised to see the statistics. More people come to internet for 2012 than pornography. Understand, porno is the largest internet based industry. But more people come to internet now in search of 2012 than porno. I can go on giving you many statistics.

3.36 The importance of 2012; Almost all the ancient civilizations except the vedic civilization, all the ancient civilizations calendars are ending by 2012; Mayan, I Ching, so many prophecies. Even the modern day prophecy methods, prediction methods, Web mart, even those things; Web mart is the system which studies all the softwares, languages and words and collective unconsciousness of the world and predicted 9/11 attack, Katrina, many accurate predictions have been done by the Web mart. Even the Web mart program predicts the end in 2012. So much is spoken continuously about 2012 by so many ancient civilizations and so many religious groups, spiritual groups, religious leaders, spiritual masters, so everybody wants my prediction about the 2012.

5.19 Understand I am not interested in prediction. I will just tell you exactly what is going to happen. You understand the truth as it is. Just few months before I had a very strange, strong, experience, I wanted to share with you all. From that I can tell you exactly what is going to happen. One day morning I was trying to jog, run, do some exercise in treadmill. Usually when I am in the ashram, I try to walk early morning. If I am not able to come out due to some program, if too much of crowd in the ashram, I try to do little running in the treadmill, because I cannot do any yoga. If I do yoga body falls into samadhi. So I can only do something which I can hold on to some structure. So I was doing little running. Usually when I move my body in particular postures, if the body sets in particular postures or if the breathing gets activated and falls in particular rhythm body falls into samadhi. Falls into samadhi means just goes out of my control, kind of I will feel being inside a big balloon. But I was shocked and surprised, my body is constantly falling into samadhi when I was trying to jog, but things are not out of my control. Please understand, I was jogging means the breathing naturally gets altered, and body is falling into samadhi continuously, I counted within 60 seconds, 42 times body was kicked into samadhi; almost like every alternative second. But the funny thing is it is not getting imbalanced; I was completely balanced. I got so much of confidence, I thought O God, body is really settled very well. The physical body is nicely matched, settled with the samadhi state of consciousness. Then I tried little risky things like a yogasana, bending the body and doing some Trikonasana; Trikonasana puts your whole kundalini in one line; the kundalini energy in one line; Trikonasana and few surya namaskar. I was shocked body gets kicked into Samadhi, but I am not imbalanced. First time this kind of experience; because whenever my body falls into Samadhi I will get imbalanced, but body is falling into Samadhi, but I am not getting imbalanced.

9.19 I started contemplating, how come? Why? When I meditated one important truth was revealed inside me. I realized, see the centre of the earth, globe centre, which is the centre of the whole rotation, centrifugal force, see the earth is continuously rotating constantly, because of its centrifugal force only the gravitation is created, and the earth is, the centre of the earth is constantly attracting everything towards it. I realized the centre of the earth is slowly losing its power to pull the things towards its centre, means the gravitation is reducing; the power of gravity is reducing.

10.26 Please understand, by nature your weight is getting reduced maybe .001 milligram. Physically you will not experience it now, physically it may not be big for you, but one important you need to understand, it will have a huge psychological effect because even your thoughts have mass. If the gravitation power in a subtle way, if it starts reducing, your body can move with less thoughts more actions. Please understand, your body can experience a space of less thought more actions.

11.34 For example now, for you to get up from here go to kitchen have dinner and come back, for this action, if you need hundred thoughts, by next year you may need only seventy thoughts; you without doing any spiritual practice. Please understand, because the centre of the earth is reducing its power over things to pull everything towards its centre; the gravity power is getting reduced. I was really shocked. Oh God! What is going to happen? What is its effect on human beings? That is what I started contemplating. It is continuously reducing. The centre of gravity, the centre which has a, which is constantly attracting everything towards itself, is losing its power over everything. I can say maybe consciously itself, the centre is deciding to relax little bit, reduce the gravitation force. So by 2012, at least 6 milligram all objects will physically weigh less; understand physically will weigh less. When I say point, sorry, 6 milligram it’s like a, if something is one ton now, by 2012, 6 milligram will be less; physically measurable weight. But 6 milligram may not be a big thing in the physical plane. It is something extraordinary in the inner space.

14.10 See even the thoughts have mass. When the pull is getting reduced your body can act with less thoughts. It is going to have a huge effect on human beings. I wanted all of you to know this important truth. By 2012, even if you don't do anything you are going to weigh less physically, second, less number of thoughts for same action. Now this is going to have two effects, two different effects on people. If you are habituated to be with less number of thoughts, if you are in tune with that feeling less number of thoughts, you will call that as peace and bliss. If you are not habituated for less number of thought life style, you are going to name that as depression. Understand, people who are not conscious enough, intelligent enough, aware enough, to be comfortable with the less thoughts more action, is going to brand, label that experience unconsciously as depression. If you have prepared your body and mind for less number of thoughts, you are going to experience that as enlightenment. Choice is in your hands.

15.57 Understand, I already described the effect what is going to happen; whether the 2012 is dooms day or enlightenment day, your choice. This is what is going to be effect. How you are going to prepare yourself is going to decide whether it is a dooms day or enlightenment day. Understand, all civilizations which are thinking based, constantly driving you to think, think, think, think, think, and feels thought is productivity, is going to just disappear into depression. You need to understand it very clearly. All the civilizations and societies which goes on emphasizing on thinking, where thinking is celebrated, where thinking is equated to productivity, where thinking is equated to being alive, even for entertainment thinking is important, thinking becomes an entertainment. It is almost like a, in Tamil we have a proverb; taking a fire stick and scratching your head because it is itching. Most of our entertainments are picking up of firewood, burning firewood, and scratching your head because it is itching. Even for entertainment, people think more. So all thinking based civilization is going to hit one of the worst depression, means it is going to be dooms day for them.

18.00 All civilizations which prepares human beings to be comfortable with non thinking zone, the being zone, the unclutched zone, for them it is going to be the greatest celebration and liberation. Suddenly your nervous system is going to be having less load. If you think the load on the nervous system is your productivity, the goal of life, value of life, utility of life, it is going to be depression, dooms day, hell. If you think less load on the nervous system is ecstasy and joy, if you are prepared psychologically and consciously to be with the less load on the nervous system, it is going to be celebration and liberation. 18.57 Understand, we may think why the great civilizations like the Mayans, I Ching from China, there is a book called Book of Change, I Ching, why all of them predict huge destruction? Understand, usually prophecies are created not to tell what is going to happen, to prepare how you need to be prepared for the happening. It is not that they are saying exactly there is going to be huge destruction as shown in the 2012 movie. No....don't think there is going to be huge tsunami and the ships are going to be on the Washington as shown, and the LA’s airport is going to give way as shown in the movie. No.....It is not going to be physical destruction, but it is going to be a huge change. It is in our hands whether to use that as a jumping pad and enter into enlightenment or fall into depression and suffer.

20.21 There is going to be a huge change in the consciousness. That is why no eastern tradition has predicted, no vedic prophecies has predicted end of the world by 2012. No... It is only going to be end of the low consciousness. The possibility for huge; the enlightened civilization is opening up by 2012. When I tell you, people who learn the science of unclutching and prepare themself, will just use this as a jumping pad and become enlightened.

21.01 We are going to have millions of enlightened beings without much effort, without much effort millions of enlightened people. All you need is just sit 20-30 minutes a day and be comfortable with the space of unclutching, that’s all. When the number of thoughts reduces automatically, don't be depressed saying that somebody has stolen your property. You reduced your luggage. Don't have that fear, Oh! Somebody is taking away your property. Don't have that insecurity, less thought means less productive, less being alive, no....Be comfortable with that less thought more action space, that’s all you need. This is the greatest preparation, best preparation for 2012.

22.01 I am not only telling you what is exactly going to happen, I am giving you the choice, all possibilities, so you can choose what you want. All thinking based civilizations and societies are going to face terrible depression because they do not know what to do. When automatically number of thoughts is reducing on their nervous system, they think they are becoming inefficient and depressed. They are going to use all kinds of medicine and alcohol and addictive drugs and everything and going to get into the self destruction; destroying their body and mind. But the civilizations, societies which are comfortable with that non thinking zone, is going to take a quantum leap and get into the space of enlightenment.

23.06 See there are three zones. One, less thought less actions, its called tamas, depression; more thought more actions, that’s called rajas, activeness, restlessness. There is a third space, less thought more actions, satva. All of know this first two space. Less thought less action – lazy, feeling dull, weekend mood, and we know more thought more actions - Monday mood. Unfortunately we do not know a space called less thought more actions - satva. Now by nature you are going to fall into the space of less thought. What are you going to do? How are you going to handle it? Are you going to end up with less thought less action or less thought more action? It's a road - two different roads. Are you going to pick up tamas, inertia, depression, less thought less action or less thought more action? The choice is in your hands.

24.38 One more thing, please understand, one of the rarest happening of nature reducing its force and reducing the number of thoughts in your inner space; rarest happening. After this 2012, again this visible reduction may happen only after 2000 years. So rare possibility to get enlightened! You are on the planet in right time with right person, in right time with right philosophy, right person. It's a huge possibility. Don't miss it. Don't miss it. I know some people who missed last time when it happened; when Krishna was in the body it happened, once, and all these grahas, planets had the same alignment when Krishna was in the body. You study astronomically, you will find it; astrology and astronomy if you study you will find it; the reason for this energy to happen on the planet earth.

26.20 The aligning of certain planets happened when Krishna was in the body once. But people who missed waited for 5000 years and landed again on the planet earth. Many have landed again. Don't miss this time, because it is such a natural lift, it's almost like a, all you need to do is just open the flag in your boat and go with the air, go with the trend. Automatically your number of thoughts will get reduced day by day. Don't associate depression with less number of thoughts. Unfortunately, from the young age you are constantly taught by the thinking based civilizations that less number of thoughts means depression. You feel I am missing something, I need to put something into my system to excite me, whether it is a drug or food or coffin or coffee or, or thoughts to excite. No.... relax. You don't need anything to excite you. Feel comfortable with that less thought space. That will get translate itself into more action space, less thought more action, satva, the peace, restful awareness.

28.07 So much of prediction about this 2012 all over the internet; this is going to happen, that is going to happen, that is going to happen. All thinking based civilizations are predicting dooms day. All being based civilizations are predicting enlightenment. Actually both are true. If you are thought based person unable to catch up with the reality of less thoughts, it is going to be dooms day, heavy depression and there is going to be huge mass suicide and all the countries and societies ruled by the depressed people are going to have war with the others, blaming others responsible for their suffering. There is going to be huge destruction.

29.09 Understand, you have the responsibility to become conscious, enlightened and choose enlightened beings as head of your civilization and society, country. So, we need urgently few million enlightened beings in all major fields of beauracracy, politics, in all major fields to protect planet earth. Understand the urgency. Anyhow, the enlightened beings are not going to be affected, disturbed, but I wanted to warn the human civilization, you need immediately at least few million enlightened beings; people who are very comfortable with the less thought zone, unclutched space; people who don't fall into depression.

30.19 See when there is less thought, when you fall into depression even the small mistakes which others do looks too much, too much and you just go for war. War is nothing but a explosion of friction. You don't need a big reason for it. The friction goes on getting built, built, built; just one reason, he stared at me is enough. You will start slapping and one slap is enough for the other person to repeat, to respond. Nothing else is required. You don't need a big reason to go for a war.

31.10 If you want to save yourself, just learn the science of unclutching. Be comfortable with less thought space. You will not be harmed by 2012. If you want to use this great opportunity of 2012, just get enlightened and if you want to save the planet earth, see that all the people who are decision makers for your life, head of your country, head of your civilization, head of your society, your religious leader, your political leader, people who think for you, people who decide for you, political decision, social decision, religious decisions, inspire all of them to get enlightened. Inspire all of them to be in tune, be comfortable with the less thought space, so that they make right decisions for you.

32.31 Understand, now you have a huge social responsibility. Important part which vedic tradition people were avoiding continuously, especially in the Hindu tradition, people were always thinking if you get enlightened that is enough. Now that is not going to be enough. That is not going to be enough. What are you going to do, sitting in just empty island all by yourself, having few trees which will give fruit for your food? Not only you escaping, save few people so that you can celebrate your life with them.

33.25 Save planet earth. We have put; our ancestors, our elders, our predecessors, have put too much energy to create this huge infra-structure. Let it not be destroyed by foolish unconscious politicians and unconscious religious theories, theologies which goes on creating hatred amongst each other and becoming base for terrorism in the planet earth. Two thing - one, you falling in tune with the less thought space, means learning the science of unclutching and using this 2012, less thought more action zone for enlightenment. Use this as a jumping pad to get enlightened. This is the first thing. Second thing, now itself go all out, work hard, put at least 4-5 hours to save planet earth, by spreading this science of unclutching.

34.51 That is why I am saying all the important science and the technology which is needed to save planet earth and raise its consciousness, I am making it completely freely available in the social media and mass media and internet. I am not asking you to popularize my name as author. No. I am requesting you, take this science and spread it all over the world like a wild fire. This science of enlightenment, feeling comfortable with less thoughts through unclutching. So if you spread this science, especially the decision makers, people who decide for you, your political leaders, your social leaders, your religious leaders; give them all this science. Give them all this great truth of what planet earth is going through. She is really delivering; she is just delivering new consciousness.

36.08 See, during the Krishna’s happening, the same thing happened. People who were not able to evolve them self to the level of less thought more action, Krishna saw, these guys are going to be dangerous. So he just created the war under the controlled conditions and finished all of them off. Understand, if Krishna wouldn't have created that Mahabharata war, there would have been huge uncontrolled chaos. So Krishna managed. The whole chaos was in his controlled condition. It's like a, still now the western countries, during the fire season, they do something like a controlled fire, and finish off, so that the fire does not become wild fire; does not go out of control; out of hand. So particular areas they will burn it and make a fire line. It's called controlled fire. Same way Krishna created an ambience where the chaos is under the controlled condition and created and finished everything.

37.28 Understand, now in 2012 you are entering the same space. I feel from now to 2012, if we create at least two million enlightened beings, people who are comfortable with less thought more action, by 2012 to 2015 we will have at least 20 million enlightened beings on the planet earth. We will have enlightened civilization.

38.03 Please understand, I am not playing with your fear or greed. I am not giving you the dream of Utopia. No....... I am not giving you the dream of paradise. No........ I am not threatening you; I am not frightening you with some fear, prediction. No.....I am just straight away stating the simple fact knowing well, I am going to be available in this body alive, 2012 and 2015 and all, and this video record will be used by people to question me. Knowing this I am making all these statements. Very responsibly I am talking.

38.52 Understand, planet earth is entering into a space where automatically we are all getting into the zone of less thoughts. All you need is prepare your body and mind. If you prepare your mind with unclutching science, you will feel comfortable with that less thoughts and you will not fall into depression, you will become enlightened. If you feel, if you prepare your body also with hatha yoga, not only you will become enlightened, you will start expressing extraordinary powers like levitation. I tell you the levitation is going to be more easy by 2012.

39.45 Let me announce now itself, by 2012 end, I will make 10,000 people levitate in one space and create a huge positive consciousness. That is going to b a big push for the human consciousness to enter into the divine consciousness. That will be the opening of satya yuga, the age of enlightenment.

40.18 See, actually what happens when you levitate you know, it's like a, Masters body is a light, radiating light. All your body and mind, when it just sits unclutched way, it's like a 10,000 mirrors reflecting the Master’s consciousness. Then what happens? 10,000 fold the same light gets zoomed, 10,000 laser beams gets centered. Come on, can you imagine? It is eqvalent to 10000 enlightened beings sitting in samadhi; Shambala in planet earth; Shambala in planet earth. When you levitate, exactly that is what happens. Your body and mind is like a mirror. It just gets focused, properly placed towards Masters Consciousness. So his bio memory is transmitted into you. Your body becomes light and just flows in the ether, flows in the nature.

41.42 So if 10,000 people, 10,000 body and minds focuses itself into the Masters consciousness, you understand, you see, in front of one light if you keep five mirror, the light is going to be five times more, fivefold, because five mirrors, it’s reflecting and the whole area is lit intensely. Same way, in front of one incarnation’s consciousness if 10,000 mirrors are kept; so 10,000 fold that super consciousness is going to reflect and intense energy field will be created; super conscious energy field. So I am planning, by the divine grace, I know, it will be fulfilled successfully with all auspiciousness to have 10,000 enlightened body and mind levitating in enlightened consciousness, radiating enlightenment, to push the whole consciousness of planet earth to the next level, to the cosmic consciousness, to the next level of the divine consciousness between 12/12/12 to January 1st, 2013. In that 21 days we will have an intense inner awakening program where 10,000 people will be just focused on the Masters consciousness reflecting it and radiating, experiencing, beautiful levitation into the cosmic consciousness, so that we push the whole consciousness into the next level. So understand, this will completely heal all the negativity created by political differences and ideological differences.

44.33 This is my humble gift to the planet earth and human consciousness. I invite all of you to be part of this great joyful successful journey of pushing human consciousness into the next level; transforming the human consciousness into divine consciousness by 2012. Let us prepare our self and prepare the planet earth to enter into that space. Between 2012 and 15 only I am seeing the great positive explosion in consciousness. Let us get ready, liberate and celebrate. I wanted this to be the theme for the 2012. LIBERATE AND CELEBRATE. I invite all of you for this great journey of transforming our individual consciousness and the global consciousness entering into the great satya yuga 2012. Let’s experience the enlightenment which 2012 is waiting to share with us, which 2012 is offering to us. So let us march towards 2012. Thank you. 46.30
