I Welcome you all with My love and respects.

First few things. The whole session, this two day session, we will be giving you straightaway the experience of meditation, experience of your inner space. As a by-product of that meditation, experience, you may have physical, mental healing. Above all, the inner healing, spiritual growth but the direct aim of this program is to give you the experience of meditation, thoughtless space or no-mind zone, eternal consciousness, whatever you may call it… This program directly aims at the experience of meditation. The ASP I am aiming at physical healing, the NSP I aim at mental healing. In the Dhyana Spurana, that is the name of this program, I am directly aiming at the experience of meditation.

Just few things. These two days, completely be relaxed. Only one thing is sure. You are going to be here for two days. Don’t have any other thought. Don’t have any other expectation. Don’t have anything else in your mind. The moment you start acquiring something else in your mind, you will create tension. You will be stressed. Do not expect, of course, you are fortunate batch, the first Dhyana Spurana batch. So you don’t know what is in store, what is dhyana spurana. To tell you the secret, not only you, I also don’t know! But that is secret. We can’t tell that. Anyhow, all I know is only one thing. You will have a experience because I know the power of the presence of a Master, of an Enlightened Being.
 +
 +
(02:50)
 +
 +
So, I know what will happen in you but I don’t know how it is going to happen. That will take its own shape. So we don’t have to bother about that. It will take its own shape. Just be relaxed these two days and only one thing is certain. You will be here for next two days. Just go through in a very simple way. Don’t take things too seriously. Of course, when you take things too seriously, you create more and more complications and one more thing, the moment you become serious, the very stress doesn’t allow the energy to work on you. The very stress stops the spiritual experience happening in you. These are the usual few things I give as introduction. Try to be completely in the present moment so that you will not sleep, you will not miss. Next thing, try to take the maximum possible help from the Master’s presence. Try to have the maximum help.

Small story:
 +
Father was telling a young boy to move a big stone. The boy tried his best. He was not able to move. He was just standing completely tired. Father says, “No, you have not used all your potentiality. Use all your potential power.” Son is completely tired. He shouts at the father, “What are you talking? What are you saying? You are saying I have not used all my potential power! You say I have not used all my potentiality! I am tired, don't you see? Are you not seeing?” Father says, “You could have asked me. I am also your power. You forgot. You missed an important thing. You could have asked my help. That is also potential help. That is also potential power. You have an important potentiality. You could have asked me. I would have helped you.”
 +
 +
(05:28)
 +
 +
Please understand, you could have asked Me. You can ask Me. You can take the Master’s help. You have never done that. You have never considered Master is also your potential. You have never taken the Master’s help. You always think you can do it, you can do it. How that boy is standing, same way you are standing thinking you can do it. You don’t think the Master is also your potential power. So much of help available, help is available. You can have so much but you never ask or you never take it. Somehow with the western mind, taking help from somebody means it is something like a... you are degrading yourself but according to Me, it is a potential power. When it is available, try to use it maximum. So let you use the Master’s presence. Let you use the power as much as possible.

We will enter into the subject. The whole program is based on the one truth that you are unclutched. By the very nature, by your very nature, you are independent, illogical, unconnected, unclutched thoughts. Let you be very clear. By your very nature, you are independent, illogical, unclutched thoughts. I will try to explain how your mind is just like the fish tank bubbles. In the fish tank if you see, the water bubbles constantly, water bubbles will be rising. Let Me draw a small diagram and show you.(Swamiji draws a picture on the board)
 +
 +
(08:04)
 +
 +
Whenever I draw any picture, I write the name also so that people will understand. Water tank. Just understand this is a water tank, fish tank. You will see the water bubbles. Because it is constantly flowing, you think it is a continuity but it is not continuous flow. Every bubble is a individual. Every bit is a individual, unconnected but when you see this going in such a high speed, you start thinking it is completely connected or you think it is a continuous process, it is happening continuously. Same way in your mind, continuously thoughts are flowing. Because of its continuity, you think it is a continuous process. Otherwise, every inch is separate, independent, individual thoughts. I want you to understand one thing. You can neither control nor concentrate or develop these thoughts. You can’t do anything about it. Then you may ask, “Then why did You call for this program, Swamiji? Then why this program at all?”
 +
 +
(09:45)
 +
 +
Just to tell you that you can’t do anything I called you all. Let you be very clear, just to make it very clear you are putting too much of effort in the wrong direction. You are putting too much of effort in the wrong direction. You are trying too much in the wrong direction. Just to make you aware you are trying in a wrong direction, I called you all... One thing can be done. The moment you understand you are unclutched, you are unconnected, the influence on your being, the influence of thoughts on your being will drastically reduce, practically disappear. You will not be influenced by your thoughts. You will not be influenced by your thinking. You can completely liberate yourself, all the suffering which you are creating for yourself.
 +
 +
(10:54)
 +
 +
Let you be very clear, all the suffering-capital letter ALL, all sufferings you create for yourself. You don’t have to believe Me but that is truth. Whether you believe or not, that is the truth. All sufferings which you create for yourself, you can liberate yourself from yourself. Whatever way you are torturing yourself you find all technical ways to torture yourself. Really, you find lot of technical ways to torture yourself. Directly if you can’t, the moment your mind masters something, some technology created by yourself to torture yourself, again you develop your technology, you update yourself and come up with something new to torture yourself. Constantly you are torturing yourself. These ideas with which constantly you are torturing yourself, you can liberate yourself.
 +
 +
(11:57)

I want all of you to understand very clearly first at least intellectually that you are unclutched. We will go into a small experience or small exercise to understand what I mean by the word you are unclutched. Please have the notebook. Just for next ten minutes, write whatever comes in your mind without editing. Please be very clear. It is not for showing to anybody. It is just for you. You are just going to see what is happening in you. Do not edit, do not suppress, do not postpone. Don’t think how can I write? Just write whatever comes in your mind in the same language. If you are thinking half in english and half in telugu, write in the same way. If you are thinking half in tamil and half in english, write in the same way. Whatever way you are thinking, in the same way just pen down. Till I say stop, just continue. If nothing comes, just wait. Let us look into our mind actually what is going on.
 +
 +
(13:18)
 +
 +
Let you be very clear, first time you are looking into your mind. Don’t try to finish a sentence. Don’t try to be logical. Don’t look into the neighbour’s book. Just look into your mind and write. Let’s understand the truth experientially. Don’t give gap. If you give gap, you will start editing, suppressing unconsciously. I want you to know completely what is going on inside. Whatever way it is happening, write. Pen down... Do not meditate or do not purposely think. Just let it go on. Write even the conflicts, one thought trying to come up and you trying to suppress or play with it or torture, all those things. Write as it happens. If somebody sees as a witness, an objective report, how you will give, write in the same way. If you are a journalist, it will be easy for you.
 +
 +
(14:50)
 +
 +
Now when I said something, immediately some thoughts would have happened. Start writing at least that. Either for or resisting, some thoughts would have happened... and it never stops with one link. Whatever comes, whether it is logical, illogical, connected or unconnected, just go on penning, go on writing. Only thing, suddenly you may get frightened that what is going on and you may try to be logical and stop thinking unconsciously. That is the only possibility. You may stop suppressing. You may suppress. You may suppress what is going on inside. Do not suppress. Just open the pandora box. Let you be relaxed and let it happen. I am giving you the glimpse of mental state when you are not aware, when you are of course, 99% of the time, you are not aware. That is the truth.
 +
 +
(16:15)
 +
 +
You don’t have to read. Just write. Later on you will read. Don’t try to re-read or edit. Where will you have time for editing? Just write whatever is going on inside. Don’t miss even a single word which is going on inside. Write every word.... If it is getting repeated, whatever is getting repeated, it is okay. Just pen down as it is. If a computer is connected to your inner chattering and if it types...recently there are this dragon softwares which transcribes whatever you speak. If that software is connected, what job it will do, do the same job. Somehow you can hook dragon software to your inner chattering. What job that software will do, just do the same job. Only that will give you the glimpse of truth which I am going to express.
 +
 +
(17:45)
 +
 +
Unless you experience, it won’t become your unconscious memory. It will be only conscious memory. If you think you finished writing, write that thought also. “I think I have finished writing.” Pen down that thought also. Don’t leave that. You can never finish writing. It will be going on. Otherwise, it will at least it will be getting repeated. I am not going to leave you till you are bored and tired of thinking. Actually if you are made to write, you will stop thinking just out of that laziness to write. At least in that way, I will stop your mind. Just few more minutes. Finish writing. Only few more minutes. This is the important session. So don’t miss. Finish writing because based on this only, we are going to work for next two days.

Yes, over! You can relax. Put the notebooks down. Yes, you have any question? You can put the notebooks down. Now you have the specimen of your mind. Not exactly the mind itself but the specimen of the mind. Maybe five minutes specimen. You might have written half an hour but you have only five minutes specimen, because to settle down itself, it will take twenty minutes for you. Suppressing, suppressing, you play a big game of suppressing and making it as logical. Whenever a thought comes, you don’t allow it to flow freely. You suppress and connect it logically or you try to create a logical statement. You do not let things flow as it is. To relax from that, effort or a constant stress which you are going through, that itself will take twenty minutes.
 +
 +
(20:23)
 +
 +
So anyhow, now you have at least 5-10 minutes of specimen of your mind-how it is or what it is. Let you be very clear, whether your fear or greed or guilt, whatever you think as your mind, whatever you think as your problem, it is nothing but connected thoughts. The mind as such is complete unconnected, disorganized, independent thoughts. It is a bunch of thoughts. You try to pick up whatever thoughts you want and create a chain or create a shaft.

The reality which is happening, if you are really serious about transformation, this is the one and only way.   if you just want to play the gameyou see, many time ------Swami, nice day, so we are playing’. There are so many professional seekers come to me, they come and tell me,’  Swami my seeking is much older than your age!’    They come andyesterday also somebody also came and told me ‘ Im one century ahead of you’.   That is OK, nothing wrong, being one century ahead of me is nothing, half a century not one century, nothing wrong.   Another one person told me ;  ‘My seeking is one century, half a century ahead of you’. Right!   What have you got? What have you achieved?

The reality which is happening. If you are really serious about transformation, this is the one and only way. If you just want to play the game, you see, many time, “No, Swamiji. It’s nice game. So we are playing.There are so many professional seekers come to Me. They come and tell Me, “Swamiji, my seeking is much older than your age.” They come and yesterday also somebody came and told Me, “I am one century ahead of You.” That’s okay, nothing wrong. Being one century ahead of Me...half a century, not one, half a century. Nothing wrong. Another one person told Me, “My seeking is half a century ahead of You.Right! But what have you got? What have you achieved? If you are a professional seeker, just want to do window shopping and just saw the flyer somewhere, “O, nice Swami. Let us go and see what He says.” If you have come to check out, then okay. You don’t need any meditation or anything or any of these great teachings. You can just sit and listen. If you are really sincere, serious about the business: business of transformation, if you are really serious, then this is the only way. Let you understand.

Now we will work step by step to take this understanding into your deeper layer and show you exactly how what I am saying is truth, how this is truth in your inner space. Now I presented this truth in front of you. We will work in every step in the level of guilt, in the level of fear, in the level of desire. We will just see how there are so many thousands of thoughts and you create, pick up some thoughts and connect with each other and create your desire and run behind that and make your life hell thinking that it will give you joy and finally it gives only pain and even then you are not ready to give up your belief and again just because you started believing, you are afraid to give up. If you give up then you have nothing else to do. The fear of not doing anything else or fear of being alone, that drives you crazy.
  
If you are a professional seeker, just want to do window shopping;  and you saw the flyer somewhere,’Oh I ;  Nice Swami, let’s go and see ! ‘  (1:14) What he says, if you have come to check out then OK, you don’t need any meditation or any of these great teachings; can just sit and listen.  If you are really sincere, serious about the business, business of transformation.  If you are really serious then this is the only way, let you understand.    Now we will work step by step to take this understanding into your deeper layer, and show you exactly how, what I am saying is truth!    How this is truth in your inner space.  Now, I presented this truth in front of you, we will work in every step;  The level of guilt, The level of fear,The level of desire;  We’ll just see how there are so many thousands of thoughts, and you create, pick up some thoughts and connect with each other, and create your desire, and the one behind that , and make your life hell !  Thinking that it’ll give you joy and finally it gives only pain.  And even then you are not ready to give up your belief.

How you create step by step by step your hell beautifully or in ugly way: not beautifully, ugly way. We will see how you are creating your hell. The moment you understand how you create your hell, naturally you will stop creating. That is enough. You don’t need to start creating your heaven because heaven is. Heaven is existing. All you need to do is just stop creating hell for yourself and for others. You are not only creating for you, you create for others also because you feel lonely in your hell. You call your neighbours also, “Please come, come. Please come. Why don’t you share little bit? Why not let us share? Let us share our space.” You are not feeling comfortable when you are alone. That is why I say all your relationship is nothing but creating more and more intimate enemies. You create more and more intimate enemies.

(03:46)
  
And again, just because you started believing, you are afraid to give up.   If you give up, then you have nothing else to do;  the fear of not doing anything else;  a fear of being alone, that drives you crazy!    How you create, step by step by step, your hell beautifully or in ugly way;  not beautifully ; ugly way.   We will see how you are creating your hell!    The moment you can understand how you create your hell, naturally you will stop creating, that’s enough!  You don’t need to start creating your heaven, because heaven ‘is’ heaven is ‘existing’!   All you need to do is stop creating hell  for yourself and for others. You are not only creating for you, you create for others also, it’s because you feel lonely in your hell!  You call your neighbours also,’Please come, come, please come, why dont you share a little bit, why not, let’s share, let’s share our space;  you are not feeling comfortable when you are alone!    That is why I say, all your relationship  is nothing but creating more and more intimate enemies, you create more  and more intimate enemies.  
+
Let you be very clear; by your very nature, you are unclutched, unconnected, illogical, independent and completely unclutched thoughts. We will take this truth layer by layer and experience it. If you experience this moment, if you understand this moment, nothing else is necessary. Actually this is enough. We are done. If you understand this moment and if you are feeling, ‘Yes, nothing more to do,’ then this is done! This is enough, nothing else is necessary but sometime we need to throw the light at every corner, to every corner. There are so many dark corners in your being. We will throw light to every corner so that your being can become completely Enlightened, completely Enlightened.

Now first few things to be understood in the physical level, in the annamaya kosha. Just very simple basic two understanding. Then you will understand how you are stopping the growth or the rejuvenation, self-healing process by thinking and connecting and creating shafts. Every moment, constantly your thoughts are creating your body. That is the first thing. Next thing, your body is guided by your beliefs and emotions. First thing, your body is created by your body, by your mind and thoughts. Next thing, it is guided by your emotions and beliefs which you are carrying. There is a beautiful book written by Bruce Lipton, ‘Biology of Belief’. It is a beautiful book. After a long research he says, your body is not guided by cells and as you... as we are all made to believe in Biology, your body is not guided by cells. You are not just a bio-mechanism. He says, you are guided by your belief and your emotions and he goes further deep to explain step by step everything.

(06:47)
  
Let you be  very clear, by your very nature you are unclutched, unconnected, illogical, independent and completely unclutched thoughts !  (4:05)  We will take this truth layer by layer and experience it.   If you experience this moment, if you understand this moment, nothing else is necessary.    Actually, it’s enough, we are done.  If you understand this moment and if you are feeling ‘yes nothing more to do’, then this is done!  This is enough, nothing else is necessary.    But, sometimes we need to throw the light at every corner, to every corner, there are so many dark corners in your being, we’ll throw light to every corner, so that your being can become completely enlightened, completely enlightened.   Now first few things to be understood in the physical level, in the annamaya kosha.   Just very simple, basic to understanding, then you will understand how you are stopping the growth of the rejuvenation, self healing process, by thinking and connecting and creating shafts.   Every moment, constantly your thoughts are creating your body, that’s the first thing.   Next, thing, your body is guided by your beliefs and emotions.

Anyhow, five thousand years ago, Patanjali is very clear. He says very clearly, “Just by Ichamathra, just by your desire, you create your Sarira.” Just by your desire, you create your body and you can destroy or you can do whatever you want with your body. Now understand with this truth of you being unclutched... If we understand that your body is being created every moment by your thoughts, by your emotions, why are we continuously carrying diseases? Why are we again and again bring our diseases back? And one more thing, according to, even according to Biology, you are creating your body, you are rejuvenating your body continuously. Your liver is replaced once in six months. Your complete intestine, intestine system is replaced once in twenty one days. Constantly you are replacing yourself. You are rejuvenating yourself. Then why are we bringing, why are we holding on to our diseases?

(08:16)
First thing, your body is created by your body, by your mind and thoughts.    Next thing, it is guided by your emotions and beliefs which you are carrying, (5:57)   There is a beautiful book written by Bruce Lypton, ‘Biology of Belief,’  It’s a beautiful book, after long research, he says, ‘Your body is not guided by self  and as we  are all made to believe in biology;  your body is not guided by cells;  you are not just a bio-mechanism’.    He says  ‘you are guided by your belief and your emotions’,    He  goes further deep to explain, step by step everything.    Anyhow, five thousand years ago Patanjali is very clear, he says very clearly just by iccha matra, just by your desire, you create your sharira.    Just by your desire you create your body, and you can destroy or you can do whatever you want with your body. (7:10)    Now understand, with this truth of you being unclutched.    If you understand that your body is being created every moment by your thoughts, by your  emotions.    Why are we continuously carrying diseases? 
 
  
 +
Because of your old mental set up, when you believe in something, when you create an identity, when you start believing the identity which you are carrying about yourself, that continuity of identity creates a same kind of body. So the problem which is in your identity happens in your body. If you don’t drop that identity, the body also continuously suffers. Even the new body which you create will be the same old problem. Constantly you are creating body with diseases. If you can understand and relax with this truth, if you can understand and relax with this one truth- ‘You are unclutched,’ you will rejuvenate your body and you will create a new body.
  
 +
(09:19)
  
 +
That’s what Shiva says, ‘Be born anew.’ By understanding this truth, be born anew. Whether you have pain or any suffering, just completely unclutch yourself and see. The pain which you experienced ten days ago, the pain which you experienced nine days ago, the pain which you experienced yesterday, do not connect them and give a label. Just be very clear, something is happening in that area. Something is happening in my body. Do not label. Do not start believing, ‘I have continuous pain.’ The moment you start believing you have continuous pain, you have created problem.
  
  Why are we again and again bringing our diseases back?    And one more thing, according to, even according to biology;  you are creating your body, you are rejuvenate  your body, continuously. ( 7:53)   Your liver is replaced once in six months;  Your complete intestines are replaced once in twenty one days.    Constantly you are replacing yourself    You are rejuvenating yourself.    Then why are we bringing, why are we holding on to our diseases?    Because of your old mental set-up.  When you believe in something,, when you create an identity, when you start believing in something, when you create an identity, when you start believing the identity which you are carrying about yourself.    The continuity of identity create the same kind of body.    So the problem which is in your identity happens in your body.    If you don’t drop that identity  the body also continuously    suffers.    Even the new body which you create, will be the same old problem.    Constantly you are creating body with diseases.
+
(10:07)
  
 +
Even if you get rid of that pain, you will be waiting for that pain. ‘O, that pain has gone but I don’t know when it will come back.’ Inside your mind, you don’t believe that it has gone once for all. You will wait to bring that pain back. You are waiting to get hurt. You are waiting to get the disease. You are just silently, patiently meditating for the disease to come inside. That is what you are doing. Waiting for the disease, particular disease to come in means you are meditating. You are just waiting for it to come inside. You are just asking, “Oh, when it will come I don’t know. When it will come I don’t know.” It is almost like meditating for God. You are meditating for pains. You are meditating for diseases. When you create even one shaft, one idea, you have this problem, you have that problem, constantly you will be bringing it back. Even when you don’t have, you will not be able to believe that you are not having. You will not be able to believe you are not having.
  
(8:57)

(11:24)
  
If you can understand and relax with this truth, if you can understand and relax with this one truth, you are unclutched.    You will rejuvenate the body and you will create a new body.    That ‘s what Shiva says,  ‘Be Born Anew.’  By understanding this truth, be born anew.    Whether you have pain or any suffering, just completely unclutch yourself and see;  the pain which you experienced ten days ago, the pain which you experienced nine days ago, the pain which you experienced yesterday;  do not connect them and give a label.   Just be very clear, something is happening in that area, something is happening in my body.    Do not label, do not start believing ‘I have continuous pain  (10:00)  The oment to start believing you have continuous pain you have created problem.   Even if you get rid of that pain, you’ll be waiting for the pain;  ‘Oh that pain has gone but I don’t know whether it will come back.    Inside your mind you don’t believe that it has gone once for all, you will wait to bring that pain back;  you are waiting to get hurt, you are waiting to get the disease, you are just silently, patiently, meditating for the disease to come inside.   (10:35)  That is what you are doing, waiting for that particular disease means, you are meditating!    You are just waiting for it to come inside, you are just asking, ‘Oh when it’ll come I don’t know, when it will come I don’t know.   It’s almost like meditating for God !  You are meditating for pain, you are meditating for diseases.    When you create even one shaft, one idea you have this problem, you have that problem,    constantly you will be bringing it back.    Even  when you don’t have, you will not be able to believe that you are not having, you will not be able to believe you are not having.

You can see in your life, in the young age if your mother teaches you, if you are taught by your mother, “If you go in the rain, you will have wheezing,” after you grow, even after you become old, you don’t even have to go in the rain. Just see the rain through the window, you will sneeze. Moment you see the rain through the window, you will start sneezing and sometimes by mistake you may not observe and you may not sneeze. You may not sneeze but even then, “O, it’s raining but somehow I am not feeling any problem. I am not feeling cold. Why? What happened? Now-a-days I have become alright or what?” Constantly you suspect and meditate for two days till it comes to you.  
  
 +
(12:18)
  
(11:23)
+
Till it comes, we will be constantly meditating because the moment you start believing something, the moment you start connecting that shaft and start believing, even if it doesn’t happen, you are not comfortable. You wanted that shaft to be executed. Only then you feel that identity is safe. You are ready to do, you are ready to sacrifice anything to protect your identity. Be very clear, including your body, you are ready to do anything to protect your identity. You can see in your life. To protect….that is the last thing which you want to lose. You don’t want to lose the identity. To protect the identity you will do anything. Actually people can sacrifice anything. It is easy to sacrifice wealth. It is easy to sacrifice money. It is easy to sacrifice wife because it is constantly hurting! It is easy to sacrifice all these things but it is not easy to sacrifice the identity. It is very easy to sacrifice things which is hurting.
 
 
Can see in your life , in the young age, if your mother teaches you, if you are taught by your mother;  if you go in the rain you will have wheezing.  After you grow, even after you become old, you don’t even have to go in the rain, just see the rain through the window, you will sneeze!    The moment you see the rain through the window, you will start sneezing;  and sometime by mistake you may not observe and you may not sneeze, you may not sneeze but even then,’Oh it’s raining, but somehow I’m not feeling any problem,  I’m not feeling cold, why what happened?    Now it has become alright or what?’  Constantly you suspect and meditate for two days, till it comes to you.    Till it comes you’ll be constantly meditatingbecause the moment you start believing something, the moment you start connecting the shaft. and start believing, even if it doesn’t happen you are not comfortable.   You wanted the shaft to be executed; only then you will feel the identity is safe.   You are ready to do, you are ready to sacrifice (12:43)  anything to protect your identity.   Be very clear, including your body you are ready to do anything to protect your identity.   You can see in your life, to protect, that is the last thing which you want to lose.

I have seen many people. They will give all their wealth, everything and run away to Himalayas. They will be sitting in Himalayas but they would have given up so many things but they will not give up the seat in which they are sitting. In the Himalayas, in the temples I have seen, they will fight for the place where they sit. They would have given up so many things but they won’t be able to give up that chair or the seat where they are sitting or that kamandalu. Everyday they will be wiping and washing that kamandalu. Ten times they will be cleaning and it will be shining but they will be cleaning. They would have given up so many things but they can’t give up that kamandalu and even if they somehow if they manage to give up this kamandalu also, they can’t give up that identity. ‘I am this, I am that.’ It is very difficult to give up the identity. You will sacrifice anything for identity. All your diseases are nothing but sacrificing your body for the sake of your identity.

You don’t want to lose the  identity.    To protect the identity you will do anything.    Actually, people can sacrifice anything, it is easy to sacrifice wealth, it is easy to sacrifice money, it is easy to sacrifice wife, because it will be constantly hurting;  it is easy to sacrifice all these things. (13: 21)  But it is not easy to sacrifice the identity.  It is very easy to sacrifice things which is hurting.   I have seen many people, they will give all their wealth, everything, and run away to Himalayas.    They’ll be sitting in Himalayas, but they will have given up so many things!  But they will not give up the seat in which they are sitting.    In the  Himalayas, in the temples I have seen, they will fight for the place where they sit.   They would have given up so many things, but they won’t be able to give up that chair or the seat where they are sitting.    Or that kamandalu, every day they will be wiping and washing the kamandalu, ten times they will be cleaning and it will be shining, but they will be cleaning.   They will have given up so many things, but they can’t give up that kamandalu (14:10)  And even if they have managed to give up this kamandalu, also they can’t give  up the identity;  I am this, I am that.  It is very difficult to give up the identity.   You will sacrifice anything for identity.   All your diseases are nothing but sacrificing your body for the sake of your identity.   When you start believing, you have an identity;  when you start believing you are somebody;  according to that belief you alter your body.  According to that belief you force yourself to act, your body creates or maintains particular disease according to the identity which you create.  ( 15:04)
+
When you start believing you have an identity, when you start believing you are somebody, according to that belief, you alter your body. According to that belief, you force yourself to act. Your body creates or maintains particular disease according to the identity which you create, according to the beliefs which you create about your body. Tiredness, chronic fatigue- all these things are directly related to this shaft. If you start believing, you see, yesterday’s tiredness and day before yesterday’s tiredness or tiredness which you experienced one month ago, they are complete independent experiences but when you start connecting all of them and saying, “By 8 o’clock, I will become tired.” If you create a shaft, by 6 o’clock itself, you will start preparing your mind, “Eh, it is becoming 8 o’clock. I have to fulfill my belief. I have to fulfill my faith. I have to fulfill my identity.You have to fulfill your identity. You start creating the dullness or lethargic feeling by 6 o’clock itself. You have to prove your identity because you created it!

(16:06)
  
(15:04)
+
Sometimes you may forget to prove your identity to the outer world but you will never miss to prove the identity to yourself because if the outer world doesn't believe your identity is also is okay but you yourself start suspecting your identity is too dangerous. You will never let that happen. Be very clear, I am exposing all the cunning games you are playing with yourself, all the games which you are playing with yourself. You will never let down your identity with yourself because without that identity, you will be afraid. What to do? How to be? You need to be. You can’t be without anything. So you have to be somebody. So create some identity. All your identity is a pure myth. You see, I can generalize and tell you these are the usual problems which you suffer in the annamaya kosha, in the first layer because of your identity and because of the belief or because you connect and see the shaft.
  
According to  the beliefs which you create about your body;  tiredness,chronic fatigue;  all these things are directly related to this shaft.    If you start believing;  you see;  yesterday’s tiredness and day before yesterday’s tiredness, or which you experienced one month ago.    Theyr’e complete independent experiences.    But, when you start connecting all of them and seeing,’ by eight ‘o’ clock I’ll become tired;  If you create a shaft , by six ‘o’clock you will start preparing your mind;  ‘Hey it’s becoming eight ‘o’ clock,  I have to fulfill my belief, I have to fulfill my faith,  I have to fulfill my identity.    You have to fulfill your identity;  you start creating the dullness or lethargic feeling by six ‘o’ clock itself.  You have to prove  your identity, because you created it.    Sometimes you may have forgot to prove your identity to the outer world, but you will never miss to prove the identity to yourself.    Because if the outer world doesn’t believe your identity, is also OK.    But you yourself starts suspecting or your identity is too dangerous, you will never let that happen.

(00:15)

Q: This morning You spoke a little bit about Patanjali and said to use pain to go to the next level. I am asking for Your help. How can one use pain to go to the next level?
 +
 +
(00:28)
 +
 +
Swamiji: It’s a nice question. Morning itself I answered. Just see without labeling that as a pain just look into that space, what is happening. I have spoken about this in the same Pain to Bliss meditation. When the pain disappears even after that just try to continuously penetrate that same zone. Let you be aware of that zone. Then suddenly you will see, you are experiencing the boundaryless energy. You see, you have your identity. You have an identity about yourself. If that identity is smaller than the physical body, you start feeling that pain. If the identity is equivalent to that physical body, you will have a comfortable relaxed feeling. If that identity explodes and expands bigger than the physical body you will feel ecstasy. When you close your eyes and remember your name you will have an image about yourself. You will have your form. That’s what I call your identity. If that identity is smaller than the physical body, you will have pains and feelings of suffocation. You will feel suffocated. In those areas you will feel suffocated. If the identity is equivalent size of your physical body, you will be comfortable with the body. If the identity expands than your physical body you will have bliss.
 +
Now, put your awareness wherever you have pain and remember you are unclutched. Suddenly you will see that identity expands. Expansion of identity is what I mean boundary less experience. You will enter into the different space of being unclutched. When you go into it you understand the truth of what I am saying. One more problem, unless you go into all these things, whatever I am saying is only words. They will be words and words. When you go into it you will understand the truth behind all these words.
 +
 +
(02:43)
 +
 +
Q: I want to be unclutched but my wife wants to be clutched. How can You help me? 😊
 +
 +
(02:59)
 +
 +
Swamiji: 😊 Now you have to choose between Swami and wife…. What to do?  See one thing, here you have given a small bracket: “Want to enjoy good things in life”. You think being unclutched means not enjoying good things in the life? No. That is where you are missing. Do not try to create a shaft or understanding that unclutching means something. Again you are creating one more shaft. Again you are creating one more Shaft. The spiritual teaching means somehow the idea has entered into you; it is anti-life. Without even practicing you are clear it is anti-life. It is not. When you start living in that unclutched way, you will understand every moment your life is only enriched. You are not giving up anything. I tell you, “Be unclutched.” You will see you are fulfilling not only your wife’s imaginations, you are just overflowing much more than that. One more thing, only when you are unclutched you will have so much of space you will be able to accommodate all her fantasies. You will be able to accommodate her being. You will have tremendous compassion for her. You will not feel suffocated by her. The only way to escape from wife is, be unclutched. The one and only way to escape from the wife.
 +
 +
(04:36)
 +
 +
Because when you are unclutched you will have so much space in you. You will not feel suffocated by people. You will not feel suffocated by the expectations of somebody. You will have such a big space, not only you will be able to fulfill, you will have tremendous compassion. You know where they are suffering. See when you know, somebody is suffering at some point. You will not have violence. Only when you don’t understand where he is suffering… he or she is suffering you will have violence. Intelligence and compassion is one and the same. When you have intelligence where that person is suffering you won’t have violence. You will be able to accommodate that person in your inner space. You will have a different quality of your life I tell you. Only when you relax. Only when you unclutch yourself you will understand, when you are unclutched you will not get irritated. You will not be moved. That person may get irritated. You will not get irritated. Your very energy will be totally different.
 +
 +
(05:45)
 +
 +
Q: If the shaft is created by our mind or identity. What is the purpose of mind or identity?
 +
 +
(05:51)
 +
 +
Swamiji: Only you have to know the purpose. How will I know? Only you will know the purpose of the mind or identity. What… What you think you want to achieve in the world, that is the purpose. If you want to become a doctor? Doctor. You want to become a lawyer? Lawyer. You want to do some… that is the purpose of your identity. But the problem is it is you who is creating.
 +
 +
(06:23)
 +
 +
Q: Swamiji my pranams to you. I am confused when You say not to create shaft of joy. And when You say… Bless us to lead a life of nithya ananda or bliss eternally.
 +
 +
(06:36)
 +
 +
Swamiji: Be very clear, when you don’t create a shaft of joy only you will have ananda. Joy is a part time ananda. If you create shaft out of ananda, you will create joy. If you relax from the shaft of ananda you will be in Bliss. Please understand. Joy and Ananda are not one and the same. They are opposite to each other. If you try to create shaft out of ananda, you will try to possess that and make it as joy. If you relax from shaft of joy and don’t bother about it. Don’t want to prolong. Suddenly you will be in the space of Bliss. You will be in the space of Bliss. Understand between.. difference between Ananda and joy.
 +
 +
(07:25)
 +
 +
Q: Another doubt, how do I not confuse the state of doing nothing with the sense of lack of responsibility or defeat… defeatist…. defeatist attitude?
 +
 +
(07:43)
 +
 +
Swamiji: See, the idea, the defeatist attitude, lack of responsibility and all now only your mind is picking up just to defend yourself. Even if it is lack of responsibility and defeatist let you be unclutched for few days. You will understand. If you have unclutched you will not have that tamas in you. You will not have tamas in you. Mentally you will be silent but physically you will be active and alive. When you are in the space of lack of responsibility or defeatist, mentally you will be very active, you will not be silent. Physically you will be tired. When you are unclutched, physically you will be active and alive, mentally you will be silent. There is a big difference between tamas and sattva. In both space you are silent but totally different. When you enter into the… when you relax and try to be unclutched you will understand. You see, whenever you remember this unclutched… you are unclutched. That itself will give you such a inner healing, such big relief that you don’t have to do anything. Actually there is nothing to be done and there is nothing can be done. You can try, try, try, try. Nothing can be done. When you accept, when you come to that understanding, suddenly you feel the inner healing happening in you. You are becoming a different being. Different person. Only then you will understand how to be alive, active, without entering into the defeatist attitude. With the understanding you will never be defeatist. These are all few words which your mind creates to protect yourself from this truth. Even if it is defeatist it's okay. Let you be unclutched. Then you will understand the truth of these words.
 +
 +
(09:45)
 +
 +
Q: In one of Your talks You mentioned TPS. That’s lowering the Thoughts Per Second. One of the ways to break the shaft. So, meditation is the main way to achieve Dhyana. Who is the person? Who put this question? Ha.
 +
 +
(10:00)
 +
 +
Swamiji: Be very clear, now you are not connecting Me with Buddha or Krishna. You are connecting Me with your identity which you have about Me in the past. You heard the teachings, have you become enlightened? No. Now you are connecting that with this so that you can dump the both in the same dustbin. Do not create. Now come to this moment. Either get help from these words or at least understand you are not being helped. Let us be very clear. Either you are helped or not helped. Let us not connect with this… let us not connect this with teachings. This words with some of My past teachings and put the both in same file and put it in one corner of your mind. So, that you can archive Me.
 +
 +
(11:01)
 +
 +
Outsourcing joke. An American outsourced his job to an Indian IT by paying 30% of his salary and instructed his outsourced employee to do new, new mistakes so he can preserve his job. Who is this person?  Yes. Anyhow… huh? New, new mistakes… so that he can preserve his job.
 +
 +
(11:33)
 +
 +
Q: When a person feels that they are not their body and can thank their body for letting them use it. What is this? When you thank your body for transporting you?
 +
 +
(11:44)
 +
 +
Swamiji: Really you will feel grateful to the body. And you will feel completely comfortable with your body. Who wrote this question? This question? First intelligent question. In this whole series first intelligent question. I think you really understood. You have done the first session. When you… if you really do the first session you will come to this experience. You will feel completely comfortable and grateful to the body. If you have not felt the gratitude towards the body you’ve not done the first session. Be very clear. Still you carry the irritation in you. When you feel so blissful in the body, inside the body, you feel so happy, so homely with this whole system. You won’t feel lonely at all in your life. Constantly you will be feeling homely. You won't feel lonely. Lonely… feeling of loneliness or the feeling of need for other person will have… you will have the feeling for the need… you will feel the need for the other person only when you are not comfortable with your body. If you are completely comfortable with your body. You will never feel the need for the other person. Even if you have to share yourself with the other person you will be overflowing. You will not be demanding. You will not be begging. You will be just over flowing. If you are feeling the need for the other person be very clear you are not comfortable with your body, you are not ease with your body.
 +
 +
(13:26)
 +
 +
Q: If we could attain enlightenment through… I’m not able to… understand… read. Through Krishna or Jesus etc why do we need a living Master? Thank you. Who is the person who put the question?
 +
 +
(13:45)
 +
 +
Swamiji: If you can achieve enlightenment through Krishna or Jesus you don’t need living Master? The big problem, even with a living Master you are not able to achieve… What are you going to do with the Masters who don’t have the body? People come and ask Me, “Swamiji can You teach me how to connect with ascending Masters?” or “How to talk to the great Master and get their teachings?” I tell them, “Directly I am speaking in the language which you understand. That itself is not helping you. How are you going to be helped with somebody who is not going to speak in the same language which you are able to understand”? So, be very clear, if you can achieve enlightenment with Krishna or Mahavir or Jesus you don’t need enlightened, living Master. But, usually this never happens.
 +
 +
(14:36)
 +
 +
Q: How would you approach Christian person to accept meditation?
 +
Swamiji: I don’t approach. Anybody accepts meditation; it is up to them.
 +
 +
(14:47)
 +
 +
Q: It is telling my family about my practicing meditation. How do I tell them without hurting their feelings?
 +
 +
(14:53)
 +
 +
Swamiji: Only you have to decide. I don’t know. I have not yet created any mechanism for it. Maybe… you can slowly slowly show the transformation which you are having in your life. Maybe by seeing the transformation which you are having, which you are expressing in your life they will be inspired. The only way is to show in your life to inspire them. That is the only way.
 +
 +
(15:24)
 +
 +
Q: If meditation is not the channel to spiritual enlightenment then why should we meditate? What exactly are we supposed to do?
 +
 +
(15:30)
 +
 +
Swamiji: Meditation is channel for enlightenment. I don’t say meditation is not the channel. But when I say the word meditation, being unclutched, not getting caught with one more shaft. If the meditation creates one more shaft be very clear, you will not be getting enlightenment.
 +
 +
(15:52)
 +
 +
Q: If you are not the bodies, how do we feel the pain of the body and fear of losing the body? And if karma theory is not right how do we transmigrate?
 +
 +
(16:02)
 +
 +
Swamiji: Two things, I don’t say you are not the body. You are not the body should become experience in you. Not the theory given to you. Second thing, whether karma theory is not right… if the karma theory is not right… again, I don’t say karma theory is not right. It is not complete. It can’t answer all the logical questions. It can’t stand the sharp logic. It can stand to do business but not to understand for yourself. People come and ask Me... actually, a small incident really happened. One boy was brought to Me by the mother. And the mother is telling Me, “Swamiji, please tell him. He is not listening to my words. Please tell him to obey me.” I said, “How can I tell? I Myself never obeyed My mother. I ran away from the house. My mother tried her best but I ran away from the house. I Myself never obeyed.” How can I say, “Obey your mother”? But you know, women are women. She was very adamant. “No, no You have to insist. You have to tell. Please tell him. He has to listen. He has to obey me.” Then I called him, “See, why don’t you obey your mother? See I Am obeying, I Myself… I am obeying her. Why don’t you also obey her? And listen to whatever she says”? This guy asked Me, straight away, “Swamiji, she herself is not happy. If I follow her I will also become like her only. Why are You asking me to obey her? Why are You asking me to follow her?” I was shocked. Somehow I convinced him but I am not convinced.
 +
 +
(17:46)
 +
 +
Same way, I can use karma theory to convince somebody. But I am not convinced. Karma theory is a beautiful way to give healing. See at some point human beings need some consolation, some healing, some effect. For that beautiful. For society karma theory is really beautiful. It can give a healing effect. It can give a big comfort feeling. But not for the seekers. Not for the Seekers. The beautiful word in Kathopanishad, it’s like walking on the razor’s edge. Shourasyadhara Vishidaaniketa. It is not for the people who are… seekers of truth. At Least not for the people who have come up to the level of Dhyana Spurana. For a society it is a good idea. You can see, there is an interview in the India Post. I accepted the Karma theory and spoke about that. In India Post. For public it is good. It gives you inner healing effect and you don’t have to suffer too much, torture yourself too much. And lot of psychiatric problems will be avoided. You will be more balanced and less depressed.
 +
 +
(19:04)
 +
 +
For all those things karma theory is okay. But ultimately when you start seeing the truth that doesn’t hold good. With the sharpest logic when you penetrate. That doesn’t hold good. That’s what I mean Swamiji.. When I say karma theory. So, the only way to transmigrate is just unclutch. Unclutch, and all the concept of pain, pleasure… I am saying flood everything with truth. Let everything be flooded away. Let you be completely flooded by the truth. The concept of joy and bliss if it exist only then the karma theory holds good. Because karma is all about bringing more joy and less pain. But I am saying even that idea is a lie. You are constantly connecting and creating. So when even that idea is a lie, you will not be driven towards joy or you will not be driven away from pain. Those concepts will start losing meaning for you. You will start living in a different space. So…
 +
 +
(20:15)
 +
 +
Q: Did not Krishna and Buddha advocate the theory of karma?
 +
 +
(20:18)
 +
 +
Swamiji: They might be speak… giving interview to India Post 😊. You understand.  They would have been giving interview to that time India Post! So that is the reason they would have advocated. So, one more thing when I speak to the public the truth has to be told in a different way. But when I speak to the seekers, especially when I wanted to say the ultimate truth, it has to be explained in a clear way. It’s just the levels of understanding. I am not against the first level. But when I have to say the ultimate truth, I have to completely pull down the whole structure. Only then you will be awakened, to hear the truth. Then the truth can be given to you. If it is so, so, so, so, so, so….

Next thing, creating a confidence that I can open up, I can spell out my problems and I will have only solution, I will not have side effects. Somebody going and talking outside and that trust, if it can be created, then really you will feel comfortable. You will be able to open up and you can have the truth straight. See, now, still now, I am speaking only in a generalized way. I think second session I told you. I can speak only in a generalized way. Only if you open up, I can throw light to the specific problem. Customized Enlightenment can be given only if I have the exact problems. Only then, it is possible. Everybody is afraid to open up and unless you have that confidence, neither you will be helped nor others will be helped.

Swamiji reads a letter: Swamiji, some of us did hear You well. Words cannot always describe the state of being. I for one does not even care for the identity I have. The emptiness or aloneness I felt were enough.
 +
That’s nice!
 +
 +
(01:35)
 +
 +
Swamiji reads a letter: Be Blissful, Be Unclutched- Are they same?
 +
Yes, they are one and the same. Be Blissful and Be Unclutched.
 +
 +
(01:44)
 +
 +
Swamiji reads a letter: Please tell me when a more generalized theme arises in many camouflaged forms showing up as the same shaft. For example, fear of rejection.
 +
Swamiji: Yes, more when always... you see, when you try to unclutch yourself from one shaft, the other shaft will rise. You will be constantly playing with the shaft. That is true. Next?
 +
 +
(02:16)
 +
 +
Devotee: I have question, ya. It was sort of a philosophical or may be not.
 +
Swamiji: Hmm?
 +
Devotee: It is a sort of a philosophical or maybe not. Since the concept of time or the shaft related to time itself doesn’t exist, what’s the hurry?
 +
Swamiji: Where is the…?
 +
Devotee: What is the hurry?
 +
Swamiji: What is hurry? Why should we do... what he is asking?(Swamiji asks the audience and gets the question clarified)  No, you can wait. I have no problem. You can wait. I have no problem. You see, I am unclutched. I am quite happy. If you want, you be...you listen the truth and be unclutched. Otherwise, be happy. I have no problem. I will have one more program. I have no problem.
 +
 +
(03:05)
 +
 +
Here is a question, “How is unclutch different from being detached from our loved ones?”
 +
See, your detachment is in a way hatred. See, all your loved ones you have lot of...what to say that...very harsh memories or very disturbed memories about them also. Be very clear, these loved ones you can write when you write for Me. Inside you - you know you have some hatred also about them. So it is very easy to have moodswing of attachment and detachment. That is no way connected to unclutched. Being unclutched means you will expand your space. and the quality of your relationship will be much more better. You will be unclutched from the ideas which you carry about them. You will have lot more love, lot more compassion, lot more understanding, lot more respect about them, for them. Don’t think detachment is unclutching. Detachment is when you feel disturbed, you feel detached and after few days again, you try to put your hand. It is just a play. When you feel you are disturbed, you take away your hands, again you slowly you try and go there. After some time, suddenly you take your hand. It’s just a game you are playing. That is no way connected to being unclutched. Unclutched is totally different. Hmm?
 +
 +
(04:35)
 +
 +
Devotee: I just wanted to share little bit of my experience when we were doing the silent, unclutched. We were just sitting in state of being unclutched and there was such a profound sadness that I had during that experience because I felt like I really was letting go of the identity I have you know and that is such a big part of who we identify ourselves as, that it is a very sad thing to let go and I think that’s where the fear comes from.
 +
 +
(05:08)
 +
 +
Swamiji: So be very clear, the moment you decided to speak, you let go...you forgot about your identity. That is why you are able to speak. This very thought to hold the mike and speak, your identity is not there in that space. Unless you move that, the thought to speak will not be there. It’s not a big thing. Because somehow you got all these words in your being, if you lose your identity you will have pain, all these words you created and created a shaft. That is the reason you are suffering or you think you are suffering. If you look into that profound sadness, when it is happening itself, you look without word, it will be a profound silence. Because you don’t know the right word, sometime you start using wrong word for the right emotion.
 +
 +
(05:56)
 +
 +
Many time, you start using the word pain for pleasure because you never experienced pleasure in a deep way. Whatever happens, you always think it is a disturbance. It is very easy to use the wrong word because it is very easily available. The availability is more. So be very clear, when exactly it is happening, that moment if you see, it will not be sadness. Just be, even if it is sadness, be unclutched. Sadness is what? Your past sadness and you are connecting and this is the same. That is why you say it is sadness. Relax from it. You will see it disappears.
 +
 +
(06:36)
 +
 +
Devotee: XXXXnot audible
 +
Swamiji: No, no, no. You are not unclutched by your nature. All those ideas are put into your head but you have never practised.
 +
 +
(06:59)
 +
 +
Devotee: But the question is, why do we, Indians or non-Indians, whichever race we belong to, why there are problems of jealousy, stealing, unfaithfulness in relationships or problems.
 +
Swamiji: Because of this basic problem. Basic problem of creating your identity and trying to develop the identity.
 +
 +
(07:25)
 +
 +
Devotee: So it is the identity that tells someone, that allow someone to go and murder, steal?
 +
Swamiji: Yes, yes, naturally. See, you wanted to develop, you wanted to increase the length or breadth or volume of the identity which you are showing to the outer world. So if you have vested interest, if somebody dies, you may expand that identity means you try to kill. By stealing, if you feel that you will expand that identity, you will try to steal, that’s all.
 +
 +
(07:54)
 +
 +
Devotee: But how can that identity be pleasurable?
 +
Swamiji: You see, be very clear. For you, it may not be pleasure. For them it is the pleasure
 +
Devotee: I mean…
 +
Swamiji: You can’t understand. Nothing can be done. I also don’t understand but nothing can be done. That is what is going on!
 +
 +
(08:16)
 +
 +
Devotee: Swamiji, in the outer world, if you are asked, “Who are you?” you say your name. In the inner world, at the same time, can we answer, “I am unclutched” to yourself.
 +
 +
(08:28)
 +
 +
Swamiji: You see, even you are answering I am unclutched is not going to help. If you are experiencing you are unclutched, then it is going to help. Otherwise, you will make that unclutched word one more mantra like how these vedantis have made Aham Brahmasmi as one more mantra. All these so-called vedantis you can see, the whole day they will be sitting and reciting, repeating Aham Brahmasmi, Aham Brahmasmi, Aham Brahmasmi, Aham Bramhasmi. What are you doing? I am meditating, I am doing japa of Aham Brahmasmi ten thousand times. Aham Brahmasmi is supposed to be experienced. I am unclutched should become an experience. Understand the truth and let it become experience, not repeating of ‘Aham Brahmasmi’.
 +
 +
(09:09)
 +
 +
Swamiji reads a letter: Surrendering to the guru or the divine, is it the same as being unclutched?
 +
Swamiji: I can say, just be unclutched. Do not bother whether it is same as surrendering and all because the more and more words you create, more and more complications.
 +
 +
(09:25)
 +
 +
Swamiji reads a letter: We long to hear Your blast of truth.
 +
Swamiji: Who is that person? Get ready. I will blast.
 +
 +
(09:33)
 +
 +
Swamiji reads a letter: I think that a lot of lies get told to us as we grow up especially in West and in big cities. Parents tell us these lies. Society tells us these lies. Go to school, go to college, get a degree, get a job, work forty years. Company pays for your retirement. O yes and get married with kids. It is all a lie and therefore, most people here get depressed because they sense the lie. When You teach the young ananda course, will You teach them about some of the lies that will be told to them as they grow up and how to guard against it?
 +
 +
(10:12)
 +
 +
Swamiji: Then nobody will send their kids to My course. No, I won’t tell about the lies but I will give them intelligence to handle the lies. I will give them intelligence in a very secret way and that and all, I won’t tell now.
 +
Devotee: XXXX(not audible)
 +
Swamiji: What name I have given you? Ahimsa. Then you have to start becoming Ahimsa. You should start experiencing ahimsa out and out. Even that small plant, animals you should not kill.
 +
Devotee: XXXX(not audible)
 +
Swamiji: Oh God!
 +
Devotee: XXXX(not audible)
 +
Swamiji: Then get somebody else to take care of them.
 +
 +
(11:08)
 +
 +
Swamiji reads a letter: I usually seem to get upset with my loved ones. Can I use unclutch to break this cycle?
 +
Swamiji: Yes, then naturally you will not be upset. You see, all your so-called loved ones are nothing but intimate enemies. That is the truth. So if you are unclutched, all these things will disappear. Yes?
 +
 +
(11:27)
 +
 +
Devotee: Swamiji, this is a great concept what You gave us but it is relatively very new. At least I am hearing first time now but in the Gita, whatever we have heard in the past, Lord Krishna says, “Worship Me only. If you worship, you come to Me.”
 +
Swamiji: When...you should understand one important thing. He doesn’t mean  that six feet Krishna with that peacock feather, with all that flirts around-not that Krishna. See, let you be very clear. When he says worship Me, you will reach Me, He means the Parabrahma Krishna, not Vasudeva Krishna. Krishna means embodiment of the Ultimate consciousness.
 +
 +
(12:07)
 +
 +
Swamiji reads a letter: How can a shaft obsessed mind free itself from shafts?
 +
Swamiji: Understand, all your shafts, your ideas about shaft is one more shaft.
 +
 +
(12:18)
 +
 +
Swamiji reads a letter: I need help with this. You say ‘Just understand.’ Who is it to understand? If I lose my identity, who is it that my wife is going to be relating to?
 +
Swamiji: Be very clear, your wife will be relating with you only. Don’t worry and don’t bother about that. Your wife will be relating with you only but you will be a real you. You will be much more sweet person, much more sweet person to relate with. As on now, if I ask her, she will tell how horrible you are. When you are not around, if I ask her she will tell how horrible you are. At least if you are unclutched, she will be able to relate with you properly.
 +
 +
(13:09)
 +
 +
Alright, let you understand this one truth and tonight, whole night, just be unclutched whether you are dreaming or fast asleep, remember all your dreams are also nothing but shaft. All your deep sleep state also nothing but shaft. Tomorrow morning the first moment, the first moment when you get up from the bed, remember you are unclutched.

Experience of Meditation || Dhyana Spurana || 04 March 2006

Link to Video:

Transcript:

(0:15)

I Welcome you all with My love and respects.

(0:23)

First few things. The whole session, this two day session, we will be giving you straightaway the experience of meditation, experience of your inner space. As a by-product of that meditation, experience, you may have physical, mental healing. Above all, the inner healing, spiritual growth but the direct aim of this program is to give you the experience of meditation, thoughtless space or no-mind zone, eternal consciousness, whatever you may call it… This program directly aims at the experience of meditation. The ASP I am aiming at physical healing, the NSP I aim at mental healing. In the Dhyana Spurana, that is the name of this program, I am directly aiming at the experience of meditation.

(01:46)

Just few things. These two days, completely be relaxed. Only one thing is sure. You are going to be here for two days. Don’t have any other thought. Don’t have any other expectation. Don’t have anything else in your mind. The moment you start acquiring something else in your mind, you will create tension. You will be stressed. Do not expect, of course, you are fortunate batch, the first Dhyana Spurana batch. So you don’t know what is in store, what is dhyana spurana. To tell you the secret, not only you, I also don’t know! But that is secret. We can’t tell that. Anyhow, all I know is only one thing. You will have a experience because I know the power of the presence of a Master, of an Enlightened Being.

(02:50)

So, I know what will happen in you but I don’t know how it is going to happen. That will take its own shape. So we don’t have to bother about that. It will take its own shape. Just be relaxed these two days and only one thing is certain. You will be here for next two days. Just go through in a very simple way. Don’t take things too seriously. Of course, when you take things too seriously, you create more and more complications and one more thing, the moment you become serious, the very stress doesn’t allow the energy to work on you. The very stress stops the spiritual experience happening in you. These are the usual few things I give as introduction. Try to be completely in the present moment so that you will not sleep, you will not miss. Next thing, try to take the maximum possible help from the Master’s presence. Try to have the maximum help.

(04:17)

Small story: Father was telling a young boy to move a big stone. The boy tried his best. He was not able to move. He was just standing completely tired. Father says, “No, you have not used all your potentiality. Use all your potential power.” Son is completely tired. He shouts at the father, “What are you talking? What are you saying? You are saying I have not used all my potential power! You say I have not used all my potentiality! I am tired, don't you see? Are you not seeing?” Father says, “You could have asked me. I am also your power. You forgot. You missed an important thing. You could have asked my help. That is also potential help. That is also potential power. You have an important potentiality. You could have asked me. I would have helped you.”

(05:28)

Please understand, you could have asked Me. You can ask Me. You can take the Master’s help. You have never done that. You have never considered Master is also your potential. You have never taken the Master’s help. You always think you can do it, you can do it. How that boy is standing, same way you are standing thinking you can do it. You don’t think the Master is also your potential power. So much of help available, help is available. You can have so much but you never ask or you never take it. Somehow with the western mind, taking help from somebody means it is something like a... you are degrading yourself but according to Me, it is a potential power. When it is available, try to use it maximum. So let you use the Master’s presence. Let you use the power as much as possible.

(06:50)

We will enter into the subject. The whole program is based on the one truth that you are unclutched. By the very nature, by your very nature, you are independent, illogical, unconnected, unclutched thoughts. Let you be very clear. By your very nature, you are independent, illogical, unclutched thoughts. I will try to explain how your mind is just like the fish tank bubbles. In the fish tank if you see, the water bubbles constantly, water bubbles will be rising. Let Me draw a small diagram and show you.(Swamiji draws a picture on the board)

(08:04)

Whenever I draw any picture, I write the name also so that people will understand. Water tank. Just understand this is a water tank, fish tank. You will see the water bubbles. Because it is constantly flowing, you think it is a continuity but it is not continuous flow. Every bubble is a individual. Every bit is a individual, unconnected but when you see this going in such a high speed, you start thinking it is completely connected or you think it is a continuous process, it is happening continuously. Same way in your mind, continuously thoughts are flowing. Because of its continuity, you think it is a continuous process. Otherwise, every inch is separate, independent, individual thoughts. I want you to understand one thing. You can neither control nor concentrate or develop these thoughts. You can’t do anything about it. Then you may ask, “Then why did You call for this program, Swamiji? Then why this program at all?”

(09:45)

Just to tell you that you can’t do anything I called you all. Let you be very clear, just to make it very clear you are putting too much of effort in the wrong direction. You are putting too much of effort in the wrong direction. You are trying too much in the wrong direction. Just to make you aware you are trying in a wrong direction, I called you all... One thing can be done. The moment you understand you are unclutched, you are unconnected, the influence on your being, the influence of thoughts on your being will drastically reduce, practically disappear. You will not be influenced by your thoughts. You will not be influenced by your thinking. You can completely liberate yourself, all the suffering which you are creating for yourself.

(10:54)

Let you be very clear, all the suffering-capital letter ALL, all sufferings you create for yourself. You don’t have to believe Me but that is truth. Whether you believe or not, that is the truth. All sufferings which you create for yourself, you can liberate yourself from yourself. Whatever way you are torturing yourself you find all technical ways to torture yourself. Really, you find lot of technical ways to torture yourself. Directly if you can’t, the moment your mind masters something, some technology created by yourself to torture yourself, again you develop your technology, you update yourself and come up with something new to torture yourself. Constantly you are torturing yourself. These ideas with which constantly you are torturing yourself, you can liberate yourself.

(11:57)

I want all of you to understand very clearly first at least intellectually that you are unclutched. We will go into a small experience or small exercise to understand what I mean by the word you are unclutched. Please have the notebook. Just for next ten minutes, write whatever comes in your mind without editing. Please be very clear. It is not for showing to anybody. It is just for you. You are just going to see what is happening in you. Do not edit, do not suppress, do not postpone. Don’t think how can I write? Just write whatever comes in your mind in the same language. If you are thinking half in english and half in telugu, write in the same way. If you are thinking half in tamil and half in english, write in the same way. Whatever way you are thinking, in the same way just pen down. Till I say stop, just continue. If nothing comes, just wait. Let us look into our mind actually what is going on.

(13:18)

Let you be very clear, first time you are looking into your mind. Don’t try to finish a sentence. Don’t try to be logical. Don’t look into the neighbour’s book. Just look into your mind and write. Let’s understand the truth experientially. Don’t give gap. If you give gap, you will start editing, suppressing unconsciously. I want you to know completely what is going on inside. Whatever way it is happening, write. Pen down... Do not meditate or do not purposely think. Just let it go on. Write even the conflicts, one thought trying to come up and you trying to suppress or play with it or torture, all those things. Write as it happens. If somebody sees as a witness, an objective report, how you will give, write in the same way. If you are a journalist, it will be easy for you.

(14:50)

Now when I said something, immediately some thoughts would have happened. Start writing at least that. Either for or resisting, some thoughts would have happened... and it never stops with one link. Whatever comes, whether it is logical, illogical, connected or unconnected, just go on penning, go on writing. Only thing, suddenly you may get frightened that what is going on and you may try to be logical and stop thinking unconsciously. That is the only possibility. You may stop suppressing. You may suppress. You may suppress what is going on inside. Do not suppress. Just open the pandora box. Let you be relaxed and let it happen. I am giving you the glimpse of mental state when you are not aware, when you are of course, 99% of the time, you are not aware. That is the truth.

(16:15)

You don’t have to read. Just write. Later on you will read. Don’t try to re-read or edit. Where will you have time for editing? Just write whatever is going on inside. Don’t miss even a single word which is going on inside. Write every word.... If it is getting repeated, whatever is getting repeated, it is okay. Just pen down as it is. If a computer is connected to your inner chattering and if it types...recently there are this dragon softwares which transcribes whatever you speak. If that software is connected, what job it will do, do the same job. Somehow you can hook dragon software to your inner chattering. What job that software will do, just do the same job. Only that will give you the glimpse of truth which I am going to express.

(17:45)

Unless you experience, it won’t become your unconscious memory. It will be only conscious memory. If you think you finished writing, write that thought also. “I think I have finished writing.” Pen down that thought also. Don’t leave that. You can never finish writing. It will be going on. Otherwise, it will at least it will be getting repeated. I am not going to leave you till you are bored and tired of thinking. Actually if you are made to write, you will stop thinking just out of that laziness to write. At least in that way, I will stop your mind. Just few more minutes. Finish writing. Only few more minutes. This is the important session. So don’t miss. Finish writing because based on this only, we are going to work for next two days.

(19:18)

Yes, over! You can relax. Put the notebooks down. Yes, you have any question? You can put the notebooks down. Now you have the specimen of your mind. Not exactly the mind itself but the specimen of the mind. Maybe five minutes specimen. You might have written half an hour but you have only five minutes specimen, because to settle down itself, it will take twenty minutes for you. Suppressing, suppressing, you play a big game of suppressing and making it as logical. Whenever a thought comes, you don’t allow it to flow freely. You suppress and connect it logically or you try to create a logical statement. You do not let things flow as it is. To relax from that, effort or a constant stress which you are going through, that itself will take twenty minutes.

(20:23)

So anyhow, now you have at least 5-10 minutes of specimen of your mind-how it is or what it is. Let you be very clear, whether your fear or greed or guilt, whatever you think as your mind, whatever you think as your problem, it is nothing but connected thoughts. The mind as such is complete unconnected, disorganized, independent thoughts. It is a bunch of thoughts. You try to pick up whatever thoughts you want and create a chain or create a shaft.

The Path to Bliss || Part 1 || Dhyana Spurana || 04 March 2006

Description:

Title: The Path to Bliss Part 1
Name Of The Convention: Dhyana Spurana
Session on: Experiencing spontaneous liberation
Date: 04 March 2006
Venue: Los Angeles, California, USA

In this video Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism HDH #Nithyananda​ Paramashivam says that we constantly carry some degree of pain, either physical or emotional; or we constantly experience a tension in the naval centre. This pain and tension are caused by random thoughts that we mistakenly connect and create a shaft of pain. This shaft of pain itself doesn't exist and at any given moment we can unclutch from it and experience spontaneous liberation. HDH shares with delegates of the Dhyana Spurana Convention that if we unclutch from everything we experience, including unclutching from the Master, a pure silent void will be created automatically.

Transcript:

(0:14)

Swamiji, please… Devotee: How did we get identified or imprisoned in this gross physical body? What did You not know before Enlightenment that You got to know after Enlightenment? What are the standards that we can tell whether or not he is enlightened or she is enlightened?

(0:37)

Swamiji: First thing, first thing. Let Me answer the first question.’How did we got embodied?’ To tell you honestly, I don’t know the answer, Swamiji; because I can only say, how we can liberate ourself. I am not able to say how and when we have associated ourself with this shaft. Maybe when we started thinking, when the society has started teaching, maybe that is the time we created the shaft but still I am not able to be very clear about this concept also because in the...even at the time of birth, we do carry something, some connection. So I don’t know exactly when we fell into the bondage but one thing I can say, we can surely liberate ourself. That much I am very clear. We can liberate and this is the technology but I don’t know how we got into the trap or how we entered into this trap.

(01:40)

A small story. One guy says, “For eighteen years, me and my wife were the happiest people on the planet earth. Then friend asked, “Then what happened?” “Then we both met. Then we both met each other.” So understand, I don’t know when we met each other. I don’t know when and the shaft met each other (laughs) but I don’t know really when the chain started but the chain started. That much I can be sure and how to come out of the chain, I can be sure. That is the one thing. Next question Swamiji, you asked about what is the exact technology.

(02:32)

Devotee: Not technology. What did you not know before Your Enlightenment and that You got to know after Enlightenment?

(02:40)

Swamiji: Ha, yes, yes, yes. This is the right question. Before the Enlightenment, I can say, after the Enlightenment, I did not started knowing something extra, I stopped or I dropped the knowledge which I had. Before the Enlightenment, I used to think this shaft is alive. I used to connect all the experience and see. After that I was very clear. I could see very clearly I am completely comfortable that thoughts rise and if they want to work, the body goes behind it and when it is done, it drops and disappears. The whole thing is happening. I am not bothered about it. Actually that constant fear or guilt or desire or something which constant irritation is not there, Swamiji. That is the thing.

(03:31)

After Enlightenment, the only one thing I can say, the constant irritation is not there. As on now, you understand what I mean by the word constant irritation. We all carry that constant irritation. From the moment you get out of the bed till the minute you go back to the bed, constantly you are carrying that irritation. You are waiting to jump on people. You only need some excuse. You just wait to...you are waiting to jump on people. After the Enlightenment, that has disappeared. That is not there. The constant irritation is not there. I can say, two-three things happened permanently after Enlightenment. First thing, the inner chattering is not there. The gap which I gave just now, even in that few seconds, there is no word. Pure space.

(04:31)

The second thing, the idea, the boundary, the border ends here and here starts the world, that border consciousness is not there. Whenever I have to handle the body, body moves, the handling happens but when I relax, again that idea is not there. That boundary feeling doesn’t exist. Third thing, even though body is male body, it is too personal but I can say. It is upto you to understand or not, I don’t mind. Because Swamiji has asked, at least for Swamiji’s sake, I am sharing. Even though body is male body, the identity-male or female has disappeared. The psychological identity that I am male or I am female, that doesn’t exist. It is not there.

(05:18)

And fourth thing, constant excitement, everything excites. Even small things gives big excitement. Actually, if you live around Me, you will understand. I am the person who will be enjoying all My photographs! After the photoshoot, when the CDs come, or when the books come, or the audio CDs comes, I am the first person. I will sit and play with that for four-five days. Four-five days, I will sit and play with that. I will be enjoying. These people used to ask Me, “What is this, Swamiji? You are sitting and enjoying Your own photograph?” I tell them, “What is there? I don’t feel that something is...something should not be enjoyed.” Everything creates excitement. The constant excitement is there.

(06:05)

Even a simple thing creates excitement, constant joy. You need some... simply some excuse to be excited. That’s all! You need simply some reason to be joyful to jump around. Otherwise that constant feeling of excitement, that joy is there. Even small, small thing-some small statue, some small Shiva or some small Buddha. That day that doctor was... doctor gave Me a beautiful Buddha statue. Every small thing gives excitement. Even a small things, you don’t feel bored with things. Otherwise, you will be really tired of speaking Swamiji and you know. You are speaking with people and you know. In last three years, I have done two hundred Ananda Spurana Programs - LBPs, personally which I did and at least eighty NSPs in last three years. You will feel bored but I don’t feel bored. Constantly whenever I see new face, I feel excited. Whenever new person is there to listen, I feel the excitement. Constant excitement is there.

(07:14)

Only these four happened after Enlightenment. I can say these four are the permanent thing which happened after Enlightenment. Nothing else is permanent. All these things was there earlier itself. Even these ideas which I am talking or the things which I am teaching- all these things was there even before Enlightenment, Swamiji. It is not that after Enlightenment, suddenly everything got downloaded. People believe that way but it is not true. I read and read and read. Whatever I am speaking is all from the reading or the intellectual stuff which I acquired. Only these four has become permanent. And the next question you have asked about the scale. Scale to measure and as far as this question concerned Swamiji, I feel there is no scale to tell you honestly.

(08:00)

I can say one thing. If you feel helped by that person, even if he is fake, don’t bother. Follow him. Even if you...even if he is not enlightened, if you feel your heart is vibrating with him, you feel connected to him, you are helped by him, don’t bother even if he is not enlightened, you will be helped. You will become enlightened. I have seen many incidences. The disciples grow much more than Master. Don’t bother about it. If you are not able to connect with that person, if your heart is not feeling connected, even if he is enlightened, he is not going to help you, forget about it. He won’t be able to help you. Just go behind the heart. That is the only thing I can say.

(08:44)

There is no other scale to find out whether somebody is enlightened or not. At least according to My experience, no meter exists. No meter exists. No experiment can be done. See, when they did some research on My brain, they are able to say something extraordinary, other than human beings happening but they can’t prove Enlightenment. Even the research which they did on Me, it can only prove to the extent something more than normal human being is happening. That much only they can say but they can’t say Enlightenment itself. How can that be measured? It is simply you can’t quantify it. Hmm, next?

(09:25)

Devotee: Okay, the question I have is, people from the West, we grow up here, we are born here. How do we get enlightened? And for all the people You spoken to in Your life, how many people You think have been enlightened?

(09:42)

Swamiji: You see, one thing. This is a nice question. ‘How can we be enlightened?’ And Enlightenment is not restricted to East or West. Please understand, it is no way related to East or West. Anybody who thinks, you see, if you are clutched, even if you are Eastern person, you can’t be enlightened. If you are unclutched, even if you are Western person, you are...you can be enlightened because once you are unclutched, where is the question of East and West? What I am...why I am saying, I am praising about East was, the East somehow creates a situation or atmosphere in which you can easily unclutch yourself. Constantly the ideas about unclutching is put into your head. That is the only plus point with the East. Otherwise, nothing else, is great in the East.

(10:23)

I tell people that for a premature baby, you need incubator. In incubator you put that baby for three-four months till it can live with the world, live with the atmosphere safely. Till he is safe, you put him in the incubator. Same way, East is a spiritual incubator. India is a spiritual incubator where even if you don’t want, even if you are a pucca atheist, constantly somehow some ideas will be put into your head. Something beyond your mind exists. That concept will start going inside. So that will help to...see the preliminary work is done. So it is easy for the second level work or the higher level work.

(11:20)

See, now I say rituals will not work, japa is not going to help. People who have practiced will be able to relate with Me more deeply than the people who have not practiced. That is the reason I tell, “In the East, little easy.” Otherwise, as far as unclutching concerned, whether it is East or West, I have...I am giving a new technology which is directly helpful for everybody. Whether you are East or West, just unclutch. Do not create a one more identity that you are from East or you are from West. That is enough. You are unclutched.

(11:59)

Devotee: How can we relate to You, Swamiji?

(12:02)

Swamiji: You can relate...you see, actually to tell you honestly Swamiji, if the relationship is friendly, it is going to long last. Any other relationship other than friendliness is not going to survive. I am very clear about it, Swamiji. I am very clear, any relationship, the amount of friendliness which you have, only that kind of relationship will survive. Only the friendliness is going to survive. I am very clear, Swamiji, person who touch My feet will be person to pull My feet. Whenever people bend to touch My feet, I am very clear he is going to pull the feet. So according to Me, friendliness is the only relationship.

(12:47)

Devotee: Swamiji, do you feel special relationship with any one of us or it is all the same for You?

(12:51)

Swamiji: Oh, this is another one question. It is not like a special Swamiji, like a unique. I have a individual attitude with everybody, that’s all. But not like everybody is equal or everybody is same, not like that. Everybody is unique. With everybody I cherish a different kind of relationship, that’s all. According to Me, friendliness is the only solid relationship which will stay. All other relationship may be there because of fear or greed but which will not stay, which is dangerous. People who come and straightaway touch My feet first day itself, I am afraid of them because I know it is not a matured relationship. Maybe their imagination about their Guru they project on Me and when I don’t match with that, they will blame Me. As long as I play their game, you see, as long as I do their homework, I am God. When I don’t do their homework, they will pull Me down. They will pull Me down from the throne.

(13:53)

So I believe only in friendliness but I feel to every individual being, to express the truth but I don’t feel like attacking some person or attacking some individual and I feel everybody plays a role in society, Swamiji. Even if they are hocus-pocus, they may be preparing some thousands of people. Who knows and maybe they are inspiring some thousands of people. So we are nobody to judge. We are nobody to judge. Whenever an individual comes, I feel to open the whole thing to him but I don’t feel like targeting somebody and moreover, I feel where is the scale? Where is the scale, Swamiji? There is no scale. There is no scale, something is right and something is wrong and somebody should be exposed and all those things. It is all purely subjective.

(14:47)

You see, for some people, they may experience something with Me, they may experience some truth with Me. They say He is God, nothing but God. For some people they may not be able to connect with Me. They may not be able to relate with Me. ‘Ah, Young fellow. I think He doesn’t get any job. So He became...He took up this job. Now somehow He has managed His survival and He is making little money and living His life.’ It is very easy. It’s not big thing, Swamiji. So people who feel connected to Me, for them I am different. People who don’t feel connected to Me, for them I am totally different. It is purely subjective experience. So how can we say, expose somebody, somebody is hocus-pocus or point finger toward somebody? Nothing. It is purely subjective, Swamiji. If somebody feels that they are helped by Me, beautiful. As long as you feel helped by Me, I feel helped by you, let us have the relationship, over! When you feel you are not helped by Me, say bye, beautiful, that’s all. That is the only thing can be done, Swamiji.

(15:54)

Devotee: Swamiji, I have a question. If I create a shaft for a longer period of time

(16:00)

Swamiji: Yes, I request all of you to be in this subject so that whenever you go to the different layers, we will analyse the second level-third level layers. Related to this, Annamaya kosha, shaft on annamaya kosha, let’s work on that because we are going to do meditation related to that. One more thing, I have too many things to say about this one subject of annamaya kosha and shaft. Instead of Me saying continuously, when you put questions, lot of things will come out. I am here giving you space to poke Me, to get things out of Me.

(16:37)

Devotee: If I have created a shaft of pain for instance over a long period of time…

(16:42)

Swamiji: Shaft of?

(16:43)

Devotee: of pain. What’s this a shaft has been created over a shorter period of time.

(16:48)

Swamiji: No, whether long shaft or short shaft, the shaft doesn’t exist. This moment you can liberate. There is no problem.

(16:55)

Devotee: Okay

(16:57)

Swamiji: See, the pain or any shaft, long shaft or short shaft is not the question. This moment you can break. For example, if you had a tumour, if somebody had a tumour, this moment he breaks from the shaft and he is free, the body may take few months to come back to adjust itself to the new shaft, to new life. That body may take few months but otherwise the liberation is this moment. It is spontaneous. That is why I call this truth as a spontaneous liberation.

(17:34)

Devotee: Swami, I have a half brother who has brain injury and I also go to a place where the people have had head injuries and lot of connect the shaft. They are in the moment...

(17:49)

Swamiji: No, no, no. Be very clear. They may not be able to speak about the shaft but actually, logically they are connecting the shaft. That is why they are continuously suffering. A coma person, if he doesn’t create the shaft, he will simply come out of coma. You can see in your dream. The moment you don’t...you stop creating the shaft, you are out of dream state. You are out of dream state. They are in that injury because they are creating the shaft. The moment they stop creating the shaft, they will heal themself. They will come out of that state. Coma also...if any of you have experienced coma state, you know. You will be seeing some vague picture or darkness. The moment you stop creating that shaft, you are out. You are out. So be very clear. They may not logically be able to express to you that they are creating shaft but they are creating shaft.

(18:51)

Devotee: Swamiji, when You said shaft, it reminded of the emails getting attached by the viruses. It is like a virus. It keeps on attaching.

(19:02)

Swamiji: Yes, the same thing.

(19:06)

Devotee: And also You said Swamiji that reviewing the past with updated intelligence will lead you to guilt and doctor amma says viewing the future with current intelligence leads to worry

(19:19)

Swamiji: You see, you will have disappointment if you keep appointment with the future. All your appointments with the future will lead to disappointment.

(19:28)

Devotee: But Swamiji, with this shaft in the pain as a physician I do see quite a few patients who have chronic fatigue syndrome, pain and…

(19:39)

Swamiji: I tell you, it can do miracles if they can understand this and if you can give this understanding to them, it can just do miracles because constantly your body...you see, Consciousness by its very nature rejuvenating and healing. By the very nature, Consciousness rejuvenates and heals. What else you think I am doing in the...you know in healing, what we do? We just create the Consciousness, that’s all. That only heals. That only rejuvenates. Consciousness by its very nature healing and rejuvenating. All you need to do is making them understand this and trust, when they start liberating themself, let you be very clear, it will do miracles for them.

(20:30)

Devotee: And the ones who do not have the...they cannot understand

(20:35)

Swamiji: Then they have to suffer, what to do?

(20:36)

Devotee: Give medicine and send them away.

(20:39)

Swamiji: Nothing can be done. They will bring it back, nothing can be done. If they don’t have that much of maturity to understand, then no way to help.

The Path to Bliss || Part 2 || Dhyana Spurana || 04 March 2006

Description:

Title: The Path to Bliss Part 2
Name Of The Convention: Dhyana Spurana
Session on: Experiencing spontaneous liberation
Date: 04 March 2006
Venue: Los Angeles, California, USA

In this video Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism HDH #Nithyananda​ Paramashivam says that we constantly carry some degree of pain, either physical or emotional; or we constantly experience a tension in the naval centre. This pain and tension are caused by random thoughts that we mistakenly connect and create a shaft of pain. This shaft of pain itself doesn't exist and at any given moment we can unclutch from it and experience spontaneous liberation. HDH shares with delegates of the Dhyana Spurana Convention that if we unclutch from everything we experience, including unclutching from the Master, a pure silent void will be created automatically.

Swamiji: Anybody who wants to share some of your understanding? Raise your hand. Yes.

(0:20)

Devotee: Okay, I have a question about identity.

(0:24)

Swamiji: About?

(0:24)

Devotee: Identity

(0:26)

Swamiji: Ha, yes.

(0:27)

Devotee: I don’t really understand if you take all the identity away from a person who you are afterwards because if you go to college and you have certain prepares, you finish you go to school for so many years, you know, you stripped of that. I don’t know what’s left.

(0:48)

Swamiji: You see, when you, when you have invested your whole life on that personality and purpose, when it is taken away from you, first you feel shaken but if you can relax with little patience, you will suddenly see without any purpose, pure energy is overflowing through you. That is what I call Enlightened life. Enlightened life has no goals, no purpose but it has got meaning. Just pure energy expressing itself. The pure energy is playing. It’s overflowing. According to Me, that is the best life.

(01:31)

You see, I have lived both life-life with goal, life without goal. And I tell you, the life without goal, the pure energy expressing itself is the ultimate joy. It is the ultimate joy. Just try, for few days, try to live in this space. If you don’t feel comfortable, then you can change. After all it is there waiting. It is there waiting for you. You are not going to lose anything. Purpose is there, goal is there and one more thing, when you are not enlightened, you don’t have freedom whether to be enlightened or not but after Enlightenment, you have the freedom to be enlightened or not to be enlightened. You have full freedom. So don’t worry. Come into My space. Then you can choose.

(02:14)

Devotee: This is the second fracture that I have had and I want to get out of this cycle if I am doing this like You are saying connecting thoughts and I am in some way causing this hurt to myself and the other thing actually that I experienced this morning when You told that if you can disconnect your thoughts and say that the pain that you had yesterday is not the same pain today and I told myself, ‘Gosh! If this is true, my pain should be different’ and it is different. There is a difference in the pain…

(02:46)

Swamiji: That’s all Ma.

(02:47)

Devotee: And I just hope Your teachings you know, that I am just able to break this cycle of suffering that we live with. Thank You, Swamiji.

(02:56)

Swamiji: See, actually when you understand, this moment you can apply wherever you have pain. Of course, in the meditation we will be doing that only. We will be doing that only in the meditation. Wherever you have pain or fatigue, uncomfortable feeling...one more thing, constantly you carry some pain or other. Even if you don’t have any pain, inside the stomach, in the navel area, in the Manipuraka chakra area you carry a tension. You will be constantly carrying the tension. If you don’t have the tension, you are enlightened! Either you will carry the tension or some pain. Now we will work on that pain only. Just completely unclutch yourself and see what is going on in you. You will suddenly see a new feeling happening all over your body. You will see a different ecstasy.

(03:48)

If you are unclutched from your body, living inside the body itself is a great experience-ecstatic experience. I tell you one thing. Usually people feel constantly irritated to stay in this body. That’s why when you come out of your bed, when you get out of your sleep, you feel, ‘Oh! One more day, God!’ You feel that irritation. You will not have that if you are unclutched from your body. You will feel so comfortable, so beautiful and you will feel ecstatic to be in the body. Hmm, yes.

(04:29)

Devotee: Is there difference between different enlightened masters like Yourself, Satya Sai Baba, Lord Krishna, Rama

(04:40)

Swamiji: You see, be very clear. As far as the Enlightenment itself concerned, no difference. All enlightened energies, all enlightened souls live in the same space. The expression differs according to the need and the time. According to the need and the time, the expression differs. These all...what to say that...decided by the Cosmic energy according to the need. We don’t know the logic with which the duty is allotted. We don’t know with which logic She is allotting the duty, with which logic She is playing the game. It is too big logic to be measured or to be understood by our intelligence. That much I know. Only this much I am able to say.

(05:31)

Devotee: Swamiji, is it possible to have very lofty goals in your innerspace?

(05:39)

Swamiji: Very..?

(05:40)

Devotee: Lofty goals in your innerspace?

(05:45)

Swamiji: Lofty goals in your innerspace?

(05:47)

Devotee: Right, so that there is no more room to get that so-called shaft which is…

(05:54)

Swamiji: No, no, no, no. Then you will create one more goal, one more shaft. Do not...you see, do not create any shaft. You will suddenly feel you are overflowing without even your knowledge. If you start thinking you are overflowing, again unclutch from it. Be unclutched from that also. When you are completely unclutching, unclutching, unclutching, even without your knowledge, you will be just overflowing. That is the right thing. That is the right way to be. Do not have any lofty ideal or goal. That will become one more shaft, one more shaft. These two days I am trying My best to give you the glimpse of that being unclutched and being comfortable in that state.

(06:39)

See, one moment you can feel unclutched by force and other moment you will feel suffocated and start again clutching yourself. That is not a big thing. I want somehow you to feel comfortable with that unclutched state. You should feel completely comfortable with the whole unclutched state. Only then you will constantly be in the same state just by remembering. The moment you remember that you are unclutched immediately you will feel you will be in that state. You will be comfortable in that state. Yes, nobody is sharing about their understanding. If you can share about some of your understanding, that will throw light for many people what you had and how you feel with this truth.

(07:29)

Devotee: Do you really believe the karma is why is there is so much suffering

(07:33)

Swamiji: O, you see, to tell you honestly, we don’t have solid proof for karma. We can say something as karma after happening. Can we say before happening?

(07:43)

Devotee: But there are people who suffer without any reason.

(07:47)

Swamiji: See, logically you can play with the idea karma but somehow I feel that it is waste. Even if you understand karma, what to do? Better let us do something to escape from the karma. Otherwise what is the need of sitting, going on talking is it agamya, sanchita, prarabdha, prarabdha sanchita, prarabdha agamya, agamya prarabdha. I just feel it is more or less waste of time.

(08:12)

Devotee: But do You believe people who are doing something wrong they are not suffering and people who are good sometimes suffer? Do You believe in past life karma?

(08:21)

Swamiji: This question is asked is totally subjective you see. Just because they have house, wife and car, don’t think that they are enjoying. Let you be very clear. Just because they have wealth, how can you say that they are enjoying? They might have acquired wealth but they may be living in hell, who knows? Who knows? So I don’t believe that people who have done good things they are suffering and people who have done bad things they are enjoying. May not be true because the joy and suffering itself is totally subjective. You can’t see and measure from the object.

(08:55)

May be outside, they may be smiling at you and they are showing or posing as if they are living happily. In the West especially that attitude is more and you constantly...in Tamil there is a proverb. They won’t have anything to eat but after the food time, they will take a banana leaf and nicely put the oil and throw outside as if they ate with ghee to show to the others. To show to the others they will apply oil on the banana leaf and put it outside so that people will...on the street they will think, ‘Oh! They are eating ghee pongal. They are eating all food with ghee items. So who knows what is going on inside?

(09:43)

Devotee: Last one comment. Some people believe that people as you get educated you get more problems and simple people have less problems.

(10:03)

Swamiji: Simple people have less problems because they don’t know much words. They don’t create much problems. See all your problems are nothing but words which you create inside. Educated man means more words, you are ready to be cheated by the educated group. You see, that’s all. Once you become educated then so many educated groups are sitting. People who want to sell their furnitures, people who want to sell their medicines, people who want to sell their products, they are all sitting on you. You have so many people to satisfy. You need to satisfy so many people. All their expectation you have to fulfill and work.

(10:40)

See, all advertisements are nothing but...they are waiting for you to fulfill their satisfaction. Naturally that advertisement will enter into your head, will make you work and you will work and pay for them, that’s all. They give you inspiration. You work and pay them back and you are suffering. At least with less words, you don’t suffer much. So in a way, that’s also true. Less educated: less suffering. And you can be in another one space. You can be educated and know how to unclutch yourself and you can live a beautiful and life...beautiful life.

(11:19)

Devotee: So the experience that lead me to You was I did…

(11:25)

Swamiji: (asks another devotee to know what she is saying)

(11:32)

Devotee: (continues) Spiritual study on past life and we were working with different Masters, clearing energies etc. and what happened at the end of two years was that I was crushed with so much weight and sadness from this past life information and my being was crying out. I just wanted to be..I couldn’t paint. I couldn’t be spontaneous and a friend called me and I happened to see You at the temple and I started meditating and it freed me and I had so much suffering from this experience. Then I started singing with harmonium and I never sang before ever and I started writing songs and a most beautiful energy has been coming through as a result of these meditations and I am just so grateful. So thank You.

(12:31)

Swamiji: Beautiful. That’s nice. What I am saying, it is a beautiful experience but try to be unclutched even from this. If you are unclutched even from this, it will stay permanently. If you try to hold onto this shaft, you see, if you...the moment you think that this is a beautiful shaft, you will try to elongate it and create...you will mess up the whole thing. Just be unclutched even from these beautiful experiences. I always tell people, if you are unclutched from Me, if you are unclutched from Me, you will have Nithyananda. I will be always with you. If you try to clutch yourself with Me, I will run away from you. You can’t possess Nithyananda. You can’t possess bliss.

(13:22)

Just even when the bliss happens in you, continuously unclutch yourself and suddenly you will see you are in the ocean of bliss where neither unclutching happens nor clutching happens. You are completely in a different plane. Till as long as you can continuously unclutch yourself from whatever you are experiencing, whatever you are experiencing including Me, including Me, constantly unclutch. Then you will see, you are in a different space where you don’t need to unclutch yourself at all!

(14:03)

Devotee: It is my understanding that meditation is the cessation of the mind and union with the divine but you have to create a pure, thoughtless silence, void

(14:12)

Swamiji: No, I am not even...you see, the pure thoughtless silence, void-all these things will become one more shaft. I am not trying to do that. I am just trying to help you to unclutch from the shaft which you are creating. Automatically the pure silence, void will be happening. Here you can’t work with silence or void. You can’t create silence or void. If you create silence, it will be noise. You can only stop creating shafts. Then silence will be happening in you.

Drop Your Identity || Part 1 || Dhyana Spurana || 04 March 2006

Description:

Name of Convention: Dhyana Spurana
Session on: Drop Your Identity Part 1
Venue: Los Angeles, CA, USA
Date: 04 March 2006

In this video the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism HDH #Nithyananda​ Paramashivam shared with the delegates of the Dhyana Spurana that this convention is for sincere and serious seekers who want transformation. It will make us understand the truth in our inner space and throw light onto the dark corners of our life. At the Physical Layer (Annamaya Kosha), we are protective of our identity, which is the last thing we are willing to sacrifice. Every moment thoughts are created and our body is guided by our beliefs and emotions. For example, if we believe in tiredness, we will always feel tired. Only by dropping this thought associated with our identity, will we be free of diseases. The problem is that our identity happens in our body. Constantly, we are creating a body with diseases. When we understand this, we are reborn anew. Come and find out more from the Avatar!

(0:15)

The reality which is happening. If you are really serious about transformation, this is the one and only way. If you just want to play the game, you see, many time, “No, Swamiji. It’s nice game. So we are playing.” There are so many professional seekers come to Me. They come and tell Me, “Swamiji, my seeking is much older than your age.” They come and yesterday also somebody came and told Me, “I am one century ahead of You.” That’s okay, nothing wrong. Being one century ahead of Me...half a century, not one, half a century. Nothing wrong. Another one person told Me, “My seeking is half a century ahead of You.” Right! But what have you got? What have you achieved? If you are a professional seeker, just want to do window shopping and just saw the flyer somewhere, “O, nice Swami. Let us go and see what He says.” If you have come to check out, then okay. You don’t need any meditation or anything or any of these great teachings. You can just sit and listen. If you are really sincere, serious about the business: business of transformation, if you are really serious, then this is the only way. Let you understand.

(01:39)

Now we will work step by step to take this understanding into your deeper layer and show you exactly how what I am saying is truth, how this is truth in your inner space. Now I presented this truth in front of you. We will work in every step in the level of guilt, in the level of fear, in the level of desire. We will just see how there are so many thousands of thoughts and you create, pick up some thoughts and connect with each other and create your desire and run behind that and make your life hell thinking that it will give you joy and finally it gives only pain and even then you are not ready to give up your belief and again just because you started believing, you are afraid to give up. If you give up then you have nothing else to do. The fear of not doing anything else or fear of being alone, that drives you crazy.

(02:40)

How you create step by step by step your hell beautifully or in ugly way: not beautifully, ugly way. We will see how you are creating your hell. The moment you understand how you create your hell, naturally you will stop creating. That is enough. You don’t need to start creating your heaven because heaven is. Heaven is existing. All you need to do is just stop creating hell for yourself and for others. You are not only creating for you, you create for others also because you feel lonely in your hell. You call your neighbours also, “Please come, come. Please come. Why don’t you share little bit? Why not let us share? Let us share our space.” You are not feeling comfortable when you are alone. That is why I say all your relationship is nothing but creating more and more intimate enemies. You create more and more intimate enemies.

(03:46)

Let you be very clear; by your very nature, you are unclutched, unconnected, illogical, independent and completely unclutched thoughts. We will take this truth layer by layer and experience it. If you experience this moment, if you understand this moment, nothing else is necessary. Actually this is enough. We are done. If you understand this moment and if you are feeling, ‘Yes, nothing more to do,’ then this is done! This is enough, nothing else is necessary but sometime we need to throw the light at every corner, to every corner. There are so many dark corners in your being. We will throw light to every corner so that your being can become completely Enlightened, completely Enlightened.

(04:53)

Now first few things to be understood in the physical level, in the annamaya kosha. Just very simple basic two understanding. Then you will understand how you are stopping the growth or the rejuvenation, self-healing process by thinking and connecting and creating shafts. Every moment, constantly your thoughts are creating your body. That is the first thing. Next thing, your body is guided by your beliefs and emotions. First thing, your body is created by your body, by your mind and thoughts. Next thing, it is guided by your emotions and beliefs which you are carrying. There is a beautiful book written by Bruce Lipton, ‘Biology of Belief’. It is a beautiful book. After a long research he says, your body is not guided by cells and as you... as we are all made to believe in Biology, your body is not guided by cells. You are not just a bio-mechanism. He says, you are guided by your belief and your emotions and he goes further deep to explain step by step everything.

(06:47)

Anyhow, five thousand years ago, Patanjali is very clear. He says very clearly, “Just by Ichamathra, just by your desire, you create your Sarira.” Just by your desire, you create your body and you can destroy or you can do whatever you want with your body. Now understand with this truth of you being unclutched... If we understand that your body is being created every moment by your thoughts, by your emotions, why are we continuously carrying diseases? Why are we again and again bring our diseases back? And one more thing, according to, even according to Biology, you are creating your body, you are rejuvenating your body continuously. Your liver is replaced once in six months. Your complete intestine, intestine system is replaced once in twenty one days. Constantly you are replacing yourself. You are rejuvenating yourself. Then why are we bringing, why are we holding on to our diseases?

(08:16)

Because of your old mental set up, when you believe in something, when you create an identity, when you start believing the identity which you are carrying about yourself, that continuity of identity creates a same kind of body. So the problem which is in your identity happens in your body. If you don’t drop that identity, the body also continuously suffers. Even the new body which you create will be the same old problem. Constantly you are creating body with diseases. If you can understand and relax with this truth, if you can understand and relax with this one truth- ‘You are unclutched,’ you will rejuvenate your body and you will create a new body.

(09:19)

That’s what Shiva says, ‘Be born anew.’ By understanding this truth, be born anew. Whether you have pain or any suffering, just completely unclutch yourself and see. The pain which you experienced ten days ago, the pain which you experienced nine days ago, the pain which you experienced yesterday, do not connect them and give a label. Just be very clear, something is happening in that area. Something is happening in my body. Do not label. Do not start believing, ‘I have continuous pain.’ The moment you start believing you have continuous pain, you have created problem.

(10:07)

Even if you get rid of that pain, you will be waiting for that pain. ‘O, that pain has gone but I don’t know when it will come back.’ Inside your mind, you don’t believe that it has gone once for all. You will wait to bring that pain back. You are waiting to get hurt. You are waiting to get the disease. You are just silently, patiently meditating for the disease to come inside. That is what you are doing. Waiting for the disease, particular disease to come in means you are meditating. You are just waiting for it to come inside. You are just asking, “Oh, when it will come I don’t know. When it will come I don’t know.” It is almost like meditating for God. You are meditating for pains. You are meditating for diseases. When you create even one shaft, one idea, you have this problem, you have that problem, constantly you will be bringing it back. Even when you don’t have, you will not be able to believe that you are not having. You will not be able to believe you are not having.

(11:24)

You can see in your life, in the young age if your mother teaches you, if you are taught by your mother, “If you go in the rain, you will have wheezing,” after you grow, even after you become old, you don’t even have to go in the rain. Just see the rain through the window, you will sneeze. Moment you see the rain through the window, you will start sneezing and sometimes by mistake you may not observe and you may not sneeze. You may not sneeze but even then, “O, it’s raining but somehow I am not feeling any problem. I am not feeling cold. Why? What happened? Now-a-days I have become alright or what?” Constantly you suspect and meditate for two days till it comes to you.

(12:18)

Till it comes, we will be constantly meditating because the moment you start believing something, the moment you start connecting that shaft and start believing, even if it doesn’t happen, you are not comfortable. You wanted that shaft to be executed. Only then you feel that identity is safe. You are ready to do, you are ready to sacrifice anything to protect your identity. Be very clear, including your body, you are ready to do anything to protect your identity. You can see in your life. To protect….that is the last thing which you want to lose. You don’t want to lose the identity. To protect the identity you will do anything. Actually people can sacrifice anything. It is easy to sacrifice wealth. It is easy to sacrifice money. It is easy to sacrifice wife because it is constantly hurting! It is easy to sacrifice all these things but it is not easy to sacrifice the identity. It is very easy to sacrifice things which is hurting.

(13:30)

I have seen many people. They will give all their wealth, everything and run away to Himalayas. They will be sitting in Himalayas but they would have given up so many things but they will not give up the seat in which they are sitting. In the Himalayas, in the temples I have seen, they will fight for the place where they sit. They would have given up so many things but they won’t be able to give up that chair or the seat where they are sitting or that kamandalu. Everyday they will be wiping and washing that kamandalu. Ten times they will be cleaning and it will be shining but they will be cleaning. They would have given up so many things but they can’t give up that kamandalu and even if they somehow if they manage to give up this kamandalu also, they can’t give up that identity. ‘I am this, I am that.’ It is very difficult to give up the identity. You will sacrifice anything for identity. All your diseases are nothing but sacrificing your body for the sake of your identity.

(14:36)

When you start believing you have an identity, when you start believing you are somebody, according to that belief, you alter your body. According to that belief, you force yourself to act. Your body creates or maintains particular disease according to the identity which you create, according to the beliefs which you create about your body. Tiredness, chronic fatigue- all these things are directly related to this shaft. If you start believing, you see, yesterday’s tiredness and day before yesterday’s tiredness or tiredness which you experienced one month ago, they are complete independent experiences but when you start connecting all of them and saying, “By 8 o’clock, I will become tired.” If you create a shaft, by 6 o’clock itself, you will start preparing your mind, “Eh, it is becoming 8 o’clock. I have to fulfill my belief. I have to fulfill my faith. I have to fulfill my identity.” You have to fulfill your identity. You start creating the dullness or lethargic feeling by 6 o’clock itself. You have to prove your identity because you created it!

(16:06)

Sometimes you may forget to prove your identity to the outer world but you will never miss to prove the identity to yourself because if the outer world doesn't believe your identity is also is okay but you yourself start suspecting your identity is too dangerous. You will never let that happen. Be very clear, I am exposing all the cunning games you are playing with yourself, all the games which you are playing with yourself. You will never let down your identity with yourself because without that identity, you will be afraid. What to do? How to be? You need to be. You can’t be without anything. So you have to be somebody. So create some identity. All your identity is a pure myth. You see, I can generalize and tell you these are the usual problems which you suffer in the annamaya kosha, in the first layer because of your identity and because of the belief or because you connect and see the shaft.

(17:22)

If you can come up with your questions, now, we will have few minutes. Either you can share some of your understanding how you are creating shaft and suffering related to this annamaya kosha and how you understand about that now. You can share your understanding or you can put some question. You can ask some question. Anything related to this annamaya kosha we will analyse now. Layer by layer we will analyse. Otherwise, all the questions at a time, we will forget the truth which we are supposed to understand. Layer by layer we will understand. We will throw light and we will apply this same truth and try to liberate ourself from the shaft which we are creating or which we are thinking we are creating. Again whether that shaft exists or not we don’t know but we constantly think we have created that shaft.

(18:38)

So now we will take few minutes to share. You can share some of your understanding now or you can put any question. To share some of your understanding, you need the courage to laugh at the drama or the game which you are playing. If you don’t have the courage, you can’t open up because again you will be protecting the identity which you are carrying. Only if you feel, if you feel courage is enough to laugh at the foolish drama which we are constantly doing only if you understand it is foolish drama. Otherwise, you can carry on. No problem. Only when you understand the foolish drama which you are doing in the name of identity which you are carrying, then only you will be able to laugh at it. You will be able to open what you are doing or how you are playing with this shaft.

Description:

Name of Convention: Dhyana Spurana
Session on: Drop Your Identity Part 2
Venue: Los Angeles, CA, USA
Date: 04 March 2006

In this video the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism HDH #Nithyananda​ Paramashivam shared with the delegates of the Dhyana Spurana that this convention is for sincere and serious seekers who want transformation. It will make us understand the truth in our inner space and throw light onto the dark corners of our life. At the Physical Layer (Annamaya Kosha), we are protective of our identity, which is the last thing we are willing to sacrifice. Every moment thoughts are created and our body is guided by our beliefs and emotions. For example, if we believe in tiredness, we will always feel tired. Only by dropping this thought associated with our identity, will we be free of diseases. The problem is that our identity happens in our body. Constantly, we are creating a body with diseases. When we understand this, we are reborn anew. Come and find out more from the Avatar!

(0:15)

You can put any question related to...any question, any problem which you are experiencing in annamaya kosha. We will apply this truth and one more thing, if you have questions do not keep it. Do not hide. Open it so that we can throw some light on that. Just as I told you in the first session, the introduction session, you can take My help. That is also your potential and if you don’t take, you are not using your potential completely. You are not using the potential. Let you use all your potentiality. Let you open up completely. Unless you put the questions, I won’t be able to exactly give you the customized truth. Now I have given the truth in a generalized way. If you put your questions, if you open your problems, we can customize it. We can throw more light on that.

(01:20)

Actually when I decided this, when I was thinking about this Dhyana Spurana, I thought I will design a Program where I don’t have to speak much. I am tired of speaking. In last three years, 4000 hours of DVD cassettes we have, recorded DVDs. 4000 hours of My lectures in last three years. We have a huge archives. I don’t know what all I have spoken! And still they are not able to catch up with it. As on now, they published only hundred volumes. Only hundred volumes have come out in ten language. By the end of this year, they are expecting two hundred volumes to come out. Anyhow, hmm…

(02:08)

Q: Swamiji, the continuity of the pain seems to create the shaft rather than the continuity of the thoughts.

(02:15)

Swamiji: No. Q: I am not able to…

(02:18)

Swamiji: Please be very clear. Continuity of the shaft only, you see, unless you create the shaft, you will not even identify it is pain. See, something is happening... for example, something is happening in your stomach. You will not call that as a pain unless you bring your memories of earlier same experiences which you put in the file titled ‘pain’. Ten years ago which happened in your stomach, nine years ago which happened in your stomach, eight years ago which happened in your stomach- all those memories you have put in a file and put a big title ‘pain’, ‘stomach pain’ and kept in your brain in one corner. The moment something starts happening in you, you pick up that file. Unless you pick up that file, you will not even get the title ‘pain.’ Be very clear, the very first word itself is from the shaft.

(03:22)

One more thing, this may look like mystical but let Me be honest. Patanjali says very clearly, “Any pain can be used as a door to Enlightenment.” Actually I was shocked, ‘How can pain be...at the time of pain you only shout O God. How can it be used to use as a door to Enlightenment?’ He says, “Do not label.” Patanjali is a great scientist. He is a great scientist. “Do not label. Just look what is going on just like how a child, small child sees something new with all excitement and curiosity. Same way, just look what is happening. Just see.” You will understand two thing: First thing, your body is rejuvenating itself, reconstructing itself. That process only you are calling it as pain. That is the first thing. Next thing, when you don’t label that as a pain, that feeling you don’t have to fight with that feeling. When you don’t fight with that feeling, you are not fighting with the rejuvenation process itself. You are encouraging self healing. You are helping self healing.

(04:45)

When you label that as a pain, not only you are fighting with the self healing process or reconstruction process, rejuvenation process, when you fight, you elongate the process and have more pain. When you do not fight, you may think, ‘Oh, only when you have pain you will understand all these things, Swamiji.’ Please be very clear, it is not that I never had any pain or it is not that I don’t have any pain. You sit in My chair and do the job. Then you will understand hours together. At least here only two days workshops. In India, four days workshop. Any workshop is four days. Average eighteen hours I sit. Anybody has done NSP in India? There are witnesses. Eighteen hours I sit in this same pose.

(05:37)

Of course, here chair is little comfortable. In India, chairs are not like this. One more thing, all American chairs are made for back pain. That is an important thing. See, whenever I sit in that wooden chair, I never feel anything. I don’t feel any pain. In India, that wooden asanas, that straight, one this way, another one this way-horizontal plane and one vertical wooden thing. You are completely balanced but may be some lobby, tool lobby’s company-the people who are creating the chair and back pain medicine producers. Who knows? Who knows what is happening here? But these chairs are all made for back pain. That much is sure. Anyhow, understand, it is not that I don’t have any pain or anything. When I travel eighteen hours in the flight, I do have the pain. I do experience. Of course, I don’t label that as a pain. I just relax and look into it. Even before labelling, I look into it what is it!

(06:49)

And the same way-fatigue. When the fatigue starts, look into it. People who live around Me, they know, morning when I come out of My room, the face and the voice, it will be same when I go back to My room after twenty hours. Not magic, not because of Enlightenment. People think, ‘Oh, You are Enlightened! Because of that…’ Nothing, be very clear, it is not because of any magic or Enlightenment. Just look into it. Do not create shaft. This is the only simple technique. All you need to do is do not create shaft which is not there. Just remember you are unclutched and do not create shaft. The fatigue which you felt yesterday, the fatigue which you felt one year ago, the fatigue which you felt two years ago, they are no way connected to each other. They are independent incidents.

(07:51)

Something came up, happened, over but you label them and keep them all in a safe file for future reference, for future reference how they keep in the hospitals, just like that you have a file. ‘I have a chronic fatigue problem.’ Big file. Seven o’clock means I have to be...I will be tired. Eight o’clock means I can’t do anything more than that. After 8.15 if somebody asks me anything, I will shout at them. I will be tired.’ You have a big file and you refer that file and always fulfill that file because only when you fulfill that file, you feel you exist. Otherwise you feel your identity is shaken. You are not the same person. Somehow you want to believe you are the same person everyday. Be very clear, seven years ago, the person who existed in your name and today who is existing in your name-these two are not the same person. Understanding, maturity...of course, maturity never happens. That is different. At least age, information-all these things are totally different but somehow you try to retain the identity.

(09:16)

You don’t trust you also grow and you don’t trust others grow. Of course, you don’t trust others grow, that is okay. That I can understand. You don’t trust, you don’t even trust that you are also growing. You don’t trust you can change the fatigue. Even if you have felt the fatigue one year ago, now there is every possibility you can update yourself. Your body might have overcome. You may not have that problem now. You are not interested in that. You wanted to retain the identity. You can sacrifice anything for identity. That is why you try a very cunning...very polite but cunning game. This whole thing is just the game which you are playing.

(10:10)

You may be thinking, ‘Swamiji, when somebody comes…’ Actually it happened. One person came to Me with a chronic headache and he was complaining. I said, “It is all in your mind. Why don’t you give Me little time to explain and try to understand and then it will disappear.” He says, “When I come with the pain, instead of consoling me, You are saying this is all in my mind. It is a deep disrespect to me.” And I told him, “Please understand, it may look like deep disrespect.” And people feel really offended when I say it is in your mind, because their identity is attacked. I am straight away attacking their identity. See, you may feel offended but what I am saying is truth. Let you be very clear. I can console you. That is not a big thing, “Oh, you will become alright. You are great, you are nice person, don’t worry. I will heal you.”

(11:10)

All these things are okay and one more thing. Let Me be very clear, open. Now I am opening another one business secret. Healing is nothing but giving you one more shaft... You have one shaft. You start believing somehow you have the body. That itself is a great lie. You come with that big lie. First lie: you have a body. Second lie: you have a disease in that body. Now, somehow I manage to take that one lie and replace another one lie ‘you have the healed body.’ That’s all and you heal yourself. Be very clear. It is purely playing with lies. Somehow I take that one lie that you have diseased body. Basic lie is you have a body. That is the first lie because you don’t have a body. That is the truth. You may play with this body but you don’t have this body. You are playing with this body or you decided to play with this body.

(12:12)

Anyhow, that is the first lie. The second lie: you have a diseased body. That is the second lie built on the first lie. When you come to Me actually second level and third level lies can be easily operated and opened. The first level lie is the difficult thing. The second level, third level lie, they are all superficial lies. It’s almost a simple belief. It is very easy to change it. I just take that lie and replace this lie., ‘You have healed body.’ Over! And you feel, ‘Oh! Swami has done a great help for me.’ Let you be very clear. This whole thing is myth. You are playing with some lies. So I play with some more lies, over. And let us ask another one question. Alright, you come with a knee pain. I heal. You think that once for all you are healed? I made your whole knee with the steel? In ten days you will have same pain. You will have the pain. If you don’t change your mental set up, you will bring that pain back because your mental set up which is bringing the disease. Your mental set up which is bringing the disease.

(13:22)

Unless we go to the depth and touch the core, I have always seen, when people do meditation and have the healing, once for all they are healed. They never get the disease back but people who come to Me for healing, I tell them, “Why don’t you come for meditation program?” They think, ‘Oh, You just healed me Swamiji. I don’t want to meditate and all.’ They just want the energy from Me but they don’t want to listen to what I am saying. Then I tell them, “Alright, I have no problem. Let you be healed.” They will be healed because of that energy but it won’t stay permanently, because unless the deeper transformation happens, what can happen? You will bring that same disease back in ten days. Ten days is too much I think. You will bring it back because you are carrying the same mind but if you also work with the mind, if you also cooperate with Me with the meditation, anything which happens can be permanent. It can stay with you because you can understand the truth. You start unclutching yourself.

(14:27)

Any meditation can be called as meditation only if it gives you the experience of being unclutched. You may not know the word. If it just gives you the experience, then it can be called as meditation. Unless it gives you the feeling or experience of being unclutched, it can’t be called as spiritual technique. One important thing, especially Western mind will be shaken with this truth because western mind is trained to believe you are nothing but your mind. At least in the East, from the beginning, they know, even though they don’t realise, there is a unconscious belief there is something more than mind exists. There is something more than mind exists. You are atman, brahman. You don’t understand what is brahman or atman, that is different but there is one more word inserted into you which is beyond mind.

(15:21)

You understand that much even if your mind is not functioning, you will not die. There is something more in you. There is some more ingredients in you than mind, than just the mind masala. That is, you are made to believe or you are given that understanding from the young age but with the western mind, it is very difficult for them to understand and you will really feel you are shaken. I am shaking what you think as you. Your identity is questioned... I am giving you the truth which shakes your very belief about your identity, your very attachment with the identity. You can see in your life what all the dramas you are doing. Yes, next…Alright, I will do one thing. All of you finish talking. Then I will give the final because if I start talking, somehow by My nature, I don’t stop. Orating, orating, orating. Yes, all of you finish. Then I will start. Yes…

(16:34)

Devotee: The inner identity that You call, is it the function of social environment?

(16:39)

Swamiji: Yes, yes, yes. That is conscience. That is what I call conscience which you are carrying and struggling. With which you are struggling is conscience.

(16:48)

Devotee: Is social environment, education, conditioning, if all those elements…

(16:54)

Swamiji: These are all masala, ingredients which creates the conscience. Hmm, next? Conscience is given to you by the people who don’t follow their conscience, because conscience as such cannot be followed. Even if you try to perfect it, there will be some impossible ideal it will keep. It’s like you run behind the ideal and the Ideal is running behind something else and both of you are chasing something which nobody knows. All of you know that Yama story? Anybody who doesn’t know that story? Oh! There are few people. Just for them, I will tell the story.

(17:40)

Three women died and reached the Yama... He started enquiring to give the judgement. First lady came. “Did you live a pure life?” She said, “Yes, master. Yes, Lord. I lived a pure life. Even mentally I have not done any mistake. I have lived such a beautiful, pure life.” He typed, saw his laptop. Record says ‘Yes’. Now they have computerised everything. It says, “Oh! alright. It’s nice. You lived a pure life. Have the golden key. Go to the Swarga, enjoy. First class AC Suite. Enjoy.” She went away. Second lady came.”Did you live a pure life?” She put her head down. ”Master, physically I lived a pure life but mentally I used to watch movies. So whenever I see the heroes, really I feel little tempted but physically I lived a pure life. I have never done anything wrong.” He typed the laptop. He saw the record. Alright, at least you told the truth. You are honest. So have the silver key. Go and enjoy second class.” Third lady came. He asked, “Did you live a pure life?” She put her head down. “I was a dancer in night club and I have done whatever you can imagine and I have done whatever you can’t imagine. I have done everything.” She has put her head down. She says, “Now only you have to save me, Lord.” He looked this side and that side.He said, “Have my room key. I will there in few minutes.”

(19:36)

Be very clear, whoever gives you conscience, they are giving their room keys. Whoever gives you conscience, they are all giving their room keys. Person who can hide his personal life from others, only they create conscience in you. Let it be very clear. Let you be very clear. See, creating impossible ideals is the best way to rule people. Once you create an impossible ideal and insert into his brain, create guilt, throughout his life he is a slave. Let Me tell you, real morality will happen when you integrate yourself, not when you break yourself, not when you are schizophrenia. See the morality of schizophrenia is not going to help you. You became schizophrenia. Let you be very clear. That is no way going to help you. That is why I tell you, conscience is poor substitute for Consciousness.

If you are conscious, a different kind of morality will be around you. You will be just radiating so much of love, so much of joy, so much of ecstasy. Not only you will never sin, you will not do anything immoral, you will inspire so many people to be like you. You will become just like a phosphorus. You see, phosphorus...wherever phosphorus is kept, it will burn everything. You will become like a phosphorus. Wherever you are kept, you will awaken so many people. You will create true morality. You will create an enlightened society. Such beautiful moral life and to tell you honestly, there are so many problems which exist in the West, I have not even heard about it. Really sometimes I sit and give My gratitude to that Ultimate energy or God or Shiva or whatever I call, ‘Oh God! I am so grateful I am born in Indian village.’ Not even city, all Indian cities have now completely westernized. Indian village where nothing of this thing exists. I have not even heard about these problems.

(01:34)

Especially I went to AAPI... last year I went to AAPI-American Association of physicians. The things which they are discussing...they invited Me to attend a session to inspire the youngsters. When they put the questions, first time I felt I don’t know. I was not able to answer. I said to tell you...I told them directly, “To tell you honestly, I never even thought about these problems. Forget about knowing the solution, we never even heard about these problems. We have not even heard about these problems. Actually after attending AAPI, really My gratitude has multiplied to the God, because these youngsters, the western society, the problems which they face, God! I never even heard about all these things! Somehow the Eastern society, at least in the village societies, not the cities. The cities can’t be called as Eastern society. The village society, you are not given moralities. You are given more truths.

(02:50)

At least in My case and all, My grandfather and all those people, they used to sit and detailed way, they will explain things to Me. They will explain, they will tell lot of stories. See, whenever you are made to understand, it doesn’t stay as conscience. It becomes part of your being. You imbibe. It is not a rule but when it is given as a rule, it becomes conscience. Here nobody is there to talk to you. You are given straight laws- this, this, this. Mother is busy in the office. Father is busy in the job and you are sitting here with laws over! And naturally you will try to break them. You will try to break them. Somehow I am fortunate. My elders used to tell Me clear stories- what for, what is. It used to be an inspiration.

(03:45)

Recently, we got one book, the book which I used before enlightenment. It was there in the... with some of My friends. I think some of our ashramites, they have seen that book. So many things I have wrote down in that book. When I read, I was shocked. How many people have inspired Me, how all I derived inspiration. You see, throughout that book, I have not written a single morality. I have written so many stories about Prahlada, Markandeya, Dhruva-only inspiration. You are given only inspiration: never laws, never conscience. It was only inspiring. It was only technique. Actually if you receive techniques, it will directly lead to consciousness. If you receive instructions, it will lead to conscience. Teachings will create conscience; techniques will create consciousness. Yes…next?

(04:52)

Q: How do you explain new diseases like blood pressure? There is no blood pressure shaft yet? A disease like blood pressure, how do You explain that because there is no shaft yet.

(05:08)

Swamiji: You create a shaft. You see, there is no need for shaft in the outer world. You create a shaft at some particular point. You are having this and one more thing, see there are so many diseases which can be measured only by instruments. Those diseases, the moment you start believing that instrument is the authority, you start creating. You can see especially in the psychosomatic field, the psychiatric field, the more and more new diseases are discovered, more and more patients are discovered. No, really. Ten times when you see, especially these American TV advertisements, oh God! Constantly, ‘Are you having little depression? Why don’t you try this medicine? Are you having little headache? Why don’t you try this medicine? Are you having little pain in one corner? Why don’t you try this medicine? This may be this. This may be that. This may be that.’

(06:02)

Constantly when you are bombarded with these ideas, you see, constantly when you see McDonalds, naturally you feel like eating. You will feel the hunger. You will imagine, start imagining the hunger. In India, if you travel in the highways, you will come to know that there is a village by seeing a temple tower. Here you will come to know there is a county by seeing the McDonald’s tower. McDonald’s tower is replaced by temple tower. Constantly you will feel like...naturally you will feel like eating. So when these ideas are supplied to you, you see, you have heard about many ideas about BP from others, others’ experiences. So naturally what you do? You keep all those file and you create a shaft and you are waiting, ‘when I feel the same symptom, I think I have BP.’ But let you be very clear, the pressure which you had ten years ago, the pressure which you had nine years ago, the pressure which you had eight years ago, they are effects of independent incidents. When you start connecting and believing them, believing I have BP, you will simply start creating constant pressure because anything which you believe, your body follows. If you believe you will have pain, your body will follow.

(07:25)

I have seen some of our ashramites, somehow from the beginning, I managed to make them believe that they don’t have to sleep. Still now, I can say at least ten-fifteen people in the ashram, they hardly sleep for two hours. Somehow I made them believe. Hardly they sleep two hours and no eye wrinkles, whatever you say in the West, all that nonsense, nothing is there. And here people believe that if you don’t sleep, you will have that...what do you call? Anyhow, better not knowing these words. Better let Me not know these words. No, less you know about all these things, you won’t create much and you can come and see. Of course, people who have come and stayed in the ashram, they know. Inside ashram, nobody walks, they only run. Somehow, I am successful in making them believe that they don’t have to sleep that much. They are, not only they are alive, they are active. They are energetic. They don’t feel... see, your body follows what you believe. Your body follows what you believe.

(08:32)

I personally feel we had the power of flying. We lost by social conditioning. Of course, I don’t have solid proof to show to you all. That is why I can’t emphasize on this but if you trust I have little intelligence or I tell something which works, which helps in your life, let you be very clear, I have seen one yogi flying with My eyes. With My eyes, I have seen. We had the power. By nature, human beings had the power. Maybe in course of social conditioning, when you are made to believe you can’t, you can’t, you can’t or when you are made to believe this is your boundary, you started...your body started following that boundary. See, I Myself have seen one Lama who is 136 years old. Let Me tell you the story how I met him.

(09:29)

I went to Nepal. From Nepal, actually before the Tibet there is a. ..before the border there is a place called Potala monastery. Any of you had been there, you would have seen that. Beautiful place. If you walk into the jungle some hundred kilometer, you will see a village where lamas live together. I went there because they told Me that very elderly lamas live there. Very old people live there. So I went there to see. I asked one villager, “Can I see some old lama?” He said, “Go to that field. One lama is working. He is also elderly person. Go and meet him.” I went there. He was working in the field with that yak and all those things. I asked, “Babaji, Swamiji, I heard that...and they told Me he will speak little english. He will understand little english. So I thought I can manage few words. I asked him, “Babaji, I heard that you are a very elderly person. Can you say some of your experiences? Something about your life?”

(10:30)

He started laughing and said, “What? elderly? I am only middle aged man. I am just 136. There are so many people who are 180, 190. Go and talk to them.” Be very clear, it is not myth. Medically doctors are certifying. From Wisconsin University, the group of scientists have gone to experiment on them. They went and did some experiments on them and biologically, they are more than 190 years. There are so many people who are living 190 years. I asked him, “Babaji, how you people are living so long?” He said, “What is there? From the beginning, we know human...life of the human being is 300 years.” No, from the beginning, they are made to believe and they took Me to the graveyards. It is ...every graveyard, 280 years, 290 years. In one graveyard, it is written ‘This person had untimely death at the age of 180-untimely death in 180.’ No, really. You all should visit that village. You will understand, what I am saying is not...please don’t think what I am saying is lie.

(11:46)

There are so many western newspapers covered. The Wisconsin University went and did research on them. They say that the energy produced by their body is six times more with the same quantity of food. Simply faith. Simply belief. Your body is just like a child. Whatever you believe, simply the body will follow. All you need to do is create a strong, right belief or just be unclutched. Even if you are unclutched, things will take its own turn and you will constantly rejuvenate yourself but when you start having the wrong beliefs, wrong understanding, you will abuse your body. You will disrespect your body. Actually I was shocked when I saw that lama, when I saw that baba and another one swami who has attended twelve kumbh melas. I have seen him in Allahabad. He has attended twelve kumbh melas. Twelve kumbh melas means 12x12, 144. Twelve kumbh melas and he is healthy. He is going around.

(13:10)

So be very clear, it is your faith. Whatever you believe your body simply follows. You are made to believe human beings’ age means 70-90 years and by the time you become 70, you prepare your body, ‘Oh! I have become too old.’ You constantly talk. ‘I have become old, I have become old, I have become old’ and prepare the body and die. Constantly you start talking. You start believing you have become old. Especially in the West, elderly people are not respected. It is very pathetic. Elderly people have to compete with the youngsters. That’s a...in the East, elderly people are respected in village culture. I can’t say complete East. East has gone to dogs. No really. All the so-called cities have gone to dogs. Completely confused. At least in villages, once you become sixty or seventy, the kids will take care of you. In those days, kids used to take care of the parents and the age is respected. They will come to you for counselling. They will come to you for some ideas. They will come to you for any things related to spirituality or rituals or some customs and traditions and all those things. You feel you are wanted. You don’t feel that people are waiting to give you send off.

(14:42)

Here, just people are waiting to say, ‘Quick, quick, it is too late. What are you doing here and here you feel like people are ready to give you the send off. There at least you feel you are wanted. People are giving you some respect. You are doing something. Actually if you live in that type of community where you are wanted, your life will be prolonged. You will live an energetic, active, happy life because your mind is directly related to body. Yes, next…(listens to a devotee) O, it is not like that. Lamas do marry, they do marry also. You see, in Buddhism, anybody who takes birth, they have to go to monastery. It is compulsory and after the age of twenty eight, you can decide. They give three option: at the age of fourteen, they allow you to marry and after that, twenty one they give you break. They give you the chance. You can marry and again twenty eight, they give you the chance you can marry.

(15:48)

Even if you marry, they give you a different kind of life but there are lamas who are married and especially the yogi about whom I am talking who used to fly. He is married and he had fourteen kids. He used to...he was...he is a great inspiration for Me in the initial level. He himself is not enlightened but he is a great person who has controlled the prana, who was able to handle the prana. He is a great yogi. He only took My first photograph. The photograph which is taken at the age of nine. The first photograph was taken by him only. I asked him, “Why are you doing all these things?” That time I don’t know what all will happen. He told, “You don’t know now. When time comes, you will understand.” And he has even written that in a paper behind that photograph. That photo original copy we have, we have in the ashram. Behind that he has written in his own hand and signed it. ”Now you don’t know the value of this photo. When time comes, you will know. That time, let you remember me.” He has written in Tamil and signed it.

(16:54)

Then again, I am giving you the energy to play with that superficial life, Ma. See, if you think that you having body is a truth, then healers initiation is truth. You understand? Do you have body? Then healers initiation is true and attend. Now what I said is ultimate truth. Before that, what I was saying is the ultimate truth. Even you having body is a lie. When you reach that state, then you don’t need healers initiation. Then you are already a healer. (listens to a devotee) Then it means be very clear, you have to attend healers initiation. There will be a state what is pinching? The pinching which is done ten years ago, the pinching which is done nine years ago, the experience which you felt one year ago-they are not connected. They are independent. Now what you are experiencing is not the same which you experienced one year ago. When you understand that, then you don’t need healers initiation. Doctor Amma is laughing. Arey, I am speaking about truth. I am speaking about...of course, when you understand this, what I am saying, then there is no need for healers initiation.

Nothing wrong because it doesn’t exist. Let you be very clear it doesn’t exist. When you are very clear it doesn’t exist, any time when it is taken away, you won’t bother. Even if you bother, it’s okay. What is there? Even the bothering doesn’t exist. The idea of bothering is nothing but one more connection. The bothering which came to you nine years ago, the bothering which came to you ten years ago, the bothering which came to you eight years ago and the bothering which is happening in you now: they are not connected. Why are you again connecting and seeing all of them and thinking that I am continuously bothered about money or I am continuously bothered about developing myself or I am continuously bothered about my happiness!

(01:00)

See, all these things, just more and more and more words. Even your problems are not related to the deeper level. Even they are very superficial. Just with words you are struggling. The whole thing is nothing but words. It’s like a... your whole innerspace is filled with words and you are struggling for air. You are struggling even to breathe, because your whole innerspace is filled with words and constantly you are binding. Every inch of your being is tied with a chain. If there is a small gap, you purchase one more chain and tie it and you don’t feel comfortable even with a small gap and you say, “No, no, no. Let me have one more chain. Please come, let me have one more chain” and you tie it. Only when you are completely tight, you can’t move this side or that side or you can’t even breathe, then you feel comfortable. ‘Yes, now I have enough problem. Let me go to some Enlightened Master’ and you come to Me to increase My business. What can I do? I always encourage people to get married so that I will have My business. See, unless you have constant problem, you won’t come to Me. I lose My business. So…

(02:24)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s question) Can Enlightenment solve some of the existing unsolved problems in science and mathematics? For example, nobody knows if there are infinitely many perfect numbers.

(02:42)

It is a nice but very serious question. Who is Satya? Very serious question. You see, first Sutra of the Ishavasya Upanishad answers this question. If you have heard Ishavasya Upanishad, you will understand, the first mantra: Om poornamadah poornamidam Poornat poornamudachyate Poornasya poornamadaya Poornameva vasishyate

(03:15)

When the whole is taken away from the whole, the whole remains as the whole. The first mantra of the first Upanishad, the shanti mantra of the first Upanishad gives answer to this question. I think I will answer this question in a detailed way. Now I will give just the gist and you can remind Me. I will give you a complete answer. See, three thing: Logically, according to Maths, according to the normal mathematics, 2+2 is 4. A+B is C. The C cannot be more than A+B if the A+B=C. The C cannot be more than A+B. This is the normal mathematics. When it comes to art, when it comes to the level of art, you see, in the intellectual level, A+B=C. The A separately, B separately if you add, nothing less than C or nothing more than C can come. This is the logic-intellectual.

(04:21)

When you come to the next level, emotion level of the art, all the things which is used in a painting-a canvas or the colour, all these things put together cannot equate the painting. There is something more in that painting. Can you say that this paint and this canvas and these much of hours from that man is equal to that painting? You can’t! Even if you put that hours-eight hours from that particular artist, same artist if he puts the eight hours in a different time, the painting will be different. You can’t say. You can’t create an equation when it comes to art. Over! You can’t put all the words used by Ravindranath Tagore is equal to Gitanjali. There are so many idiots who are using the same words. They are not able to produce Gitanjali. It means what? There is something more than logic exists in the level of art, in the level of art.

(05:27)

And there is a third logic equivalent to being, in the logic of being. In that logic...the first logic, 2+2 is 4. The second logic, 2+2 is 4 + something. When the canvas is separate, it is just canvas. When the paint is separate, it is just paint. When you add these two, you can’t equate it to paint. You can’t equate it to painting. Painting is canvas plus paint plus something. It means what? 2+2 is 4 plus something. This is logic of art, logic of emotion. There is a third logic-spiritual logic, the logic of being. In that, 2+2 is infinity. There is no 2 plus something. 2+2 is infinity. When you add energy into energy, you can’t say, energy is 2 energy. You can’t. There is something far more and you can...one more thing, if you add Master and disciple, two enlightened beings are appearing. How can it be? One Enlightened Being-Master, plus a disciple, equivalent two enlightened beings. How can it be? So, infinity is expressing itself in the same way of infinity. You can’t say that same logic applies.

(06:54)

I will give you how the third logic, the logic of the energy or the spiritual logic is described clearly in this mantra: Poornamadah poornamidam Poornat poornamudachyate Poornasya poornamadaya Poornameva vasishyate

(07:09)

When the whole is removed from the whole, the whole remains as the whole. Beautifully the...especially Shankara comments, Shankara’s logic, so sharp when He comments on that sutra and after reading that sutra you don’t need anything else, any logic, any science, any mathematics. You can shake if you know this single sutra. You can shake all mathematicians. You can shake the whole logic and He gives beautiful commentary. It takes long time if I have to repeat the whole commentary and explain. Just understand this one concept. This art itself is enough to break the logic. Now 2+2 is something 4 plus something. You can’t equate it. What is that? Your emotion or your being. You can name whatever it is.

(08:01)

Same way you can equate the third logic also. The third logic, something more than what you can imagine happens. Something more than what you can imagine happens. You can’t equate. Your logic stops working at particular level. The big problem is, in the West they never look beyond the logic. Science is the most superstitious thing on the planet earth. They have too narrow views. The fellows are fanatical. You see, the other day one doctor came and he was discussing with Me and he was talking as if the spirituality is having lot of superstitions. I told him, “Let you be very clear. Science is having lot more superstitious things than spirituality. At least the Rishis don’t have vested interest. If you are convinced about what I am saying, I have nothing to gain. I already got your money. I have nothing to gain. Whether you realise or not, it is no way directly related to Me.”

(09:05)

Even if you don’t attend My program, whatever I am speaking is there in My website. You can completely download. All our books, all My meditation techniques are available in website including the ‘Meditation is for you’ book. Even if you don’t come here, directly you can download. I have nothing to gain by convincing you. Not only Me, all the Rishis. They have nothing to gain by convincing you. They have no vested interest. They are not associated with vysyas, people who are doing business but today’s science is directly associated with vysyas who are doing business. They have to do, they have to fulfill the vested interest of vysyas and kshatriyas.

(09:48)

In India, the brahmanas, the intellectual energy is never under the control of politicians and business people. They are independent energy. The R and D is not under the control of the social vested interest or the political system but in the other fields, other society, the R and D, the intellectual department is under the influence, under the control, they have to dance to the tunes of vested interests of society. That is why I say science is more superstitious than spirituality. There are lot more. If you look into the science you will understand. It is lot more superstitious because it has to serve the vested interest of the people who are funding, who are funding.

(10:39)

In India, knowledge is free. We have liberated. Even today, anybody wants to study Vedanta or the Indian philosophy, you are given free food, stay and education in thousands of monasteries. Only in five cities of India, in Himalayas, hundred thousand ashrams are there where spiritual knowledge is given free of cost. Spiritual knowledge is given free of cost. This R and D is constantly going on independent of vysyas and kshatriyas means politicians and business people. Politicians and business people are no way able to influence. They can’t influence this R and D of spirituality. It is independent but with science, they are the people who dictate.

(11:30)

Be very clear, science has got vested interest to convince people, to convince the people who are funding them. Otherwise, how the research will happen? Who will fund the research? Who will fund the development? Let you be very clear, science is much more superstitious than spirituality. There are infinitely many perfect numbers. So...and I will try to give you that Shankara’s commentary and if I find time, even tomorrow, let us finish the subject, let us finish the meditation. If I find time, I will repeat the commentary and give you the translation. How step by step He takes you to the logic. The infinity is there. Anything taken out of the infinity doesn't disturb the infinity. The whole remains as whole.

(12:25)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s question): I feel good when I hear You to talk and could relate to my lifestyle but once I leave you and go home, my life will ask me, “What did Swamiji spoke about?” My wife will ask me, “What did Swamiji spoke about?” I can’t remember anything. Is this mean I am not ready for Your teachings?”

(12:43)

Be very clear. You are ready for My teachings. If you are not able to remember the words, be very clear, you digested the essence. People who are trying to remember the words, people who are taking notes, be very clear, they are only preparing to repeat, not to digest. You are in a right space. Nothing wrong. You don’t have to bother to repeat. Just digest and enrich yourself. That’s enough. There is no need to remember and give discourse to your wife especially...no really, if you say all these things, your wife will never accept. She will never come to Me. Let you be very clear. I have this big problem. If the wife comes and gets attached with Me, husband will never come to Me. Actually husbands secretly they go to My website and see everything. They know that Swamiji is right. No problem about it but wife can’t be right. That is too much. Wife coming and telling me, me going to that Swami is too much. I can’t do that. That is too much. Swamiji may be right but not you.

(13:59)

So if you really want to help your husband, never speak about Me to him. Just tell him. Let him go and see the website. Let him read the books. Just give him some books. Never give your interpretation because he will not be in mood to listen. Same way, if you are here, your wife is not here, never try to inspire her. Just tell her to see the website or give books. Never try to give your interpretation and you will make her only move away from Me by your interpretations, by your interpretations. Because she knows clearly that you are wrong and he knows clearly you are...whatever you do is wrong. So do not try to help each other at least in My case.

(14:48)

So, I have seen this common problem. These are all FAQs actually. Somebody asked Me, “Swamiji, how to make your wife spiritual? How to make her meditate? How to make her as a spiritual being?” I told him, “If I know the secret, why do you think I have become Swami?” If I know the secret you think I would have become Swami?” Nothing can be done about it. You can’t do anything about it. These are honest truth I am telling you. You can’t do anything about it. Unless they decide, nothing can be done and if at all I know the mantra, I would have made big ashram long before.

(15:39)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s question): Swamiji, what is God? What happens during Enlightenment?

(15:42)

O God! Who is the person who put this question? Oh! Whatever I say will be a lie. Let Me be very clear. Whatever I say about God will be a lie because I will be able to give only a partial. It is too big to be discussed. You can’t discuss. It is too big word and loaded with meaning. Nothing can be done about it. I can tell only one thing. Be unclutched. You will experience God. Nothing else can be done. When you experience and come out, you will also have the same trouble and you will tell others that you are not able to explain. Actually, before Enlightenment, when I read all these great books, I used to think that these fellows are playing a game. The main product which they are selling, they don’t have definition for that. The main product which they are selling is God or Enlightenment. None of these fellows are able to give explanation. They are selling something which they can’t even define. I thought what is happening? What kind of business?

(16:55)

But after I entered into the business I also understood. Nothing can be done about it and you can’t...you are in the same problem. I can do one thing. I can put you in the same problem. I can put you in the same space where you will have same problem. Otherwise you can’t explain and there is a ...whatever I say, it will be only half truth. Half truth is much worse than a lie. At least with lie, you are clear you are hearing a lie. With half truth, you do not know which side is truth and which side is lie and you will be always bothered about the other half and better let you not have any answer. You will be saved. What happens during Enlightenment, again it is difficult to explain. Let you be unclutched and experience by yourself.

(17:47)

See, all these questions you ask because you don’t have confidence that you can be unclutched. You don’t have confidence. You think, ‘No, no. What He talks is right but I can’t experience all those things. Better let me at least have little knowledge and go back to the house.’ Please be very clear. You can be unclutched. Constantly your belief that you can’t be unclutched is also one more shaft. It is one more shaft. Ten years ago you tried. You have failed. Nine years ago, you have tried. You failed. The moment I say ten years, doctor amma is laughing. Nine years ago you tried. You failed. Eight year ago you tried. You failed. Why are you connecting all your failures and creating a shaft?

(18:36)

That failure which happened ten years ago, the failure which happened nine years ago, the failure which happened eight years ago are independent, individual incidents. Do not connect them. The moment you connect them and create a shaft, you are very clear you will be failure this time also. Why do you decide? Why do you create a shaft and try to live? Why are you connecting it? Why are you connecting again?

Transcript:

(00:15)

Q: This morning You spoke a little bit about Patanjali and said to use pain to go to the next level. I am asking for Your help. How can one use pain to go to the next level?

(00:28)

Swamiji: It’s a nice question. Morning itself I answered. Just see without labeling that as a pain just look into that space, what is happening. I have spoken about this in the same Pain to Bliss meditation. When the pain disappears even after that just try to continuously penetrate that same zone. Let you be aware of that zone. Then suddenly you will see, you are experiencing the boundaryless energy. You see, you have your identity. You have an identity about yourself. If that identity is smaller than the physical body, you start feeling that pain. If the identity is equivalent to that physical body, you will have a comfortable relaxed feeling. If that identity explodes and expands bigger than the physical body you will feel ecstasy. When you close your eyes and remember your name you will have an image about yourself. You will have your form. That’s what I call your identity. If that identity is smaller than the physical body, you will have pains and feelings of suffocation. You will feel suffocated. In those areas you will feel suffocated. If the identity is equivalent size of your physical body, you will be comfortable with the body. If the identity expands than your physical body you will have bliss. Now, put your awareness wherever you have pain and remember you are unclutched. Suddenly you will see that identity expands. Expansion of identity is what I mean boundary less experience. You will enter into the different space of being unclutched. When you go into it you understand the truth of what I am saying. One more problem, unless you go into all these things, whatever I am saying is only words. They will be words and words. When you go into it you will understand the truth behind all these words.

(02:43)

Q: I want to be unclutched but my wife wants to be clutched. How can You help me? 😊

(02:59)

Swamiji: 😊 Now you have to choose between Swami and wife…. What to do? See one thing, here you have given a small bracket: “Want to enjoy good things in life”. You think being unclutched means not enjoying good things in the life? No. That is where you are missing. Do not try to create a shaft or understanding that unclutching means something. Again you are creating one more shaft. Again you are creating one more Shaft. The spiritual teaching means somehow the idea has entered into you; it is anti-life. Without even practicing you are clear it is anti-life. It is not. When you start living in that unclutched way, you will understand every moment your life is only enriched. You are not giving up anything. I tell you, “Be unclutched.” You will see you are fulfilling not only your wife’s imaginations, you are just overflowing much more than that. One more thing, only when you are unclutched you will have so much of space you will be able to accommodate all her fantasies. You will be able to accommodate her being. You will have tremendous compassion for her. You will not feel suffocated by her. The only way to escape from wife is, be unclutched. The one and only way to escape from the wife.

(04:36)

Because when you are unclutched you will have so much space in you. You will not feel suffocated by people. You will not feel suffocated by the expectations of somebody. You will have such a big space, not only you will be able to fulfill, you will have tremendous compassion. You know where they are suffering. See when you know, somebody is suffering at some point. You will not have violence. Only when you don’t understand where he is suffering… he or she is suffering you will have violence. Intelligence and compassion is one and the same. When you have intelligence where that person is suffering you won’t have violence. You will be able to accommodate that person in your inner space. You will have a different quality of your life I tell you. Only when you relax. Only when you unclutch yourself you will understand, when you are unclutched you will not get irritated. You will not be moved. That person may get irritated. You will not get irritated. Your very energy will be totally different.

(05:45)

Q: If the shaft is created by our mind or identity. What is the purpose of mind or identity?

(05:51)

Swamiji: Only you have to know the purpose. How will I know? Only you will know the purpose of the mind or identity. What… What you think you want to achieve in the world, that is the purpose. If you want to become a doctor? Doctor. You want to become a lawyer? Lawyer. You want to do some… that is the purpose of your identity. But the problem is it is you who is creating.

(06:23)

Q: Swamiji my pranams to you. I am confused when You say not to create shaft of joy. And when You say… Bless us to lead a life of nithya ananda or bliss eternally.

(06:36)

Swamiji: Be very clear, when you don’t create a shaft of joy only you will have ananda. Joy is a part time ananda. If you create shaft out of ananda, you will create joy. If you relax from the shaft of ananda you will be in Bliss. Please understand. Joy and Ananda are not one and the same. They are opposite to each other. If you try to create shaft out of ananda, you will try to possess that and make it as joy. If you relax from shaft of joy and don’t bother about it. Don’t want to prolong. Suddenly you will be in the space of Bliss. You will be in the space of Bliss. Understand between.. difference between Ananda and joy.

(07:25)

Q: Another doubt, how do I not confuse the state of doing nothing with the sense of lack of responsibility or defeat… defeatist…. defeatist attitude?

(07:43)

Swamiji: See, the idea, the defeatist attitude, lack of responsibility and all now only your mind is picking up just to defend yourself. Even if it is lack of responsibility and defeatist let you be unclutched for few days. You will understand. If you have unclutched you will not have that tamas in you. You will not have tamas in you. Mentally you will be silent but physically you will be active and alive. When you are in the space of lack of responsibility or defeatist, mentally you will be very active, you will not be silent. Physically you will be tired. When you are unclutched, physically you will be active and alive, mentally you will be silent. There is a big difference between tamas and sattva. In both space you are silent but totally different. When you enter into the… when you relax and try to be unclutched you will understand. You see, whenever you remember this unclutched… you are unclutched. That itself will give you such a inner healing, such big relief that you don’t have to do anything. Actually there is nothing to be done and there is nothing can be done. You can try, try, try, try. Nothing can be done. When you accept, when you come to that understanding, suddenly you feel the inner healing happening in you. You are becoming a different being. Different person. Only then you will understand how to be alive, active, without entering into the defeatist attitude. With the understanding you will never be defeatist. These are all few words which your mind creates to protect yourself from this truth. Even if it is defeatist it's okay. Let you be unclutched. Then you will understand the truth of these words.

(09:45)

Q: In one of Your talks You mentioned TPS. That’s lowering the Thoughts Per Second. One of the ways to break the shaft. So, meditation is the main way to achieve Dhyana. Who is the person? Who put this question? Ha.

(10:00)

Swamiji: Be very clear, now you are not connecting Me with Buddha or Krishna. You are connecting Me with your identity which you have about Me in the past. You heard the teachings, have you become enlightened? No. Now you are connecting that with this so that you can dump the both in the same dustbin. Do not create. Now come to this moment. Either get help from these words or at least understand you are not being helped. Let us be very clear. Either you are helped or not helped. Let us not connect with this… let us not connect this with teachings. This words with some of My past teachings and put the both in same file and put it in one corner of your mind. So, that you can archive Me.

(11:01)

Outsourcing joke. An American outsourced his job to an Indian IT by paying 30% of his salary and instructed his outsourced employee to do new, new mistakes so he can preserve his job. Who is this person? Yes. Anyhow… huh? New, new mistakes… so that he can preserve his job.

(11:33)

Q: When a person feels that they are not their body and can thank their body for letting them use it. What is this? When you thank your body for transporting you?

(11:44)

Swamiji: Really you will feel grateful to the body. And you will feel completely comfortable with your body. Who wrote this question? This question? First intelligent question. In this whole series first intelligent question. I think you really understood. You have done the first session. When you… if you really do the first session you will come to this experience. You will feel completely comfortable and grateful to the body. If you have not felt the gratitude towards the body you’ve not done the first session. Be very clear. Still you carry the irritation in you. When you feel so blissful in the body, inside the body, you feel so happy, so homely with this whole system. You won’t feel lonely at all in your life. Constantly you will be feeling homely. You won't feel lonely. Lonely… feeling of loneliness or the feeling of need for other person will have… you will have the feeling for the need… you will feel the need for the other person only when you are not comfortable with your body. If you are completely comfortable with your body. You will never feel the need for the other person. Even if you have to share yourself with the other person you will be overflowing. You will not be demanding. You will not be begging. You will be just over flowing. If you are feeling the need for the other person be very clear you are not comfortable with your body, you are not ease with your body.

(13:26)

Q: If we could attain enlightenment through… I’m not able to… understand… read. Through Krishna or Jesus etc why do we need a living Master? Thank you. Who is the person who put the question?

(13:45)

Swamiji: If you can achieve enlightenment through Krishna or Jesus you don’t need living Master? The big problem, even with a living Master you are not able to achieve… What are you going to do with the Masters who don’t have the body? People come and ask Me, “Swamiji can You teach me how to connect with ascending Masters?” or “How to talk to the great Master and get their teachings?” I tell them, “Directly I am speaking in the language which you understand. That itself is not helping you. How are you going to be helped with somebody who is not going to speak in the same language which you are able to understand”? So, be very clear, if you can achieve enlightenment with Krishna or Mahavir or Jesus you don’t need enlightened, living Master. But, usually this never happens.

(14:36)

Q: How would you approach Christian person to accept meditation? Swamiji: I don’t approach. Anybody accepts meditation; it is up to them.

(14:47)

Q: It is telling my family about my practicing meditation. How do I tell them without hurting their feelings?

(14:53)

Swamiji: Only you have to decide. I don’t know. I have not yet created any mechanism for it. Maybe… you can slowly slowly show the transformation which you are having in your life. Maybe by seeing the transformation which you are having, which you are expressing in your life they will be inspired. The only way is to show in your life to inspire them. That is the only way.

(15:24)

Q: If meditation is not the channel to spiritual enlightenment then why should we meditate? What exactly are we supposed to do?

(15:30)

Swamiji: Meditation is channel for enlightenment. I don’t say meditation is not the channel. But when I say the word meditation, being unclutched, not getting caught with one more shaft. If the meditation creates one more shaft be very clear, you will not be getting enlightenment.

(15:52)

Q: If you are not the bodies, how do we feel the pain of the body and fear of losing the body? And if karma theory is not right how do we transmigrate?

(16:02)

Swamiji: Two things, I don’t say you are not the body. You are not the body should become experience in you. Not the theory given to you. Second thing, whether karma theory is not right… if the karma theory is not right… again, I don’t say karma theory is not right. It is not complete. It can’t answer all the logical questions. It can’t stand the sharp logic. It can stand to do business but not to understand for yourself. People come and ask Me... actually, a small incident really happened. One boy was brought to Me by the mother. And the mother is telling Me, “Swamiji, please tell him. He is not listening to my words. Please tell him to obey me.” I said, “How can I tell? I Myself never obeyed My mother. I ran away from the house. My mother tried her best but I ran away from the house. I Myself never obeyed.” How can I say, “Obey your mother”? But you know, women are women. She was very adamant. “No, no You have to insist. You have to tell. Please tell him. He has to listen. He has to obey me.” Then I called him, “See, why don’t you obey your mother? See I Am obeying, I Myself… I am obeying her. Why don’t you also obey her? And listen to whatever she says”? This guy asked Me, straight away, “Swamiji, she herself is not happy. If I follow her I will also become like her only. Why are You asking me to obey her? Why are You asking me to follow her?” I was shocked. Somehow I convinced him but I am not convinced.

(17:46)

Same way, I can use karma theory to convince somebody. But I am not convinced. Karma theory is a beautiful way to give healing. See at some point human beings need some consolation, some healing, some effect. For that beautiful. For society karma theory is really beautiful. It can give a healing effect. It can give a big comfort feeling. But not for the seekers. Not for the Seekers. The beautiful word in Kathopanishad, it’s like walking on the razor’s edge. Shourasyadhara Vishidaaniketa. It is not for the people who are… seekers of truth. At Least not for the people who have come up to the level of Dhyana Spurana. For a society it is a good idea. You can see, there is an interview in the India Post. I accepted the Karma theory and spoke about that. In India Post. For public it is good. It gives you inner healing effect and you don’t have to suffer too much, torture yourself too much. And lot of psychiatric problems will be avoided. You will be more balanced and less depressed.

(19:04)

For all those things karma theory is okay. But ultimately when you start seeing the truth that doesn’t hold good. With the sharpest logic when you penetrate. That doesn’t hold good. That’s what I mean Swamiji.. When I say karma theory. So, the only way to transmigrate is just unclutch. Unclutch, and all the concept of pain, pleasure… I am saying flood everything with truth. Let everything be flooded away. Let you be completely flooded by the truth. The concept of joy and bliss if it exist only then the karma theory holds good. Because karma is all about bringing more joy and less pain. But I am saying even that idea is a lie. You are constantly connecting and creating. So when even that idea is a lie, you will not be driven towards joy or you will not be driven away from pain. Those concepts will start losing meaning for you. You will start living in a different space. So…

(20:15)

Q: Did not Krishna and Buddha advocate the theory of karma?

(20:18)

Swamiji: They might be speak… giving interview to India Post 😊. You understand. They would have been giving interview to that time India Post! So that is the reason they would have advocated. So, one more thing when I speak to the public the truth has to be told in a different way. But when I speak to the seekers, especially when I wanted to say the ultimate truth, it has to be explained in a clear way. It’s just the levels of understanding. I am not against the first level. But when I have to say the ultimate truth, I have to completely pull down the whole structure. Only then you will be awakened, to hear the truth. Then the truth can be given to you. If it is so, so, so, so, so, so….

(0:15)

Swamiji reads a letter: Can laziness be root cause of bringing six doshas in life? Kama, krodha and… O God! See, laziness is one more shaft. The lazy feeling which you felt nine years ago, the lazy feeling which you felt eight years ago, the lazy feeling which you felt yesterday: they are complete independent happenings. Why do you want to connect and decide you are lazy or you are not lazy? Both ideas are lies. Then you will have one more idea, ‘I have kama, I have krodha or I don’t have kama, I don’t have krodha,’ all these things again and again, creating more and more shafts, more and more connections. These two days I will see that you experience that shaftless zone. So I am not going to let your attention move to anything else. Again and again and again, see, I can’t put a straight tape recorder, be unclutched, be unclutched and be unclutched. Instead of putting a tape recorder, I am going to do that work. Let you be very clear, by your very nature, you are unconnected, illogical, independent, unclutched thoughts.

(01:46)

Swamiji reads a letter: Swamiji, is enlightenment a neuro-biological phenomena? If yes, is there any re-arrangement of physical structure of the body? O God! Nice question! Who is the questioner? Oh! It’s a very personal question. I can say, if you can relate and understand, understand. Otherwise, forget about it. It is neuro-biological phenomena. Actually, biologically also a big change happens, transformation happens. So many thing happened in Me but I don’t think it is compulsory for every enlightened being. Sometime it happens, sometime it doesn't happen. So it is not a compulsory but in Me, lot has happened. The whole body has become very sensitive. Now it has become little but even then, not like a normal human beings. Even now, if you touch the feet, you will feel as if the bone is covered with butter, bone is covered with butter.

(02:58)

When you come for Energy Darshan, you can touch and feel but now, everybody will start pressing. (laughs) Alright, when you come for Energy Darshan, you can feel it and still now, it is the form...like a bone is covered with butter and one year ago, even if you put your thumb, you can see the impression. It used to be so soft. Now it has become little hard because I started walking without chappal, just to make it little hard, I started walking without chappal inside the ashram. Now it has become little hard. Even then it is not like a normal human beings. Lot happened in the body. Nine months I was not able to speak. From January to November, I was completely dumb. Sometimes now also. That is different. I was not able to speak. The words won’t come fluently and if I move the right hand, left hand will not move. The movements are not coordinated. The coordination doesn’t happen.

(04:03)

If I try to express few words, then I won’t be able to move any part of My body. I have to arrest all the other movements and try to use few words. If I start moving the body, then I have to completely stop all other movements. Only some one movement will happen. Like this, something has happened in Me also but I don’t know exactly what all has happened. Maybe I am thinking of doing little research what all has happened and this doctor, the St. Louis doctor who is experimenting, doing experiment, he was saying, just like that lamas, six times more energy was getting produced. That metabolism rate was very high. He was saying few things but I don’t know completely. As far as My understanding goes, it is neuro-biological phenomena. Some neuro-biological effect also happens when you become enlightened. There are few more things happened in Me.

(05:10)

Swamiji reads a letter: Is my being the very nature of it random thoughts, the gap between thoughts or inner space? By your very nature, constantly you renounce. You don’t even have to renounce. You don’t have to struggle to renounce or to get enlightened. Your inner space cannot be corrupted. Even if you try your best, you can’t hold on to one thought. Try your best to hold on to even lust. You can’t. Let Me challenge. You see, you may have big problem with anger or lust or fear or greed. Try to hold on to the fear. Just if you have the thought of having a cup of coffee, your death fear has disappeared. What happened to a death fear? Your death fear can be replaced just by the thought of a cup of coffee. The moment you started thinking to have a cup of coffee means the death fear has disappeared!

(06:10)

Unless that moves and gives place, the cup of coffee thought cannot happen; means what? Your death fear and the desire to have a cup of coffee is equal. This can replace that means, its value is that much only. It has got only that much value but mentally you create a chain, ‘No, no, no. Again and again I am having death fear.’ Again and again you have the thought of having coffee also but you don’t give importance to it. You don’t pluck the...that thoughts and create a shaft. Nine years ago, your thought to have a cup of coffee, ten years ago your thought to have a cup of coffee, eight years ago your thought to have a cup of coffee, you don’t connect all these things and create, ‘Oh! Having a cup of coffee is a big problem in me.’ You are not doing that but the fears which happened many time, you pluck those flowers and create a garland and start creating suffering. It is you who choose and create a shaft. All your problems are chosen thoughts. All your problems are chosen thoughts believing that they are connected.

(07:26)

You can see what you have written. Just see, random of, random thoughts. So much is there in front of you. Some one million thoughts are there. You just picked up ten thoughts and you say these ten thoughts represent the one million thought. How can it be? In your inner space, no thought holds value. No thought holds any value. People who try to renounce fear, who wants to get rid of fear, understand, your fear has no value except your fear about that fear. Your fear has no value except that your fear about that fear. Thought to have a cup of coffee can replace your fear means what is your fear? Tell Me. It is not even worthy of cup of coffee. It is not worthy of just cup of coffee! Cup of coffee can replace the thought of fear and you think, ‘No, no, no. I can’t replace it. I am trying so much, my best to get rid of my phobia, Swamiji. I am trying to, trying my best to get rid of my problems.’ Cup of, glass of water can replace it. Done.

(08:47)

Understand, by your very nature, your inner space renounces. Your inner space rejuvenates. Your inner space doesn’t hold thoughts. By your very nature, your inner space is pure. Only when you start believing these are my problems, you connect all those problems which happened many time. You see, that also happens in a very random way. Suddenly something rises, something falls; something rises and something falls. But when it rises, you pick up, ‘No, no, no. Don’t leave. Come, come, come’ and you connect all those thoughts and create an idea you have fear. All your phobias can be addressed with this single truth.

(09:36)

People come to Me with some allergy or some fear. If they are allergic to green chilly, I tell them first to bring that green chilly. I will just tell them, “Now eat in front of Me.” Please be very clear. At least one thousand allergies I have healed in last three years. I am truth, I am honest. At least one thousand allergies I have healed. Nothing, give them the courage to be unclutched. Look into that moment. In a single session, at least I have healed one thousand allergies just recently in Hyderabad. One guy, twenty five years of daal allergy. Even if he eats one spoon of daal, his whole body will start swelling. (listens to a devotee) Bring the daal. Tomorrow I will show you. No, it is nothing. all your allergy is simply your connecting, your connection, your connection.

(10:39)

I told him to eat the daal. I sat next to him and just told him, “I will take care. I will heal you. Don’t bother.” He was made to eat. It simply disappeared. Twenty five years of allergy. All your allergy, all your phobias are nothing but pure connection, pure connection. The one thing is, in India you can do all these things courageously. In this country, very difficult because the social system. Anyhow, with our guys we can do, no problem. Nothing will happen. Don’t bother. When I read this question, I remember a small statement. Swamiji, your hand writing? No, no, no. Your hand writing I am able to read. I know your hand writing by now. Your hand writing? (laughs) Alright. When I read this, I remember a small story.

(11:28)

There was advertisement in the newspaper. We want a manager who knows how to read and write French. One guy applied. He said, “I can write but can’t read.” Manager was shocked and he asked that guy, “Please come for interview.” When he came, he said, “Please write.” He started writing dagadagadagadaga. Manager said, “Please now read. I am not able to read what you have written.” The guy said, “I told you I can only write. I can’t read. I can only write; I can’t read.”... So I think this is the same thing.

(12:07)

One guy was searching all over his house, “Where is my prescription? Where is my prescription?” Wife said, “Prescription?” “No, that yellow slip, yellow slip.” Today morning I went and did my shopping with that slip. Now your daughter is playing piano with that slip.” Same prescription slip somebody uses to go for shopping. The other person uses for playing piano. You have not understood. Alright. You missed the story. That same prescription, prescription from the doctor, it is used as music notes for piano and medicine. Doctor is not laughing because it is related to her business.(laughs)

(12:55)

Anyhow, let Me answer this question. You see, you don’t have to remember all the statements which I am uttering. You have to remember the truth behind the statement. This moment understand, you are unclutched and solve all your problems this moment with that truth! See, when you solve all your problems with this moment, when you feel that freedom and inner healing, this very healing has got so much of power, again and again you will be made to remember the truth. Unless the truth gives you the result, freedom this moment, it is not worth remembering. If it helps you in this moment, you will not be able to forget it. You will not be able to forget it. If it is not helping you this moment, please do not carry in your head. It is unnecessary luggage, garbage. (13:55) So that is the reason I tell you, let you have the effect this moment. Let you understand either you must be able to accept that you are unclutched or struggle with that that you are not able to accept. It is okay. Let you be, let you start working this moment. If you carry in your notebook, your mind will say, ‘No, no, no, when I go back, I can read and try to practice.’ You will never, never do. I have always seen people taking notes and they will put it in their almirah, cupboard. After five years when they move their house or clean their house, when you are packing, your son will bring that notes and ask you, “Baba, what to do...dada, what to do with these notes?” “O, that Bengaluru Swami came na,” You will dust that and “O, that time I have taken. Put it in dustbin. Put it in dustbin.” So all notes go to dustbin only. That is the reason. Why do you spend so much of time to put it in the dustbin? Then better put the empty paper in the dustbin. Let you carry inside your being as an understanding.

(15:08)

Swamiji reads a question: We see eight-nine year old kids getting diseases like cancer. No kid develops shafts at such an early age. No, never think. That is why I was telling you. I can’t even say you are developing a shaft when the time you start thinking. Sometime you bring shaft. You bring shaft. Your body itself is made out of memories. Memory means you create shafts and bring shafts. So be very clear, you can’t say when you start creating the shaft, when you start creating the shaft. All the questions are over? No more questions? That is nice. Everybody has understood whatever I am saying? Alright, now at least share your understandings. Let Me see how deep it has gone. Yes…

(16:01)

Devotee: I just want to get another definition of unclutch. In other words, a thought comes,... bubbles up and watch it go. Let them go. Swamiji: Even if you try to hold, he will not stay. He won’t be able to stay. He will be just disappearing and let him disappear, relax. Over! That’s all. At some point, some thoughts will rise and make your body follow it. You will not even have the problem. You don’t even have to think whether you have to follow or you have to stop. Simply you will be following. Then let it happen but the moment you come as much as you can, try to be unclutched. Beyond your power simply your body will be lifted and moved by some thoughts. Let it happen. You will not have irritation when you follow your thoughts if you are unclutched.

(17:04)

Usually, as on now, whether you follow your thought or don’t follow your thought, you will have irritation. If you follow, you will have some irritation. If you don’t, you will again have irritation. If you are unclutched, that irritation will disappear. Whatever doesn’t need to follow, you won’t follow like your job and basic life thing and all those things, whatever you feel as important, simply your body will follow. You will not be even feel irritated. You will not be feeling the suffocating feeling. If you completely see its rising and falling and dropping and things happening.

(17:43)

Swamiji reads a question: Is there any value in namasmarana of God? O God! I think morning itself I answered this question. I do not want to disrespect all these traditions. See, they all help you to come up to certain level but if you ask from the level in which I am talking about the unclutching, it is not going to help you. Namasmarana is not going to help you. Let you be very clear. Remember that you are unclutched. That will help you. Not any other. See, namasmarana what are you trying to do? You are trying to create a same shaft which you can’t. Try your best to create the shaft. Try your best. Anybody who says I am successful? Twenty four hours I am able to do the Namasmarana? Anybody? You can’t.

(18:41)

By your very nature, you will be renouncing. See, whether it is thought of Rama or thought of kama, you will be constantly renouncing but you think, ‘No, no, no. I have to hold on to Rama. I have to renounce kama.’ Neither holding on will be possible nor renouncing will be possible. Both will be rising and falling. It is you who give the label, value, ‘Oh, Rama’s thoughts are really good. I have to hold on.’ You try to create the shaft and elongate that shaft. Kama’s thoughts are bad. I have to break. I have to escape from it.’ You try to break it but you can neither elongate nor break when you understand nothing can be done about the shaft, you are liberated from the shaft. You can have only one freedom-to liberate yourself from the shaft.

(19:35)

Either you can completely throw away the luggage, your garbage or have all of them in your head and play the game. You can’t have the arranged garbage. Only namasmarana I will have and put little scent, put little incense stick and do little camphor and arati, no. You can try your best. You can try your best. I tried My best. I tried per day I used to do 20,000 japa. I had a long mantra. I used to repeat 20,000 I will repeat in one sitting. I will sit for one sitting. In one sitting, I will do 20,000 means this side, two mala.(shows His left hand) See, this side mala is 108 (shows His right hand) and one bead I will move (shows His left hand) Then by the time I finish this 108, 108x108 10,000. (shows His left hand) This side two mala, I will finish with left hand. So much of nama japa I did. Finally I understood it is not going to lead you anywhere. So let you be very clear, it is not going to help.

(0:15)

Now it is time to work on prana sarira. Actually first when you enter into this being unclutched, your mind will try it’s, all it’s games and you will feel that there is nothing. All kinds of empty feelings. Some people will not feel anything because they slept. Always the initial level I make people catharsis. That is why, once they do little catharsis, they don’t sleep, they don’t fall asleep but here it is such a deep technique, even catharsis can disturb you unclutching. In the next level we will go deep. It’s okay. At least the next meditations, don’t miss. If you are unclutched even in the sleep it’s okay. It is really beautiful. Nothing wrong but you are not...you have not mastered that much that you are able to unclutch yourself in the sleep. In waking state itself you are not able to unclutch means?

(01:42)

Alright, now let’s work on the pranic layer means, the next level. Next level, how you connect yourself all the movements. See, prana is related to your movements, your desire. Whatever gives you energy to move, inspiration to move, that is directly connected to prana. It is because of prana you move. It is because of prana your body is still alive. It is like a fuel. It is like a fuel. Sometimes desires give you the energy to move. Sometimes fear give you the energy to move. All these things are prana. Now how you clutch yourself with these things and create suffering, how you connect yourself with these things and create suffering. If you look deeply, you can’t segregate actually. The physical, the annamaya, pranamaya, manomaya you can’t separate. There is no clear separation.

(02:57)

For the sake of our understanding, see, throughout these two days, I am trying to take you deeper and deeper into your being, trying to give you this same truth without you feeling bored. Actually these whole two days is a single session of working, understanding that you are unclutched and allowing that truth to sync in your being but your mind is so cunning, you will start creating one more shaft called boredom. ‘Oh! It is boring.’ The moment you create that shaft boredom, nothing can be done. You will not allow this truth to work on you. That’s why I am cooking in a different way the same thing and I am offering to you.

(03:47)

Now we will work on the desires. How we connect and see and even when we don’t feel the same pleasure, same joy from that object, we force ourselves either to feel or believe, to believe to feel that same joy. Continuously how we bind ourselves with the concept of joy, with the concept of bliss, with something or other. Actually when you are exactly having the experience, if you look into that, it will not be joy as you think. After having the experience, you may remember and connect that as a joy. That is why you always enjoy the photograph, not the reality. Why do you think constantly you are busy with photographing? After going back to your house, you will sit and enjoy the photograph. ‘Oh! I went to South Africa. It was such a joy’ but when you are in that place, it was not joy. If you are enjoying, you won’t bother about photography.

(05:03)

Constantly you make things as a memory and enjoy the memory, not the reality itself, not when it is happening. When it is happening, it is so dull, it is so boring but you don’t want to think or understand the truth that it is dull or boring. Somehow you just wanted to pour some juice on it and visualize it is juicy. Every moment you think, you see in your life, you always make everything as sweet memory and enjoy the memory, not when it happens. When you are really getting married or when you are really in some program, you will not be enjoying that but afterwards you will be sitting with the album and enjoying it. Exactly when it was happening, you must be completely in tension or stress. What is happening with this, what is happening with that. Constantly you trying to bring the memories back and enjoying itself is nothing but you are enjoying only the connected thoughts, not the thing itself when it is happening.

(06:15)

If you look into the joys or the things which drives you, which makes you run, if you penetrate all those things with this truth that you are unclutched, you will get beautiful insights: how you are playing with yourself. See, in these two days all I am trying to do is to give you a totally a clear, truthful, honest idea about yourself. Then automatically that will change your activities, words, deeds, your decisions about everything. Everything will be taken care once you have a clear idea about your identity and yourself. Unless you have a clear idea about your identity, no morality or no changing your life will help you. You can try your best to change your life but nothing will help. You will...any instruction you will follow as long as you have inspiration.

(07:23)

I have seen people. We did few surveys also how many people do meditation. Maximum is twenty percent and that also for ten days, not more than that. We did a survey in last three years, we have done meditation to quarter million people. Quarter million people have taken our LBP Programs all over the world. Quarter million is not small number in three years especially. We have touched quarter million people and the survey says hardly twenty percent continue to meditate. Any instruction you will follow only as long as you have inspiration. Really just two months ago only I started thinking seriously. Then what can help people? By giving meditation My organization is growing but they are not growing. I saw I wanted to find some way, some way to transform people permanently, give them the transformation as a solid experience.

(08:35)

Then I came up with this Dhyana Spurana Program. I thought or I can say that I felt really intuitively if people can have clear experience of about their self, that can completely change their attitude towards the world, towards the life, towards their desires, towards their fear, towards the guilt or whatever is inspiring them, whatever is making them run. It is like a instead of cutting the leaves, straightaway work on the root. Cutting the leaves is not going to help. Sometime if you cut the leaves, tree grows faster. So changing the actions is not going to help. Maybe the changing the concept about yourself, giving you the truth in the core level, maybe that can help you, maybe that can inspire you to transform your whole life. That is the reason I am trying to work.

(09:47)

See, I am giving you the torch. You apply in every step here in this program. My earlier programs, your participation is not required. Just do what I say. That is enough. Nothing else is required but here I am only giving you the torch. Your participation is important. You need to take the torch and look into yourself. With this truth you need to work on yourself. You need to direct your attention towards your being. Now take few minutes and see how your desires are connected and created as shaft, how they drive you and how you don’t find what you want in that object and even after finding why you don’t want to drop that object and try to force joy on that object or try to force yourself on that object. Sometime you can’t accept there is nothing outside. Then you feel empty. Then you feel the fear of loneliness, what for I am living, what for I am running, what is going on? You feel complete depression.

(11:14)

People are afraid that if all the joys and hopes are taken away, they may become depressed beings. Let you be very clear, depression will never happen when you know the truth. Depression will happen only if the objects are taken away and truth is not given to you. Then you may get depressed, you may fall in tamas. Now I am doing two things: One, taking away the objects. Second, giving you the truth. You will never fall into depression. Don’t bother and in the path towards the truth, when you travel towards the truth, even if you fall in depression for few days, nothing wrong. It’s worthy. It is a worthy thing. Travelling towards the truth is the life. Either today or tomorrow, some one day you have to do that. Earlier you do, better for you.

(12:18)

Now you can just take few minutes. If you want to sit with closed eyes, you can or if you just want to sit with open eyes, whatever way you want, just contemplate how you connect in your life. If you want you can read whatever you have written in the morning-your mind, a specimen of your mind and you can see how you connect in every inch. I want you to understand completely this truth and apply. That’s what, in Vedanta we say shravana-listening, manana-contemplating and nididhyasana-expressing. Now you heard. Try to contemplate how you are connecting and creating shafts.

(13:08)

All the prana, prana means the energy which drives you. All your desires are someway or other connected shafts. It is just nothing but connected shaft. How you create shaft to drive you and even after running, when you don’t find anything, how you justify the shaft, how you don’t suspect yourself. Constantly you suspect everybody but you never suspect yourself. You don’t suspect your decisions. You don’t suspect your lifestyle. You don’t suspect the decisions which are base for your life and you suspect everything else. When something goes wrong, you suspect everybody and everything but you never suspect the root cause of you that your identity itself. Please start contemplating. After few minutes, I will answer your questions related to this subject.

(14:16) to (20:08) Meditation (20:09)

I want you to contemplate on this one single truth. This single truth can liberate you completely. This single truth has got power to liberate you from all the problems whether it is physical or mental or emotional level or spiritual level. This one truth can take away all the miseries.

(0:19)

Here is a beautiful question. Somebody is asking, “In the West, the current biggest crime is identity theft. So Your advice would be-Go ahead and take it?”

(0:31)

Be very clear. I say that your identity doesn’t exist. How can I say take it? As far as the society concerned, the identity is used to play the game. So naturally whatever is in the society, you have to follow the social rule. Be very clear, I am not politician. I am not giving you social rules. I am not here to define or criticize or comment about laws. I am giving you completely spiritual freedom. So My words are supposed to be understood in the level of spirituality and that flavor will express itself in your life.

(01:11)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s letter): Please grant me total and complete self realization. I am tired of this unending pursuit of realization.

(01:18)

Be very clear. If you are tired, then you are in right place. You are in right place. All I am asking you is just be unclutched. You don’t even have to do...you see, you don’t even have to do something to be unclutched. You are already unclutched. Constantly you are thinking you are connected. Just relax from that or understand it is a lie. Nothing else is necessary. Nothing else is necessary and I don’t even have to grant you complete realization. If I can grant, then any day I can take it away. Be very clear. Granted by somebody always there is a danger. He may take it away. He may take it back. So self realization can neither be granted by somebody nor it can be given by somebody. He can share the path through which He experienced. There is every chance the fire may...you can catch the fire. The transmission of lamp can happen. Now if you are really tired, just relax. You are in right place.

(02:39)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s letter): Your definition of morality was very interesting. Can You please repeat it? It would be great if You could talk more or expand on it.

(02:49)

See, morality means where you are completely alive, vibrating and by your very nature, you are not interested in disturbing others. You are not interested in touching anybody. When you understand your identity is a pure lie, you will never think of stealing the identity of others. You will never bother about stealing the identity of others... According to Me, when you don’t have that constant irritation which you are carrying in you, you will be moral. You will have that ultimate morality. The one and only way to achieve morality is do something to drop the constant irritation which you are carrying in you. The constant irritating mood, do anything. You can see in your life, from morning till night, you are constantly burning inside. You are carrying something like a fire inside. You are just waiting some reason to jump on people. You are almost... the anger is overflowing, in the being level. You are just waiting. That constant irritation if it can be dropped, be very clear, you will have ultimate morality.

(04:19)

According to Me, morality means being completely in tune with the identity which you are carrying within you. I am not bothered about the identity which you are showing to the outer world. Everybody knows that is a pure lie. That all of you know. I don’t have to teach but the second thing is important. The identity which you are carrying inside, that is also a lie. That is what I wanted to emphasise throughout this two-day workshop. I want you to understand the identity or the idea which you are carrying within you is a pure lie, pure myth. You can neither develop nor work on that. Just relax from it. Suddenly you will see something else is happening in your innerspace. All I am trying to do is to help you not to waste your energy in the wrong direction.

(05:20)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s question): When talking about Enlightenment, are You talking about the state of omnipresence, Self realisation?

(05:26)

Omnipresence, omniscient, omnipotent, whatever other omnis you want to put, all those omnis put together. I am talking about all those omnis put together. I am talking only about that Self-Realization. I am not talking about small s. I am talking about capital letter S. Any other doubt you have about which Self-Realization I am talking-Nirvana, Atma jnana, Brahma jnana, Mukti, Kaivalya, Videha kaivalya and I think these are the few words, only few words I know. So be very clear, I am talking only about that Enlightenment and in Enlightenment, there is no variety, no variety. It is not like a pizza you can have. According to Me, Enlightenment is only one. I don’t know any other variety of Enlightenment is available. At least in India, we don’t have. There is only one Enlightenment. I am talking about that only.

(06:29)

See, I don’t...sometimes I don’t use that big, big words like Atma jnana, Brahma jnana and all those things that people are afraid of those words. Constantly people are asking Me again and again, “Swamiji, should I become sanyasi? Should I renounce everything to achieve Enlightenment?” I tell them, “You don’t have to renounce what you have. Just renounce what you don’t have.” There is no need to renounce what you have. Whatever you have, have it. Just renounce what you don’t have. The one important thing which you don’t have means the shaft. The shaft you don’t have but constantly you are creating the shafts. Just renounce that. That is enough. Live with whatever you have.

(07:13)

One more thing, as on now, if there are ten thousand flowers, you just pick up some ten flower and make a garland and you start identifying yourself with that ten flower and you give power and attention only to that ten flower. If you stop giving power to that ten flower, the whole heap, ten thousand flowers will have energy. There is a possibility of all your thoughts becoming reality. All your thoughts will have tremendous power and strength. I am talking about an important thing. In Tantra they say, to achieve the state of Bhairava, Bhairava means Enlightenment, two way: either you have to make all your dreams into reality or you should understand all your reality is nothing but the dream.

(08:12)

If you make all your dreams into reality, suddenly you will realise all the reality is nothing but your dream. If you do the first step, second step will happen. If you do the second step, first will happen. Both are directly connected. If you realise what you think as reality is nothing but a dream, all your dreams will be realised. If you realise all your dreams all the reality will become nothing but a dream. As on now, you just pick up few flowers and create a shaft and give power to that, give your attention to that. You think you are only that. You are identifying only with that. That is why all suffering.

(08:59)

If you stop identifying with that selected thoughts, you have a big selective amnesia problem. If you stop identifying with that selected thoughts, suddenly you will see all your thoughts get the power. Your whole being, whatever is happening in you is having the same attention and energy. First thing, you will be able to realise all your thoughts into reality. Be very clear, it is a very simple, powerful method to make your dreams into reality. Whatever dreams you have about future or life, if you can relax, if you can unclutch, you will see suddenly a new kind of energy flowing through the thoughts. Even to achieve what you want, unclutching is the ultimate technique. That is a powerful technique even to achieve what do you want, whatever you want. Let you be very clear, the unclutching is the ultimate technique which can give you everything.

(10:08)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s letter): Emotions override rationality and even understanding to form shaft. How do you deal with it?

(10:17)

One thing, now understand, the shaft is a lie. Once you understand, even if you create a shaft what is there? Even when you create a shaft and suffer, remember whenever you can remember. Yes, even this idea that I am creating shaft is one more shaft. The shaft which I created ten years ago, the shaft which I created nine years ago, the shaft which I created yesterday, they are not connected. Connecting all these shafts is a one more shaft. That’s all. Connecting all these shafts is a one more shaft. Let you be very clear. Even connecting and creating the shafts is one more shaft. This understanding when it goes to the deeper level, that itself is enough. You don’t have to think that emotions override rationality and even understanding to form shaft. These are all again you are trying to create some practice. Do not try to create any practice.

(11:22)

When you remember this moment that shaft is a lie, now don’t create shaft. Don’t bother about next moment. The big problem is, you wanted an assurance now itself you will not create shaft once for all in your future. You can’t have that assurance. When you want to have the assurance I will not create shaft, I should achieve a state where I will never create shaft any more Swamiji, you can’t do that. Let you be very clear. When you want to achieve that state, you create problems. When you try, you see, when you don’t create shaft, you feel some relaxation, inner healing. You will see, if you are tortured by your mind, if you are suffering with your mind, this truth will give you such a inner healing, relaxation, now you will become greedy about this joy. Now you will become greedy about this joy. You are afraid any moment you may forget this truth and you will start getting caught with the shaft again. So now you want an assurance. Swamiji, tell us some way that we should always remember and not to create this shaft. When you are trying to create that assurance, be very clear, you are creating one more shaft. The moment you decide this is joy and you want this to be permanently with you, what you have done? You have started creating one more shaft. Then you are in trouble. Whether it is joy or pain, the moment you create shaft, you are in trouble. You are in trouble.

(13:08)

(Swamiji responds to a devotee’s letter): He is asking how do you deal with it. You don’t have to deal. Why should you deal? Just if the shaft is there, then you can deal with it. Here there is no shaft. Then why should you deal? All you have to do is you are constantly telling a lie to yourself that there is a shaft and you are doing everything to yourself to believe that there is a shaft.

Transcript:

(0:17)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s letter): Are You saying unclutch, just detach. Do your duty, don’t expect any reward. Things will take care of itself, just like Krishna said or the Jesus said ‘This too will pass.’

(0:29)

Who is the questioner? One more request. Please do not connect your earlier teachings and these teachings and create one more shaft. When you connect My words with Krishna’s words and Jesus’ words, you will create one more shaft and you will do the same thing which you have done to their teachings. Be very clear. When you heard their teachings, you have not become enlightened. You put them in one corner of your mind and somehow you managed to play a hypocritical game. They are all there in one corner and you are living your life. Now if you connect My teachings with their teachings and create a shaft, you will do the same thing to My words. You will not allow My words to work on you. When you connect Me with them, you will put Me also in one corner. how you dumped them into one corner and don’t connect Me with all these teachings. If you connect Me with all these teachings, you will do the same thing which you have done to them.

(01:32)

‘Are You saying the same thing like Krishna?’ Did that word shake you? Have you realized that word? No. If you have, then you have to sit here, (shows His throne) not there. You have not realized. Somehow you have made your own understanding and kept in one file, one corner. Buddha says...Jesus says...Krishna says...and it is there in one corner. Whenever you don’t have any work, it’s like when you don’t find any work, you go into your house library and just see all those things and you pick up some book and sit and read few lines and throw it away somewhere and when some work comes, you say, ‘Bye, enough’ and you just play with the books. Just like that you are playing with all of them and do not put Me in the same shaft. Do not connect Me with the same shaft. Then you will dump Me also in one corner and I will also be lying there. You will not be helped even by this. Do not create shaft.

(02:31)

That is the reason I always tell people. If you have come fresh without reading all this, you can be helped easily. If you read, heard all these things, now you will connect with Me, connect now and you will be sitting and validating. Be very clear, validating Me is not going to help you. You may start going out and saying, you may start saying to the others, “Oh! He is embodiment of Ramakrishna, Shiva, Buddha, Krishna.” That is not going to help you. That is not going to help you. Be very clear. Allow these teachings to penetrate you. Do not make one more shaft out of it. Let it straight away touch your being. Let something happen in you. Let you not be a same person when you go back tomorrow after the program. Now let you see what is going on in you, how you are playing so many hypocritical games, how you are doing all these things.

(03:32)

See, you are trying to escape from Me with all your techniques... You are trying your best somehow to escape from the truth. Somehow you wanted to protect your identity. You are trying to put so many shields in front of you. Someway you are trying to create something and your mind is so cunning it will start creating something or other.

(04:02)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s letter): During and after meditation I feel good and energised. That good feeling inspires me to meditate the next day.

(04:09)

Be very clear, you are trying to create that shaft. The good feeling you are trying to elongate that shaft. Again you are in danger.

(04:18)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s letter): Can I use in this shaft in the initial stages of my spiritual path?

(04:23)

This is important thing. Nobody is in the initial stage. Let you be very clear. No question of initial stage or ending stage. Spirituality is not like a cancer. In cancer only, four stages are there. In Enlightenment, no stages. Either you are enlightened now or never. Patanjali says beautifully. He describes about eight steps and he says, till samadhi, you have not even taken the first step. After samadhi, no steps are required. He says very clearly. Even though he has described... even though he has described eight steps, he says, till samadhi, you have not taken even the first step. After samadhi, no step is required. Let you be very clear, in the initial level, ‘I am the seeker’, ‘I am in the beginning level’ - all these things are cunning word you are using to postpone the transformation. You just wanted to play around for some more time. You do not want the truth straight away. Then better at least go back to your house and enjoy the TV. Why you are unnecessarily wasting two days here? Let you be very clear, the word, the idea, ‘Am I in the beginning level’- all these things are just consolation.

(05:54)

You see, I have seen people even after thirty years saying, “I am now only started growing, Swamiji.” It will never happen. See, these are all words. Why do you want to come to that stage after thirty years? Now itself I tell you the truth. I have a big R and D department, Research and development department. I have so much of data available from all the professional seekers and seekers who are seeking for last thirty years, forty years. I am making the whole thing available to you. Why don’t you use all these things? Why don’t you update yourself? Why don’t you update your intelligence with all these available data? Why do you want to wait and after thirty years wanted to come to the same understanding? Update yourself with the intelligence available. Let you be very clear, you will never feel you are progressing with your mind. You will always feel you are in the initial stages.

(06:52)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s letter): This shaft also doesn’t exist, a shaft which you are saying. I feel good and energised.

(06:58)

If you feel good and energised after meditation, spiritual progress means straightaway having Enlightenment. Anything less than Enlightenment, be very clear, you are having a nice game. Let you be very clear. I am also giving so many meditation programs. It will all give you the feel good factor. Nice thing, nice thing. It’s like a you go to some temple and sit for half an hour and chant something and you feel very relaxed. You feel relaxed because you forgot about your mother-in-law or your family, your wife and husband. Nothing else. Just that feel good feeling is there but that is no way related to spirituality. If you are happy with that, I have no problem. Be in that level but if you are really serious about the transformation, if you really wanted Dhyaan, when I use the word dhyaan, I mean the experience of samadhi. If you are really interested in the ultimate experience or the truth, then what I am saying is the truth.

(08:04)

I also have big, big idols in our ashram. I have the biggest Venkateswara in our ashram. You have come to our ashram, you can see. Even in that things, I don’t miss anything. I keep everything. You can play with all of them. I have big, big idols. You can also come to the ashram and play with them whole day from morning till evening. I also sit and play with them. Nothing wrong but be very clear. You are not in the spiritual line. At least let you be clear. You are not spiritual. At least let you be clear where you are standing. Good entertainment. Nothing wrong. Much better than going and sitting in any show or disco club. Much better than all those things but not spiritual. Let you be very clear, you are playing. Never think it is spirituality. Never think it is spirituality.

(08:52)

There are levels of truths. Physically doing anything, physically offering yourself is worship. Verbally offering is japa and mentally is the visualization. Now I say completely offer your being, offer your identity itself. Only then you will be able to transform your being. Otherwise part by part you will be just playing games. You will be just playing games. You played enough of games and I tell you, you have played enough of games. There is no need to have one more game.

(09:34)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s question): About vacations, I do enjoy the time but photograph capture the moment to enjoy it again and again. Is that not good?

(09:44)

Let you be very clear. If you really enjoy the time, you will not have joy when you look at the photographs. You see, looking at the photograph is totally different. Looking at the photographs and bringing that memory back and enjoying is totally different. When you enjoy the photographs of your vacation, you try to bring that memory and try to cherish that memory. You visualise or think that you were happy at that moment, you were happy at that moment, you were joyful at that moment. That is what I am saying, you be very clear, if you really enjoyed, there won’t be any hangover. There won’t be any hangover. You won’t bother about looking at the photograph and bringing back that memory into you and enjoying it.

(10:37)

Two thing: the experience of enjoyment and the memory related to that enjoyment. It is like a taste of the sweet and the sweet. Taste of the sweet is the experience of joy and the sweet associated with the taste is the object. If you really experienced the joy, object will not be in your memory. This joy will become so powerful, the experience will become so strong, the object will not have any place in your innerspace. The object will not rule your innerspace. If you are under the clutch of the object, be very clear you have not had real experience.

(11:22)

Krishnamurthy says beautifully, even once you go through any experience intensely, you will be liberated from that experience. You will be liberated from that object. If you are still carrying the memory of that object means you have not had the experience. You have not had any intense experience. Let you be very clear, if you really enjoyed the photographs, you will not bring that memory back, memories back and cherish them.

(11:54)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s question): I am starting a new job. I am very inspired to make it successful fully realising that when it is successful, the excitement will be gone. Does that mean I should not work hard towards achieving this?

(12:14)

If you are fully realising that when it is successful, the excitement will be gone, I assure you the excitement will be never lost. It will never be lost. When you know the excitement will be gone, the excitement which you are having now is out of understanding. It is not out of ignorance. Excitement out of understanding will never be lost. Let you be very clear. You have written, you see you say, ‘I know when I am successful, the excitement will be gone’ means you have a clear understanding but still you feel excited. Then be very clear, it will never go away. This is the excitement which comes out of your being after being unclutched. It will never be lost. Excitement out of ignorance only will be lost. Excitement out of understanding will never be lost. Carry on.

(13:13)

(Swamiji reads a devotee’s question): Even though I know money cannot assure happiness I still save for retirement. Why is that? Should one not save?

(13:24)

I am not asking you not to save but let you be very clear, the idea or the connection which you are making with the money and happiness, just be disconnected from that. I am not saying drop your money or forget about your money. I am not saying that. I am not even saying do some charity, you will have some heaven. I don’t believe in that. Let Me be very clear. One more thing, even if you give money for My Foundation, I can’t give you any special ticket there. Nothing can be done. I can’t sell any heaven ticket, special visa, nothing, no VIP pass. See, in India, if you give forty five rupees, here you may have one dollar but there is no exchange counter between this world and the heaven. Do some charity if you feel like sharing, that’s all, not to have something afterwards.

(14:25)

People ask Me, “In that case, why are You building temples and ashrams, Swamiji?” I tell you, My temples and ashrams are the place to experiment and experience what I am teaching. They are inner laboratories. They are not built for some punya. I don’t sell tickets of punya ticket. If you give this much money you will have this much punya. Your money can’t bring you anything except the comforts. You see, as long as you deal with the society, you need to interact. So just for that, the money is there. Let your identity be not affected by the money. Let money not enter your space and let money not guide your happiness or your innerspace. That’s all I am saying.

(15:13)

See, people when they feel elated just by seeing more and more zeros in the bank balance, that pass book. Here what you call? Credit card? In India passbook. Here bank balance, okay. Bank balance. Those few zeros. Any moment that excitement or joy can be taken away and it is just dependent on those few zeros. And one more thing, it is a purely mind. Especially in the Western countries, you don’t even see the bills. At least in India, you see big, big bill and you can keep under pillow. Here you can’t...you don’t even see all these things. This whole currency is a pure idea given to you and you are all just made to...you are all driven crazy with these ideas-with this idea that he has got this, he has got this, he has got this, he has got this, with this idea. According to Me, if we are little intelligent, the whole humanity can be supplied with all the basic needs. Everything can be given.

(16:20)

Anyhow, let’s not...let’s forget about those things. At least have these few understandings with you. Carry these few understandings. You are much, much, much more than what you think as your bank balance. Let you be far more than your bank balance. As on now, your identity about you is created only based on your bank balance. Let you not create your identity about you based on the bank balance. That is the only thing I am saying. See, with money you can choose between the sufferings, that’s all. Don’t think you can choose between happiness and suffering. You can choose between many sufferings. You have choice of your own suffering. Otherwise, nothing else. And one more thing, when you integrate and create the understanding that you are unclutched, so much of energy and understanding will happen to you, you won’t keep quiet. You will create enough money. You will generate wealth. All these small, small questions or doubts which you have about your life will all disappear.

Do Not Add Words, Just Unclutch || Dhyana Spurana || 04 March 2006

Description:

Name Of The Convention: Dhyana Spurana
Session on: Science of Unclutching
Date : 04 March 2006
Venue : Los Angeles, CA, USA
Title: Do Not Add Words, Just Unclutch

In this video, the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism HDH #Nithyananda​ Paramashivam addresses the delegates of the Dhyana Spurana program. HDH highlights the importance of practice, more particularly translating the rational understanding in experience as effective way to add depth to our inner space rather than more words and confusion. Trust and openness are basic requirements for the transmission of knowledge and the spiritual solutions to the problems caused by our identities. It is the identities that are responsible for the creation of suffering shafts to which the ultimate remedy is, in fact, unclutching.

(0:15)

Next thing, creating a confidence that I can open up, I can spell out my problems and I will have only solution, I will not have side effects. Somebody going and talking outside and that trust, if it can be created, then really you will feel comfortable. You will be able to open up and you can have the truth straight. See, now, still now, I am speaking only in a generalized way. I think second session I told you. I can speak only in a generalized way. Only if you open up, I can throw light to the specific problem. Customized Enlightenment can be given only if I have the exact problems. Only then, it is possible. Everybody is afraid to open up and unless you have that confidence, neither you will be helped nor others will be helped.

(01:08)

Swamiji reads a letter: Swamiji, some of us did hear You well. Words cannot always describe the state of being. I for one does not even care for the identity I have. The emptiness or aloneness I felt were enough. That’s nice!

(01:35)

Swamiji reads a letter: Be Blissful, Be Unclutched- Are they same? Yes, they are one and the same. Be Blissful and Be Unclutched.

(01:44)

Swamiji reads a letter: Please tell me when a more generalized theme arises in many camouflaged forms showing up as the same shaft. For example, fear of rejection. Swamiji: Yes, more when always... you see, when you try to unclutch yourself from one shaft, the other shaft will rise. You will be constantly playing with the shaft. That is true. Next?

(02:16)

Devotee: I have question, ya. It was sort of a philosophical or may be not. Swamiji: Hmm? Devotee: It is a sort of a philosophical or maybe not. Since the concept of time or the shaft related to time itself doesn’t exist, what’s the hurry? Swamiji: Where is the…? Devotee: What is the hurry? Swamiji: What is hurry? Why should we do... what he is asking?(Swamiji asks the audience and gets the question clarified) No, you can wait. I have no problem. You can wait. I have no problem. You see, I am unclutched. I am quite happy. If you want, you be...you listen the truth and be unclutched. Otherwise, be happy. I have no problem. I will have one more program. I have no problem.

(03:05)

Here is a question, “How is unclutch different from being detached from our loved ones?” See, your detachment is in a way hatred. See, all your loved ones you have lot of...what to say that...very harsh memories or very disturbed memories about them also. Be very clear, these loved ones you can write when you write for Me. Inside you - you know you have some hatred also about them. So it is very easy to have moodswing of attachment and detachment. That is no way connected to unclutched. Being unclutched means you will expand your space. and the quality of your relationship will be much more better. You will be unclutched from the ideas which you carry about them. You will have lot more love, lot more compassion, lot more understanding, lot more respect about them, for them. Don’t think detachment is unclutching. Detachment is when you feel disturbed, you feel detached and after few days again, you try to put your hand. It is just a play. When you feel you are disturbed, you take away your hands, again you slowly you try and go there. After some time, suddenly you take your hand. It’s just a game you are playing. That is no way connected to being unclutched. Unclutched is totally different. Hmm?

(04:35)

Devotee: I just wanted to share little bit of my experience when we were doing the silent, unclutched. We were just sitting in state of being unclutched and there was such a profound sadness that I had during that experience because I felt like I really was letting go of the identity I have you know and that is such a big part of who we identify ourselves as, that it is a very sad thing to let go and I think that’s where the fear comes from.

(05:08)

Swamiji: So be very clear, the moment you decided to speak, you let go...you forgot about your identity. That is why you are able to speak. This very thought to hold the mike and speak, your identity is not there in that space. Unless you move that, the thought to speak will not be there. It’s not a big thing. Because somehow you got all these words in your being, if you lose your identity you will have pain, all these words you created and created a shaft. That is the reason you are suffering or you think you are suffering. If you look into that profound sadness, when it is happening itself, you look without word, it will be a profound silence. Because you don’t know the right word, sometime you start using wrong word for the right emotion.

(05:56)

Many time, you start using the word pain for pleasure because you never experienced pleasure in a deep way. Whatever happens, you always think it is a disturbance. It is very easy to use the wrong word because it is very easily available. The availability is more. So be very clear, when exactly it is happening, that moment if you see, it will not be sadness. Just be, even if it is sadness, be unclutched. Sadness is what? Your past sadness and you are connecting and this is the same. That is why you say it is sadness. Relax from it. You will see it disappears.

(06:36)

Devotee: XXXXnot audible Swamiji: No, no, no. You are not unclutched by your nature. All those ideas are put into your head but you have never practised.

(06:59)

Devotee: But the question is, why do we, Indians or non-Indians, whichever race we belong to, why there are problems of jealousy, stealing, unfaithfulness in relationships or problems. Swamiji: Because of this basic problem. Basic problem of creating your identity and trying to develop the identity.

(07:25)

Devotee: So it is the identity that tells someone, that allow someone to go and murder, steal? Swamiji: Yes, yes, naturally. See, you wanted to develop, you wanted to increase the length or breadth or volume of the identity which you are showing to the outer world. So if you have vested interest, if somebody dies, you may expand that identity means you try to kill. By stealing, if you feel that you will expand that identity, you will try to steal, that’s all.

(07:54)

Devotee: But how can that identity be pleasurable? Swamiji: You see, be very clear. For you, it may not be pleasure. For them it is the pleasure Devotee: I mean… Swamiji: You can’t understand. Nothing can be done. I also don’t understand but nothing can be done. That is what is going on!

(08:16)

Devotee: Swamiji, in the outer world, if you are asked, “Who are you?” you say your name. In the inner world, at the same time, can we answer, “I am unclutched” to yourself.

(08:28)

Swamiji: You see, even you are answering I am unclutched is not going to help. If you are experiencing you are unclutched, then it is going to help. Otherwise, you will make that unclutched word one more mantra like how these vedantis have made Aham Brahmasmi as one more mantra. All these so-called vedantis you can see, the whole day they will be sitting and reciting, repeating Aham Brahmasmi, Aham Brahmasmi, Aham Brahmasmi, Aham Bramhasmi. What are you doing? I am meditating, I am doing japa of Aham Brahmasmi ten thousand times. Aham Brahmasmi is supposed to be experienced. I am unclutched should become an experience. Understand the truth and let it become experience, not repeating of ‘Aham Brahmasmi’.

(09:09)

Swamiji reads a letter: Surrendering to the guru or the divine, is it the same as being unclutched? Swamiji: I can say, just be unclutched. Do not bother whether it is same as surrendering and all because the more and more words you create, more and more complications.

(09:25)

Swamiji reads a letter: We long to hear Your blast of truth. Swamiji: Who is that person? Get ready. I will blast.

(09:33)

Swamiji reads a letter: I think that a lot of lies get told to us as we grow up especially in West and in big cities. Parents tell us these lies. Society tells us these lies. Go to school, go to college, get a degree, get a job, work forty years. Company pays for your retirement. O yes and get married with kids. It is all a lie and therefore, most people here get depressed because they sense the lie. When You teach the young ananda course, will You teach them about some of the lies that will be told to them as they grow up and how to guard against it?

(10:12)

Swamiji: Then nobody will send their kids to My course. No, I won’t tell about the lies but I will give them intelligence to handle the lies. I will give them intelligence in a very secret way and that and all, I won’t tell now. Devotee: XXXX(not audible) Swamiji: What name I have given you? Ahimsa. Then you have to start becoming Ahimsa. You should start experiencing ahimsa out and out. Even that small plant, animals you should not kill. Devotee: XXXX(not audible) Swamiji: Oh God! Devotee: XXXX(not audible) Swamiji: Then get somebody else to take care of them.

(11:08)

Swamiji reads a letter: I usually seem to get upset with my loved ones. Can I use unclutch to break this cycle? Swamiji: Yes, then naturally you will not be upset. You see, all your so-called loved ones are nothing but intimate enemies. That is the truth. So if you are unclutched, all these things will disappear. Yes?

(11:27)

Devotee: Swamiji, this is a great concept what You gave us but it is relatively very new. At least I am hearing first time now but in the Gita, whatever we have heard in the past, Lord Krishna says, “Worship Me only. If you worship, you come to Me.” Swamiji: When...you should understand one important thing. He doesn’t mean that six feet Krishna with that peacock feather, with all that flirts around-not that Krishna. See, let you be very clear. When he says worship Me, you will reach Me, He means the Parabrahma Krishna, not Vasudeva Krishna. Krishna means embodiment of the Ultimate consciousness.

(12:07)

Swamiji reads a letter: How can a shaft obsessed mind free itself from shafts? Swamiji: Understand, all your shafts, your ideas about shaft is one more shaft.

(12:18)

Swamiji reads a letter: I need help with this. You say ‘Just understand.’ Who is it to understand? If I lose my identity, who is it that my wife is going to be relating to? Swamiji: Be very clear, your wife will be relating with you only. Don’t worry and don’t bother about that. Your wife will be relating with you only but you will be a real you. You will be much more sweet person, much more sweet person to relate with. As on now, if I ask her, she will tell how horrible you are. When you are not around, if I ask her she will tell how horrible you are. At least if you are unclutched, she will be able to relate with you properly.

(13:09)

Alright, let you understand this one truth and tonight, whole night, just be unclutched whether you are dreaming or fast asleep, remember all your dreams are also nothing but shaft. All your deep sleep state also nothing but shaft. Tomorrow morning the first moment, the first moment when you get up from the bed, remember you are unclutched.
