Sadāshiva samārambhām Shankarāchārya madhyamām | asmat āchārya paryantām vande guru paramparām ||

I welcome you all with My love and respects.

(00:41)

Today we will understand the truth of satsanga. There is a very beautiful verse by Shankara; सत्संगत्वे निस्संगत्वं, निस्संगत्वे निर्मोहत्वं। निर्मोहत्वे निश्चलतत्त्वं, निश्चलतत्त्वे जीवन्मुक्तिः ॥९॥ Satsangatve nissangatvam nissangatve nirmohatvam, nirmohatve niscalatattvam niscalatattve jivanmuktiH. Satsanga directly leads to jivanmukti; straight method to jivanmukti . If I have to define satsanga I can define in three ways. The ultimate satsanga is just being with the ‘sath’, your own atman, un-clutching. Be un-clutched and be with your atman. Be with your ‘sath’. That is the first level, ultimate satsanga. Whenever you are not able to do that, whenever you are not able to be in that space, then the second level satsanga is - be with the words of a person who constantly drives you towards the ‘sath’; who is constantly reminding you to be un-clutched. Please understand, read the books which tells you not to waste your time in just reading the books. Listen to the words of a person who constantly reminds you not to just waste time in listening to the words. The first level of satsanga is being with your own self - ‘sath’- by un-clutching. The second level is being with the words, being with the Being who constantly asks you to be in Being. Being with the words of a person who constantly tells you to go beyond words. Being with the Being who reminds you to be in your Being - means Masters Presence. The first level satsanga is to be un-clutched and be with yourself. Whenever you can’t, the second level satsanga is - be always, whatever possible way, whether it is His Physical Presence or listening to His words or meditating, remembering His leelas or just internalizing His words through books. All this can come put together as satsanga with Master who constantly puts you in the ultimate satsanga.

(04:32)

Please understand the first level of satsanga is being with yourself, being un-clutched. The second level of satsanga is being with the Being who constantly reminds you to be in Being. There is a beautiful example used in Vedanta, it’s called Bhramara keeta nyaya. A bee will pick up a worm, put it in small mud shell made by it and constantly sit on the gate of the mud shell and create the sound, the brahmi sound. That is why the Mahamantra dhyan is called as brahmi dhyana. The original Sanskrit word for the meditation is brahmi. But in Pali, in Buddhism it became Mahamantra. In Sanskrit, in the Tantra tradition it is called brahmidhyana; just intensely humming. Brahmi means ‘bee’. Just like bee, because it creates sound its called brahmidhyana. That bee sits in the edge, corner, gateway of that small mud shell and starts creating intense sound. Just by the power of that sound, a worm becomes bee. Same way the hen sits on the egg just by the physical heat, presence of the hen egg becomes chicken. Just if a hen sits on the egg, the breathing space, the breathing energy, the prana shariras heat, just that makes the egg into chicken.

(06:46)

The makara-crocodile, fish, all these jeevas, they lay the egg banks of the river, close it with mud - just by the constant remembrance hatches the egg. Please understand, The brahmi bee makes worm into bee by the sound - teachings. The hen makes the egg into chicken by the physical presence, touch - initiation, keeping in the breathing space and initiation, the physical touch. Makara-crocodile, tortoise, fish all of them hatch the egg and make the egg into fish, or crocodile or tortoise just by remembrance.

(07:54)

Master hatches you through all these three; through his teachings - first level, through the initiation - second level, through constant remembrance of you wherever you are, he hatches you into a new being. He makes you into very His self. First the words - teachings.Then the touch - sparsa, initiation.Then wherever you are, because constantly you are connected to him... how you remember him, he goes on remembering you. I can see very clearly, millions of people are living inside this body. Whoever is remembering, they are all living inside this body. Each cell is responding independently to all the people who are remembering this body.

(09:03)

That is why, the enlightened beings, the incarnations will be available in the form of divyasharira even after they leave the body. When they give initiation to a disciple they take a vow, “Till you become enlightened I’ll be available to you even if I leave the body.” That is why when the Masters leave the body their divyasharira will be available in aksharadhama. Means the imperishable space. aksharadhama is the gateway of kshara and akshara; perishable and non-perishable. It is the gateway of form and formlessness. It is the gateway of ice and water. Water is formless, ice is form. So where both of them are touching that is the space called aksharadhama. We call it shambala. All Enlightened Beings, all incarnations, till all their disciples achieve enlightenment reside in aksharadhama in the form of divyasharira. Their divyasharira is available.

(10:29)

Please understand, that is why if you are initiated by an enlightened sadguru or incarnation you don’t need another one master. Just connecting with that master is enough. Maybe sometime that master himself will guide you to a living master if required. If he guides, catch the living master. If you don’t get guidance from him, don’t worry he himself will take care. Just retain the strong vitarka with him, that’s all. As long as the disciples are liberated they will be available in aksharadharma. If they’re incarnations they take a vow not only to liberate their disciples and they create few masters on the planet earth among their disciples, enlightened masters and they take a vow, all the disciples initiated by their disciples, till they become enlightened they will be available in aksharadhama.

(11:42)

As far as My experience goes, Krishna and Buddha have taken the vow of enlightening seven generation of their disciples. That is why still they are available. Still they are verily available. Of course Shirdi Sai Baba, Ramakrishna, Ramana Maharshi, Mahavatar Baba, these are some other masters I can name still available in aksharadhama to attend your calls and needs and your prayers. Still they are available online. All they need is just you calling, nothing else. The power of satsanga is so strong it just makes you ‘sath’. Please understand whatever you remember, whatever you hear, becomes part of you even if you try to avoid. That is why Ramakrishna again and again says, during that spiritual growth time, don’t try to have the heroism of going and attacking, or spending time with negative people and trying to justify, trying to fight with them and change their opinion. Don’t do. Just don’t listen. That is the best way. Understand Ramakrishna says, when a Banyan Tree is sprouting and growing even a small goat can destroy it. But if it grows even elephant cannot do anything. You can tie the elephant to the tree; nothing can be done. But when you are growing, you are just a sapling - plant, a small goat can come and spend half an hour with you and destroy your growth. Don’t allow that to happen. Don’t think, ‘No, I will face him, I will change his logic’. No. Negativity is sometime more appealing to you than positive experience because eighty percent of you is still in unconscious.

(14:02)

I could see during this scandal so many wonderful disciples, possibility of getting enlightened, they would have just flowered into enlightenment; just one or two sessions with unconscious negative people, enough, they were able to destroy the possibility of enlightenment, the very root of vitarka. Understand, whenever…. Krishna says very beautifully - He gives freedom for Enlightened Beings to do anything. See, Enlightened Beings have no rule, they can do anything. But He puts one restriction on Enlightened Beings. They have no right to destroy anybody’s faith on anything, even if it is low, dull, mooda. He says very word, even it is a foolish faith... if somebody has a faith on a small stone, the corner of the village and does pooja to that, everything, or sacrifices goat. From the viewpoint of an Enlightened Being it is very third rate. “Ah, how can God ask for his own child, a goat? How can animal sacrifice be allowed? It’s such a foolishness! I should destroy his faith!” Krishna says, “No!” He says, “No!” Even if it is very low level form of faith, you have no right to destroy it. He says, “Through that, they will come step by step, higher and higher, will reach Me; even if it is a mooda, the foolishness, superstitious worship. Because of their attitude of worshipping, I myself accept that worship in different forms, the names in which they are calling Me”.

(16:06)

That is why Ramakrishna even after becoming enlightened, realizing his avataric mission, establishing a group of sanyas disciples he says, “I know I cannot accept animal sacrifice but I will not stop the animal sacrifice in Kali temple”; where he is a priest, he is a chief priest and he is the practically owner. His word is a direct word of Kali Devi in Dakshineshwar Kali temple. If he wanted in one word he could have stopped the animal sacrifice. He says, “No, I will not disturb their faith’. It may not be right, it may not lead them to enlightenment. It may not be right as per My experience, it may not give them the ultimate but I have no right to destroy anybody’s faith even if it is superstitious” Krishna says, “Even Enlightened Beings have no right to destroy somebody’s faith even if it is lowest form”. Even if Enlightened Beings have no right to destroy the lowest form of a faith, what right the lowest fellows have to destroy the faith on Enlightened Beings? They do not know in what kind of mess they are getting into. Destroying the faith on an Enlightened Being is the worst conspiracy against the cosmos.

(17:53)

I heard there were few ex-disciples claiming that they are enlightened; just few days before I got the news. I said, ‘That is great! If they are, then they should have created their mission, not that they will be hurting My mission’. See when I grew, when I felt I am much more, I have experienced more, I am growing more, I did not destroy Ramakrishna mission; where I started growing! I just started creating My mission; that’s all! When the real growth happens whether as an enlightenment or realization or experience, you will create your mission, that’s all! I just created Nithyananda Mission. I did not go and spend My time or waste My time in destroying Ramakrishna Mission. Or catching all the Ramakrishna Mission disciples and telling them this is what happens there, that is what happens there, destroying their faith, no! Understand when spiritual growth or enlightenment happens to you, this is the scale. You will create your mission. You will never destroy somebody’s faith on anybody, on anything else even if it is lowest form. Destroying somebody’s faith on brahma jnana or anything which leads towards the brahma jnana is brahma hatya dosha. Because that person would have become brahman, would have become enlightened, but you interfere, vomited your ideas, your logic, your things and destroyed his faith, and vitarka, trust! What right you have? No! And that is brahma hatya dosha.

(20:02)

Even if they don’t believe, I go on promoting the cosmic dharma. Go on promoting the spiritual truths. Even if they believe that I don’t live what I teach, Me and My mission is worthy of living just because what we are teaching to the world. And cosmos stands by Me and supports Me just because what I teach to the world, what I share with the world. Of course, when they try to conspire against the spiritual mission and disturb people’s vitarka towards the master or the mission, naturally it’s a conspiracy against the cosmos. And cosmos is alive, it will respond. Understand still cosmos is alive. That is why still we are happening in the planet earth. We are not fools to come to planet earth without enough of protection mechanism, without enough of security mechanism, without enough of defense mechanism. Understand cosmos is still alive. Cosmos is taking care. Cosmos will respond to people who are trying to destroy the faith, sincerity, intensity and vitarka of the people in any way, in any way! Understand, sometime some people come and tell Me, “Swamiji when you are raising the flag there was a garuda bird which was there flying and blessing, swans were there”. I know they were there for their job. But I will never destroy the faith. See, now, just now that bird dropped flower, you see, he was doing his job. But when you have faith that he was celebrating My presence, enjoy it, that’s all. That’s all nothing else. And we don’t need to be so logically, logically, logical. And, “Why did he do? Did he really come as incarnation of some rishi, siddha? Or he was just doing something casually, it happened?” If you just see he is a siddha and he is here for Swamiji’s Presence and he is dropping something out of his gratitude and if that makes you feel more happy and create vitarka, just enjoy that, that is the truth! Forget about everything else. Every tree, every ant, every leaf which is here is here for My Presence. It is not accident, it is incident.

(23:46)

Once Ramanuja after staying so many days in Tirupati, Tirumula, on the hills, gets ready for his pilgrimage, packs his bag, some food, walks all the way, full day. Evening they reach the downhill and they open their food for eating. They found lot of ants in the food. The disciples have started cleaning all the ants. Ramanuja just stopped, ‘No don’t do’. He just packed the whole food safely, not leaving one ant. Walked back all the way up hill, without food! All the way up hill... especially in the night! All the disciples were thinking, “We know he is little crazy, why is he doing this? Has he gone completely crazy?” So they’re all wondering, but nothing can be done. Those day’s disciples have to completely follow the Master. So they all just walked. After going to the top of the hill again, he opened the food and he said, “Now leave the ants here; because we don’t know how many janmas they meditated and did punya to take birth in the presence of Tirumula; the energy field of Venkateshwara, to be there. We have no right to take them out of this energy field and leave them somewhere else. Understand? Even when Masters become deities, siddhas comes to live around in their Presence. When deity becomes Masters naturally all the siddhas, all the high level beings come to live around them.

(25:47)

Ramana Maharshi says to their disciples, “Don’t touch a single tree. Don’t touch a single animal here”. There was an incident. Ramana Maharshi had a pet dog. Everyday it will come, when he eats, he will give one handful of food in his leaf itself and the dog will eat and go. One day, one devotee, orthodox devotee, he was so angry, he said, “How dare you put your mouth in Bhagwan’s leaf and eat the food. It is disrespect”. The dog was so depressed, that fellow just went and jumped into the well and committed suicide. Died! When Bhagwan was told this information, his eyes became watery and he called that disciple and said, “You don’t know what you did. He is a siddha purusha; was living around Me for My Presence’. Then he says, “Do not touch a single tree, do not touch a single animal living around in this area. They’re all here for My satsanga”. He says, “The yogaprashtas” - yogaprashta means people who are almost about to get enlightened but body was lost due to some reason - they come down as this kind of animals and plants, live in the Presence of the Master and get liberated in a very short span; without wasting the time in taking the human body, taking the human birth. Because when you take human birth, human mind comes. With human mind always the possibility of taking diversion exists. Even after associating with the Master for a long time, till the ultimate enlightenment happens, there is always the danger of dropping, taking diversion, going back or U-turn.

(27:54)

So, so these siddhas, yoga purushas, eshwarakotis, they do not want to miss satsanga. They take the animal body and plant body and land in the planet earth and be around the Masters, get liberated. Satsanga is so important! Whatever you hear constantly, whatever you see constantly becomes part of you. That is why I tell you, just like how you are very careful about what you eat - you don’t drink poison! “Just I know I’ll defy poison, I’ll just drink and show, prove the logic of the poison is wrong.” No. So don’t try to fight with poison in a foolish way by drinking it. Same way, don’t try to fight with the negative people, unconscious people by letting them near you. I have seen how many people have missed it, lost the master and spiritual life and ultimately enlightenment just because of these few unconscious people, negative people. So, don’t miss it. Don’t miss it.

(29:24)

Don’t have negative company dussanga and constantly try to have satsanga; either by being in the physical presence of the master or by constantly listening to His... Now you have web TV! I am alive, available 24/7! Anandeshwara is available. Constantly you have satsanga. So, have satsanga in your life, you will achieve jivanmukti . That is the essence I wanted to share with you all. Let you all have satsanga. Now you can have satsanga from wherever you are. The web TV is available, discourses are available in Youtube continuously.

(30:54)

The brahmi, bee, making the worm into bee is directly sitting with the Master and listening to His words. Hen sitting on the egg and hatching the egg and making the chicken is master directly working on you, doing the process - living enlightenment process or inner awakening, doing this process. Master remembering you and you remembering him like a fish and tortoise remembering the eggs and hatching. That is what is e-satsanga. Through web TV. Web TV does the job of fish and tortoise, how they hatch the egg. The same thing is done through the Web TV. So constantly be in the satsanga you will remember Me, I will remember you. You will become enlightened. Let you all have satsanga, achieve and radiate enlightenment. Let you all have, achieve, experience, express, live, radiate, the eternal bliss, Nithyananda. Thank You.
