Title: Fall Into Rise Part 2 of 3
 
Name Program: Satsang
 
Session on: Experience Freedom of Mind and End All Your Suffering
 
Date: 19 April 2005
 
Venue: Yellow Springs, Ohio, USA
 
 
In this video Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism HDH #Nithyananda​ Paramashivam elaborates on the experience of the reactive mind and #liberation​ from this by a process He calls as ‘dropping’. Whatever you think as you, just drop that. Whether we experience the sense of suffocation or the sense of boundary-lessness is not dependent on our outer world, but on our inner world. It is dependent on how many ‘energy clots’ we carry in our mental set up.
 
 
Whatever we fall for, that will become the reality in our lives. When we “Fall In” we fall more for the inner world than for the outer world. When we fall for the outer world, we will make that as a reality. It is our decision whether we travel towards the Ephemeral (Pravriti ) or Eternal, the #ultimate​, our being (Nivriti). When we travel inwards, we will just remember who we are.
 
 
HDH #Nithyananda​ Paramsahivam explains how the mind cheats us over and over again by connecting the negative events in our lives. Even when we don’t worry for a while the mind will again come up with some worry, we are habituated to connect all the negative things and create an idea about the world and ourselves. The way we judge ourselves is the same as the way we judge the world.
 
 
When we drop, we raise to the ultimate energy

Let me start with a small story of Buddha, on this subject. A popular
 
and powerful Indian King wants to see Buddha. So he goes to Buddha
 
accompanied by his ministers, representatives and citizens. He carries
 
two things with him: a plate full of diamonds and jewelry, and another
 
full of flowers.
 
  
Buddha looks at his gifts: the diamonds and flowers. He commands

the King "Drop!"
 
  
The King is shocked, and drops the flower plate.
+
I welcome you all with My love and respect.
  
Again, Buddha says "Drop!"
+
(0:24)
  
The King drops the plate of diamonds at Buddha’s feet and stands up.
+
Fall in to rise is the today's topic.
  
Again, Buddha says "Drop!"
+
A small story in Buddha's life. Then we will enter into the subject.
  
Now the King is not able to understand what Buddha means: “The first

A famous king of India, very popular guy. He is powerful. He wants to see Buddha. He goes to see Buddha with all his paraphernalia means his ministers, his citizens, his representatives, everybody. With his whole paraphernalia, he goes to see the Buddha and he carries two things: plate full of jewelleries, the diamonds and in one more plate, full of flowers. Both he takes and goes to see the Buddha. When he goes to see the Buddha, Buddha just looks at his gifts, presents of diamond and flower. He says, ‘drop.’ First, the king was shocked. He dropped the flower plate. Then again Buddha said, ‘drop.’ He dropped the diamonds also. When he stood up, again Buddha said, ‘drop.’ Now the king was not able to understand anything. First time, he thought he is asking me to drop the flower plate. He dropped. Second time, he thought he is asking me to drop the jewels, diamonds also. He dropped. Again Buddha is telling, ‘drop.’ King was puzzled. He was standing. He asked Buddha, “What should I drop?”
time, Buddha asked me to drop the flower plate – so I dropped.
 
  
Second time, Buddha asked me to drop the jewels, the diamonds – so

(02:54)
I dropped. Again Buddha is asking me to drop. I don’t know what to
 
drop”.
 
  
The puzzled King then asks Buddha, "What should I drop?"
+
“Drop yourself. You will rise.”
 +
Immediately next question, king asked, “How to drop?”
 +
That is the usual next question. The moment you bring the idea how, you have made the whole thing complicated. You have complicated the whole thing. Let Me explain what do I mean by the word dropping and how we are complicating it. When I say the word ‘drop,’ whatever you think as you, whatever you think as you, all your idea about you is based on your past experiences. Your past. Your past decisions or your past experiences, past understandings, only based on that but always past is past, dead. That is why it is called past. Always it is past. With your updated present intelligence, if you review the past decisions, you will always create guilt in you. Same way, if you carry the past references into the present decisions, you will replicate or duplicate the same past mistakes in the future.
 +
 +
(04:42)
  
"Drop yourself. You will rise!"
+
Understand these two things. With the present intelligence if you review the past incidents or decisions, you will create guilt in your being. With past decisions or experiences, if you take the present decision, based on the past experiences, if you do the present decisions, you will be replicating or duplicating the same past in the future also, maybe little updated way. You will not do the same mistake, little different but you will be moving in the same level, the same layer, the same way in the same plane. The past is after all dead. Whatever you think as you is just dead. When I say, ‘drop,’ just disconnect. You can, you can disconnect but we always bring one more sentence into our mind, “No, I tried so many times. I am not able to. How can I do that?”
  
Immediately, the next question arises in the King’s mind. He asks
+
(06:00)
"How should I drop myself?"
 
  
This is commonly the very next question. The moment you bring in the
+
When you say, “I tried so many times, I am not able to,” again you have brought the past in. That is also one more past. “I tried, I am not able to” or “I failed” is the past experience. As long as you bring that, how can you say that you have dropped the past? No, that is one more past. When you dream again and again past to the life, to the present life, you live in the same mental setup. In Sanskrit, we call Samskara. Samskara means the mental setup- how you think, how you move, how you live. That mental setup is what we call Samskara. You create a particular Samskara or mental setup and again and again you live only based on that. At some time, you would have tried something which is impossible and naturally you would have failed and those failures will be recorded in you such a deep way as a deep impression, again and again you bring only your failures up to your mind and you start thinking, “No, no, I can't. I can't drop the past. It is too big job for me. I am not so courageous.” You bring these words again and again into your consciousness.  
idea "How", you have made the whole process complicated; you have
 
actually complicated the whole process.
 
  
Let me explain what I mean by the word "dropping", and how we are
+
(07:43)
complicating it.
 
  
When I say the phrase ‘Drop yourself’, there arises in you an idea of
+
One important thing we forget. Any word which is brought again and again into your consciousness gets the power. It gets the power. Your consciousness gives power to everything. Anything comes in front of you receives power. Whether it is good or bad, simply it receives power. Any thought which appears into your being just becoming energetic. Your consciousness is so powerful, so radiant, it gives energy, it gives power for everything. Bring any thought in front of your mind, in front of your consciousness. That will become alive like a projector..... In front of a projector, if you bring any slide, that slide will become reality. If you bring a slide of a temple, you will see the temple in reality. If you bring a slide of an actor, you will see that actor in reality. If you bring the slide of a church, you will see the church in reality. Any slide you bring in front of the projector light, that becomes reality.  
“You”, and the notion of “dropping the You”. Whatever you think of as
 
You, whatever you think of as You, all your ideas about you are based
 
on your past experiences: your past, your past decisions, your past
 
experiences, your past understandings. Your idea of You is only based
 
on these.
 
  
Our past experiences are wired into us, embedded into us. It is not
+
(08:50)
merely what the conscious mind recalls as what has happened in our
 
past that comes back to influence us. Less than 2% of what we
 
observe, what we experience is stored by our conscious mind. 98% is
 
skipped by it and goes straight away into our unconscious mind. We
 
can not recall these events at will. They chose to reveal themselves at
 
their pleasure. It is as if you read a book of 100 pages, but can recall
 
only 2 out of the 100.
 
  
The cumulative experience of the past is what makes or present. The
+
Any word which you bring in front of your consciousness, that becomes reality. Any word especially in the dream state you can realize this. Early morning when you are almost out of sleep but not out of bed, just you are lying, at that time if you just remember or be aware of your dreams, you can see very clearly how the words coming into your mind and becoming vision or becoming reality. Just you will have word, “My friend is coming into my house. I am seeing him,” and you will see the whole dream. It will be word and experience. If you experience this early morning dream, you can understand what I am saying. The early morning, just lying on the couch. Not completely taken over by the sleep or not completely aware. Almost half- half. At that time, if you see your dreams, you can see this. Just words appearing into your mind and become a vision or experience. Any word comes into your mind gets the power and it becomes experience.
cumulative experience of the present is what determines or future.
 
However, we almost always ignore the present. We are rarely in the
 
present. We constantly flit from or experiences of the past to the
 
speculative happenings of the future, without staying in the present.
 
Both the past and the future are unreal; only the present is real.
 
  
Our Past is always past; it is always dead. That is why it is called Past.
+
(10:19)
Yet, we always let this Past affect us.
 
  
How do we do that?
+
I have seen people giving birth to kids without any pain. In Madhya Pradesh of India, Central India, a group of tribal villagers are living. I had a chance to live with them. I Myself saw, they give birth to kids without any pain. No pain, no assistance, no medicine, no attendant, nothing. No doctor. Just like that they give birth to kids and they take care of themselves. I was shocked. I asked them, “How could this be possible? Don't you have pain?” They asked Me, “Pain? Why? Why should we have pain?” The very idea pain don't exist in their life. The very idea of pain is not there. When that word or idea is not there, you don't suffer that. We suffer only what we again and again recall, remember or repeat. Anything again and again repeated by you, recalled by you becomes reality. That becomes solid truth, reality for your being.
 +
 +
(11:39)
  
In two ways:
+
If you think, “I tried to drop the past, I am not able to.” These words again and again when it is repeated inside your system, you decide you can't drop the past, you can't drop, you can't achieve it. The difficulty is, when you decide something solid, you collect arguments only to support that judgment. Whenever you decide something solid, whenever you have some judgment about yourself, you collect the arguments only to support that judgment. You don't think of anything else. You don't bother about anything else. All you do is, again and again you create more and more incidences, you create more and more arguments to support only your judgment. Anything you believe, you make it more strong, you make it more strong. We never enter into the reality. We create a big wall between reality and ourself.
- If we review our past decisions with our updated present
+
intelligence, you will always create guilt in you.
+
(12:58)
- Similarly, if we carry the past references into the present
 
decisions, we will duplicate the same mistakes from the past,
 
into the future.
 
  
Please understand these two things:
+
One side, all the spiritual mystics and masters again and again declaring whatever is, is bliss, whatever is, is consciousness, whatever is, is energy. The other side, the so-called normal people again and again they say whatever is, is misery, whatever is, is suffering, whatever is, is troubling us. Where is the gap? Why the same word looks so beautiful for Buddha and so miserable for buddhu? Very difficult. You can't give any logical reason. The same world, same lifestyle, same country, everything is same. Except the person, everything is same.. When you have the past, you have a layer called reactive mind. You don't take logical decision. Please be very clear, the man who carries the past can never take any logical decision. You see, for example, if you are disturbed by somebody who was wearing yellow colour dress ten years ago, that becomes a deep print in you. Anytime you see anybody with yellow color dress, you will remember that. Unconsciously that memory will come up and you try to keep away from that person. You start your judgment in negative way. Then if that person proves to be really genuine, then you go near. It takes more effort and more energy for you to understand that person just because of your past experience.
- If you review your past incidents or decisions using the
+
present intelligence, you will create guilt in your Being.
+
(14:56)
- If you take the present decisions based on past experiences,
 
you will be replicating the same past into the future also;
 
maybe in a little updated fashion.
 
  
Even though you might not commit the exact same mistake, possibly
+
Anybody who carries past, the reactive mind.... Let Me give you a small example to understand whether we have reactive mind or not. If you are just sitting and lost in thinking, suddenly you remember something which you don't want to remember, some place or some person, some situation in which you are disturbed, you are abused, you don't want to remember, suddenly it comes in your memory but you don't want that.... to remember that. Immediately you just brush that aside. You say, “Let me just think of something else, let me think of something else.” You come back and you change the course of your thinking. If you are doing this, be very clear, you have something called reactive mind. These memories which you don't want to think or with which you are not comfortable is what I call energy clot. Just like a blood clot, energy clot. See, when blood clots, the blood can't flow freely. Same way, these are the energy clots which does not allow your thinking flow freely.
by doing it a little differently, you will be moving in the same
+
experiential level, in the same layer, in the same plane.
+
(16:16)
We do not have the intelligence to keep thinking of new ways to
 
commit mistakes. Our mind falls into a groove, a track, a mind set,
 
that forces it to do what it always has done. So we keep making the
 
same mistakes as well.
 
  
However, instead of learning from the past experiences, learning from
+
The person who has more energy clots will always feel suffocated, stressed, bound. Person who doesn't have energy clots, his thinking will be so free, his consciousness will be so free, he will never feel that he is bound, stressed or suffocated. It is the energy clots which decide whether you will experience the boundarylessness or expansion or you suffocate yourself and continuously get stressed. I have seen people, even sitting in beach and getting suffocated. They will be sitting in beach or their so-called vacation but they will not be just in that boundaryless experience. They will not be in that the expanding experience.
our mistakes and rewiring our mind to do better the next time, what
 
we invariably do is to regret what we have done in the past and feel
 
guilty. Feeling guilty does not solve our problems. To feel guilty is to
 
be in sin. In fact that is the only sin. The hell that we talk about is not
 
in another time and space. It is here with us when we feel guilty
 
without doing anything to change our mindset.
 
  
When we do something that turns out differently from what we
+
(17:10)
expected, or against societal and religious codes, there may be
 
repercussions and we feel guilty. We should understand that what we
 
did was based on the wisdom that we had at that particular pint in
 
time and we should move on. There is no need to wallow in false guilt
 
without any effort to change the pattern our thinking and pattern of
 
our behavior.
 
  
The past is after all dead. Whatever you think of as You is just Dead.
 
When I say ‘Drop’, just disconnect from your past.
 
  
You can! You can disconnect!

==Title==
  
Yet we always bring one more sentence into our mind: “No, I have
 
tried so many times, but I am not able to. How can I disconnect from
 
the past?”
 
  
When you say "I have tried so many times, I am not able to.", again

part of the past. “I tried”, “I am not able to”, “I failed”, etc. were also
 
past experiences. As long as you bring these in, how can you say that
 
you have dropped the past? No! That's you dragging in more of the
 
past.
 
  
When you bring the past in again and again, into your life, into your
 
present life, you live in the same mental setup. In Sanskrit, we call it

which was impossible, and naturally you would have failed. These
 
failures get recorded in you, in such a deep way, as such a deep
 
impression, that again and again, you bring only your failures up to
 
your mind, and you start thinking "No, No, I cannot! I cannot drop the
 
past! It is too big a job for me. I am not so courageous." You bring
 
these words again and again into your Consciousness.

Consciousness. That will become alive, just like a movie reel does in
 
front of a projector.
 
  
Whatever slide you bring in front of a projector, that slide becomes

When we drop, we raise to the ultimate energy
reality. If you bring a slide of a temple, you will see that temple in
 
reality. If you bring a slide of a church, you will see that church in
 
reality. If you bring a slide of an actor, you will see that actor in
 
reality.
 
  
Any slide which you bring in front of the projector lamp becomes
 
reality. Similarly, any word, which you bring in front of your
 
Consciousness becomes reality. Any Word!
 
  
You can realize this clearly in the dream state. Imagine the early
 
morning, when you are just coming out of your sleep. You are lying in
 
bed, neither completely taken over by sleep, nor are you completely
 
aware. It’s almost a half-half state. At that time, if you just remember,
 
or be aware of your dreams, you can see very clearly, how the words
 
coming into your mind are becoming visions; are becoming reality.
 
You might just have a word, an idea: "I see my friend coming into my
 
house", and you will see the whole thing happening in your dream. It
 
will be Word and Experience. If you experience this early morning
 
dream, you can understand what I say: just Words appearing into your
 
mind, and becoming a Vision or Experience.
 
  
Any word comes into your mind, gets the power, and it becomes
 
Experience.
 
  
I had a chance to live with a group of tribal villagers in Madhya
 
Pradesh in central India. I myself saw them give birth to kids without
 
any pain: no pain, no assistance, no medicine, no attendant, no
 
doctor, nothing. Without any fuss, they give birth to kids, and they
 
take care of themselves.
 
  
I was shocked. I asked them – ‘How is this possible? Don’t you

experience any pain?’ Their response: "Pain? Why should we have
 
pain?" The very idea of pain does not exist in their lives. Let me
 
repeat: the very idea of pain is not there in their lives.
 
When that word or idea is not there in your mind, you don’t suffer
 
that. We suffer only that which we recall, remember or repeat again
 
and again. Anything, which is again and again, repeated by you,
 
recalled by you, becomes reality. That becomes a solid truth, a reality
 
for your Being.
 
  
If you keep thinking "I tried to drop the past, I am not able to", these
 
words get repeated again and again inside your system. You decide
 
you cannot drop the past. You cannot drop; you just cannot achieve it.
 
  
The difficulty is, when you decide something solid, you collect
 
arguments only to support that judgment. Whenever you decide
 
something solid, whenever you have some judgment about yourself,
 
you collect the arguments only to support that judgment. You don’t
 
think of anything else; you don’t bother about anything else. All you
 
do is, again and again, you create more and more incidents, you
 
create more and more arguments only to support your judgment.
 
Anything you believe, you make it stronger, and you cling more to it.
 
We never enter into reality; we create a big void between reality and
 
ourselves.
 
  
On the one side, all the spiritual Mystics and Masters declare again and
 
again: "Whatever IS, is Bliss! Whatever IS, is Consciousness!
 
Whatever IS, is Energy!"
 
  
On the other side, the so-called normal people, they say again and

reason. Their country is the same, their situation in life is the same,
 
their lifestyles are the same, everything is the same. Except the
 
person, everything else is the same, yet, their viewpoints about the
 
world are different.
 
  
When you carry your past, you have a layer called a reactive mind.

You do not take logical decisions.
 
  
Please be very clear: A man who carries the past can never take any

I have seen people sitting in a small room their whole life. I have seen one person in my native place… he lives in my native place. For almost 35 years he lives in one 10 by 10 room; 35 years he stays in one 10 by 10 room. Nobody is binding him. He is considered or worshipped as an enlightened master. His name is called Tinnai swamigal. He’s a disciple of Ramana Maharishi. His story is beautiful story. Let me narrate his story.
logical decision.
+
He went to see Ramana Maharishi and he asked, “Bhagwan, how can I achieve the spiritual experience? How can I achieve enlightenment? Should I do puja? Should I do some worship? Should I do some repetition of the mantra? Should I chant some verses? What should I do? Should I meditate?”
 +
Bhagwan said, just very casually he said, “drop.” Very casual for him, just drop. This person is so sincere, simply he dropped, really he dropped. Something has dropped in him and he sat in a nearby room.
 +
From that time till today he is sitting exactly in that same room and living happily. Nobody is binding him. Nobody is asking him not to go out or anything. He just says, “No, I’m happy. I don’t feel like. If at all I feel like, I’ll go out.” Hundreds of people come there to see him. He is sitting there radiating the peace and bliss. He says, “I feel totally expanded. I am boundaryless, where can I go?” There are people who are sitting inside 10 by 10 room and feeling the boundaryless consciousness, experiencing the universal consciousness, and there are people who are lying in the beaches and feeling suffocated, stressed. Boundaryless experience has nothing to do with outer world. It is something to do with the number of energy clots you have, the reactive mind. When you drop the reactive mind, when you start directly relating with the existence your whole being is liberated.  
  
Let me give you an example. Say you were disturbed years ago by
+
[02:59]
somebody in a yellow dress. The incident created a deep imprint inside
 
you. You will recall it anytime you see somebody in a yellow dress.
 
Unconsciously that memory will come up, and you try to keep away
 
from that person. When you meet someone in a yellow dress, you
 
start with a negative judgment, and if the person proves to be really
 
genuine, then you open up. It takes you more effort and more energy
 
to understand that person, and it is all just because of your single past
 
experience.
 
  
This is what I mean when I say: anybody who carries the past has a

Somebody goes to a zen master and asks, “Master how can I achieve liberation?” He just, master just laughs and says, “Who has bound you? When did you get into the bondage?” Immediately the disciple just becomes enlightened.
reactive mind.
+
When I say the word ‘drop’ whatever you understand according to your Oxford dictionary just do that, that’s enough. Whatever you know by the word dropping, just drop. Whatever you think as your being or whatever you think as you, just drop that.
 +
The difficulty is we are afraid. That is the only property we have, asset we have. That is the only thing which we accumulated throughout our life. How to drop that? If we drop that, how to live? How to survive? How we can live? Holding what we can live? All we have is our past life and past experiences. How can we be alive if we drop the past?
  
Let me give you another small example to understand whether you
+
[04:23]
have a reactive mind or not. Say you are deep in thought, and
 
suddenly you recall something which you don’t want to remember:
 
some place, some person, or some situation in which you were
 
disturbed, in which you were abused. It comes up in your memory,
 
even though you don’t want to remember it.
 
Immediately you brush aside that thought. You say to yourself "Let me
 
think of something else; let me think of something else". You force
 
yourself to change the course of your thinking.
 
  
If you are doing this, be very clear: you have something that I call a
+
I tell you, when you drop the past, don't think the memory itself will disappear. Your emotional attachment to that memory will disappear. Actually when you drop the past you will be able to live in the present much more intense way, much more deep way, much more beautiful way. Again and again and again if you read all the great master's teachings it comes back to only one point, drop or fall. Fall in so that you can raise. An important thing, instead of falling in, many time we fall outside; means, falling for the things which is in the outer world or falling towards the outer world.
reactive mind.
+
Of course, whenever we fall towards the outer world naturally we will make only that as a reality. What, if you fall for anything you'll make that as a reality. That will become solid truth in your life. Whatever you think as truth you fall for that. Whatever you feel and fall, you make that as a truth. If you think the outer world is truth, you fall for that. If you fall for the outer world, you make that as a truth.  
  
These memories, which you don’t want to recall, or with which you are
+
[06:03]
not comfortable, are what I call energy clots; just like blood clots.
 
When there is a blood clot, blood cannot flow freely. In the same way,
 
these energy clots do not allow your thinking to flow freely. A person
 
who has got more energy clots will always feel suffocated; stressed;
 
bound. On the other hand, take a person who doesn’t have energy
 
clots. His thinking will be so free, his Consciousness will be so free,
 
that he will never feel suffocated, stressed or bound.
 
  
It is the energy clots which decide, whether you experience the

When you fall in, fall for the inner world, you make the inner world as a reality. When you make the inner world as a reality you fall more for the inner world. Now it is like a vicious circle. If you fall for the outer world you make this as a more reality and fall more for this, circle goes on. And if you fall for the inner world you make that as a reality and again fall more for it.

Whether you travel in this line or in this line, it is a thing which you're supposed to decide. Pravritti or Nivritti in sanskrit we call. Towards the ephemeral or towards the eternal.

When you drop the past, you simply travel towards the eternal. You travel towards the ultimate. You travel towards your being and you just remember what you are and what's your being.

a beach, on their so-called vacation, but they will not just be in that
 
boundary-less experience; they will not be in that expanding
 
experience.
 
  
I have also seen people, who are confined to a small room their whole

[07:25]
lives. There is a person in my native town, who has been living inside
 
a ten-by-ten room for the last thirty-five years. Thirty-five years!
 
Nobody is binding him. He is actually considered an Enlightened
 
Master and worshipped as such. His name is Thinnai Swamigal; he is a
 
disciple of Ramana Maharishi.
 
  
His is a beautiful story; let me narrate it. He went to see Ramana

Let me narrate a small story. There was a King ruling a country. He had a son who is a vagabond. Somehow the King was not happy with his attitude and life. So he just wanted to punish his son. So he told his son, "Leave this country. Go out, stay somewhere for ten years. If you're able to maintain yourself for ten years then I may take you back. Otherwise there is no possibility. Just get lost."
Maharishi, and asked "Bhagavan! How can I achieve the Spiritual

Anyhow he was sent out of the country. He was a Prince and he doesn't know anything else, how to maintain himself. All he knows is only to play some music or dance and who will give money for that? Surely he can't make enough money. So, he goes round begging from house to house, door to door. Ten years he was living in the same way.

After ten years suddenly this King remembered. Now it is time I should send my people to search for my son. Whether he has managed to survive or still he is alive. Let these guys go and find out. He sends all his people, "Go around, find where he is".
of worship? Should I do some type of mantra (a mantra is a sacred
 
utterance, usually a syllable, the invocation of a God, or a portion of a
 
scripture) repetition? Should I chant some verses? Should I meditate?
 
What should I do?"
 
  
Bhagavan casually said "Drop!" Just a very casual word: "Drop!" This

[09:21]
person was so sincere - simply he dropped. He really dropped.
 
Something just dropped inside him. From that time until today, he is
 
just sitting in a room nearby and living happily.
 
Nobody is binding him. Nobody is forbidding him from going out. He
 
just says "No. I am happy. I don’t feel like it. If at all I feel like it, I will
 
go". Hundreds of people come there to see him. He is sitting there,
 
radiating peace and bliss. He says "I feel totally expanded. I am
 
boundary-less. Where can I go?"
 
  
There are people who are sitting inside a ten-by-ten room, and feeling

One minister, he goes and finds this Prince. This guy was standing and begging somewhere on the roadside. The minister goes and touches the feet of the beggar and says, "Sir, do you remember? You're a Prince of our country, we wanted you to come back. The King wants you now back, please come back."

The whole body language changed, whole tone, the whole mental setup, everything is changed. Got into that chariot, went to the palace and his whole mental setup is totally different. He can never associate himself again, he was never able to associate himself again with his old past. His lifestyle, body language, mentality, thinking setup, everything is now new. It did not take too much time for him, he did not ask the minister, "How can I change, drop my past? How can I change my mental setup?" No. Just one moment the whole cognitive shift has happened.  
feeling suffocated and stressed. The experience of boundarylessness
 
has nothing to do with the outer world. It has to do with the number of
 
energy clots that you have; the reactive mind that you have. When
 
you drop the reactive mind, when you start directly relating with
 
Existence, your whole being is liberated.
 
  
Somebody went to a Zen master, and asked "Master, how can I
+
[11:04]
achieve liberation?" The Master just laughed, and said "Who has bound
 
you? When did you get into bondage?" Immediately, the disciple just
 
became enlightened.
 
  
When I say the word ‘Drop’, whatever you understand according to

Really the cognitive shift takes only one moment, one second. All you need to do is to believe, the Kingdom of God or the Heaven is straightaway available to us and open your eyes, start living. This very land can become heaven. This very life can become heaven. This very life can become Kingdom of God. Only all you need to do is, now you collect, now you connect all the negative incidents of your life and create an idea about yourself and the world. Instead of that, connect all the cosmic incidents of your life and create an idea about yourself and the world. That's all, nothing else.
your own Oxford Dictionary, just do that - that is enough. Whatever
 
you know by the word "dropping", just do that. Whatever you think of
 
as your Being, or whatever you think of as You, just drop that.
 
The difficulty is that we are afraid. Our past experiences are the only
 
property that we have; our ideas of “I” are the only asset that we
 
have. These ideas are the only thing that we have accumulated
 
throughout our lives. How can we drop that? If we drop that, how do
 
we live? What can we hold on to, so that we may survive? All we have
 
is our past life and past experiences. How can we be alive, if we drop
 
them?
 
  
I tell you: when you drop the past, don’t think the memory itself will
+
[12:00]
disappear. Your emotional attachment to that memory will disappear.
 
Actually, when you drop the past, you will be able to live in the
 
present, in a much deeper way, in a much more intense way, in a
 
much more beautiful way.
 
  
Again and again and again, if you read the teachings of all the great

Be very clear, at least fifty percent in our life positive things are there. That is why still we are alive. If everything is completely negative we can't be alive. You being here that is enough proof at least fifty percent of your life is positive. You being here itself is enough proof at least we have fifty percent incidents, things, positive in our life. The difficulty is, our mental setup is such, we can't survive without worries and negativity.

Just scan your mental thinking. If you feel relaxed, open, empty sometimes, you feel uncomfortable. You start searching for some worries, something to think, something to ponder over, something to contemplate. You can't be alive in boundaryless consciousness. You continuously feel that you need something, some material to chew. You need something to chew. That is the reason you catch some subject. If you don't have any subject, if you're not able to catch any material you start thinking “How long the life will go like this smoothly? I don’t know when it will change. I don’t know when bad things will start.?” You start bothering about something else. Always we are habituated, trained, to connect all the negative things and create an idea about ourself and about the world.

Notice an important distinction here. Instead of falling in, many a
+
[13:43]
time, we fall outside, towards the outer world. What I mean by this is
 
that we fall for things which are in the outer world.
 
  
Of course, whenever you fall towards the outer world, naturally you

The way in which you judge yourself, please be very clear, you’ll be judging the world also in the same way. We never believe others are speaking truth because we never speak truth. You can always see, you always think, “when I am like this naturally he’ll also be like that only. When I live like this naturally he will also be like that only.” You judge everybody else the same way you judge yourself.

Bible says God created man in his own mould. I tell you one more thing, man creates the world in his own mould. God creates the world, God created man in his own mould. I tell you one thing: man create the world in his own mould.

Whatever you think as you, you create the same world. You project the same world. Any idea which you create about yourself that plays a major role about your, your idea about the world. It is you who create and project. It is you who experience.  
  
Whatever you fall for, you will make that as your reality. That will

[15:05]
become a solid truth in your life. Whatever you think of as truth, you
 
will fall for that. Whatever you feel and fall for, you will make that as
 
your truth.

The difficulty is we never give so much of gap between ourself and our thinking system. You are too much associated, caught up with the thinking system. You never suspect it. You never suspect your thinking system and perception. You never doubt. You doubt everybody else but never yourself. You doubt everybody else but never yourself.
fall for the outer world, you make that as your truth.

Before satisfaction of any desire your mind says something. Once you achieve that desire your mind says totally opposite. But even though it is your experience again and again and again you never suspect your mind. You never doubt your mind. Before achieving you think about that object in a different way. Before achieving even the mustard seed looks like a mountain. Without that you can’t be alive. especially when you read this Skymall magazine you feel as if you can’t be alive without those products. They write and advertise in such a wonderful way, you feel they are basic needs. Before achieving even a mustard seed looks like a mountain once you achieve even mountain looks like a mustard seed.  
  
- When you fall in, fall for the inner world, you make the inner

reality, you fall more for the inner world.
 
  
So this is like a vicious circle: if you fall for the outer world, you make

Again and again your mind cheats you. You run, run, run, run, run, to achieve something, the moment you achieve the whole thing is empty; but you never suspect your mind.

If the moment you start doubting your idea about yourself and your idea about the world, you drop. You just drop. The doubt is more than enough, the very doubt is enough to give you the courage to drop. As long as we don’t doubt our understandings we go on, go on, go on.  
world. And if you fall for the inner world, you make that as your
 
reality, and again, this leads you to fall more for the inner world.
 
Either way, the circle goes on.
 
  
Which way you want to travel in is in your hands; this is what you are

[17:31]
supposed to decide in life. We call this pravritti or nivritti in Sanskrit.
 
Our choice is either towards the ephemeral, or towards the eternal. It
 
is our decision, whether to travel towards the pravritti, towards the
 
ephemeral, or towards the nivritti, towards the eternal.
 
  
When you drop the past, you simply travel towards the Eternal. You

She asks a beautiful question, “your dream and this world both are seen by your brain in a equal, same way. Then how can you say this is reality and that is dream? Or that is dream and this is reality?” They create basic doubts which is supposed to be created in every individual, in every human being. The moment you enter into this doubt you drop. When you drop you really raise. When you fall in, you raise. Raise to the ultimate experience, ultimate consciousness what they call divine, God or universal intelligence or cosmic energy.  
just remember what you are, and what actually is your Being.

So I pray to that ultimate energy, the cosmic energy, let us all fall in to it and become the divine energy, that eternal bliss, Nithyananda. Thank you.  
  
Let me narrate a small story: there was a King, who ruled over his
+
[19:06]
country. He had a son, who was a vagabond. The King was long
 
unhappy about the Prince’s attitude and lifestyle. Pushed to the end of
 
his tether, he decided to teach his son a lesson. So he told his son
 
"Leave this country! Go out and stay somewhere else for ten years. If
 
you are able to maintain yourself for ten years, then I might take you
 
back.”
 
  
So the Prince was sent out of the country. He was the Prince, so he
 
could sing, dance and enjoy himself, and didn’t know much of anything
 
else. So he moved around begging from house to house, door to door.
 
  
The ten years stated in the King’s condition passed in this way. The

begging by the roadside. The minister approaches him, touches the
 
beggar’s feet and says, "Sir! Do you remember us? You are the Prince
 
of our country. The King wants you to come back. The citizens want
 
you to come back. Please come back."
 
  
The moment the minister touched his feet, the beggar's whole body
 
language changed. He had been a beggar until that moment. The
 
moment the minister touched his feet, he said "Oh! Is that so? Alright.
 
Get my chariot!" The man’s whole body language changed: beginning
 
with his tone, and extending all the way to his mental setup. He
 
climbed into the chariot, and strode majestically into the palace.
 
  
His mental setup is now completely different from what it was when he

Be very clear: there are positive things in at least 50% of everyone’s
 
life. That is why we are still alive. If everything is completely negative,
 
we can’t even live. Your being here now, your being here to read this

of some subject or another and start pondering. If you cannot find any
 
subject, if you are not able to re-hash any material, you start fearing

idea about yourself and about the world.
 
  
Please be very clear: we judge the world in exactly the same way in

[00:00:40]
which we judge ourselves.
 
  
We never believe that others are speaking the truth, because we never

speak the truth.
+
“He is saying, the world is going faster and faster. What impact does this have on our ability to drop?”
 +
Swamiji: Oh, the more faster, difficult to drop. Because you get more information and too much of stress. So much of processing is going on, you forget to question the basic things. See one important thing. When everybody is engaged in so much of work, you forget to question the whole system. You have no time to question the basic system. Because so much of load is there, to be finished, to be done, to be accomplished. Where is the time to question the basic questions? Where is the time to raise the basic doubts?
 +
That is why in India the first thing they do is, in their education system, to raise the basic doubts. Till the age of 25, nobody can take up any job, they have to raise all the basic doubts and live with it. And question again and again, such ... Only when they achieve the balance of discovering the answer into their being, only then they are allowed to enter into the life, whether to marriage, or to earning, making money. Till the age of 25, it is called the period of Brahmacharya, means studying, living with existence, living with doubts, searching in your Self. Of course, the more the speed, less the possibility of dropping. You can drop out, not drop in.  
  
You can always see that you always think: “When I am like this,
+
[00:03:04]
naturally the other person will also be like that only. When I live like
 
this, naturally he will also be like that only”. You judge everybody else
 
the same way in which you judge yourself.
 
  
The Bible says "God created Man in his own mould". I tell you one
+
Yes.
more thing: Man creates the World in his own mould.

Question: "Are there many phases to this 'dropping in'? Like, talked about one phase, this person who is living in a ten- by-ten bedroom ”
  
To reiterate: God creates Man in his own mould; Man creates the
+
Swamiji: Yes, there are many phases. See, when you 'drop in' what happens after that is very ... totally different, but 'dropping in' is only one thing. Once you 'drop in' then what happens when you raise, it raises in a thousands of ways. Somebody goes around the world and preaches; somebody just sings and dances like Mira, somebody sits under the Banyan tree like a Buddha, somebody just walks naked like a Mahadeva; there are so many expressions, after 'dropping in'. But the 'dropping in' is common for everybody. After that, when you raise, you raise in thousands of ways. See, Ramana Maharshi himself never sat in one ten-by-ten room. He went round in the whole city, that at least in that city, he never went out of that city, inside the city he was walking and living around. But his disciple was sitting inside one room. So each one has got their own method of express. Buddha was quiet and silent, peaceful; Krishna was singing and dancing. So, it’s totally based on individual’s experience.  
World in his own mould.
 
  
Whatever you think of as “You”, you create the world in the same

[00:04:32]
mould. You project the same world. Whatever idea you create about
 
yourself, that idea also plays a major role about your idea of the
 
world. It is you who create and project, it is you who experience.
 
  
The difficulty is, we never leave any separation between ourselves and

our thinking systems. We are much too associated, much too caught

up with our thinking system, we never begin to suspect it. We never
+
Swamiji: I think you must take little time to doubt the basic conclusions. The other day I read a beautiful book "Final theory". The book "Final Theory", if you have read that book you will... The basic ideas about the gravity, Newton's law, Einstein's theory, everything is questioned. Everything is questioned. And actually, when I read that book, really I was shocked, how did we miss such basic things? When we accepted Newton's theory, or Einstein's theory of relativity, we felt almost everything, at least I felt when I read all those things, I felt everything is answered. Everything is in place. But when I read this one book "Final Theory" the whole thing is shaken now. There was so many basic questions we've not raised at all.
suspect our thinking system and our perceptions. We never doubt. We
+
So before going further, we must raise some basic questions. We must have time to doubt the basic things. And we can't put the responsibility on the society ‘It is speeding up, it is this, it is that, I can't.’ Of course, when you say you can't, you will go with it, no problem. But if at all you want the truth, the ultimate experience, or if at all you are really in such a bliss... See, there are two things we are searching... See, some people are searching the status, some state. If you want the state of mind, blissful state of mind, okay. Or if you are searching for status, you can run with this speed. Status is different, state is different. If the state comes, status will follow. If the status comes, you can't be sure that state will follow, state will follow. So, if you really want to achieve that state of bliss, you have to question the basic assumptions which you made.
doubt everybody else, but never ourselves.

Yes.
  
You doubt everybody else, but never yourself.

[00:06:57]
  
Before satisfying any desire, your mind says something. Once you
+
Question: “Swamiji, what are the steps 'to drop'? You just said 'Drop'. How do we empower the mind to drop?”
achieve that desire, your mind says something the exact opposite.
+
Swamiji: The first step is to drop this idea. Mind really empower you. “Mind is too difficult.” “I did so many times, mind never accepts.” These are ideas which you've given so much of strength to these ideas. Just try to relax from these ideas. Decide for next 10 days: I will not repeat these ideas into my mind. I will not allow these words to come in my mind. Just for 10 days. Just for 10 days don't give power or strength to these words. “It is very difficult to drop Swamiji”, “you don't know”, “you say it is very easy but doing is very difficult”, “I have tried many times, it is very solid”, “mind is very complicated.” Just don't give power for these words for 10 days. Ten days repeat "No. Mind can be dropped. After all, I am thinking". Nobody else is sitting in you and thinking, na! I mean, are you sure that nobody else is sitting inside you and thinking? You are only sitting and thinking. When you are sitting and thinking, why can't you change? It’s after all you. It is you who create the word, word by word and create a sentence. Moment the first word comes, catch it. Why do you allow the whole sentence to come out then you go around "Oh, this is difficult, this is difficult, this is difficult"? Moment the first word comes, catch. Say "Stop. Ten days I am going to give you leave, holiday." So just from today, ten days decide: For next ten days, I will not give power to these words. And after tenth day it will never come back, I tell you.  
Even though this is your experience again and again and again, you
 
never suspect your mind. You never doubt your mind.
 
  
Before achieving it, you think about an object in a specific way. Before

[00:08:54]
achieving, even the mustard seed looks like a mountain. You desire
 
the object; you cannot live without it. I was browsing the SkyMall
 
Magazine on my flight here. They word the product advertisements in
 
such a wonderful way, that you feel that those products are basic
 
needs. You feel as if you cannot be alive without those products.

I tell you, because I am working with thousands of people. I am working with not only thousands, I can say lakhs. In last two years, I have met 250 000, means, two and a half lakh how do you say here? Quarter million. Quarter million. 250,000 people I've met individually. I have 2000 healers doing healing service in 400 centres, in 20 countries. With all my experience I tell you, I have seen at least 10000 people like you, who ask this question, same question. All the 10000 can drop. And there are many thousands who are successful. Just for 10 days, not more than that, I am not asking you more than that. Just for next ten days decide: I will not repeat these words and give power to these words. Just these are words, pure words and it is you who create words, self-contradicting words and get into the trouble, and it is purely words.

You are always hitting yourself with a second person and third person. Means, the outer world, you never look into the first person to see you are liberated. First of all, there is no first-person.

All your fears, your worries, your feeling of separateness is built on the idea of your being first-person, your idea of that "I - first-person". The first-person itself doesn't exist. He is not there as you think. As you think he is not there. Just turn in and see he is not there. Then why do you need to liberate yourself from the second-person and the third-person? There is no need. But as long as you’re hitting your head, against the second-person and the third-person you will never be liberated. It's like you are hitting your head on the wall. You can never be liberated. The moment you turn in and see, the moment you fall in, you will see that there is no first-person. You are just fighting with your concepts. You are just fighting with your assumed fears, assumed boundaries, assumed anxieties. The fear of separateness is nothing but… the concept is just based on, built on the concept that you are somebody. When you look, you will understand you are not as you think.

Swamiji: I can help you in two ways. One is, try to drop that word pain and start seeing the whole thing as something new experience. If you are feeling painful somewhere, just see, what is happening in that area. Like a child seeing, when a child sees something new, how curious it is. Same way look at that thing in a very curious way. That's the first step. The next, I will try to help you by healing, after the class. Both I think, hope, it will help you.

Questions & Answers
+
[00:13:51]
  
Q: Can you talk a little bit about the issue of speed? The world in
+
Yes.  
many contexts seems to be moving faster and faster and faster. What
+
Question: “This is a follow-up question to when You said that there are thousands of ways in which we can Rise after we Fall In. Some people laugh, some stay quiet etc. Is it compatible with what we do with our jobs after we Raise - can we still do the same thing every day?”
impact does this have on our Consciousness and our ability to drop?
 
 
 
A: The faster the world moves, the more difficult it is to drop. The
 
faster the world moves, the more information you get. You are
 
processing much more information, and this also adds more stress.
 
Amidst all this processing, you forget to question the basics.
 
 
 
One important thing to note: when everybody is engaged in so much
 
of work, you forget to question the whole system. There is so much to
 
get done, to be accomplished, that you have no time to question the
 
basic premises underlying the system.
 
 
 
That is why, in India, the first thing they do in their traditional
 
education system, is to raise the basic doubts. Till the age of twenty
 
five, nobody can take up any job.
 
 
 
Each person will have to raise the basic doubts, and live with it. And
 
question again and again; search. Only when they achieve the balance
 
of discovering the answer unto themselves, into their Being, only then,
 
are they allowed to enter into life: whether into marriage, making
 
money, or anything else.
 
 
 
Till the age of twenty five, it is called the period of Brahmacharya. This
 
period means studying; living with the Existence; living with doubts;
 
searching in yourself.
 
 
 
Of course, the greater the speed the world is moving at, lesser is the
 
possibility of dropping.
 
 
 
You can drop Out, not drop In.
 
 
 
Q: Are there many phases to this dropping in, like you talked about
 
one phase, this person who is living in a ten-by-ten room.
 
 
 
A: Yes, there are many phases. Just see what happens when you drop
 
in.
 
 
 
What happens after you drop in, is manifold, totally different. But
 
dropping in is a common experience. Once you drop in, then whatever
 
happens when you rise, it raises in thousands of ways.
 
 
 
Somebody goes around the world and preaches. Somebody sings and
 
dances like Mira. Somebody sits under the banyan tree like a Buddha.
 
 
 
Somebody just walks around naked like a Mahavira. There are so
 
many expressions.
 
 
 
After dropping in.
 
 
 
But the dropping in is common for everybody. After that, when you
 
rise, you rise in myriads of ways. Ramana Maharishi himself never sat
 
inside a ten-by-ten room. He moved around within the whole city, at
 
least inside that city; he never went outside the city. But his disciple
 
was sitting inside one room.
 
 
 
So each one has his own method of expression. Buddha was quiet and
 
silent; peaceful. Krishna was singing and dancing. So, it’s totally based
 
on the individual's experience.
 
 
 
Q: Things are speeding up so much that we cannot drop. In general,
 
everything seems to be moving faster, that it almost seems like it is by
 
design that we should not drop.
 
 
 
A: I think you must take a little time to doubt the basic conclusions.
 
The other day I read a beautiful book "The Final Theory". If you have
 
read that book, you might have been just as surprised as I was. The
 
basic ideas about the gravity, Newton's Law, Einstein's Theory:
 
everything is questioned. Everything is questioned. I was shocked:
 
how did we miss such basic questions about these theories?
 
 
 
When we accepted Newton's Theory, or Einstein's Theory of Relativity,
 
we felt that almost everything, at least I felt that almost everything
 
was answered. That everything was in place. But when I read this one
 
book "Final Theory", my understandings, my ideas are shaken. It
 
turns out that there are so many basic scientific questions which we
 
have not raised at all.
 
 
 
So, before going further we must raise some basic questions. We must
 
take the time to doubt the basic ideas. We cannot put the
 
responsibility on society saying “It is speeding up, it affects me in this
 
way or that way, so I cannot.”
 
 
 
Of course, when you say that you cannot, you will go along with it - no
 
problem. But if at all you want the truth, the Ultimate Experience, if at
 
all you are really in search of bliss, you must raise these questions.
 
See there are two things that we are all searching for: some people
 
are searching for the status, some for the state. If you are searching
 
for the status, you can run with the speed.
 
 
 
Status is different; state is different. If the state comes, status will
 
follow. If the status comes, you cannot be sure that the state will
 
follow. So, if you really want to achieve the state of bliss, you have to
 
question the basic assumptions which you have made.
 
 
 
Q: Swami, what are the steps to drop? You just said "Drop". How do
 
we empower the mind to drop?
 
 
 
A: The first step is to drop this idea. The mind will then empower you.
 
“Mind is too difficult;
 
 
 
I have tried this so many times, mind never accepts;”
 
 
 
All these are just ideas to which you have given such strength. Just try
 
to relax from these ideas.
 
 
 
Decide: “For the next ten days, I will not repeat these ideas into my
 
mind. I will not allow these words to come in my mind.”
 
 
 
Just for ten days. Just for ten days, don’t give any power or strength
 
to these words: “It is very difficult to drop, Swamiji. You don’t know.
 
Saying is very easy, but doing is very difficult. I have tried many
 
times. It is very solid. Mind is very complicated.”
 
 
 
Just don’t give power to these words for ten days. For ten days, repeat
 
"No! The mind can be dropped. After all it is I who is thinking."
 
 
 
To be sure, are you clear that nobody else is sitting inside you and
 
thinking? You are the one who is sitting and thinking. When you are
 
sure that it is you who is sitting and thinking, why can’t you change? It
 
is after all you. It was you who created your world, your perceptions of
 
weakness, word by word, sentence by sentence.
 
 
 
The moment the first word comes in your thoughts, just catch it. Why
 
do you allow the whole sentence to come out? Then you go around
 
bemoaning "Oh! This is difficult! This is difficult! This is difficult!" The
 
moment the first word comes out, catch it. Just say “Stop! For ten
 
days I am packing you off on a holiday!”
 
 
 
So just from today, for ten days decide: “For the next ten days, I will
 
not give power to these words.”
 
 
 
I tell you: after the tenth day, these thoughts will never come back. I
 
tell you, because I am working with thousands of people. In the last
 
two years, I have met close to a quarter million people individually.
 
And I have two thousand healers doing healing service in four hundred
 
centers in twenty countries.
 
 
 
With all my experience I tell you: I have seen at least ten thousand
 
people like you who ask this question. Exactly the same question! All
 
the ten thousand can drop. And there are many thousands who are
 
successful.
 
 
 
Just for ten days, not more than that. I am not asking you for anything
 
more than that. Just for the next ten days decide: “I will not repeat
 
these words and give power to these words.”
 
 
 
All these are just words, pure words.
 
 
 
And it is you who create the words, self-contradicting words, and get
 
into trouble.
 
 
 
All of it is purely words.
 
 
 
You go and face the corner of a room, where the two walls meet, and
 
you cry "Oh! I am in a prison! I am in a prison! I am caught! I am
 
caught!" You never turn and see the third side; you never turn and see
 
that the room is actually wide-open.
 
 
 
You never take the time to turn around to another side, and see that
 
you are free. You are liberated.
 
 
 
You are always hitting yourself with the second person and third
 
person; you are always looking at the outer world, at everything else
 
other than yourself, the “I”, the first person. You never look into the
 
first person to see that you are liberated.
 
 
 
First of all, there is no First Person. You always hit your face in the
 
second person and the third person; and you think that you are bound.
 
Just turn around: there is no First Person.
 
 
 
Neither are you bound, nor do you need liberation.
 
 
 
All your fears, your worries, your feeling of separateness are built on
 
your idea of being the First Person; your idea of "I"; your idea of the
 
First person.
 
 
 
The First Person itself doesn’t exist. He is not there in the way you
 
think. Please be very clear: In the way you think, He is not there.
 
 
 
Just turn in, and see! He is not there. Then why do you need to
 
liberate yourself from the Second Person and the Third Person? There
 
is no need.
 
 
 
But as long as you are hitting your head against the Second Person
 
and the Third Person, you will never be liberated. It’s like you are
 
hitting your head on the wall: you can never be liberated. The moment
 
you turn in and see, the moment you fall in, you will see that there is
 
no First Person.
 
 
 
You are just fighting with your concepts. You are just fighting with
 
your assumed fears; your assumed boundaries; your assumed
 
anxieties. The fear of separateness is nothing but a concept - it is just
 
based on, built on the concept that you are somebody.
 
 
 
When you look, you will understand: you are not as you think.
 
 
 
Q: I am in constant physical pain for the past 5 years. Can you help?
 
 
 
A: I can help you in two ways.
 
 
 
The first is: try to drop that word 'pain' and start seeing the whole
 
thing as a new experience. If you are feeling pain somewhere, just see
 
what is happening in that area? Like a child sees.
 
 
 
How curious a child is, when it sees something new? In the same way,
 
look at the pain and the area in a very curious way. That is the first
 
step.
 
 
 
The next, I will try to help you by healing after the class.
 
Both of these will help you.
 
 
 
Q: This is a follow-up question to when you said that there are
 
thousands of ways in which we can Rise, after we Fall In. Some people
 
laugh, some stay quiet, etc. Is it possible for us to do the same things
 
that we are doing every day?
 
 
 
A: Of course! You will do the same thing every day, but in a different
 
way. A much better way, that’s all.
 
 
 
Your energy will not be sucked in, as it is currently, by your
 
psychological worrying. Right now, up to 80% of your inner chattering
 
is taken away by unnecessary worrying.
 
 
 
Try this simple experiment: Speak whatever comes to your mind for
 
ten minutes, and record it. Whatever comes up, don’t edit it. Just
 
record it as such. Then transcribe the tape; write it down. Read the
 
page.
 
  
You will find that not even 10% of what you have written will be
+
[00:14:17]
directly related to your life, or is going to help you. Not even 10% of
 
your thoughts will be directly related to your life.
 
  
You will find that something is simply going on in your mind. It is

Swamiji: Of course, you will do the same thing every day but in a different way, much better way, that's all. Because you will not, your energy will not be sucked, as it is sucked now by your psychological worrying. As on now, 80% of your inner chattering is taken away by unnecessary worrying. If you just do this simple experiment: Speak whatever comes to your, comes to your mind for 10 minutes and record it. Whatever comes, don't edit, just speak out and record it. Then transcribe that tape. Transcribe it, write it down, read that page. Not even 10% will be directly related to your life or going to help you. Not even 10% of the thoughts will be directly related to your life. Simply something will be going on in your mind. And it is almost like running an asylum, lunatic asylum inside.  
almost like running a lunatic asylum. Each sense is pulling the mind in
 
different directions; there are so many different kinds of thoughts. You
 
don’t even realize this most of the time.

Each sense is pulling itself, so many different kinds of thoughts, you don't even know. But once you drop the past, once you start living in the present, once you start experiencing the consciousness, the wasting energy will not be there. You will not be drained so easily. We are drained so easily, because even to take a single decision you have to move your file through ten thousand tables. Ten thousand, ten thousands of your energy clots has to say yes, only then you will take, you will be able to take one decision. If the energy clots are removed, you will be able to take that same decision in a single second.  
have to move your file through ten thousand tables. Thousands and
 
thousands of your energy clots have to say yes. Only then, only then
 
will you take, will you be able to take a single decision. If the energy
 
clots are removed, you will be able to make that same decision in a
 
split second.

The other day, the doctor Collins, that is his name, Collins was doing a research on my neurological system, just three days ago, in St. Louis. He was associated with the, some University he was working and he was doing a research on my brain, what happens at the time of meditation. And he says this right brain is so active, many, many times more than left-brain, and he says "Swamiji, the informations in your brain will be processed so easily and so quickly, if the left-brain takes minutes to process some information, right-brain takes only fraction of second to process that same information, same information, and simply you will be giving decisions, without any worry.” And he says one more thing: “The right-brain is more related to the global thinking and timeless zone." You will be continuously experiencing the timeless awareness. Which is the greatest freedom.  
active than the left brain. He says, "Swamiji! The information in your
 
brain will be processed so easily and so quickly. If the left brain takes
 
minutes to process some information, the right brain takes only
 
fraction of a second to process that same information. The same
 
information. And you will simply be making decisions, without any
 
worry.”
 
 
 
He also says: "The right brain is more related to the global thinking
 
and timeless zone. You will be continuously experiencing the timeless
 
awareness, which is the greatest freedom".
 
 
 
Time-bound awareness or space-bound awareness is what we call
 
bondage. We call this Bandha in Sanskrit. Bondage. Timeless
 
awareness and spaceless awareness is what I call Mukti in Sanskrit.
 
Enlightenment. Liberation.
 
 
 
So all you need to do is to drop the past, and you will find that you will
 
be able to do your job in a much better way, a much more creative
 
way, a much more beautiful way, a much more spontaneous way, and
 
a much more responsible way.
 
 
 
This ability to take spontaneous decisions is what I call responsibility.
 
If you are able to take spontaneous decisions, you are responsible.
 
You have responsibility.

1. Question: “Could you talk a little bit about the issues of the world in many contexts, it seems to be faster and faster and faster. And what impact does this have on our Consciousness and our ability to drop ahm...?”
 
“He is saying, the world is going faster and faster and faster, what is the impact of this living have on our Consciousness?”
 
Oh, the more faster, difficult to drop. Because you get more information and too much of stress. So much of processing is going on, you forget to question the basic things. See one important thing. When everybody is engaged in so much of work, you forget to question the whole system. You have no time to question the basic system. Because so much of load is there, to be finished, to be done, to be accomplished. Where is the time to question final, basic questions? Where is the time to rise the basic doubts?
 
(01:49)
 
That is why in India the first thing they do is, in their education system, to raise the basic values. Till the age of 25, nobody can take up any job they have to raise all the basic doubts and live with it. And question again and again, such... Only when they achieve the balance of discovering the answer into their being only they are allowed to enter into the life whether to marriage, or to earning, making money. Till the age of 25, it is called the period of Brahmacharya, means studying, living with the Existence, living with doubts, searching in yourself Of course, the more the...speed less the possibility of dropping. You can drop out, not drop in.
 
 
 
(03:04)
 
Yes
 
Question 2: "There are there many phases to this 'dropping in'? Like, you talked about one phase, this person who is living in a ten- by-ten bedroom.”
 
 
 
Yes, there are many phases. See, when you 'drop in' what happens after that is very... totally different, but 'dropping in' is only one thing. The one... Once you 'drop in' then what happens when you raise, it raises in a thousands of ways. Somebody goes around the world and preaches; somebody just sings and dances like Mira, somebody sits under the Banyan tree like a Buddha, somebody just walks naked like Mahadeva; there are so many expressions, after 'dropping in'. But the 'dropping in' is common for everybody. After that, when you raise, you raise in thousands of ways See, Ramana Maharshi himself never sat in one ten-by-ten room. He went on in the whole city, that at least in that city, he never went out of that city, inside the city, he was talking and living around. But his disciple was sitting inside one room. So each one has got there own internal express. Buddha was quiet and silent, peaceful; Krishna was singing and dancing. So... is totally based on individual experience.
 
(04:32)
 
Yes.
 
Question 3: “It sounds like this is by design, that things are speeding up so much so we cannot 'drop'.”
 
I think you must take a little time. to ac... doubt the basic conclusions. The other day I read a beautiful book "Final Theory". The book "Final Theory", if you read that book you will... The basic ideas about the gravity, Newton's law, Einstein's theory, everything is questioned. Everything is questioned. And actually, when I read that book really I was shocked how did we miss such basic things? When we accepted Newton's theory, or Einstein's theory of gravity, we felt almost everything, at least I felt when I read all those things, I felt everything is answered. everything is in place. But when I read this one book "Final Theory" the whole thing is shaken now. There was so many basic questions we've not raised at all. So before going further we must raise some basic questions. We must have time to doubt, the basic things. And we can't put a responsibility on the society. speeding up, it is this, it is that, I can't. Of course, when you say you can't you will go with it, no problem. But if at all, you want the truth, the ultimate experience, or if at all, you are really in such a Bliss... See there are two things we are searching,... see some people are searching the status, some state. If you want the state of mind, Blissful state of mind, okay. Or if you are searching for a status you can run with this speed. Status is different, state is different. If the state comes, status will follow. If the status comes you can't be sure that state will follow. State will follow. So, if you really want to achieve that state of Bliss you have to question the basic assumptions which you made.
 
(7:03)
 
Yes.
 
Question 4: “Swami, what are the steps 'to drop'? You just said 'Drop'. How do we empower the mind to drop?”
 
The first step is to drop this idea. Mind really empower you. Mind is too difficult. I did so many times mind never accepts. These are ideas which you've given so much of strength to these ideas. Just try to relax from these ideas. Decide for the next 10 days: I will not repeat these ideas into my mind. I will not allow these words to come in my mind. Just for 10 days. Just for 10 days don't give power or strength to these words. It is very difficult to 'drop' Swamiji, you don't you say is very easy but doing is very difficult, I have tried many times it is very solid, mind is very complicated. Just don't give power for these words for 10 days. Ten days repeat "No mind can be 'dropped'", after all, I am thinking", nobody else is sitting in you and thinking, nha! I mean are you sure that nobody else is sitting inside you and thinking? You are only sitting and thinking. When you are sitting and thinking why can't you change. It’s after all you who create the word, word by word and create a sentence. Moment the first word comes catch it. Why do you allow the whole sentence to come out then you go around "Oh, this is difficult, this is difficult, this is difficult". Moment the first word comes catch. Say "Stop. Ten days I am going to give you leave, holiday." So just, from today ten days decide: For next ten days, I will not give power to these words. And after tenth day it will never come back I tell you.
 
(08:54)
 
I tell you, because I am working with thousands of people. I am working not only thousands, I can say Lacs. In last two years, I have met 250 000, means 2 and a half Lac how do you say it? Quarter million. Quarter million. 250,000.00 People I've met individually. I have 2000 healers doing healing service in 400 centres in 20 countries. With all my experience I tell you... I have seen at least 10 000 people like you, who ask this question, same question. All the 10 000 can drop. And there are many thousands who are successful. Just for 10 days, not more than that, I am not asking you more than that. Just for next ten days decide: I will not repeat these words and give power to these words. Just these are words, pure words and it is you who create words, self-contradicting words and get into the trouble, and it is purely words.
 
(10:08)
 
You go and standing in the corner of a room and say "Oh! I am in a prison, I am in a prison". You never turn and see the third side. You never see..,. turn, and see that actually the room is open. That's a two walls you go and stand in the corner of the two walls: “Oh I am in a prison, I am caught, I am caught. But you never take time to turn this side and see, you are free, you are liberated. You are always hitting yourself with a second person and third person. Means the, outer world, you never look into the first person to see you are liberated. First of all, there is no first-person. You always hit your face in the second person and the third person. In that wall and you think you are bound. Just turn there is no first-person. Neither you are bound, nor you need liberation. Because there is no first-person. All your fears, your worries, your feeling of separateness is build on the idea of you being first-person. Your idea of that "I - first-person". The first-person itself does not exist. He is not there as you think. As you think he is not there. Just turn in and see he is not there. Then why do you need to liberate yourself from the second-person and the third-person? There is no need. But as long as you’re hitting your head, against the second-person and the third-person you will never be liberated. It's like you are hitting your head on the wall. You can never be liberated. The moment you turn in and see... The moment you fall in, you will see that there is no first-person. You are just fighting with your concepts. You are just fighting with your assumed fears, assumed boundaries, assumed anxieties. The fear of separateness, is nothing but...The concept is just based on... build on the concept that you are somebody. When you look, you will understand you are not as you think.
 
(12:38)
 
Yes.
 
Please, can you do little loud.
 
Question 5: “I am constant physical pain and I have an injury. I am in constant physical pain for five years. And I really struggle with… And I have been thought to stay with it, accept it, and don’t judge it and I am really struggling with this”
 
 
 
(13:13)
 
I can help you in two ways. One is, try to drop that word pain and start seeing the whole thing as something new experience. If you are feeling painful somewhere, just see, what is happening in that area now. Like a child is seeing. When a child sees something new how curious it is. Same way look at that thing in a very curious way. That's the first step. The next, I will try to help you by healing, after the class. Both I think, hope, it will help you.
 
(13:51)
 
Yes.
 
Question 6: “I have a follow-up question to when You said that there are thousands of ways in which we can Rise after we Fall In. Some people laugh, some fall etc. Is it compatible with what we do with our jobs after we Raise - can we still do the same thing every day?”
 
  
(14:17)
+
[00:17:22]
Of course, you will do the thinking but in a different way, much better way, that's all. Because you will not, your energy will not be sucked, as it is sucked now by your psychological worry. As of now 80% of your inner chattering is taken away by unnecessary worrying. If you just do this simple experiment.
 
(14:47)
 
Speak whatever comes to your, comes to your mind for 10 minutes and record it. Whatever comes, don't edit, just speak out and record it. Then transcribe that tape. Transcribe it, write it down, read the page. Not even 10% will be directly related to your life or going to help you. Not even 10% of the thoughts, will be directly related to your life. Simply something will be going on in your mind. And it is almost like running on a asylum, uniting asylum inside. Each sense is pulling itself, so many different kinds of thoughts, you don't even know. But once you drop the past, once you start living in the present, once you start experiencing the Consciousness, the wasting energy will not be there. You will not be drained so easy. We are drained so easily because even to take a single decision, you have to move your fight through ten thousand tables. Ten thousand, ten thousands of your energy clothes has to say yes only then you will take, you will be able to take one decision. If the energy clothes are removed you will be able to take that same decision in a single second.
 
(16:10)
 
The other day, the doctor Collins ,that is his name, Collins was doing a research on my neurological system, just three days ago, in St. Louise. He was associates with the, some University he was working and, he was doing a research on my brain, what happens at the time of meditation and he says this Right brain is so active, many, many times more than a left-brain and he says "Swamiji the informations in your brain will be processed so easily and so quickly, if the left-brain takes minutes to process one information, right-brain takes only fraction of second to process that same information. Same information, and simply will be giving decisions, without any worry. And he says one more thing: The right-brain is more related to the global thinking and timeless zone." You will be continuously experiencing the Timeless Awareness. Which is the greatest freedom.
 
(17:22)
 
Time-bound Awareness or space-bound Awareness is what we call bondage. ‘Banda’, we call it in Sanskrit ‘Banda’, Bondage. The Timeless-Awareness and Spaceless-Awareness is what I call Mukti, the Enlightenment, Liberation. So all you need to do is 'drop' the past, you will be able to do your job much better way. Much more creative way, much more beautiful way, much more spontaneous way, much more responsible way. According to me the ability to take the ability to take spontaneous decision is what I call responsible. If you are able to take spontaneous decisions if you have the ability to take spontaneous decisions, you are responsible. You have Responsibility.

Time-bound awareness or space-bound awareness is what we call bondage. ‘Bandha’ we call it in Sanskrit ‘bandha’, bondage. The Timeless - Awareness and Spaceless - Awareness is what I call Mukti, the enlightenment, liberation.

So all you need to do is 'drop' the past, you will be able to do your job much better way. Much more creative way, much more beautiful way, much more spontaneous way, much more responsible way. According to me, the ability to take spontaneous decision is what I call responsible. If you are able to take spontaneous decisions, if you have the ability to take spontaneous decision, you are responsible. You have responsibility.

Fall Into Rise || Part 1 || Initiation into Powerful Cognitions || 19 April 2005

Description

Title: Fall Into Rise Part 1 Name of Convention: Initiation into Powerful Cognitions Session on: Experience Freedom of Mind and End All Your Suffering Date: 19 April 2005 Venue: Yellow Springs, Ohio, USA

In this video Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism HDH #Nithyananda Paramashivam explains how the mental setup we carry affects our experience of the present and future. Not only that, He even gives the direct technique to free ourselves from it.

The idea of who we are is not the same as who we truly are. Our identity is nothing but the words we carry as our mental set up, stemming from our past experiences. In Sanskrit this mental set-up is called as a “Samskara”. This Samskara determines whether we experience life as blissful or painful. Any word that comes into our mind gets the power and becomes experience. When a word or idea is not there, we don’t suffer that.

When we carry our past, we have a layer called the ‘reactive mind’, which prevents us from making logical decisions. Thoughts that make us feel uncomfortable and not allow our thinking to flow freely, is called as an ‘energy clot’. In this video, HDH #Nithyananda Paramashivam explains how we can free ourselves from these energy clots so that we can experience life as a Buddha; easily, effortlessly, blissfully, independent of our ‘outer’ circumstances.

The Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism Jagatguru Mahasannidhanam His Divine Holiness Nithyananda Paramashivam (HDH) is the reviver of #KAILASA - the ancient enlightened civilization and the great cosmic borderless Hindu nation. Revered as the incarnation of Paramashiva - the primordial Hindu Divinity, HDH has a following of 2 billion Hindus worldwide with de facto spiritual embassies in over 150 countries. He has worked untiringly for over 26 years for the revival of Kailasa, for global peace and to give super conscious breakthrough to humanity. He has survived the worst persecution of multiple assassination attempts on person and on character by anti-Hindu elements. He is collecting, organising, preserving, time capsuling, decoding, spreading and reviving 20 Million source books of Hinduism and the 64 sacred arts & sciences like Ayurveda, music, dance, sculpting, astrology, vastu and much more. Close to 20,000 hours of HDH’s timeless talks have been recorded till date (Sep 2020), which are a treasure trove of powerful cognitions to solve individual and global problems of any kind.

I welcome you all with My love and respect.

(0:24)

Fall in to rise is the today's topic.

A small story in Buddha's life. Then we will enter into the subject.

A famous king of India, very popular guy. He is powerful. He wants to see Buddha. He goes to see Buddha with all his paraphernalia means his ministers, his citizens, his representatives, everybody. With his whole paraphernalia, he goes to see the Buddha and he carries two things: plate full of jewelleries, the diamonds and in one more plate, full of flowers. Both he takes and goes to see the Buddha. When he goes to see the Buddha, Buddha just looks at his gifts, presents of diamond and flower. He says, ‘drop.’ First, the king was shocked. He dropped the flower plate. Then again Buddha said, ‘drop.’ He dropped the diamonds also. When he stood up, again Buddha said, ‘drop.’ Now the king was not able to understand anything. First time, he thought he is asking me to drop the flower plate. He dropped. Second time, he thought he is asking me to drop the jewels, diamonds also. He dropped. Again Buddha is telling, ‘drop.’ King was puzzled. He was standing. He asked Buddha, “What should I drop?”

(02:54)

“Drop yourself. You will rise.” Immediately next question, king asked, “How to drop?” That is the usual next question. The moment you bring the idea how, you have made the whole thing complicated. You have complicated the whole thing. Let Me explain what do I mean by the word dropping and how we are complicating it. When I say the word ‘drop,’ whatever you think as you, whatever you think as you, all your idea about you is based on your past experiences. Your past. Your past decisions or your past experiences, past understandings, only based on that but always past is past, dead. That is why it is called past. Always it is past. With your updated present intelligence, if you review the past decisions, you will always create guilt in you. Same way, if you carry the past references into the present decisions, you will replicate or duplicate the same past mistakes in the future.

(04:42)

Understand these two things. With the present intelligence if you review the past incidents or decisions, you will create guilt in your being. With past decisions or experiences, if you take the present decision, based on the past experiences, if you do the present decisions, you will be replicating or duplicating the same past in the future also, maybe little updated way. You will not do the same mistake, little different but you will be moving in the same level, the same layer, the same way in the same plane. The past is after all dead. Whatever you think as you is just dead. When I say, ‘drop,’ just disconnect. You can, you can disconnect but we always bring one more sentence into our mind, “No, I tried so many times. I am not able to. How can I do that?”

(06:00)

When you say, “I tried so many times, I am not able to,” again you have brought the past in. That is also one more past. “I tried, I am not able to” or “I failed” is the past experience. As long as you bring that, how can you say that you have dropped the past? No, that is one more past. When you dream again and again past to the life, to the present life, you live in the same mental setup. In Sanskrit, we call Samskara. Samskara means the mental setup- how you think, how you move, how you live. That mental setup is what we call Samskara. You create a particular Samskara or mental setup and again and again you live only based on that. At some time, you would have tried something which is impossible and naturally you would have failed and those failures will be recorded in you such a deep way as a deep impression, again and again you bring only your failures up to your mind and you start thinking, “No, no, I can't. I can't drop the past. It is too big job for me. I am not so courageous.” You bring these words again and again into your consciousness.

(07:43)

One important thing we forget. Any word which is brought again and again into your consciousness gets the power. It gets the power. Your consciousness gives power to everything. Anything comes in front of you receives power. Whether it is good or bad, simply it receives power. Any thought which appears into your being just becoming energetic. Your consciousness is so powerful, so radiant, it gives energy, it gives power for everything. Bring any thought in front of your mind, in front of your consciousness. That will become alive like a projector..... In front of a projector, if you bring any slide, that slide will become reality. If you bring a slide of a temple, you will see the temple in reality. If you bring a slide of an actor, you will see that actor in reality. If you bring the slide of a church, you will see the church in reality. Any slide you bring in front of the projector light, that becomes reality.

(08:50)

Any word which you bring in front of your consciousness, that becomes reality. Any word especially in the dream state you can realize this. Early morning when you are almost out of sleep but not out of bed, just you are lying, at that time if you just remember or be aware of your dreams, you can see very clearly how the words coming into your mind and becoming vision or becoming reality. Just you will have word, “My friend is coming into my house. I am seeing him,” and you will see the whole dream. It will be word and experience. If you experience this early morning dream, you can understand what I am saying. The early morning, just lying on the couch. Not completely taken over by the sleep or not completely aware. Almost half- half. At that time, if you see your dreams, you can see this. Just words appearing into your mind and become a vision or experience. Any word comes into your mind gets the power and it becomes experience.

(10:19)

I have seen people giving birth to kids without any pain. In Madhya Pradesh of India, Central India, a group of tribal villagers are living. I had a chance to live with them. I Myself saw, they give birth to kids without any pain. No pain, no assistance, no medicine, no attendant, nothing. No doctor. Just like that they give birth to kids and they take care of themselves. I was shocked. I asked them, “How could this be possible? Don't you have pain?” They asked Me, “Pain? Why? Why should we have pain?” The very idea pain don't exist in their life. The very idea of pain is not there. When that word or idea is not there, you don't suffer that. We suffer only what we again and again recall, remember or repeat. Anything again and again repeated by you, recalled by you becomes reality. That becomes solid truth, reality for your being.

(11:39)

If you think, “I tried to drop the past, I am not able to.” These words again and again when it is repeated inside your system, you decide you can't drop the past, you can't drop, you can't achieve it. The difficulty is, when you decide something solid, you collect arguments only to support that judgment. Whenever you decide something solid, whenever you have some judgment about yourself, you collect the arguments only to support that judgment. You don't think of anything else. You don't bother about anything else. All you do is, again and again you create more and more incidences, you create more and more arguments to support only your judgment. Anything you believe, you make it more strong, you make it more strong. We never enter into the reality. We create a big wall between reality and ourself.

(12:58)

One side, all the spiritual mystics and masters again and again declaring whatever is, is bliss, whatever is, is consciousness, whatever is, is energy. The other side, the so-called normal people again and again they say whatever is, is misery, whatever is, is suffering, whatever is, is troubling us. Where is the gap? Why the same word looks so beautiful for Buddha and so miserable for buddhu? Very difficult. You can't give any logical reason. The same world, same lifestyle, same country, everything is same. Except the person, everything is same.. When you have the past, you have a layer called reactive mind. You don't take logical decision. Please be very clear, the man who carries the past can never take any logical decision. You see, for example, if you are disturbed by somebody who was wearing yellow colour dress ten years ago, that becomes a deep print in you. Anytime you see anybody with yellow color dress, you will remember that. Unconsciously that memory will come up and you try to keep away from that person. You start your judgment in negative way. Then if that person proves to be really genuine, then you go near. It takes more effort and more energy for you to understand that person just because of your past experience.

(14:56)

Anybody who carries past, the reactive mind.... Let Me give you a small example to understand whether we have reactive mind or not. If you are just sitting and lost in thinking, suddenly you remember something which you don't want to remember, some place or some person, some situation in which you are disturbed, you are abused, you don't want to remember, suddenly it comes in your memory but you don't want that.... to remember that. Immediately you just brush that aside. You say, “Let me just think of something else, let me think of something else.” You come back and you change the course of your thinking. If you are doing this, be very clear, you have something called reactive mind. These memories which you don't want to think or with which you are not comfortable is what I call energy clot. Just like a blood clot, energy clot. See, when blood clots, the blood can't flow freely. Same way, these are the energy clots which does not allow your thinking flow freely.

(16:16)

The person who has more energy clots will always feel suffocated, stressed, bound. Person who doesn't have energy clots, his thinking will be so free, his consciousness will be so free, he will never feel that he is bound, stressed or suffocated. It is the energy clots which decide whether you will experience the boundarylessness or expansion or you suffocate yourself and continuously get stressed. I have seen people, even sitting in beach and getting suffocated. They will be sitting in beach or their so-called vacation but they will not be just in that boundaryless experience. They will not be in that the expanding experience.

Fall Into Rise || Part 2||Initiation into Powerful Cognitions || 19 April 2005

Description

Title: Fall Into Rise Part 2 of 3 Name Program: Satsang Session on: Experience Freedom of Mind and End All Your Suffering Date: 19 April 2005 Venue: Yellow Springs, Ohio, USA

In this video Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism HDH #Nithyananda​ Paramashivam elaborates on the experience of the reactive mind and #liberation​ from this by a process He calls as ‘dropping’. Whatever you think as you, just drop that. Whether we experience the sense of suffocation or the sense of boundary-lessness is not dependent on our outer world, but on our inner world. It is dependent on how many ‘energy clots’ we carry in our mental set up.

Whatever we fall for, that will become the reality in our lives. When we “Fall In” we fall more for the inner world than for the outer world. When we fall for the outer world, we will make that as a reality. It is our decision whether we travel towards the Ephemeral (Pravriti ) or Eternal, the #ultimate​, our being (Nivriti). When we travel inwards, we will just remember who we are.

HDH #Nithyananda​ Paramsahivam explains how the mind cheats us over and over again by connecting the negative events in our lives. Even when we don’t worry for a while the mind will again come up with some worry, we are habituated to connect all the negative things and create an idea about the world and ourselves. The way we judge ourselves is the same as the way we judge the world.

When we drop, we raise to the ultimate energy

[00:14]

I have seen people sitting in a small room their whole life. I have seen one person in my native place… he lives in my native place. For almost 35 years he lives in one 10 by 10 room; 35 years he stays in one 10 by 10 room. Nobody is binding him. He is considered or worshipped as an enlightened master. His name is called Tinnai swamigal. He’s a disciple of Ramana Maharishi. His story is beautiful story. Let me narrate his story. He went to see Ramana Maharishi and he asked, “Bhagwan, how can I achieve the spiritual experience? How can I achieve enlightenment? Should I do puja? Should I do some worship? Should I do some repetition of the mantra? Should I chant some verses? What should I do? Should I meditate?” Bhagwan said, just very casually he said, “drop.” Very casual for him, just drop. This person is so sincere, simply he dropped, really he dropped. Something has dropped in him and he sat in a nearby room. From that time till today he is sitting exactly in that same room and living happily. Nobody is binding him. Nobody is asking him not to go out or anything. He just says, “No, I’m happy. I don’t feel like. If at all I feel like, I’ll go out.” Hundreds of people come there to see him. He is sitting there radiating the peace and bliss. He says, “I feel totally expanded. I am boundaryless, where can I go?” There are people who are sitting inside 10 by 10 room and feeling the boundaryless consciousness, experiencing the universal consciousness, and there are people who are lying in the beaches and feeling suffocated, stressed. Boundaryless experience has nothing to do with outer world. It is something to do with the number of energy clots you have, the reactive mind. When you drop the reactive mind, when you start directly relating with the existence your whole being is liberated.

[02:59]

Somebody goes to a zen master and asks, “Master how can I achieve liberation?” He just, master just laughs and says, “Who has bound you? When did you get into the bondage?” Immediately the disciple just becomes enlightened. When I say the word ‘drop’ whatever you understand according to your Oxford dictionary just do that, that’s enough. Whatever you know by the word dropping, just drop. Whatever you think as your being or whatever you think as you, just drop that. The difficulty is we are afraid. That is the only property we have, asset we have. That is the only thing which we accumulated throughout our life. How to drop that? If we drop that, how to live? How to survive? How we can live? Holding what we can live? All we have is our past life and past experiences. How can we be alive if we drop the past?

[04:23]

I tell you, when you drop the past, don't think the memory itself will disappear. Your emotional attachment to that memory will disappear. Actually when you drop the past you will be able to live in the present much more intense way, much more deep way, much more beautiful way. Again and again and again if you read all the great master's teachings it comes back to only one point, drop or fall. Fall in so that you can raise. An important thing, instead of falling in, many time we fall outside; means, falling for the things which is in the outer world or falling towards the outer world. Of course, whenever we fall towards the outer world naturally we will make only that as a reality. What, if you fall for anything you'll make that as a reality. That will become solid truth in your life. Whatever you think as truth you fall for that. Whatever you feel and fall, you make that as a truth. If you think the outer world is truth, you fall for that. If you fall for the outer world, you make that as a truth.

[06:03]

When you fall in, fall for the inner world, you make the inner world as a reality. When you make the inner world as a reality you fall more for the inner world. Now it is like a vicious circle. If you fall for the outer world you make this as a more reality and fall more for this, circle goes on. And if you fall for the inner world you make that as a reality and again fall more for it. Whether you travel in this line or in this line, it is a thing which you're supposed to decide. Pravritti or Nivritti in sanskrit we call. Towards the ephemeral or towards the eternal. It is our decision whether to travel towards the pravritti, towards the ephemeral or towards the Nivritti, towards the eternal. When you drop the past, you simply travel towards the eternal. You travel towards the ultimate. You travel towards your being and you just remember what you are and what's your being.

[07:25]

Let me narrate a small story. There was a King ruling a country. He had a son who is a vagabond. Somehow the King was not happy with his attitude and life. So he just wanted to punish his son. So he told his son, "Leave this country. Go out, stay somewhere for ten years. If you're able to maintain yourself for ten years then I may take you back. Otherwise there is no possibility. Just get lost." Anyhow he was sent out of the country. He was a Prince and he doesn't know anything else, how to maintain himself. All he knows is only to play some music or dance and who will give money for that? Surely he can't make enough money. So, he goes round begging from house to house, door to door. Ten years he was living in the same way. After ten years suddenly this King remembered. Now it is time I should send my people to search for my son. Whether he has managed to survive or still he is alive. Let these guys go and find out. He sends all his people, "Go around, find where he is".

[09:21]

One minister, he goes and finds this Prince. This guy was standing and begging somewhere on the roadside. The minister goes and touches the feet of the beggar and says, "Sir, do you remember? You're a Prince of our country, we wanted you to come back. The King wants you now back, please come back." The moment the minister touched his feet, the beggar's whole body language changed. He was a beggar till that moment. The moment the minister touched his feet he said, "Oh, is it so? Alright. Get my chariot." The whole body language changed, whole tone, the whole mental setup, everything is changed. Got into that chariot, went to the palace and his whole mental setup is totally different. He can never associate himself again, he was never able to associate himself again with his old past. His lifestyle, body language, mentality, thinking setup, everything is now new. It did not take too much time for him, he did not ask the minister, "How can I change, drop my past? How can I change my mental setup?" No. Just one moment the whole cognitive shift has happened.

[11:04]

Really the cognitive shift takes only one moment, one second. All you need to do is to believe, the Kingdom of God or the Heaven is straightaway available to us and open your eyes, start living. This very land can become heaven. This very life can become heaven. This very life can become Kingdom of God. Only all you need to do is, now you collect, now you connect all the negative incidents of your life and create an idea about yourself and the world. Instead of that, connect all the cosmic incidents of your life and create an idea about yourself and the world. That's all, nothing else.

[12:00]

Be very clear, at least fifty percent in our life positive things are there. That is why still we are alive. If everything is completely negative we can't be alive. You being here that is enough proof at least fifty percent of your life is positive. You being here itself is enough proof at least we have fifty percent incidents, things, positive in our life. The difficulty is, our mental setup is such, we can't survive without worries and negativity. Just scan your mental thinking. If you feel relaxed, open, empty sometimes, you feel uncomfortable. You start searching for some worries, something to think, something to ponder over, something to contemplate. You can't be alive in boundaryless consciousness. You continuously feel that you need something, some material to chew. You need something to chew. That is the reason you catch some subject. If you don't have any subject, if you're not able to catch any material you start thinking “How long the life will go like this smoothly? I don’t know when it will change. I don’t know when bad things will start.?” You start bothering about something else. Always we are habituated, trained, to connect all the negative things and create an idea about ourself and about the world.

[13:43]

The way in which you judge yourself, please be very clear, you’ll be judging the world also in the same way. We never believe others are speaking truth because we never speak truth. You can always see, you always think, “when I am like this naturally he’ll also be like that only. When I live like this naturally he will also be like that only.” You judge everybody else the same way you judge yourself. Bible says God created man in his own mould. I tell you one more thing, man creates the world in his own mould. God creates the world, God created man in his own mould. I tell you one thing: man create the world in his own mould. Whatever you think as you, you create the same world. You project the same world. Any idea which you create about yourself that plays a major role about your, your idea about the world. It is you who create and project. It is you who experience.

[15:05]

The difficulty is we never give so much of gap between ourself and our thinking system. You are too much associated, caught up with the thinking system. You never suspect it. You never suspect your thinking system and perception. You never doubt. You doubt everybody else but never yourself. You doubt everybody else but never yourself. Before satisfaction of any desire your mind says something. Once you achieve that desire your mind says totally opposite. But even though it is your experience again and again and again you never suspect your mind. You never doubt your mind. Before achieving you think about that object in a different way. Before achieving even the mustard seed looks like a mountain. Without that you can’t be alive. especially when you read this Skymall magazine you feel as if you can’t be alive without those products. They write and advertise in such a wonderful way, you feel they are basic needs. Before achieving even a mustard seed looks like a mountain once you achieve even mountain looks like a mustard seed.

[16:34]

Again and again your mind cheats you. You run, run, run, run, run, to achieve something, the moment you achieve the whole thing is empty; but you never suspect your mind. You suspect, you doubt everything else except your idea about yourself and your idea about the world which needs to be doubted, which needs to be suspected. If the moment you start doubting your idea about yourself and your idea about the world, you drop. You just drop. The doubt is more than enough, the very doubt is enough to give you the courage to drop. As long as we don’t doubt our understandings we go on, go on, go on.

There’s a beautiful movie, the other day I was seeing “What the bleep do we know?” A wonderful movie. They’ve done a great service by making that movie. I tell you, they have done a very big service to the world by doing that movie. She asks a beautiful question, “your dream and this world both are seen by your brain in a equal, same way. Then how can you say this is reality and that is dream? Or that is dream and this is reality?” They create basic doubts which is supposed to be created in every individual, in every human being. The moment you enter into this doubt you drop. When you drop you really raise. When you fall in, you raise. Raise to the ultimate experience, ultimate consciousness what they call divine, God or universal intelligence or cosmic energy. So I pray to that ultimate energy, the cosmic energy, let us all fall in to it and become the divine energy, that eternal bliss, Nithyananda. Thank you.

You are welcome to analyze these concepts with any questions. If you want more light on the subject or you have doubt you are not able to agree you are welcome, we’ll analyse. Yes.

[00:00:40]

Question: “Could you talk a little bit about the issue of speed? The world in many contexts seems to be moving faster and faster and faster. And what impact does this have on our Consciousness and our ability to drop ...?” “He is saying, the world is going faster and faster. What impact does this have on our ability to drop?” Swamiji: Oh, the more faster, difficult to drop. Because you get more information and too much of stress. So much of processing is going on, you forget to question the basic things. See one important thing. When everybody is engaged in so much of work, you forget to question the whole system. You have no time to question the basic system. Because so much of load is there, to be finished, to be done, to be accomplished. Where is the time to question the basic questions? Where is the time to raise the basic doubts? That is why in India the first thing they do is, in their education system, to raise the basic doubts. Till the age of 25, nobody can take up any job, they have to raise all the basic doubts and live with it. And question again and again, such ... Only when they achieve the balance of discovering the answer into their being, only then they are allowed to enter into the life, whether to marriage, or to earning, making money. Till the age of 25, it is called the period of Brahmacharya, means studying, living with existence, living with doubts, searching in your Self. Of course, the more the speed, less the possibility of dropping. You can drop out, not drop in.

[00:03:04]

Yes. Question: "Are there many phases to this 'dropping in'? Like, talked about one phase, this person who is living in a ten- by-ten bedroom ”

Swamiji: Yes, there are many phases. See, when you 'drop in' what happens after that is very ... totally different, but 'dropping in' is only one thing. Once you 'drop in' then what happens when you raise, it raises in a thousands of ways. Somebody goes around the world and preaches; somebody just sings and dances like Mira, somebody sits under the Banyan tree like a Buddha, somebody just walks naked like a Mahadeva; there are so many expressions, after 'dropping in'. But the 'dropping in' is common for everybody. After that, when you raise, you raise in thousands of ways. See, Ramana Maharshi himself never sat in one ten-by-ten room. He went round in the whole city, that at least in that city, he never went out of that city, inside the city he was walking and living around. But his disciple was sitting inside one room. So each one has got their own method of express. Buddha was quiet and silent, peaceful; Krishna was singing and dancing. So, it’s totally based on individual’s experience.

[00:04:32]

Yes. Question: “It sounds like this is by design, that things are speeding up so much so we cannot 'drop'.” Swamiji: I think you must take little time to doubt the basic conclusions. The other day I read a beautiful book "Final theory". The book "Final Theory", if you have read that book you will... The basic ideas about the gravity, Newton's law, Einstein's theory, everything is questioned. Everything is questioned. And actually, when I read that book, really I was shocked, how did we miss such basic things? When we accepted Newton's theory, or Einstein's theory of relativity, we felt almost everything, at least I felt when I read all those things, I felt everything is answered. Everything is in place. But when I read this one book "Final Theory" the whole thing is shaken now. There was so many basic questions we've not raised at all. So before going further, we must raise some basic questions. We must have time to doubt the basic things. And we can't put the responsibility on the society ‘It is speeding up, it is this, it is that, I can't.’ Of course, when you say you can't, you will go with it, no problem. But if at all you want the truth, the ultimate experience, or if at all you are really in such a bliss... See, there are two things we are searching... See, some people are searching the status, some state. If you want the state of mind, blissful state of mind, okay. Or if you are searching for status, you can run with this speed. Status is different, state is different. If the state comes, status will follow. If the status comes, you can't be sure that state will follow, state will follow. So, if you really want to achieve that state of bliss, you have to question the basic assumptions which you made. Yes.

[00:06:57]

Question: “Swamiji, what are the steps 'to drop'? You just said 'Drop'. How do we empower the mind to drop?” Swamiji: The first step is to drop this idea. Mind really empower you. “Mind is too difficult.” “I did so many times, mind never accepts.” These are ideas which you've given so much of strength to these ideas. Just try to relax from these ideas. Decide for next 10 days: I will not repeat these ideas into my mind. I will not allow these words to come in my mind. Just for 10 days. Just for 10 days don't give power or strength to these words. “It is very difficult to drop Swamiji”, “you don't know”, “you say it is very easy but doing is very difficult”, “I have tried many times, it is very solid”, “mind is very complicated.” Just don't give power for these words for 10 days. Ten days repeat "No. Mind can be dropped. After all, I am thinking". Nobody else is sitting in you and thinking, na! I mean, are you sure that nobody else is sitting inside you and thinking? You are only sitting and thinking. When you are sitting and thinking, why can't you change? It’s after all you. It is you who create the word, word by word and create a sentence. Moment the first word comes, catch it. Why do you allow the whole sentence to come out then you go around "Oh, this is difficult, this is difficult, this is difficult"? Moment the first word comes, catch. Say "Stop. Ten days I am going to give you leave, holiday." So just from today, ten days decide: For next ten days, I will not give power to these words. And after tenth day it will never come back, I tell you.

[00:08:54]

I tell you, because I am working with thousands of people. I am working with not only thousands, I can say lakhs. In last two years, I have met 250 000, means, two and a half lakh how do you say here? Quarter million. Quarter million. 250,000 people I've met individually. I have 2000 healers doing healing service in 400 centres, in 20 countries. With all my experience I tell you, I have seen at least 10000 people like you, who ask this question, same question. All the 10000 can drop. And there are many thousands who are successful. Just for 10 days, not more than that, I am not asking you more than that. Just for next ten days decide: I will not repeat these words and give power to these words. Just these are words, pure words and it is you who create words, self-contradicting words and get into the trouble, and it is purely words.

[00:10:08]

You go and stand in the corner of a room and you say "Oh! I am in a prison, I am in a prison, I am in prison". You never turn and see the third side. You never see, turn, and see that actually the room is open. That's a two walls, you go and stand in the corner of the two walls: “Oh I am in prison, I am caught, I am caught. But you never take time to turn this side and see, you are free, you are liberated. You are always hitting yourself with a second person and third person. Means, the outer world, you never look into the first person to see you are liberated. First of all, there is no first-person. You always hit your face in the second person and the third person in that wall and you think you are bound. Just turn, there is no first-person. Neither you are bound, nor you need liberation. Because there is no first-person.

[00:11:12]

All your fears, your worries, your feeling of separateness is built on the idea of your being first-person, your idea of that "I - first-person". The first-person itself doesn't exist. He is not there as you think. As you think he is not there. Just turn in and see he is not there. Then why do you need to liberate yourself from the second-person and the third-person? There is no need. But as long as you’re hitting your head, against the second-person and the third-person you will never be liberated. It's like you are hitting your head on the wall. You can never be liberated. The moment you turn in and see, the moment you fall in, you will see that there is no first-person. You are just fighting with your concepts. You are just fighting with your assumed fears, assumed boundaries, assumed anxieties. The fear of separateness is nothing but… the concept is just based on, built on the concept that you are somebody. When you look, you will understand you are not as you think.

[00:12:38]

Yes. Please, can you be little loud? Question: “I am constant physical pain and I have an injury. I am in constant physical pain for five years. And I really struggle with…... And I have been taught to stay with it, accept it, and don’t judge it and I am really struggling with this.”

[00:13:13]

Swamiji: I can help you in two ways. One is, try to drop that word pain and start seeing the whole thing as something new experience. If you are feeling painful somewhere, just see, what is happening in that area. Like a child seeing, when a child sees something new, how curious it is. Same way look at that thing in a very curious way. That's the first step. The next, I will try to help you by healing, after the class. Both I think, hope, it will help you.

[00:13:51]

Yes. Question: “This is a follow-up question to when You said that there are thousands of ways in which we can Rise after we Fall In. Some people laugh, some stay quiet etc. Is it compatible with what we do with our jobs after we Raise - can we still do the same thing every day?”

[00:14:17]

Swamiji: Of course, you will do the same thing every day but in a different way, much better way, that's all. Because you will not, your energy will not be sucked, as it is sucked now by your psychological worrying. As on now, 80% of your inner chattering is taken away by unnecessary worrying. If you just do this simple experiment: Speak whatever comes to your, comes to your mind for 10 minutes and record it. Whatever comes, don't edit, just speak out and record it. Then transcribe that tape. Transcribe it, write it down, read that page. Not even 10% will be directly related to your life or going to help you. Not even 10% of the thoughts will be directly related to your life. Simply something will be going on in your mind. And it is almost like running an asylum, lunatic asylum inside.

[00:15:24]

Each sense is pulling itself, so many different kinds of thoughts, you don't even know. But once you drop the past, once you start living in the present, once you start experiencing the consciousness, the wasting energy will not be there. You will not be drained so easily. We are drained so easily, because even to take a single decision you have to move your file through ten thousand tables. Ten thousand, ten thousands of your energy clots has to say yes, only then you will take, you will be able to take one decision. If the energy clots are removed, you will be able to take that same decision in a single second.

[00:16:10]

The other day, the doctor Collins, that is his name, Collins was doing a research on my neurological system, just three days ago, in St. Louis. He was associated with the, some University he was working and he was doing a research on my brain, what happens at the time of meditation. And he says this right brain is so active, many, many times more than left-brain, and he says "Swamiji, the informations in your brain will be processed so easily and so quickly, if the left-brain takes minutes to process some information, right-brain takes only fraction of second to process that same information, same information, and simply you will be giving decisions, without any worry.” And he says one more thing: “The right-brain is more related to the global thinking and timeless zone." You will be continuously experiencing the timeless awareness. Which is the greatest freedom.

[00:17:22]

Time-bound awareness or space-bound awareness is what we call bondage. ‘Bandha’ we call it in Sanskrit ‘bandha’, bondage. The Timeless - Awareness and Spaceless - Awareness is what I call Mukti, the enlightenment, liberation.

[00:17:40]

So all you need to do is 'drop' the past, you will be able to do your job much better way. Much more creative way, much more beautiful way, much more spontaneous way, much more responsible way. According to me, the ability to take spontaneous decision is what I call responsible. If you are able to take spontaneous decisions, if you have the ability to take spontaneous decision, you are responsible. You have responsibility.
