Description:

Today Swamiji talked about responsibility. He told us to do more and more declarations. When you declare consciously your being gets awakened and transformed and responsibility becomes part of your being. Just decide i am responsible for the whole world and innumerable right things will happen. Any part of us that is not filled with responsibility will get filled with society's cognition of excitement. We need to fill ourself with responsibility and complete now and the past melts down. The social excitement and your attraction to it also melt down. He told us all 'Life is Just. Life is Dhamma. Life is Authenticity, Integrity, Responsibility and Enriching. Don't go with the flow of society, you are answerable for what you did and what you did not do. Always go with A.I.R.E.

I will move to today’s satsangh.

First of all, I want to thank all the devotees who are showering this “Get Well” message on Facebook, and through phone calls to our Enriching Temple. The amount of suggestions and wishes! Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the love! And I also request…..enough! Please stop it now! Because my Facebook is full, my Wall is full! And Enriching Temple is not able to handle! I just want to tell you guys I think most of you, especially devotees who are watching through Sadhana TV does not know what is happened to my hand.

Around two years before, I had a fracture during horse riding. That time the doctors had fixed plates and screws – two big plates and fifteen screws – and now we did surgery and removed those screws and plates because the bone got healed completely, bone got settled completely. That’s all has happened! I don’t have any injury. Don’t worry. Just wanted you guys to know that. I am doing well. I am continuously taking care of my health. I am not disrespecting my health or body. I am doing my regular activities, no doubt. I am not just sleeping. I am doing my regular shooting, the reality show which I am doing in Tamil TV – Thanthi TV – I am continuing the shooting in the day time, and my morning satsang. But I don’t have any problem. I am taking care of my health. I am properly resting in the night. So many people advising, ‘You don’t take care of your health..!”. As if taking revenge on me! Be very clear, I am a very balanced guy. I care for my health. So you don’t need to worry about it. And I am taking care of my health just to enrich all you guys. Just for that I will be available. So don’t worry.

And I am also okay…..I am able to do all my movements, hand movements. Of course, it may take a few more days to have all the normal movements. But I am okay. I am able to do it.

So, I wanted to thank all the devotees and all the disciples for showering your love and wishes. Enriching Temple people are telling me that so many phone calls they have to explain what happened from the beginning! So, now I think all of you are clear about whatever has happened.

I am also sending my blessings to Vancouver-Bhubaneshwar, the Sangha get-together and bhajans and sharing session, enriching session! Blessings! Great!

Today I will expand on “DEEPER TRUTHS OF RESPONSIBILITY AND ENRICHING”.

Please listen! Come to the space of listening!

Responsibility! Among these four tattvas – Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Enriching – Responsibility is the most easiest principle. You don’t need to do anything! A very simple thing! Whenever you are going to eat, just declare, ‘With Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Enriching, I am allowing this food to enrich me, and I commit I will enrich the people who shared this food with me.’ When you are about to sleep, declare, ‘With Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Enriching, I declare I will be complete with all my day-to-day activities and I will rest in peace, no incompletions.’ You will have dreamless sleep! When you wake up, declare ‘With Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Enriching, I wake up, and I will hold my responsible space for the world.’

I tell you, Responsibility is the most easiest method and process or technique. Why you know? For Responsibility to be part of you, you just need to do more and more number of declarations! Nothing else! Nothing else!

In Vaishnava tradition, there is a beautiful sloka:

“Yasya Smarana Maatrena Janma Samsaara Bandhanaath |

Vimuchyathey Namasthasmai Vishnavey Prabha Vishnavey” ||

Means, “just by remembrance who liberates us”!

In Shaiva tradition, there is a word: “Ninnaikka Mukthi Tharum Annamalai”

Please understand, what Vaishnava tradition says: “Yasya Smarana Maatrena” meansJust by remembrance, liberation!

What Shiva tradition says: “Just by remembrance, liberation!”

Responsibility is that!

With Responsibility, all you need to do is just declarations! Just declarations! The more and more number of times you remember, the more and more number of times you declare, the more and more number of times you remember, the more and more number of times you declare, Responsibility becomes part of your being!

I tell you, continuously declaring, declaring, declaring! Again, again and again and again declarations! When you are eating, declare! When you are about to sleep, declare! When you are sitting, declare! When you start your activities, declare! When you end your activities, declare! Whatever you do, bring declaration! The conscious remembrance is the way to cognitive shift. Conscious remembrance is the way to cognitive shift. Conscious declaration is the way for Responsibility.

Please understand, when you declare again and again, your being gets awakened, your cognition gets transformed. Please listen! When you bring Responsibility into your being, your non-mechanical parts of the brain get awakened. If you are a cook and you are cooking with the Responsibility that only if you cook you will have money, and with that money only you can take care of your needs and your family, you may be a good family man, you may be a head of a family, you may be a good cook, nothing more than that! But the same job if you do with the cognition of ‘I will enrich the world with the food! I am responsible for the whole world. So this cooking and enriching the world is the immediate action I will do, but I am responsible for the whole world!’, just a shift in your cognition, I tell you, you will be a Karma Yogi, because innumerable right things will be added to your thinking, innumerable right things will be added to your being, innumerable right things will be added to your action, innumerable right things will be added to your life, innumerable right things will be added to your life, innumerable right things will be added to your thinking!

Please understand, only one thing you need to feed into human consciousness. Like, if a car has to move, you have to feed fuel into it, same way only one thing you need to feed into a human-being is Responsibility! If just the Responsibility is fed into the human-being, human consciousness, everything, everything happens! If Responsibility is not fed, nothing can be done, I tell you!

Now, as the Mahamandaleshwar of the oldest apex body of Hinduism, I am looking into the reason for why we have degraded, why our civilization has lost respect? Because we forgot one thing: Feeding Responsibility to human-beings!

I am surprised! It is like when I look a little deeper, I could see it is not that the worker steals from the Company; the owner is stealing from the Company! The department head steals from that department! I feel we have become like a bunch of kleptomaniacs! Really! When we behave irresponsibly… Please understand, when I am talking, when I am saying “We”, I am doing self-criticism, I am talking about all of us; I am not talking about somebody else! Somehow unfortunately we ourselves didn’t develop trust over our own system. We ourselves didn’t feel our system is capable of keeping us alive, our system is capable of keeping us in the best form we can exist. We don’t trust our system can feed us. We don’t trust our system can keep us in shape. We don’t trust our system can help us to excel. First thing human-beings need to know, especially the leaders of Hinduism, our system is worthy, our system can keep, our system is intelligent enough to keep us excelling, it can make us excel, it can keep us in shape, it can keep us in peak.

Feeding Responsibility, please listen, Feeding Responsibility is the first step. When you don’t take Responsibility, even if forts are built, it will become empty.

O, India, you can never be fulfilled with your jeans and cellphones, because you are not made for it. You can be fulfilled only with your seeking, with your inner strength, with your enlightenment, with your enlightenment experience.

Feeding Responsibility into the individual! Please understand, sometime just some part of you do not understand your responsibility. You land up in a big mess and big soup. I have seen some of very good people coming to me and saying, ‘Swamiji, I don’t know how I did that crime. Just few days I forgot my responsibility and I have landed in this soup. I am not the guy who will do that kind of a crime. I do not know who hypnotised me, who mesmerized me to do that crime.’ Please understand any part of you, you have not filled with responsibility will naturally be filled with a cognition of social excitement. Whatever society teaches you as excitement that will become part of your cognition. You really may not have wanted to do that at all.

I have seen some people come to me in the Sarvadarshan and tell, ‘Swamiji, I never wanted to do this crime of beating up somebody or throwing stone on bus, damaging public property but somehow I became irresponsible, I did not feel responsible for that few days. The excitement which society teaches us, excitement got into my system and I did it. Now I am suffering in the court case and all the legal problems.’

One fellow came and told me, ‘Swamiji, I am not even a smoker. I don’t smoke. I don’t use alcohol. Somehow, because my friends said, I went and sold some drugs, because of the excitement. I am not the guy who will do this kind of work. Just the excitement, I did it, now I am in a big legal mess.’

Please understand, the solution for this kind of problem is feed yourself with Responsibility. Your being should be filled with Responsibility. Your being, when you fill your being with Responsibility, you will understand why this thinking happened, why you got into this mess and I tell you one more thing. Whenever you understand and complete with the reasons why you got into this mess all the side effects and after effects of that mess in your life melts away miraculously. Please understand, here I am giving you a promise. Here I am giving you a commitment. Don’t think, ‘Now I understand, now I’ll bring responsibility, now I’ll complete but how can this get me out of the past mess I created, happened in my life?’ Don’t worry, here I am giving you the commitment. When you bring the Responsibility now and start making your being Responsible even the past suddenly melts down, suddenly it melts down because your life is not disconnected from past and future. Past, present and future all are one and the same, when you handle any one part with intelligence, when you handle any one part and complete, align, all the other parts also starts getting aligned. When you complete with your present and hold the right space for the future, the past mess just melts down.

Sometime when you apply this principle, whatever right things happen in your life, you may think that I am causing that miracle. I am telling you, no it is the power of this principle and I will also tell you clearly when I am causing miracle I am not the guy who will hide. I am not the guy who will cause a miracle and then say ‘no not causing.’ I am telling you very clearly, I am very straightforward guy. I know where I am causing miracle and I know where the principle is causing miracle. I tell you this principle itself is powerful enough to cause miracle. Where I’ll cause miracle you know? You will try to follow this principle but you are not able to, you are failing but you are very, really, really sincere. You want to follow this principle because I am telling you, then even if you are not completely following the principle, I’ll interfere and cause miracle. I do that, I do, do that but this principle itself is intelligent enough to cause miracles. The principle itself is intelligent enough to cause miracles.

Just start living this principle of Responsibility and I tell you life has no shortcut.

Sometime people ask me, ‘Why do good people suffer? Why bad people are rich and happy?’

It’s all a lie, life is just, life is dharma. Whatever you want, you are having it. Whatever you want, you are creating it. Whatever you want, you are projecting it. Whatever you want, you are making it. Whatever you want, you are living it. Life is just, life is Dhamma. Life is just life is Dhamma. Life is just and life is Dhamma. So, please listen, the whole life functions based on the principles of Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Enriching. If you think some part of life is wrong, still you have not started understanding that part of the life. That’s all, nothing else. If you have questions, you have to contemplate, not create anger or vengeance. Creating anger or vengeance is not going to solve the issue. Creating anger or vengeance is not going to clear it.

Bring Responsibility into your being. When you bring Responsibility into your being and you complete with the present, please understand, I am giving you the gist. When you bring Responsibility into your being and you complete with your present the past mess happened in your life also completely dissolves, disappears. You are liberated, you are free. Not only from the mistake you did, but from the very pattern of doing that again. See, if there is some part of your being not filled with Responsibility, if there is some part of your being not filled with Responsibility, that part gets excited just by the social excitement.

What is social excitement you know? Giving you the false, pseudo feeling all the people who excite you are going to be there forever, when you are in a mess, you will be all alone. That is what is social excitement. I tell you, people who excite you, ‘Come on, throw stone on the bus. Come on, go and beat that guy. Come on, come and steal the chain. Come on go and rob that house. Come on go and sell this drug and take money. Come on, go and hit this fellow from behind the back.’ All this is social excitement. ‘Come on, go and rag your junior!’

In India, the ragging is a big problem. In India, ragging and selling drugs amongst the youngsters, especially in residential schools, have become big racket, it’s becoming big racket. India is facing a big danger in ragging and drugs, these two. These are all social excitement but when you are in a mess, you will be all alone, nobody will be there around you.

Please understand, life itself is a social excitement. Society says, ‘Come on, get married.’ ‘Come on, have children.’ ‘Come on, have job.’ When you are old and all alone facing the life there will be nobody with you. When the death comes you will be all alone, nobody will be there. You can’t hide behind your wife’s pallu, when Yama comes, understand, when Lord of death comes you cannot hide behind your wife’s pallu and say, ‘Oh, whole world gets married, whole of society lives like that only. I also lived like that’ No Kaala’s eyes will burn the pallu and you together!

No, society itself, I think, a kind of collective excitement which takes you away from Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Enriching. I tell you, the man who understands with Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Enriching, society is nothing but collective excitement and it may not stand by you when you are in a mess, is a Sannyasi. Who understands, ‘I have to be integrated, I have to be responsible, I have to be authentic, I have to be enriching, I can’t flow just because the whole group is excited to flow in a certain direction’, is a Sannyasi.

Yes, everyone gets married, no doubt. Everyone gets the kids, no doubt. Everyone gets the properties, no doubt. Everyone cheats others, no doubt.

Just yesterday, one of my sannyasis was asking me ‘Even our own devotees are saying, “How can we follow Integrity in business? In business we have to do this way, that way, that is the way we can make money”.’

I said, ‘No, it’s a wrong trend.’

‘People said it is not practical to follow Integrity in the business.’

No, I tell you, not following Integrity and making the money may be the social excitement. It’s like a college excitement - all these college boys when they gather together they throw stone on some bus and do some strike, burn something, behave irresponsibly, but when police catches you, you will be all alone. They will all run away! They will all disappear! Same way because everyone in the society lives without Integrity and they do business without Integrity don’t think you too don’t need to have Integrity. If you do when life catches you, you will be all alone. Life catches everyone, understand, country may not have enough police to catch everyone but life has enough Yama Doothas. Yama has enough of Yama Doothas to catch everyone. Understand, do not violate these principles, break these principles of Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Enriching. Even if whole world violates these principles, even if the whole world is against these principles, don’t, I tell you, because life has no shortcut, life is straight.

Please understand, sometimes life first attends to big, big things you did, and then comes slowly, slowly, one by one to small things you do. If you have done big crimes, life first attends to it and then comes to the second, third, fourth and the immediate actions you are doing. Because life is not attending to your immediate actions immediately, don’t think life is dead. Sometime you think if you are doing the crime today and immediately punishment doesn’t come immediately, the system does not exist. No, system is very much alive. I tell you, bringing Responsibility into your being is the best way to raise yourself to the next level of consciousness and when you bring Responsibility into your thinking, even the past mess in which you are caught melts down and you are free, you will be liberated.

37:26 Hindi - 40:10

Understand, don’t go with the flow of society always even if you know you are wrong. Many times, people do that - just go with the flow of society.

Understand, many a time when you go with the flow thinking going with the flow is right, even though your Integrity, Authenticity does not allow you to do that, you have to answer to life. Life is not going to leave you. It will hold your collar. It will hold your neck and you are answerable to your actions which you did and which you were supposed to do but you did not do. What you did and what you are supposed to do but you did not do, for both you are answerable. Till then, it’ll be a pain, pain not just on your neck, pain in your head.

Essence of today’s satsang:

Bring Responsibility, bring Responsibility into your being. Bring Responsibility into your being. That is the best way to expand your being. When you don’t have Responsibility in your being, all your actions are only Karma Bhoga. When you bring Responsibility in your being, all your actions are Karma Yoga.

And I request all the devotees who have come for Sarvadarshan, if you have any infection, not to stand (for the Sarvadarshan). Doctors have advised me. Even yesterday they have advised me not to stand for Sarvadarshan. I said, ‘No, I can’t, because my holiday quota is over!’ So, I request, if you have any infection…… Because, till that wound is healed, for the next few days doctors are saying I have to be protected.

Let you all achieve experience, live, express, radiate, share and explode in eternal bliss, Nithyananda.
