In today’s morning satsang, Paramahamsa Nithyananda (Swamiji) shares the tale of Nachiketa as a shining example of authenticity. Nachiketa was a young prince whose father was a stingy monarch. When the king made offerings to the gods he chose only shabby things to give to the sacred fire. Young Nachiketa, with the honest innocence of childhood, asked his father why the offerings were not the best quality. His father, in a rage, told the child that he could offer himself if he was not satisfied. Nachiketa agreed to save his father’s honor. Willingly he walked into the fire to meet the God of Death. When he met with Death, his first request was that his father should forgive him for his disrespect. Ultimately his sacrifice was rewarded with the gift of immortal wisdom. Nachiketa took responsibility for the faults of his father without criticizing or judging. He also felt responsible for his insubordination to his parent and his king. When human beings behave authentically, they act with energy but not with violence. Nachiketa demonstrates this beautiful conduct for humanity. | In today’s morning satsang, Paramahamsa Nithyananda (Swamiji) shares the tale of Nachiketa as a shining example of authenticity.
