Title
Nithyananda on Yoga Sutras: Patanjali Gives Immediate Solutions first, then Ultimate Enlightenment
Narration
The Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism, Jagatguru Mahasannidhanam, His Divine Holiness, Bhagavan Nithyananda Paramashivam, expounded on the Cosmic Principles from Patanjali Yoga Sutras during the everyday live public talk - Nithyananda Satsang. In this talk entitled Nithyananda on Yoga Sutras: Practice, Psychological & Physiological Mutation, Surrender and More, The Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism shared from the chapter on spiritual practice explaining Tapas, Svadhyaya and Ishvara Pranidhana. He explained tapas as the happening of churning in you which you may or may not enjoy but needs to be experienced during your attunement towards Enlightenment. Svadhyaya, He shared, is receiving the technical information which you need to solve your immediate and ultimate problems, and Ishvara Pranidhana as surrendering to the Divine. His Divine Holiness expanded further by saying that even if the Divine does not interfere and perform miracles, the surrender, the juice and strength which He receives by the surrender is so strong He will not be shaken.

Shadashiva samarabham Shankar Acharya madhyamam asmadaachaarya paryanthaam vande guru paramparaam I welcome you all with my love and respects today we are entering into the Sutras of Patanjali which describes the sadhana pada the word sadhana need to be understood deeply and very strongly I can say the whole world is in sadhana only differences without knowing but far they are in whole world is doing sadhana human being does is sadhana one problem they start doing without knowing what far they are doing second sometimes they are doing confusing sadhana's morning they do sadhana for achieving something evening they do sadhana for achieving completely opposite goal and morning sadhana an evening sadhana is nullified the Nullification always happens with lot of are and their body becomes the place of our and stress finally destruction please understand every human being he is doing sadhana every breath is sadhana the very flow of life very flow of consciousness is sadhana all you need to do is understanding the purpose and making all your efforts and sadhana in tune with that understanding nothing else it is not that some people have more will do more sadhana to achieve something and others don't do more sadhana no every human being does enough sadhana the problem is sometime morning you do some sadhana for some purpose by evening you are doing some sadhana for different purpose naturally this side and that side being pulled and pushed you'll end up in big mess you will end up in big suffering it's very difficult to achieve anything to go forward in any direction here Patanjali does an important process clarifying the purpose to every being and giving exactly what needs to be done please understand Patanjali is the most compassionate guru endure with highest possible intellect and intelligence usually when gurus have compassion they will not have IIST possible intellect when they have highest possible intellect they will not have compassion when a disciple comes on us for some worldly objects they'll say no no no don't bother it's all ok he's coming and crying and telling his problem and you say no no it's ok let us do this something else No Budda ocean of compassion but when a lady goes to him with carrying the dead body of her son and crying Buddha also cried along with her he was filled with empathy but he only has to give advice to her diverting our attention saying go on bring handful of sesame seed from some house where nobody has died I will reveal this boy means just giving her consolation diverting her attention I am not under estimating Buddha but Patanjali wouldn't have given the kind of solution you would have said come on bring the body do what I am saying he will have him he's not only the guy with compassion guy with intellect and intelligence to customize the technique for every need customize the technique for every need guy who can really put your sadhana on track first time I think I can say last time a master spoke how to achieve whatever you want through different sadhanas that is why nobody other than Patanjali is able to give varieties of techniques Patanjali is the source of varieties of meditation techniques anything you ask a solution any problem yes solution he knows sadhana for every problem he knows solution for every problem he is not sitting with the same kind of Pisa and whoever goes on as different variety different kind and just putting the different flavors and offering no he is sitting with different products I am telling you straight away whether you go to ramana maharishi or Buddha or Mahavira or Shankara they all have a same product whoever comes they just change the flavor and supply go to Raman immersion ask about any problem will say who is asking finally you divert them - Who am I the Brahmastra now I am NOT under estimating please understand when I compare and talk about the masters and their expression I only highlight the greatness of Patanjali I am NOT degrading or disrespecting any other master I want you to understand the human mind is such it always looks into the negative side it always looks into the negative side it does not bother about the other side so I might making it very clear I am not criticizing or under estimating any other masters I am Telling You how Patanjali is totally different life of a meeting if you go and ask him I want this this this he will not tell you drop all that do this this is the highest when you don't have some other products you go on emphasizing diverting people attention towards the one product which you have it's like you go to a shop and ask I want this doll and that guy says no no this doll is much better than that doll this rice is much better than that rice please have this who knows whether he is promoting the tries just because that is better or because yes only that nobody knows if a guy like Patanjali if he goes on promoting one technique after having solution for everything I am ready to trust him but not the people who don't have so many variety go on promoting the same thing I am very clear guy like Patanjali who can give solution who workable solution result for anything you ask when he says beautifully he gives hundreds of different samyamas samyama means technique to experience the fulfillment in any direction you ask he gives you hundreds of samyamas end of everything he says all these will not help you for ultimate please go for ultimate I am ready to trust his word he is worthy of trust because he has proved to me he has solution for what I am asking then he is telling there is higher solution go for it if Buddha gives a technique for that mother to revive the child then he says it is useless come on forget about it then it is worthy we can't respond completely but straightaway he says go on bring some sesame seed from the houses where nobody has died I can accept because I know Buddha's achieved ultimate but an ordinary man who has a sharp strong logic cannot accept he will say maybe Buddha doesn't know the solution he has only the intelligence to divert the attention yes you can you can say you can say people ask me Swamiji these people who are expressing miraculous powers like materializing teleporting such a dirty thing why are they expressing all these things it is not sign of enlightenment I tell them no stop stop talking if you have the capacity to express those powers and you are not expressing then criticize them not before that not before that if you have a capacity and you are not expressing you are completely in tune only with enlightenment without expressing any of the other powers then you have the right to criticize not before that not before that please understand anybody goes to Shankara with any problem he has only one solution maybe that solution is the ultimate solution but why should everybody ask why should everybody be given always the ultimate solution which they may not want the poor guy has come just for asking few hundred rupees to run his life then you start talking suddenly you start telling all the big things and add vitamin that thomassie a humdrum ask me what the quarry will do I have seen once the old lady came to me for some stomach healing I said all right today I'll heal you I want you to come tomorrow also please come tomorrow and sit in the Kalpataru program because I'll be able to see only in the evening she came and sat in the Kalpataru in the evening when she came for darshan she started crying I asked my stomach been increased why are you crying she said no no no Swamiji pain has reduced a lot but today's Kalpataru the problem is poor old lady came for a stomach pain and these guys in the Kalpataru session started talking about quantum physics theory listening to all those theories now she has a headache instead of Kalpataru instead of stomach pain she has a headache now the poor lady came for simple solution and these guys are giving ultimate solution which goes above our head please understand finally I had the healer stomach pain and headache sometime the ultimate solution may not suit people may not want ultimate solution all the time why should you expect constantly people to expect ultimate solutions in their life no no need the men who are 24 hours in fantasy and finish all kinds of living in fantasy itself are constantly imagining about the ultimate solution whenever a couple come to me and talk to me about their problem I listen to the women's version because she will be down-to-earth and describing as it is but this guy will go on with spinning and creating different different words by the time he finishes neither he will know what is the real problem nor I will know what is the real problem because men by nature started living with several layer and they always look I have seen many people I wanted you guys to understand this very sincerely I have seen people coming and tell the moment they come near me they say I ask them you want to tell me anything they say no no Swamiji everything is ok everything is great you just bless me with your presence but the women are very intelligent they will straightaway ask me what they want they will straightaway tell me this is the problem so much then I will bless them this guy after going out naturally will chat with her what you asked and what you asked then that relevee release oh god I missed I should have asked about this problem I missed second time we will come and as for the problem you should ask why did you not tell me earlier no no I thinking if I ask about this problem what answer you will give and finally what I want ultimately I want only the solution your presence will solve so I myself came to the conclusion so I asked finally for your presence these guys instead of presenting the straight problem they have through the cerebral layer they leave all the problem and make that problem into an ultimate problem and start thinking that ultimate solution will solve the immediate problem I will move like life negating finally understand all ultimate solutions do not solve the immediate problem they only make you forget the immediate problem that is why the philosophy of advaitha is very is very suitable for male mind male brain all advaitha sampradayas do not allow women to be in their PETA's do not cater to women all advaitha sampradayas whether it is Buddhism or Hinduism or Jainism all the advaitha based sampradayas I am making a very strong statement but I am Telling I have to reveal these basic secrets because all these earthly the sampradayas make you live through all the small problems cerebrally and catch your attention on the ultimate problem and go on supplying the ultimate solution these poor fellows are constantly mesmerised and empanada is thinking all their problem is the ultimate problem and they want ultimate solution trying to struggle with the ultimate solution trying to work the ultimate solution in the life and finally fail and this women are nicely enjoying singing and dancing about Krishna and living the real spirituality that's where the final ending happens because these guys are so down-to-earth if they want sitting and seeing the master is the joy they are very straight they say this is what singing and dancing about Krishna is a joy this is the straight thing they say over they do not try to make that as ultimate problem oh because I miss enlightenment inside I crave for masters presence outside I that is the reason I crave Krishna's presence outside but any form and name will be destroyed that is not ultimate solution so I should go for ultimate solution what is ultimate solution the formless nameless experience of enlightenment so for that what is the best way masters presence let me ask the Masters presence in my life they do not do this foolish calculation they are very down-to-earth they do not live through the whole sadhana period severally unfortunately men finished their whole sadhana severally they don't walk through the path and they are already imagining their in the goal almost near the goal really I have seen every men the moment they finished reading solution for all small problems they think they across the small problems I've seen hundreds of men just by reading the solution for problems they think they already crashed those problems they those problems do not exist in them when you write book for men describe all the problems in a detail visual way describe about the solutions in a detail visual way all you need is make them read that that solve by the time they finish reading they have a complete satisfaction they don't have all those problems now those problems are solved even if it comes to have the weapon to handle it only when it comes they will know the weapon is only bookish knowledge and they are in depression problem needs to be handled as it is Patanjali is the first master who can handle feminine consciousness Patanjali is the first master who can solve the problems as they are for all men are the people with men's mind Shankara Buddha Mahavira they are the best masters for all the people who are straight direct to the problem to the core to the solution Patanjali is the ultimate master he is a straight person he is very clear are you coming to this for this problem Here I am giving the solution see I am not disrespecting Buddha's solution for that mother but I will not completely go with it if I have to face that same situation I will tell the mother very clearly I do not have solution for your problem I can sympathize empathize I can cry with you for a few seconds few moments and show that I stand by you as a well-wisher not more than that maybe if you ask for ultimate solution I will be able to give that will be the straight answer but Patanjali is a guy who can revive the child and give the ultimate solution to the mother after reviving the child he will tell now I revived but understand your attachment with this baby is going to be impermanent let the baby grow and live on his own after little time come and take sannyas and achieve enlightenment he would have given a complete solution the only difference and major difference I see between other masters and Perrin jelly's / Angelus straight humble and simple he does not hypnotize people with that ultimate diamond he's having this poor guy is coming and asking for 10 kg brinjal for his day-to-day food and you have a huge diamond you just dangled that in front of him saying that I have a huge diamond come on come on I will give you I'll give you all right with this diamond he can't have his guns we may say no no you can sell the diamond and get the money have his lunch but to achieve the diamond you want him to spend for 12 years you say after 12 years I will give you the diamond and the poor fellow what will he do for the 12 years lunch no no no it's okay you die without having lunch take one more but that time you will spend 12 years then I will give you the diamond don't you feel it is simple cheating I really feel when you go on diverting the attention of the people to the ultimate solution unable to handle and give the simple immediate solution it is cheating many times I tell people very clearly I am good at this I am not good at some of the things so those two things I'll stand by you as a friend well we shall I will go through with you that much only I am able to do not more than that many times just my compassion my love I feel the people should be told very clearly the difference between ultimate solution and immediate solutions I had I had two great teachers in my life I was able to trust them completely for the ultimate solutions because they were very clear in immediate solutions in the immediate solutions they are very clear about their abilities and in abilities because they were very clear about their abilities and in abilities in the immediate solutions I was able to trust them that they are very clear about the ultimate solutions also many time and I tell in the Kalpataru I will meditate for you I look into it I'll pray for it people try to get strong words from my mouth no no no say it will happen I tell them in this immediate solutions if I am straight and more clear then you there is a possibility you will have the trust our over me for the ultimate solution I don't want you to lose the trust far ultimate solution just based on these immediate solutions sadhana pada is a very powerful methods and techniques given by Patanjali for every solution for every solution he gives solution for every simple immediate problems he is not saying when you go and ask him 10 kg brinjal he is straight giving you 10 kg brinjal he is not saying see here I am having a big diamond you come to me and ask for simple brinjal instead of asking for this diamond when you asked for this diamond that fella will tell no no no sit for 10 days and blow your nose left and right and same may sit upside down and blow your nose for left and right and do the same thing for 24 years by the time you finish all that I may give this pure karat this diamond to you it's almost like if we should put in a small footprint if you survive all these things I will give the diamond to you No / anjali is immediate I can say Patanjali is the most compassionate master he is just compassion he understands you as you are he relates with you as you are when you understand your simple problems as ultimate problems and ask for ultimate solution please understand your sadhana will never be perfect people come and ask me I am bold and tired in sadhana Swamiji I tell them are you bold and tired when you make money when you want to when you are working for making money they say no then that is your right desire immediate desire that is the immediate solution you need there are some YouTube clipping there are some buttons very funny buttons they sit dancing money is God money is God beyond money straight they do not have any problem that is what they want so they are doing sadhana for that that's all when I saw first it what it was feeling little funny then I understood they are straight they are really working from the consciousness of Patanjali exactly what you want you work for it and you won't have tiredness if you are feeling tired when you do sadhana be very clear your problem is not ultimate problem it is immediate problem you need immediately your wife's advice you don't need my advice you need her advice you may think that is what we get too much in the house that's why we come here to get yours no I right the prescription diverted to your wife redirected to your wife because she can predict and tell you the exactly right problem you have which your mind is constantly verbalizing and making it as a server a lair and making it as ultimate problem know when you don't have a team at problem and severally you start thinking you have ultimate problem and working on the ultimate solution you will be tired bored and nothing will work ultimate solutions do not work for the people who do not have ultimate problems fortunately I had a master who was teaching in his potential yoga he was so clear he understood the value of solving the down-to-earth problems he understood the value of seeing and showing simple miracles I really feel some time that the bio-memory which I happened to be in for various reasons is not expressing the simple miracles of course it does rarely but not regularly not as a regular lifestyle some time I felt this is a drawback and same time I felt this as a safety for this body see with this expressing miracles too will happen one lot of sincere seekers laugh that simple solutions for their simple problems will be able to trust the ultimate solution for ultimate problems that's a good side of it the bad side of it is people who have only simple problems who do not want or care about the ultimate things come and settle down they create hell for the Masters body and the when they do not have the sincerity and depth they go on creating hell for his body are for his pitching are for his mission Sangha that is the other side of it but fortunately I had a master who's everyday lifestyle is expressing miraculous that was his lifestyle I remember on beautiful incident one day I was reading a Sutra from this Patanjali Yoga Sutras he was explaining about the samyama on kurma Nadi kurma Nadi is a energy special energy flows in your body if you can see the Sutra says if you concentrate on that if you do samyama on that you will have the experience of the whole cosmos you will be able to see very clearly the whole cosmos I asked how can that be just meditating on some Nadi on your body how can you see the whole cosmos he just we were sitting in a small manta bar and talking dragged my dragged me holding the sand yes exactly found the spot of kurma Nadi he just pressed it the moment we came out of that hall to the open sky he just pressed that kurma Nadi and that samyama has happened and the kurma Nadi the so sweet that spot so tasty so ecstatic automatically my whole attention fell on that spot and that samyama and the kurma Nadi and he told me like now look up it was maybe around 11 o clock daytime morning 11 o clock I could see very clearly the Sun and moon and the whole all the stars very clearly please understand I am Telling You as it happened never shocked I said oh god how can this be Benny the moment it took his hands off again the whole thing disappeared I saw simply how we see now I asked him how can this happen he said it's nothing when you put samyama on the kurma Nadi the eyeball movements stops see all of us continuously have a eyeball moment every thought which happens in you makes the eyeball move very little but sure there is a moment that subtle shaking of eyeball stops you look beyond the blue layer it stops you look beyond certain distance if that eyeball movement is arrested unstable in the Puranas there is a mention there with us gods do not have eyeball movements their eyelids do not move that is one of the symbol described for gods if you have any darshan or vision to find out the person we are seeing in the Dutchman is really God or some illusion these are the two three basic scales their feet will not be touching the ground there will not be eyeball or eyelid moment so he says I just made you do samyama on the kurma Nadi the eyeball movement stops when eyeball moment stops we can just penetrate through the layer of right light deflection our light reflection and see beyond that some now when I tell these all of you feel can't we go out of Sabha and you hold our kurma Nadi and see the sky of course I do wish to do that but somehow unfortunately that kind of bio-memory is not expressing in me at least work with a common are the mass sometime it expresses with a small group of disciples this kind of things happens I have seen this kind of miracles see this one incident has made something totally different in me that deep unshakeable vadhaka happened with that with that master just unshakable in either car naturally because he's showing directly he is not talking about sometime if you go on blowing your nose at one day something will land on you know immediate straight but even he never does all this with everybody I have seen he had at least hundred disciple disciples who are coming to me every day but I can say maybe only with two three he was closely working anyhow we don't know the reason but he was able to show the immediate solution immediate result all the techniques methods Ferran jelly describes in the sadhana pada are straight and immediate does not require 12 years as it is told to many of us by the so called teachers when these teachers themselves do not realize they go on dragging dragging dragging sometimes people come and tell me Swamiji you make things very simple and too straight I tell them I cannot help it because that is the way I learnt it that is the way I was told that is the way I imbibe so I cannot help it I am NOT making you instant coffee I must give an instant coffee so I am sharing it with you the immediate solution straight things the immediate solutions makes you understand your immediate problems and helps you to solve it if I go on talking about the ultimate solution you also start thinking all your problems are ultimate problems and land up in depression I have seen hundreds of people taking up this ultimate solution as their life and lifestyle go on living living living after some time feeling only frustrated because that is not their problem at all by the time they realize that is not their problem at all their life is over and they are into bigger problems unless I trust women seekers and their questions more than men especially the men were who are well-read because any advaitha book you read it very nicely diverts your introduct that that that this this this this this finally they prove the ultimate problem is your problem and this poor fellow anything logically prude immediately starts believing and he starts thinking that is his problem and he's sitting his problem is simple 2 kg brinjal and little bit of self raised in the salary of course I am analyzing the problems as it is all I am trying to tell you is find your problem solve your problem directly directly Mira's experience is much more solid and truthful honnest for me then the so-called advaita vedantins silence the silence of the so-called advisees can be poked you don't even need a stick just your face or a look is enough to disturb his whole silence but Mira's ecstasy and dance cannot be disturbed even by giving poison or even by putting in prison Mira was put in prison I always used to ponder analyze who are the people who have the guts to go through the religious persecution please understand throughout the history all right ease all right ease only had the bhaktas only had the guts and courage to go through the religious persecution never advaithis they are very nice politically polite people the moment they see a religious persecution they will say no no no all religions are running the same there is nothing wrong let us let us let you do this let me do that now these that they know how to sing that lalalala know advaithi had guts to go through logistic ution religious the guts to go through the religious persecution proves the depth of the experience of the person I have seen all whities bhaktas only they have the depth to go through the religious persecution look into all that way this as the way it is never get into even that level of that much of conflict the moment the argument comes either they try to win intellectually are they just relaxed and back out and they say it's okay you have the regular meal I will have the regular mean let's both live maybe I live I live as a disciple for you no problem they come to an agreement MoU but these deities because they have seen the solution for their immediate problem the strength of their experience is so strong they are ready to stand and go through the religious persecution without bending please understand in this whole scandal the fire we went through the acid test we went through the women who have a strong bhakti that writing extreme Rian's stood the whole experience the whole scandal the whole acid test even the men who have the vedic experience the bhakti experience the immediate solution immediate experience they all strongly stood and went through this whole acid test courage to face the religious persecution but all these guys who are severally planning several plans go on making the immediate solutions into the ultimate immediate problems into the ultimate problem and fantasizing the ultimate problem and planning that they have the ultimate problem and go on thinking that they will have the solution disappeared because they do not know what is immediate problem all the fellows who are hanging around me without knowing their immediate problem are without trying to have solution for the immediate problem cerebrally playing the idea of their immediate problem is the ultimate problem and hanging around with that ultimate idea they did not have the guts to go through the religious persecution they say escape come on and stuff dump and throw a little more mud and escape I tell you first know your immediate problem let you have the immediate solution then you will see when you have the ultimate problem go for the ultimate solution Patanjali is the ultimate master he is for feminine consciousness he is for feminine consciousness sometimes people ask me Swamiji many disciples have left you don't you miss them I tell them I do miss people who really had the possibility and wished me not the fellows who are constantly making their immediate problem into the ultimate problem and hanging around me for a wrong reason but I do miss some people who have been influenced by the people who were around me for wrong reasons people who are around me for wrong reasons naturally I will not be fulfilled they will have all the strong words about me and the people who are around me for right reasons when these guys swallow these words people who are around me for right reasons when they swallow the words from people who are around me for wrong reasons and gods wild and lost missed me I miss those people not the people who are around me for wrong reasons but a mahom sanded down in there 33 countries 44 lakh devotees of her gratitude to the goon on the auspicious day guru Poornima mahakal abhisheka offering of good model

If you want an immediate solution and ultimate solution, Patanjali is a solution. The Sadhana, the method of understanding your immediate problem and going for the immediate solution is described so thoroughly, so beautifully in this whole chapter. I can say again and again I have to use this same word. It can completely fulfill all possible problems of all human beings. Let Me enter into the Sutra:
atha sadhana pataha. Now the chapter of spiritual practice.
tapa svadhyaya ishvara pranidhanani kriya yogaha tapa svadhyaya ishvara pranidhanani kriya yogaha
(02:29)
Beautiful verse, I will give you few translations. Vivekananda translates, Swami Vivekananda translates this Sutra as: mortification, study and surrendering fruits of work to God are called Kriya Yoga. Thaimini translates: austerity, self-study and resignation to Ishwara constitute preliminary Yoga. Swami Prabhavananda translates: austerity, study and the dedication of the fruits of one's work to God. These are the preliminary steps towards Yoga.
(03:15)
Dwivedi translates: preliminary Yoga consists of mortification, study and resignation to Ishwara. I do not want to translate this Sutra with few words. I will give you My translation because each word I need to use lot of words to translate. I have My own unique way of translating because when you use that word, Tapaha, in this context, in this Sutra; that word can mean in 10 different ways. I wanted to use all the 10 meanings. So that you have a comprehensive understanding.
(04:06)
Just like yesterday, I was trying to explain the word Nirodhah. That one word if you misunderstand, whole life you will be struggling and wasting the life; not knowing your problem or solution. Here, I do not want to make that mistake. Tapaha,Tapaha means the suffering, even the word suffering is too small. The happening in you, the churning in you which you may, may not enjoy but has to be gone through, has to be experienced during your attunement towards Enlightenment.
(05:03)
Please understand, Tapa means the churning which you need to go through, which you need to experience. When you make yourself in tune with what you want is Tapa. If I have to put it in this way, what you want will be inside you as a seed and start expressing itself as reality in your physical bio-memory. And in the world, which you project from this physical bio-memory. When that seed from the Consciousness penetrates, opens-up, occupies your bio-memory, projects itself into the reality and sees as the world; from the seed moment to this experience, whatever process happens which you need to go through is Tapas.
(06:30)
If you love it, you call it as joyful tapas. If you hate it, call it as painful suffering. It is up to you but Tapas is this. When psychological mutation and physiological mutation crisscrosses each other happens chaos. When psychological mutation and physiological mutation is falling in tune happens Tapas. When psychological mutation and physiological mutation are going hand-in-hand parallely, beautifully happens is Incarnation.
(07:13)
Please understand, physiological mutation, what I mean by that word physiological mutation? When you grab an idea from the outer world and digest that idea constantly; make your body fall in tune with that idea without any hypocrisy. If you have completed your whole physiological system is in tune with that idea; that is what I call physiological mutation. No resistance from physiological system for that idea, it is physiological mutation. For example, Yoga, Yoga postures. You take up an idea, standing upside down, Sirsasana for 15-minutes will help me to be healthy or brilliant.
(08:19)
First there will be lot of physiological resistance. But you practice, practice, practice in few days you are able to do it. So physiological mutation of Sirsasana has happened in you. It's a one idea I am expressing. Then psychological mutation, for example, Ahimsa, non-violence. The idea is conceived in your heart and slowly, slowly, slowly constantly your heart cherishes that idea. And that compassion is filled in your whole psychological system. Finally your whole psychological system is able to respond to any situation, at any crisis, at any moment, at any question for anything; established in that compassion is psychological mutation.
(09:18)
Now the psychological mutation has happened in you with the one idea of compassion, non-violence. When this physiological mutation and psychological mutation crisscrosses each other, means the social conditioning and the cosmic understanding crisscrosses each other happens chaos. Please understand, many of your physiological mutation are related to social conditioning, They are not the ultimate truth. Many of you physio... physiologically muted based on social conditioning. You can see in your life. Even if you like to pick up something from a shop, your physiological mutation is such your hand will not stretch.
(10:15)
I am not saying you should steal, no. I am saying, giving you the simple example of physiological mutation. Many time you can see, the physiological mutation is such that the social conditionings are observed and lived. You see, the physiological mutation happening because of social conditioning always creates you...creates bondage and suppression in you, suffering in you. This physiological mutation, when it crisscrosses the psychological mutation. Psychological mutation is idea you cherished and ready to express spontaneously. The ideas which have grown in you and expressing itself spontaneously without any struggle.
(11:30)
When those ideas, when that mutation crisscrosses dips...this mutation means, when there is a fight, conflict, chaos happens in your life. When these two are trying to fall in tune with each other, Tapas happens in your life. When these two are completely in tune with each other Incarnation happens in your life; you become Incarnation. The physiological mutation, psychological mutation understand these two truths. When they are not in tune, when they are constantly fighting, chaos. When they are trying to fall in tune, coming to agreement, MOU is signed, memorandum-of-understanding is signed; then what happens in you is Tapas.
(12:25)
When the complete tuning has happened both of them are living happily. Only in the stories it happens. The word, "Ever after, they lived happily." But all movies end with that word, understand. Because after uttering that word, "They lived happily ever after," you can't show anymore scenes. If you show the scenes then you will be disturbing your own statement. You will be disapproving your own statement. Anyhow, but really, rarely these two mutations happen in one body and live very comfortably, beautifully.
(13:20)
The body in which both live very comfortably, beautifully expressing; that body only I call as Incarnation. So from chaos, you need to move to Tapas. From Tapas to the state of Enlightenment, Samadhi. So, that definition of Tapas is the physiological mutation and psychological mutation trying to fall in tune with each other; signing a memorandum-of-understanding. Then comes Svadhyaya. Svadhyaya means receiving the technical information for solutions, not just ultimate even your immediate, problems.
(14:18)
Understand? Svadhyaya is translated by many teachers as spiritual study. Relax, no. From My experience I tell you, Svadhyaya means receiving the technical information which you need to solve your immediate and ultimate problems. That is Svadhyaya. Ishvara Pranidhanani, Ishvara Pranidhana means relaxing with a deep restful awareness and unshakable arrogance. Please understand, I am using a strong word. Any arrogance based on your own intellectual understand is shakeable. The arrogance word may not be the right word, when I say unshakeable arrogance. Because lack of words I am using that word.
(15:29)
When your understand is established by the restful awareness or the relaxation into the Divine, surrendering of the Divine; you will have something called unshakeable arrogance. Ramakrishna says, "Vidya Ahamkara." He says, Avidya Ahamkara, means thinking, "I have this, I am in this post. I have this money. I have this power. I have this relationships. I am big guy." This is Avidya Ahamkara. Vidya Ahamkara means, "I belong to Krishna. I can't be cheated. I am going to rest in His space. I am at feet of Shiva and I have a direct connection with my Master. Nothing can shake me." Unshakeable arrogance.
(16:24)
I can say confidence can be a superficial word. Neither unshakeable arrogance nor the word confidence can be a complete word for the Vidya Ahamkara. I am trying to express the idea of Vidya Ahamkara but neither the unshakeable arrogance nor the confidence is the complete word. So understand this concept. The concept is, when you have the Ishvara Pranidhanani, surrendering to Ishvara; suddenly you have unshakeable, untouchable, undisturbable awareness, which even King cannot shake.
(17:20)
I was studying all the religious persecutions happened in last few thousand years in India and around the world. I am looking into the psychology of the religious persecution. Who persecutes, who is persecuted, how the persecution happens, what is the situation before the persecution and what happens usually after the persecution. And I really tell you the people who went after our organization, who did the religious persecution on us; unfortunately did not know the history of religious persecutions. Because whenever you persecute a social or political groups or organizations; their strength is reduced or they die down. But invariably throughout the history, 100%, all religious persecutions make that organization, religious organization strong and explode in all directions.
(18:40)
I am looking into the psyche of the religious persecution. I realized there is no single spiritual or religious group or organization; which reduced, lost its strength, or its intensity, or its value or its efficiency in contributing to the society, or its size, or its future in any way after any religious persecution. It's a rule because the religious personalities are not established in political or social, economical powers. Their very mental setup is Ishvara Pranidhananii, Vidhya Ahamkara. It is not Avidya Ahamkara.
(19:47)
See if the Avidya Ahamkara, "Oh, I am in this post. I am in this power. I have this much wealth. I am this." The Avidya Ahamkara always get shakened when those things are taken away from you. The Vidya Ahamkara, knowingly or unknowingly, is such cool ego. That is the right word I will use. Such cool understanding about you and the Existence and the human society and the human mind. Just, you simply know, you simply know the aftereffects of what you are going through.
(20:42)
I saw, invariably, all over the world, even if it is a brutal attack, assassination, massacre, mass murders; fortunately we did not face that level of persecution. Of course, in the modern day what we went through is equivalent to mass murder and assassination, psychological assassination. Psychological assassination, character assassination and in the modern day, in a modern way. Fortunately, the guys who wanted to persecute us, do not have that much of freedom. At least as-and-now, to hang or to create a holocaust. If they can, they would have loved to create. I know, they would have loved to do it. Because they had...have that kind of intention and intense anger.
(21:47)
They are nothing less than Hitler in their violence and vengeance. The only fortunate thing is they do not have an infrastructure for holocaust. Whatever infrastructure they had, with that they created a psychological holocaust, that's all, nothing else. But unfortunately they do not understand the psychology of religious persecution. First they need to understand the psychology of a religious personality. Only then they can understand the effect of religious persecution on religious personality. Avidya Ahamkara can be shaken, abused, brutally beaten. And any blow given will shake them, their power will be lost. Because the pillars on which they are standing will be removed. They will be just fallen. They will just fall.
(23:05)
But, the cool awareness, the restful awareness, the way these guys playing the game; amidst this whole calamity. means what! Ishvara Pranidhanani. Understand, a guy who has established in the surrender towards Ishvara can never be shaken. Because the problem is, whether it is reality or not, he is established; even if you prove to him that Ishvara is not a reality, he will not be shaken. Because the reality of the surrender and the restful awareness which experiences because of his belief in the Ishvara Pranidhana; on the...surrender to the Divine is so strong, he is not bother whether Ishvara, himself, is real or not.
(24:11)
Ishvara is just outdated from his life, he will just loses the value in his life. Just because of the restful awareness of...of the surrender- restful awareness which he experiences; by surrendering to the concept Ishvara. Please understand, I am just outdating the utility value of concept of God. When you completely relax into the restful awareness, when you experience the depth and power of surrender to Divine; you just don't need even the experience of the Divine. You just don't bother whether He really exists or not. Because this surrender experience itself is so strong, so truthful, so straight, so fulfilling, so overflowing.
(25:29)
Ramakrishna gives a very beautiful example, "When I can be satisfied just with the two-three bottles of arak. What am I going to do knowing this whole stock of the arak, which he- that fellow have...he is having in a shop? What am I going to do, taking the whole stock? How many barrels you have?" That owner is going to be, the shop owner is going to be, "Hey, what you want? Maximum 5-6 bottle, have it and go. Why are you bothered about the whole stock I have." Same way the restful awareness which you experience when you relax into the awareness of the Ishvara Pranidhana, surrendering to the God, is so strong, so palpable, so clear, untouching, undisturbable. You don't even bother whether He really exists or not.
(26:33)
There is a beautiful story, Thirunavukkarasar, a great saint from Tamil Nadu. He has another one name, Appar. He was put in prison, religious persecution. Just because of the ideas He believes, he was put in the prison. And the guys who have put Him in the prison, also believe a different ideas, different values. But unfortunately, those guys are not established in that concept of Ishvara Pranidhana, the truth of Ishvara Pranidhana, understand!
(27:21)
When one religious group attacks the other religious group; the group which is established in the Ishvara Pranidhana is always going to be successful. That group, that person is going to be successful. Here that Appar is established in the Ishvara Pranidhana. He is just relaxed in that Ishvara Pranidhana. So when he was put behind the bars and the King who punished him, expected that this guy will suffer and go through a psychological torture. And he may drop, 'His ideas are not right' and he may change his ideas into the King's ideas and opinions. He may get converted to King's religion.
(28:23)
But as I told, a person who is established in Ishvara Pranidhana, surrendering to the Divine. Even if the Divine does not interfere and perform miracles, the surrender, the juice and strength which he receives by the surrender is so strong; he will not expect Divine to do anything. He will not be shaken even if the Divine does not interfere. He is put behind bar, Shiva did not come and open the prison. He did not break the prison. He did not tell the devotee, "Come on, come out." No, but the strength of Ishvara Pranidhana is so strong, the strength of surrender is so strong. He does not bother. He does not even ask for Shiva to come and open, break. He just sits there and sings beautiful song, very beautiful song.
(29:25)
Maasil Veenaiyum Maalai Madhiyamum Veesu thendralum veengila veynilum Moosu vandarai poygayum ponradhee Eesan endhai inayadi neezhalee
I will translate, just a beautiful, undisturbed, pure music from veena; an Indian instrument, musical instrument. A pleasant evening moon shine, a beautiful, sweet evening breeze.
Maasil Veenaiyum Maalai Madhiyamum Veesu thendralum veengila veynilum
Veynil is a season. In that 6 seasons, that is a very sweet and romantic season.
Veengila veynilum Moosu vandarai poygayum ponradhee
Where the bees drink the honey from lotus flowers and just after drinking; in that kick, creating sound and running around, flying around. That kind of a lotus pond. All these put together, how pleasant you feel even by remembering. Even by remembering, He says, "That is the pleasant feeling I am having now, being at the feet of Shiva," sitting in prison.
(31:06)
He is singing this sitting in prison. Understand, this is what I call Vidya Ahamkara. The power of Ishvara Pranidhanani. When you are completely in rest with surrender, in tune with surrender to God; the Vidya Ahamkara expresses itself so powerfully, beautifully. Nothing can be shaken. People ask Me, even My own ashramites, they asked Me, "Swamiji, we really expected when you are put in prison you will do some miracle. Come out and walk and all this." I said, "Going through the whole thing, being established in Ishvara Pranidhana and showing to the world the power of Vidya Ahamkara is purpose of My Incarnation. Not just breaking few grills or walking through few grills."
(32:24)
Just getting out of the prison you don't need an Incarnation; just a lawyer is enough. Everyday lawyers are bringing thousands of people out of prison. Just to get out of prison you don't need an Incarnation. To show the power of the Ishvara Pranidhana, Vidya Ahamkara you need an Incarnation. This time I took the powerful job, most important job of showing the importance of Vidya Ahamkara. That is much bigger lesson which need to be told to the world than how to come out of the prison.
(33:08)
For those lessons you don't need Incarnation, few rowdies and thugs are enough to teach you those lessons; "How to come out of prison." All you need is simple few instruments. How to cut the bar and come out. You don't need an Incarnation to teach that lesson. People were asking Me, "No, no Swamiji, when this scandal broke out we should have shown our resistance. We should have dut...done some protest." I said, "Array, to do some protest and to throw some stones, you don't need an Incarnation. Just few rowdies and thugs are enough. To create chaos you don't need an Incarnation. How to handle the whole thing, silently, established in Ahimsa. For that you need Incarnation, let Me do My job, let Me do My job. Let us not do somebody else's job. Let us be very clear.
(34:14)
They were asking Me, "No, no Swamiji, at least legally we should take revenge." I told them, "Array, I just assumed human body for this itself, these guys have tortured Me so much; or tried to torture Me so much. That tendency of the human mind is taking revenge. If I assume human mind also what will happen?" I don't want to assume human mind, assuming the human body what I went through, enough. I don't want human mind, relax. Just to show the power of Ishvara Pranidhanani, spiritual leaders, Enlightened Beings, Saints and Sages and Rishis, Masters, Incarnations; go through religious persecution. They go through religious persecution just to show the world the strength and power of Ishvara Pranidhanani.
(35:31)
So, now all of you know what is Tapas, what is Svadhyaya and what is Ishvara Pranidhana. Just add these three in your life, you will be doing Kriya Yoga. Patanjali says, "This is what is Kriya Yogaha." So, imbibe these ideas. Let these become your physiological mutation and psychological mutation. Let you live, achieve and radiate Enlightenment. Let you all live, achieve and radiate the Eternal Bliss. Nithyananda. Thank you.
