Clear Your Chakras || Part 1|| Satsang || 15 Mar 2006

We have lot of mechanisms inside our body. We have many systems inside our body. If it is not put to use, not only it is not useful, it is occupying unnecessary space in our system, in our being. If you know just how to switch it on, only nothing else. Only one on, just one switch on, it is enough. The whole thing is useful. Just like that, our whole system, if you know how to switch it on the mechanisms which is in our being, the whole thing will be useful. The whole thing will turn into the utility system which you can use it for your day-to-day life.

(01:03)

When I say there are so many mechanisms which are lying down in your system, in your body without being put into use, I mean chakras. A small introduction to chakras will be able to explain what is chakras… The energy centers, you see, almost all the Ancient Masters of all the religion, almost all the great Masters of…. all the Ancient Masters of all the religion, religion which worked on the inner sciences, they speak of these chakras, the energy centers. I just brought this to show you where the chakras are situated. (Swamiji shows the diagram of chakras) I will just give an introduction to chakras. Then we will see where the chakras are situated.

(02:18)

All the great Masters of all the religion, they speak about the chakras even though with a slight change in the numbers and the placements. The idea there are energy centers in our body is accepted by all the great Masters. There are, you see, there is each and every one gland has got a chakra nearby. Those energy centers take care of the activity of that area. What they say as a gland physically, metaphysically chakras. Of course, chakras are not limited to the glands. It is not only the glands, it manages the whole area. Mainly that glands is managed by the concerned chakra. When we say the Ajna chakra, this is the energy center which controls, which activates, which manages the pituitary glands. Just like that, each and every chakra manages one, one of the glands or one, one major part of our body, our activities. Not only physical, mental, psychological, emotional and spiritual. All the layers, all the activities of your body and mind are managed by these chakras.

(03:48)

The beautiful book on these chakras are done by a great yogi called Patanjali. Patanjali is the great Master. Patanjali is the Father of this yoga science. He is the first Master who put the whole thing in a logical way, in a clear way. He describes about the chakras, how to meditate on the chakras, how to cleanse the chakras. The whole yoga science, the whole chakra science, the whole healing science originates from Patanjali. From Patanjali, the roots, the seeds have come out from Patanjali. Patanjali is the root. Patanjali is the seed for the whole science. Now the way in which I am going to explain chakras to you is the way of Patanjali. Of course, each and every Master, little bit they differ. One or two small things there will be difference. In Buddhism, they speak on the chakras, one or two small difference will be there but majority of the Masters, majority of the Enlightened people, they go with Patanjali because he is more scientific, more logical, more clear-cut on this subject. So what I am going to give you is based on Patanjali.

(05:20)

Patanjali is the great saint, great Enlightened Master who lived thousands of years ago in the place called Chidambaram. Chidambaram is the place in India where He lived and had His enlightenment. He has recorded His Enlightenment in a beautiful way called Yoga Aphorisms- Yoga Sutras. There is a book which explains basically about the whole science of yoga, meditation, whatever, like how the life should be lived, how you need to live the life if you want to have the longevity, health and bliss. He is the Father of all the postures, asanas, which we call asanas. Asana means, I think in West, it is very famous now: bending the bodies and stretching out the bodies and breathing exercises. They are very famous in the West.

(06:23)

All the yoga system, all the asanas are originally explained or created by the Patanjali. He is the Master who made all the description or clear explanation. In a way, He has done the unabridged dictionary for the yoga, yoga philosophy: unabridged dictionary, a complete collection of asanas, yoga system, mudras, meditations, chakra, about everything. And if you meditate on which chakra, in which way, what power you will get, even to that extent, He has done a deep research and made an unabridged dictionary over this science. Let Me explain about the chakras as Patanjali explains according to the system of Patanjali because what Patanjali says goes with My experience also. My experience also goes with what Patanjali says. So let Me explain it.

(07:34)

A small story. From that story, I will be able to tell you the chakras, the word chakras. After the second world war, a group of defence people, they were vacating their army camp. When they were vacating their army camp, they left a small open aircraft in one tribal village and went away. When they leave their army camps, they don’t carry everything back. Some things they carry, some things if they can’t, they leave it and go. Just like that, in one army village, in one tribal village, a small tribal village in Germany, they left one aircraft, open aircraft. Only one or two persons can sit in that. Sort of small helicopter. They left that open aircraft and went away.

(08:30)

After one or two days, the tribal people, they have neither heard about aircraft or they have not seen. They didn’t even have any idea about the helicopter. They have not even heard about tractor, what to speak of aircraft? So the whole village gathered and saw, “What is this? What is something new has come to our village?” They were not able to understand what it is and they were just going round and round that vehicle. They don’t even understand it is something called vehicle. It is something like a vehicle. So they were not able to assess what it is.

(09:11)

Suddenly one man told, “It maybe God who has come to visit our village.” And all the other people told, “No, no, no. If God means He should speak. He should give boons. It is not doing anything. It is stagnant as it is.” They refused. They…the argument was refuted. Somebody else told, “It may be some devil or the ghost which has come to our village.” Again it was refused, “No, no, no. It is not doing any harm. It is lying down there as it is.” Nobody was able to recognise. Nobody was able to understand what it is. Finally one boy came and told, “You see, bullock cart also we have a wheel.” They know only one thing: bullock cart. They use bullock cart. “Bullock cart is also having a wheel and this vehicle is also having a wheel. So it must be a bullock cart, maybe a little developed bullock cart. It must be bullock cart.”

(10:12)

When it is told with a logical way, half… the whole village agreed, “Yes, it must be a bullock cart.” So they all thought that they have discovered what it is and they started celebrating, enjoying, running around the vehicle, pulling this way and that way, pushing this way and that way. The whole village was celebrating and enjoying the new bullock cart. After one month, it went on, went on, went on. They were playing with that vehicle. They put a big bullock in front of that helicopter and they started using that as a bullock cart. Throughout the village they take round and whatever they wanted to transport, they started using this vehicle. It is going on.

(10:57)

After three-four months, one boy who has gone to a nearby village, nearby city to study, to do his school, he came back. He was a tribal boy. He went to a nearby city to do his studies. He came back and he saw the whole thing. He thought it cannot be bullock cart. It is done with so many mechanisms. He also don’t know about helicopter. He also don’t know about aircraft. He has seen only the tractor. So he thought it must be one way of tractor. It must be one kind of tractor. So he got into the vehicle and did something this way, that way. Somehow, he started it. He started and started using that as a tractor. So morning till evening, he started using that as a tractor. When the people saw it can go even without bullock, they were wondering. They were surprised, “How can it go without even bullock? It goes simply and comes back. There is no need for any bullock.” So they decided it is a bullock cart without bullock. It can simply go and come by itself. So they were enjoying the vehicle as the bullock cart for six more months.

(12:20)

After six months, one retired pilot, for some reason, for some research, somehow, he came to that village. He saw whole thing what is happening. He started laughing. Then he explained to the villagers, “See, it is neither a bullock cart nor a tractor. It is an aircraft. It can be used to fly.” First, the villagers were not ready to agree it, “What are you talking? How it can fly? It is such big mechanism. So heavy. Our body is much lighter than the mechanism. Even our body cannot fly. We cannot fly. It is more heavier than our body. How can it fly?” They asked all logical questions but the pilot told, “You see, I cannot answer your logical questions. There are lot of things which logic cannot explain but one thing I can do. I can fly and show.“ He got into that aircraft. He just took that, one round he went. He came back. He landed and then he showed, “You see, this much only I can do. Now you understand that it can fly. It’s an aircraft.” Then the whole village surrendered and asked the pilot, “Yes, now we understand. It is an aircraft.”

(13:45)

You see, the very small story. If you understand deeply, you will be able to understand your whole life. The vehicle, the aircraft is what is the thing our body. God has given this body to us. The tribal villagers have used the same aircraft as a bullock cart. The next step man used the same body, same vehicle as a tractor. Third level, pilot used the same thing as a aircraft. Same vehicle or the same instrument, one man is using as a bullock cart, another one person is using it as a tractor, the third person is using it as a aircraft.

(14:35)

The same way, God has given a same system for all of us. The body is the system. This is the system given to us by God, given to us by the Divine. We, the people who live with a normal life, very ordinary way of life: just taking birth, having their food, reproducing some more children and dying. Nothing more in their life. Just if you weigh their life, few benz, few bungalows, little bit of money, that’s all, nothing more. They take birth, do something and then they die.

(15:14)

Somebody came and asked Me, “Swamiji, why in all the cemeteries it is written ‘Born on such and such a date. Died in such and such a date?’ I told them, “Nothing worth mentioning has happened in between.” Nothing worth mentioning happens in between. Only these two are worth mentioning. Born and died, over! You see, most 90% of our…90% of our lives, 90% of the people live only in this way: born and died. Nothing worth mentioning happens in our life. So it is just a dull, dead, dragging life. When you live the life of only eating and reproducing and dying, if you have not done anything else except this, you have lived your life as a bullock cart as the tribals have used. We have lived our life only as a bullock cart.

(16:11)

We take birth in Mooladhara. Mooladhara means the lowest chakra. That is the sex center. We die in Swadhisthana, the next center. Next center is death, first center is birth. Birth and death, over! Nothing more. Nothing else. Born and died. Nothing worth mentioning has happened. Even though if you have place, nothing worth mentioning has happened. That is the one kind of life in which 90% of us live. 90% of us live only a dull, dead, dragging life. So there are next level people as a, like a young boy who used that as a tractor. There are next level of people who enter into the field of art, culture, dance, poetry.

(17:04)

When you enter into the layer of the art, when you enter into the level of heart, when you add some juicy things in your life by dancing, by singing, by painting, by….this type of artistic things, you use your system as a tractor. You expose yourself to the second layer. You come to the second level of understanding. You understand money is not the only thing to be achieved in the life. Money is necessity. It is a basic thing, okay but it is only BASIC thing. Basic things are only basic things. It is not ultimate. There is a next step to be more joyful, to make the life more juicy. The artistic things, when you add art in your life, you use your system as a tractor.

(18:03)

The third level, when you add spirituality, when you add meditation, when you add the joy, the spiritual bliss in your life, you use your system as a aircraft. The same system, the same body, the same vehicle, tribal are using as a bullock cart, the young man is using as a tractor, pilot is using it as a aircraft. The same way, God has given the same system for all of us. If you just live in a normal life, an ordinary life: taking birth, eating, drinking, giving birth to children, little bit of money, I want easy chair, then, finished! Nothing else. If you have lived that normal life, we are also using our life as a bullock cart.

(19:00)

If you go to the next level- the dance, culture, art, poetry, not for the sake of name and fame, just for enjoying the art, you use your system in a second dimension. You understand your second dimension. You go to the next level of being that is artists, where the artists live, reach. Ravindranath Tagore, the great poet like Ravindranath Tagore, the great Sthapatis, great people, great painters- all these people touch the second layer. They use their system as a tractor.

(19:41)

People who have become Enlightened, who have become God, who have become one with the God, who have had the spiritual joy in their life, spiritual bliss in their life: Buddha, Jesus, Mohammed, Ramakrishna, Ramana Maharshi, these great Masters, Ramanuja, all these great spiritual people, they are using the same system as a aircraft. They are the pilots. They are the people who show life to us. How beautifully life can be lived, what best you can have from the system, how best, how maximum can be extracted out of this system, how optimum the system can be put to use is expressed, explained by the great Masters like Jesus, Buddha, Saint Francis of Assisi, St. Thomas, all these great Masters have lived their life as a aircraft.

(20:49)

What is the difference between the tribal villagers and the pilot, tell Me! What is the difference? Only one difference. Villagers don’t know how to operate the mechanisms and gears. The pilot knows how to operate the mechanisms, that’s all. Villagers, they don't know how to operate the mechanisms. So they are using that as a bullock cart. Pilot, he knows how to operate the mechanism. He is using the same thing as an aircraft.

Clear Your Chakras || Part 3 || Satsang || 15 Mar 2006

Transcript:

(0:16)

See, we don’t say...many people come and tell Me, “Swamiji, I understand whatever You say sounds so right but in practice, we are not able to do. What to do?” This is the problem. Most of us face this problem. Do you say, “I understand if I put my fingers in the fire, I will get burnt, but everyday I want to put my fingers in the fire?” Do you say that? No! When you understand if you put your fingers in the fire, you will be burnt, clearly, thoroughly, you never go and put. If you don’t understand, then only you will go and try. Same way, if you understand these are the emotions which blocks your chakras, these are the ways which disturbs your chakras, you can verily drop it. You can understand but our understanding is not so deep.

(01:10)

Once when you put your hands in the cigarette and you get burnt, you think, ‘I think only cigarette fire burns, not the lamp fire. Let me put my finger once more in the lamp fire.’ You put your hand in the lamp fire and again you get burnt, ‘Oh! Lamp fire also burns. Let me put my hand in chimney fire and see whether that burns or not.’ So every way, everyday you try with new, new fires. When you understand all the fire burns, the time has come for you to go to the fire ground, the burial ground. The time will come you need to go to the burial ground, you need to go to the cremation ground.

(01:54)

So if you go testing every fire, naturally you will end up in the cremation ground. Nothing else. You will never understand but understand, only once when you touch some one fire, not only this fire, all fire will burn, all fire will hurt. When you understand that, your life you can come out of the sufferings. Your life will become a joyful flowering. Same way understand, not only this one problem, anything, not only one incident, anything related to that emotion, when I say that worry disturbs your Manipuraka chakra, unnecessary worry and too much of over brooding disturbs your manipuraka chakra, not only it is related to one incident, it is related to all the incidents of your life. Anything, any incident, don’t brood over too much. Don’t worry too much.

(02:55)

Just some four months ago, one middle-aged lady around forty years she is. She came to our ashram. As soon as she entered My cabin, she started crying. This happened really. She started weeping and wailing. I told her, “Why are you crying, Ma? Can you just tell Me the reason? Let Me see what can be done.” She started telling, “Oh! My son is not listening my words. He is disobedient. If the same thing happens, I don’t know he may marry on his own. He may not marry the girl whom I wanted.” In India, the son is a very good...what to say, you can earn lot through a son. If you have one son, that is enough. You can earn enough money to run your life. If you sell that one son in the market, you will get enough money to run your whole life.

(03:48)

So, “If he marries on his...if he gets married, if he decides his own life, his own partner, what will happen to me, I don’t know what will happen”. So she started crying. I told her, “You see, don’t bother. Bring your son once. Let Me talk to him. Let Me try to help him.” She suddenly told, “No, no, Swamiji. I don’t have to bring. I have already brought.” She just let a four year old boy. The son is only four year old boy. She is so much worried. She is weeping and wailing. She is telling Me, “He may marry on his own. I don’t know what will happen in future.” She is complaining so much but when I asked about her son, she just let a small kid. He is only four year old!

(04:41)

You see, we are such a great masters of worrying, even if you don’t find any reason, of course, we find some reason to worry. If we don’t find any reason today, ‘Oh! Today everything is going well. I think tomorrow something big bad is going to happen.’ That is what we think, ‘Something very bad thing is going to happen. That is why things are going smooth.’ If everything goes well, if you can’t find any reason, you just catch, you just start thinking, ‘Tomorrow there may be something very bad. I don’t know what will happen.’ We start worrying about the next thing. You see, in the initial times, you need some reason for worrying. After sometime, that becomes such a beautiful habit for you, you don’t need outside reason. Even if you don’t...you make some reason. Even if you don’t get any outside reason, you just make your own inside reason, ‘Oh! Things are going so smooth today. I think tomorrow something big bad is going to happen, something very bad is going to happen.’ Some reason you find.

(05:45)

When I say the worry disturbs the manipuraka, the unnecessary worry disturbs the manipuraka, not only in one incident, throughout your life just look, just scan your life. See where all you unnecessarily worry, where all you used too much of your worries and remove that. Remove the energy. Remove the zone. When you stop worrying, not only you stop worrying, your energy is diverted totally towards the living, towards the life. So you will have... negative accounts will be reduced and the positive accounts will increase. Both the way it will be helpful. You see, if one man comes from the opposite side of the army to your army, to your side, not only they are losing one man, you are gaining one person. So the result is two. One here one plus, there one minus, here one plus. So when you stop, when you analyse and understand these worries, the root cause of your problems, not only the opposite army is losing one man, you are gaining that energy. That energy turns and helps you in a positive way.

(07:04)

So a simple understanding itself can solve more than 50% of your problems. The maturity, understanding solves 50% and the other 50% meditation. So maturity and meditation can guide and solve major problems of our life. Our life can be transformed into a real, joyful ecstasy. As on now, life is just dragging, pulling, going on. When you know how to add meditation and maturity, if you know how to activate these energy centers, the chakras, how to breathe life into it, how to breathe energy into it, how to breathe, how to awaken those energy centers, the same life, the same routine, the same house, the same living style will be transformed, into an ecstatic lifestyle, into a anandayoga, into a spiritual life. When you live ecstatically,when you live with a joy,when you live with the bliss, that is the spiritual life. Spiritual life means not going to Himalayas. Not only simply sitting there in some one forest, no. If you live your life joyfully in a balanced way, in an ecstatic way, in a blissful way, that is what is real spiritual life. So let Me pray and bless all of you. Let you all live and be with Eternal Bliss, Nithyananda. Thank you.
