Description
28th March 2012 Morning. In today's morning satsang, Paramahamsa Nithyananda (Swamiji) gave guidelines for how to live enlightenment, especially for the next generation. We become completely clear within ourselves about what we wish to be to ourselves and to others, what we wish to accomplish and how we intend to achieve our visions. This model allows us to act out of blissful confidence and to draw upon a limitless reservoir of stamina, since we are conflict-free. The assurance of our inner knowing radiates joy to all around us. We soak our environment in the highest frequency of positive energy.

Swamiji can you please talk about NewGen.
How I want new generation to be. Rather I can say, what kind of new generation I am going to create because I don't stop with want to be, I just create what I want. I never stop with idea, I want this, I want that. And expect somebody else to take the responsibility. No, I want new gen to be completely stable and established about their identity with themselves, experientially, about their identity, with the people with whom you are living, about the identity, you're with the human society and the universe. New generation should be very clear about themselves, what they want to do, what they are feeling like doing. The problem is many time, what they are feeling like doing they know. What they want to do they don't know. Or how they are going to do, they don't know. What you are feeling like doing. What you want to do, how you are going to do. The whole thing should be in aligned.
New generation should be very responsible about what they are creating around themselves. Not just constantly fighting with others, or fighting with them self. Not just constantly cribbing about the world. See modern youth means constantly complaining. Deeply dissatisfied. Feeling miserable, unfortunate about the whole world. That is what has become modern day youth. See the common picture of modern youth. Depressed, drunk, dying.
Youth was never, in this mess, ever, earlier in the planet earth. Because all the mechanisms, which gives little bit of training, for the youth, from the young age, is completely broken. One unfortunate thing, because of that, you guys stand as policy orphans, Identity orphans, Cultural orphans. One fortunate thing is, because of this, you can become enlightened.
One unfortunate thing, because of this, all the mechanisms which trains people are broken, you become identity orphans, Cultural orphans, policy orphans. You walk in front of huge temples. Which the whole country has built, but you do not even know why it is standing, what it means. What it means for your society.
The other day one devotee came to me. Not devotee, a youngster, came to me. And he was telling about some problem. I asked him you are from where and all that. He said in the Madurai. South our side, the temple south our side. I asked him where you are, he gave a internet café's name and he said next to that house. I could not understand the internet café, I asked are you saying in the street where the south street board is there and the huge temple tower. There is a board, south tower. And after 10 min of conversation I realize the place where he is saying is the same thing. Where that big board is there on the tower. He has never seen that board, but he knows the internet café. The internet café is a small one room with one small board. He has seen that but he has never even looked up with awareness towards the tower where the huge board is there, south tower.
Does this fellow know, for 500 years the whole paandiya kingdom was building that building? If the whole kingdom is planning and building certain building then whole kingdom is obsessed with that concept. Of course, I should not be using the word obsessed maybe I should use the word devoted. Yes you guys can see this photograph. Exactly this is what I was telling. This huge board he has never seen. Same tower same board, there is a huge board you see, saying south tower. The fellow has seen the internet café just below this tower, so many times. But he has never seem this board. South tower and he has been living there for at least last 5 years.
The new generation has become identity-less. Cultural orphans. One side it is unfortunate you become cultural orphans. Other side in a way it is fortunate you can be easily led to enlightenment. You can move towards enlightenment. Basically, en living is newgen living. Enlightened living is new gen living. All over the country I want akhadaas to happen. Means the place where people practise the techniques for yogic body and vedic mind. Understanding the relationship issues. Not just relationships with people, relationships with the whole. New gen is my only hope. Next generation should be new generation or it is going to be degeneration.
