Love The Door To Divine ||Part 2||
Description
In this video Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism HDH Nithyananda Paramashivam explains You cannot connect to the Divine through fear or greed. Even if you cry no relationship can happen. Through fear you cannot relate with the Divine. Worry will block the Manipuraka chakra and cut off the flow of Divine energy
A Rishi and his son were in the forest. The King came for healing only his son was there. His son healed the King by asking him to chant Krishna's name 3 times and the King got healed . The confidence that comes just by knowing God is taking care makes greed, fear and worry redundant.

One man who has, who has lived throughout his life as a atheist, at the end somehow a small accident happened in his life. He has fallen from a cliff. He is just holding a tree, the root of a tree and shouting for help and he saw that root is also slowly coming down. When he saw he is going to die, he thought anyhow I am going to die. Why not give a small chance to God? Why not give a small trial? He shouted. He shouted with all his being, “Oh God! Throughout my life I never believed you. Now I will believe you. Please somehow save me. Save me. I will believe you.” God from above he told, ‘Alright I will save you, don't worry. Let go your hand. I will hold you. I will take care of you.’ Immediately he shouted, “Is there anybody else who can save me? Is there anybody else who can do something for me?”
(1:45)
Whenever you relate with the Divine through fear, you end up in the same way. Neither through greed, nor through fear you can relate with the Divine. You may try your best, but relationship can never happen.
(2:05)
One captain and his subordinates, three persons, all the four were travelling in a ship. Suddenly the storm has attacked the sea. The ship has started shaking. They felt total insecured. What to do? The captain started praying fervently. Oh God! Somehow save us. If you save us we will stop smoking. But God is not listening for the prayer. Still the ship is shaking. After ten minutes they started praying. God! please somehow save us. We will stop drinking. No answer. Still it is shaking. It is becoming only worse. He started shouting, Oh God! please save us somehow. We will stop womanising. The subordinate colleague told keep quiet, keep quiet, don't shout much. I think a small island is seen. We could see small island. Please don't go to that extent. A small island is seen. Through fear when you relate with the Divine, you can never relate.
(3:40)
Next through worries - Manipuraka. You try to relate with the Divine for the sake of your peace, for the sake of your silence. Now you will enter into a new phase. You will be able to relate. Fear and greed will never open the door to the Divine. Asking for peace will just allow you near that vicinity. Of course, just if you ask for the peace, you can't enter into the temple of God, but you can enter that vicinity.In a way, it is like a, you will not have the citizenship but like a green card, you will have a green card. Asking for peace is like a green card. You will be under the trial. You will be under the watch. But a good step; You will be allowed to park but not to enter into the temple.
(5:00)
When you ask for the next step, creativity, the throat. Through creativity you can relate with the God. Relating with the God through creativity. Now only first you will be entering into the space of the Divine. That is why, you can always see through art, through dance, through poets, through poems, you can relate with the Divine very well. Then through offering your money. I have seen in India, people who pour all their wealth on the temples. They will be pouring the wealth getting the only, getting only the blessings of the priests. Never the God. Person who pours his being, his emotion, his creativity, person who writes poems, person who creates dances, person who creates painting for the God, I have seen always they relate with the Divine, they get the blessings.
(6:13)
Whenever you pour the wealth, you get blessings of the priest. Whenever you pour your being, you get the blessings of God. I have always seen people having great satisfaction and blessings. In our ashram also, when they come and do some service, creativity, some way of spending the time, they go with more satisfaction, more benefit and more result than the persons who pour the wealth. Of course, when you pour the wealth with humility and humbleness, you spend the time also. You spend the heart also. Whenever you put only the money not the heart, you try to relate through the Divine, to the Divine through greed and the fear. Only when you put your time, only when you put your creativity, only when you do something for the Divine, you try to relate to the Divine through the plane of creativity.
(7:28)
You can always see throughout the ages in the spiritual histories, not only in Hindu tradition, in all the tradition, the spiritual figures, if you take their lives, if you take and read their backgrounds, the person who build the temple, spending his whole country, he will never be considered as a spiritual figure. But the person who went there and sang ten lines on that Lord, he will become a spiritual figure.
(8:01)
In South India, there are saints who went to the temples. They spent all their lives going around, seeing all the temples, and chanting stotras or singing songs. The person who built the temple, spending his whole life, whole money, whole energy, whole country. He is never considered as a spiritual person. But the person who just visited the temple and sang about the Shiva, sang about that Muruga, few words, few lines is considered as a spiritual figure.
(8:41)
The person who built the church is never cared. But person who prayed, he was always considered as a spiritual figure. So creativity can open the first step for you to the Divine. Then comes ultimately the ego. Of course, through ego you try to relate with the Divine. Two things you need to understand. When I say ego you should understand two things. The very idea ego itself should not be condemned. The way in which you use your ego only in that way, either it should be praised or condemned. The ego itself cannot be condemned. Ramakrishna says, if you have the ego that I am the servant of God, it will never harm anybody. That type of ego can never disturb anybody.
(9:58)
A small story from Bagavatham. You need to understand. Once a saint was living in a forest. His son was also living with him. The saint has gone out to take bath and do meditation. At that time one king came to ashram for the sake of blessing. The son of the Rishi, the son of the saint was staying there. He asked the king, ‘What for you came?’ The king said, ‘I have a skin disease throughout my body. I wanted the blessing of the rishi, sage. So I came here.’ Son said, ‘Chant Krishna's name three times. Chant Krishna's name three times.’ I think it has started chanting. As soon as I told...as soon as I told it has started chanting. ‘Chant Krishna's name three times. Then you will get rid of the disease.’ The king also chanted Krishna, Krishna, Krishna and miraculously the disease has disappeared. He has gone.
(11:38)
In East, the prayer healing is very popular. Of course, just twenty years ago the west has understood: The prayer can do miracles. I read in a book written by the Deepak Chopra. He says, twenty years ago they did a research on hundred patients. They took up hundred patients from different culture and from different background. They did research. How prayer can help a man to come out of his disease. They say all the hundred cases proved, at least fifty to hundred percent. From fifty, minimum of fifty percent, maximum of hundred percent...patients recover from after surgery. From after any surgery or after any problem. Fifty to hundred percent they recover just by prayer. Of course report is amazing. But he says the study has proved the power of prayer on a patient. It is not that the patient and the man who prays should be even related in any way. There are discoveries says one or two amazing things. The patient and the person who prays there is no need even they should have any relationship.
(13:22)
And the third thing, when a man prays in his own system so much of change happens, his immune system gets strengthened. Whenever we pray for somebody, not only he gets healed, your immune system gets strengthened. He says prayer is a journey into Consciousness. Thousands of years ago East knows the truth. Just twenty years ago West has discovered by the research. The scientist, the persons who recorded this research after a much reluctant feeling, after the...what to say...long discus...discussion, even after the long discussion, they were reluctant to publish the report because it is something totally new. How can you simply say a prayer can do so much in the system! But the study says it is true. No other way. Once they published the report then only the prayer has gained very big popularity in the west. Of course now the west also understands, the prayer can do miracles for healing, for recovery of the patients, recovery of anybody. Anyhow the son of the saint, the son of the rishi told the king chant three times Krishna's name and he will be healed. The king chanted and got healed and went away. Father came to him. As soon as the father came to the ashram, son was too proud...too pride by the miracle done by him. He went and told the father. Father, like this the king of this country came. He had a skin disease. I told him chant Krishna's name three times. He chanted. He got healed. The skin disease disappeared. He has gone back to the palace. He will come afterwards to take your blessings. He has gone back. He was too proud, too happy, too joyful that he has performed a big miracle.
(16:02)
As soon as the father heard this, he was totally entered into the mood of anger and he just looked at the son and told, “Fool, what you understood? Only this much you understood in my teachings? For ordinary skin disease you made that fellow to chant Krishna's name three times. Three times, he can cross the whole life. He can become Enlightened. He can go to directly moksha. For ordinary skin disease you made him chant three times. Then what is your understanding about spirituality? Only once is more than enough. If it is a disease, there is no need even for him to chant. You just chant, if he listens that is enough.” And in his mood of anger, he curses the son. You have no faith on Krishna's name and finally the son goes to do more tapas, to understand, to have more faith in Lord's name. And he was sent to the forest to continue his tapas. He cannot be now accepted into the home. Go and do tapas to understand and come.
(17:34)
This story can show even through ego you can relate. The rishi has got solid ego. He is angry. But with a different reason, with a different understanding. The gopis used to tell, the Krishna's beloveds, that even Yama cannot touch us. Even Yama cannot do anything to us. Because we have touched the feet of Divine. We have touched the Lord's feet. When the Krishna's feet touches our head, Brahma's handwriting disappears. They say when the Lord's feet touches, Brahma's handwriting is erased or wiped. It is changed.
(18:27)
The ego will attach to the Divine. Ramakrishna will tell Vidhya Ahankara. The ego of Divine. If you feel you are son of Divine, your being is related to the Divine, the ego also can lead you to the Divine. The next step, it can make you relate with the Divine. Finally the Sahasrara Chakra, the ultimate energy centre, if you understand the emotion, the each emotion I am explaining is related to one one chakra- muladhara-greed, swadhisthana-fear, manipuraka-worry, anahata-attention, vishuddhi-creativity, ajna-ego, the sahasrara-Bliss. Bliss can directly open the gate to the Divine, door to the Divine. Bliss can directly put you into the Divine. When I say Bliss, I mean your being in love. You need to understand, love has got two dimension. Love as a act. And love as a being. Love as a act is a love as you understand. As you understand a normal love. Love as a being is Bliss. Love when it relates with others, it is love. It’s a relationship. When it is by itself, it is Bliss.

Human beings have a total misunderstanding about the body and its connection to Love, Emotion, Mind and Being.
Actually none of us Love ourselves. Body is natural, the mind is societal conditioning. We do whatever we want and finally blame our body for the joy it experiences when the physical desire is fulfilled. We destroy our body with blame and shame instead of allowing our being to blossom into Divine Bliss. In this way we allow our societal conditioning to hijack our natural progress on the path to enlightenment.
