Description
In today’s morning Satsang, Paramahamsa Nithyananda advises us to do self-completion with SDHD - self-doubt, self-hatred, and self-denial before asking any boon. Otherwise, we are not sure what we really want because we are in confusion, wasting our energy in self-assertion – trying to convince others of our worth. Self-completion with SDHD gives us the clarity, self-confidence and energy to achieve whatever we want.

(02:42) Today I will continue to expand on Kalpataru. Man has, without even knowing what he wants; does not wait for the maturity to happen even to understand what is going to fulfill him, what is going to make him happy. And he thinks what he wants, he wants even if it is going to be suffering, even if it is not going to be joyful. Sometime that is what is surprising us. So, then man really does not want for the sake of want. He just wants to prove by wanting he is powerful. His ego “If I want I get it”.
(3:47) Please understand, many time I have seen... I will give you one example. Child comes and asks “I want 10000 ice creams.” Naturally, the 10000 ice creams if the kid eats everything, he is going to get diabetic and cold and all diseases. Instead if we advise the kid, you see, “What for you are asking ice cream? The sweetness, the joy you experience. So, ask directly that as a boon. Let you always have joy and sweetness; sweetness in your tongue and throat and the joy which comes because of it.” Child won’t accept. He will say “No I want only the 10000 ice creams.” And all the side effects which it brings - disturbance in the health or whatever. And he knows he will not be able to eat 10000. He can’t cross 11th ice cream. Maximum he may be able to have 10 or if it is like a challenge or competition he will go up to some 50-60; not more than that. The whole remaining 9900 are going to be wasted. Neither he is going to enjoy and instrument through which he is going to enjoy is also going to be destroyed once for all. That is exactly the mentality with which we human beings ask. And we are not ready to listen any advice about what we are asking. We are very straight.
(05:42) I have seen people asking Me, “If you are capable give what I am asking. I don’t want your advice. If you can, bless and give what I am asking. Stop with it! Don’t talk more than that. Quickly either you give tathasthu or I will go to next shani mahatma temple is there. I will go there.” It is now like a buyer’s market. It is no more a seller’s market. The boon, spiritual benefits, all this has become now buyers’ market. Buyers choose from where they want to get. So, they do not want you to give any advice.
I am seeing some more cities joining – Indrani New Jersey and New York Varanasi. I welcome all of you. Yes. Let’s continue.
(06:37) Human beings does not use their intelligence and does not want intelligence when they ask for something. Please listen, not wanting for intelligence is also self-denial. It means what? You are really not interested in enjoying but you are interested in just proving your powerlessness as right. This kid says, “No I don’t want the sweetness in my throat give me only 10000 ice creams”. Then what it means? He is only just interested in proving to everyone “See I have 10000 ice creams.” Nobody wants intelligence. But I tell you a little bit of intelligence... I am not even taking you to some impractical level, what you think as impractical level. In a very practical level, if you think with basic intelligence, if you look in with a basic understanding, that is enough. A common intelligence if you can use that will do so much to your body and mind and being.
(08:30) Please listen, completing with self-doubt and self-hatred and self-denial frees you from so much of energy being wasted in unnecessary direction of just self-assertion. Please understand, so much of your energy is wasted just to assert yourself to others; which is not required. Because you have so much self-doubt about you, you want to strengthen yourself, feel powerful by proving yourself to others. No. If you want to feel powerful towards you, if you want to feel powerful with you, complete your self-doubt. That is the easiest method. Instead of touching the nose like this you try to do all gymnastics to touch your nose. No need. Listen. Feel sure about you by completing with your SDHD - self-doubt hatred denial. Feeling sure about you is not going to happen by proving yourself to others because the more you prove yourself to others, the more doubt you will start developing inside you – “I am convincing everyone but why I am not able to convince me? I am convincing everyone but why I am not able to convince me?” Self-doubt, self-hatred, self-denial - this three completely makes you travel in the wrong direction. You are thinking you are going to Haridwar, you are going to reach to Haridwar, but you are travelling towards Delhi! What will happen? Yes, you will reach Haridwar. When? If you go round the whole world one circle and come back. Is that going to happen? Before that you may not be alive; because there is no road to go round the whole world. Still human beings are not able to make a road to go round the whole world.
(11:15) Listen. The first and foremost crime SDHD does to you is making you believe you will be powerful only if you assert yourself with others; which is not true. Many of you have asserted yourself in many ways to many people. Did that bring you powerfulness? Did that make you feel sure about you? No. Did that bring you self-confidence? No. The SDHD only became more deeper and deeper. Understand, most of your desires are not for your joy. Most of your desires are just to make yourself assert in front of others. All these brands are nothing but trying to assert yourself to others; the brand perfume, brand belt, brand suits, brand car; because for brand you pay 20 times more money. The same shoe in the street - 100 rupee, if it in the glass case with the brand - 2000 rupee; whether it’s a car or a suit or a tie or a coat or a perfume, the brand. Why you always go for brand? Because you are not even bothered about your joy. Sometime that brand may not even be comfortable for you may not be exactly fitting with your requirement. But you say it’s ok it’s ok it’s ok; because most of the time your desires are not for your joy. It is just to assert yourself in front of others.
(13:33) I tell you please listen. If you just complete with your SDHD - self-doubt hatred denial, suddenly you will have so much power. Your life will be so smooth. Your life will be really intelligent. Your life will be brilliant. You will not be wasting your time and energy in the wrong directions. Blessed are those who work only for their goals. Blessed are those who work only for their desires. Cursed are those who are travelling in the wrong direction and pressing the accelerator more fast and fast. If your direction is wrong, more fast or more fuel, more pressing of the accelerator - is any of this going to reach you to your goal? No. Self-denial, self-hatred and self-doubt - it just makes you think ‘only by asserting yourself in front of others you are going to feel powerful.’ No.
(15:00) Being sure about you, you are going to feel powerful. That will happen only when you complete with SDHD. Listen, being sure about you; I have seen always in My life, people who are sure about themself they cause good things to people, they enrich people, they cause all the best things to people, they cause enlightenment to people. Please listen, causing enlightenment, being sure about you means ability to galvanize all your powers towards what do you want - ability to galvanize your intellect, your emotion, your body, your mind, your words, everything towards your declared goal, towards your declaration. That is what I mean when I say being sure about you.
(16:20) Please listen, many time we complete with our self-doubt, self-denial, self-hatred. But suddenly we get a self-doubt ‘how do I know whether I completed or not? Will I really be able to complete with my self-doubt? Yes, I may complete now but after 2-3 days I may forget that I have to complete with my self-doubt.’ How many of you have all these? These are all the layers and layers of self-doubts. This is what I mean not being sure about you.
Galvanizing all your abilities - intellectual, emotional, verbal, physical, mental; galvanizing all your abilities to complete with your self-doubt hatred denial. Please listen that is what enriches you and enriches others. Listen, being sure about you, galvanizing, ability to galvanize your words, intellect, emotion, being, everything to achieve what you want to achieve. Being sure about yourself is what I call ‘self-confidence’.
(18:03) The Self-Doubt, Self-Hatred and Self-Denial does not allow you to be sure about you. See, actually if you try to prove yourself in front of others and through that try to be sure about you, it will only lead to more and more fanaticism. I have seen, fanatics are the people who don’t believe in the ideology what they preach. No really; they shout so loud they want to silence not only others they want to silence their own self-doubts. In any field, they scream so much. Not just to convince others, to convince himself.
(19:02) A preacher goes to a swami and says, “Swamiji please help me I lost faith in the God.”
That swami asks the preacher, “Then why are you preaching?”
“By the time I lost faith I already created faith in God in so many 1000s of people. Now I have to maintain all of them.”
Please understand fanatics always suffer like this. Fanatics try to convince others without they getting convinced. That is why the fellow who suddenly became rich who is still not sure about his wealth and his richness, whether it will stay with him or not and all that, only he does big show. Understand, big car, you will see too much of smell of money around him. People who are very sure about their wealth you won’t find smell about money, smell of money around them. They will be there. It’s not that they will be poor. All the best things will be there around them. But you won’t see the smell of money around them.
(20:27) So, listen, being sure about you happens by self-completion - completion with your self-doubt, self-hatred, self-denial; not by convincing others. Listen, ability to be sure about yourself is what I call liberation. If you are sure about your goal and your ability to reach, that is liberation. Listen, first thing do self-completion, completion with your self-doubt hatred denial before asking any boon. Only when you complete with your self-doubt hatred and denial – SDHD, you will even be sure about what you want. Listen, many time what you want in your life is just to assert yourself in front of others, not for your own fulfillment. By the time you are ready with asserting yourself in front of others, those others will not be there in front of you. By the time you prepare everything to assert yourself in front of your classmates, the classmates have gone. You are married and they are married. By the time you are equipped to assert yourself in front of your neighbors, the neighbors are gone. So you go on running, running, running from street to street asking people, “Hey, wait, wait, wait, I wanted to show about me!” But they are walking fast. The most pathetic, pitiable condition is the person trying to show and people who are supposed to be seeing does not even care and just walk. I have seen this in the San Francisco beach. Many people will have different, different, make-ups just to show off; and the other people in the street will not even bother about them, they will just walk. They will say give one dollar to take a group photo. No! Who wants photo! They don’t even want to see. Understand, most of the time, to whom you want to show is not interested in seeing you.
(23:22) First, complete with the Self-Doubt, Hatred, Denial, so that you don’t waste your life without being useful to yourself or others. You want to show off and prepare everything, suddenly you see the other person is not interested. What happens? Then your whole life is waste.
So, I can see some more cities now. Ohio Prayag, St. Louis Tirumala, Peethadeeshwaris training center Salem, and Temple City California. Great. So, I welcome all of you with My love and blessings. Now I can also see Bidadi. Today is Vaikunta Ekadasi, the day the doors of Vaikunta are kept open for anybody who walks in! So, in the Vaikunta Ekadashi, Venkateshwara the Vishnu is gracing. Now you can have the darshan of Venkateshwara. If you are not able to see, it’s ok. See in My eyes, I am seeing, so He is in My eyes. See in My eyes. Blessings, that’s all. (24:50)
