[00:11:28] I am so happy to welcome Swamiji, and ask for his blessings today. Let’s receive his blessings on his birthday, 84th birthday, then enter into the satsang.

[Tamil speech by Sri Thiruvambala Jnanaprakasha Desika Paramacharya Swami]

[00:16:10] We thank Thondaimandala Aadheenam 232nd Guru Mahasannidhanam - my Kulaguru, for being with us in Bengaluru Aadheenam on his 87th birthday. Sorry Swamiji, I was informed 84th but now Swamiji corrected - 87th birthday. We pray to Paramashiva: Swamiji lives long, guides us in every way. Swamiji, Thondaimandala Aadheenam 232nd Guru Mahasannidhanam, Thiruvambala Jnanaprakasha Desika Paramacharya Swamigal.

[00:17:06] Actually, we both know each other for last 40 years, because we are from same family. Swamiji’s purvashram family and my purvashram family is same family. And, we are from same family tree. And Swamiji took Sannyas in 2000 and become Peetadhipathi of Thondaimandala Aadheenam. And I started the Nithyananda Sangha in 2000. Swamiji came and inaugurated the Nithyananda Sangha actually. If you see the photographs, Swamiji came and personal inaugurated Nithyananda Sangha in Erode, the public function. And also inaugurated the Tiruchengode Aadheenam personally. He is the … guide, philosopher, Guru, Godfather, everything for me and the sangha for last 20 years. And, … we offer our respects to Swamiji. Humble pranams. Thank you Swamiji for being here, blessing and helping, supporting in every way. In 2000, Swamiji came and inaugurated Nithyananda Sangha in Tiruchengode. It's a relationship of 20 years. Actually 40 years of pre-monastic relationship, 20 years of relationship after Swamiji became Peetadhipathi, the Sannidhanam, Guru Mahasannidhanam. And, ... thank you Swamiji for being here.

[00:19:35] Let’s enter into today’s satsang. [technical glitch] Sorry for the technical glitch. Let me continue the satsang. Listen carefully. I was expanding last few days on this great truth: your whole biology thinks. I want to tell you, ... when my Guru - Raghupati Yogi, when he was teaching me levitation the whole process, he was using few powerful cognitions: one was this - your whole biology experiences, thinks. Another one visualization he was using: that blissful fish in the Cosmic ocean.

[00:21:34] First let me explain one by one, the whole process he took me through. He used to get the neem personally. The neem leaves, the fresh small new leaves. We call it in Tamil: kozhunthu (கொழுந்து), veppankozhunthu (வேப்பங்கொழுந்து). It used to taste so much even now I feel saliva in my tongue when I remember. Remembering neem leaf and having saliva in your tongue, you will have the best health, I tell you. Usually people have saliva in their tongue only when they remember some tasty food. Unfortunately you always have been taught and made to believe - all the unhealthy food as a tasty food. Blessed are those who are made to believe healthy food as tasty food, and for whose biology responds to healthy food.

[00:22:47] See, ... all tasty but unhealthy food when you remember, your biology responds. You have the saliva in the tongue and all that. In me, the moment I uttered that neem leaf, fresh veppankozhunthu, I am seeing saliva in my tongue, and, I have to swallow the saliva to talk further, to continue speak further. Thanks to my Gurus. Thanks to my Gurus, made my biology believed healthy food as tasty food. He will actually make the paste of that veppankozhunthu, the fresh neem leaf using the stone, grind and make a paste and add little, very little turmeric, and mixed that with water and make me drink as juice. Same way, he will make cukku (சுக்கு). In the evening time, he will make milk and cukku. Cukku is ginger - dry ginger. I should use the right word: the dry ginger. He will make the … dry ginger milk. He had his own beautiful way of ... making all these and training me. Understand, ... the extraordinary love with which he used to prepare … my body to manifest all these powerful cognitions … is something extraordinary.

[00:24:52] Every day, exactly on time without missing integrity, he will give me the … necessary aushadhas. We had a eye witness who was there at that time, who makes the flower garland in Tiruvannamalai Temple. He shared his experiences with us. We have that video. You can see it later. Now let me explain the whole … training I underwent from my Yoga Guru - Yogi Yogananda Puri. My Adi Saiva Guru, teacher - Panduranganar: he was initiated by Thondaimandala Aadheenam. That time the Sannidhanam, I think maybe 229th or 230th Guru Mahasannidhanam initiated him. I also had Samaya Deeksha, all the initiation from 230th Guru Mahasannidhanam. I think Panduranganar had maybe 229th or that … from Thondaimandala Aadheenam only he had initiation. Raghupati Yogi, my Yoga Guru: ... he used to have the help of my Adi Saiva Guru - Panduranganar to read all these … original Siddha’s scriptures and make this aushadha. So Panduranganar will send a slip, what all is needed and what time it should be given. Raghupati Yogi will follow that slip with such integrity. Extreme integrity! I learn integrity from them. Understand.

[00:27:33] One day, ... listen, this is a too important incident. One day, ... I was sitting with the … Raghupati Yogi. And he already gave me the today's aushadha, that day’s aushadha and I took that aushadha. I was sitting with him. He was waiting for me to have that aushadha settle in the body so he can start the next process. Somebody came and complained to him, that … see every day morning, Raghupati Yogi will do puja. For his puja, I have to collect flower and bring flower for his puja. He came and complained to Raghupati Yogi that err … I stole flowers from Arunachaleswarar’s share. See they kept the flower for Arunachaleswarar. And the accusation, false accusation was, that I stole flower from Arunachaleswarar share and brought it for Raghupati Yogi’s puja. I was shocked because I can never imagine touching Arunachaleswarar’s flowers or whatever was kept for Arunachaleswarar. I can never imagine, it was a ... big false accusation. That person came and told. And, I was shocked but err … I was so sure that Raghupati Yogi will not believe it. He knows about me and he will not believe. But I did not expect Raghupati Yogi just made his … finger kai mushti, like this he made and punched my stomach.

[00:29:36] Listen the story. He just punched my stomach directly ... without even listening to my side story. I’ll tell you exactly what happened. I just jumped and fell on him and hugged him. Saami! That was my reaction. Vomited the whole aushadha he gave that day on that fellow who came to accuse me. I fell on my Guru and hugged him and vomited. The punch was really hard. Vomited the whole thing, on that guy who came and gave a false accusation. Immediately I got up and said, “Let me clean up him, clean him up. I vomited on him. Let me clean him up.” I saw tears in the eyes of Raghupati Yogi. He was having tears! I said, “What happened?!” Actually, he hitting me did not ha... affect me. But tears in his eyes shhh… really shook me! I said, “What happened?!” He said beautifully, listen, listen to this conversation. He said, “When you are falsely accused, when I am attacking you, how you flare up and how you react I need to know. Because, the Guru is going to come to you.” I was shocked. “What?! Guru is going to come to me, then who are you?” Raghupati Yogi is here and Raghupati Yogi telling me that Guru is going to come to me.

[00:31:37] Only then I came to know, within next few months Arunagiri Yogishwara appeared and gave me darshan and started training me. Now I know, how my Gurus have prepared me step by step. Understand, you need to know this very clearly. He told me, “When somebody accuses you falsely, I also punish you without even hearing your side of the story, when you know injustice is done to you - how you react, how you flare up and react I want to know.” You cannot flare up and react in anger towards Guru even if Guru is falsely punishing you, falsely accusing you only then you are ready to receive the real Guru, the Satguru, Jnana Satguru, Jnana Guru - Arunagiri Yogishwara is going to come. You need to be prepared. Understand, I tell you, he did not tell me Arunagiri Yogishwara name and all. He said, “Guru is going to come. Big Guru is going to come. I need to prepare you.” From that day, he made me read Guru Gita. I started reciting the Guru Gita from that day; he said, “I am absolutely convinced you are qualified.” Understand, I tell you, ... how you flare up and react when Guru … trains you. Guru will never falsely accuse you or punish you. He will train you. He will see; he will test you.

[00:33:44] I tell you, Raghupati told me, he did not see even one small millisecond any hatred, … anger, frustration, guilt, any powerlessness in me. He said, “I am so happy. I am extremely happy!” Even though the body was so strongly affected by the punch, … the system was so strong, the consciousness was so strong, it did not allow anger, frustration, guilt, powerlessness towards my Guru. Even though I vomited on the fellow who did the false accusation, I ran to get a cloth and cleaned him up. Finally he accepted he falsely accused. Raghupati Yog … Yogi also said he did not believe, he just wanted to test me - how I'll react? If I flare up, how I respond? When I flared up, I only hugged him, surrendered to him. When I flare up, I become more integrated to him, more surrendered to him. Understand, whenever Guru test you, life test you - flare up and become more integrated. Flare up and surrender more deeply. That is the best way. When you flare up, flare up and be more integrated. Flare up and more strongly surrender.

[00:36:04] I tell you, ... after that he told me, “Now you start chanting Guru Gita. You are going to have Guru’s entry, Jnana Guru’s entry in your life.” I said, “What do you mean? Then who are you? Who is Kuppammal? I have so many people around me.” At that time I had Kuppammal, Annamalai Swamigal, Raghupati Yogi, Visiri Swami, Ramsuratkumar; all of them are around me. And, Mouna Swami. All of them around me. I said, “So many of you are here! Who else is going to come?” He said, “No, no, no, big guy. Periyaal varaporaar raa (பெரியாள் வரபோரார் றா).” In Tamil he said, “Periyaal varaporaar raa.” Of course, I tell you, … chant Guru Gita from today. You also prepare yourself. Periyaal varaporaar raa. You also prepare yourself for big guy’s entry in your life. Understand, … how we react when we are tested is too important. How we respond when we flare up is too important. How we behave when we flare up is too important.

[00:38:15] Decide that today's powerful cognition: whenever you flare up, be more integrated, more authentic, more responsible, more enriching. When you flare up, be more integrated to Guru, be more authentic to Guru, be more responsible towards Guru, be more enriching Guru’s life and words. Sit with this powerful cognition. Declaration within yourself, “Whenever I flare up, I’ll become more integrated, authentic, responsible, enriching to my Guru.”

[00:39:16] And also from today, … I request all of you chanting Guru Gita. I want all the aadheenams, especially Raja Vidya Gurukuls, start Guru Gita Homa, just like Chandi Homa. Guru Gita Homa should be done in all the aadheenams. I tell you, even if you feel bored or tired, don't miss rituals! Rituals will make you extreme powerful bio memory. Understand. Even if you feel tired or bored, do not miss rituals; rituals will make such powerful bio memory, muscle memory for you. Especially in our temples, all the deities are living deities! They are all birthed by Paramashiva! From Paramashiva they manifest! And, … touching the deities in our temples, aadheenams, ashrams is literally relating, having physically relating with Gods and Goddesses. Tirelessly who sits and does rituals ... builds the best muscle memory and bio memory.

[00:41:09] I tell you, … I am planning all my kids future as kings, queens, presidents, prime ministers of different kingdoms and samsthanas. That is why I insist on my kids to sit and do rituals tirelessly. See, 8 hours at a time, that kind of ritual should be done by every Raja Vidya Gurukul, yuvaraja and yuvarani every day. When you do that kind of rituals, you master laziness and boredom. Tiredness and boredom disappears from your life. If you do 8 hours long rituals like a Chandi Homa, Sri Vidya Homa, Guru Gita Homa, Rudra Homa tirelessly, you get that capacity to sit and tirelessly think, visualize, plan, strategize. That is basic qualification for any king, queen, prime minister, president. The basic qualification is sitting for hours and tirelessly having matured conversation within yourself, … tirelessly strategizing and thinking. That kind of bio memory is created in somebody, only if you do long ritual rituals. 8 hours rituals, I used to … 8 hours rituals used to be my lifestyle.

[00:43:06] If you see ... when we started the sangha the homas, pujas I used to do. 8-9 hours at a stretch I’ll do and comfortably we will, I’ll do the full Chandi Homa, Sri Vidya Homa. We have video records. Fortunately the Koundapadi in 2001, January - the Chandi Homa, Sri Vidya Homa I did is fully video recorded. We have video records. Tirelessly without feeling bored or tired, … if your brain has to sit, strategize, think, visualize, have matured conversation with yourselves. Kid should be trained to do long rituals. All Raja Vidya Gurukul: Madurai, Shyamala Peetha Sarvajnapeetham, Ichapuram - Surya Vamsa Surangi Samarajyam, Gujarat Yogini Sarvajnapeetham, Kashi Sarvajnapeetham, Bidadi - Adi Kailasa Sarvajnapeetham - all these gurukuls, the yuvarajas and yuvaranis should learn … the lifestyle of 8 hours ritual, long rituals. Tirelessly sitting and doing. I think the best way to get train is do Ganapati Homa and Guru Gita Homa. Ganapati Homa, Rudra Homa, Guru Gita Homa.

[00:45:15] Like we can practice different, different homas: Chandi Homa, Sri Vidya Homa, Guru Gita Homa and Ganapati Homa, Rudra Homa, even Bhagavad Gita Homa. Bhagavad Gita is done as a homa. Practice all these ritual. There are two styles: Vedic style, Agamic style. We follow Agamic style, because we are Shaivites, Adi Shaivites, so we follow Agamic style. Understand, ... long rituals are one of the best way to prepare your body and mind to sit and tirelessly strategize, have a matured conversation within you. Especially my yuvarajas and yuvaranis, whose future is going to be prime ministers, presidents, … kings, queens: all of you have to do this long ritual. It should become your lifestyle. Tirelessly doing wrong, long rituals. Long ritual is the best way of training your brain to be awake without getting tired, bored and having powerful conscious visualizations, especially when you sit with that idea - my whole biology thinks.

[00:47:08] So sit straight now. The powerful cognition now for all of you is declare within you, “When I flare up, I’ll be more integrated, authentic, responsible, enriching to my Guru.”

[00:47:29] I bless you all. Let’s all radiate with Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility, Enriching, Causing, Living Shuddhadvaita Saivam, Paramashivoham, The Eternal Bliss, Nithyananda. Thank you. Be blissful. [00:47:46]
