Title:
Live Simple and Become Shiva - Nithyananda Morning Satsang 6 Jan 11
Description:
"By nature you are pleased with simple things, you are Bhole Baba (Shiva)! "I tell you, retain the beauty of Bhole Baba in your life, retain the quality of Ashudosha (easily pleased) in your life, you will be living with Shiva Consciousness," says Paramahamsa Nithyananda, Rare Avatar and Enlightened Master.
In this another remarkable Satsang/discourse, Paramahamsa Nithyananda dealt with answering questions from devotees and disciples across the world and in the process opened out the whole science of living in Ignorance and practicing Sadhana by 'being Shiva by just living in simplicity', learning from different states of past, present, and future.
When asked about the overlapping states in different chakras, with each chakra holding up to 21 engrams only, Paramahamsa Nithyananda answered with the truth that most of us are stuck in Vissuddhi chakra (at throat center -- signifying jealousy and comparison), where the present is pregnant or poisoned with past or future. We are not enjoying the 'Pure Present'.
He also added that "Yes, you are just 21 engrams away from the present. I am saying each chakra holds only 21 max. Some of your centers may hold only 5 or 6. You are max 21 engrams away from Enlightenment. But, we going into a seemingly endless loop recreating engrams in the same state -- that is what is the sad part."
Then, Paramahamsa Nithyananda shared a very important understanding, a click, the sad part and the big problem to experience the 'pure present' is in 'not deciding': "It is not even living in the present, deciding to live in the present. We are not deciding. Somehow we have a very deep vested interest to be casual. We don't trust the restful awareness can give rest. We always tend to believe rest means forgetting things, being irresponsible. Please understand, awareness, trying to live in the present, looks like a load on you because of your belief system".
Then, Paramahamsa Nithyananda warned about being in laziness and gave the meaning of Ignorance and Sadhana: "Ignorance means believing, floating in the past & future is relaxation. Being in the present is a stressful effort. This is ignorance. All your bio memories believe being pushed by past and future is your nature and in that, you are more relaxed than being in the present! That is why whenever you are in the present, it looks like action, which is supposed to be your very nature! You are supposed to be in present and going to past & future should be action. Do not associate relaxation with the mood that happened with some past incident. Associate relaxation with the kundalini awakening in your body. A shift happens in everybody when this happens. Associate your body and bio memory that this is relaxation and restful awareness. I can say this is 'sadhana', that is ignorance".
"Understand, if you think your joy comes to you by the difficult achievements you are shava -- you are going towards death because your whole life will be struggling. If you understand your joys are too simple, you can be fulfilled in a simple way. When you look at your past and understand how to be in joy without projecting it in future, you will realize you are 'Aasudosha -- Shiva -- Bhole Baba -- means easily pleased -- just a little Ganga water, a handful of rice, a bilva patra -- easily pleased. I tell you, if you don't project your future into the past, you will become Bhole Baba easily pleased. Simply joyful! I tell you that is one of the greatest quality". After this amazing understanding of Shava vs. being Shiva, Ashodosha, easily pleased, Paramahamsa Nithyananda shared His spiritual fantasy of being BHOLE BABA - what He would be doing, how will He be, if He didn't have the mission. A brilliant and beautiful insight into His own simplicity.
Paramahamsa Nithyananda then ended this phenomenal Satsang with His core message to get back to be Bhole Baba, "Understand, the Ashudosha -- not projecting your future into the past and seeing your past. If you just look at your past as it is you will see so many times with such simple things you are pleased. By nature you are pleased with simple things, you are Bhole Baba! You will just dig out the Ashudosha and Bhole Baba identity in you. But your logic comes up and says everyone else is pleased by other big things and they are exploiting them. Then now you have exploited your own self! Sadhu means living like a Bhole Baba."

Prayer. Welcome. Before entering into the today’s satsang, today’s subject t, I will answer some questions from devotees and disciples around the world Q: most of us are stuck in vishuddhi. Also each chakra holds only 21 engrams, threats. Does this mean we are only 21 engrams away from the enlightenment state….could you please explain the overlapping of the states further. If a threat goes from one chakra to another, do we fulfill it in the lower chakra or the higher chakra? A: I will answer every step. If you understand the truth, many of these questions will drop. 1st thing most of us are stuck in vishuddhi where the present holds – the present is pregnant or poisoned with past and future. You are not enjoying the pure present. You are sitting here but you are not enjoying this complete whole thing in pure present. You have your own worries related to past and future. So every moment comes with a dent created with past and future. How much every you try, sometimes your very body tries to resist. It just succumbs to the past and future. So the present which you are enjoying is battered and shattered by the past and future. Yes, you are just 21 engram away from the present. I am saying each chakra holds only 21 max. some of your centres may hold only 5 or 6. You are max 21 engrams away from enlightenment. But we going into a seemingly endless loop recreating engrams in the same state – that is what is the sad part. Not deciding. It is not even living in the present, deciding to live in the present. Deciding that is where the problem is. We are not deciding. Somehow we have a very deep vested interest to be casual. We don’t trust the restful awareness can give rest. We always tend to believe rest means forgetting things, being irresponsible. The inability, irresponsibility or non attending is associated with rest. Unfortunately you know only one rest which is sleeping where you don’t care about things. Please understand, you do not know any other rest. I really feel sorry! It is so pathetic. Human beings do not know any other state for resting other than sleep. That is why always if you want to take rest, you want to throw away things. You strongly believe irresponsibility or non owning or disowning is only way for rest. NO. the moment you start believing disowning, non-attending is the only way for rest, naturally your being likes to rest. So it will always decide to let go means let the past & future do whatever it wants to do in the mind, let me rest. Please understand awareness, trying to live in the present looks like a load on you because of your belief system. You know the benefit of living in the present. How you are alive, aware, excited, intense, passionate, joyful, successful when you live in present. But you decide not to live because you have deep strong belief that present means stress. Awareness means load. Till you remind your bio memory strongly awareness means restfulness. Being in the present means deep relaxation. Make your bio memory understand this. I don’t know how much time & energy you are going to take to remind your system awareness means restful awareness, being in the present means utter deep relaxation. All the knots being shattered. That understanding, that clarity is a basic necessity for you to consciously decide to get enlightened to live in the present moment. The problem is not just your intellectual understanding, the problem related to laziness – this is the deepest and subtlest print out which you carry in your mind, blue print which you carry in your mind about the past, present and future. This is one of the most dangerous blue print which is living in the present is stress. Just being pushed and pulled by past & future is relaxation. I can define the meaning of ignorance. Ignorance means believing floating in the past & future is relaxation. Being in the present is stressful effort. This is ignorance. All your bio memories believe being pushed by past and future is your nature and in that you are more relaxed than being in present! That is why whenever you are in present, it looks like action which is supposed to be your very nature! You are supposed to be in present and going to past & future should be action. But see the whole shift in your understanding. As on now you feel being in the present is a big action – I have to be aware like a sniffing dog – I am in the present, oh no, in the past, no future…unfortunately your muscles are stored so much with the past & future, you are so habituated to feel the relaxation in the past & future, your present is so much battered & shattered by past & future, you strongly believe being in the present is a continuous action. This is what I call ignorance! Again & again & again reminding your muscle memory being in the present is relaxation and restfulness,. Being in the present is restful awareness. Entering into the past or future is an action – doing which is stressfulness. Do not associate relaxation. with the mood that happened with some past incident. Associate relaxation with the kundalini awakening in your body. A shift happens in every body when this happens. associate your body and bio memory that this is relaxation and restful awareness. I can say this is ‘sadhana’ that is ignorance. This is sadhana. This ignorance is responsible for not living in the present, not deciding to live in the present. Not breaking such a small thread. It is a small veil between you & enlightenment made out of 21 small threads. Do we also traverse up & down these threads and do the threads go to other chakras below 2 The engrams themselves do not jump up & down. But you yourself jump. You choose your hell. In one hell if it is hot, you don’t go to heaven, you just change the temperature and jump into another hell. After some time you jump to other hell. You change hells. You change engrams. Change of sufferings you feel as joy. Change of work, people feel as vacation. Same way change of suffering you feel as joy. So thread itself does not go up or down. Each chakra has its own thread. You go and live in each chakra and come back. Could you please explain overlapping of states Pure past, pure present, past overlapping into the future – understand how you project your past into the future – either altered or developed state of past only you want to project in future; future overlapping into the past – not remembering the past as it happened. remembering it as per strategy plan you have for the future. Rewriting the history. Man wants always his past to be projected in tune with the way in which he wanted to project his future. This is what I call forgetting your identity. Being caught in asatya. When you constantly look at your past having a future strategy planning in your mind, you don’t look at the pure past. You are being crazy craving with equal strength for a candy at age 7, car at age 14, for a life partner at age 20 – but unfortunately when you look at your life back with you vested interest of future strategy planning, you think for life partner you have craving will fulfill you more than the candy. During all the problems which happen, you think candy will not stand with you but spouse will stand. Spouse is a person who will stand with you in all problems of your life which may not happen when he or she is not in your life ☺ So you know candy may not stand. So you tend to believe the spouse was a more strong craving than the candy. But I tell you. see a child playing with a toy or enjoying a candy – try to snatch that away and see how it gasps and struggles for breath. While crying or missing it, how it suffers for breath. See the intensity of length of the breath. Same way see when somebody is struggling for spouse or love in life, the intensity is the same. But when you remember in future, you don’t remember the craving and craziness you have for candy as intensely as you had for the so called useful objects. You remember only the craving of these objects. You don’t remember your whole past. Projecting future into past and remembering your past does not give you clear understanding and identity does not give you right account for you to make right decision in future. This is another important ignorance. You are stuck. I tell you if you can just teach only this one science the science of looking at the past as it is. If you can look at how you remember the superficial cravings you have …. If I can teach this one science to kids I will have millions of enlightened beings. If I can teach this one science to youth – millions of sanyasis will be there. If I can teach this one science to adults – at least few million enlightened sanyasis will be there. It is just that this one science that is required to pull down Wall Street. The very base on which the Wall Street is standing will drown inside the ocean. In this 2012 movie they are showing the ocean just raising and swallowing the Wall Street and other places. Ocean will not physically raise. If I can teach this science, the consciousness ocean will raise and the ideas on which this Wall Street and other places are built will be washed away! When you understand all the cravings you had, the fulfillments you experienced without projecting the future into the past, you will know you are a aasu dosha – easily pleased. Understand if you think your joy comes to you by the difficult achievements you are shava – you are going towards death because your whole life will be struggling. If you understand your joys are too simple, you can be fulfilled in simple way. When you look at your past and understand how to be in joy without projecting it in future, you will realize you are aasu dosha – shiva – bhole baba – means easily pleased – just a little Ganga water, handful of rice, a bilva patra – easily pleased. I tell you if you don’t project your future into the past, you will become Bhole baba easily pleased. Simply joyful. I tell you that is one of the greatest quality. If somebody asks me a question, if you don’t have this mission what will you be doing, how you will be. Somewhere in the banks of Ganges, in a small hut with a big belly I will be just lying down and if some of the local boys give me food I will eat and I will teleport candy for those kids, playing with them, teaching them some simple truths – don’t tell lies, don’t smoke, don’t beat your sister and classmate. Like this I will be simply sleeping & living. That is my fantasy of Bhole baba. Nothing much is required. easily pleased – aasu dosha. That’s all! Life is nothing more serious. All this mission & everything is for complicated people. Because human beings have complicated themselves so much, now you need a complicated mission. Otherwise nothing else is required. and I tell you by lying down in a corner hut living like a bhole baba I will make equal number of people enlightened as I would do being in this BIG mission. Because I will be working with small kids and small villagers who are not so complicated. So naturally I will be working with those simple people and the same process will be happening! Understand, the aasu dosha – not projecting your future into the past and seeing your past. If you just look at your past as it is you will see so many times with such simple things you are pleased. By nature you are pleased with simple things you are bhole baba! You will just dig 9out the aasu dosha dn bhole baba identity in you. cherishing and bringing the aasu dosha identity of you to life is living like a sadhu. You just being simply pleased. But your logic comes up and says everyone else is pleased by other big things and they are exploiting them. Then now you have exploited your own self! Understand, the moment you compare – because I am bhole baba, all the good things which came out of the churning of the ocean, all good things everyone took. They left snakes and bhasma for me, lakshmi has been taken by vishuna and kamadhenu by indra, the moment you think like this, you lose the shiva character in you. and run to be indra. Then you will think with parijaata, rambha, uravashi only with all this only you can enjoy being indra. So naturally the raakshasas attack you. then what you do – no let me be bhole baba. You get back to be a bhole baba. I tell you retain the beauty of bhole baba in your life, retain the quality of aasu dosha in your life you will be living with Shiva consciousness. Living with shiva concsciousness does not mean you have to live with big things. If you want to live in shiva consciousness live like a bhole baba – easily pleased – being asu dosha. You look into your past in a pure way without projecting the future into that past as it is. You will think oh god! You have been pleased always with simple things. Ordinary things are enough to please you. your cravings are not that complicated. Understanding that by nature you are aasu dosha bhole baba means liberated from the future being projected into past. If you stop projecting past in future you will be relieved from worry and fear. If you stop projecting the future from past you will be relieved from greed. Suddenly the many things which had grip on you, lose their power on you. you become bhole baba! Just decide to be aasu dosha, bhole baba. Do not believe your mind which compares with others and says no all are exploiting you. then you are done. Now you are being exploited by your own mind. Saadhu means living like a bhole baba. I will continue this in the next sessions. Blessings!
