Title: Get Rid of Unnecessary Images Part 1

In this video, the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism HDH #Nithyananda​ Paramashivam addresses the delegates of the Ananda Tapas convention. HDH talks about the difference between Vasanas and Samskaras. Vasanas are all the images our mind records, without us even without knowing it, lifetime after lifetime. They are possibilities, the base material for our Samskaras which are desires we try enjoying over and over. But, at the same time, not everything is conducive of our advancement and evolution of consciousness.

Cotton become thread, but thread can’t bind you. No, no, no, cotton can’t bind you. Thread can bind you. Understand, it’s a very subtle. Vasanas are intense samskaras but directly they do not have power to bind you. Just like cotton cannot bind you directly, only when it becomes thread, it can bind you. These vasanas only when they are associated with the memory, it can become samskara. Like a ...you see, same place can create hatred or love in you. Your emotional attachment is what is called samskara. The very base this place is no way connected to your samskara. It’s such a deep concept. I don’t know whether you are catching it!

(01:16)

See, if you take bunch of cotton, we can’t tie your hand. We can’t bind you but if we make thread out of it, we can tie you. We can bind you. Same way, but if you see actually cotton is intense thread. I can say that word na, I can use that word. It is intense thread but it can’t be used for purpose of binding you. Same way, vasana is the intense samskara but it can’t be used to bind you because to bind you, the different kind of a quality is necessary. Yes?

(01:55)

Devotee: To form a samskara, are there any prior to say it can form by itself or do we do have to have a vasana?

(02:03)

Swamiji: No, any samskara, you need to have vasana. Without that base material like vasana, you can’t create samskara. Samskara is the effect of vasana. Karana karya. Karana is vasana, karya is samskara.

(02:21)

Devotee: Swamiji, earlier You said that awareness of samskara binds you. How can awareness of samskara bind you?

(02:27)

Swamiji: Ha you see, whenever you are connected to samskaras, you will only try to enjoy more and more.

(02:33)

Devotee: So you are aware you are greedy about something, then...

(02:37)

Swamiji: O you see, when I use that awareness word, I use, mean in that way. You mean conscious. See, when you are conscious about greedy, greed will disappear. That’s different but when I say awareness, being aware. See, for example, by being aware about the samkara, that will become alive in you. If you are aware of smoking constantly, that samskara of smoking will become alive in you. That way. Maybe you can say, giving attention. I use the word awareness to giving attention. That way.

(03:13)

Devotee: Does everybody has the same vasanas?

(03:16)

Swamiji: Little loud

(03:19)

Devotee: Does everybody has the same vasanas?

(03:22)

Swamiji: No, no, no. Vasanas are different. Now let Me enter into vasana. Alright, better you put your questions in writing so that…

(03:31)

Devotee: Our emotional attachment to a child, that is also part of the vasana?

(03:35)

Swamiji: Everything

(03:36)

Devotee: Everything is vasana?

(03:37)

Swamiji: Possibility to get emotionally attached is vasana; emotional attachment to your child is samskara.

(03:45)

Devotee: So ultimately vasana is only potential...

(03:53)

Swamiji: Why don’t you put it in writing? That is best. And moreover, the questions which you have now, the next line I will be answering and we will be wasting unnecessarily lot of time.

(04:04)

Understand, the vasanas are carried by your being from janmas after janmas. How the vasanas are developing and being carried? See, anything which is seen, heard, smelled, tasted and experienced will become vasana even if you are not aware. That is why, by hypnotising you, we can bring the informations out of your being, your mind, which you yourself are not aware you have seen. For example, you are driving fast and somebody is being murdered. You did not see the person’s dress, colour, who is murdered or who is murderer. You have not observed whether his dimensions and all those things, but if you are hypnotised, your mind can give all the information. Every detail-whether that person had a small disturbance in his eyes or whether he had a mole on his nose or any detail, any detail whether he was wearing glasses or whatever dress he was wearing or any detail. You can get any detail out of that person if you hypnotise him and take the material out of him. The reason is, whether he has observed or not, the information is recorded. You understand, information is recorded!

(05:42)

Now, all we need to do is bring your awareness towards the vasana’s side. See, for example, when you are fish, whatever you saw, experienced, that gets recorded. Now you get a confidence and idea, ‘Oh! I have seen the creatures living in water and outside water- like tortoise. Why not let me develop the new body like that animal?’ You develop a new body-tortoise. When you live in that body, you see so many things. You see many things, hear, touch, experience. Everything becomes your vasana. Now you decide, ‘Arey! I have seen much better animals like a pig running around which are more matured body, useful body. Why not let me develop that kind of body?’ You get courage and develop the next level body. Then after staying there, ’Arey! I am seeing human beings. Their body is much more sophisticated. Why not develop that kind of body?’ Your courage and confidence develops next kind of body, next level body.

(06:56)

Same way, when you experience an Enlightened Being in your life, your being collects all these things as vasanas and you develop the courage to create an enlightened body. You create, ‘Arey! This fellow is living in a much better dimension. Why can’t I create a body like this, a mind like this, a system like this?’ You get courage, confidence. How you build up your vasanas and develop your system...one more thing, one more difficult thing you need to understand is that the vasanas which you develop during various births, they stay in you till you exhaust them. Understand, till you finish them off they stay in.

(07:52)

Sometime, in some animal sarira, you take up some vasana which is not exhausted by you, which you have not exhausted, which starts staying in you. The vasanas which stays in you which is not directly helping you to create the next body, understand! For example, you lived in a fish body, collected vasanas about the tortoise body and created the tortoise body, over! The body, tortoise body vasanas are done! But sometime you collect the vasanas about tortoise body and crocodile-both. You created only tortoise body and crocodile body vasanas are there which is not exhausted. Those vasanas only basically stay with you and create the constant dilemmas in you. The vasanas which creates constant dilemma and confusion is vasanas which are accumulated but not exhausted.

(09:03)

Now we are going to live those vasanas, means, just live like a crocodile. You may ask, ‘How will I know whether I lived the crocodile life or tortoise life or snake life or pig life? What life I lived and what life I did not live?’ A simple thing. Give your greed and fear extreme freedom. If you sit for ten minutes give, if you have all the power and the violence, what exactly you will do? Visualise. If you have all the power and no morality is given to you, and what will your greed do? Forget about all the morality which you learnt. What your greed will do? Just visualise and find out for ten minutes.

(10:00)

If you see, the violence, the extreme violence in you, what it wants to do and the extreme greed, what it wants to do and live the animal related to that. See, for example, whenever you become violent, you feel, ‘I should do like a lion’ or some idea or some visualisation may match some animal. So express your violence just like a lion. What animal you feel connected to your violence or to your greed or all those things. With which animal you can feel connected, with which animal you feel connected for this intense power? Maybe I can give this idea. This will give you much more clarity. In horoscopes, always they will connect some mriga with every individual. If you have little knowledge about horoscope, you will know. Your horoscope will be connected to one mriga, particular mriga means that mriga samskaras, that mriga vasanas will be more in you. That mriga vasanas will be more in you.

(11:23)

Express your violence or greed intensely like any animal with which you feel connected. If you become violent, which animal you visualise, express. Sometime there will be four-five animal. Don’t bother about that. One by one, express everything. One by one, live just like that animals everything. Few minutes you may feel you should be like a lion, few minutes you may feel you should be like a dog, few minutes you may feel you should be like a elephant, few minutes you may feel that you should be like a snake. Whatever animal idea comes up in you just live in that body. This will bring you to the peak awareness. Not only that, you will literally see those vasanas are being lived in your body so that you don’t have to take one more body to live those vasanas.

(12:21)

Understand, now you are letting those vasanas to use your body so that you don’t have to use, take one more body. And any questions put it in writing. No more stopping between the lecture. Put it in writing. Sometime the vasanas will start coming one by one which you never expected that it was there in you. When you open up, this will start happening. Which you never expected it is there in you. All you need to do is choose one animal. You will surely feel connected to one animal. Choose any one animal. Start living just like that animal. Visualise your body has become just that animal, moving or creating sound, everything just like that animal and express your violence or greed or sex or lust or anything just like that animal. You will suddenly see so many layers in you opening.

(13:33)

Understand, you may think that this looks too metaphysical or too much theory, but when you open up only you will understand. As on now, you are controlled human being because of your conditioning which is not even skin deep, which is not even skin deep. One simple situation is enough to uncondition you, to make you again as animal. Don’t you see how many times you became animal in your life everyday? Everyday how many times you became animal! Even if you are suppressing you are just like a pet dog. You are only suppressing. The frightened animal, nothing more than that. You see, whether you are civilised or not, the whole world runs only based on ‘might is right’ idea. It is purely animal kingdom. Never think the civilised world exists.

(14:37)

Civilization is only theory. There are more Enlightened people on the planet earth than civilised people. There are more Enlightened people on the planet earth than civilised people. Then understand how many people are civilised! Civilisation is only a theory. Simple moments or one word is enough. ‘Are you dog? Why are you shouting like a dog?’ That is enough to make you shout like a dog and you literally shout like a dog and prove that you are dog. Your civilization is only skin deep. The animal which is inside is sleeping. Not even sleeping, it is waiting.

(15:28)

So, catch any one animal with which you feel connected and start living like that animal intensely including creating sound, moving your body. All your eyes will be tied so you do not know who is shouting, where and you will be spread all over. For next twenty one minutes, why twenty one minutes you may ask. In twenty one minutes, the circle will open up. See, for twenty one minutes you can’t stay with one idea. That is the basic truth. Within twenty one minutes, every twenty one minutes, you will experience depression, fear, greed, jealousy, attention need, ego and discontentment-all the seven chakra emotions you will experience every twenty one minutes. If you want, try, sit just for twenty one minutes whatever comes to your mind, speak out and record it. Don’t judge. After that, analyse that twenty one minutes of recording. You will see that all seven appear in that twenty one minutes. Every twenty one minutes, there will be circle.

(16:40)

Now I wanted you to live animal life full one circle-twenty one minute intensely. You will see, not only the animal which you chose will open up, there is too many things opening up in you and if I feel you need one more circle, we may extend. That we will do later on. Now, as on now, at least learn how to open up towards your vasanas, how to connect with your vasanas. Don’t bother. Nobody is going to watch you except I will be here just to take care of you so that you don’t go and hit the wall and just for your safety, I will be here. Otherwise, there is nobody going to watch and I have seen enough of people. So I will be bored to see you. Don’t think I will be watching you. And I will not be seeing you. I will be only standing on the chair and just watching you nobody goes or disturbs your body parts. So just go wild. If you open up, all your vasanas will come up.

(17:52)

Devotee: You can do multiple animals, right?

(17:54)

Swamiji: Yes, yes. You can do multiple animals at a time also, no problem. You can do multiple animals at a time. You will see, suddenly you will feel connected to many animals and start working, start expressing, means all those vasanas are little vasanas are there. Everything will start coming out. One more thing, after the meditation, you will feel every muscle feels so relaxed because in every muscle you carry this vasana. That is why so much of tension. After this one simple technique you will feel so good to live inside your body. I tell you, it really feels wonderful to live inside the body if you are Enlightened. I don’t know how much you miss by not becoming Enlightened!

(18:48)

Anyhow, alright, let Me not talk too much about it… You won’t feel the irritation at all! And it feels so smooth to live inside the body like comfortable, cosy, sweet, what to say that, living space. You will feel so beautiful. If your living room is not furnished too much or not too much of garbage is there. Now your living room is furnished too much and too much garbage. That is why you are staying outside. That is why you are staying outside. It’s filled with garbage and furnitures. Let’s throw all the garbage out and then automatically furnitures also you will throw it out.

(19:41)

Devotee: I am not able to figure the animal that I feel connected!

(19:44)

Swamiji: Just catch some animal and start. Just catch dog, that’s all. Catch lion.

(19:51)

Devotee: Toilet break can I go?

(19:53)

Swamiji: Quick. And animals don’t go to toilet Ma😀😀

(20:02)
