Title

Master, Mind & Mystic Phenomena

Description

In today's morning satsang, Paramahamsa Nithyananda (Swamiji) answers questions. The first question asks about explanation of a mysterious spiritual event, when a cobra was observed in a temple performing archana (worship offering) to the Shivalinga. The phenomenon was observed by hundreds and clear photos were taken, for us to view during the satsang. Paramahamsa reminds us that at times high spiritual beings such as sages or saints may take an animal body for a time. This was clearly such an occasion. The second question concerns how to attract the right people to us. Paramahamsa replies that there is no need to do special practices for this: our desire itself has enough strength to magnetize what we wish for and bring it to us. Another devotee asks how she can convince her child to follow Swamiji. Paramahamsa tells us that as parents, we have the responsibility to make sure the child knows about him and has opportunity to follow. The decision to follow springs from the free will of the child. We cannot force the choice. Paramahamsa's final comments are concerned with yoga and exercise. He enjoins us to practice yoga daily, at least one session in the morning. When the body gains yogic strength it automatically creates mental peace. We experience inner serenity and liberate ourselves from conflict.

slowly descended from there and went towards the bill worm leaf a big worm tree which is the Stahl erection holy tree of the temple it climbed the tree and picked a bill worm leaf and came back and entered the Sun needy it hissed at any devotee trying to get near it it then climbed on to the Shiva Lingam flared open its hood and dropped the bill worm leaf this miracle was witnessed by all devotees there who were too stunned in disbelief had seen this unusual spectacle then the Cobra went again and again to do the same Act repeating it two or three times as the news spread all over the village hundreds of villagers rushed to the temple to have a darshan of this miraculous event of a cobra doing puja for Shiva it may be noted that the bill worm leaf is considered holy for devout Hindus and special for Shiva puja according to the priest it is doing the pooja china during the solar eclipse time to wash off its sins on this particular grahan a day which is the solar eclipse day when the priest opened the sanctum sanctorum and saw the snake on top of the shiva linga idol he immediately called then upon the photographer who lives in through nagesh veeram a kilometer away from their village meanwhile a dozen or more people including a house caretaker had assembled to witness this miracle in front of their very eyes the Naga the Cobra went back to the bill gum tree and plucked the leaves and came back all the way to drop it on the Shiva Linga all these have been photographed by then upon it may be pertinent to know that many of the residents of this village agraharam are named nagarajan or na Gillingham for a few generations this news can be seen in tamil news paper thin amala first thing you need to understand who stays in what body you don't know I keep the doors open if he wants to leave we can leave I don't think he's because he knows the way he came it's open even otherwise keep the doors open you don't know please understand sometime the extraordinary souls the higher conscious souls gets into their animal bodies I can give you an example from my own life almost for three months to birds and bid thee every day morning they will bring the fresh leaf or a bamboo leaf and drop on my head not one day please understand the same two words I changed place I try to sit in seats Abba they will compute Sabha I'll try it would reduce ABBA welcome to rajya sabha they don't see the board where a satsang is going to be and I'll sit in a temple they'll come to Temple almost three months and after that I saw they disappeared see even in this incident the snake doing puja with will believes please understand it has not happened once that is the main thing please understand that bill wat tree in the sanctum sanctorum is at least 100 feet away I know the temple bilwa tree is the temple 3 holy tree in the temple say will one more thing will retrieve as Don's snake can never go through the tongs and plot of bill belief properly and bring it too much of coincidence I know this it is still tell nah nah nah some snake came there see the photography is proper he knows where to climb and where to drop he has not left it here and there see exactly Center proper Center even a trained snake cannot go from the garbha Mandir to the tree and get the bay leaf come back and drop it and go again I have spoken to many of these actors who acted with the snakes they tell me Swamiji to take two second shot with a snake how difficult it is we know they say to take two shots with a snake one snake dies one person was telling me the person acted in a movie with the snake to take two minutes shot one snake will die because it is very difficult to make the snake act so a snake and there are clear photographs the hole through which he comes inside the government there see him when the priests I was already in the government there then he called the photographer then this guy after doing the arson I he went out and picked the will relief and came back when he is again entering the government there only we are seeing the photograph this photo is when he is second time entering the government there this cannot be taken as coincidence and he is going into the government they're holding the leaf holding the will believe properly in the mouth one more thing snakes cannot hold something in the mouth and move freely they can either swallow and move our stand and swallow they cannot be holding something and moving because their mechanism is such only when their mouth is tight their body will be very tight for them to move make a move please understand a snake and never bite while it moves if it bites it cannot move at that moment of biting for example you have to make your fist strong tight to kick the structure itself is such it has to make its mouth tight only then it can pull his body so holding a leaf and moving can never happen as a natural way of moment for a snake and one more thing snake cannot move in a very smooth surface you can see the whole government is full of I'll snake cannot move in highly surface usually in villages if you want when they want to protect themselves from snake they pour oil on the floor I'll and turmeric powder camphor oil turmeric further cam for all these smells snakes cannot tolerate but a garba mundi which is full of all these three I will turmeric powder camphor snake and so freely move and goes and drops in right place I don't think this can be coincidence are trained snake even trained the snake please understand you need a snake charmer who should be continuously guiding after every two minute what this fellow has to do but here nobody is guiding that fellow walks up to straight to the right spot and drops the leaf goes back again and I don't see any morphing this photograph or any other cheating because the leaf is having holding in the mouth why he is coming into the garbha Mandir and the leaf he's dropping his same so he goes up with that leaf I tell you it cannot be coincidence or just a vague thing surely the snake must be a Rishi Oregon barova are SH doing puja to Mahadeva to Shiva in romana marshes life it has happened on cow Laxmi lived with him for years will give birth to cough exactly on his birthday exactly on his birthday as Allah animals don't have that ability to feel connect our sacred sentiments but as exemption they do have law itself says very clearly there is exemption there is a law because there is exemption I tell you animals can experience sacred sentiments I can put it in this way when they experience sacred sentiments they became more than human being when human beings don't experience sacred sentiments they are less than animals and animals do experience sacred sentiments it is possible Mexico's the next question is from Evelyn from South Carolina USA who's asking why is it that we attract people that we that were not interested in and not the ones we want is it that the ones we desire are not right for us must be change our thinking first thing you are asking why is it that we had tracked the people that were not interested in and not the ones we want no Evelyn these kind of people come in your life like a simple accident you are tracked only the people you desire please understand your desire itself is right thinking your desire itself is enough you don't need to change your thinking your desire will attract the right person in your life so you don't attract people whom you are not interested in if they come here you may be like accident just brush it aside your desire itself as a capacity to attract right people in your life nothing else need to be done separately next the next question is from nithya from birmingham UK was asking their Swamiji does each being take full accountability to choose his or her master consciously or do we create opportunities for the beam to become a disciple may I present you to my daughter as a master or let her grow up and seek her master for herself first thing nithya even if you present myself to your daughter she will decide whether i click with her or not your responsibility is presenting her freedom is choosing you have the responsibility to present she has a freedom to choose but don't interfere in our freedom if she does not choose or if she chooses sometimes she will choose and you may drop don't try to pull her out sometimes she may not choose you may choose don't try to force presenting is your responsibility as a disciple choosing is our freedom as I individual soul so go on presenting to ask many number of people as possible that is your freedom that is your responsibility people choosing or not it is their freedom Sunita I tell you go on presenting presenting presenting that is your responsibility next the next question is from Shalini Emma the bath who's asking how can I make peace with my own body image beauty or lack thereof first make the body yogic body use little bit of crea at least spend half an hour in the morning every day with Surya Namaskar our kriya I am surprised i have to mention this and congratulate the indian UPA government for putting 12 Surya Namaskar statues in Delhi
