[00:00:51] Secret doors to enlightenment. The doors towards enlightenment through the path of yogic physiology and through the path of yogic psychology. Path of yogic physiology means, I can give you hundreds of examples: Hatha Yoga, asana, pranayama, breathing techniques. All these are yogic physiology and yogic psychology means cognitive shift; means giving you the right understanding about the self, god - giving you clear understanding about man, universe, man-made self and man-made universe. Giving you the ultimate experience through these understandings is yogic psychology.
[00:01:44] In this verse Bhagavan is opening both the doors. He’s opening the door of yogic physiology and yogic psychology. See, if you understand the yogic physiology, how your physiology functions by its nature. How it functions if the social bio memories are added, if the society’s patterns are inserted. And how the same organs, sense organs behave, function, if the yogic psychology is added to your life. This whole is what I call understanding of yogic physiology.
[00:02:38] For example, let Me touch only one part of your physiology. The spleen, normally how a man spleen functions. If he is given the social conditioning of fight or flight response, how the spleen functions. If he is given the spiritual response, I can say yogic psychology, the way to face the reality, if he has given that understanding, how his spleen functions. Spleen does not need outer situation to make you feel suffocated or threatened. Same way, your root center does not need outside man or woman to make you experience the stimulation. They are independent of external expression because the strength of your reproductive organs and the spleen is stronger than any other organ of your body, especially the organ through which you perceive - the jnanendriyas, like eye, ear, tongue, smell, touch. Your reproductive organ and spleen, both are more powerful, stronger, have upper hand than your jnanendriyas.
[00:04:23] So your jnanendriyas input, means the physical input is not required for your spleen to make you feel threatened or your reproductive organ to make you feel excited or elated or triggered. You don't need external stimuli to experience some of the strongest experiences of your life. What a pathetic condition human beings are. Strongest experiences of his life is lust and fear. For both he doesn’t need to be dependent on the external world. It means external world is immaterial. Just your spleen and reproductive organ can exploit your whole life and manage your whole life as it wants.
[00:05:25 - 00:06:28] Inner Awakening Promotion
[00:06:29] IA Participant testimonial (IA Participant Sharing): “Hi, I am Alex Sharma. I live in West Lafayette Indiana and I study at Purdue University. I came back for summer vacation and my parents asked me if I wanted to come to Inner Awakening. But initially I said no and somehow by a fateful turn of events, I ended up coming here and I have not regretted it so far. It’s been a great experience. We have been doing a lot things, the yoga. Right now I’m late for yoga, so... We have been doing yoga. We’ve been doing a lot of meditation. The food’s great. The people here are wonderful and more than anything else it's um the development of the inner space that we’re all here for. And as of now I feel I’ve become a lot calmer than I was before, even though I have done a lot of meditation before. Currently, everyday I sleep for about four hours but I’m not cranky. I’m happy and I think that this would be a transformational program for anyone, regardless of age. Thank you.
[00:07:32] (Ananda Andaal sharing) Nithyanandam, I am Ananda Andaal and I’m a fourteen year old disciple of Swamiji. And um Inner Awakening has been a really, really amazing experience. Being with Swamiji for twenty one days in his breathing space is just… like you have to go .Its, even if you have the money or not, just write an intention and get blessings from Swamiji. You have to go. It’s so much fun umh. You get darshans from Him like every night. And you can ask Him whatever you want and it’s just amazing. The people here are like your family. You just like feel connected to everyone. You’re just like a big family and it's all happy and blissful. And you do yoga everyday in the morning and meditations and kriyas and you spend a whole day with Swamiji, which is like the best thing ever. Everyone like, would want. And um so the food is like, all vegetarian, which is surprisingly really good. Twenty one days with Swamiji is really amazing, being in His breathing space and everyone has to experience this. Even if they can come, come. If they can’t, they still have to come, because it's amazing. It's like one in a lifetime experience.
[00:08:42] I think it’s gonna really help me because I am, like, the in the relationship and all that, it’s just helping me realise all this stuff so when I get older I don’t have to go through all the struggles that people have to go through to realize this. So I’m really blessed that at fourteen I am getting all this. You could come at any age, as long as you are open to whatever Swamiji is going to be teaching you. So whatever age you are just you have to come.
[00:09:06] (HDH): External world is immaterial. Just your spleen and the reproductive organ can exploit your whole life and manage your whole life as it wants. Just the idea somebody can harass you is enough to make you take the decision of going in some other direction. In that direction again, the same idea, somebody else can harass you, can make you take the diversion in some other direction. So you are constantly taking diversion just with the idea that somebody can harass you without any input of real harassment from the external world. Without any data which can concretely create fear or fight-flight-freeze response in your system, just your spleen can manage to make you run around continuously - take diversion, take diversion, take diversion, take diversion.
[00:10:13] We have a small book published, the front page will say, “How to keep you busy whole day, see the last page.” When you turn the last page, last page will say, “How to keep your busy whole day, see the first page.” See the first page, then again, see the last page. Again, see the first page. Again,see the last page. Without reading a single page of the book you can be kept busy whole day. Without having a single incident which can really activate flight-fight-freeze response, you can be kept engaged in fear, in the take diversion mode, throughout your life just by your spleen. Just the understanding about spleen - I am not even talking in the yogic psychological way. I am talking in yogic physiological way - is enough to remove terrorism on the planet earth. Terrorism is nothing but, “Before he attacks, let me attack. There is enough of information and input. He is going to attack me and I am going to be killed. Anyway, before he does that let me do it.” That is all is the base of terrorism. That is all is basis of all violence.
[00:11:44] Just the understanding of spleen, that you can be constantly told to take diversion without any real danger in front of you. Same way, you can be constantly excited without real stimuli from the external. Your reproductive organ by its waxing and waning, the waning and waxing, is enough for you to experience the excitement and stimuli without any external object or person required. Just like a moon, your reproductive organ has a waxing and waning period.
[00:12:37] The experience of the system inside itself is capable enough to give you any excitement or stimulation independent of the input from the external world through your jnanendriyas, external senses. What a pathetic condition human beings are. You constantly believe it is external inputs through your senses makes you take the decision. But that is the worst lie ever taught to you.
[00:13:16] In those days in the Western schools they used to teach planet earth is flat. Please understand, never ever in Eastern schools it was taught planet earth was flat. It was always taught, “Planet earth is in a shape which our mind can not grasp,” or it was taught, “Planet earth is a globe.” That was the way the East understood the planet earth, how the basic lesson which was taught in many Western schools - the planet earth is flat - once that turns out to be a lie, practically every lesson you learnt based on that concept is a lie. Same way, the first lesson you learned in your life, either from the schools or universities or from your parents or the society, the inputs you received from the external objects or happening through your senses, is the information or the fact based on which you make decision, is a lie.
[00:14:33] Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, and explode in eternal bliss, Nithyananda. [00:14:45]

[00:51] Is the information or the fact based on which you make decisions is a lie. It is not true. You don’t decide fight or flight or freeze. You don’t decide that you are excited or enjoying or any of your joy or suffering or pain or fear is not decided by the input of the 5 senses. It is by the interference of the spleen, and your reproductive organ. Practically almost all the major decisions of your life, all the major bondages you create for yourself, all the major restricting patterns you assume for yourself, is assumed before any input information data reaches your decision making intelligence through the senses.
[02:06] Before even the experience of solid excitement or solid fear... see for example if a tiger is standing in front of you and about to attack you, and your senses - eyes are seeing the tiger, ears are hearing the tigers sound, and nose is smelling the tigers smell, and you are deciding to run or fight or freeze, it is alright. It’s perfectly alright. The decision is made from the input of your senses but unfortunately all major decisions of your life is never taken with this solid experience. Already your spleen has advised, sent the legal opinion to your intelligence - “Don’t go to that direction”. You call this as being cautious; being cautious is nothing but the social justification given to your own ignorance.
[03:33] It is too much for you to believe you are coward, cheap rate, 3rd rate spleen coward. This a exact new word I wanted to coin - spleen coward. Means not even afraid of the real input, constantly being afraid of the inputs by spleen which is literally impossible; 100% of your spleen inputs are impossible. Means if you are constantly taking diversion because there may be a tiger, you will never be attacked or suffering with tiger, you will be suddenly bitten by a snake; because the spleen does not have the capacity even to predict the real danger. It moves around in imaginary danger. The imaginary danger deludes you so strongly, the pattern is evolved in your system such a way, never ever your internal biomemories wait for the possible inputs from the senses. Like a layer by layer you are almost out of touch with reality, with the real feelings of the people and you create mess for yourself.
(05:15) Same way with the lust, just like fear with greed. Unfortunately you are made to believe from the young age the input through the senses is responsible for your decision which is not true. Input from your internal organs is responsible for your feelings and excitement and the experiences.
[00:05:49] - [00:08:29] Video about Inner Awakening starts playing
[08:31] Is responsible for your feelings and excitement and the experiences. The waxing and waning period of your internal organs is responsible for the many of the decisions you make. This is what I call - Essence of Yogic physiology. I’ve given the essence but I can go on expanding and Krishna is completely in tune with us; exactly today only He is introducing this sloka. Sloka towards the sense gratification and the yogic psychology and the essence of yogic psychology - all decisions you make through your intelligence does not get executed by your senses.
[09:28] The essence of yogic physiology is all decision you make are not from the input through the senses. The essence of yogic psychology is all your actions are not based on the decisions done by your intelligence. Your intelligence says move the right hand, put the left leg behind but your body goes on doing; left leg is put in the front and right left hand is moved. It is a continuous pattern; disconnection between your decision - the highest decision making authority in you which is Buddhi - that goes on deciding something and your senses goes on doing something else. This is the essence of Yogic Psychology.
[10:28] Why, what all are the reason how to remove those obstacles - is the whole subject of Yogic Psychology. In this verse Bhagavan very clearly says, “Understand the yogic physiology. Your decisions are not from the input of your physical senses. And understand, your actions are not actually based on your decisions. When this 2 understanding happens, disrespect to the chaos what you call as life happens to you. What you call as life is a huge chaos. When the disrespect to that chaos happens in you you start disrespecting your ego; disrespect getting built on your ego makes you move towards reality. That is the first step - Disrespect to your ego is the first step to experience the higher understanding about you.
[12:00] When I started disrespecting the ego which was getting built in Me by the society and family, I am able to easily experience My Higher Self Arunagiri Yogishwara and Meenakshi. See so many times I have seen, when I awaken your Kundalini, your higher self, your own opinion about your higher self becomes reality. It’s like a, you experience new you about which you are afraid. You are comfortable only with your old you, if I introduce new you to you that is where people are stuck. Many of you have fear of the higher personality of your self.
[12:55] If the higher personalities are introduced to you, in all of you that fear of highest frequency exists. That is the biggest obstacle. The disrespect for your present frequency, disrespect for your present ego is the basic necessary which will be the jumping board for you to jump into the higher frequency. All of you will be able to catch what I mean by going beyond ego. If you're too attached to your ego you can’t go beyond to it. You need to have disrespect to it. Only then you can go to the higher frequency, or higher experience. Because when a master gives any boon along with that medicine is also given. Boon and the space in which you are completely fulfilled both are sent as one package.
(14:07) Essence of what I wanted to explain through this verse and through the understanding of yogic physiology and yogic psychology is - All your decisions are not made from the inputs of the senses. All your actions are not executing the decisions made by your intelligence. So have tremendous disrespect to your ego which will make you, prepare you to take the jump into the higher self. (14:48)
