In this talk entitled The master is key to Seeking, The Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism (SPH) beautifully shared that Whatever makes us powerless is the question we are not able to face, however if we decide to face those questions, this is Seeking. He explained further that by not deciding to face those questions, one pushes himself into delusion again and again and added that sometimes we think because we are familiar with the problem, we know the solution - this is a delusion. The SPH explained beautifully that our seeking is powerful enough to reach whatever we are seeking, independent of any external help, without any external support or help. “Our seeking is powerful enough to make us experience the space we are seeking.” ## Video and Audio - The Master Key To Seeking | | | | --- | --- | | **Video** | **Audio** | | [YouTube video](https://www.youtube.com/embed/khy8HDTyavE?) | [SoundCloud audio](https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https://soundcloud.com/nithyananda-radio/jan2016-14-isa-upanishad-the-master-keys-to-seeking?in=nithyananda-radio/sets/2016-daily-satsang&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&visual=true) | ## Transcript (00:16) nithyānandeśvara samārambhām nithyānandeśvari madhyamām \| asmat āchārya paryantām vande guru paramparām \|\| I welcome all of you with My love and respects. I welcome all the devotees, disciples, Samajis, Satsanghis, SriMahants, Mahants, Thanedar, Kothari, and everyone sitting with us through Nithyananda TV and two-way video conferencing having Nayana Deeksha. Cities sitting with us in two-way video conferencing having Nayana Deeksha…. (01:31) I will continue to expand on the subject I left day before yesterday Satsang—SEEKING – I have not yet completed defining it, and expanding on it. Then I will enter into the next verse, 16th verse. Before that I am reading a question, which is in all your minds, and I wanted to answer – it is not too heavy, so don’t worry. \[laughs, referring to His matted hair worn on top of head like a crown\]. It’s not too heavy, and it’s very light, and I am very happy about it. I am enjoying it, and I’m really enjoying it. So because I am enjoying it, you guys also enjoy, come on! Tirumular varkavedda sivayoga vedda – means the form of Mahadeva. (02:47) I will expand on this great truth – Seeking. Understand, one part of you feels so strongly that you are going to exist forever and you don’t need to worry about the questions of after-life. It is like whenever you see people dying or you hear the news of somebody’s death—you always think for a few seconds, “What will happen to me?” And then somehow you enter into the conviction you are going to exist forever, or the problem is not going to come immediately at least, or you just decide that you don’t need to attend to this question at least NOW. Something, something happens you lose attention and focus from that spark. Please understand, come back to the basic questions — whatever makes you powerless is basic question you are not able to face it. Listen, whatever makes you powerless is a basic question you are not able to face it—that is the seed of Seeking. Whatever makes you powerless – is the question you are not able to face it; and deciding to face those questions is Seeking. (04:54) Listen carefully, I will repeat once more. Whatever makes you powerless - “what will happen after death, will I be all alone during my death, or in deathbed all the pain I may have to go through, will I be able to handle? Or if suddenly some poverty happens in my life, if I lose some things, what will happen?” So the questions which makes you powerless, if you decide not to face them, you push yourself into delusion again and again; if you decide to face them, that is Seeking. Understand, I am defining Seeking; come back to the basic questions of life. “What is life? What is death? Before you assumed this body, how your face looked? After this body stops functioning, how you are going to exist and face?” These all may be the basic questions of life, just because you pushed them under the carpet, the questions cannot disappear. Just because these questions have been asked many times by others or by yourself to you, don’t think you know the answer. (06:37) Sometimes because we are familiar with some problems we assume we found the solution for that problem. No. Please listen, being familiar with that problem does not mean you found the solution for that problem. Being familiar with the problem for quite a long time, because of the familiarity, assuming you know the solution for that problem is delusion. Just because you know a question, for last 25 years, you assume you know the solution, is delusion. Or you push it under the carpet and you think, “ah, aree this question, Ramana Maharishi spoke about it, I read when I was the age of 7-year-old boy, and this question only Paramahamsa Nithyananda is talking, what is there? I think I know what he is talking.” (07:46) Understand, familiarity with the problem should not give you the delusion you know the solution. All alone when you are in your bed and not sleeping, when you are alone, ask these questions towards you. If death comes, tonight, am I prepared to face it? What is Life? What is it, that gives me such a strong confidence that I am not going to die, I am going to eternally exist. I am not saying that your belief that you are going to eternally exist is a lie, no. There is a component in you, which is eternally going to exist. Unfortunately, you do not associate yourself with that component permanently. That’s all I am trying to remind you. Listen, I am not asking you to get depressed by thinking about death, I am not interested in taking away your confidence, which you carry that you are going to exist forever. I am not interested in taking away that confidence and that confidence is not false; that’s a good news. Yes, you are going to exist eternally, but please decide to associate yourself with THAT permanently. (09:39) It is like a, just by having the fish smell, you imagine you ate fish. Just by having the confidence, which is the smell of the Eternal Consciousness, you start deluding yourself – you experienced the Eternal Consciousness. That is what I am telling you, smell is not eating. Please listen, sometime if you are planning to eat just for the sake of taste, not because of hunger, even if you enjoy the smell of the hotel, you will feel like you ate already, you won’t feel like eating. If you are not really feeling hungry, but you decide to eat just for the sake of taste, or you saw the photographs of that food in the hoarding, in the poster, if you just decide to eat for the sake of taste, or for the sake of the way the food looks – even if you enjoy the smell sitting in the hotel for few minutes, you won’t feel like eating, you will be full. Same way, if you are superficially looking into you, what is there? all that? Even the smell of your consciousness, which is confidence….Let me explain, it is a very subtle point I am trying to explain. Listen, there is part of you which never dies, which is eternally alive, your consciousness, your bio-energy. There is part of you, which dies. Unfortunately, you associate yourself with which dies, but you draw confidence from which does not die. It is like just by smelling the food, you feel you ate and you are fulfilled. Smell can never fill your stomach. Listen, only if you eat, it can fill your stomach. Same way, just the confidence of bio-energy that you are never going to die, will not make you enlightened. Solve the issue once for all. The confidence of bio-energy ‘you are never going to die’ will be there till your nail gets broken or you face a small fracture. A hairline crack is enough to take away your confidence that you are eternal – you are not going to die. (12:53) Please listen, you are eternal, you are not going to die, that confidence is only the smell of your bio-energy, not experience of you bio-energy. Making it as an experience, deciding to make it as an experience is what I call Seeking. Listen, please listen, once I went and told my Guru, Mata Vibhudananda Puri Devi, I went and told her, “you are telling me that I am beyond the life and death”. She read out Ribhu Gita to me that day, and explained some of the great truths in Ribhu Gita, and I’ll strongly recommend all My disciples read Ribhu Gita if you have time…. no make time. If I say if you have time, you will never have time; make time, read Ribhu Gita. It is one of the greatest scripture in Hindu tradition. And she explained to me a concept about immortality, and I went and slept over it. Next day I went and told her, “You explained, but I am afraid whether I will enter into that space at all, how to enter into that space?” She said, “Please listen, this word is very important for all of you, “just entertain this desire to experience that space so strongly, the fear whether you will experience or not will BREAK, that is the moment you will experience that Space.” (14:58) Listen, she told Me beautifully, 15:05 to 15:18 “tedu tale tedu bavanai tedu vadarka aaki kedel seyum shakti vaindada – in Tamil she said. I will translate in English – “Seeking is powerful enough to merge the seeker into THAT which is sought after.” She said beautifully, “What you are seeking, entertain that. That is intelligent enough to break the fear whether you will achieve it or not, and make you enter into that space which you are seeking.” It was such powerful click for Me I tell you. This is the key I used to experience everything described in Agama and Tantra and Vedanta and Yoga. This is the Master key, this is the Master key. There are few Master keys that I received from My Masters, which I used in millions of places and realized the Truths. (16:41) One more Master key I received with Ramsurat Kumar, a great Yogi. I was sitting next to him, it was a midnight, two-o-clock in the cremation ground, Amaavasya \[moonless night\] dark night, some sound, dog barking or something in the cremation ground in one corner. I asked him slowly, “Swamiji everyone always talks about this ghost, bhuta, preta, are you not afraid of it? How you are handling? What mantra are you doing to protect you from that bhuta, preta?” He laughed and just slapped Me. He has the habit of, whenever he gets excited he will slap people. This Ramsumat Kumar, whenever he gets excited he will slap people. He slapped Me and said, “Aye fool, You, everything outside Me, You and everything outside Me, all these are My projection. Me, everything outside You, is all Your projection, even we are the projection of each other, then how can bhuta come without Me projecting it outside!” (18:09) Listen, he said beautifully, “(18:16 to 18:28 Tamil)”. Listen carefully I will explain, I will explain. What he meant: Even things which you are seeing in front of you is your projection, then unless you project how can a ghost or bhuta or preta can come? He said beautifully, “Even you are My projection, unless I project, how can bhuta, preta, pisacha can come separately.” It’s all our projection. I don’t know how, whether it clicked with you guys or not, but the moment he said, the way he said, it just clicked with Me, like a Master click, Master key. So after that, anytime, anybody speaks about bhuta, I only applied this; and maybe in 6 months the very idea of bhuta disappeared from Me. All these bhuta, preta, pisacha, all that idea, the very idea disappeared from Me; because it clicked so strongly with Me – “Arey, even the people whom you are seeing, even the things you are experiencing in this world is your projection, even this is your projection. If you see a bhuta, preta, pisacha or ghost or anything that is also your own projection, the moment you remember it is your own projection, they will disappear.” It was such a strong click in Me, for that moment it clicked with Me so much. (20:30) If something clicks with you the moment your Master utters, your heart is waiting for that truth, understand. Your being was waiting for that truth. When Vibhudananda Puri explained about the Seeking, “Aye, don’t worry just keep the seeking – (20:57 to 21:07Tamil) – means that Seeking is powerful enough to make the seeker to merge with what is sought after. So you don’t need to have something else, or you don’t need to worry or entertain any other fear, will I achieve what I am seeking?” It was such a powerful click for Me. I think, right word was told to Me by the right person when I was in the right temperature. It straight entered into My system. After that in any of the spiritual practices, there was nothing called impossibility or obstruction or obstacle. She will tell, “Okay, chant this mantra and realize Bhuvaneshwari.” I will not even have a second thought, “if I just chant this mantra, will I have darshan of Bhuvaneshwari? how can it be?” I will not even have that thought, even if that thought comes, I will tell, “hey, Mataji told Me, “My power of seeking, the seeking is powerful enough to make Me experience the space I am seeking.” So then I am seeking to experience Devi Bhuvaneshwari and here is the mantra, this is enough, powerful enough to make Me experience the space of Bhuvaneshwari. I don’t need to worry whether I am going to have Her darshan or not, experience Her or not, come on let me sit.” Over! Because of this confidence and energy, and intensity, simply I was mastering different, different, different methodologies, techniques, yoga, pranayama, kriya, everything she was teaching, I was just mastering, because that click became My bio-memory. (23:31) Understand, the other day I was telling in the satsang that our Gurukul kids are going to radiate more and more powers. You may be thinking – “Ohhh, to give one or two powers itself it took 6 months for Swamiji. How are they going to radiate 400 powers? 400 into 6, 200 years, 400 into 6 months, 200 years.” No, calculation does not go in that way. First 1 or 2 powers only I need to break their SDHD - self-doubt, self-hatred, self-denial, then after that it is only circuit. After that it is only switching on the different circuits. See to give this click to Me – that ‘Your seeking is capable of making You to experience what You are seeking’ – to give that click to Me, she has to work at least 3-4 years with Me. But once that clicked happened, she need not work to make Me realize every component of sadhana, every component of spiritual practice, every technique, every tantra, every Agama, every spiritual process, she does not, she did not need 3 years and no need for spending 3-4 years for her. (25:03) Please understand, the first breakthrough reduced the amount of time she need to spend with Me to open up certain power or certain technique or certain methodology. After 3, 4 powers she need not even spend time and she will just initiate Me and ask Me to practice and come back, and report to her. That is why I am saying – for Me to open up the 1st power, 2nd power in the Gurukul kids took 6 months, no doubt. But the next, next things are not going to take that much because I already broke some of the major impediments, some of the major things have already clicked with them. (26:08) Listen, today I wanted the definition of Seeking to click with you guys, so that I can go on explaining the 400 different powers Mahadeva expresses in Agamas. If I have to explain and make it all as an experience to you guys, I have to give you the breakthrough and help you to click with Seeking. So listen, your Seeking is complete and powerful enough to put you in the space you are Seeking, without any assistance, external help or other support. Please listen, your Seeking is independently intelligent enough without the assistance of technique, support, any other external measures to give you, to make you experience what you are Seeking. (27:24) When this truth clicked with Me thousands of dvanda vighna got dropped. Listen to this word ‘dvanda vighna’: it means anything you start you will not do second day, third day. You will learn about Hatha Yoga with all the excitement and inspiration, jump into it first day, second day Jata Yoga. No, first day Hatha Yoga, second day Jata Yoga. That dvanda vighna is because of the idea — “it may be impractical for me. I may not be capable, how do I know I am going to achieve it? This lady uttered some mantra and told me, ‘this is Bhuvaneshwari mantra’, who knows whether Bhuvaneshwari is sitting there and this is the right password, the moment I type she will pick up the call and talk to me?” This doubt, this concept of impossibility makes dvandva vighna, means the second day breakup. Dvanda vighna! Listen to that word. Most of you have this dvanda vighna problem, you may not know the word, but you know this concept very well. Look in, you will see that he is your closest friend. Dvanda vigna, means anything you start you know second day, “I think this is not going to work for me; maybe for him, but not for ….”. That is called dvanda vighna. (29:42) Please understand, by giving this one click to Me, that — your seeking is capable enough to give you the experience of what you are seeking without any external help or support’; by giving this click, she removed that dvanda vigna, that impossibility from Me once for all. If she gives \
