Today, Mahashivaratri!“DAMA...DAMA...DAMA...DAMA...
Actually, you cannot worship
Mahadeva! Worshipping Mahadeva is
impossible! Please understand, he is
beyond all the concept of time, space, form, formless....everything! He is beyond!
He is not an outlaw. Some people
are trying to project him as an outlaw.
He is not an outlaw. He is beyond
law, “out” law. He is the source of the
laws, who can never be bound by any law.
He is beyond the laws, understandings, principles. You can never worship him! You can only join his team by realizing him
in you. Understand, you can only join
his team. Based on the various levels of
understanding, you can become a Shiva Gana, Shiva Bhoota. When Shiva Ganas, Shiva Bhootas celebrate the
existence of Mahadeva, outsiders think Shiva Ganas and Shiva Bhootas are
worshipping Mahadeva. Please understand,
you can never worship Mahadeva; you can only join his team and celebrate his
existence!
See, this concept of “prayer” is
the contribution of the Abrahamic religions.
The Vedic Tradition starts with giving the right context of you to
you. Please understand, getting into the
right context of you to you, getting into the right understanding of you to
you, getting the right introduction of you to you, having the right context
about you to you is what I define as “Shiva Bhakta”, Shiva’s follower.
Please listen! Having the right context about you! Only a devotee of Mahadeva or follower of
Mahadeva can declare “Shivoham” – “I am Shiva”!
There is no tradition where you declare “I am Narayana”! No!
“Narayanoham” mantra does not exist!
In the other religions, if you tell you are God, you will be
killed! At least in the Hindu religion
sampradayas, you will not be killed; you will be tolerated as some other Hindu
sampradaya. But, in other religions, you
will be killed if you say you are God.
But in Shaiva Tradition, in Shaivism, your initiation starts with the
great truth: “Shivoham”!
Mahadeva, only Mahadeva can
celebrate making more and more Mahadevas!
Only he celebrates by making more and more Mahadevas! He does not introduce you to you as a sinner
or a slave or a follower. In Shaiva
Tradition you are introduced yourself to yourself as Mahadeva, Shiva. The best introduction you can get about you
to you is from Shaiva Tradition.
I tell you, worship can be
tolerated if it inspires you to experience the non-dualistic state, the
Advaitic state. Worship can be tolerated
if it inspires you to evolve to the level of Shivoham. If any worship does not inspire you towards
that experience, not only it should not be tolerated, it should also not be
encouraged, it should not be practiced!
Please understand, only Vedic
Tradition has the courage to declare, even the concept of God is a
stepping-stone for enlightenment, even the concept of God is a
stepping-stone
for enlightenment! The concept of Shiva
is just to experience the oneness, the non-dualistic state. I don’t
want to translate Advaita as
“oneness”. No! “Non-dualistic state”! That is the word I will use!
Non-dualistic state! Even the concept of God is used as a
stepping-stone to experience non-dualistic state. Shiva is also a
stepping-stone for
Shivoham. And he is happy about it,
understand!
Today is the day every one of us
should decide to join Mahadeva’s team.
Don’t just worship him. Worship him just to get inspired to join his
team. Your worship should inspire you to
join his team; then your worship is worthy.
If your worship is putting you in a powerless space, if you are
building, developing a wrong context about you by worshipping Mahadeva, I don’t
think your worship is worship, I don’t think Mahadeva is going to accept
it. So, please understand, even your
worship is worthy when you put yourself into the right context, when you give a
right introduction about you to you.
Bring the right introduction about you to you. Mahadeva, who resides in the space of eternal
completion, Nithya Poornathwa, who resides in complete completion, let us
celebrate his presence today!
That is why Mahadeva’s worship
has no methodology. He is the only god
there is no methodology to worship. Just
pick a stone from the street, pour a little water which is running from the
street, and put a few grass or any leaf and say “Namah Shivaya”. Over!
He is worshipped! Nothing else is
required! The easiest way of worship on
Planet Earth is only worship of Mahadeva, because he does not expect to be
worshipped; He only wants you to celebrate him; He just wants you to join his
team. Understand, joining his team is
the real celebration!
And, I also take this moment to
bless all the birthday babies, the sannyasis who took sannyas last year same
day, who joined Mahadeva’s team, Sannyasis, Brahmacharis, Krama Brahmacharis,
gurukul kids who joined Mahadeva’s team exactly on this same day last
year! And I also welcome the big group
who will join today Mahadeva’s team.
Today a big group is joining Mahadeva’s team. We will be having Krama
Brahmacharya initiation. Today we are
not having Viraja Mantra as sannyas initiation.
We are having Karama Brahmacharya initiation.
The approach you need to have
with Mahadeva is, celebrate his existence and celebrate his presence, and, if
you can, join his team. That is
all! So, understand, joining his team
and celebrating his presence is what we are supposed to do today on this
Mahashivaratri Day.
Mahadeva is embodiment of
Liberated Thinking. He does not want
even himself to be an obstacle for you to achieve that ultimate
liberation. That is why he starts with
Shivoham!
Today, whole day, we
will be
having celebrations, festivals, worshipping just to celebrate his
presence,
become him and to join his team. See,
worship from the context of becoming him, experiencing him. Don’t
worship from
the context of prayer. Prayer can be
tolerated, as I said, if it inspires you to experience his presence.
Today, all our temples, ashrams, centres are
worshipping Mahadeva’s presence. Bidadi
is celebrating by offering 1008 naivedyams.
1008 naivedyams are offered to Mahadeva.
And, only with Mahadeva you can make Mahadeva’s linga also as some food
item and offer the same food item also as naivedyam! He is the food and
he is the eater! And they have made Shiva Linga also with the
same food items! And each temple, each
ashram is offering different naivedyams, offerings to Mahadeva, pujas to
Mahadeva.
I just wanted all of you to
remember today: Today do everything, whatever you do, do it from the context of
joining Mahadeva’s team. Celebrate his
presence, do Rudrabhishekam, do puja, everything from the context of joining
Mahadeva’s team. Today, whole day, we
have packed programs day and night! We
have Rudrabhishekam, Homa and Abhishekam to Nithyanandeshwara and Nithyananda
Linga in Vaidya Sarovar, Shiva Kundalini Dhyan meditation. Whole day, whole night, we have so many wonderful
programs. And we have Rathotsavam, and
Kalpataru Darshan. Do everything from
the context of celebrating his presence and joining his team. That is all!
So, understand, you can never
worship Mahadeva. First of all you can’t
grasp Mahadeva! Then how will you
worship him? You can only celebrate his
presence that he has happened in your life, he has at least introduced himself
in a small way as you understand in your life, he has graciously introduced
himself, his existence in your life. I
tell you, even to know the existence of Mahadeva, you need his grace!
We have satsangh today night
also, and a lot of pujas. So, I request
all of you, please be tuned in to Nithyananda TV today whole day and enjoy
Mahashivaratri!
I bless you all on this auspicious
day of Mahashivaratri! May all of you
experience the intense Shiva energy on this day! My blessings!
So, the essence of today’s
satsangh:
You can only celebrate his
presence and join his team. So,
celebrate his presence to join his team!
My blessings to all the centres
which are celebrating Shivaratri!
Washington DC is so lit up! All
the deities are glittering in the light, shining!
And please be tuned in to
Nithyananda TV today whole day. We will
have the Kalpataru process tonight, means Indian Standard Time night. Now, for a few minutes, we will see a
presentation about Sannyas. Then I will
move to the next segment of the morning satsangh.
VIDEO ON SANNYAS IS
PLAYED.....................
Get ready for the Sannyas
initiation. Today there won’t be bhasma
snan, because there will be only Krama Brahmacharya initiation. All those who are going to be initiated can
take bath in the Vaidyasarovar. And
other Swamis, Naishitika Brahmacharis, Krama Brahmacharis who have already been
initiated should be present in the Vaidya Sarovar to say “Thathaasthu”! Whoever is present in Bidadi should be
present in Vaidya Sarovar. All the other
Brahmacharis, Naishtika Brahmacharis, Krama Brahmacharis, you should be present
on video-conferencing to say “Thathaasthu”, because new people are joining into
our team, Mahadeva’s team. It is
actually a family and team. So, we can
call it as “Teamily”! Joining with
Mahadeva’s team and Mahadeva’s family!
So we will call it as “Teamily”!
Get ready to celebrate!
And whoever wants to
fast, please
you can fast. But take some liquid like
milk or some juice. Take some
liquid. Don’t do complete fast without
even taking some liquid. If you want to
eat, you can eat. Food is available in
the Anna Mandir. But if you are doing fast,
take some liquid; because, if you don’t take liquids, late night during
the
meditation you will feel tired and you will miss the meditation. Don’t
miss this meditation! So, just have a little juice so that your
mind is free from stomach to chant Mahadeva’s name and celebrate his
presence,
join his team.
And my blessings to Baroda
Centre! Baroda Dhyanapeetam is doing
Tryambaka, means the Mrityunjaya from today morning till evening non-stop. My blessings!
And Oklahoma-Somanatham, my
blessings for all the devotees who have gathered to do the Abhishekam and Puja
to Mahadeva! Blessings to all of you!
And my blessings to all the
devotees who have gathered in Kathmandu-Nepal!
It is a big celebration!
And Winston-Salem-North Carolina,
my blessings!
Guadeloupe-Rameshwaram, my
blessings for your great celebration and the naivedyams you have offered! Great!
And, Mahadeva’s puja is the most
easiest puja. Just pour a little
water! And you don’t even need to tell
“Shivaya Namaha”. “Shiva Shiva” is enough! And offer any leaf. He is pleased! Bhole Nath!
Bhole Baba! So, just celebrate his
presence and join his team.
Please continue to be connected throughout
the day today. My blessings to every one
of you!
And I bless you all! Let you all radiate with Integrity, Authenticity,
Responsibility and Enriching and Causing eternal bliss, Nithyananda! Thank you!
