I welcome all the devotees, disciples, samajis, satsanghis, Shrimahants, Mahants, Thanedars, Kotharis, sitting with us through Nithyananda TV, Lotus TV, Sadhna TV, two-way video-conferencing having Nayana Deeksha.

Cities sitting with us through two-way video-conferencing having Nayana Deeksha: Oklahoma-Somanatham, Toronto Aadheenam, Los Angeles Peetam, Hyderabad-Gupta Kashi, Scottsdale-Arizona, Pudukkottai Nithyanandeshwara Temple, San Jose-Madurai Temple, Charlotte-Srisailam, Seattle-Chidambaram Temple, Nithyananda Nagar-Rajapalayam Aadheenam, Hong Kong-Sirkazhi, Sugarland-Texas Aadheenam, Kuala Lumpur-Palani Aadheenam, Nepal, Kalahasthi Temple, Ohio-Ma Shivananda, Warrington-UK, Los Angeles-Hollywood, Grasse-France, Nithyananda University-Paris, St. Louis-Tirumala Aadheenam, Amersfoort-Netherlands, Singapore-Singapuram, Dharmapuri, Kathmandu-Nepal, Oman-Sivagangai, Sadhananda.....and some more are joining...........

I welcome all of you with my love and respects.

Today is 29^th Inner Awakening Graduation Day. And Skandha Sashti fifth day Uthsava. Subrahmanya is wearing the Roman Crown. This is a modern addition to the Vedic tradition. When the Roman kings came to Madurai Sundareshwara Temple, they have gifted their crown to Sundareshwara. From that time, all the Pandya temples deities will be wearing the Roman crown. So, today, Subrahmanya is gracing us with the Roman Crown.

And, very soon, may be as early as within the next few days, the Tamil channel – “Vendhar TV” – is going to do live relay of the morning satsangh; there will be live relay. One more channel will be getting added for the live relay.

So, with this, I want to expand on Mahadeva’s revelation – COMPLETION WITH THE PRINCIPLES OF ADVAITHA.

Please understand, whenever you strongly believe that a certain philosophy or principle may be right, but will not work for you, that is one of the biggest incompletions you can develop. ‘Swamiji is right. What he talks makes really sense. It is very logical. It is apt, but not for me.’ It is a fine word (fine print): “but not for me.” Over! Over! The whole thing is over! It is like the whole night you heard the Ramayana, and next day morning you are asking, ‘In what way is Seetha related to Rama? Uncle? Aunt? Brother-in-law? Sister-in-law?’ Stupid! Complete stupid way of existing! That is the way your mind will cheat you. Your mind cheats you through only one way – saying, ‘It is all great, but not for me. It is all great, but not for me.’ Oh, God! Then what is the use? Super-imposing your SDHD (Self-Doubt, Self-Hatred, Self-Denial) on the Dharma you are practicing, on the Advaitha you are supposed to practice, super-imposing the Self-Doubt, Self-Hatred, Self-Denial, super-imposing the Self-Doubt, Self-Hatred, Self-Denial on Advaitha principle, is one of the biggest losses, understand. That is one of the biggest losses. Finding Completion with this Advaithic principle.

See, it is almost like the question of whether egg first or chicken first: whether you will start doing Completion and then you will find more Completion with Advaitha, or you will find Completion with Advaitha and then start doing Completion. First you say, ‘No, no, no, first let this philosophy prove it is going to be useful for me, then I will complete.’ The philosophy says, ‘No, no, no, no, first you do Completion, then I will prove I am useful to you.’ Who will roll the ball? Somebody has to do that first. The egg says, ‘Come on, let the chicken lay me.’ And the chicken says, ‘No, no, come on, let the egg be there, then I will come out of it.’ Who will make the first move? And you say, ‘No, no, let this science prove itself useful to me.’ The science says, ‘No, let him go practice me, then I will prove I am useful to him.’ To give confidence, that science embodies itself in human-being form and inspires you; that form is Guru! To give you the courage, ‘Come on, here I am, radiating Advaitha! Live it! It does good for you! It does good for you!’ Giving you the confidence!

See, whenever you are cheated by somebody, the distrust becomes strong in you. ‘Oh, you should never trust this human-being!’ Whenever you are loved by somebody, the trust on life and people becomes strong. I tell you, when Guru loves you, it is equivalent to the whole life, the whole humanity loving you! He just fulfils you from all dimensions! He overflows you! Because, he is the embodiment of Completion. When he expresses his love, Advaitha Sathya, he is demonstrating his love to you. So, naturally, you will feel complete with Advaitha Sathya. When he trains you, the whole life will train you! I will never distrust you. He can never distrust, he can never give up. He can never distrust, he can never give up. Understand!

Please listen! Even a little bit of practice will bring trust on the Science of Completion. Once you get that trust on the Science of Completion, no one can destroy you; you are liberated! You ARE liberated! Having Completion with Completion itself is liberation. Having incompletion with Completion is death. I have a few people who go on saying, ‘All problems are with me only. But I cannot do Completion! What to do?’ No, there are people! ‘I cannot do Completion! What to do?’ If you have incompletion with Completion, who can save you? Who can do anything? Completion with this great principle of Advaitha!

Krishna says in the Gita:

“स्वल्पम् अप्यस्य धर्मस्य....”

“Svalpam apyasya dharmasya....”

“Even if a little of this science is practiced....”

Even if just half-an-hour you spend in Completion process every day....

You won’t accumulate incompletions which need more than half-an-hour to complete every day. How much ever you may think, ‘No, no, no, you don’t know Swamiji how many incompletions I create! If I turn right, incompletions! Left, incompletions! Centre, incompletions! Back, incompletions! Below, incompletions! Above, incompletions!’ Even if you collect..... No, I have people who collect incompletions like this! I call them “Incompletion Collectors”. “Incompletion Collectors”! Just like Stamp Collectors (Philatelists), Sword Collectors, there are so many special collectors. See, people collect stamps, and people collect different size and type of swords. I have the habit of collecting different types of rudrakshas. Actually, I can tell, even as on now, the world’s largest rudraksha collection is with me! All the makes, all the sizes! Sizes from half a millimetre to maximum available size on Planet Earth, Guinness size! Whether it is one “mukhi” (one faced), two “mukhi”, three “mukhi”, or sixteen “mukhi”, all sizes, all shapes! Largest variety and largest number, collection of rudrakshas! Actually, I wanted to have a beautiful museum here to display the whole thing for people to have darshan and get inspired. We will build and have a museum. May be in Tiruvannamalai we will have the museum. Just like people have the habit of stamp collection, coin collection – there are people who collect all types of coins (numismatists); there are some people who collect all kinds of musical instruments! – like that, there are some people who collect all types of incompletions. You can’t imagine even for this they can collect incompletion! ‘Why this plant is not giving flower for the last three days?’ ‘Why this monkey is walking only when I am coming out?’ ‘Why this stray dog is turning away from me when I am walking?’ No, it is like “Incompletions Collection”! Wherever they go, like Madhukari Bhiksha they collect Madhukari Incompletion Bhiksha! ‘Please put some little incompletion and go.’ ‘How can you go without putting a little incompletion?’ Even if you are a great incompletion collector, you cannot collect more than half-an-hour worth of incompletions. Every day if you spend half-an-hour, your incompletions will be complete.

Beautifully, Bhagawan says:

नेहाभिक्रम नाशोऽस्ति प्रत्यवायो न विध्यते |

स्वल्पम् अप्यस्य धर्मस्य त्रायते महतो भयात् ||

Nehaabhikrama naashosthi prathyavaayo na vidhyathe |

Svalpam apyasya dharmasya thraayathe mahatho bhayaath ||

(BG 2.40)

It is so nice that....even to be able to understand the Bhagavad Gita in Sanskrit directly. Actually, I have to read once or twice; only then I will be able to break the words. Then I will be able to understand. Nobody believes me when I say I am not a great Sanskrit pundit. Anyhow...that is okay. But I understand....I can understand.

“स्वल्पम् अप्यस्य धर्मस्य त्रायते महतो भयात्”

“Svalpam apyasya dharmasya thraayathe mahatho bhayaath”

“Just practicing a little bit can release you from the great fears”

Even if you practice just half-an-hour a day the Completion...... See, first six months, you should take this as a ritual. Within six months you will see you will achieve Completion with Completion! When you achieve Completion with Completion, just thinking, thinking, thinking, just by casual thinking you will complete with everything and drop it. That is what I call “Enlightened Thinking”, “Liberated Thinking”. “Liberated Thinking” means, just by thinking, declaring to yourself, you drop the incompletions, and those incompletions don’t come back through the back door and harm you, haunt you, you will have Liberated Thinking. That is what is “Liberated Thinking”. Just by declaration to yourself if the incompletions collapse, if you can be complete, and they don’t come back and harm you, harass you, haunt you, it is “Liberated Thinking”.

Bring Completion with Completion. Bring Completion with Completion. I can tell you very clearly, the tremendous Completion I experienced with Advaitha.....listen.....the tremendous Completion I experienced with Advaitha, that gave me the courage to live it, radiate it, experience it, expand on it.

I will continue to expand on this principle in further satsanghs. Today I will answer your questions, your requests, your boon requests. You can call me for whatever reason you want to reach out to me. If you have any questions, it can be anything from Vaasthu to Enlightenment, and Astrology to the ultimate reality....you want to make some of your dreams into reality, or you want to realize your reality itself is one more dream, for any reason you can call me. And I open all my knowledge! Literally, the Sarvajna Peeta is available to you now to answer your queries, questions! You can call from anywhere in the world. Sarvajna Peeta, means, omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent is waiting to answer your questions. HAHAHAHAHAHA!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

DIAL THE AVATAR-IN PROGRESS...........

Question from a caller: My question is that, like, you said, ‘If you can control your emotion, you can control the ocean.’

Swamiji: Listen! It is not “controlling”; it is “completing”. Means, anything which happens in you, if you can master it, you can master any power outside. I will expand on it. I will expand on it in some of the further satsanghs.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

So, with this, I bless you all! Let you all radiate with Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility, Enriching and Causing eternal bliss, Nithyananda! Thank you!

Nithyanandeshwara Samaarambhaam

Nithyanandeshwari Madhyamaam |

Asmath Aachaarya Paryanthaam

Vandhey Guru Paramparaam ||

I welcome all of you with my love and respects. I welcome all the devotees, disciples, sitting with us all over the world through Nithyananda TV, Sadhna TV, two-way video-conferencing.

Today, “Glimpses of my Inner Awakening”! The participants who are having their Inner Awakening are going to share their experience of Inner Awakening.

Before that, today, Skandha Sashti Brahmotsava is happening in Bidadi, the third day of Skanda Sashti Brahmotsava. Skandha, Subrahmanya, with both his consorts, Valli and Devayanai, is gracing us on the Suvarna Mayura Vaahana. On the Golden Peacock Vehicle he is gracing us.

So, let us first have Skandha’s darshan. With his blessings, we will proceed now into the programme.

AARATHI TO SKANDHA IS PERFORMED...........FOLLOWED BY NITHYANANDA TIMES VIDEO MAGAZINE OF 25 OCTOBER 2014.......AND THEN “GLIMPSES OF MY INNER AWAKENING” SHARING BY PARTICIPANTS OF THE 29^TH INNER AWAKENING...........

(One of the most inspiring sharings was by a lady from Bangalore who came to the Inner Awakening on a wheelchair straight from the ICU of a hospital, brought by Dr. Srilekha of Bangalore Vijayanagara Sangha. And, there she was on stage, standing straight, fit as a fiddle, hale and hearty, no wheelchair or any other props to support her, sharing her experiences with a blissful smile! Wow!)

(SWAMIJI CONTINUES THE SATSANGH AFTER THE INNER AWAKENING PARTICIPANTS SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES):

So, with this..... Actually, you can see the whole Cosmos here! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! A teenage Residential Non-Indian (RNI), and elderly couple who are soaked in orthodox brahmanical lifestyle, an elderly western lady who has her own problems, and a young western man who has his own life and incompletions, and a person who is born in India, brought up somewhere, living in UK.....! No, you can see, whatever is their inner awakening, their Completion! HAHAHAHAHAHA! It is so nice! So amazing to see!

Actually, even Ganga enjoys the various people entering into her ghat and using her in multiple ways. Understand, when she is coming down to Gangotri, she sees only Yogis; when she is coming down further to Uttarkashi, she sees people who are worshippers; when she comes down to Rishikesh, she sees people who are doing Hatha Yoga; when she comes down to Haridwar, she sees Naga Sadhus; when she comes down to Varanasi, she sees people who are taking bath; when she moves further to Manikarnika, she sees tons of dead bodies getting relieved, having enlightenment; when she comes down to Kanpur, she sees all the leather factories; when she comes down to Kolkata, she sees the amazing Kaali worshippers! And, thousands of people, millions of people enjoying her in many ways, even she enjoys! I tell you, millions of people enjoying me in millions of ways, even I enjoy it! Somebody enjoying the friendliness, somebody enjoying my mystical powers, somebody enjoying my intelligence, somebody enjoying the way I give attention, somebody enjoying just looking into my eyes! And, I also enjoy the way all of you enjoy me! So, understand, it is not that only you are grateful to me, I am also grateful to you guys for being here and sharing this joy, this bliss with me! It is nice to be with you guys!

And, I wanted to just make this one statement as the essence of today’s satsangh, of whatever you heard: HAVING COMPLETION WITH THE PRINCIPLE OF ADVAITHA, DHARMA.

Understand, when I found Advaitha, when Advaitha clicked with me..... Let me be very honest, it is Arunagiri Yogishwara who taught Advaitha to me personally!

I think I will take little more time. The moment I uttered the word “Arunagiri Yogishwara”, I know I am going to speak more time......HAHAHAHAHA......I am not going to end the satsangh! HAHAHAHAHA!

I tell you, the first thing I experienced, I found solution, I do not have any more anxiety, fear, cause for fear! I do not have anything which can make me powerless or frighten me. That Completion, like a bomb exploding in me! I fell in love with Advaitha! I fell in love with the person who introduced that Advaitha to me! Understand, I fell in love with Advaitha, and I fell in love with the person who introduced Advaitha to me and who was the embodiment of Advaitha for me.

I tell you, that Completion, and I know for sure, anything in life, I know this dhamma, dharma, the Advaitha is there. I can never fall into powerlessness, and I am always powerful, and the powerlessness has lost meaning. Even Fear cannot frighten me, Death cannot kill me! The whole thing, the powerlessness, fear, anxiety, lost meaning in my life. The Completion with Dhamma, the Completion with Advaitha, when that clicked into me, I know I have experienced the space of falling in love with.....I can say, “rising in love” with dhamma, and rising in love with the Master who gives that dhamma, who is the embodiment of that Advaitha. Because I experienced this with Arunagiri Yogishwara, I can understand you guys, what you guys actually experienced with me. And, I want to tell you, with all my being, I sincerely reciprocate that with you guys, reciprocate that to you guys. I know what you are going through! You don’t have to think, ‘Oh, whether he understands or not what I am feeling for him?’ Don’t worry, I understand! HAHAHAHAHA! I understand more than you understand, because I have been through this with Arunagiri Yogishwara....I have been through this with Arunagiri Yogishwara.

And, I still remember.... It may look too mystical, but I am not talking to.....I am very clear, I am talking to my disciples, my devotees. I am not talking to anybody else. When I was seeing Arunagiri Yogishwara every day and listening from him, learning from him, experiencing from him, every night I have to leave the temple to come to the house. I will leave around eleven o’clock, because by twelve they will lock the doors, all the watchmen. I think, in those days, the temple used to be very free. The watchman will.... just if I say, ‘I will sit here some more time’, they will say, ‘Yes, yes’ and allow me; they will not have any problem. And, by night eleven I will come back to the house, and early morning four o’clock I will run back to the temple. But those four hours used to look too much! I used to feel it is like ten days, those four hours. And, I constantly used to be watching the clock, ‘Why this clock is not moving? This stupid clock, why the time is not happening?’ And I used to suspect whether the clock has stopped. I sometimes used to run and see the next room clock to see whether that clock is also showing the same time, or whether my clock has stopped running! I used to have this cranky thing. I just want to run back to be with him, with Arunagiri Yogishwara. It used to be so strong, may be, after ten-fifteen days I told him directly, ‘I feel that every night the time is too long.’ I am trying to get the exact words, Tamil words, and tell you. The conversation I was having with him, I am trying to translate exactly that. I told him that, ‘Every night it is too much!’ I will repeat in Tamil. I will say in Tamil; then I will translate. I don’t want to miss that original statement as it happened.

I was sitting with him holding his knee, the right knee. Whenever I sat with him, I will always hold his hand or his leg or some part of his body. I used to feel some energy is coming from him. HAHAHAHAHAHA! I was putting both my hands on his knee and I was saying, ‘Saami, Saami, dhinam raathiri indha watchu nagaravey maateyngudhu! Indha time-piece (alarm-clock) nagaravey maateyngudhu! Raathiri pogavey maateyngudhu! Naalu mani neram, naalu naal maadhiri irukudhu! Indha time-piece ah naanum nagathi nagathi paakiren, timeay nagara maateyngudhu! Time-piece ah nagathina, time nagara maateyngudhu! Enna pannaradhu Saami?’

Please understand, I was telling him that ‘Even if I move this time piece, the time is not moving. So I don’t know what to do! The time looks huge....too much! These four hours look like four days! I don’t know what to do!’ I remember exactly what he said: ‘Unakku mattum allada! Enakkum appadi thaanda irukku! Adhunaala thaaneyda kaalatthaye surukkidaren unakkaaga!’ He told me, ‘Not only for you, even for me it is like that only! So, that is why I am reducing the whole Time for you to be with me!’ He said these very words! He said...then he expanded: ‘Nee vandhu enna paaka, Sooryan, Chandran, ellaatheyum naan maatha veyndi irukke!’ Means, he said, ‘For you to come quickly and sit with me, I have to move the Sun, Moon, everybody, and change the whole Time, and quicken the process of time movement!’ Then I know, it is not that only the disciple feels, the Master also feels!

If you guys are moving only small things to be here, I am moving bigger things for me to be here with you guys! Understand, if you guys are moving only small things, whatever needed, to be here with me, I am moving bigger things for you guys for you to be with me! I am trying to move only the stupid time-piece, alarm-clock, to be with Arunagiri Yogishwara; he is moving the Sun and the Moon for me to be with him! Understand, what we move is toy; what he moves is Cosmos! You move your toys to be with me; I move the Cosmos for you to be with me! I moved my toy alarm-piece to be with him; he moved the Sun and the Moon for me to be with him! Understand, he also celebrates....I understood. I wanted to tell you guys, I also celebrate you being here....you being here!

What to say? The essence: See you guys all in Cambodia to celebrate! And, I tell you guys, you move yourself just to fill the Intention Form; I move the whole Cosmos to make it into reality! HAHAHAHAHAHA! I only moved the time-piece, alarm-clock; he moved the Sun and the Moon! I tell you, you just move to fill the Intention Form, I will move the Cosmos to make it into reality! See you guys in Cambodia! That is all! I bless you all!

As you all may be aware, from Deepavali day, I started the Sarvadarshan again. We will have Sarvadarshan now; and then e-Kalpataru Darshan for Kuala Lumpur and Melbourne, Kuala Lumpur-Palani-Malaysia, and Melbourne-Thiruvarur-Australia. And then we will continue. Today we have a very powerful, important session – Past Life Regression – for the Inner Awakening participants! A real strong, long session!

And, with this, I bless you all! Let you all radiate with Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility, Enriching and Causing eternal bliss, Nithyananda! Thank you!

MORNING SATSANGH BY PARAMAHAMSA NITHYANANDA – BIDADI, THURSDAY, 9 OCTOBER 2014 – NOTES

Nithyanandeshwara Samaarambhaam

Nithyanandeshwari Madhyamaam |

Asmath Aachaarya Paryanthaam

Vandhey Guru Paramparaam ||

I welcome all the devotees, disciples, samajis, satsanghis, Shrimahants, Mahants, Kotharis, Thanedars, visitors, viewers, sitting with us through Nithyananda TV, Sadhna TV, and two-way video-conferencing having Nayana Deeksha.

Cities sitting with us in two-way video-conferencing all over the world: Grasse-France, Houston-Kalahasti, Guadeloupe-Rameshwaram, San Jose-Madurai, Los Angeles-Hollywood, Hebbal-Bangalore, London-Kashi, Surrey-Canada, Dubai-Vaidyanatham, Ohio-Ma Shivananda, Tiruvannamalai, Slim River-Swamimalai, Hyderabad-Gupta Kashi, Oklahoma-Somanatham, Charlotte-Srisailam, London-Kashi, Toronto-Kailasam, Ohio-Prayag, St. Louis-Tirumala, Nithyananda University-Los Angeles, Oman-Sivagangai.... More and more cities are joining.

I welcome all of you with my love and respects.

Today, I wanted to expand on these two sacred truths:

First, listen, please internalize, the first truth: ANYTHING WHICH IS TRUTH, STRENGTHENS YOU. ANYTHING WHICH IS OVERLAPPED ON THE TRUTH – “BELIEF” – WHETHER IT CREATES GREED IN YOU OR FEAR IN YOU, WEAKENS YOU EVEN WHILE YOU ARE BELIEVING; not only after you are disillusioned, even while you are believing, it weakens you.

Please listen! Anything which is truth, goes on strengthening you even while you are working with it, while you are practicing it. The great truth, Nithyanandoham, Shivoham, “I am the Ultimate Possibility”, when you work with this truth – understand, when I say “I am the Ultimate Possibility”, I mean you ARE the Ultimate Possiblity – when you are working with that truth, even while you are working, it strengthens you day by day. But, anything which is belief, which is not true, which creates fear or greed in you, weakens you continuously even while you are believing it; not only after the disillusionment – after the disillusionment you will completely feel powerless, you will feel deprived, cheated, you will feel you lost, wasted – not that only after you get disillusioned you will feel cheated and deprived, even while you are working with it, you will feel powerless. Shivoham, deciding to work with the truth, Shivoham, please understand, this truth you cannot just believe and keep quiet. The truth is so powerful, it will provoke you to work towards it....it will provoke you to work towards it.

Truth uttered by the right person, listened to by the right being, provokes you to work towards it. It can never be one more sermon. No! Satsangh is not sermon or discourse. After the discourse or during the discourse, you can be sleeping, continue to be in slumber. But satsangh provokes you! Neither during, nor after, you can be in slumber or sleeping. It provokes you. It awakens you. That is the right word I should use: “It awakens you!” While you are working with the truth, Shivoham, even while you are working, you have to take responsibility for it. Don’t expect somebody else can take the responsibility for your reality. If somebody else takes the responsibility for your reality, it will never be YOUR reality. Yes, Guru can take the responsibility to make you responsible; not for anything else. Guru can take the responsibility to make you responsible. That is why his love is never appreciated. His love is not the cosy, comfortable feeling you felt in the name of love in your life when you were young. The pattern you believe as love – you cry, and your mom rushes to you and gives you food or candy, your dad rushes and gives you some sweet or toy or whatnot, your aunt brings clothes, your uncle brings you sweet – what you believe as love, the pattern of action-reaction which you believe as love, you will not experience that from the Master, from an enlightened being. The love he radiates makes you like him. That is why you constantly feel....you feel energized when you come near the Master, when you are in his presence, when you listen to his words, when you imbibe his presence; but you will not feel the so-called love; and if you feel what you felt as love pattern from the young age, from the Master also, maybe he is giving you a little time to settle down and become comfortable. I do play the role of father, mother and uncle, for the first few days till the transition happens in you – you need to move from that to this – but not more than that. My love will make you responsible for the great truth of Shivoham, for the great truth of your reality.

Understand, the truth has to constantly strengthen you. The truth has to constantly strengthen you. Anything which weakens you day by day is a “belief”. Anything which strengthens you day by day is a “reality”. Sit and open your whole being and see what all is in you which is strengthening you day by day; support them and stand by them. What all is in you which weakens you day by day, complete with them and drop them. Whether it is emotion, belief, thought-currents, patterns, ideas, theories, theologies, whatever is strengthening you day by day, it is reality; work with it; work more and more with it. Whatever is weakening you, whatever is weakening you, be very clear, it is belief; it is belief system. Belief weakens you while you are with it and also after it leaves you, both. Even after disillusionment you will repent for wasting your time in those stupid beliefs.

The first truth I want you to internalize today: ANYTHING WHICH STRENGTHENS YOU IS REALITY. Cherish it, meditate on it, encourage it, contemplate on it, awaken it in you more and more and more, take responsibility for it more and more and more. ANYTHING WHICH WEAKENS YOU, BE VERY CLEAR, IT IS THE BELIEF SYSTEM. Belief system either will create fear or greed, because, that is the only way it can create the false excitement in you. Please understand, excitement is life. Either it is created in you by fear or greed, or it can be created in you by responsibility and enriching.

Yesterday, I was having a discussion with one of my Mahants. She was very serious, asking me this question. I think sincere also. She was asking me: ‘Swamiji, sixty percent of the time I feel I should do what you are saying and inspiring and all that; but thirty-forty percent of the time I feel what is there? What am I going to gain even if I do this?’ I said, ‘This forty percent will destroy the whole sixty, because forty percent poison is enough to destroy the whole sixty percent milk!’ The answer I gave her, I wanted to expand now for all of you. Listen!

From the young age you would have never been taught the truth that responsibility and enriching can create excitement in you. Only fear and greed can create was used as a driving force. Society constantly treated you as an animal. It was fear and greed, only those two were used to drive you. Only those two sticks were used to drive you. You have been treated as a slum dog by society. It never taught you the royal way of exciting yourself. Understand, the beggar way of exciting yourself is driving you by fear and greed. The royal way of exciting yourself is through responsibility and enriching. It is this shift which makes you royal. Neither the palace nor the power, or the buildings, make you royal. All those are paraphernalia. What drives you from inside, that makes you royal. Of course, the nine years, the life I lived begging, sleeping under the trees, I never felt in that whole nine years that I did not have something. I am very clear! There are many people who lived around me during that period, or when this organization was not around me, they are all witness. Never that experience of royalness was added to me by any of this organizational structure, or never it was missing when this organization was not there. Understand, it is dependent on what drives you. If responsibilism and enriching excites you, you are a king wherever you are. If fear or greed drives you, you are a street dog wherever you are. Even street dogs have some organizations to protect them; you don’t even have that! Even beggars have an organization to protect them; you don’t even have that!

What drives you, understand, any idea, the more and more you work with it, it should be making you responsible and enriching; then that idea is truth. Any idea, when you more and more work with it, if it creates fear or greed in you, then it is a belief, not reality. Shivoham – “I am the Ultimate Possibility I can visualize” – when you are working with this truth; it will naturally make you more and more responsible, and more and more enriching.

A few days before, I received a message from one of my Mahants from Mumbai Sangha. The whole Sangha went for bhiksha. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! The message I received, the feedback I received is, ‘Swamiji, we are so excited, enthusiastic, energetic!’ Usually, beggars, when they go for bhiksha and come back, they are completely collapsed and they have so much of guilt about themselves, disrespect about themselves. They will repent, curse themselves what kind of birth they are having. Here you see, these guys (Mumbai Sangha), after coming back from bhikshatana, they say, ‘We are so excited, we are not able to sleep! We are so energetic!’ Means, understand, that act is not from fear or greed; it is from responsibilism and enriching. Because, you are there to give and not to receive! But human-beings are always afraid; even if you want to give something great, they are afraid! So you go with the shield of “you have come to ask”. They think, ‘They have come to ask only; so they are in my control.’

There is a beautiful, very beautiful example. Just like Zen masters have koans, Dasas – Kabirdas, Ramdas, Vittaldas, Purandaradasa – all the Dasa Parampara sants have their own couplets. They sing in couplets. Kabirdas, Purandaradasa, Vittaldas, Ramadas, Kanakadasa, this Dasa Parampara, they sing in couplets. Natha Parampara, they sing in verses. Aghoris, their chants are called “hoonkaaraas”. Aghoris.... India had some of the amazing spiritual gems produced by amazing spiritual traditions. Bauls, in Bengal they were very popular. They are called “Baul”. Baul means “paagal”, mad. They were intoxicated by the divine madness; so they were called “paagals” (madcaps). So, Baul Sampradaya, Aghori Sampradaya, Natha Sampradaya, Dasa Sampradaya, each of these Sampradayas have their own methods of expressing their teachings. Bauls sing; Dasas write couplets; Nathas write shlokas. Aghoris are not that sophisticated; their teachings are called “Hoonkaaras”; means, just they will create a sound “hooooooooo”. In that “hoooooo” sound they will utter a few words, and again the sound “hooooo” they will continue. Because they (Aghoris) live in the smashaana (cremation ground), they pick up the sound of the fox, wolves. So they make the sound of exactly fox, wolf, and dog. Smashaana Vaasi Aghoris.

There is a beautiful description in one of the Aghori’s “hoonkaara dhwani”. I cannot say they are verses, because, they are not poetically right or grammatically right; they are just a few words uttered here and there, and then hoonkaara, their hoonkaara sounds. It says, ‘When you are giving the bhiksha, be aware that the Brahma Kapaala (skull of Brahma) which Mahadeva carries will just eat away your whole ignorance also! Not only what you give, but it will just eat away your ignorance also! So, unless you are ready to renounce the ignorance, don’t come out of your house to give bhiksha when Mahadeva comes and stands outside your house and asks, “Bhavathi Bhikshaandehi”!’ Understand, be aware, the person who is standing outside your house with a begging bowl, his begging bowl is not an ordinary bowl which will just take what you are offering; it is Brahma Kapaala. If you stretch your hand to give what you are offering, it will eat away even your ignorance!

I tell you, all our Mahants, Mumbai Sangha, when they went for bhiksha, they were going for enriching. They were not going out of fear or greed. They were going with responsibility and enriching! Responsibility and enriching! They were going with the responsibility to enrich. That is why it is so exciting....it is so exciting, it is so energizing, it is so inspiring! I wanted all the Thanedars, Kotharis, devotees, disciples.....do this! You will understand the power of it! Don’t go for bhiksha out of fear or greed. Go with the responsibility of enriching. You will see it is so exciting, it is so inspiring!

Whether you are a beggar or a prince is not decided by the paraphernalia around you. There were many princes who were put on the throne; but, fear and greed was the driving force in them. They were never able to be successful kings, queens. There were many people, just beggars, in this country, whose driving force was responsibility and enriching. They lived like royal kings and queens on this Planet Earth. Sadashiva Brahmendra didn’t even own a piece of cloth. But the best royal body language I have seen in my experience is Sadashiva Brahmendra’s body language!

When responsibility and enriching excites you, you will simply create a kingdom around you! Wherever you are, kingdom will simply happen around you, and you will be the leader of you! As long as fear and greed is the driving force, you will never be alive, because, any one small word from anybody can trigger you to your core and shake you...can shake you! You are like a football; anybody who has a foot can kick you!

Work more and more, understand, work more and more to strengthen your responsibility and enriching part exciting you. Work more and more to strengthen the responsibility and enriching part. There is no difference between you and me. I have more problems than you have, because, all your problems are mine! You have not taken the responsibility and you are waiting for somebody to fall from heaven to take the responsibility for you. I have decided to stand up and take the responsibility for me, that’s all. You are waiting for somebody to fall from heaven and take responsibility for all your problems in life. In my case, I have decided to grow tall till heaven and stand up for me and take the responsibility, that’s all; nothing else. Not only responsibility for my life and my problems, even the problems people bring to me asking for help, even for THEIR lives and THEIR problems!

Understand..... Listen! Listen! Listen! There is no difference between you and me. I have decided to strengthen the reality component in me which is constantly strengthening me, and discard the belief component in me which is constantly weakening me. You also have both components. Just see which is weakening you constantly; complete and drop them. Just see which is strengthening you constantly; entertain, encourage, enrich, work with it, and strengthen that part of you again and again and again; that’s all! What enriches you, let that be your entertainment! What enriches you, let that be your entrainment! What enriches you, let that be your enlightenment! The action can be as simple as pouring water on Shiva Linga, or going from street to street and taking bhiksha, or cooking and feeding people, or doing your office work, or doing your household work, cleaning your Living Room. Whatever may be the action, if the context is the reality, it strengthens you every day. While you are sleeping, ask yourself why are you doing it. If the answer can be connected to the reality of you, even that small action strengthens your reality. Let every action, every thought be questioned by you – ‘Whether fear and greed is making me do this, or responsibility and enriching is making me do this?’ Choose! Choose! Choose! Align! Align! Align! Choose! Choose! Choose! Align! Align! Align! Again and again choose the right context, align yourself to the right context.

The second truth I wanted to tell you: LET YOUR ACTION BE CONSISTENT. Don’t get diluted. Even these simple things like why I am asking you to wear the Rudraksha or Sundaravadam. I can see, in many sannyasis it is missing now. Now I have to remind, and ask the Mahants, ‘Hey, what happened?’. Then they will say, ‘You are also not wearing!’ Arrey, copper vessel needs to be polished everyday; gold need not be! My bio-memory need not be strengthened everyday now anymore! So, don’t try to question me when I ask you! Even this simple thing, being consistent, especially while you are practicing. Once your very being radiates Shivoham, whether you apply vibhooti or put rudraksha, your being sings the truth. But till then, be consistent in your practice, because, that helps you to align....that helps you to align.

All the most powerful spiritual traditions, the traditions which created mass enlightened beings, mass blissful beings – Natha, Baul, means “paagal”, and Dasa, Buddhist, Aghoris – I can say, these five-six traditions created the mass enlightened beings, all of them have these two practices, preliminary first spiritual practices. Please understand, all of them consistently have these two spiritual practices. Still I am not able to completely demystify why all of them have these two as first spiritual practices. Natha, Yoga, Baul, Nirvani, Buddhist, Dasa, and Aghoris, all, the moment somebody comes as a disciple, two instructions they will give:

· Live in cremation ground.

· Go for bhiksha and give food to others. Understand, they are not saying, ‘Beg and eat.’ They are saying, ‘Beg and share!’

And, I am telling you, these traditions are so diametrically opposite in their concepts, beliefs, contexts! Bauls hate Vedantis. Vedantis cannot stand Bauls. Bauls are the only Sampradaya Vedantis have refused entry to in Kumbha Mela! In Kumbha Mela, no one is ever refused entry. Bauls are the Sampradaya they don’t allow in Kumbha Mela. Bauls have a separate Kumbha Mela. And, they also say, ‘Don’t even fall in the shadow of a Vedanti! If somebody is a Vedanti, don’t even go to their house for bhiksha!’ And, on the other side, Buddhists, they cannot stand Vaidhiks. There are many Buddhists who will tie their ears with a cloth or cotton if the Vedic mantras are chanted there! And, Dasa Parampara, they cannot stand Vedantis. This fight goes on eternally.

One day, a Vedanti, in the Ganga Ghat.... Varanasi Ganga Ghat is the place where all these traditions meet. Whether they become friends or fight, they all meet there. The Ghats of Varanasi, I tell you, is the most sacred place for Vedic tradition. It is a billion times more sacred than any temple, any monastery, because, that is where everything merged, everything faces each other. So, in that Varanasi Ghat, one Vedanti wrote on a wall in big letters – “SOHAM”. Means, “I am That”. Next day, when he came back, he saw one Dasa Parampara sadhu had put “DA” in front of that word “Soham”. It now read “DASOHAM”. Means, “I am the Servant”. And this Vedanti cannot keep quiet. Next day day, this Vedanti added in front of that, the word “SA”. It now read “SADASOHAM”. Means, “Always I am That”. He put “SA” and went away. Next day, the Dasa Parampara fellow didn’t keep quiet. That fellow comes and puts one more “DA” and made it “DASADASOHAM”. And this fellow (the Vedanti) comes and adds one more “SA” to make it “SADASADASOHAM”! And it continues....”DASADASADASOHAM”.....”SADASADASADASOHAM”...!

They can’t stand each other! Because I became enlightened at the age of twelve, I didn’t take any stand. I enjoyed all these fights. I am telling you, I enjoyed all these fights! I used to nicely put full “Naamam” (vertical line or lines drawn on the forehead to denote followers of Vishnu) and go for the Dasa Parampara bhandaras and listen to all the discussions, fights they have, and, next day, I put nice “Vibhooti” and “Kumkum” and go for Vedanta Parampara bhandara....HAHAHAHAHAHAHA....and nicely listen to all their conversations, fights, everything! I understood one truth: People fight in the name of Brahmasutra Shankara Bhashya, Brahmasutra Ramanuja Bhashya, Brahmasutra Madhva Bhashya; but, unfortunately, none of these fellows who fight have ever read those books! Anyhow..... All these fellows can’t stand each other; but, very surprising, shocking, all of them consistently use these two techniques. Whether you go and get initiated into Dasa Parampara, or Nirvani Naga, or Aghori, or Buddhist, or Baul, any Sampradaya you go and get initiated, these two will be the first instructions:

· Beg and share.

· Sit in the cremation ground and meditate whatever happens.

I realized that these two processes make you powerful, responsible and enriching. End of the day, whether you are a Baul, Dasa, Vedanti, Yogi, Aghori, Buddhist, the enlightenment you need to experience happens only by these two qualities: Responsibility and Enriching. These two are awakened in you by the “Madhukari Bhiksha” and “Smashaana Vaasa”.....Madhukari Bhiksha and Smashaana Vaasa! Understand, the Madhukari Bhiksha takes away your deep anger, the violence you carry towards life and others. It just heals you, completes you.

Yesterday, I was explaining in Inner Awakening session about “offensive wars” and “defensive wars” – having minimal violence just to protect you, and having aggressive violence, constantly attacking everyone. These two have a huge difference. Krishna, Pandavas – minimal violence just to protect them. Duryodhana – aggressive violence. See, minimal violence, protecting yourself – it cannot even be called as “violence” – it is always out of powerfulness. Aggressive violence, attacking others, is always out of powerlessness. People ask me, ‘How do you emerge victorious all the time, Swamiji? How many ever times you are attacked, you emerge victorious next day on the peetha, giving satsanghs!’ I tell you, I don’t have violence. I don’t attack. I am just powerful enough to protect myself, defend myself and the Sangha; that’s all. As long as nobody attacks me, I don’t even look at them. Even when I am attacked, I never attacked them back; I only protected myself and the Sangha. And anybody who doesn’t attack me, I not only don’t attack them, I give them all the power I have! Anybody who doesn’t use power to attack me and the Sangha, I am ready to give them anything! Sometimes people think they are like Bhasmasura, that they can take a boon from me and then put their hand on my head. Come on! I have Vishnu! Don’t think that there is no protection mechanism. Actually, Vishnu came to kill Bhasmasura. Even otherwise, Bhasmasura cannot make Mahadeva into ashes by putting his hand on his head; because he (Mahadeva) gave the power, he also knows how to take the power back! Come on! Even Brahma could not reach the head of Mahadeva after searching, searching, searching. How do you expect Bhasmasura can reach Mahadeva’s head?

When Brahma was travelling towards Mahadeva’s head, the flower which was coming down, Brahma caught that flower and asked, ‘Where are you coming from?’

The flower replied, ‘No, no, Mahadeva kept me in his ears and I have fallen from his ears.’

Not even head; his ears!

Brahma asks, ‘How long have you been coming down?’

The flower replies, ‘Four Brahmas’ age (lifetime of four Brahmas put together) I have been coming down.’

Then Brahma thought, ‘I have to take four janmas (births) to reach Mahadeva’s ears!’

‘Chathur Brahma Kalpa Paryantham – four Brahmas’ age – I am coming down’, the flower said.

Then Brahma asked, ‘Then tell me at least where are we now?’

The flower replied, ‘May be somewhere near Mahadeva’s shoulder.’

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

But, anyhow, Mahadeva does not want to play with this Bhasmasura anymore, and it is time to kill him, and, so, Vishnu came and did what had to be done. Anyhow...

All I am trying to tell you is, I have no anger or enmity towards anybody. As long as they don’t attack me, my blessings. When they attack me, I just protect myself and the Sangha, that’s all; defend myself and the Sangha. When you are in the space of powerfulness, you always win the war!

Even sometimes people who attack me, they come back and fall at my feet and tell, ‘Oh....I attacked you....’ I tell them, ‘Past is past. If you don’t attack me anymore, that is enough. Let us be friends. You live your life, I will live my life. For the sake of the future, let us complete the past. Let us not drag the past. Because of the past, let us not destroy the future. For the sake of the future, let us complete the past.’

Always look at life, understand, always look at life and bring Completion into you....Completion into you....Completion into you.

Madhukari Bhiksha, Smashaana Vaasa! Actually, Varanasi has beautiful settlements. Buddhist Sarnath, Nagas, Nirvani, Dasa Parampara, Bauls, Aghori, Kinaram Baba, all of them have settlements around. You go and take initiation in any Sampradaya, first they will say, ‘Sit in Manikarnika Ghat, and go for Madhukari Bhiksha. It is an initiation rule. So, all the initiates will be sitting in Manikarnika Ghat at night, and going around in the day for Bhiksha, Madhukari Bhiksha, because it makes you responsible and enriching.

Living at the Master’s feet is both “bhikshavandhana” and living in the smashaana, both, because, it constantly enriches you and makes you responsible.

With this, I bless you all! Let you all radiate with Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility, Enriching and Causing eternal bliss, Nithyananda! Thank you!
