157. What is Nithya Spiritual Healing?

Nithya Spiritual Healing is healing through cosmic energy. The cosmic energy is different from the energy that we know in various forms such as electrical energy. Electrical energy does not have its own intelligence. If you put a light bulb into an electric socket, the current will flow and the bulb will glow. If you put your finger in that electric socket, the same current will flow but you will receive an electric shock! The electricity does not have the intelligence to determine what to do while flowing. But cosmic energy is pure intelligence.

Although the cosmic energy is often compared to the electric current, it is very different from it. It can never do anything wrong because it has its own independent intelligence.

Who can receive energy? The person with open heart and mind

Who can receive the energy? Anybody who is in need can receive the energy. It is not restricted in any way. There are a few tips that help a person receive the energy in a beautiful way. People with an open heart and open mind receive the energy more easily and quickly than those who question the energy with their logic.

If your mind is open, you will not resist the healing energy.

Many people ask me, 'Should we have faith to get healed?'

I tell them there is no need to have faith. To know that an apple is tasty you don't need to believe. Just have a bite, and you will know. That's all! To know the sun is rising in the east you don't need to believe it. Just open your eyes and see, you will know for yourself. There is no need to blindly believe. To receive healing, you don't need to have faith. You need to have only one thing: an open mind, the willingness to receive. If your mind is open, you will not resist the healing energy.

Try to understand the concept and enter into it with full sincerity, that is enough. Just have the courage and openness to experiment without demanding proof of experience before even experimenting. Integrate your thoughts, intelligence, emotions and spirit and align them towards the concept.

Nithya Spiritual Healers' Initiation

Nithya Spiritual Healers' Initiation is directly related to enlightenment. Healing others is only a side-effect or a byproduct of the process. The main effect is that when you serve as a healer, you actually get in touch with the deepest level of your being.

For example, in the Life Bliss Program Level 1 - Ananda Spurana Program, you get a glimpse of blissful living. In the Life Bliss Program Level 2 - Nithyananda Spurana Program, you get a glimpse of energy or consciousness. In Nithya Spiritual Healing, as a healer, you get into a permanently blissful state. Because once you are initiated, you continuously feel the cosmic energy flowing in you. You are continuously in touch with your being. Healing is conscious, concentrated love. It is that energy which automatically heals others.

Imagine that you are an ant on a huge iceberg trying to bore your way to the water beneath. How many thousands of lifetimes will it require? You can't even imagine it happening!

But a master who is already in the water, can simply drill a hole through the ice from the water beneath and just suck you in! You can also enter the water and enjoy it! This is exactly what happens during the Nithya Spiritual Healers' Initiation.

In Nithya Spiritual Healers' Initiation, the master opens the door to the energy of the Ananda Gandha chakra.

Ananda Gandha Chakra

Ananda Gandha chakra is an energy center in us wherein our seven chakras, our seven energy bodies, and our five koshas all collapse. It is considered the plane where matter and energy meet. It is like the plane where the iceberg and water beneath it meet. It is the energy space where enlightened masters live. It is the source of all our energy, and the direct connection to the universal cosmic energy. The Ananda Gandha does not exist in the physical body, it has a metaphysical significance.

When a person with enlightened consciousness initiates a healer, he opens the door to the Ananda Gandha chakra, so there is access to the divine energy every single moment. When you are in Ananda Gandha, you are enlightened because you are one with the cosmic energy.

The master lives in Ananda Gandha. A connection to the same energy source is established when we are in Ananda Gandha. That is why the healing energy is able to give new life, new energy and heal disease.

As I mentioned, the point where all the seven chakras collapse is the Ananda Gandha chakra. The path to the Ananda Gandha chakra is between anahata and manipuraka chakras, that is, between the heart and navel areas. The Ananda Gandha chakra itself does not lie there, only the

path to it is there. During Nithya Spiritual Healing, you consciously go into Ananda Gandha. All other chakras are gross and can be opened by meditation. But this Ananda Gandha chakra is such that only an enlightened master can open it.

We have seven energy bodies, namely the outer physical body, the next inner body called the pranic body, followed by the mental, etheric, causal, cosmic and nirvanic bodies. The Ananda Gandha chakra is located in the innermost or seventh energy body, the nirvanic body. Once this chakra is opened, once it is awakened, the energy starts flowing in you continuously.

There are five koshas or energy sheaths that are part of our energy system. They are the matter sheath (annamaya kosha), the air sheath (pranamaya kosha), the mind sheath (manomaya kosha), the intellect sheath (vijnanamaya kosha) and finally, the bliss sheath (anandamaya kosha). Where the bliss sheath touches the Self, there lies the Ananda Gandha chakra.

Being in Ananda Gandha is being in the 'Zero TPS (Thoughts Per Second) state'. This is what I call the samadhi state, nirvana, nithyananda state or enlightenment.

Ananda Gandha chakra for the whole world actually lies in a single point! The point where the very idea of length, breadth and height disappears is the Ananda Gandha chakra!

The point where the concept of time collapses is the Ananda Gandha chakra.

The point where the idea of gravity disappears is the Ananda Gandha chakra.

All these explanations for the Ananda Gandha chakra can be understood when you have even one glimpse of Consciousness.

Some benefits of Ananda Gandha meditation

When you do the Ananda Gandha meditation every day, continuously, nothing from the world outside can shake you inside. Even if everything around you is failing, you will be stable and strong. You will soon reach a state where this meditation becomes your natural state of being. You will eternally be in Ananda Gandha!

This meditation gives you:

Sat: Clarity in everything

You will have clarity because you will be able to see things objectively without being driven by greed and fear.

Chit: Consciousness

You will have enthusiasm for everything you do. Every pore, every cell will radiate energy and enthusiasm. You will simply execute decisions one after another without feeling tired, and more importantly, with the same enthusiasm and intelligence.

Ananda: Bliss for no reason

You will remain happy irrespective of whatever happens in the outer world.

Being in Ananda Gandha continuously, you will not only have good physical and mental health but also the clarity to handle anything that happens in the outer world.

For example, if you are angry with someone, after shouting at him, you normally feel the fire of anger burning you as much as it burnt him. You are disturbed for the same half hour that he is disturbed. But if you are in Ananda Gandha, you will have the clarity and awareness to use the anger only to the extent that it is needed. You will not overuse it. Because you have not overused it, it will not burn inside you or cause guilt within you. You will be completely unaffected by it. The person receiving your anger will receive only as much as he needs to receive, so he will not be unduly disturbed.

For example, when you need to give someone only ten dollars for a job that they have done, will you give them twenty dollars for it? No! You will never overpay, am I right? Then, when you need to show only a certain amount of anger to someone, why should you show more than that? Show only what is needed! Then, there will be no suffering for him or for you. The clarity to do this is what being in Ananda Gandhagives.

Nithya Spiritual Healing is a two-in-one technique. As the healer, you will feel bliss and the person receiving the healing will get healed. That is why this is the ultimate technique.

LIVING ENLIGHTENMENT

Ananda Darshan

(Ananda darshan is the time when you are in the presence of the master's surging energy. You go near him and he touches you on your ajna chakra, thus transmitting the energy and experience of enlightenment to you.)

Darshan means 'to see something divine'. Ananda darshan means 'blissfully seeing'. When the Existential energy flowers into a form that your eyes can see and consciousness can perceive, and when it causes a transformation in you, it is called ananda darshan! The form that you see is the form of the enlightened master who happens from time to time on planet earth.

Some people ask, 'Is there something called Existential energy?' Yes there is, but it is beyond our intellect. When we reach the peak of our intellect, we will understand there is something beyond, which cannot be perceived with our intellect. Many scientists who reached the peak of their intellect saw the next step as infinite Existential energy that lay beyond them. With sensitivity, one can feel the presence of this energy.

There is always a group of people who say that the entire universe is nothing but a divine play of Existential energy. But there is another group who say that the entire universe is an accident and there is no energy or intelligence behind it. The second group can very conveniently exploit their philosophy to manufacture 'Is there something called Existential energy?' Yes there is, but it is beyond our intellect.

any number of weapons and cause destruction in the world. They do not develop any sensitivity towards anything in the universe because of this very idea that the universe and its happenings are an accident. They continue to exist and perceive at the gross level.

If you belong to the first group, you automatically enter into a subtle level and develop a deep respect for everything in this universe, every stone, tree, and plant. A deep devotion surges within you. Your very life automatically moves with a beautiful flow, like a surfer riding the rising wave of Existence.

It is only because man got the clarity that a profound and deep intelligence is running the whole show that he was able to create a way of life that allows him to merge beautifully and sweetly with the play of Existence.

The whole of Existence is a living being that responds to your every word, feeling, and prayer. Each moment it responds with responsibility to your very consciousness. In order to respond to you in a way that you can hear, see, and understand, it takes the form of enlightened masters from time

A master's darshan is like a huge wave rising in the ocean of Existence.

to time. The seeking and praying of millions of people

around the world creates a tremendous pull that causes enlightened masters to appear on planet earth, like how a low-pressure area or a depression naturally creates a storm.

A master's darshan is like a huge wave rising in the ocean of Existence. The wave never gets disconnected from the ocean, but at the same time expresses itself as tremendous dynamic energy! Understand: a river is also connected to the ocean, but it does not have the dynamic energy of the wave. It just flows passively, that's all. But Ananda Darshan is the dynamic wave that rises in the blissful ocean of Existence. It creates a churning that can completely transform you.

Now imagine a sand particle inside the wave. Can it have any impurity in it? No! It will be completely pure because it is inside the energy of the dynamic wave. In the same way, when you come for darshan, you will be completely cleansed inside out by the dynamic energy that is expressed. During darshan, you are within the very source of the Existential energy. In the presence of the sun, the lotus blooms. In the same way, in the presence of the master, your consciousness flowers.

All you need to do is co-operate. Actually, even if you don't co-operate, the energy will penetrate you. It is like this: whether the shell in the wave co-operates or not, the wave takes it along. In the same way, whether you co-operate or not, the energy will envelop you and do what is needed. But the shell that co-operates with the wave playfully dances along with the blissful movements of the wave. It gets purified and finally merges with it! On the other hand, the shell that tells the wave, 'I can't trust you so easily', and collects a few pebbles and builds a wall around itself for protection, suffers resistance. But the sheer compassion of the energy wave ultimately pulls it along into bliss.

For the person who surrenders joyfully to the wave, his very life becomes ananda darshan, not just a moment of darshan. Understand: during any moment that your consciousness is turned towards the blissful expression of Existence that is the master, ananda darshan happens for you! You don't even need to be physically near the master. If you continuously rest your consciousness on that energy expression, your very life becomes ananda darshan. On the other hand the person who resists, misses the celebration of merging with the energy, but also merges ultimately.

During darshan, tremendous energy radiates from the master. How do you receive this overflowing energy? Just come like a small child, with intense enthusiasm, with a deep prayerful mood, with a melting heart, that is enough. Society has destroyed the power of prayer. Prayer has the power to completely transform you into what you want to become.

What is prayer? When you want to achieve something, you focus your intention and intensity on it with your will. This is called 'your vow'. Soon you realize, however, that to fulfill it, you need the help of some higher energy as well. When this understanding happens, your vow becomes a prayer! You start praying to the energy. 'I can do it' is a vow, 'I need the grace of the energy that is beyond me' is prayer. So come with a deep prayerful mood.

When you open up your feelings in the presence of an enlightened master, it is like putting a slide in front of a projector. What is on the slide gets projected on the screen as reality. In the same way, your desires that need to be fulfilled for your own good and the good of others will materialize. The desires that don't need to be fulfilled will get burnt away along with the unfulfilled feeling that created them. Either the desire is fulfilled or your mind forgets about the desire. Either the seed of the desire sprouts or it is burnt away. Both ways you experience fulfillment.

You carry many desires that need not be fulfilled. The energy of the master works as sheer intelligence to handle this.

A small story:

Once, a tired traveler decided to rest under a tree. The tree happened to be a wish fulfilling tree. While he was resting, he had a passing thought, 'How nice it would be if I got some good food now!' The moment the thought came, a plate of delicious food appeared in front of him. He was delighted and ate to his heart's content.

After the satisfying meal, he thought, 'It would be good if I could get a comfortable bed to lie on.' No sooner did the thought come than a luxurious king-size bed appeared in front of him. He was amazed! He lay down on the bed.

As his head touched the pillow, he thought it would be really good if somebody fanned him while he slept. In an instant, a young girl appeared with a fan in her hand and started fanning him.

Suddenly, a thought came to the man, 'I am in the middle of a forest! What if a tiger suddenly appears?' The moment the thought came, a tiger appeared in front of him, pounced on him and ate him up!

Before fulfilling your desires, you need to bring clarity to them. When you verbalize your desires in front of the master, they will automatically acquire clarity. That is The whole scene of the darshan becomes a deep imprint in your consciousness.

why during the program Kalpataru* , I ask you to verbalize your

desires to me. As you verbalize, you yourself will know which desires really need to be fulfilled and which need not be fulfilled. Such is the intelligence of the expressed energy.

The kalpataru darshan* sows within you the seeds of:

Shakti - Energy to change the things that need to change,

Buddhi - Intelligence to accept the things that cannot change,

Yukti - Understanding that whatever may change, Existence itself is an eternally

changing dream!

Mukti - Liberation to experience the above three and live blissfully!

Put your energy into changing whatever you can, just simple things that you can change. Don't think, 'Oh, I can change two habits, what about the other ten?' Just change what you can change. Then accept what you can't change. When you have expressed your energy, intelligence will start flowering.

Intelligence is accepting what you cannot change. But until you express the energy to change whatever you can, you won't be able to have the intelligence to accept what you can't change. First try changing what you can. Then you will see a tremendous ability to accept whatever you can't change.

The third seed is clarity. However much you change things, whatever you may change, still the whole world itself is a changing reality, a changing dream. It is a dream that is continuously changing for no reason. It is causeless for no reason. Understand that it is causeless. Because it is causeless, you can call it either a causeless auspicious energy or a causeless chaos. Anybody who thinks this is a causeless auspicious energy is a theist, a seeker. Anybody who thinks it is a causeless chaos is a materialist.

The whole of Existence can appear as either a miracle or a curse. If you think it is causeless auspiciousness, it is a miracle, a continuous miracle. Otherwise, it is a curse.

During darshan, many people have visions, healing experiences, intense spiritual experiences, and the direct experience of causeless bliss. Not only that, the energy

wave that rises also causes many unconscious fears, guilt, and desires to surface. Some people just go into intense silence. Others feel overwhelmed with tears. You may not even know the reasons for all these because they come from deep unconscious layers that erupt by the energy of the wave. Darshan time is a rare opportunity to liberate yourself from these deeply engraved memories. These emotions can be simply wiped out at the root level by the overflowing energy.

During darshan time, your being comes alive and celebrates with the energy wave of Existence. The mind disappears for some time. The whole scene of the darshan becomes a deep imprint in your consciousness.

I would like to say just one thing. The energy of Existence is like your father's wealth. Don't miss enjoying it! Just say 'YES' to Existence and enter into it like a child.

To draw money, even from your own bank account, you need to sign a check. In the same way, to receive the energy of Existence, you need to be open. That's all.

Remember, only the oyster that opened and caught a drop of rainwater made the pearl! When you are open to the master, just one word from him is enough. It is like rainwater that enters an oyster to become a pearl.

For the master's presence to work on you, allow whatever happens to happen. Don't be tense, irritated, or resisting. Don't expect anything. Whatever happens, allow it to happen. Just be like the surfer who dances on the energy wave, enjoying its bliss!

Healing Experiences

Healing

• 1. I was struck with Hepatitis B and suffering from cirrhosis, a chronic liver disease generally considered irreversible. All the hospitals had given up hope and I had been living on liquid diet for six years and knew death was around the corner. On my friend's suggestion, I went to Nithyananda who was then at Erode in Tamilnadu, South India, healing the people who sought him out. He gave me a little holy ash and said to mix it into everything that I ate and drank for the next three days. I followed his instruction and on the third day itself I felt my stomach beginning to feel fine - after six long years! Immediately, as instructed by him, I even ate a full spicy meal for the first time in six years. Since then I have been leading a healthy and blissful life, ever ready to serve my divine Master!

• Sri Nithya Sadananda, Senior Swami of the Nithyananda Order ([email protected])

• 2. I had been diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), which caused severe hormonal issues. It was detected through an ultrasound which showed that my ovaries were covered by the growth of large cysts. I attended one of Nithyananda's meditation programs during which he said I would be healed, without even my telling him about my problem!

About a month later, I realized I had lost thirty pounds, which I had battled with for a long time having been close to two hundred pounds and not being able to lose weight even through diet and exercise. That is when I realized how emotionally related my weight had been! I understood how any addiction is a call for fulfillment that we try to fill externally but can never fulfill. About a year later, when I went in for an ultrasound checkup, the doctors were shocked to discover that the cysts were completely gone!

• Roshini Nambiar, Meditation Teacher, Oklahama, USA ([email protected])

• 3. When my uncle and aunt were visiting us in Singapore, they made a short trip to Tioman islands in Malaysia. When they returned home, both of them were in really bad shape. Apparently, they had a bad experience with the sea, which almost drowned them while snorkeling. They had swallowed huge amounts of sea water as well. They were in a state of complete shock even after returning. My uncle was in shivering fits and was running high temperature.

I just asked him to lie down and relax and started giving him Nithya Spiritual Healing. After about ten minutes he drifted off into deep sleep. The next morning when he woke up, he was perfectly normal as though nothing at all had happened!

• Sri Nithyananda Arpana, Nithya Spiritual Healer, Malaysia ([email protected])

• 4. One of my American friends was telling me that she was going through chronic anxiety and suffering frequently from 'anxiety attacks'. She wondered if Nithya Spiritual Healing would work on mental problems as well. I explained to her how the healing energy is pure intelligence and it works at all levels. I then gave her healing for about fifteen minutes. She called me the next day saying she felt such a deep sense of peace and relaxation during and after the healing and that she slept exceptionally well that night after four long years, when a major incident in her life had become the source of all her anxiety.

• Premeshwari, Nithya Spiritual Healer, Michigan, USA ([email protected])

• 5. I am a practicing gynecologist. Many of my patients have had miraculous experiences with the touch of Paramahamsa Nithyananda. Recently I had a case of a woman who had been suffering from tuberculosis. Her uterus lining had become very thin and the endometrium was badly affected. We tried various methods of treatment but none worked. We were thinking of the option of surrogate mother when I suggested to her to take healing from Paramahamsa. She went for healing to Paramahamsa who blessed her with a divine child. It is a real medical miracle that she was able to conceive in the first place and also have a normal delivery!

• Dr. Nirmala, gynecologist, Advanced Fertility Center, Bangalore ([email protected])

Meditation programs

• 1. I was rated a star in my MNC corporate career. I ran companies and conglomerates, built billion dollar entities and helped start up many dreams. But I was never fulfilled. After Paramahamsa happened in my life, I have learnt how to be successful in the outer world while being equally successful in the inner world!

• Ram S Ram, Business Mentor, Singapore ([email protected])

• 2. Five years ago I was the Vice President of Global Supply Chain at a Fortune 500 company. I was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 32. There is a very long history of diabetes in the maternal and paternal sides of my family. When I met Paramahamsa, on one occasion I told him about the problem. Almost four and half years have passed since I told him and till date, my blood sugar levels have been well within normal range with no diet restrictions or symptoms of the disease. I attended an advanced meditation program with Paramahamsa. One of the techniques in that was to verbalize what stopped us from living in bliss all the time. Each of us verbalized where we felt we were stuck. The moment we verbalized this, whatever that was holding us back vanished. All I can say is, there was some intense alchemy that went on in the non-physical plane. It was as if Paramahamsa set up a flame and whatever we verbalized was burnt away from our system once and for all. Now I feel there are no emotional ups or downs in me and I am able to work with utmost intensity and bliss in all fields of endeavor. All I can say is he showered his love and compassion on us and we came out as new beings.

-Sri Nithya Sachitananda, International Coordinator and Senior Swami of Nithyananda Order, Los Angeles, USA ([email protected])

• 3. Effortless work is something I never thought possible. I learnt through Paramahamsa's meditation programs how to enjoy work and automatically, I started giving results effortlessly, with great creativity and work satisfaction as well.

• Apurvi Sheth, Marketing Director, Singapore ([email protected])

• 4. Besides an amazing rise in my energy levels, my business took a quantum jump ever since Nithyananda touched me the first time. My intelligence in taking business decisions entered a different dimension. Also, my relationships have greatly matured at home and outside. My child is in the Nithyananda Gurukul in the Bangalore ashram and I can really see her blossoming into a confident, intelligent and fulfilled person.

About Paramahamsa Nithyananda

Paramahamsa Nithyananda is a living enlightened Master of the 21st century.

He took birth in Tiruvannamalai, a spiritual nerve center in South India. Since a very young age, Nithyananda spent days and nights in meditation in the divine aura of Arunachala. His intense quest for deeper Truths of life led him on his spiritual journey which covered the length and breadth of India, several thousand miles of which he covered on foot. Visiting venerated shrines, meeting highly evolved yogis and rishis, and practicing intense meditations, he studied Yoga, Tantra, and other Eastern metaphysical sciences. He went through several profoundly impacting spiritual experiences, culminating in his realization of the Ultimate at a young age.

Since then, Nithyananda has been sharing his experience with millions of people worldwide through the activities of Nithyananda Mission which conducts insightful and inspiring meditation programs and a wide spectrum of social services, thus providing life solutions at the physical, mental and spiritual levels.
