Today is the tenth anniversary of our spiritual mission. It is said that the tenth year gives rebirth to the sangha, the spiritual community. I think that in this tenth year of our spiritual mission, we are really reborn!

Today's message, as you all know, is going to be the message for the whole year. I know all of you are waiting for the mahavakya, the core message for this year! This year's mahavakya, the core message with which we will all work, is **'**Enriching with Enlightenment'.

Enriching with enlightenment has many layers of meaning. Enriching yourself with enlightenment, enriching others with enlightenment and enriching the whole world with enlightenment. Go on, enrich everybody with enlightenment. Enrich yourself continuously with enlightenment!

Bring integrity into the words which you utter to others and to yourself. Bring authenticity in the way you hold yourself for yourself, and the way you hold yourself for others to experience you. Bring responsibility in your inner space for every happening, for everything. Go on enriching others, go on enriching everyone.

Drop the past records. The past track never gives you the confidence, the possibility. Unless you see the possibility, life does not flow in you! Excitement does not happen in you. If you are seeing the past records, there will be a deep sorrow. The past records always bring deep sorrow, because by nature, past records are death. Possibility, by nature, is Life! Forget about the past records. Look at the possibility. Whoever is interested in life should look at the possibilities, not the past record. The past record is neither as bad as you remember, nor worthy of remembrance, of being remembered.

Understand, it is neither as bad as you remember, nor is it worthy of being remembered. The past records never let you remember or believe the possibility. Possibility is life. Life is possibility, not past record.

When you plan for the unimaginable, when your nervous system is loaded with things that you are not able to even comprehend, the excitement that oozes in your nervous system is bliss! Understand, bliss does not come to lazy bums! Bliss does not happen to people caught in the past records. Past record is death, possibility is life.

When you plan for the unimaginable, the excitement that oozes in your nervous system is bliss.

O my devotees, disciples and humanity! I give the clarion call this day look only at the possibility, not at the past records! As I said, it is neither as bad as you remember, nor worthy of being remembered. Possibility is life. In every zone, when you look at the possibility, life happens to you. Bring tremendous integrity in every word you utter. Bring authenticity in the way you hold yourself for yourself and for others.

Please understand, these four words are the keys to enrich with enlightenment. First word – Integrity; second word– Authenticity; third word – Responsibility; fourth word – Enriching.

Let me first define integrity. Integrity is you fulfilling the words and thoughts you give to yourself and to others, and experiencing a state of completion with yourself and with life.

Integrity means honoring the words you utter to others and to yourself. Stand by your word. When your life stands by the words you utter, the words you utter become reality. It is a method for ultimately achieving vak-siddhi, making whatever you utter as reality.

Understand, when you have integrity, if you give a word, you will give your life to fulfill it! When you make that decision, the cosmos fulfills any word you give. The cosmos comes to your rescue. Understand, when you have integrity, if you give a word and you are ready to give your life to fulfill it, the cosmos comes to fulfill your word. This happens due to the integrity in the words you give to others and the words you give to yourself.

The next is authenticity. Authenticity is you being established in the peak of your capability, and responding to life from who you perceive yourself to be for yourself, who you project yourself to be for others, and what others expect you to be for them.

Bring authenticity in the way you hold yourself for yourself, the way you hold yourself for others, and the way you hold yourself for others to perceive you. Enrich yourself with authenticity.

Keeping Mahakala as witness, with integrity and authenticity I declare: I happened, created and am running this sangha with integrity and authenticity. There are some things which you don't understand about me. I am very clear. I declare this with the integrity and authenticity with which I and the sangha are functioning.

Every devotee, every disciple, every satsangi, every samaji, every sannyasi should bring every human being into integrity and authenticity, in their life, in their words, in everything. Wash your whole life with integrity and authenticity. Do an acid wash with integrity and authenticity.

The third word is responsibility. Responsibility is living and responding to life from the truth, that you are the source of and therefore responsible for, all happenings in and around you.

Responsibility means feeling responsible for everything that is happening! Understand, whenever I feel responsible for everything that is happening, all the problems get dissolved. They just disappear. Every time a problem is brought to me, when I take the responsibility, I feel empowered.

Responsibility means feeling responsible for everything that is happening.

'I am responsible for everything happening in and around me.' It is a very powerful strategy for victory and success. This is the strategy.

Responsibility empowers you, however complicated the enemy may be*. All of you know the story of Hiranyakashipu, the demon who was defeated by his own child Prahalada? This* guy asks Lord Brahma for a boon, that he should not be killed, either by man or by an animal, either indoors or outdoors. What a complicated boon! But Lord Vishnu took the responsibility in the form of Lord Narasimha, and won the game!

Prahalada, the child-hero, excels as the example for the tattva of integrity. In spite of being born to the arrogant demon-king Hiranyakashipu, Prahalada remained a great devotee of the god Vishnu.

In order to maintain his power, Hiranyakashipu did some penance and obtained a boon from Bramha, which would prevent him from being destroyed by any being living in this planet earth. With this power, he started behaving arrogantly and kept harming the people who were earnest in connecting to the higher truths.

Hiranyakashipu was angered by Prahalada's devotion to Vishnu, as he felt that no one other than himself should be worshipped by his subjects. One day, when Prahalada was praying to Vishnu, Hiranyakashipu demanded, 'You say your Vishnu is everywhere? Come on, show me your Vishnu now! Where is he? Is he in these pillars?' And Hiranyakashipu pointed to the pillars in the hall. 'Yes, he is in this pillar', said Prahalada simply, pointing to one of the pillars in front of him. 'Then let me find him!' roared Hiranyakashipu, and hit the pillar forcefully with his mace.

To the utter amazement of everyone, Vishnu emerged from the pillar in the form of a ferocious lion-man (Narasimha). It was not a living being from planet earth! Narasimha destroyed Hiranyakashipu and blessed Prahalada with enlightenment.

Understand, in this story, when Hiranyakashipu was pointing towards the pillars, Vishnu was resting in Vaikunta. But the moment Prahalada's hand started moving, Vishnu started running towards earth. His consort Lakshmi asked, 'What happened, what happened?' 'My devotee is moving his finger; wherever he indicates, I have to enter into that pillar!' said Vishnu.

The integrity and authenticity of Prahalada was such that wherever the hand of the innocent child stops, Narasimha has to appear in that pillar. And the small kid is looking at which pillar is nice and choosing!

When you have the integrity and authenticity of Prahalada, Narasimha lands for you; he appears wherever you ask, even in stone. When you don't have authenticity and integrity, even if God comes, you will throw stones on him! With integrity and authenticity, you stone Him unto eternity. Without integrity and authenticity, you stone him unto death. Stoning Him to death and stoning Him to eternity! I am coining a new word - stoning to eternity. It means carving his deity out of stone!

Responsibility empowers you, however complicated the enemy may be.

When you have integrity and authenticity, even a stone becomes God; God appears even from stone for you.

When you have the integrity and authenticity of Prahalada, when you have integrity and authenticity, when you give your life to fulfill your words, cosmos intervenes and fulfills your words.

Ten years before, on this very land, by the grace of Mahakala, I made this very sankalpa, and I make this very sankalpa again: I will be available here continuously to the whole humanity, enriching with enlightenment.

Responsibility empowers you. I tell you, an important secret to be responsible again and again without becoming powerless: never give up on people. I never give up on people. Even when they give up on me, I don't give up on them. I continue to work on them. Understand; take this as an important key. Don't give up on people. This is the maths of life.

The number of people you have given up on is the minus sign in your life. The number of people you still don't give up on is the plus sign in your life. Make the calculation; make the balance-sheet of your life. This will prove if your life is in profit or loss. This will prove whether you are running in success or failure. Whether you are running in failure or success is not decided by the incident; it is decided by your spirit.

I tell you, nothing has been lost if you have not lost your inspiration. I was talking to some of my ashramites. One ashramite was asking me, 'Swamiji, I think we lost so many valuable years in the religious attack which happened on us.' I told him, 'No. Nothing, nothing has been lost as long as you don't lose your inspiration. Nothing is lost. What are a few years? Time is eternity. I am going to be available here continuously with the body, and even after leaving the body. This is our life!'

If the inspiration is not lost, nothing is lost. If the inspiration is lost, everything is lost. Understand, by the divine grace of Maha Kalabhairava, Mahadeva, we have not lost inspiration. So nothing, nothing, is lost. Inspiration is life. Don't give up on people. This is the first step to feel responsibility. Be empowered and responsible.

The fourth spiritual truth is enriching. Let me define Enriching. Enriching is you taking responsibility with integrity and authenticity that you are committed to continuously enriching, which is expanding yourself and Life in and around you.

Life happens to you, outside you. Please understand, life happens to you with others. When there are students, you are a teacher. When there are kids, you are a mother. When there are brothers, you are a brother. When there is a father, you are a son. When there is an employee, you are a boss. When there is a boss, you are an employee. Life happens to you with others, with people who are outside you. Enrich them. Only by enriching them does your life gets enriched. Don't be selfish. Your life does not happen just inside you.

When I was young, I used to wonder why Swami Vivekananda gave this ideal for his sangha

When you have integrity and authenticity, when you give your life to fulfill your words, cosmos intervenes and fulfills your words.

(spiritual community): 'ātmano mokṣārtham jagat hitāya cha - for one's one enlightenment, and the well-being of the world.' This is the ideal he gave for his sangha, the sangha he created for enlightenment and for the good of the world. I was wondering why he gave such an idea, 'for the well-being of the world'. When I became mature enough to understand Vivekananda, I realized that life happens to you outside yourself, with others.

If you are just sitting inside the dark forest and you don't see any human being, not even an animal, then atma mokshartha is enough. Working on yourself and your enlightenment is enough; enriching yourself with enlightenment is enough. Even when you are imagining others, you are interacting with others. If you don't even remember others, enriching yourself with enlightenment is enough. But that is not the way life is happening with you.

Let us see experientially, how life happens to you. We have to start from where we are standing, the experience of life happening to you through others. Your employees decide whether you are a good boss or not; your children decide whether you are good father or not; your father decides whether you are a good son or not; your brothers decide whether you are good sibling or not; your teacher decides whether you are a good student or not; your student decides whether you are good teacher or not; your patient decides whether you are good doctor or not and your doctor decides whether you are good patient or not! Life is happening to you from outside, from others.

Unless you enrich others with enlightenment, your life is not going to be completely enriched with enlightenment. Decide to enrich your boss with enlightenment; you will have completion in your relationship with your boss. You will be a complete employee. Decide to enrich your employees with enlightenment; you will be an enlightened CEO. You will be a complete boss. Fulfill in that dimension. Decide to enrich your spouse with enlightenment.

Now you need to remember, don't give up on people. I tell you, your spouse can never be worse than the people who I am facing! But I never give up on people.

If you have to learn just one thing from me, learn this one thing. I never give up on people. I don't stop training. When they are in training, I have the passion that they have to transform N O W. And I have the patience to wait even for years, with the same passion, if they have not transformed. The burning passion of the sun, and the cooling patience of the moon!

Just now, there was an incident that happened. The brahmachari who was responsible for the garlands, made a small mistake in arranging them. When I asked him about it, my words were so passionate; he has to transform now! But do you know, I am asking him the same questions with the same passion for the last ten years! And he has still not transformed. I still have the same passion to ask him the same question for ten years, for the same mistake!

I don't give up on people. Don't give up on people.

Life is happening to you from outside, from others.

People are life. People around you are life happening to you. If you give up on them, you are giving up on life. Whenever you give up on people, you commit partial suicide. Giving up on people is partial suicide!

Not giving up on people is the victory of war. Victory in war, victory in life, is not decided by one incident. It is decided by the ability to not give up on people. There are people who have happened in your life in the form of family members, team members, customers, clients, suppliers; in different ways. When people happen in your life, don't give up on them, enrich them with enlightenment, with integrity and authenticity.

Whenever you don't give up on people, when you decide not to give up on people, you are empowered. You are empowered! When I train one of my disciples or question him about a mistake he made, I trust that he will transform by the next time. But I don't expect that he will transform by the next time. Understand, I trust that he will transform by the next time, but I don't expect that he should be transformed by the next time. If he fulfills my trust, he blesses me! Don't give up on people. That is life! That is life!

Life is happening to you through others, through people. When you give up on people, you give up on life, which is suicide.

The brahmachari who messed up the flower garlands this morning, he has been with me for ten years! Based on my past record of him, I didn't think, 'Oh, for ten years he has not transformed; is he going to transform now?' Then I would give up on him! But if I say, 'Alright, you don't do this work, I will find somebody else,' again I give up on him. No. Neither keeping quiet, nor discarding, is what is called 'not giving up on people'!

The damaru (drum) of Shiva is the symbol of not giving up on people. The fire is integrity and authenticity, the trishul (trident) is enriching. Don't give up on people. We have not lost anything because we have not lost our inspiration. Listening, listening, listening, listening and not giving up on people!

People ask me sometimes, "You say that the damaru is not giving up on people, fire is integrity and authenticity and the trishul is power. Then, what does Shiva have to show responsibility?

I tell you, his very life is responsibility! By his very presence, he makes a statement on responsibility. He is the aadhara. He takes responsibility for Existence, for everything he has - holding the river Ganga to save the planet earth; drinking the poison to save the universe*. Neelakantha* is responsibility, Gangadhara is responsibility. Keeping the snakes with himself and getting people out problems all this is responsibility. Everything of Shiva is responsibility. He does not give up even on bhootas, pretas and ganas who are not part of the society. Everything around him shows his responsibility!

Understand, all of you think for a moment with integrity and authenticity, how quickly you give up on people! If I would have given up on humanity that quickly, do you think you would have been here? When I came to this forest as a youth and

Don't give up on people. People around you is life happening to you. If you give up on people, you give up on life.

declared, 'I stand with integrity and authenticity to enrich the world with enlightenment,' even the few people who were standing around me, were smiling inside their heart - what does he mean! Some stood with devotion, some with a lot of fear, some with apprehension, some with a mocking smile, some thinking that I may be loosu, crazy! Only the few, trees, plants and nature stood with me, saying, 'Tathasthu', so be it! And we did it! We have done it. We are doing it. We will do it!

O humanity, listen! Don't give up on people. This is one tattva, one truth that again and again strengthens my shoulders. Don't give up on people. Go on enriching, enriching and enriching!

In the Inner-Awakening program, a person was asking me a question. She herself had experienced levitation and kundalini awakening. But she was not able to advise her daughter to attend the program, because her daughter did not believe in mysticism.

I said, 'What do you mean? Tell her that you are her mother, you are not mad to go through this experience! Tell me, are you authentic in your kundalini awakening? Do you really jump by kundalini awakening, or are you just jumping inauthentically?'

'No,' she said, 'I am authentic in everything that is happening.' I told her, 'Then go and show it to your daughter. Tell her that you are an authentic being, you are her mother who loves her with all the authenticity and you want her to test this.' Only then did she realize that this is right. I said, 'Don't give up on people based on the past record. Earlier she may not have listened to you, because you yourself may not have been integrated and authentic. Now, bring that integrity and authenticity. And don't give up on people.'

Enrich people, enrich people and enrich people. If you give up on people, you will give up on yourself. You will lose your confidence. You will give up on yourself ! Don't give up on people. Don't give up on others. Not giving up on people is life! That is the mathematics of your life. The number of people you have given up on is your loss, and the number of people you have not given up on, is your gain. This is the profit and loss account statement of life. Find out which list you yourself are in! Find out whether you yourself are in the list of people you have given up on, or you still have not given up on you! Find that out - that is a very important thing.

Many times you give up on you. When you stop trying to wake up for yoga, you are giving up on you. When you stop practicing integrity and authenticity without compromise, you give up on you. When you start giving up on people, you give up on you. Find out whether you have given up or not. Don't give up on you. That is the first step you need to do today. Don't give up on you.

Decide! 'With integrity and authenticity, I decide that I will not give up on me. I will not give up on me, based on my past track record, my past records. I will work on the possibility.'

Not giving up on people, is not just about not giving up on your family! It includes people in your community, locality, society, state, country

When you give up on people, you give up on you. Don't give up on people, go on enriching, enriching and enriching people.

and in your universe. Don't give up on people. When you don't give up on people, when you decide not to give up on people, you feel empowered in the shoulder. Your shoulders feel the strength. Whenever your shoulders feel tired, whenever you feel tired, remember - 'I am not going to give up on people!'

I am a person who has no individual family. But thousands see me as their family member! Even on Facebook, I get so many family requests! I am literally living with a cosmic family. Rahu, Ketu, Shani, Shiva, Durga, Kali, Subramanya, Shukra, Guru, Chandra - these are my family members. I literally live with a cosmic family. I don't give up on anybody, including Shani!

I am not going to give up on people. I wanted all of you to understand, never to give up on people. The important message on our tenth anniversary, on the completion of one decade, on the completion of ten years of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM sangha, is this: don't give up on people. Don't give up on people!

I tell my ashramites, 'If you can't teach a worker in your department on the science of living enlightenment, if you can't teach him integrity and authenticity, whom are you going to teach? If he is alive, he can be enriched. Don't give up.'

Carry this one message - Don't give up on people. That is the message for this whole year. That is a practical instruction on how to enrich with enlightenment. Don't give up on yourself and don't give up on others. Don't give up on people. Enrich with enlightenment.

Don't give up on people. Enriching with enlightenment means, enriching yourself with these four great truths of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. It means not giving up on people. It means enriching others with these four great truths of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, by not giving up on them. Enrich them so that they also enrich others. Let the whole universe be enriched with enlightenment!

I bless you all to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

Enriching with enlightenment means, enriching yourself with these four great truths of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. It means not giving up on people.

Listen!

Complete with all the incompletions. Completing with all incompletions is the basic step in life. Whatever hurt you are carrying , reach out to the other person and complete.

From today, I will spend at least one more month making all of you digest the message for this year – integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, and help you all implement it, supporting you all to imbibe it, live it and vibrate with it, making it as a part of your bone marrow!

Today's subject is imbibing these great truths of enriching with enlightenment. The first thing for enriching with enlightenment - the foundation for this whole thing is poornatva - completion of all the patterns you carry.

What is integrity? Integrity is honoring the commitment you have given to yourself and others and experiencing a state of completion. Integrity is life. It is life breath. Live with integrity! Unless you live with integrity, you are not a being.

What is a pattern? It is an action that is unfulfilled as per your fantasy, either because of an outside hindrance or an inside hindrance, and is in incompletion. Please understand: if your expectations are not met by yourself or by others, it remains as an incompletion. For example, you always wanted to wake up early in the morning and practice yoga, but you never succeeded in that, so it remains as an incompletion. You always wanted your father to be very loving and caring, and he never honored your expectations; that remains as an incompletion.

Complete with all the incompletions. Please understand, completing with all incompletions is the basic step in life. Whatever hurt you are carrying, reach out to the other person and complete. If you are not able to reach out to that person, at least sit in front of the mirror, invoke that person and complete. Unless poornatva happens, nothing, nothing can be done. Life does not start!

In the same way, if you have certain fantasies about you within you, ideas about you, you either have to fulfill them or drop them. If you can afford to fulfill them with your adopted life style, fulfill them. If you cannot fulfill them authentically with your adopted lifestyle, then drop them.

Authentically listen! Please understand, authentically listen to the cries of your heart. Your heart continues to cry for your attention. Authentically listen to it. Listening does not mean you will just do whatever your heart says. No! Even if you are just ready to lend your ears, after talking, your heart says, 'It's ok. You have heard me. That itself is enough!' Many times, even in your family or in your team, people don't expect you to solve their problem. They just want you to listen to their problems. Once you listen, even if you don't solve it, it is OK.

The first thing, understand, is to complete with yourself and complete with others. Completion has to be taken like a spiritual practice for at least one year! For one year, continuously dig out with all who you carry incompletions. If you are carrying an incompletion with someone whom you cannot contact, sit with their photograph. Every photograph listens to you and responds to you. It is an independent intelligence!

Understand, with authenticity and integrity I declare these words, 'This body is the chinmayavigraha, an embodiment of super-consciousness without any rajas and tamas, restlessness and inertness. It is 'shuddha chitta chinmaya vigraha' (pure representation of the Cosmos). Any shadow of it - even if you have painted it, is also chinmayavigraha (because you paint it only after you have visualized it). The chinmaya-vigraha has already entered your heart and come out through your hand; it has filled your inner space. Even remote paintings and pictures done by eN-Genius kids on me are chinmaya-vigraha.

Understand, chaaya (shadow) is kaaya (original) shadow is the original. Portrait is the being. When either rajas or tamas is added in the body, then those photographs may not be chimaya-vigraha. Only when I am in sattva (purity), the photographs taken are chimaya-vigraha. But I tell you, I have not added anything this time. A pure 'shuddha chitta

If your expectations are not met by yourself or by others, it remains as an incompletion. Sit and complete with all the incompletions.

chinmaya vigraha'! Any photograph, painting or portrait of mine, even if it is done by an amateur artist, is 'shudda chitha chinmaya vigraha'.

Sit with any one of that and complete. I will listen to you. I am listening to you. I will help you to listen to your own heart!

First, learn to listen to your heart's cry. Most of the time you do not even listen to yourself ! Sit in front of a mirror. Talk, whatever you want to tell yourself, spend time with yourself. Talk, talk, talk! Listen, as the person inside the mirror. Listen, listen, listen!

Humanity will walk out of depression with just this one process of completion! Humanity can have this one practice as a lesson in schools, educational organizations, and as a curriculum for bringing up human beings, helping humanity to sit with the mirror and talk to themselves, completing your self – 'poornatva'.

svapoornatva means completion with yourself. Try this. If any of you have knee pain or back pain or can't sit straight or can't sit in vajrasana, do this svapoornatva, sitting with the mirror and completing with yourself. The next day, you will sit without pain! Because, every pain you carry within you in different parts of your body, is nothing but an incompletion with yourself ! Understand, the disturbance is from inside, not outside. It is always from inside. It is always the inner woman who disturbs, not the outer woman. This is nothing but incompletion within you.

There is a beautiful story in Narada's life.

Before he was given the status of Chiranjeevi, Devarshi, Narada was made to go through all the tests of life. Narada is one of the 'celestial media officers,'

that is the right word to use. He was made to live with rivers of nectar, with beautiful women, alcohol, and somarasa (nectar ). All types of pleasures, wide varieties and wild quantities! Because he was not touched by all this, he was given the title of devarshi.

I am not going to put you in that situation, don't worry. I know what chaos you will create! Don't worry, don't fantasize that I am going to help you for that. No! All I am telling you is to have completion inside. Listen to your heart's cries. Maybe your heart is crying that it wants certain pleasures, lust or love that may come from lust. Your heart may be craving for them. Listen! I am not saying, just go behind your heart and fulfill all your desires. NO! Just listen. By listening itself, your heart will say, 'This listening is all I wanted! I don't need anything more.'

Sit in front of the mirror. Connect with the person you are seeing in the mirror, eye-to-eye. Maintain eye-contact with the person. Sit alone with the mirror, alone with yourself.

One of the great avadhoothas who happened in the southern part of Bharat, was called Vaikuntapati Ayya. He was a great avadhootha, and a great social reformer. They still have around three thousand temples all over the world. There, the mirror is the only deity. He knew this technique and he promoted this technique. The mirror is the deity;

'svapoornatva' means completion with yourself. Humanity will walk out of depression with just this one process of completion.

you go and stand in front of the mirror and talk to yourself and complete with yourself – poornatva, and come back. His samadhi is there near Kanyakumari. He is called Vaikuntapati, a great avadhootha.

As a mark of respect to him, we will dedicate a mirror in all our centers and ashrams, where people can come and do svapoornatva.

Please understand, svapoornatva is the process of completing with yourself. Let me describe the technique.

Be seated comfortably in front of the mirror. Have deep eye-to-eye contact with the reflection. Please understand, both together is you. I will call it as kaaya and chaaya, both put together is YOU. Let the kaaya and chaaya have a deep eye-to-eye contact. The moment you have deep eye to eye contact, the first thing you will have is ripples. You are waiting to cry to yourself. You are waiting to cuddle and cry. Cuddle and cry to yourself for the many things you did to you or others did to you, the injustice you did to yourself and others did to you. Cuddle your chaaya, hold your chaaya and cry. Nothing wrong in it! Complete with yourself.

Just this svapoornatva eases you so much and makes the miracle space available in you. ananda-gandha is what I call miracle space.

Complete, complete with yourself. Talk to your shadow, your chaaya. You will be surprised; your shadow will start talking to you, advising you, listening to you. It will relieve you from fear, from many of your lust patterns, attention need, and guilt.

Sit with the mirror to do svapoornatva. Complete with yourself. Whenever

you feel any disturbances within you, just sit with the mirror and complete. If you sit with the mirror and start completing, you will learn to listen to yourself.

Please understand, when you start learning to listen to yourself, you will know how to listen to others.

Listen, listen, listen! That is where the completion starts, whether it is the completion in you or in others. It starts by listening!

Start svapoornatva today. Step by step, I want all of you to experience enriching enlightenment. It is the first step. Do the completion with the mirror. I know most of you are too busy, too busy with the confusion of your mind, the chaos of your mind, the insecurities of your mind and the diseases of your being. You are so busy, that you don't even want treatment. Because, even to take the medicine, you have to sit up, which you don't want! Come out of the self induced sickness. Live life!

Sit with the mirror today. Listen to your heart's complaints about yourself and about others. You may be carrying lot of complaints about me. Listen to them. Don't push them under the carpet. Listen! By listening, millions of incompletions will be completed.

When you start learning to listen to yourself, you will know how to listen to others.

Wherever the mirror booths are placed, understand that my Presence is there. I will support you guys for svapoornatva, for completion with yourself.

Do it with integrity and authenticity. I will be there to ensure that the process is successful and complete for you.

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

Each word you utter and honor integrates you and strengthens you. Each time you don't respect or honor your word, you are weakened. Success is nothing but you having confidence in you and others having confidence in you.

Today, I am receiving pictures from all over the world, from the people doing svapoornatva, the completion technique. I am so happy that all you guys have completed svapoornatva. Only when the completion happens, you will learn to listen.

When you listen, you understand, you become God. Listening makes you God! Only God can make you God. Nothing else can make you God. Only diamond can cut the diamond! Earlier, I used to think that listening about spiritual truths is God. When I became enlightened, I realized – No*. Any listening is God.* If you are listening to the sparrow's sound now without giving any meaning to it - just pure listening – that is God. Only if you learn pure listening, you will also be able to learn and give the right meaning.

Understand, pure listening happens only when you start listening to you. When you start listening to you, integrity happens in you. Integrity means honoring every word you utter to yourself and others.

For example, suppose you utter a word, 'I commit with me that I will attend morning yoga properly'. Then, you should give your life to fulfill it. The commitment you make to others is word, the commitment you make to yourself is thought. The commitment you make to others is word and the commitment you make to yourself is thought.

Almost all the time, you use very loose words inside you and outside you. Whenever certain people come and tell me, 'I surrender to you,' I laugh at them. We use loose words; we speak so casually. Each word you utter and honor integrates you, strengthens you. Each time you don't respect or honor your word, you are weakened. Understand, each time you honor the words you give to others, their confidence in you grows. Each time you honor the word you give to yourself, your confidence in you grows. Success is nothing but you having confidence in you and others having confidence in you. That is all. Life is complete. You having confidence in you and others having confidence in you is success.

As a mark of this commitment, I will decide. From today, I will wear a wristwatch. I am going to wear a wristwatch to remind me about my commitment. I never respected time. The understanding - 'Time is a lie' is true from the space of enlightenment. But when you come down to play inside time and space, you should that feel that time is God; time

When you listen, you understand, you become God. Listening makes you God.

is the embodiment of God. Only then, you can play.

Each time you honor you word to others, others' confidence in you grows. Each time you honor your word to yourself, your confidence in you grows. Be very clear, you don't have to commit to a promise which you can't fulfill. But if you commit, fulfill it. Integrity does not mean only fulfilling the word you utter in front of people. Integrity is honoring the words and thoughts which happen inside you, even when you are in your bedroom or bathroom, where nobody is there. The number of thoughts you have drastically drops, because you have to think through every thought. Before a thought arises, you have to go and consciously erase it - this is not, this is not, this is not the word I am going to commit to myself. Integrity is the basic requirement for unclutching. It is a basic requirement for unclutching!

When you become integrated in every thought, you become responsible. Suddenly, the number of thoughts drops drastically. Live with integrity, live with authenticity. Drill, drill, drill! Bring integrity again and again and again. Only when the polar - the priest who does the pooja respects time and brings integrity, the mantra he chants becomes reality. He says, 'Let there be peace in the world!' If he does not have integrity, how are his words going to become a reality? If he is with integrity and authenticity, he is a pure Brahman. His word will become reality!

Today, I give you the next process for all of you - all the words you utter to yourself, and all the words you utter to others, you will do both with integrity. This is today's assignment. First, look into your life and identify at least ten areas of your life where you have given your word, where you have given a promise to fulfill something. You might have fulfilled it or you might not have fulfilled it. That is a different thing. First, pen down the areas where you gave a word. Second, pen down

the areas where you did not fulfill your word. Third, pen down how you can repair all those areas and restore your word. Come up with each understanding. A rishi is one who is living these great sacred truths in life.

Let everything you do be with integrity and authenticity. You yourself can decide. In my sangha, if you are wearing just a kava colored shawl, it means that you are still practicing integrity and authenticity. If you are wearing full-kava color, then you are living integrity and authenticity. If you feel that you still need time to practice, there is nothing wrong. Even if you drop your full-kava and move to kava shawl, it is perfect. But complete, complete, complete, complete. And in the same way, I declare that if any ashramite comes to me with their request, declaring with integrity and authenticity that they are living a celibate life, I will ordain them with full-kava. Having ordained them, I will give the responsibility back to them. Of course, if you are a rishis, already committed with your spouse, unless you complete that commitment, you cannot take this up.

So make the three lists. First, all the areas where you have given a word to others and to yourself. Second, the areas you have not completed or fulfilled your word to others and to yourself. Third, what you can do to complete those commitments to others, and to yourself. Either complete it by

Each time you honor you word to others, others' confidence in you grows. Each time you honor your word to yourself, your confidence in you grows.

action, or if you can't, at least complete with them by informing them, 'I will not be able to fulfill my word, and I take it back. Please accept my apologies. I want to clean up the mess I created with my words. You please go ahead with your next plans. Let you not depend on the words I gave you. Let your life not have the mess and interference of the words I gave you.' Completion is also integrity. Completion is a basic need; only then, your life starts.

Shiva is the perfect symbol of these four tattvas. The damaru (drum) in Shiva's hand is integrity; the fire is authenticity. People ask, What is responsibility? The abhaya-hastha, the blessing hand, is responsibility. The hand with which he is holding Devi and teaching her - that is enriching. All the four hands of Mahadeva do the job of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching others.

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

Not having a hangover with the words you committed with you, and with others, is integrity. It is not morality or ethics. Morality and ethics vary from time to time. Integrity is absolute!

I will continue on integrity.

Please understand these basic few things. Integrity is not morality or ethics of the society. Integrity is a spiritual value. Integrity is you fulfilling the word and thought you give to yourself and others, and experiencing the state of poornatva, completion with yourself and with Life.

If you are not able to fulfill the words you give to yourself and others, at least declare it and undo it, complete it. Tell them, 'I will not be able to honor it. I will not be able to fulfill it. So please do not rely on this word I give you. Now, I alter the word I give you. You please make alternative plans.'

Integrity means completion. Even if you are not able to fulfill the word you gave, if you tell that to the person very clearly, that is integrity.

Part 2: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!_English_part_2.md

Not having a hangover with the words you committed with you and with others, is integrity. It is not morality or ethics. Please understand an important thing. I am not saying that morality should not be practiced, or that ethics should not be practiced. But sometimes, (understanding) the wrong meaning of the word will not allow you to practice it.

What is morality? In a given society, in a given era of that society, morality is generally the accepted standards of what is desirable and undesirable, what is considered right and wrong conduct, and what is considered by that society as good or bad behavior of a person, a group or an entity. Morality is about good and bad, right and wrong. It changes from time to time, era to era. When time changes, all this changes! I don't say practice morality, and I don't say do not practice morality. I am very clear. Whenever I give any instructions to my disciples, I am very clear. I am not saying practice morality, and same way, I am not saying do not practice morality. But I give you this instruction, practice integrity, it is a spiritual value. For all my disciples, I give you this instruction. Practice integrity, it is a spiritual value.

Integrity is not ethics. What is ethics? In a given group, ethics is the agreed-upon standard of what is desirable and undesirable, what is considered right and wrong conduct, and what is considered by

Not having a hangover with the words you committed with you and with others, is integrity.

that group as good and bad behaviour of a person, group or entity, that is a member of the group, and may include defined bases for discipline, including exclusion. Ethics is different, integrity is different.

Morality and ethics vary from time to time. Integrity is absolute. Patanjali says, 'saarvabhoumya vrataaha,' an absolute principle. Law, morality, ethics, orders - all these change by geography, change from country to country and change from society to society. But integrity, as Patanjali declares, is 'saarvabhoumya vrataaha;' it is universal.

I wanted to give you all one more day to dig deep into all the integrity related points. Where you have committed to yourself and to others and where you have missed - I wanted all of you to again complete the assignment now.

First, identify areas of your life where you experience conflict and feel powerless. Contemplate and examine what is the non-integrated behaviour that exists in this area. Identify your non-integrated thoughts, words and behaviour, and restore completion to this aspect of your life today.

Second, do svapoornatva - completion with yourself, or poornatva kriya completion with the other people involved in this aspect or aspects of your life.

Do this before you come to the morning satsang tomorrow. Blessings to all of you, to complete the integrity assignments! Complete with others and with yourself also.

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

Understand, you are responsible even for what others believe you to be for them. Knowingly or unknowingly, it is your indirect commitment and indirect co-operation. Unless you also give them certain indirect signals through your body language, they do not believe what you are, in their heart.

Today I will start on Authenticity.

The next dimension that is mandatory for you to enrich yourself and others in enlightenment is authenticity. The exact translation of this word in Sanskrit is shraddha. This word is from kathopanishad, which teaches the science of death and beyond death. Let us enter into authenticity.

Let me define authenticity. Authenticity is you being established and responding to life from who you believe yourself to be for yourself, who you believe yourself to be for others, and what others believe you to be for them.

Understand, you are responsible even for what others believe you to be, for them. Knowingly or unknowingly, it is your indirect commitment, your indirect co-operation. Please understand, unless you also give them certain indirect signals through your body language, they do not believe what you are, in their heart.

Let me give you a practical example from my life. Even if I don't declare it in words, the moment I assume this throne and let you see me in this throne, I have declared and made you believe that I am an incarnation. The moment I sit on the throne and put my feet on these padukas, and the mantras chanted by the devotees describes me as 'sarva deva devi svaroopaaya' – (embodiment of all the Gods and Goddesses), the moment I let that mantra be chanted in my presence, I have already committed to all who have heard that mantra. I have already declared. Now, I have to authentically stand by my commitment, even if I have not verbally said it. In the same way, the moment you marry somebody, you have committed to that person with authenticity, even though there are many vows that you do not verbally or directly commit.

Authenticity has three layers. One, what you believe as yourself, for yourself. Yesterday, I tried to have some fun. I tried to do svapoornatva with the mirror. But the moment I sat, I got lost, as there was neither kaaya (body), nor chaaya (reflection)! After that, I got up, washed my face and went to sleep. I am so happy that I hold myself as a pure super-consciousness!

The second layer is how you show yourself to others, and what others believe as you.

Understand. Let me define this once more. What

Authenticity is you being established and responding to life from who you believe yourself to be for yourself, for others, and what others believe you to be for them.

you believe as yourself for yourself is mamakara. Please understand. How you project yourself to others is ahankara. What you believe as yourself, for yourself is mamakara. How you project yourself to others is ahankara.

The third layer that is very important is how others perceive you. Others may perceive you differently from how you project yourself. Even for that, you become responsible! You become responsible for how others perceive you, because you subtly co-operate with it, whether you want it or not and whether you are aware of it or not. For example, you may believe yourself to be an ordinary man, but you may project yourself to others as a great sadhu, and others may not believe it! So there are three entities here. Somebody may believe that you are enlightened; somebody else may believe that you are an incarnation; somebody may think that you are just a fake sadhu. But you are responsible for each one's belief, because you subtly cooperate with it!

That is why I declare with integrity and authenticity, that I am responsible for every image created by me. That is why I feel powerful. I don't feel abused. If you call me as a poornavatara because I gave you something, I am responsible for it. If you call me a great sadhu because I gave you something, I am responsible for it. If you call me enlightened because I gave you something, I am responsible for it. If you call me a fake sadhu, I am responsible for that also. Because, I did not stop you or try to change your belief ! So I authentically declare that I am responsible to live with it. I am complete with it.

For others' perception of you, we use the Sanskrit word 'anyakara'. So, there is ahankara, mamakara and anyakara! I am responsible even for anyakara, because I allow it! I allow all the devotees doing the pada pooja to invoke me as an embodiment of God, because thousands of

peoples' devotion is invoked, with which I can enlighten them. But at the same time, if there are people who are not convinced, who feel that I am a cheat, I am responsible for that also, because I allow this mantra to be chanted. Or I should have waited without letting this be chanted, until the whole world believes that I am an incarnation - for which even Jesus would have been waiting until now! So naturally, we do take some hurried steps, even though the whole world is not ready to come with us, at our speed.

Just for the sake of the few who are ready to come with me, I tolerate the disturbances caused by the negative anyakara. I bear with it because of the benefits the seekers get. If some people feel that I am fake, I feel responsible even for their anyakara. That is why I don't feel powerless before their anyakara. It is not a surprise to me.

Poison is not a surprise to Mahadeva. There will be people who will have doubts! Mahadeva is complete with being 'Neelakanta', the one who has swallowed the poison and holds it in his throat. People ask, what is the meaning of the symbol of poison in his throat? Neelakanta is the symbol that Mahadeva is complete, even with the negative anyakara. He declares his authenticity, and he is complete with his ahankara, mamakara and anyakara. That is why he is Mahadeva, Shiva! By having the haalahaala poison in his throat, Mahadeva declares,

You become responsible for how others perceive you, because you subtly co-operate with it.

'Nothing is a surprise for me!'

Only when you have the clarity that nothing can be a surprise for you, you will have the guts to take responsibility and enter into others' life. Only then will you understand the meaning of the words, 'Don't give up on people.' Understand, when you are complete with the statement, 'Nothing surprises me, I am ready for any anyakara, I will face anyakara,' only then will you learn the meaning of the truth – 'Don't give up on people'.

I want you all to meditate on the word anyakara. All of you know ahankara and mamakara. mamakara means what you feel as yourself. ahankara means what you show to others as yourself. anyakara means what others believe as you, independent of what you project as you.

Contemplate on anyakara. What others hold as you is independent of what you project as yourself to others. That is why the effects of anyakara surprise you, whether it is good or bad. I am neither surprised by a devotee who is ready to give his life for me nor surprised by a devotee who is ready to take my life. I am complete with both, because I know both the possibilities.

Today's assignment is this: What are the sufferings that you think were caused in your life, by others' anyakara, which is independent of your ahankara? What do you think happened in your life because of anyakara, the idea that others carry about you, which is independent of what you project as you?

It is a very powerful assignment. For the next two days, do this. For the next two days, I want you to work on anyakara. Contemplate, contemplate, contemplate on anyakara. I tell you, if you are complete

with anyakara, I can declare you are God! I can authentically declare you are God. Completion with anyakara is where people miss. People always catch completion with ahankara and mamakara, because both are in your control. Complete with anyakara.

So all of you will do the home work assignment. Look at your life and pen down:

• G What are all the good and bad things that happened in your life, due to anyakara, others' idea and image about you, which is independent of what you feel as you and what you project as you. Ready? When you express more and more, the deeper and deeper truths come out.
• G The second part of the assignment find out how you are responsible even for what others hold as you! Write down how you are responsible for others' anyakara.

It is the confusion between your ahankara and mamakara that is responsible for anyakara. If you are surprised about others' anyakara about you, it means that there is some unconsciousness in you. Work on how you are responsible for anyakara.

Please get your paper and pen and start the assignment on anyakara now. Please write down -

What others hold as you is independent of what you project as yourself to others. That is why the effects of anyakara surprise you.

what are the good bad things that happened to you, because of what others feel as you, independent of what you project as you to others.

(While the participants write, Swamiji starts singing in Tamil)

This is satsang! – you sat, I sang – this is sat-sang!

I bless you all! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'. Thank you!

Take responsibility for your ahankara, mamakara and anyakara. Then no suffering can come to you. No one can bring suffering to you. You don't want to take responsibility. That is why life brings sur prise sufferings to you.

Today is Avatar Day! As you all may be aware, I have completed thirty five years of existence! I begin the thirty sixth year. So nice to be here with you all! So beautiful, so many devotees have gathered around the world in your places, and so many devotees have gathered from around the world here in Tiruvannamalai. So this year begins with lot of good things!

I will share a few words on authenticity. I will continue on the subject of authenticity. I will just share a few words on authenticity, giving you the essence of authenticity

Authenticity means keeping the mamakara, ahankara and anyakara in tune.

G mamakara is what you believe as you.

• G ahankara is what you project as you to others.
• G anyakara is what others believe as you.

Understand, you are responsible even for anyakara! anyakara - what others believe as you, can even be independent of what you project as you. Even then, you are responsible for anyakara. You are authentic only when you feel responsible even for what others hold as you, which is independent of your outer projection or your inner image. You may feel, 'How can I be responsible for how others perceive me?' Only when you feel responsible, you will feel powerful and empowered. You will not feel powerless. Life cannot bring any surprises to you.

I will give an example. In my mamakara, I experience myself as pure emptiness, a pure space. But during the pada-pooja (offering of gratitude) everyday, when devotees chant the mantras, they invoke me as the representation of all the Gods and Goddesses – 'Meenakshi- Sundareshwara svaroopaaya, Kaalabhairava-Mahakaali svaroopaaya, AdiGuru Arunagiri Yogishwara svaroopaaya,' (the one, who is the embodiment of all the Gods and Goddesses)!

The reason I allow these mantras to be chanted is this - I can see that thousands of people, when they have the feeling connection with the Divine, flower and become enlightened. When those mantras are

You are authentic only when you feel responsible even for what others hold as you, which is independent of your outer projection or your inner image.

chanted, the beautiful feeling connection that people experience helps them to achieve enlightenment.

Understand, in Vedic tradition, even God is a stepping stone for enlightenment. All the forms and names of the Gods, everything, is used for attaining enlightenment, for nirvikalpa samadhi. When the devotion, the feeling connection is awakened in you, you automatically go towards enlightenment.

In the same way, somebody with *kutarka (wrong logic) may feel, '*How can this be? He is a fake!' Please understand, I take responsibility even for that kutarka and anyakara. That is the reason life does not bring any surprise to me. Nothing surprises me; the side effects of anyakara never surprise me.

Just a few days ago, I was sitting in front of the mirror, and seeing what I really experience as me. After a few seconds, neither was the body there, nor was the reflection there! So I experience me as pure emptiness, a pure space; that is my mamakara. I am using this word because there is no other word I can use; otherwise there is no mamakara for me. To transmit this pure emptiness to you, I allow you to use the words Arunagiri Yogishwara, Meenakshi, Bhairava, Mahakaali - all the words that which you feel connected to. That is my ahankara. Somebody may feel, 'Wow, he is an incarnation!' That is one anyakara. Somebody may say, 'He is a jeevan mukta!' That is one more anyakara. Somebody may say, 'He is a fake!' That is one more anyakara, that's all!

Shiva never feels surprised by the poison brought to him. Neelakanta is the proof that he takes the responsibility even for others' anyakara. Take responsibility in your life, even for others' anyakara; you will be the lord of your life - empowered, and life cannot bring any surprises

to you. Then, when life cannot bring any surprises to you, it cannot bring suffering also to you!

When the churning of the milky ocean started, everyone was waiting only for the nectar. That is why, when the poison emerged, it was suffering for them. But Mahadeva was waiting for the poison also, that is why it could not bring suffering to him.

Let the world not create words in you. Let your words create the world around you! Take responsibility for your ahankara, mamakara and anyakara. Then no suffering can come to you. No one can bring suffering to you. You don't want to take responsibility, and that is why life brings surprises to you. Life brings surprise sufferings to you.

Take responsibility for all the three. When you take responsibility for all the three, you will feel empowered. You won't feel powerless. You won't feel that something unexpected is happening. Just let your inner space be completely integrated with the words you utter, with authenticity.

Understand, if you can't be made to believe that you are wrong, you are not wrong! Nobody can win over you. Only if you somehow give way, if you start believing that you are wrong, something can happen to you. Stand with the strength of integrity

Take responsibility for your ahankara, mamakara and anyakara. Then no suffering can come to you.

and authenticity. It is a spiritual strength. Spiritual strength alone is the solution for anything. Nothing else can be the solution; neither power nor money, neither society nor political strength. Spiritual strength alone can solve everything. Let us stand with our integrity, authenticity and responsibility.

I tell you, only when you take the responsibility for anyakara, you grow, you expand. But you say – 'No, no! I am responsible for what I feel as me, and what I project as me. But how can I be responsible for what others believe as me?' Subtly, knowingly or unknowingly, you cooperate for what others believe as you. In my case, I do it knowingly; in your case, you do it unknowingly, that's all. But you are responsible for it! Understand, you can only solve the problems for which you feel responsible, nothing else. You can only complete the things for which you feel responsible. If you feel that you are not responsible, you will never look into it and complete it.

Today, my message to all of you is this: feel responsible and live with integrity with all the three – mamakara, ahankara and anyakara. Take responsibility even for anyakara, so that you can align it. You can complete it. You can fulfill it.

Let us conclude the morning satsang with the meditation process. Sit in ananda-gandha, be established in your inner space, either unclutched or doing ajapa-japa or with a deep feeling connection. Keep eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM' as your clearance in your ananda-gandha. Please close your eyes and just sit in your ananda-gandha. Namaha shivaya! (Blesses)

Take responsibility for your ahankara, mamakara and anyakara. Then no suffering can come to you. No one can bring suffering to you. You don't want to take responsibility; that is why surprise adds suffering to you.

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

You can only solve the problems for which you feel responsible, nothing else. You can only complete the things for which you feel responsible, nothing else.

Go on stretching , stretching , stretching. Then people ask, 'What will happen, Swamiji? Then you will become almost like a slave of other people!' NO. You will be a slave only if you are forced. If you are a master, you will take on willingly!

I will continue on authenticity. I hope all of you have done the home work on mamakara, ahankara and anyakara? The assignment is for you to look in on how you are affected by the anyakara of others, both good and bad, and how you are going to complete it. Understand the gist.

mamakara means what you feel as you. For example, I can very authentically say that I just feel that I am pure empty space. There is something kept in front of the pure empty space, which operates to create this sangha. Otherwise, my mamakara about me is just a pure empty space.

The image you project to the others is called ahankara. Please understand, the image you believe as you, the idea you believe as you, is mamakara. The idea you project to the world is ahankara. What others believe as you, which is independent of both these, is anyakara. You may believe something as you, you may show something else to others as you, but they will believe something else about you!

See, I believe myself as a pure space, I cognize myself as a pure space. I project myself as an incarnation who wants to give this pure space to you. My belief as me, my cognizance of me as a pure space, is my mamakara. My decision to project myself as an incarnation who shares, who wants this space to be experienced by others also, is my ahankara. What you believe as me, is anyakara. What others perceive as me, is anyakara.

For example, somebody sees Shiva in me; it is his anyakara, which is independent of my mamakara and ahankara. In your idea of me, you perceive me as Shiva. But I allow it. Why? Because, through that perception, there is a high chance that you can experience what I am trying to offer you.

Please understand, in my inner space I do not feel myself as Shakti, Shiva, Sri Ramakrishna - whatever you project as me, none of that! In my inner space, I perceive myself as chinmaya, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM, empty space, which is a quality, not a definition. There is no definition of name and form. It is more like a quality or a qualification. So the anyakara which you feel about me is independent of what I feel as me and what I project as me. I am very clear that I project and I want to protect myself, only as a person who is an embodiment of super-consciousness, who wants to share that with the world. That's it. But because you feeling that I am Shiva helps you to experience that space, I allow it. And because I am allowing, I am indirectly responsible for it.

In the same way, somebody feels. 'He must be fake.' Please understand, maybe he was given too much of understanding, before he is able to digest it! So even for that, I am responsible. For example, if somebody was sleeping all the time, and I tell him that I am an incarnation, then it is too much for him to suddenly digest! If somebody gets the spiritual

experience from me, or some glimpse of superconscious energy in their life, and then if he is introduced to the idea that I am an incarnation, he may not have kutarka, or the feeling that I am fake. But fortunately or unfortunately, I am also in jet speed, and our sangha is also in jet speed. So whoever comes, comes, and whoever drops, drops!

So authenticity means aligning your life to mamakara, ahankara and anyakara, to all three. Please understand, we always feel that we are responsible for mamakara and ahankara, but we very conveniently do not want to take the responsibility of anyakara. No! Authenticity means living by taking the responsibility for all three. When somebody looks at me as Shiva, I need to take the responsibility of Shiva and do for him whatever Shiva will do for him - stretching my ability. He may expect some boons from Shiva. So now, it is my responsibility to stretch my super-consciousness to give him those boons, to give him that healing and make myself available as Shiva. Understand? That is authenticity. Whether I commit or not, people expect that I should teach them yoga, I should teach them spiritual truths. Stretching to others' anyakara is authenticity.

Understand I go on stretching, stretching and stretching. Then people ask, 'What will happen Swamiji? Then you will almost become like a slave to other people! You have to do whatever they say!'

Authenticity means aligning your life to mamakara, ahankara and anyakara, to all three.

NO! You will be a slave only if you are forced. If you are a master, you will take it on willingly. I decide to fulfill whatever people project on me. Even if it is a negative anyakara, stand up and face it. Take responsibility even for that, not giving up on them, and continuously working, working and working, to make even them understand that their understanding is wrong. Don't give up on people! Only when you take responsibility, you will feel powerful enough to solve the problem. Blaming somebody else will only make you feel more and more powerless!

Authenticity means living to the peak of your capacity. What is my authenticity? I am supposed to deliver this knowledge and experience to people. People have come from all over the world to experience this. So I have to make myself available. Living to your peak and having the alignment of all three – mamakara, ahankara and anyakara - this is authenticity. Understand, authenticity means living to the peak of your capacity in every moment of your life, as per your understanding of your peak capacity and others' understanding of your peak capacity.

Authenticity is not just you living out what you think as your peak, but also what others think as your peak. Only when you stretch yourself to others' image and expectations about you, you express extraordinary capacities and miracle powers. As per my mamakara and ahankara, I don't need to express miracle powers. I am a pure empty space and I transmit that to others; I don't need to express miracle powers. But because of the anyakara, I express miracle powers. If you see any boon expressing through me, any healing experience through me, any extraordinary powers expressing through me, understand that it is because of my authenticity with others' anyakara. You too are bound to be authentic with others' anyakara. Life happens to you only when you are authentic with others' anyakara. Understand?

Listen - when I speak about integrity, everybody thinks, 'Alright, I will commit only this much, as per my capacity.' No!. You will commit, deliver and live, stretching yourself to what others feel as your capacity, this is authenticity! Stretching yourself to complete others' anyakara and not just your mamakara or ahankara is authenticity. When you stretch yourself to complete your mamakara, you have satori, you are complete with you. When you stretch yourself to complete your ahankara, you become enlightened, you are complete with the identity that you project to others. But only when you complete with others' anyakara, you become an incarnation! You become an incarnation. Understand, every one of you has to become an incarnation!

Success, victory, life and realization - all these are synonymous. All these happen in you only when you become authentic to others' anyakara. Understand, it happens only when you become authentic to others' anyakara! I go on stretching, stretching and stretching. When people project that I should be able to materialize, I say – 'O Consciousness, be authentic to their anyakara and materialize!' And I materialize. When people project that I have to heal them, I say, 'Alright, come on, be authentic to their anyakara!' And the healing power expresses. Life happens to you when you decide to be authentic to others' anyakara and not just your mamakara and ahankara.

When you complete with others' anyakara, you become an incarnation.

You think, 'Oh God! No! I will be the slave of people!' No. When you commit, you are not a slave. And even if you don't commit, people are going to make you do it! Only then, you are a slave. Understand, even if you don't commit with authenticity, they are going to make you do it.

Vivekananda says very clearly, 'Either you sacrifice, or maya will snatch it from you!' Either you work or people will make you work! If you do it, it is dedication, and you are a master. If you are made to do it, you are a slave. When you are authentic, you will not play a cunning, safe game. If I was playing a cunning, safe game, I would have still been sitting under the banyan tree with closed eyes!

When you are authentic, you will commit words which express your maximum peak capacity, as per your understanding of your peak capacity, and as per others' understanding of your peak capacity. When somebody expects that I should be a nirahari (yogi, living without food), I immediately stretch my super-consciousness and tell my body and mind, 'Express this quality now; be authentic to others' anyakara.' Only then victory happens. Only then authenticity happens!

I know, many people have already closed their heart doors for this teaching! You are saying, 'No, you stop with ahankara and mamakara. This anyakara is too much! I cannot try this!' I tell you, only when you are authentic with others' anyakara, life starts. Even if you close the doors, I am not going to stop! I will continue to knock!

So, commit to the maximum capacity of what you feel as your capacity, and what others feel as your capacity, and do everything to honour it and fulfill it. Only with authentic commitment, life moves further. If you don't commit that you will wake up at 5 a.m. for morning yoga, then what you will be doing at that time? Just rolling on the bed! You wasted your

life, all these years. You built the pattern of self-fear and low self-confidence.

You don't know, how confident I feel with the identity with which I am operating and relating with you all. I myself do not feel that I am that identity, but I am using a certain identity to relate with you all and to run this sangha. I can see that that identity is being blessed by me! The real 'Me' is blessing that identity – so beautiful, you are doing so wonderfully, let you live long, let you do good to the world, 'tathaasthu' - so be it. I can see so much of blessings being showered on that identity!

Continuously, commit with words which express your maximum peak capacity, as per your understanding, and as per other's understanding of your peak capacity. And do anything and everything to honor and fulfill those words. Stretch yourself. Let all the powers inside you be unleashed!

This morning, I asked the Gurukul kids, 'How many days will it take you guys to memorize the Isha Vasya Upanishad. They said, 'Just two days!' You guys don't know how much of joy I felt! It was so much joy when these kids are so authentic - because in my space I thought that two days is enough. I thought two days must be the time they should ask. Exactly! One kid shouted, 'Two days,'

Continuously, commit with words which express your maximum peak capacity, as per your understanding, and as per other's understanding of your peak capacity.

and every one said, 'Done!' And I tell you guys, they will do it! They are authentic to the core. Every moment of their life is authentic.

Yesterday we were having a session with Gurukul kids. The first thing I told was, 'Don't give up on people, but do not entertain any of the reasons they give you! A brahmana lives with solutions and a chandala (outcast) lives with reasons.

Understand, authenticity means stretching, stretching and stretching. Go on stretching, that is life! Go on stretching without fear, and without giving up on you. Stretching, stretching and stretching is life! When you authentically commit, so much of energy is sent to your body and mind, and your laziness pattern is broken. Many of you have this sickness pattern. Why? Because you authentically commit with the sickness pattern, 'I will fall sick again and again, so that I don't need to go to morning yoga!' Whatever you commit will become your reality, because that is what is sitting in your ananda gandha, in your inner space. The moment you commit, 'I am going to do it,' you will do it. When you commit that you are going to do it, the cosmos immediately sends energy to your body and mind, and you do it!

So today's assignment is this. Scan your whole life and identify areas where you feel powerless or experience conflict. Understand, whenever you feel powerless or experience conflict in your life, there is surely some inauthenticity in that aspect of your life. First, identify this. Only then, the transformation will happen. It is neither wrong nor right. The moment you identify and bring authenticity, you will see transformation happens.

Do this much today, you can do the next part tomorrow. Clear? I also request you all to watch the morning satsang everyday, so that you are prepared and come there to play with my mystical energies. Understand, when you are prepared with the basic ideas, you can just come, jump and swim in the mystical energies and get this whole thing as part of you.

The very air in our ashram is filled with these tattvas, these satyas. Even the breeze of the banyan tree flows with integrity and authenticity. We wash our brain, heart - everything, with this one thought. Let these truths, let these tattvas of integrity and authenticity be in the air where you are living, with all the people who are living around you!

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

Valid reason plus work not done is not equal to work done.

Bring authenticity - the ability to stretch yourself to complete all the anyakara. anyakara - what others feel about you, is not a curse! It is the possibility that you can expand. If they feel that you are great, expand and stretch yourself to fulfill that! If they think that you are wrong , be strong enough to stand and withstand.

Let us start today's subject. I will continue to expand on authenticity, which we were working on yesterday.

I was explaining the tattvas of mamakara, ahankara and anyakara, and taking responsibility even for others' anyakara. Please understand, whether it is the ordinary level of the world, the metaphysical level of using the powers of the mind, or the spiritual level of using conscious powers - in all of the three levels, only when you take the responsibility for anyakara, you express and radiate.

There is a very beautiful story. It is a Buddhist story which has a deep meaning. A very powerful metaphysical science is expressed through this story. Somebody goes and asks Buddha, 'You talk so much about nibbana!' nibbana means the ultimate state of enlightenment – nirvana. In Sanskrit we call it as nirvana, in Buddhism it is called nibbana. The word is borrowed from Shaiva siddhantha. We have records that this word

was first used around eight thousand years ago by the great Shaiva siddhantha saint, Tirumoolar. He used this word - nirvana deeksha.

So somebody asks Buddha, 'Bhagavan, you speak so much about nibbaana, nirvana. When are you going to get into that state? Are you already in that state, or will you get into that state after leaving the body?' Jeevan mukti means living enlightenment, videha mukti means radiating enlightenment, after you leave the body. This person was asking about videha mukti. Buddha laughed, 'I naturally cannot say that I am in that state, because I am in the body.' And his next statement was shocking. He said, 'I am not going to achieve nirvana, even if I leave the body. Only after the last person on the planet achieves it, I will achieve it. I will be waiting!'

That is why I tell you, Buddha is still waiting. 'Until the last person achieves enlightenment, I am not going to have nirvana; I will be waiting.'

The masters who commit with their disciples do make themselves continuously available. This is extreme patience! Buddha works as if you are going to get enlightened today, but he is ready to wait until the last person gets enlightenment. The power of passion and the power of patience, both express in their extreme, only when you are authentic! Please understand, when a disciple feels, 'My master is responsible for my enlightenment,' the master fulfils your anyakara. That is why I say, 'I commit with you. Until you become enlightened, the energy which works through this body will do its job, and help you reach enlightenment!' Because, I am authentic about it!

Just a few days ago, one brahmachari was asking me, 'Swamiji, how do you have so much of patience, to go on repeating the same message? We are doing the same mistakes, and you repeat the same words! How do you have the patience?'

I was telling him, 'You are all taking about one janma (lifetime). I am repeating this to you guys for the last so many janmas. And, I know for sure that I am going to repeat this for at least a few more janmas. And I am going to repeat it!'

There is a beautiful story by Sri Ramakrishna. He says that only if it rains when the svaati nakshatra (star ) is in its peak, and the mother-of-pearl comes and opens her mouth above the ocean, and the svaati nakshatra goes inside the mother-of-pearl, and the mother-of-pearl goes into the ocean, only then will it create a pearl! See, how many things have to come together for a pearl to happen!

In the same way, for enlightenment to happen in you, you have to listen, internalize, have strong trust, and not be distracted in-between. There are so many things that need to be aligned! The rain knows that all the water it showers may not become a pearl. And it has to wait for the svaati star to rise, and then the mother-of-pearl to come up and open her mouth. It knows, but it still continues to shower. In the same way, I know that so many things have to align, but I continue to do my work! I continue to shower; I stretch, stretch and stretch! Peak capacity expresses with peak authenticity. I will not give up on you!

I tell you, unless you have tremendous patience - authenticity, it cannot become a reality in you.

The power of passion and the power of patience, both express in their extreme, only when you are authentic.

You need to have tremendous love and patience. I tell you, in any field, life happens to you, completion happens to you, only when there is tremendous love for people and a decision not to give up on people.

I was talking to some of the disciples yesterday. I was asking one lady about why her son never comes to our programs. She was giving some reasons. From the way she was giving reasons, I could see that she has given up on him! I told her, 'No, you cannot give up on people! The first thing is to be authentic. Do you really, honestly trusting what you are living? If you think that this is the best life that can happen to human beings, then you cannot give up on human beings. If you give up on human beings, then you are a hypocrite!' No! Whether you give up on me or not, I don't care. I will not give up on you!

Bring authenticity, the ability to stretch yourself to complete all the anyakaras. anyakara - what others feel about you, is not a curse! It is a possibility that you can expand. If they feel that you are great, expand and stretch yourself to fulfill that! If they think that you are wrong, be strong enough to stand and withstand it. I am doing my job. In the same way, it is now your turn to do your job. Raise yourself to the anyakara of others. Raise yourself, especially to my anyakara of you. I have a certain image about you. When I rise to the image you carry about me, it is now your turn to raise yourself to my image of you. Only then does the Guru-disciple relationship start.

Shiva has to raise the expectations for Uma and Uma has to rise up to the expectations of Shiva. Only then, Meenakshi's wedding happens. Meenakshi's wedding is the symbolic scene of the individual soul merging with the cosmic soul, the individual becoming enlightened. The independent soul always starts the journey fighting with the cosmic soul! Understand? The journey starts with a fight. The individual soul

says, 'Come on, what do you mean by not letting what I want, happen?'

When you want to buy two candies for fifty paise (cents), and the shop-keeper says that he will only give you one candy for that much money, that fight is nothing but your fight with the cosmic soul! Even that is an expression of the individual soul rebelling. Do not think that your individual soul rebels only when you start knowing the science of enlightenment. No! Your fight starts from age three, with the candyman, to have more candy for the same money. The journey, the ultimate journey, always starts with a fight. That is why the union of Meenakshi and Sundareshwara also starts with a fight. She goes all the way to Kailash, to fight! And poor Shiva is meditating!

Almost all of your sadhana (spiritual practice) is nothing but a fight! Each time you expand to fulfill the responsibility of others' image about you, the cosmic union happens in you. Meenakshi kalyana (wedding, union) happens in you. Meenakshi kalyana is the typical story of how an individual soul expressed authenticity with ahankara, mamakara and anyakara. Just by authenticity, she is a successful queen and goddess, an incarnation.

In all our temples I only keep incarnations. Venkateshwara is an incarnation, Arunagiri Yogishwara is an incarnation, Meenakshi is an

incarnation. Because, their lives have a meaning! They are not myth, they are perfect math! When you do not understand the math of the mystery, you become mythological. When you understand the mystery, you will understand it is a simple math, not myth. If you don't know the mystery, the math becomes myth. Meenakshi is the perfect example of authenticity with mamakara, ahankara and anyakara. Each time you raise yourself to my anyakara (my image of you), you express being one with the cosmos! You cease to be the individual soul and you become the cosmic soul!

I will brief explain Meenakshi's story. Meenakshi is a Pandya princess, an incarnation of the Divine Mother herself, who incarnated in the eighth century. She goes on a digvijaya (conquering all the directions). She goes and conquers literally everybody, and then goes to Kailash (the abode of Lord Shiva). There, she conquers Subramanya and Ganesha (the sons of Shiva). Finally, there is only Nandi (the aide of Shiva) who is left. She fights with him and wins over Nandi. Finally, she stands in front of Mahadeva, Shiva himself !

When your individual soul raises itself and stands face-to-face with the cosmic soul, the anger disappears, the sadhana disappears! Please understand, when the energy expresses as anger, if the anger is removed from the energy, it turns completely into love. So, she just fell in love, because the anger - the chili component of the energy, was removed. The story very sweetly says that for the first time in her life, Meenakshi understood what shyness was.

Understand, she was brought up to be a king, not just a queen! That is why she has so much power and aggression. She was like a powerful king, really powerful. So the story says that the moment she felt shyness, the masculine components which she was carrying in her body

all disappeared. She just fell into the deep depth of feminine consciousness. I can say that she became enlightened! The physiological and psychological mutation happened, the union of the masculine and feminine energy happened inside her.

Then Mahadeva says, 'Alright, what do you want, do you want to fight?' She says, 'No, I want to marry you.' Then he says, 'Alright; you are in a human body. So I too have to assume a human body to marry you. You go back to Madurai (city of Meenakshi). I will come there as Sundareshwara and marry you.' Then he comes down as Sundareswhara (avatar of Shiva) and marries her.

The whole story is the story of authenticity. Every time you raise yourself to others' anyakara, every time you stretch yourself to fulfill others' anyakara, you achieve completion. You achieve fulfillment. You achieve union. Liberation from your individual identity happens to you, only when you raise yourself to others' anyakara. When you stretch yourself to others' anyakara, liberation from ahankara and mamakara happens!

I will give you the next level of assignment. Please understand today's assignment. It is an extension of yesterday's assignment.

Today's assignment is this: Look deeply within and identify the inauthenticity, in all the conflicting

Every time you raise yourself to others' anyakara, every time you stretch yourself to fulfill others' anyakara, you achieve completion. You achieve fulfillment. You achieve union.

aspects of your life. What are the words that you gave and did not fulfill? Also, identify if you have given words that are not according to the peak of your capacity. And that is not just what you think as the peak of your capacity, but also what others consider as the peak of your capacity. For example, you may think your capacity is to get eighty percent in an examination, but your mother thinks that your capacity is to get one hundred percent. Only when you stretch, you will be able to liberate yourself from the identity that you are carry about you. The cover-up happens only by mamakara, but liberation from mamakara happens only when you fulfill others' anyakara.

So identify the words you gave but did not fulfill. Also, identify if you have given words that are not according to the peak of your capacity. And that is not just what you think as the peak of your capacity, but also what others consider as the peak of your capacity. Please pen down the assignment.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share and explode in eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'. Thank you!

sangha is a place where the tattvas are taught to you, and you are supported until they becomes satya. A successful sangha should be such that it continues to support with tremendous patience, with the tattva of not giving up on ourselves and people, and helping every individual to restore their integrity and authenticity. Then the sangha becomes an independent living mechanism.

Listen! sangha is a place where the tattvas are taught to you, and you are supported until they becomes satya. Until the tattva becomes a satya, the sangha is expected to support it. I am really so happy that finally, we are successfully evolving with the tattvas which help every individual to evolve with authenticity and integrity. A successful sangha should be such that it continues to support with tremendous patience, with the tattva of not giving up on ourselves and people, and helping every individual to restore their authenticity. prayaschitta is nothing but restoring your authenticity and integrity, and taking responsibility not to fall again. And if you have damaged somebody, then it also means completing with them and restoring their authenticity.

There is only one small shift, one small decision, and the seed will decide whether it will flower into a tree or not. I am a hundred percent sure that along with the seed of this Bidadi Banyan tree, there would also have been so many other seeds that were sown. This seed decided

to be authentic, it was just that one small decision. All great things happen by just one small decision, nothing more. That decides whether you are going to achieve the true end of life or the wrong end of life!

sangha should be a mechanism where every individual restores their integrity and authenticity. sangha is not totality of human beings. sangha is the place where these tattvas are lived, and support is constantly given by each other, to live and radiate these tattvas. Only now, I am seeing people help each other to restore integrity and authenticity. But we still have to evolve one step further, restore responsibility and enrich ourselves and others. For that, we should support each other. Then the sangha becomes an independent living mechanism. The sangha is still run by my energy.

When you decide not to give up on people and yourself, the new ambience is suddenly created. And now keeping Kalabhairava as witness, I commit with all of you, in front of the sangha, that I will handle everybody, only with these four tattvas, not give up on people and also taking responsibility for their inauthenticity. I am so happy that my vision is becoming a reality. It is flowering, it is flowering. We are able to help each other to restore authenticity. Next, we should be able to support each other to take responsibility. Then we should support each other to not to give up on ourselves

Sangha is a place where the tattvas are taught to you, and you are supported until they becomes satya.

and others. Then I can say that I have delivered the sangha.

The sangha has become an independent intelligent mechanism, where they can have others live these tattvas. Then it becomes a nationbuilding mechanism. It can really become the energy building Bhaarat (Hindu lived through the Vedic tradition). My vision is that we should be called as Bhaarat, by 2020. This is my declaration, with integrity, authenticity, responsibility and my commitment to enrich others. Only then will it become a nation-building energy. The energy revives the Sanatana dharma, the Vedic tradition, the tradition from which Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, everything evolved. I want each one of you to become a space where not only do you live these satyas of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching but you are also able to make even people who come in your space, live these satyas and tattvas. Only then do you become an authentic being, who is again and again taking responsibility.

See, when somebody comes for healing, this is what I do. I take responsibility for their karma, and my body just destroys that karma, that's all. I take the responsibility for their inauthenticity with their body. I can see that when I take the responsibility for their inauthenticity, their inauthenticity just gets destroyed. Taking responsibility for their body is very easy, because the body just listens to higher energy. But the mind does not listen so easily. Now the real thing is to take responsibility for their mental inauthenticity also. That is the real fun. That is where the sangha evolves. So when each one of you are established in these satyas, then each one of you are the moving sangha, the moving temple. Then, nothing is required. Just go and sit anywhere and the sangha will happen around you. You will become the source for people, the inspiration for people's inspiration.

If you feel, 'Just by my commitment, I have done prayaschitta, I don't need to do anything else', then perfect, go ahead. It is finally you who is important, not anything else. Because even if a few authentic people are left to live in this world, I know for sure that the torch which I brought to this world will be kept alive forever. That's all. Everywhere, it is the light of authenticity which keeps you alive and radiates light for others to live.

This whole sangha is only for supporting people to live these tattvas as satyas. I tell you again, with integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, I commit to the whole world having Kalabhairava as a witness and energy. abhayam sarvabhootebhyo! Let us bring more and more authenticity & responsibility in all of our thinking, feeling and living.

It is so nice. I can now see that everybody in the sangha has started picking up these tattvas, they have all started picking up these tattvas. They even talk in the language of pryaschitta. pryaschitta means restoring the completion of your chitta. chitta means mind, inner space. Restoring the completion of your mind is prayaschitta. I am seeing that people have started listening, listening, listening!

I wanted to talk only on this subject today, because you guys do not know how important it is.

Restoring the completion of your mind and inner space is prayaschitta

When all you wake up so early with integrity and authenticity come and do akhada and yoga very sincerely, you will have long breaths for that hour. Then, high energy simply happens to you, and brahmacharya will happen to you. brahmcharaya is nothing but high energy, that's all. I am defining brahmacharya - it is nothing but being authentic with high energy happening in you. Only when you have low energy, you need other person's presence in your life. is nothing but being authentic with your high energy.

How many of you guys authentically cognize and feel in your heart, on my vision of ten thousand sannyasis? Yes! Then let us also build our bodies to do this, the one-year-parivraajaka. We should be very sure that what we are living is the best. Only then will we have confidence to share it with others. This is best, do it! Only then will it reverberate in their heart, only then will it become their satya. Help every individual to find their root patterns of suffering, and help them to complete with themselves and others.

Completion can happen in 3 ways:

• svapoornatva and poorntava, completing with you and others.
• Catharsis see, there are some incompletions, like your incompletion with a tree, river, ghost and so on. These can be completed through catharsis.
• Finally, there is unclutching, helping people to flower.

There is a beautiful description - when Mahavira walks, the whole desert fills with flowers and blooms. That is the way it should be. When all ten thousand of us walk, all the desert-like human minds should

flower, blossom and celebrate it! Understand, it is we who should take responsibility even for others' inauthenticity and transform it. Let us take it up, that is life, that is the way life expands. Enlightenment flowers in you, sannyas flowers in you, only when you take the responsibility for others' inauthenticity

I have a huge group of people who want enlightenment on Facebook itself, 'Facebook enlightenment'! They ask, 'Please give me enlightenment now, now, now!' When I type, 'Please take the responsibility, integrity and authenticity', they say, 'What does it mean?' Tell them to watch daily satsangs and they say, 'I am busy.' They think that enlightenment is like a pill! The pill can only awaken the non-mechanical parts of the brain and help you. It awakens the nonmechanical parts of your brain. But after that, only you have to maintain it.

Today I only wanted to speak on this subject of creating the ambience for people to restore their integrity and authenticity. Each one of our sangha members should look in authentically, with integrity. 'Have you taken the responsibility for an ambience where people practice integrity and authenticity?' I have decided that I am going to create an ambience where people can practice integrity and authenticity.

Enlightenment flowers in you only when you take the responsibility for others' inauthenticity.

We will create an ambience where people can practice integrity and authenticity. Go on supporting this. It is possible, we can do it. Even when the ashram administration people come to me, I tell them 'let us deal with this as per the tattva. We have to think as per the tattva and satya' I am so happy that these satyas are getting pumped in every way, in decision making. So, each one of you is literally a sangha. Don't think that the sangha needs thousands of people. It is one person vibrating in the highest frequency, that integrated frequency is sangha.

Let you all vibrate with highest frequency of integrity and authenticity. Keep drilling these satyas. You may have failed many times but does not mean that you are a failure. You may have failed many times, for so many reasons. You cannot eat the reason; you can only create the vegetable and eat it. A farmer cannot come to the market and shout, 'Please give me money, I have valid reason due to which the vegetables have not grown.' The reasons cannot give you money, only the vegetables can give you money. It is the same way for the sangha. Each one of you should constantly cognize these four tattvas and live these four tattvas, . If you open your mouth, naturally, only these four tattvas should come out. We should go on believing and living these tattvas. This tattvas should make you live in your peak capacity and success.

I tell you, when these tattvas become and form your inner space, there is no leakage of energy. Energy leakage does not happen. Any kundalini awakened and poured in you, stays. Otherwise, I pour energy, but the leakage happens. kundalini awakening is more about living these satyas, and making more and more joy, making an ambience for more and more people to live these satyas. kundalini is about how many people you are able to inspire, with your energy. Every individual should become the sangha by constantly living these four principles of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, enriching yourself and others.

So much of suffering is avoided just by becoming aware of the root patterns. How many of you feel, 'The moment I catch my root patterns, it has no powers, because the moment it repeats in me again, I just catch it.' How many of you feel this and think, 'I want to help others to come out of their root patterns?' That is all this sangha is. Even if you sit in the train, you can do this, help people come out of their root patterns. If anyone comes in your breathing space, give them the gift of finding their root thought pattern. Only then are you a moving storehouse of ananda. Wherever you go, you go on giving, giving and giving.

How many of you feel that you spent years just to find this root thought pattern? If you would have found just this root thought pattern, you would have been out of it! This is our responsibility. Create an ambience where people can find their root thought pattern, do completion and get out of it. Flower, flower, flower, go on flowering! That is the real service. Giving food, giving education – all this is service, no doubt. But authentic service is this - helping every individual to find the root thought pattern of suffering and helping them get out of it. Help them, more and more. As I told you, you will have less than ten patterns at the most.

Usually, when I see your subtle body, I can see your weight. For all of you, for your weight, there cannot be more than five knots, five patterns. Some

Authentic service is helping every individual to find their root thought pattern of suffering and helping them get out of it.

may have six or seven, but not more than that. Even if you find one, all the others will suddenly lose their stiffness. See, the one knot you find will completely lose power over you. With this, the other knots also lose 30% or 40% of their power, because the knots support each other. If you lose the lust knot, the fear knot too will drop by forty percent. Jealousy and attention knots will drop by eighty percent. So by the time you complete with three-four knots, you are free!

In our community, everyone should only talking in this language. The language of spiritual strength is cognizance. The language of cognizance is spiritual strength. Take responsibility, take responsibility and continue to take responsibility. Without taking responsibility, even your breathing can kill you. But when you take responsibility, nothing can kill you, because you have stretched the point of death. It is inauthenticity that is afraid of death, not authenticity. Making millions of people feel and experience this - 'I am the favorite inheritor of the cosmos,' this is our sangha, this is our mission!

Apply these four tattvas. It can solve every problem you have and can make you live in your peak, in your best! The rituals we do should be authentic, the deities we create should be authentic, the yoga we do should be authentic, the kriyas we teach should be authentic, the claims we make should be authentic and we should authentically deliver the claims we make. People should be authentically enriched in every way. In each city, even if a few people vibrate with this high frequency, the sangha happens just like that. Think continuously in this language, in this format and with these satyas, think with these tattvas.

So, the essence is this: create the ambience inside you for you to practice integrity and authenticity, and create an ambience around you for people to live integrity and authenticity. You should prove to them

with your actions that when they approach you, you will only create an ambience for integrity and authenticity.

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

It is inauthenticity that is afraid of death, not authenticity.

When all the creative knowledge available in the universe, all the natural resources available in the universe, and all the extraordinary powers available in the universe, when all three of them are at your disposal, only then you experience the truth, 'brahmanyam bahuputrataam', I am the favorite inheritor of the cosmos!

I welcome you all with my love and respects.

Completion is the basis for all the four tattvas. It is continuous tireless completion, which creates the basis for the higher level practices. Now, the real life starts!

Please understand, when you try to find the root thought pattern of suffering, you have to go back to the earliest memory, of age three, two or one – the earliest memory. But the completion will not happen if you just work on that one incident; you need to complete all the impacts of that root thought pattern, every incident.

Please understand, when you find the root thought pattern of suffering, you have to go back to the earliest memory of childhood. Then you rewind, step by step by step, incident by incident, until today. A continuous tireless completion process creates the basis for higher level practices.

Please listen, only when you are complete, extraordinary powers will express in you, like those that Mahanarayana Upanishad describes: 'shreeshcha pushtishcha keertimchaanrnyataam brahmanyam bahuputrataam!'

When all these three are available at your disposal - all the creative knowledge available in the universe, all the natural resources available in the universe, and all the extraordinary powers available in the universe - when all three of them are at your disposal, only then you experience the truth. 'brahmanyam bahuputrataam', I am the favorite inheritor of the cosmos! I am very clear. I can authentically say with integrity, that all these three are at my disposal. Please be very clear, it is completion which forms the basis for me to share and transmit the experience of 'I am the favorite inheritor of the cosmos' to you. So go on completing - complete, complete, complete.

I have a question here: 'Swamiji, how do we know that we are complete?' You will know when you are complete! If you have a doubt, you are not complete. Go on completing with every single pattern, with every single person. If you are not able to reach out to that person, catch the mirror. Do svapoornatva, sit with yourself. Go on and on and on, pattern by pattern, layer by layer. Take it out, take it out, take it out!

So, all the 'brahmanyam bahuputrataam'' program participants please listen, this is a very important instruction for you. Completion has to be done, through the prarabdha. When you find the root thought pattern of suffering, work does not end there. That is where work starts. Work starts there! The completion has to be done throughout. You have two months – sixty full days. Take the commitment that for at least five hours a day, you are going to spend with the mirror doing svapoornatva.

Part 3: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!_English_part_3.md

Then I can say that you will be ready for the next level. For at least five hours, you are going to sit with mirror. Because, for many people, you will not be able to find them in your life, to go back and do completion with them!

Please listen, the beauty of your consciousness is that it has an innate intelligence to unclutch from anything, by its very quality. That is why time heals suffering, whatever may be the suffering. See, time has the quality of unclutching you constantly. Vivekananda very beautifully says, 'Do not worry at all. Even if you don't renounce, maya will make you renounce.' When the time flows over you, it naturally makes you renounce!

In Buddhism they call it 'kshanikavada'. It means that if you just keep a cloth in an air-tight container, nothing touches it, it does not move, it is there in the air-tight container for ten years; after ten years if you just take the cloth out; it'll be piece-piece! It would have disintegrated, decomposed and lost its original state. What is the reason for this? Because no weather is allowed to work on it, there is no wear and tear, nothing. But even then, it will lose its original state. Because, 'time' is a solid mass! Please understand, time is solid, it works on every object. By nature, time works on your mind and continues to heal you, unclutch you. You just need to remember time's ability to clean your inner mirror. How many of you are cognizing what I am

The beauty of your consciousness is that by its very quality, it has an innate intelligence to unclutch from anything.

Listen. Time is literally a wiper for your inner mirror. The inner mirror that you carry, even if it gets dusted by incompletion, the dust settles which because of your incompletion - time acts as a mirror to wipe it. The flow of time wipes the dusts and the mirror is again shinning.

Hatred towards memorizing or by-hearting starts when you stop believing that the mind is a natural cleanser. In the young age, you did not have the intelligence, you do not remember that there is something called time which is a natural cleanser. It cleanses you naturally. It helps you to reflect on things naturally. Naturally, time cleanses you. That is why we say in a colloquial sense, 'Time heals everything'. Time does not heal, time cleanses! Because of that cleaning, you feel that it is healed. But actually, it is not healed, it is just cleaned, pushing it aside, moving it aside.

When in your life for the first time, did you have the fear that time may not clean your inner space naturally? That you may not have the quality of reflecting, as an innate intelligence? Maybe when you started memorizing your tables! 2 x 2 is 4, 2 x 3 is 6, 2 x 4 is 8! When you started memorizing the tables, your teacher would have pressurized you - 'You have an exam tomorrow!' And until today, you would be sitting with that foolish cricket, or Facebook! You don't know how time passes on Facebook! I can tell you, for kids it is an extraordinary addiction!

Listen. Maybe when you started by-hearting, memorizing, and you had the pressure of the exam, or your parents feeding negative ideas, 'You won't make it', 'You can't do it". That is the time you start forgetting that your innate intelligence can by-heart, memorize, restore and reclaim any information that comes in front of your inner space.

Listen! I am making a long statement. Listen! Your inner space has an innate intelligence to hold, store, capture, reclaim and restore any information presented in front of you. Clear? When you can capture all your sufferings and keep them until the age of fifty and relive the same thing, why can't you capture the school syllabus? No! You capture so vividly - who has beaten you, who has scolded you!

How many of you vividly remember some of these incidents from your young age? Raise your hand. When you can cognize this information, why are you not able to cognize the syllabus? I can cognize this so clearly. But of course, fortunately in my case, I can also cognize the syllabus!

Please listen, you are able to cognize these kind of spicy, chilly incidents, but not the other information you studied as syllabus or as part of your curriculum or education; that you are not able to remember or recollect. Why? Then look in, there is somewhere a hatred for restoring that information, for storing, reclaiming and restoring!

Please listen! I am using the word 'restoring'. You may ask for the difference between storing and restoring. Many of the things that you studied in the school - you store it, reclaim it for the examination, pen it down, but never restore it. And you dump it, 'The examination is over. O god, I should not

The flow of time wipes the dust of incompletion from your inner mirror, and the mirror is again shinning.

remember this anymore!' I know people even go wash their head and take a head bath. After the examination, you go and take a head bath! 'Let it all go away!'. That is where the pattern starts in your system, that storing information, reclaiming it and restoring it is difficult.

In Vedic tradition, the education always happened through shravana, listening. In Sanskrit we have a very beautiful word - 'eka-sandha-grahi'. There is eka-sandha-grahi, dvi-sandha-grahi, tri-sandha-grahi and buddhu. eka-sandha-grahi means listening once and repeating it. dvi-sandha-grahi means listening twice and repeating it. tri-sandha-grahi means listening thrice and repeating it. And you are not allowed to listen for a fourth time! If you are not able to repeat after three times as a tri-sandha-grahi, you are called buddhu (fool) and you will not be allowed to sit when a master takes the sessions. You will be given a prayaschitta, a technique to restore your integrity. You have to go and sit with the river, and listen to the sound of the river. You have to sit with a bamboo grove and listen to the sound of the bamboo. You have to sit with a breeze and listen to the sound of the breeze. The training for listening - shravana, is given to you.

How many of you feel that you were able to reclaim for your examination, but you did not restore it? Raise your hand! This is because you have been given a wrong idea, that your mind only has a certain amount of capacity, like Gmail, email and all your mail memory storage! What some gigabyte, megabyte? How much does Gmail give, 25 gigabytes? But you need to know that your brain is not hardware, where the gigabyte memory is restricted to the size and shape available; it is software for the cosmic memory! Listen, your brain is not hardware, restricting at a certain gigabyte megabyte memory level. It is a high speed connection with access to the whole cosmic memory. This shift has to happen!

It is very unfortunate that you have been given the wrong cognizance that if you memorize this much of material, you will not be able to memorize more. The information is considered as a volume that makes memorizing seem difficult. It is not volume; your brain is not restricted by the volume of the information. You just need to raise the bandwidth of your internet connection. Clear? So you need to heal the wrong cognizance that you have been given. Find out - who first taught you, whether it was your school or a teacher or parents or uncle, who taught you that you will not be able to remember if the information volume increases? Somebody would have given this cognizance to you. Find that out. Who gave you that cognizance, that wrong cognizance? Heal that wrong cognizance. How many of you understand that you have been given this wrong cognizance? Clear? It is a wrong cognizance!

The ability to store, reclaim and restore is not dependant on the volume you handle. How many of you are mind-boggled by the amount of information I handle? Whether it is in my morning satsang or in my administration, you are mind-boggled by the amount of information I handle? With authenticity and integrity, keeping Kalabhairava as witness, I tell you. I don't have memory. I just have a high speed internet connection! I have a back office called hiranyagarbha, where the whole thing is stored. Where every possibility is stored,

Your brain is not hardware, restricting at a certain gigabyte-megabyte memory level. It is a high speed connection with access to the whole cosmic memory.

and just necessary information is directly accessed and shared. If you have given even a small bit of information, like who spoke about me, where, to whom and how it travelled, after twenty years you can get that information very clearly from me, exactly when it is required. And the fellow who gave me the information would have forgotten it!

I am getting a note from my disciple, saying, 'It may also be that we don't like that subject and don't want to remember that information anymore. And also that it is not going to be useful in life anymore.'

Listen, even this question has the underlying current of 'volume'. There are millions of things which you don't need, but you keep it in your house. Am I right? When you can keep so many things which you know you are not going to use at all in your house, then why do you think that you cannot keep the information that you don't want, in your brain? I know my grandmother - even after a mixer was available in my house, she had kept some seven grinding stones in the house, in a line on the veranda. I used to ask, 'Why are you keeping this when we have a mixer?' She used to reply, 'In our house, there are so many girls. I have to give each one as dowry when they get married!'

How many of you have seen enough unnecessary things in your house? Why can't you also store information, even though it is not necessary? Is the doubt cleared?

When you don't practice aparigraha (austerity) with the solid objects, why do you practice aparigraha in ideas, concepts and memory? It is because you have been given a wrong cognizance - the volume concept of memory. Memory has no volume! You only need a high-speed internet connection, meaning the complete inner space. The inner space which is in total completion has access to any information in the cosmos!

The psychologist Jung says very clearly in his theories of psychoanalysis - when your inner space is in restful awareness, ninety eight percent of what happens around you is consciously cognized. If not, only two percent is consciously cognized. And he says that it is always either two percent, or ninety eight percent, there is no in-between! Unfortunately, he had not seen a single enlightened being. So he was not able to say that something called one-hundred percent exists!

It is so unfortunate - he came all the way to Chennai in Bharat and from Chennai he started driving to Tiruvannamalai in a taxi, to have the darshan of the enlightened sage Ramana Maharshi. In those days, the taxi used to run on coal, where if it stops, the driver has to get down and rotate something and start the car.

When Jung started driving towards Tiruvannamalai, near Gingee his car stopped. I think it was in the 1940's. So the driver got down and tried to restart the car. Suddenly, Jung was hit by a panic attack. He started feeling, 'What if I go and see this master, and if some of my ideas and concepts are proved as wrong by him? I have to give up concepts on which I built my whole life! It is too much of vested interest. No!' He just put his hands on his head. The moment the vehicle started, he told the driver, 'Turn back, let us go back to Chennai.' He went back to Chennai and flew back to his country!

The inner space which is in total completion has access to any information in the cosmos.

That one missed meeting is the biggest loss that happened to western psychology. If that one meeting had happened, western psychology would have been speaking about life - jiva, ishwara and jagat in a totally different language. The way the western psychology cognizes the world, god-consciousness and humanity would have been completely different. Unfortunately, maya (Goddess of illusion) took care that his taxi stopped, she managed. Because one meeting with Ramana Maharishi would have been enough!

A persons like Jung had done so much of research on the mind, he was naturally very sensitive. He would have been just floored by the presence of Ramana Maharshi, and western psychology would have been completely different. It is like the stories we have in Hindu tradition - when your Rahu (maleficent planet) is in its peak, he will never allow you to go to Guru. Even if you go to Guru, he will lie down as a snake on the path and see to it that you are driven out. So the Rahu of the western psychology was in its peak, and did not allow Jung to meet Ramana Maharshi.

Jung's biography says, 'He was in the south, within two hours' distance.' He could have reached Ramana Maharshi. He was in Bharat for three months, but he avoided (meeting him). From Gingee to Tiruvannamalai, it is now only forty give minutes, but in those days, it took two hours. I am reading out from his biography. I have read some of the letters where he describes the incident - 'My car stopped near Gingee, and I had a panic attack. And I felt, if some of my ideas with which I built my whole life and am teaching are disproved by Ramana Maharshi's presence, it is too much vested interest to alter for me and my followers!' Because, he had at least ten thousand people following his theology and the theories he built. Psychology is nothing but another of religion, just like communism is another religion - worshipping no God!

The statement Jung made is basically factual, truthful and right. When you are not in conscious, restful awareness, you only cognize two percent of the information! Listen! When you are in restful awareness, you cognize ninety eight percent of the information! If not, only two percent.

Listen! You cognize information and the concept of storing in your system, based on the concept of volume, 'If there is more volume, I am going to forget, or it is going to be a load.' No! If it is volume-based, I should have lost my brain long ago! I should have become imbalanced. How many of you feel that I am storing at least ten times the information you store, in my brain? At least ten times! Then I should have lost my brain! So understand, it is not volume, it is not quantity, it is quality. Listen! Capturing, storing, reclaiming and restoring - this process does not operate on the tattva of quantity, it operates on the tattva of quality.

So the first thing you need to do is go back to the root pattern. Who gave you this wrong cognizance? How many of you already tracked who gave you this wrong cognizance? Great! If not, sit and contemplate, do manana. Catch who gave you this wrong cognizance, that this process happens based on volume, NO! There is no such thing like this - if you have two thousand files, you will forget things, so we ourselves better throw away two

Listen. Capturing, storing, reclaiming and restoring information - this process does not operate on the tattva of quantity, it operates on the tattva of quality.

hundred unnecessary files out, and make space for two hundred new files. It is wrong cognizance! Any amount of files can be handled; you just need a powerful inner space of completion and restful awareness.

Understand, when somebody comes to meet me, I can literally repeat verbatim all the meetings that they had with me and whatever was shared. People who live around me can understand what I am saying. Verbatim I can repeat every piece of information. Many times, the words which they wanted to say, but did not say - this also gets recorded! That is a mystical power, forget about that. But this memory is not related to mysticism or mystical power. It is simple completing the inner space.

There is a question – 'Is Swamiji agreeing with Jung's theory that it is either two percent or ninety eight percent based on restful awareness, and nothing in between?'

YES! It is either two percent or ninety eight percent. There is nothing in between. That is the truth. That is the truth for all common men. Of course, when you become enlightened, you will have one-hundred percent. That is very rare, an exception. Other than the exceptions, as a rule, it is either two percent, or ninety eight percent, that's all. There is no in-between!

Listen. Go back to the root thought pattern, when you have been given the wrong cognizance - that our memory functions based on volume. And complete with that person who gave you the wrong cognizance. If you are not able to reach out to the person, sit with the mirror and do the svapoornatva, and complete with the wrong cognizance!

Understand, you have to complete with each wrong cognizance that is responsible for limiting you and making you powerless. Limiting you and making you powerless! A strong, clear, right understanding about memory is a basic requirement for any successful leader. You becoming a leader by accident, by fluke, or by destroying others, is different. But if you really prove your capability and become a leader, you need this wide memory. A wide memory is a quality required for any successful leader.

So listen! Today, you will spend time in going back to the root pattern, of when you have been given that wrong cognizance, that memory works based on volume. Capturing, storing, reclaiming and restoring do not function on the basis of the volume of information; it is not limited Gmail storage. Your brain is not a storage space; it is an opening for connection. You need to just develop the bandwidth of your net connection.

You do not need to expand the storage space. If you think from the angle of expanding the storage space, what will you do? You will try to create more and more storage space by using some technique, which will only create stress in your brain. Unfortunately, you will remember all the unpleasant things of your life, and all those things will come and occupy the extra storage space that you create. You will remember what your wife said, what your husband said, what your motherin-law said, what your father-in-law said - you will vividly remember all those fights; but you will not

A wide memory is a quality required for any successful leader.

remember your bank balance! No, really! How many of you cognize that you do not remember all the vital information - like your blood group, bank balance, some close people's cellphone number, or the emergency cellphone number, your passport number - you don't remember any of that. But you vividly remember all the fights that you had with your mother in law, daughter-in-law, son-in-law and all your in-laws? Raise your hand. Because, you think that memory is based on volume.

Memory does not function on the basis of volume; it functions on the basis of restful awareness, the quality of your inner space, the quality of your inner space! Listen! When you reach completion, your inner space cognizes everything! Everything means everything. Cognizing happens for whatever is happening around you. Cognizing happens with your innate completion. Completion is responsible for your cognition.

Yesterday there was a big discussion among our ashramites, on the commitments and completion session. Some of the biggest points were this: Why does a certain type of response and reaction happen to us? Who makes the decision? Why do we react in the way we react?

See, each person responds differently, each person reacts to things differently. For example, in some incident of your life, if you start feeling that you are dirty, and for various reasons, that stays in you and goes on reminding you, and a certain kind of a distance is developed with your body. A certain kind of an untouchable feeling is developed with your body.

Yesterday the main discussion in the ashramites' session was why we choose to respond or react in a certain way, in certain situations. What is the reason for our response? Please listen, this is the answer - casual curiosity, nothing else. Neither sanchita nor agamya or prarabdha. These

three karmas are not the reason for behaving in a certain way. It is simple, casual curiosity. You would have seen your mother responding that way, you would have seen your father responding that way, you would have seen your friend responding that way, and with casual curiosity you collect that information. That's all - you start responding in the same way! Unfortunately, once you show a certain response, you get affiliated with it, identify with it, and decide that this is the way you should respond. This is your individual identity. Later on, moving from one type of response to another needs completion.

How many of you cognize the casual curiosity as a tattva? Please raise your hands. Now, it is your responsibility to make this tattva into satya. Dig out; dig out all the situations where you started responding out of casual curiosity. Today, you will do this as homework.

I have a question from a disciple, 'If it is casual curiosity, why does it make such a big impact on us?' See, when you make the first decision, it does not make such a big impact on you! Even yesterday, the ashramite who was sharing the feeling of 'being dirty' that she carries, this decision did not make a huge impact on her, when she first made the decision to feel dirty. But after that, she gets affiliated to that way of responding. And after that, she continued with the same way of responding,

Memory does not function on the basis of volume; it functions on the basis of restful awareness. When you reach completion, your inner space cognizes everything.

because of her affiliation to that way of responding. Because of the continuity, that first decision made a huge impact.

Understand, your decision to be a sannyasini made a big impact on you because you continue to be a sannyasini,. If you had run away after the third day in the ashram,, the decision of becoming a sannyasini would not have made a big impact on you. Continuity makes the impact of your first decision bigger. Clear?

Listen. Success writes the history. So it is the success and the continuous reactions you do, based on which you look back and cognize the impact of that casual curiosity. Got it? If the ashramite who was sharing yesterday has come out of that suffering, if she did not react in the same way of feeling dirty the second time, that would not have made a big impact on her, it would have died down as a casual curiosity, and she will not remember that now with so much of impact. The continuous support you give to the casual curious reaction makes that as agamya. agamya means intense casual curiosity. When you bring the word intense, the casual is taken away. Intense curiosity leads to casualty. Clear? When you are affiliated to that response as your own, there comes the possibility of the deeper impact and pattern.

So for today, dig out the root pattern where you have been taught that memory functions based on volume. Are you clear? Go back and dig out the root pattern when you have been made to cognize that capturing, storing, claiming and restoring information (memory), functions based on the concept of volume. Clear?

The second tattva is this - why do you respond to certain situations or have a certain cognizance. Find out the source of your casual curiosity. This is the second tattva. Finally, complete with both the tattvas.

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

It is continuity that makes the impact of your first decision bigger. hen you are affiliated to a response as your own, there comes the possibility of deeper impact and pattern based on it.

Listen! Many times you would have heard people say, 'However much you listen, only when you practice will you achieve it'. But I say, 'However much you try to practice, only if you listen will you achieve it! Only when you listen does practicing start!'

Let's enter into today's satsang. Listen! The first statement I wanted to make today is this: Usually, many teachers say again and again – 'However much you listen, only if you practice it, you will achieve it.' I wanted to reverse it. However much you try to practice, only if you listen, will you achieve it! Listen! However much you try to practice, only if you listen, you will achieve it!

Many times you would have heard people saying, however much you listen, only when you practice, you will achieve it. But here I am saying however much you try to practice - only if you listen, you will achieve it. How many of you cognize what I am saying? You should have observed the word, 'try to practice it'. It means that without listening, however much you practice, it will only be trying to practice, not practicing! Only when you listen, practicing starts.

Listen! Today, I am going to share some of the tattvas, truths about integrity. I wanted to define integrity once more. Integrity means

honoring the words you give to you and to others, as your life. Integrity is neither morality nor ethics - it is beyond both.

Listen. Only when you utter the word 'I', you exist. Until you remember the word 'I' in your inner space, you do not exist. You may say - 'No, no, no! When I sleep in the night, I don't remember 'I' in deep sleep, but when I come back, I remember 'I'. But I see, I existed throughout the night!'

No! Your body existed throughout the night. You have not existed. Listen! This argument is not going to win. It is not right. When you did not remember you through the night, you did not exist, only your body existed. For example, I went to Kumbh Mela last month and returned to Bidadi. Now, just because Bidadi ashram existed for the last few days, it does not mean that I have existed here even when I was in Kumbha Mela. Only the Bidadi ashram existed. Just because your body existed, it does not mean that you have existed too. When you remember the word 'I', only then do you exist. You exist only when you remember the word 'I'! Everything starts with the word. Everything starts with a declaration. Everything starts with a commitment. So listen!

A clearly expressed word is fulfillment. The word which is perverted and hurting yourself is guilt. The word which is hurting others is violence. The word which goes on expanding you is desire. The word which constantly keeps you in completion and expands you, is integrity.

Listen, if you just decide from this moment – 'I will honor the words I utter to me and to others, as my life,' the inner thoughts, the inner chattering, will drastically reduce! A breakthrough will happen in your thinking process. Because, the moment you become aware that you have to complete or fulfill every word you utter to you and to others, you

will become aware of your thinking and your every thought; you will know if a thought is coming from your fear or greed or jealousy or ego or arrogance. And you will immediately complete it.

Completion can be done in so many ways - either by working with the person who is related with the root pattern with which you are suffering, or by catharsis (primal sound releasing methods) or by unclutching. All three can be used for completion, based on the depth of the pattern that you are carrying. You can try all these three on every pattern that you carry. I tell you, if you are the only person responsible for the pattern, sit with the mirror and start svapoornatva. I tell you, the mirror should be your atmamoorti - your personal deity, when you begin your sadhna (spiritual practice). All the Gurukul kids and ashramites, will have the mirror as your deity until you finish svapoornatva. All devotees - you can even choose which deity you want to carry as your ishtadevata (chosen deity) only after you complete your svapoornatva. Until then, the mirror is your deity. Because, you need to constantly do svapoornatva (completion) during the initial level. Many times, you do not even know the commitments you give to yourself out of fear, and you go on trying to fulfill them. This only leads to deeper and deeper fears. Many of the people for whom you are giving your life don't need your life, they just need a psychiatric pill! Many patterns for which you are giving your life

Only when you utter the word 'I', you exist. Until you remember the word 'I' in your inner space, you do not exist.

do not need your life, they just need a few minutes of completion!

Just bring integrity in your thinking; you will see that so much of extraordinary powers express in you. Only when you bring integrity in your thinking, your bio-memory will stop feeling that it is matter and stop asking for food from the external world. If you have tried 'The nirahara samyama' (technique to live healthily without solid food) and failed, understand - you have not brought integrity in your thinking. Bring integrity in your thinking. Your bio-memory becomes so soft, so subtle. It stops asking for food from the external world and directly takes food from space.

When you bring integrity in your thinking, you do not waste your inner space in making more and more complications. Continuing to make more and more complications is agamya, accumulating karmas. If you stop making more and more complications, you will start exhausting even the complications you made earlier, which are called prarabdha. The complications you already made are called prarabdha, the complications you are making are called agaamya. Continuing to make complications without even knowing it is maya.

The complications you made are prarabdha, the complications you are making are agamya and not even having the knowledge that you are making complications is maya.

Constantly making complications means you do not listen to your heart's cry. I really want the entrance of all the main halls to be painted like a ear. When you see it, you should remember that you are walking into the ear! So that you know that by entering into this door, you commit to listen.

And I also wanted all the ashramites, disciples and devotees to have rudraksha, just to remind you to listen. Listen! Listen! Because in Vedic tradition, the ear-rings are given for the initiated ears, the ears which have heard the mantras, listened to the mantras. The ear-rings are only given to the ears which are ready to listen. Piercing the ears is a religious ritual in Vedic tradition. The child is taught to listen, and the child gives the commitment, 'From now on, I start listening.'

Listen! Listening to yourself, constantly is ajapa japa. Being in the completion with yourself is unclutching. Being in integrity with the master is feeling connection.

Listen. When you sit to listen to you, when you constantly check if you are integrated with you, you will see that all that your inauthenticity will be exposed to you. Naturally, you will find a solution for you. Lack of integrity is nothing but putting all your problems under the carpet and postponing, without finding a solution. Today if you have a certain incompletion and if you think, 'I'll do the completion tomorrow, now let me push it under the carpet, I have other work to finish in the next few hours,' - I tell you, the next few hours is going to add more incompletion! And more things are going to be pushed under the carpet. Listening to you is the first step to spirituality!

When you bring integrity in your thinking, you do not waste your inner space in making more and more complications.

People again and again ask me, 'The moment I sit for meditation or unclutching, I have more thoughts! I have more confusion, I have more problems. Next time, I don't want to sit for meditation or unclutching. Swamiji, what should I do?'

How will you not have thoughts or confusion? Unclutching is not like switching off the electricity to your house. It is like cleaning, sweeping and wiping your house. It is not like electricity that you will just switch off and be unclutched. No! It is like cleaning, sweeping and wiping. First, listen to your inner space! That is the first step to meditation, to life. Listen!!

Constantly listening to your own inner space is the beginning of integrity. If your inner space says that there is nothing more to listen, if only silence is there, then that is the end of integrity. You have achieved integrity. When you start listening to your inner space, you start integrity and when you listen to only silence from your inner space, you have achieved integrity. As long as you are hearing something from your inner space, it is lack of integrity. Go on listening. Even while you are sitting, driving, talking or walking, listen to you. Also listen to you, when you are talking! It is listening to you that is going to bring integrity to you!

Listen! Listen! Untiringly listen! Intensely bring integrity to your life. As I said, however much you try to practice, only if you listen will you achieve it. I'm changing the statement that you heard from so many people, 'How much ever you listen, only if you practice you will achieve it.' I tell you, how much ever you try to practice, only if you listen will you achieve it.!

Listen. I tell you, only if you see the results of the spiritual truths in

your life - you will be inspired to live them, you will be inspired to make them as satyas. All your doubts are nothing but your fight with the tattvas. So if you achieve the result of even one tattva, you will start living all four tattvas. You will be inspired. You don't know how inspired I am! I am going crazy with these four tattvas, twenty-four hours! I am looking into myself and saying, 'Can I enrich in any other way? Can I enrich in any other way?'

Today, keeping Kalabhairava as witness, I commit with you that I will directly pen down the akashic readings, and it will be published in my own handwriting! I will do it whenever I find time.

So from today, I commit with you guys - Kalabhairava will download the akashic records and just pen it down. And I promise, it will be in His handwriting. It will be in His handwriting. So from today I'll be continuously writing, whenever I find time.

So now, we will have the next breakthrough. You guys can expect pages and pages of akashic records, downloaded in the own handwriting of Kalabhairava, Mahakala, every day. And whoever wants to receive the handwriting of Kalabhairava in your email, please mail us. After every download of akashic records of writing, I'll just press a button and mail it to all you guys. Enjoy!

Constantly listening to your own inner space is the beginning of integrity.

There's no end for integrity, there's no end for authenticity, there's no end for responsibility; There's no end for enriching. It is eternal for everyone. You are expanding from your level and I'm expanding from my level, that's all.

I tell you, guys, when you stretch yourself to this level, Kalabhairava will start writing through any one of you. It is not my wholesale agency. I'm not a wholesale agent. I'm not the sole owner, the sole proprietor. All you need to do, is have this level of authentic dedication to enriching.

How many of you were shocked when you heard that I am thinking and working on how many more ways I can enrich others? So listen, when you create the same shock for others, Kalabhairava will express through you. That's all.

Continue to live and radiate the four tattvas. I tell you, only when you see the result of first tattva, you will have the joy and inspiration to live all the tattvas. Continuously live it. I tell you, it will be just a joy to live this satyas. It will be a joy to contribute to the world. It will be just a joy to contribute, to enrich. Listen, unless you enjoy living these tattvas, you will not be able to contribute. You will not be able to enrich others. Enjoy living these tattvas.

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

One of the big gest problems human beings have is that you love to be successful, but you deeply believe that you are a failure! Understand, some of your actions may be a failure, some of your decisions or dimensions may be a failure, but you are never a failure, because you are still breathing!

Today, I will expand on interconnectivity of these four tattvas. I will expand on how, when you start being integrated, so much of inner space is available for you. This naturally brings authenticity in you, and makes you take responsibility, and continue to enrich yourself and others.

Listen! When you start thinking with integrity, you will know your strong beliefs. One of the biggest problems human beings have is this you love to be successful, but you deeply believe that you are a failure. Constantly, every one of you loves to be successful, but you deeply believe that you are a failure. This is one of the biggest paradoxes. This shows the lack of integrity in your thinking. How many of you cognize this? You love to be successful, but you deeply believe that you are a failure? That is one of the biggest problems. That is one of the biggest paradox that human beings suffer from.

Understand, some of your actions may be a failure, some of your

decisions or dimensions may be a failure, but Y O U are never a failure, because you are still breathing!

When you are inauthentic, when you have lack of integrity for your work, be there and take the heat; take responsibility. When you have not lost the inspiration to take responsibility, nothing is lost. I tell you, if you take responsibility, even death cannot come near you. Death waits for you to complete your responsibility. So for anybody who wants to live long, just practice authentic responsibility. When you take responsibility with authenticity, consciousness starts growing more intensely in the body! Shrinking does not happen. Consciousness growing in your body is enlightenment!

Please listen, something has to grow in your body - either life or death. You cannot be in neutral gear; you cannot say pause! No. Life has no pause button. It has fast-forward, it has rewind, it has play button, it even has a stop button, but it has no pause button. Either life has to grow in your body or death has to grow in your body. The inauthenticity which you entertain, is death for you.

I tell you, even in the most critical moments of the organization, I take decisions completely based on being authentic. Authenticity is my strategy plan. Pick up authenticity as your strategy plan, in every moment of your life. Whether it is to do

You love to be successful, but you deeply believe that you are a failure - this is one of the biggest paradoxes, one of the biggest problems that human beings suffer from.

with health, creativity, solving relationship problems, creating wealth or achieving inner fulfillment, have authenticity as your strategy plan.

Understand, others' anyakara about you has two dimensions - how they perceive you, and how they want you! How they perceive you now, and how they want you to be in their life. For example, they may perceive you as a fool and a cheat, but they may want you as intelligent and authentic! When you take responsibility for both parts of others' anyakara, life just oozes out of your ananda gandha, your blissful inner space.

Please listen: if you want your skin to shine, your eyes lit and your body radiating grace and joy, take responsibility for others' anyakara in both directions. If others perceive you as a cheat and fool, don't be angry. It means that you have not raised yourself in some way.

I tell you, the one who takes responsibility for the whole world's anyakara IS God. God takes responsibility for the anyakara of even atheists. That is why when they say God never helps, He never helps them, and makes sure that He fulfills even their anyakara!

Listen. Taking responsibility for what others perceive and what others want just makes life ooze, explode and express through you. Go on doing manana, contemplation. Catch every root pattern with which you suffer! Go on doing manana. Let every decision be out of authenticity and enriching, and not out of anything else, neither fear nor greed. Do not function out of any other cognizance other than authenticity and responsibility. Continuously complete.

The first thing to do completion is for you to be in your regular routine. You have to grease the machine every day! Completion is like lubricating

the machine. You cannot stop the machine and lubricate. The machine has to be running when you lubricate. You cannot say, 'Let us stop the machine and the whole factory. When you start it again, the heat is only going to increase. Only when the machine is running, can you find out if the lubrication is strong enough or not. So, the completion has to be done as part of your liferoutine. Not otherwise. The idea that you have to take off time to do completion is completely wrong. The machine has to be running and the lubrication has to be done continuously. Again and again I want to remind you - life has no training period! Only in the games do you have training and then the actual game. Life has no training period.

There was an eating competition in one village. There were about twenty fellows who were participating, and everyone started eating – five hundred idlis, fifty banana, a hundred liters of juice! One fellow came first; the second fellow missed by just one idli. Everybody asked him, 'Why did you miss the prize just by one idli?' He said, 'Everything went well when I was doing the rehearsal this morning, but I somehow missed it now!'

So if you are waiting for training in life, you miss actual life. Life is not like football, volleyball and cricket, where the training ground is different

Life has no training period. If you are waiting for training in life, you miss actual life.

and the playing ground is different. Life is like an eating competition - training is living! If you want separate training, you will fail in the game.

With integrity, you will literally clean your inner space of the constant unwanted beliefs that you carry, like the strong belief that you will be a failure. This continuous belief leads you towards failure! When you start thinking with integrity, you will diagnose those self-fulfilling negative prophecies that you constantly give yourself.

How many of you behave like a self-fulfilling negative astrologer for yourself? You go on telling yourself, 'My time is not good, I will not be able to do anything,' and even after you do it, you start believing so strongly that you fulfill it. Each one of you is your own self-fulfilling negative astrologer. You are the astrologer for you, you are the trainer for you and you are the judge for you! You first give the self-fulfilling prophecy, 'I am a failure'. Then you train yourself for that, so that even the Guru should not make you successful, by mistake! And you wait for those kinds of responses from society. You do not bother about the support you receive, but you are haunted by the discouragement you get, because you are training yourself to be a failure!

So who is the decision-maker in your life? First, you are an astrologer who declares that you are a failure. Then, you are a trainer who trains you to be a failure, and if failure does not come even then, you become a judge and declare that you are a failure!

When even a small thing happens, you immediately declare failure. How many of you authentically cognize that you do this? We go on doing this. The first thing to do is to declare your integrity, not your failure. Declare your integrity. When you start thinking with integrity,

you will diagnose your own self-fulfilling negative prophecies.

When you are about to get into the car, you declare to yourself that you are going to have an accident. Then while you drive, you train yourself to continuously sleep. Even after that, an accident does not happen but maybe you just hit one corner of the road and the car stops. Nothing happens to you or the car, but you say, 'I told you that accident will happen! Now see what happened!' The power of integrity will teach you to diagnose these selffulfilling negative prophecies.

Sometimes, you take up failure as a self-sympathy creating mechanism. Or you think that you have to work for success, but failure is natural! How many of you think that you have to work for success, but failure comes naturally? Raise your hand. NO! Success is natural; you have to work for failure. Bring integrity; you will understand that success is the natural flow of your life.

Krishna says very beautifully, 'By nature, the senses are tuned to be extrovert' - active, alive and creating. I give you a different interpretation. 'Extrovert' is not something negative. Extrovert senses will always be alive, creative, active and contributing. All great creative persons took the responsibility for their extrovert senses.

The first thing to do is to to declare your integrity, not your failure. Bring integrity; you will understand that success is the natural flow of your life.

Listen, listen! The senses are extrovert, flowing naturally. By nature, they function towards achieving. They naturally flow towards achieving. It means that are programmed by nature to be successful. The natural programming is for you to be successful. Lack of integrity allows the poison of self-fulfilling negative prophecies to grow in your system. I tell you, the first thing a human being needs to do is weed out all selffulfilling negative prophecies.

How many of you feel that you need to weed out the self-fulfilling negative prophecies you carry in you? Understand, the can be weeded out only when you are functioning in your daily routine. When you take time off, all those weeds will just disappear. Only when you are working tightly in your everyday routine, you will discover those selffulfilling false negative prophecies. How many of you are able to cognize this truth? Try to take off for few days; all those negative self-fulfilling prophecies will hide themselves in some unconscious decisions.

Listen! Not fulfilling your everyday commitments will only make the weeds hide behind your unconscious patterns. Vivekānanda is very very clear, yoga can happen in you, only along with responsible actions. Karma yoga does not happen without responsible actions.

Sometimes, you execute actions the whole day, but there is no feeling of responsibility for it!

In Tamil there is a proverb, 'naayikku velai illai, nikka neramum illai,' the dog has no job, but it does not have the time to even stand still! This is what action without responsibility is. How many of you authentically cognize that you are stuck with the pattern of action with no responsibility?

Sri Ramakrishna gives a very beautiful example - however much water you bring to your paddy field, if there are too many frog holes and rat holes, all the water will go and settle there. You will not have water for growing the paddy. The frog holes, rat holes, snake holes are the negative self-fulfilling prophecies. All the energy you bring, all the kundalini energy I pour into you, goes and settles there. Finally, there is no water! Neither can paddy grow, nor can Ganga water flow. Because for the entire twenty-four hours, you are weighed down and loaded with negative self-fulfilling prophecies.

The first thing a human being needs to know is how to weed out the negative self-fulfilling prophecies. Integrity makes you aware of negative self-fulfilling prophecies. Self-fulfilling negative prophecies are the iron chains tied to your leg. Nothing moves in your life, even if you are pushed. Just imagine an elephant whose legs are tied with chains and a big iron ball! It has to be pushed, and even then it moves with restriction. Self-fulfilling negative prophecies are like that. They are the weight on your inner space.

Integrity is the only way you can even find those negative self-fulfilling prophecies and weed them out. If you start looking in, you will naturally not give life to your negative self-fulfilling prophecies. If you start looking at your negative self-fulfilling

It is lack of integrity tat allows the poison of self-fulfilling negative prophecies to grow in your system.

prophecies even for ten days, they will die. Understand, a tree that has grown for a thousand years takes only a few minutes to die if you pour acid on its roots. Integrity is the acid that can destroy the weeds of negative self-fulfilling prophecies in you. Thinking with integrity removes the weeds of negativity.

You do not need courage to remove negativity, you just need awareness to remove negativity. The moment you think you need courage to remove negativity, you are caught in the wrong fight. You only need awareness to remove negativity. If you think you need courage, it is like bringing an atom bomb to fight with your shadow! If you throw an atom bomb, who is going to die? You are also going to die. You just need a torch to fight with your shadow, not an atom bomb. You just need the torch of integrity to fight your negativity.

If you have a strong idea or belief what you are doing is going to be a failure, the moment you think that it is a failure, it is a commitment and word you are giving to you. Do you understand? So if you give that word, you naturally have to fulfill it. Do you want to fulfill that word? No. Then tell yourself that I am not going to fulfill it. It means that whenever you have a thought*,* 'I am a failure,' you should know - this is a commitment I am making to me, and I have to honor it. You may say that it comes on its own. Then complete it! Consciously disown and complete with it.

If it comes back, do this again. How many times will it come back? Practice it. Your belief is not required; only your cognizance is required. Have you cognized theoretically? Now apply this mechanical process; then come back to me with the result. This is a homework for you. Practice this for 48 hours, cognizance this and get back to me.

'Athaatho brahma jijnaasa' - let us inquire into reality. With this clarity, let us enter. You neither need to believe my extreme nor your extreme. Let us inquire. Clear? How many of you did not try this earlier, after trying these four tattvas? It means you have not tried these four tattvas also. If you have driven from Bangalore to Mysore, you would have hit Ramanagara. But you sat in Bangalore and changed the name of your board to Mysore. Changing your name-board to Mysore does not mean you reached Mysore.

Understand, all of you carry that negative cognizance inside. Listen:

work not done plus valid reasons is not equivalent to work done!

The essence of the whole satsang is this. Integrity removes the self-fulfilling negative prophecies in your life, in your cognizance, in your inner space! When you start something new, if you decide to remove the negative cognizance, you will suddenly have the courage to grasp the whole scene.

Whenever you give a commitment, you will knowingly or unknowingly fulfill it. So complete it and say, 'No, I am not going to be this way, I am going to give the fulfillment as a cognition.' When you do this again and again, do you think it will come up again? If you do it, it will not come up again.

You do not need courage to remove negativity, you just need awareness to remove negativity.

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

Listen!

Bring integrity to you, you are always worthy of nice things! You don't need to achieve something to have nice things. Have the best things of the world as your lifestyle. Resting out of tiredness is not the best thing for you to have. Resting out of completion is the best thing for you to have!

Whenever you create anything, you carry the product you create in your heart. In the Vedic tradition, we call it as hridgarbha, 'carrying it in your heart and delivering it'. It is delivery by creativity! Whenever you deliver something by creating and carrying it in the heart, you will have extreme fulfillment in the heart.

Even giving birth to kids! For what do you give birth? It is because of the extreme fulfillment that they give, to your life. But giving birth to a movie or a painting or work of art is deeper fulfillment than having children. So, please listen! Giving birth to a movie is a spiritual practice. If it is done with awareness in an unclutched way, acting can become a process for enlightenment.

In Vedic tradition, we believe that all of us are actors. People get attached to the role they are playing, that is why they are suffering. If you are acting in an unclutched way, you will realize that life itself is nothing but acting. Acting can become a process for awareness.

Be aware of what you are carrying; by the time you deliver it from your heart, you will have tremendous fulfillment. I tell you, anything you give birth to from your heart, directly leads to spiritual enlightenment. Vedic tradition believes that life itself is acting. Done with awareness, acting can make you realize that you are beyond body and mind - the pure consciousness.

All 'THE nirahara samyama' participants, be very clear. Bring intensity to your integrity, authenticity and enriching. Let that become your bio-memory. Only then will your need for external support disappear. Your need for food, love and energy from outside - all three are bondage.

• G The need for food is the bondage with the physical world.
• G The need for love is the bondage with the emotional world.
• G The need for energy is the bondage with the spiritual world.

That is why at one level, the Master leads you to his formless form, where the energy is experienced from the very source. Your own atman is experienced as cosmos. Right now, don't bother about spiritual bondage; that can be freed at the last. First break these two bondages, the need for food and the need

Be aware of what you are carrying; by the time you deliver it from your heart, you will have tremendous fulfillment.

for love. Bring integrity and authenticity into your thinking. Your biomemory will stop asking for external sources.

You may wonder how integrity can help in nirahara samyama. I tell you, when you bring integrity into your thinking, you will realize that the constant feeling of tiredness and constant low energy is what makes you eat. The idea of negative energy is nothing but a negative weed. You have to take it out with integrity. Hunger is a negative weed. Human beings can live without hunger. Sorry if I hurt your logic, but what I am saying is true!

When you constantly think with integrity, all the air which you take inside is converted to energy - prana. I tell you, If all the air which goes in becomes energy by your bio-memory and your muscle memory, you don't need anything from outside. Your breathing will be very deep. You will have such a strong experience of fulfillment. The only thing that you need to do with this nirahara samyama is, somehow break the obstructions that the mind brings.

Listen! The mind will not directly bring an obstacle directly - like*, I am hungry.* It will bring up some other obstruction. But you know, you somehow need to catch it. Inauthenticity is like the demon Ravana.

Ravana did not come as himself to kidnap Sita. He came disguised as a sage, as a rishi. So your inauthenticity always comes up in some other way, as some other cognition.

When you start practicing integrity, you will weed out even hunger. Hunger and sleep are nothing but lack of integrity with your soul, with your consciousness. When you are with integrity with your consciousness, hunger and sleep will both suddenly disappear! Your

sleep will be just be samadhi. Even if you have a little hunger, it is just to run the body. Maybe once in a week you will eat, to maintain the body. I tell you from my own experience.

No animal has breakfast, lunch and dinner! Do you know any animal which has breakfast, lunch and dinner? They go hunting once in a week. Even if they do hunt, they leave it once they are done, they don't dump it inside. And not a single animal dies of obesity, even elephants! So bring integrity to your hunger.

Bring integrity to all the beliefs you carry about you. Bring integrity to all your habits, eating, drinking, talking. Infuse integrity in every activity. Bring integrity into how you feel about you. If you achieve something that you think is big, your mind will immediately say, 'I am now eligible for a nice rest, a nice treat and nice food!' Bring integrity to you. You are worthy of nice things, always! You don't need to achieve something to have nice things. Have the best things of the world as your lifestyle. Listen. Resting out of tiredness is N O T the best thing for you to have. Resting out of completion is the best thing for you to have.

Question: 'Swamiji, what do you mean by integrity to hunger? How do you bring integrity to hunger?'

Swamiji: Whenever you are hungry, whenever your

When you are with integrity with your consciousness, hunger and sleep will both suddenly disappear.

body asks for food, ask your body, 'What do you mean by hunger? What do you mean by bringing the thought that I am tired and I need food?' Just look in and see, is it real, or is it just lack of integrity? Maybe you are constantly uttering negative commitments constantly to yourself. Just because you uttered the words that you are hungry yesterday, you may also be doing the same thing today! Try to weed out and watch it for a few days. You will see that your hunger and you food intake drop drastically!

Just try this one technique, bring integrity to your eating, to your hunger. Every time you feel like eating, the first thing you will feel is that you are tired or hungry. But it may be actually be because of the visuals of food, smell of food, taste of food or remembrance of food. Listen. When I say bring integrity, I mean, let not hunger be a negative pattern in you. Remove, remove and remove this continuously. Then suddenly, you will see that the pattern-based hunger will disappear. Real hunger will come, which will be once in a week. I lived that life and that is why I am telling you!

When your saliva, visualization, smell, all of them come to the peak with awareness, amrita - nectar, happens in your system. That takes care of your hunger and everything. Unfortunately, when you eat, the saliva, visualization - everything comes together, but not awareness! If you eat once a week, all of them will come together to the peak, with awareness. If you are continuously eating, all the five senses will come together, but not awareness. That is why the nectar is not happening. If it comes together with awareness, nectar happens to you, amrita happens to you, and you feel so fulfilled.

Bring integrity to your hunger. Even for people who are not doing nirahara samyama or THE samyama or any samyama, just bring integrity

to your hunger. Just bring integrity, whenever you are tired, whenever you are sleepy. You will just see that your chronic fatigue disappears, and your quality of sleep changes.

Lack of integrity with your sleep is dreams. If you are in integrity with your sleep, there is no dream. You will have deep sleep and you will come of it like a flower. Your ability to rest is disturbed, because your eyes are loaded with heavy lights, and visualizations are forcibly sent into your inner space. The more the lights, the more the visualization, the more the visualization, the more you are tired, and eventually the quality of your sleep gets disturbed. I never ever feel that I need sleep! I lived life with just with inner light, not outer light. I always wanted our campus to be without artificial lights, with just the traditional torches, traditional lanterns. We will have it that way.

Question: - 'Is it possible to rest in samadhi without being enlightened?'

Listen! Enlightenment comes to you after you achieve all these things. Resting in samadhi does not need to be the pre-requisite. Start resting in samadhi today itself - the way you live, the way you radiate.

Any tiredness, hunger, low energy or powerlessness is lack of integrity. If you feel tired and hungry

Lack of integrity with your sleep is dreams. If you are in integrity with your sleep, there is no dream.

and then eat, it is an action out of incompletion. Even if you are not practicing nirahara, bring integrity to your hunger; it will reduce drastically. You will feel high energy. If you don't bring integrity to your thinking, to your mental patterns, niraahara will not be successful.

Even during pooja, all five senses does not come to their peak. pooja is a different process. But during eating, all five senses come to their peak. I tell you, bring integrity to your thinking again and again and again. Weed out all the powerless experiences, weak feeling experiences. Whenever you feel tired or weak, weed them out.

How many of you struggle with this pattern of tiredness and laziness, raise your hand? It is just lack of integrity. Be integrated to your soul. The soul can never have tiredness, consciousness can never have tiredness. That is the truth. Don't think, after enlightenment I will not have tiredness; now I have body, so I will have tiredness. What is this? Negative weed. Whether you realize or not, you are soul and consciousness.

There is no practice period. There is no training period. Just start living! From today, say I am

I tell you, best way to practice integrity is by taking up more and more responsibilities. Best thing to do is taking up ten responsibilities and maintain the integrity with time. Go on taking up more responsibility. The best thing I took up is giving kaavi (initiation into monkhood) to so many people. Now, I am responsible for all of them.

Constantly take up responsibilities that expose your lack of integrity to you. you Only when you form a team and take it up as a project, will your

inauthenticity be exposed to your inauthenticities. Cognize the lack of integrity and your selfishness.

In each center I can see, only when you take up a project, only when you work together, your lack of integrity will be exposed to you; your inauthenticity, your laziness, your tiredness, all your negative patterns will be exposed to you. sangha becomes dhamma. When you take it up in your heart, you will imbibe these four tattvas intensely.

If you reach that level of integrity, it is authentic. When you reach the peak of authenticity, then hunger also will not come. With integrity, the flesh component is still there. Only when you cross authenticity, the flesh component is not there. Only with authenticity do you start stretching. That is the power of authenticity!

I tell you, all your responsibility is not a hill sitting in front of you. It is just an air balloon in front of you! Anything you feel, like, 'my responsibility is too much, my lack of integrity is too much,' is nothing but a huge air balloon. It just looks like a hill. You just need a little bit of authenticity to pull it, or a small needle called initiation to poke it!

The best way to practice integrity is by taking up more and more responsibilities.

Listen! When you fall into the water, whether it is a bathtub, a swimming pool or an ocean, all three will look the same. When the water crosses your chest level, all three will feel the same. When the water level goes above the chest level, whether it is the bathtub or the swimming pool or even the ocean, you will feel that all three as same!

A new doctor in a mental hospital asks the senior doctor, 'How do you know when somebody is ready to leave and live their life normally? How do you know when to discharge them?' The senior doctor says, 'We give them a bathtub full of water, and a spoon, a mug and a bucket to empty it. Based on their choice, we will find out.' The new doctor says, 'So if somebody tries to empty the bathtub with the spoon, you will not send him home; if he tries with mug, you will keep him a few more days, and if he tries with the bucket, you will discharge him immediately. Right?' The senior doctor said, 'Well, a normal person will remove the water plug to empty the bathtub.'

When you compare with a mug or a teaspoon, a bucket looks like a very intelligent idea! When you compare, you will always be lost in comparison. But the real click happens when you come out of the comparison zone. Why do you feel that your inauthenticity or integrity is a huge hill? Because you are in a huge comparing zone. When you compare spoon, mug and bucket, the bucket feels like a good idea, the most intelligent idea. But it is not the most smart way of working! Smart work and hard work never go hand in hand. When you compare, bucket looks best, but the bestest solutions always come out of comparison zone.

If you think it is a huge hill - my lack of integrity, my inauthenticity, my responsibility - you are still in comparison zone, either with someone else, or with your own past. In your past you never broke your inauthenticity, that is why your inauthenticity is like a hill. Now you are trying to break. When you try to break, inauthenticity disappears on its

own. So, best solution for your huge inauthenticity, huge lack of integrity, huge responsibility, comes with very simple thing like pulling the water plug! It comes out of the comparison zone.

For example, if you believe - from age three I built this inauthenticity, when will I be out of this inauthenticity? From age three to now - so many years! It is built over twenty-five years, it will take twenty-five years to come out! That is like using a mug to empty the bathtub! Instead, say, 'No, I have the power of initiation! I will finish in one year.' That is like using the bucket. Just removing the plug is 'declaration'. Start living it! Start living it!

I tell you, only when you continuously take more and more responsibility, will you will be in communication about the tattvas. You will enrich each other, enlighten each other, you will be exposed to your inauthenticity, you will be exposed to your lack of integrity and you will be exposed to your incompletions. If you are sitting all by yourself, you will not even be exposed! You will be just sitting and worrying.

A very high standard of integrity and authenticity is required. You should not miss anywhere, especially when you have the power. When you have power and you have still not realized the ultimate purpose of your happening and integrated

Only when you continuously take more and more responsibility, will you be in communication about the tattvas.

all your powers with that one purpose, If you are playing with the powers, it can lead to inauthenticity and shrink your possibility!

For example, when you are doing the job of teaching, a high standard of integrity and authenticity is required. You can't even complete or do any prayaschitta if you have done some damage. Sometimes the damage will be irrevocable. When you take more and more responsibilities, you start expanding!

I tell you, whenever you open your hand to give, you receive even before you give. The words I am uttering are from authenticity and integrity. When you open your hand to receive, you lose even before you close your hand. When you open your hands to give, it is poured even before you start giving. When we started this sangha, I started giving without keeping a reserve. I opened my hands to give everything away. But before I started giving, it started pouring in. It started pouring, pouring and pouring. And I am continuously giving, giving and giving.

Just last night, my senior swami said that the amount of training we give to each brahmachari and brahmacharini is a million-dollar training. In any corporate company, if this amount of training has to be given to an individual, the company has to spend a million dollars! And he said, 'You are giving it away, and there is no guarantee they will be staying in the sangha.' I told him, 'This is the mission statement: I love people. People make me happy, not money. Money is just to train people. We need some infrastructure, that is why we need money.'

Enriching people is our sangha. I love people, not money. If I love money, if I start working for money, I can simply make a billion dollar company in a year! But I am not going to start a company and I am not interested in starting. I love people and people make me happy. So

enriching people is our sangha. Enriching people is our sangha! All money is just to create the place where you can train people.

I tell you, people are the most important energy in our life! I don't want to say 'resource'. It is a dirty word. People are the most important energy in our life. Work with people. Have interest in people. The interest you have towards people is the interest you have towards life. The interest you have towards money is the interest you have towards your security, which is like a safe tomb!

Money is okay if you want it for immediate projects, to enrich people. Your involvement with people shows your involvement with life. Your involvement with money shows your involvement with inauthenticity. People are wealth, people are life, people are energy. Finally, people are God! Give everything to people. People bring everything you need. Whether it is basic things like food, or things like love, joy, laughter; people bring everything in your life.

If you are expecting that the right people should happen in your life, you are a load on them. If you are making the people right in your life, you are a boon for them. Don't make right people to happen in your life. Make whoever has happened in your life as right! Make every one right, by taking responsibility. Okay?

Whenever you open your hand to give, you receive even before you give. When you open your hand to receive, you lose even before you close your hand.

When you have become integrated, but not yet become authentic, that is the zone where you will have powers. There is a possibility you can become inauthentic. Only when you take responsibility for the powers that came out of integrity, do you become authentic. Only when the danger of inauthenticity leaves you, are you safe. When you start enriching others with all the powers you have without allowing the inauthenticity of self-pride or self-importance, you cross the danger of inauthenticity. Until then, you still carry the danger of inauthenticity.

When you are incomplete, the job you do will also be incomplete. Listen. Go on infusing integrity into every emotion, feeling, thinking and experience you have in your life. Go on, go on and go on bringing integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching.

I tell you, any of our centers, temples or ashrams which take up the higher-level projects to grow spiritually and become successful. Whenever a center, temple, ashram or a group takes up big projects, they become so authentic, responsible and integrated and enriching; they become successful in all three, their personal life, professional life and sangha life. Go on infusing integrity into every emotion, feeling, thinking, experience you have in your life.

When you all gather as a sangha and do the sangha work, so much of energy happens in you, because others are happening in your life, and that energy will make you do the sangha work and your housework, both together. You will be successful in profession and in sangha, both together. When you know how to deliver, inspire and make others as part of you and become part of others; you are creating a success formula wherever you stand and breathe. Your family and your extended family, your job and your part-time job, you will be successful everywhere.

Part 4: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

I tell you, whoever takes the lead role in the sangha, you will see that he will also be a leader in his life. When you sit together as a sangha, take up a common project to enrich yourself and others, how you behave to that project is exactly the way you behave with life, and that is the way life is going to behave with you. Whenever you are in upayanam and take up more and more responsibility, you are in a state of expansion. I am constantly expanding, because I take more and more responsibility.

If you want to be successful in your life or in your business or profession, or in your relationship, or in your spirituality, your fulfillment, gather as a sangha keeping these four tattvas as the center; take up some huge responsibilities, projects that expand you and enrich others. How you behave with the sangha is exactly the same way you behave with life and life behaves with you. Just listening to these four tattvas is not enough; start living them by taking up higher responsibilities. Only then you pull the tattvas into your life, and the tattvas pull you into their life. You are pulling the tattvas into your life and tattvas are pulling you into their life. That is the only way any growth is possible.

Inner Awakening is nothing more than a vacation for you, if you are not taking up any responsibility. Only when you take up any responsibility, will Inner Awakening be a real awakening for you. Otherwise it is a good vacation - not bad, but a

Only when you take responsibility for the powers that came out of integrity, do you become authentic.

good vacation, spiritual vacation. Find out whether Inner Awakening was a spiritual vacation for you or a spiritual beginning for you. Is it a spiritual life or a spiritual vacation - find out what you got out of Inner Awakening.

Continuously express the four truths in your life; only then will you have the possibility of any kind of growth in your life. Only when you continuously express the four truths in your life, will you have the possibility of any kind of growth in your life. Take up the responsibility as a sangha. If you can inspire a volunteer team and make them deliver something, I tell you, I am a hundred percent sure you can inspire anybody and be successful in leading a team, whether in your company or in your home. Home is also nothing but a team. You need integrity, authenticity, responsibility. If you complete all these three Ts integrity, authenticity and responsibility, then it becomes a team. You become team. In Tamil, 'M' is the completion of any statement. Team is completion of all these three Ts.

Whenever you use your energy for the expansion of others, only then will you yourself be able to walk on the path of expansion. Only then will your own energy will be accessible to you, you yourself get to access your energy. Only then will your energy is awakened. Only then is it possible that your energy is awakened!

Constantly give life to this four dharmas of AIRE! I tell you*, dharmo rakshathi rakshitaha*! When you protect dharma, it protects you. When you excite dharma, it excites you. When you enrich dharma, it enriches you. When you are integrated to it, it is integrated into you. When you are authentic with it, it is authentic with you. When you take responsibility for it, it takes responsibility for you. Only when you enrich it, will it enrich you. dharma means the natural law of the cosmos. It

is an independent intelligence. Whenever you are integrated with it, it is integrated with you. Only then is it possible that your energy is awakened. Only then is your energy is awakened.

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

Whenever you use your energy for the expansion of others, only then will you yourself be able to walk on the path of expansion.

When you are in inauthenticity, you will be afraid to look into my eyes. Because I am looking at you with the 'thirdeye'! You are not ready to look at it; you are afraid. Your inauthenticity runs away from me. The state of fear can be born in you only when you are inauthentic. Only a man in authenticity, living authenticity, is a liberated one!

Listen! Every time an inauthenticity is allowed to live in you, it leaves a powerful fear in you! Inauthenticity makes postponing and procrastination a pattern in you.

How many of you can cognize that when inauthenticity starts in you, the first symptom of is that you postpone everything? Continuously bring authenticity to you. It is possible, because inauthenticity cannot really take root in you. All your inauthenticities are only a roof garden, not a rooted garden! Only a rooted garden is difficult to uproot, but a roof garden has no roots. Roof gardens are only to the depth of a few inches of sand!

Inauthenticity constantly puts you in a state of postponement. Inauthenticity can put you in a mental state of postponing life. I tell you, postponing life is nothing less than death! If you are not living, what is the use even if you are breathing? Not living even when you breathe

• what is the use!! Live along with breathing. Live along with breathing. Don't postpone, live along with your breathing!

When this pattern of postponing settles in you, it eats away your breathing period; it kills your breathing period and puts you in death. It keeps you in temporary death even while you are alive. If you decide to do something, if you decide to express your life in some way, don't postpone it. If you postpone it, it is temporary death. You are dead! To postpone is death. Unfortunately, the word 'postpone' does not convey the meaning and the seriousness of postponement. Postponement is death as long as the pattern exists. Postponement is death as long as the pattern exists! With integrity and authenticity, I tell you, only when you take the risk of stretching to others' anyakara, will you know the miraculous powers you carry. If you have not tasted the miraculous powers you are carry, life is boredom for you!

Go on drilling yourself. Go on drilling yourself. Go on drilling yourself with integrity and authenticity. I tell you, only when you take the risk of stretching to others' anyakara, will you know your power, your inner power, the miraculous power you are carry. If you have not tasted the miraculous powers you are carry, life is boredom for you. You will experience life only as boredom.

I tell you, if you see me having any miraculous power, it came to me only when I decided to stretch myself to all your anyakaras. If you say that others have no right to have any anyakara about you, that may be a fact, but it is not authentic. When I am ready to stretch to your anyakaras, I see the extraordinary powers expressing through me. Continuously practice authenticity and integrity. You will experience miracles. You will continuously see miracles happening in your life. I am continuously seeing miracles happening in my life.

Today, I wanted all of you to do the homework of finding out how dhamma happens in your life, reminding you of your inauthenticities, and how you are afraid of dhamma and avoid it. dhamma is the power that radiates in my eyes, which you are afraid to look into, when you have done something that is in adharma. When you are in inauthenticity, you will be afraid to look into my eyes. You are afraid of the dhamma that radiates in my eyes. Whenever you are afraid to look at my eyes, because you know that they will be burning, be very clear - my third-eye is also open at that time! Because I am looking at you with the third-eye, you are not ready to look at it. You are afraid. Your inauthenticity runs away from me!

The ability to stare into your inauthenticities is the ability to look into the eyes of Kalabhairava. Why do you think Kalabhairava and Mahakali are depicted with big-big eyes? Because they constantly expose your inauthenticities to you, and you are afraid to look into their eyes! If you see Kalabhairava, you see nothing other than eyes! If you see Kashi Kalabhairava, it is as if the eyes have a mouth, nose, eyes, ears, hands and legs! It is not as if the body has eyes; the eyes are having hands, legs, lips and nose!

The state of fear can be born in you only when you are inauthentic. Only a man in authenticity, living authenticity, is a liberated one. The courage

Inauthenticity makes postponing and procrastination a pattern in you.

of authenticity is the ornament of a sannyasi. It is the grace of a sannyasi. The courage of authenticity should be the rudraksha for sannyasi. The courage which comes out of authenticity is the only true ornament around the neck of the sannyasi. With authenticity, even the halahala poison cannot do anything to you. With inauthenticity, even if you drink nectar, you will be cut into pieces!

Rahu drank the nectar with inauthenticity. He did not live, he did not achieve the result of the nectar; he did not achieve what he should achieve by the nectar. Instead, he became piece-piece! He is still hiding without identity. Rahu is called the shadow planet, do you know that?

With authenticity, even if you drinkthe halahala poison, it will not have any effect, because enrichment protects you. Devi protects you. Halahala cannot cross the power of enrichment - the heart. That is why it could not cross from Shiva's throat to anahata, where Devi is sitting and enriching. If enrichment is sitting in the heart, even poison cannot cross your throat!

Authenticity is the ornament of a sannyasi. Only with authenticity does love starts flowing. Two days ago, a brahmachari came to me with a problem he was facing. There was a discussion between him and me. I did not utter a single loving word to him, but he has realized that I love him. I have not uttered even a single word like 'I love you, you are my child; I will help you'. Mine is Kalabhairava's love; I have not uttered a single loving word or made a loving gesture, but he realized I love him. I tell you, with authenticity comes real love, care and concern. Only with authenticity comes not giving up on people, not giving up on people and not giving up on people. Only with authenticity, can you express true love.

Drill yourself again and again with authenticity and integrity. Again and again, let your thinking become integrity and authenticity. Only with authenticity, can you enrich others and yourself. Whether you or others, you can enrich only by authenticity. Go on enriching in every possible way and enrich people. It will happen only with authenticity. Inauthenticity is the pus. Until it leaves your system, neither will you be healthy nor will you make others healthy. Remove the pus from your system; you will be healthy and you will make others healthy. Inauthenticity is the unnecessary fat in your body; push it out, there is no other shortcut. You can't put everything under the carpet. Bring integrity and authenticity, in every step, in every line, in every thought. Enrich people in all possible ways. That is possible only with authenticity. Listen! Enrich people in all possible ways. That is possible only with authenticity!

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

Only with authenticity, can you enrich others and yourself.

Wake up to your responsibilities. When you take up responsibility, you begin living life. I tell you, when you sit with this responsibility in your ananda gandha, you will see that your kundalini awakens and sends a strong wave to the cosmos, and your word changes the world!

Today, I will explain about responsibility.

One of my sannyasis has a question, 'Swamiji, you had earlier said that if we are in depression, we should just close our doors and not come out, and we will see that the depression will just go off."

No! That is in a different context, for a different reason. Okay? I thought you will have good company within you, but that is not happening. So you have to at least have good company outside of you.

Wake up to responsibility; you wake up to life. I tell you, each petal in your ananda gandha chakra opens up with new powers, when you take up responsibility. ananda gandha is visualized as an eight-petal lotus. Each petal opens up, when you enrich others and yourself. Go on enriching, go on taking responsibility, go on enriching, go on taking responsibility. Even when you are fighting with your enemy, if you are

fighting out of completion, you are only enriching him with the right lessons.

Listen! When you fight with your enemy out of completion, you are only enriching him with the lesson he needs to learn. Out of incompletion, even if you are teaching, you are only creating some more mental slaves for you, ideological slaves for you. How many of cognize this?

Even the most sacred thing like teaching should not be done out of incompletion. Out of completion, even the scariest things like fighting will only be teaching the right lesson to the enemy. Even fighting can become teaching, if you are in completion. If you are in incompletion, even the teaching will become fighting.

All of you start. This is the first instruction - Guruvak. From today, declare that you are complete, and do completion from all your old patterns, the self-fulfilling negative prophecies and complete all of them. I can see each one of you guys shining. I can see you guys doing it! Wake up to your responsibilities. When you take up responsibility, you begin living life. I tell you, when you sit with this responsibility in your ananda gandha, you will see that your kundalini awakens and sends a strong wave to the cosmos, and your word changes the world.

I tell you guys, responsibility is the energy in which your life flowers and blooms. Responsibility is the lotus on which this peetha is sitting. Only if you learn to think with the four tattvas, you will learn to be in no-mind space, you will experience non-thinking space, not before that. First learn to think with these four tattvas as reality. Responsibility is the energy on which your life flowers. Responsibility is the energy on which your life flowers!

I tell you, sit with the space of impossible possibility, which I call responsibility. Responsibility means, the space where the impossibility becomes possibility. Miracle powers are at your disposal; they start expressing. I tell you, now each one of you who are vibrating with responsibility in your heart, you will start expressing these miracle powers like vak-siddhi, materialising, awakening your kundalini and others' kundalini and enriching yourself and others with these tattvas.

Responsibility is the space where the impossible becomes possible. Wake up! Wake up to the call of your heart's responsibility. How many of you have felt authentically, the joy of taking a huge responsibility in your life? I tell you, that is 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'. Make that in your heart as THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM.

Listen to the call of responsibility of your heart. Remember, this season is the poornatva season, the season of completion. Continuously do completion, so that your irresponsible patterns die down, wither away and responsibility starts happening. Wake up to the responsibility. Every sangha should have this collective responsibility meeting within this poornatva ritu, until Guru Poornima. Before the Guru Poornima, you should all have the collective responsibility meeting, after completion. Or if you have done the collective responsibility meeting, you should even then continue the completion. All

Responsibility is the energy on which your life flowers.

the sanghas should do completion and collective responsibility meetings. Remember, this is the season of poornatva.

Continuously awaken the state of completion in you. I tell you, by this declaration and completion, you guys have already become Kali, Durga (symbols of courage). Now Lakshmi (wealth) and Saraswati (wisdom) will simply support you. It'll simply happen, because whenever Durga happens, Lakshmi and Saraswati rush there to support Durga's mission, Kali's mission. You guys have now shown the power, now Lakshmi and Saraswati will simply be there to support you guys.

Even I feel that something which I can't even grasp, is happening! I can see very clearly - the sangha has made all these declarations with integrity, authenticity, responsibility, and enriching. They have not said it with lack of integrity or authenticity, thinking, 'Let us just say it for now, what is there!' No! No inauthenticity! They did it with authenticity and that is why I see that I am also responding with so much of power of authenticity. That is why it is provoking and awakening so much power of authenticity in me. I tell you guys. Now, even your lack of integrity, inauthenticity - whatever is there now - everything will be imbibed and absorbed into your authenticity and integrity. It is like all the unnecessary things will become manure for the banyan tree that you guys are growing!

One of my ashramites is sending me a reminder, that I said I will talk on viraja homa today. I tell you, I am not just talking on *viraja homa, I am doing viraja homa now! Because, burning each one of your incompletions and irresponsibility IS the viraja homa.

virajaa vipaapmaa bhooyaat saggsvaaha Let all the unnecessary dirt which is in me be burnt away.

antaratma me shudhyantaam Let my inner space become pure.

bahiratma me shudhyantaam

Let the life happening outside of me also become pure.

Understand, you don't have only antaratma; life is not happening to you only on the inside. It is happening to you outside also. That is why the Upanishad rishi is using two words; otherwise he could have just said, 'antaratma me shudyantaam'. No! He says, 'antaratma me shudhyantaam, bahiratma me shudhyantaam, jyotiraham, virajaavipaapmaa bhooyat saggsvaaha.'

Because life is happening to you inside and outside, both. If life is not happening to you inside, it is depression; if life is not happening to you outside, it is inefficiency. If life is happening to you inside, it is responsibility, if life is happening to you outside, it is success. Understand? You cannot say life happens to me inside, but not outside. No! Be very clear: if life is happening outside, then life is happening inside also. Whoever is saying, life is happening to me inside but not outside, are called pseudo-vedantis. Whoever says, life is happening to

If life is not happening to you inside, it is depression; if life is not happening to you outside, it is inefficiency.

me inside and outside also, you belong to THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM sampradaya. Some teachings say that life happens only outside, there is nothing called 'inside'. I completely differ. Life happens to you inside and outside; if you think it is only inside and not outside, you don't know outside. If you think it is only outside and not inside, you don't know inside. Life happens inside and outside ,both.

Every conflict inside you and outside you should be solved only with these four tattvas. These four tattvas are the fire in which the viraja happens to you*. Vi-raja* means viraja - free of impurities. Only when you offer yourself into the fire of these four tattvas, this vedaagni, this jnanaagni - the fire of knowledge, you become 'viraja' - free of impurities.

I always wanted to initiate a hundred people into sannyas, in one batch. Now my dream is going to be fulfilled, my vision is going to be fulfilled. This Shivaratri, we will be initiating a hundred people into krama brahmacharya, naishthika brahmacharya and sannyas. At least a hundred people will be going through the viraja homa, and I will be initiating them.

Stand up with the courage of authenticity as your bone marrow, with the sweetness of enriching as your skin glow, with integrity as your inner software, with responsibility as your muscles, with completion as your blood flow, with commitment to the Guru and sangha as your breathing energy, with this one declaration that whatever may be the conflicts inside and outside, you will only resolve them with these four tattvas. And you will not give up on you; you will never give up on you. Live these four tattvas! There is nothing which can't be solved with these four tattvas. We will use nothing else to solve any conflict, other than these four tattvas.

Life means continuously practicing these four tattvas with excitement; not allowing you to settle down with the 'it's okay' pattern. You should settle down only with the four tattvas. Sometimes you may think, 'No, I need a vacation!' Your vacation IS settling with the four tattvas! When you don't settle with the four tattvas, you are at work. When you settle with the four tattvas, you have vacation. That is the truth. Live these four tattvas and enrich the whole universe!

When you live these four tattvas, your job is also enriching, your breathing is also enriching, everything is enriching! Whatever you do should be directly enriching. If you're maintaining an ashram, it should be enriching. If you're working in an IT company, it should be enriching people. You may get paid to take care of your family and your responsibilities, but you should only be aiming at enriching. Living life means continuously living these four tattvas.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you.

When you don't settle with the four tattvas, you are at work. When you settle with the four tattvas, you have vacation. That is the truth.

The word that you give you and others is the bone structure of your life. That is the bone structure of your life! If you continuously break the bones of your life, how will your life be? The word you give to others is the inner structure of your success in life!

I am going to define the four tattvas – integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching yourself and others. Today, I am going to redefine these four, for all of you to imbibe them clearly.

Integrity is fulfilling the word and thought you give to yourself and to others, and experiencing a state of completion – poornatva – with yourself, and with Life.

Listen, the word that you give you and others is the bone structure of your life. That is the bone structure of your life! If you continuously break the bones of your life, how will your life be? Full of pain, distorted, 'vakra', perverted. The word you give yourself is the bone structure of your inner personality, the word you give to others is the inner structure of your success in life. If you are constantly breaking your bones, then life will be painful, a suffering and a torture!

Life is based on the word you give yourself and others. How many of you cognize what I am saying? It is based on the words that everything starts. So, the word you give yourself and to others is your life. It is literally your LIFE!

You have to fulfill the word you give yourself and others as your very life. If you are really sure that you can't do it, then you should at least do the bone transplantation, but not fracture the bone. Do bone transplantation. It means you should complete the word by declaring that you will not be able to fulfill that word. Finally, complete it.

For example, you have given a word that you will give a million dollars to somebody. It is your life! You have to fulfill that word now. But if you are very sure that you will not be able to fulfill that word, at least complete with them saying, 'I will not be able to fulfill it. I am taking my word back. Please look for some other source.' Even this is a completion.

But the second choice should be used like a bone surgery. Will you do bone surgery to yourself every day? No! You will rarely do bone surgery. It cannot be done every day. In the same way, you cannot just complete by taking back your word every day. While giving the word itself, you should be aware enough that you are going to fulfill it. Only rarely is surgery allowed. But there should be nothing incomplete without fulfilling or completing it. Experience a state of poornatva, completion with you and with life.

How many of you do more completion and less fulfilling? Raise your hand. Giving a word and then taking it back; completing it, instead of fulfilling it. Raise your hands. You are all living in unconsciousness. You are living in utter unconsciousness! You give your word, but you are not aware of what you are doing.

Integrity is you fulfilling the word and thought you give to yourself and to others and experiencing a state of poornatva, completion with yourself and life.

If you give a word, be very clear that your life has already started building. You have started building your life. You have to fulfill it. It is your LIFE! Dropping the word and completing is like pulling down the structure and rebuilding it. How many times do you pull down the structure and rebuild?

If you build a hundred buildings, maybe one will be pulled down and rebuilt. But what do you do in your life? If you give hundred words, ninety-nine are pulled down and rebuilt. What does it mean? You still have no respect for life. You are not aware of what you are doing. You need to become sincere. You need to have the courage of authenticity before you give a word. You should ensure that your authenticity is kept alive. I tell you, authenticity is death for your boredom, and excitement for your life. Because authenticity kills the old way of living, it is a death for you and it is an intense excitement to live.

Applying the sacred ash on your forehead means that you declare and commit, 'All my decisions will be based just on this one truth of authenticity, because nothing else (other than authenticity)

Authenticity is death for your boredom and excitement for your life.

should interfere in my decision-making. Everything else is only ash. It will only become ash. So, all these things, which will become ash, should not be a part of my strategy planning! My strategy for life, my strategy for success, everything should only be from authenticity.'

I have a question from a participant, 'Sometimes, we commit to something when we are in the mood, and in some days we don't feel that we need to fulfill it. Should we do it, just because we gave the word, without the spirit behind the words? Can we drop that commitment in this case?'

No! If you have given a word, it just has to be lived. Just has to be lived. Word is LIFE! Brahma created the world out of the word. The integrity of Vishnu is the lotus from whose navel creation - Brahma happens; and the tongue of Brahma is the word 'veda', out of which the world happens. Understand, integrity should be the root foundation from which the lotus of the word blooms. Out of that word, creation happens. Creation happens out of the word from integrity. When a person with integrity says, 'Let there be a huge organization here,' it happens just like that!

Understand, when your words are rooted in integrity, the word is Brahma. If it is rooted in Vishnu – integrity – it just becomes reality. Integrity is capable of maintaining creation. Vishnu maintains creation. Creation is possible only when you are established in the state of integrity and utter your words. When you utter your words from the space of integrity, creation is possible, creation happens!

If you have committed, it has to be your life. It IS your life! Life is built on commitments. If you do not have respect for your commitments, your commitments also will not have respect for you. Listen! If you are integrated to your commitment, your commitment can make it into

a reality. Even in your day-to-day life, if you are integrated to your integrity, your integrity will be integrated to you.

Integrated to integrity, authentic to authenticity, responsible to responsibility and enriching to enrichment - only this will solve the fear of fears, the worry of worrying and the desire to have desires. If you just have the problem of fear, authenticity is enough to solve it. But if you have fear of fears, then only authenticity to authenticity can solve it. When your problem is layered, the solution also has to be layered!

When you are integrated to integrity, integrity will be integrated to you. Be in integrity with integrity! Be integrated to integrity, authentic to authenticity, responsible to responsibility and enriching to enrichment!

The words you give yourself and others form the bone structure of your life. If you give conflicting, contradictory words, the bone structure of your life will be a circle put on a square and rectangle - all crooked perversions! So, if you start building your life on that, how will it be? Crooked, perverted, incomplete, and useless!

You build a two hundred story building, forget to put steps and realize it only later on! You neither put the steps nor put a lift. And you come and tell me, 'Swamiji,

Creation is possible only when you are established in the state of integrity and utter your words.

I built a two-hundred story building, the tallest building on the planet earth!' I ask, 'How can we go up?' You reply, 'We have to use a helicopter Swamiji.' I say, 'Ok, at least with a helicopter you will go to the top floor. Then, how you will go to the other floors from that floor?' You reply, 'I forgot about this Swamiji. We have to also go to the other floors. I'll pull it down and build it again!'

Crooked buildings are created by the wrong skeleton structures. Crooked lives, useless lives are created by the wrong thought patterns. Lack of integrity creates crooked thought patterns. Crooked thought patterns create a crooked lifestyle.

Take the words you utter in your inner space very seriously, very sincerely. The most powerful being in your life is telling you, 'tathaasthu! tathaasthu!' to whatever words you utter. Who is that being? YOU! He is sitting inside you as the antaryaami and saying 'tathaasthu! tathaasthu! tathaasthu!' to whatever you utter. He goes on saying 'tathaasthu! tathaasthu!'

If you utter the words, 'I am the most healthiest person, I am going to live until THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM lives in the body,' the inner most being says, 'tathaasthu!tathaasthu!' If you think, 'I am sick, I have back pain. I cannot do this, I cannot do that. I am sick and broke and I am really having tiredness; I really can't do the work. And if I can do the work, they will exploit me. I am not going to be alright, I am not going to be healthy!' Then, your being inside says, 'tathaasthu!,tathaasthu!'

'The first step towards yoga is reduction in the words you create!'

Why will the words you create be reduced when you step into yoga?

Because you bring integrity and awareness into your system! Now you become responsible for the words you utter to you and to others. What will happen? Naturally, reduction in words will happen.

yogasya prathamam dwaaram vaang-nirodhaha || The first step in yoga is reduction in words inside and outside of you.

When you bring integrity, the words inside and outside you automatically drop, drastically. When you bring authenticity, the words will increase, and your capacity to fulfill it will also increase.

Listen! We will enter into authenticity. Let me define authenticity. Authenticity is you being established in the peak of your energy, responding to life from who you believe yourself to be for yourself, who you project yourself to be for others, and what others perceive you to be for them.

More than the word 'perceive', I'll change it into what others want you to be for them, what others expect you to be for them. Understand? I am redefining authenticity

Authenticity is you being established in the peak of your energy, the peak of your capability, and responding to life from who you perceive yourself to be for you and who you project yourself to be for others, and what

The first step in yoga is reduction in words inside and outside of you.

This is a very, very, very important quality for life to happen to you. The first thing you need to do is tune what you perceive as you, and what you project as you to others. Tune that. Do not reduce what you project to others. Increase what you perceive yourself to be for you. Let the benchmark be what you project and not what you perceive, because what you perceive is always lower than what you project. Compare both. Whatever is the best among both, take that. If there are some best qualities in what you perceive as you, then raise what you project to that. If there is something great in what you project, raise your perception to that. Got it? How many of you cognize this?

Authenticity is you being established in the peak of your capability, and responding to life from who you perceive yourself to be for yourself, and who you project yourself to be for others, and what others expect you to be for them.

Responsibility is living and responding to life from the understanding that you are the source of and, therefore, you are responsible for all the happenings in and around you. I'll alter one word. Instead of understanding, I will say, 'Truth'.

Responsibility is living and responding to life from the truth that you are the source of and, therefore, you are responsible for all the happenings in and around you.

Responsibility is the fruit. Enriching is sowing the seed for the fruit to happen. Integrity is the root, authenticity is the tree, responsibility is the fruit, enriching is sharing the fruit, to have more fruits. Integrity is the root, authenticity is the tree, responsibility is the fruit, enriching

is sharing the fruit to create more fruits. Every person who eats the fruit is responsible for sowing the seed for more fruits to happen.

If you are rich, be the ground on which the seed can be sown. If not, at least pour water for the seed to become a tree. If not, at least be a gardener to weed out the unnecessary things for the seed to become fruit again. Either you offer your time or talent or treasure. If you have eaten the fruit, it is your responsibility to make the seed again into a fruit. After eating the fruit, be responsible to sow the seed and make sure the seed again brings more fruits for more people to enjoy.

Start! Don't wait for the structure to evolve. Structure evolves when spontaneity forms. Spontaneity is the stone out of which the structure can be carved. Spontaneity is the base material that should become the stone. Then on that, the structure can be carved. But unfortunately we always wait for the structure to be carved first. How can the statue be carved without a stone? Spontaneity is the exciting hard work.

Listen! Spontaneity is the exciting hard work. Structure is the chiseled smart work. All great things start with exciting hard work and then comes the smart work. Chiseled smart work always comes later than exciting hard work. Listen! Create exciting hard work, and then the structure for

All great things start with exciting hard work and then comes the smart work.

chiseled smart work will happen. Chiseled smart work never happens without exciting hard work. Listen. This is what we need. Learn to do exciting hard work.

All sangha starts with excited hard work, not with chiseled smart work. What we need immediately is excited hard work established on the four tattvas. Excited hard work is the Guruvak for the whole sangha. Excited hard work!

People are the greatest asset to planet Earth! If the right education, inspiration and life are given, people are assets. Every individual brought to planet earth is wealth. It is a wrong attitude and understanding when we feel that people are a load on planet earth. Your hatred towards economically well-off people does not mean you love economically weak people. That is why, Communism was never a success. Socialism is never going to be successful. When you don't understand the value of people, you take them for granted.

When you do not know how to stand in the street and answer the questions of people, you will not answer the questions when you receive them on phone calls either. Only when you attend to people on the streets and answer their questions, help them with their concerns, you even learn to relate to people as human beings. Only if you learn to attend to the problems of the poor and rich, the concerns of the sick and healthy, concerns of the young and old, you learn to relate with people!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you.

Responsibility means cognizing that YOU are the source for everything happening in and around you, and taking responsibility for it. Only in the space of responsibility does life flower in you! Only when you take responsibility with responsibility does life start happening in you!

I will again give the essence of four tattvas. Today, I will expand on responsibility and integrity. I also wanted to share things a few things about viraja homa and sannyas.

Listen! Every time you take a new step like taking kaavi, taking brahmacharyam and sannyas initiation, going through the viraja homa, there is a big possibility for your transformation, for taking a jump into the next level of consciousness. If you take it without preparathion, you will set a low state for yourself. When you set a low state for you, you are missing another door opening for you. So practice integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. Don't give place for your greed when taking sannyas - greed for the position, greed for that color, greed for your fantasies. NO! Consciously decide, 'Am I going to use this door? When I do viraja homa, I should literally disappear into the fire of the four tattvas, the jnanagni, the fire of wisdom.'

When I open it to all, I throw the responsibility on you. When you jump into the rituals with incompletion, you miss one of the possibilities.

Complete with integrity and authenticity, and then take the jump. It is the space of sannyas!

When you become the head of an organization, you are also responsible for others' inauthenticity. Listen! Actually, every human being becomes a human being only when you start living the four tattvas. As I said, life happens when you take responsibility. Life happens when you start enriching.

I will give you the definition of responsibility once more. Listen!

Responsibility means living and responding to life from the truth that you are the source of, and therefore you are responsible for all happenings in and around you. Only in the space of responsibility does life flower. Even these buildings and these pillars are taking responsibility. Any bridge stands only because the pillars take responsibility.

Responsibility means cognizing that you are the source for everything happening in and around you, and taking responsibility for it. Only in the space of responsibility does life flower in you! Only then life flowers in you. Only when you take the responsibility does life flower in you. Only when you take responsibility with responsibility does life start happening in you.

Every time you take a new step like taking sannyas initiation, there is a big possibility for your transformation, for taking a jump into the next level of consciousness.

I tell you, taking responsibility for any disease is sarvaroga nivaarini. I declare this to the world. For any disease - from migraine to cancer, headache to headlessness, brain fever to brain tumor - for any disease, taking responsibility can be an amazing cure. Listen, it can be an amazing cure! I am giving you this not as a process for healing but as a process for curing the disease!

Listen to the word I am using - 'curing'. I know that with responsibility, you CAN change the way your heart pumps, the way your body functions and the way you behave with your body. Just do not stop with the attitude, 'it's okay'.

Please listen again - responsibility is an amazing cure for any disease, for any disease! Listen! With responsibility, life happens to you. When you take responsibility for whatever is seen and experienced by you, that which is unseen and un-experienced by you takes responsibility for you! Listen! when you take responsibility for vyakta, avyakta takes responsibility for you. When you take responsibility for whatever is seen and experienced by you, that which is unseen and un-experienced by you takes responsibility for you. Because avyakta functions and moves on the spindle center of responsibility! If the center of the spindle is mass, it attracts mass. That is gravitation theory. If the center of the spindle is consciousness, it attracts all consciousness. I tell you, the center of the spindle of the cosmos is responsibility! So it attracts responsible people towards it.

If you take responsibility for vyakta, avyakta takes responsibility for you. If you take responsibility for all the known things, the unknown things take responsibility for you. If you take responsibility for the known part of God and the world, the unknown part of God and the world takes responsibility for you. When God takes responsibility for you, you are God! You are an incarnation!

Incarnation is the being who takes responsibility for everything - avyaktam vyaktimaapannam - perceived, unperceived, experienced and un-experienced!

avyakta moves on the spindle center of vyakta, and vyakta moves on the spindle center of avyakta. You say that the earth moves around the sun; but I say that sun moves around the earth! You say that the earth moves around the sun, based on your time. I say that the sun moves around the earth, based on my time. You see a few years, I see few yugas (ages). When you measure by years, the earth goes around the Sun but when you measure by yugas, the sun goes around the earth. Because the whole galaxy itself is moving and going around, wherever the earth is going, the sun is going to go around the earth!

Listen, avyakta goes around vyakta, vyakta goes around avyakta. When you say vyakta goes around avyakta, you are a materialist. When you say avyakta goes around vyakta, you are a spiritualist. I tell you, take responsibility for vyakt; avyakta will take responsibility for you!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you.

When you take responsibility for whatever is seen and experienced by you, that which is unseen and un-experienced by you takes responsibility for you!

Constantly try to bring authenticity in your thinking , in every level of your thinking. Do not allow yourself to fall into a low mood or feeling 'powerless'. A low mood or feeling 'powerless' is inauthenticity. Be authentic, authenticity is enlightenment. A person with authenticity achieves enlightenment. Authenticity is a self-complete technique from the beginning to the end!

Along with Nithyananda sangha, I want constantly to promote everything related to Hindu tradition. Everything! From our way of dance, our way of singing, to our way of cooking, everything in Bharat is rooted in spirituality. Everything is rooted in enlightenment. Everything is rooted in kundalini!

If you are preoccupied with something, you will not be able to chant any Vedic mantras. If you are chanting the Vedic mantras, you will not be able to be preoccupied. Try it. If it comes from the navel you will not be preoccupied. You can do it only if you are complete! So when you are chanting, you can't be preoccupied.

I want to promote everything of the Hindu tradition. In Bidadi, I want a school for teaching Hindu dances. There are around three hundred forms of Hindu dance-styles, like Bharatanatyam, Kathakali, Mohiniaattam. And there are around two hundred ways of Hindu singing-styles.

Two hundred forms of Hindu singing-styles are available, rooted in saamagaana, saamaveda. This is one of my anyakaras for Bidadi campus.

Please understand, when you live these four tattvas or principles of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, you will first of all unearth so much energy in your inner space. Get it out! I can see it in my own organization, in my own experience, and many of the organizations which follow these principles. Human beings have so many wonderful things inside that should be unearthed. These four tattvas or principles will unearth all your possibilities!

Second, it will help you unearth others' possibilities. This is the essence or the input I wanted to give. I bless you all to be successful in living these four principles.

Today, I received a message from a devotee who wanted to take up the life of renunciation (sannyas). She said, 'I have posted pictures of the beautiful house and the life I am going to leave behind, when I take sannyas.'

I sincerely request you - if you still think that there is something beautiful in your life which you have to leave behind for sannyas, please enjoy that first! Complete it. Do not come to take sannyas without completing all your other enjoyments. Otherwise there will be a deep vengeance in you when you see other people enjoying those things. When you are renouncing out of completion, you want all others to enjoy their life and do whatever gives them most joy. sannyas is the renunciation that comes out of total completion.

Understand, it is out of completion that Shiva gives up on wealth, the shamantaka jewel, Kubera (God of wealth) and all the valuables that come out from churning the milky ocean. That is why he says, 'I am giving it up, but you enjoy.' When the poison comes out, he says, 'I take the responsibility' and he swallows it. He is complete about not having Lakshmi (Goddess of wealth). That is why he says, 'Vishnu, you enjoy'. He is complete about not having the dancing girls, the kalpavriksha and all the celestial things. That is why he says, 'You guys enjoy.'

There is a subtle violence in your giving-it-up, an incompletion in your giving-it-up. So may I request you sincerely to complete, and then decide whether to take sannyas or not? Do you understand what I am saying? I think I am clear. Yes!

I am going to expand on authentically authentifying authenticity. Authentically authentifying authenticity! This is the scale to know if we are authentic. Authentically authentifying authenticity!

See, every one of you is going to be a leader. When you start working with these principles, with these four tattvas, there will be completion after the first few days. And after the completion, there will be so much inner space. You will simply become a leader, because so much kundalini will be awakened in you. Who is a leader? A leader is the person whose kundalini is most awakened in the group. That is why, in many political parties, the so-called leader will not be leading. Somebody

A leader is the person whose kundailni is most awakened in the group.

else will be leading in the meetings. The one whose kundalini is most awakened is the leader. When you live with these four principles, your kundalini will naturally be more awakened than any common man. You will simply be a leader. You will simply be a leader!

When you become leaders, you need to continuously maintain the leadership consciousness. How to maintain the leadership consciousness? That is why we have this principle of 'authentically authenticating authenticity'. It means bringing yourself out of the mood of powerlessness again and again! Listen! When you are powerless, feeling very agitated and uncomfortable, completely wash yourself, with authenticity. Only one who can again and again wash himself with authenticity can continue to retain leadership consciousness. When you constantly retain your authenticity authentically, only then can you continue to remain in the consciousness of a leader, the space of a leader. When you are in the space of a leader, even nature is willing to be led by you. When you are in integrity and authenticity, even nature listens to you! Nature listens to you.

Try to constantly bring authenticity in your thinking, in every level of your thinking. Do not allow a low mood and the feeling powerlessness. If you are feeling 'powerless' and are in a low mood, be very clear that there is some inauthenticity. If you are having fear, any fear there is inauthenticity. Even if you have the fear that you may miss me or that I may leave you or that you may leave me, or anything - that is inauthenticity. Authenticity is enlightenment. A person with authenticity achieves enlightenment. Authenticity is a self-complete technique, from the beginning to the end.

Listen! Look in. Look in. One of the biggest problems human beings face is that you do not suffer with one or two patterns, but you suffer with a group of patterns! So even when you try to find a solution for

one pattern, other patterns come up and try and fulfill themselves through that solution.

For example, your country is attacked from all sides. Each of the countries act as if they are supporting you. But they have their own agenda of using you, for some other purpose. In the same way, you also are fighting with you, in your being. You have ten patterns. If you are fighting with one pattern, all the other patterns come up and tell you, 'Yes, yes! This pattern should be killed!' They act as if they are helping you to attack that pattern. In this way, these patterns which help you, gain power over you! You should tell them very clearly, 'Each and all of you keep out of me. All of you are ultimately my enemies.' If you allow even one enemy, if you take even one enemy's help to attack another enemy, it may be politically right, but it is not right in your spiritual life and it will not work!

Authentically authenticating authenticity! It means that you again and again saying 'NO' to the mind which says 'It is okay!' It is to constantly not allow powerlessness to engulf you or fill you. When you constantly fill yourself with authenticity, authenticity itself becomes a power. You have to make sure that authenticity gives you the power. It gives you the power. It empowers you. It constantly gets you out of the space of powerlessness.

Today's essence is this one truth. Constantly make

If you are feeling 'powerless' and are in a low mood, be very clear that there is some inauthenticity.

yourself authentic. Raise the level of your authenticity. Constantly bringing yourself back to authenticity raises the level of your authenticity!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you.

The cosmos functions on 'responsibilism'. The cosmos does not believe in socialism, communism, capitalism, cor poratism or any other '-ism'. The law of the cosmos is 'responsiblism'. The law of the cosmos is 'responsiblism'!

Today, I am going to expand on helping each one of you find stability and strength from and through these four tattvas.

Listen! Always give priority to being established in these four tattvas. Please understand that when you are established in these four tattvas, you are directly radiating the super-conscious energy!

I will expand on each statement that I'm making now. First, LISTEN!

There are a lot of groups which believe that 'language is God!' I tell you – No! Language is the prism through which you experience God and experience consciousness. Language itself is not God. Consciousness is Mahadeva, language is Devi.

Because those groups are only able to reach up to the level of language, they say that language itself is God. No! Language itself is not God;

Language is the prism through which you can experience God, and everything. When the Divine decided to enjoy itself, its own extension became language. When Mahadeva decided to enjoy Himself, His own extension - Devi - became language. That is why we call language as matrika – mother, in Vedic tradition. Language is the mother and consciousness is the father. Language is biomemory and consciousness is bio-energy!

Go on drilling yourself to be established in these four tattvas. For example, even if you feel tired or bored, immediately ask yourself, 'If I apply authenticity and integrity, is this tiredness allowed?' I tell you, listen! Tiredness is nothing but you deciding to pamper yourself ! How many of you have felt that the tiredness and boredom you feel, you can drop it and throw it away if you decide to, but you are cherishing it because you pamper you? Let me see, raise your hand. So, all of you understand? When you decide to pamper you, you allow it.

So, whenever you have even these simple ups and downs, come back to the tattvas. Tiredness is not a tsunami or a tornado or a hurricane; it is just a wave in a teacup! What can be the maximum effect of a wave in a teacup? It is nothing but the ripple created in the teacup when you blow on the tea to cool it, or to prepare your tongue to tolerate the temperature. Tiredness is just a wave in a teacup.

Language is the prism through which you experience God and experience consciousness.

Listen, whenever you feel tiredness or boredom, just decide, 'If I see myself with integrity and authenticity, is it right?' What will happen the moment you ask this? It'll just disappear!

How many of you have experienced it? Tell me, how many of you have really cognized it by experience? That's it! For even a small thing like tiredness and boredom, do not entertain the idea of pampering yourself, or the 'it's okay' feeling, or the so-called cute and cuddly feeling. Life is not going to give you a teddy bear to cuddle! So do not engage and entertain that cute feeling of boredom or tiredness. Do not entertain the idea of 'it's okay'. The tiredness which you allow again and again, because you feel you have done too much, is the root from which inauthenticity starts growing. There is nothing called too much!

Listen! How many of you just want to cuddle your tiredness and sleep? How many of you just want to cuddle the boredom and sleep? At that time, the inner Guru suddenly appears in you and says, 'Practice the four tattvas!' And then you hate this inner Guru's voice! No, it happens! How many of you have cognized it at least once? That is why I tell you - whenever your inauthenticity is exposed, you immediately try to somehow divert your attention to something else.

Listen! Do not entertain this cute, cuddling feeling with boredom or tiredness saying, 'I work so much the whole day! See my colleague, he does not do anything. He behaves like a government employee; I behave like a private professional. So I am much, much better than that guy!'

Listen, comparison is the root from which inauthenticity justifies and continues to exist in you! How many of you cognize this? Do not allow it! Tell yourself very clearly, 'Whatever he does is his responsibility, and my life is my responsibility. At the end of the day, even if he is

not responsible, I am also responsible for his irresponsibility!'

Listen! As I said, the cosmos functions on 'responsibilism'. The cosmos does not believe in socialism, communism, capitalism, corporatism or any other '-ism'. Beijing, Moscow or Wall Street are not the law of the cosmos. The law of the cosmos is 'responsiblism'. The law of the cosmos is responsiblism!

Comparison is the root from which inauthenticity justifies itself. But the law of cosmos and the natural law of existence - dharma is not the comparisonbased philosophy of communism, socialism, capitalism or corporatism. The law of the cosmos is responsibilism. The law of nature is 'upayanam'. The law of nature is responsibilism. Meenakshi and Sundareshwara ruled the cosmos with this one idea of 'responsibilism'.

You always measure the result of your responsibility based on the little money and name and fame that you get. That is where you fail! I tell you, when you take responsibility, the higher energies start expressing through you. When you take the responsibility, the Divine energies start supporting you. kinnara, kimburuda, gandharva, siddha, rishi, muni, gana - they all support you.

All I request you to do, is to not bother and logically

Comparison is the root from which inauthenticity justifies and continues to exist in you.

calculate with your small logic, for the first few times! See, when I ask you to take responsibility, you think, 'Two lakh rupees a month! If I work with this responsibility, I know that I will not have tiredness. Whenever tiredness comes, I will break it with authenticity. Whenever boredom comes, I will break it with authenticity. If I work like this, I will be making twenty lakh rupees per month in two years! Wow! Swamiji is great, giving me these kinds of ideas.' BUT, by the time you finish this calculation, you will say, 'Okay, but how can I have the twenty lakh rupees without even taking the responsibility?' After you complete your calculation, the last question you throw at you will be, 'How can I have that twenty lakh per month without even taking this responsibility?'

How many of you cognize what I am saying? That is why I am asking you to not measure the results of these four tattvas, with your small logic.

When you actually take responsibility, Indra enters your hand; it becomes 'vajraayudha'. Yama enters your lungs; it means 'not-stopping'. Lakshmi enters your heart; it means 'continuously sharing'. Kubera enters your liver and kidney, keeping the whole thing alive; Marut, Agni, Marichi, all of them enter your intestine, burning anything that is offered and keeping the whole system active and alive!

When you take the responsibility, when you start expressing authenticity, you get a thousand times more benefit than what you calculate through your small logic.

Listen! When you start living with responsibility and authenticity, not only will your monthly earnings move from two lakh to twenty lakh, but you also build a space where you live in deathlessness. Your

body gets built as you want. Your consciousness gets built beyond your body; you build a space of deathlessness; you build your akshardham. With integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching andkeeping Kalabhairava as promise, I declare that I am telling you the truth, the satya, the complete satya.

Break the boredom and tiredness pattern by bringing in the thought, 'If I think with integrity, this tiredness is nothing but a self-destroying negative pattern. How can I allow this? I complete with my tiredness and boredom, I divorce both of you. I lived enough with both of you and today, I divorce you. My tiredness, my boredom - I divorce you right now!'

Listen! LISTEN! Don't think that only your earning will increase from two lakh to twenty lakh, when you divorce your tiredness and your boredom. You need to know that you are creating a conscious space where you will be established forever deathless! It is not just a technique to improve your external productivity and success and life. It is a process where the source of consciousness is getting opened in you. So, divorce your tiredness and boredom today!

All I am trying to tell you is to divorce your tiredness and boredom now. Divorce your tiredness and boredom today! When I divorced my tiredness

When you bring in authenticity and responsibility, you get a thousand times more benefit than what you calculate through your small logic.

and boredom, it was trying to ask me, 'But, I am also your disciple, why don't you give me a little place?' I said, 'Nothing doing! I have given place for a lot of disciples like you; now I cannot afford to give a place for you!'

I have a question here: 'Does that mean that whoever is active and does not encourage tiredness and boredom will achieve the state of deathlessness?'

No. They achieve deathlessness only if they do not encourage tiredness and boredom with this clarity, in this context of using authenticity and integrity. There are sports people and body-builders, who live without tiredness by taking drugs and pills which are banned, like steroids. There are people who come out of tiredness and boredom by doping, but that is in no way going to help you. That is not going to lead you to deathlessness. No! Are you all clear?

And in the same way, intense lust and intense fear will sometimes get you out of tiredness and boredom. If there is intense lust, there will not be tiredness or boredom, you will jump and run. If there is intense fear, there will not be tiredness or boredom. If a stray dog is chasing you, will you have tiredness or boredom to run? So, intense fear and intense greed can also help you to be out of tiredness and boredom, but that is not going to lead you to deathlessness. If you get out of tiredness and boredom by using integrity and authenticity, you will achieve deathlessness.

When you take responsibility, the higher energies express through you. When you break your tiredness and boredom, the source of consciousness is opening in you. When you use integrity and authenticity and break this pattern of cuddling up with your tiredness and boredom, you are allowing consciousness to build your muscle-memory and bio-memory.

When you do yoga or fitness exercises, weight-lifting or dumbbells or anything,, look into your muscles which claim pain. Handle that pain with integrity and authenticity. Tell yourself, 'I have to be at my peak; that is authenticity. So how can I have this pain?' Then you will understand that the pain that your muscles claim is just pseudo-pain, it is false pain. You will see that your ability to lift weights will increase drastically; it will become double! Just with this one understanding, your ability to bend your body will become double. The ability of your muscles, the stability of your muscles and the flexibility of your muscles will become double just by understanding this one truth!

Listen! I am giving you the technique once more. When you bend the body in yoga or do weightlifting or any of these processes, if your muscles claim pain, if any part of your body claims pain or if your whole body claims pain, look in and ask with integrity, 'Am I really having this pain, or creating a self-destroying thought pattern which I am enjoying and cherishing?'

Yesterday, one of my disciples found that he has a root thought pattern that I don't care for him. I said, 'You found the root thought pattern; now why don't you complete it and get out of it?' He said, 'No, Swamiji, if I complete and get out, I will never bother to ask for your attention agin, and you will also not give me your attention. You will

If you get out of tiredness and boredom by using integrity and authenticity, you will achieve deathlessness.

never bother about me. So I am going to keep this root pattern, even if I know it!' Now what to do? Anyhow, that person was finally convinced to complete and get out of that pattern!

Many times, you keep the false pain signals in your body as a protection, as a security mechanism. You don't understand that you don't need that security mechanism!

It is like how these security agencies get their job! When they go to a new locality, they themselves hire a few people to do some stealing and create insecurity in that locality. So naturally, all the people in that locality will ask for security! In the same way, the idea of pain which comes in your muscles and body is the henchman of inner security agencies. If you don't appoint the security agency, the security agency itself will hurt you. How many of you cognize what I am saying? If you don't appoint the security agency or pay them some money, they themselves will come and create some problem for you .They will come in some other name and form and do some protest before you.

In the same way, you think that the pain which you are feeling in your muscles will keep your body in good shape, without getting damaged. So it is better to have the pain signals. This is not the right logic. Those pain signals are the enemies who are destroying you and stopping you from expressing your authenticity!

yogacharyas, this is one of the first lessons you need to teach your students, in your yoga classes. Just by understanding this, their flexibility, stability and ability will immediately double! Tomorrow, in the yoga session, everyone will experiment with this truth. All of you are cognizing it? Do not entertain any form of powerlessness at any time of the day, in any level of the body, mind or consciousness.

Part 5: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

• G Tiredness is nothing but you entertaining powerlessness in the level of the body!
• G Depression is nothing but you entertaining powerlessness in the level of the mind!
• G Atheism is nothing but you entertaining powerlessness in the level of consciousness!

I tell you, an atheist is a person who is cherishing poverty in the level of consciousness. Do not entertain powerlessness in any form in your life!

Listen! Death itself is nothing but entertaining tiredness and powerlessness in all three parts of you. Death starts in your life when you entertain tiredness. Whenever you handle your tiredness and boredom with integrity and authenticity, you will not entertain death even when you need to leave the body. Death will not happen to you. I am not just teaching you the science of success. I am teaching you the science of ananda (bliss). I am teaching you the science of nithya (immortality). Let your muscle-memory and bio-memory not entertain any form of powerlessness. Use integrity and authenticity!

Death starts in your life when you entertain tiredness. No! Authenticity and integrity should be the security for your hridgarbha, the sanctum of your

Death itself is nothing but entertaining tiredness and powerlessness in all three parts of you - body, mind and consciousness.

heart. The garbha mandir (sanctum sanctorum) which is in you is ananda gandha. Your ananda gandha is your garbha mandir, where your God, your ishta devata (chosen deity) – super-consciousness resides! Integrity and authenticity should be the dwaara paalakas, the guardians who will not allow tiredness, boredom, depression or any form of powerlessness to enter inside!

There is a question for me: 'When life does not give me what I want, or the power to change what I don't like, how do I not entertain powerlessness in such a case?'

Listen! It is because you entertain powerlessness that life is not giving you what you want. It is not that life first denies you, and then you entertain powerlessness. No! Because you entertain powerlessness, life asks you to change, or denies you. Change or denial comes from life only after you entertain powerlessness. You commit a crime and only then does life give you a punishment.

Life-energy is not in a hurry to harass somebody even before verifying if they have committed a crime or not! Entertaining any form of powerlessness like tiredness, boredom, depression, fear, worry, nontrusting attitude or denial of life, IS atheism! Entertaining any form of powerlessness in your inner space is entertaining death. Don't, don't do it!

Entertain life, so that even your death will be living. You will be living death. If not, you will be dead even while living. I have seen people who are dead even while living, and I have seen people who lived death. All my sannyasis should be living death, not dead while living. No! Change or denial comes from life when you entertain powerlessness. It is you who is entertaining powerlessness.

• G Powerlessness in the level of the pranic body is dilemma.
• G Powerlessness in the level of the mental body is worry.
• G Powerlessness in the level of the subtle body is depression.
• G Powerlessness in the level of the karana sharira (causal body) is the inability to trust life.
• G Powerlessness in the level of the cosmic body is atheism.
• G Powerlessness in the level of the nirvana sharira is being a demon - Satan!

Being Satan is one step more than being an atheist. An atheist does not believe that God exists. Satan believes that God exists, but he still wants to fight with Him. He wants to oppose Him!

The child-form of Satan is tiredness. Tiredness slowly grows, grows, grows, grows, and finally becomes Satan - devil. Whenever tiredness approaches, understand very clearly that it is a small sweet cute snake! When you see a baby snake, it also looks very cute. You just want to cuddle with it and have that guy running all over you.

Entertaining any form of powerlessness like tiredness, boredom, depression, fear, worry, nontrusting attitude or denial of life, IS atheism!

When you see a baby tiger, you find it so cute and think, 'Wow, can I have this?' Only when it grows will you understand that tiredness is the child-form of Satan! Do not entertain powerlessness and dilemma in any form in your being!

Integrity and authenticity will bring tremendous kundalini awakening and stability in you. Tomorrow, try to practice integrity and authenticity while you are doing weight-lifting, or bending your body during yoga. I promise you guys, that your ability, stability and flexibility will become at least two times more. Your integrity and authenticity awakens the highest possibilities in you! Do not entertain any pampering thoughts through the whole day. Integrity and authenticity will bring tremendous kundalini awakening in you!

Sometimes you think, 'I can afford anger with this guy'. And you entertain it! Understand, even that is entertaining powerlessness! Integrity and authenticity should be used as strategy planning before every small or big decision. If you are suffocated by life-shrinking thoughts, you are shrinking, shrinking and shrinking! Entertaining tiredness, depression, low mood or atheism – these all are nothing but entertaining powerlessness! Entertaining the idea of non-possibility is powerlessness!

Continuously, try to attend to your hunger, thirst, everything, with integrity and authenticity. With integrity and authenticity, whenever your body feels hunger, give it food. I tell you, this is the way my disciples and devotees should eat. Eat only if you feel authentically hungry; the hunger should be felt by your muscle-memory, by your bio-memory. Drinking water is okay. But you should eat only your muscle-memory or bio-memory feels the hunger. Unfortunately, even if you feel anger, you eat!

In kindergarten, you first mistook anger for hunger, and even now you mistake anger for hunger. How many of you have mistaken anger for hunger in kindergarten? How many of you are mistaking anger for hunger even now? When you are feeling angry, you feel like eating - right? What does anger have to do with food?

Listen! I am defining the science of enlightenment. Flooding your body, mind and spirit with these four tattvas, and establishing yourself in these four tattvas, is the science of enlightenment!

I tell you, with integrity and authenticity, you can declare your poorna sannyas. You can declare your naishthika brahmacharya. You can declare your krama brahmacharya. I tell you, you can declare your enlightenment! Nobody else is responsible. Nobody else can declare it for you. And I am telling you, if you really declare with integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching that you are an enlightened disciple of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM, I have no problem! Because it is now your responsibility! I have set a high standard of enlightenment. So before declaring, just be very clear that people are going to look up to you and expect you to live up to this standard. If you cognize that you are enlightened with integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, declare your enlightenment!

Flooding your body, mind and spirit with these four tattvas, and establishing yourself in these four tattvas, is the science of enlightenment!

The science of enlightenment is flooding your body, mind and spirit with the four tattvas, and establishing yourself with the four tattvas. From now on, my deity should be carved and established in our temples, with the right hand as abhaya hasta (symbolizing protection) and the left hand with the four fingers representing the four tattvas, chatur-tattvas. I give you the abhaya and the vara, the protection and the gift. Live these four tattvas.

Authenticity and integrity straightaway gives you whatever you want, and take away whatever is not required to be inside you. The whole problem of humanity is that whatever you want outside is not with you, and whatever you don't need inside is with you. You need to empty your inside, filled with unnecessary things. You need to have all the necessary things outside. Integrity and authenticity will immediately do that job. It will get all the unnecessary things which are sitting inside, out of you. It will get all the necessary things outside, which you don't have, to you.

So many ashrams, temples and, centers are declaring their collective responsibility. Understand, your collective responsibility meeting and declaration is not a poetry session. It is a planning session. All of you are clear? Your muscles should have started getting built the moment you made your collective responsibility declaration. Your muscles should have started feeling the strength. Your mind should have started feeling the stability. Your body should have started feeling the life the moment you declare your collective responsibility. Your whole body should be feeling, 'Wow, I am going to do this, live this!' Your body should feel the life energy, like it is happening in front of you.

Listen! It is the energy which is happening in your word, in your mind and in your body that is going to inspire and enrich thousands of people to live these four tattvas. The energy of thousands of people living these four tattvas creates the temple or the goshala or the city or the university. You are visualizing and declaring this. Understand, the energy of thousands of people living the tattvas IS going to create temples. The energy of thousands of people who want to learn the tattvas is going to create a university. The energy of thousands of monks wanting to live these tattvas is going to create monasteries. Money is not going to make monasteries. It can make corporate buildings, but not monasteries. Political power is not going to create monasteries and temples. It can create parliaments, but not monasteries. The temples and monasteries which you declare will be created only when thousands of people are practicing these tattvas. If there are no worshippers, there is no temple; if there are no monks, there is no monastery!

People, people, people - our sangha starts with people, lives with people and will eternally live with people. If there is going to be a time when only the last human being remains on the planet earth, he will be a living these four principles! We start with people, live with people and continue to live with people. We will never die. It is people whom you need to serve and enrich. Go around and enrich people with these principles, tattvas and satyas. Live these chaturtattvas; then the abhaya and varada of the ultimate

The whole problem of humanity is that whatever you want outside is not with you, and whatever you don't need inside is with you.

is always with you. You are brahmanyam bahuputrataam, the favorite inheritor of the cosmos!

The being which has surrendered to the four tattvas is brahmanyam bahuputrataam. Understand, the four fingers of your left hand denote the four tattvas, and the thumb denotes the being which has surrendered to the four tattvas. The being which has surrendered to the four tattvas enjoys the space of brahmanyam bahuputrataam. If you declare with integrity, authenticity and responsibility that that you are the favorite inheritor of the cosmos, you can wear your brahmanyam bahuputrataam ring on your left thumb.

Do not allow powerlessness in any form. Do not allow boredom or tiredness in any way. Your life is your responsibility. The being which has surrendered to the four tattvas is brahmanyam bahuputrataam!!

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, '!

When you want to enrich others, do not work from the fear that everything is at stake. Nothing is at stake! Work from the strength to prove the power of Buddha and dhamma!

When you want to enrich others, do not work from the fear that everything is at stake. Nothing is at stake. Work from the strength to prove the power of Buddha, dhamma and sangha. Even internally, do not feel that everything is at stake. Otherwise, you will be working out of fear. You will only be visualizing failure. Work thinking, 'We will prove the power of Buddha, dhamma and sangha'. Then, you will naturally visualize sixteen or seventeen or eighteen hundred people's lives enriched. It is just like Satyagama Japala, who was given the instruction by his Guru to come back with one thousand cows. The Guru did not give a date and time for him. But because I have thousands of Satyagama Japalas, I am telling you to come back with thousands of lives enriched the next May. It is the Guruvak is given to you guys, so take it up. I promise to give each one who completes this responsibility that which Satyagama received from his Guru, when he came back with a thousand cows.

I declare with integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. It is my commitment to all of you. If you have completed your collective responsibility, (it is not shared responsibility, but collective responsibility) ,each one will receive what Satyagama received from his Guru, the life which is being used by satyas. It is not that you are using satyas, it is the satyas using you~! 'You' are no more there! The satyas are playing through your body. That is what I call enlightenment! Enlightenment is that you don't need to struggle or suffer to live the tattvas. The tattvas will live and 'you' will not be there. I will give you what Satyagama Japala received from his Guru.

So how many of you will enrich others? Today we will the en-communication session for Tamil IA participants and we can also open the session for you guys!

I tell you guys, the moment we took up this commitment of enriching others, the level of frequency itself has become different for the whole campus and the whole sangha,. I know how the whole country would have felt when they decided to build the Meenakshi temple or the Tanjore temple. It is such extreme authenticity, responsibility, integrity and enriching. It is impossible possible!

Yesterday, I was relating to King Rajaraja's akashic records (the king who built the Tanjore temple). I

The moment you take up this commitment of enriching others, the level of frequency itself becomes different.

was relating on how he built his temple, what he has went through and the kind of plans he made. It is an amazing inspiration! His inspiration is taller than the Tanjore tower! And that is why he was able to create that tower! Can you imagine - that building remained 'The' tallest building on the planet, until two hundred and seventy years ago. He built it a thousand years ago, and it had an unbroken record for seven hundred years!

You can't even imagine the size of the foundation that would have been dug, for such a large structure to stand. Do you know that it is a hollow structure? It is just a shell, a two hundred and seventeen feet structure of stone, a zig-zag puzzle of poetry! It is the ultimate zigzag puzzle of mathematics, the ultimate engineering calculation and a beautiful poetry of creativity. One beautiful thing is that he did not do it for his maid, mistress or queen, he did it for God! He did not make his countrymen work for his maid, mistress or queen. He made them dedicated for a principle. Hats off to Rajaraja!

I was studying his akashic records to study how he conceived this whole idea. Because, the moment he decided to build this temple, it would have been a moment when these four tattvas would have lived through him. For those moments, he would have been enlightened. Otherwise, it is not possible to have a breakthrough, to decide to make something impossible, possible. Understand, it is impossible even now! Even I am not able to conceive this - to build the structured stone of that size with so much of technology and with millions of people all over the world willing to give their life for what I say - especially if I say that I want such a temple. I know thousands of my ashramites and devotees will resign their jobs, sit here and do it. But even then, I am not even able to conceive it.

I am just studying his akashic readings and trying to see the moment when he decided to build the temple. Somebody would have naturally proposed that if he was a human being, it would be impossible to do such a thing. There were detractors! It was not as if his regime was peaceful. He was expanding his kingdom. He was the first king in history, who made the naval army. He went to countries like Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia and Cambodia. But never killed anybody, he just created those civilizations by marrying girls from those tribes, teaching them the culture, expanding the civilization and building temples. He never had a war, but he had a huge, beautiful naval army, because they carved the temples here and took it there. They took elephants from here to there to drag the stones and make the temples!

Any one inner space has to say 'YES' for the impossible to become possible! Naturally, only Rajaraja's inner space could have said that yes. Even though his rajaGuru would have been the inspiration, the final yes should only be from him, because he was funding and giving the infrastructure.

I just wanted to study that moment - when he said 'yes' and what he was then. Because I wanted to invoke that! It is an unimaginable experience! Of course, I am not going to invoke it, because he did not stay in that space. He did not become enlightened. He just went into that space, like sattori and came

Any one inner space has to say 'YES' for the impossible to become possible.

down. But even then, it is worthy for what he has contributed. The akashic record says that he not only built that huge structure, but also covered it with stone. And history accepts it! There is a clear record of this in history - of the gold sheets being covered, of the drill, of the holes and of how it has been completely bolted into the stone. Later, history also says that Rajaraja covered the whole temple with gold. The weight of the gold used was equivalent to the weight of one thousand of his official elephants! He covered the entire thing with that much gold! The holes from drilling the gold are still there, It is poetry in stone, carved with grace and built with kailaya. I can sing poetry about this temple!

What made him say 'YES', and then make it happen? He was in the space of the impossible becoming possible, for around 11 days, due to the inspirations and initiation of his Guru - Karuvu Chittar - the rajaGuru. His jeeva-samadhi is right behind the garbha mandir of the temple.

Rajaraja was in the ecstasy of making anything impossible, into possible. Ecstasy is the space where anything impossible looks possible, because you are in the space of possibility! The space of possibility is ecstasy. When it settles in your bio-memory it is ananda! When the space of possibility is tasted by your muscle memory, it is ecstasy.

In eleven days, he declared and decided to build the temple and cover it in gold. He allotted enough number of people and villages to keep this alive. He allotted four hundred dancers, five hundred and seventy priests and ten thousand people, who maintained and settled around the temple, just to take care of it. Can you imagine the houses of the people, who belong to the temple? It is the space of making things which you can't even grasp through your eyes but which you can grasp only through your visualisation! That space is life oozing in your muscles! Come on, let us live it!

We have sixty days to make the space of possibility as a part of our bio-memory. Let this be used by you and by your muscle-memory to taste the space of possibility! It is not only divorcing tiredness and boredom, but also imbibing ecstasy! Your heart and being should continuously tell you that it is possible. I can see it happening. There is no question of struggling and no question of visualizing failure, because there is no failure! If you are visualizing failure and failing, even that is success. So there is no such thing as failure. There is only success in life! You get what you visualize!

You will all only cognize success, and the space of possibility, like Hanuman, he is the space of possibility, as is Nandi. Your chest will expand when you carry that space of possibility. Be constantly in the space of success. When you go to a person to enrich him, know that he is getting enriched. Go in that space. Don't think, 'Oh! His logic may not match with my logic. I have to prepare myself, argue with him and convince him. No! Enriching people will be your breath from today. All of you understand, no matter how much you do, if the thought 'It is impossible' has interfered, it is impossible!

Just imagine how much Rajaraja would have suffered, internally and externally. The Tanjore temple was built in five years – three days less than five years! He completed it and the kumbhabhishekam

Ecstasy is the space where anything impossible looks possible, because you are in the space of possibility.

was done. The gold plating was done later, but the kumbhabhishekam of the temple was done! The gold was donated for his birthday. Then, the sheets were made, carved and fixed on the temple.

Taking up the responsibility is the space of possibility! You may say, 'He said it, and so everyone listened.' Please understand, his regime was almost like a democracy. He was like a president that's all. All the local bodies agreed to it and took it up.

He made this possible, just by inspiring people with his charisma! It's not like the whole country worked for this project. His son recorded all the sculptors and craftsmen. And just so that they don't go out of a job, he created a second temple! He also thought that he should not be taller than his father. So he reduced the height of the second temple by six or seven feet, just to respect his father. He created a second temple just to engage the sculptors and craftsmen. This means that only one section of the people worked on the first temple, and not the whole country.

Can you imagine the spirit and inspiration of the space of possibility? Life starts with the space of possibility!!

I tell you, bliss or ananda means 'the space of possibility, where life oozes out of you'. Everything should create a space of possibility in you. This temple structure was also the first time on planet earth when a structure was fully built with granite. For this, Raja Raja's heart would have said it, and his inner space too would have said 'It is possible'.

See, all I am trying to tell you guys is to taking the jump of 'possible'. When you see the space of possibility that Raja Raja lived and radiated, enriching a thousand human beings and inspiring them seems too small.

We are not taking any risk here, of trial-and-error, or gambling. But Raja Raja literally gambled his whole name, prestige & credibility. If something had happened while building it or the structure did not stand or collapsed, Raja Raja would have collapsed. Because his gambled his prestige, credibility and the trust that people had on him. He did everything from the space of possibility and he did it! In those eleven days when he declared and laid the foundation stone, he was in the peak of possibility and he made it happen!

I assure and commit with you guys, I will put you guys in the peak of possibility within the next few days. I am already pushing the whole collective consciousness of the sangha to the peak of possibility! Use this enriching celebration to experience the peak of possibility. The peak of possibility should be realized in every human being so that you become empty. You are nothing but a 'NO'. When the 'NO's disappear, you disappear and the satyas start living through you. Your personality is made of 'NO's and your identity is made of 'YES'. Let your personality be dropped and identity be awakened. Your personality is given by society but identity is natural. Start enriching others in the best way, you will see that you are getting enriched!

I can see that since yesterday the sangha has entered into a new phase. Listen! Listen! Listen! Through

Taking up the responsibility is the space of possibility. Life starts with the space of possibility.

this May-2013 IA celebration, let us all make authenticity as our lifestyle. Let us make living to our peak possibility as our lifestyle. We have to earn it and build it. It will not happen tomorrow, it will happen NOW! When you are in the space of possibility every person is a possibility. Constantly be in the space of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching others. Enrich, enrich & enrich, you will make it and do it. The moment you remember the tattvas, the space is ecstasy. When you go with the space of possibility, you will engulf whoever you speak to with your ecstasy and inspiration. They are taken along with your Tsunami and Tornado! The garbha of each woman carries the space of possibility and that is why it can create a body. Let all of you carry the space of possibility in your ananda gandha.

The space of possibility is ecstasy, the space of positivity is joy, the space of leadership is ananda and the space of Enlightenment is THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you.

Whenever you look at any destruction as a reminder of your inauthenticity and irresponsibility, it is no more a destruction in your life. You have learnt how to make anything negative into something positive, to strengthen your life. If you are able to make anything negative into positive the moment it enters into your life, you are S HIVA - Causeless Auspiciousness.

Today is Shivaratri - the day when timelessness – formlessness -namelessness appeared into the space of time, form and name, as Arunachaleshwara, for conflict-resolution and giving enlightenment to the gods Brahma and Vishnu. So the appearance itself happened for the sake of conflict-resolution.

Once, there was a conflict between Brahma and Vishnu. Conflict happens only when there is an ego. Both sides are responsible for the conflict. Even if one side does not have ego, the conflict will not happen. For any conflict, two egos are required, both of which are not ready to resolve the conflict, be authentic or take responsibility for the other's inauthenticity. For a conflict to happen, there must be lack of integrity, lack of authenticity and lack of responsibility to take responsibility for the other's irresponsibility and selfishness, and lack of the tattva of enriching. Only when all four are lacking, conflict is possible. When anybody who is in space, time and form forgets to take responsibility for other's irresponsibility, there will be conflict.

Between Brahma and Vishnu, a conflict happened about who among them is greater. Both of them were exposing each other, but were not ready to take responsibility for the other's inauthenticity.

The conflict started between Brahma and Vishnu. In a way, it's a fight between the father and the son; just the generation gap! The son is trying to teach a lesson to the father, 'You may be older, but I know much more about computers than you know. I can use this gadget much better than you!'

Listen! People who don't feel responsible even for their own actions are living in poverty. When I say poverty, I don't mean physical wealth alone; they also live a low-level existence, animallevel existence. People who take responsibility only for their own actions are human beings. People who take responsibility even for others' actions, others' irresponsibility, are leaders. Even though you or your action are not responsible, taking responsibility for others' inauthenticity and others' irresponsibility makes you leader, makes you divine. Unfortunately, here neither Vishnu nor Brahma was ready to realize their own inauthenticity and take responsibility for the other's inauthenticity.

Realize one truth: the moment you have conflict, you have lost the space of the ultimate in you! In

Conflict happens only when there is an ego.

the space of the ultimate, there is no conflict. If there is conflict, the space of the ultimate is lost.

Brahma and Vishnu both lost the space of the ultimate in them. Now the universe is at stake! So Shiva (Mahadeva), the guy who is responsible for everything, who has to come and rescue everybody, who has to take responsibility for everybody's irresponsibility and inauthenticity, enters into the realm of space and time. As Arunachaleshwara, as a pillar of light, a jyoti sthambha, Mahadeva appears to teach them the truth. Anybody who is bound by space, time, name and form has to take responsibility for their existence. Mahadeva appears to do the conflict resolution, to remind Vishnu and Brahma to take responsibility for their way of existence.

srishti (creation) and sthiti (sustenance) think that they are the ultimate until destruction enters their life. Only when destruction enters their life, do they realize that they are not the ultimate! That is why Mahadeva has to happen in their life in the form of Rudra, destruction. You should realize that whenever Rudra has happened in your life, it is to remind you of your inauthenticity. All forms of Rudra happening in your life is to remind you to take up responsibility for your inauthenticity and irresponsibility.

Mahadeva appears to Brahma and Vishnu to expose their inauthenticity to them, and make them responsible for their inauthenticity and others' inauthenticity.

Today is the day Mahadeva appeared to resolve the conflict between Brahma and Vishnu, to remind them of their inauthenticity and ultimately enrich them with enlightenment. Mahashivaratri is the day to celebrate timelessness entering into time. I can say that in a way,

today is the day the Hindu calendar starts. The calculation of time starts from today. So naturally, Shivaratri is the oldest celebration, because the calendar starts today, the calculation of time starts today. Mahadeva has to appear again and again in your life to remind you that you are in state of inauthenticity and make you take responsibility to restore authenticity.

Whenever you look at any destruction as a reminder of your inauthenticity and irresponsibility, it is no more a destruction in your life. You have learnt how to make anything negative into something positive, to strengthen your life. If you are able to make anything negative into positive the moment it enters into your life, you are SHIVA - Causeless Auspiciousness. I am grateful and thank and congratulate my sangha for being and continually becoming Shiva. It is so beautiful. They are fulfilling my vision of one hundred sannyasis today, so refreshing, so alive, so joyful; feel like just born today, to live forever!

There are some things that have birth and death, such as your body. There are some things that have no birth but death, like illusion and delusion - maya. It has no beginning but it has death, it has anend. There are some things which only have a beginning, no end. That is the sangha of the Master. It only has birth and no death.

If you are able to make anything negative into positive the moment it enters into your life, you are SHIVA - Causeless Auspiciousness.

The river Ganga only has birth but no death. It never dies. It becomes an ocean, but never dies. It may become an ocean, but it is still alive. It has no death. So listen! When any destruction comes in front of our face, we should know that Rudra is coming to remind us to take more responsibility and become more authentic. We are doing it; we will convert everything into the space of positivity and possibility!

Listen! Intense integrity brings you into the space of positivity, because if you are integrated, you will constantly be looking at the words you utter to you and to others. You will weed out all the negative processes, all the negative commitments you are giving to you and to others. This will leave you with the prasad, the gift of positively positive space, real positive space. And authenticity gives you the prasad of space of possibility, just a space of possibility.

When Rudra comes, face him with possibility and authenticity, and he becomes Shiva. Rudra becomes Shiva, causeless auspiciousness. He becomes the space of rejuvenation, not just destruction. When he becomes the space of rejuvenation, he is no more the space of destruction. The space of possibility makes Shiva happen in you. Shiva happens in you. Whenever you view any destruction happening in your life as happening only to expand you, you are in the state of Shiva. Rudra becomes Shiva.

Brahma should have been established in the state of integrity, because he represents the word. Vishnu should have been established in authenticity, because he is all-pervading, sarva vyaapi. When Brahma fell from integrity, Vishnu fell from authenticity. The conflict happened, and responsibility has to appear in the form of Mahadeva, taking responsibility for both, the lack of integrity and the lack of authenticity; reminding them and putting them back into the space of integrity and

authenticity. This action is enriching. Mahadeva, the embodiment of responsibility, appears to enrich Vishnu and Brahma, and to remind them about their inauthenticity and lack of integrity.

Fortunately, Brahma and Vishnu completed and restored their integrity and authenticity. That is the reason the universe is still functioning, available to all of us. I tell you, whenever there is lack of integrity and lack of authenticity among human beings, Mahadeva, due to his ultimate feeling of responsibility, appears in the space of time, form and name, to remind people and bring them back to integrity and authenticity. Today is the day we celebrate Mahadeva's happenings, all Mahadeva's happenings, not just this one but all happenings.

It is so beautiful to see our sangha restoring their integrity and their authenticity, and taking up responsibility and enriching themselves and the world. I can feel the joy that Mahadeva would have felt, when Brahma and Vishnu restored their integrity and authenticity! I feel the same joy when Rudra comes into your life with destruction. Face him with integrity and authenticity. He is not your enemy. He is your own being, reminding you to get centered with authenticity and responsibility. He is Shiva, who is your very life, because he loves you, because he is the very you. He is causeless auspiciousness.

Listen! Listen! These makara kundala ear-rings are

Intense integrity brings you into the space of positivity. Authenticity gives you the space of possibility.

to remind you to listen! This is traditional jewelry worn by Mahadeva and Meenakshi. It is called makara kundala. makara is the vehicle of the river Ganga. makara is a kind of crocodile which lives in Ganga and goes on purifying Ganga. So listening purifies your jnana Ganga. Listening purifies your inner Ganga!

Listen! Today is the day for everyone to restore your integrity, authenticity, take responsibility and enrich yourself and others, because Mahadeva did all these four today. He appeared for conflictresolution and he decided to enrich by giving enlightenment. Let us celebrate Mahadeva happening in the space of time, name and form, by restoring ourselves through integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. From today morning, I am feeling an extraordinary strength and the power of authenticity! I know something extraordinary is going to happen from today. Today is the day for you to re-establish yourself in integrity and authenticity, take responsibility and enrich yourself and others.

Today, the great possibility is opening for us; the door is opening for all of us to restore integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. This is the message of Mahadeva, happening today as Mahakala, who is beyond time. I can see that happening with one hundred sannyasis. The sangha is taking up this possibility, restoring integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. It is like a huge door is opening, like what the saint Jnanasambandar did! On his marriage day, he just opened the door to Kailash! Whoever wanted to enter, he also took responsibility for their inauthenticity and took them along with him to the space of enlightenment!

Today, I am opening that door for all of you. So today, whoever declares, I give you the freedom of declaration and I take the responsibility of

your declaration. I take the responsibility to make you responsible and authentic and integrated to your declaration. I take responsibility even if your declaration is inauthentic, and I take responsibility to make it authentic, responsible, integrated and enriching.

Today, we will be declaring the official THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM order or THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM sampradaaya to the world*.* This order will form the core group or the sampradaaya. This will be my spiritual army, armed to take the responsibility of the world, to take the responsibility of the world!

You must have heard the viraja homa mantras. I will read out the mantras and meaning, so that you know what commitment you are giving to yourself, to the master, to the dhamma and the sangha. And I also request anybody who is ready to declare for sannyas to make the decision now. I will be asking you to raise your hand now itself, after listening to the mantras.

Viraja homa Mantras:

tilaanjuhomi sarasagm sapishtaan gandhaara mama chitte ramantu svaahaa ||

The mantra means, O! The smell of the Presence, ananda gandha, I offer the sesame seeds which represent the strength of integrity, along with the nectar called 'feeling connection', along with an integrated inner space. Let the strengths of integrity dwell delightfully in my inner space. Let there be blessings. Hail, I offer the oblation!

aavo hiranyam dhanam annapaanagm sarveshagm shriyai svaahaa ||

I offer to the cosmic auspiciousness - the earth, cows, gold, wealth, food and beverages that originally belong to the cosmos. Let there be blessings!

This means that with this offering, you surrender everything - all personal wealth, everything that is 'I' and 'mine'!

shriyam cha lakshmeem cha pushtim cha keertim chaanrinyataam |brahmanyam bahuputrataam|shraddha medhe prajaa sandadaatu svaahaa ||

This means - kindly bless me with power, prosperity, wealth, completion, glory, the ability to enrich, the state of being the chosen inheritor of the cosmos, authenticity, intelligence and people. Let there be blessings! Hail, I offer the oblation!

Here you declare to the cosmos - I am the chosen inheritor of the cosmos! So, everything is at my disposal. You offer all the things you possess, and declare that everything is at your disposal! sannyas means renouncing possessions and keeping everything at your disposal! Understand, sannyas means renouncing possessions and keeping everything at your disposal! You don't possess anything, you don't own anything, but everything is at your disposal. Strength, energy, the power you radiate, everything is in your disposal.

tilaah krishnaah tilaah shwetaah tilaah soumyaah vashaanugaaha| tilaah punantu me paapam yat kinchit duritam mayi svaahaa ||

May the sesame seeds, which are black and white and fit to be offered in sacrifice, which represent the strength of integrity that follows one's will and commitment, complete whatever karmas, sins, negativity and incompletion that is in me. Let there be blessings!

Understand, this offering is to represent the strength of integrity. Even if there are some incompletions and inauthenticities, you declare out of your authenticity of brahmanyam bahuputhrathaam. Listen! Even for one single moment, if one percent of your inner space feels that you are the chosen inheritor of the cosmos, even if you have one reason to feel that you are the chosen inheritor of the cosmos, by holding on to that, you can declare even your incompletion to become completion, your inauthenticity to become authenticity! How many of you cognize this?

Here, the rishi declares, 'Even if it is just one ray of authenticity or integrity, with that strength I am declaring - Let my inauthenticies be burned! Let my lack of integrity be burned!'

Even if it is just a small fire, it can burn a huge pile of cotton! The cotton is like inauthenticity and lack of integrity. The world is irresponsibility; whatever you visualize, selfishness and everything. Even if there is a small fire, it will burn all the lack of integrity and inauthenticity, and then it will take the responsibility and enrich the whole world!

So you don't need to have fear, 'I only have fifty percent integrity and fifty percent authenticity; I don't have the other fifty percent. What can I do?'

I tell you - nobody, nobody, nobody, including me, ever declared brahmanyam bahuputrataam after having one hundred percent authenticity! It is always the strength of one ray of authenticity, one ray of integrity, that makes you declare that you are in the state of brahmanyam bahuputrataam! With the strength of declaration, now burn all the lack of integrity and inauthenticity!

Don't worry if you are in confusion. There is nothing to worry! Confusion is not wrong if you declare to get out of it! It is wrong if you miss, because of confusion. This mantra very clearly shows that the rishi who declared is in confusion! Don't you see? After declaring, brahmanyam bahuputrataam, he says, 'Let my lack of integrity be burned by the will of my integrity, by the power of my integrity.' If he is in completion, he would not even have remembered his lack of integrity! When you are in completion, do you even remember the negativity you left behind? If you remember, there is still incompletion and fear. But even with all that, he is declaring! He is declaring. That is the strength of the rishi. He is teaching us this lesson.

Black sesame seeds represent integrity. White sesame seeds represent authenticity. Offering it into the fire represents responsibility, and the confidence you radiate in your body language is enriching. O my sons, today we are all liberated with this sannyas initiation! brahmanyam bahuputrataam! Because I don't need anything, everything is in my disposal.

chorasyaannam navashraadham brahmaha Gurutalpagaha gosteyagm suraapaanam bhroonahatya tilaa shaantigm shamayantu svaahaa ||

Let the same sesame seeds, which represent the strength of integrity, restore completion and complete all incompletions, and the sin born out of eating the food of a thief, and of eating the food offered during specific funeral rites.

atma me shuddhyantaam jyotiraham virajaavipaapma bhooyaasagm svaahaa ||

Let the sacred fire and the energy invoked in it purify my body, the identity that I project towards others, the identity that I feel as me, and others' perceptions about me. May I become the supreme cosmic light which is pure and free from suffering! Let there be blessings! Hail, I offer the oblation!

atma means all three together: what I feel as me, what I project as me and what others perceive as me. All these three put together is atma.

antaratma me shuddhyantaam jyotiraham virajaavipaapma bhooyaasagm svaahaa||

Let the sacred fire and the energy invoked in it purify my inner space and the identity that I project towards myself. May I become supreme cosmic light, which is pure and free from suffering! Let there be blessings! Hail, I offer the oblation!

Today, the day when the supreme Cosmic Light has expressed itself, we are all becoming supreme Cosmic Light!

These few verses are chanted as paatha bheda. In some sampradaayas (orders), these verses are part of the viraja homa mantra. In some sampradaayas this is part of the next set of mantras. But in our sampradaaya, these verses will be part of the viraja homa mantra

annamaya pranamaya manomaya vijnaanamayam anandamayam atma me shuddhyantaam jyotiraham virajaavipaapma bhooyaasagm swaahaa ||

Let the sacred fire and the energy invoked in it purify the five-fold Self comprised of the sheaths of food, life-energy, mind, intelligence and bliss. May I become the supreme cosmic light, which is pure and free from suffering! Let there be blessings! Hail! I offer the oblation!

agnaye svaahaa | vishvebhyo devebhyo svaahaa | dhruvaaya svaahaa | bhoomaaya svaahaa | dhruvakshitaye svaahaa | Let this oblation be to unto the energy of fire of Agni, to the gods Vishwadeva, Dhruva, Bhooma and Dhruvakshiti. Let there be blessings! Hail!

These are the Viraja homa mantras.

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

From time immemorial, there have been so many different scriptures, spiritual literatures and philosophies that have evolved on planet earth. I can tell you from my experience that these four principles are literally the essence of all these spiritual scriptures, of all these spiritual truths!

I will continue to expand on the four principles that are the essence of life: integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. Today, I will also answer questions related to applying these four principles in your life.

From time immemorial, there are so many different scriptures, spiritual literatures and philosophies that have evolved on the planet earth. I can tell you from my experience that these four principles are literally the essence of all these spiritual scriptures, of all these spiritual truths.

Listen! Just like how the gods and demons churned the milky ocean and finally got the nectar pot, I can say that after churning the ocean of scriptures, the nectar pot I got to share with you all is these four principles.

Everything, whether it is physical health, mental wellness, successful business, success in the profession or enlightenment, ultimately everything can be achieved just with these four principles. Any problem of your life, any conflict in your life can be handled very practically, very efficiently, very skillfully, with these four principles. I can say with my entire experience that these four principles are the essence of all spiritual scriptures!

Listen! The first principle is integrity. Let me define integrity. Integrity means you fulfilling the word and thoughts you give to yourself and to others, and experiencing the state of poornatva, completion, with yourself and with life.

We all know honesty. Honesty is more like ethics, morality. But with the tattva of integrity, I am taking you a step deeper than honesty. With honesty, you only have to honor the words that you give to others. In integrity, you have to honor even the words that you give to yourself. Honesty is not integrity. Integrity is also honesty.

Listen! It is very unfortunate that society teaches you that you have to honor the words that you give to others, but forgets to teach you that you also have to honor the words that you give to yourself. The society treats you more like a utility. That is why it teaches you to honor the words that you give to society, but not the words that you give to yourself !

The words you give to yourself are as important as, or more important than, the words you give to others. Because the flow of your life - the amount of contentment that you feel in your life, the degree of fulfillment that you feel in your life and the experience of fulfillment that you feel in your life, everything depends on the words that you have given to you and the words which you have given to you.

Listen! The words you give to yourself form the bone structure of your life. If you commit with you that you will become a doctor, and if you don't honor that word, and you don't even bother to complete that word inside your heart, that word hangs inside you as a broken commitment given by you. When you break the commitments you give, you lose selfconfidence.

The more commitments you give and break, the more your selfconfidence is lost. You lose confidence in you. When you break the words given to others, it takes away their confidence in you, when you break the words you give to yourself, you lose confidence in yourself. When you don't honor the words you gave to yourself, and don't even bother to complete with them, the broken commitments that hang in your heart take away your self-confidence in life.

Listen! I will give you an example. If you give your word to somebody that you will give them ten lakh rupees, you have to honor that word as if it is your life! Do whatever it takes and get that money to them as per your commitment. If you know that even if you give your life, you will not be able to give them that money, at least tell them ahead of time that you will not be able to do what you said. Tell them that you are taking the word back, and you are completing with them about it. Even completion is integrity. Completion is also integrity.

Listen. Honoring is integrity. If you know that you cannot honor your commitment even if you give your life, only then can you go for completion. When you don't honor the commitments, the broken commitments take away the life happening to you. Life doesn't happen to you when you break the words you give to yourself and to others. When you break the words given to others, they lose confidence in you. When you break the words you give to yourself, you lose confidence in you!

In my life, I have seen thousands of people who suffer with some form of addiction. Addiction does not mean addicted to alcohol or drugs or smoking. There are millions of addictions. There are some people who are addicted to talking. Some people are addicted to sleeping. Understand, those with addictions suffer more due to their low selfconfidence than due to their addiction. A drug addict suffers more because of his broken selfconfidence than his drug addiction. Again and again, he gives a word to himself that he will break the addiction pattern and come out of it, and again he falls into it!

Every time you honor the word you give yourself, self-confidence starts oozing in your musclememory and your bio-memory. When you honor the word you give to others, confidence oozes in your relationships. Others losing confidence in you takes away all the wealth of your life! You

When you honour the word you give to others, confidence oozes in your relationships.

losing confidence in you take away life itself from you! Please listen! Others losing confidence in you takes away the wealth of life from you! You losing confidence in you takes away life itself from you. How many of you are cognizing it?

When you break the words you give to others, they lose confidence in you. When you break the words you give yourself, you lose confidence in you. If you do not honor the words you give to yourself again and again, then the habit of not honoring the words you give yourself becomes part of your muscle-memory. Losing confidence over yourself becomes part of your muscle-memory. That is why even your willpower cannot heal your body.

I see this many times in my experience with people. Some people come out of even cancer with their will-power. Some people can't get out of their simple cough or headache, even with all their meditation and everything. It is because of the power of completion, integrity. If you are in integrity with you, any word you give yourself, even your muscles will listen to it.

The word you give yourself is the bone structure you form for your life. You have to honor it. If you are not able to honor it even by giving your life, at least you have to complete it. The words you utter towards yourself, the words you give to yourself, can be nectar or poison. The words you constantly repeat to yourself, the words you constantly tell yourself, have to be enriching you, inspiring you, exciting you and enlightening you. The words you give to you are aahara, what you consume to create life in you.

The first principle of life is integrity. When you start thinking and speaking with integrity, the ultimate possible inner cleaning happens.

Your inside becomes clean. Your antaryami, inner Presence, starts shining. Listen! As of now, your inner space is like an unattended, spoilt land with so many thorny bushes and weeds. That is why, whenever you make any decision in your business or any plan about your future, a corner of your mind always laughs at you and makes fun of you. It looks at you like a comedian. How much ever you try to be a hero, you judge yourself only as a comedian. You perceive yourself only as a comedian. You may struggle, struggle and struggle to be a hero, but you perceive yourself only as a comedian - because you constantly broke the words you gave yourself ! When you plan now for your future, or you try to give any word to you, you yourself don't have confidence in you because breaking the word you give yourself has already become your muscle memory. When you start thinking and speaking with integrity, the ultimate possibility and positivity happen in you!

Listen! You can run your life just in the level of mom- shop or pop-shop; that does not need great integrity. Because your whole investment is just a few hundred rupees, just a few dollars. Your whole income is just a few dollars or rupees. Then you may not need integrity. But if you want to live life - when I say life I mean LIFE - if you want to live life in a real way, then integrity, especially with yourself, is the first principle you need to start living.

The words you constantly repeat to yourself have to be enriching you, inspiring you, exciting you and enlightening you.

Today, I will expand completely on this one principle, integrity.

Whether you are happening to life, or life is happening to you, is the question here. You can happen to life in your scale, or life can happen to you in its scale. When you try to take over life, when you try to take over the vishva, it is more like trying to possess life. When vishva tries to take your roopa, it is vishvaroopa, the experience of universal Life. When you try to take over vishva, you try to possess, politically manipulate and control. But when vishva tries to take your roopa, vishvaroopa happens. The word you give yourself should be honored as the very life, life, life!

Integrity with yourself is the first thing you need to do in your life. Now, sit and list out all the words you gave yourself which you did not honor. At least now, complete with them. Tell yourself that you will not be able to fulfill them or honor them. Free yourself from the word you gave yourself. When you complete or honor the word you gave to you, you experience tremendous self-confidence, which is the base of the life that happens in you. With integrity, your relationship with you and your relationship with sangha, your relationship with others, starts. Your family is also your sangha; your place of work is your sangha, your place of profession is your sangha. Your circle of friends is your sangha. Your Facebook friends are your Facebook sangha. Whatever you do with people becomes sangha. That is why satsanga becomes very important in your life.

If you are not in satsanga, be very clear that you are in dussanga (bad company). Either you are in satsangha or in dussanga. You can never be in nissanga until you are enlightened.

I want to repeat the essence of today's satsang. Identify wherever you are in integrity with the words you gave to others and to yourself. I

repeat again and again, because you don't listen! Until you listen, I will repeat, I will continue to repeat!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you.

When you complete or honor the word you gave to you, you experience tremendous self-confidence.

Every one of us is greedy for powers that leaders have, the powers that gods and higher souls have, but unfortunately no one wants to take the responsibility for it. I tell you: the world has abundance. Neither wealth nor extraordinary powers are restricted when you take responsibility. When you start becoming responsible, powers, wealth, spiritual powers, all the auspicious things, start expressing through you intensely.

Today, I will expand on the concept of Responsibility.

Responsibility means living, thinking, speaking, acting and responding to life from the truth that you are the source of everything happening inside and around you, and therefore you are responsible for all happenings inside and outside you!

Let me repeat. Responsibility means living, responding, thinking, speaking, acting and reacting to life from the truth that you are the source of everything happening in and around you, and therefore you are responsible for all the happenings in and around you.

The biggest question we now have in our mind is, 'How can I be responsible for everything happening around me? I can be held responsible for what is happening inside me. How can I be held responsible for what is happening outside me? For example, if an accident happens in my life,

how can I be responsible?'

Everybody asks this question. Let me answer you.

• G A person who does not feel responsible even for his own actions is an animal. He lives in a very low-level consciousness!
• G A person who feels responsible for his own actions is a human being. He lives in a middle-level consciousness.
• G A person who takes responsibility even for others' actions is divine. He lives in leadership consciousness, ishvaratva.

Sometimes, you may not be the reason for some happenings. But if it is affecting your life, you ARE responsible for those happenings. Just because you are not the reason as per your logic, you can't say that you are not responsible in truth. You may wonder, how can I be responsible? You need to know that unless you take responsibility, you are neither going to improve the situation, nor expand in inner space.

Vivekānanda says very beautifully, 'Take more and more responsibility; your shoulders will become stronger and stronger.'

In any field, freedom is the basic condition for growth. Responsibility brings the experience of freedom. With responsibility, your consciousness expands. Every one of us is greedy for powers that leaders have, the powers that gods and higher souls have. But unfortunately, no one wants to take the responsibility for it. I tell you: the world has abundance. Neither the wealth nor the extraordinary powers are restricted when you take responsibility. When you start becoming responsible, powers, wealth, spiritual powers, all the auspicious things, start expressing

Listen! Let me define responsibility. Responding to you and the world from the best possibility is responsibility. Responsibility not only awakens leadership qualities in you but also awakens leadership consciousness in you. Qualities are different, consciousness is different. In the corporate life, in the outer world, if you are taking responsibility for some position or post, you may express leadership qualities. But only when you take responsibility for everything happening in and around you do you express leadership consciousness.

When you expand, expand and expand, the commitments and responsibilities you hold in your being for yourself go on expanding and expressing all the possibilities. You either react or respond. You only have two ways of relating with the world. If you feel that you are not responsible, you react. If you feel that you are responsible, you respond. When all your actions are responses and not reactions, you are a karma yogi; no karma binds you, you are living in completion and expressing completion. When you feel that you are not responsible, you react. Reacting puts you in bondage. Responding keeps you in completion!

Only when you express all the possibilities out of liberation cognition, are you living your life. Life is

A person who takes responsibility even for others' actions is divine.

lived when jeevanmukta sambhaavana, the space of possibility, the space of leadership becomes your lifestyle! I tell you, nothing else is required for you to be a leader; just leadership consciousness is enough. When Vivekānanda walked the length and breadth of Bharat, he did not have anything other than leadership consciousness in his life. But wherever he went, kings washed his feet, gave their own thrones for him to sit, received his blessings and guidance and requested his spiritual support.

It is responsibility which makes you realize all possibility. It is leadership consciousness which brings not just success, but fulfillment in you. I tell you, I have seen thousands of politicians who have power without having the state of leadership consciousness. Sometimes, people sit on the throne or get the power and become power centers, without having the state of a leader. I have seen them dying in depression or suffering in suffocation, due to the power! They never enjoy the power. Unless you achieve the state, the status is a liability! If you have not achieved the state, the status binds you and also brings suffering to others. The state of responsibility, the state of the leader, ishvaratva - leadership consciousness has to be achieved first.

When you do not carry the consciousness of leader, even if you get the powers of the leader, you are bound by it. You will also bind the people who come under you, accepting you as leader. This is one of the biggest diseases with which Bharat is suffering. There are many seats which are occupied by people who are not responsible enough for the seat they occup. From the individual house, to official power, political power and media power - in every field, many people who have not achieved the state get the status. They become a liability!

Leadership consciousness is an independent intelligence; it cannot be hidden from others. Once you have it, the whole world will know

that you have it; the world simply listens to you! You do not need any power, political strength or infrastructure for the world to know that you are a leader. Even if you walk on the street, you will stand tall - as a MAN among men. And the world will respect you!

I want all my swamis and swaminis to create their resume with a photograph! You can all post the way in which you want to express your unique character or energy. It should be published on the website. See, each one of you represent one ray of my energy. Somebody represents my intellect, somebody represents my devotion and somebody represents my being. Each one of you represents one ray of me.

Listen! If I am the sun, each one of you are the rays; each one of you represents a ray. So present yourself as the ray you represent - what you are offering to the world, what are the ways in which you are contributing and enriching the world. This is the statement you want to make to the world about yourself, the ahankara you are projecting. So, the anyakara of the world will start evolving around this. So be very clear on what you are!

And I tell you - you have the full freedom to declare that you are enlightened. You have complete freedom to declare this. Because when you declare, you are responsible, and you will have

It is leadership consciousness which brings not just success, but fulfillment in you.

to live it. You will have to demonstrate it. When you declare that you are enlightened, you should be able to stretch yourself to the anyakaras you create. Declaring enlightenment is not more power, it is more responsibility! Clear? So it is your individual choice. You can declare any day that you are enlightened. You are after all a swami now. You are an independent entity by existence. You can move the cosmos as you want. If the cosmos is not moving as you want, just create another one, that's all!

The space of positivity, possibility, ishvaratva and enlightenment is your space. So from there, you can declare anything you want, and make it into reality, in any way you want. And anybody who wants to be part of this order can start applying and preparing yourself to be part of this order. Great!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share and explode in eternal bliss – THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM!

Part 6: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

Do not think that if you only enrich yourself, you will experience completion and fulfillment in life. No! Enriching others is a basic necessity of your life, for experiencing fulfillment. When you enrich those with whom life is happening to you, only then will life be complete and enriched for you. Enriching others making others life alive!

Today, I will expand on the fourth principle of life, enriching. Please listen!

Enriching means you taking the responsibility with integrity and authenticity that you are committed to continuously enriching, which is expanding yourself and life in and around you. Enriching means continuously expanding you with these four principles, and continuously enriching others to expand with these four principles.

Listen! This is the first question that will usually come in peoples' minds, especially, if you are a spiritual seeker. 'Why should I enrich others with these principles? If I live these principles, is that not enough? Why do I need to enrich others with these principles?' Most of you must be having this question!

You should understand. life happens to us outside us! Consciousness may be inside, but life is happening outside! If you are just sitting inside a cave in a deep jungle, you eat some forest fruits and drink the Ganga water and sleep and you don't see people at all, then you may not need to enrich others. But even then, you need to enrich the tree which gives you fruit and the river which gives you water! In our life, in practical life, life is happening to us outside us!

Let's analyze this, internalize this and understand. manana - let us do manana - contemplation, and understand this. Who are you? You are just a collection of all your identities. I can take any one example. Any one of you would like to volunteer? Come to the mike. Let me analyze your life and give you the right way of enriching.

Swamiji: Let us see. What are the identities which put together, make you who you are?

Devotee: Daughter, mother, wife, daughter-inlaw, friend, teacher, student, devotee, disciple, entrepreneur… that's all.

Swamiji: Now, I will take her example and tell you. See, if your personality is one hundred percent, each one of these identities has some percentage in your personality. Maybe, the identity that you are a daughter occupies twenty percent; the identity that you are a wife occupies twenty to thirty percent; the identity that you are a disciple may occupy some twenty to thirty percent and the

If you give up on you, you fall into depression. If you give up on others, you fall into loneliness. Don't give up on you and others.

identity that you are a teacher may occupy ten percent. These different identities occupy certain percentages of your being. Am I right?

So now, your identity as a daughter can get fulfilled only if your father is enriched! Life can happen to you in the ultimate form as a daughter, only if your father is enriched. Life can happen to you completely as a wife, only if your husband is enriched. So if your personality is one hundred percent, each person has a share. Only if each person involved in your personality, in your relationships, with whom life is happening to you, only if all of them are enriched, will your life be complete and enriched.

Do not think that if you only enrich yourself, you will experience completion and fulfillment in life. No! Enriching others is a basic necessity of your life, for experiencing fulfillment. You can never be complete or fulfilled if all the people who are involved in your life are not complete or fulfilled. Only when they are all enriched with these four principles, you will experience enrichment with these four principles. When you enrich those with whom life is happening to you, only then will life be complete and enriched for you. Enriching others making others life alive!

Swami Vivekananda says beautifully, when he defines the ideal for his organization, 'atmano mokshaartham jagat hitaaya cha' - for the sake of the world's well-being and for the sake of one's own liberation. Please listen! He is not just saying 'for one's own liberation'; he says, 'for the sake of the well-being of the world also – 'jagat hitaaya cha'.

Again and again, seekers have this problem, 'Why should I enrich others' life?' This is one of the biggest problems we have. 'I should live, I understand that, but why I should bother about others? After all,

the world is an illusion!' You can realize the truth that the world is an illusion only when you are in completion; only when the poorna is experienced! poornamadah poornamidam - only out of poorna, is poorna experienced! Only out of completion does completion happen. Listen, only when you enrich others are you enriched! I can tell you one thing from my experience. Only when you start teaching others do you realize the truth completely.

There is a proverb in Sanskrit: 'When you listen to the truth from the master, you only understand twenty five percent. When you clarify your doubts, you understand fifty percent. When you discuss among your friends, you understand seventy five percent. Only when you start teaching and sharing with others do you understand one hundred percent!

Vivekananda says that unless you enrich those with whom life is happening to you, you can never experience fulfillment. Especially the people who are involved in your life, like your employees, boss, father, mother, whoever is involved in your life. If they are not radiating these principles, you are not going to be experiencing fulfillment, you are not going to be experiencing the truth, you are not going to be experiencing completion, enriching does not happen to you. Unless you enrich others, you will never be complete, because life is happening to you outside you!

You can realize the truth that the world is an illusion only when you are in completion.

Please listen, only consciousness is happening to you inside; life itself is happening to you outside. Because consciousness is inside, you think that life happens to you inside. The source may be inside, but the happening is outside!

Enriching is taking responsibility with integrity and authenticity, that you are committed to continuously enriching yourself and enriching others. Not giving upon you and people - this is the moola mantra. Not giving up on you and people! I tell you, if you give up on others without enriching them, you will give up on yourself. You will give up on yourself ! If you don't have the patience to continuously enrich others, without giving up on them, you will N O T have the patience to enrich you without giving up on you!

When you give up on you, what happens to you physically is disease, what happens to you mentally is depression, and what happens to you consciously is bondage! When you give up on yourself physically, your health will be broken. When you give up on yourself mentally, you will fall into depression. When you give up on yourself spiritually, you will fall into bondage. When you don't give up on yourself, you build the yogic body, Vedic mind and enlightened consciousness. When you don't give up on others, you also create the same for others. I tell you, if you have the pattern of giving up on others, you will give up on you. Each person that you have not given up on in your life is one extra pair of hands that you have Each person you gave up on in your life is one broken hand!

Listen! Enriching happens to you only when you are also enriching others. Don't give up on others. If you give up on you, you fall into depression. If you give up on others, you fall into loneliness. Don't give up on you and don't give up on others. This is the essence of what I wanted to share with you all today.

From tomorrow, I will continue to expand on how to create a beautiful relationship with these four principles and how to apply these four principles and create fulfillment in the areas of health, wealth, life - in every line!

Please listen! Expansion in your consciousness happens only when enriching happens to the people around you. Without enriching others, completion and fulfillment will never be experienced inside you, however much you may try. With this understanding, even the business you do will be a great fulfillment. Until you experience fulfillment in others who are living around you, your inner space can never settle in completion.

I bless you all to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

When you give up on you, what happens to you physically is disease, mentally is depression, and consciously is bondage.

With integrity, you will experience the relationship with yourself, for the first time. Until you align yourself to integrity, even you do not know what you really want in your life! Until you align yourself to integrity, even you do not know what you want in your life. You want something and you are doing something else!

Today, I will expand on how these four principles of life can enrich you in your relationships.

The first principle of life is integrity. Just take a few minutes and visualize - if everyone around you talks to you with integrity and speaks only the truth to you and relates with you with integrity, how nice your life will be! Just take a few seconds and visualize this.

How many of you suffered in your life because people around you lied to you or did not have integrity towards you? Raise your hand.

Then, when you have suffered, why do you want to give the same suffering to others? We expect sympathy and integrity from others. But unfortunately, we ourselves don't live it. You expect integrity from others, but you do not feel the need to practice integrity in your own life.

Listen! I want all of you to know that integrity is not being promoted by me, as a morality or ethics. I am not promoting integrity as a morality or ethics. integrity is much more than morality and ethics. I am offering integrity to you as a cosmic principle, as a cosmic law! When you are integrated, so many resources which are only there in you as a potential suddenly becomes a reality in you!

With integrity, you will experience a relationship with yourself for the first time! Until you align yourself to integrity, even you do not know what you really want in your life! Until you align yourself to integrity, even you do not know what you want in your life. You want something and you are doing something else.

Yesterday one of my ananda yogam students sent me a question about freedom. He was asking, 'Swamiji, you said freedom means aligning the possibilities you are creating with your free will. Is this freedom?'

You are right, but your question needs to have a little more integrity! If you start living integrity, you will have the question itself from a deeper angle. Let me explain.

Please listen! When you give a word to yourself and you honor it, three things happen. First, your bio-memory will be aware while you give words to yourself; second, it will decide to remember whenever you give words to yourself; third, it will have tremendous self-confidence about the words you give to you.

Sometime people come and tell me, 'Swamiji, I forget the words that I give to me.' It is like you when you were a kid - when your kids give you words but you don't take them seriously. Why? Because you know that they won't fulfill them! They will say, 'I will wake up in the morning.' But, you know that they will not do it, because they have failed many times. So you don't take them seriously. In the same way, when you have not honored the words you gave to you many times, not only do you not take them seriously, you don't even bother to remember them. How many of you cognize what I am saying?

Many times, many times, because you built the pattern of not honoring the words you give to yourself, not only do you not bother to fulfill them, but you also do not bother to execute or remember them. Every word you talk to yourself is a commitment that you are giving yourself. With this understanding, you should think. It means, that you have so much of awareness, it needs to be infused while you think, while you give words to you.

Listen! It is unfortunate that society constantly reminds you to fulfill the words you give to society, but it does not teach you the basic truth that you need to fulfill and honor the words you give to yourself. Many times, you don't honor the words you give yourself. You don't even bother to remember the words you give yourself, because you built the pattern of not honoring the words you give yourself !

In Spandakarika and Vignana Bhairava Tantra, when Mahadeva (Bhairava) teaches Bhairavi, he brings in

With integrity, you will experience a relationship with yourself for the first time!

SECTION 1 - LIFE IS EXPANSION new - PART 1.indd 261 05-07-2013 15:27:32

this point again and again. In almost twenty meditation techniques he says, 'By self-remembrance, enlightenment is achieved!'

Please listen! The first step towards self-remembrance is being integrated with yourself ! You should honor every word you give yourself, you should remember it. Only then will you have a beautiful relationship with yourself.

I tell you, if you are not complete with yourself, you can never have a vacation in your life. You may go to any beach and lie down, you may go to any resort and lie down, you may go to any tourist spot, you may go to any spa and try to have a vacation, but I guarantee you - if you are not complete with you, you cannot have a vacation! You simply cannot have a vacation if you are not complete with you!

Even if you lie down in a beach or sit in a park trying to enjoy the evening sunset, you are carrying an incomplete being. So, you will constantly be haunted by you, harassed by you. You carry the incomplete part of you, in you. You cannot leave that guy anywhere, no matter where you try to escape. Escaping from you is a race you will always lose!

So, the first step you need to do to have a vacation, is not booking your resort or flight ticket or golf course. No! Do completion with you. Do completion with you! That is the first step you need to do, if you want a vacation in your life.

It is so unfortunate that human beings don't do first things first. First, have a beautiful relationship with you. The best relationships start with you having a great relationship with you. How many of you cognize this truth?

Listen! Listen! LISTEN! I still have not asked the question. Listen! You prepared yourself for a great vacation; you booked your tickets, you booked your resort, and the whole family is ready. You go there for your vacation, but because your incompletions are haunting you, you are only more depressed, more disturbed and you come back to your work more tired. How many of you have experienced this? Raise your hand.

Now, first make a list of all the commitments you gave yourself and did not fulfill. Sit and write them down. Complete them first. If you have already honored them, great! If you are going to honor it, commit to honor it within a clear time-frame. If you are not able to honor, if you feel that you will not be able to honor it even by giving your life, then at least complete with yourself ! Relieve yourself from that commitment; consciously fulfill it. It is so unfortunate that you care so much about the words you give to others due to your fear or greed, but you don't care for the words you give yourself. Only if you complete with you, only if you are complete with you, you will be able to even be in the space of self-remembrance, restful awareness, atma smarana.

When I teach people techniques about selfremembrance, they come back and complain to me, 'Swamiji, I am not able to constantly be in remembrance of myself, of my atman. I drift off

The first step towards selfremembrance is being integrated with yourself!

into other ideas and subjects. Why?'

Listen! It is because of your incompletions that you are not in restful awareness when you remember yourself. The first thing you need to do is complete with you, build a relationship of restful awareness with you, a relationship of completion with you. The words you give to you and to others have to be integrated. You need to bring integrity within you. Only then, the technique of atma vichaara given by vedanta, the technique of self-remembrance given by Buddha, the self-remembrance techniques given by Mahadeva in Vijnana Bhairava Tantra, everything will produce the result of atma jnaana in you, enlightenment in you. If you do not have completion with you, how can you remember yourself beyond the incomplete identities? Your incomplete identities are responsible for the constant inauthenticity, the lack of integrity and irresponsible thoughts happening in you.

When I was young, I used to sit in samadhi for hours together. At first, my classmates used to make fun of me. After a few years, they started asking me, 'We do not know what you think when you are sitting quietly, but we are really shocked that you are able to sit for hours together, silently.' I said 'What is there in this? It is my body and my mind. I just tell myself to sit and I sit, that's all!' Only when my classmates expressed their inability to sit with themselves did I realize that to be able to sit with yourself silently is one of the great gifts you can have. First, you have to build a relationship with you.

Today, the truth I wanted all of you to experience is this. Unless you complete with you, you will not have restful awareness. Restful awareness with you is very important. I tell you, restful awareness with yourself is not just wealth, it is a basic right for you. In the cosmic constitution, restful awareness is your basic right. Enlightened beings

land on the planet earth to ensure that your basic right is restored to you. I am defending the cosmic constitution continuously, to ensure that your basic rights are restored to you, and you reclaim your basic rights.

Restful awareness with you is your basic right, and I proclaim that it is possible for you to reclaim your basic right. Self-completion, svapoornatva, is the direct method to reclaim your self-completion, your space of restful awareness.

How many of you cognize with integrity and authenticity that self-completion makes you experience restful awareness with you? Raise your hand.

I tell you, this is your basic right. Reclaim it and live it.

I bless you all to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Unless you complete with you, you will not have restful awareness.

Human beings unfortunately do not look for permanent, real solutions. They only want consolation, not solutions. That is the main reason why the teachers who give temporary solutions are more popular; it feels more like a fast-food restaurant! But I tell you, permanent solutions are easier and quicker than temporary solutions. The mind which goes for temporary solutions has a certain sickness, and will not execute even the temporary solutions!

Today I will speak on how being in integrity expands your relationships with others. Yesterday I was expanding on how integrity directly creates a relationship with you.

Please listen. Relationship is of different levels. The first level is being able to sit with you and be in peace with you and in completion with you.

You need to understand integrity. I will give the explanation once more. integrity is the most powerful, profound, immediate solution.

First, integrity makes you feel comfortable with you, because completion makes you feel comfortable with you. When you are complete with you, so many wonderful things start happening. Completion with you means that the possibility for creating new disease disappears. All the disease you create newly is from the source of incompletion.

integrity stops you from creating new disease. Authenticity heals even the disease you created earlier. When you start thinking with integrity, with awareness, every word you give yourself becomes a commitment that you give yourself. It means that every desire you have is a commitment you have given to yourself !

So listen! When you know that every word you give yourself is a commitment you make with you, and you have to honor it, you will only give conscious commitments to you, you will only say conscious words to you.

It's really unfortunate! You have so much knowledge and awareness about so many things happening in so many places around the world, but you do not have the knowledge about what is happening inside you. You are not aware of what is happening inside you!

When you bring integrity in your thinking, the first thing is that you will know what is happening inside you. integrity makes you feel comfortable with you, because completion makes you feel comfortable with you. If you have not honored the words you give to yourself, they remain as a hangover in you and continue to burn you with incompletion. If you don't honor the words you give to yourself, you lose self-confidence and self-respect. If you don't honor the words you give to others, you will lose others' confidence in you and their respect over you.

Listen! Everything in your life is the totality of honoring the words you give to yourself and to others, because the respect you carry for you and the respect others carry for you, the confidence you have on you and the confidence others have for you - these two put together is your life.

When you honor the word you give to others, not only will they have confidence and respect for you, but even the relationship itself exists only then. Please understand, each human being carries so much of energy that even if you have an integrated relationship with only one human being, your life can be different. Every person with whom you have an integrated relationship adds strength to you - not just mentally, like confidence, moral boost or social power; but even consciously. They add strength to you.

If you are having an integrated relationship with your mother, she consciously adds strength to you. If you have an integrated relationship with your father, he consciously adds strength to you. Every individual with whom you have an integrated relationship consciously enriches you.

Listen! When you have incompletion with your mother, there is every possibility that the left part of your body will be paralyzed in the latter parts of your life. If you have incompletion with your father, the right part can get paralyzed. Because it is your mother's bio-memory and your father's bio-energy that you carry in your body!

You need to know that relationships are not something external. It is an expression of yourself, how you feel with you. The relationship you carry with you is projected as the relationship with the

Relationships are an expression of yourself, how you feel with you.

world. Just visualize. If everyone who relates with you is integrated, how happy your life will be! Whenever they are not integrated, how much you have suffered!

When you bring integrity by either honoring or completing the word you give to others, others will have so much confidence in you, and you will have so much confidence in others. The conflicts in your life will drop drastically.

When you bring integrity, the conflicts in your life will drop drastically. Success happens in life, fulfillment happens in life, when the conflicts reduce. When the conflicts reduce, life energy starts oozing in you.

Unfortunately, human beings don't look for permanent, real solutions. They only want consolation, not solutions. That is the main reason why the teachers who give temporary solutions are more popular; it feels more like a fast-food restaurant! But I tell you, permanent solutions are easier and quicker than temporary solutions. The mind which goes for temporary solutions has a certain sickness, and will not execute even the temporary solutions. If you are asking for temporary solutions, that itself shows that your mind suffers with the laziness pattern, the boredom pattern which will not allow you to practice even simple, temporary solutions.

I tell you, even though the permanent solutions look like they may take time, if you start living them, they are real, instantaneous solutions; they give results immediately. And for short-term solutions, because of the loopholes in them, and because the mind which asks for short-term solutions has an innate boredom and laziness to transform itself, it will not allow you to practice even the short-term solutions. How many of you picked up yoga or gym or running as a short-term solution for a

certain problem? You will see that you will not be doing it for more than a few days! I can guarantee you.

Listen! I am giving you permanent, but instantaneous, immediate solutions. Listen! These words are not the words you need to practice for years to get results. Start practicing integrity now. From today, you will see the confidence of others in you, and your own confidence in you. Because integrity is such a powerful process, the moment you are integrated, everyone around you knows you are living in integrity.

Listen! Permanent solutions are easier and quicker than temporary solutions, because the mind from which you receive temporary solutions is itself not in integrity. So any solution it gives will not be a real solution. Decide the solutions only based on solving the problem, eternally.

I tell you, when you bring integrity in your relationship with others, honoring the words you gave or completing the words you gave, the way others look at you will be transformed immediately. How many of you experienced this in your life, when you restored integrity with others? The way they look at you is immediately transformed, and the way you look at you is transformed. integrity directly restores the way you look at you and the way you look at others. Lack of integrity makes

When you bring integrity in your relationship with others, the way others look at you will be transformed immediately.

even an institution as individual, lonely and alone. integrity makes even one individual an organized organization.

Listen! Lack of integrity makes even an organization into broken, lonely individuals. integrity can make even one individual an organized organism. When you live integrity, you go on expanding in your view and you go on expanding in others' view.

How many of you felt so much self-confidence and self-respect when you started living in integrity with you and others? This self-confidence is called atma bala, the strength that comes from the self. Completion with yourself is the strength of the atman. When you bring integrity in yourself, the way others look at you will transform immediately. integrity brings so much of strength and power in you.

In an earlier Kumbh Mela, I saw a sadhu (holy man) living with one hand raised for more than ten years! I asked him, 'Why did you take up this tapas?' There are so many kinds of tapas! For example, there is another sadhu who has been standing on one leg for the last twelve years! So I asked him, 'Why did you take up this tapas?' He said that he used to study Bhagavad Gita under his Guru. One day, he slept during the class. So his Guru told him, 'Keep your hand raised, so that you will not fall asleep!' So the Guru gave him this instruction. This man kept his hand up so that he will not fall asleep. And before the class ended, the Guru suddenly had a heart attack and attained mahasamadhi; he passed away! The sadhu told me, 'Because my Guru has not told me to drop my hand, I cannot drop my hand. He told me to keep my hand up. That's it.' And he is still keeping his hand up, and he says he has conquered sleep completely!

When I met him he must have been around sixty. He had been keeping

his hand raised for the last thirty years! I could see one thing in him - such power of integrity. I could see that his tongue had vak-siddhi. He is a siddha purusha. Because of his commitment to himself, because of his integrity, he had developed vaksiddhi, in the course of his tapas period.

I tell you, these are extremes. I am not even asking you to go to these extremes. All I am saying is that when you bring integrity in your relationships, honoring the words you give to others and yourself, the friendliness in your relationships suddenly increases. Demands in your relationships break the relationships and make them dry. Friendliness in your relationships adds juice to the relationship and keeps it stable and growing. Above all, the relationships become worthy of living.

When you bring integrity in your relationship with others, it goes on expanding you. integrity is nothing but conscious planning, for completion of your life. Now, your life is like a car without a GPS. You don't know where you have to reach, you don't know which direction you have to go, and you have a vehicle which you cannot get down from, when you are driving! Even if you reach, it is more like an accident! integrity is like knowing the direction, the goal, having the GPS and driving consciously. You know for sure that you will reach it. If you reach without integrity, it is an accident. If you do not reach with integrity, it is an accident!

Completion with yourself is the strength of the atman.

Without integrity, you don't even know where you are going, and at what speed you are driving. You see a huge hill in front of you and if you continue to drive, you may go and hit the hill! But you still imagine that you will reach a beach to have a vacation! The possibilities you create and the will you have are not only unaligned, they are traveling in opposite directions! You try to realize paradoxes as paradises. In lack of integrity, you do not know the difference between paradise and paradox.

I tell you, only when you bring integrity, will you even know the real purpose of your life, the real purpose of each relationship in your life, the real purpose of why you should have money, why you should have relationships, why you should have meditation, why you should have a Guru, why you should have whatever you need to have. All of that will become clear only when you have integrity.

Essence of what I wanted to share with you all today is this. Bringing integrity with others is the only way relationships can be created. And it is not a long-term process or long-term solution; it is an immediate solution, a permanent solution. We always think that a long-term solution means that it is also very difficult to execute. This is not true! Here, integrity is the permanent and immediate solution, which you can practice now.

Only when you start living these tattvas in your life, and pull these tattvas into your life, does life start happening in you. All of you please understand these four tattvas and start living them.

All my blessings are with you. Let all of you have successful relationships, wealth, health, the space of positivity, possibility, leadership and enlightenment. I am with you all!

Any conflict experienced in your inner space reminds your inauthenticities in relationships to you. When you have the idea that relationships are nothing but what you experience with a few people, you have very nar row, low ideas. When you bring integrity, it will heal the ignorance you had in the zone of relationships.

Today, I will expand on how integrity and authenticity expand your relationships and enrich you to have fulfillment. I wanted to make three statements about relationships.

First, relationship does not only mean the few human beings who live around you. When I use the word 'relationship', I mean your relationship with your health, your money, your success, your life, with nature, with everything!

Second, you also have a very inauthentic way of dreaming about your life. You just want to have a few cozy relationships around you, and that is enough. You are complete with your relationships and relationship dimension that is completely wrong and inauthentic!

Third, only when you expand yourself with integrity and authenticity, anything and anybody who comes into your breathing space will have

a conflict-free and complete relationship. You will experience fulfillment and success.

'Relationships' are not related to quantity, but related to quality!

Please listen, the last statement takes the concept of relationship to a completely different level altogether. Let us start from the beginning. I will expand on these principles.

When you bring integrity, you will heal all the broken relationships, the conflicts which you are creating, and created in the past. Listen! When you bring integrity, the conflicts which you are creating in the present and the conflicts which you created in the past, get healed.

Let me repeat these three statements which I made, and then you will understand them one by one.

LISTEN! You need to understand the principle of relationships in a larger context. Any conflict experienced in your inner space reminds you of your inauthenticities in relationships. When you have the idea that relationships are nothing but what you experience with a few people, you have very narrow and low ideas. When you bring integrity, you will heal all the damage you caused inside and outside you, due to relationships. It will heal the ignorance you had in the zone of relationships.

When you bring integrity, the conflicts that you created in the past and are creating in the present, get healed

Listen, your ignorance in the space of relationships not only causes damage in others, it also causes damage in you. Be very clear, when you cause damage in your spouse, mother or father, you cause damage in you, because your father, mother or spouse - all the relationships you carry decide the confidence and the energy that you have about you! Your inauthenticity is exposed to you again and again, whenever there is a conflict in relationships. Whenever you experience conflict in any relationship, your inauthenticity is exposed to you.

Listen! Bring integrity as a principle to live, as a space from where you will operate. I am not just making a statement. integrity should not only be there in your actions, but also in the space from where you act, from where your cognition happens!

I am so happy that we reclaimed our integrity in the sangha. In the initial years, when I started the sangha, I used to be very clear with the program participants about integrity and responsibility. Unfortunately, in course of time, when thousands started gathering for programs, I was not able to spend time with each person and remind them about integrity and responsibility. But now, by the divine grace, when I took the responsibility and put my foot down, we are once again reminding people about the strength of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching.

I can see that from January 1st 2013, when we entered a new decade, we also entered a space where we will never decay anymore. In 2003, we were born; in 2013, we have become mature. I want all of you to understand, it is not just action. It is the space from which you operate. When you bring integrity as a space inside you, as the space in which you perceive, experience and operate in, so much of healing suddenly happens to you and to others who are living around you,

who are fortunately or unfortunately relating with you.

Listen! One of the important healing factors in relationships is the other person feeling confident that you are transformed, that you are going to be different in the future. To tell you honestly, nobody is too serious about the past hurt. Everybody's expectation is about what the future will be. If you give them the confidence and assurance that the future will really be transformed, authentic and responsible, there is nobody who is not ready to heal their past or drop their past. Everyone is waiting, waiting to drop their past and relate with you in a new way. Who is interested in carrying the past wounds? Just like how you are waiting to drop the past and have a new future, everyone is waiting to drop the past and create a new future.

When you bring integrity, you will first give the confidence to others that they can expect a new you in their life, a new being in their life, a transformed being in their life. Suddenly, even you start trusting that your transformation is real! Yesterday I was reading the status update of one of my disciples on Facebook. She writes, 'I am not able to relate with the person I was. I am not even able to remember that person!' She has signed her post with the spiritual name I gave her a few days ago. When I read this, I felt, 'Wow, so beautiful!' When you feel that you are not able to relate with

When you bring integrity, you will first give the confidence to others that they can expect a new you in their life.

your old personality after bringing these four principles into your life, I tell you, your transformation is real, and it is going to be permanent.

Even you feel that you are a new being and you can't relate with your old being. So others will also naturally respond. There is nobody who wants to carry on with the old past, and hurt the future. Just like you are intelligent enough to drop the past and get into the future, everyone is intelligent enough, even though you don't believe that others are intelligent enough to drop the past and go into the future!

There is one more thing that you need to know. Only after integrity heals the damages you caused to yourself and others in the past does the real relationship start. Your authenticity has to come into play. It has to start the drama now. Authenticity has the power to expand your possibilities of relating with anything, with anything. I could see some of my swamis, they are suddenly able to relate with anybody!

Authenticity gives you the power to relate with anybody and anything! When you have authenticity; even when you touch a flower, your touch will be different. When you touch a hammer to crack the stone, to break the stone, the touch will be different. When you touch a flower for worship, the touch will be different. Authenticity brings different qualities and different dimensions to relate with everything with which you are relating. Even you feel that you are new, you cannot relate with your old being. So, others will also naturally respond in the same way. With integrity and authenticity, you will experience the new you in you, which will be new, new, new, new, new for everyone! I have seen in my experience that when authenticity happens, you are ready to spontaneously relate with every new being who is coming in your presence. And I have also seen some people running away from society and hiding themselves in caves in the name of meditation. Listen!

Sitting in a cave and meditating is not wrong, but if you are doing it for the wrong reason, it is wrong. If you are inauthentic and unable to handle the people who come in your space authentically and spontaneously, you just want to escape from all relationships, and so you go and hide in the caves, it is inauthentic. Everything, everything has to happen out of completion!

Living out of completion is your birthright. The first thing that every human being should do when you start living your life is to find the root thought patterns which are causing you suffering, and complete them. That completion gives you the courage to relate with human beings with integrity and authenticity.

People are afraid to relate with other human beings. Even when you go to meet your friend, you prepare all the statements you have to tell him. Why can't you be spontaneous? Even to meet with your friend, why do you need so much of preparathion? Why do you need so much of inauthentic strategy planning? Why do you need so much of nonintegrity and verbal preparation?

It is so unfortunate; the trust level with your friends has dropped because the trust between you and you has dropped. You are afraid even with you, you don't spontaneously sit even with you; you rehearse and talk even to you! That is why

Authenticity gives you the power to relate with anybody and anything.

you can't talk spontaneously with others. Everything has to happen out of completion. When things happen out of completion, it leads to completion. The reason also has to be right, not just the action.

When you are ready to stretch yourself to honor all the words you gave to you, you will easily stretch yourself to honor all the words you gave to others.

You always think, 'Oh, honoring the words I gave to me is very easy. But honoring the words I gave to others is very difficult.' No! You think satisfying you is very easy and satisfying others is very difficult. I say, 'No! You are wrong. Satisfying others is very easy. Satisfying you is the real job you need to do!'

Why do you think you prepare the whole dialogue even when you go to meet your close friend? It is not just to satisfy him. When you come back after the meeting, you will think about whether you performed well or not, and you will drill yourself to satisfy you! You are preparing so much to satisfy you.

How many of you cognize this? After every meeting, you drill and scan yourself to find out if you performed well or not. You do not understand that if you scan after the happening, it is not just censoring, it is a postmortem report. No post-mortem report can be satisfying, because it is done on a dead person!

Listen! Authenticity means stretching yourself to fulfill your expectations about you, and others' expectations about you. The moment you hear this word, your mind immediately says, 'No, no, no, no, no! I can never fulfill others' expectations. Forget about it, because this guy wants me as this, that guy wants me as that, and this guy wants me as this, and

that guy wants me as that!' When you decide that you can never fulfill others' expectations in your life, you literally destroy you! I am not saying that you will be able to fulfill everyone's expectations about you. You may not be able to fulfill it until the end, but when you already decide that you will not be able to fulfill it, you will be dead!

Listen, I am not saying that you can fulfill everyone's expectation about you. But when you decide that you can't fulfill others' expectations about you, you are dead! You decide to be dead. You stop allowing the life happening in you. Life happens to you, life brings you excitement only when you go on stretching yourself to fulfill others' expectations. Taking responsibility to fulfill others' expectations, even if they are not fulfilling your expectations, is love.

Taking responsibility to fulfill others expectations even if they are not fulfilling, or not ready to fulfill, your expectations, is love! Take the responsibility for love; that is where the relationship starts. Do not say to anybody, 'I love you,' unless you are ready to take the responsibility to fulfill their expectations about you, without bothering about whether they are ready to fulfill your expectations or not. When they are fulfilling your expectations, and you are also fulfilling their expectations authentically, it is called a business partnership. It is a partnership in the business called life. Don't call it as love.

Taking responsibility to fulfill others expectations even if they are not fulfilling, or not ready to fulfill, your expectations, is love.

Sometime, you not only have partners in business; you also have even in life. Maybe you can use the word 'life-business partner'! Life happens to you, life brings you excitement, only when you go on fulfilling others' expectations!

What is love? I will define love. Listen! Only when you take responsibility to fulfill others' expectations about you, without bothering about whether others fulfill your expectations or not, it is love.

Utter the words 'I love you' towards anybody only when you are ready to take the responsibility to fulfill their expectations about you, without expecting them to fulfill your expectations from them. Otherwise don't tell them, 'I love you'. Don't abuse the words, 'I love you'. It will lose its power if you use it very loosely.

If you fulfill others' expectations and others fulfill your expectations, it is more like a business. Love means that you take the responsibility to fulfill the other's expectations about you, without even bothering about others fulfilling your expectations. That is where love starts. Love is the basic component for relationships.

Listen, love is beyond business. Love makes life happen in you. When you decide to fulfill others' expectations without bothering about whether others will fulfill your expectations, your muscle-memory is filled with so much of life.

When, I declare that I love my sangha, I take the responsibility to fulfill your expectations about me, without bothering whether you will fulfill my expectation. A glimpse of love makes you naturally expand yourself for more and more love.

I have a question from 'Enriching Temple'. 'What if someone's expectation from you is limiting them, and not expanding them?'

Listen, even if others' expectation about you is limiting them, stretch yourself to fulfill it. Then make them understand that they need to expand; not before that. Only then will they understand their inauthenticity. Others are ready to listen about their inauthenticity from you, only when you prove that you are authentic. A glimpse of love makes you expand more and more in love.

When you take responsibility for one person and decide, 'I will fulfill your expectation about me, even if you don't fulfill my expectation about you*,'* you decide to bring love into your heart; you decide to bring relationship into your life. I tell you, even one love, one relationship will bring so much of joy, love, life and laughter in you, you will see that you want to play this game again and again and again; you will want to expand this with every possible relationship. Loving everyone, educating everyone, taking responsibility for everyone, with the understanding, 'I am not doing this for any reason; I am just enjoying feeling expanded, so I continue to do so, and I will be continuously doing so!'

Whether others fulfill your expectations or not, when you fulfill their expectations, it brings so

Life happens to you, life brings you excitement, only when you go on fulfilling others' expectations.

much of fulfillment in you! It brings so much of fulfillment in you! I tell you, you will simply decide this as a strategy planning of your life – authenticity, love and expansion! The best strategy plan for your life is the decision to love and build relationships.

I have a question here: 'What if I realize that others' expectations are limiting me? Should I still fulfill them?'

Listen! First fulfill them, and then make them understand that you are limited by their expectations. Go on expanding to fulfill others' expectation. I tell you, the energy which you use to defend yourself from others, and the energy you need to stretch yourself to others' expectations, both are one and the same. In fact, you need less energy to stretch yourself to fulfill others expectations than to constantly defend yourself from others. Your energy will be used only for two purposes; either for constantly defending yourself from others, or stretching yourself to fulfill others' expectations about you.

Inauthenticity constantly keeps the imagination and fantasies of shrinking, coziness and smallness alive in you. You always imagine a vacation, living in a small hut on the beach, in one corner of the world where nobody else is there, just eating and sleeping! You imagine that that's the way you will be in peace and in completion. What an inauthentic imagination, that your mind goes on feeding you!

First of all, how will you reach that corner of the world where no human beings are there? Second, who will make the hut for you, and who is going to give you food? Keeping impossible imaginations as your fantasies, and continuing to prolong incompletions and inauthenticity in your life, is delusion. How many of you are running and working with this kind of impossible vacations as your imagination? Raise your

hands. How many of you have these impossible vacations as your imagination? Be very clear, you are running towards delusion. Relax.

Listen! Whenever the planet Rāhu is negative towards you, the first thing he gives you is inauthentic imaginations and visualizations. The planet Kētu reminds you about the inauthenticity of your visualizations and imaginations. Listen, whenever you are asked to face your inauthenticity, Kētu is helping you. Whenever your inauthentic imaginations are becoming strong in you, Rāhu is overpowering you.

I have another question - 'Can Swamiji give an example for how others' expectations limit us, but we still continue to fulfill that?'

For example, you expect me to be a CEO. You constantly expect me to act as a CEO for you, which is limiting me from my authenticity. But I continue to fulfill your expectation about me as a CEO, guiding you even in mundane things. The authenticity of my level is just to be guiding you with spiritual principles and giving you these tattvas, and making you live and expand and achieve success. But you go on expecting me to be your CEO, supplying day-to-day ideas, supporting you, guiding you, inspiring you, listening to you, spending time with you. All this is limiting me, but I still continue to fulfill your expectation about

You need less energy to stretch yourself to fulfill others expectations than to constantly defend yourself from others.

Love makes life happen to you

me.

Even if it is limiting you, fulfill others' expectations, and then make them understand that it is limiting you, but you are going to continue to fulfill it.

The essence of today's satsang is this. integrity, authenticity and responsibility can enrich your relationship and love. With integrity, authenticity and responsibility, a Ganga of love opens in you and in your relationships!

I bless you all to achieve success in the completion process. I bless you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'!

Listen! You are the source of everything and you are responsible for everything. Only when you understand the truth that 'you' are responsible for everything , the possibility for expansion starts!

Today I will expand on responsibility and enriching relationships.

Please listen! Responsibility means living and cognizing - thinking, talking, expressing and responding to life from the truth that you are the source of and therefore you are responsible for all happenings around you. I tell you, you are the source of everything and you are responsible for everything. Only when you understand the truth that you are responsible for everything, the possibility for expansion starts!

Please listen. You feeling that you are responsible is not just a methodology or a technique to increase your productivity in the corporate circle, or make you a responsible citizen for the sake of the country. No! I am not funded by any state or corporate company. I am supported by the Cosmos. I only teach the laws of Cosmos. I am not supported by corporate companies to spread ideas and teachings which make better corporate staff employees and making their training easy. I am not

against you being a responsible employee, but I am not teaching responsibility just to make you a responsible employee, or a responsible citizen. I am teaching responsibility to make you an enlightened being!

Understand the context from which the teachings are shared. If climbing a hill is from the context of 'work' that you have to do, it tires you. If it is a hobby, time-pass, or a picnic, it rejuvenates you. The same action with the right context gives a result and with the wrong context gives an entirely different result.

I tell you, you are the source of everything. And you are responsible for everything. Whatever is happening, you are responsible! Only when you understand that you are responsible does the possibility for expansion even start.

Listen! This idea of responsibility is taught by many organizations as a method to make you more productive, more useful in the company or organization. Sometimes, this tattva of responsibility is used to make you a better citizen of the country, for various reasons. But here I am telling you, I am teaching you responsibility not to make you a better employee or better citizen alone. Of course, there is no doubt that I also want you to be a better employee and a better citizen.

You need less energy to stretch yourself to fulfill others expectations than to constantly defend yourself from others.Only when you understand that you are responsible does the possibility for expansion even start.

But the first priority, the main reason why I am teaching you these principles is that through these principles, I really want you to achieve jeevan mukti, the space of enlightenment! I want you to understand these principles and experience the possibility of ultimate expansion!

Listen. Feeling responsible is life. You feeling that you are not responsible is death! For anything that you feel responsible, your life expands in that zone. If you feel responsible for your family, your relationship with you family expands. If you feel responsible for your company, the productivity of your company expands. If you feel responsible for your city, the life standard in your city increases and expands. If you feel responsible for the universe, you become enlightened!

When you don't feel responsible, you continuously shrink in your life. In every zone that you feel responsible for, you expand in your life. I decided to take the responsibility of human beings achieving enlightenment. I tell you, I still do not know how many people I enlightened, but I have become more enlightened! The expansion that happened to my inner space is unimaginable. I tell you, in every field and every zone, when you take responsibility for it, you go on expanding. In every zone that you take responsibility for, you expand, expand and expand!

I took the responsibility of reaching out to Hindi speaking devotees. I tell you, I feel that I have expanded and am so happy to speak, like Buddha and Mahavira*,* the language of common men. That was one of the biggest responsibilities that Buddha and Mahavira took. I am so happy that I took the responsibility of reaching out to the Hindi speaking devotees; because only now do I feel that I have expanded.

Look in! Look into your life. When you start taking responsibility, you can decide the way your heart beats; you can decide the way your lungs function; you can even control the automated organs of your body and you can decide the functioning of nonmechanical parts of your brain. Each one of us have mechanical parts and non mechanical parts of the brain. Mechanical parts of the brain are responsible for the functioning of your body - like the heart, lungs, liver, kidney, intestine, the functioning of your nervous system, experiencing touch, taste, seeing etc. The non-mechanical parts of your brain are responsible for the extraordinary powers - like telepathy, teleporting, *vāk-siddhi (*extraordinary power wherein any blessing given becomes true, becomes a reality.)

Please listen. Extraordinary powers are not mythological stories or just some blind faith. I have already done enough scientific research to demonstrate the genuineness of the possibility of teleportation, telepathy and materialization.

I commit with you all that I will continue to do more and more scientific researches, demonstrations and recordings to reach out to the world that it is possible. If your heart can function, you have the capacity and capability to feel the heart beat of others. Just because we have not used the nonmechanical parts of the brain, it does not mean we do not have those powers. All of us do have them!

Feeling responsible is life. You feeling that you are not responsible is death.

When you take responsibility for how you think and feel, instead of leaving the responsibility to the society, media and others, if you take the responsibility, you can make your non-mechanical parts of the brain function. Listen! Listen! When you don't take responsibility, others take it on their own - society, politicians, media, and all other power-hungry people who are interested in controlling you; they take the responsibility of your body, mind and brain if you don't take the responsibility.

Listen, when you take responsibility for all the happenings inside and outside you, a new energy and a new possibility opens up in you. The first step to realize the divine in you is to take responsibility. Everybody asks me, 'Swamiji, how can we be responsible for things for which we are not the reason?' Being a reason or a cause is different; being responsible is different. Sometimes you may not directly be the cause or reason but when you understand that you are responsible for it, you will be able to solve it.

• A person who feels that he is not responsible even for his actions lives at the animal level.
• A person who feels that he is responsible for his actions lives at the human level.
• A person who feels that he is responsible even for others' actions and others' lives is at the level of leader, ishvaratva!

Take responsibility! When you feel responsible, even your breathing shifts to a higher frequency! Your thinking rises to leadership consciousness!

Being in borderline-health is not really health. Unfortunately, if you are not admitted in the hospital, you think that you are healthy. No! When you take responsibility, only then you will experience real health. The way you think, the way you breathe, the way you feel, the way you experience, everything becomes different. When you take responsibility, the way you experience life becomes different. Even the non-mechanical parts of the brain which are responsible for higher experiences, like teleporting and telepathy - they all get awakened.

I tell you, these extraordinary powers are not actually extraordinary. They are extraordinary as long as humanity do not know how to awaken those powers inside them. I tell you, when you feel responsible, integrated and authentic; these powers are directly available to you in your inner space. They are straight available to you in your inner space. Whatever you feel inside you and outside you, whatever you are handling in your life, decide to take responsibility for it. You will experience new health.

I tell you, feeling responsible can awaken a new cognition in you, a cognitive shift in you. It can heal anything from an ordinary migraine. It can solve your problems of not feeling inspired or excited to work in your office and to changing the world as you want.

When you feel responsible, integrated and authentic; extraordinary powers are directly available to you in your inner space.

Listen! I am not giving you false promises. I am responsible for what I utter. When you feel responsible, the transformation you experience and the right space you hold naturally makes all the eight great powers - the ashttamahasiddhis express inside you and outside you. ishvaratva is achieved just by feeling responsible.

Unfortunately human beings run behind powers, but never take the responsibility. If you decide to take the responsibility, powers are showered on you. Powers are showered on you!

Please listen. When you take responsibility, the way you think and the way you respond becomes totally different. It is no more the same. Understand that when you expand and feel responsibility, power and a certain grace happens to your being. You enrich yourself and the people around you. Enriching yourself and the people around you constantly is responsibility. Responsibility takes away the pseudo concepts of tiredness, boredom, vacation - the feeling of 'escaping'. I tell you, some of the major diseases with which humanity is suffering are tiredness, boredom, the feeling of 'escaping', the concept of vacation, retirement, etc. All these will disappear from your life. You will see that you will be aligned to life happening!

You need to know this one truth. Constantly cognize that you are responsible for everything - including what you think as accidents. Listen! When you cognize that you are responsible for everything, the way you perceive and experience the world becomes different. When you are able to perceive the world differently, you will be able to change even the facts of the world. Only when you perceive the truth of the world in a different way, can you change the facts of the world, not before that.

No revolution can change the world. Only evolution can change the world. No revolution can change the world, only evolution can change the world! ; I tell you, when you evolve, even if you just sit under a forest banyan tree with responsibility, a city will happen around you by those who want to learn that truth from you; nothing else is required. I telling you, Oh my sannyasis, just go and sit in any corner of the street, in any corner of the forest, with this responsibility and send these waves of responsibility. Feeling responsible to the world. You will see that a huge number of human beings who want to be enriched by you automatically gather around you. Constantly cognize that you are responsible for everything!

It is very unfortunate that human beings are taught from the beginning to put the responsibility on others. Everybody thinks that 'somebody else' will do the job, and finally nobody does it! When somebody realizes that by putting the responsibility on someone else, nobody is doing the job, and becomes responsible, everybody does it! Please listen! When everybody thinks somebody will do, nobody does it. When somebody realizes nobody is doing and takes responsibility, everybody does it!

I just sat, taking responsibility for the Vedic tradition and for making all these truths available to the world. Now, I can see that through the power of my cognition, hundreds of people are taking

When everybody thinks somebody will do, nobody does it. When somebody realizes nobody is doing and takes responsibility, everybody does it.

this responsibility on their shoulders. It is literally what the upanishads say – 'aamaayanthu brahmacharinah swaha' - may various brahmacharis come – this is literally happening!

And I commit with you all that I will create at least ten thousand sannyasis who take the responsibility of the world, teaching the world the science of enlightenment. I give my clarion call to the youth of Bharat, 'Oh youth of Bharat, we are all responsible for Bharat'. It is only by spiritual strength that we will rebuild the country. Only by building human beings will we build the nation!

So I give my call to all the youth of this country.

Wake up! Do not waste your life, just imagining an IT job, a wife, two kids, and a small family. Do not be in that unfortunate small cognition. Wake up! We are responsible for the whole world, for the entire humanity. I give you the clarion call. Stand up and take sannyas. This is the life through which you can constantly enrich others and take responsibility for others' irresponsibility. Take responsibility to teach responsibility to the world. Take responsibility to teach integrity and authenticity to the world.

Bharat has enough of politicians, cine artists, entertainers and lawyers. Now, it needs more sadhus, who will take responsibility to teach responsibility to the world. We need spiritual teachers! I sincerely request and call the youth of Bharat. We have enough of IT engineers, clerks, politicians and entertainers. We have enough in every field. We now really need enlightened sadhus to teach this science of responsibility to the world. That is the immediate necessity for the world! We need more spiritual teachers and spiritually enlightened beings, who will teach the world about integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching our self and others.

That is why I started this free one-year–program, 'ananda yogam,' for the youth to come and try it, taste it, and test the real enlightened life, a life of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching our self and others. When you taste these four principles, when you get ready to live these four principles, only then do you understand the excitement of the life of a sadhu, the life of a jeevan mukta.

I want every taluk in Bharat to have a proper monastery, where these four truths are continuously practiced and enriched!

I welcome the youth of Bharat. March towards Bengaluru. Come to Bidadi to experience a life of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching the world!

When I wandered the length and breadth of Bharat to learn this science of enlightenment, I collected different parts of this science from different parts of the country. It is like how Sati's body was made to pieces and dropped in different places, and shakti peetas were established. In the same way, the science of enlightenment is also made to different pieces and dropped all over the country, in various monasteries and kept as a secret science. Fortunately, I was able to walk and collect all the parts of Sati's body, assemble it and create Parvathi. Now, Parvathi is here, all in one place, for all of you to come and experience the science of enlightenment!

Only when you get ready to live these four principles do you understand the excitement of the life of a sadhu, the life of a jeevan mukta!

Just like how Sati's body was made to pieces and dropped all over the country and shakthi peetas were established, the science of enlightenment was also made to pieces, dropped in different monasteries and kept a secret. Fortunately, by divine grace, I took the responsibility of travelling all over the country, studying in different monasteries and various traditions, collecting all the parts and secrets, assembling it and finally giving life to it. Now, it is available as a 'new birth' of Sati - and that is Parvathi!

When I travelled the length and breadth of Bharat to take responsibility for this science, I had to suffer so much for my basic needs - like food, shelter, and learning. That is why I have now made the whole process easy for all of you. The whole science and the whole knowledge is now freely available for you to taste, with your food, shelter and clothes taken care of, for one year. Try to taste it and live a life of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching for a year. Then, you will understand the excitement of sannyas, the excitement of life!

I have created this place, to experience all the secrets of the science of enlightenment - the space of positivity, possibility, responsibility and leadership consciousness, and the space of enlightenment!

• With integrity, you experience the space of positivity.
• With authenticity, you experience the space of possibility.
• With responsibility, you experience the space of leadership consciousness.
• With enriching, you experience the space of enlightenment!

Part 7: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

Oh youth of the world, I give you the clarion call. Oh youth of the world, I give you the clarion call. Arise, awake and stop not until the goal is reached. uththistatha jagrutha prapyavaraan nibodathaha.

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

With responsibility, you experience the space of leadership consciousness.

When you are complete with you, the world will be complete with you. When you are incomplete with you, the world will be incomplete with you. Completion with you is satori. Completion with the world is samadhi!

I welcome you all with my love and respects. Today, I'll expand on how the principles of life and enriching can be used, to expand your relationship with yourself and with others.

Listen! These four principles are not my teachings, these four are THE teachings. If human beings need to learn anything on the planet earth, these four principles are the first, middle and last of it. Listen! These four principles are not my teachings, they are THE teachings. These four are the essence of all religions, spiritual groups, philosophies, sects, cultures and the essence of psychology. These four principles are THE teachings: integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching!

Today, I'll expand on how the fourth principle, 'enriching' can empower you in the zone of relationships. If you are feeling powerless in your relationships, be very clear that you will be powerless with the relationship with you. The Relationship with you and the relationship

with others - both happen from the same space. If you feel powerless in the relationship with others, you will have the same powerlessness in the relationship with you. If you are feeling powerful and complete in the relationship with you, you will feel same power and completeness in your relationship with others.

They are not just my teachings; these four principles are THE teachings. Any human being has to listen and learn these four principles, from the moment he's born, from the moment he starts living, while living and before death! Today, I'll expand on the fourth principle 'enriching' and how this principle is will heal your relationship with you and your relationship with others and make you feel powerful in your relationship with others and relationship with you. Enriching! How can the principle of enriching be used, to make you powerful in the zone of relationships, in your relationship with you and in your relationship with others?

First, I'll expand on what is your relationship with yourself. Please understand. Just look in. The ideas you carry about 'you' - how many of you suffer a deep distrust over you, that you will not be able to raise yourself to the higher level? How many of you very deeply cognize this inside you? WHY? Please understand. This is because 'you' are not consistently and continuously enriching yourself and raising yourself to the next level! You gave up on you, you gave up on yourself ! The relationship with you, by you, lacks enriching!

I tell you, if you don't continuously teach yourself these four principles, of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, not only will you give up on 'you', you will also give up on others. People who give up on themselves are very dangerous, because then you feel, 'You are anyway going to be doomed, then what is there? I'm anyway going to

be doomed. then what is wrong, if I also do this? What is wrong, if I also do this?' Then, there is no limit for your falling. You will consciously see that you are having a freefall, like the Hindu stock market. Listen! I tell you, the moment you give up on yourself, you give up on others, and you are dangerous to you and to the society!

Lord Sri Krishna says again and again:

uddhared atmana atmanam na atmanam avasadayet Raise yourself by yourself. If you are continuously raising yourself by yourself, you are your friend. If not, you are your enemy!

You need to feel empowered and powerful in the relationship with you and the relationship with others. Tirelessly face your inauthenticity and align yourself to responsibility – this is the only way you can build a relationship with 'you'. Listen! Tirelessly face your inauthenticity. If you are not ready to face, who in the world do you think will face your inauthenticity? That is why everybody turns their face away from you. You continuously cry, 'Everybody turns their face away from me, nobody loves me, nobody relates with me'. arre, there is so much of inauthenticity that even you don't want to look at it. Then why will anybody else look at it?

Only when I was able to be completely comfortable

If you are feeling powerless in your relationships, you will be powerless with the relationship with you.

with me, the world was comfortable with me. I tell you from my experience, when I was completely comfortable with me, even a cobra, a poisonous cobra which was lying next to me was so comfortable with me!

I was staying in South Bharat, in the deep forests of Tamil Nadu, in a place called Karadimalai, near Perukkaranai, where the stone quarrying is done for the dieties. It really happened once. I was so comfortable with myself. I had completely completed with myself and completed with the whole cosmos. Listen! Completion with you is satori, completion with the cosmos is samadhi! So, I was sitting in samadhi with my eyes open.

And in front of me, at not even a two-feet distance, there was a big poisonous cobra, lying and resting. It was almost on my lap for more than two hours! Neither did I have the thought 'This is cobra', nor did cobra have the thought 'This is a man'. When I first had the thought, 'Oh, this is cobra, it is poisonous and can be dangerous', when these thoughts have started slipping, I came down from samadhi. When these thoughts started oozing out of my inner space, I could see that the cobra too had the thought, 'This is a man, he can be dangerous, he can kill me', and it just looked up, looked at me and moved away!

When you are complete with you, the world will be complete with you. When you are incomplete with you, the world will be incomplete with you! Completion with you is satori; completion with the world is samadhi. Completion with you is prathyagatma chaitanya jaagrata. Completion with the cosmos is the feeling experience of brahmanyam bahuputratam. Completion with you is inner awakening, completion with the whole universe is sannyas.

sannyas means, completion with the whole. You are clear with your accounts and there is no incompletion!

When you complete with you, the relationship with you starts. Please listen! Only when the relationship with you starts, can you have a vacation in your life. Until then, you may be able to book your flight tickets, pick the place of vacation, book your hotel, spa, food, girlfriend, everything, but you will never experience a real vacation, because you are carrying you, with whom you don't have a good relationship! How can you carry along someone with whom your relationship is not good, and have any vacation?

Listen! If the relationship with you is not complete, healed, and settled, you can never have a vacation in your life. You may go to various places to have a vacation, but, you can never have a vacation. You can book your golf course, your golf club, you can do everything possible, but you will just be suffering with you. You will just be struggling with yourself. Only when you have a healed relationship with you, only when you can trust you, when you can raise yourself by yourself, only then can you relax in your life!

When Buddha says His last words, 'atma deepo bhava', 'appa deepo bhava', he means raise yourself by yourself, build relationship with yourself by yourself. Don't give up on yourself !

Unfortunately, you start the struggle with you,

When you are complete with you, the world will be complete with you. When you are incomplete with you, the world will be incomplete with you!

with the clear plan of losing. When you start the war with you, you plan it in such a way that you play a losing game, so that you will never again ever try to raise yourself by yourself. You just give up on you. You pick up deep rooted patterns and start struggling with it. First, complete the patterns which have not yet become deep rooted in you, patterns like irritation and agitation. But you start with patterns like lust, deep rooted fears, addictions. Naturally you can declare yourself as failure in a few weeks and just coil yourself into the cozy comfortable zone where you do not need to do anything to raise yourself by yourself. Am I right?

First, start completing with the deep rooted, root patterns of suffering! For this, you will have confidence over you. You will feel responsible for you. Bring deep integrity in your thinking. Start the fight in the areas where you will win. Use all your energy to realize these principles in your life, not to disprove these principles. You can prove anything or disprove anything in your life. You are the judge and you have the power. As far your life is concerned, you are the legislature, you are the executive, you are the judiciary and you are the media. You can either make something work for you or prove that it cannot work for you. You can make or break anything you want. Use all your powers; legislature, executive, judiciary and media, to prove that these principles work for you.

You can have relationship with you only when you can raise yourself by yourself. As I said, you are your own judiciary, you are your own legislature, you are your own media and you are your own executive. Am I right? You decide for you, you execute for you and you criticize you.

Listen! I'll give you an example. When you debate about a decision, you are your legislature. When you decide, you are your judiciary. When you

execute that in your life, you are your executive body. When you criticize yourself, whether it goes happily or becomes a failure, when you constantly criticize yourself, you are your own media!

Don't start fighting with bigger patterns, when you begin the relationship with you. First, start completing the patterns that yet to be rooted in your bio-memory. You will have courage and confidence. First, the relationship with you will start getting built and you will have the space to listen to you. I tell you, if you have the space to listen to you, your thoughts per second (TPS) will drop drastically and you will be in such peace. There are only two possibilities, either you are in peace or in piece-piece! Either you are in peace or in piece-piece. You can bring peace to you, or be in piece-piece! If you have a master like Krishna with you, you can even conquer Duryodhana's sena!

You only have two possibilities. The first is to heal and enrich your relationship with you. Do svapoornatva - self completion, by bringing integrity with you, authenticiy with you, responsibility about you and enrich yourself !

Listen! I ask you to bring these three qualities in you, as a first priority. That does not mean that I'm asking you to do only this. You have to be doing this simultaneously with you and with others. Only then does it happen in you!

You can have relationship with you only when you can raise yourself by yourself.

When you bring completion to you, the relationship with you starts, enriching yourself starts. If you have confidence, you can look at you, you can be with you, you are comfortable with you and you can raise yourself by yourself. Who else can be with you? Who else can look at you? Who else will be comfortable with you? I tell you, in the cosmic constitution - the first amendment is that you should be taught to be comfortable with you! A man should be comfortable with himself. You should be comfortable with you. That is the first amendment in the cosmic constitution. Freedom of speech only comes second. You have the freedom to speak with others only if you have freedom to speak with you! For this, first start completing the patterns that are yet to be rooted in your bio-memory!

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

If you analyze your mind with integrity, you will understand that you are actually afraid of wealth. You hate wealth! That is the truth! Have the right mental set-up for wealth; that will bring wealth. I will always bless you for that!

I welcome you all with my love and respects. Listen! I will expand on how the principle of integrity expands your wealth, and the ability to create and celebrate wealth.

First, let me define sampoorti, integrity. Integrity means you fulfilling the word and thought you give to yourself and to others, and experiencing a state of poornatva - completion with yourself and with life.

Let me define wealth. Wealth means, having the resources in the inner world and the outer world, available for you to fulfill what you feel as your life's purpose.

Listen! Wealth is having the resources at your disposal, in the inner world and the outer world, to achieve what you decide as your life's purpose. Wealth needs to be understood. If you have crores of rupees and do not have health to even stand up, then it is useful. Wealth is having the

resources both in the inner world and in the outer world, to fulfill your life's purpose. Listen! I am not restricting wealth to the zeros added in your bank balance. I am not restricting wealth to the infrastructure available to you. Wealth is having the resources in the inner and the outer world, to fulfill your life's purpose.

How does integrity expand it? Listen! What is integrity*?* Honoring the words you give to yourself and others as life. First look in! Do you really want wealth, consistently in your inner space? If you look in, you will see that you have greed for wealth, but you are not ready to take the responsibility that comes with wealth. To acquire wealth, you need to take up responsibility. To possess wealth, you need to take up certain responsibilities. To celebrate it, to celebrate its existence, you need to take up some responsibility. To spend wealth, you need to take up some responsibility. Look inside! You have so much of hatred towards all those responsibilities. Then, how do you say that you want wealth?

If you analyze your mind and your attitude towards wealth with integrity, you will understand that you are actually afraid of wealth. You hate wealth! That is the truth. Many times, you sit and calculate, 'If I take responsibility and make wealth in a few years, then I will possess it for a few years, then I will spend it in a few years' By the time you complete your calculation, you understand that when you

Wealth means, having the resources in the inner world and the outer world, available for you to fulfill what you feel as your life's purpose.

start spending, you are old and your life is gone! So you think, 'Oh God! My whole life will be gone if I take responsibility for wealth and start accumulating it! So it is better for me to just fantasize about wealth and go on blaming myself that I don't have it, and just retain the greed. Somewhere, I might win a lottery or THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM Swami will bless me for wealth!' No! At the most, I will bless you to have wealth to do some meditation program and have the right mental set-up, that's all! Not more than that. Have the right mental set-up; that will bring wealth. I will always bless you for that.

The fear of responsibility and the greed for wealth always go hand-inhand. If you look in, you have greed for wealth, but you are not ready to take the responsibility that comes with wealth!

We keep our greed, thinking that one day, this egg will hatch. Understand, if the egg is broken from outside, a life is destroyed. A life is killed! The possibility is over! If the egg is broken from inside, then life happens! Life comes out! If you take up the responsibility for your greed, you break the egg from inside and life happens; wealth happens; expansion happens. If you just keep the greed, but have not taken the responsibility, then fear will attack from outside and break the egg. Then the possibility is over!

Are you going to keep your life as a fight between fear and greed, or a victory of responsibility? Responsibility continuously declares Isvaratva, victory, leadership! Look in! Spend a little time with yourself. Do manana - intranalizing. Are all your thoughts about wealth in integrity with your desires? Are they in integrity with your desires and with your responsibility?

Just yesterday, I found a dangerous pattern with one of my sannyasinis.

I told her, 'You be healthy. You have to take class. I am able to rest only because you are taking the class. If not, the load will fall on me. Be healthy.' And with all the humility, gratitude, dedication and sacrifice, she melted down. She said, 'Swamiji, I will work, work, and work and fall at your feet and die! You don't worry! You take rest!' I said, 'Don't suffer with this pattern!'

We have the idea that we will be like Paramahamsa Yogananda, who gave discourses until the end of his life. He was giving a discourse until the end of his life and just dropped his body gracefully and achieved mahasamadhi. Or like many other yogis who think, 'We will work, work and work and leave the body.' Please understand, I am not disrespecting any of those great yogis. All I am trying to tell you and my sannyasini is this - why should you have the wrong visualization? Instead, visualize this! 'I will work, work, and work and become more and more healthy! I will live for at least a hundred-and-fifty or two-hundred years and then leave the body, at my will!' Have the right integrity, because your integrity creates the body.

Work does not need to make you tired. It is a wrong idea taught to you by society. The only two enemies human beings have are boredom and tiredness. When you entertain them, you build wrong patterns. When you are bored of doing some work, you invoke tiredness: Om Tiredness

Work does not need to make you tired. It is a wrong idea taught to you by society.

Swaaha! Ihagachcha! Ihagachcha! (chants to invoke the presence of a diety or a quality) Please come here! Come here! Reside here! Reside here!' You invoke tiredness! You invoke depression! 'Oh Depression Devathaya! Ihagachcha! Ihagachcha! Ihatishtta ihatishtta, I will do pooja for you. Please come here and settle down!'

Scrutinize your inner space with integrity. Intranalize your inner space. You will see that whenever you don't want to take responsibility, you invoke boredom, tiredness and fear. Sometime, even greed is used as a substitute for enjoyment. Listen! Sometimes, greed is used as a substitute for real wealth. You know that to enjoy the wealth you really need to take responsibility. But now, you don't want to take the responsibility. So, what do you do? You just fantasize that you have wealth like a huge palace in the centre of the city. In Bharat, these crazy fellows always love to live in the downtown; while in the western countries they like to live in the suburbs. You fantasize a huge bungalow in the downtown, with hundreds of cars and workers! Many times, by the time you finish your fantasy, you are tired and fall asleep, which you are very comfortable about!

Greed and fantasy are used as substitutes for alcohol and drugs. Listen, when you have the pattern of addiction for alcohol and drugs, you go for it. When you are afraid that they will spoil your health, you use fantasy and greed as a substitute for alcohol. Fantasy and greed are powerful substitutes for alcohol!

Intranalize yourself with integrity. You will understand that most of the time - a hundred percent of the time - your relationship with wealth is not taking responsibility to make it a reality! It is more like, 'Let me just have a fantasy about wealth and live with it!' You don't want to take the responsibility of making it a reality in your life. You just want

to keep wealth as a fantasy in your life.

I tell you, wealth as reality is Lakshmi, it is fulfilling. Wealth in reality, was never renounced in the Vedic tradition. In the viraja homa mantra, the sannyas mantra, you declare before taking sannyas:

Brahmanyam Bahuputhrathaam |'

If the Vedic tradition was against wealth, why will you ask for wealth before taking sannyas? It is a Viraja homa mantra, a sannyasa mantra.

Listen! Vedic tradition was never against wealth. Vedic tradition is against the fantasy about wealth. It is against you not taking the responsibility for wealth. Have the right relationship with wealth. It should be like a stable marriage relationship. Your relationship with wealth should be like a stable, responsible relationship, and not just fantasy or flirting. If you want wealth in your life, you should be able to take the responsibility for the wealth. You should be able to take the responsibility to make it, live it and celebrate it.

One of the important lessons you need to learn is that only people with integrity create and celebrate wealth. You always think that only people without integrity get wealth. You think, 'I am with integrity; that is why I don't get wealth.' No! You are wrong!

Whenever you don't want to take responsibility, you invoke boredom, tiredness and fear.

You are wrong! Only people with integrity get and celebrate wealth. For people without integrity, even if they have it, it will be in the Swiss bank! They only know the zeros, shoonyas.

I tell you, when you make money without integrity, you will never be able to live with it. When integrity brings you wealth, you live and celebrate it. I tell you, only wealth earned with integrity can be lived and celebrated!

Wealth created with integrity brings fulfilment to you and your life's purpose. I can see this in my own organization. When you hand over some property or wealth to the swamis and swaminis who have taken responsibility, they enrich the world using that wealth properly. But if you hand over property to people who have not taken responsibility, they destroy it in a few months. They are again standing as beggars with a begging bowl, in a few months.

With integrity, you will first build the right relationship with wealth. You will not have fear. Sometimes, if you intranalyze, you will find that if some wealthy person behaves egoistically or arrogantly, you think, 'If I have wealth, I will also become like that! Let me not have wealth,' and you start hating wealth. You start living without wealth because you are afraid that you may become egoistic or arrogant, if the wealth comes to you. I tell you, if somebody wants to be arrogant, he will be arrogant even if he doesn't have wealth. Poverty, like wealth, is equally capable of making you arrogant.

Listen, I have seen this in my experience. The so-called poor people are the most arrogant people. At least the wealthy people become polite, because they have a lot of experience in the society and they get beaten by the society. They become polite, polished, humble, and processed.

But these so-called poor fellows are so arrogant, that they demand hundred times more than what they can take responsibility for or a hundred times more than their worth, and then, they say, 'Because I am poor, you are not ready to give me this.' So, I tell you, if somebody decides to become arrogant, wealth is only a reason. Even without wealth, that person can be arrogant. But if you start thinking in your heart, 'These fellows have become arrogant because of wealth; if I become wealthy, I may also become arrogant!,' then your hatred towards arrogance, turns towards wealth.

Only if you intranalize this, will you understand. When you are thinking about wealth the whole day, see what relationship you are building with wealth. Analyze, again and again and again. What are the words you utter towards wealth? I have seen, many times, that you start enjoying poverty because of the self-sympathy it brings towards you.

Somehow from the very young age, you started believing that poverty means you are right. If you are in poverty, then you have not done anything wrong. You started believing that people with wealth do all the fraudulence, wrong things, tell lies, cheat others and accumulate wealth which is a completely wrong pattern. The have-nots have a deep hatred towards the haves. And the have-nots constantly spread rumors and stories about the haves.

Wealth created with integrity brings fulfilment to you and your life's purpose.

Go to any middle-class Hindu town. If there is a rich man in that town, there will be rumors floating about him that he printed currency! I tell you, go to any town of Bharat, any town, whether it is Tamil Nadu, Andhra, U.P., Maharashtra, Himachal Pradesh, or any town! In any town, there will be two or three rich people. There will be rumors floating around the richest man of the town, especially if he is selfmade in one generation, that he printed currency! In Tamil Nadu, there is a standard statement - All is Sivakasi rupee, Sivakasi currency is playing!

The have-nots have a deep hatred towards the haves and they spread rumours about them. Even if the richest man is your close friend and you know that he has not done anything illegal, you just want to enjoy the rumor to justify to yourself as to why you don't have wealth and why he has it. You do not want to accept the fact that he took the responsibility for life and that you did not take responsibility for life. Because I walked the length and breadth of Bharat, I know the Hindu psyche from its deep roots. I tell you, in Hindu psyche, we carry a deep hatred for those who have. That is why media is always successful when it attacks the people who have, when they go behind the blood of the people who have.

They will neither take the responsibility to have, nor allow the people who have taken the responsibility, to have peacefully. This is what I call as poverty consciousness or the beggar mentality. Bharat needs to wake up and come out of this mentality! All of Bharat needs the practice of integrity!

Listen! We need integrity as a lesson in our schools. I will expand on this subject continuously in further satsangs.

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

The lower dimensions of you are nothing but rejected parts of your higher dimensions. When your higher dimension is not materialized, when it is not realized, your lower dimension is empowered!

I will expand on the second principle, authenticity, and how authenticity expands your wealth and the life, wealth and possibilities.

Listen, I will define authenticity. Authenticity is the state where you are established in the peak of your possibility and capability, and you respond to life from who you perceive yourself to be for yourself, who you project yourself to be for others and what others expect you to be for them. Bring yourself to the peak of what you perceive as yourself and project yourself as.

If you are projecting yourself to the world as an IAS officer or an IPS officer or the head of a state, village, town or country, bring yourself to the peak of how you project yourself to the world. That is when you become authentic to your possibility and to your capability.

When you bring yourself to the peak of you, there is no wastage of inner powers. I tell you, when you waste your love it becomes lust, when you waste your responsibility it becomes jealousy. The lower

dimensions of you are nothing but rejected parts of your higher dimension. When your higher dimension is not materialized, when it is not realized, your lower dimension is empowered!

I have seen this even in my organization. I am telling you this from the experience of handling millions of human minds, that whenever somebody is not able to or not interested in expressing their capabilities and potential possibility, I am afraid of them! Listen! Not only do they waste their life, but they also end up in building so much negativity around themselves. They become a big disturbance for flow of life! They become such a big negative element in the flow of life happening.

Bringing yourself to the peak possibility. Listen, it happens! It can happen only when you practice this truth every moment. When you feel tired of realizing your possibility, remind yourself - 'No, I cannot afford this tiredness in my life, this is inauthentic'. Stand up every moment, bringing yourself to the highest peak of how you project yourself to the world. If you are showing yourself as a father to your son, then you have to be performing in the peak possibility of a father. If you are projecting yourself as a husband or a wife to somebody, you have to be in the peak possibility of a best husband or a best wife. In everything you project to others; listen, everything you project to others is the commitment you give to others. If I

When your higher dimension is not materialized, when it is not realized, your lower dimension is empowered.

project myself as a Guru, I am committing with all my disciples as a Guru. So, I become responsible to perform to my peak possibility as a Guru. I have to perform at my peak possibility to my disciples. That is what is authenticity. If you commit yourself as a disciple, you perform at the peak possibility of a disciple. That is what is authenticity.

Please understand, even if you are inauthentic, I cannot justify my inauthenticity with it. If I am inauthentic, you cannot justify your inauthenticity with it. If you are inauthentic, you are inauthentic. I can't use that as a reason for me to be inauthentic. If I am inauthentic I am inauthentic. You can't use that as a reason for you to be inauthentic. Every moment, bring yourself to the peak possibility of how you project yourself to others.

Raise yourself continuously to your peak possibility! I tell you, Raise yourself continuously to your peak possibility, you will create a new body. I am telling you from my own experience. I am continuously applying it for the last few days. If I am in the peak of possibility with myself, I naturally can't afford tiredness. I can't afford for even the non-mechanical parts of my body to get tired. The non-mechanical parts of your body getting tired – this is what IS disease! The parts of your body which can't be controlled by your will are the nonmechanical parts of your body. The parts of your brain that can't be controlled by your will are non-mechanical parts of the brain. The parts of the body organs that you can control by your will are the mechanical parts. For example, the hands which you can control through your will, the legs which you can control through your will. The non-mechanical parts of your body, like the heart, liver, intestine and kidney, are those which you cannot control with your ordinary will.

When the non-mechanical parts of your body become tired and bored, that is disease. If you decide with all your will power, with the powers in your hand, that you can't afford tiredness and boredom to be in the peak of your possibility, that sinks into your non-mechanical parts as well. They get out of their tiredness and boredom. You naturally get out of your disease and lack of life. Listen, I have seen some people who are highly healthy, but life is missing in them. The lack of possibility is missing in them. That is also inauthenticity.

The biggest danger you can have in your life is using others' inauthenticity to make yourself inauthentic. Do not use others' inauthenticity to justify your inauthenticity. Life oozes into our system, into our body as we respond to it, as we approach it, as we listen to it, as we expect it and as we project it. Bring yourself to your highest possibility just because YOU need to be in the highest possibility, not for any other reason. Constantly ask yourself, 'Why should I be in the highest possibility when others are not responding to me in that way?'

Listen! Just because others drink poison regularly, do you want to drink it? Just because thousands of human beings are behaving foolishly, do you want to be foolish? Just because millions of human beings are not using the extraordinary powers that are made available to them by the Divine, you also are not going to use them?

The biggest danger you can have in your life is using others' inauthenticity to make yourself inauthentic.

Listen! When you landed on planet Earth, so much energy and power is deposited in your bank balance, and the check book is available in your hand. You just need to sign it! The signature is Authenticity. Reclaim it!

But you say, 'No, No! Everyone is not taking money from their accounts. Everyone is not taking it out of their accounts and using their powers. How can I use it? Why should I be the only one to use it?'

I tell you, others not using it should not be the reason for you to not use it! That should not be the reason for you to not use it. Understand, the whole world drinking poison does not justify you drinking poison. How you perceive yourself, how you project yourself and bring yourself to the peak - that is where you become authentic to your capability.

I am experiencing it in my life for the last few days. I could see that this authenticity alone is healing my body.

Every moment, I am constantly telling my body very clearly, 'You have to be at the peak of what you are projecting to the world.' So, naturally, I am projecting God as the peak to the world! So, I just have to be like God! I said, 'The body we are carrying can't afford anything else.' So, I could see so much energy happening inside the body, altering itself, repairing itself, rebuilding itself and rejuvenating itself !

Just because the world drinks poison, you don't need to drink poison! That's exactly what I told my body. Normally, when a body sees tiredness or boredom or the idea of disease, it responds to it by lying down, taking rest, and not performing any activities. I said, 'No! I can't afford to! You have to be in the peak of what you project yourself to the world! That is authenticity! You can't afford to be inauthentic.' And I could see that my body immediately jumped out of bed, took bath, did its pooja,

performed everything, and came back here for the satsang. I could see the non-mechanical parts of the body also listening and healing itself, recovering itself with this one truth of authenticity.

I tell you all, if you are projecting yourself as a teacher, you have to be in the peak possibility of a teacher. If you are projecting yourself as an entertainer, you have to be at the peak of your profession. If you are whatever you are projecting yourself to others, you have to be in the peak possibility of that.

I tell you, your health, your wealth, your relationships, your success, your excellence everything is built on this one truth, Authenticity! Build authenticity as the pattern in your inner space. I tell you, everything is possible for your life. You will experience the space of possibility.

One of the biggest gifts I am giving to my Gurukul kids is living in the space of possibility. I want all my Gurukul kids to understand, whether you have taken krama brahmacharya or not, you are my child. If your parents are also like my child, you are given karma brahmacharya. If not, you study in Gurukul, but you are still my child. Don't be disturbed.

All human beings should learn the science of living and practice the science of living in peak possibility. Everything that is brought inside your mind, in front of your mind, should be responded

Build authenticity as the pattern in your inner space. You will experience the space of possibility, that 'everything is possible'.

to with the idea 'Possible'! Possible! Possible! That should be the word ringing in your heart space. Possible! Possible! Possible!

I told myself, 'Health is simply possible!' Whatever may be the reason, when you bring yourself to your peak possibility, even if it is by telling yourself, health becomes possible! Only when you start telling yourself do you realize that you have some vested interest even in your sickness. Some corner of you is enjoying it.

Bring yourself to the highest authenticity. Bring yourself to the peak of your performance in every action.

What is Wealth? Wealth is nothing but your peak, realizing yourself in your peak, in the actions and activities you take up, for generating wealth. You might be taking up a job, a business, or some profession for generating wealth for your life. Sometimes even playing brings wealth to your life.

• G For some people, talking brings wealth to their life.
• G For some people, laughing brings wealth to their life.
• G For some people, dancing brings wealth to their life.
• G For some people, painting brings wealth to their life.
• G For some people, talking takes away wealth from their life.
• G For some people, jumping takes away wealth from their life.
• G For some people, jumping brings wealth to their life, talking brings wealth to their life.

So, whatever you have taken up in your life to acquire wealth, perform that in its peak. Whatever actions you have taken up in your life to bring wealth in your life, sit and think through. Is it business? Is it a job? Is it your profession? What are the actions you have taken to bring wealth to your life? Perform at the peak of those actions. Perform at the peak in those actions of your life. You will see, you will see that wealth happens in your life. Wealth simply happens in your life!

Authenticity has to be practiced in every dimension of your life, at every level of your thinking, and at every level of your cognizance. I could see, that after I drilled myself with authenticity, my body did not even cognize its tiredness, boredom or disease! It was just throwing it away before even cognizing it. That is why I am sitting in front of you guys now. I am pushing my body to the extreme performance. Earlier, my working hours were around eighteen hours and now I am pushing it to twenty-twenty one hours! It was a little bit of a struggle to settle down into the next level only for the first few days only. Understand, the struggle is not wrong. Where you are at the end of the struggle determines whether the struggle was right or wrong. At the end of the struggle, if you are going to be in a higher space than where you were, then the struggle is right. At the end of the struggle, if you are going to be in a lower space than where you were, then the struggle is wrong.

Wealth is nothing but your peak, realizing yourself in your peak, in the actions and activities you take up, for generating wealth.

One disciple asked me, 'If I can't even argue with you, why should I be your disciple?' I said, 'Arguing with me is not wrong. At the end of the argument are you going to accept my answers? Then the argument with you is worthy of my time. You can be my disciple. If you are not going to accept the answers I give at the end of the argument, then me arguing with you is a waste of time, and you being my disciple is useless!'

When I decided that my body is going to be in its peak, when I decided that I am going to be keeping my body in peak possibility, I could see that my body very simply stopped even cognizing the old signals from it! What are the old signals of the body? Disease, tiredness, 'let's lie down', 'let's rest', 'let's postpone'; these are all the old signals. My body has stopped cognizing it!

So, I tell you, bring yourself to the peak, whether it is related to your body, profession or relationships.

• G When you bring yourself to your peak possibility relating to body, it becomes health.
• G When you bring yourself to your peak possibility relating to your profession, it becomes success.
• G When you bring yourself to your peak possibility relating to others, it becomes happy relationships.
• G When you bring yourself to your peak possibility relating to your whole life, it becomes enlightenment!

So, it is time I give you the essence of today's satsang. The essence of today's satsang is this. Continuously bring yourself to your peak

possibility without allowing tiredness or boredom. Don't bother about the number of failures. Look to the number of successes you had in your life!

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

When you bring yourself to your peak possibility relating to your whole life, it becomes enlightenment!

'Intranalyzing' - analyzing for the purpose of internalizing. Usually, whenever you analyze, you analyze with the purpose of rejecting it. But here, I am asking you to analyze it for the purpose of internalizing it. Build the logic which will analyze, for the purpose of internalizing, not for the purpose of demolishing!

I will continue to expand on the principle of authenticity, the second principle and how it expands wealth and the possibilities.

Listen, the first thing you need to know is that the space of possibility is the ultimate wealth. Constantly living in the space of possibility is the ultimate wealth. How is the space of possibility achieved? Listen! When you are in tune with what you are doing and what you want to be doing, when what you feel as if you are in sync with what you show as you to the world, then what others perceive about you supports you.

Listen! When what you feel about you and what you show to the world, the inner image and the outer image, when they both are in sync, then others' image supports you in your ventures. Whatever you do, others' image continues to enrich you.

One important thing you need to know is that if you are feeling powerless,

inertness, or the space of impossibility, then what you feel as you, your mamakara is not yet built properly. It is not yet built properly!

I want to share my own experience. Yesterday some of my sannyasinis and sannyasis were sitting and discussing about a project, an enriching project that we want to do to the world. I could see clearly that people who have not built their mamakara with the cognition of these four principles are continuously struggling with the thought of 'impossible'.

Listen! The idea of impossible is encouraged and enriched, only when you have not built your mamakara. Nothing, nothing matters in the outer world. I tell you, the right mamakara is equivalent to a satellite relaying center. It can relay the idea you carry so powerfully, that the whole world will be influenced by you. The whole world will be inspired by you. The whole world will be impressed by you.

You need to establish the right idea about you. Maybe your idea about you is still not built on ahankara and mamakara properly, with these four principles of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching.

Just the power of integrity and authenticity can make you excel in health, wealth, and relationships. It can bring fulfillment to you in every line. The problem is that human beings always ask for some quick solutions. But I tell you, the quickest solutions are these four principles. Start living them - NOW, this moment and you will see the effects in your life. Life can be transformed when you accept these four principles with your heart, without hypocrisy.

Listen! When others image support your inner image and outer image, that is what I call as the space of possibility. You just know that anything you take up is possible, possible, possible!

The Space of possibilityy, that everything is possible, is the ultimate wealth!

Listen! Bring authenticity into your thinking by 'intranalyzing'. 'Intranalyzing' is my contribution, a new word. It is internalizing and analyzing put together.

Intranalyzing - internalizing with analyzing, analyzing for the purpose of internalizing. Usually, whenever you analyze, you analyze with the purpose of rejecting it. But here, I am asking you to analyze for the purpose of internalizing it. Usually the so-called logic does not do any form of internalizing. What does logic itself mean? Just enter and bulldoze, tama, tama, tama, tama no, no, no, no! It's almost like rowdies bulldozing! Ideological rowdism is logical analysis, and the rowdies are the logic. It just enters and does not bother, it just demolishes and breaks everything!

Listen, the space of 'everything is possible' is the space to live. Your logic gets into your space and bulldozes, it's just 'No' to everything. And there is no logical analysis! There is no respect for anything in front of you! That is what has become the pattern of logic. I tell you, 'intranalysing' means analyzing for the purpose of internalizing.

When the bulldozing, demolishing logic functions, you do not know what happens to your life;

The Space of possibilityy, that everything is possible, is the ultimate wealth!

whether it is outside or inside. That is why I tell you, intranalyzing is very important for life; analyzing for the purpose of internalizing.

I am making it very clear. Build the logic that will analyze for the purpose of internalizing, not for the purpose of demolishing, destroying, bulldozing, and constantly rejecting.

So, the essence of today's satsang is this. Build the logic which will analyze for the purpose of internalizing - 'intranalyzing,' so that your authenticity and integrity can build a new YOU for you!

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

When you take the responsibility, the whole universe supports you, because the universe experiences its fulfillment through the cognitions which feels responsible. When you don't feel responsible, you are a drop in the ocean. When you feel responsible, you are an ocean in a drop!

Today, I will expand about responsibility.

When you feel responsible, you will start looking, looking into the truth. You will even start looking for solution. You will even start seeing the possibility of a solution!

Listen! When you sit with the cognition that 'you are responsible for everything', your inner space will automatically have the intuition to solve the problems you create for yourself. Awaken yourself not to have further problems. I tell you, sitting with the cognition that you are responsible for everything is the first step for unclutching!

Sometime I ask people to sit for hours in the meditation programs. Today, unclutching initiation will start. You may think that you sit for hours, but you don't unclutch. Why? How? Until you come to the space that you are responsible for everything, completion will not happen in

you. Completion with others does not happen. You do not become a leader. ishvaratva is not achieved. Understand, only after ishvaratva is achieved is unclutching possible. When you sit with the cognition that you are responsible for everything, you have the intuition to do the right actions in the future and you complete your past. The beauty is that you will then realize that ishvaratva is your very nature!

Constantly, ishvaratva, being a leader - leadership consciousness is your very inner space. When you feel leadership consciousness, when you feel ishvaratva in your inner space, life becomes a miracle. That is what I call completion with you and the world. Only then can you sit unclutched, in nirvikalpa samadhi.

When you feel that you are responsible for everything, you will start looking into the truth. You will start looking for a solution. You will start seeing the possibility for a solution.

When I decided that I am responsible for not reaching out and enriching North Hindus and the Hindi speaking devotees, I decided to find a solution, and I found the solution!

Only when you take the responsibility, will you find the solution. I tell you, in every situation, take the responsibility. You will have leadership

When you feel responsible for everything, you have the intuition to do the right actions in the future and you complete your past.

consciousness happening through you, ishvaratva.

I tell you, when you take responsibility, leadership consciousness starts oozing out. I can see that I took just this one responsibility of enriching the Hindi speaking devotees. The amount of people getting benefited with these spiritual principles, the life bliss principles, is unimaginable!

Just these four principles - the life bliss truths are enough to make your life bliss. The amount of people getting enriched with these truths is unimaginable! I can very clearly see that every nook and corner of the North Hindu villages are receiving these truths with so much of enthusiasm and excitement.

When you take the responsibility, you are in the space of achieving it, doing it! When you are in the space of responsibility, your verbalization, visualization, inner space, everything supports you. The whole universe supports you, because the universe experiences its fulfillment through the cognitions which feel responsible. When you don't feel responsible, you are a drop in the ocean. When you feel responsible, you are an ocean in the drop!

Listen! Even if you take one step towards responsibility, the cosmos takes a thousand steps, taking responsibility for you. When you take responsibility, the cosmic hologram opens in you.

Please understand the principle of a hologram. When you see the whole, you will see an image. When you go deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper, even the smallest bit will be the same image. When you see the whole sheet, you will see the same image. When you go into it and dissect it, go into it and dissect it, and again go into it and dissect it, you will see the same image until the end. The microcosm in macrocosm,

and macrocosm in microcosm is a hologram! The cosmos is built on the structure of a hologram. You are the microcosmic hologram of the macrocosmic diagram. The microcosmic hologram is awakened, the moment you take responsibility.

Feel responsible. After you feel responsible for everything, the disciple-hood that happens in you is trustworthy disciple-hood. Until you feel that you are responsible for everything, for every decision that you make, even if you feel that you are surrendering, it can't be trusted. You are dangerous. You may be falling at the feet, just to pull the leg and not to worship!

• G When you feel responsible for whatever is happening with your knowledge and not just for your job, wealth and family, you are a man.
• G When you feel responsible for whatever is happening beyond your knowledge, you become God.
• G When you feel responsible even for the avyaktha, the unmanifested, you become God!

Achieving divinity means feeling responsible feeling constantly responsible. Responsibility changes the way you think. It changes the way

When you don't feel responsible, you are a drop in the ocean. When you feel responsible, you are an ocean in the drop.

you perceive. It changes the way you feel. It changes the way you are. Responsibility changes everything, it changes the way you internalize life. Responsibility changes the way you intranalize life. You start internalizing, analyzing with the idea of solving.

You are responsible for everything. The science of making you responsible not only makes your life blissful but it also makes the whole world blissful!

I tell you, the science of responsibility should be taught all over Bharat, village to village. Every village should vibrate with the science of this whole principle. I am sending my sansayis. I am sending my sannyasis to beat the drum of these four principles, village to village and teach in every street corner, temple and ashram!

These principles should be taught from village to village, place to place and street to street in Bharat. People should be living them. Ashrams and temples should be happening.

These four principles should be applied not just in your actions but in your very thinking, in your very feeling, in your very experiencing. In your very experiencing! I can very clearly see that the awakening of 'Bharat' is happening. We should be building thousands of ashrams and temples, where these four principles are taught as the principles of life. Where Ayurveda is shared, food is shared, Hindu cultural practices are kept alive, shared and celebrated! Let's build Mahadev's mandir everywhere. Create goshalas, Ayurveda and siddha medicine producing places. Let's share food and enrich people.

Continuously building temples and ashrams, let us create the space where these four tattvas are lived, practiced, and enriched. Every house should become an ashram living these four principles. Every village should become

a community of satang, living these four principles. Thousands of communities should be established in the US and all over the world, where these four principles are established and practiced. Creating sannyas is just for this one purpose!

We should reach out from village to village and build temples and ashrams. We should establish the ashrams and temples everywhere, practicing these four principles. When you take responsibility, wealth, life, everything follows. We should build schools where these four principles are taught, ashrams where these four principles are lived, Goshalas, and temples.

Just like this Bidadi campus, you should just multiply people, living these principles. It can happen only when whoever has heard this principle, has started living it!

Hindus lost that craze of running towards America. Fortunately, Americans are moving towards Bharat to learn the science of life. From all over the world, people are moving to Bharat to learn the science of life. Bring integrity, authenticity and responsibility as breathing to your life. This will solve all the questions of your life. Because, when you start living with enriching, these four principles are swayam prakasam, selfilluminating and self effulgent.

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Responsibility changes the way you intranalize - internalize to analyze, life.

Slipping away is out of boredom and sleeping away is out of tiredness. Boredom and tiredness can be lifeimprisonment. These two are the enemies of life.

Today, I will continue to expand on the fourth principle of life - enriching and how it expands your wealth.

The first statement I want to make is this - enriching takes away your tiredness and boredom. With enriching, the important principle of not giving upon on you and not giving up on others becomes a lifestyle in you. Listen, not giving up on you and not giving up on others becomes a lifestyle in you when you decide to enrich.

You need to know, when you decide to enrich yourself and others, first, the fatigue and tiredness which you've given yourself and others disappear from your being. This is the important vow for the sannyasi. The danda, the staff that I carry, is not giving up on oneself and others. Authenticity is rudraksha ornament. Not giving up on others and yourself is the danda, the staff you carry. Don't give up on others and yourself. Constantly enriching yourself and inspiring

yourself again and again every day opens up the possibility for transformation.

I tell you, when you decide to enrich others, life just pours and showers itself on you. I have seen it in my life. The moment you decide that your life is for others, there is a big shift in the way you think, the way you act and the way you live, even if you are continuing the same business. The way you work is different, your response is different, and above all, your profits are higher.

Enriching is you taking responsibility with integrity and authenticity, that you are committed to continuously enriching, which is expanding yourself and others in and around you. Enriching takes away your tiredness and boredom.

When you live these four principles in your very cognition, the very cognition where the instruction for expansion or contraction is given expands. Listen! These four principles directly work on your software, your inner software. Your inner software is your mind. These four principles expand the very possibility of the inner software. When you bring these four principles in your life, it is literally like writing new software. I tell you, you create the reality of your choice. You create the reality of your choice. I tell you, when you decide to enrich yourself and others, even in your own business, you will feel that life is fresh. It will not be boring, it will not be tiring. Please listen! When you are bored, whatever you do to cover the boredom, the tiredness makes others tired and bored of you.

Please listen. When you are tired of you and bored with you, anything you try to do to cover your boredom about you, bores others and brings boredom to others!

Listen! Do you see that people in your life are bored of spending time with you? Are people bored with you and nobody wants to spend time with you?. How many of you feel that people are bored with you and nobody wants to spend time with you? People want to move out of your space, immediately or after some time! How many of you cognize people are bored with you? Then you must be bored with you! You must be bored with you.

Because you are bored with you, people will still be bored with you, with whatever you do to cover up your boredom. Many times, people are bored with you. But they don't directly tell you, because you will start screaming at them. So they will start moving away politely using some other reason. If ninety percent of the people do not interact with you as friends and people who love you, then I can tell you that you are bored with you and people are also bored with you. They just don't tell you because you will scream at them. If ninety percent of the people whom you interact with love you, if they are your friends, if they love to spend time around you, then I can say that you are not bored with yourself.

When others don't get bored with you, it is joy. When you don't get bored with you, it is bliss! But if you are bored with you, or if you are with somebody with whom you are bored, your life must be worry!

Anything you try to do to cover your boredom about you, bores others and brings boredom to others!

Only with the principle of enriching can any marriage be successful for more than one week. The boredom starts in one week. If it is an arranged marriage, then the boredom starts in one week. If it is love, you decide to get married after the boredom starts! Please listen. If it is an arranged marriage, it is by the first week that boredom starts. If it is a love marriage, only after you feel bored and not before, that you will decide to get married. Otherwise why will you get married? No, only when you feel bored with the other person, are you afraid he may also be feeling bored with you. You now need a security knot.

As long as you have not experienced boredom with the other person, you will not feel insecure that the other person is also experiencing boredom with you. Only after the boredom starts, which means when he is not opening the purse as much as he used to, and she is not opening the mouth as much as she used to smile, the fear that the other maybe feeling bored settles in you. Only when you feel insecure that the other may be feeling bored of you now, you decide to tie the knot of marriage.

Most of the time, marriage is just a confirmation, a lifelong insurance, a guarantee you give each other that you will love each other. Please understand, I am not against marriage, but I am against the marriage of incompletions. I really want to create a matrimonial website where these basic principles of marriage will be taught to people. They should decide to marry only after they learn the principles. After learning the principles, if you decide when you want to marry, it will bring a stable family. When you don't know the principles, the marriage itself may be out of boredom or feeling insecure. Many times in your love, when you are feeling bored or when you are afraid the other person may start feeling bored, you decide to get married for the sake of security!

Each time, when I ask you to sit in unclutching or in nirvikalpa samadhi, you need to be in completion with yourself and you need to conquer the boredom about you and the tired feeling of you. Only when you conquer the boredom and tiredness, can you sit in nirvikalpa samadhi. Otherwise, the moment you sit and close your eyes, either you are off somewhere or asleep. Either you are off somewhere or asleep. Either you are off somewhere or switched off. Either you slip away or sleep away.

Slipping away is out of boredom and sleeping away is out of tiredness. These two are the enemies of life. Boredom and tiredness can be life-imprisonment. It can just stay inside you and stop you doing anything new in your life. The highest level of boredom happens in people who are constantly working with the mind, without these four principles. That is why there is so much suicide in the field of psychology and psychiatry. I tell all my followers and youth, either become an MBBS doctor or a psychologist. I tell them to chose one between these two. If they are my sannyasis, I tell them to take up psychology, because I want to revive this field. With that field, these four principles can enlighten the whole world. Without these four principles, I tell you, there will be the largest number of suicides in just these two fields. The percentage of suicides will always be the largest in these fields, because this is the field where the people are working constantly with the mind.

Slipping away is out of boredom and sleeping away is out of tiredness. These two are the enemies of life.

Listen! For a person who makes pots, who works with mud, no matter how much he cleans his hands, there will naturally be a little mud settling inside his nails. If somebody is working in the charcoal godown, no matter how many baths he takes, there will be a little charcoal sitting in his hair. In the same way, for people who work with the mind without these four principles as the basis for their cognition, no matter how much they try, they will have tiredness and boredom inside them. This is their own and inherited, which they accumulated from others!

I am really telling you that because of these four principles, I saved myself. Otherwise my devotees would have made me mad long ago! I tell you, I cannot imagine how you work so much to destroy yourself. I have seen some people, they want to disprove me; they only want to prove that what I am teaching is wrong. For that sake they are ready to put themselves into tiredness, boredom, depression, anything, and destroy themselves! Sometimes, I ask people, 'Hey, there is such a simple solution for solving the problem. Why don't you solve it?' They say, 'I am not interested in all these principles.'

Because, of the anger they carry towards everything around them, their first priority is to prove that everybody is wrong. They are not interested in the solution; they are interested in proving everybody wrong. Why do you think psychiatrists continuously kill themselves? Psychiatrists kill themselves because they are continuously working with the mind; they don't know how to remove the tiredness and boredom from themselves, and the tiredness and boredom from others.

I know, lawyers can easily get enlightened, because they know how logic can be used, misused and abused. A successful lawyer knows how to convince the court or confuse the court. Convince the court if you can; if you can't, just confuse the court. You win the game. How to use

Part 8: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

logic to use, misuse and abuse! Understand, when you catch the truth, you will easily understand how to go beyond logic. You can become enlightened. You can become enlightened. Psychiatrists, I just wanted you to know the truth. If I can revive and revolutionize the spiritual psychology which was practiced by the raja Gurus, the brahmins of the Vedic age, I will feel that I fulfilled the mission for which I assumed the body.

Listen! If I revive the spiritual psychology practiced by rishis, brahmanas, rajaGurus, I will feel I have achieved my life's mission. That's the reason I tell all my kids, all the krama brahmacharis, to study psychology.

Understand, you are going to be studying psychology only. Get ready. I think Gurukul should get the psychology syllabus and start teaching it for all the krama brahmacharis from now on.

Instead of wasting time with information which is not useful – like, 'Who won the Panipat war?' What is he going to do with it? Do any of you even remember now? But every one of us studied this. Do you know who is going to win the war happening in your house? If you learn that, at least it's useful for your future!

Our education has become completely unnecessary with outdated information. This happened in my

When you catch the truth, you will easily understand how to go beyond logic.

life. I studied very little! I was studying for a diploma in mechanical engineering. I was supposed to be studying the subject of Machine shop engineering. I went to the workshop and they showed me a very costly machine. It's called MNC, multi- numerical computerized machine or something. They showed me MNC. Then I asked the professor: 'Sir, if I learn to work with this machine, will I get a job? Will I have the same kind of machine, sir?' He said, 'No, no, no. This is outdated , thirty years ago.' Now many modern machines have come since them. You will not be able to see any of these machines in any workshop. This is outdated since thirty years ago.'

Then I asked him, 'Why are we still keeping this in our syllabus?' He said, 'Usually, our syllabus in polytechnics and engineering colleges is thirty years outdated syllabus and subjects. In the last thirty years, we have not upgraded or updated our syllabus.' I said, 'Oh God, even if I study this, when I go out, it is not going to be useful in anyway, either for a job, or for life.' He said, 'No'. From that day, I stopped going to the machine shop. I said, 'Why should I go? What am I learning here that is going to be useful.' They said, 'No, it is like a base, a foundation. After you go out, you go to an industry. They will give you the training as to what you should do.' I said, 'It's better if I directly take the training there.'

That is why our Hindu education system is a complete failure in every line! Listen, in every line, the maximum we produce is clerks. The Hindu mind is a genius mind. Close to thirty four percent of NASA scientists are Hindus. In the US, Hindus are ruling in the field of psychology, psychiatry and medicine. The Hospital and hospitality industry of the US is completely in the hands of the Hindus. The hotels and motels are literally in the hands of Hindus. But unfortunately, one of the most untapped resources in Bharat is the power of youth, the youth power!

Youngsters are never allowed to think, by their colleges and universities, and the syllabus taught to them is the embodiment of boredom and tiredness!

When a child happens, he is so enthusiastic about everything. He wants to learn everything. The other day, my Gurukul Principal was reporting to me, 'Swamiji, the kids are learning anything and everything. Somebody is learning the piano, somebody is learning the flute and somebody is learning the tabla. They are learning anything and everything. Somebody is learning the veena. I tell you, this is what life is! Enthusiasm is such that anything seen is grasped. Eye means, anything seen should be grasped. Ears means, anything heard should be repeated. Hand means, anything shown, you should be able to recreate it. I tell you this from my experience.

My life has been steeped in temples, dressing the deities, worship in the religious dressings and the religious jewelry. I tell you, it has given me this ability - I can create anything I can see. I don't need to learn to stitch this curtain. I don't need to learn to weld this bar. I don't need to learn to operate this TV. I don't need to learn to carve this lion. Fortunately, when I was young, I was brought up in the ambience of temples, where I have seen all these so much. By seeing, seeing, and seeing, my hand can create anything that is seen. That is creativity!

Enthusiasm is such that anything seen is grasped. That is life!

Please listen, anything you see, you should grasp it. Anything you listen to, you should be able to repeat it. Kids are born with so much enthusiasm, but unfortunately the so-called education and books make them completely tired and bored of life. Anything which brings tiredness and boredom in your life is poison!

Let your principles of reviving you be enriching you and enriching others and not just zeroes in your bank balance. Every day, it is the zeroes in your bank balance or the jealousy with your competitors that is making you run. You will be sick and tired. If it is the principle of enriching you and enriching others that makes you run, I tell you, it is eternal fuel. You are like a solar-equipped vehicle. If it is jealousy and greed that make you run, you're running on petrol. You may dry out any day, your car will not move and you are working on a nonrenewable energy source.

If you are functioning out of this principle, if the principle of enriching yourself and enriching others is the fuel for you, I tell you, you are working on a renewable life source, on a renewable energy source. You are like a car that runs on solar power. You will never stop. You will run forever.

Make yourself run with renewable energy sources. That ís good for you and the world!

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Listen! Leaders are created with the DNA of responsibility. Take responsibility not only for everything. Only when you feel and decide that 'you' are responsible, you will look in that direction and solve the problem!

Today, I will expand on the third principle – 'Responsibility', and the unique relationship it carries, the unique equation it carries, to construct the reality of your choice.

Let me define responsibility once more. Please listen! I am defining responsibility.

Responsibility means, thinking, feeling, acting and cognizing life from the truth that you are the source of everything; therefore, you are responsible for all happenings inside you and around you.

Please listen! Responsibility is thinking, feeling, acting, responding and cognizing from the truth that you are the source of everything!

Listen! I am not talking to you about some corporate values and principles, or on something that rishis have uttered in the upanishads.

I am talking to you about what I have directly experienced, which you have to experience. I am talking from the context of being responsible for making you responsible.

Be very clear, the person who talks has only one reason – of making you responsible. I am responsible to make you experience responsibility as I have experienced it.

A person with eyes is responsible to give vision to a blind person.

• G A person with wealth is responsible to guide a poor man to wealth.
• G A person with power is responsible to make powerless people become powerful.
• G A person with energy is responsible to make energy-less people full with energy.
• G A person with knowledge is responsible to make ignorant people knowledgeable!

If you have knowledge, the moment you have knowledge, you become responsible to make the ignorant, knowledgeable. If you are powerful, you become responsible to make the powerless, powerful. If you are wealthy, you become responsible to make the poor, wealthy.

If you have knowledge, you become responsible to make the ignorant as knowledgeable.

Listen! I am not saying distribute your wealth. If there are ten poor people, and you distribute all your wealth to the ten poor people, then with you, we will have eleven poor people; that's all! With you, we will have eleven poor people; one more poor person! No! I am not asking you to distribute your wealth; I am asking you to take the responsibility of educating them and making them rich. You become responsible to share anything you own, and make it grow.

The Vedic tradition beautifully says, 'annam bahu kurveetha!' Let us create and share! This is the vision statement I have given for all the THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM annalayas that will start all over the world. All the satsanghis should know that I have initiated a project of sharing food all over the world, because sharing food is Vedic culture. We are an agricultural society. Vedic tradition is a grain-based society, a grain-based civilization. So, sharing was our lifestyle. That is why, no ritual, no festival, no celebration is complete in Hindu tradition, without sharing food.

annam bahu kurveetha When you own, you become responsible to make everyone own. Because I own responsibility, I own the responsibility of making everyone own the responsibility.

There are only two types of human-beings on planet Earth - those who feel responsible for everything and those who don't feel responsible for anything. These are the only two types of human-beings.

Listen! People who feel responsible become leaders. People who don't feel responsible continue to be slaves.

There are some people who don't feel responsible even for their own actions, because they forgot that their action is going to bring this result. Many times, even when they plan for business, they only plan who

they will hold responsible, if it fails! They don't plan to make it successful. Holding somebody else responsible is not going to solve your problem.

Plan for success! Don't plan for failure. When you plan itself, if you get a thought, 'If this fails what to do?' you immediately think, 'I will hold him responsible!' But you holding him responsible is not going to bring you success. Even as the thought comes - 'I will hold him responsible,' cut it. Holding somebody else responsible is not going to solve the issue. See to it that he is educated to make things successful.

Listen! How many of you cognize, what I am saying? Many times, when you plan itself, in your mind, if you think you can hold somebody responsible, you think that you have planned perfectly? Raise your hand.

You are wrong! Holding somebody else responsible is not going to make the work happen. Listen! Work not done plus valid reason is not equivalent to work done!

Work not done plus valid reason is not equivalent to work done! Only work done is equivalent to work done. Anything else is not equivalent to work done!

There are some people, the only thing they know is this – 'How to manipulate the boss? How to

People who feel responsible become leaders. People who don't feel responsible continue to be slaves.

answer the boss? How to stop the boss from pushing?' That's all! They spend their whole life with only this one thing and also retire with it! Of course, the day they join work and learn this art of not allowing anybody to make them feel responsible, they have retired! Retirement does not happen. It is not based on the day you stop going to the office. It is based on the day you stop taking responsibility!

You become responsible to make everyone responsible.

Listen! There are some people who don't take responsibility even for the actions they do or are supposed to do; they don't take responsibility even for their own existence! Because they did not visualize that the results will come in this way, for the actions they did. People who don't take responsibility even for their own actions remain as slaves forever!

Second, there are a few people who take responsibility for their actions. They live a middle-class life as human beings – with one house, one car, one wife, two kids, may be one affair somewhere. A middle-class life! This is what I call neo-middle-class, happening in Bharat. Life lived as mediocre, middle-class level, is not going to fulfill you!

There is another class - people who take responsibility even for others' actions. When you take responsibility even for others actions, for others' irresponsibility, you become a leader.

Even if you are not the reason for a certain happening, if it is affecting you, only if you take the responsibility will you solve it. I will tell you from my own experience. Only when I take responsibility even for others' actions, I will be able to solve the problem from the root, at the root level.

Whatever may be disturbing you and your life's mission, even if you are not the reason, you are responsible! Listen. Being a reason is different, being responsible is different!

Many times, even if you are not the direct reason, only when you take responsibility is it solved. Leaders are created with the DNA of responsibility. Responsibility is the software for a leader's inner space.

Again, I want to remind you. If an egg is broken from the outside, a life is destroyed; it is end of the life; life is killed. If the egg is broken from the inside, then life is happening; life is starting! If the egg is broken from the outside, life ends. If the egg is broken from the inside, life starts!

If your cognition is broken from the outside, you shrink, demolish yourself, destroy yourself and fall into depression. It happens if you are irresponsible! If you stand with responsibility, the egg breaks from the inside and life starts!

Take responsibility not only for your actions, but also for everything which affects your life, even if it is others' actions. Only when you feel and decide that you are responsible, you will even look into the direction of solving the problem. And only then will you solve the problem! Until then, you will just be blaming others with, 'He is responsible!'

If your cognition is broken from the outside due to irresponsibility, you shrink and fall into depression. But if you stand with responsibility, life starts!

'He is responsible!' 'He is responsible!' He is responsible, all right, but blaming one another is not going to make you successful! You can may be manage your boss by saying, 'He is responsible!', 'He is responsible!' But that will not solve the problem!

Why don't we take responsibility? If you receive ten thousand rupees salary from your office, as the first step in your life, you think, 'Oh, for this ten thousand rupees salary, I am already taking enough responsibility! Why should I take more responsibility when they are only paying me ten thousand?'

Don't be foolish! Taking responsibility is going to first help you to live an expanded life! It is not a favour that you are doing for your boss!

Listen! The first thing you need to understand is that the ten thousand rupees is not a measure of you and your service. Second, you need to understand that by you not taking responsibility, you are not destroying your boss's possibility; you are destroying your possibility! It is like you destroy your possibility and you think that your boss will be suffer. You drink poison and you expect your boss to die!

First, decide that you are going to be in your peak possibility by constantly taking responsibility. Taking responsibility is the right mental set-up. It is not as if you are doing a favour to anybody by taking responsibility. By taking responsibility, you are doing a favour to yourself ! It is the greatest favour you do to yourself. When you break the pattern, 'Why should I take responsibility,' your life starts! When you build the pattern, 'Why should I take responsibility' your death starts! When you stop taking responsibility, even if you are alive, you

are not living. You are just waiting to be buried!

Unless you feel that you are responsible, you will never look into solving any issue. Unless the cognitive shift of 'I am responsible for everything!' happens in you, nothing, nothing is possible! Listen! Let the cognitive shift happen in you. Let you understand, 'I am responsible for everything!'

• G A person who does not feel that he is responsible for anything lives as a slave.
• G A person who feels responsible for money becomes a vaishya.
• G A person who feels responsible for weapons becomes a kshatriya.
• G A person who feels responsible for knowledge becomes a brahmana.
• G A person who feels responsible for the whole world becomes a sannyasi!

A sannyasi is not a person who does not feel responsible. He feels responsible for the whole world! He is not an 'out-fit' of the society; he is an 'over-fit' for the society!

When you feel that you are responsible, I tell you, even your body will be ready to be healed, not just

Taking responsibility is going to first help you to live an expanded life! It is not a favour that you are doing for others.

the mind! When you feel responsible, your mind will already be healed, your body will be ready to be healed and even society will change its attitude towards you! Even the people with whom you live will change their attitude towards you!

Listen! The whole world is a hologramic structure, the universe is a hologramic structure. What is there in the macrocosm is also there in the microcosm. If you have seen a hologram, what is the largest picture in it? For example, if there is a ten-meter by ten-meter hologram or a picture or a photograph, even if you cut that into several ten-millimetre by ten-millimetre ones, the same picture will be there inside that. That is a hologram.

The universe functions with the principles of a hologram. It means, that whatever is in the macrocosm - the whole universe, is also there inside your body - the microcosm! If you dissect, dissect and dissect, go into a small atom, the brahmanda (macrocosm) will be there in the pindanda (microcosm). Whatever is there in the pindanda is there in the brahmanda. The cosmos functions with the principle of a hologram.

Responsibility is the DNA which awakens the cosmic hologram in you, the macrocosmic hologram in the microcosmic body. If you want to experience the macrocosmic hologram in the microcosm, awaken responsibility. When you feel responsible, your whole life changes!

The macrocosm and microcosm are just mirroring each other's possibility. When you feel the responsibility for existence, you become existence and existence feels responsible for you!

G If you feel that you are poor, take responsibility for it.

• G If you feel that you are sick, take responsibility for it.
• G If you feel that you are not having the right relationship in life, take responsibility for it.
• G If you feel that you are not in the right space, take responsibility for it.
• G If you feel that you are not in the right place, take responsibility for it.

Continuously take responsibility for everything!

I have seen some people shivering in front of responsibility. Responsibility is not death which has come to take away your life. It is Yama (Lord of death), who came to make you enlightened! Be authentic like Nachiketa. Then death will be Yama, who will make you enlightened!

Go on feeling constantly responsible, responsible, and responsible! Go on feeling responsible for everything. When you feel responsible, your inner space will find a solution for it.

Responsibility makes everything, from your ordinary desire to your desire for the ultimate space of desireless-ness, as reality in your life. From an ordinary desire to have a good meal

When you feel the responsibility for existence, you become existence and existence feels responsible for you.

tomorrow to your desire to be in the desire less space of enlightenment forever, everything becomes a reality. Everything is realized when you take responsibility.

Responsibility is not just a cognitive shift, it is a new cognition itself. With responsibility, a new life, a new possibility happens to you. A new being happens to you. You become a new person with everything. So, naturally, everything responds to you as a new person. Responsibility has universal value - as an individual for you to flourish in your life, as a family to be a stable family, as a team to deliver what you have to deliver, as a community to support each other - at every level. I tell you, when you serve teaching responsibility, you become a leader. I have seen many people serve for their whole life, but they never become leaders.

I started feeling responsible at the age of eleven. One day, there was a cricket match that was happening. I was eleven years old at that time. In those days, the radio was very popular. I was never interested in cricket from the beginning. In one cricket match, Bharat lost and Pakistan won. One of my classmates, a Muslim boy was jumping, enjoying and celebrating it. So my Math teacher told that boy, 'Ye, Bharat is your country! You should not celebrate the loss of Bharat!' But that boy said, 'No! My people taught me that Pakistan is our country!' So he was celebrating.

I watched this conversation, but could not understand. First of all, as an eleven year old boy I did not understand what Pakistan was and what Bharat was. And I also did not know what cricket was. But this Math teacher was kind of a close friend to me. I asked him, 'What is happening? Why are you telling that boy what you just told him now? He was my friend. We used to play together.'

In those days, the Hindu villages never had this problem of different religions and all that. It was like one family, one society. So I asked the teacher, 'Why are you telling him what you just told him?'Then the teacher explained to me, 'This is Bharat. That is Pakistan. Our country lost in cricket and he should not be celebrating for it. But he is celebrating it, because our enemy country won.'

I was only bothered about one thing. I asked him immediately, 'If our country lost, does that mean will they take away our temple?' That is the first thing I asked.

He said, 'No, no, no! It is only a cricket match! We will not lose Arunachaleshwara temple!' Because that was my life! I did not bother about what Bharat or Pakistan or cricket was. I only knew one thing – the Arunachaleshwara temple. The place where I used to play whole day and where I lived was very important in my life!

'Will they take away our temple?' That's all I asked him! He said, 'No, no, no! Don't worry! The temple will not be taken away. The temple will continue to be with us. After that I was not interested in anything. I left it. I said, 'Alright, then I don't care!' and I went away.

After a few days, in another situation, the teacher explained to a few of us who used to go to his

With responsibility, a new life, a new possibility happens to you. You become a new person with everything.

house for tuition. He said, 'Long ago, there was a riot in our place. Two religions and religious people attacked each other and killed each other. It was a Ganesh chaturthi festival.'

I asked him, 'What can we do so that this does not ever happen again?' He said, 'We should organize programs, festivals and functions. We should invite them to our functions and we should go to their functions.'

I said, 'Yes, I will do this,' and for the first time in my life, I organized a Ganesh chaturthi function and called some of my Muslim friends and celebrated it.

And then I went to the local mosque. After they finished their chanting, they would come and blow the through the mouth, and bless the visitors. This is still there in villages. Once they finished chanting their Quran, they would come out and blow the air by chanting Quran. So I went to attend that ritual.

I tell you, after I decided to take that responsibility, even my idea about myself changed. What I was feeling about 'me' itself has changed. I was a different person. I tell you, I'll say that this incident is more important for my happening than me spending time with Arunagiri Yogishwara!

LISTEN! Listen to the statement I am making! I will say that this incident is more responsible for my happening, because the incident with Arunagiri Yogishwar would have anyway happened. To realize who I am is not a big thing. But to take the responsibility for who I am is the real thing!

Realizing who I am is not the real thing. Taking responsibility for who I am is the real thing!

My experience with Arunagiri Yogishwara was only for the realization of 'who I am'. But this incident is about 'taking responsibility for who I am!'

That was the first function I organized. I went around and collected money from all of my premonastic family, friends, and even from people on the street. I went and called the temple officers, the local VIPs as guests, and organized a pandal with garlands and decoration items. I did the decoration myself with a few disciples and arranged all the music instruments and arathi vessels.

I think that I started almost all the departments that day - publication department, spreading department, temple, sacred-arts - I started almost all departments at the age of eleven! What we are now doing as sangha, I started doing this at the age of eleven! I tell you, I have just been continuously expanding, expanding and expanding from that time! Life is just expanding, expanding and expanding, nothing but expanding!

If you are a housewife, take responsibility for that. If you are working, take responsibility for that. If you are a father, take responsibility for that. If you are a student, take responsibility for that. If you are a son, take responsibility for that. Whatever

When I decided to take responsibility, even my idea about myself changed.

dimensions you have in your life, take responsibility for everything.

Unless you experience the ultimate as reality, you are not going to feel fulfillment, you are not going to experience completion. The ultimate will happen only when you take responsibility, only when you become responsible. Only when you become responsible does the ultimate happen!

Know very clearly that unless you take responsibility, nothing will be solved in your life. When you take responsibility, everything in your life will start happening as you want it. You will create the reality of your choice!

It is responsibility which makes you experience you that are a 'Being'. Only responsibility makes you experience that you are a possibility. Responsibility makes you experience everything you want in your life. Responsibility makes you experience the choice of your reality.

The essence of today's satsang is this. Only Responsibility can make you experience the reality of your choice. Responsibility makes you experience the highest possibility. Responsibility makes you experience the highest reality.

I bless you all to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Listen! One of the biggest problems we have is this - 'Let me have the power, status and position first. Then, I will take the responsibility.' No! Take the responsibility and build the state inside you. Then, the cosmos gives you the status.

I will expand on the unique equation and relationship that exists between the state of responsibility and reality.

Feeling responsible happens in you when you start practicing integrity and authenticity. Only when you start practicing integrity and authenticity, you will realize that you are responsible for feeling deprived, for all your powerlessness. You are responsible for everything you experience.

Listen! Only when you understand that you are responsible for anything you feel in you as an incompletion, powerlessness or the feeling of being deprived, you will even start thinking in the angle of taking responsibility. When a person takes responsibility, so much flowers in him, so much happens in him!

Sometimes, I used to wonder. I have seen that even among my devotees, of two persons who have completed M.B.B.S from the same batch and come out of the same college – after thirty years, one will be the MD of chain of hospitals, while the other will be sitting in the same old village, attending to the same old ten patients for ten rupee per patients, with a big magnifying glass reading the same old newspaper! Why is it that from the same batch, same college and same training, two people come out, but one becomes the MD of a chain of hospital, while the other sits inside his own chains? Sometime, the MD of the hospital would have failed in few subjects in the college; as stories usually have it! Why?

Listen! The only difference, the only reason for difference is this - Feeling Responsible! Feeling responsible!

Yesterday, one sadhu from North Bharat came to our ashram. He was talking to some of our sannyasis and sannyasinis in our Welcome Center.

When he saw all our sadhus intensely active, alive and working, he said, 'This is the first time I am seeing a Hindu organization with so much of activism!' He said that hundreds of them stay in his ashram. He said that he was tired of just

You are responsible for feeling deprived, for all your powerlessness. You are responsible for everything you experience.

sleeping in the room. He was literally crying. He said, 'I am a sadhu for te last thirteen years. I am tired of just sleeping, sleeping and sleeping in the room! I came to learn some kriya, yoga, ways of initiation and methods to practice spirituality and teach.'

But you know - this is the worst part of the human mind - once you are settled, the patterns settle inside you wasting your life. After that, even if you suffer because of it, you don't come out of it. He left that evening! He said, 'Even this air is so dynamic! Inside your campus, even breathing is so dynamic!' Literally! He came and met one of my ashramites! And after all, he met the wrong ashramite, who is so dynamic, she straight away said, 'Which department do you want to take? Do you want to be in the temple? Do you want to be in the kitchen?' But he left.

Please listen! I tell you, this is an important fact. It only takes just four days for your muscle-memory to taste laziness, boredom and tiredness and settle down with it!

If a tiger has not tasted the salty blood, the human blood which is the most salty blood, it does not become man-hunters or man-eaters. Once it tastes the human blood, it becomes a man-eater. Understand, for a tiger, it only takes one human body. Then the bio-memory and musclememory of the tiger settles for man-eating. If it has not already tasted the human blood, it doesn't hunt human-beings; it doesn't attack human-beings; it doesn't eat human-beings. If it attacks a humanbeing by mistake or by hunger or for protection and tastes the human blood – because the human blood is the saltiest blood – if they taste the human blood by mistake, only then do they start attacking human beings and they become man-eaters. Understand, one meal, human meal, is required for the tiger, one human flesh meal is required for the tiger's muscle-memory to settle down as a man-eater.

In the same way, human-beings only need four days to settle down with tiredness, boredom and laziness.

Please listen! I am talking on something very important and very mystical! I tell you, never ever take a vacation of four days, continuously in your life! Do not allow four days of vacation in your life! The very frequency in which you function is reduced. Because, in four days, your musclememory gets settled with tiredness, boredom and laziness! Even if you are without a job for four days, be active in something. Go and meet your friends and family. Take up some voluntary service. Do not be without responsibility for four days.

If you have some enemies and you want to destroy somebody, just somehow make him be without responsibility for four days. He will be destroyed! Don't do that to yourself ! Don't do that to yourself ! Don't be without responsibility for four days. You may ask, 'Why four days?' It takes four days for anything to become part of your muscle-memory. If you don't come for morning yoga and satsang for four days, on the fifth and sixth days, your musclememory will start proposing alternatives to you at that time. What are the alternatives? Sleeping, rolling on the bed, TV - there are so many things!

I want to tell all human-beings, whoever think of themselves as human-beings. Please listen! Do

It takes just four days for your muscle-memory to taste laziness, boredom and tiredness, and settle down with it!

not allow laziness, tiredness and boredom continuously for four days, because that will then become a part of your muscle-memory. In any field, especially if you are in the field related to the body, like dance, yoga, sports, gymnastics - anything related to body, I tell you, don't give a gap of four days! If you are a sculptor, painter, artist, dancer or yoga practitioner, don't give a break for more than four days. Please don't give a break. If you give a break for just four days, your practice will have a drastic reduction in quality on the fifth day!

Only when you take responsibility does life happens to your body. If you have any disease, take responsibility for it, so that you can heal, help heal and then take care that you don't attract that disease back again.

And in the same way, if you have broken a relationship because of your irresponsibility and unconsciousness, now take the responsibility. Next time, you don't do it. Life does not end by breaking one relationship. You don't need to be depressed or you don't need to start being in that same space. When you take responsibility, you can even patch up the relationship you broke. You can approach the person and rebuild the relationship.

I did not wait for anything else to come. Listen, one of the biggest problem we have is this 'let me have the power first, let me have the status first, let me have the position first, and then I will take the responsibility.' No! That does not happen in life! Take the responsibility, build the state inside you. Then, after you have been tested by the cosmos, it gives you the status. That status can never be taken away.

I took the responsibility for teaching the science of enlightenment. I took the responsibility in my life. I started living it, I started building the

state, and then human society has tested me enough. Now, I can simply see that many powerful positions are automatically coming towards me. Listen! I am not going in search of them. Responsibility attracts more responsibility. The problem is that we are afraid of more responsibility, so we deny even the responsibility that we have in our hand. But more and more responsibility adds more and more lifeenergy into you!

Why do you think these politicians don't die at all, even though everyone else is waiting for them to die? They live such a long life! No, really! Whether you like them or not, whether they are corrupt or non-corrupt, they take responsibility for something! At least they take the responsibility for their life to be a power centre. They take responsibility for something. They may be corrupt but when they take the responsibility, whether you want it or not, it is a cosmic law – life energy oozes in their muscle-memory, in their bio-memory, and they go on living! The rich old father-in-law and the rich old politicians don't die very easily! Even though there are so many waiting for them to die! When you take responsibility, life oozes in your muscle-memory for some reason. That is why they continue to exist.

A sannyasi is not 'out-fit' of the society; it is an 'over fit' of the society! A sannyasi is not 'out-fit' he is a 'over-fit'! Bharat needs at least a hundred

Responsibility attracts more responsibility.

thousand responsible sannyasis. Please listen! sannyas is not the lifestyle of depressed people or drop-outs. Consider this lifestyle. It is a lifestyle!

Feel responsible for everything you see around. If you see poverty around, feel responsible for it. If you see ignorance around, feel responsible for it. If you see lack of health around you, feel responsible for it.

Don't think, 'I am not the reason! I cannot be responsible!' You may not be the reason, but you are the cause! Sometime, you may not be the reason, but you are cause! Even if you are silently participating, you are cause.

Good people not working and not being active is the reason for all the bad things happening, more than bad people actively working! Bad people actively working is not the first reason for bad things happening. Good people not actively working is the first reason. Bad people actively working is only the second reason!

The first reason for terrorist attacks is not that the terrorists are actively working. The first reason is that good people are not actively participating with the society. Good people not actively participating in the society, in life, in the country - this is the first reason for all the bad things happening.

That is what our immediate need is. If you see corruption around you, take responsibility for it. If you see poverty around you, take responsibility for it. If you see ignorance around you, take responsibility for it. Take responsibility for everything.

When you take responsibility for everything, you will automatically

become a sannyasi. Only a responsible sannyasi can solve the existing problem and bring a solution.

Take the responsibility. Even if you can't take sannyas, decide to take the responsibility for your life and the lives of the people around you. You will bring the right space.

Life itself does not happen inside your body, inside your nervous system and inside your brain without taking sannyas, without taking responsibility. sannyas means taking all the responsibility but not any powers or rights, continuously taking responsibility and making everyone experience responsibility.

The youth of Bharat need to be inspired, encouraged and initiated into responsible sannyas! Responsibility alone can build you, build the nation and enrich humanity. Bharat becoming an inspiring spiritual leader is not only a necessity for Bharat but a necessity for the whole world!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

A sannyasi is not 'out-fit' of the society but an 'over fit' of the society!

As on now, man is only a possibility. A human being has everything needed in him to become the ultimate reality; the divine reality. Only when these four principles become a reality, do you experience your actuality.

Today's subject for the Nithya satsang is about living these principles as a natural flow of life.

Please understand, these four principles of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching exist in our very DNA. A seed becomes a tree or man realizes his potential only when these four principles are lived. As of now, man is only a possibility. Only when these four principles become reality do you experience your actuality. A human being has everything needed in him to become the ultimate reality, the divine reality. These four spiritual principles continuously inspire, exert and make you experience your ultimate possibility. As I said yesterday, the DNA - the very structure with which the human consciousness is built, the natural law of human life – in Sanskrit we use the word dharma – are these four principles!

• With integrity, the innate intelligence to expand is straightened; the space of positivity is awakened.
• With authenticity, life continuously oozing out in your system is ensured.
• With responsibility, standing up for what you represent happens.
• With Enriching, the ultimate result of you establishing your existence into everything, happens.

You establishing your existence into everything is what I call 'serving'. In any form of serving or enriching, you expand and become part of it.

Perception is the process happening with the facts and your patterns.

'How you want to see the facts' and 'the facts' - perception is achieved by putting both these together.

When you bring integrity into you, when you bring complete integrity into your thinking, the words you utter to you and to others will be experienced as your very life.

The word which comes out of your life source does not leave or get disconnected from your life source. So, what happens to those words affects the source of your life. Please understand, it is not like you give a word, and then you and the word are not connected, whether the word is fulfilled or unfulfilled, as if it is no way related to your life source. No! The word continues to be connected with you, because it is delivered from you.

Even though your child is out of your body after you deliver it, it is

When you experience the words you utter to you and to others as the extension of your life, they directly affect you. When the words uttered by you are not listened to, the completion is disturbed. I tell you, if you are talking, and a few people in front of you are completely restless and not listening to you, you will never be able to express the complete ideas which you are about to express. You will not be able to have completion in your delivery. Even in your house, if the person to whom you are talking to is not listening, if the person is not in the space of listening, the ideas you are going to express will never be delivered. It may lead to an argument, but it may never lead to intelligence transfer. Information transfer is argument. Intelligence transfer is listening. In arguments, information can be transferred, but never intelligence. Only in listening can intelligence can be transferred.

So understand, I am not proposing this theory of integrity as ethics or morality. No! Ethics or morality is very superficial, skin deep. I am proposing integrity as an Inner Awakening process, where your possibility is awakened and your rights are reclaimed.

Integrity is not your responsibility. It is your right!

For example, there is a treasury in a room. I give you the key and force you to go and open it and see it, saying 'Go and open and see! Go and open and see!' You may think, 'What is this? This Swami is forcing me! He is making me do something which is a responsibility, which is work for me!' But until you open and see the treasury for yourself, whatever I say is a responsibility or a work for you. Only when you open and reclaim it, will you understand that it is your right! When you start living integrity, amazing powers express through you. Then you will realize that integrity is not just your responsibility, it is your right! It is simply your birthright!

Understand, every word uttered by you is an extension of you, and continues to be an extension of you until it is completed either by fulfillment or by completion. Your words continue to exist. They do not die. The words you utter do not die down. In the same way, the words you utter to yourself also do not die down. They continue to exist and disturb and alter your perception!

I can give you an example. Just go on telling yourself for the next ten days, 'I am healthy and energetic! See how young I have become! Suddenly I have become alright! Suddenly I am healthy! Suddenly I am feeling so energetic!'I It will look like a lie for the first two or three days. And for the next two or three days, it will look like hypocrisy. After a week, you will see that it becomes your way of expressing you. And after ten days, your perception about you will change!

Please understand, your perception about you will change, because the words uttered are not dead! They don't disappear in the air. They continue to exist and influence you. The words uttered continue to exist and influence you - the space of perception.

In the same way, you can try the other way round.

If you go on telling everybody, for the next ten days, 'I am sick! I am sick! I am sick! I have become old! I don't think I can move my leg! I don't think I can move my hand! I have joint pains! I have this! I have that!' Go on repeating this for ten days. You will not only feel sick but you will feel like you can't move out of your bed! You can either make yourself sick or healthy, just by the words you utter! Making you fall sick by the words you utter is very easy. How many of you cognize what I am saying? In your life you can see it very clearly.

So understand, the words you utter are not disconnected from you. They are not dead in the air. In the same way, the words you utter to yourself are also not dead in your inner space. Just go on repeating the word, 'Wow! What a life! What excitement! So many new-new things are happening every day! I am really excited! I am going to live it! I am going to make it!' Go on repeating these words. I tell you, even your loans, debts, problems will look new and exciting to you! Even your sufferings will look new every day and will look like challenges and will be exciting for you!

There is the other way round, try repeating inside you, 'It is boring! I don't think I can make it! I think suicide is the only way! Life is not going to happen!' Try to repeat this for ten days! You will see thateverything will be boring! When you wake up early in the morning, you don't even want to open your eyes. You will say, 'No, let me lie down for one more hour...' When you can't lie down any more, you will be irritated about the coffee not being hot enough or sweet enough. The agitation will start. Boredom leads to intense agitation towards reality. The constant irritation or agitation is a direct result of boredom, and the wrong words being repeated inside you, by yourself to yourself !

The words you utter to you and and to others continue to influence your perception. The space of perception, the space where you perceive things, can be purified into the ultimate positivity, by integrity. When you continuously live integrity, you will become aware of the thoughts and processes happening in your inner space. So, with this one concept, integrity purifies your perception and creates tremendous positivity.

Sometimes people ask me, 'Will my cancer be healed if I repeat again and again, "I am healthy! I am healthy! I am healthy!"? It looks too much!'

I am talking with clarity and responsibility. By repeatedly practicing integrity, cancer can be cured! I have done it for thousands of my disciples. Please understand, complete practice of integrity within you and outside you can cure even diseases like cancer! I am responsible for what I am saying. Please understand, I am responsible for what I am saying.

I am not insensitive to your suffering. Don't think, 'He is a Guru sitting in a deep cave in a forest, not having any problems around him, having the beautiful Ganga water and fruits, and resting his whole life. And that is why he can say, 'Life is beautiful, smooth, glorious! Don't have suffering!' No! I am a Guru having enough problems! I have faced enough of persecution! With this, I am telling you - suffering is an option! Your perception is an option! The space of perception can be purified to the space of ultimate positivity, by integrity.

I will move to the next truth - how authenticity can lead you to the space of possibility!

Let me describe authenticity once more - raising yourself constantly to your peak possibility to yourself, and your peak possibility to others. What you are for you, and what you are for others - raising yourself constantly to the peak of both is authenticity.

We usually don't have a problem raising ourselves to the peak of what we are for us. Just look in and see what you are for you. Many times, you are just a nagging fighter for you, from whom you can't even have divorce! No, look in! Then you will understand what Krishna says - uddhared ātmanātmānaṁ nātmānam avasādayet - raise yourself by yourself !

Sometimes people ask, 'Why do we need an incarnation like Krishna to tell us this?' If you practice it, you will understand that so much needs to be done in the field of raising you, to you!

Listen! If you cognize restlessness in you, an inability to be at peace with you, be very clear that you have a constantly nagging, fighting self, which does not allow you to be in tune with you. I will give you one example. Many times people tell me that when they go to a temple and stand in front of the deity, or when they go to a Guru with some request, their inner space will come up with so many options, 'Ask this! Ask this! Ask this!' Finally, they will be so confused about what to ask that they just come back silently! Or, sometimes, even when you go to talk to your boss to ask for a day off, or to ask for something, you are so messed up in your inner space that you will not be able to handle the conversation. You collapse and come back! Why consider your boss, sometimes you will not be able to handle the conversation even with your friends, you collapse and come back!

Understand, how many of you experienced this in your life - not being able to handle the conversation, collapsing and coming back? All of you have a deep restlessness within you! Not being able to handle a conversation is the direct side-effect of being unable to handle your perception about you. You may ask how these two are connected. I will expand. There is a deep dissatisfaction about your perception of who you are and your expectation about who you should be. Why is it so? Because you do not feel that you are responsible to create who you want to be. You think that suddenly one morning you will wake up, and by some boon or a blessing or miracle, you will be who you want to be! If the gap between who you are and who you want to be is without responsibility, it is greed. If it is with responsibility, it is possibility! When there is no responsibility-bridge, it is greed. When you are building the responsibility-bridge to achieve that who you want to be, then it becomes a possibility; it is no more greed!

The bridge is the responsibility. Even Rama has to build a bridge to reach Sita! When you add responsibility to your greed, the gap suddenly reduces. The gap reduces drastically! Responsibility infused into thinking removes the agitation and disconnection with you. Please understand, the disconnection existing between you and your possibility is the reason for non-communication. How many of you feel that you have stage-fear, you cannot communicate on the stage and you cannot speak in front of a crowd? Raise your hand.

I tell you, you cannot even speak with you! Speaking with you and speaking with a crowd is one and the same!

Sometimes you can see, even if you want to achieve something, after three or four arguments with yourself you say, 'Ah, why think of all these things? Leave it! Anyhow, all this will not enter my head! I can't do all this!' You just drop the conversation with you. It means that you are not able to handle your own doubts! If you say, 'I'll be successful in this! I'll achieve this,' one part of your mind immediately creates doubts! 'How can this be? See your past performance! See your qualification! How do you say that you are going to achieve it? How is it possible for you?' Then you don't have an answer, and you just dump it by saying 'No, No! I will do it somehow..!' You escape from that conversation!

How many of you cognize that you have these kind of conversations in you?

So, you are not able to even handle yourself ! There is a communication gap between you and you! The communication is not happening even between you and you. You are not able to convince even you! Then how are you going to get onto the stage and convince the people in front of you? When you are not even able to convince you, you develop a feeling that you are a fool, that you are stupid.

Please understand, however much you try to push the incomplete conversations with you under the carpet, they do not die. They run around under the carpet like Tom and Jerry! See, in the Tom and Jerry cartoon, the Tom or Jerry who has gone under the carpet does not keep quiet or sleep! He keeps running around! You can see the carpet going up and down!

In the same way, the incompletions pushed under your inner space, say, 'No, no, no, no, no! Why are you asking too many questions? Somehow I will win! Keep quiet!' Without completing, if you push your own questions under the carpet, they will not die! They will not keep quiet. Now or tomorrow, today or tomorrow, you have to face those questions. You have to face those incompletions. You have to face that part of you. When you can't face that part of you, when you can't communicate with that part of you, non-communication becomes your lifestyle.

I tell you, if you are not able to get onto a stage and speak, and if you are not able to communicate to a group of people, I will call that as a sickness! I will not call that as inability, I will call that as a sickness! You should be given handicap allowance! Unfortunately you do not understand the root of the reason, the root of the problem. You unable to communicate to a group of people is a serious illness! From my experience, I will term that as 'unable to live life; being handicapped!' Understand, a person who is not in communication with himself will not be able to communicate with a group.

The other secret you need to know is this - you are not an individual, you are a group living in one body! When I ask somebody their name, and if they say, 'I am Ramachandran', I say, 'No! You should say Ramachandran & Co living in one body!' Each one of us are a group living in one body! If you can handle your questions and have communication with you, I tell you, you can communicate with any number of people! You can speak on any stage, with any group!

The ability to speak to a group of people or communicate to a group of people is not something extraordinary. It is your basic survival need. Only with that capacity does your life start. Because for

Any achievement, you need to share your ideas with people, you need to enroll others into it. If you do not have that capacity, you will be working all alone. If your vision has not become the mission of many people, it can never be realized as a reality! Only when your mission becomes the mission of many people, it can it become reality, in any field, in any field!

So, the essence of today's satsang is this. Practicing integrity creates the space of positivity in you, and practicing authenticity creates the space of possibility in you.

The clear decision that you will continuously expand your possibility for you, and you will not be satisfied with what you are now, is more than enough! You do not need any other separate practice. That is the good news I have for you! You do not need to do any other sadhana, practice, blowing the nose or standing upside down. No! Nothing is required. A conscious decision is enough!

Why do you think Zen Buddhism has become so popular all over the world, But Advaita vedanta hasn't? Originally, Zen is from Advaita vedanta. It has evolved from the Advaita philosophy. But Zen has become popular, but not Advaita. The reason is that Zen emphasizes on the truth of declaration. The decision is enough. The cognitive shift is enough! Unfortunately, we advaitis are somehow stuck with some form of practice, without making people understand the importance of cognitive shift. The cognitive shift itself will make you live the principles. It is unfortunate that we do not understand the importance of cognitive shift. We think that some form of practice is required. I do promote spiritual practices like kriyas, yoga and pranayama, for the purpose of purifying your bio-memory, purifying your body and to cure some diseases. But I tell you, that is not the first priority in spiritual

life. It may be like a pickle, but it is not the main meal! The main meal is cognitive shift! Shift in your cognition, shift in your perception, shift in your decision!

I will move to the next principle, the third principle. I will remind you by giving you the gist.

With integrity, the inner space is raised to positivity. There is so much of miscommunication with you, by you. Many times, you are not able to handle your own doubts and your own questions. Do not suppress your questions about you. Face them with responsibility. Come to reality. Your questions about you are nothing but reminding you to be in reality. Reminding you to be in, with and for reality, reminding you to be in reality, with reality and for reality!

If you dig deep, you will see that the corner of your mind which is questioning you is the totality of all the people in your life - your teacher, your uncle, your critics, your mother-in-law! All of them put together will be sitting as a part of you, inside you. Learn to handle that part. You will expand your possibility!

When part of you is not in communication with you, you will also not be in communication with others. You will also not be able to convince others about anything that you yourself are not convinced

Do not suppress your questions about you. Face them with responsibility and come to reality.

about. Please understand - you yourself will not be able to convince others about anything for which you yourself are not convinced about. S, answer that part of you that continuously questions you, without suppressing it. Now are you getting it? Answer that part of you which is criticizing you, without suppressing it or brushing it aside, taking that part also into confidence with you in your flow of life.

See, for example, you declare, 'I will make a hundred crores worth of money!' One part of you immediately starts questioning you.

'You fool! You can't even work for eight hours a day! you try to cheat, escape and run away at the office itself ! What kind of a fellow are you? You neither work nor encourage others to work! So how are you going to make a hundred crore rupees?'

Then another part of you says 'Don't ask me too many questions. I will have it!'

'How'?

'Don't ask all that! I will have it!'

So, naturally, what is it? It is only suppressing the questioning part of you. If you take responsibility for that part, you can have a breakthrough. When you start taking responsibility, you will melt down that part which constantly criticizes you, and that part will become part of you!!

Any part, which is not a part of the solution, IS the problem! Even in your workplace, in your team, in your company or in your house, if you are not a part of the solution, you are the problem! Any part which is not a part of the solution is the problem! When you take responsibility, the hundred crore may finally be fifty crores or two hundred crores, but you will be in tune and aligned with your solution, with your life's flow. That is what I call authenticity!

Authenticity means you being in the peak of what you mean to you. How many of you are able to cognize what I am saying? Raising you to be what you mean for you, is authenticity. Authenticity is not just transparency. No! That is one dimension of authenticity.

The Sanskrit word shraddha is the all-encompassing translation of the word authenticity. But authenticity is not the all-encompassing translation of the word shraddha. See, our language Sanskrit originated for the purpose of enlightenment. So the depth of the ideas these words convey can't be translated in English, because English originated for the purpose of expressing love; the ordinary human emotions like sex, fear, love, jealousy, war - the ordinary life. So the language also has only that much of depth. But the Sanskrit language was evolved to communicate that which is beyond communication! So naturally, the language has to be so subtle, so subtle!

I translate the word shraddha as authenticity, with the definition of 'being in the peak what you mean to you and what you mean to others'. That's all! What are you supposed to mean to you? Why do you have Y O U in your life? You need to have you in your life for the fulfillment of whatever you understand as a goal of your life. Am I right? The fulfillment of your goal is the reason why you have you in your life. You have so many people in your

When you start taking responsibility, you will melt down that part which constantly criticizes you, and that part will become part of you.

life as part of you – your son, your father, your mother, your daughter, your wife, your daughter-in-law, your mother-in-law, your boss, your employee. So many people are involved in your life. So many people are there as part of your life. Each one of them plays a role, brings something and adds something to your life.

Why do you need YOU to be part of your life? To fulfill what you understand as the goal of your life - always being in the peak of what you mean for you! Remember the best moments of your life. Sometimes, it will be moments of great pleasure. Sometimes, it will be moments of the highest sacrifice. Sometimes, it will be moments of great achievement. And sometimes, it will be moments of having the right knowledge in your life, when you had spiritual experience in your life. Continuously keeping to that peak as a lifestyle is what I call authenticity.

You would have had that peak when you saw big money happening in your life, or a big social success happening in your life, or a sense pleasure happening in your life, or some big knowledge or a spiritual experience happening in your life. It varies from person to person. If you look back, what is the peak moment of your life?

• G If you look at some big money that happened in your life as the peak moment of your life, you are a vaishya.
• G If you look at social success, some award, reward or victory that happened as the peak moment of your life, you are a kshatriya.
• G If you think that the sense pleasure you experienced was the peak moment of your life, sorry to say, you are a shudra! Because that will not be repeated too many times. The peak moments, if they are dependent on the physical pleasure of your life, which can't

be repeated again and again, you will be a shudra, looking for those moments of your life with greed and deep unfulfillment.

• G If you feel that knowledge is the peak moment of your life - some knowledge or some click happening in your brain about life, some clarity or some enlightenment moment as the peak moment of your life, you are a brahmana. Community is not by birth, but by quality of your being!

When you remember you, what do feel about you? When you sit with you, do you remember you as a peaceful, joyful friend, or as an enemy who will imbalance you at any time? Do you remember you as a bunch of patterns which you are not able to control, and which make you continue to lose things in your life because of your self-made mental set-up and patterns?

Sometimes, I have seen that people are not able to give up that one pattern of constant agitation and irritation. They lose thousands of people in their life, but they will not give up that one pattern! Just for one pattern that they do not give up, they give up thousands of people in their lives!

I have a question here: 'Swamiji, how do we drop our

Why do you need YOU to be part of your life? To fulfill your goal of life - always being in the peak of what you mean for you!

The question 'how' cannot be answered in a few minutes. It needs a long answer. Actually, I don't directly answer all the 'how' questions. I create the ambience and ideas in such a way that you discover the answer. Only when you discover, do you practice. The human mind is such! Sorry to say this, it is so unfortunate, but the human mind is so arrogant. It never practices the solutions given by others; it only practices the solutions discovered by it. So whenever people ask me the question 'how', I put two hundred things in front of them, they make the combination of that two hundred and come up with their own solution and they practice only that!

So practice the tattvas, and you will find your own solutions. And I repeat, integrity brings the space of positivity and authenticity brings the space of possibility in you.

I bless you all to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Listen! The areas where you feel any kind of powerlessness in your inner space are the areas where you have allowed the incursion to happen. Life is all about reclaiming your inner space!

In Sanskrit, we have a beautiful word called 'chidaakaasha'. chidaakaasha is the space which you call as your consciousness. Another beautiful word - chidhambaram means what you feel as you. That is called chidaakaasha or chidambara in Sanskrit.

I want to insist on this one idea. Ramana Maharshi says, 'We are all soul, consciousness.' Shankara says, 'The whole world is consciousness, there is nothing other than consciousness, brahma satyam, jagat mithya.' George Gurdjieff says, 'You don't have a soul, you have to earn it!'

All three of them are right! Please understand, all three of them are right! Until you experience it, it is good to think that you don't have it. Otherwise, because you think you have it, you do not put any of your energy to experience it. When I drive around the city, I see people unconsciously walking.

Please understand, I want to give you the exact glimpse of how an enlightened being sees the world. When I drive around, I literally get

Part 9: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

frightened! Because I see that everyone is walking and driving in a deep sleep! Accidents are not news to be reported; it is the non-accidents that are news to be reported!

Listen, what you experience as you and you looking at the world through the eye - between these two actions, there are one-hundred layers! So, the chidambara, chidaakaasha, the individual consciousness is not seeing! Even this morning, I was driving to come to this venue. And I saw that by the time it reaches the eyes to see and process the fact, millions of obstacles, bumps, highways, sign-boards, exits, 'take-diversion', 'construction ahead', don't go in that road, barricades! I didn't want to stay in that same space continuously; I just closed the eyes and shut myself down. Because, when I looked around, I saw that my driver is also in the same space and driving!

My only request is this - just give me your listening. Don't judge that I am talking something impractical. Don't judge that I am talking something philosophical. I am not talking any philosophy. I am not even interested in inspiring you to do something. My morning satsangs are nothing but my bathroom songs! That is the truth! When you are in a relaxed, joyful mood, when you take bath, out of your joy you hum some tunes which are there in your inner space for last few days. Just like that, whatever is there in my inner space for

You don't have a soul, you have to earn it.

the last few days, I come and hum that tune, sing that song!

Don't have that seriousness that I am giving you some philosophy. Don't even feel that I am here to enlighten you. Then you will become too serious and you will have too many concerns. 'If I become enlightened what will happen to my job? What will happen to my wife!' And you have your own weird ideas about enlightenment! Nothing, just give me your listening, as a sweet song. Suppose you are staying with your friend and if that guy is singing in the bathroom, you will have the curiosity to put your ears to see what this guy is up to? What is he doing? What song is he singing? How with the simple curiosity you will try to listen, give me that listening and I commit with you, I will transmit my chidambara to you!

Your simple listening is enough for me to transmit my chidambara, chidaakaasha to you! Life is nothing but expanding the space of what you feel as you. That's all! Nothing else, that's all!

Creating the chidambara, the right inner consciousness, the right inner space, is not a big sadhana, spiritual practice. It is not some big achievement. Just stop believing that it is impossible. Stop identifying with how you achieve something in your life. For example, you first find a job; and then you find methods to impress your boss; then you get your promotion; then you conduct your meetings and then you make Powerpoint presentations, impress people, get higher promotions, have the money you want and you continue to save the money, buy what you want. You strongly believe that everything can be achieved only by this math. Just give yourself a break from this math! That's all I am requesting you.

You do not need anything, any practice other than expanding what you feel as you. If you have a headache, decide that you are responsible for it. Then you will simply expand and understand that you are residing in your head. If you think that the headache is a suffering and it came for various reasons, you give up your ownership on that space and that space is now declared as a conflict zone.

Please understand, it is just like the neighboring countries' incursion into your country! They come into your border, put some tents and then declare that as a conflict zone! After they declare that as a conflict zone, they take two strategic points and say, 'Alright you give up ownership over these two points, we will give all the other points back to you!' Negotiate! Finally, they get those two points and give up the other points. We think we won! We won! And we come and give a big press meet and news that we won! Boost ourselves! But actually what happened? We lost two points, two strategic points which will be very useful for them if there is a war!

maya works in exactly the same way! You may have a headache, some agitation, a slight stomach pain, maybe a little pain in the calf muscles, the moment you accept all that as a disturbance by external reasons, over! Your chidambara, your chidaakaasha has shrunk now. Now that zone is already declared as a conflict zone. Now it is a conflict zone. Now maya can negotiate with you. 'Alright, you

Creating the right inner consciousness, the right inner space, is not a big spiritual practice. Just stop believing that it is impossible.

don't disturb me in this area, I won't disturb you in that area!' This negotiation literally goes on. Your authenticity is your ambassador on who is negotiating on your behalf.

Please understand, maya will say, 'Alright, don't unnecessarily try to show that you are a big guy! You are under me. I will relieve you from the headache. But just be normal. Don't try to be extraordinary. Don't try to go on believing these foolish things that this THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM is telling you: "You are extraordinary! You are God!" No! You are under me!'

Then you settle down. 'Okay, what can be done? Let me at least be out of the disease.' You settle down and now you feel you are healed. You come out and tell, 'See I became alright! I became alright!' But in the inner space you are already compromised! Please understand, the incursion is a direct, straight, right example. maya is continuously making incursions into you. Your inauthenticity is such that you go on allowing maya to win, but you go on bragging that you are winning! If you allow more and more zones to be declared as conflict zones, more and more destruction starts happening in your life.

Today, do this as a home-work. Sit and pen down all the areas that are already taken away by maya. For example, 4.30am to 6am in the morning is brahma muhurta. If you can't get up in the morning and do your yoga, or your kriya and do your spiritual practice, be very clear, that part is already claimed by maya; the border boundary is gone to maya! It is not any more in your chidambara! It is not any more your chidambara! It means that your territory is gone! Now, maya will be also make the incursion into your satsang time!

Everywhere, everywhere, it is the fight between you and maya - in your health, in your relationships, in your attitudes, in your patterns, everywhere! maya knows if she makes you sleep for one more hour, you will not wage an all-out war on maya. They know that if they just do a little incursion in the border, Bharat will not go for an all-out war. Wherever you allow the incursion of maya, you lose your chidaakaasha.

Life is all about reclaiming your chidaakaasha. Just see, how your border shrinks wherever inauthenticity is allowed allowing incursions. I can see that many human beings are doing vanavaasa! Just like the Pandavas were completely kicked out of their kingdom, your ownership, your space is not there in your body. You are kicked out! You are there in vanavaasa. Your body is living. It is being used by maya - your inauthenticity! When maya is using your body, you don't even know what you do, why you do, what time you do, why you are living, why you are making money, why you have married, why you are having kids, why you are studying and exactly what is going to happen? Nothing! It is just there! It is just there! It is just there!

You don't need any spiritual practice! You don't need any spiritual activity! You don't even need learning! I tell you, you don't even need the four tattvas! I go to that extreme! If you just reclaim your possession - that which belongs to you, your chidambara, your chidaakaasha; that is enough! When you have a headache, if you feel powerless in front

Wherever you allow the incursion of maya, you lose your inner space.

of your headache, you have already given up your head to maya! It is no more in your inner space! It is no more your border! It is no more your chidaakaasha! It is no more your chidaakaasha! If you feel anger, violence, vengeance, lust or fear is suddenly rising in you and making you do some actions for which you repent later, be very clear, when those emotions have overpowered you, when they were ruling you and making you do some actions, you have gone to vanavaasa!

That is all I am saying. What is your body? What is your mind? What is your emotion? Powerfully reclaim it! Don't come back to me like a beggar with a powerless mood, 'How can I have my own mind under my control, can you tell me?' Once you are married, you don't go around and ask, 'How can I have kids?' You are a man! You know it! Once you are initiated, you don't go around and ask, 'How can I reclaim my mind to me? How can I reclaim my body to me?' It is simple decision! Sometimes, I can't understand when people ask me, 'How can I reclaim my mind?' Then why are you having it? 'How can I reclaim my body?' Then why are you having it? It is a simple decision!

Please understand, it is a very simple decision! No, even though you are not ready to listen I am not going to be bored of repeating the same thing! Let me see whether you get bored of non-executing my teaching or I get bored by continuously repeating. It is a simple, aggressive decision!

You don't need any other spiritual practice other than aggressively reclaiming your boundary. Tell yourself, 'My body! My head! There won't be any headache! It is mine! I will be the owner! It will be under my control! My inner space, I will be the owner! There will not be any confusion or worry or low mood! My inner space, I will be the owner! There will not be any incursions or interference!'

Weakness is the death which you give yourself. Nobody can save you. Vivekananda is right when he says, 'Nobody can save a person filled with weakness!' Arre! You don't need to swim and save yourself ! If I come in the ship and throw the rope, you can at least hold the rope so that I can lift you! If you don't have the power even for that, then nobody can save you!

Aggressive reclaiming of your inner space is enough! Nothing else is required! Don't be mesmerized by ideas like - you are old, you allowed your wrong patterns into your body for a long time, you have been weak for ages, years! No!

When you are a man, you just know what to do with your life. When you are a living being, you just know how to reclaim your body and mind. Reclaiming your inner space to yourself is what i call authenticity! The decision to reclaim is integrity. Reclaiming is authenticity. After reclaiming, using it for your life's mission is responsibility. And enriching, helping other beings to do the same is enriching. It is all about reclaiming your inner space!

The areas where you feel any kind of powerlessness in your inner space are the areas where you have allowed the incursion to happen. In advaitic tradition, there is a beautiful book called swaaraajya siddhi. - which means, 'reclaiming your own

Authenticity is reclaiming your inner space. The decision to reclaim is integrity.

kingdom'. I tell you, life is all about swaaraajya siddhi – reclaiming your kingdom! It is simply possible, by authenticity! Every day, go on deciding that you are going to reclaim more inner space of your life, more space of your life today. For example, after working eight hours, if you are tired by 5pm, you are allowing the maya inside. Decide, 'I will reclaim two more hours of my space to me. I will not allow tiredness until 7pm.' After a week, then decide, 'I am not going to allow tiredness until 9pm.' Reclaim your time, your mind, your inner space, your body to you. What you feel as you stands as you!

I continuously promote body-building and support people doing yoga or anything related to body-building; whether it is running or gymming or exercising or yoga. I support anything related to body-building, because you reclaim your space, your power over your body, your say over your body! Just like body-building, practicing these principles is 'mind-building'. Reclaiming your body and mind is 'consciousbuilding'. Build your inner space. Build your chidambara. Build your chidaakaasha. You will see, Mahadeva will be blissfully dancing! If you look, you will see, his face is your face! You are dancing there! There is no separate Mahadeva! It is you dancing! Reclaim your chidambara. You will see Mahadeva dancing in chidambara! This is the secret of chidambara – chidambara rahasya!

In Tamil Nadu, there is the Chidambara temple. This is the chidhambara rahasya! Reclaim your body and mind by integrity, authenticity, responsibility, enriching and aggressiveness! When you reclaim your body to your life, your mind to your life, be aggressive! Powerlessness cannot help you reclaim your chidambara. Weakness cannot help you to reclaim your chidambara. Be aggressive when you reclaim your chidambara!

See, if you want you can raise your right hand. If you want, you can smoke. If you want, you can eat. This is normal power for you. In the same way, only when I create the civilization of human-beings, with what you call as 'miracle powers', living all that as a normal power, only then will I rest! My mission is to create human-beings living extraordinary powers as normal powers, as a normal lifestyle! You don't claim raising your hand as a miracle, because everyone can do it. At least, majority can do it. In the same way, I will make sure that majority of the humanity has their body, mind, time and their inner space under them; they own their inner space under them!

I tell you; your inner space is not an individual, isolated, island, as you think. All of us are connected in the inner space. So, for anything you do in your chidambara, the whole world supports you. That supports the whole world. Anything is done in chidambara, the cosmos makes it as reality. The world makes it as reality. The cosmos says tathaasthu – So be it! Even if you experience a little bit of the powers of chidambara, you will not have the greed for perverted powers like political power, social power, power which you feel by abusing others, power which you feel by ruling over others. No! All these are the perverted powers. Power perversions! I tell you, if you experience even little bit of your chidaakaasha powers, the powers of your chidaakaasha, you will simply be free from the greed for power!

Your inner space is not an individual, isolated, island, as you think. All of us are connected in the inner space.

One of my sannyasi asked me the other day, 'Swamiji, we people who live around you, we don't feel that you are such a powerful person. We only feel that you are a relaxed child or kid playing around in a relaxed way. That is the way we feel when we are around you, based on your vibes or words, behavior, actions, lifestyle.'

I told him, 'Not only you, but even I feel like that!' This is because I have tasted my chidaakaasha, I do not have the greed for perverted powers. So, even if those powers are lying around me, I am neither excited by it nor inspired by it, nor do I even feel like tasting it. If you enjoy beautiful food in your kitchen, you will not feel like eating or drinking from the drainage outside your house. When you don't have anything, you are really thirsty or you are about to die; then nothing can be done. Only then will you feel, 'Alright, at least let me drink the drainage water!' If you have good food, beautiful food, nice food in your kitchen, why will you go and drink the drainage water?

Power perversion is drainage water! Perverted powers are drainage water! I tell you, people who are greedy for power just need only one thing - knowledge of their inner space and the simple decision to reclaim their inner space. If they can just cure their headache - if they experience that much of their inner space and the power of their inner space, their greed for power will disappear. They will stop giving headache to others! But I am telling you the truth! That is why, in Bharat, people who are going to become power-centers are first trained to experience the power of their inner space.

If you see the life of Shivaji, if you read authentically, you will see there is no perverted power hunger in Shivaji. That is why Aurangzeb felt so powerless just by remembering Shivaji! Shivaji was so powerful even in front of the whole Moghul Kingdom! As a single man, Shivaji protected the whole South Bharat and South Hindu temples! Nobody was able to cross him and come to South Bharat! Whenever I see the temple in my native place, Arunachala, that temple is so beautiful, you will not see a single damage! Whenever I see that temple, I feel grateful to Shivaji. His inner space was so powerful, he reclaimed his inner space! That is why he was not hungry towards perverted powers.

The essence of today's satsang is this. Be aggressive and reclaim your space, your possibility in time, mind, body and your responsibilities. Whatever is yours, just reclaim them. Let your space be yours. Let your space be yours! Let nobody else, no other force, nothing else have incursion over it. If you are a man, you will not allow somebody else to interfere in your life. If you are a living being, do not allow some other patterns, somebody else to get into your inner space. 'Reclaiming Your Space' is the essence of today's satsang!

I bless you all to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM! Thank you!

When you reclaim your inner space, you will not feel hungry towards perverted powers.

Only with completion do you become one integrated being , all your inner space, body, mind - everything comes under your contro. When you do completion now, don't think that only your future will be in completion and complete. No! Even your past gets altered! Completion is the only method where you can even alter your past!

I discovered some of the very important truths about completion, just this morning. I will expand on it.

The first thing I want you to understand is that the four tattvas work only in 'completion'. Only in 'completion' are you able to live the four tattvas as it should be lived. Please understand, only in 'completion' the four tattvas happen in you, as it should happen. It does not happen when you do not spend enough of time, energy and intention towards the completion. You need to understand that intention is important ingredient for completion.

Let me define 'completion'. You need to understand incompletion first; then you will understand what completion is.

Listen! Whenever you talk to yourself, there is a part of you that is constantly disrupting you - that is incompletion! It means the not

believing part! Understand? You say, 'I will live the four tattvas!' Immediately, one part of you laughs at you, 'you have said a millions of things like this!' You say, 'I will be successful!' It says, 'You tried so many things! What happened?' Understand, when you utter something, when you talk something to yourself, the part of you which does not believe you, the part of you which does not agree with you, the part of you which is not saying 'Yes' to you, is incompletion.

Listen! One of the biggest problems with this incompletion is that you will not be able to settle, with you. You will not be able to live, within you. You will constantly have a kind of a life imprisonment experience and because of that incompletion, you will not be able to live any tattva. You will neither be able to live integrity nor be able to live authenticity. You will neither be able to live responsibility or nor be able to live enriching.

See, incompletion first attacks your self-assessing mechanism. You have a self-assessing mechanism in you. Just like internal auditing for any organization, there is a self-assessing mechanism in you. Once in a while, you see, 'What am I doing? What am I doing? What is going on? Am I on the right direction? Will I be on the right direction? Is this okay?' The more number of times you do self-assessing, more you will be self-centered and self-torturing. It is incompletion which gives you the insecurity, makes you do self-assessing again and again. Tattvas as it should be lived when you don't spend enough time, energy, intention towards completion. Intention is an important ingredient for completion.

Please understand, only with completion inside, you can even listen at this moment. If your clothes are unwashed and lying in your room, if you have put some clothes in your laundry machine, if you have

kept milk on the oven, if it's boiling, if there are any incompletion around you, you will not be settled, you will not listen! Listening happens with completion. Listening happens with 'completion'!

There is one more thing you need to know. I explained how the space of incompletion will be, but I cannot explain how the 'inner space of completion' will be! The space of completion - how will it look? How will it feel? I cannot explain this because you will not understand any word I use. It will be 'shuddha sukhabodha chinmaya swabhavananda! What did you understand? No! You can't!

I can explain and you can understand what incompletion is, because it is your experience. When you are in the space of incompletion, a part of you will laugh at any decision you make, laugh at you, not co-operate with you, not say 'tathaasthu' to you, not listen to you and not involve itself with you!

Understand, in the state of incompletion, you don't listen! You act like you're listening, but you don't listen! You don't see! You act like you're seeing, but you don't see! It is very important. Humanbeings need to understand that with incompletion, you will neither be able to practice the four tattvas nor will the four tattvas bring the desired results in you. If there is incompletion, you cannot practice integrity with integrity.

Listening happens only with completion.

Listen! Only when you practice integrity with integrity, will you have vak-siddhi! Only when you practice authenticity with authenticity, will you have the space of possibility! Only when you become responsibly responsible will you become a Leader!

The first thing you need to bring completion in you. You need to bring completion in you to start the four tattvas to work on you, to bring the result in you. After initiation into these tattvas, spend the first six months just for completion – svapoornatva and poornatva, completion with others, by not disturbing or sacrificing your regular life. I have seen that people don't work and or fulfill their responsibility, in the name of completion. They just waste their time and energy! Understand, completion has to be done along with your intense, active routine! It is like you should continue to build the new building and demolish the old building. If you are trying to demolish the old one and not build, that gap will again be filled with incompletion!

When there is completion in you, the four tattvas act like a fire put on the blasting explosive material! If you put fire on explosive material, is it going to slowly catch the fire, then a little smoke, and then a little fire? Is it going to happen? It will just explode! There are some people - the moment they listen to the four tattvas, it will become an experience in them. They will start living it. There are some - the four tattvas work on them very slowly! Why do the four tattvas work like explosive material in some people? Why do the four tattvas work like fire put on wood and sometimes fire put on stone, for some people? Sometime, it's like a fire put on wet land, the fire gets put off ! The four tattvas disappear!

svapoornatva and poornatva should be your spiritual practice. svapoornatva and poornatva should be your spiritual practice! Completion, completion is an important lesson you need to learn, to make these four tattvas as

an experience. Listen! If you are in completion, you will not be in restlessness during the gaps I give. By giving the gaps, I find out whether people are in completion or incompletion; what is the level of the space they are in. Then I start my satsang. Then I continue what I want to offer.

Understand, this is a very important truth which you need to catch. There are some more things that I want you to know about completion. It is only after completion, complete completion inside, that you will be able to practice these four tattvas as reality. If I am asked to pick up one more tattva along with the four, I will pick up completion. It is that important! Without completion, the four tattvas never become reality. Understand, it is completion that makes the right things happen in you. It is completion that makes life happen in you!

Completion is Shiva. Listening is Devi. When you are in completion, you are established in Shiva, the masculine energy in you. If you are listening, you are established in Devi, the feminine energy in you. When you are in completion, Shiva will be available to you as Dakshinamoorthy. When there is incompletion, he will be in you as Kalabhairava, to destroy the incompletions. Only with completion do you become one integrated being, all your inner space, body, mind, everything comes under your control, everything comes under you, becomes you and is a part of you.

Completion is Shiva. Listening is Devi.

Another thing you need to know is that when you do completion now, don't think that only your future will be in completion and complete. No! Even your past gets altered! Even your past becomes complete! Completion is the only method where you can even alter your past! Human beings are made to believe that the past cannot be altered. You need to know that if the past cannot be altered, the future also cannot be altered! Past, present and future, all three are in the same DNA seed of Kaala! Listen! If Kaala is the seed, past, present and future, all these three are in that seed, in the form of DNA! Your attitude towards the past and your attitude towards the future will be same! If you think that you are powerless, you were powerless in your past and you will be powerless in your future also! If you are powerless in the past, you will be powerless in the future!

So, spend time on completion, spend energy on completion on mainly the intention for completion! Decide to be complete! Decide to be complete! More than spending time, it is your intention, your decision that keeps you in completion. The decision to be in completion keeps you in completion!

Understand, if you feel that you were powerful in the past, you will be powerful in the future. I will give you one small example from my own life, from my own experience. I always felt that I was complete and successful, that I was powerful in the past. So the future automatically prepares me. The future automatically reveals whatever I need to know. The future automatically teaches me whatever I need to know.

All I want you to understand is that any inability you perceive is because of the inabilities you perceive about you, in your past. The selfassessing mechanism, the mechanism which assesses you continuously will give you high rating only when you are in completion. When you

are not in completion, there is no way you will have a high rating about you! Even if you are doing spiritual practices for twenty five years, you will not have a high rating about you! How many of you want high rating given to you when you assess yourself? Raise your hand. Because this is the biggest suffering with which you are suffering! It is the low rating of yourself when you assess you!

In complete completion, the self-assessing mechanism will disappear! You won't even assess you! I don't assess me. Whether it is in your business, your relationships, your political career or even in your health, you can be successful only when you are in completion. You experience health when you are in completion. You experience wealth when you are in completion.

Decide to be in completion! Decide to be in completion! Decide to be in completion! When you are in completion, all the four tattvas work miracles in you! If I have to describe the life of completion, the only words I can use are 'eternal ecstasy' and 'joy'! There are no other words that can be used! When you are in completion, you experience ultimate health.

Listen! Your inner space experiences the past and the future in the same language, in the same way. I will tell you how your past is built. Incidents,

If you feel that you were powerful in the past, you will be powerful in the future.

your perceptions and your self-assessments are the pillars with which your past is built. If you complete yourself now, if you complete your perception and self-assessments, sixty six percent of your past will be burnt! Then can your past stand as it is now? No! It will just be with facts. So, your past will lose its power over you. Your past will be transformed. That is the way your future will be transformed!

You need to catch it! You need to understand it! You need to live it! Go on completing with everyone and with you, through the proper techniques. Whatever you can't complete typically, complete it through a catharsis processes. Completion can be done by three ways

• G One self completion, sitting with a mirror.
• G Second sitting with the person with whom you have incompletion, talking to them and completing it.
• G Third and very important through catharsis methods!

Sometimes, you don't even know with whom you have incompletion. You will not be able to find why you have incompletion. Is it with you or with others? Do completion through catharsis.

Completion - completion is the base for life to be built. Completion is the base on which life can stand. The first thing required for completion, is the decision to be complete, the intention to be in completion. When you are in completion, only then do you start living. The decision to be complete is the most important thing you need.

Understand, tomorrow I will expand on root-thought-patterns of suffering and how you can experience deep completion by discovering your root-thought patterns. The subject for tomorrow's Nithya satsang

will be 'your root-thought patterns and discovering your root-thought-patterns'. The root-thoughtpattern is the source of your every response to life. That is the source of your every response to life.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

The first thing required for completion, is the decision to be complete, the intention to be in completion.

Listen! Look in! Unless you find the root thought pattern and complete with it, your independent life does not start. Your root thought pattern is living through you. Sometimes you even enjoy it; because with the flow of sufferings and pain you feel there is a challenge in life!

Today, I will expand on root thought patterns and completion.

Please understand, all of you need to know why you behave the way you behave, why you act the way you do and why you do what you do. You may be a doctor, an engineer, in a corporate field, a politician, in the field of finance or religion - whatever you may be, whether you act with softness, peace, agitation or irritation, it is your root thought pattern that is responsible for the way you react, the way you function.

Let me define root thought pattern. The first strong cognition you go through in your life, which influences you to continue to function based on the same cognition, is a root thought pattern!

Understand this. For example, at the age of three or four, for some reason, somebody tries to attack you. Shivering and frightened, you run and hide yourself. The cognition was so deep in you that your whole inner space was filled with fear for few minutes. All other cognitions –

the possibility is shut down and this one cognition just fills you for a few moments. Even after that person has gone, you are still shivering in your hiding place.

Please understand, if you had this kind of experience at that young age, you literally never come out of your hiding place after that! You may physically come out, but the suffering and shivering continue to happen! The shivering and the suffering continue to happen! They continue to be in you! Even at the age of ninety five, you will be shivering just like the three-year-old boy, with the fear inside you!

Once some root thought pattern starts in you, your growth stops! After that, only that pattern grows in you, not you! Listen! Only the pattern grows, not you! If you had chosen to attack him back with whatever you got in your hand, then that also will be a pattern!

Listen! Listen now, only if you listen intensely can you get this truth! Non- listening is not going to help. Listen! How you behave, how you feel, how you respond – it means the cognition which happens in you and fills you at a very young age, and overpowers you. Sometimes it is fear, sometimes it is greed, sometimes it is jealousy and sometimes it is the decision to prove yourself. Sometimes, it is just blocked out, being blocked out with confusion and worry!

The first thing you need to know is that your life as a human being starts only when you find your root thought pattern and complete with it! Otherwise, you go on cheating yourself most of the time!

One of the worst things is that the root thought pattern becomes so much a part of you that you don't even realize that the root thought pattern and you are two different things! You just listen to your root thought

pattern and behave as if the decision is your own. It is like a traitor becoming the Prime Minister of a country or the President of a country, some traitor becoming the power-center of that country! What will happen to that country? In the same way, root thought pattern is your traitor. It means that it is your enemy! If your enemy becomes part of your decision-making mechanism, your life will be destroyed!

Listen! Look in! Unless you find your root thought pattern and complete with it, your independent life does not start. Your root thought pattern is living through you. I have seen people getting completely imbalanced for a very small thing that they don't find – for example if they don't find where their cigarette lighter is! Just a gross stop and they fall! They are totally disoriented and imbalanced! They do not know why!

Just like you have the flow of air and the flow of blood as part of you, in course of time, this flow of pain and suffering also becomes a part of you. Sometimes you even enjoy it, because with the flow of sufferings and pain, you feel that there is a challenge in life! Even though you don't have anything really worthy to show that you are a success, you create pseudo-pain and pseudochallenges to show that your life is worthy and you are great! Most of the time, you create and brag on with pseudo-challenges, pseudo-pains, pseudo-

Once some root thought pattern starts in you, your growth stops.

sufferings, just to justify to yourself that your existence is worthy.

You say, 'See! Being a person of my background with so much of suffering and pain, I have finally become an MLA!'

You go on; you go on creating pseudo-sufferings, pain patterns and unsettled decisions. See, just taking powerful decisions and destabilizing yourself becomes almost a new kind of excitement and adventure for you. Not being stable almost becomes an adventure for you. Come back! Don't be foolish! At the end of the life, you are going to be measured based on the success, not based on the adventure!

Most of the time, you yourself create foolish obstacles, you struggle with it and name that as an adventure! To take a decision whether to wear the watch on the left hand or right hand, if you sit and brood for twenty-one days and then finally wear it on your hip and go, it is not an adventure! You are a fool who wasted twenty-one days to make this simple decision! But you come out and show, 'See, see, see! To wear this watch here, I took twenty-one days!' In what way is it going to be useful?

Understand, your life should be measured only based on the level of enriching you did! That is the scale with which your life is going to be measured, not based on the struggles you had in your life! All the great leaders' biographies should be re-written for the next generation! At least my Gurukul kids - you will not read the idiotic, perverted biographies of the so-called many leaders, whose life is described with so much of conflict, struggles and finally, adventure. No! A person can be considered as a great leader only based on how many people he enriched, and in what ways he enriched. That's all!

There are some foolish games where the horses are made to jump many obstacles. The more obstacles the horse jumps, it is considered as a victory! But what is the use? What are horses for? To cross the distance! It should be used for crossing the distance! I tell you, making your life look adventurous is nothing but too much of fat that you collected in some unnecessary spots of your body! It is not real an energy expression. The real energy expression is supposed to be based on how many people you enriched!

Your root thought patterns continuously swallow your life! Listen, when your root thought patterns are responding through you, your cognition is called 'maya' – 'delusion'. Find your root thought pattern, where your main behavioral pattern started and where your main cognition occupied your inner space.

I have seen, sometimes people want name and fame, but they don't want to take the responsibility for other human beings. Please understand, only when you take responsibility of training and helping other human beings, you will have name and fame. Why will somebody praise you? Only if you contribute to their life! Some people desire to have name and fame, but they will not take the responsibility of enriching or contributing to others life. They go on desiring, but don't take responsibility.

When your root thought patterns are responding through you, your cognition is called 'maya' – 'delusion'.

Please understand, the gap between your desire and responsibility is your inauthenticity. Bring more and more authenticity. Bring more and more authenticity. Take more and more responsibility. I tell you, until you find your root thought pattern and complete with it, your life has not started!

People sometimes ask me, 'What do you give during Inner Awakening?' I tell you, I give you life. I give your 'life' to you in Inner Awakening!

Sometimes, not just sometimes but, many times, the plants cover the whole pond and tank. People don't even know whether the water is there or not in the pond, and whether the water can be used. The water plants completely cover the whole water body so thickly that you neither know if there is water, nor do you know if you can use it.

In the same way, the sufferings created by the root thought patterns fill you, fill you so strongly, so powerfully, they fill you so strongly and so powerfully that you lose life! You don't have life anymore! Only when you clear those water plants, will you know how much water is there. Only when you clear root thought patterns and the patterns you built because of the root thought patterns, you will know the consciousness you have! The consciousness you have! Only when you have found your root thought pattern and removed it and regained your consciousness, you will understand, 'Oh, God! I have literally wasted my whole life!'

I tell you, even what you call as your basic instinct - like the lust pattern are all nothing but combination of few root thought patterns! Lust is not at all lust! If you go deep, there will be some other root thought pattern which is drilling your lust, rekindling it again and again. It may be the power to prove you! And the root thought pattern of asking for others attention!

Only when you clear your root thought pattern, you will even know, you will even know your life! You will even know your consciousness!

How many of you cognize that only after removing and completing with the root thought pattern, you understood how many years you wasted in your life? This is the example. Only when your root thought patterns are cleared, you will know what life is, what freedom is. Until then, you don't even know life! Your effort to make money, your effort to have relationships, your effort to have fulfillment, everything will be out of the incompletion. Incompletion will be driving you. Your root thought pattern will be driving you.

If your enemy is driving you, will he be driving you towards success? He may make you believe that you are going towards success, but he will never ever lead you to success. If your root thought patterns are driving your life, you may believe that you are successful, but you will never be driven to success. Understand, if you are running behind alcohol, if you are using alcohol for joy and relaxation and restful awareness and feeling fulfilled, I bet, even if you have a billion dollars, you are a failure! I sympathize with you! Your life is waste!

Understand. For example, if you have a root thought pattern of fear or shivering in you, even if you make billions of dollars out of that root

In the 'Inner– Awakening' program, I give your 'life' to you.

thought pattern, you will not achieve satisfaction. Because the reason why you are making money is to feel secured. You will feel secured only when you break that pattern, not by money! It is like a wrong strategy. Wrong strategy, for the wrong reason!

In Bharat, hooliganism is the most practiced religion! These hooligans, when they get angry, they make an effigy of the person towards whom they are angry and burn it. Is it in any way going to affect the guy towards whom you have anger? Instead, you can collect all the dust in the street and burn it. At least the street will be clean! Just like that, even if you make billions of dollars, you are not going to achieve satisfaction if the driving force is the incompletion, if the root thought pattern is fear.

Whether it is lust, anger, agitation or irritation, whatever it may be, please understand, all the moments you feel powerless in your life is because of your root thought pattern. A person who does not have even one moment of powerlessness in his life is an enlightened being! A person who never had powerlessness in his life, from birth, is an incarnation!

Understand anything is worth giving up. To find your root thought pattern and complete it, you can give up anything. It is worth it. Because once you complete with your root thought pattern, you will feel so much of energy and powerfulness! There won't be a single moment of powerlessness! Whether it is in your house or job or relationships or life, if you feel powerless somewhere, please understand, it is because of the root thought patterns you carry. If you feel powerless somewhere, it is because of the root thought patterns you are carrying.

Every human being should be helped to find their root thought pattern

and the incident where the root thought pattern started occupying their inner space and destroying it, perverting their inner space and killing their life, swallowing their life. Every human being should find that root thought pattern and complete with it.

Understand, I am defining 'root-thought-pattern' once more. The feeling of powerlessness overpowering your cognition and imbalancing your cognition from your consciousness, and the birth of the mind happening, is 'root thought pattern'.

It is the root thought pattern incident where the birth of your mind happens. And, I tell you, if you consider me as your Guru, whoever considers themselves as my followers, your first responsibility is in finding your root thought pattern and completing it, living these four principles of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, helping whoever you meet, enriching them by helping them to find their root thought pattern.

All my disciples should help every individual. It does not need to be a formal class. If you are waiting to make a formal class, you will be waiting forever! Later on, when time comes, I will organize it as formal classes and programs. Now, start helping whoever you meet, guiding them to find their root thought pattern.

A person who does not have even one moment of powerlessness in his life is an enlightened being.

Understand, every moment of powerlessness that you are feeling in your life is your root thought pattern living; it is not you living! Then understand, your life is literally swallowed by your root thought pattern! Your life is literally swallowed by your root thought pattern! You have to find your root thought pattern and help people find their root thought patterns. This is real enriching!

Understand, in the 'Inner–Awakening' program, I give you your life, because we help you to find your root thought pattern and destroy it!

The feeling of powerlessness overpowering your cognition and imbalancing your consciousness and being, the cause of the birth of your mind, is 'root- pattern'.

Understand, without completing your root thought pattern, your DNA layers are not awakened, mitochondria cell energy is not awakened. Once you discover your root thought pattern and you complete with it, your kundalini is immediately awakened, your mitochondria cell energy goes up, your DNA level, DNA awakening, DNA layer awakening drastically increases!

For common human beings, for normal human beings, two layers of DNA are awakened. If you find your root thought pattern and complete, six layers of DNA will be awakened in you! If six layers of DNA are awakened, your child will be an enlightened being! You will have an enlightened child! Even if you marry, you will enrich the world by your enlightened child! Even through marriage, you will be enriching the world!

If you have not found your root thought pattern and completed with it, even with sannyas you will only be a headache to the world! You will not be enriching the world, you will just be encroaching the world!

Either you encroach or enrich. If you don't enrich, you encroach! If you find your root thought pattern and complete it, even with marriage you can enrich the world! If not, you will be encroaching the world! Enriching or encroaching, it is up to you! It is up to you!

So, the essence of today's satsang is this. Find your root thought pattern and complete it. Only then, life starts for you!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Every moment of powerlessness that you feel in your life is your root thought pattern living, not you living.

Please understand, when you first had the feeling of powerlessness, you never grew once the root pattern started! You physically grow, but mentally, you are sealed! If you mentally grow, your physical age will be sealed and you will be young forever! You will be growing young!

I will expand on how you can identify your root pattern. Please understand, I will remind all of you once more - only when you give your listening, I can help you. Any transmission of knowledge, energy or experience happens between us only when you give listening!

Even Vedic rishis start with this chant:

shrunvantu vishwe amritasya putraaha | Oh! Sons of Immortality, please listen to me!

shrunvantu vishwe amritasya putaraaha | vedaarameham purusham mahaantham || Oh! Sons of Immortality, listen to me!

Identify your root pattern! Listen! I am defining 'root pattern' once more. The first attack of any strong emotion happening in you and imbalancing your whole cognition, giving birth to your mind - the pattern you develop

Please understand, it can be anything, from something as simple as your mother did not give you the cake and gave it to your brother!

In Bharat, that is a big problem! Male kids are pampered and female kids are not supported. This is one of the biggest patterns with which the whole of Bharat suffers. You need to know - in Bharat, the practice of not giving a share in the property to women is still practiced! This has to be abolished. Women should be given equal rights over the properties and you can also use mother's name as an initial with your name. All this should happen. Only then are we going to come out of this mental cognition. We forgot that in the Vedic tradition, men and women had equal respect. We need to understand, we need to evolve as a society and give an equal right in name and property.

Root pattern is the pattern which you develop, at the time when powerlessness takes you over for the first time in your life. And your cognition is imbalanced and your mind is born! It may be as simple as your mother making you sit on the dining table so that you will not run around and make a mess; your brother chasing you into a room and trying to beat you; or you tried your best but failed in your exam or some competition. It can be even that small! But that is the root on which the mind is born.

Understand, if you sit with yourself even for half-an-hour and think through, dig out, you will be able to find your root pattern. The only thing is that whatever you think through, continue to speak in front of the mirror. Without speaking, your thinking will not have its clarity, depth and strength. To find your root pattern, you may have to speak; you may have to speak in front of the mirror.

Sit comfortably in front of the mirror. Whatever you think as your root pattern - it may be at the age of three or four, when powerlessness overpowered you for the first time in your life, or the earliest memory you remember. It would have happened sometime when you were three or four, but you may only remember the incident which happened when you were seven or eight.

But whatever you remember, start talking, talking and talking out! When you start talking, you will understand - please understand - you will understand, and you may suddenly remember the deeper root pattern which started much earlier, the incidents which happened much earlier!

I have seen that there are some people who suffer the disease of spontaneous lying. The moment they open their mouth, lying, lying, lying! I tell you, spontaneous lying means you feel powerlessness. You are inauthentic to yourself. Feeling powerlessness is slavery. Feeling powerful is freedom. If you feel powerful throughout your day, you are a jeevan mukta! You are living enlightenment! If you feel powerful, from when you wake up in the morning to the moment you fall asleep, you are a jeevan mukta!

Everything has roots. The way you behave, the way you think, the way you react, the way you respond, way you cognize, why you behave the

Feeling powerlessness is slavery. Feeling powerful is freedom.

way you behave - everything has a root pattern!

Understand, whether you feel unhealthy, or helpless, or emotionally weak, tired, bored, lazy, agitated or irritated, all these put together is what I classify as powerlessness; feeling powerless. The good news is that you can live without any of these. The bad news is that you need to work for it!

I tell you, if the kids can be helped during the young age to remove their root patterns and not to build root patterns, they will do wonders! I have seen! I have seen! Whatever I am doing in 'Inner Awakening', ten times more than that happens in eN-Genius (spiritual program for kids), without my physical presence, because they are ready to receive it! Kids are ready to receive!

I still remember, as a small boy, I was going around the hill alone, reading the Arunagiri Andaadi - hundred songs on Arunachala written by Guhai Namashivaya, a great saint. Even now I can repeat all the hundred verses by heart! I was walking with that book! I was asked to go round the hill every day, by my 'heartless' Guru, Kuppammal, Vibhoodanandadevi!

I was supposed to go around it at night, because I didn't have time in the day. During the day I either went to school or sat with her studying the vedas and upanishads! And usually, it will be very hot in the day time. So after sunset, she would tell me, 'Now lessons are over. Please go round the hill and come back and sleep! She used to say it as though it was just next door.

If I go round the hill, when will I sleep? Because, by the time I come back, I have to take bath in the tank and go to the temple for suprabhaatham!

When Shiva is waking up, when the lord is waking up, when Arunachala is waking up, you should go and see him early in the morning when he wakes up! So, I would have to run!

Anyway, I went around every day. And I keep that as a habit even now! Even now, if I am staying in Arunachala, I will go around the hill. Only then will I come and sleep. Even now, whenever I can, I don't miss walking around the hill. I will always walk in the night, with a group of disciples, and that will be the best moment of my life. The way I run! You can see the high energy around me!

One night when I was a child, some ten hyenas came. A hyena is an animal which is very shy when alone, but will attack and kill any human-being if they are in groups. And they will simply kill children, they will simply kill! Children are the best dinner for them! They will kill!

I was walking alone. It was amavasya (new moon day) or just near amavasya. No light and complete darkness! In those days, the path for going around the Arunachala Hill was very dark and it was a narrow road - not even a road, it was more like a forest road. Suddenly, some ten hyenas were standing in front of me! In the middle of the night, I am all alone with just that one book 'Songs of Arunachala' in my hand!! From the lower abdomen – the swadhishtana, I gave a voice,

You can live without powerlessness in your life.

'ARUNACHALAAAAAAA!!' I don't know if the whole Arunachala Hill vibrated with that! Suddenly, an old man appeared with a stick and drove the hyenas away! They all ran away. Somehow I got saved. Otherwise I would not be here! I would not be sitting here. I would have been sitting in their stomach within the next few hours! Anyhow, I came back and narrated the whole story to my Guru, Vibhoodanandapuri, with the deep feeling that from the next day I wouldn't be asked to go walking around the hill. She heard everything, and finally all she said was, 'Wow! Arunachala saved you!'

There is no doubt that Arunachala saved me. But Arunachala may come and save me once, how can that be a routine? But next day, she said, 'Come on! Go around the hill!' I was shocked! I asked, 'What do you mean? Will Arunachala come and save me every day?' She just hit at me with one question, 'Will hyenas attack you every day?' Listen! I asked her, 'Will Arunachala come and save me every day?' She said, 'Will hyenas come and attack you every day?' That's it! When I told about this incident to my mother, who is always over-protective of me, she heard the whole thing and finally asked me, 'What did paatti tell?' paatti means my Guru, Vibhoodanandapuri. 'What did she tell?' I told her what she said. Then she just walked into the house and said, 'Alright, you go the walking around the hill!' She just walked into the house and said, 'You go now!'

I am telling you, it really hit me! Yes, will hyenas come and attack me every day? Then she said, 'If hyenas come every day, then Arunachala also will come every day! Go! I tell you, I am seeing this even now in my life. Whenever hyenas come, Arunachala comes and protects me! It may be ten hyenas or twelve hyenas or six-hundred hyenas! Arunachala comes and protects! Had I not gone for my walk around the hill - giri pradhakshina, the next day, I would have continued to be a

human being with one divine experience. Because I decided to go, I am now a divine being, with one human experience of screaming! Had I not gone the next day, I would have been a human-being with one divine experience of Arunachala coming and protecting me. But because I went, I am now a divine being having only one human experience of screaming in fear! Nowadays I don't even need to scream and call Arunachala. Even before the hyenas come near, he is there, drives them out and destroys the hyenas! He takes care of any problem that comes in the form of hyenas! He protects me! He drives them out! Do not allow root-patterns to get rooted in you. Look into the root patterns, of why you behave how you behave. Everything in Existence has a root. Everything you do has a reason, a root!

God and Adam were walking through the Garden of the Eden, discussing various things. At one point, Adam exclaims, 'God, you have done a great job making Eve so beautiful! Amazing! She is really beautiful!' Then God says, 'Yes, my son, I made her beautiful so you would love her very, very deeply.' After some time, I think Adam felt he had praised her too much. Man will usually give one 'but' if he feels he has praised you too much! After sometime Adam also gives his 'but'. 'But, Lord, you have not made her too smart! You have made her dumb!' God said, 'Yes, I made her dumb, so that she would love you very, very deeply!'

Do not allow root-patterns to get rooted in you.

Of course there is a root; there is a reason for every happening in existence. Find out the root of your happening. When you find your root pattern and complete with it, you will understand your prarabdha. Now, I will give you the exact technique of finding your root pattern. It will be great if you have the assistance of a teacher. I have trained and am training thousands of teachers and sannyasis. The teacher himself should have found their root pattern and completed with it. If you have such a person helping you, then nothing like it!

I also have good news for you; I am coming up with a ten-day program which aims at helping you find the root-thought-pattern and complete with it. By re-living it, when you narrate it, you may remember some other earlier incident. Then narrate that earlier incident that you remembered. Go deep, deep, the earliest incident you remember when you felt powerless in your life. Narrate that by completely reliving it at least ten times. You will find out, you will catch the exact words which are forming the root pattern in you!

I am giving you the precise technique.

Sit in front of the mirror. Remember the earliest memory of you feeling 'powerless', and repeat the incident remembering every word you uttered towards yourself, every thought you had towards yourself. If you have a person who has found his root- pattern and completed, his moola samskaara and completed it, he will be able to guide you with the exact root pattern you are suffering from. The right technical word for root pattern in Sanskrit is 'moola vaasana'.

Please understand, when you started having the root pattern, when you first had the feeling of powerlessness, you never grew once the root pattern started! Your age was mentally sealed! You physically grow, but mentally, you are sealed! If you mentally grow, your physical age will

be sealed! It means that you will be young forever! If your mind goes on expanding, getting matured, ripened and feeling powerful, your body will be young. You will be growing young.

Look into every moment that you feel powerless in your life, even now. Don't try to escape from those moments! No! Don't try to escape from those moments! You can never escape! You can never escape! The moment your root pattern is born, your life is destroyed! Your growth is stopped! Only when you complete with your root pattern will you come back to life again.

Understand. When you complete with your root pattern in life, 'life' starts happening in you. Until you understand your root pattern and complete with it, you can't be peaceful anywhere in the world!

Disciple asked the Master, 'Master, you are a great, powerful, enlightened being. Why don't you just take me to the plane of perfect peace, like Kailash.' The Master replies to the disciple, 'If I take you to Kailash, it will no longer be peaceful!'

Unless your root-patterns are completed, you will corrupt, pollute and disturb even Kailash! If your root-patterns are complete, you will be peaceful wherever you are.

There is a reason for every happening in existence. Find out the root of your happening.

Listen! If you are in the corporate field, a CEO or you are in the Human Resource Management field, the HR field, if you are a decision-maker or the head of a team in a temple, ashram, corporate companies, in your business, in your job, I tell you - please help yourself find the root pattern and complete. Help others in your team, in your company, in your school, in your institution, in your organization. Help them find their root pattern and complete.

I tell you with integrity and authenticity, once I helped my ashramites, my swamis find their root pattern and complete, Dhyanapeetam has become three times more productive! Of course, I want them to become three-hundred times more productive! That is different! That is my root pattern! That is different as it is out of completion! But, I tell you, they have become at least three times more productive!

So, if you are a decision-maker or having workers under you, head of an institution, school, college, temple, ashram, organization, company or industry, I just simply request you to find your root pattern and complete! Help all the people around you to find their root pattern and complete. I guarantee you; the productivity will become three times more! The productivity will become three times more!

You will become productive! Your team will be productive. Because when you get out of the root pattern, you will be out of the 'begging mentality' towards life. You may beg forever and ever but you can never become a millionaire by begging. You may beg for twenty-five years.

It may look like easy money. But you will never be a millionaire until the end. If you work with the 'beggar mentality' you will never be successful until the end.

At the entrance of a temple, a beggar was always stretching out his one hand asking for alms, begging. One day, people suddenly saw that both hands were stretched out, stretching and begging! They asked him, 'What happened? Today, you have suddenly stretched both your hands! Until now you were stretching only one hand! Why are you stretching both your hands now?' He said, 'I have started one more branch!'

You may have any number of branches. But you will never become a millionaire by begging! In the same way, if you are working with a begging mentality, you will never be complete! You will never be complete! If you help somebody find the root pattern and complete, the first thing you will have is an integrated human-being. He will not cheat you. She will not cheat you. Especially in the schools, industries and corporate offices, where so much of cheating goes on at the subordinate levels, at the lower layers. If you can help your subordinates find the root pattern and complete with it, you will have authentic, integrated subordinates. It means that you will have heaven!

The children had all lined up in a cafeteria in a school, for lunch. At the head of the table, there was a large pile of apples, and the Headmaster had posted a note on the apple tray saying, 'Take only one. God is watching!' Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end

If you work with the 'beggar mentality' you will never be successful until the end.

of the table, was a large pile of chocolate cookies. On the chocolate cookies one child had put a small note, 'Take as much as you want, because God is watching the apples!'

No! It is not going to help you, if you have this kind of people around you. If somebody completes with their root pattern, the first thing that will happen to them is integrity and authenticity. You will have beautiful beings around you; beautiful beings around you! You do not know the joy of having integrated and authentic people around you. So, the first thing is to find your root-thought-pattern. Help others find their root pattern and complete with it. Complete with it.

Understand, the lack of integrity and authenticity will not work in your life. When you are inauthentic, you forget things. When you are not listening, you forget things. When you help people to complete their root pattern, you will have authentic and integrated beings. You will be successful. Your mission will be successful. Your job will be successful. Everything - everything will be successful!

The essence of today's satsang is this. Find your root pattern and complete with it!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Memories which stay in you and make you continuously respond in the same pattern unconsciously, again and again, is bio-memory. If you learn the essence of the lessons you need to catch from the bio-memory, and live spontaneously based on that essence, it becomes 'bio-energy'.

Today, I will expand on how you can complete with root-patterns. I will give you the exact procedure of completion.

Before giving you the complete procedure, I want you to know a few technical details and meanings for a few technical terms.

Bio-energy and Bio-memory! Please understand, if you have certain pattern in you as a compulsive disorder, it is bio-memory. It is just dead memory. If you get frightened, you will run away. If you have some thoughts or doubts that a person doesn't respect you or that person doesn't love you, that person doesn't care for you, all other thoughts will immediately wake up, and you will be in depression.

Please understand, memories which stay in you and make you continuously respond unconsciously in the same pattern again and again, is bio-memory. If you learn the essence of the lessons you need to

catch from the bio-memory, and live spontaneously based on that essence, it becomes "bio-energy". Understand? For example, you see a snake and you know that you may die if the snake bites. This situation can become a bio-memory in you that even if you see the photograph of a snake, you may step back. I have seen people who don't even touch the body of a snake's photo on the TV screen or computer screen! Come on, tell me, how many of you will not touch the screen if there is a photography of the snake on the screen? This is bio-memory. See, I am not saying that you should not have bio-memory of snake fear. Go and catch the snake! No! If you learn just the intelligence from that incident, from that situation - you are clear that snake bite can lead to death, so you don't go near the snake, but you don't have the compulsive patterns related to snakes and snake fear. You only have the intelligence. Then, that same thing becomes bio-energy.

Understand, in every situation, if you catch biomemory, you will miss the bio-energy. If your bioenergy is expanding, your aura will be something like a few hundred feet! Your presence will be so heavy! If you are a resident of this ashram, you will know how the campus feels the moment I am out of this campus and how it feels the moment I enter the campus. I may be just sitting in the room, not even coming down! But just the understanding that Swami is in the campus, the campus feels!

If you catch biomemory, you will miss the bio-energy.

When your bio-energy becomes strong, your aura becomes so powerful and so strong, the whole city, the whole area will feel your presence!

If you function on just bio-memories, you are a bound soul. You are a baddha jeeva, entangled soul! Living in bondage! Not only that, when you are living here, you also accumulate more and more musclememory. All the patterns you accumulate and continue to accumulate are muscle-memory. The confusion between muscle-memory and biomemory is a confused memory! Confusion between bio-memory and muscle-memory is confused memory!

So for every act, you will not know the right reason; if you know the reason, you do not know how to act. It is a kind of a chaos.

On a Sunday school, the teacher asked the children, 'Why is it necessary to be silent and quiet in the church?' One bright little girl stood up and said, 'Because, people are asleep! We should not disturb others sleep!'

So, you do not know the reasons for the act you performed! Musclememory is the memory you accumulate in this janma (lifetime). Biomemory is the memory you bring from the past births. Even in this birth, the muscle-memory can become bio-memory. When you psychologically collapse, with whatever ideas you elevate yourself and stand up, those ideas will become bio-memory in you, even though you accumulated them in this body.

Understand, you learnt the four tattvas a few months ago. So it will only be muscle-memory. But for some reason, you psychologically collapsed - may be due to peer pressure, work pressure, stress, some internal fear or external fear, you collapsed. Now, if you stand up from that collapse using the four tattvas, then the four tattvas will now become your bio-

memory. It will not be muscle-memory any more. And when you apply these four tattvas again and again from the level of bio-memory, you will catch the gist of the four tattvas into your cognition; it will become bio-energy.

I will repeat. You learnt the four tattvas only a few months ago. Naturally it will only be in the level of muscle-memory. But psychologically for some reason you collapse - some depression, fear, anger, stress; your very cognition is imbalanced, you feel completely powerless, you don't know what you are talking; you don't know what you are thinking. After the collapse, if you raise yourself just by these four tattvas, the four tattvas will become your bio memory; because anything of the past janma (birth) will become bio memory in this janma. Psychologically collapsing and standing up again is equivalent to the next janma. That is why I create enough of opportunity for you to psychologically collapse so that you will stand up with four tattvas. No! Understand. Until the four tattvas become your bio- energy, I'll continue to expose your inauthenticity to you; all your inauthenticities to you and you will again and again collapse.

There are many people in society who maybe have one lakh lust patterns and many times, their patterns will not even raise their head. But if you are my disciple, even if you have three lust patterns, it will awaken three hundred times a

If you function on just biomemories, you are a bound soul.

day; because your inauthenticity needs to be exposed to you. You need to collapse until you become completely authentic. I don't use twenty two carat gold. I only want twenty four carat or twenty five carat gold. I don't allow 916 (measure for purity of gold). No! It has to be complete hundred percent. Understand!

Sometimes people ask me, 'Swamiji after becoming your disciple, I see lot of struggle inside my mind'. I tell them, I am doing it. I will not let you rest until you become completely authentic. Even one point inauthenticity cannot be tolerated. Understand, when you are in the body you have to do the job, you have to achieve it; whether you have urgency or not, if you have the urge, it is urgent for me. Whether getting enlightened is urgent for you or not, you getting enlightened is urgent for me. Understand, this is the way muscle memory becomes bio memory.

That is why when you collapse psychologically and stand up, you should build your inner space based on the four tattvas. If you live on the four tattvas as bio memory again and again, it means that even if you collapse again and again, you will stand up again and again solving your problems based on the four tattvas. So if you stand up again and again with four tattvas, then bio memory will become bio energy. It means that even before you think and take the decision, your cognition gives you the decision! Once these four tattvas become bio energy, you will see, you will simply live enlightenment. Once these four tattvas becomes bio memory, you will see miracles happening in you. Whatever clearance you are carrying, declaration you are carrying, it will become a reality.

Anything you declare will become reality if the four tattvas become your bio - memory. When it becomes your bio- energy, you just live

an enlightened life. You just live an enlightened life. For many of us these four tattvas are still only muscle memory. It has to become bio memory, only then will our declarations will become reality. Whatever bio memory you brought with you when you assumed this body is prarabdha, the muscle memory you are accumulating here is agamya and the collective bio memories is sanchita. If you come to planet earth only with bio energy, without biomemory, you are an incarnation. No bio memory, only bio- energy – then you are an incarnation!

Understand these four principles so that you can complete with all the root patterns.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Anything you declare will become reality if the four tattvas become your bio - memory.

You are nothing more than the words you utter. Declare that you are complete! Your declaration out of completion is the key stone holding your life as it is, miraculously!

Today I wanted to make this statement first. This is going to be the subject for the Nithya satsang today. Please listen.

With completion starts 'life'. Otherwise you are running out of compulsion. Either you run life in compulsion, or in completion. With completion, your life starts. With compulsion, not only don't you have any life, you also constantly reduce the level of your life.

I want you to know that human life is not happening in the same frequency for all on planet earth. How can you compare, between a man who is in ecstasy enjoying life, enriching himself and others in a monastery, and a man who is in prison, given up on himself and others and given up by the society, and a man who is the political power centre, suffering with so many patterns and suffocations – how can you say that all these people are in the same frequency? No! You need to get out of the myth – a very big myth taught to you – that human life

happens in same frequency. It's a lie! How many of you cognized what I said just now? Human life does not happen in the same frequency. Every individual's frequency differs.

When you are in completion, anything you declare becomes a reality! Anything you declare becomes a reality. Understand, if you see, they have a unique method of making arches out of stone in south Hindu temples. They will just arrange one stone on one stone, one stone on another stone. They will insert the center stone in such a way that just because of the pressure of the center stone, the whole arch will stand as it is. How many of you have seen these kind of arches? The arch will stand without collapsing.

I tell you, if your declaration is powerful, that is the center key stone that'll keep your life stand miraculously. I saw that arch for the first time, in Tiruvannamalai, in a Mutt called Ishanya Mutt. The arch is there in that mutt. When I saw that arch for the first time, I was shocked and thought that it's a miracle that it is standing. How can pieces of stone stand together? Then I understood. That key stone, because of its pressure, was holding the whole arch in shape. Your declaration out of completion is the key stone holding your life as it is, miraculously!

If miracles are happening in your life continuously, it is the declaration out of completion.

One man calls his son and says, 'You should get married.' Son says "No! No. I don't want to get married.' The man says, 'I will get you Bill Gates' daughter for a wife.' The son thinks and says, 'OK then, I will get married.' This man goes to Bill Gates and says, 'Give your daughter to my son.'

Bill Gates says, 'No! No way!' The man replies, 'No, he is the CEO of the world bank.' Then Bill Gates says, 'Ok then, I'll give.' The guy goes to the third meeting with the head of the World Bank and says, 'Give my son the CEO job of the world bank.' That guy says, 'No! No Way!' The man then replies, 'No, he is the son-in-law of Bill gates.'

That guy says, 'Ok then, I will give.'

Understand, the whole thing is standing with his declaration. He did it!

It may look like cheating. I don't think it is cheating. I very clearly see only the power of declaration in his words. I got this story from Facebook. But at the end, the moral of the story is – 'this is what business is.' When I read, I said, 'No! I don't see any business in it. I only see the power of declaration in it.'

A stone arch stands by the power of the center stone miraculously. Your life can stand miraculously by the power of your declaration, out of completion.

Many times, people ask me, 'How can I be complete just by declaring completion?'

You can! Because you are nothing but the words you utter. You are nothing but the bunch of the words

When you are in completion, anything you declare becomes a reality.

you uttered, consciously or unconsciously to yourself and to others. Unfortunately, most of it is unconscious. That is where the problem starts. You are nothing but the totality of bunch of words you uttered to yourself and others. Many times, you do not recognize the power of the words you utter. You especially do not recognize the power of the words you utter towards yourself. Have tremendous trust over the power of integrity. You always feel, 'I am integrated, but I still need to evolve.' Over! When you have these words in you, you will never be complete. You should know, 'If I am integrated now, if I declare completion now, I am complete. I am nothing but the words I utter. I am nothing but the words I utter, inside and outside.' The words you utter inside and outside is hundred percent you. It is not bad news. It is good news. Understand. Because, you can change now!

If you are thinking, 'Oh, if I am just a word, then I have done such a big mess, what can I do now?' If you are suffering with the past, it is bad news for you. If you can understand that you can change now; it is good news for you! You can change now! You can change now! Because if you can utter the word now and complete, 'I drop the past; it has no power over me,' you can be complete now! You might have uttered that you are incomplete a million times, in the past, to yourself. But by uttering that you are complete, just once in the present, you can finish off all your million declarations in the past. Because when time and space cross, the declarations you make are alive and powerful! Time and space always cross in the present moment. In any legal system, the latest order will be the order that will be executed. Even in your life, only your latest declaration will be executed. If you declare completion now, you are complete. You may say, 'No! No! Now, I am saying that I am complete, but I am not complete.' Then, you have already decided you don't want to be complete! Don't you see? Declare that you are complete! Roar like a lion and stand on completion! I tell you, you are nothing but the words

you utter. You are nothing more than the words you utter.

Understand, the first lesson you need to learn is the ability to trust the power of your integrity. If you say, 'I am free,' then, you are free! If you say, 'I am bound,' then, you are bound! If you say, 'I am a liar,' then, you are a liar! If you say, 'I am enriching,' then, you are enriching! It is just you! The words you utter to yourself and others is life! What a big relief ! It can be great news for you if you start living it. It can be good news for you if you start believing it. It can be bad news for you, if you start worrying about it. But the words you utter towards yourself and to others is you, you, you!

If you, again and again, utter the words, 'I am efficient, I am powerful,' then, you are that! If you, again and again, utter the words, 'No! I am powerless, I am inefficient,' then you are that!

The second truth you need to know is the power of your authenticity. Even if it looks like inauthenticity in the initial level, stand by it. It will rise and rise to the next-next levels of authenticity. When you are authentic towards your inauthenticity, it will lead to authenticity. Like, any number, any equation multiplied with zero, becomes zero. In the same way, however much your inauthenticity may be, if you are authentic towards your inauthenticity, you

You are nothing but the words you uttered, consciously or unconsciously, to yourself and to others.

will become authentic. Millions of years' inauthenticity has no face in front of one inch of your authenticity. Everyone has to die! The people who go to the Yama's house can never return his millions or billions of years of rule. But Nachiketa's authenticity has broken the millions of years of rule. So, your authenticity can break any rule, can break any suffering, can break any inauthenticity you carry.

The third important lesson you need to know is that when you take the responsibility, when you decide to become responsible, the whole cosmos simply listens to you; it simply follows you! With responsibility, even if you sit in one corner, your very space changes the way the world responds to you!

Vivekananda says beautifully, 'In Bharat, even if we want wealth, we sit under a tree and create the space. It happens around us!'

He told these words in the U.S., the country which teaches you that you have to work so hard to accumulate wealth. If you sit with yourself, you may accumulate peace, but not even a piece of bread!

Vivekananda says, 'In Bharat, even to accumulate wealth, we just sit and create the space, and it happens!' Understand!

What else do you think I did in my life? I just sat under the Banyan Tree and created the space. See, the city happening here! Did you know? When this land was donated to me, it was infested with snakes, because, there was a snake farm here. Before donating this land to us, the owner had moved out the snake farm. When he was welcoming me to this land he told me, 'Swamiji we moved almost all the snakes. We had snakes earlier. We slowly sold and moved out everything. But during the transition, snakes escaped, Swamiji!'

They were extracting snake venom here. It was a legal snake park. It was running legally as a business, an industry. That is the way it was handed over to me. See today, a city has happened! A full-fledged temple, and at least a few hundred people can stay here. People from all over the world can watch here. Please understand, it took two-and-a-half years for us to get a telephone connection! Just a telephone connection! Only in mid 2005 did we get the telephone connection! But now, people are listening anything I speak from here, from all over the world! I just created the space! It is not only a developing spiritual city now, this place has also become the role model, the source for multiple spiritual cities happening all over the world! Multiple spiritual cities happening all over the world! Understand! It became an inspiration for multiple spiritual cities to happen all over the world!

So, when you take responsibility, sit by creating the space and be ready to sacrifice. The world will simply move based on your word! The world will move as you want!

The fourth principle, the fourth truth you need to learn is the tremendous joy, the tremendous inspiration to raise myself to the next level, and enrich myself and others. Understand, for any experience you have, if you want to find out

When you are authentic towards your inauthenticity, it will lead to authenticity.

whether it is a true experience or not, if you are having the inspiration and power to enrich others, it is a true experience. Otherwise, it is your fantasy, false imagination. Real experience will empower you. How do you find out whether you kundalini is awakened or not? You will take the responsibility and enrich yourself and the world, equivalent to a Peetadheeshwar. Few hundreds will be enriched by you. If that happens, then your kundalini is awakened; otherwise it is not!

If you live with the pattern of 'life is a suffering,' wherever you go, whatever you do, life will be a suffering. If you understand that life is a life is a life – please listen, I am not saying you should create a pattern of life is joy or bliss. No! I am not saying that you should create a pattern or you should not create a pattern. I just wanted to tell you only one thing, if you decide life is a life is a life with authenticity, you will explode in the highest possible peak experience of life, the highest possible peak experience of life. Keep the life alive by living these four principles. Go on listening. Go on doing the completion.

Now I will give you the exact process of completion:

Declare with integrity that you are going to be complete. That is the first step.

Second, any incompletion sitting inside you, sit with the mirror and start talking it out (svapoornatva). If it is related to somebody else, start talking to that person with the motive of completion, not with the motive of taking revenge or creating a new fight! Don't go and do that! Then it is like a elephant going to take bath, but puts the mud on its face and comes back more dirty! Sometimes people go to complete with the wife and they start talking and pick up a new fight, and come back more depressed, more incomplete! Go and talk to them with the decision to complete.

And the third is a very important thing. Whatever you think is still sitting inside you after svapoornatva – completion with you and completion with others – complete it through cathartic processes like glassalolia – talking in tongues – manipuraka Shuddhi kriya. Use these types of kriyas, and through catharsis to complete it.

These three are the direct processes, direct method to achieve completion. Complete with these four tattvas. Bring completion within you with these four tattvas.

Understand, bring yourself to completion through all these three methods.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

The first step to completion is to declare with integrity that you are going to be complete.

Decide to LISTEN, continuously listen! When you listen authentically, you do not need a separate meditation practice, kriya, or anything for enlightenment. All kriyas, all sadhana, all spiritual practices are just to break the words you utter to yourself and make you cognize, 'I am free. I am powerful. I am enlightened.' That's all!

Today's subject for the Nithya Satsang is: listening and samadhi and how listening can directly enter into your system and make you experience samadhi!

Listen. Let me describe authenticity. You have three parts in your life: what you feel as you, how you project yourself to others, and how others feel about you.

List all the three separately in three columns: Column 1: How I feel about me. Column 2: How I project me to you, to the world. Column 3: How the world wants me.

These are the three columns. In these three, pick up the peaks and make them into reality. That is authenticity. Understand, in these three columns, write how you feel about you, how you project yourself to

others, and what others expect of you.

Please understand, when you define with integrity how you feel about you, the qualities you feel about you, you use to define you, and the qualities you use to project yourself to others, and the qualities others expect from you, when you list out all these three separately, you will know which one is your peak. Bring yourself to that peak. That is authenticity. Understand, that is authenticity!

You need to understand that when you are in authenticity, when you are practicing authenticity authentically, your whole inner space will be so alive. Just by listening, you will reach the depth of you; you will experience the depth of you. Just by listening! Even now, look inside you. Find out, are there any incompletions? Is there any restlessness? If there is restlessness inside you, incompletions inside you now, you will not be able to listen.

Whenever you listen to you, you listen to others. When you don't listen to others, you don't listen to you also. Get it? When you don't listen to you, you don't listen to others. When you don't listen to others, you don't listen to you also. Listen to you and listen to others. Only when you listen to you first and see that you are in completion, you can listen to others. If there are incompletions inside – I have not done this, I have not done that, this has not happened, that has not happened, I am restless – if you have such incompletions inside, be very clear, you will not be listening to me. You may be sitting here out of compulsion, or some other reason, but you will not be listening to me. When you don't listen, more and more incompletions happen.

Listen. Now, it is like because you are incomplete, you don't listen. Because you are here and you don't listen, this satsang becomes one more incompletion in you. But if you start listening, this very satsang will lead you to ultimate completion. What do you need for completion? Listen to yourself ! If your inner space tells you, you are in incompletion, or restlessness, or whatever, tell yourself, 'I declare completion now. If there is some incompletion, I will come and handle you (incompletion) after the satsang. Please wait where I left my shoes. Now I am complete! I am going to listen. I am going to listen.'

How many of you are cognizing what I am saying? How many of you are ready to declare now, that you are complete? Alright.

Now close your eyes and tell yourself, 'I am complete. I drop all the incompletions once for all. I keep them all out of my inner space.' Declare completion! I am complete! I am listening! Listening! Listening!'

You can open your eyes. Decide to Listen!!

Continuously listen! When you listen authentically, you do not need any separate meditation practice, kriya, or anything for enlightenment. Why do you need any kriya? Just to change the words you utter towards you. You constantly utter, 'I am bound. I am powerless. I am bound. I am powerless.' All kriya, all sadhana, all spiritual practice is just to break that and make you tell, 'I am free. I am

Just by listening, you will reach the depth of you; you will experience the depth of you.

powerful. I am enlightened.' That's all.

If you listen, especially to words coming out of completion, you will suddenly see that those very words go and change your inner space; they just change your inner space itself. When you listen completely, even if the other person is in incompletion, you will find that out. Your space of completion will find it. 'Hey, this guy is in incompletion. His space is in incompletion.' And you will know how to help him to be complete.

In these three traditions - Zen tradition, Vedic tradition, and tantric traditions - these three traditions use the power of sound. In Vedic tradition, Vedic chanting is nothing but becoming it just by declarations. Every morning you declare, 'aham brahmasmi. aham brahmasmi. Aham Brahmasmi. Shivoham. Shivoham. Shivoham.' Just the declaration! Such powerful declarations. Especially the collective declaration. You are there in that space.

If Bharat gets back to the style of Vedic chanting every day, at least every morning, I tell you, Bharat will be free from poverty, free from diseases, free from everything inauspicious. It is not too late.

O, Bharat! I am giving you my clarion call. Wake up! Enough of your Hindu abusal mentality! Just these declarations are enough. Because the space from which you act is responsible for the place you create. I wanted every village to have their temple from where the Vedic mantras are chanted every morning, the loud collective declarations are uttered and the whole village gives those declarations and supports it by 'tathaasthu' - so be it.

Every morning, we have these declarations: Lokasamastha sukhinobhavanthu - let the whole world be prosperous. During pada pooja we have these declarations and bless the world. But I feel it should also be done in the morning, when you wake up.

Understand, I am not promoting Vedic chanting as a faith or as a religious practice, or as a religious sentiment. NO! I am promoting Vedic chanting as a scientific method for prosperity, as a scientific method for awakening intelligence, and as a scientific method for success.

Listen. With integrity and authenticity, look in, cognize and raise your hand after the declaration that you are complete. Just now, immediately after the declaration, how many of you felt you are really complete? That is the power of completion! Understand. That is the power of completion.

That is the power of declaration. Your mind is not your enemy. It is just an untrained child. Have the right attitude towards your mind.

I have a pet; somebody gifted him to me. If he doesn't listen to what I say, he is not my enemy; he is just untrained. I don't need to kill him, or attack him. I just need to train him. But with your mind, you always have that enmity: I told you two times. You did not listen. But don't you see, you are unconsciously telling him to do what he wants, ten times? You are misguiding him. It is like this - if I tell my pet, 'Come, come.' but in the body language, I show, 'Go, go, go,' the fellow will be completely confused. Because the hands are showing, 'Go, go,'

If you listen to words that come out of completion, you wil see that those very words change your inner space.

but the words are, 'Come. Come.' What will happen to that poor fellow? That is what you are doing to your mind.

On one side, you are unconsciously showing the hand like this – Go, Go - but consciously you are trying to say, 'Come, come, come.' What will happen to that poor fellow?!

It is like the Hindu drivers. They will put on the left indicator, show the right hand signal, and finally drive straight. And the fellow who is coming behind does not know what to do! Whether he is taking left or he is taking right or going straight. In confusion!

You, you, you are responsible for your mind. You need to take the responsibility. You are responsible and you need to take the responsibility.

Listening, listening makes your inner space cognize right declarations. When you listen, you will find out two things:

• Many times, how you miss what is told.

• Sometimes, you will find out how the speaker is missing links on what he is uttering.

Usually, if you are listening to a being who is already in completion, you will not find a single disconnect from the flow of thoughts. I may be unclutched, but I am never disconnected.

But when you speak with ordinary people who are in incompletion, you will find this very clearly. You will find this very clearly!

Listening awakens your intuition. Understand, listening awakens your intuition. Listening awakens your innermost intelligence. Listening awakens your innermost intelligence. Catch it.

Catch the truth. Get the truth. So many things are said even during the break, understand, even during the gap. Even during the gap, during every silent moment, so many things are said!

For a person who wants to begin 'life', the first thing he needs to learn is 'listening'! That is why I keep this as the first lesson in our Gurukul. This should be the first lesson. Kids should be taught to sit straight, without restlessness, without moving the body for the first ten days. Even in the eN-Genius program, the first lesson, at least on the first day, they should be taught, again and again, to sit straight without restlessness, Listening! If the listening somehow starts in you, every sense, every sense will become so alive, awakened. I tell you, once the listening starts, your eyes will become sharp.

Learn listening; you will not need spectacles. I am talking to you with the responsibility that I am talking on national television. I am not promising any false miracle cures. Try it, and you will see. Try! Inside you, listen even during the gaps, listen to the absence. When there are words, listen to the presence of the sound. When there are no words, listen to the absence of the sound. When you listen, your smell, smelling capability will become sharp. Your listening will become sharp. Your seeing will

Listening awakens your intuition. Listening awakens your innermost intelligence.

become sharp. Your ability to receive the touch will become sharp.

Listen, when you can see sharply, when you can smell sharply, when you can feel the touch sharply, you will be so alive, so alive, you will be healthy, beyond diseaselessness. Not just aarogya, I am coining a new word, nirogya. Niroga. You know roga and arogya, you do not know nirogya. Nirogya is 'wellness beyond health.' Understand, 'wellness beyond health'. Listening can do so much!

These gaps I give are the moments I actually listen to you. Because in the gaps, I know, whether you are restless or in restful awareness, based on your body language. Whether you are listening or just arguing inside you. Sometimes people constantly argue with themselves inside them. Non-listening. Non-listening is Death. Listening is Life!

By hearing, understand, by hearing you won't understand me. Only by listening, you can understand me. People who listen, they understand what I am saying, even without any introduction to any spiritual philosophy. People who don't listen, they do not understand.

Listening, when you start listening, your kundalini shoots straight to the crown center. Your kundalini is awakened straightaway. You need to catch the truth. Only people with listening will even be interested to listen to my satsangs, because I give enough gaps between every words. Usually, professional speakers don't give gaps, because if they give a gap, your mind will go away somewhere. It won't come back. So, professional speakers are always trained to 'blah, blah, blah, blah.' It is more like a catharsis. They vomit their incompletion on you. And you grab that incompletion and vomit on somebody else.

I am not a professional speaker. I am a professional listener! Before I start speaking, I listen to you, in the silence. Every time I give a break between words, I listen to you. I speak what will make you listen. That is why my listening ends up as your listening. As I am a listener, I make you listen. I end up in making you listen.

Today's satsang is dedicated to 'Listening', because life starts from there. Don't be in a hurry to cognize what I am speaking, because your cognition is filled with so many judgments, opinions, attitudes, personal beliefs, and attributes. No. Don't be in a hurry to cognize. Don't be in a hurry to classify it with, 'I already know it. I have already done Inner Awakening. I have heard the morning satsangs every day.' No. If you already heard it even once, I will not repeat it again. Anything you listen to from me, understand that you are listening now, for the first time. If you had already listened, I will make sure that the words do not fall on your ears for the second time, because I won't waste your time or my time. I am Kaala.

The essence of today's satsang is this - LISTEN!!!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Listening, when you start listening, your kundailni is awakened and shoots straight to the crown center.

Yoga is 'authenticity in action', not just 'perfection in action', it is 'authenticity in action'. Listen! Authenticity in your thinking - means, raising you to the peak. Raising you, again and again, higher and higher, expanding you more and more.

Thursday, 9th May, 2013

I will expand on this subject - science of living enlightenment. Please understand, I first want you to understand these words:

'yogaha karmasu kaushalam' 'yoga is Authenticity in action' 'yogaha karmasu kaushalam'

I am translating it as 'yoga is authenticity in action'. Not just 'perfection in action' but 'authenticity in action'.

Listen! Authenticity in your thinking - means, raising you to the peak. Raising you, again and again, higher and higher, expanding you more and more. Listen, the moment I say 'expanding you more and more, continuously', how many of you feel - Oh, God! Then it is an unending process! It can never end at all! I will never be able to rest at all! It is an unending process! How many of you feel that way? Raise your hand!

You are all death-oriented. Understand! The first thing you need to do is break that pattern.

See, how many of you desire that you should live forever? You desire that you should live forever, but when I give the process, you don't want to do it! See, the contradiction! If you feel - Oh, God, authenticity is an unending process! I have to expand, expand, expand! I am not going to retire at all! I will never be allowed to retire at all - if you have that feeling, then commit suicide! Now! You are retired, NOW! You can rest now once for all. But that is not the solution. Committing suicide is not the solution. If that was solution, then all of us would have committed suicide. No!

Life is expansion. Life is expansion. Listen! Come to the space of listening! Life is expansion. 'Continuous expansion? Then I will never have rest! It will never end!' – If you cherish this idea then you are entertaining death in your heart! So, don't blame if you get the killer diseases in your life, because you invited them! The idea you entertain in your life invites different happenings of life. When you feel 'Wow, I am going to expand, expand, expand! Authenticity is the best principle!', then understand, you are entering into 'akshardham' - eternal life!

Break the pattern of 'When am I going to rest?' Why do you need rest? Increasing the speed of running IS rest! Increase the speed of running. Make it into flying! That is rest! Reduce the friction. You see, when you drive on the road or when you run, there is friction; because two things are rubbing each other. If you want bliss, joy, peace, don't reduce the speed. Reduce the friction. Just take off ! Your body, mind, inner space, consciousness, whatever you feel about you, go on expanding, expanding, expanding! That is the only way life can continue to ooze in you, overflow in you.

If you say 'No, I can expand; see now I do two hours of work. I will make it into four hours; not more than that. Then I will rest.' No! No! Make it into twenty four hours and few minutes extra! And penetrate into time! Whenever you need more time, whenever you need to do more work, stop the time, complete the work and allow time to move! You can do it! An ordinary Hindu housewife, Savitri, did it! She is not a rishi, Saint, sadhu, mahatma, siddha or yogi. No! An ordinary housewife in Bharat! She did it! She told the Sun, 'Don't rise until I get my husband back!' The power of authenticity!

God! Listen, Sun listened! Sun listened! It is possible! Don't think it is possible only for Savitri. Because she made it possible, she became Savitri! If you make it possible, you will become Savitri! There is no such thing as 'It is possible only for Savitri!' Because she made it possible, she is Savitri! Listen, you always say, 'No! No! That is only for Savitri!'

I have seen many, many, many times, ordinary people making it happen! And I have seen many times even great sadhus missing it! I know! In one organization, religious organization, the whole organization strongly believes that no one can achieve the space of their founder. They feel, 'No! That is all over! Now nobody else can become a Paramahamsa!' Authenticity of the organization is lost! I tell you, I give this as a command; THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM

Life is expansion, continuous expansion.

sangha should go on producing Paramahamsas and incarnations! You will continue to believe and work and succeed in producing millions of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAMs!

THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAMs more qualified than the original THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM! THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAMs more expanded, radiating than the original mould! The product which comes out of the mould can be polished more! You will not die along with me. Understand? There are some religions organizations – not some, many; they believe a person of their master's caliber can never happen again! I command and declare; THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM sangha should not only believe but also work and be successful in creating millions of people more qualified than THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM!

A sangha needs to be alive with the collective authenticity. The moment you believe that you cannot create more THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAMs, your collective authenticity is dead! sangha has to be alive, and a Master lives in the form of sangha after he leaves the body! After I leave the body, I will continue to be available to the world in the form of this sangha! So the sangha has to keep itself alive through the collective authenticity.

When you lose your individual authenticity, you become an atheist. When you lose collective authenticity, you become a bunch of atheists, which is dangerous!

Don't die with my dead body! First of all, my body itself is not going to die! Understand, 'unending expansion'! Here the word 'ending' is also negative. Continuous expansion! Continuous expansive expansion is life! That is life! That is life!

O, the Sons of Immortality! Disciples of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM! Listen! You are all Sons of Immortality! 'amrutasya putraaha'! Break all the root-patterns

which make you feel that continuous expansion is not possible or not necessary. Continuous expansion is life! authenticity is life! Life is a continuous expansion.

All the listeners listen! If your body is now ready to live just with a liquid diet, don't think you achieved something big! Move to the next level. Make the body more authentic, to live on pure air! Move to the next level. Make the body more authentic to breathe through every pore, even in the hands or legs! It is possible! It is possible! It is possible!

Authenticity only begins; never ends. Incompletion has only ending, it has no beginning! Authenticity has only beginning; no ending! All incompletions have only ending; no beginning. You don't know when it started. It would have maybe started before Time started! Authenticity has only beginning and no end!

Understand! In every action, bring authenticity. If you are breathing up to your chest, if your inhaling and exhaling is happening up to the chest level, bring authenticity. Make it up to the mooladhara! Then bring more authenticity, make it up to knee level!

If you can do six suryanamaskars, bring authenticity, make it into twelve! If you are able to handle 5 kg

Authenticity only begins; it never ends. Incompletion only ends, it has no beginning.

dumbbells, bring authenticity, make it into 8. You are not going to die, by making 5 into 8!

Does anybody think you are going to die? If you think, then you may die because you of your thought; not because of the dumbbell! Because of your thinking you may die, not because of the dumbbell itself !

Expand! Expand! Expand! People ask, 'What is the safe way of expanding, Swamiji?' Do it wildly! That is the safe way of expanding! I am talking with the responsibility that I am talking on national television. I am talking to you as a responsible teacher! I am teaching you the science! I am teaching you the Science of Life, not some superstition! I am not an atheist to teach superstition to you! When you seal the possibility, you are an atheist.

Atheists also have dial-a-prayer service. You can call up that number, and it rings, rings, rings; but nobody answers! If you know that somebody is going to attend at the other side of the phone, you will see that somebody will surely attend! If you think that there is nobody to attend on the other side, then it will not be attended! Atheists try to call, and then say, 'Nobody picked up! There is no God!'

Hindus try to dial, and say, 'Yes, it is an STD call (Subscriber Trunk Dialing – national long-distance call), but he attends! Keralites dial and say, 'Oh It's a local call, but he attends!' Bidadi people dial and say, 'He attends! It's intercom!' He attends! Understand! He is continuously attending! It is the possibility, the space of possibility, continuously living in the space of possibility!

I tell you, it is impossible, only until you break the patterns. You are not that demonic that you are living with millions of patterns! Even Ravana

only had two patterns! So, you are not worse than Ravana! Don't worry! You may only be having a few patterns! It is a little difficult only until you break those patterns. Not after that! Not after that! I tell you, whenever, wherever your mind or body tells you, 'Oh, that's all! I cannot expand!' break that pattern.

Break that pattern. For one year, tell yourself very clearly, 'I am not going to show any pseudosympathy to me. I am only going to show the real sympathy to me.' It means - practicing integrity! Take this as a one-year exercise. 'For one year I will not listen to any of the boundaries I am told of !' Break the 'I can't' for the next one year; physically, mentally, in responsibility.

Yesterday, I gave some work to one of my ashramites. He sat for seven hours, and came back to me! And when I asked him, he stands like a frightened kid! He just looked back at me, clueless! It is such a strong pattern living in him - the pattern of 'Nothing is possible!' It is just the exact 'anti' of me!

Just, go on breaking the pattern of 'NO, for one year!' Break the pattern of 'Not Possible!' Decide, thatyou will practice authenticity for one year and then completion for six months! Give yourself one year just for practicing authenticity and then six months to spend on completion, completing with

Practice authenticity and break the pattern of 'not possible'.

every person in your life. Practice authenticity for one year. I tell you, after that, the word 'Impossible' would have disappeared from you!

There is nothing Impossible! Listen! Actually what separates you from the Cosmos? The skin and the identity that you are only up to your skin! What separates your mind from the Cosmic Mind? It is just the borders you made that separates your mind from the cosmic mind.

'Impossible' is the border you built inside the cosmic mind, to separate your mind! Like boat jetties! In the ocean where all the small boats are kept, a huge stone wall will be built so that there will be less waves and the boats are protected.

Just as the wall separates the ocean from the boat jetty, your 'Impossible' separates your individual mind from the cosmic mind! Break that wall! After that, for anything happens in your individual mind, the cosmic mind will say 'tathasthu' – so be it!

Because of that wall called 'Impossible', you do not allow the vibration happening in the individual mind to pass to the cosmic mind. If there is a wall, anything that happens in that boat jetty will never reach the ocean. 'Impossible' is not reality. It is a pattern! Please listen!

Please understand! All the miracles I continue to perform is not to show off or demonstrate or my pride. It is just to tell you this one statement - Impossible' is only a pattern; not reality! If you think that something is impossible by you, it is only a pattern. It is not the truth!

If you stand up when any weight is crushing you, then that weight itself becomes strength for you, because you lifted that weight! If you allow it to crush, you are crushed! If you lift it, it becomes your strength! The

pattern 'Impossible' can either crush you or it can strengthen you! For example, if 10 kg dumbbells are kept in your hand it will literally crush your hand. If you lift it, the same 10 kg now adds strength to your muscle! If you allow it to crush you, over!

Now we know how to break the pattern of 'Impossible'! We will continue to break the pattern of 'Impossible'! We stood up! We will now start flying!

The first step in yoga is reduction in the words you utter. It means that the first step of yoga is reduction in words, due to practice of integrity.

yoga is authenticity in action! When authenticity is in action, it is yoga.

Bring authenticity in every level - the way you do business, the way you maintain relationships, the way you take responsibility, the way you think, the way you cognize the world, the way you respond to the world, the way you act, the way you feel, the way you behave with you and with others, the way you behave with your body, the way you behave with your mind; with everything, bring authenticity.

The way you behave with your boss - if you are irritated just by seeing the boss, extend your

'Impossible' is not reality. It just is a pattern!

authenticity. You will not get irritated at least for five minutes. If you are agitated the moment you go to the office, extend your authenticity. For two hours you will be in peace without getting agitation.

What is agitation? Not taking the responsibility for what you mean to others is agitation. When you don't take responsibility for your commitments to others, you get agitated. You get irritated. If you take the responsibility for your commitments, you will not be agitated. You will not be irritated.

The first thing you need to do is, break any root pattern in you, which does not allow the cognition of constant expansion. Complete with that pattern first, Complete with that pattern first. Get out of that pattern first.

Don't show pseudo-sympathy towards you. Because, if you show pseudo-sympathy, you are not showing sympathy to you, you are showing sympathy to your root-patterns which will flourish and grow and destroy you more.

I have seen people even forgot moving their hands while walking!

One priest, temple priest, came to see my pooja once. I myself was doing arathi. He was shocked and he said, 'Only after seeing your arathi, I realized we all forgot even to raise the hand fully when we do arathi! We just do (shows without raising the hand fully). The whole hand should move. arathi should fly in the air. Fire should fly in the air.

Authenticity is life! Authenticity is life! Authenticity is life!

Break all the patterns of inauthenticity. First break the root-pattern of

'Impossible' in your life.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Not taking the responsibility for what you mean to others, is agitation.

Human beings can move only with the ability to handle the great 'why' If you are not able to answer this great 'WHY?', if you are not able to convince yourself for this 'why', you will continuously suffer lack of inspiration, energy, laziness and boredom.

I welcome you all with my love and respects.

Today's subject for Nithya satsang is the answer for the great 'Why'! This big why? Why? Why?! This is the first stone you face in life. You can take this stone as an obstruction and never move beyond it. Or you can use this stone as a stepping stone and start going up. Or you can use this stone even to take off !

This great 'WHY?'! Please understand, whatever is said and done, human-beings can move only with the ability to handle the great 'why' If you are not able to answer this great 'WHY?', if you are not able to convince yourself for this 'why' you will continuously suffer lack of inspiration, energy, laziness, boredom.

I tell you, the worst things that can happen to a human-being is laziness attack or boredom attack. People talk about panic attack. No! I tell you, boredom attack and laziness attack is more costly than panic attack.

Panic attack happens to you if you have too many answers for 'WHY'. Boredom attack happens to you if you don't have an answer for 'WHY'. Laziness attack happens to you if you don't even want to know the answer for 'WHY'!

The great 'why' which created philosophies, gave birth to principles, gave birth even to Gods, Goddesses, gave birth to religions, gave birth to spiritual groups, cults, sects, cultures. Today, we will indulge on this great 'why?' I have news. You can take it as good news or a bad news. For this great 'why' you have to discover an answer. It can be good news if you are interested in finding the answer. It can be bad news if you think, 'Oh, I have to find out! Nobody else will give me the answer!'

I tell you, with integrity and authenticity I tell you, please do not accept anybody's answer for the 'why'. If you accept my answer for 'why', you will be living for my answer. At the most, my answer should be an inspiration for you to find out the answer for 'why' This 'why' created religions, made many people reach their peak and killed many people brutally in religious terrorism.

It is the reason for the whole, from religious terrorism to spiritual enlightenment. See, one end of the spectrum is religious terrorism, and on the other end of the spectrum is spiritual enlightenment. And for both, this "WHY?" is the reason. If you don't find the answer for 'why' and eat somebody else's answer, you can even be made as a religious terrorist! If you find your own answer for the 'why' you will become spiritually enlightened!

This great 'why', was yesterday's discussion with me and my top organizers of Dhyanapeetam. I was having a discussion. All of them asked, 'Swamiji, we need to answer this one question, 'Why?' So, I

contemplated, contemplated, contemplated on it. I told them straightaway, 'Now I don't have answer. I will get back to you.'

Thanks to the disciples who give me the space to say, 'I don't know'. Of course, I have started contemplating and meditating on it. I can see, the answer is evolving.

They were asking me, 'Why these four tattvas? Why meditation? Why kriya? Why all this?' We go on teaching people 'how' - how to live the four tattvas; how to do the kriya. But we have yet to answer this great question of 'why'. If you say do the kriyas for health reason, Why health? Why not die with disease? Why health?' No, the wealth! 'Why wealth?' No, relationship! 'Why relationship?' This 'why' has to be answered!

Some of the ashramites were trying to give pseudo answers. I said, 'No! Let us be very clear. I am very clear I don't know the answer. I will get back.'

I literally sat on it! One great thing with my mind or no-mind is that for any problem, until it blossoms into a solution, it sits on it! It will not get diverted by anything. Nothing can divert it, including sleep.

Listen! If you can't be diverted from a problem until you find a solution, you are called a Genius! I am defining Genius!

Boredom happens if you don't have answer for 'WHY'. Laziness happens if you don't even want to know the answer for 'WHY'.

Just few days ago, some of the mathematics professors have proved the theories and theorems of the great mathematician, Ramanujam. They proved the solutions which he found hundred years ago, now! And he is still a mystery! He is still a mystery! In maths, he has gone into the zone of bhava samadhi! Understand! Let me explain bhava samadhi.

See now, any product that the 'Apple' company launches, people buy. If they produce TV, they will buy. If they produce music player, they will buy. Anything Apple produces or launches, people buy. Why? Because, the idea of 'Apple' is already bought. The principle is already bought. So now, anything they launch simply gets sold! People buy anything launched by them, because the concept is already bought. Now, Apple can make any product and sell it, and people will buy it! They have reached a level that people will buy.

Please understand, I am giving you one of the important business secrets, which I don't follow but I want to tell you. Once I convince you with certain spiritual principles and you buy into it, I can blabber anything after that, you don't care! Of course, I am going to maintain my integrity and authenticity and I am not going to blabber anything.

But tomorrow, if I suddenly decide, 'Build the world's tallest broomstick statue here, on stone. Let us all worship. it,' you will see, I will have millions to worship that! And if I say, 'Worship this, this is the symbol of cleaning your inner space. Each time you go around the statue, one pattern breaks.' I can give meaning to it and people will worship it!

See, I have reached bhava samadhi in my field, and because of my words and initiation, even the broomstick will bring the effect on you. Because I have reached bhava samadhi in my field, so any bhava I create produces the result on the cosmic mind! Do all of you understand?

I gave an example of 'Apple' for a very common way of understanding a business example, so that you will immediately catch it. But don't compare the Apple example and the broomstick example! This is the next level.

My words become reality because I reached the bhava samadhi in that line. In the same way, in mathematics, Srinivasa Ramanujan had reached bhava samadhi through mathematics. He achieved bhava samadhi. So now, any theorems he created, anything he just scribbled or anything he wrote in his paper in some mood, it can be a theorem and it will be proved as right! It will be proved as right!

Please understand, I want you to understand a very important thing now. Any answer I give for 'why' can only be an inspiration for you to find your own answer for 'why'. If you just swallow my answer, you will never reach the space where I reached. You should find your own answer to achieve bhava samadhi. After that, you have to travel for nirvikalpa samadhi.

Please understand, people who go on proving that Srinivasan Ramanujan's mathematic theorems and theories are right - they will never achieve the space of Srinivasan himself ! It can be an inspiration for them to work on mathematics. But finally, one day, they have to drop even Srinivasan Ramanujan! They have to travel with that inspiration. Only

Any external answer for 'why' can only be an inspiration for you to find your own answer for 'why'.

then will they experience the space from which Srinivasan Ramanujan was operating.

I am analyzing this great 'why' from all angles. I sat, sat, sat, sat, sat on it. Now I hatched it! When a hen sits on the egg, it hatches; the chicken comes out. When a Master sits on a question, he hatches it, and the solution comes out! Now, the solution is walking out!

To put it in plain words, the 'WHY?' can be answered in a very simple way - for manifesting your potentiality! For manifesting your possibility! This can be the simple, plain, straightforward answer for 'why' The question 'why?' can be answered in a simple way - for manifesting your potentiality, possibility and reality!

But now, this answer needs to be expanded and explained. But for this, you need to be physically and mentally matured. You need to be mentally matured!

Millions of people die without even reaching the mental maturity to ask 'why'. Billions die, after they reach the ability to ask 'why,' but they do not have the ability to receive the answer! If you are matured enough to ask the 'why' and able to receive the answer, I tell you, all sufferings in your life will be destroyed. Because basically you are a logical animal. If your logic is convinced, done! You are in enlightened space! When you have found your own answer for 'why,' you are a jeevan mukta!

If your mind is not even matured to ask 'why', your individual consciousness is not even awakened! So you are not even a 'being'! You are not even a 'being' worthy of being!

A person who is matured enough to ask 'why' but unable to grasp the

answer, enters into the realm of human-beings. He can be considered as animal-human; little human, little animal.

A person who is able to ask 'why' and able to grasp the answer for that 'why', he becomes a humanbeing. He is free from suffering. He will be filled in joy forever!

The Being who is able to ask 'why', grasp the answer for the 'why', and discovers the answer for his own 'why' discovers and his own answer for his own 'WHY' is a jeevan mukta.

So, why this great 'why'? Until you understand 'why this great why,' it will be in your consciousness as 'Why this great why! Understand, until you are able to grasp 'why this great why', your inner space will continue to have this one question: 'Why this great why'. And 'Why this great why?' will not disappear until you find out 'why this great why'!

'Why this great why' is God's seed put inside you and sent, so that you won't rest until you become a tree!

Understand, each seed has an energy called 'veerya' that does not rest until it produces more seeds. Until then, it cannot rest. Even if you destroy the seed or eat the seed, that veerya goes into your body and does its job in some other way!

When you have found your own answer for 'why' you are a Jeevan mukta!

Listen! Listen! Listen! In the same way, the question 'why' is the veerya which is in your DNA structure. You will not be able to rest until you realize the answer for this why? When you realize it, you will be an enlightened being! You will be an enlightened soul!

If you want to market a product, you need to make people understand why. If you want to make people meditate, you need to make them understand why. If you want people to do what you want, to join your company or work or to become a lawyer, doctor, engineer, politician, for anything, you need to make them understand why.

The great 'why' is the veerya of your very DNA. Just like the veerya cannot rest until it becomes more seeds, in the same way, the 'why' cannot rest in you until you become God, until you become more enlightened beings!

The great 'why'! Contemplate! Contemplate! Do not try to avoid that 'WHY' inside you! If you avoid it, you will fall into depression! Sometime you suppress that 'why' and carry on with your life. At the age of sixty, you ask, 'Why did I become a doctor!'

One guy, great writer, came to me. I think he was sixty four at that time. He asked me, 'I don't know why I became a writer, author and speaker. Please guide me, Swami!' I said, 'Don't you know? You must have written so much! You have spoken so much! Have you never contemplated about it?' He said, 'No, by the time I started contemplating 'why' I became a writer and author; I had already become too popular. So, I continued with it!'

Many times, even before you find out why you are a doctor, you become too popular as a doctor! You continue with it! Fortunately, I found out

why I became a swami even before I became too popular; so I had a choice to change; I had a choice for transformation.

If you go through the choice for transformation, the choice for change and then choose, you will be the most stable person. That is why nobody is able to move me out of my decision! Nobody, nothing - nothing and nobody can move me out of my decision, out of my choice.

Sometimes, some of my close disciples will tell, 'Nobody can change you, Swamiji! Nobody can do anything! You will only live your life! You will only live as you want! Other people have to adjust with you! Nobody can do anything!'

I have grown, out of my millions of choices. So I will be stable in my choice. A man who grows out of freedom will be the most stable person. Understand! People who grow out of bondage will be the most instable people.

Sometimes, my swamis and swaminis or brahmacharis, ask me, 'Why do some people run away Swamiji? They say they want freedom!' I tell them, 'No! He is grown up in bondage. He is suffering with the bondage pattern. That is why he is instable!'

Anybody who is instable is suffering with a bondage pattern. If you have grown out of freedom, you

A man who grows out of freedom will be the most stable person.

will be so stable in all your decision! One of my ex-brahmacharis ran away. I still remember him; because he was with me in the past life. He was a sadhu. And he came back again. Fool! He missed this time also! He missed the last time and that is why he has to come back!

See, there are two categories of people who came back to be around me. - One - the people who missed me in the last birth. They were around me in the last birth, but they never became enlightened; they missed me. So, they have come back for completion and fulfillment; to achieve enlightenment.

• Second - there are some who were with me and became enlightened and completed, but came back just to be part of my sangha, to enjoy the leela, to play the leela, to see the leela with me.

When a magician comes to perform shows in a city, he brings his own people, because only with his own people can he do magic. Maybe once in a while he involves the audience, to prove his authenticity. But he does not perform all the tricks with the audience. Sometimes, he calls for a volunteer from the audience. 'Come, stand here!' Where he thoroughly knows that they cannot smell the intrinsic details of the game and the magic. Otherwise, the people who conduct the show are completely his own people.

Understand, it is the same here! There is only one difference. Magic is 'entertainment,' what I am doing here is 'enlightenment'! Magic is entertainment. What I am doing is enlightenment!

So, there are some who came down to play the game, to be an insider. Some others missed and came back. This guy is in that category, of those who missed and came back. I asked him, 'Why do you want to leave?' He said, 'I want to have freedom! Freedom! Freedom!' I saw that the

poor fellow was dying with the same pattern for the last two-three janmas (births). Fool! He again got caught in the same pattern!

I tell you, if you are suffering with the rootpatterns of bondage, you will be so instable! People who grew up with freedom will be most stable. I tell you, even when you marry - and when I say 'marry', I mean so many things and not just regular marriage.

Even the job you take up with a company is a marriage! With your lawyer, it is marriage! With your auditor, it is a marriage! These are all the different 'marriages' you go through in your life. You don't concentrate much on them and it later comes back to bite you. In every marriage, be conscious, be aware!

Choose a person who has grown out of a freedom pattern, not one who has grown out of a bondage pattern. A person who has grown out of a bondage pattern will always be instable. A person who has grown out of a freedom pattern will always be stable with his words and deeds. He will have extraordinary integrity and authenticity.

I have grown out of freedom; that is why there is stability! Grow out of freedom; you will have stability! You will have stability!

Anybody who is instable is suffering with a bondage pattern.

Sometimes people ask me, 'What is this Swamiji? You say that this person was with you in the past life. But if you see them, their whole life is such, there is no integrity, authenticity or responsibility! Their mind and their way of living is much worse than others!'

Understand, just because they were around me in the past, it does not mean that they have become siddha purushas, yogis or jnaanis. No! They missed me that time and they have came back again now. If they miss this time, they will come back again! Blessed are those who catch it the first time itself and achieve enlightenment!

Even if they come back, they come back just to play, be part of the leela - the show of the Master!

Be established in stability. Stability comes from patterns of freedom. Instability comes from bondage root-patterns.

Yesterday, I could see that this drama happens again and again. Every Inner Awakening program, this drama will happen on the first and second days. Nobody will dare to look into my eyes! The moment I look into your eyes, you think, 'Don't look at me! Don't look at me!' Because you know that when I am look, I will also see your inauthenticities. You are afraid of your inauthenticities! You are afraid of the wrong words you give it to you.

Here is a very powerful process for this.

1. First, you have to pen down all the dirty words that you give to you - all the inauthenticities you carry in your mamakara, in your inner image. When you are depressed, the words you give to you, are the inauthenticities of your inner image. You give what is not there, to you - 'I am a failure', 'I am an idiot!', 'I am a fool!', 'I am a headache to

others!' You give all these words to you, and you go on hiding it, not bothered about it!

2. Second, introduce yourself to all, as that - 'I am a failure, idiot talking to you!', 'I am a dirty, failure, fool interacting with you now!'

3. Then what will happen? You will understand your inauthenticities.

It will be too much, because it is going to hit at you. Why don't you bother, when you tell yourself these words? But when I ask you to tell others, you say 'No, no, no, no, no! How can I tell someone these words?' Then don't tell yourself also!

Whatever are the worst words that you use towards you, you have to tell those words to everyone and introduce yourself.

Come on! Why is there so much of inauthenticity? You constantly repeat these words to you, but you can't repeat these to others? If you cannot repeat this to others, why are you repeating it to you?

How many of you are getting it? (Some people raise their hands) The remaining people will get it when they do the process! Now, you will never ever build the wrong inner image for you again. Because you have to take the oath that whatever words you utter towards you from today, whoever comes in front of you at that moment, you will

Stability comes from patterns of freedom. Instability comes from bondage root-patterns.

have to use only those words and introduce yourself to others!

So, you can't say, 'I am General Manager of this company, that group, that bank!' No! I can't say that 'I am a senior lawyer, I am a senior doctor, I am the most popular kidney specialist, chutney specialist', whatever!

No! You have to use the exact words that you use towards you! 'I am a dirty, failure, idiot talking to you! Come on! Please hand-shake with me!'

Your whole mamakara will be exposed! Your whole inner image will be exposed to you now! With this, I am getting the pus out of your system and showing it to you, 'See, you are living with this!!' Now, you will naturally know how to build the right inner image consciously. Consciously! Why are you afraid, when I look into your eyes? It is because I will expose your inner image to you! I will expose your inauthenticity to you! Your actual inner image, that which is hidden even from you - I will expose that to you! Listen!

Listen! Listen! The great 'why' can be answered; the great 'why' can be answered only if the listener is matured enough. Only based on the maturity of the listener can the 'why' be answered. The answer for the 'why' will change based on the listener.

If a three year old child asks 'How was I born? Why was I born,' what will you say? When I asked this question when I was three, my mother told me, 'A crow brought you and dropped you here'. But my grandmother told me , 'We bought you in exchange for the husk from the market'. And when I asked how much they paid, she said, 'Two baskets for you, three baskets for your older brother, as

Part 11: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

he was a little big, and your younger brother was given free!' That was the answer I was given by my grandmother . And she could also answer only that much, because I am mature enough to understand only that, at that time. So, the answer for the why can be given depending on the maturity of the listener.

So evolve! If the same question is asked by a fifteen year old, he can be made to understand and given a straight answer. Because he or she now knows what is happening in their own body, what is happening in their own mind. With that they can easily make out. They can understand the answer for why.

So, when it comes to answering others, the 'why' has to be answered based on the maturity of the person. When it comes to your own, you have to find your independent 'why' and your independent answer. Understand, even your why will grow when you grow. Your why will grow when you grow!

So the answer for the great 'why' is no answer. All my answers can be an inspiration for you to find out your own 'why' and your own answer; your own 'why' and your own answer.

I tell you all, if you contemplate on this great why, why, why, you will have higher and higher and

When I look into your eyes, will expose your inner image to you.

higher answers. Finally, the answer you get will be the ultimate solution itself !

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Listen! Only by living intensely will the tattvas become satyas in you. Live the tattvas intensely and bring them into your life layer by layer. Your body and mind will listen to you. The world and the universe will listen to you. Humanity will listen to you. You will then be enriching the world and the world will be enriching you!

I welcome you all with my love and respects. I will enter into satsang. Today's subject for nithya satsang is this - 'practicing the principles, layer by layer!'

Listen! An ordinary man can start integrity. Just through integrity, if he practices it layer by layer, layer by layer and goes deeper and deeper, just by integrity he will become enlightened! He will become enlightened! Listen! Just by integrity, practicing integrity layer by layer , he will become enlightened!

In the same way, an ordinary man can start practicing responsibility as a simple vow to be successful in his life, to be more productive, to be more inspiring, and end up being the Lord of the Universe. Just by taking responsibility; he can become Mahadeva himself !

Please understand, these principles lead you to higher and higher planes,

even if you start in a very simple way. When you are strong and stable in living them, they lead you to the higher and higher planes.

If you see in our meditation programs, in our first level one-day program - the kalpataru program, even in one day, we teach the same four tattvas. In the morning nithya satsang, I speak only on four tattvas every day. In our two-day meditation program nithya dhyaan (NDY), we speak on the four tattvas. In our four-day meditation program - nithya kriya (NKY), we speak only on the four tattvas. Then again, in the two-day, Healer's Initiation program, we speak only on the four tattvas. And again in our two-day, eN-Relationship program, we speak only on the four tattvas. Even in our ten-day Inner Awakening Level-1 program, we will speak only on the four tattvas. And finally, in our twenty-oneday Inner Awakening (Level-2) program, we speak only on the four tattvas!

Then, is it all the same? No! It is neither the same nor is it different! Understand, it is neither the same nor different! It means that you are being guided deeper and deeper, layer by layer, into the same tattvas!

Understand, I speak on the tattvas, from morning satsang to Inner Awakening. Even after Inner Awakening, we also continue to have many group gatherings. And in everything - in enriching

Just by practicing deeper and deeper layers of integrity, you can become enlightened.

sessions, in everything, we only speak about the four tattvas, it is only about the four tattvas.

Then can you say 'Oh, I attend the morning satsang every day. I understand the four tattvas. Why do I need to go to Inner Awakening?' Can you say that? No! It is only after you come to Inner Awakening that you will understand it!

It is like somebody saying, 'After all, I have eyes! I can see what is there in the star, what is there in the sky. Why do I need a telescope, a satellite?' Can this be right understanding? Only when you get a telescope, and telescopes established in satellites, cameras established in satellites, only when you are able to do that research, you will understand that seeing the stars with bare eyes is totally different, and seeing them with a telescope is totally different!

The morning satsang is like seeing the four tattvas with bare eyes. The Inner Awakening program is like seeing the tattvas through the highest, best telescope, satellite-fixed telescope, satellite-mounted telescope!

Somebody asked me yesterday, one of my swaminis, 'What is the difference between satsang and Inner Awakening? People are asking. In satsang also Swamiji talks about the same four tattvas so beautifully. That is enough!'

As I said, I speak on the four tattvas, true! But are you listening? Are you experiencing it? So, Inner Awakening is to make you experience it! It is to make you experience it!

There is a big difference between seeing the stars with the bare eyes, especially in the day time. Sometime you look at the stars in the day

time and you think you are seeing them. satsang is like seeing the stars in the day time. kalpataru is trying to see the stars during twilight, evening. NDY is seeing the stars in the night time. NKY is seeing the stars using the home-made telescope. Inner Awakening-1 is seeing the stars using the telescope. Inner Awakening itself is seeing the stars using the telescope mounted on satellite. It means that you understand layer by layer by layer, you internalize, you imbibe.

How many of you, after finding the root-pattern, feel, 'Oh, God! I should share this knowledge of finding root-pattern and coming out of suffering with the whole world?' (People raise their hands). I authorize all of you! Go around and help people! Go around and help people! Even if they don't find the root-pattern, if you can, inspire them, they should find their root-pattern and complete it, only then they will start the life; that is a great service! I bless you all and authorize you all. This knowledge is not my copyright. Go around. Talk to your watchman. Talk to your newspaper boy. Talk to your boss. The newspaper boy may get it very easily than your boss! Talk to all your customers, clients, and employees. Talk to everyone. Make them understand that only when they find their root-thought-pattern and complete, their life starts.

How many of you feel, 'Only now after the

Only when you find your root thought pattern and complete it, your life starts.

completion of the root-pattern, is my life is starting?' (People raise their hands). That's the truth! That's the truth! Don't wait for them to come to the Inner Awakening. You help them in whatever way you can. When they come here, I will take care of them. I will raise them to the next level. You help in whatever way you can.

These four tattvas should become basic lessons in schools and colleges. Then you will not see kids becoming mad before examination, and committing suicide after the examination results come out. Every day, in the last few days, in Tamil Nadu, in every district, kids are committing suicide! And it is not even because they failed, but because they scored less marks! Can you see the madness? The education system has become terrorism. More people are getting killed because of this education method than through the terrorism!

tell you, unless you teach these four tattvas and help people find the root-pattern and completing from the young age, you are not going to remove terrorism from life and from education. You are not going to remove terrorism from life and from education!

Human beings need to understand - what are we doing with our next generation? Where are we leading our next generation? These four tattvas should become the basic lesson! Basic lesson! It can make Man, a real Man!

Understand, if integrity becomes part of people, first thing is that the country will be relieved from corruption and swindling. Emptying the country will be eliminated! First of all, the conversion will stop. Human beings will evolve as divine beings. Just see what a huge impact we will be able to create on human beings, if we can help them to find their root-pattern and complete with it! The root-pattern is the root cause of

all suffering. When you start practicing these four principles, of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching with enlightenment, only then does you life start.

When you practice it more and more intensely, when you begin to practice integrity, it will start like this - 'you will not tell lies, you will be on time, you will be punctual.' But it will end up as thoughtless space and 'vak-siddhi'. 'Thoughtless space' means enlightenment! 'vak-siddhi' means, whatever you utter will become reality.

Understand, integrity starts as not telling lies and being punctual; and ends as power to make any words you utter into reality and enlightenment itself !

In the same way, authenticity, starts as being straightforward, but ends as being 'possible', anything is possible for you. Whatever you read in stories is simply possible for you as life. You read in stories that the yogis lived without food; it is possible for you now, for people who are doing nirahara samyama! I know there are some people who just live on water; nothing else! Very healthy, hefty, not losing weight! Understand, when you start authenticity, it will be in one level. When you start practicing it intensely, you will reach a totally different level.

When you start practicing enriching, it may start with charity, but it will end up as Enlightenment.

In the same way, when you start practicing responsibility, it may be like this - you will become more responsible in your office and in your house. But it ends up as being the leader of the universe, responsible for the whole cosmos, with the ability to do anything with the cosmos, like ishvaratva!

When you start practicing enriching, it may start with charity. You may enrich somebody with one rupee or one meal or one set of dress. But it will end up as Enlightenment!

So practicing these four tattvas takes you to different-different levels. It takes you to a different-different space.

Listen! Only by living intensely will the tattvas become satyas in you. Live! Live! Live! Live the tattvas intensely! Bring them into your life layer by layer, layer by layer. Your body will listen to you. Your mind will listen to you. The world will listen to you. The universe will listen to you. Humanity will listen to you. You will be enriching the world and the world will be enriching you. You will be enriching the universe and the universe will be enriching you.

Even a common man can start practicing these tattvas, at his own level. He will understand integrity as not lying and being punctual; authenticity as being honest and straightforward; responsibility as being responsible for his job and the money he receives and enriching as charity. That is the way a common man will understand it. But start practicing, even if it is in that way. Start practicing!

I tell you, you will then absorb the tattvas layer by layer and the tattvas will absorb you. Then integrity will lead you more and more to the space of peace, and every word you utter will become reality. Responsibility

will lead you more and more to a powerful space, authenticity will lead you more and more to the space of possibility. Everything, everything is possible! Possible! Possible! You will be able to do everything! Possible!

Understand, enriching may start as charity; but it will end up as enlightenment itself, because you will be enriching by pouring your very life, the whole life, the whole world. When you renounce everything else other than enriching, you are in the enlightened space. You are in the space of enlightenment.

You can see the lives of great Masters like Basavanna, Jnanasambandhar, Ramanuja, Bhagawan Swaminarayan., there is nothing for their own! Ramanuja lived more than a hundred years but had nothing for himself ! He gave everything to society. Even after death, he mummified his body. That body is still sitting and enriching people! Gnanasambandhar - his presence is still enriching the world! Basavanna, Gnanasambandhar, Ramanuja, Bhagawan Swaminarayan - they all taught these four principles, from the very preliminary, primary level to the ultimate enlightenment level!

Only when a principle is able to reach you where you are and make you reach where you need to be, it can be a successful principle. The four tattvas have that quality. They can reach you wherever you are

The four tattvas reach you where you are and make you reach where you need to be.

and they can make you reach where you need to be. From where you are to where you need to be! These principles are independently intelligent. All you need to do is bring them into your life, bring them into your life sincerely, as sincerely as possible and as authentically as possible. I can see - every time when people practice these four principles, their kundalini is immediately awakened, their whole inner space is ready for energy darshan, they are ready for spiritual experiences and spiritual powers.

After coming to the program for the first time, how many of you experienced levitation and kundalini awakening? Raise your hand. (People raise their hands). It is the power of the tattvas, the power of the principles! Start thinking through dhamma, through these four principles of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. You will see that you will live in your peak!s

See, what do we do in nirahara samyama? Nothing! Simple, with the power of our integrity and authenticity, we declare that this body should produce the energy, directly from space! Over! For days you don't eat, but you are not tired! Energy is directly produced from space! How many of you feel energetic with nirahara samyama and The samyama? Come on! You are working twice as much as your regular routine! Am I right? You wake up in the morning at at-least 4:30 a.m, and you are up till 11pm. Am I right? With just four to five hours of sleep, you do heavy physical and mental work the whole day! Physical yoga and mental work of dhamma! No food, no sleep, but you are alive and energetic! How many of you found out this miracle? (People raise their hands). That is the power of integrity and authenticity!

Your body starts producing the food directly from space. Your body starts producing the energy directly from space.

And finding your root-pattern is not an easy joke. It's not that you don't spend any energy at all in finding your root-pattern. You go through so much of emotional turmoil and ups and downs! Usually when you go through emotional turmoil, your body will become tired, you burn more calories, you work out more! But even after going through this tough emotional turmoils, your feel powerful, full of energy with no tiredness! How many of you feel this? (People raise their hands). Relax! It is because of the power of your integrity and authenticity! Integrity authenticity and responsibility!

Understand, it is the power of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching! You need to know the power of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. It transforms your very body, mind, emotions, and cognition itself !

Understand, Poosalaar Naayanaar is a great saint from Tamil Nadu. What will be the power of his integrity and authenticity! Shiva himself wanted to reside in the temple that he built in his heart. And He (Lord Shiva) told the king, 'His (Poosalaar Naayanaar's) temple is much greater than the stone temple that you (the king) built!' Then what should be the power of integrity and authenticity of Poosalaar Naayanaar? It is the space of completion that he would have been living, the space of enlightenment that he was in!

The space you carry is the capital for your life.

The space you carry is much more important! That is the capital for your life. Listen! The space you carry is the capital for your life. Even with so much of heavy work, you continue to be energetic, because of the power of your declaration.

So you should know that the moment you understand the power of integrity and authenticity, you will fall in love with dhamma! It is not falling in love; rising in love with dharma! Start at whatever level you know, you understand about dharma. Don't think, 'I am only listening to satsang through TV! I will go and attend the Inner Awakening; then I will start practicing these four tattvas.' No! Start practicing wherever you are, whatever little you understand.

If there is an obstacle, it is because of root-patterns. Break it. Complete it. That's all! Anything is possible! When you are in the space of anything is possible, you understand that you are the favourite child of the cosmos –'Brahmanyam Bahuputratham'. I am the favourite child of the Universe!

So the essence of today's satsang is this: Start the four principles wherever you are, from that level and don't stop there. Go on intensifying it. Let your thinking become tattwamaya! Let the thinking itself become through these four tattvas. Let your thinking become based on these four principles, the tattvas will become satya. You will reach the highest possibility and enlightenment!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

The first thing you need to do is practice pure listening of the four tattvas, and think through these four tattvas. Integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching - let your thinking be aligned with these four tattvas. Continuously think through the four tattvas. You will simply be successful with you and with society!

Today is Adi Shankara Jayanthi!

The great being Sri Adi Shankaracharya was born today. One of the greatest philosopher on the planet earth, he still has the unbeaten record. Please understand, for somebody to have an unbeaten record in the field of philosophy even after almost 2500 years is not a joke! I can say that he is the first acharya who went from the south, and established the Vedic tradition all over the world. Please understand that at that time, different parts of Bharat were different countries. So, it is equivalent to establishing it all over the world! The civilization was such and he had the strength - he had the strength! Adi Shankara is still one of the greatest philosophers who walked on the planet Earth! He still has an unbroken record!

Understand, in the world of philosophy, there are only 2 groups - the ones who accept Shankara and those who reject Shankara. But, nobody can go beyond Shankara, that's all! They are either those who accept Shankara or those who reject Shankara. Nobody is above Shankara!

I still can't introduce Adi Shankara. Because when I remember him, I am just lost in the ocean of his glory, for what he has done! He was in the body for just thirty two years! Some biographies say thirty four, but no biography claims that he lived more than thirty four years on the planet earth. So, the maximum possibility is thirty four years. He studied the shastras, wrote commentaries on all the major books like prastanatraya - even on the stotras like 'Vishnu sahasranama', composed hundreds and hundreds of stotras of the level of 'Bhaja Govindam'! And above all, he argued - did 'vada prativada' and transformed millions of people!

He established four peetas – Shringeri, Dwarika, Puri and Bhadrikashrama. He established four peetas to keep the dharma (of Vedic tradition) alive. Of these, three are still are an unbroken lineage of masters. Only for Bhadrikashram peetadhipati, the Shankaracharya was killed by Aurangajeb before he initiated the successor. But by that time, the Puri Shankaracharya had taken charge and initiated the next Shankaracharya. Three of his mutts are (still) an unbroken lineage! And he created the philosophies!

Please understand, I am not saying that Shankaracharya created the philosophy. I am using the word 'philosophies'. Because he is so vast! He cannot even be contained inside Advaita philosophy. He was a space for the philosophies to happen! The best philosophy that happened out of

In the world of philosophy, there are only 2 groups - the ones who accept Adi Shankara and those who reject Adi Shankara.

him is Advaita, so Advaita became his brand. But he is not just an Advaiti alone. If you see his devotion – his composition 'Soundarya Lahari' - Oh God! Anybody will be mesmerised by the way he has described the form in his song. A person who can describe the form so beautifully can never be only an Advaiti! That was also a breeze happened in his space!

No one can imagine that he has done all this in just thirty four years! Please don't think – 'Oh, Swamiji also did it.' No! Now, we have so much of modern equipment that supports this. For all the five hundred books that I published, I myself don't need to sit and write it, because there are video records. Whatever I speak is video recorded, it gets transcribed, then gets edited and published. But in Shankara's time, he wrote every book, he himself has to write it! For every arguement that he conducts, teaching that he conducts, satsang that he conducts, he himself has to speak, as there is no (separate) audio recording system. It is not that when he speaks, it gets audio recorded and then transcribed. No! So he has to spend time separately for the conducting arguements and spend time separately for writing books.

Shankara has written three types of literatures. He wrote commentaries on the traditional scriptures - like 'Brahmasutra' bhaashya, bhaashya on the 'Dwadashopanishads' and 'Gita' bhaashya. That is the first.

Next, he established four monasteries. Please understand that it is not a joke to establish a monastery! Even in this modern day, with fifty five sannyasis directly supporting the mission and around a thousand two hundred full time volunteers (including rishis and everyone else) I am not able to establish monasteries everywhere. It is so much of work, you don't know! He established four peetas in four different countries he established! Understand that all of it was not Bharat at that time. They were different countries - like Kalinga desha, Chola desha, etc. In

those days, Sringeri was under the Chola kingdom. So he established in four peetas in four different countries - Chola desha, Kalinga desha, Goorjara desha and Himachala.

And his contribution to the world of philosophy is another major one! See, philosophers will usually be so impractical that they will not even have their own house! Philosophers will be so impractical that neither can people live with them nor can they live with others. That is why they can never create even their own house. They will always be beggars in the streets! But here is a philosopher who is so practical! He established four huge monasteries which are still alive, flourishing and thriving.

And incidentally, today is also the jayanthi of Ramanujacharya. Both of them are born on the same day, but of course with the gap of maybe a thousand five hundred years. Ramanuja's birthday was on the nine hundred and ninety sixth jayanthi. Of course because of the shaiva-vaishnava problem, vaishnavites usually tend to celebrate Ramanujacharya's birthday one day before. But the original thithi and nakshatra is on same day (as Adi Shankaracharya).

Nothing – nothing – nothing can be compared with Adi Shankara! I and my sangha pay homage to the adhipati of the Hindu tradition, the sarvangyna peetadhipati of the Hindu tradition. He is the

Philosophers will be so impractical that neither can people live with them nor can they live with others. Adi Shankara was a practical philosopher!

establisher of the Hindu tradition – of what you are seeing today as the Hindu tradition. Adi Shankara is the architect. Understand, even for mahanirvani akaada (oldest apex body of Hinduism), even though it was originated by Kapil muni, the by-laws are formed and reorganised as a sangha - as an organization, by Adi Shankara.

We bow down to the aachaarya with great respect! Let him shower his grace on all of us and bless us to experience what he experienced and expressed through his great words!

With this tribute to Shankaraachaarya, I will move to nithya-satsang today. I will answer the questions from Inner Awakening participants and all the participants. Please read the questions!

1. Question: Respected swami I am working in business con where my job is to make our buyers believe that they are getting the products at the best cost, without giving a good profit. If I lead a life of complete integrity, I may or the company may not be out of business. Please help me for this situation.

Swamiji: This is a very important question. I tell you, I really tell you. You do not need people to know what is your margin or profit. When I say integrity - please listen - do not reduce the quality of the product and do not try to cut corners. Do not try to cheat and do not try to delay the delivery.

For example, I say that this is the best product and the cost is ten thousand rupees. He does not need to know that I made it only for two thousand rupees. I can continue to be in my integrity by maintaining the quality of this product, the delivery date and all the services. Being in integrity does not mean that you need to tell the cost of the product

to the buyer. Understand; make the buyers understand very clearly we are a business organisation, we are not a charitable organisation. We are a business organisation. What profit we make is ours. All you need to know is that you get the best product. Please understand, if you maintain integrity in all these, then you are in integrity. Don't lie, don't talk about the cost price, and make it very clear to people that whatever words you utter will be honoured. Whatever words you utter will be honoured!

May I know who asked the question? Yes, please be seated. Whatever words you utter is honoured! For example, take this program - the Inner awakening program. Whatever I commit, I go on honouring it. But nobody needs to know about the expense we incur. Nobody needs to compare what they are paying to the expense we incur. You understand? Neither do we tell you nor do you expect to know. Everyone knows that what is finally delivered to them, is worthy of much more than what they are paying. There ends integrity.

Understand, please understand. Integrity is not transparency! It is honouring the words you gave. You are confusing integrity with transparency. Tell the people - we are in business. I have a wife, I have a car, and I have a house. I need a cell phone. Who will pay my bills? We are a business organisation. You can be very clear when you say that you are a business organisation.

Forget about business organisation, even charitable organisations need to run. I have to take care of people per month, they eat because of me. Understand, it is not a joke to run an organisation !

So integrity is not transparency. Integrity is honouring the words you

give, trying to honour the words you give. And go on trying to provide the best, this is authenticity. Neither in integrity nor in authenticity are you asked to be transparent! You are only asked to be transparent about the product and the cost. When you say this upfront, that perfectly alright! Understand. Your life is added into each product. For each product you create, your time is added, your energy is added and your creativity is added. What's the cost of your time, your creativity and your energy? So, integrity is not transparency. How many of you are clear? If you maintain your integrity in all these places, that is enough. Your business will flourish and pick up.

2. Question: The practice of the four tattvas has to manifest in our behaviour as a human being. And the correct practise of this will make us role models in the society. How can we achieve this?

Swamiji: First, drop the greed to be a role model in society. Live these four tattvas, people will simply accept you as a role model. If you are rolled in the four tattvas, you will be the model for society. Understand, intensely, intensely, as intensely as possible, as authentically as possible, think-thinkthink through the four tattvas. Please understand, think through the four tattvas.

The first thing you need to do is practice pure listening of the four tattvas, and thinking

Integrity is not transparency. Integrity is honouring the words you give.

through these four tattvas. Integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching - let your thinking be aligned with these four tattvas. For example, now if you are feeling very sleepy or drowsy, immediately bring authenticity. 'Come on, I was always like this until yesterday. Now let me wake up and practise these tattvas. Let me push myself to the space of listening. Let me take the responsibility for transformation and enriching.' Continuously think through the four tattvas. Think through the four tattvas. You will simply be successful with you and with the society. I tell you - thinking through the four tattvas is the best way to be a success and a role model to the humanity. When you think through the four tattvas, you will have a breakthrough in thinking.

Swamiji: What does it mean to be complete with any situation in life? May I know who it asked this? Yes.

Completion means feeling empowered, powerful, without any hangover, after every situation in your life! Completion means feeling empowered, feeling powerful, without any hangover, without feeling powerless during and after any situation in your life. If you are powerful, you won't be violent. You will not be lying spontaneously. You will not

Continuously think through the four tattvas. You will simply be successful with you and with the society.

be in guilt, fear or pain. So completion means you feeling empowered after every incident.

Listen! Every incident only adds to you. Sometimes it adds wealth and success. Sometimes it adds knowledge and experience! It only adds and adds and adds! If you are feeling that every incident is adding to you, you are empowered, you are complete. If you are feeling disempowered or powerless, then naturally you are in incompletion. So only when you live, you will understand this principle based on your experience what you feel, what you are and how you perceive you.

4. Question: Swamiji, I heard you say that sannyas is the best lifestyle and is the need of the hour for the world. You also said that sannyas is the true freedom. I don't understand how sannyas can be freedom. Can you please explain?

Swamiji: If you are married, you will understand! In so many different levels, sannyas is freedom.

One American soldier was in a bunker in Afghanistan with another American whom he did not know. The first soldier said - 'Why did you come to this war?' The second soldier replied - 'I am not married and I love war. So I came here. What about you?' The other guy replied - 'I am married and I love peace. That is why I am here!'

Listen! Listen! Listen! Alcohol does not need any marketing. Do you know that in Bharat, marketing or advertising alcohol is banned? Advertising of alcohol or any form of spirit is banned. It is not legally allowed. But do you know - this non-advertising - does it stop people consuming it? Understand, just by the experience it gives, it gets, one

fellow enriches another fellow about alcohol and gets enriched, and the whole world is drinking! At least in Bharat, the whole country is drinking! They import and drink! They make local arrack and drink! Sometimes, they mix and drink! Listen! You don't need a marketing department. just by the experience of the alcohol, people pick up the lifestyle of alcohol.

I tell you, sannyas does not need separate promotion. If they see me and my sannyasis, that is enough! It will spread! Alcohol is addiction, sannyas is de-addiction. That is the only difference! Come and see my peetadheeshwar training centres. Come and see my Gurukul.

sannyas is freedom even from the idea of freedom! What is real freedom? Freedom to surrender to the four tattvas is real freedom. Other than these four tattvas, nothing else that exists in me is freedom. Freedom is not simply doing what you want! It is allowing the four tattvas to live through you.

See (this declaration) - from today, as long as I am alive, I am going to be at pada pooja at 7 o'clock in the morning. At 8 o'clock, I am going to be in satsang. Do you understand? I did this for at least the last three years, and I am going to be doing it for all the years that I am going to be in the body. But I don't feel this as bondage! You may think - 'Oh, every day, day in and day out, I have to come out and sit and stretch my legs, and then I have to sit and talk something and entertain people for one hour!' You can get bored with anything, understand! If you are inauthentic, you can get bored even being worshipped! If you are authentic, even while you worship you won't get bored!

Understand, I never even feel that my commitment towards the world is bondage. See, you may be here today; somebody else may be here

tomorrow; but this is my lifestyle. 7 o'clock in the garbha mandir and 8 o'clock in this seat. I will have to continue this. It is not a joke! How many of you understand? (People raise their hands). Then you know! But, I do not feel it is bondage. And I do this not only my morning routine but for my whole day!

After this Inner Awakening program, I give only a few days break, and then immediately start Inner Awakening Level-1. Then a few days break and immediately start the next program - Bali Inner Awakening. Immediately after that is Kailash yatra. Then immediately after that is the August Inner Awakening! My whole calendar for next year calendar is already on the website. You can see! I already know what I am going to do for next full one year. But I don't feel it is bondage. I don't feel it is boring. Freedom is free from boredom and idea of bondage and freedom. Allowing the four tattvas to live through you is freedom. Getting it?

With integrity and authenticity, tell me - even if you are worshipped by people every day but you have to come exactly at the same time to receive the worship, the pada pooja, how many of you will be really bored? See, I am neither bored, nor tired. And I am not going to change the time. I am going to continue to receive this as long as I am in the body, and even after I leave the body! And the morning satsang is going to happen! I will continue to speak

If you are feel that every incident is adding to you, you are empowered, you are complete.

as long as I am in the body. After that, I will have my own mechanism to speak! I am neither bored nor going-to-get bored! Understand? Freedom means freedom from boredom and freedom from the concept of freedom! It means deciding to live with these four tattvas. See, decide - 'I am not going to have anything that is private or my own, other than these four tattvas!' That is freedom! That is freedom! That is freedom!

sannyas is the only way to true freedom! Please understand, I am not saying that it is one of the ways to true freedom. Even when it comes to Hinduism, I am not fanatic. But when it comes to sannyas, I think I am fanatic! But one nice thing, my fanaticism is established on sound knowledge and perfect experience. Sound knowledge and complete experience!

In my life, I have at least once doubted even the masters whom I believed – Ramakrishna and Ramana Maharshi. These two were the masters whom I believed while I was doing my practices. They both are my scale to measure anything. What is vairagya? I will only refer to them. What is enlightenment? I will refer only to them. What is tapas? I will refer to them. What is spiritual practice? I will refer to them. They were the scale for me to refer anything. Their words are the ultimate for me. They both are the Supreme Court for me. I doubted even them, but I never doubted

sannyas is freedom even from the idea of freedom!

sannyas in my life. There was a time I decided I will live without both of them in my life, before my realization of my mission. Maybe, I can say that I was in that space for maybe ten hours. Once I even thought of disowning Hinduism! I was in that space for three to four hours. I felt that the whole Hinduism is fake! All masters are fake! I was in such a deep depression. The last depression just before enlightenment - it means that flowering, that last phase that I have to walk and I have to walk it alone. So in that loneliness, I felt that all masters are fake and Hinduism is fake! Even at that moment I never thought I will leave sannyas! Of course, when I realized the ultimate, I understood that everyone has to pass through that phase. So, my connection with sannyas is more than my connection with Vedic tradition.

I tell you, even a failed sannyasi has progressed a thousand times more than a successful householder. Because as a householder, the responsibility you take is a totally different direction. It is all about enriching one family. The very scale you set for yourself is so low. It is like a mom-shop pop-shop guy. His whole goal is only a yearly turnover of ten-thousand-five-hundred-and-fifty rupees. A sannyasi - his every day turnover is two-and-a-half crore. So, even if he fails, he will be at least two crore! Even if the mom-shop pop-shop guy is successful, he may be twelve-thousand rupees. Understand, the very level in which you put your scale itself is different in sannyas. But only one thing - you have to be a responsible sannyasi. Of course, only with responsibility does sannyas come. A sannyasi is not an outfit (of society), he is an overfit. If mainstream Hindus take up sannyas again as a lifestyle, even if it is at least after sixty-five - after the retirement, I tell you, so much can be done to you and to the world! Of course if you ask me, I will say that you should start the sannyas life at the age of six, or if not, little early.

I commit, I will make mainstream Hindus accept sannyas as a lifestyle.

Any model citizen - the mainstream Hindus should take sannyas by the time you retire. I will make this as a lifestyle and I wanted it to be a lifestyle. Only then will people understand that there is a different way of living!

The lifestyle taught to us by the mainstream western philosophy is a lie, it is a failure! It is already proven that it is a failure, with the amount of depression, addiction, suicide, legal suicide and illegal suicide we see. When I say legal suicide, I mean things like bringing cancer for yourself and dying; bringing diabetes for yourself and dying; bringing blood pressure for yourself and dying all of this is legal suicide! You know that if you do all this, you will have diabetes and blood pressure. Then why are you doing that and dying? It is legal suicide! Socially accepted suicide and unaccepted suicide, that is all! If you drink poison straightaway and die in a few hours, it is unaccepted suicide. If you sip it little by little every day in the form of alcohol and die, it is accepted suicide! Accepted and unaccepted suicide, addictions and depression have proven that the lifestyle you adopted as a mainstream lifestyle is a failure!

I give my clarion call - Oh Hindus of Bharat! Oh the people of Vedic tradition all over the world! Wake up! I give you my call for both groups. People of Vedic tradition from all over the world and Hindus of Bharat wake up! sannyas is the only solution! This is the best

Only with responsibility does sannyas come, sannyas happen.

alternative lifestyle! Let the mainstream Hindus accept sannyas as a lifestyle like Buddhists. Only then will you understand and taste the joy of freedom and enlightenment - jeevan mukti!

I am coming! I am just preparing the ground and doing the groundwork. I will initiate at least one million – ten lakh sannyasis with this very hand! I will make sannyas as a mainstream lifestyle. Just like Buddhism, let the sannyas become the mainstream lifestyle! Understand, only with sannyas, you can go to the extreme of living those spiritual principles. Seeing the peak of spiritual life!

It is time, it is time! Only then can we save planet Earth! Planet Earth can be saved only by creating responsible sannyasis - sannyasis who take the responsibility to teach these spiritual principles. It is time!

The essence of today's satsang is this - SANNYAS IS 'THE' LIFE!!!

I bless you all to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Listen! Listen to what I am saying. I am your soul. How you relate with me outside will be how you relate with the world outside. How you relate with me inside, will be how you relate with you inside. I just reflect the quality of your ability to relate with others and you.

Today, I will answer the questions from Inner Awakening participants to help you all realize the four principles (tattvas) as satyas (truths) in your life.

1. Question: Swamiji, I have a feeling that I am connected and not connected to you. Back home I am so connected to you. I talk to you through the Gurumurti photograph. Whenever I have pain, I touch the photo and feel the vibration entering me, and the pain is gone. I talk to you freely, like I am talking to a friend.

I am staying alone away from my family, but I live with you. When I go out, I tell you that I am going out, and when I am back, I again tell you that I am back. When I go to sleep, when I get up, I talk about everything to you. If I am late, you wake me up. I live with you in my home. I drive my car and so many times I feel that you are with me. I have even escaped from an accident because I know that you pulled me out of it.

But here in the IA program, you are physically so near and yet I feel you are so far away, as though some wall is there between you and me. Why is this so Swamiji? What do I have to do to break this? Please help me to connect to you like how I do back home, even when I am not physically in your presence.

Swamiji: This is a very beautiful question. Understand, this is the right problem to have!

See, I always say that there are some wrong problems to have & there are some right problems to have. Sometimes, people have the problem, 'I have too many orders, I am not able to supply them.' Sometimes, people have the problem, 'I don't have any orders, I am just jobless'. Which problem is better to have? Having too many orders and not able to supply them is the better problem to have, the good problem to have.

Listen! I am now expanding on some of the important truths. I represent your innermost soul atma. Understand, I represent your innermost soul. atma, completion. If you are able to relate with me through my photograph, it means that you have already done enough of self-completion. You are complete within you. The svapoornatva is done.

But if you have a problem when I am physically around you, if you are not able to feel that strongly connected and close to me, it means that you still

I represents your innermost soul atma, completion!

need to do poornatva, completion with others. You need to do completion. Understand, in whichever space you are complete, you will be deeply connected to me in that space. How many of you have this problem? It means that you have done a lot of completion with yourself, but even in the completion, you have not completely completed! If you completely complete it, even the completion with others, you will be complete.

Listen! Listen to what I am saying. I am your soul. How you relate with me outside will be how you relate with the world outside. How you relate with me inside will be how you relate with yourself inside. I just reflect the quality of your ability to relate with others and with yourself. How many of you are able to cognize this? It's a very intimate question. I can understand you completely. And there are thousands here who can sympathize with you and understand you completely.

Sometimes you will see a new devotee, a person coming to see me for the first time, and you will see me standing and talking to the person for a long time, and enquiring,. 'How are you? How do you feel?', as if I know him for a long time. When you see my conversation and my words, you will catch that I know thoroughly about him. he is coming for the first time, but I will be asking him – 'What happened to your house problem, were you able to sell it?' You will see me spending so much time with him. Sometimes, for a long time devotee who is connected to me for ten years, I will ask, 'What's your name?' That's all!

Your state means you have done more svapoornatva but less completion with others. Now you need to concentrate on completing with everyone. If you have the feeling of completion with all the people around you, you will feel the same nearness with my physical presence that you feel with

my photograph. And I will also be reciprocating in the same way. I will also be reciprocating and responding to you in the same way.

Understand, every devotee has his own version of me - atma THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM, with whom they talk and relate to! And sometimes, they also talk back on my behalf ! How many of you talk back for me? God! See how you do this even when I am in the body!

So, there are many devotees who literally live with me. It is called ishta nishtha and leela-dhyana; it means, feeling strongly connected to your own version of your chosen ideal. In Hindu tradition, you are free to choose your ideal. You can choose whoever you want as your Guru.

Your Kulaguru can't be changed, but your sadGuru can be changed. KulaGuru means family Guru, sadGuru means spiritual Guru. All families will have one Guru who is the Guru for that community. Having a Kulaguru is more for the purpose of training you as a child into the disciplines of what to do and what not to do. For example - take a bath three times a day, do sandhyavandana (worship at sunrise and sunset), Gayatri japa (chanting the Gayatri mantra), small-small instructions like that. SadGuru is the one who gives you enlightenment.

From time immemorial, Vedic tradition gives you

How you relate with me outside will be how you relate with the world outside. How you relate with me inside, will be how you relate with you, inside.

the freedom to choose your sadGuru, the one who will lead you to enlightenment.

You can choose your God. You can even choose your Guru as God and God as Guru. Understand. You can choose your Guru. You can choose your God. You can choose your God as Guru and Guru as God. Or you can choose both separately. We have hundreds of examples for those choosing Guru as God. How many have done that? For choosing God as Guru - Arunagirinathar did it.

In Thiruvannamalai, there was a great saint, a devotee of Lord Muruga, called Arunagirinathar. he chose God, Lord Muruga Himself, as his Guru - and Muruga appeared and initiated him, and gave him enlightenment! he sings – 'Guruve, varuvaay, arulvaay Muruga!' he calls Muruga as Guru.

So you can choose God as Guru and Guru as God. And you can also choose both of them independently. Just like you can have Lord Shiva as God and Swamiji as the Guru, you can as have Nithyanandeshwara as God and THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM as Guru, you can have Rama as God, and Ramadasa as Guru. You can have all the options. I can give you hundreds of examples of how many people choose God and Guru independently.

Sri Ramakrishna chose Goddess Kali as his Guru. In the beginning, he chose Kali herself as his Guru. Then Kali herself came in the form of Bhairavi Brahmani and taught him! Later he chose Kali as God and Totapuri as Guru. Hinduism gives you a vast variety, a vast variety!

Living with your chosen ideal is called ishta nishtha or leela dhyana. I have seen so many people, who are ordinary villagers in Bharat, living with their chosen ideal and living the highest enlightened life, without even knowing words like integrity, authenticity, responsibility, enriching

and all that! Without knowing any of these words, they are radiating, radiating enlightenment!

I tell you, just this one truth of ishta nishtha and leela dhyana has made millions of Hindu villagers enlightened! Millions of Hindu villagers practice the presence of God. Do you understand what you are doing? You are unknowingly practicing the presence of God!

This country that I speak about every time is a great civilization, the civilization of Bharat! In the western world, kids are taught to live with Barbie dolls or the cartoons that they see on TV. Fortunately, God saved me! I was born in a village in South Bharat.

From a young age, I was living and practicing the presence of God. See, what I understood about Lord Ganesha at the age of three, and what I understand about Lord Ganesha now, is different. But it is that understanding at the age of three that has led me to this understanding.

If I had been too busy with Mickey Mouse or Tom and Jerry at the age of three, I would have been disillusioned at the age of thirteen when I discovered that Tom and Jerry don't exist. But I would not have reached any higher understanding. Instead, because I started living with Ganesha at the age of three, even at the age of thirty–five, I

Practicing the presence of God makes you more and more authentic.

have a higher understanding of Ganesha that has led me to higher and higher planes of existence. ishta nishtha and leela dhyana means practicing the presence of God and living with God!

Understand, for every individual who wants to attain enlightenment through the path of devotion, who wants to make their life authentic, this is the best path. I tell you, whether you want it or not, your life will continue to become more and more authentic, because you know that I am there! I am there!

Practicing the presence of God makes you more and more authentic. That is the beauty of the Hindu tradition, the beauty of the Vedic spiritual tradition! ishta nishtha helps you do a lot of self-completion with you. Actually, because of this leela dhyana practice, you become more complete with you.

And if you observe deeply, you will find that if you have any incompletion with you, you will feel that I am angry with you that day! You will feel that I am angry with you. When you have any incompletion inside, you will project its reflection on me, and you will feel that I am angry with you. All you need to do is do completion with yourself and completion with others.

How many of you feel that I am angry with you? All of you have to do completion with yourself and completion with others. Understand, I am not angry with you! If I am angry with you, then I am incomplete. I am not angry with you, because I am complete with myself and with others. All you need to do is complete with you and with others.

Understand, the completion you need to do with you and with others is responsible for how you feel connected to me on the outside and inside,

because you practice the presence of God, ishta nishtha and leela dhyana. See, all these are three different words, but they finally boil down to the same thing. leela dhyana means, remembering and experiencing all the acts of your chosen ideal.

Remembering all the pastimes of Krishna is Krishna leela dhyana. Remembering all the leela (divine play) of Shiva, and experiencing it as if it is happening now, is Shiva leela dhyana.

Even for you all, for many of my devotees, wherever you are, you will feel that I just possess you! You will simply remember only me, whether you are sitting in the office and doing your job, or in the kitchen, ironing clothes, washing vessels, or anything!

How many of you feel that for almost twenty - four hours, I am there in your memory as an undercurrent in your life? Whatever you may be doing, I will be there! This is leela dhyana. This is practicing the presence of God or Guru in your life.

Like this devotee has written, whenever he goes out, he tells me, 'Swamiji, I am going out and I will come back.' Same way, when you wake up, you say, 'Swamiji, I am on time. I am in Integrity!' If not, you say, 'Swamiji, I am late. I am completing with you.' This is practicing the presence of God.

leela Dhyana means, being lost in the pastimes of chosen ideal, Guru or God.

See, you can be doing this with anybody. You can do this with Shiva, Hanuman, Rama, Krishna, Devi, whoever you have as your chosen ideal. You can do this with Guru or God; you have the option!

Practicing the presence of God is so powerful! I need to tell you - I myself did this, practicing the presence of God in my life. I carried the photograph of Sri Ramakrishna, from the age of thirteen till the age of twenty-two, practicing his presence continuously, the whole day!

Practicing the presence of God is one of the most powerful methods to make you authentic and integrated. Practicing the presence of God is one of the most powerful and integrated methods for becoming enlightened!

Listen! I have defined leela dhyana. leela dhyana means, being lost in the pastimes of the Guru or God. One thing with practicing it with God is that you will not be directly involved in the whole leela. So you have to remember and try to practice. With Guru, you are directly a part of it. So you don't even need to try to remember; he will be sitting inside you and remembering you! It will happen on its own. This is called leela dhyana. Even if you are afraid that he is going to scold you, it is leela dhyana!

Practicing the presence of God is constantly feeling that you are with him and he is with you. Practicing the presence of God is the greatest and most powerful technique to put you in bhaava samadhi immediately. Ramakrishna practiced it. Ramana Maharshi practiced it. Even the great agnostic, atheistic enlightened beings like J. Krishnamurti practiced it.

If you read the biography of J. Krishnamurthy, you will see that from a young age, he was trained to practice the presence of a higher power.

Understand, practicing the presence of God directly leads you to bhaava samadhi.

The third word I uttered is ishta nishtha. You may accept all divine beings. If you have chosen Shiva as your ideal, it is not that you will not go to a Vishnu temple, you will not go to a Devi temple, but if you are connected to Shiva, you will know that he is your ideal!

Ramakrishna gives a very beautiful example.

The lady of the house serves everybody in the family. She serves her brother-in-law, sister-in-law, father-inlaw, mother-in-law, husband's elder brother, younger brother, sister's husband. She will serve everyone, give them food, give them water to wash the hands and take care of them. But she knows that her bed is only for her husband!

In the same way, you may bow down in front of any deity, any Guru, but you know that you are bowing down only to your Guru in this form. Be very clear: it means that you may bow down in front of any deity, but you know that you are bowing down only to your chosen ideal! This is ishta nishtha.

In the same way, if your chosen ideal is Shiva or Devi or Muruga, even if you bow down to me, you should bow down to me only as an embodiment of your chosen ideal. For example, if your chosen ideal is Vishnu, even if you bow down to me, if you

Understand, practicing the presence of God directly leads you to Bhava samadhi.

bow down at all, you should bow down to me only as an embodiment of Vishnu. If your chosen ideal is me, even if you bow down to anybody else, you should bow down to them only as an embodiment of me. That is ishta nishtha. That will bring integrity, ekaagrata, to your devotion.

Understand these three words. Then you will understand this whole space that the questioner is going through. I address all of you who are in that space. Practicing the presence of God, leela dhyana, ishta nishtha all these three boil down to the same space, the space of bhaava samadhi.

Practicing the presence of God, leela Dhyana, ishta nishta, all these three boil down to the same space, the space of bhava samadhi.

leela dhyana means constantly remembering the actions and life of your chosen ideal. Practicing the presence of God means cognizing that His presence is there with you and constantly relating with Him, keeping Him present in your presence. Keeping Him present in your presence is practicing the presence of God.

Practicing the Presence of the God means, cognizing that His presence is there with you and constantly relating with Him. Keeping Him present in your presence! Keeping Him present in your presence is practicing the Presence of God.

ishta nishtha means bowing down to and revering only your ishta. Wherever you bow down, even if you are bowing down to your father or mother, you should know that you are bowing down to your ishta, who is in your heart.

You need to know: I myself bow down to the THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM who is in your ananda gandha, your inner space - whether he is awakened or not!

He is there in your ananda gandha, whether you experience it or not. If you are initiated into ananda gandha, you will also experience it. If not, you may not experience it, but I can experience it. I bow down to the THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM who is in your ananda gandha.

So, to answer this devotee's question, the solution for this problem of feeling close with my photograph but distanced from me is this. Because you already practiced the presence of God with my photograph, you feel that intimacy. You feel the completion in your inner space.

But now, you have to complete with everyone! You should also be in completion in your outer space. Then you will feel the same intimacy, the same nearness, even outside you. And I will also be responding in the same way!

All the ashramites who are with me now have practiced the presence of God in their past janma (birth) and received the boon to live around me. But unfortunately, some of them have forgotten about it, and when they are given that space, they miss the chance to continue to practice the presence of God. Then they are again away for the next janma, and after two janmas they again practice the presence of God and come back. They have been doing this and falling into the same rut for lifetimes!

Practicing the Presence of the God means, cognizing that His presence is there with you and constantly relating with Him

If you also complete outside and catch the same closeness that you feel with me outside you also, you are complete and you live an enlightened life. You will enrich yourself and others. So all you need is more completion with others!

2. Question: What is the significance of doing homas (fire rituals), especially when I am sitting in your breathing space the whole day? Is there anything more that doing a homa could add to my inner space and my spiritual growth? Can you please explain?

Listen: homa is not a faith-based action; it is a science-based action. First, understand that it is not a faith-based action but a science-based action. There are many ideas that are not scientific, but are considered scientific, because it has been promoted in that way. For example, you think that if you eat, you will become more energetic. This is considered as science because the media promoted it. Why don't you eat fast-food every day and see? It is not a science-based action, it is a faith-based action, which has become a science-based action because the media promoted it. Are all of you getting it? I can give you hundreds of examples like this.

You think that if you take antibiotics, your cough will disappear. It is not a science-based action. I'm trying, but it's not disappearing. Because the media promoted it, it has almost become a science-based action.

homas and yajnas are not faith-based actions; they are science-based actions. When a person who practices integrity utters the words, 'Ihaagachcha, ihaagaccha, iha tishtha, iha tishtha', that space is filled with the presence of the deity, the Divine energy that he is inviting and invoking! Especially for all the homas that happen on this campus, I am responsible for the Divine Presence to be there, and receive what you

Understand, when you invoke those energies in the fire with integrity, properly and through the right procedures, the Divine appears and receives your offering! Experience the space of the Divine! Even though it is only a faith-based action, you think that if you have cough lozenges, you will not have a cough! No! If you take them, your throat is engaged in something else, so you don't cough, that's all!

homas, yajnas, yagas - all of them are very powerful science-based actions, not just blind rituals.

Tomorrow, in the Kalabhairava homa, you will see, you will see the Presence! He will literally be there, receiving the offerings and responding to you! When you are in that presence and making the offerings, he will straightaway answer your prayers and give you boons.

I challenge you - if you do scientific analysis and research, you will see that the ability of homas to cure disease will be more than that of allopathy! Unfortunately, the science of performing with integrity and authenticity is lost - that is where the problem is! We will it revive now. We are reviving it now!

I am especially reviving it with my Gurukul kids.

The vedic rituals of homas, yajnas & yagas are science based actions, not faith based actions.

My Gurukul kids will be the best integrated and authentic beings on the planet earth! And they are going to be chanting these mantras in future. Do you know the effect of that on the planet earth? You will see!

And, I commit with you all, I will create a group of my Gurukul kids who are able to do yajnas like Varuna yajna. And I guarantee one hundred percent that when they go and perform those yajnas in any city, it will simply rain! I'm training them for the yajnas like Varuna yajna and Vaitheeshwara homas.

You will see, when they practice this mallakamba (pole yoga) and martial arts, even their muscles will be integrated into their integrity! I'm training them. I'm still training them with more details, including how the yajna kundas should be created, how the yantra will be, everything. And everything will be so authentic that when they say, 'Let it rain,' it will just shower!

Only the water which showers from the sky can put the fire out, nobody else can put it out! And it will shower and put the fire out. Only then will the yajna end! Only when it showers, they will say - 'Okay. Agne tvam samudram gaccha, prithivi tvam sheetalaa bhava,' indicating that the homa is ending. It is just the power of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and the decision to enrich!

I'll prove this as a science to the world. When you are sitting in my breathing space or in the homa, be in the space of pure listening. Deities land in the homa, and the Presence opens up in the homa as a sound! Understand, they then become fire, but the vehicle through which they land is a sound!

homa is science-based action, not faith-based action. So listen! Be in the space of pure listening! It can transform you. It can transform you. It can just transform you!

I bless you all to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM! Thank you!

First understand, that all the last rites you do, the celebrations you do, the prayers you do, everything is not for that soul, it is for your own completion with that soul.

I welcome you all with my love and respects. Today, I will continue to answer your questions in the Nithya satsang, to help you imbibe these tattvas (principles) as satyas (truths).

1. Question: Swamiji, you said that when a person passes away, the being immediately takes another body. But here, we do prayers for the being. The being will be celebrating his or her new birthday! How will it help if we simultaneously do prayers over his death?

It is a science. This is an important question, because this belief - or rather, this experience - makes us real mystics.

Please understand, only when you go beyond dos and don'ts will you become a religion. Until then, you are only a social cult. Only when you go beyond, life and death reveal their mysteries, and it becomes a religion. I feel blessed that I was born into a religion! And I feel double-blessed, even more blessed, that I also discovered my religion!

First understand that all the last rites you do, the celebrations you do, the prayers you do, everything is not for that soul; it is for your own completion with that soul.

Understand that all the last rites you do, the celebrations you do, and the prayers you do, everything is not for that soul; it is for your own completion with that soul. You carry a lot of incompletions with the being who left. So you need to do completion again and again with that being. It is the time for you to sit and do completion with that being. That is the essence! You do completion with that being, for that being! The purpose of shraadha, last rites, pinda tarpana - everything, is for you to complete with that truth, with that being, with that person who left the body.

People ask me, 'Swamiji, should I do shraadha, pinda tharpana and all that regularly?' I tell you - do it! More than it helping the person who left the body, it will help you. It will help you! You will be out of incompletions.

The incompletions you carry with your parents or the elders in your family is what is known as pitru dosha. Understand? The incompletions you carry inside you with your parents is pitru dosha. The incompletions you carry about snakes and reptiles is naga dosha. Getting it?

The person who leaves the body immediately takes another body. Whatever you give - like shraadha or pinda tharpana does not reach him. But it completes you! Understand?

Question: What is the significance of doing pinda tarpana through an incarnation? How does the Maheshwara pooja help to release pitru doshas, and how does it help me and the departed soul?

There are two things that you need to understand here.

Part 12: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

First thing: an incarnation is the space of eternal completion! Physically, mentally, spiritually, he is the space of eternal completion. Offering pinda through him, through the Maheshwara pooja, is literally like completing with your pitrus.

When you offer Maheshwara pooja to an incarnation, and he accepts or receives the Maheshwara pooja given by you, during those moments he is the direct representative of the pitrus!

Even during the completion process that we do here, if the elders with whom you need to complete are no longer alive, you ask somebody to sit with you representing that person, and you talk to him and complete with him. How many of you did that? Maheshwara pooja is exactly the same thing!

In Maheshwara pooja, I myself sit with you and help you complete with your pitrus. I myself sit with you to help with the completion - not just for the completion of emotional wounds, but also for any other incompletion. For example, you may have not offered something to them, or you treated them in some wrong way when they were alive, or you didn't give them food or medicines when required, and so on.

You have a duty to complete with everyone who is involved in your life. Each human being has a duty to complete with all these five – your pitrus (elders) and your parents who are alive, the family deity, family Guru, the Nature which

Physically, mentally, spiritually, an incarnation is the space of eternal completion.

is around you, and your sadGuru (spiritual Guru). All of you are expected to complete with all of them.

Somebody in this group may have left the body, and you may have some incompletions with them. For instance, if you did not give them food properly in their old age, but you swindled their property after they died, or you did not take care of them when they were alive, but you have inherited huge wealth after they left.

So if the incompletions are there with them, as a prayaschitta (process for completing with them and restoring integrity), I myself sit and liberate you from those incompletions by accepting the food as their representative. And actually, even though the food does not reach that soul, that soul will be liberated from the incompletion that it carries with you. The food itself does not reach the soul, but the completion reaches that soul! Do all of you understand?

See, it is like this - you will be relieved from the incompletions you are carrying, and you will become complete, and that being also will be relieved from the incompletions it carries because of your incompletion. The being would have already taken the next birth. But suddenly, you will see that for no reason, he feels relieved from his karmas and he starts progressing in his journey to wherever he needs to progress.

So it is like completing the incompletions on both ends. This is the job of an incarnation, whenever he accepts the Maheshwara pooja. When you sit and do shraadha and pinda tarpana on your own, the responsibility is with you. When I sit and receive the Maheshwara pooja, the responsibility of completing you and completing them is mine.

So, Maheshwara pooja is a method to complete with you and with that soul who departed from your life. And, once you offer Maheshwara pooja, after that you may not even need to do shraadha. Once the Maheshwara pooja is done, the completion hap-

pens eternally. After that, you may not need to do shraadha. shraadha is more like you sitting and doing completion with your efforts. Maheshwara pooja is like making the completion happen on both ends. Maheshwara pooja is done more as a prayaschitta (completion). If you have done something really, really wrong, like not caring, not supporting, not taking care, and now you feel that you need to complete with that being, then Maheshwara pooja is done. Otherwise, shraadha itself is enough.

If you had a very good relationship when they were alive, and you feel that you don't carry big incompletions, just small-small emotional blockages, then shraadha itself leads you to completion. But completing with the people in your life, even those who left the body, is very important for complete completion!

Question: Swamiji, could you please explain how the law of cause and effect works?

It is a beautiful question. I am so happy today that all the best questions are coming up! I will answer this question layer by layer.

If you don't know the connection between cause and effect, you are confused, you are in incompletion, you are in utter unconsciousness. If you know the connection between cause and effect, you are in completion.

completing with the people in your life, even those who left the body, is very important for complete completion!

If you don't know the connection between cause and effect, but you have utter clarity, you are in the space of super-consciousness, and then what happens are called miracles!

Listen, I will repeat. If you don't know the connection between cause and effect, and you are in utter confusion, you are in unconsciousness. What happens then is called an 'accident'! If you know the connection between cause and effect, you are in completion. It means that you are complete. What happens then is 'life'. If you don't know the connection between cause and effect, but you are in utter clarity, then you are in super-consciousness. What happens then are called 'miracles'!

Listen, at the unconscious level, you will not know the connection between cause and effect. At the conscious level, you will know. Again, at the super-conscious level, you will not know the connection between cause and effect. That is why I say that the law of cause and effect makes no sense either for chandalas (beings living in very low consciousness), or for enlightened beings.

Understand, chandalas will not know the connection between the cause and the effect. Unconscious criminals do not know the cause and effect connection. If somebody has committed two hundred murders, he will not know for which murder he is being hanged! he will not know which action causes which effect.

Neither the chandaala nor the enlightened being is bound by the law of cause and effect. Because the chandala has too much cause and too much effect. The enlightened being has no cause and no effect.

I will now explain the whole science. It is my favorite subject, the reincarnation theory, the law of karma!

Recently there was an article, a very beautiful article that I read on the internet, a deep study. The study declares that eighty seven percent of Americans are Hindus!

I was shocked! How is it possible?

The study then narrates the ten major beliefs which are unique to Hinduism, a dharma-based religion. In the world, the religions are broadly categorized into two: Abrahamic religions and dharma-based religions. Christianity, Judaism, Islam and the sects from these religions are called Abrahamic religions. Vedic tradition, Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism and the cults and sects which came out of these religions are called dharma-based religions.

There are some unique concepts which belong only to Vedic tradition. The ten concepts they studied included the reincarnation theory and the theory of karma. They performed a survey on seven hundred thousand people. This is not a small number, especially in the US. In Bharat, even for our village functions (like the pournami full-moon celebrations in my hometown, Tiruvannamalai) we have seven hundred thousand pilgrims visiting! And we serve food to people in our Tiruvannamalai ashram on that day. But in the US, seven hundred thousand people is a really big number.

I read the article and the survey they have done. They have thoroughly described how they have done the research and all that. And after this thorough research, they asked people how many of them believe in these ten concepts. Because all these ten concepts are unique to Hinduism and completely contrary to Abrahamic religions! For example, believing in many births is purely from Hinduism, the Ve-

If you don't know the connection between cause and effect, you are unconscious. If you know this connection, you are in completion.

dic tradition, the dharma-based religion.

Of course, Buddhism grew out of the Vedic tradition, so it has the concept of reincarnation from. Buddhism is nothing but one sampradaya (tradition) of Hinduism. In fact, Buddha is also worshipped as one of the Hindu incarnations. Some unconscious people are claiming that Buddhism is a separate religion. This is like a few of my unconscious followers screaming 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM is a separate religion,' five hundred years after I leave the body! That does not make THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM a separate religion.

I am declaring very clearly, right now, that I will always be a part of Hinduism! I am from, for, in, with and will always be part of Hinduism! So, just because a few unconscious people claim that they are a separate religion, they don't become a separate religion! They are also part of Hinduism.

Now, you need to understand, the survey report is shocking! Eighty seven percent of Americans believe in the top ten truths of Hindu tradition! And the next shocking fact is that one-fourth of Americans do some form of Hindu spiritual practice every day! Please understand, twenty five percent of Americans do some form of Hindu practice every day - like yoga or dhyana or something which they learnt from a Hindu source. I tell you, the countries, the civilizations and societies which have started thinking and seeking can be satisfied only with Vedic tradition. Because only these truths directly satisfy the great seeking of an individual.

Understand, this law of cause and effect is one of the important theories in which eighty seven percent of Americans believe. Let me define cause and effect.

'Cause' is an action, word, deed or thought which creates a certain incompletion in you and in others, and pushes you to reap the fruits of incompletion in your life. Listen! A thought or a word or an action that happens in you, which pushes you to incompletion and makes you experience incompletion with others and drives you towards comple-

tion is called Cause. Effect' is the incompletion which is multiplying continuously, instead of moving towards completion.

I am defining cause and effect in the context of completion and incompletion, because you are going through it. I may define it in another way in a different context. Now I have defined cause and effect in the context of completion.

'Completion' is stopping the effect immediately, and rewinding the effect towards the cause and merging the effect into the cause! Stopping the effect immediately and rewinding it back to the cause, and the effect merging into the cause, is Completion.

Understand, I will define cause and effect in another context. Anything which has not made its effect completely in you is 'Cause'. Anything cause which has made its completion in you is 'Effect'!

Get it! Get it! Anything which has not caused its complete effect in you is Cause. I'm redefining it from a different context.

Here is one more context! Please listen! Any pattern which you have not completed, as long as it remains as a pattern in you, is called 'cause'. When it is expressing itself in action, it is called 'effect'.

So I've defined it in three contexts. Now I'm going to the fourth context. I'm defining cause and effect in differentdifferent ways. Whichever clicks for you, take it and start

'Cause' is an action, word, deed or thought, which creates a certain incompletion in you and in others.

working with it.

Cause is that which happens in your mamakara - inside you, in your inner image of yourself. Effect is that which happens outside you. You need to know - it is always from inside to outside!

Here are some more definitions of cause and effect.

I do not want to say, 'Whatever you give comes back to you.' No! How you cause it, that comes back to you in that same way.

Listen! If you cause something out of completion, what you get back will be a miracle! If you cause even a great charitable act out of incompletion, what you get back will be hell. Even the so-called moral, good, right acts caused out of incompletion will only have a bad effect, and not the desired effect!

In the Mahabharata epic, Karna's famous charity was not out of completion. It came out of a deep incompletion and the feeling that he was not respected. What was Karna's mamakara? 'I am a failure; I am not respected anywhere I go.' This is because he did not know his parents' names; he did not know his origins because he had been abandoned at birth.

So his mamakara from a young age was 'I am not respected!' So he was exploding with the ahankara - 'I have to be respected, I am respectable!' And what is the best way to be respected? Do charity! Even his charity was from incompletion. That is why his death itself was because of his charity. The characteristic of giving finally caused death to him!

See, in every level, he is destroyed by his acts of charity. First, Indra comes and takes away his protective shield and earrings. His kavacha and kundala were taken away by Indra. Why did Karna give it? ?He gave it, not out of completion, but out

of incompletion, thinking, 'I'm giving charity to Indra, the king of the gods!'

Then Kunti comes and asks for the boon that Karna will not send the nagastra (a deadly weapon) on her son, the prince Arjuna. Karna says, 'Alright, I am giving a boon to the Rajamata, the Queen Mother!' he gives it! Then she asks, 'You will not fight with any of my sons other than Arjuna.' Kunti knew that among her sons, only Arjuna was good enough to face Karna.

Karna says, 'Alright, I am giving this boon to the Rajamata.' And he gives the boon. Otherwise, he would have killed Bhima at one time, and the whole war would have ended. Because all the five Pandava brothers had taken the vow that if even one of them dies, all the others will walk into the fire. Karna was a fool! Even the sake of charity, a boon given out of incompletion is dangerous!

At the end of Karna's life, all the good karma that he had accumulated out of his charity comes and stands as a shield and protects him. So Lord Krishna, in order to liberate Karna, comes in the disguise of a poor brahmin and asks him to give Him as alms all the good effects of that charity.

You see, Karna might have done the charity out of incompletion, but the people who received it were complete. So all their blessings were on him. Those blessings were standing and protecting him; the 'tathastu' ('So be it') of all the people who received the charity was standing and protecting him.

If you cause something out of completion, what you get back will be a miracle.

Again, this fool Karna, knowing that Krishna himself is standing in front of him and asking for alms, thinks, 'I am giving even to Krishna!' Out of that incompletion, he gives the boon, and that is also taken away! Even the great acts like charity, when done out of incompletion, only leads to the wrong effect. Finally, because Karna no longer has the protection of his good karma, Arjuna is able to kill him.

In the same way, in the Ramayana epic, even the tapas (spiritual practices) performed by the demon-king Ravana are out of just one incompletion. What tapas Ravana did! But with just one incompletion - 'Women don't accept me'.

From a young age, he had the deep pattern that women don't accept him. This is because, when he once tried to force himself on a brahmin girl, and she cursed him - 'If you touch any woman without her permission, all your ten heads will burst and you will die'. Just out of that one pattern, he wants to be so powerful that all the women are around him and under his control. Just out of that one incompletion, he does great tapas. But finally, even those powers, even his tapas, only led to his destruction!

Anything you cause out of incompletion will have very serious wrong effects. Anything you cause out of completion will only have the effect of completion! So, the space you are in is most important for understanding the law of cause and effect!

People ask me again and again, 'Why are bad people happy and good people suffering?' The so-called good people may not be in completion when they do certain acts!

From outside it may look like it is good, but this is not so. For any receiver of his charity, Karna will look like a great charitable person. But only Karna knows that he does it out of incompletion! Or even he may not know or would have forgotten. Out of incompletion, even if you do good acts, it will only come back as bad effects. From the space of completion, anything you do comes back to you as completion!

So, in the law of cause and effect, the important thing you need to learn about is the space from which the cause is caused. Be-Cause! Because, if you don't BE and then Cause, you will be causing the effects for which you can't answer with BECAUSE! Let your being be in completion and cause anything; the effect will be completion! If your being is not in completion, the effects of whatever it causes will be such that you will not be able to give any answer about it. If somebody asks 'why', you won't be able to say 'because'. No! Be in completion so that you are causing the right effect. BE-CAUSE - Be in completion and then Cause!

Oh! It is not a tiger, it is a lion! (laughs) It is called a simhaasana – the traditional lion-throne. Listen! It means that the space you carry inside you is that of a lion, and the outside life that you cause is another lion. The person who has conquered both his inner space and outer space sits on a simhasana.

In Hindu tradition, the kings who have mastered their inner space and outer space, and the enlightened beings who cause their inner space and outer space, both sit on the simhasana – the seat of lions. It is also called as the Vyasa peetha, the seat from where the knowledge is radiated. That is why, symbolically, the statues of lions are carved on either side of this seat.

Out of incompletion, even if you do good acts, it will only come back as bad effects.

5. Question: Nithyanandam! My question is about the importance of sadhana (spiritual practice). What are the types of sadhana? Can anybody get enlightened without sadhana?

First thing: anything which moves you towards completion is sadhana.

You are asking about the types of sadhana. There are millions of types of sadhana. Anything can become a sadhana if you are doing it to achieve completion.

Even if you take a broom and go on sweeping this hall, saying, 'Until I become complete, I will continue to sweep,' that will become a sadhana!

If you sit and start blowing your nose, saying, 'Until completion, I am going to do this,' that is sadhana.

If you sit and start talking to yourself and declare, 'Until completion, I am going to do this,' that is sadhana.

If you sit and pour water on a stone continuously and say 'Until completion, I am going to do this,' that is sadhana.

Anything can become a sadhana! Whatever you do towards completion is sadhana.

Listen! What is the importance of sadhana? Anything that leads you to completion is sadhana, and anything you do with the purpose of completion is sadhana. And without the action to achieve completion, you can neither achieve completion nor enlightenment! Only with completion can you achieve enlightenment.

6. Question: Dear Swamiji, how can integrity, authenticity, responsibility & enriching lead to extraordinary powers like materialization, teleportation and leaving the body in sajeeva samadhi?

Yes, it's a nice question. You are asking how integrity, authenticity, responsibility & enriching lead to extraordinary powers, like materialization, teleportation and leaving the body in sajeeva samadhi. No, it is not even sajeeva samadhi, it is nirbeeja samadhi (seedless samadhi), the highest samadhi you can achieve with these four tattvas.

Understand, what are these powers? They are nothing but the cosmos responding to whatever you think, when you are in integrity with the cosmos. Energy responds to matter.

What is authenticity? Please understand, the decision of authenticity has to come from your very soul. Your soul has to awaken. Only then can you start living authenticity. Till then, you may be practicing a little authenticity in your yoga, or a little authenticity in your waking hours, a little nirahara. But that is not completely authentic.

When your soul wakes up, only then do you become a completely authentically authentic soul. When you start practicing authenticity, your soul wakes up. Your being wakes up. Getting it?

When you practice integrity with integrity and authenticity with authenticity, you will simply have powers like ma-

anything which moves you towards completion is sadhana (spiritual practice).

terialization, teleportation and vak-siddhi (your words turning into reality).

See, when you are so integrated with your words, your words just move the world. Your words can simply move the world. When you are completely authentic, your soul can simply express anything. Because energy and matter both listen to your soul. Matter listens to energy.

sajeeva samadhi can be called living enlightenment.

When you live these four principles even while you are alive, you completely become spiritual energy. There is no individual private corner in your inner space for you. It is life of pure integrity, authenticity, responsibility & enriching. There are no personal desires, no personal ideas and no personal moments. Yes, practicing integrity, authenticity, responsibility & enriching lead to extraordinary powers like materialization, teleportation and leaving the body in sajeeva samadhi. Just practice, you will understand how directly - immediately - it leads you to sajeeva samadhi.

Authenticity is nothing but you remembering that all powers are at your disposal. You can just possess and express any power you want.

Today I have a special webinar called 'Experience the peak possibility of your life!' to make people understand how extraordinary powers can be expressed through living in integrity, authenticity, responsibility & enriching. Self-transformation is the ultimate extraordinary power. It can be expressed by experiencing the peak possibility of your life.

So the essence of today's satsang is this: understand the principles of cause and effect. Realize that the four tattvas can create extraordinary powers in you. Enjoy your life by living these four great principles as life.

I bless you all who are sitting with us at this moment, around the world. Let you all achieve,

experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Authenticity is nothing but you remembering that all powers are at your disposal.

Death, karma And Mystical Powers

Unless you change your past, you cannot change your future. You will immediately think – 'How can I change my past?' Understand, the idea you carry about your past is, completely wrong. You are not carrying it as it happened; you are carrying it as you experienced it!

Today we will start the satsang with the subject of integrity.

Listen! By nature, God built you with integrity. Your inbuilt innate nature is integrity. That is why you feel so fulfilled, whenever you are in integrity. When there is a knot in the thought, you are ready for a failure. The first quality of non-integrity is that you will feel that everything is impossible. Everyone should know that if 'I' am possible, if 'I' can exist, then nothing is impossible! Impossible itself is 'I-ampossible!'

Lack of integrity is the first thing, followed by the diagnosis for lack of integrity. Just as there is a diagnosis for each disease, there is a diagnosis for lack of integrity. For example, if you feel giddy, it could be low BP. If you have continuous knee pain, it could be arthritis, etc. When you feel that things are continuously 'impossible' in your life, you are suffering from a disease called 'lack of integrity'. You need to

sit and complete with you.

Please listen! A situation failing, you failing and your idea of you failing - all these three are nothing but perverted integrity! Not only is there lack of integrity, but you are also integrated to your perversion. Listen! What matters, what happens in the flesh and blood? Your consciousness growing is the greatest miracle. When 'I' is possible, how then can anything be impossible?

I know that you are not convinced, now because you don't know the science. I know the science and that is why I am telling you. Your body is after all just flesh and blood. Your brain is nothing special. Many don't even have a brain! Even if they have it, is just some fat and muscle put in a confused way! But, consciousness is still being experienced! I tell you, this is the highest miracle! When that miracle is possible, how can anything be impossible?

The ideas you carry about your old failures - every idea you carry about your past - is wrong! Before changing your future, change your past. Unless you change your past, you cannot change your future. You will immediately think, 'How can I change my past? It has already happened*.'* No! The idea you carry about your past is completely wrong. You are not carrying it as it happened. You are carrying it as the edited and created version, with all the sound effects, volume effects and music effects,

Your consciousness growing is the greatest miracle. When 'I' is possible, how then can anything be impossible.

etc! Please listen! I tell you with all my experience.

Yesterday, I changed one important statement. People usually tell you, 'However much you listen, unless you can practice, you will not achieve it.' I told you, 'However much you try to practice, unless you listen, you will not achieve it!'

Now I am telling you another important statement. People usually say, 'Don't bother about the past, change the future!' I tell you - Don't bother about the future; change your past. Because your future lies in your past! Change your past. The hangover you carry about the past is the disease you carry! Unless you complete with your past, you cannot transform!

I tell you, the load of your past perverted integrity is a prison. Making whatever you think as impossible into possibility, is integrity. The idea 'impossible' itself is nothing but lack of integrity. Why will anything not be possible? Not only when you say something, but even in your very life, you cannot have this in your constitution! Please understand - the conscious constitution! The word 'impossible' cannot even exist in your conscious constitution, should not even exist in your conscious constitution.

There is nothing called 'impossible'. It is simply the weight of the past and this past logic, which is very strong.

I give you one important key. Success happens when you don't bother about your successors!

If you think that success happens when you stand as an individual, then you should stand as an organization! Others' failure should not make

you declare that you too are going to be a failure. There are millions of people who committed suicide. Why do we not try that? See, as per past records, human beings die. Then why don't we also die?

All others have their own reasons on why they tried and failed. But it basically boils down to you not having any confidence in yourself, and the people who live around you not having confidence in you. And because of this, you also do not have confidence in them. It is mutual lack of confidence and integrity!

I tell you, nothing is impossible. Nothing is impossible. Only 'nothing' is impossible! Everything is possible! You just need to carry the past without the load. You will create the inner space of possibility. I am not teaching you about positive thinking. Positive thinking is the negative thinking that can happen to you! Until you stop doing your 'positive thinking' joke, your inner laughter will not stop! So all your positive thinking is only like a comedy.

When a lion goes into a forest, it does not declare that it is the king. Everybody simply knows that it is the king. In the same way, when you are integrated, everybody just knows your positivity. The lion does not have to declare his sovereignty. It just makes everybody realize its sovereignty. In

Don't bother about the future; change your past. Because your future lies in your past!

the same way, integrity does not declare its positivity. It just makes everyone experience its positivity!

Not having the load of the past negativity, is integrity. Positivity means absence of the load of the past negativity. Then you just float in positivity! You just float in completion!

I tell you, I only need one person in every city who is a devotee, one person who lives these chatur-vedas, these four tattvas, who breathes this in and out! One person is enough, he will create an energy around him. Like the iron dust that gets settled with the magnet, all others will come and settle. In any city! Even if one person with integrity and authenticity sits in a forest, the forest becomes a city!

Look around! Do not think that because I am an incarnation, I did it. I have not used a single one of my extraordinary powers to create this organization! I have played completely inside the frame of human possibility. It means that anything which is possible for me, is also possible for you! I have not waved any magic wand. It is not that I just moved my magic wand, and this whole thing stood up! No! I played the whole game inside the human possibility. And I tell you, any one of you will be able to play this game.

Just take up to living the tattvas. If you get just a little taste of these tattvas, when you live the tattvas and see miracles, you will start thinking, *'*Wow, I tried integrity today. It clicked and it worked! Today I tried authenticity. It clicked and it worked. When I am inauthentic, it is failing!' Just this understanding, and thinking with these sacred secrets or truths, is sufficient.

Do completion continuously, and unload the effects of the past from your inner space. I tell you, continuously listen to your inner being,

and do completion continuously, again and again. Feeling powerful inside will make everything successful for you! Everything will be successful for you! But if you are feeling powerless inside, nothing will be successful! If success happens when you are feeling powerless, it is an accident, not success. It is an accidental success! When you are feeling powerful inside, no failure enters your breathing space!

There is no such thing as practicality. Practicality is the most impractical thing on planet earth! Whenever you want to say that something is impossible, you say, 'Practically, if you see...!' I tell you, there is no such thing as practicality. In the name of practicality, you make yourself impractical and impossible.

The most practical thing for you is to dig a pit, get into it and bury yourself - that is the most practical thing!

The idea of practicality is suicidal, because it comes from the past. Don't live for even one more day, if you have not made something impractical as practical today! See, there are one thousand eyes, two eyes on your body and nine hundred and ninety eight eyes on others' bodies around you. Whatever looks impractical to those one thousand eyes, whatever you and the others understand as impractical, make it practical every day! If not,

Not having the load of the past negativity, is integrity. Then you just float in positivity! you just float in completion!

don't live, it is better to pack up!

This happens only when you don't carry the load of the past. That is, when you are in completion! So continuously complete, complete and complete. When you start the something out of this completion, out of your authenticity, you will naturally attract authentic people. Any human being has both authenticity and inauthenticity. If you behave authentically, you will get an authentic response from the same person. Complete both with your distant past (which is your root patterns from childhood) and with your recent past (which are your non-integrated moments in your day-to-day living of the past few hours). Both contribute to incompletion in your life.

I have the resource, because I am the real source! When you understand that you are the real source, that is the only resource you need! I tell you, when anybody becomes authentic, their department never lacks volunteers. There is always staff or volunteers for that department. Only when you lack integrity and authenticity, people do not feel enriched by you. Then why will they come to serve? In every city, I only need one person who is authentic and integrated!

Success or failure is first decided by you, inside you, and then expressed by you, outside you. You make the balloon and you blow the balloon. So after the balloon is made, don't blame the shape! You blew it and you made the shape. You cannot say, I expected a heart shape, but it came out like my tummy! Many times, you want to make things to look like anahata (heart) but they look like manipuraka (stomach). Then you say, 'No, no! I made this balloon to look like anahata, but it looks like manipuraka, like my tummy!'

Every successful man will be integrated and authentic, at least in

the dimension in which he is successful. If he is successful in business, he has to have integrity and authenticity in that. If he is successful in relationships, he has to have integrity and authenticity in that. Make it very clear that you are the source.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss - 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Success or failure is first decided by you, inside you, and then expressed by you, outside you!

The whole time is your time. That is the first right cognition you need to have. Whatever has passed is not your time. It has no power over you; it has no influence over you. Only the future is your time!

Today, I will expand on how the kundalini awakening can help you create the reality of your choice.

Human beings are only programmed for the right future that they want to build. They are not given the power to correct the past. Please listen! You are only empowered to build the future, as you want it. You are not empowered to correct the past. So, the more and more you brood over the past, the more suffering you will have! You are only empowered to build the future - which has no connection with the past, which has nothing to do with the past!

As long as you believe that your past has the capacity to influence your future, you are in delusion! Human beings are hardwired to build the future as they want it, but they have no capacity to correct the past. All the struggle you put in to correct the past will only be a failure!

You have no power to correct your past. You only have the power to build your future. The more and more you think about the past, the more and more powerless you will be!

You are hypnotized into believing that your past has an influence over your future. No!

Even if somebody was a sinner until this moment, the next moment he can become a saint! Even if somebody was a saint until this moment, the next moment he can become a sinner! That is the beauty of Mahakala – Time!

Your cognition about you and about life depends on what you think as your time. Usually, you think of hundred years as your time. So, you think of whatever has passed, as your time, and whatever is going to come, as your time. This is completely wrong! Neither is your life hundred years, nor is the passed time your time. Only the time that is going to come – the future – this is your time.

The whole time is your time. That is the first right cognition you need to have. Second, whatever has passed is not your time; it has no power over you; it has no influence over you. Third, only the future is your time.

Your delusion, that the time spent while you are in your body is your time, is wrong! It is not your time; it was not your time. It was perceived by you with your broken, beaten and abused cognition! Your cognition is not complete cognition, till integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching becomes the basis of your cognition. Until then, your cognition is nothing but confusion! You can never develop your life, as long as you think that whatever has happened in the past, as perceived

by you as the past, is yours. No!

Not owning what you cannot own and owning what you can own, is Life. Unfortunately, you try to own what you cannot own, and not own what you are supposed to own! You are supposed to own your future time, but you do not own it. You do not take the responsibility for it; you do not take the ownership for it. You cannot own your past, yet you continuously try to own it!

This is because your mind teaches you that the 'known' is right! No! Freedom from the known is the real freedom. Just because the past is known, don't think that you can own it!

You are supposed to own your future! You are the owner of your future! You should take ownership for your future. But look in, ninety percent of your thoughts are all about the past! When I see a person, I can tell based on his eyes and the expression of his eyes, whether he is lost in the past or looking towards the future. The eyes which have no power mean that he is lost in the past!

You don't take ownership of that for which you are supposed to be the owner, which you are supposed to own. Your energy does not even flow towards it. And the things which you cannot own, you go on trying to own it, own it and own it – like your past!

Your cognition is not complete cognition, till integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching becomes the basis Until then, it is nothing but confusion!

You might have lived with her for fifty years. She might have been your first and last love. You might have had the most romantic life with her. But even then, you cannot keep her dead body with you for more than a few hours. This is exactly the way you need to behave with your past!

Wake up! You might have lived with her for years. She fulfilled all your dreams. You had a romantic relationship and she was part of you. You had an amazing life and loved living together. She was your first and last love. BUT, just because she was your beloved, don't forget the truth that you cannot keep her dead body! Once she is dead, she is dead! You have to bury her body! It is time you bury her body! It is time to give farewell to her!

You are constantly trying to brood over your failures. When you try to brood over your failures, you empower your failures. You have already planned that your future is going to be a failure! One of the biggest delusions that human beings suffer from is that the future comes out of the past. I tell you - the future comes 'OUT' of the past, not 'OUT OF' the past! Future comes 'OUT' of the past, not 'OUT OF' the past!

That is why when you take sannyas, you just break from the past! If you are still brooding over the failures of your past, sannyas has not yet happened in you. The space of sannyas is yet to happen in you!

You trying to own the past is abuse to Mahakala (the Lord of Time)! Not owning your future is like shutting your door to Mahakala. Owning your future means receiving Mahakala, receiving Kalabhairava (the Lord of time). Brooding over your past is like living with your dead body, not looking at the life possibility, not looking at the possibility of life!

Decide, that you will not abuse Kalabhairava any more by brooding over the past. You will get ready and will welcome and receive Kalabhairava, with responsibility and ownership. Take the ownership for your future. If you take the ownership for your future, your eyes will be shining and bright, expecting the future, ready to receive it, planning for it, taking ownership for it and owning it!

Take ownership for your future. Let your mind think about your future with responsibility. Kalabhairava will bless you!

By nature, you are hardwired to move towards your future. The only mistake you do is that you move without responsibility. Just move with responsibility, you will be on the right track and move towards enlightenment! It's only because you moved towards your future without responsibility that you have failed with so many fantasies! Then the failures of your fantasies occupy your inner space so much, that you are lost in the past and the guilt of the past! When you don't move towards the future with responsibility, it will be the same past, filled with guilt, like wasted pages of your history, like rotten pages of your bio-memory, as rotten pages of your biography!

I tell you, your smile and laughter is in taking ownership of the future! Your long face is lost in trying to own your dead past! The smile and the

You are hardwired to move towards your future. Just move with responsibility, you will be on the right track and move towards enlightenment!

laughter in your face look at the possibility and the future. A long face shows that you are drowned in the past! Whenever your face has a smile and laughter, your consciousness - your cognition, is moving towards the future. The possibility of life is reminded to you. The possibility that your best possibilities are yet to come, is reminded to you.

People who hold on to the past are trying to hold on to the back leg of Kalabhairava. Hold on to the leg of Kalabhairava that is going forward. Do not hold on to the leg of Kalabhairava which is at the back, and try to pull him! He is not going to wait for you even if you try to pull him! He will just kick you and walk! Hold on to the leg which is going forward. He will bless you and take you forward! Do not hold on to the leg which is back, because he is not going to be stuck in the past like you!

When you cognize time, when you cognize life, do not commit the crime of holding on to the past, or trying to own the past. If you try to own the past, you are trying to keep the dead body of your beloved! However beautiful a life you had, keeping the photographs are okay, but keeping the dead body is not okay! Even for the most beautiful and romantic life that you had with your beloved, keeping photographs is okay, you can own them. But you cannot try to own the dead body. Owning the dead body will only destroy you! If you own twenty dead bodies around you like this, tell me what will happen to you? Tell me, what will happen to you? You will simply be dead! You will be dead. You will be dead!

Sit and design your future, and take responsibility for it. When you own your past, Kalabhairava's compassion or sympathy will not be on you. Because you decide to pull Him back! He will only show anger towards you! Do not try to own your past. Instead, plan your future with responsibility.

Just as the army tanker has teeth in its wheels, and leaves its footprint when it goes on the road, in the same way, you leave the imprint of the guilt from your past, when you plan your future with fantasy, without responsibility.

Listen! When you take responsibility, it is no more a fantasy. But when you don't take responsibility, it is a fantasy. When you plan for your future without responsibility, you leave the imprint of the guilt from your past!

But if you see the road rollers, when they roll on the road, they make the road strong. Road rollers are like planning for the future, with responsibility. When you plan for the future with responsibility, you are like a road roller. You strengthen the road and make it smooth. If you plan for your future without responsibility, you are like an army tanker - only you can go, and after that nobody can go!

Most of the time, your mind is engaged in your past, brooding over your past. Whenever you give rest to you, you are with your past, hugging the dead body!! I tell you, if you are constantly brooding over your past, you are doing the same thing – hugging a dead body!

Your past has no future, don't waste your life with it. The more you realize that your past has no power over your future, the more you are free.

Your past has no future, don't waste your life with it. The more you realize this, the more you are free!

When J.Krishnamurti says that freedom from the known is the ultimate freedom, this is what he means. Freedom from your past is the ultimate freedom!

You need to know the truth. You need to know the truth! Having the wrong emotion towards the future will destroy it. You need responsibility towards your future, not fear.

Understand, when you take responsibility towards your future, you neither have fear nor have greed. When you take responsibility towards your future, you live with integrity, authenticity and responsibility. Your kundalini energy flows towards building your future. Your cognition IS your kundalini energy. If it is fully engaged in your past, you are dead, building the dead as your future! If you are responsible towards your future, you will neither have fear to think about it, nor have a fantasy to drool over it.

This is the essence of what I want to tell you today. Let you not waste your inner space by brooding over the past. Let you enter responsibly into your future and plan for your future by taking responsibility. Your past has no future and your future has no past!

With integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, declare today. Declare NOW that you will respect Kalabhairava in the future. From this moment, you will not abuse Kalabhairava by brooding over the past, which is not your property. You will only responsibly plan for your future, which is your 'possibility'.

Neither the past nor the future is yours. But, the future is your 'possibility', so you have the right to think about it with responsibility. If you take responsibility for the future, it is possibility. If not, it is just

probability. Anything which is probability is not your property.

The fear of the past destroys your future. When you take the responsibility of your past, you will not have both - fear or greed. Learn this one lesson - not to engage with your past, not to be deluded with your past.

When you bring integrity, you are purified from the dead body of your past. When you bring authenticity in your thinking, your whole energy is pushed towards the future. When you bring responsibility into your thinking, your future is getting created. And when you enrich yourself and others, the best possible future for you is happening!

Every moment that you brood over the past, you are moving closer towards death. Listen! That is why when the elders age, and they know that they do not have a future, they are so filled with the past! But when they are so filled with their past, they become useless to others and to themselves.

Yesterday, somebody gave me the news that a former celebrity had passed away. When I heard the news, I asked, 'Oh, was she still alive?!' That's all I asked! What does that mean? It means that for the last part of her life, she was not active or alive; she was not directly useful to the society. I tell you, the only thing that I will not want in my

Having the wrong emotion towards the future will destroy it. You need responsibility towards your future, not fear!

life is people asking this question when I leave the body. 'Oh! Was he still alive?' As long as I am alive, people should know that I am alive! It means that I am active, alive, kicking around and enriching people! If you are not enriching people, people will naturally ask when you die. 'Was he still alive?' 'Was she still alive?'

Your departure should not be sudden news, it should be part of the daily news! Your departure should be the end of the daily news, not sudden news! It means that there should not be any gap between your retirement from society and your departure from the world. And I tell you, even after retiring from the body, I am not going to retire from humanity! That is my commitment with humanity. Even after departure, I am not going to depart from humanity!

Whatever it may take, decide to build your cognition towards your future. It usually takes twenty-one days to give a break for 'you', burn the dead body of your past, and put you towards the future. That is what I do, in the 'Inner-Awakening' program. People ask me, 'Why twenty-one days?' This is the answer - because it takes twenty one days for you to give a break from your past. It takes twenty one days to liberate you from your past and burn your past.

This is because you are so tightly hugging your past! 'No! My beloved! Don't take it away from me! My beloved! My beloved! My beloved! My beloved! Life! Life! Life! I lived with her for thirty years – forty years – fifty years! You don't know where we went together! What we did together! How can you take it away?' Somebody has to forcibly take your past away, to liberate you and help you to take your future!

Even if it is Sati and Shiva, you cannot carry the dead body! Understand, even if it is Sati and Shiva, the dead body has to be burnt. The dead

body has to be dropped, your past has to be dropped, and you have to be pushed into the future! Only then can Parvati happen. Only then can Meenakshi happen. If you are carrying the dead body of Sati, the possibility of Parvati is stopped, the manifestation of Meenakshi is deprived! Give farewell to Sati's body! Allow the possibility of Parvathi. Manifest Meenakshi!

When we have Meenakshi Brahmotsavam at our ashram temple, that time will be very powerful, unique and extraordinary. The 'sathya' we experienced this time during Meenakshi Brahmotsavam was to 'manifest Meenakshi!'

There is only one thing that I ask all of you to do today. Take the vow now, by raising your hand. 'With integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, I drop my past, which is dead, and decide to live my future with responsibility and enriching!'

Close your eyes and declare – 'I, with integrity, authenticity, responsibility, enriching myself and others, declare: I drop the past which is dead. I give a farewell to my past, a decent burial to my past. I am a new consciousness, a new being, living with responsibility, and enriching myself and others in the future.'

Tathaasthu , so be it!

Now live this declaration. This is the essence today.

Just declare, 'I drop the past, which is dead. I am a new consciousness, a new being, living with responsibility, and enriching myself and others in the future!'

Only when you want to responsibly work on your future, do you start listening. The dead past never lets you listen. The past by its very nature does not have life. And if you try to continuously indulge in the past, it also swallows the future!

I will expand on the relationship between your past, present and future, and the reality of your life. I will expand on how it can be handled and altered with these four principles, these four tattvas of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching.

The whole spiritual life starts from listening. When you are completely drowned inside your past, when your past is sitting on you as a dead weight, you will never be able to listen. Only when you want to responsibly work on your future do you start listening. The dead past never lets you listen. The past by its very nature does not have life, and if you try to continuously indulge in the past, it also swallows the future!

Whether you like it or not, want it or not, by the very way in which you are hardwired, you will hold only yourself as responsible for your life. Listen! You will hold only yourself as responsible for your life. Nobody

else can be responsible. Only you are responsible for your life!

When you iron out your inner space with integrity, the first thing that integrity will do to you is remove all the negative weeds that you constantly cherish, which are rooted in your past. Negativity needs the past evidence as support, to survive. Negativity cannot be based in the future.

Are you clear? How many of you cognize that negativity can be rooted only in the past? So when the weeding happens by integrity, you are free from the past. Listen! All your negative thinking, fears, everything is rooted in past! It is rooted in the past. If you look a little deep, you will understand that when you become aware of your thinking, when you become integrated with your thinking, your past no more has the power over your future or over your inner space.

For example, if you think that you will fail in your examination or in your business, then that negative thought can become strong only if your past experiences are constantly reminding you of this and supporting your cognition. Listen! Negativity cannot grow in your inner space, it cannot have power over your inner space, it cannot have strength on your inner space, if your past memories are not continuously supplied as evidence!

When you become integrated, the first thing you will understand is that your past failures are not failures. Your failures do not make YOU a failure! It is not the failure itself that is the problem, but the number of times you remember your failure that is the real problem. It is like this - you go on a vacation only for one or two days and come back. But the number of days you spend, to show those photographs to everyone and brood over them, the number of days you spend seeing

those photographs and drooling over them, and the amount of importance you bring to those memories - this is what makes the vacation too big! I have even seen people drooling over their marriage albums! No, really!

Life is just moving. But your photographic memories and you holding on to those memories is where the problem starts! That is where the problem starts! Lack of integrity and brooding over your past are one and the same. The more your past occupies your inner space, the more you will not have integrity.

Negativity has its roots only in your past. If you don't remember your past again and again and again, the first thing that will happen to you is that you will be free from your past and integrated in your thinking. Your inner space will be available for your responsible future, or future responsibility. When you become authentic, you will forget that you even had a past. Listen! It is not just ordinary forgetting, it is forgetting because it is even wiped off from your inner space, because it is no more the past of your inner space!

Decide to be authentic from now. Constantly be authentic. You will see that so much, so much can be done to your inner space. It is your past memories and your past ideas about your failure that do not allow you to be authentic. I tell you,

All your negativity is rooted in the past! When you become integrated with your thinking, your past no more has the power over your future or over your inner space!

sometimes even without failure, even your fears about failure make you a failure! Even without failure, your fear about failure makes you feel as a failure. This kind of fear-of-failure and the past is responsible for making you inauthentic.

Why do you become inauthentic? Because your past very powerfully tells you that you can't be a hero! Your past is the permanent comedian staying inside you, laughing at you and making you a comedian instead of a hero! You always want to be a hero, but end up being a comedian because of this. Even if you end up being a villain, it is okay. But do not end up being a comedian!

Many times, you end up being a comedian because your inner space constantly makes fun of you, quoting or misquoting you, saying, 'I know you, you are not going to be successful , why are you unnecessarily struggling?'

Your past stays inside you and makes you a comedian instead of a hero. Listen! It is your past failures constantly hanging on you that make you inauthentic. They do not let you take further steps. A man who is not tired of his own past is enlightened! The day you start living without your past making you tired, you are a jeevan mukta. If your past cannot make you inauthentic, you are a jeevan mukta!

I tell you, you are responsible for anything. If something is not happening outside, then the right knowledge and interest are not happening inside. 'sat' and 'chit' – sat is the knowledge, chit is the interest, ananda is the happening. If sat and chit happen in you, life will happen to you! If money is not happening around you, please be very clear that you either do not have knowledge or you do not have interest. One of these two will be missing. You may have interest, but you may not have

knowledge. So, you are responsible for anything!

When you do not take the responsibility for the knowledge or the interest, however much you try or wait for it, it does not happen in your life! Unless the knowledge and interest happens in your life, nothing can become a reality in your life. Only when your inner space becomes responsible for the knowledge and the interest, you will see that anything becomes a reality in you! It becomes a reality in you!

Use this morning 'satsang' time for intense listening! The way I speak itself - I will give you enough time for intranalyzing also.

Sometimes, people ask me, 'Swamiji, why are you sometimes so forceful, powerful, loud and continuous, like a river in the forest, a wild river? And sometimes, you are slow and mild, with lots of gaps?' Listen! If the principle I am talking about needs intranalyzing, I give you time for intranalyzing, the space for intra-analyzing. If you just need to drink it, dive in it and disappear in it, I pour that on you like Ganga, like a wild forest river!

I am not tired of my own past. That is why I can repeat the same principles any number of times, without changing a word, without changing the tone, for any number of classes! When you are not

Why do you become inauthentic? Because your past very powerfully tells you that you can't be a hero! If your past cannot make you inauthentic, you are a jeevan mukta!

tired of your own past, you are a jeevan mukta.

Listen! If I am giving a gap and talking very slowly, it means that the principles I am talking about need intranalyzing. Intranalyzing is analyzing for the purpose of internalizing! Analyze this truth for the purpose of internalizing. You are listening to these truths and internalizing these truths. Try to apply these truths in you during the whole day, because your thinking needs to become new completely. The cognitive shift needs to happen in you.

The cognitive shift happening in you is the first step of transformation. Just like you need to maintain your body, you also need to maintain your cognition. Your cognition needs to be purified every day. Your cognition needs to be purified every day! Even if it is a gold vessel, it needs to be polished every day. Otherwise, it will lose its shine. Whether it is copper, silver or gold, it needs to be polished every day!

The essence of what I wanted to teach you today is this. Only if the load of your past is reduced on you, you can practice integrity and authenticity. Only if you practice integrity and authenticity, the load of the past will reduce in your thinking. It is like one depends on the other. So start practicing integrity and authenticity, and start reducing the load of your past, on your inner space. Do both simultaneously. One will help the other.

Internalize! Internalize! Internalize! Sometimes the statements I am making are loaded with layers of meaning. Only when you internalize them will you understand.

Only when the cognitive shift happens, life is experienced in you. Life starts in you and you become a being, a real being!

When you practice integrity, do not allow your past to come and interfere. When you practice authenticity, do not allow your past to come and pull you down. When you practice responsibility, do not allow your past to upset you. When you practice enriching, do not allow your past to distract you! Whether it is your lack of integrity, your inauthenticity, your irresponsibility or nonenrichment, the only enemy, the only reason is your past, waiting to argue, waiting to debunk anything that you newly propose, anything you want to newly achieve. Your past memory does not allow any new leaf to flower!

The past sits on you as dead weight! Understand, what I am talking is the most practical principle of life. Every moment, the load of your past does not allow you to progress. The load of your past is a huge chain tied to your leg with a big iron ball! How long can you drag and move? Even your breathing becomes shallow when you are drowned in the past. Your memory becomes dull when you are drowned in the past. Your awareness falls into the lowest frequency, when you are drowned in the past. Only when you become responsible for your future - listen, only when you become responsible for your future, your life starts! Only then does real integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching start happening!

Every moment, the load of your past does not allow you to progress. Only when you become responsible for your future does your life start!

You can see that any responsible space in society needs a high level of integrity. Any responsible place in society needs a high level of authenticity. That is why I tell you, the very world flows with these four principles of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. That is why leaders and politicians are always questioned, even if they miss one word! A common man is not questioned if he talks one thing today and another thing tomorrow. A joker is never questioned if he talks one thing today and another thing tomorrow! But a hero will be questioned if he talks one thing today and another thing tomorrow. Because, a hero has to be with the highest integrity! A leader will be questioned if he does not continuously develop himself, his capabilities and his deliverables. If somebody starts his political career as an MLA, and continues to be an MLA for next fifty years, people will question him, 'Where is your authenticity?'

Continuously practice integrity and authenticity. Do not allow yourself to be brood over your past. You cannot do anything with your past! You are only capable of taking responsibility for your future!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss - 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Part 13: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!_English_part_13.md

Bring integrity into everything. When you make the intention, 'Let the world be blissful,' the first thing that happens is that your world becomes blissful! It goes on expanding at the subtle level, and the benefit is for you; you are the first person whose world becomes blissful.

<Swamiji talks to the sannyasis, sannyasinis and rishis of the THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM order on the swasti mantra, which is chanted every morning to bless and heal the world.>

The swasti mantra is a powerful chant to bless and heal the world. You don't know the power of your word. Because you don't respect the word, you don't know its power. When you recite the swasti mantra, you bless the whole world. And you have the responsibility to restore your integrity which blesses the world. You are responsible and you have the right, both. You can't say that you take the right but not the responsibility for the world. No! By taking the kaavi cloth (initiation into monastic life), you have already taken the responsibility.

The way in which you experience miracles begins with the swasti mantra. This mantra constantly makes the cosmos respond to you in a completely supporting way. Chant the swasti mantra sincerely.

Listen! When you do good to the world, the world does good to you. Chant the swasti mantra with all your heart and declare, 'Let the world have auspiciousness!' When so many people who practice integrity declare this together, imagine what its power will be!

Just this swasti mantra can be a powerful completion for whatever wounds you received from society and other people. The swasti mantra is a completion declaration – 'I complete with the world, and I declare - let the world be auspicious. Let all good things happen to the world.'

Bring integrity into everything. When you make the intention, 'Let the world be blissful,' the first thing that happens is that your world becomes blissful! It goes on expanding at the subtle level, and the benefit is for you; you are the first person whose world becomes blissful.

Anger is the acid that destroys the container more than the object on which it is poured. The swasti mantra heals anger. It completely seals and protects your container, and you become the pure space from which continuous completion functions. As long as you live the four tattvas, life happens through you. When you slack, 'Yogo nashta parantapaha' happens. It means that yoga is lost in course of time. This is what happens when you start to lack integrity or fall into irresponsibility and selfishness.

The swasti mantra is a completion declaration – 'I complete with the world, and I declare - let the world be auspicious. Let all good things happen to the world!

When you live with integrity, weeding out your own negativities, blessing the world literally becomes a reality. Listen. By chanting the swasti mantra, you can bring rain. If you chant the swasti mantra every day, your company will prosper. Because you carry the auspicious aura in you, when you go and sit in the CEO's chair, the whole company will have that ambience. Wherever you go, you are going to be carrying this auspiciousness, radiating it. You will be a moving auspiciousness.

I tell you my anyakara about all my devotees. Live auspiciousness. Integrity brings auspiciousness to you. It reminds you to weed out all the negativities and bring auspiciousness. It gives you the power to initiate people. If you are living in integrity, your classes are not just teachings, they become initiation. People who live these four tattvas are not just talking about these four tattvas; they are not just teaching, they are initiating! It will bring so much auspiciousness to them.

Understand - when the swasti mantra is chanted, all the people who are sitting with us are connected, and we vibrate with the highest cosmic auspiciousness of Shiva, in the highest frequency of Shiva. If you are integrated with pada pooja, miracles should continuously happen in your life. You will not lack wealth, because the swasti mantra is such a powerful mantra. When you bless the world with integrity, the world blesses you with integrity.

Listen! Integrity is not just social morality or a social utility. It is not just that if you are integrated, you become good, and society treats you good. No! It is more than that. If you are integrated, the cosmos treats you good!

Listen: no technique, no method, no technology, no meditation and no kriya will work for you unless you bring integrity into you. Only

with integrity will any technique, any kriya, any spiritual teaching, any life, start happening in you. Even constantly digging out the root pattern, which makes you powerless and makes you struggle, can happen only with integrity.

How many of you tried with integrity the process I gave you yesterday - the process of weeding out the self-fulfilling negative prophecies? The negative self-fulfilling prophecies are the biggest enemies which you carry in you.

Integrity brings vak-siddhi to you. Integrity brings deep sleep to you. Integrity makes you conquer sleep. Anybody who wants to do gudakesha samyama – the process to conquer sleep - please listen. You have to start practicing integrity. Sleep is nothing but the rest you need to give for your tired inner chattering. With integrity, your inner chattering never becomes tired. How many of you are tired with your own inner chatter? Bring integrity, the tiredness will disappear, the boredom will disappear and the conflicts will disappear.

Listen. All of you listen. I will be taking up the Coimbatore satsang centre's conflict resolution today, to solve the conflicts that they have, to start the annalaya.

Only when you take up a common conflict in the sangha will all of you look at what conflicts you

Sleep is nothing but the rest you need to give for your tired inner chattering. Bring integrity - the tiredness, boredom and conflicts will disappear!

have inside. Only then will you start healing it, and only then will enlightenment start in you. If you don't take up a common project, you will never realize the conflicts that you have inside you. Even conflictresolution is nothing but constantly reminding yourself about these four tattvas. It will keep re-establishing you in these four tattvas, and reminding you to live these tattvas.

Bring integrity into every step. Every step! Nothing else is going to help you. There is no shortcut; this is the shortest cut!

Bring integrity, bring authenticity; they have no replacement. They have no substitute. Integrity and authenticity have no substitute. Whether you live a spiritual life or a regular life, integrity and authenticity form the basis for life!

Authenticity can be practiced; we can allow some time as a practice period. But integrity has no practice period! It is straightforward. Start NOW! And it does not need anything either; you just have to start living it.

If man without integrity says he is surrendering, that word can't be believed. How can you believe it? If there is no integrity, you are not even a human being! Then how to live with people? Integrity brings the basic lessons to life. Integrity brings basic intelligence to your biomemory.

Listen: from today, I want all the participants of the nirahara samyama (spiritual process to go beyond solid food) to take up the next practice. The whole day, you will visualize your muscles and bio-memory functioning like the sacred banyan tree, directly producing energy from space. You will constantly cognize that your muscles and bio-memory

are directly producing energy from space.

But any cognition you have, any visualization you practice and any meditation you do will be fruitful only if you practice integrity, not otherwise! If there is no integrity, even if you sit under the banyan tree the whole day and visualize that you are the banyan tree, you will only remain an ordinary body. Nothing will happen! It is only with integrity that your cognition becomes a reality! Pull these tattvas into your life. Don't expect them to pull you. Make these tattvas part of your life.

Bring integrity. Go on scanning your inner space for integrity. Any compromise, any postponing, any attitude that 'it is okay' is going to destroy you. Life is total, not partial. Don't think that only some part of you needs to be integrated, while other parts need not be integrated. You cannot say that you will have a healthy meal in the morning, but a cup of poison in the evening!

Listen! Life is total, not partial. There is no other solution than living integrity. Even if you give a technique to somebody, it will not work for that person if that person is not in integrity. Without integrity, authenticity and responsibility, nothing is going to work. It is to teach responsibility that this sangha exists, it is to radiate authenticity that this sangha exists, it is to take responsibility for the world that this sangha exists. This means taking

Life is total, not partial. Go on scanning your inner space for integrity. Any compromise, any postponing, any attitude that 'it is okay' is going to destroy you!

responsibility for teaching integrity and authenticity to the world. This sangha is for nothing but taking the responsibility of teaching integrity and authenticity to the world.

Enriching itself is nothing but enriching yourself and others with integrity and authenticity.

So everything boils down to integrity and authenticity. Integrity and authenticity are the core messages. Responsibility is nothing but teaching integrity and authenticity to the world. Enriching is enriching you and others with all these three.

Integrity is the foundation, authenticity is the building, responsibility is the kalasha and enriching is the flag.

I am committing with you all that I am going to continuously talk about these principles, and make sure that at least a critical mass starts living it. I have decided that I am not going to give up on me and others. Till the end, I will sing the same song of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching! But I am going to make it! I am going to make human beings!

I bless you all who are sitting with us at this moment around the world! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Listen! It is the power of completion that empowers you to face the worst eventualities you have. Preparation for the worst eventualities mentally strengthens your belief in failure, the negative commitment you gave to yourself.

You need to understand an important truth about your inner and outer identities, your mamakara and ahankara. When your ahankara and mamakara merge with each other, you will be able to fulfill others' anyakara also.

When the mamakara is separate, the ahankara is wrong. But when the mamakara supports it, it is no more ahankara, it is your very being! You can't call ahankara as ahankara if mamakara is supporting it. As long as mamakara and ahankara are separate, you can use the word ahankara – ego - which is wrong. But the moment the mamakara supports the ahankara, they become one with each other. It is no more ego, it is e-Go! And it is enlightening, it is eN-Go! Strengthen your mamakara again and again with the qualities you project as ahankara. Strengthen your ahankara by using all the thinking power that mamakara has.

Listen! Ahankara has expression-power and mamakara has experiencepower. When there is lack of integrity, both of them are separate. When you integrate them, both of them are one and the same! Your

mamakara has experience-power, experiencing what you think and feel as you. Your ahankara has expression-power, declaring yourself, asserting yourself. Integrate both of them. Whatever you project or declare as you, you will become that!

Infuse all the qualities of ahankara - what you project as you - into your mamakara – what you feel as you. If you are declaring to the world that you are strong and intelligent, make that as your mamakara. If some part of you is not accepting that, read it out with integrity. That is practicing integrity! Aligning your mamakara to ahankara is practicing integrity. Aligning your ahankara to anyakara is taking responsibility. Aligning your mamakara (what you feel as you) to your ahankara (what you project as you) is integrity. Because what you project as you will always be stronger and much more than what you think as you!

What is the only obstruction for this alignment, for this communion? Your negative patterns! For example, you always project yourself as strong, but you don't believe it inside because of your lack of integrity. Now, complete with all the negative commitments you have given to yourself, like 'I am weak', or 'I am a failure'. Complete with all that. Tell yourself, 'No! I am not going to honor the negative commitments I have given to myself, that I am a failure or that I am wrong. I am declaring and committing to myself that I am

Ahankara has expression power and mamakara has experience power. When you integrate both of them, they are the same and you are able to fulfill others' anyakara!

a winner. I am a success. I am Shiva - mangalatva (auspiciousness).'

It is very unfortunate, but vedantis carry a strong pattern that they should be ready to accept failure, because failure is a part of life. No! Then you are constantly giving a commitment to you that there is going to be failure. Expectation of failure! Listen! You always internally prepare yourself for facing any failure. Am I right? That does not need to strengthen, to believe that you are a failure. It does not need to strengthen! Listen! How many of you have the habit of preparing yourself for the eventualities of failure? When you prepare, you usually remind yourself of the worst situations, the worst possibilities, and then prepare tools and weapons to handle it. But unfortunately, whenever you remember the worst possibilities, you give that as a commitment to you!

Now have awareness inside. Listen. You have never handled the worst possibilities because of preparation. You always handled the worst possibilities, because of your completion! If you are in the space of completion, you face the worst possibilities in completion and win!

You have never handled the worst possibilities because of your preparation. However much you prepare, when the eventuality comes up, you collapse. Even with all the preparation, you collapse when the eventuality comes up. How many of you cognize this? You prepare for the worst fire accident, but an earthquake happens instead! Then you start preparing for the earthquake, and a flood happens. You get ready with all the insurance papers for the flood, and the insurance agency goes bankrupt!

Listen: it is the power of completion that empowers you to face the worst eventualities. How many of you cognize what I am saying?

Preparation for the worst eventualities mentally strengthens your belief in failure; it is the negative commitment you gave to yourself that the worst eventualities are going to happen. How many of you cognize this now?

Are you successful in handling any eventualities by preparation? How many of feel that you are not successful? So, from today, you will not mentally prepare yourself for the worst eventualities. You will spend all your energy removing the weed of the worst eventuality from your inner space. Remove the belief that the worst eventuality will happen. Getting it?

Understand, if there is going to be any worst eventuality at all, it will always be in a way that you can never imagine. Clear? So completion is your shield, not preparation. The fort you build will not save you from death, but enlightenment will! But you go on building the fort, and Yama (god of Death) just comes, picks you up and takes you away!

There is a beautiful story about King Parikshit from the holy epic called 'Mahabharata'. Parikshit is like our grandfather, because he was the grandfather of King Bharata, after whom our country is named. King Parikshit was given a curse that he will be bitten by a snake and would die within seven days. He started making all the

Do not mentally prepare yourself for the worst eventualities. Remove the belief that the worst eventuality will happen. Completion is your shield, not preparation!

preparations to face this worst eventuality. He even built a huge fort in the center of the ocean overnight! But fortunately, he had wise people around him, and he had the patience to listen to these wise people.

Parikshit's rajaguru (royal sage and advisor ) Shukabrahma told him, 'Preparing for the worst eventuality is not the foolproof way to escape from it! Instead, be ready with completion.'

Parikshit listened to his master. Finally, all his preparations for the worst eventuality failed. The snake Takshaka came and bit him. But, because of his intelligence, Parikshit was prepared with completion, by listening to the story of Bhagavata (the story of Lord Krishna). This saved him and he became enlightened. He was liberated.

I tell you, even if he had done only completion, without preparing for the worst eventuality, he would have been saved. Even death would not have happened. He could have even avoided death. But he was doing both preparation and completion, so his inner space was not completely with completion. I tell you, whenever you prepare for the worst eventualities, you give negative commitments to you which weaken you and make you powerless.

So from today, let all of us commit that there will no more be a question of constant mental preparation for the worst eventualities, thereby strengthening the negative prophecies. There will only be completion, completion, completion and power - feeling powerful to face anything, without imagining what may come or what may not come. How many of you are ready to commit? Great! This is an important click.

Q&A

1. A devotee has a question: 'Is Swamiji saying that we only plan for successful outcomes, rather than also being ready for any unknown eventuality?'

Yes. I am very clear. Just plan for successful outcomes, nothing else! With your whole ahankara and mamakara, with integrity, you will have only successful outcomes. Just stand by it, just stand by it. Just stand by it. There are no ifs or buts! Life has no ifs or buts. But our fear does not even allow us to think that there is a space where there are no ifs or buts! This space of no ifs or buts is enlightenment!

• G All IFs are out of Swadishtana chakra.
• G All BUTs are from Muladhara chakra.
• G All NOs are from Manipuraka chakra.
• G All MAYs are also from Manipuraka.

Do not prepare for the worst eventualities. You will only strengthen the negative commitment you give to yourself that the worst eventuality is going to happen. Even if you need to prepare, tell yourself, 'I am N O T giving the negative commitment to me that the worst eventuality is going to happen'.

Life has no ifs or buts. The space of no ifs or buts is enlightenment!

Consciously complete every time, again and again. Listen. Understand. Listen. Consciously complete with yourself, 'Even if I am preparing for it, even in the deepest unconscious part of me, subconscious part of me, indirectly or directly, I am not committing with me. I am not going to believe, I am not committing that this negativity is going to happen to me, that this negativity will be made to happen in my life. I am not committing. I am committing with me authentically and integrity – I am a winner. I am successful person. I win. I succeed.' Today, sit with this one pattern and complete it, take this as homework. Because this is one of the important pattern that everyone suffers with!

2. An ashramite is sending a question - 'Can you explain and clarify the difference between complete cognition and the so-called positive thinking?'

The so-called positive thinking is always positive-negative thinking! Listen, your thinking is usually negative-positive thinking. In positive thinking, it is positive-negative thinking. Only in the complete cognition, you have the true positive experience. The deep wound where you start believing that negativity is going to be a lifestyle for you can be healed only in complete cognition. Positive thinking cannot heal the strong belief that failure is part of your life. Understand, positive thinking can be fighting with negativity, but it can never heal the negativity. Only complete cognition will heal the negativity.

Listen: your ordinary thinking is negative-positive, negative-positive - usually negative, you rarely think positively! Positive thinking is like you consciously trying to be positive, but falling into negative, then again starting positive and falling into negative. But with complete cognition - I call it poornatva - your strong belief of failure will be healed!

3. I have one more question from Singapore. 'Is positive thinking a deliberate conscious ahankara-building?'

I tell you, it is a deliberate conscious building, but built without foundation. So when it collapses, the damage will be too much. A small earthquake is sufficient to collapse the whole thing, and the damage will be too much!

Unite the ahankara and mamakara. What are the major obstacles for uniting the ahankara and mamakara? One of the important wedges between ahankara and mamakara is - constantly preparing for the negative eventuality.

Yesterday, one of my devotees was crying, 'Swamiji, so much of negativity is coming out of me that I feel like running away somewhere!'

I said, 'You don't have to run away anywhere. If there is any place you can go where the suffering will not chase you, I myself will send you there by a chartered plane! Just show me a single place where this suffering will not chase you.'

Just by completion alone can life be faced, never by any preparation for the worst eventuality! Please listen: until the chicken is able to come out of the egg and find its own food, the hen is responsible for hatching it. Until the cub is capable of hunting on its own and finding food, and has learnt all the

The so-called positive thinking is always positivenegative thinking! Only in the complete cognition, you have the true positive experience!

survival techniques, the lion or lioness is responsible for it.

Until you learn responsibility, I am responsible. Understand, only when you learn responsibility do you become human being. Until you become a human being, I am responsible for making you human being. A hen cannot say, 'I will not make this egg into a chicken and the chicken into a hen!' Each one of you is only an egg – a possibility. Until you become a chicken, I am responsible!

The lioness is responsible till the cub learns to hunt on its own and is able to survive. If the lion and lioness disown the cub, what will happen? I tell you, by the very nature of the lioness, she cannot disown her cub. In the same way, by my very nature, I cannot disown you. Don't worry. I can only wait. I cannot give up on you. Maybe you will waste a few janmas (lifetimes), but I will not be able to give up on you. I will wait, I will wait, and I will continue to wait!

The ultimate sacrifice is when, sometimes, the lioness forces the cub to fight with her, by acting as if she is angry and attacking the cub - just to teach the cub how to fight, how to hunt. She may give her own tail for you to learn to bite! But even this is not the ultimate sacrifice. Do you know what the ultimate sacrifice is? When the lioness turns and roars in anger at the cub! When the cub is trying to bite her tail, tolerating is not the ultimate sacrifice. When the lioness turns and shows an angry face and roars - and out of that fear, survival mode is awakened in the cub, and the cub jumps on the lioness! And the lioness will be laughing in her heart. That is the ultimate sacrifice.

The cub does not even know the plan of the lioness. The cub thinks the lioness is attacking me, and I have to win, I have to attack. The cub can never win against the lioness. But just by making the cub attack, the lioness feels she has won. She has won the ultimate winning. She is successful in making the cub attack her back, and now she knows he will survive. He has become me.

Even when we see utter inauthenticity in others, when we take responsibility for it, we become leaders; life oozes through us. Completion is the only solution. Only completion gives you the courage to handle even others' inauthenticities.

Every time you are split, you are asking for one more person to fight with you! Listen, when you are split and constantly fighting with yourself, sometimes you feel it is too much, it is easier to fight when there is one more person!

I tell you, the demon who is sitting inside you and enjoying your body and mind for a long time will not even allow you to do completion. How many of you feel you don't even want to do completion? Do you know why? Because this demon has lived in you for a long time! Why will he get out? He will say, 'Let Swamiji move out! He is a new tenant; I am the old tenant. I have been living here for ages, he is a newcomer. Just because somebody new has come, you are asking me to get out!'

Unfortunately, every time somebody opens up with completion, they only feel the load. How many of you feel, 'Oh God, I have tons and tons to complete!' I tell you, if you complete just a few kgs, suddenly the whole load will disappear! Do you know why? The incompletion is not in mass volume; it is just a sheet covering! See, this lion statue here is not solid inside. It is only a sheet covering. When you look at it from outside, it looks so huge, but when you look at it closely, you will see that it is only a sheet, it is not solid statue.

Your incompletions are also like this. They are just sheets, not solid material. When you start doing completion, you will experience this. From outside you will feel, 'Oh my god, it is so heavy, how will I lift it?' But the heap of your incompletion is actually just a thin sheet of incompletion! Start and you will understand. You may think, 'No, it may be so for others; you don't know my incompletions!' I know what you know and what you don't know, both. It is like the mother asking the child, 'Hey, are you eating chocolate?' The child says, 'No, I don't have any chocolate with me.' He doesn't know that the mother is so tall that she can see what you are holding in your hand behind you!

You can do viraja homa only after atma shraaddha, swashraaddha, only after doing last rites for yourself. Only if you have destroyed the root thought patterns in yourself, you have done shraaddha for yourself. So you have to complete by destroying all the root patterns. This is the real sannyas. Completing with root thought patterns and doing atma shraaddha is the real sannyas. If you destroy root thought patterns, you can do atma shraaddha and you are ready for sannyas. If you destroy yourself, you have done atma hatya and you are ready for hell!

I have a question from a devotee, 'Swamiji, you asked us to do completion as a technique. Can you explain the technique in a few lines?'

Listen: I have never asked you to do completion as a technique! I have asked you to do it as a process. Technique means, you go in and come out as you are. In a process, you go in and come out as a new person. There is a big difference between technique and process. Technique has no conscious involvement; process has a conscious involvement. It evolves while you do it.

Let me define the process of completion. If somebody else is involved in your process, sit with the other person; if they are not available for some reason, sit with a mirror, invoking that person in the mirror. If no other person is involved, if you only need to sit with you, sit with yourself on the other side of the mirror, First complete with yourself, and then invoke the other person in the mirror and do completion with the other person.

Now I am giving you the method or process of swapoornatva, the process of completion with yourself. First, identify the incompletion in you which is the source of the repetitive pattern. Invoke that person in the mirror, literally call your name, invoke your own incomplete part in the mirror, invoke your presence by doing prana pratishtha. Talk to that incomplete person, heal that person, make him as part of you by befriending that person. Talk, talk, talk it out till he understands and accepts his inauthenticities and declares that he will become part of you, supporting you, enriching you do the process.

If you have to do completion with someone who is not available, sit with the mirror again. Don't do it in the same mirror, move to another mirror. If you have invoked yourself in the mirror, don't invoke the other person in the same mirror. Invoke the other person with prana pratishtha. 'With integrity and authenticity, I invoke your presence here.' You will see, he is there! You may even suddenly receive a phone call from that person, saying that he wants to talk to you and complete with you. You do not know the power of completion!

Even if you have something to complete with me, just try this one process of invoking me in the mirror. When you see me next time, my eyes, my behavior, my attitude, everything will be different. I will prove it to you. Then you will know the power of completion. And you know how to invoke me: just do the prana prathishtha, and I am there.

Completion alone is the shield to protect yourself in future from everything. Completion alone is the sword to win in every situation of your life. Completion is the sword and shield. Even if you resist completion, you don't want to do completion, you fight with completion, you suffer with completion, you know that after the process you are going to be liberated, you are going to be free and you are going to be better person. Then do it!

When you are carrying the space of completion, you are in the lap of Mahadeva. Nothing can touch you. You will always be successful. Even Vishnu's eagle, Garuda, cannot touch the snake which is playing on Mahadeva's neck. The space of completion is a shield and sword for your life. Do it, do it, do it!

Space of completion is the brahmakapaala that Shiva carries. Any incompletion that you have, just drop it in that; it will swallow it, it will destroy it, it will eat it away! Space of completion is the brahmakapaala that Mahakala carries. Just drop any incompletion in that, it will swallow it. Carry the space of completion. That is the ananda gandha, that is pratyagaatma chaitanya! Only if you are carrying the space of completion, you can heal others, and your ananda gandha is open, alive, active, available to you and to others.

Completion is a sword and a shield. Shield and sword are not two. Completion is the sword and the shield. Offer anything incomplete into it, it will swallow the incompletion. Let us bring Authenticity and Integrity, Responsibility and Enriching!

In the Inner Awakening program, we help each person live these four tattvas, and teach and help others live these four tattvas. By the time he completes Inner Awakening, the person has to become a jeevan mukta, he has to be living enlightenment! When he goes back, his family, his friends, whoever comes in his breathing space, should live these four tattvas. Each Inner Awakening graduate should be radiating these four tattvas so powerfully in your life, everybody around you should just start living these four tattvas. Only then you have had Inner Awakening - or else you have just wasted your time!

I declare the next few months as the season of completion, - poornatva ritu, so that constantly everybody is reminded that to keep doing completion. It is the season of completion. Clear?

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Listen! When you created your past record, you did not have the intelligence of looking into the possibility of the possibility. Now that is one of the big gest openings! That gives you the breakthrough in life.

Today, I will expand on the subject of the four tattvas being directly related to your seven energy centers or chakras.

Your base chakra is the root center or mooladhara chakra. Mooladhara means root cause of everything; root and base of everything. What is mooladhara? It is the Word! The word you experience is mooladhara – root and base for everything. The word you experience is the root. Right now, your mooladhara is chaos, confusion. It is just like a huge septic tank. You do not even know what all is there inside!

Integrity is the chemical with which you can purify and clear the mooladhara chakra. Integrity is the chemical you need to drop into your mooladhara. Because mooladhara is the space from which the word starts happening in you, the nada (primal sound) starts happening in you. Integrity is the chemical with which you can clean mooladhara.

I want all of you to know some basic truths. When you have integrity in your mooladhara, you will have visualization capacity. You will not just have verbalization. If you have visualization, then picking up verbalization is very easy. Visualization is like cotton. Verbalization is like making thread out of cotton. If you have cotton, making thread is easy. But if you have only thread, making cotton is not possible. Understand?

See, you all have verbalization naturally, and with effort you will have to create visualization. Am I right? In my case I have visualization naturally, and with effort I have to create verbalization. That is why, whenever I see anything, I see it comprehensively. Whenever you see anything, you always see partially. So there is a big gap between what I say and what you understand!

I do not have words inside me. I have only vision, visualization without verbalization, because after the enlightenment experience, only visualization is left. Verbalization is taken away. It is taken away. So I have to pick up verbalization with effort whenever required for any purpose.

When each one of you declares your commitment, I know the level of integrity you have. When you commit itself, I can say whether it is from verbalization or visualization, because there are many things which will not come out when you are committing out of verbalization.

Please listen, when you add integrity, suddenly your mooladhara opens to the visualization capability. When the nada joins with bindu, the kala happens. Verbalization is nada, cosmic feminine energy. Visualization is bindu, cosmic masculine energy. When they both meet, kala – creativity, the creation of the cosmos, happens.

Nada becomes kala only when there is bindu, visualization. Your verbalization merges into visualization and becomes reality only when you add integrity to it. Till you add integrity, your verbalization never becomes visualization. Unless it becomes visualization, it can never become reality! Can anything be made into reality if you don't visualize? No.

For example, I say a word - paint this deity. But the person who is supposed to do it has to actually visualize taking the paint, applying it on the deity and painting the deity. So the verbalization has to join with visualization. Visualization will be there only if you have integrity.

Only if you are continuously completing with yourself and others, and retaining the space of sampoorti (integrity), you will have visualization. This will decide whether your mooladhara is a septic tank, or a pot of molten gold! If it is a pot of molten gold, you will be able to make a golden deity. If it is a septic tank, how will you make a golden deity?

Life is a golden deity. Fortunately life is not made out of septic tank material - even though you try to make it that! Life is a golden deity made out of visualization. Kala, creativity happens when nada and bindu merge. The visualization capacity is directly related to integrity*. Mooladhara* has a certain innate energy. If you add integrity, it will become visualization. If you don't add integrity, it will become fantasy.

Fantasy is nothing but lack of integrity. Whether what you visualize is going to become reality or not is dependent on your integrity. Your verbalization becomes visualization only when you have integrity. Only then, it becomes reality. Add integrity by completing with yourself for all the commitments you made to yourself, and all the commitments you made to others.

If you have integrity, every word the master gives you will just become reality in your life. When you are with integrity and authenticity, your very body structure changes! Your body structure changes. One of my swamis has committed that he will go beyond the need of food and sleep. He wanted me to bless him. I have given him a tathaastu (blessing word meaning 'so be it') specially for that. Because I know that when you start living with integrity and authenticity, even your body starts taking a different shape. When you have integrity, your being will start practicing even those instructions which have not been directly given to you.

Listen: when you do not establish yourself in integrity, even the verbalization you receive does not become visualization. When you are established in integrity, even the verbalizations which are not given to you become visualizations. How many of you cognize this? So bring yourself again and again and again to integrity. Self-completion and completion with others and practicing integrity

When the nada (verbalization) cosmic feminine energy joins with bindu (visualization) - cosmic masculine energy, kala - creativity, creation of the cosmos happens!

awakens kundalini shakti in your mooladhara chakra.

When you are established in integrity, what is the first job you need to do? Weed out all the negative self-fulfilling prophecies that you have created for yourself. Weeding out and completing all the negative selffulfilling prophecies opens the swadhishthana chakra and releases you from fear. Unless you weed out the negative self-fulfilling prophecies, you will not be able to jump into the life of sannyas. Sannyas means that you cannot allow even the space for falling anymore!

If you are able to even visualize the space where you are never going to fall from integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enrichment, I tell you, I will make that as reality for you today with my blessing, with my tathaastu. It will simply become a realization for you. Understand, you can make whatever you can visualize as reality. With integrity and authenticity, visualize yourself in the space of non-falling, moving only from completion to completion, fulfillment to fulfillment. All it needs is your ability to weed out the negative self-fulfilling prophecies you create for yourself, and the ability to visualize with authenticity and strength.

It is unfortunate that you are always occupied with negative selffulfilling prophecies. You are hardly occupied with visualizations of your success! You are too busy with negative self-fulfilling prophecies, because, as per the past record, you only failed. I tell you, with anybody who succeeded, till that success happened, he only failed! But if he had held on to his past record, success should not have happened in his life.

Many times, your negative patterns serve some vested interest, some purpose in your life. Yesterday one of my devotees was telling me, 'I have a negative pattern of thinking that you don't care for me. I know

it is a pattern, but I will not complete that pattern and get out of it! If I get out of it, I will not ask for your attention, and you will not care for me. Just because of that, I will not lose this pattern; I will keep this pattern forever!'

How many of your patterns serve any of your purposes? For example, this pattern, 'I am not going to be successful,' serves your purpose of non-commitment to life. Listen: life forcibly enters into your nose in the form of breath; other than that, you do not allow any form of life into you! Only because life forcibly enters into you, and you can't stop it, you allow it!

The five spiritual principles are direct expressions of the five kinds of life-energy that happen in you - prana is integrity, vyana is responsibility, udana is authenticity, samana is enriching and apana is completion. But unfortunately, you allow only oxygen to go to your lungs, you allow the heart to pump only blood; you never allow life to happen in you.

All these negative self-fulfilling prophecies keep the vested interest alive in you, and do not allow life to happen in you. That is why your fantasies are always like this: in one corner of the world where nobody is there, I will have one small hut with a few fruit trees, and I will just have my food and sleep there.

The five spiritual principles are direct expressions of life energy in you - prana is integrity, vyana is responsibility, udana is authenticity, samana is enriching and apana is completion!

How many of you have these kinds of cozy visualizations? You need to know that rejection of life is the thing for which you constantly yearn. Even your visualization should be of a huge palace, where you sit and constantly inspire and teach millions of people! How many of you have this as your regular visualization? You are all for Life.

I have a one-liner here – I don't like carrots, and I am really glad I don't like them, because if I liked them, I would eat them, and I really hate eating them! This is the perfect statement for lack of integrity. When you are lacking in integrity, and you are suffering with self-fulfilling negative prophecies, this is your pattern.

That is why I am saying that your cognition is based on inauthenticity, and you are unable to expand continuously. As I said, you must be having those cozy visualizations from the beginning: I will have one small house, one husband, one child, one car, one small kitchen, and I will just live; in the morning, I will send them to the office and school, and sit and watch TV, and in the evening, I will receive them, and we will all have dinner together and sleep.

Understand, your cozy visualizations are nothing but the yearning for rejection of life. You already have a clear negative weed put in you – I cannot work day and night. I cannot make my team work day and night. I cannot visualize further day and night! Because you already planned that you are going to be failure, you will not be a success even if you work day and night. See, you have decided that even if you work, you are not going to get it, and that is enough to make you not work, and then naturally you will not get it! So this is the vicious circle.

The moment you decide - even if I work I won't get it - you are not going to work for it. When you don't work, you are not going to get it.

When you make a decision, the past record which never considered the possibility becomes the base material. When you plan for your future, the past record which never considered the possibility's possibility becomes the base record.

All I am trying to tell you is, the possibility's possibility is not being considered when you declare about your future. What was your past record, when you have never considered the possibility of possibility? Now considering the possibility of possibility is one of the important new components that has been introduced. Why are you not considering that in your equation? Catching it? I know you don't want to catch it!

Listen, when you created your past record, you did not have the intelligence of looking into the possibility of the possibility, and the team which was working with you did not look into the possibility of the possibility. Now that is one of the biggest openings. Listen: possibility of the possibility gives you the breakthrough in life. That gives you the breakthrough in life.

Possibility of the possibility - all the ideas which you had, but which never became visualization because of your lack of integrity, let them all become your visualization and become your reality now.

Listen! The possibility of the possibility gives you the breakthrough in life!

The lack of integrity and authenticity is responsible for the verbalizations not becoming visualizations. Because you don't stretch yourself, you don't expand the pond of mooladhara, the verbalizations don't land on it and becomes visualization. It is as if the pot of mooladhara is kept upside down. All the plans are already there in your mind, in your brain, as verbalization. But because there is no space inside, it has not gone inside and become visualization and reality. If you just stretch yourself with integrity and authenticity, all those plans will suddenly drop inside, and they will become visualization and reality.

Stand up! It is time for you to practice making the impossible possible! I am giving you the space to travel with me into the space of making impossible possible. Only by travelling with me now and making this into reality, you will have the training to make your life's commitment into reality. Yes.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

If you are not able to find solutions for your internal conflicts, or for getting the solution even after you find it - be very clear, you are disconnected from life. You need to do something immediately!

Today, I will expand on the initiation into the four tattvas and Kundalini awakening.

Living these four principles awakens your Kundalini, and allows the extraordinary possibilities to happen in your inner being. When you lose interest in life, when you again and again hit the conflicts that you are not able to solve, or you again and again forget the solutions you find and get tangled into the same problem - if you are in this space, please listen. You are moving towards death! Life has lost its interest in you! You have lost interest in Life!

You are not able to find solutions for some of your internal conflicts, or you are again and again getting stuck with the same problem, or forgetting the solution even after you find it. You find the solution, and in two days, you again forget the solution, and you are caught in the same problem. If your life is rolling like this, be very clear, you are

disconnected from life. You need to do something immediately!

These four principles are like the river Ganga in the desert of conflicts! If your mind has become a desert of conflicts, bring in the Ganga of these four principles – integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. Listen! The success of these four principles depends on your living them again and again and again.

For example, suppose you have lived twelve years of married life, with lots of arguments, fights, ups, downs, everything. Then one day, when you are in a low mood, or when the fight is at its peak, you decide to break the relationship. At that time, your mind will show as if the whole twelve years was nothing but fight and exploitation! But if you decide not to break, and you somehow heal the relationship and continue to live, your mind will say that the whole twelve years was a smooth marriage, or at least, you were living together with stability.

So, please listen, the decision you make at this moment decides your perception of the whole past. How many of you cognize what I am saying? So there is no such thing as 'past' existing for you. Your mind shows something different every moment, so the past you see every moment is a different past.

There is no such thing as 'past' existing for you. It is the decision you make at this moment, that decides your perception of the whole past!

I have seen this - sometimes, people who have lived in the ashram for years suddenly decide to leave the ashram for some personal reason. But when they leave, they strongly believe that all the years they lived in the ashram were a struggle! But if they decide to cross that low mood and stay back, within the next few days or even the next few hours, they feel, 'What a blessing to live in the ashram! If I had decided to leave, it would have been such a big miss, a big curse! What a blessing to see an incarnation every morning! I should not have gone into that low mood. I will not even think any more about leaving!'

But in one week, you are back again, saying, 'No, no, no! I think I have to leave! He may be an incarnation or avatar, but he will not be able to help me with the problem in which I am stuck. His level is different. I can't go to his level!' Then, the mind will again show as if the whole time you lived in the ashram was a struggle! But somehow you don't get a ticket or a taxi, and you don't leave. The next day, again your mind will start, 'Wherever I go, this mind is going to be there. If I am here, at least some of the words he utters will enter into my inner space, and I may have the space of peace and restful awareness.' So you convince yourself !

Every person who is in a relationship or marriage can understand whatever I am saying now! It is very unfortunate, but your mind shows your whole past in the same color, based on your present mood and space. If you are in the dark inner space, your mind paints the whole past as dark and shows it to you. If you are in the bright inner space, your mind shows your whole past as a bright possibility. Only when you break this pattern, you start human life! It is so unfortunate that human beings do not understand the truth that when your mind is in a dark space, it shows as if your whole past is dark, and when your mind is in a light space, it shows as if your whole past is enlightened!

Listen: When I decided to become enlightened and became enlightened, I saw that my whole past was enlightened. There was not a single moment, including the moment of my birth, when I was unaware of me! I was aware of my whole life, from the birthing process to this moment! I also want you to understand, before I decided to become enlightened and became enlightened at the age of twelve, I did not have the clarity that I am enlightened from birth.

Please understand, I need to confess this to you! You need to know this! Only then will you understand the insider's secret of enlightenment. Before twelve, I was not thinking that I am born enlightened. I was not having the feeling that I was aware of my birthing process. From birth, I was continuously aware about whatever is happening. But only after I became enlightened at the age of twelve, my inner space was showing the whole past as conscious, alive and enlightened.

So when you decide to keep yourself in the higher space forever and have a conscious breakthrough, suddenly you see that your whole past was always in higher consciousness, or travelling towards higher consciousness.

Maya means 'that which is not there, but which appears to be there'. This is Maya. You need to know the basic secrets of the human mind. Many

When you decide to keep yourself in the higher space forever, you will see that your whole past was always in higher consciousness, or travelling towards higher consciousness!

times, people decide to commit suicide only because, when they are in the lowest mood, suddenly their mind shows them as if their whole past was in the lowest mood. Same way, whenever you fail in integrity or authenticity and you are in a low mood, your mind will say that you never lived integrity and authenticity. It will show as if your whole life was inauthentic, irresponsible and lacking in integrity. But when you restore integrity through completion and you become authentic, suddenly your mind will show that your life was a long and sincere journey towards authenticity and responsibility. How many of you cognize what I am saying?

So listen. Do not be cheated by your mind. Do not be destabilized by your mind. Go on practicing integrity. Go on practicing authenticity. Go on practicing responsibility. Go on practicing enriching. I tell you - one dharma that even an enlightened being has to practice is these four principles. No exemptions! Even I continue to practice these four principles continuously. Because as long as these are practiced and lived, life goes on expanding. Not just me - the cosmos itself still continues to practice this! The stability of the universe is nothing but the universe practicing integrity. The expansion of the universe is nothing but the universe practicing authenticity. Incarnations still landing on planet Earth to make all of you enlightened is nothing but the universe practicing responsibility. Even after so much torture and abuse by human beings, enlightened beings and incarnations are continuing to enrich planet earth; this is nothing but the cosmos deciding to do whatever it takes to enrich all of you.

The stability of the cosmos is the cosmos practicing integrity. The expansion of the cosmos is the cosmos practicing authenticity. Enlightened masters landing is the cosmos practicing responsibility. Enlightened masters continuing to teach you all, even after the torture

and suffering you give them, is the cosmos practicing enriching. So even the cosmos continues to practice these four principles!

Constantly bring yourself back to authenticity and integrity. Decide again now, declare again now you will not be tired, you will not be retired, you will not be lazy, you will not show any fatigue or laziness to execute these four tattvas. The ribs of your chest should be strengthened by the four tattvas. These four tattvas are the strength of life. Strength of life is these four tattvas: integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. You don't need anything else.

If you start living these four tattvas authentically in your life, you don't even need to go to a guru, you don't even need to go to any god or incarnation or enlightened being. Start living these four principles, these four tattvas. They will all come towards you. God will come to you. Guru will come to you. I have seen, when some of my disciples live these four tattvas authentically, I myself feel so much love and grace in their space.

I tell you, all of you decide from today - without tiredness, without fatigue, without the mood of retirement, we will keep these tattvas flying high in our life. Let the flag of these tattvas fly high and be kept alive. Anything can be sacrificed, but not these four spiritual principles. Let these four principles

As long as these four are practiced and lived, life goes on expanding. The expansion of the cosmos is the cosmos practicing authenticity!

fly high. Raise this flag in your house, in your workplace, wherever you can. Keep it flying high. Decide that you will keep yourself in the highest integrity, the highest level of authenticity, the highest level of responsibility, the highest level of enriching. Raise the flag of the four tattvas in your houses, shops, workplaces, and keep it flying high. Let the dharma dhvaja (flag of Dharma) fly high! Let life be lived only to keep the dharma dhvaja flying high.

Constantly bring integrity to your thinking, authenticity to your feeling, responsibility to your actions, enriching to your lifestyle! You will see, you will realize an extraordinary space in your life. When you start integrating your inner space, your whole inner space becomes positive - because you have to honor any negative commitment you give even by mistake! Why would you want to waste your energy in honoring the negative commitments you give to you, unless you are an utter fool? Fortunately, nobody is that much of a fool on planet Earth!

Even the people who want to commit suicide try to find the easiest, most painless method! There are enough websites on the internet that can give you suggestions and techniques for painless suicide. I was wondering, when somebody decides to die, why will they go to the internet and Google? Because you are not so utterly foolishly foolish! Even if you decide to die, you try to find the best method, without pain!

So, you are not so foolishly foolish as to honor your negative commitments. When you know you are not going to honor them, then naturally you know that you have to complete them. When you are constantly completing the negative commitments you give to yourself unconsciously, the next time you declare, 'I will be a winner!,' your mind, which is such a mischievous child, will suddenly shout, 'No, No! You are a loser!' It will shout from one corner and go and hide in

the room and make faces at everybody from there. 'No, no! I already told you, you are a loser!' Now, your integrity is not going to work! So, once again, you have to sit and complete and drop.

In a village, there was an orthodox brahmin. He was too orthodox and too superstitious. Even if he sees somebody from the lower community, he will go and take a bath again in the river and come back! There was a mischievous kid from a lower community who would wait behind a tree. The moment that brahmin came out of the river after taking a bath, he would just jump in front of him and say, 'See, you have seen me! Now you have to take another bath!' The brahmin would go back to the river, and when he came back, the kid would again jump from behind the tree! If the brahmin tried to catch this boy, he would climb up the tree. The poor brahmin can't do anything!

In exactly the same way, your mind is also playing with you! How many of you have caught your mind playing like this when you were practicing integrity? So, the one and the only way is to catch the mind and tie it and put it in the river! Catch the mind and tie it and put it in the river! It means, this negative practice of teasing yourself is also one more negative commitment you have given to you. Whenever you try to practice positivity, you will make a negative statement also, because that is one more negative commitment you have given

Constantly bring integrity to your thinking, authenticity to your feeling, responsibility to your actions, enriching to your lifestyle! You will realize an extraordinary space in your life!

to you. How many of you cognize this? So decide, 'I will drop that!' Then that boy will disappear once and for all! You can take a bath, come out beautifully and go and do your pooja! Decide, again and again, you will live integrity!

When you practice integrity again and again, your mind will simply become one, integrated. Then authenticity, responsibility and enriching will become your lifestyle. There won't be any inner struggle or internal conflict. When you have internal conflict, if one part of you is laughing at you, understand that there is incompletion. So, sit with you and complete whatever incompletions you remember at that moment.

When you complete again and again, without getting tired or bored, suddenly you will see that the lack of integrity does not even happen in you. You are just totally different! Your life is just totally different! Your life becomes something extraordinary! You will not even know where you were, to compare and see where you are now, and how much you are transformed! Integrity and authenticity have the ability to give the ultimate breakthrough to you. It can give you the ultimate breakthrough!

When you sincerely start practicing integrity, you will be in such a beautiful space of positivity. That itself will give you so much joy and courage to live with more and more integrity and the space of completion. When you live with authenticity, you will experience the space of possibility. Everything, everything, everything is possible! The space of possibility happens to you when you live authenticity.

Integrity brings the space of ultimate positivity. Authenticity brings the space of ultimate possibility. Responsibility brings the space of leadership, meaning that you will be the leader for everything that is

happening in and around you. Enriching brings the space of enlightenment in you. The whole cosmos will simply be pouring its energy into you, through you, because you are sharing it with the whole cosmos!

The essence of today's satsang is this: tirelessly practice integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, again and again and again!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Integrity brings the space of positivity, authenticity the space of possibility, responsibility the space of leadership and enriching brings the space of enlightenment in you!

Reality means projecting your life in the outer world as you want it in the inner world, and, because there is no discrepancy between the inner world and the outer world, experiencing the truth of non-duality.

Today, I will expand once again on how the first principle of life sampoorti, integrity - supports you in transforming your life as you want, manifesting your reality as you want.

So let me define integrity once again. Integrity is you fulfilling the word or thought you give to yourself and to others, and experiencing the state of completion with yourself and with life.

Let me also define reality. Reality means, projecting your life in the outer world as you also want it in the inner world, and because there is no discrepancy between the inner world and the outer world, experiencing the truth of non-duality. Advaita is Reality! Listen! Not having any conflict or contradiction in the inner world about what you want, and projecting that, and experiencing that without any conflict or contradiction in the outer world – this is Reality. Also, because there is no conflict or contradiction, either in the inner world, or between the

inner and outer worlds, experiencing non-duality as the flow of your very life – this is Reality.

Now let me expand on Reality, so that you understand how the four principles can be used to make reality as you want. Let me once again define what reality is. This is a very important definition. Only when you experience this as your reality can you have the experience of brahmanyam bahuputrataam - I am the favorite inheritor of the Cosmos!

Reality means not having any conflicts and contradictions internally about what you want to experience as your inner world and outer world, and projecting it so powerfully that there is no conflict between your projection and your experience-perception. But even inside you, there is so much conflict and contradiction! What you really want inside you and outside you – even in that, there is so much conflict.

Second, because there is a conflict inside you, what you project is not able to move the outside the way you want. For example, when you say you want money, one part of you already says, 'No, no, I will ask, but you should not give!' Because of the conflict, contradictions and unconsciousness inside, what you project outside also has conflict, contradictions and unconsciousness. Because of that, your outer world also has unconsciousness, conflict and contradictions. This is what I call un-reality; the confusion of dwandva or duality.

First be clear within yourself about how much wealth you need, and how much responsibility you need to take for it. What is the way you want to feel about yourself, and what is the way you want to project yourself to others? What are the other ways you can perceive yourself? Have clarity and take responsibility for all this, so that you are feeling complete inside. The power of your inner completion is such that the

moment you project something out of completion, the whole world runs to fulfill it and serve you!

You need to know a beautiful story about the child devotee Prahlada's life. When Prahlada's angry father asked Prahlada, - 'Is your Narayana – your God - in this pillar? Is He inside that pillar? Is He in this stone?,' Prahlada was about to raise his small finger and show his father that his God was really there in the pillar. A child will natural takes a little time to lift his hand and show inside which pillar his Narayana is! When Prahlada was about to mention the pillar, Narayana started running from his heavenly abode in Vaikunta! His consort Lakshmi asked, 'What happened? Why are you running so fast? What is there to be in such a hurry about?' Narayana said, 'No, no, you don't know! Wherever my devotee Prahlada points his finger, I have to enter into that pillar! Wherever he points, I have to occupy that place and emerge from it!'

Listen! When a child is established in Integrity, just for his hand movement or the direction he shows, God lands! Listen! The whole world moves as you want when you are established in Integrity. In the Hindu scriptures, one child devotee is the embodiment of each of the tattvas. Prahlada is the embodiment of integrity, Nachiketa is the embodiment of authenticity, Dhruva is the embodiment of responsibility, Markandeya is the embodiment of enriching.

Reality means not having any conflicts and contradictions in your inner world and outer world, and projecting it so there is no conflict between your projection and your experience!

When you are in completion, with integrity, without internal conflict or contradictions, whatever you project on the cosmos is a project for the cosmos! Simply cosmos does it. When you are integrated, the outer world obeys you just like that. That is the power of integrity! Please listen: nothing is political on the planet Earth; nothing is accidental on the planet Earth. Everything runs on these four principles.

You may have a doubt – *are politicians integrated, are they authentic, are they responsible, are they enriching? How come they have whatever they want?* First thing, they may be amazingly integrated and authentic in ways you never expected them to be! Second, they may not be having what they want. They may be having what *you* want! And you may be having what *they* want. Understand, they having what *you* want does not make them big. It makes them big for you, but not for themselves.

Many times, people are big for you, but not for themselves. That is the funniest thing! Those whom you perceive as the big guys, when you touch the right spot, suddenly you will see they are hollow, empty inside. And those whom you think are empty and hollow will be very clear, very integrated, very authentic or very responsible.

So you need to know, however much you argue or try to convince yourself and others, the sun cannot be conquered by clouds, even though it shows as if they can cover it. In the same way, the cosmos, the world, humanity and society, everything runs on these four principles. Everything runs on this dharma. So let your thoughts not cloud you. Declare your victory!

Sometimes, in the cloud, you will see a great warrior on a horse. That fellow tries to come and cover the sun, and declare victory over the sun by showing his sword - without realizing that in a few minutes,

## Part 14: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

his whole form will be disintegrated! Your logic also sometimes comes and shows its sword and claims victory. But the world runs only on these four principles. The world runs only on these four principles. If you are in complete integrity with you, you can simply project whatever you want! I tell you, the world simply listens. I can see in my own life. When I just say it from my own experience, things simply happen.

The whole world listens to you when you project your reality out of completion. When you are in completion and project that to the world, you can see it becoming reality. When both your inside and outside are in completion, your experience of you and your experience of life do not have any conflict or contradiction with each other. That is what I call the flow of *Advaita*, flow of non-duality. Only when the flow of non-duality becomes your reality can you realize that you are the favorite inheritor of the cosmos - *brahmanyam bahuputrataam*!

You always feel it is a remote possibility in your life, if at all it is possible - which is not true! You need to know that you can complete now. You need not take years to complete the incompletion that you created for years. Declare now that you are complete, and you will be complete. The principles of life are always eternal. They are eternal. The first thing you need to do is to declare that you are complete inside. Declare that you are

*When you are in completion, with integrity, without internal conflict or contradictions, whatever you project on the cosmos is a project for the cosmos! The cosmos simply does it!*

complete inside. And out of that completion, project to the world, and see that what you want is becoming reality.

Listen, creating your reality is a science. Every human being, the moment he lands on the planet Earth, should be taught to create his own reality. *Create what you want* - this should be syllabus in our *gurukul*, in our Vidyalayas, at all levels. Every child who joins our Vidyalaya or *gurukul* should be given basic lessons in how to create your life, your reality.

Understand: you are already creating your reality every moment. When you are feeling tired or bored, and you are entertaining it, cherishing it, you are relaying the same waves and projecting the same thing on the world, and the world also behaves with you in a tired and bored way.

Listen, I am making a statement: every rupee you spend is a vote you are casting for the future of the world as you want it to happen. With every rupee you are spending, you are casting a vote for the way the world should be in the future.

If you are spending all your money in gold, feeling that the gold price is going to go up and it will be a security for your future, you are voting for the concept of gold. Naturally you are raising the value of gold, the value of it for your future. If all of us suddenly decide that jeans are going to be the costliest item in future, it is going to decide the power of the currency in future, let us all invest in jeans and store them, from tomorrow jeans will have the value of gold! If all of us decide that a pebble is costlier than gold, it is really a rare commodity, all of us like it, but the supply is limited - suddenly it will go higher in value than a diamond!

Listen! Every rupee you spend is a vote you are casting for the future of the world, expecting how the future of the world should be. Every rupee you save in the bank is also a vote you are casting. It means that you trust only currency, not real objects. That is also the vote you are casting. So understand, the whole thing is democracy. What is democracy? The projection of the individual becoming reality for the individual is democracy! Domesticating the craziness of the world is democracy.

Please listen: every rupee you are spending is a vote you are casting to the world about the way you want the future of the world, whether you are storing it in the bank or you are putting it real estate or you are putting it in gold or you are putting it in some other mode of investment or you are just spending it.

If you are in the field of economy you will understand this insight. Economy and Enlightenment together can be realized, understood, solved with these four principles. Enlightenment is the individual's Reserve Bank. Economy is Cosmic Enlightenment! For an individual, if his economy is complete, that is what he considers as enlightenment, even though it is not enlightenment. Same way, collectively also, we consider our economy as the completion, fulfillment. No!

*Declare that you are complete inside. And out of that completion, project to the world, and see that what you want is becoming reality!*

If you are spending your money on building *ashrams* and temples, saying that is going to be the important need of the future, you are voting for the idea that is going to become the important need of the future!

In future *satsangs*, I will expand on this same principle, the same truth, of how the integrity can lead you to ultimate experience of *advaita brahmanyam bahuputrataam*!

*Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!*

*When you start living integrity, you will suddenly see that so many truths are revealed to you, so many understandings happen to you, so many alignments happen in you. When you bring integrity, you bring dance to your inner being!*

Today I will expand on dharma. The first step of dharma that integrity establishes in you is the state of advaita, supporting you to transform the reality of your life.

First I will define integrity, and I will expand on how integrity can lead you to higher and higher realities, and finally the highest reality.

Honoring the word you give to yourself and to others as your very life is integrity. Listen. Honoring the words you give to you - that is the key point. All of you already know about honoring the word you give to others, because society teaches you enough about it. Society constantly teaches you to honor the words you give to others, because it is directly related to society. But it never teaches you that the word you give to you is also equally important.

Listen: every thought you complete is the word you give to you. You have to honor it. It means that now you cannot have the thoughts of depression and suicide! You cannot entertain the thought of fear. Fear is nothing but smaller levels of suicide. You cannot entertain the thought of suicide, because if you entertain it, it is equivalent to the word you have given to you, and you have to fulfill it and honor it. You should not entertain the thought of suicide. You cannot entertain the thought of fear, because you are literally sitting under a kalpataru, a wish-fulfilling tree, all the time!

There is a beautiful story.

Once a traveler was resting under a tree in a forest, without knowing that the tree was a kalpataru. Suddenly he had a desire, 'If somebody brings me some food now, how nice it will be! I am so hungry'. Immediately the food appeared before him! The man was overjoyed and happily ate the food. Then he thought, 'If somebody gives me a cot, it will be so nice. I could lie down and sleep peacefully.' Immediately a cot with a soft bed appeared! The man lay down happily on the cot to rest. Suddenly he had the thought, 'Oh, God! Whatever I am thinking is happening! But it is getting dark now. What if a tiger suddenly appears and attacks me? What will happen?' You know the rest of the story!

Understand, it is not only that man who was under a kalpataru! All of us are always under the kalpataru.

Listen! Every thought you complete is the word you give to you. You have to honor it. You are literally sitting under a kalpataru, a wish-fulfilling tree, all the time!

Every thought we give to ourselves will be honored if we don't complete it. Now I know that everyone has a fear – Oh, God! I have had so many negative thoughts. What to do?

Listen: there is nobody alive who has not entertained the thought of suicide at least once! All of us have fear. What do we do if all the words which we gave to ourselves now start getting fulfilled? You don't have to worry; you just have to complete them. Complete them one by one. Sit and declare to yourself consciously that you are not going to honor all the negative words you gave to yourself, and you are dropping them, completing them. Start creating the right inner software, the right inner space, by bringing integrity as the principle of life.

Integrity means not just fulfilling, but honoring the words you give to others. The first step of integrity is completing all the negative words you created within you about you and life, and completing all of them. Integrity starts with meditation, intranalyzing. Integrity starts with intranalyzing.

Only when you are complete, integrity starts. I tell you, just by completion you will learn so much conscious thinking. Intranalyzing, positive thinking, conscious thinking, breakthrough thinking - everything will happen the moment you bring integrity in you.

Now, you have to be aware of every word you utter to yourself. You just cannot allow the idea, 'Oh, I am not thinking, it's just happening, what can I do?' You can't afford to have this space. Practice completion, completion, completion and dropping! The first thing you will drop is self-hatred. You unconsciously carry so much self-hatred, which is what is responsible for constantly creating negative thoughts in you.

Even if you are healed of a disease, if you encourage the thought, 'It is going to come back, it is going to come back,' you are going to attract it back! Decide that you are not going to attract it, decide that it is not going to come back. And it will not come back, I assure you, I guarantee you - I have seen it in my life, I have experienced it in my life. Your thinking will have conscious training.

Sri Ramakrishna continuously recommends in his books that every person should retire from the regular activities at least for two or three days a month, or at least once in six months, and re-align himself towards the higher ideals.

I also strongly recommend this for all my followers and disciples. If you are in Bharat, at least once in two months, and if you are outside Bharat, at least once in six months, take three or four days off. Come and spend your time in the Bidadi ashram campus, re-aligning yourself to integrity. Here, you will see and hear the miracles happening just by integrity and authenticity.

Only when you see all these miracles with your eyes will you understand the power of integrity, the power of authenticity. Whatever is happening is the power of Dharma.

Buddha means, a person who has aligned with dharma. Sangha means, a group of people who

The first step of integrity is completing all the negative words you created within you about you and life, and completing all of them. Integrity starts with meditation, intranalyzing!

are aligning with dharma. But dharma is the center. Dharma is the center. It is the power of dharma. Once in a while, you have to retreat from the regular activities and align yourself to integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. Aligning yourself to these great spiritual truths, dharma. Just by completion you will learn so much conscious thinking, positive thinking. Once in a while, once in two months, come spend time with Kalabhairava, sit with him, talk to him and complete all the incompletions. Restore your integrity, restore your authenticity, restore your responsibility and restore your enriching consciousness. Go with strength. Just by completion, you will learn so much of conscious thinking.

When you clean your inner space with the power of integrity, you will realize that all the contradictions, conflicts and confusions you carry are responsible for your whole life, for all your actions, for all the reactions you attract from others and for all the happenings of your life. You are responsible for all your actions, the reactions you attract from others and the happenings of life. Integrity will automatically teach you responsibility. You will understand that for everything happening in and around you, you are responsible.

Integrity is the first lesson of spiritual life. Integrity is not just a simple vow, a simple word or a simple thing. Integrity is all about ironing out your thinking, aligning your thinking. If you bring integrity to your inner space, you will realize that even accidents are attracted by you. You are attracting everything in your life, whether it is wealth or poverty, right or wrong. You are responsible for your life.

When you start living integrity, you will suddenly see that so many truths are revealed to you, so many understandings happen to you, so

many alignments happen in you. As of now, your mind is like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle tied in a gunny bag! Integrity will align all those pieces and make it a proper drawing. When you bring integrity, you bring dance to your inner being. Dance brings a certain rhythm to your body. Integrity brings the same alignment to your thinking. The grace of a Bharatanatyam dance is brought to your thinking by integrity.

You have to start with completion with yourself. I am not giving you a spiritual principle which is some impractical theory from some book. NO. NO. It is a direct practical lifestyle! You need to have it as your lifestyle. Start the completion with you. You will see so much junk in you coming out. You will see that you are becoming such a powerful clearance, with such clarity; the pure consciousness. You will see that pratyagātmā chaitanya jāgrata happens in you. Inner Awakening happens in you.

It is so difficult for an ordinary human being to believe that he can be in completion. I tell you from my own experience, you can be in completion. Completion can be your inner space. Being in the state of fulfillment is possible. It is possible. Integrity starts when you are in the state of completion. Then you will naturally start honoring every word you give to others also.

You are responsible for all your actions, the reactions you attract from others and the happenings of life. Integrity will automatically teach you responsibility!

When you complete continuously, you will suddenly see that so much inner space is available for you to create new things, new happenings, new incidents around you. You will start attracting new things.

Integrity is such an important value in life; it is such an important dharma in life. It directly aligns you with the dharma of the universe, the dharma with which cosmos is functioning. Only when you bring yourself to integrity, you will be able to understand the dharma with which the cosmic constitution and cosmic law is operating.

You will have answers for hundreds or thousands of questions which you have about life - why there is so much poverty, why there is a gap between the haves and have-nots, why you are what you are, why the creation is the way it is - everything! For everything, you will have an answer.

Integrity is the first step for inner awakening to happen to you. You will realize the conflict-free, contradiction-free, confusion-free lifestyle happening in you. Integrity with yourself is the first principle of the cosmos. In the cosmos, constitutional rights and the cosmic law are both one and the same. In the cosmos, your rights and your responsibilities are both one and the same. They are not two different things. Integrity is your right and your responsibility.

In every country, there are some rights given to you through the constitution, and there are some laws that control you. In the cosmos, rights and responsibility are both one and the same. In the constitution of a country, your rights are given to you through the constitution, and your responsibilities are reminded to you through laws. But in the cosmos, your rights and responsibilities are both one and the same. Vidhi-nishedha, dos and don'ts, both are one and the same. In the cosmic constitution, integrity is the first declaration. It is your birthright and your responsibility, both. The first right you are given by the cosmic constitution, and the first responsibility you are asked to take by the cosmic law, is integrity.

Bring integrity. When you align the words you give to you, you will become so conscious, so aware of what you are thinking every moment. Automatically, all the awareness meditation techniques, self-remembrance techniques, everything will happen just by integrity. Ramana Maharshi's ātma vichāra (contemplation on self ), Buddha's vipassanā (witnessing), Sri Ramakrishna's ātma samarpaṇa (surrender ), everything will happen if you just bring integrity to your inner space. The breakthrough thinking will happen in you.

Bring integrity to your inner space by doing swapūrṇatva kriyā, completing with yourself; completing and dropping all the negative patterns you created in you which you feel as part of you, and creating a complete you. Out of that complete you, whatever you project to the outer world, you will experience that without conflict; because when there is no inner conflict, there will not be outer conflict.

Not having inner conflict, and because of that,

Integrity is the first step for inner awakening to happen to you. You will realize the conflict-free, contradiction-free, confusion-free lifestyle happening in you!

not having outer conflict, is advaita (non-duality). That is śuddha advaita (pure non-duality), Shiva advaita.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Listen! When you align yourself to integrity, you suddenly become one being. When you are one being , the reality you want, the reality you need and the highest Reality - all become one and the same. You will see that when you experience integrity in you, the whole world cooperates with you!

Today, I will expand about the nature of Reality.

When you don't have integrity, the life you want to have around you will change hour by hour. In the morning you will have one idea of a certain kind of life, at noon you will have a different idea and the next morning you will have some other idea about the life you want.

The reality you want to be in, the reality you need to be in and the highest Reality are all different realities. You will be just pushing and pulling and fighting. Please listen: finally, any fight is defeat. Any fight is defeat for all the parties involved in the fighting. Any reconciliation is victory for all the parties involved in the reconciliation.

Listen to these two statements. Any fighting is loss for all parties involved in the fight. Any reconciliation is good for all the parties involved in the reconciliation. If there is a fight between you and you, it is because of your lack of integrity. Sometimes I have seen ten people living inside one body! Listen! I tell you from my experience, sometimes one large-size joint family lives inside one body! So much chaos, so much chaos, so much confusion! How will you find peace?

You need to know, forgetting happens because of lack of integrity. If one person takes over the other person inside you, you forget what the first person was thinking. How many of you are able to cognize this truth? You are an entire group living inside one body! So when I ask your name, you should say your name and add the words – '& Group'! Who are you? Raman & Group! Because you are not one person; you are a group of people living inside one body.

Another problem is, when a group of people live inside your body, all of them need to share your body. One person owns your hand, one person owns your leg, one person owns your brain and one person owns your heart. So even though there are so many people, all of them are handicapped, because nobody owns the whole.

Tell me, can 20 handicapped people put together perform one healthy person's work? And here, only one person owns the brain. All the other 19 do not have a brain! And the fellow who owns the brain does not have a heart, and the fellow who

Forgetting happens because of lack of integrity. If one person takes over the other person inside you, you forget what the first person was thinking!

owns the heart does not have a hand. What will you be fit for?

That is why I am telling you to complete with yourself and align yourself to integrity. When you align yourself to integrity, suddenly you become one being. When you are one being, the reality you want, the reality you need and the highest Reality, all three become one and the same.

Listen! Once you integrate yourself, whatever you want to achieve, you will be able to just declare and do it. You just declare and do it. You will see, when you experience integrity in you, the whole world cooperates with you.

When you maintain integrity with you, your own confidence in you increases. When you maintain integrity with others, others' confidence in you increases. When you have confidence in you, you will realize that you are the ultimate Doer, you are the cause of Reality.

When you bring integrity into your thinking, you become aware of every anxiety you go through, every fear you go through, every forgetfulness you go through; you see how you are responsible for creating negativity in your life, you see how you are anxious to create negativity in your life, and you also see how you can align yourself with yourself, and the world can just align itself with you.

With lack of integrity, there is such a huge confusion. You do not know what goes on inside you and outside you. Sometimes, you even forget what you really want. Sometimes, just to prove that you are right, you destroy your life. I have seen human beings destroy their whole life just to prove they are right. They lose their whole life. It is so dangerous, so dangerous.

It is so sad that many times, human beings do not know what they really want. Their lack of integrity makes them forget what they want. Please listen, when you lack integrity, you even forget what you actually want. After two days, you don't know what you wanted! You can have the life of not having what you want. Even that can be forgiven. But you can't have the life of not knowing what you want! Not having what you want is only poverty. Not knowing what you want is just 'horror-ty'! I am giving a new word. Not having what you want is just being poor. Not knowing what you want is being in the state of terror, horror!

Integrity is not just ethics. It is your constitutional right and your first responsibility! What you can do is your right. What you can't do is the law. Just like a country's constitution has some vidhi-nishedha, dos and don'ts, in the cosmic constitution, you have some rights and you have some responsibilities. Here, integrity is your right and your responsibility. It is not just your responsibility, it is your right! If you understand how much integrity adds to you, if you experience the powers given to you when you live integrity, if you understand about all the things you can achieve with integrity, then you will realize that integrity is not just your responsibility, it is your right!

When you feel integrity is your responsibility, you are in the zone of practice; you are a seeker.

When you bring integrity into thinking, you become aware of every anxiety, fear and forgetfulness you go through; you see how you are responsible for creating negativity in your life!

When you understand integrity is your right, you are in the zone of enlightenment!

Whatever you want to achieve, declare that to yourself and do it. When you bring integrity in you, you become aware of all the anxiety you go through, every fear you go through, every forgetfulness you go through. And you will also know how you can align yourself with yourself, and how the world can align with you.

Listen! Many times, if you are afraid of your spouse, you go through the same fear even when you are handling someone in your business. You are afraid of your spouse in the house, because, for anything you do in the house, there will be a fight. So when that becomes a pattern in you, you start believing that you can achieve anything only after a lot of struggle, fight and suffering.

When you start with that mood, even in your business you can't make any decisions. Whenever you think of something new and creative, immediately you remember the same fear and anxiety which you have to go through with your spouse - without even remembering the spouse! Listen: if you remember your spouse, at least you know that it is only with him or her that you need to fight! In your business, there is nobody to fight with you. But the pattern has become so unconscious that you carry the same fear into your profession and business, and you don't make any major decisions.

I will move to the next step on integrity. Just imagine, if everybody around you is integrated with you, if they are very transparent and speak only the truth as it is, how your life will become! It will become heaven! I tell you from my experience, I don't know about others, but for me it will become heaven, Kailāsha!

Everybody wants that life. So when you want that life, why don't you want to give that life to others? You think, 'No, no, I will make everyone integrated, but I will keep my cunning way of planning and doing what I want, and I will keep my own independent, decision-making, strategyplanning lifestyle for me! I will make everyone stable, but I will continue to retain my instability! It is like building the world's tallest building on a sand-bed, without a foundation! What is the use?

An organization's integrity is dependent on their marketing agents and product delivery. An individual's integrity is dependent on his aha���…kāra and mamakāra, how you project yourself and what you feel yourself to be.

I tell you: whatever you create for others, only that will be created for you. Whatever you create for others will be created for you. When you start living integrity, you will become sensitive to all the confusion and suffering you had caused to others because of your lack of integrity. Only when you start living integrity, you will become sensitive to it. You will become intelligent to it.

Only with integrity will you feel you are a man. Otherwise, the truth you know about yourself kills you, even if others don't torture you. If you are living with lack of integrity, the truth you know about you is enough punishment! You don't need

Whatever you want to achieve, declare that to yourself and do it. When you bring integrity, you will know how you can align yourself with yourself, and how the world can align with you!

a separate hell! The truth you know about you is powerful enough to kill you.

There are some things in life whose benefits you can understand only when you start living them. Before that, no word can explain its benefits to you. When you bring integrity with others, you reclaim life itself. When you bring integrity with you, you reclaim Consciousness and Soul.

George Gurdjieff was one of the greatest spiritual masters of the 20th century. Gurdjieff says beautifully, 'You don't have a soul, you have to build it! Being an advaiti (proponent of the philosophy of non-duality), I accept this statement! When you can't experience it, it is equivalent to not having it. See, if you work and earn enough money, you can have your own private jet one day. But today you don't have one. It means that today you D O N 'T have it, that's all! You can't say, 'Any day I can work and have it, so it is with me after all.' No. Now it is not there! I tell you, with integrity, you have to earn it.

There are some things in life that you have to live, taste experience. I can never describe in words the thousands of benefits which integrity can bring. A completely new life can be brought to you by integrity and authenticity, responsibility and enriching.

Whether it is with other human beings, or with yourself, or with God, or with your ishta devata (chosen deity), only when you bring integrity, the relationship starts. Whether it is God or guru or your relatives or friends, the relationship starts only when you bring integrity, not before!

All the boons you want to receive from God can be received only when you maintain the bridge of integrity, not otherwise! All the blessings you want to receive from your guru can be received only when you maintain the bridge of integrity, not otherwise! Otherwise it is impossible.

When you declare your completion and integrity, all boons are showered on you. All blessings are showered on you. Consciousness happens to you, soul happens to you, and Life happens to you.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

When you bring integrity with others, you reclaim life itself. When you bring integrity with you, you reclaim Consciousness and Soul!

The space of expansion is what makes expanding possible. Continuously expanding you without any limit is universal life!

Today I will expand on how the second principle - Authenticity transforms the reality of your life.

The first tattva you need to know is that whatever you experience as reality is only a possibility. Please listen! If you are experiencing your reality as rich and good, that is also only a possibility for something greater that will come. If you are experiencing your reality as bad, poor, with suffering and suffocation, that is also is a possibility for a still worse suffering that will come.

What you experience as reality is only the possibility. If you are experiencing it as good, there is a possibility for a better reality to happen, and if you are experiencing it as bad, there is a possibility for something even worse to happen. But do not ever think that the reality you are experiencing is reality. No! It is just the possibility. If you are experiencing fear, be very clear, it is only a possibility

for greater fear that will come. If you are experiencing courage, then be very clear that it is only the possibility for the greater courage that will come. Everything you experience as reality is just the possibility!

As you yourself are only a possibility that has not yet become reality, what you experience is also only a possibility that has not yet become reality. You realize that it is 'your' reality – anything you experience is not the reality. As long as you remain a possibility that still needs to be opened, experienced and explored, your reality also remains a possibility.

If you live authenticity, you will support your right possibilities to happen. If not, you will allow your unconscious possibilities to open. That is all! Understand the essence of life. You are only a possibility. Your experience is also a possibility.

One of the biggest mistakes you make in your life is thinking that you are still a possibility, but your life is a reality! That is why you feel weak. Your life is not a stone wall that is already built. It is a wax model that is getting ready! Understand, the reality you experience is not a stone wall that is already built. It is only a wax model that is getting ready. Authenticity is the intelligence to alter your possibility consciously, in the right way. Authenticity is a great possibility for you to alter your life in the right way.

Let me expand on authenticity. Authenticity is you being established in the peak of your capability and responding to life from who you perceive yourself to be for yourself, who you project yourself to be for others, and what others expect you to be for them.

Whatever you perceive about you is only a possibility. If you think you are a swami, a good person, a nice person, even that is only a possibility for a greater saint to happen. If you think that you are filled with jealousy, dirt, junk, disease, depression and what not, that is also not reality. It is a possibility for greater disease, depression, and disorders to happen!

Now, almost all of us experience our self as a mixture of both. You experience yourself as a mixture of both – a little health and a little disease, a little goodness and a little badness, a little joy and a little depression, a little fight and a little reconciliation, a little wealth and a little poverty. So you are a possibility for any extreme. You are a possibility for any possibility. When you are in the state of possibility for any possibility, you are called a seeker.

A seeker is a person who is a possibility for any possibility. If you have already become a sinner, you can't be a seeker. If you are already a saint, you can't be a seeker. If you perceive the possibility for both as a possibility in your reality, you are a seeker. It means that you do not know which side you are going to take, you do not know what your life is going to be.

Most of us experience ourselves as a possibility for both possibilities and every possibility. I have

A seeker is a person who is a possibility for any possibility!

seen people planning to enter into politics even at the age of 60, and thinking that they will become Prime Minister. I have seen people at the age of 70 wanting to start some business, and imagining that they will become the world's richest individuals. So we all feel we are a possibility for all possibility.

Please listen, you are a possibility for many possibilities, and your life is also possibility for many possibilities. Nothing has as yet become reality. It has not yet become reality. But all your suffering is because you think life has become reality. It has not. Because still you are in the mode of trial and error, life is also giving you time, life is also waiting.

Authenticity is the right way of creating your life's possibilities. If you have not yet built the building, you are just sitting and waiting, the empty land is a possibility for any type of construction. The same land can become a hospital, a school, an ashram, a temple or a house; it can become anything. Empty land is a possibility. Same way, your life is also a possibility. Authenticity is the right architect. If your life is an empty land, bring in authenticity as the architect, or the empty land will become a wasteland. Bring authenticity as the architect, so that the empty land can realize its ultimate possibility. Let it not become a wasteland.

If you feel that you are working better than last year, you are thinking more clearly than last year, you are experiencing more than last year, you are more active than last year, you are more energetic than last year - whatever may be your age, you are growing younger. If you think that you are more tired than last year, you are sicker than last year, you are more depressed than last year, you are less energetic than last year - whatever may be your age, you have started travelling towards death; you have started ageing. Ageing can start happening even at

18, and anti-ageing can start happening even at 90. Ageing or anti-ageing has nothing to do with the calendar. When number of years that are passing is not making you tired or retired, you are kaalakaala, one who has conquered time.

Authenticity will make you better and better with every passing day. Authenticity has so much power, that when you are living authenticity, every third day you will feel that you are becoming new, new, new. New possibilities are opening, new experiences are happening. Authenticity will make you feel stronger and stronger every day; it will make you experience new-new possibilities. It will open up new-new possibilities continuously.

Bring the right architect. Bring authenticity. You will continuously expand. You will grow in health, you will grow in energy, you will grow in possibility, you will grow in thinking, you will grow in every level. So you will be growing younger! Authenticity is the direct technique for growing younger.

Authenticity makes you grow younger in your inner space, because every day the way you think about you is expanding, the way you perceive you is expanding, the way you experience you is growing. When authenticity happens to you, your possibilities continuously expand; your mamakara

You are a possibility for many possibilities, and your life is also possibility for many possibilities. Authenticity is the right way of creating your life's possibilities!

(inner image) gets newly built. When the mamakara is newly built, the possibility is completely new.

With authenticity, the very source of how you cognize you is transformed. When that source is growing, you are growing younger. You become kaalakaala. Authenticity has the power to continuously expand you. I can give you hundreds of examples. The way you perceive yourself today, and the way you will perceive yourself tomorrow, if you achieve something that you think you can't achieve – both will be completely different. When your perception about you is transformed, your possibility in life is transformed. When the possibility in life is transformed, the possibility of everything is transformed.

Listen! When your cognition is broken to pieces from inside, life is happening. Life is happening! If it is broken from outside, death is happening. If an egg is broken from outside, life is killed, it is death. If the life inside the egg is not authentic to life, even a breeze can roll the egg and break it from outside. The grass which is moving in the breeze can break the egg from outside; death will happen. If the life inside the egg is authentic, it will grow from inside and break the shell and come out; then no breeze can kill it. It will eat the grass and walk through the breeze!

The amount of authenticity you carry in your cognition makes the shell break from inside. Continuously, new-new-new possibilities happen. Your old cognitions about you are broken for good. Sometime your cognitions will be broken by failures - then you are inauthentic, you are shrinking, you are getting destroyed. If your cognition is broken by goodness, you are becoming authentic. Inauthenticity is the corruption that can happen in your soul. Don't allow it.

A corrupt official takes away your confidence in the whole system. A corrupt politician takes away your confidence in the whole country. A corrupt leader takes away your confidence in society. A corrupt consciousness takes away your confidence in life itself. Don't allow the worst corruption which can happen on Consciousness, which is inauthenticity.

Listen! If you don't bring authenticity, inauthenticity is waiting to take you over. Because you trained yourself for so many years with inauthenticity, inauthenticity is waiting to take you over. Bring authenticity continuously; expand how you feel about you, how you project yourself to others, and how others experience you. Go on expanding, go on expanding. Authenticity is the possibility of life in you.

It is authenticity which constantly opens the possibilities in you. New-new-new doors of life open in your health, in your wealth, in your relationships. In whatever form you perceive your life, in whatever way you measure your life - authenticity brings life into everything! Authenticity literally makes you a being with a thousand heads and eyes, a thousand hands and legs - sahasra sheersha purushah sahasraaksha sahasrapaad. Authenticity can create your life with so many possibilities.

Listen! When your cognition is broken to pieces from inside, life is happening! If it is broken from outside, death is happening!

At every step, when your cognition about you changes, the way you project yourself to others changes, and the way you fulfill others' expectations about you changes. Authenticity means bringing your perception about you to the peak, bringing the way you show yourself to others to the peak, being at the peak in fulfilling the way others want you to be for them.

Without authenticity, life is dangerous, with authenticity you are dangerous even to dangers! No danger can come to you. With authenticity, death will say that you are dangerous to him! When you are at such a high level of authenticity, Death is killed.

If your cognition about you is broken by failure, it means you are shrinking. If your cognition about you is broken by goodness, your cognition is growing, expanding. Life is happening. How you perceive you and how you project you to others has to expand, just like the universe. The universe is constantly expanding. It is constantly expanding into Expansion itself. It is expanding into Expansion!

You may ask, how can the universe expand? Into what it can expand? I tell you, it is expanding into Expansion. Expansion is the space into which it is expanding. Either today or tomorrow, the scientists who are doing research in this field will come to this conclusion.

Many conclusions which Swami Vivekananda made and delivered in the fields of physics and psychology were proved true many years later. In the same way, some day in the future, people who do research in this field will prove what I am saying, but I am giving you the conclusion right now. The universe is expanding into Expansion itself. It is expanding into Expansion. There is no separate space.

You don't know where the things sucked into a black hole go. Whatever goes into a black hole, nobody knows where they go. They disappear into the black hole itself. Whatever comes out of Big Bang, nobody knows where it comes from. Black hole goes into black hole; Big Bang explodes into Big Bang. The whole universe with its Big Bangs and black holes - nobody knows where it is expanding. I tell you, it is expanding into Expansion itself ! It is expanding into Expansion itself. In course of time, science will prove what I am saying.

Listen! Expansion is the space in which expanding can happen. Authenticity is the space where Life can happen. Here, because of the air, the words I am uttering are travelling and reaching your ears. Listening is happening. The space of air makes listening possible. The space of expansion makes expanding possible. The space of authenticity makes life possible! The possibility of authenticity makes life possible. Continuously expanding you without any limit before your eyes is universal life.

If you see the end of your life before your eyes, you are an atheist. If you see the end of your life in front of your mind, you are a materialist. If you are able to see your end in front of your emotion, your visualization, you may be called a seeker. If you don't see the end, but just go on expanding with authenticity, your life is universal life. You are a jeevan mukta, you are living enlightenment!

If your cognition about you is broken by failure, it means you are shrinking. If your cognition about you is broken by goodness, your cognition is growing, expanding. Life is happening!

First bring this possibility of expansion in your cognition about you. Not as imagination or visualization. I just know I don't have death! I just know I don't have death and I will go on expanding, doing that for which I assumed this body. I will go on delivering that for which I assumed this body. I tell you, this can become your experience also; just remove tiredness and boredom form your inner space. That is all!

It has been a long time since somebody openly came out and declared the power of these Vedic truths to which human beings need to listen. I tell you, even if you just listen to somebody declaring these Vedic truths, your Consciousness feels the sweet taste. The authenticity of the declaration does not even need to be verified. The very declaration brings so much of sweetness to your consciousness. Authenticity brings inspiration to your consciousness.

shraddha – authenticity - continuously connects you with you, and with your highest possibility. Life is for realizing that possibility. Life is for realizing the Self. Life is for realizing itself. Tiredness and boredom are your enemies which stop authenticity from happening in you. Drop this to bring authenticity in whatever you are; how you feel about you, how you project yourself to others and how others want you for them. In all this three, bring yourself to your peak.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

You need to know that there are simple solutions which exist for any problem you have in your life. Most of the time, you suffer with fears which you can't imagine. What you can imagine is always a solvable problem. That is why you constantly carry the fear of unsolvable problems.

Reality is nothing but your alliance with the Real.

Listen: it is not your experience of the Real, it is your alliance with the Real. Whatever is real, whatever you need to experience, is there on one side. Whatever you want to experience is there on the other side. These two having an alliance and coming to a conclusion is Reality.

Many times, people think that all these intellectual truths and ideas are not required. I tell you - No! Your whole life is nothing but intellectual clarity. You don't go and put your hand in the electricity socket. Why? Because you know that you will be killed. Why don't you go and put your hand in the fire? Because you know that you will be killed. So intellectual clarity, intellectual understanding, is required for life.

If somebody is teaching you that all these big principles and intellectual jugglery is not required, then know that they are trying to keep you

in darkness. Maybe they do not know how to expand and explain these principles. Or they do not have the patience to understand or make you understand.

Please listen: just like there are simple rules like 'Don't touch fire and you will not be burnt,' in the same way, simple rules exist to be out of suffering. Simple rules exist to be successful. It is so unfortunate that you are never allowed to believe that there are simple rules existing to be out of suffering and to be in completion and to be successful. Are you struggling in a big way not to be burnt by the fire and not to be electrocuted? No! You don't struggle! It becomes your lifestyle when you understand and start living.

Listen, in the same way, there are simple rules to make what you want as reality, to make your life as you want, and to be successful in life. It is so unfortunate that neither have we been told that it is possible, nor do we try to make it possible. So we continue to suffer, and we think, 'All this knowledge, all these ideas, are not for me! I am an ordinary housewife. I am an ordinary man, a householder. How will I be able to understand all these things?'

Can you say, 'I am an ordinary electrician; how can I understand about electricity? It's okay, let me be electrocuted'? No! 'I am an ordinary housewife, I

Whatever you need to experience is on one side. Whatever you want to experience is on the other side. These two having an alliance and coming to a conclusion is Reality!

just cook everyday. How do I know anything about fire? Let me get burnt.' You can't say this. When you are going to cook, you learn the rules and you learn how to handle fire. When you are about to become an electrician, you learn the rules of electricity. Better learn to make your reality before you enter your life! And you can learn. That is the good news. It is not as difficult as was told to you. That is the good news. Reality is nothing but your alliance with the Real.

How many of you cognize this? Listen! How many of you cognize all this? The moment these big truths which need to be realized are told to you, you shut yourself off ! You say, 'This is not for me. I can't understand. Even if I understand, I can't practice all of this. I tried. This is not going to work for me.' How many of you shut yourself off like this?

Understand, this is the way you keep yourself out of spiritual truths and transformation and spiritual realization. You don't say, 'Oh, how to be out of the fire? I can't understand all this. I am an ordinary cook. I will go and cook and get burnt.' No! You learn about the fire when you want to cook. You learn about electricity when you want to be an electrician. Why can't you learn about life when you want to live? Learn.

The first truth I wanted to share with you today is, 'Reality is your alliance with the Real'. If you are more powerful than what you consider as real, you can manipulate the reality. You can make reality as you want. Your word will change the world. Until then, the world will be changing your word.

You need to know that there are simple solutions which exist for any problem you have in your life. It can be as difficult as you imagine. And you can't imagine! Most of the time, you suffer with fears which you can't imagine. What you can imagine is always a solvable problem. That

is why you constantly carry the fear of unsolvable problems.

It is so sad that the owner of the house has to have an alliance with the mosquitoes and lizards that come to occupy the house! That is what your status is! You are the owner of the reality, but you have made an alliance with the illusion and delusion which came to occupy the reality – like the mosquitoes and lizards in your house! If you, being the owner of your house, make an agreement with the weeds, mosquitoes and lizards which come to occupy your house, how foolish is that?

In the same way, all the problems in your life come to occupy your life. You are the owner of your life. Don't have an alliance or agreement with your problems out of your ignorance. You say, 'No, I built the house, but before I came and started living in it, they all came and started living here. They are all senior to me. How will I be able to drive them out? And even if I drive them out of one room, they go and stay in another room. If I drive them out of that room, they go to another room. If I call the police, they are not helping me either!'

You need to know that you don't need a police department, you don't need 911, for mosquitoes and lizards! You just need mosquito repellant coil and insect spray, that's all! First drop the wrong

Reality is your alliance with the Real'. If you are more powerful than what you consider as real, you can manipulate the reality. Until then, the world will be changing your word!

concepts and ideas you carry about your problems. They are not more powerful than you. They are not the owners of your life. You are the owner. Don't try to have an alliance with the illegal occupants of your own house. Don't give them too much power.

The first thing you need to understand is this: you are not able to make what you want as reality because of your ignorance, not because of not having energy. It is not powerlessness. It is ignorance. You have enough power and enough energy. It is your ignorance which is responsible for your suffering.

Many times you think that powerlessness is the reason for your suffering. You think that even though you know what your problem is, you can't change it. That is wrong! How many of you think that you know the reason for your problems, but you still can't change it? You are wrong. You still don't know the reason for your problems. Only ignorance can be the reason for all suffering. You are powerful enough! You are powerful enough to utter both the right word and the wrong word. It is out of ignorance that you utter the wrong word.

If you think you know the reason why you are not able to change, but you are not powerful enough to change things what you want, that is the first mistake you are making. Your enemy makes you feel that somebody else is your enemy, and he goes on winning the game by attacking you. Because you are thinking that somebody else is your enemy, you are fighting with your imaginary enemy. If you think you know why you have problems, why you are powerless to transform, you are wrong. You don't know – that is the real problem. Ignorance is your enemy.

Listen! Powerlessness is not your enemy. Lack of energy is not your enemy. 'You are powerless' is an idea given to you to keep you from discovering your real enemy. You are powerful enough. You are empowered enough to live and face life. Only ignorance is your enemy. The first thing you need to know is this: you are powerful enough to make what you want as reality. You are only ignorant.

If you think you are powerless, you will be working to achieve power, which means you are working in the wrong direction. You need to work to get knowledge, not power. You have enough power. Sometimes you have too much power, and you use that same power to bind yourself. You have too much rope, and you think, how can I waste it? - so you tie yourself with it! Because you have too many chains, and you want to show everyone that you have so many chains, and all those chains are beautiful, pure gold, you tie them all around yourself. You tie all of them around your body and finally you find that you are not able to move. And then you tell everyone, 'See, see, see how many gold chains I have!' True - but you are not able to move!

Authenticity first helps you identify your real enemy. Your real enemy is ignorance, not powerlessness. I have seen people fighting with wrong enemies their whole life. When you feel that you don't have power, you take up many

You are not able to make what you want as reality because of your ignorance. It is not powerlessness, but your ignorance which is responsible for your suffering!

paths, which will really not solve the issue. Everybody thinks that if you have miraculous powers, siddhis, you will immediately solve all the problems of your life. No! I have seen some hatha yogis, they are so powerful - but that does not mean they have solved their problems. It does not mean that they made whatever they want become a reality in their life, because they are caught with the wrong enemy.

Ignorance is your real enemy, and it is nicely diverting your attention, saying, 'Powerlessness is your enemy. Do you know the reason why you are not able to project what you want? Powerlessness! Go catch power, have more power.' But the reality is, you are already suffering with too much power.

Authenticity will help you identify your real enemy. Your real enemy is not powerlessness; it is ignorance. I am able to awaken the kundalini of thousands of people just by giving them the right knowledge! When the right knowledge is given, anybody can immediately experience kundalini awakening. There is no such thing as powerlessness.

What is authenticity? Building your own identity about you to the peak! What do you want to become? Every one of you, deep down, has a fantasy about you becoming all-powerful, all-knowing, sarvajna. So now build that peak inner image, and project the peak outer image, and take the responsibility to fulfill others' image about you, that's all. That's all!

I tell you, authenticity is the strategy plan for your life. The quality of cunningness may be useful for a short time - a few days, a few years, or a few lives, but not for all lives! If you learn and develop the quality of authenticity, it is the strategy planning for lives after lives after lives.

I tell you, make authenticity as a pattern in you, as the strategy planning in you, as a strategy planning truth in you. It will be the greatest service you will be doing to yourself for lives after lives after lives. That will be the right thing you will be doing to yourself for lives after lives after lives.

For any problem you have, look for the solution in the direction of knowledge, not in the direction of power or infrastructure.

The person who feels that his problem lies in not having enough infrastructure is a vaishya.

• The person who feels that powerlessness is his problem is a kshatriya.
• The person who does not know who his enemy is, what his problem is, is 'confused', the fourth category.
• The person who knows that ignorance is his problem is a brahmana.

Know the real enemy. You will solve your problems.

Authenticity is the right ingredient with which your inner personality can be built. The material with which you build is going to decide the longevity and the strength of the building. In the same way,

I am able to awaken the kundalini of people just by giving them the right knowledge! When the right knowledge is given, you can immediately experience kundalini awakening!

the material with which you build your cognition decides the strength of your being. Authenticity is a granite construction. It is the ultimate material with which you can build your cognition.

When you bring authenticity, you will realize that you have the wrong inner image, that is why you are suffering with a wrong outer image and a wrong image of others. If you think that your wrong outer image and wrong image of others is the problem, you are powerless to change both, to fulfill both. Only when you understand that your wrong inner image is the source of the problem, you will understand that only authenticity can solve the issue.

If you have a fever, only medicine can solve the issue, not a million dollars. You say, 'See, I have a million dollars, but my fever is not going down'. You just need two dollars to get the medicine and have it. But at the end of the day, only medicine is going to clear the fever, not a million dollars. A million dollars may help you get the medicine. Sometimes the million dollars itself will be the reason for the fever! You may be suffering too much with it, you may be too stressed about it.

So don't have ignorance about your enemy. Ignorance about your enemy is the worst enemy. Not knowing the right enemy is the worst enemy. Have the knowledge about who is your right enemy.

When you build your personality with authenticity, when you start practicing authenticity, you will realize the truth that your wrong inner image is your real enemy, and that can be cleared only by knowledge, not by power. What you need immediately is knowledge, not power.

It is on your mamakara, your inner image, that you need to work. I go one step further and tell you - I am not promoting any superstition, but if

you want money in the outer world, relationships in the outer world, anything in the outer world, first sit and alter the inner world. I am not asking you not to work in the outer world. Alter the inner world. You will know how to work rightly. You will work and have what you want. If you are directly trying to attract or attack the outer world, you are in the wrong gear.

With the reverse gear, no matter how much you press the accelerator, you are only going to go back. Just change to the right gear first, and then you can press the accelerator.

We are all so busy that we think, 'Oh, I am not pressing the accelerator hard enough, that is why the vehicle is not going forward!' Fool! Change the gear! You press the accelerator with more force and you even pour in more petrol! You check everything other than the gear! Just unclutch and change the gear! Your tank is already full. You are already pressing the accelerator to the maximum. Your problem is ignorance, not powerlessness.

Changing the reverse gear into the right gear is nothing but working on your mamakara. Pressing the accelerator more and more is like projecting your ahankara. Pouring in more petrol is like trying to fulfill others' anyakara. All that is not going to directly help you now. The first thing you need to do is change the gear, for heaven's sake! Work on

When you build your personality with authenticity, you will realize the truth that your wrong inner image is your real enemy, and that can be cleared only by knowledge, not by power!

The essence of today's satsang is: whatever you may think as your problem in life, you need to work on your inner image about you. You need to learn authenticity. Any other effort you are making is only like pressing the accelerator, or pouring in more and more petrol without changing the gear, and expecting the vehicle to go forward in reverse gear! Move your vehicle in the forward direction!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

When you expand what you think of as you, you directly expand what you project as you, and also expand and fulfill what others expect from you. Your mamakara kept in front of Consciousness is seen as the reality in life. Authenticity expands the mamakara and transforms your reality!

Today, I will speak on the unique equation that exists between authenticity and the reality of your life.

When you expand what you think of as you, you directly expand what you project as you, and also expand and fulfill what others expect from you. Just as a film that is kept in front of the projector light is seen as reality on the screen, your mamakara (inner image) kept in front of Consciousness is seen as the reality in life. Authenticity expands the mamakara. Authenticity transforms the slide that is kept in front of the projector. So naturally, that transforms the mamakara.

When you start to constantly work on authenticity every day, you are reminded about expanding your mamakara - what you perceive as you, what you experience as you and what you feel as you. When you continuously expand what you feel as you, and when you are working on what you perceive as you, so many miraculous changes will happen

in the way you experience your reality! Life will change. How life responds to you will change. How you perceive life will change. Everything will change!

With authenticity, you have to work on your inner image every day. I tell you - working on your inner image is excitement! Thinking that you cannot change your inner image anymore is boredom**.** As long as you are interested in developing your inner image, you continue to have life even if your body drops. The day you decide that you can't develop your inner image anymore, you are dead, even if your body is functioning! So develop the inner image. When you start developing your inner identity and that brings the result in the outer world, you will be excited to grow spiritually. Seeing that the transformation you make in the inner world is seen as a result in the outer world is spirituality!

The joy and the excitement you feel is because, the moment you start the transformation in the inner world, the outer world also changes. When you work on the inner identity, life is exciting. When you decide that you can't transform your inner world anymore, it is death. When you give up on you, even if you are still having the body, you are dead! When you don't give up on you, even if your body drops, you continue to live! Don't give up on you! Develop your inner identity through integrity

Working on your inner image is excitement! Thinking that you cannot change your inner image anymore is boredom.

and authenticity.

Listen! If you consider your life as an industry, and your inner image as the product, how you project yourself to the outer world is marketing, and what others expect from you is feedback from customers! You should constantly get feedback and develop the product. This is the only way you will be alive in the market. If you are working with humanity, this is the law of life.

Constantly work on the mamakara; don't give up on you. The moment you stop getting feedback from customers and developing the product, you are dead! Only the tomb needs to be built on you; the coffin needs to be closed, that's all! Listen! However big your brand may be, however big you may be, even if you are a big established brand, if you stop receiving feedback from customers and developing your inner identity, society will start rejecting you!

People sometime ask me, 'Why is it that many of the big traditional monasteries and religious organizations have become irrelevant to humanity and human beings?'

The reason is this: when you think that you are a big established brand and you don't need to get customer feedback and develop the product anymore, customers start rejecting you! They don't accept you just because you are a big brand. They do try you if you are a big brand, but only if they see that the product is worthy will they continuously consume it. Otherwise, they will dump it after trying it. If you don't take the customer feedback, the customers will be giving their feedback to others, which is very dangerous!

Part 15: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!_English_part_15.md

Listen! If you don't take the customer feedback, others will get the feedback! This is very dangerous. Even without you knowing it, your brand is destroyed. Even without you knowing it, you have already collapsed! That is a most unfortunate thing. If you want your life to be successful, then constantly get feedback from the customers. Get others' expectations about you. For all those who are involved in your life, get their expectations about you.

We all ask the question – 'Why should I fulfill others' expectations about me? The world has so much of selfishness. Why should I bother about what others want from me? Why?'

Listen! When you always want others to live as you want, and others to fulfill your expectations, is it not others' right to expect the same from you? Decide to do this, at least for whoever is involved in your life and in whose lives you are involved. Decide! Life is fulfilled only when you fulfill others' expectations; at least for those from whom you have an expectation.

You do not need to fulfill the expectation of a person from whom you have no expectation – like somebody on the street. But you have to fulfill the expectations of people from whom you have expectations. If you have an expectation about a person, then that person has the right to have an

Decide! Life is fulfilled only when you fulfill others' expectations!

expectation about you. Listen! When you have an expectation from a person, they have a right to have an expectation from you.

I have taken the responsibility of so many disciples. Now I have to fulfill all of them. Now I have to be responsible for millions of disciples happening! Of course, I am taking the responsibility. So constantly expand your inner identity. Expanding the identity which you project as you to others, and taking the responsibility to fulfill what others expect from you, is authenticity.

I tell you, when you take responsibility to fulfill what others expect from you, the whole brahmaanda expresses through you, the whole cosmos expresses through you! You will have extraordinary powers, because it is directly seva - service to others. Whenever you serve others with a feeling of responsibility, without having any other motive, the cosmos celebrates your existence! It just celebrates your existence! When you decide to continuously expand your identity, the way you project yourself to others, and take responsibility to fulfill it, your reality suddenly starts changing. Your reality becomes better and better.

What is your reality? It is just your perception - your perception about what you feel as you, what you project to others as you, and what others expect about you. When you practice authenticity, you naturally have to continuously develop what you feel as you. The only way to develop your inner identity about you is through integrity. With more and more integrity, you will be purifying your inner image more deeply. When you take the responsibility to fulfill others' expectation about you, you become more and more responsible.

Understand, when you start practicing authenticity, then integrity and responsibility also start happening automatically. And you can't give

up on you, so you have to continuously enrich you. So enriching also happens automatically. You can't give up on others, so you have to enrich them. So enriching others also happens automatically. I tell you - every day, improve the identity you carry about you by continuously developing your integrity.

Many teachers tell you, 'However much you listen, unless you practice, it won't help you.'

I tell you now, 'However much you try to practice, unless you listen, it won't help you!'

Whenever you serve others with a feeling of responsibility, without having any other motive, the cosmos celebrates your existence!

That is why I talk very slowly. Unless you give your authentic listening, you will not be able to listen; you will miss it. Only authentic listeners can listen to what I talk! When you are sitting in the satsang every morning, improve your listening and listen authentically. Only if you listen will practicing be possible. Authenticity starts with listening, continues with listening and continues with listening! Human beings miss life when they miss listening.

J. Krishnamurti says, 'Listening is God'. Buddha's first teaching is 'Right listening'. In Vedanta, the first principle is shravana – listening. The second principle is manana – intranalyzing. The third principle is nidhidhyaasana - living and radiating!

I request all the satsangis all over the world, take this as your life. Every morning during satsang, sit with authenticity and listen. Listen! You will see miraculous transformations happening in your body and mind. Listening is God! Just by listening, you experience God!

I want people to gather everywhere, in every village, and start practicing these four principles - integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. This is the best way for human resource development. Hindu youth need to be given training in integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. When you teach integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, and practice it in your life, the amount of joy you feel and the expansion you feel and the experience you feel is unimaginable! So much can be brought forth from your being just with these four principles!

All the youth who are watching the satsang now, I request all of you start groups in your villages to teach these four principles and develop human life! Village centers should be created which practice this dharma. Temples should be created. People should start living these principles everywhere! Satsang centers, teaching centers, ashrams and monasteries should be created. Hundreds of thousands of sadhus (holy men) who are living these principles should be created. Hundreds and thousands of volunteers who are teaching these principles should be created.

See, even now, the only idea which does not allow you to experience your maximum potential is this, 'Why should I do so much when others do not do as much for me?' Fool! If others do not do, they are the losers. If you do, you are the winner! I continue to radiate my authenticity, and I am going to expand my possibility for others, and my possibility for myself. Naturally, society has to respond authentically to me. There is no other way!

Constantly expanding your possibility for you and your possibility for others is authenticity. Expand your possibility for you and your possibility for others. This whole sangha is a training ground to make you experience authenticity. Let authenticity become your muscle memory and bio-memory. Let you continuously enrich yourself.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Listening is God! Just by listening, you experience God!

Why you are not able to get out of failure? Because, a hundred times you have committed to yourself that you are going to be a failure. Then, naturally, your whole energy will be working only to fulfill the commitment you gave to you that you are a failure.

I welcome you all with my love and respects.

Today's subject is: what can these four principles cause in you when you practice them with integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching?

When you start practicing integrity with integrity, you will be aware of every thought you are having. Most of the time you are caught in fear, jealousy, anger or lust before you even become aware.

Many times, people come and tell me, 'I am not able to get out of my fear.' Please listen! Why you are not able to get out? Because you already committed to yourself many times with the same negativity. For example, you say to yourself, 'I am going to be destroyed, I am going to be destroyed, I am going to be destroyed. This is the way it is going to happen. I am going to be a loser, loser, loser!' It means, a hundred times you have committed to yourself that you are going to be a loser.

Then, naturally, your whole energy will be working only to fulfill the commitment you gave to you that you are a loser.

Only once if you say, 'I am a winner,' that will look too silly. It is as if you are saying it just for the sake of argument. Sometimes, you know that your spouse is going to win the whole argument, but just to record your opposition, you make some statement, even knowing that you are going to be a failure! That is exactly the way it will look, if you utter to yourself only once that you are a winner, after uttering a hundred times that you are a loser! It is your wrong commitments to you that makes you feel that you are a loser. I tell you - other than your negative commitments to you, you don't have any enemy in your life. Just understand and liberate yourself. I am not teaching you. I am not inspiring you. I am not ordering you! I am requesting you.

I know the space of utter positivity, complete positivity. I know that space. I have cherished that space. I am cherishing that space. I am exactly in the mood of the rishi (seer ) when he roared at the peak of his voice, 'shrunvantu vishwe amritasya putraaha vedaahamekam purusham mahaantam - O sons of Immortality, I know the path to it. Wake up and start achieving it!'

I tell you, whenever you utter a negative word to yourself, for example, when you say, 'I may be a failure, I may lose, I may not achieve it,' immediately remember that it is a negative commitment you are giving to you. Drop it. Your mind may say, 'No! If I suddenly fail, what can I do? At least if I think through the whole thing beforehand, I will be ready to face the situation.'

Understand, there is no such thing as being ready for failure, because if there is going to be failure at all, it will always be from the unexpected zone! So, all your expectations and pre-commitments towards your failure is not precaution. It is not going to help you in any way.

People tell me, 'I don't want to be surprised when the failure comes.' First of all, it is not going to come if you don't keep planning for it! Second, even the fear that you won't be able to handle it is just one more fear, one more negative commitment that you give to yourself. See the layers and layers of negative commitment you give to you? First, failure is not going to come if you don't create self-fulfilling negative prophecies. Second, even if it comes, you have all the capacity to face it. There is no such thing as not being able to face failure if it comes unexpectedly. That is one more negative commitment you give to you. How many of you cognize that this is the only logic you constantly use to create negative patterns in you? Getting it? That itself is one more negative commitment you give yourself !

Even when Death comes to you, it is going to come suddenly only! And you are going to face it. Everything you call as failure is going to come suddenly only, and you are going to face it. There are millions of times when what you call as failure came to you suddenly, and you have faced it. The idea that you will not be able to face it if something happens unexpectedly is just one more negative commitment you gave to you.

You don't have any enemy in your life, other than your negative commitments to you. Just understand and liberate yourself!

Now sit and undo, layer by layer, the negative commitments that you gave to you, and complete them. You have to remember and complete and drop. Only then can you really conquer it. You can't just say, 'I hereby drop all the negative commitments I gave to me.' No. First you need to know all the negative commitments you gave to you. That will happen only when you start with you, and start doing the completion.

Once you drop the negative commitment that you gave to you, 'I cannot face failure if it comes by surprise,' when you complete and drop that negative commitment, then you cannot justify your planning for failure, your negative plans, in any form, in any way.

'I cannot face failure if it comes by surprise,' is the only reason you go on imagining and visualizing different possibilities of failure, and give negative commitments to yourself. This is one of the important clicks you need to have today. First thing - failure is not going to come. Second thing - you are capable of facing it if it comes. So, drop fantasizing about failures. Drop visualizing about failures. Drop giving yourself negative commitments about failures.

When you decide to drop the negative commitment you gave to you that you cannot face unexpected fears, integrity starts happening in you. Negativity starts dropping from you, and you start experiencing the space of positivity. First you need to remove the reasons why you give negative commitments to yourself. Only then will you stop giving negative commitments to you!

First, do you cognize that every negative word you utter to yourself is a negative commitment given to yourself? Second, do you cognize that it is the fear of facing unexpected failures that makes you give negative commitments to yourself continuously? Third, do you cognize that even

the idea that you cannot face unexpected failures is just one more negative commitment that you give to you? That's all! Now you know the solution! Drop the deeper layers of negative commitments you give to you. Drop them fast. Complete with yourself.

As I said, I am not teaching you, I am not inspiring you, I am not impressing you, I am just requesting you! Because I know that if positivity can be brought into one mind, what it can do for the whole world! So much can be done!

One river, Ganga, gives life to one-tenth of the human population on planet Earth! Do you know? One-tenth of the world population lives in the lap of Ganga! The river itself is only a few kilometers in width, and maybe a few thousand kilometers in length, but it can give life to one tenth of humanity! I tell you, if you measure the land that Ganga occupies from beginning to end, it will not be onethousandth or even one-millionth of planet Earth's size. But it gives shelter to one-tenth of humanity!

In the same way, even if one person starts living positivity, he is no more one person; he can be a shelter for positivity for one-tenth of humanity! Just let your heart decide not to bring negativity as a thinking pattern, and not to bring negative commitments as a lifestyle to you. This is the basic life science. This is the owner's manual for life!

Just let your heart decide not to bring negativity as a thinking pattern, and not to bring negative commitments as a lifestyle to you. This is the basic life science!

These four principles are the owner's manual for life! Just like you have to read the owner's manual before you start driving a car, or you may end up in danger or lose life itself, you have to know these four principles to their depth in life before you start living life. This is the owner's manual for life.

How many of you feel that you wasted too much time giving yourself negative self-prophecies, due to this one fear that you cannot face surprise failures? How much time and life is wasted! And because of all the fears that you carry, everybody around you has to suffer and believe that this is the lifestyle! Every schoolteacher who suffers with a lack of integrity and makes negative commitments to himself transmits the same thing to all his students.

The whole of science has to be rewritten in eN-glish, the language of living enlightenment! The whole of history has to be rewritten in eNglish. The whole of engineering has to be rewritten in eN-glish. Every field has to be rewritten in eN-glish. Whatever may be the equation, say A plus B minus C multiplied into D multiplied by F multiplied by G, at the end of the equation if you just put 'x 0' - multiplied by zero, what do you get? Zero! Anything multiplied by zero is zero! In the same way, even if your life has had any amount of negative prophecies and negative commitments till now, just put 'x integrity' - multiplied by integrity, from now. It will all become equivalent to integrity!

But people say, 'No, no, Swamiji! You don't know the complications I created in my life! A plus B, minus C, multiplied by A, divided by C into B, divided by ABCDE…is equal to what? My life is that complicated! You don't know!'

No! Whatever it may be, if you just put 'x 0' multiplied by zero, the whole thing is zero! In the same way, whatever lack of integrity, negative commitments or self-fulfilling prophecies you have created in your mind as past complications, now just say, 'x integrity'(multiplied by integrity). Over! It is just equivalent to positivity and integrity. How many of you cognize what I am saying? You got it! You got it. Now start living it, that's it!

This is one of the important thorns removed from your consciousness. Now the space of positivity will simply expand and expand and become an ocean in you! Ganga starts only as a small stream, and it accumulates, accumulates, accumulates water, and becomes a river which is many kilometers wide, and finally becomes the ocean itself ! This is the way the space of positivity also starts in you. If only one person becomes positive, so many people are blessed! The space of positivity happens by the blessing of the master's Kundalini awakening. Because he awakens the Kundalini, this is becoming a reality. If you rest in that space, you will accumulate more and more positivity, and finally become the ocean itself !

Before the invention of the number zero, whatever mathematics was being practiced was completely proven wrong by the invention of zero. How many of you cognize what I am saying? Same way, once our brain evolves to cognize Infinity, all the

Even if your life had large amount of negative commitments till now, just put 'x integrity' - multiplied by integrity, from now. It will all become equivalent to integrity!

mathematics we practice will be proved as a lie overnight. If you are able to catch it, catch it!

The day zero was invented, all the mathematics which was being practiced pre-zero was proven as false. All the theorems, theories, everything was proven untrue. Theorems were proved as dramas, theories were proved as theatrics!

In the same way, very soon, the brains that practice Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Enriching, are going to cognize Infinity and make Infinity a utility, just like zero. My gurukul kids are going to do this, because their brain is beautifully getting awakened with Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Enriching. My gurukul kids will become geniuses! They will cognize the power of Infinity and make Infinity one of the important components of everyday mathematics, just like zero!

When Infinity becomes part of everyday mathematics just like zero, they will prove to the world that all the theories and theorems that we are now practicing, the whole mathematics, is wrong, outdated!

You need a certain brain to cognize zero. Our rishis had it, that is why they were able to cognize zero. In the same way, you need a certain brain to cognize Infinity. Fortunately, I am creating those brains. They will cognize it and make the world cognize it! They are going to cognize Infinity in practical application. They are going to cognize the methods of applying Infinity, just like zero, in our everyday life. Then all the theorems, all the theories on which you built so many things, will simply be proven as false.

I tell you, to cognize Infinity as a usable part of your life just like zero, your brain needs to conquer time and space. Your brain needs to cognize itself independent of the influence of the time and space. The genius Ramanujam, who was a great devotee of Goddess Lakshmi, cognized Infinity. Unfortunately, he was all alone - that is why no one is still able to cognize what he cognized. But with my gurukul kids, I am building a huge number of brains which are ready to cognize Infinity.

Establish yourself in integrity and authenticity. With those fresh eyes, look at everything in your life - your business plans, the profession you are in, your relationships, your decisions about your future, your decisions about your age. Listen! You can decide how long you want to live on planet Earth and you decide in what way you want your reality to be!

Establish yourself in integrity. You will see that your being suddenly cognizes a new life, a new reality. Maya will become outdated. Suddenly, all the pillars based on which the Maya is installed in you will become outdated.

The brain which is established in integrity and authenticity can read any book and understand the truths from that book. It can. Just like how the Paramahamsa swan can separate the water from the milk in a mixture of milk and water, the brain

Establish yourself in integrity. You will see that your being suddenly cognizes a new life, a new reality. Maya will become outdated!

established in integrity can separate truth from untruth. The brain established in integrity and authenticity is Paramahamsa.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Create the best inner space! Just because you have not experienced Consciousness yet, don't think it is not there! I tell you from my experience, you are Consciousness, all-powerful, all-knowing. Before your mind brings negative arguments and denies it, bring positive completions and encourage it. Listen to the truth!

Listen! Everything is experienced by you as per the space you carry.

Everything – your reality of God, reality of yourself, reality of society and reality of universe - is experienced by you as per the space you carry.

• G If you carry the space that you have many births, you will have many births!

• G If you carry the space that you have only one birth, you will have only one birth!

• G If you carry the space that you have soul, you will have soul!

• G If you carry the space that you don't have soul, you will NOT have soul!

• G If you carry the space you have soul, but you are yet to express all those powers, the same will happen to you! The universe is a huge 'Tathaastu!' The universe is a huge wave of 'Tathaastu! - so be it!' So everything is as you create, as you organize, as you arrange! That is why I am telling you - put a little intelligence, time and energy into creating the right space in you.

Whatever you dream in the night, when you are unconscious, is the key to check what space you are in. You need to work and create the right space, till you experience that space even in your dream state. Whether it is the great realities of the cosmos, or the realities of life or the realities of mind, the space you create creates the reality.

That is why, there is no such thing as Ultimate Truth! Whether Shankara is true or Ramanujam is true or Madhava is true or Buddha is true, only you have to decide! They can't decide! Ultimately, all these masters are true, because they tried their best to explain the Truth to the disciples who were sitting in front of them. So the level of the truth they expressed was dependent on the disciples who were listening - or sitting without listening!

When a person carries the space that he will have only one birth, he will have only one birth. When

Everything is experienced by you as per the space you carry. So everything is as you create, as you organize and as you arrange it!

a person carries the space that he will have many births, he will have many births! When a person carries the space that he has a soul, but he is yet to realize the soul, he will be experiencing the same!

That is why I tell you - decide now to create the space for the best possibility. You have a soul, and it can do anything you want! This is the best space. Create it! That will be your reality! I don't want to say that will become your reality; that will be your reality!

The inner space you entertain becomes your reality. The inner space you entertain becomes your life. Listen! Your decision to create the space decides your life. If you create the space that sannyas is possible, it is possible! If you create the space, 'No, No! I cannot control my mind, I cannot control my lust, sannyas is not possible!' - then sannyas is not possible!

When Sri Ramakrishna says sannyas is possible and brahmacharya is the best lifestyle, he is true! When Osho says sannyas is not possible, celibacy is impossible, he is true! If you ask me, 'What is this, Swamiji? How can both be true?,' I will say that both are true! Because the space you create creates the reality. Both of them were speaking for different types of disciples. If you have a strong feeling connection with Ramakrishna and feel Ramakrishna is true in your space, Ramakrishna will become true for you! If you create the strong space that Osho is true in your inner space, you will make Osho as true for you!

Create the best inner space! Just because you have not experienced Consciousness the few times when you looked inside, don't think it is not there. I tell you from my experience. You are Consciousness, all-powerful, all-knowing. Before your mind brings the negative arguments and denies it, bring positive completions and encourage it. Listen to the truth!

Your mind is the mirror of your reality. This is the greatest liberation you can receive. The moment I say that your mind is the mirror of your reality, don't feel powerless. Most of the time, you feel powerless. 'Oh God! My mind! Then what can I do to change my reality?' When you listen to the words that your mind is the mirror of your reality, you should feel, 'Oh God! What liberation! I can change it now! I can change it now.' This is the greatest liberation!

Now spend time with yourself, complete all the negative patterns you are carrying, drop them. Rebuild your mind, your inner space. You are Consciousness! You are Consciousness; allpowerful, all-knowing, always blissful, Sat-Chit-Ananda, Truth-Consciousness-Bliss! Each sannyas name I give you, each spiritual name I give you, is the space you are supposed to create within you.

Today and tomorrow, spend your energy in building the space in you to remove all the obstacles to experience this truth inside you. If you are thinking, 'I cannot make it for Inner Awakening! I don't have money! I don't have time! I don't have the right mentality! I don't have people who will allow me and co-operate with me! The people who are around me don't co-operate. They don't support me!,' now create the space, 'I am Consciousness! It is possible for me! I can create what I want! I can do what I want! I am creating the time I need, the

The space you create creates the reality. Your mind is the mirror of your reality. Rebuild your mind, your inner space and create the space for the best possibility!

mind I need, the money I need, the support I need around me, to do what I want! And I am doing it!'

Don't bring the past record to deny your highest possibility. When you failed in the past, you did not have the intelligence, you did not have the right space. That is why you failed. So the problem is with not having the right space; not with the Truth. So now, try with the right space. You will be successful.

It is like this: if the Central Government has failed, you put the blame on State Government! If the State Government has failed, you put the blame on Central Government! Because of not having the right space, you failed. So, don't put the blame on the truth itself. Truth has not failed. Not applying the truth has failed.

You say, 'No, No! How many times I applied it! It is not working!'

No! Truth has not failed! Not applying the truth has failed! So, if one Government fails, don't put the blame on the other Government.

When you have that mood constantly, 'Not me! Not me!,' you will experience only that! It is your inner space which creates your life, your reality. It is what you think of you and others that creates your reality; it is up to you to allow this reality to function in your life, take over your life. Create the space. You will see that the world responds responsibly and with responsibility! Your inner space is so powerful you can just make anything happen!

Create the space that you are going to win, you are winning, in everything that is happening in your life. Create the space that you are doing it, you are winning; you will just see, the world responds to you! Create the

space that you are Consciousness. Simply all the consciousness of all the people will be connected to you, and it expresses itself ! Only if you have some inauthenticity, you will feel you are different from others. If you are completely authentic, you will understand that the consciousness of you and all the people is one and the same!

You have to create the right space. You can win in any dimension of your life. Whether it is physical health, mental health, confidence, social problems, family problems, any problem in life, just create the right understanding and the right space. Just like that you will win!

It is so unfortunate that we continue to enjoy and cherish self-destructive thoughts, sometimes unconsciously, without even knowing, sometimes consciously, knowing it. It is time we create a highly positive inner space with possibility. You can create the inner space. You can live in that inner space. You can experience that same space in the outer world, everywhere. You can make what you want as reality! This is the essence of what I wanted to say in today's satsang. Listen! Experiment with this truth with sincerity and authenticity. This will become reality in your life.

It is very important that you create the right inner space for enlightenment, for fulfillment. Today and tomorrow, take this as your responsibility.

Don't bring the past record to deny your highest possibility. When you failed in the past, you did not have the intelligence, you did not have the right space!

Sit with yourself. Complete with all the negative patterns. Create the right inner space by completing again and again with yourself by doing swapoornatva, self-completion. Create the right space, right mood, right experience.

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Whenever you listen to the truths about perception, your mind boils. Your mind is afraid to listen. A subtle fear starts running inside your system even to know about perception. Because knowledge of perception demands change now! You don't have time to play the game of 'tomorrow'!

Today I will explore the phenomena of Perception from the perspective of ancient traditions, philosophy, phenomenology and modern science.

Please listen! I am defining perception. 'The way your patterns react and respond to the facts is perception.' Please understand, the way your patterns respond to the facts is perception.

Let me make it more clear. Understand this story:

An old man went to a nearby village and was coming back to his home. From a distance, he saw that his house was on fire. That's all - he literally started boiling and burning, rolling on the ground and crying! One of his sons came to him and said, 'Why are you crying, father?' The old man said, 'Oh, my house is on fire! My house is on fire!'

The son reminded him, 'Don't you remember? Just yesterday we sold the house!'

Immediately, the old man got up, and became completely alright! He was okay! All his suffering, his pain, everything disappeared. Everything became alright for him.

But in a few minutes, the second son came and told him, 'Father, we sold the house, that is true. But the money has still not come to us! We have not yet received the money!'

Immediately, the old man started rolling on the ground and crying, 'Oh, my house is on fire! My house is on fire! My house is on fire!'

Listen! It was the same house burning. For a few minutes, it was a suffering for the person! The next few minutes, it was not a suffering for the same person! Then again it was a suffering! So it is nothing but his perception: how his patterns cognized the happening.

When something happens, if you cognize it just as facts, with just the five senses and without any purpose inside, you are called a 'materialistic idiot'. Your philosophy of living is 'stupid atheism'!

I am trying to give you the essence of philosophy, which is the combination of your patterns and the facts. If the facts are playing a hundred percent role, you don't have any pattern. I wanted all of you to understand - not having a pattern, and

The way your patterns react and respond to facts is perception!

having complete consciousness, is great. But some people neither have consciousness nor have patterns. They are non-responders who are soaked in dullness! I am talking about them. They live in stupid materialism with their life philosophy as stupid atheism. Every one of you lives with a philosophy - whether you understand it or not! If you don't understand the philosophy with which you are cognizing life, be very clear: you are a stupid atheist.

I can give you one more example, rajju-sarpa nyaaya. It means, if you are walking in a forest at midnight, and there is a rope in front of you, naturally, what will you feel? You will feel that the rope is a snake! And especially at night, you will always feel that the rope is moving slowly! Your eyes will create the perception that the rope is moving! So, the moment you feel the rope is moving, your whole spine starts moving. You will have an electric shock spreading in your spine. Your whole body will shiver! The being will shake!

Listen! When you perceive the rope as a snake, the way you respond will be different, and after a few minutes, when you see that the rope is not moving, suddenly you realize that it's not a snake, it is just a rope, the way you respond will be totally different. The moment you realize this, the whole fear will settle down. You will be free! If you perceive the fact, then there is no suffering. But just your wrong perception can literally give you a cardiac arrest! Even before the snake bites, you might be dead just by the perception that there is a snake!

I can give you the various levels of perception. Understand!

• G There is a rope but you don't cognize it that is one perception - stupid atheist!
• G There is a rope but you cognize it as a snake - Capitalist!
• G There is a rope, you cognize it as a snake and you take a stick to beat it and kill it - Communist!
• G There is a rope, you perceive it as a snake, and you plan to take it and put in on somebody whom you don't like - Terrorist!
• G There is a rope, you perceive it as a snake, get frightened, and then you see and realize it's a rope, not a snake, and your fear disappears - you can be called as jeevan mukta.
• G There is a rope, you perceive it as a snake and there is no fear inside you - you are just in the space of 'oneness'. You are a Nithyanandite!

The moment you come to the space where you neither see the rope, nor do your patterns cognize it as a snake, nor do you have the possibility of fear nor the possibility of any wrong cognition, you are an incarnation!

Basically, perception is processed fact. Understand, this is the exact definition: perception is processed fact. Facts can be processed in the fire of ignorance,

Every one of you lives with a philosophy whether you understand it or not!

or the cold of patterns - anything, anything, anything! Anything can process facts.

Now, I am giving you the best possibility of perception. Bring integrity in your thinking. Listen! Bring integrity in your thinking. Your eyes will not forget the reality even at that moment, and it will not cognize the rope as a snake. Many times, due to lack of integrity, your body and mind cognize their own facts, their own concepts.

The best philosophy on the planet Earth is Kapila's sankhya! Do you know why? Because he had no patterns! The processing of the information did not happen with any patterns. No patterns are involved in the processing of the information. A rope is seen as a rope. Not even an iota of the idea of snake is superimposed on it! Superimposing any idea on life takes away the joy of life.

Pure listening is pure perception. Usually, whenever you listen to the truths about perception, your mind boils. Your mind just resists. It does not want to imbibe it. If I talk about meditation techniques, you will be ready to sit and listen, because you know you will have to do meditation, and transformation will happen. Your mind knows that somehow it can postpone or push aside listening to the truths about perception. Tomorrow! Later on! The mind knows how to play the game, it knows how it can cheat and continue to be in ignorance. But when I talk about perception, your mind is afraid to listen.

How many of you cognize a subtle fear running inside your system even at the thought of knowing about perception? It is because knowledge of perception demands change NOW! You have to change now! You don't have time to play the game of 'tomorrow', 'later on', 'I will learn unclutching. Then I will unclutch, unclutch, unclutch. Then I will look

at that rope deeply! Then I will realize it is not a snake anymore!' The space of postponement, the space of self-denial, the space where we let the mamakara and ahankara be alive, exists when you give yourself the space for practice. That is why you are very comfortable with the philosophies which demand your practice.

Listen! All human beings need to listen to this fact. When you catch a snake and start off playing with it, your mind says, 'If the snake bites, if I die, what will happen? No! I will hold the snake's neck in such a way that if it bites me, I will tighten my hold, squeeze it and kill the snake also!' Okay! But, is it going to bring your life back?

Look into your life. At every step, you are planning with the possibility of revenge. And you think that if there is the possibility of revenge, you are free from the danger! Possibility of revenge does not free you from the danger! Only if you have a proper medicine for snake-bite, or you wear a protective costume, it can be real protection! Look in. How many of you cognize that you consider revenge mechanism as self-protection? It is not the truth! Revenge mechanism is not self-protection mechanism. I tell you, only when you understand that revenge mechanism is not a self-protection mechanism, you will understand non-violence the essence of the saint Mahavir's teaching.

Pure listening is pure perception!

Today is Mahavir Jayanti. And in this auspicious space and time, I bless you all to experience non-violence; the real, true, non-violence of Mahavir. Mahavir's non-violence is not based on law and order. It is based on the understanding that revenge mechanism is not selfprotection.

Listen, listen to the truth - revenge mechanism is not self-protection. Either you protect yourself how much ever you can, or you are exposed! You are exposed. Listen! That is the non-violence of Mahavir. Protect yourself as much as you can, and wherever you can't, be very clear, you are just exposed, vulnerable. This is the secret of non-violence. But you always think that revenge mechanism is protection.

The other day I met a person who is superficially trying to follow Jainism. I asked him, 'Are you not afraid to walk alone from place to place?' Immediately, he responded 'No, there is a law in this country. If anybody attacks me or kills me, he will be put in jail. He will be hanged.' Now that cannot be the reason for your perception of security! Understand, had he responded saying, 'No, I will protect myself as much as I can; otherwise I know I am exposed to that possibility. I am okay with it.' – this is non-violence. Then I would have been sure he is a follower of Mahavir.

As I said, superimposing any idea on life takes away the joy of life. The fear which has spread in your body when you see the 'snake' will not allow you to take the natural responses of 'fight or flight'. An integrated man will not perceive a rope as a snake. An authentic man will not allow the fear to spread in his body. A responsible man will not have the 'fight or flight' response. When you are in a space of enriching, you will not be beating the snake or running away.

The basic truth is - bring integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching to have the best perception! With the best perception, create your own understanding and knowledge bank about what is security, what is fear, what is good, what is bad, what is right, what is wrong, what is the goal, what is tathaata , 'isness'.

Listen: this is the best strategy I am teaching you for your life! I am not giving you any spiritual principles, moral science, life solution lessons. No! I am just giving you the best possible strategy for life! Best strategy for life! Best strategy for the possibility! When you understand security, understand it purely from the angle of security, not from the angle of revenge. Even if you take revenge, it is not going to bring your security back. Even if you kill all the fellows who killed others, all those who got killed are not going to come back to life. Maybe it will maintain the law and order. I accept that. But that cannot be the reason for your cognition of security.

The funniest thing is that all the basic necessary cognitions of your life are confused, messed up. If I ask you - what is disease? What is your cognition of disease? Your answer will be all about your plans to handle the disease. You do not have the cognition about the disease itself. You have the cognition only about the doctor or the medicine or what you will do after you get the disease. Look in.

Bring integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching to have the best perception! With this, create your own understanding about what is the goal, what is tathaata , 'isness'!

What is your cognition about your sickness? 'I will go to Swamiji and get healed,' or 'I will go to this doctor,' or 'I will go to that doctor', or 'I will do this,' or 'I will do that'. But that is not your cognition about the disease itself. Have the right cognition about the disease, then you will not allow the disease to happen inside your body, inside your system!

Have the right cognition about security, and you will have proper security. Wherever you can't make yourself secure, you will at least know that you have to find some other solution. Then you will understand that your body can never be secure. Your mind can never be secure. What can be made secure is only you, and it can be done only by you which is Soul and Consciousness. You have to be enlightened as a basic need!

There are three levels of perception:

• G No pattern, no perception this is the worst.
• G Pattern with perception this is okay.
• G Perception but with no pattern this is the best.

When the rope is not going to play any role in your walking in that forest, and when you don't even cognize a huge tree standing in front of you, why will you cognize the three-feet rope? The cognition coming from the correct perception keeps you completely powerful from that moment onwards.

Seeing the rope as a snake and getting frightened is shrishti-drishti – seeing what IS. Then realizing that the rope is a rope, not a snake, is drishti-shrishti – seeing what you want. The theory that none of these

possibilities exist - not being bothered about the rope, or not cognizing the rope in your inner space as a snake, or having fear for the snake – if you say that none of these possibilities exist, it is ajaata siddhanta. Your delusion is unborn. Your powerlessness is unborn. Your wrong perception is unborn. Your failure is unborn. When you know this, when you perceive this, you are new-born!

Dangerous perception is the only danger you have in your life, because most of the time, that is what you do!

A blind man was sitting in front of a huge fire with a burning stick in his hand. Somebody came and asked him, 'What is this? Such a huge fire! Don't you see? What are you going to do about it?'

'Yes, yes! That is why I took this burning stick and put it on my eyes. Now I am not seeing the fire!'

Can that be the solution?

You may laugh now, but all your solutions are usually of this type. And you even accept as your guru, the fool who tells 'Take the stick and put it on your eyes! You will not see the fire anymore, and the problem will be solved!' Burning your eyes is not going to give you liberation from the scenes you are seeing. It is like saying, 'Now I don't need to bother! Even if the snake is in front of me, I will

A perception with no patterns is the best perception!

not have fear!' Look in! Shrinking from life is nothing but putting the burning stick on your eyes!

It is so unfortunate! Just because your eyes are burnt, it does not mean that the fire will not impact you or the world will not impact you! Perception of the fire is still burning from inside you, as per your experience. The innermost perception has to change. You need to realize that it is not the outside scene, but the innermost perception you carry for the outside scene, which is impacting you and giving you the experience of your reality.

I tell you, if there is a fire burning and you sit at a distance and just go on gazing at the fire, you will feel the heat in your body! If you just turn your eyes away - maintain the same distance but just turn your eyes away - you will not see the burning, and you will not experience burning in your body! How? The seeing has not reduced the distance between you and the fire! That is perception and reality!

The great news for human beings is that Maya can be crossed! Perception can be transformed! You can become enlightened! O humanity! I am here to give you that great news! Perception can reach perfection! When you bring perfection into the perception, a moment of perception can literally bring enlightenment!

I will give you an example. Recently we visited the cremation grounds in Varanasi. When we were watching the dead bodies burning in front of us for hours, some of us were just sleeping, some were affected and were feeling nauseated, and some were not at all affected by the same scene of the body burning part by part in front of their eyes. What is the difference? It is just the processing of the information with patterns, or the patterns with the information! The possibility of the perception!

Look in. Drill all these great truths inside you with integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. With integrity and authenticity, drill, drill, drill! When you drill with integrity and authenticity, normal perception itself is nothing but perception of God! Because any perception will directly lead you to the space of the root of all actions, including perception!

The essence of today's satsang: bring integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching in your thinking, in your perception. You will see that the ultimate perception becomes your reality. It becomes your reality!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

Bring integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching in your thinking, in your perception. You will see that the ultimate perception becomes your reality!

Always be in a place where you will be pushed to live in authenticity. Choose friends who expose your inauthenticities to you, who constantly supply you with vitamin a authenticity! The vital vitamin for vitality is authenticity.

Today, the subject for the Nithya Satsang is perception, and the ability to go into complete perception, higher perception, and non-tolerance towards incomplete perceptions.

Listen! After the egg happens, if life still continues to happen inside the egg, only then it becomes chicken. Same way, after your body happens, if your life still continues to happen in your body, only then your perception expands. The moment your perception stops expanding, life stops happening in you. That is why I tell you - contemplating authenticity, living authenticity every day, is much more than vitamin supply for your body and mind!

Please listen: the supply of authenticity is much more important to your body and mind than vitamin supply, protein supply, glucose supply and energy supply! Knowing about your inauthenticities and getting rid of them is as important as knowing about your bad

cholesterol and getting rid of it.

Listen: always choose places and situations where your inauthenticities will be constantly exposed to you, and you will be pushed to live in authenticity. If you are in an ambience where people don't let you be inauthentic, where those around you force you to be authentic, understand that you are in heaven! You are in heaven! It is unfortunate that people choose the other way. You choose friends who never expose your inauthenticities to you, who never question you, who don't constantly supply you with Vitamin A - authenticity! The vital vitamin for vitality is Vitamin A – authenticity.

Add authenticity to your thinking in every step, every step, every step. Constantly expand, expand, and expand! Go on expanding! Don't settle down with the lower perception. What you know about human beings, what you know about the world, what you know about you – it is all imperfect perception. When you settle down with imperfect perception, it is the most horrible mistake of your life.

How to become the perfect perceiver is the next step. How to achieve that state of perfect perception is the next step. But please understand, the first decision, the major decision you need to make is, 'I will not settle down with imperfect perception!' Any conflict you have, any powerlessness you have in your life, is imperfect perception. Don't settle down with that. Allow life to happen in you.

Please listen! Inside an egg, if life is not happening, the chick won't come out. Inside your body, if authenticity is not happening, the completion, fulfillment, enlightenment, won't come out. Inside the seed, if life is not happening, the tree won't come out. Inside the seed, life has to happen, tree has to come out! Inside your body, authenticity has to happen,

enlightenment has to come out! Add authenticity to your thinking in every step.

When you have a certain perception about somebody, don't sleep with it. Don't decide that it is the ultimate. Decide you will be more authentic the next day, and you will try to understand more. Because you fought with your daughter-in-law or mother-in-law yesterday, because you fought with your husband one year ago, don't expect that it is going to be the same tomorrow also. Decide, 'Tomorrow I will expand my responsibility and my possibility, and bring new energy into life!'

When you are in conflict, suffering is naturally going to be there. It is so unfortunate that people constantly say, 'I am in conflict, I am in suffering, because of his inauthenticity, her inauthenticity, their inauthenticity!' Courage is the fragrance of authenticity. Cowardice is the smell of inauthenticity. Wherever you are in conflict, be very clear, you are in conflict, even though you point at others' inauthenticity.

If life is not continuing to happen in the seed, it is not a seed, it is dead! If authenticity is not continuously happening in you, you are not a possibility, you are dead! Constantly make authenticity happen in you, in your work, in your thinking, in your health! Constantly expand your thinking, constantly expand your perception!

Any conflict you have, any powerlessness you have in your life, is imperfect perception. Don't settle down with that. Allow life to happen in you!

Neither dvaita nor vishishtaadvaita nor advaita is wrong. All three are right at different levels. It is nothing but the ripening of authenticity; different levels of authenticity. If your authenticity has not evolved, even if you believe in advaita, it is inauthentic. Everything has to be based on your authenticity and experience of life.

I have seen that some people constantly experience conflict. Wherever they go, they will find some reason to be in conflict, and they will try to correct that situation! These kinds of fellows, wherever they go, will be constantly creating conflicts - in their work, in their family, in their marriage, in their relationships, in their team, everywhere because the lower perception goes on making you believe that others are responsible, and it is they who have to change.

I tell you, decide that you will become authentic. You have such a huge inner space, you can put everyone in that and process them and make them as you want! Your inner space is a huge processing unit. If you don't take responsibility, you will have only a small processing unit. You can't even process yourself and transform yourself. If you take responsibility, it will become a huge processing unit; everyone can be put in that and processed and come out as transformed beings.

If you take the responsibility and people are put in your processing unit and transformed and come out, they will all be embodiments of you, extensions of you. That is what a mystery school is all about. Mystery school is nothing but the master's inner space with his vast responsibility - whoever comes inside in whatever form is processed, transformed and released! Integrity, authenticity, responsibility, enriching – these are the huge possibility for transformation. Authenticity goes on expanding you.

If you are the head of a family, don't put the blame of any conflict or suffering on the members of the family. You take the responsibility. Then you will see, even if you put the blame on them, it will only be transforming them; boiling them only to transform them! If you are the head of a team, don't put the blame on the members of the team. The moment you put the blame on others, the responsibility on others, you renounce the power also. When you take the responsibility, you don't renounce the power. Don't settle down into the pattern of conflict and putting the blame on others. Take the responsibility to resolve your conflicts. Take the responsibility to go to the next step.

Every statement you make is very, very important! Understand, every word you utter to yourself and to others defines you to you and to others. How you define you to others can at least be changed after a few days. But how you define you to you is the most scary part, because you have to struggle so much to change that. Define yourself to you as a siddha, mahapurusha, incarnation, sarvajna, allknowing*.* When you define you, define yourself now itself as all-knowing, all-powerful! That is why I give spiritual names like that to devotees - Tattvananda, Tattvabodhananda, Tripurananda.

All the gurukul kids should know, the name I have given you is YOU! You should define yourself as that! If you are given the name of Tripurananda,

Understand, it is your lower perception that makes you believe that others are responsible, and it is they who have to change!

then you are the Lord of Tripura - all the three Universes! If you are given the name Tattvajananda, then you are the source from which all the spiritual principles are born! If you are given the name Tattvabodhananda, then you are the source where the joy of the tattvas resides! Define yourself now properly, because the definition you give to you is the most important thing! If your name is Satyamayananda, you should have vak-siddhi, the power to manifest your word as reality! You should be very clear, 'Whatever I utter will become reality! So I will be careful with my words! I will utter only those words which I will make into reality!'

Defining yourself to yourself should be done with life, with authenticity. If the seed defines itself to itself, 'I am a seed. I cannot do anything. Ah, my life is over!,' then it is dead! If the seed decides to be authentic, 'No, today I will at least just break my shell. Today I will sprout one small leaf. Come on! After all, now I am able to sprout one leaf. Now let me make my second leaf !' Then life is happening! Tree is happening! Our huge banyan tree's seed also would have had this dilemma when it was breaking! Because it decided to break and become a tree, today it is standing as a kalpavriksha, a wish-fulfilling tree!

I tell you, each one of you goes through that moment: egg or chicken? I am not talking about the question of whether the egg came first or the chicken came first. No, I am talking about whether you want to remain as an egg or become a chicken! Unfortunately, you cannot remain as an egg. There is no status quo in life.

Do not settle down with low-level perceptions. Live with the highest possibility! Go on expanding, expanding, expanding your possibilities. The day you decide that you are not going to settle down with your lower perceptions, your life starts expanding. You become a seeker. The

day you decide that you will settle down with your lower perceptions, you are dead. You are dead.

Go on making impossibilities into possibilities. What is life? Continuously making impossibilities into possibilities is life. When you accept that impossibility is impossibility in your life, you are dead! After that, where is life? Life is life as long as you are making all 'Impossible' into 'I-M-Possible', all 'Impossible' into 'I AM Possible'!

Listen!

• G Constantly practicing integrity brings you to the space of positivity.
• G Constantly practicing authenticity brings you to the space of possibility.
• G Constantly practicing responsibility brings you to the space of leadership.
• G Constantly bringing the space of enriching into yourself brings you to the space of enlightenment.

This is the essence of what I wanted to share with you all today.

Listen! Constantly expand your possibility.

Continuously making impossibilities into possibilities is life!

I tell you, your mind makes you believe that you can't expand. If your memory can work today to hold 200 pieces of information, you don't believe that tomorrow you can hold 300 pieces of information.

I tell you the truth: when you stop believing that expansion is possible, when you always refer to the past, or have an old reference for any future decision of life, you are dead! You are dead and gone! You are dead and gone.

• G I still believe my memory can expand.
• G I still believe my perception can expand.
• G I still believe my energy can expand.
• G I still believe my intuition can expand.
• G I still believe everything auspicious can expand in my life!

This is the essence of what I want to convey in today's satsang: don't settle down with small perceptions, lower-level perceptions. Go on being authentic, authentic, authentic, and expand the possibility of your perception. Expand the possibility of your perception. That is life!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Thank you!

The space you carry inside is not the effect of the happenings of your life, it is the order you are giving to the Cosmos. Anything you decide in your inner space becomes reality in the Cosmos, reality in Existence! Have the right inner space to create your life.

I welcome you all with my love and respects. I welcome all the devotees, disciples, samajis, satsangis sitting with us around the world.

Today, I will expand on the subject, 'The space we carry inside, and how it directly affects the reality we and the people around us perceive.'

In Sanskrit we have two beautiful words, 'drishti-shrishti' and 'shrishtidrishti' - 'seeing what exists' and 'creating what you want to see'. Please understand, the subject I am talking about is a very subtle, very important truth. I need your complete listening. I want you to be complete.

Understand, the space we carry inside directly affects the reality which we and the people around us experience.

Internalize these two words, because I am going to use these two words, again and again: drishti-shrishti and shrishti-drishti. drishti means seeing.

shrishti means creation. Shrishti-drishti means that you believe what is seen by you. You see what IS. drishti-shrishti means that you create the reality you want!

Sometimes you believe what IS. The creation IS and you are seeing it; which most of us cognize most of the time. Most of us always feel, 'It is there. I am seeing. So I am caught! I don't know what to do!' Feeling powerless! You put all the blame on what IS. 'It is there! What can I do?'

Please understand, when you cognize, 'It is there! I am seeing!,' you already lost the game! You are fighting a losing battle! It is like you trying to conquer your wife through argument! No! It can never happen! It can never happen. You may be a great lawyer. I have seen great lawyers. You can be a great lawyer in the court, convincing any judge with any argument, but you can't win the argument at home!

The moment you cognize that what 'IS' is perceived by you, the possibility for transformation is closed. The possibility for enlightenment is closed. But the good news is, it is not true!

Please understand, the moment you cognize that what 'IS' is seen by you, the bad news is that the possibility for enlightenment is closed, the possibility for transformation is closed. The good

Understand, the space we carry inside directly affects the reality which we and the people around us experience!

news is, it is not true! You are not seeing what IS. You are only seeing what you want. It is always drishti-shrishti. You create what you want. You don't see what IS. You create what you want.

But, it so unfortunate, human beings are in such an unfortunate space, they very strongly believe that only what 'IS' is perceived by them. Especially when you cross 35-40 years, when the possibility for new ways of thinking becomes difficult and you have already built your personality with the old way of thinking, you now start feeling that if you change those basic truths, you have to change your whole existence! You have to change your whole life, which is too much!

Please understand: all your sufferings and ignorance is because of the decisions you made due to some other vested interests. Why don't you want the transformation? Because transformation now literally means that the earth on which you are standing for the last 40-50 years is going to shake!

One of the biggest delusions we create around us is that we are a success. We cannot bear the truth that we are not a success. We have to constantly reaffirm to ourselves that we are a success, and so we go on planning, looking, altering and continuously convincing ourselves to believe that the ideas with which we built our life were right. 'See, my colleagues don't have all this;. I have all this. So I am successful.' One corner of your mind laughs at you, but the other corner says 'No, no, no, I am a success!' You don't know which side to support.

Part 16: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

You finally land up in utter confusion, thinking, 'Which part should I support? One part of me claims and consoles me that I am a success. The other part condemns me as a failure. Which part should I support?' If you are in utter confusion, be very clear, the seeking has started in you! If you have not yet faced the confusion, the possibility for transformation has not yet opened.

Utter confusion is the first thing any person has to face in his life for enlightenment: 'Am I a successful being or am I a failure?' As long as you are convinced that you see what exists, you will not have this confusion. And also, you don't want to enter into the confusion! You do not want to rock the boat. 'No, it is all going well! Why create problems unnecessarily?' You don't want to come to terms with reality. You do not want to take any argument rising in you to the logical conclusion!

How many of you postpone taking any logical arguments in you to their logical conclusion? Whenever an arguments arises, you postpone it, you push it aside. You don't want to take it to a logical conclusion. You suppress it. You push it under the carpet. How many of you do this in your life? It is life! Look in. Anything you push under the carpet without taking it to a logical conclusion becomes a mechanism which restrains your possibility.

Please understand, the pattern of not reaching the logical conclusion is what I call 'life imprisonment'! It is life imprisonment! Constantly pushing things under the carpet, under the carpet, under the carpet! You don't understand, a big volcano is now there under your carpet! You are sitting on a volcano! How will you be able to rest? How will you be in restful awareness? That is why you are not able to sit with you. I have seen! I have seen people who are not able to sit with themselves.

See, when I started this sannyas sampradaya (monastic tradition), with a large number of youngsters getting trained and initiated into sannyas, the first and biggest problem I had to face was to teach human beings to sit with themselves. Meditation is secondary. I used to wonder – why, what happened? Have we lost trust on the sannyas tradition? Have we concluded that sannyas is not required for enlightenment or for the spiritual tradition? Have we distanced ourselves from the sannyas tradition?

When I started studying the situation, I realized that we have forgotten to learn and teach the basic ability to sit with ourselves. Unfortunately, we forgot to teach human beings to come to terms with reality. Why does the mainstream society not feel the need of the sannyas tradition? Because we have not learnt to sit with ourselves! We use religion only to the extent of makeup. Makeup is not surgery. Religion is just for a little help and a little peace and fulfilling a few desires! NO. Religion has to start from the space of restful awareness – conflict-resolution, and the ability to take our logical thinking to the logical conclusion.

We have to start with restful awareness. We have to start with carrying the right space. We have to start taking our logical questions to their logical conclusions. This should become the mainstream Hinduism. See, all religions will have both components: the knowledge component or enlightenment science, and the prayer component for consolation. You don't have a job? Pray to God and you will have a job. You don't have health? Pray to God and he will give you health. That is one component. And cognitive shift, spiritual knowledge, enlightenment science - that is the other component.

All I am trying to tell you is that I am not here to judge that one is lower and the other is higher. No! I am not saying that. If you can't pray to God, where else will you go? You have to pray to Him only. But the teaching of religion has to start with the science of restful awareness, by helping human beings create the right space inside. The concept of prayer should come next. First, human beings should be taught to create the right space inside. Mainstream Hinduism should start with the teaching of creating a right space.

Please understand, the space you create inside is so powerful, it can straightaway affect the way you experience life, and others around you experience life. Let me define the term 'space'! How you feel things are going to be – that is what I call the 'space you create inside'. If you are very clear that your space is already in a low energy, and you have thoughts like 'Anyhow, whatever I do is not going to work out, it is not going to be successful!,' then you have already dictated it! You have already given the plan to the Cosmos - 'I want my life to be like this only, as a big failure. Please make it happen for me!' So Cosmos will stitch it and give it to you.

The space you carry inside is not the effect of the happenings of your life, it is the command you are giving to the Cosmos. You may put the blame somewhere else. You may say, 'No, no, no! I am in a low mood because of the continuous failures that have happened in my life. If you were in my shoes, you would understand why I am like this!'

You may give many reasons for the space you are in, but you need to understand the seriousness of the space you are in. Please understand, your space is the order you give to the Cosmos to prepare your future! Listen! Just like how you place an order in a restaurants after looking at the menu card, the inner space you carry is also an order you give to the Cosmos, 'I want this, this, this in my life!'

Whatever you carry in your inner space is a possibility. If you are carrying sadness, you are ordering the Cosmos to bring greater sadness into your life. If you are carrying joy, you are waiting for more joy to come in your life. If you are carrying fulfillment in you, if you are carrying completion in you, you are ordering the Cosmos to bring bigger completions in your life. If you are carrying an inability, 'Yes, I have the wrong inner space. I am depressed, but I don't know how to change it,' that is one more inner space; it means you are ordering the Cosmos to give you more powerlessness.

You are a human being! You can't afford to say, 'Yes, I have a problem, but I don't know how to transform!' No! You have to transform. You can't afford to say, 'Yes, yes, I am hungry, but I don't know how to get food!' Then you have to die! That is the only solution. You can't afford to give up on you! You can't afford to be powerless. You have to stand up. You have to find the method. You have to transform. That is the only way life is possible!

Please listen! The space you carry has to be changed. The good news about your inner space is that you can change it at this moment if you wish, because this space is not gross, it is subtle. Gross things take time to clean. Subtle things can be cleaned immediately. Please understand, if the earth is dirty, if the ground is dirty, it takes time to clean. But if the air is polluted, you can clean it easily just with a spray. Subtle things are easier to clean.

Your inner space is such a subtle thing, one right declaration is enough; you are free! One completion is enough, you are free! You are out of that low mood you were carrying! You are out of that wrong inner space you were carrying! You are out of that deep negative cognition you were carrying!

Just one thought of fear can make you unsettled. Just one thought of lust can make you excited. Just one thought of your enemy can aggravate anger in you. So, just one thought of completion can purify your inner space! If just one thought of lust can excite you, if just one thought of fear can agitate you, if just one thought of your enemy can bring anger in you, then just one thought of completion is enough to transform your space.

Somehow, we don't believe that last statement. 'No, everything else looks logical. I have experienced it. But the last statement - is it true?' Then we say, 'No, no, no! You are an enlightened being. Maybe it is possible for you; not for us.' See, whenever you feel you are cornered, you are forced to transform, you immediately push me aside. 'No, you are a great person! You are an enlightened being! You are an incarnation. It is possible for you; not for normal people like us.'

Sometimes people show devotion just to escape from my teaching! Please understand, if devotion is for the wrong reason, it cannot transform you. It has to be for the right reason. It has to be for the right reason. The first thing you need to know is that your inner space can be transformed. Inner space can be transformed!

I will guide you into a very simple process. Take a few moments and look in. See what kind of space you are in. Is it peaceful or sleepy or dull or agitated? What kind of a space are you in? Look in. Be sensitive. Be aware of that space for just two minutes. Close your eyes and try to be aware.

Take these few moments to bring your awareness to your inner space. Because, now I am experientially going to support you, help you, to transform your inner space.

Yes. Now please understand, can somebody else be responsible for what you feel about you? No! It is your boundary! Your inner space is your boundary. Nobody else can be responsible for it. It is only you who can be responsible for it. It is only you who can be responsible. Even if you say that somebody else is the reason, that person does not suffer. Who suffers? You! So when something is affecting you, whether you are the reason for it or not, you are only responsible for it, and for changing it if needed. It is not that the person who is the reason will always take the responsibility. Many times, when you are the reason for something, you don't take the responsibility. Now it is time; understand that whether you are the reason for it or not, you are responsible for whatever is inside your inner space.

Whether you are the reason or not, you are responsible. The moment you decide that you are responsible for the inner space you are carrying, you know that you have to change it. Your inner space is nothing but the words you repeat, again and again, within you. Am I right? Is there anything else? So, now decide consciously that you will repeat the right words within you. Consciously repeat the right words.

You will say, 'No, no, no! I tried this, but I failed!', How many times did you try? You must have repeated the negative words ten thousand times. So, try at least ten times now to repeat the right words. You may fail ten times. Nothing wrong! You fail because of the pattern built by you. Now try ten times. Bring awareness. Decide that you are responsible, and you have to change it, because it is affecting you. Your wrong inner space is directly affecting you. So, naturally, whether you are the reason or not, whether somebody else is the reason or not, you have to change it. You are responsible. It is you who is responsible. It is you who is the reason.

The inner space you carry has to be transformed, because you take decisions based on your inner space. Please understand, if you are in a peaceful, relaxed mood, even if there are big risks, dangers, difficulties, you will take the right decision with patience, and you will expand in your life. If you are in agitated mood, feeling suffocated, you won't take even small risks.

How many of you feel that just because of the wrong inner space, you missed your business deals, your expansion in life, your growth in life; you missed many possibilities in many dimensions? So, all of you know the importance of the right inner space.

Now I want you to understand, whether you believe it or not, whether you accept it or not, and no matter how many millions of reasons you give, there are some things which can't be changed. Whether you accept it or not, believe it or not, understand it or not, you are God! Your inner space is all-powerful! It carries the DNA of aham brahmasmi! Your inner space carries the DNA of aham brahmasmi.

How many ever arguments you may give, a country's constitution cannot be changed. In the same way, you may give a million reasons, many arguments, to prove that you are not God, and you are not divine, and you are not all-powerful. You think, 'I am not even able to get a cup of coffee when I want it. Then how can I be all-powerful? I don't even know what is happening in my spouse's mind. How can I be allknowing?' You have very silly reasons to deny the possibility of your inner space. Please understand, you never tried to explore your inner space. How can you deny it before even trying?

Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi gives a very beautiful example: 'People go on saying that God is not there. He is just walking behind you!

You never look back even once! You never look in even once! You just go on denying His existence. You never tried to work on your inner space with authenticity and integrity even once!

Understand: if I am expressing the ashta maha siddhis, extraordinary yogic powers, it is not to show that I am extraordinary; it is just to show that it is possible for you! It is possible for you! Nothing more is required than carrying the space, with the understanding - 'When THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM can do it, I can do it!' That's all!

To learn swimming, all you need is to see somebody swimming, and cognize, 'When he can do it, I can do it!' That's all! Then you will simply know which leg to move first, which leg to move next; which hand to move first, which hand to move next. Even if you read encyclopedias on all types of swimming, you won't be able to learn swimming! It is just a knack. It is just a knack.

Same way, the space of possibility is just a knack. You need to see somebody playing with it and doing it. And you need to know, 'When he can, I can!' When you see somebody swimming, the first step is to understand, 'Wow! When he can, I can!' That is the first step. Second step - 'Let me jump and do what he is doing!' But you will have all possible reasons not to jump! 'No, no, no! What will happen if I drown?'

Once, an enlightened master and his disciple were traveling through a forest. After a long time, the master decided to rest under a tree, and the disciple went to fetch drinking water from a nearby river. Suddenly he fell into the river. He started screaming, 'Master, save me! Save me! Save me!' The master came and just stood on the bank. He said, 'You can save yourself.' The disciple was shocked. 'No, no! Teach me all your philosophy, all your Vedanta, at some other time! Please save me first!'

The master just said, 'Save yourself.'

The disciple started shouting, 'I have to be alive to practice all your Vedanta! Teach me all that when I am on the ground, not when I am in the water! I am drowning! I am drowning!'

The Master coolly repeated, 'Just save yourself !'

The disciple started wailing, 'Oh, save me! Save me! Save me!'

Then the Master roared, 'Fool! Just stand up and see!'

In that fear, the disciple did not know what he was doing. He just stood up - and saw that the water was only up to waist-level!

I tell you - all your problems are like this! It is just your decision to stand up in your inner space! But the fears you carry look so real that you say, 'No, I cannot stand up! I cannot stand up! I will do whatever else you say. I will worship you! But don't tell me to stand up!' But you have to do exactly what you don't want to do! You should be made

to do that forcibly - because that is where your inauthenticity is!

What you resist will persist. You don't need to do anything else; only do whatever you are resisting. Please understand, only what you resist persists in your life! It is just a pattern! You need to look in; what is the pattern you resist strongly in your life? What do you think you CAN'T do, you CAN'T manage? If you look, that will be the exact thing which stops you, binds you and keeps you in life imprisonment!

I have seen this with one of my devotees who had stage-fear. He couldn't even stand on a raised platform! I started speaking to him about why he has this fear. Through root-pattern analysis, we discovered an incident that happened when he was very young, when he was just a two-year-old baby. One day, because he was throwing a tantrum, his mother put him on the dining table, threatening, 'Keep quiet and don't move, or you will fall down!' See, for a child, a dining table is too high! So from that moment, the fear of heights started in him. And he was still carrying it..!

If you just look inside, the reason for your powerless inner space will be some root thought-pattern. Break that! Reclaim your freedom! Declare your freedom! Raise your inner space to the peak of joy, fulfillment, excitement!

If you just look inside, the reason for your powerless inner space will be some root thoughtpattern. Break that! Reclaim your freedom!

In the Upanishads, it is told that when the seeker Shvetaketu was initiated by his guru, his guru said to him only nine times, 'Tat tvam asi! Tat tvam asi! Tat tvam asi!' (You are That!) Shvetaketu became enlightened just by hearing those words! Then how come you don't become enlightened even if you listen to 'Tat tvam asi!' nine thousand times? You have to be carrying the right inner space!

On a rock, a seed cannot sprout and become a tree. Only on the right, fertile ground, the seed can become a tree. Only in the right inner space, the teachings can become reality. The right inner space is one where all the root thought-patterns of suffering have been destroyed. When your inner space is fertile for experiencing the higher ideals and ideas, all the root thought-patterns are destroyed.

I tell you, start playing with your inner space, to gain courage, to gather courage. Start with the small things which impact your life every day. Decide to tell yourself, 'With the inner space of completion, I am declaring, I am the space for my spouse listening to me!' You will see, miracles will happen! He or she will simply listen to you! Tell yourself, 'I am the space for my boss granting me a vacation!' Go with that space and play. If you try ten times, at least eight times you will see miracles happening.

Actually, only when you play with that space and see miracles happening, you will understand the power of your inner space. Don't think, 'I will be a failure even if I go with this space!' Then, naturally, you will be a failure. That is the miracle! See, if you go thinking, 'I am going to be a failure even if I go with this space!', then the space of failure is the space you are actually carrying! Because you go with the space of failure, you attract failure.

Understand, the inner space you carry is such a powerful space! It is hiranyagarbha, the space where the planets get created, where whole worlds happen! Your inner space is so powerful; worlds can be created or destroyed by your inner space. You may be individual, but your inner space is not individual; it is well-connected with the whole universe. So, anything you decide in your inner space becomes reality in the cosmos, reality in life, reality in Existence.

So the essence of today's satsang is this: have the right inner space to create your life. That will always lead to enlightenment, inspiration and success in every level of your life, in every sphere of your life, in every dimension of your life.

I bless you all to experience this great principle of right inner space, and change the world through your word. Your word can change the world! Experience this extraordinary power in your life.

Let you all radiate integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching with eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM! Thank you!

The right inner space is one where all the root thought-patterns of suffering have been destroyed!

The largest untapped natural resource lying with humanity is kundalini energy. When you awaken your kundalini energy with the right knowledge, right context, right understanding , right technique and right process, it can give you anything you want!

Today, we will work on kundalini shakti, experientially understanding and experiencing it.

First, I will define kundalini shakti. Please listen! kundalini energy is your inner potential bio-energy, which is available in your being, in the form of potential. Only when you awaken it with the right method, knowledge and process, it becomes a reality in you, a realization in you.

Listen! The largest untapped natural resource lying with humanity is kundalini energy. When you awaken your kundalini energy with the right knowledge, the right context, the right understanding, the right technique and the right process, it can give you anything you want! kundalini brings the space of 'positivity' to you, the space of 'possibility' to you, the space of 'leadership' to you and the space of 'enlightenment' itself to you!

Kundalini is like a kalpataru (wish-fulfilling tree). It gives you anything you want, and the space of not wanting anything! All the techniques like kriyas, yoga, pranayama, meditation, process, rituals are done only to awaken your kundalini, either partially or fully. Vivekananda beautifully says, 'Even during your intense prayers, it is your kundalini which is awakened and answers your prayers and responds to your prayers'.

All the religious traditions, spiritual traditions and mystical traditions only work on awakening the kundalini energy. If you remove the methods and process of kundalini awakening from any religion, they will just become a socio-political set-up. It is the kundalini awakening process which brings religiousness to any religion! It is the kundalini awakening process that brings religiousness to religion and spirituality to spiritual traditions. Other than the kundalini awakening process, everything else is just a socio-political set-up, with socio-politico rules and regulations. Just as how the essence of a sweet is sugar, the essence of a religion is the kundalini awakening process!

Understand, the kundalini energy is your inner potential energy, the inner potential bio-energy and your physiological psychic energy. Psychological physic energy is sex. Physiological psychic energy is kundalini. Listen! Psychological physic energy is sex. Physiological psychic energy is kundalini.

Kundalini is like a kalpataru (wish-fulfilling tree). It gives you anything you want, and the space of not wanting anything!

It means that if it is established in the psychological space but flows towards the physical plane, it is lust. Even though it is established in the physical plane, if it is moving towards the psychological plane, it is kundalini.

Science is proving again and again that we use less than thirteen percent of our brain - one-three percent! Even the top scientists like Einstein, and people who are considered as the most intelligent beings who happened on planet Earth, even they have used only thirteen percent of their brain! Then most of us must be using much less than that!

Listen! The brain has two parts. One is the mechanical part, which takes care of the mechanical functions of the body, like movement of blood, intestine, heart, lungs - just the mechanical needs, the basic survival needs and managing the mechanical parts of the body. It is like this - whenever you have a bandh (curfew) in Bharat, we only allow the basic survival needs to function, like milk supply, food supply, medicine supply, etc. In the same way, you have been in bandh in your body, for practically your whole life! You only allow the basic survival mechanisms to function, like the lungs, heart, intestine, which are the minimum needs. These are what I call the 'mechanical parts of the brain'.

There is the other part, which are the non-mechanical parts of the brain. These are endowed with extraordinary powers. Please understand, powers like telepathy, teleporting and materialization are no longer just mystical or mythological powers. No! They are math and logical - 'mathological, they are no more mythological! There is enough of scientific research that has been done on them, and established that they are not magic! They are Math and Logic! The possibility for telepathy, teleporting, kundalini awakenings and extraordinary powers like materialization are all available in every one of us!

Our brains are hardwired to experience higher possibilities and higher consciousness. It is this part that I call as non-mechanical parts of your brain. Please listen! There are tons and tons of scientific research done on telepathy. I was recently reading an article on a study done, where two People are made to sit in two different rooms and asked to meditate. If a light is flashed in front of one person's eyes, the other person's brain also responds and reacts to the same light, as if the light is flashed in front of this other person's eyes (even though the light is not flashed in front of his eyes)! There are tons and tons of researches like this that have been done to prove the power of telepathy, teleporting and materialization, and to prove the possibility that human beings have!

Listen! Whether you accept it or not, understand it or not, your body carries at least seventy times more energy and power than what you use in your day-to-day life. Science has proved this through various methods and ways. Just one small alteration in your brain can make you live without food, for months! I am not giving you any fantasy theory. I am giving you the practical experience of hundreds of my devotees - my disciples who are living this through nirahara samyama.

The inner potential energy you have and the possibilities you have is what I call the 'nonmechanical' parts of your brain. Awakening

Our brains are hardwired to experience higher possibilities and higher consciousness. The possibility for extraordinary powers is all available to us through kundalini awakening!

your kundalini directly awakens these non-mechanical parts of your brain and gives you extraordinary powers like telepathy, teleporting, materialization and what not! It gives you the space of positivity, possibility, leadership and enlightenment!

The ashtamahasiddhis (like anima, laghima, mahima, eeshitvam, vashitva and praapti) are possible with this! Your brain is hardwired for all these higher possibilities. Just because the common man does not have access to this science, it does not mean that it does not exist! Just because the common man does not have access to the country's treasury, you can't say that country's treasury does not exist. In the same way, just because you do not have access to these extraordinary powers, do not think that these powers do not exist! All these great powers ARE possible. It is a simple inner science!

Listen! kundalini shakti can directly make you more productive, more aware, more conscious, more intuitive and ultimately, more rich! It will take away the low idea you carry about you! It will take away the lower self-image you carry about you. It will show you your possibilities. It will show you the power of your intuition. It will awaken your intuition. It will awaken your intelligence. You will forget about tiredness and boredom! You will do smart work, not just hard work but smart work. And with this smart work, you will naturally see that you are more active, alive and productive in your job, in your business and in your day-to-day life.

You see, if I speak on all the ways in which kundalini will be useful to you in your day-to-day life, it will look like this – 'If you win a lottery of one hundred crores (hundred million), then you can buy the best shaving blade. You can buy a good cot. You can buy a good flat. You can buy a good pair of chappals (slippers). You can buy a good

doormat!' How funny this statement sounds! But that is exactly how it is, if I speak on all the things you can do with kundalini energy. You can just do anything with it! You can do anything!

First, it will first bring the space of positivity and possibility in you. And it will make you a leader! People will know that you are the leader, anywhere you go! People will know that you are the owner; that you are responsible and you are the energy center!

It is because of the non-availability of the right technique and the right Gurus that people are in a way distanced from kundalini shakti. And once the weird ideas about kundalini started spreading, the fear about kundalini also started spreading!

Soon, very soon, I will officially start a mystery school. Of course, unofficially, I am already literally running a mystery school. The morning satsang every day and this whole organization are nothing but a mystery school. But soon, I will officially start the mystery school, where this science of kundalini awakening is taught to everyone, from a newborn child to the elderly, from having a great entry to a graceful exit! All levels people will be taught the kundalini shakti.

You just need the right understanding, the right method, the right process and the right Guru. Then, kundalini IS practical and the extraordinary IS possible!

kundalini shakti can directly make you more productive, aware, conscious, intuitive and rich! It will take away the low idea you carry about you and show you your possibilities!

When your kundalini is awakened, you can just program your biomemory as you want. When your kundalini is functioning, when your body is responding to the kundalini energy, just declare to yourself at those moments - 'I am the space of positivity and integrity, the space of authenticity and possibility, the space of responsibility and leadership and the space of enriching with enlightenment!' Your body and mind will simply radiate it, and the universe will respond to it!

When your kundalini is awakened, when your body is responding to the kundalini energy, you can heal others and yourself. You can enrich your mind and others' mind. You can enrich your body and others' body. You can even give energy darshan (initiation)!

You can catch the fire for your lamp only from a burning lamp. So, kundalini also can be transmitted only from a bio-memory in which the bio-energy is already awakened. The bio-memory can be awakened with concepts and ideas. But the bio-energy can be awakened only by living it, and enlightened consciousness. Only in a bio-energy in which enlightenment itself is happening, in an awakened bio-energy, only an awakened kundalini can transmit that into another body and awaken another person's kundalini!

kundalini can be awakened by thousands of methods. I usually use four methods.

• First, kundalini can be awakened by giving the right principles about life, mind and body. When you understand the right principles, your kundalini can be awakened.

• Second, kundalini can be awakened with the right pranayama and kriya.

• Third, kundalini can be awakened with the initiation, through transmission of energy, by the touch given on the third-eye - ajna chakra.

• Fourth, kundalini can be awakened, just by the mere will. Just by will, the transmission of energy can be done!

Through these four methods, kundalini is awakened.

• In the Nithya Dhyana Yoga, I use the first method - awakening your kundalini by giving the right knowledge.
• In the Nithya Kriya Yoga, I use the second method - awakening your kundalini by giving the right process.
• In Healer's initiation, I use the third method - awakening your kundalini by the touch on your third-eye.
• In the satsangs, I use the fourth process awakening anybody's kundalini wherever they sit, just by the mere will.
• In the Inner Awakening program, I use all the four methods to awaken your kundalini, so that the awakened kundalini energy stays eternally and permanently in your being,

When your kundalini is awakened, you can heal others and yourself. You can enrich your mind and others' mind!

forever! It becomes part of your bio-energy and bio-memory forever!

When an enlightened being awakens your kundalini, you will not have any negative side effects. You will only experience all the positive things happening in you.

Now, I will enter into the process of awakening the kundalini energy. During the next few days, I will also teach meditations to all the viewers. Today, I am going to demonstrate with people who have already experienced kundalini awakening. In a few days, I will teach the process to awaken your kundalini also, to all the viewers.

Meditation to awaken the kundalini*:*

Now, I request all the people who are sitting all over the world to just sit in upanishad. It means - be unclutched. Visualize that every thought happening in you is just the fish jumping in the ocean of consciousness.

Sit straight. Close your eyes. Cognize with integrity, authenticity and responsibility, on the space of unclutching. With integrity, authenticity and responsibility, be unclutched! Feel that every thought happening is just the fish jumping in the ocean of consciousness. Either sit in vajrasana or padmasana. Close your eyes and be in upanishad.

Let the power of kundalini be awakened! With integrity, authenticity and responsibility, I declare, let the power of the kundalini - awakened kundalini from this body - awaken the kundalini in all the bodies sitting with us all over the world! Namah Shivaya!

Relax! You can open your eyes. Om Shanthi! Shanthi! Shanthihi!

In the next few days' satsangs, I will expand more on kundalini, its awakening, methods and process to awaken it and its benefits. I will expand on the details.

I invite all the viewers to participate in our twenty-one day meditation program to experience kundalini awakening experientially in you, and for that energy to eternally reside in you.

Blessings to all of you! Let you all radiate with integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching with eternal bliss - 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'. Thank you

When an enlightened being awakens your kundalini, you will not have any negative side effects. You will only experience all the positive things happening in you!

Integrity will clear the path. Authenticity will awaken the kundalini energy. Responsibility will send the awakened energy which is in you into the world, so that world will listen to you. With enriching , the world just follows you!

Today, I will continue expanding on the unique relationship between the state of responsibility and your reality, and the kundalini energy's involvement in this whole.

Kundalini is the huge possibility residing in you, like a seed! A Seed! A small banyan tree seed is a huge tree in the form of possibility. In the same way, you are God in the form of possibility! You are the seed for God, in the form of possibility!

Just as how the banyan seed is a possibility for banyan tree; you are a possibility for God Himself !

Integrity means aligning your thinking with what you want. Integrity clears the path for kundalini to travel. Authenticity awakens it. Every time you raise yourself to the peak of your inner image, outer image and others' image, the kundalini is raised. That quantity which is

required is raised. For example, you feel tired and you want to sleep in the satsang today. But, if you decide and say, 'No! I am going to listen to the satsang, internalize and live,' the moment you make that decision, a part of your kundalini is awakened! For each decision that you make with authenticity, your kundalini is awakened! Each time you coil, shrink and lie down, your kundalini falls and reduces!

'Energy suicide' starts happening in you. Only then does any disease start. Inauthenticity is 'energy suicide'! Listen! Whenever you make a decision based on authenticity, your body and mind is immediately supplied with the kundalini energy required, to fulfill your authentic decision. When you take the responsibility, the kundalini energy is infused into the world. Then the world starts co-operating with you and listening to you. When you start enriching, the whole universe follows you!

When you start living in integrity, you continuously align your thinking. It means that the path for the kundalini energy to travel is getting cleaned and all the blockages are getting removed. If you bring integrity in you, your fantasies will disappear; your fears will disappear; your worries will disappear; the attention-need will disappear; the jealousy will disappear; the ego will disappear and the discontentment will disappear! Just integrity itself will open all the seven chakras for the kundalini energy to flow!

Listen!!

• Integrity will clear the path.

• Authenticity will awaken the kundalini energy.

• Responsibility will send the awakened energy which is in you into the world, so that the world will listen to you.

• With enriching, the world just follows you! It not only listens to you, it also follows you!

These four dharmas, the principles of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching are the best and most amazing ways to start awakening your kundalini energy. It is the most-safe method to start awakening your kundalini energy. If you awaken your kundalini energy without integrity, you may become powerful but you may not be intelligent. Without authenticity but just with integrity itself, you may be intelligent but you may not be powerful. But with integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching, life is such power!

When you are integrated and authentic, your kundalini is awakened very safely. With responsibility, it will be sent into the world to make what you want as reality. And with enriching, whatever you are just becomes a reality!

Whether you want anything in the outer world, you want to make your dreams into reality, or you want to realize that your reality itself is a dream - for all of these, your kundalini needs to be awakened. Whether you want to make your

Whether you want anything in the outer world, you want to make your dreams into reality, or you want to realize that your reality itself is a dream, your kundalini needs to be awakened!

dreams into reality, or realize what you see as reality itself is a dream, your kundalini needs to be awakened for both purposes.

Sometimes, people ask me, 'Swamiji, for some people who attend your sessions and program, the kundalini is awakened on the first day itself ! But for some people, their body does not respond to the kundalini even for years. Why is this?'

It is because of this – integrity, authenticity and responsibility! People who decide to immediately enrich themselves and others will have the kundalini awakened immediately.

Listen! When your kundalini is awakened, when your bio-memory starts responding to the kundalini energy, you become the source of the Universe. You can send any thought current into the Cosmos, when your body is levitating through kundalini energy. When your body is responding through kundalini energy, anything you say will become part of you and will be sent into the space.

Kundalini is a very powerful, mystical science, to make man into Divine! Till your kundalini is awakened, your spiritual journey has not even started! You can sit and read libraries and libraries worth of books, close your eyes and sit in caves for ages and ages, do any homa, ritual or pooja, but until your kundalini is awakened, your spiritual life has not even started! After your kundalini is awakened, even one wrong idea you entertain can be dangerous to you and to others! When your kundalini is awakened, your body and mind now have to be highly integrated. Or you can misuse and abuse that power! You can bring dangers to you. It is like lying in the shadow of kalpavriksha (wish-fulfilling tree, boon-giving tree). Lying under the kalpavriksha, whatever you think will become reality!

In our ashram, we have a kalpavriksha, a powerful banyan tree, which has grown on the samadhi-peeta (living energy) of two Enlightened Masters! This is the only banyan tree radiating spiritual energy and is a very powerful tree! It showers you with anything you ask it!

Many of my devotees are still afraid to go under our banyan tree. Because they feel, 'We should not think or anything wrong under the banyan tree. Anything you think under the banyan tree comes true! It is better to be under the banyan tree for just a few minutes, thinking of the right things, and come away!'

Your kundalini is also like the kalpavriksha, the kalpataru tree. When your kundalini is awakened, anything you ask is immediately granted! That is why I don't awaken the kundalini of kids. I wait until they become mature. Until they learn to live in integrity, I don't awaken their kundalini. I wait, because they should not misuse it or abuse it.

The only thing that human beings need to learn in their life, to achieve anything they want, is to learn to 'awaken their kundalini'.

When you drop responsibilities, when you drop authenticity, it is 'energy suicide', your kundalini shrinks and goes back to sleep! Many times, I awaken the kundalini and send people back to their

People who decide to immediately enrich themselves and others will have the kundalini awakened immediately!

life. But if they don't take up responsibility and enrich, it again goes back to sleep!

It is so sad - mainstream human beings neither understand the science of kundalini, nor work on it. They waste their life without knowing how to raise their consciousness.

Sometime, these fools think that the science of kundalini is related to religion. Listen! In Vedic tradition, religion is a way of life! If you move religion out of your life, if you keep religion out of your life, you are dead!

Listen!! Religion is not separable! It is inseparable and is an everymoment-part' of your thinking, your cognition. When you drop authenticity, it is 'energy suicide'!

Yesterday, some of my sannyasis informed me - 'Swamiji, when I start speaking, so many words are flowing so beautifully! Even I understand these tattvas, these principles, deeply!' I said - 'That is the power of enriching!' When you enrich others, do not think that only 'others' are listening. Even you are listening! You are also enriched!

Every time you bring yourself to integrity, some blockage which blocks your kundalini flow is removed. You move further, further and further!

Every time you make decisions based on authenticity - even if it is small decision - like, 'I will not have tea! It is really not necessary now, so I will not have it!' Even these small decisions awaken your kundalini. If you decide - 'I will not smoke cigarettes, which is not being authentic with my body. I will not drink alcohol because it is not authentic with my physical and mental health.' If you decide, even this one-small-

authentic-decision awakens your kundalini!

Why do people have so much of difficulty with spirituality? Because until your kundalini is awakened, you cannot understand anything you read! You cannot understand anything spiritual. But when you make authentic decisions, you raise yourself to the next level of peak possibility. Every authentic decision from your peak possibility raises your kundalini!

I tell you - until your kundalini is awakened, not only has your spiritual life not started, but even your life has not started!

When you start your spiritual life, the first thing you need to do is bring in integrity and authenticity. Bring responsibility for everything that is happening around you. Whether you know it or not, want it or not, you are responsible for whatever is happening around you! You are responsible for whatever is happening around you! When you start feeling responsible, the kundalini energy overflows through your body into your actions, life and life outside! When you are enriching, life outside you simply follows you!

When the kundalini is awakened with the right Guru, you get healed from any disease that you carry. Your mind is healed from any problem it carries. Outside life - the outer world life moves

When you enrich others, do not think that only 'others' are listening. You also are listening! And you are also enriched!

as you want! Whether it is in the line of wealth, relationships, success, excellence or leadership, anything you name, you have it!

That is why I insist so much on authenticity and taking more and more responsibility! You do not need a separate time to practice spirituality. All you need is the cognitive shift, to practice spirituality. The ideas based on which you make decisions - only this decides whether you are growing spiritually or not. It is not the number of hours that you sit with closed eyes, or the number of pranayamas or suryanamaskars you do, or the number of times you do japa. It is this cognitive shift in your ideas based on which you make decisions, that decides whether you are growing spiritually or not. God is not waiting for your bank balance report! It is not that for every japa you do, it gets put in the bank balance and God says, 'Wow! He has done five lakh japa! Now let me appear in front of him!' No! It is just like your greed for money! The number of times you chanted the mantra is just like your greed! I tell you, spirituality does not need a separate time for you to practice it. It just needs the cognitive transformation, the cognitive shift, for you to practice!

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

When your kundalini is awakened, the overflowing experience of life will be tasted by your bio-memory for the first time. For every human being , kundalini awakening is a basic need. Only then does your new life start!

Today, I will expand on how your kundalini is awakened in our Inner Awakening program. I will expand how it is established in you permanently, and how it brings health, wealth, good relationships and success in every aspect of your life, and bring you the ultimate, enlightenment itself !

If I equate your body to a mango I will equate the kundalini to the seed inside. A mango fruit does not achieve its ultimate, if you just eat the fruit and destroy the seed. The fruit realizes itself only when the seed is able to give more fruits. In the same way, your body has two components, the kundalini and your body. Just living with a little money, comfort and ending your life is like eating the mango fruit. But, that will not to lead to realization. The fruit itself realizes its purpose of existence only when the seeds start giving more fruits.

Listen! The mango does not realize itself when if just the fruit is consumed, just the pulp is consumed. Just by somebody eating the mango fruit, the mango does not realize its high potential and its highest possibility. The mango realizes its highest possibility only when its seeds start giving more fruits. Your body realizes its peak only when your kundalini is awakened and established in your system.

I tell you, if your kundalini is not awakened, you will carry continuous discontentment and lack of fulfillment. You will not even know the reason, but you will go on blaming everything, and carry discontentment.

It is so unfortunate that most of the human beings you envy suffer from this discontentment. Whether they big social leaders or big political leaders or a person with huge wealth or the rich and famous or a celebrity, whoever you envy, they all suffer with this great punishment of discontentment.

Listen, when your kundalini is awakened, the first thing you will experience is deep fulfillment and such contentment in every dimension of your life! You will say 'God, it is enough, it is overflowing!' The overflowing experience of life will be tasted by your bio-memory for the first time. Your muscle-memory very rarely tastes the overflowing experience of life. But unfortunately,

If your kundalini is not awakened, you carry continuous discontentment and lack of fulfillment. When your kundalini is awakened, the first thing you will experience is deep fulfillment!

it is immediately forgotten and so your bio-memory never experiences this. For every human being, kundalini awakening is a basic need. Until then, you will have deep un-fulfillment and discontentment, in some form or the other.

I tell you, somehow find the right master and awaken your kundalini, as only then does a new life starts. Only then does your new life start! Only then does even your life start, whether it is at the level of physical health, mental health, the clarity to do what you want to do or the clarity to experience what you want to experience. Many times, even if what you want is in front of you, you don't know what to do, you don't know how to enjoy it and instead get caught with foolish unconscious emotions!

Every individual should somehow experience kundalini awakening, and allow the kundalini experience to settle down in your muscle-memory and bio-memory. Many times, people ask me, 'Swamiji, why is your meditation program for twenty one days? If it is for just a few days, o lot of people can come; a lot of us can come.' I know that a lot of you will come. But what is the use, if I am not able to do what needs to be done, and you do not get what needs to be gained? Then what is the use even if you come? If I do a two day or three day program, that is more like giving you a glimpse of kundalini.

Listen! I will make sure that even your body responds to the kundalini awakening! I repeat my commitment once more, with integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. I give you the word. This is the greatest gift any human being can receive in their life. kundalini awakening can be done just by the initiation by the right master, but only if your body is prepared by the proper yoga and kriya, and mind is prepared by the proper dhamma (teachings). Then, cognitive

shift that happens by the awakened kundalini will become permanent in your muscle-memory and bio-memory. Only then will it have a permanent impact in your life. Otherwise I have seen. Some people have so much of discontentment in their life, I feel sympathy towards them. Oh God! Poor fellows!

Your body needs to be prepared with the proper yoga and kriya. Your mind needs to be completely rewired with the new way of thinking, with this four dharma or principles as the base, and the cognitive shift has to happen. I tell you, with a cognitive shift, you build a new being for yourself and you radiate so much of goodness. And ultimately, you achieve the most powerful truth.

The energy gushing in your body will give you a new excitement. I tell you, it is not just about creating the health you want or the wealth you want or relationships you want, even the darshan of the ishta devatas – the Gods that you pray to or meditate on, is simply possible when the kundalini is awakened.

I have seen thousands of people directly having the darshan of their devatas, experiencing the extraordinary restful awareness, the advaitha anubhoothi. Realization of non-duality - eternal restful awareness and oneness happens. Please listen! This happens when your kundalini is

kundalini awakening can be done just by the initiation by the right master. Your body should be prepared by proper yoga and kriya, and the mind prepared by the proper dhamma!

awakened. Whatever you think as auspicious, great, right, best - they simply become a reality .It unfolds inside and outside. You just know that you are living the exact life you always wanted.

And you know how to keep this awakened kundalini alive in your body, in your muscle-memory, in your bio-memory. kriyas and yoga prepares your body; these four tattvas prepare your mind; kundalini awakening causes the conscious shift, the cognitive shift in your being, which leads to ultimate completion and contentment.

Completion with yourself is contentment. Completion with everyone around you is peace. Completion with the whole cosmos is bliss. You will experience all the three when your kundalini is awakened.

Awakening the kundalini and making that energy stay in you eternally, is the first step for life. Listen, it is the first step for life! Somehow without the right knowledge, the kundalini word has been corrupted and given the wrong meanings. Some call it voodoo, jadoo, cult, giving it that kind of a look. I tell you, kundalini awakening is a scientific process. The results can be scientifically verifiable, scientifically validated, it can be validated.

When your kundalini is awakened, your level of authenticity goes up. The level of integrity goes up, the level of responsibility goes up. The level of enriching goes up. The way you think about you, the way you think about others, the way you project yourself to others, the way you fulfill what others expect from you – all of these go up to a different plane altogether. You become a new being. When you experience kundalini, the internal conflicts you carry disappear. The struggle you are going through internally, 'Should I do this or do that?', 'Should I think this way or that way?", 'Should I look like this or that?', 'Should

I feel like this or that?", 'Should I go for this or that?' - everything just disappears!

Life and the very perception and response to it becomes totally different when your kundalini is awakened. For the first time in the world, we have proved kundalini awakening is possible, with so many medical research, scientific research and medical recordings. The effects of it are scientifically verifiable, including the extraordinary powers happening through kundalini awakening - like teleportation and materialization, it is possible.

Patanjali says that the highest kundalini awakening experience is 'jagrat sushupthi', restful awareness, deep restfulness and peak awareness. We proved this through the QEEG research, and other medical and scientific researches. When your kundalini is awakened by initiation, when I was awakening people's kundalini by initiation, we studied their brains through QEEG. It shows very clearly that they are in the deepest restfulness and peak awareness.

The 'jagrat sushupthi' and 'nirvikalpa samadhi' that Patanjali talks about is medically recorded and scientifically proven by this kundalini awakening. Only then does samyama happen in you, because for any samyama to happen; prathyahara, dharana, dhyana, and samadhi has to happen. dharana, dhyana and samadhi put together is samyama.

Completion with yourself is contentment. Completion with everyone around you is peace. Completion with the whole cosmos is bliss!

For the first time, by the God's grace and the grace of the Guru parampara, we have proved the power of kundalini awakening through medical and scientific research, and medically recording the data and scientifically validated it!

When the kundalini is awakened, people start living the four tattvas powerfully. When they start living these four principles powerfully, kundalini energy is awakened.

Your body should be prepared with proper kriyas and yoga and your mind should be prepared with the proper tattvas and principles.

Then, when your kundalini is awakened with the proper initiation, the whole awakened energy stays inside your system eternally, as part of your muscle-memory and bio-memory. You become a new being, a 'jeevan mukta'! You know how to carry the space of 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM', the eternal bliss, in you!

Sit listen to the satsang with restful awareness every day. When you are sitting in my presence for this one hour, listening authentically for this one-hour itself will awaken your kundalini !

The essence of today's satsang is this. Somehow experience kundalini awakening. That is the first thing you need to do, in your life!

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Your life is nothing but seeing. If you can see something through the eyes, you can experience it with your physical body. If you can see something through your mind, you can understand it with your mental body. If you can see something with your consciousness, you can control it, as the Lord of it.

Let us understand about the third-eye.

Please listen! Your life is nothing but seeing. Seeing is your life. If you can see something through the eyes, you can experience it with your physical body. If you can see something through your mind, you can understand it with your mental body. If you can see something with your consciousness, you can control it, as the Lord of it.

Seeing is an important aspect of life. I can say that life starts with seeing. Even blind people continue to see in their inner space. Whether you are blind or have physical eyes, you continue to see through your inner eyes.

Listen! The third-eye is nothing but 'conscious seeing'! The thirdeye is nothing but conscious seeing. The third-eye-awakening awakens the non-mechanical parts of your brain and helps you to

experience extraordinary powers, like telepathy, materialization, teleportation, etc.

The concept of the third-eye is the unique contribution of Vedic tradition. If you see all the Hindu gods, you will see them with three eyes. It means that only if your third-eye is awakened, you can become a God, not otherwise! Hindus have worked so much on the third-eye. Even if you are born as a Hindu, the possibility for the opening of your third-eye is already there, because our ancestors have worked on the third-eye for ages. The possibility for opening the third-eye is programmed in our very DNA, because our ancestors have been keeping the bindi - processed turmeric on the third-eye, continuously working to awaken it, for ages!

The third-eye is an important power which is stored in every human being. It is a possibility in every human being. We need to awaken it. We need to make it as a reality.

All the extraordinary traditions, mystical traditions and spiritual traditions continuously work on awakening the third-eye. The third-eye awakens the moment you start giving attention to it. The third-eye is awakened, the moment you start giving attention to it!

Your life is nothing but seeing. If you can see something through the eyes, mind or consciousness, you can experience it. The third-eye is nothing but 'conscious seeing'!

It is one of the important energy centers in your body. In Sanskrit we have a proverb, 'If you die in Varanasi, you will achieve liberation!' 'VaraNasi,' means the space between your nose and eyebrows. The very word in Sanskrit means 'third-eye If you leave your awareness on the third-eye, if you leave the body while your awareness is on the thirdeye, you will become enlightened. Of course, Varanasi, the city on the banks of the sacred Ganga in Uttar Pradesh (Bharat) also has sanctity. It is a very powerful spiritual centre. But if your third-eye is awakened even while you are alive, you will have so much of benefits.

Please understand, the third-eye can be awakened in so many ways. One of them is right thinking. What is 'right thinking'? Aligning all your thinking based on the cognition of the tattvas (integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching) is 'right thinking'. Aligning all your thinking based on the cognition of the four principles is 'right thinking'.

Listen! Listen! The third-eye is not just an eye, it is the very source of your consciousness! If you align your thinking based on the four principles, all your energy will become centered on the third-eye. All your energy will become stable in your third-eye. The functioning of your third-eye will enter into the next frequency.

Please listen! The third-eye is not just your brow centre, it is also the browsing centre! It's like how you can upload or download anything through the Internet world through the Browsing Centre, in the same way through you can download and upload anything from the Cosmos through the third-eye. Any akashic record can be downloaded by you when you open your third-eye!

Please listen! All the akashic records are done by me because of the third-eye awakening! That is the process through which akashic records

are read out. The third-eye is like a door to the Cosmos. You can receive anything. In the same way, you can send any command to the Cosmos through the third-eye. Anything sent through the thirdeye to the Cosmos is immediately - immediately experienced!

Bring integrity in your thinking; your energy will immediately be aligned in your third-eye Bring authenticity in your feeling; the thirdeye energy will immediately be awakened. Bring responsibility into your conscience. Please listen, conscience will become consciousness the moment you bring responsibility to it. Conscience means struggling with do's and don'ts, guilt and desires. Consciousness means the pure flow of life. As long as you do not take the responsibility, you will be struggling with dos and don'ts. Understand, you will be struggling with dos and don'ts!

The moment you take responsibility for all aspects of your life in which you are struggling and feeling powerless, realize it is conscience that is struggling and take responsibility in all those fields. Suddenly, you will see that your conscience becomes consciousness. You don't struggle any more. Life becomes a smooth flow.

When you start enriching yourself and enriching others, your third-eye flows like a wild river. Listen. Whenever you enrich others, the third-eye energy

If you leave your awareness on the third-eye, if you leave the body while your awareness is on the third-eye, you will become enlightened!

flows like a wild river. Conscience is dos and don'ts, consciousness is flowing with life.

The third-eye is not just extraordinary power; it is an extraordinary way of life. Don't think that it is like a power, (that) you can possess it and use it for your ulterior motives. No! It is an extraordinary way of life, through which you inspire everyone for the ultimate motive. Ulterior motive is different and ultimate motive is different. When you keep something for yourself, for selfishness, it is for ulterior motive; when you share with the world, it is ultimate motive.

The third-eye is the bridge between the physical world and the psychic and cosmic space. All the extraordinary powers and psychic powers are achieved through the third-eye. All the extraordinary powers are lived when your third-eye is completely awakened.

Work on your third-eye, you will see extraordinary powers immediately. There is nothing much to talk about the third-eye other than giving you the direct technique to awaken it. Awaken it and see. You cannot talk about the power of seeing both the eyes to a man who is born blind. However much you talk, he won't understand. In the same way, I can't talk about the third-eye till your third-eye is opened!

I'll give you the method - technique to awaken the kundalini-shakti, the third-eye. Only then will you understand the power of the third-eye. The third-eye is a direct bridge to God!

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Part 17: The Science of Living Enlightenment - Revealing the four sacred principles that empower YOU!

Every single moment, the awareness you bring to you either awakens your kundalini or puts your kundalini to sleep. Whenever you allow your inauthenticity, you shrink the kundalini. Every time you become authentic, your kundalini gets awakened!

I will expand on how these four tattvas can be lived continuously, how the kundalini awakening in these four principles can be strengthened.

Please listen! Your kundalini shakti is not disconnected from your thoughts and actions. Just one thought can trigger your kundalini and awaken it, or make it shrink and coil back! Just one lust thought and your body is already ready! Understand, just one lust thought and your body is already ready!

Your thoughts, your actions, your brain and your words - all these are directly connected to the bio-energy. Your bio-energy is directly connected to it. So the moment I utter the word 'kundalini ,' don't think that it is there somewhere, somebody at some point through some method and some technique on some day may be awaken it. BUT, it may not be awakened now. Now - it has nothing to do with my dayto-day life.' NO!

You are seeing me, because of your kundalini energy. You perceive the breeze on your skin, through your skin, because of kundalini energy. You are listening to this sound because of kundalini energy. You are processing this sound because of kundalini energy!

Listen! So, when you alter the way you think, respond or speak now, your kundalini can be awakened!

Your kundalini energy can be altered. You can awaken your kundalini energy before the end of this satsang. You can experience kundalini awakening, before the end of this satsang!

Listen! Even if you sit and listen intensely, your kundalini can be awakened now! Even now, if you sit and listen sincerely and intensely, your kundalini can be awakened now! Every thought you create, maintain and cognize has a direct effect on your bio-energy. If you cognize and encourage a natural lustful thought, it will have its own effect immediately on the body and the mind. If you cognize and react to a spiritual thought, it will immediately have its own effect on the body and the mind. If you cognize and react to the thought of integrity and authenticity, your bio-energy and your kundalini energy will have an immediate effect on it. It will have an impact on it. Please listen!!

Your kundalini shakti is not disconnected from your thoughts and actions. Just one thought can trigger your kundalini and awaken it, or make it shrink and coil back!

For example, the constant tiredness and fatigue you carry! Please understand; when you start practicing authenticity, the first wall you face will be tiredness and laziness. You can either make this wall a stopping-stone or a stepping-stone. Tiredness, laziness and boredom these will the first few enemies for your authenticity. When you try to expand your experience about you and others' experience about you, these three - tiredness, boredom and fatigue will be the first things to stop you!

Listen! I will give you one example. In the office, you can leave your office by 5 o'clock in the evening, if you are not authentic. But if you want to practice authenticity, you may have to do a little more work to make everything authentic. It may take one more hour to complete your work. When you decide to be authentic, what is the first thing that is going to stop you? Boredom! You will think, 'I can't sit in office after 5 o'clock! It is too much! I am too tired! I am bored of these same sick fellows! I am bored, tired! I feel lazy!'

Listen! If you decide even once - 'No! I am going to be authentic! I will break this laziness - tiredness - boredom pattern,' then your kundalini opens up. For even one decision that you make in the line of authenticity, your kundalini opens up, your kundalini is awakened!

The moment I utter the word 'kundalini , all of you think, 'We have to do something very secretly, sitting inside some dark cave, and use some mantra or meditation, some practice and you have to go to a remote place in the Himalayas to some Guru, and you learn some mantra which he will whisper in your ears, which you may understand only half of it and may not understand the other half, and you may have to collect different skulls and herbs, and sit on that and start chanting during amavasya (new moon day) midnight and only then will your kundalini be awakened!!

No! No! Your kundalini can be awakened through your office, through your office work!

For every single decision that you make based on authenticity, your kundalini IS awakened! For every single decision you take based on authenticity, to break your laziness, tiredness and boredom, your kundalini is awakened! See! The moment you decide to break the pattern and make the decision to do so, see in your muscle-memory and bio-memory, so much of energy will be flooded into it! You will feel a certain joy. You will feel, 'Yes, I am going to do it!'

That joy is 'ananda' of sat-chit-ananda! That energy is 'chit' of sat-chit-ananda! That courage is 'sat' of sat-chit-ananda! Understand, sat-chit-ananda is not something you will experience somewhere, when you are almost about to die, or after death! No! sat-chit-ananda can be experienced in your everyday decisions! To make sat-chit-ananda as 'nithyaananda' – eternal bliss, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM has happened!!

Listen! This is the basic truth that you need to understand. Unless you start awakening your kundalini NOW, everyday, in your day-to-day life, the possibility does not exist! The possibility does not exist! Either it is NOW or NEVER! Because when you start believing that it will happen after some time, and after some time, and after some time, that belief itself becomes like lacquer coating

Unless you start awakening your kundalini NOW, everyday, in your day-to-day life, the possibility does not exist! Either it is Now or Never!

on you. You will never be able to touch the 'present' time, experience the moment 'now' or experience the zone 'now'!

Please listen! For a person who is thinking about the future, his eyes will not be seeing the present, even if his eyes are open! There will not be a connection between him and his eyes. How many of you cognize what I am saying? In the same way, in exactly the same way, if you start believing that kundalini awakening can happen only after some time, that belief itself will become an obstruction between you and the kundalini awakening! That is one of the worst dangers! You need to break that negative belief, with integrity, with the right commitments.

If you have committed with you, again and again - 'kundalini will not awaken for me! It may happen only after twenty or thirty years of practice! It is not for me! Maybe it is for all sannyasis, seekers and evolved souls, but not for me! It will take years to do this - this - this - this…' If you have all these beliefs, that itself becomes a negative commitment that you have given yourself. And because of this very negative commitment, it really does not happen in you!

When I was young, I used to have this strong feeling that these miracles and powers will come to me only if I meditate, without moving from a place, for twelve long years! No, I had this strong belief ! I believed this, 'I have to sit for twelve years without moving! And my hair has to grow and enter the ground like a banyan tree root! Even then, I can't get up even if when I want to get up, because my hair has entered the ground like a root! Only then will I have siddhis (miracle powers)!'

This commitment had become a negative commitment to me! I delayed achieving the ashtamahasiddhis. It was already there, right from my birth. But I delayed expressing the ashtamahasiddhis because of my own

negative commitments.

You also see this in your life. You may be giving a lot of negative commitments to you. To be a leader, a siddha, a mahapurusha, a jnani, you may be giving a lot of negative commitments to you! You might have given a lot of negative commitments to you. 'How can I have vak-siddhi? Swamiji can have it, but how can I have it? I will have it, but may be after twenty years, or when I am old, or maybe in the next janma (lifetime)!'

Even these thoughts become negative commitments to you! How many of you are getting it? How many of you feel, 'Oh, God! I have so many negative commitments given to me!' Raise your hand!

(People raise their hands.)

Sit and complete with all of that. You have to restore your integrity and complete with all these negative commitments. Only then will kundalini awakening start happening now. And it is possible, NOW! You have to awaken, NOW! You CAN awaken NOW!

Every action of yours can awaken your kundalini. Every action of yours can become a part of kundalini. Please listen! Understand completely! Even now, your decision to sit straight and listen with authenticity can awaken your kundalini ! Or

Every action of yours can awaken your kundalini. Even now, your decision to sit straight and listen with authenticity can awaken your kundalini !

your decision to just fall asleep can shrink your kundalini!

Listen! Listen! Every time you bring an authentic decision, your kundalini IS awakened. Every time your kundalini is awakened, you are raising yourself to the next level of authenticity. You can see this in your everyday life. You can see this every day in your office, in your relationships. If your spouse is shouting at you, if your wife or husband is screaming, shouting at you, screaming at you, you decide - 'I will raise my authenticity level! Now I will not shout back or react! I will respond with integrity and responsibility!' Even this one decision awakens your kundalini! It awakens your kundalini!

Every single moment, the awareness you bring to you either awakens your kundalini or puts your kundalini to sleep. When you wake up early in the morning, the awareness you have either awakens your kundalini or puts it to sleep! When you listen, the awareness you bring to your ears can awaken your kundalini or put your kundalini to sleep. When you read, the awareness you bring to your reading - your eyes - it can either awaken your kundalini or put it to sleep. When you think, the integrity you bring to your thinking can awaken your kundalini or put your kundalini to sleep!

It is unfortunate that sometimes, you give up on you. You say, 'No! I cannot raise myself to the next level!' When you give up on you, you are dead! Dead! Giving up on you is the worst thing that can happen to you, especially due to the laziness pattern! When you decide to give up on you, you are 'patita', the fallen one, the dead one. If you live these principles, even if you leave the body, you continue to radiate and inspire millions. You continue to exist! If not, even while you are alive, you are dead!

Listen! Whether you practice authenticity or integrity, the moment you start practicing, the moment you start practicing itself your kundalini is awakened! Your kundalini is awakened! Listen! The moment you start practicing, your kundalini is awakened! It is so unfortunate, it is so unfortunate that you have the wrong beliefs about kundalini awakening. You should complete with all of that. Start awakening your kundalini NOW!

Whenever you allow your inauthenticity, you shrink the kundalini. Every time you become authentic, your kundalini gets awakened. Every time you become authentic, your kundalini gets awakened!

Thousands of people come and ask me, 'Swamiji, I was suffering for years with this disease, that pain. But the moment you put your hand on my head, it disappeared! How is that so? How can it be?' Just a few days ago, one of my ashramite was suffering with whole body pain. All I did was just send this kerchief (to bless). In ten minutes, he became alright! People ask me, 'How, how it is possible?'

Listen! When you practice integrity and authenticity, your kundalini energy is so alive and awakened, that it radiates and fills anything you touch!

Every single moment, the awareness you bring to you either awakens your kundalini or puts your kundalini to sleep!

You should know that your life is your life. You are the owner, you are responsible! You are the experience! You are everything! You are the organizer, you are the conductor, you are the owner; you are everything for your life! Take the responsibility for your life and bring authenticity to your life. That is the essence of my satsang today!

I bless you all, to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with enlightenment! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – 'THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM'! Thank you!

Life happens to you with others. If you don't enrich others, it is stealing and life does not happen to you. I tell you, decide to enrich everyone you see with these tattvas; in just a few months you will see that you are surrounded by gods and you are living in heaven. Go on enriching people with these tattvas.

I welcome all of you with my love and blessings. Let us enter into today's satsang. I was expanding on the four tattvas of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching others. Today, I'll move to the tattva of enriching.

Enriching is you taking responsibility with integrity and authenticity, that you are continuously committed to enriching, which is expanding yourself and life, in and around you.

I am defining enriching - listen! Enriching is you taking responsibility with integrity and authenticity, that you are committed to continuously enriching, which is expanding yourself and life, in and around you. Listen! Enriching means constantly enriching you and others! Listen! Enriching is infusing all these three tattvas continuously in your life and others' lives.

Even in the vedas, the first three vedas are only the tattvas. The fourth veda is about making those three tattvas into life. It is the same way with these four tattvas also; the first three are the tattvas itself and the fourth one is about making the other three tattvas as life.

Listen! Not just listening, but real listening. Not just listening. I don't even want to use the words, 'just listen'. Not just hearing but listening!

Enriching is you taking responsibility with integrity and authenticity, that you are committed to continuously enriching, which is expanding yourself and life, in and around you. You always ask, 'Why should we enrich others?' You conveniently forget that life happens to you with others. The ego forgets, the ahankara forgets, that all its joy comes only when it stretches itself to anyakara, not when it fights with ahankara.

The ahankara thinks that by fighting with ahankara it can extract joy. No! Only by stretching to others' anyakara can it experience joy. It is very unfortunate; the ahankara thinks that just by fighting with ahankara, it can experience fulfillment. I tell you, that is the way ahankara survives! In these three mamakara, ahankara, anyakara, the leader, the gangleader is ahankara. The other two fellows are both chota, small, frightened fellows. By the strength of the leader, these fellows also act like rowdies,

Enriching means constantly enriching you and others! Enriching is infusing all these three tattvas continuously in your life, and others' lives!

but they themselves do not know anything. The ahankara is the most cunning strategy planner. Unfortunately, he is caught in the net that he himself created!

We very conveniently forget an important fact, and take life happening for us with others for granted. We think, 'My brother has to behave like a brother, father has to behave like a father, friend has to behave like a friend, son has to behave like a son, student has to behave like a student, teacher has to behave like a teacher,' without taking the responsibility that we ourselves should also fulfill our role!

Why should the teacher behave as a teacher, if the student is not taking the responsibility of enriching the teacher? Listen! When you don't enrich the teacher as a student, even what you receive from the teacher will not be useful for you! It will not be useful for you! Anything you receive without enriching, is stolen!

The Bhagavad Gita beautifully says – 'If you don't do yagna and give back to the divine energy, you are a thief !' Listen! Bhagavan Krishna does not mean upi just pouring some offerings into a fire; he also means doing the proper action. For example, if you are cutting a tree, you have to plant at least five trees. If you are taking water from the river, you should make sure that the recycled water is purified and added to the river. Constantly enriching the source and keeping it alive for the next generation is yagna. Do not touch anything which you can't replace, like sources which can be exhausted but not replenished. Do not use nonrenewable energy sources. Use only renewable energy sources. That is part of enriching, yagna.

Bhagavad Gita is very clear. Krishna is very clear. Listen! If you are not enriching, but only taking and enjoying, you are a thief. Asteya (non-

stealing), one of the important vows of sannyas, can be maintained only by enriching. Only when you continuously enrich others will non-stealing be maintained. Listen. Enriching is where life happens to you. I can say that enriching means infusing all the three tattvas into satyas.

I have a quotation here from Bhagavad Gita, third chapter, twelfth verse:

Istan bhogo hi, istan bhogan hi vo deva dasyante yajnabhavitahah I

tair dattan apradayai ëbhyo yo bhunkte stena eva sahah. II

Translation: Satisfied with selfless service, the celestial beings certainly award you the desired necessities of life. He who enjoys things without offering them to the celestial beings is certainly a thief !

Listen! Life happens to us with others. I tell you, how many of you listen with integrity and authenticity? I ask all my sannyasis, 'How many of you think that even if you are alone in the forest, you will be able to maintain the standard of your sannyas life without the help of other sannyasis or the sangha of sadhus?' No! I tell you, try, try and try. I have seen hundreds of sadhus. As the spiritual head of the one of the oldest sannyas sampradaya

Listen! Life happens to us with others!

and member of the apex body of Hinduism, I tell you, for a common seeker, it is impossible!

I have seen these young seekers guided by the wrong idea that they can do it on their own. They go and sit in some hut, in some corner, forest or hill. They come down to the nearby village just for food. And in two years, they end up marrying some old widow! Arrey, when you don't see anybody, you will just fall for anybody you see! You will fall for anybody you see!

Whether it is sannyas or samsar, the joys of spirituality or the joys of the world, the joys of authenticity or the joys of inauthenticity, everything happens with company, with sangha! Understand, whether it is satsanga or dussanga, you need a sangha. Life happens to you in sangha. If life can happen to you without sangha, why will you be here? It cannot happen, it cannot. Being one of the spiritual heads of the naga-sampradaaya, I tell you, even to become a naga-sadhu, initially, until you are established, a sangha is required.

Life happens to you with others. Whether it's basic food or the ultimate luxury, everything happens to you with others. If you don't enrich others, it is stealing and life does not happen to you. I tell you, decide to enrich everyone you see with these tattvas; in just a few months you will see that you are surrounded by gods and you are living in heaven. Go on enriching people with these tattvas.

Even if you are in the remote forest, only with the river Ganga and the hills, your life happens. Even if you are a naga-sadhu in the forest, life happens to you with Ganga and the hills, the rivers and forest. Listen! With whoever or whatever life happens to you, you start enriching it. You start protecting it. That is why Hindus are so, so devoted to Ganga,

Yamuna and Himalayas, because life happens to them with that. That is why they are so sincere in keeping them alive and enriching them.
