INTRODUCTION
Constantly, we are asked to be good, to be pure, and to be innocent the idea of innocence is forced upon us, constantly we are taught society, by moralists, that something is right, something is wrong constantly we are taught the idea of good & bad, something innocent & something is corrupted, we are forced to practice something that is good or what society thinks is good.

Life is totally different, what society
believes is different from what is
Innocence means purity of the
inner space not being affected
thoughts or engraved memories
then if you are not expressing
emotions like anger greed & lust, if
they are present in your inner
space you are not as yet a total &
innocent person. On the other
hand if you express your anger lust
& greed but nothing touches your
inner space & you live like an
innocent child then be very clear,
you are pure being. Innocence is
directly related to the inner space it
way related to the outer world.
Unless you are without logic or
tired logic you cannot be ready for
transformation. Logic cannot help
understand even your own life.
Logic does not allow you to be
simple innocent .only when there
is no logic there can be innocence.

Innocence is the space for
transformation to happen.
There is so much freshness
behind innocence. Life
becomes an unfolding mystery
every moment with it. That is
the truth. Life is an ever
unfolding mystery. It is the
mind that typecasts it. The
mind always wants life on its
own specific terms. Innocence
embraces life with life's own
terms. With the mind, life does
not find a gate to enter with its
mysteries. With innocence, life
is welcomed to share its
mysteries. Innocence trusts.

Innocence does not worry about
being exploited. There are three
ways to ask a question. You can
ask out of innocence, or you can
ask out of knowledge to show that
you too know, and third, you can
ask to confirm that what you
know is correct. When you ask
out of innocence, you are
completely ready to receive the
answer. When you ask out of
knowledge, you can completely
miss the answer. When you ask
for confirmation, you simply resist
the answer.

ALWAYS BE OPENMINDED
© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
INTRODUCTION
Openness is emptiness. Let not knowledge fill you. Knowledge is but a mere tool, not your substance. Reject all knowledge as not this, reject means don't settle for any intermediate knowledge except the ultimate truth. We may know many things, but the knowing should not dull us in any way. We should remain empty in spirit always. If you just look at life without any opinions, without any words or description, without any fixed ideas, then you can receive everything because you hold nothing, because you are empty. Present is an unfolding miracle and mystery of Existence. We try to grasp it, with the net of knowledge.

That is the motivation for
knowledge. But it can never
happen! The unknown can never
be trapped with the known. The
unknown can be known only by
surrendering to it. That surrender
is what is called intelligence!
Intelligence recognizes the mystery
of the present moment and
surrenders to it joyfully. That joy is
the joy of innocence. Knowledge
on the other hand denies the
mystery of the present moment. It
tries to ascertain it every minute
and the present can never be
ascertained. So you continuously
remain with what is called 'fear of
the unknown'. Through knowledge,
you somehow try to escape from
the 'not knowing' of the moment.
To the ego, not- knowing means
being nothing.

© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
It cannot handle being nothing.
But innocence is being nothing
and enjoying the present! The
present is an unopened gift. But
knowledge robs it of its suspense.
Belief is nothing but an
individual and independent
interpretation of something.
There is no need to instill any
belief into a child.

A child can remain free to have its
own interpretation. The
unconscious response becomes
your 'instinct'. The very experience
of anything around you happens
only through instinct, not as it is.
And because of this, you cannot
know anything as it is. You can
know it only through your
knowledge. That is why we say,
knowledge is a hindrance to
knowing. Once knowledge
solidifies in the being there is no
space left for experiencing. There
is scope only for replay of
knowledge. Everything becomes
reflection of some past knowledge
or some past conclusion. The
future becomes a continuation of
the past patterns and experiences.
Existence is not a continuation of
anything.

It is fresh every minute. So it is not possible to know anything. The mind is constantly looking for activity you go behind belief. We base our whole life on beliefs. Because of this we are immersed in activity, but not action. Activity needs constant fuelling through beliefs. Activity cannot afford to stop. It if stops, the mind fall into depression. Action happens as and when required and stops. Activity happens out of belief. Action happens out of understanding. Activity causes fatigue while action creates energy and inspiration.
© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
What you need is action, not
activity. Just understand that
belief is nothing but your own
understanding of something and
not the truth. In any given
situation, four different people
can conclude differently with
four different beliefs. There is no
absolute reality in belief. It is
merely an individual perception.
But innocence keeps the
perception open. That is the
beauty of it. It doesn't conclude
and close the doors on anything.
There are innumerable
interpretations to anything. Not
holding onto any one
interpretation is the essence of
innocence. Then the spirit is
kept alive.

SILENCE IS THE
SPACE OF
UNLEARNING &
LEARNING.
© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
INTRODUCTION
In silence there is innocence. In words there is intellect. Intellect can never receive the truth, only innocence can just be with innocence that is enough. Silence bridges the gap that words create. Silence is the space of transformation into fresh learning. In silence you are open and in those moments you are innocent. The inner silence is the treasure zone. In silence there is no geed or fear. Innocence is a delicate fragrance while knowledge is a strong filter. That is the difference. The fragrance of innocence draws the whole world to you, prevents many things from coming to you. The filter of knowledge prevents many things from coming to you.
THE FILTER OF
KNOWLEDGE
We are in a great hurry all the time,
because there is too much knowledge
to gather When you are with
innocence you simply enjoy the
moment.
Innocence grasps the moment while knowledge misses it. Knowledge knows only purpose while innocence knows the beauty of purposelessness. Children lose their innocence to the conditioning that they receive in the name of “how to be clever”. Knowledge is a tool. It doesn't directly lead to intelligence. It is just a tool. As long as we use it as a powerful tool where needed, it is good. On the other hand, innocence leads directly to pure intelligence. Innocence grasps dimensions that cleverness misses.
© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
Innocence may miss the facts but it
catches the truths, when cleverness
combines with innocence, it
becomes a rare combination of
intelligence. Knowledge that is not
yet experience is not your own. It
is borrowed. Knowing is different
from knowledge. Knowing is
innocence. It is an understanding
that has become your own
experience. Work so that
everything becomes a deep
experience in you. You will then be
a simple person. Simplicity is
weightless. It will never weigh you
down and hinder further learning.
It is just aid in the flowering of
innocence, that's all. What
innocence grasps one may not ever
be able to express, because it is an
understanding beyond words.

VOLUME 2

DEEPER TRUTHS ON INNOCENCE

© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
INTRODUCTION
When you are innocent, you are vulnerable to everything that existence wants to teach you. If you are closed, you create a wall around you. Vulnerability is breaking the wall and inviting the cool breeze to touch your very being every time it blows.
Vulnerability is not weakness. The wall when broken will not cause you danger. The entire cosmos comes to you when you are vulnerable. Your reality is your vulnerability and you are so afraid of opening it to the cosmos.

When you are vulnerable, you
experience everything at the being
level. Life happens with
vulnerability. With the head you
cannot be vulnerable. With
vulnerability you move towards the
truth in a different path, in a joyful
path because every moment you
are receiving directly from
existence. Existence is able to give
you because you are vulnerable and
ready to receive it. When you
become vulnerable, you are saying
'yes' to existence.
When you say yes to existence
your energy starts moving in a
new direction. When you started
saying yes, you start expressing
love, which is the language of
the heart. When you are
vulnerable you have great trust
on the other. When you are
vulnerable you are open in your
entire response system.

TRUST IS
ABSOLUTE
AND
INNOCENT
© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
INTRODUCTION
Immense trust leads to surrender. Surrender is simplicity of the heart. When we awaken to the powerful presence of the truth, surrender happens. The trust is absolute and innocent. The trust comes with no reason. It is only innocence that is capable of taking the leap into trust and surrender. Knowledge looks for reason in everything. Surrender and reason are mutually exclusive, surrender is possible only out of innocence, because out of innocence arises trust.
With trust arises acceptance as well.
Acceptance means welcoming life
and all its forms as a wonderful gift
from existence. Each person or
situation is a fresh happening.
Accepting it at a deep level is
surrender.
Acceptance is saying yes to the
existence. Out of surrender arises
deep relaxation. Out of surrender
arises a fresh intelligence. Trust
means continuing to be in action
with intelligence instead of
intellect. Trust is an attitude. It is
not a substitute for appropriate
action. The spirit of trust is the
essence of the very life. It leads to
innocence, surrender, relaxation
and bliss.
© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
Surrendering is allowing
existence to happen through you.
When you are trusting and
surrendering it becomes difficult
to cheat you. Innocence trust
always protects from deceit.
When we come to the present
moment we are open and
innocent because there is a no
mind in the present. For the
mind to exist there has to be
movement towards the past or
the future.

© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
In the present moment, there is no
past or future. To be trusting and
surrendering is like losing the 'I'
and the 'mine'. Ego starts with
'mine' and then move to 'I'. Even
before the identity of 'I' set in the
mind corners into play.
Surrendering is nothing but
merging with existence with no
identity of 'I' or 'mine'. The mind
is a direct conflict to the being.

STORY
FOR
INNOCENCE
© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved

STORY FOR INNOCENCE
BRIEF OF THE STORY : On the banks of a river there lived a sage in a small plot of land owned by a farmer. The village chief did not like the sage and wanted to buy the piece of land. The village chief was ready to pay any amount of money.
VILLAGE CHIEF: I want the small plot which you own and I am ready to pay any amount of money.
FARMER: If I sell the land to you, will you drive the sage away once it becomes yours.

© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
STORY FOR INNOCENCE
VILLAGE CHIEF: Why do you call him a saint? Just because he is wearing an orange robe? He must be an ordinary man like us
FARMER: No sir, I have seen many signs of a sage in him. For example I have never seen him getting angry.
THE VILLAGE CHIEF: Tomorrow come to his hut and I will show you how angry he will be. The next day morning the farmer went near the sage's hut and watched. A boy apparently sent by the village chief approached the sage. The sage was writing something on the palm leaf. The boy went behind him and spat on him. The sage looked back, saw that it was the boy who did it,

STORY FOR INNOCENCE
got up and took a dip in the river and came back and sat. The boy spat again and the sage went and had a dip again. The farmer could not bear to see what was happening. The village chief was standing behind a tree and watching as well. He was surprised at the sage's calmness. Every time the sage returned from the dip, the boy spat on him. Every time the sage smiled at him, got up and went and dipped. The boy had spat on the sage for 107 times. He could not bear it any more. He fell at the sage's feet and cried.
BOY: Please forgive me. I have sinned. I harassed you in this manner only because I was paid to do so. I am afraid that you might curse me now!
SAGE: So you will not spit on me again?

© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
STORY FOR INNOCENCE
BOY: I would rather die than spitting again.
SAGE: Let me tell you a secret. I should actually thank You for this because many years ago I had taken a vow that I would dip hundred and eight times in this sacred river. Today that has been fulfilled. I have to dip one more time to complete the Vow. This time I will pray for you. The sage dipped one more time and when he come out, the village chief was at his feet begging for forgiveness.
VILLAGE CHIEF: I am the real sinner. I paid the boy to do this. I wanted to prove that you would get angry.
SAGE: Had the boy told me his real mission. I would have got angry quickly and made him to receive his reward. The village chief became a disciple of the sage.

WHAT YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT INNOCENCE?
VOLUME 3
THE SPH NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM
DROP
CUNNINGNESS
AND BECOME
SPONTANEOUS
© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
INTRODUCTION
To reiterate day before topic and introduce to the children about dropping cunningness and become spontaneous. Cunningness is the opposite of intelligence. You can be either cunning or intelligent never both at the same time. Cunningness is also the opposite of vulnerability. When you are cunning, you cannot be vulnerable. When you are vulnerable, you are pure like a child. A child can be intelligent and innocent at the same time.

Overtime his intelligence grows but the innocence invariably takes a turn to become cunningness societal conditioning causes the innocence in the intelligence to take the turn into cunningness. We hold a great responsibility in bringing up children without making them cunning. The problem is that we know only to divide and look. We never know to look as a whole. Cunningness is division. It is a constant calculation. In hinders free and innocent expression.
Innocence is lost when the mind is
taught to divide. The danger with
cunningness is that it grows roots in
many directions and solidifies as the
very nature of the individual. The
person will not even know he is
cunning. Unless you are tired of being
cunning, you can't be helped. No
technique can help you because your
cunningness knows how to escape
from every single technique.
Cunningness is a pure hide and seeks
game that you play with yourself.
When cunningness dissolves,
authenticity and sincerity happens and
you will be enlightened. Gossip is a
pure expression of cunningness. When
you drop cunningness, spontaneity
flowers. Spontaneity is the opposite of
calculation.

© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
Intelligence plus innocence is spontaneity. Spontaneity is nothing but a flowering expression of your innocence. With cunningness you lose your innocence. Losing your innocence is like losing your entire life. You can afford to lose anything but not your innocence. When you are spontaneous you are without any conclusions. Intelligence is in the present moment. Conclusion is a foregone thing it is of the past. Existence never repeats patterns.

WHAT IS
INNOCENCE,
TOTALITY &
MATURITY?
© 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. All Rights Reserved
INTRODUCTION

When you came into the world, you came as an innocent infant. You radiated the beauty of your innocence until society gives you the mind. Now, we want to get rid of your mind and become innocent again, the regained innocence is what is called maturity. It is possible to regain it. We have to believe, we were innocent once upon a time. Trust that innocence is still within you. Then it is possible to start radiating it again. This understanding will start the process again.
Maturity causes us to live in totality.
Totality is functioning out of
immense innocence and giving
your whole to the moment. There
are no options, no judgment, and
no fragments within you. There is
only intense enthusiasm for the
moment. The openness to the
moment is the innocence. Just one
thing is needed to become
innocent one again. Don't hide
behind false knowledge.

Always feel your natural self at
your core with no strain, with no
effort or pretensions. Innocence
is keeping the consciousness at
the level of the heart, not
allowing it to settle in the head.
The problem of falsity comes
because society teaches you to be
someone special all the time.
There is no need to be someone
special all the time. When you
drop the mind, you fall into the
moment. Maturity is taking a
strong decision not to decide you
anymore. It is to awaken to the
consciousness within. It is to
integrate yourself with honesty.
When we regain the innocence,
we flower with the
understanding that there is
nothing more priceless than
becoming childlike again.
Innocence is the way to
approach life.

Getting the innocence disturbed
and working to regain it
permanently is the process of
maturity. If a child is brought up in
love, the innocence of the child is
preserved. Then he moves around
with his heart not with his head.
The beauty of maturity is that it
allows you to function as a mature
person when required and as a
child at all other times. Innocence
has a totality about it. This totality
is called grace. Being innocent is
like functioning from your very
consciousness. It is thoughtless
awareness. The problem is that we
are afraid of losing what society
taught us from society we learnt
how to build our personality. But
our character is different from our
personality. Character is real.
Personality is a built up image.
