The courage of being established in

the peak of your capability, and

responding to life from who you

perceive to be for yourself, who you

project yourself to be for others,

what others expect you to be for

them and what you expect them to

be for you is what is called śraddhā,

Authenticity. Authenticity is you

being established and responding to

life from who you believe yourself to

be ,who you believe yourself to be

for others and what others believe

you to be for them.

WHAT IS

"SHRADDHA"?

Living in your peak capacity in all the four identities,

  • INNER IMAGE mamakara
  • outer image ahankara -others image anyakara
  • life image svanyakara

aligning your life to all the four
dimensions, and expressing your peak
potential in all these four, is
Authenticity, Śraddha!

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN

YOU PRACTICE AUTHENTICITY?

When you practice shraddha, cosmos will grant to you anything you want, your life will become a possibility.

If authenticity is not continuously BEING Practiced, you cannot be a possibility, you are dead! Constantly make authenticity a practice, in your work, in your thinking, in your health! Constantly expand your thinking, constantly expand your perception!

IS THE PRACTICE

OF AUTHENTICITY HARD?

Its not so hard to practice authenticity. You just need some time with yourself. Authenticity is a self complete technique, from the beginning to the end. It means bringing yourself out of the mood of powerlessness again and again. When you are powerless, feeling very agitated and uncomfortable, completely wash yourself with authenticity.

HOW TO PRACTICE AUTHENTICITY?

Develop Listening To Master Authenticity

When you develop listening, you will not be

able to carry inauthenticity in you. Unless

you become authentic to listening, you will

feel agitated, bored, irritated and try to jump

to conclusions. A person who listens patiently

without any tiredness to every speaker, is

integrated he has found his authenticity. Only

then he is able to effectively transmit the

truth to others.

HOW TO PRACTICE

AUTHENTICITY?

Develop Listening To Master

Authenticity Constantly practicing authenticity brings you to the space of possibility. Śraddha or Authenticity continuously connects you with yourself and your highest possibility whether it is being a good speaker or a good listener. Life is for realizing that possibility. Life is for realizing the Self. Life is for realizing itself.

HOW TO PRACTICE

AUTHENTICITY?

Authentically authenticating authenticity

means again and again saying no to the

mind which says “it is okay”. When you

constantly fill yourself with authenticity,

authenticity itself becomes a power. You

have to make sure that authenticity gives

you the power. It empowers you. It

constantly gets you out of the space of

powerlessness.

Nithyananda

HOW DOES BEING AUTHENTIC HELP YOU?

The power of passion and the power of patience both express in their extreme, only when you are authentic. Bring authenticity and the ability to stretch yourself to complete the anyakaras of everyone around you. Anyakara is what others feel about you, it is not a curse but a possibility for your expansion. Every time you raise yourself to others anyakara, every time you stretch yourself to fulfill others anyakara, you achieve completion.

Nithyananda Paramashivam

When you authentically commit,
so much of energy is sent to your
body and mind, and your laziness
pattern is broken. Whatever you
commit will become your reality
because that is what is in your
inner space. When you commit
that you are going to do it, the
cosmos immediately sends energy
to your body and mind and you do
it.

ALIGN YOUR THINKING THROUGH AUTHENTICITY AND THE FOUR TATTVAS

What is right thinking?

The thinking based on dharma. Aligning all your

thinking based on the cognition of the four

principles—tattvas of integrity, authenticity,

responsibility and enriching is right thinking

ALIGN YOUR THINKING

TO AUTHENTICITY

It is neither difficult nor easy, but you

have to do it! It is nothing but tuning

yourself to a certain frequency. How

tuning or changing a channel is neither

difficult nor easy, it is a simple

technique; same way, go on tuning your

thinking to śraddha, authenticity. Always

think about your thinking and align your

thinking to authenticity

WHAT IS MAMAKARA – INNER IMAGE?

Floral motif

Mamakara - what you feel as you—
inner image. Your own expectation
about you is mamakāra or Inner Image.
It is the inner idea and the experience
you carry about yourself like—I am
healthy, I am ugly, I am intelligent, I
cannot tolerate hard work, I love
people etc. But, the idea you carry
about you is always less than what you
project yourself to be for others!.

WHAT IS AHAMKARA - OUTER IMAGE?

Ahankara - what you
project you to others—
outer image
The second identity is how
you show or project
yourself to others called
ahaṁkāra or Outer Image.
Unfortunately, what you
project is always far more
than what you believe
yourself to be.

WHAT IS ANYAKARA

  • OTHERS IMAGE?

Anyakara - what others hold you as—others’ image The third identity you carry is the image that others have about you, how others expect you to be, called anyakāra or Others’ Image. How others perceive you may be different from how you project yourself to them, because people create their opinion about you from the subtle signals you give them, rather than what you openly project. Humans are intelligent enough to catch even what you don’t say or especially what you don’t say!

Nithyananda Paramashivam

WHAT IS

SVANYAKARA - LIFE IMAGE?

Svanyakara - what you think about
others and life—life image
And the fourth identity is very
subtle, because it is not directly
related to you. It is how you
experience life to be for you and
what you expect others to be,
called svānyakāra or Life Image.
For example, you may feel—life is
lonely, life is complicated or life is
sacred or life is scary, or life and
people are always showering me
with everything! Please understand,
this is also your identity, because it
defines the exact experience you
will be receiving from the people
and situations from life

Someone inauthentic is shouting at you even though you have done everything properly, you start feeling powerless. So the first thing you do is to do instant completion with any person or any situation even when you are right and others say you are wrong. Next what you do is to declare in front of the group to take the responsibility for the other person's inauthenticity and be a cause for it and start taking responsibility for it. This will make you a REAL LEADER

THE BENEFITS OF

PRACTICING AUTHENTICITY

#4 Authenticity Empowers You!

Authenticity empowers you. When you are powerless, feeling very agitated and uncomfortable, completely wash yourself with authenticity. By nature, a person with a body and mind has to act in one way or the other. If you follow your nature with authenticity, you can be comfortable and flow in tune with Existence. When you are relaxed, when you are blissful, you express yourself beautifully

RADIATE
AUTHENTICITY TO
REOPEN THE
DiMENSION OF
iNNOCENCE WiTHiN
YOU!

Unless innocence happens intimacy cannot happen. Intimacy is the language of Existence. The mind doesn't know intimacy. Only the being knows it. With intimacy there is openness and you can say and do everything that you feel genuinely and earnestly about. There will be authenticity in your words and actions. You will radiate energy that spurs the others around you to be innocent and open. Then the real beauty of Existence can be experienced.
