What is Inner Awakening all about?🔗

Inner Awakening gives you a chance to experience and express as many components of jeevan mukti as possible!

You will come to understand Inner Awakening best by the transformations you experience within.

If you are experiencing abundant energy, powerful clarity, a fresh impetus to explore and enjoy life - that's your Inner Awakening.

If you are feeling more relaxed, more blissful, more deeply connected with yourself and others

If you feel you've waited all your life to experience and express the truths you receive here - you know that Inner Awakening has really happened in you... are not beautiful unto ourselves. It makes us run after something or other to add value to

ourselves. So psychologically, we are low on energy.

There are numerous techniques to raise the energy levels in the body – specific physical

postures, breathing techniques, deep cleansing processes (kriyas) and meditation.

Living intensely at high energy levels, and radiating this energy in whatever you do, is an

important component of living enlightenment.

‘I am more self-inspired, energetic and spontaneous. There are no confusions in business-life decision-making.

Transform your emotions like depression, fear, guilt, stress...

If you wish, you can transform a negative emotion into a positive emotion, with just a simple decision.

Transforming emotions is nothing but understanding emotions. Once you understand them, you will never get caught in them. You will live in the world like a lotus lives in water - neck deep in it, but untouched by it..!

- Nithyananda

What is emotion?

All your emotions are nothing but pure energy! Your desires, your anger, your fear - all these are nothing but the same energy to which you are giving different names. It is the same energy which plays inside you as the contrary emotions of love and hatred, anger and fear - depending on your state of mind.

When you are caught in a powerful emotion, you cannot see that it is nothing but the simple play of energy. You feel trapped in your emotions only because you don't realize this.

Once you experience this simple truth, no emotion can have any control over your inner space again. Now you are in control! You can play with this energy in any way you want.

Handle inner world and outer world situations with ease

What is 'living a conflict-free life'?

It is living completely at ease with your body, your mind and the circumstances that you experience in the outer world.

We continuously experience some conflict or other every moment - in our relationships, in our goals, in our desires, in life-situations. We invariably attribute our conflicts to someone or something in the outer world. We blame the outer world for it.

People ask me, 'Swamiji, how can I be conflict-free in a world that is filled with conflict? Only when the whole world is silent, happy and peaceful can I become conflict-free.'

Understand, that is never going to happen! There is no such thing as bringing peace into the whole world. All problems are usually created by people who try to make the world peaceful!

In the last 3000 years, several thousand wars have been fought. Every leader who declared war claimed that he was going to bring peace to the world!

A conflict-free world starts with a conflict-free individual.

To start living a conflict-free life, all you need to do is bring in the energy to change the things that need to change in your life, and the intelligence to accept what need not change. Above all, understand that whether you change anything or not, life itself is a continuously changing phenomenon. Once you realize this, you will naturally hold onto the one thing that never changes: the eternally unchanging Truth. Then you will automatically be conflict-free.

When you start living a conflict-free life, you start living enlightenment. When there is no conflict inside, you experience no conflict in the world!

'I feel more grounded, more centered. Now, when problems come up, there is still emotion, but I am not caught in the emotion. There is even an underlying giggle!'

Relate beautifully with yourself, with people, with life...

What is a relationship? A relationship is that which can reveal to you those dimensions that you don't even know exist inside you!

Often, it is only after entering into a relationship that people realize that they are capable of such deep emotions! Only when you love someone do you realize that you can also love and sacrifice so much for the sake of someone else. When we are born, we are complete. But we are not aware of many of our hidden dimensions. Relationships have the power to awaken our unknown dimensions, so that we as well as the world may experience them. When you fall in love, whether it is with a man, a woman or a child, a deity or a Master, you re-experience yourself in new ways. With the flowering of a relationship, you become more responsible, more flowing. You experience the very juice of life.

- Nithyananda

‘Even earlier I used to be a positive person. I used to maintain my relationships in a smooth way. I used to try and manage situations well, but I was still trying. Now, after Inner Awakening, I don't try anything, but life has become so smooth! I just live like a river. I am so happy in any situation, and spending time with people is such a pleasure for me now. - Shannon Kim, Korea

‘I have heard so many wonderful stories about the changes that happened in peoples’ lives after attending Inner Awakening. My wife attended the program last summer, and the changes in her are very inspiring. She is radiating bliss. She is enjoying life so much more. Our relationship has really blossomed. She is much more focused on our kids when she is with them. I want to learn the same tools!

Can you get rich by being happy?

Yes! It is possible.

Our thoughts and energy flow have the capacity to create and attract incidents and people of the same nature into our lives. Our thoughts and energy directly affect our body, our cell structure, our decisions, our capacity to carry out those decisions, the incidents in the outer world, even the accidents that happen in our lives!

Most of the time, our actions are prompted by either the desire to gain something, or the fear of losing something. When we function out of greed or fear, we create a negative mental setup and corrupt our energy

Become a leader without feeling the stress

At some point, all of us have to face the challenge of decision-making. Taking decisions without dilemma is an important expression of living enlightenment. The sages of ancient times lived a dilemma-free life with ease. How was it possible? They operated out of the 'intuitive' zone, where they were able to connect to the energy of the cosmos and harness the solutions that emerged from it. So decision-making was effortless.

All great scientific discoveries were made from the intuitive zone, where the solutions were simply 'revealed' to the scientists at certain moments. Albert Einstein says, 'The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant.' In the moment of revelation, it is always the intuitive mind which cognizes the solution in an instant. The rational mind is brought in only to work out the logical steps in presenting the discovery! But today, we honor the servant and have forgotten the gift. And so we carry the constant irritation of having to take decisions based on the intellect. Intuitive decision-making frees us from dilemma and stress. When we function intuitively, we are tuning in to a macro-intelligence that ensures that the best solution for all emerges effortlessly.

Since I met Paramahamsa Nithyananda, my life has completely changed. My understanding of life, my perception and my way of looking at the world have expanded so much. I understood that I am part of Existence and experiencing it is simply wonderful. I’m experiencing GOD as a living, present, available presence which overflows with love for all of us.

Every single thing happening in your life is directly connected to some deeply engraved memories or engrams of the past that are stored in your body. Removing these engrams is making friends with your body. This is the best way to heal. We store so much pain and suffering in our unconscious in the form of engrams.

Almost all the physical illnesses in our system are expressions of these engrams.

Meditation directly attacks the root cause of the engrams and the suffering they generate, thereby healing the unconscious.

A lady doctor came to our program around two years ago. She had a tumor at the base of her spine for which she had undergone surgery three times. But again and again, the tumor was growing in the same place.

During the meditation, she suddenly started crying profusely, uncontrollably.

I asked her, ‘What happened?’

She told me, ‘I suddenly re-lived the guilt.’

At a young age, she had been physically abused by a relative, and this memory had been brought up by the meditation.

Any true desire of yours carries its own energy for fulfillment. But are all your desires truly your own? There are so many desires which you create by comparing yourself with others! These borrowed desires only drain your energy away from your real needs. And even if you fulfill these desires, you will feel no real satisfaction – because they were not your own desires in the first place! There are techniques to recognize your true desires. Once you recognize them, all you need to do is set your honest intention on them and align every action towards them, continuously and intensely. They will automatically get fulfilled.

Sometimes, you come and tell me, ‘I am really passionate (about something) but it is not happening.’ It means, you are using your passion only to question the system, not to align your actions to your intentions! You are using your passion to question the whole process of manifesting desires. Instead, use the passion to align your actions towards the passion. And have the patience to tackle the mind which constantly questions the system. Then you will find, things are just happening. Living this way, with abundant energy and a relaxed being, is living enlightenment!

There are two levels of creativity: ordinary creativity and higher creativity. Ordinary creativity is expressed when you want to be a creator for some time. It is focused on a particular task, for a particular period. Then there is something called ‘higher creativity’. This type of creativity happens when you become a free channel for the creative energy of the Cosmos itself, allowing it to flow through you, and express itself as creativity in whatever you are doing! It is effortless creativity happening every moment through you.

This is the aim of all the meditation techniques, and the mission of all the great enlightened Masters. When you start expressing higher creativity, everything you do becomes a creative act. You will be overflowing with spontaneity. You start radiating jeevan mukti, living enlightenment.

‘During IA not only you get to learn the deep Vedic truths in a simple and most scientific way but also experience it yourself ! IA is not about just listening but about applying, practicing and imbibing till you start living the wonderful transformation.’ - Arpit Singhal, Investment Banker, Singapore

Facing your fears and living a full life

Whether we are aware of it or not, there is only one reason for all our fears: we are not able to face the ever-changing nature of life! We are wary of life, because life is always moving, and we are terrified of letting go. We try to hold on to things, to people, to feelings, to situations – not realizing that it is impossible to hold on to anything in life. All our fears are rooted in the fear of change or loss, which is nothing more than the fear of death, in a subtle form. Losing our possessions, our social status, our identity – all these are like daily deaths for us. A simple change in the way we understand life and death can free

us of all our fears. Start looking at everything that happens in your life with the understanding that change is the nature of life: it is the very reason why life is so colorful and interesting. Then you can see the mysteries of life unfold beautifully, including the ultimate mystery of death. When you face the fear of death, you see that death is not something that happens at the end of your life. Every moment you die, and the next moment you are reborn. The old is constantly being destroyed to create space for the new. When this understanding happens, you lose all fear. You start really living your life. You start enjoying every breath that you take on planet Earth.

‘I feel so much closer to the truth. I have no fear even of my own death.’

Liberate yourself from the mind!

Do you know that the mind is not a solid thing, as you imagine?

What you call ‘mind’ is no more than a constant flow of thoughts,

where each thought is being swiftly replaced by the next.

You hardly have any control over what thought is going to enter your

mind next - because thoughts themselves flow in an illogical, chaotic manner.

But we give too much respect to this chaotic mind! We base our whole life on the dictates

of the mind.

For instance, we start connecting a few thoughts that run through our mind, and start giving

profound meanings to them. If you believe that your whole life has been suffering, you

unconsciously collect and connect only the painful incidents of your life, which strengthen

your belief that life is suffering. This is called creating a ‘pain shaft’ – making an imaginary

connection between disconnected painful incidents, which gives the impression that life

itself is painful.

Sometimes, very rarely, you believe life is joy! Then you connect all the joyful incidents and

Every moment is auspicious, because it is a gift from Life!

We are constantly trying to understand Existence with our own logic. We forget that Existence is beyond our logic! Often, many things happen in our life which we cannot understand with our mind. At such times, if you look into the incident sincerely, you can see that whatever is happening is actually auspicious. What needs to be taken away from you at that moment is taken away; what needs to be added to you is being added to you. But because we cannot understand or cope with some sudden changes, we may feel pain during the process. Once you understand that logic cannot measure or express the truth of Existence, you start enjoying everything without judgment. This may sound very difficult at first, but it is not. Once you experience the sweetness of flowing effortlessly with life, you will understand that life is causeless auspiciousness. You can also look at it another way. You can say life is causeless chaos. Then you become a materialist. You continuously abuse and disrespect everything. Either the whole of Existence can become a miracle for you, or it can become a curse. If you look at it as causeless chaos, life becomes a curse. If you think it is causeless auspiciousness, your life can become a daily miracle!

‘All I needed to know about my life has been answered in these 21 days. Now every moment I feel intense joy and happiness for no reason at all. What a liberation!! This truly is living enlightenment...’ - Ravikumar S, Research Engineer, Singapore

Having a deep connection with Existence

God designed this world with only one purpose – to make you experience His love. Just like a lover wants to bring the moon and the stars for his beloved, the Divine brings you the moon, the stars, the whole sky and beyond. All He wants to see is a smile on your face and a blissful overflowing in your

being, as you enjoy these wonderful gifts He has made just for you. There is no other purpose to life. It is a straight and simple universe inviting you to play with It and experience the joy of pure romance with It.

Even what you think of as your problems and suffering are nothing more than a hard hug from life! Life is simply revealing itself in one more way to you, but when you resist, you experience that dimension of life as suffering. If we look without judgment, we can see the truth of this.

By nature, each of us has as much bliss energy inside us as a

Healing self and others by awakening your energy

Every one of us has the potential to be a healer!

Each time you speak healing words to someone, or take a moment to help

someone in need, or contribute to a worthy cause, you are already

helping to heal the world.

Healing is nothing but helping another person regain a state of

physical, mental and emotional well-being. Spiritual healing is one

specific, scientific way to heal people in body, mind and spirit, by

harnessing the universal or cosmic energy.

Cosmic energy is different from, say, electrical energy. It is not a blind

force, but a conscious energy that knows where to go and what to do.

When you heal someone, the cosmic energy simply flows through you

and takes care of the rest.

Spiritual healing does more than keep your body free of disease. It helps you live

with abundant energy and a beautiful blissful feeling at all times.

To heal yourself and others, you don't have to do much. All you have to do is open

yourself to the abundant energy of the cosmos. This energy is a tremendous healing

power. Once you are initiated as a spiritual healer, you continuously feel the cosmic

Feeling connected to the Whole

In Existence, there is nothing such as a separate, individual identity!

Even if we don't always experience this in our everyday life, we are all intimately connected at the deepest level.

As we work with deeper and deeper layers of ourselves, we begin to see this truth.

At the level of the physical body, each individual is distinctly separate. For example, if you eat a fruit, only you enjoy the fruit; even a person sitting right next to you cannot taste it.

When you move to a subtler layer like breath, you find that the same air moves in and out of everyone's body; many people can share the fragrance of the same flower.

At the level of the mind, you may think you are separate, but we are all constantly relaying and receiving thought signals without our awareness!

Our emotions also affect others without our having to say a word. As we go deeper, we find that we are increasingly connected to the collective consciousness. At the deepest level of the being, we are all just part of the one Whole.

All the suffering you experience, whether it is physical pain or mental suffering or spiritual bondage, is born only out of the idea of being a separate being. Once you become aware that you are part of the collective consciousness and there is no one standing against you, you experience a deep relaxation and liberation.

'After Inner Awakening for the very first time in my life I truly experienced what it is to be alive.I have so much evergy now. I've been able to handle more responsabilities than I used to in the past. Life is so much easier after attending this program. If I have any problem, the solution simply comes to me.'

'I feel a sense of belongingness and purpose – like a river coming to the ocean. It feels like home!'

'I have been given an opportunity to watch him (Swamiji) blessing people, and even when I am not the one receiving, I start to feel it energetically!'
