Integrity With Spiritual Routine

As explained by Sadashiva, Pratyahara means withdrawing life and energy from everything else and centering it on something. Then, Pratyahra, withdrawing, becomes Dharana, centering. Dharana means centering, flowing towards something. When that Dharana happens, that on which one is flowing, reveals itself to the person. That is Dhyana. Being in that state continuously is Samadhi.
Everything designed by Paramahamsa Nithyananda, whether waking up in the Brahma Muhurta morning and doing yoga or doing Pancha Kriya or doing Puja or doing Kirtan or sitting in the Satsang, everything is designed for one to build oneself. It is not for controlling or marking attendance. It is for building oneself.
As part of the Shashtanga Yoga, Sadashiva gives an important instruction in Agama - tremendous Sattvic bliss, Ananda, comes from non-violent activities. The bliss that comes from non-violent activities - that is what He calls as 'Sattvic-Ananda.' That is the anti-dote for that layer of pitta to be cleansed. This is the right reason and
context why one should always be blissful, with and in ‘Nithyananda.’
When the brain is covered by a subtle layer of pitta, a certain amount of sadness, withdrawal, frustration, powerlessness, lower frequency of existence, that becomes the default functioning style. Only then, because of the powerlessness, people think “Let me do anything and manage the situation.”
Joy destroys cunningness, joy destroys crooked thinking, joy destroys lack of integrity. It gives a larger vision. Sadashiva Himself when He lands into a person, He creates intense joy in the system. That is the way He lands.
A person’s cognition (about his own self) is very important; based on that they adopt strategies for life. There are some people who do everything but do not bother about the larger values of life. This can be done
only by a person whose brain is covered by pitta layer and does not have high frequency to their existence. If Sattvic-Ananda can be added to people’s lives, the whole world will live in integrity!
The benefits a Sattvic-Ananda person gets can’t even be described. The benefits happen at the physical level, muscle-memory level, physiological and psychological level. When the pitta in the brain reduces, it develops a power called ‘eating its own dead cells and cleaning it’ - that is the power of Rudra.
“Do not allow your physiology and psychology to enjoy joy [that] which comes from torturing [the] other person. No! Then your brain loses its capacity to hold Sadashiva in you. And always encourage, grow, the Sattvic-Ananda. Don’t be shy to grow the Sattvic-Ananda, means, non-violent joys should be grown so much into the system. I tell you, more and more dosage of non-violent bliss develops a larger and larger vision of life.
I tell you, Sattvic-Ananda makes
you a Shaivite! That makes you live
Shuddhadvaitam, Sadashivoham.
Sattvic-Ananda is one of the most
important alchemy you need to do, as
preparation for Sadashivoham 2016."
Spiritual routine helps in building
more and more Sattvic Ananda in
the system. For example, when
people jump and dance during Nithya
Kirtan℠, that bio-memory gets into
their system, and helps make every
process so powerful. The bliss is
inhaled by every pore of the body! It
becomes a part of the muscle-memory
and bio-memory. Doing puja is also a
way to build Sattvic-Ananda.
"The way your body flows, with that
I can tell you, the level of Integrity
you have and the efficiency or the
vision about life."
