The Avatar℠'s Experience of Oneness with the Whole🔗

Reading about The Avatar℠'s glimpses and then ultimately with the experience is the perfect first complete immersion into that state.

somenoe knows the perfect experience, they can adopt that as their own ambition. What's more, with his description of his own awakening, it's so clear that every power he is giving to his devotees, he has achieved himself. Every single technique he gives, he has time tested on himself first. They have become a reality in him so deeply that it is easy for him to make it a reality within everyone. With his grace, he is constantly allowing people to experience the same Oneness that he is in, first with

Attheageof12, ParamahamsaNithyananda's enlightenment experience was the ultimate Third Eye Awakening℠. He immediately felt that he was alive in everything around him, in Advaita with the universe. Suddenly, the entire Cosmos was just a blink away, eager to pull him into it, into the samadhi state. He beautifully describes it in his own words.

Every day, that Arunachala hill was living. It was never the same old hill which I saw yesterday. No. I had a very funny routine. Everyday morning when I got up from my bed, I will not open my eyes. I will slowly walk from my room; walk outside the house holding the parapet wall and come out, and stand in a particular spot. Usually I know from that spot the hill will be seen. I will stand in that spot and then only open my eyes so that first thing I see in the morning is that hill. I will see the Arunachala hill.

And somehow my brothers know this. They know that first thing as soon as I wake up, I would want to see the hill. And they wanted to make fun or tease me. By the time they know I am out from my bed and I am slowly walking, they will come and stand exactly in front of me. If I open my eyes and did not see the hill, and saw any of them, I will go back and lie down again. I will not do anything that day. I will not do my daily activities, I will not go to bathe, and I will go back and lie down again, sleep for half an hour again, get up and slowly walk and come back to the spot and open my eyes. Only if I see the hill first thing in the morning, I will do my routine.

It was very funny and looks little superstitious. But I always felt I took birth or I took the body because of the attraction, the pull the hill has got for enlightened beings. There is a very beautiful verse in Tamil about this hill which attracts enlightened beings around it. This hill is specially respected for attracting enlightened beings not only on this planet Earth, even from other planets. Even from other different spaces it can attract and pull the enlightened beings to the Planet Earth. So I never took the hill for granted. It was an ‘ever living presence’.

were originating from. As I began to see the source of my thought slowly, the first clarity that happened to me was that I am not solid as I always think. The body and mind are not solid. It is just liquid, porous, and empty. You can go in and come out. You can get out or get in. Anything can be done. First truth was I am an empty, porous being.

Second step slowly I saw that the eyes have closed. Because of the deep silence, I did not even feel like sitting with open eyes. The eyes closed by itself. Next thing something opened inside, which is beyond these two eyes. The moment that opened, I was not only able to see the front side, but I was also able to see all the 360 degrees. Understand all 360 degrees. Understand it was not just seeing, I could feel the whole thing was me. Understand if you see something with closed eyes you are only seeing inside your inner space. You are feeling it. You are not just seeing it. I can't even say I saw 360 degrees. I just felt it was completely broken- the idea of boundary, border was broken. And I could see completely 360 degrees. All the eight directions, above and below, both.

Not only that how alive you feel inside your body, that same life, that same presence I experienced with everything around me. Now all of you know you are present inside your skin. That same presence I experienced with everything, with the hill, with the temple, with the village, with the trees, with the rocks, with everything. I was just intensely feeling that I was present in everything. It was an intense, deep presence.

May be for a few hours I did not even remember the body. After that vaguely

Second or third day after this experience happened, I called him and told him: I want to tell you something important. He asked me: What is it? He is my close friend and classmate. We always used to play together. Practically he was like a disciple. Wherever I go and do puja and temple cleaning and other spiritual activities, he would help me and assist me.

I told him: Let's go to one corner of the temple and sit and talk. We went to one corner of the temple and we sat and I told him: See since two days I am able to see all 360 degrees, all the directions without turning my head. And first thing I could see was that he had the shock. He just started laughing. Even though he had the shock he does not want to show it. He said: You are a fool. What are you talking about? I said: No. No. I am not a fool. If you want you can experiment on me and see if I am telling the truth.

I said: I can see the people walking in front. In the temple there were so many people who were coming and going. I said to him: I am able to see that. I can see the people walking on the side. I can see behind the tree. There is a tree and on that tree ants are climbing. Ants are going up and down. I can see that. The moment I said that behind the tree I can see the ants moving, the fellow had the shock. He got up. He did not sit anymore. He got up. He said: No, No you may have seen the ants before you sat down, that is why you are able to say that now. I'll challenge you. He took a coin and said: I will hold it behind your head. You should tell me which side I am holding, whether it is head or tail. Kids will have only half a rupee or one rupee coin in those days. He took a coin from his pocket and put it behind my head ten times or so. And all the ten times I told him correctly whether it was head or tail. Not only that I told him:

Hey there is some dust on the coin, clean the coin. The moment I said that it was a shock to him.

He said: Be here. I will come back. I want to go to the restroom. I’ll come back. I told him: No, no, no, no wait, wait I will finish talking. If you also want to have the same experience, go to that place where I was sitting. I told him the name of that place- Pavazha Kundru. I told him: Go and sit there. You will have the same experience. Three days ago only, I went and sat there. I was not even aware that something unique had happened to me. I thought anybody who goes and sits there will experience what I had experienced. I told him: Go and sit there you will get it. By that time that fellow got frightened. He thought I may force him and take him and make him sit there. Because always whatever I experience I will tell him and see that he also goes to the temple and has that same experience. That was the usual trend.

So he was trying to run and said: No, no, no. I will come later on. I will go to the restroom. He was frightened and he first wants to go to restroom. I caught hold of him. I said: No, no, no, come, come. Listen completely then go and sit there. By the time I caught hold of him he started trembling. He started trembling, literally shaking. And I understood he really did not want to go to the restroom. He just wanted to escape from me. That is why he said that he wanted to go to the restroom. I just caught hold of him in one hand and tried to pull him in the other hand very strongly to take him to that place where I had this experience.

I can say that was the first time I felt two separate bodies but the same, one presence which I feel every time I touch somebody and give energy darshan. I know the first person who received energy darshan. The first transmission of that experience had started happening. I felt very clearly, two bodies but one presence. I felt one with everything.

And by the time I held him by both the hands and this experience started happening he settled down. He did not have fear. When I took my hands away, again the fear started. Not only started, this time he just ran away. He just ran away. He stood from the safe distance and said: No, no I am really going to the restroom. You sit here. I will come back and call you. Don't come till I call you. And he ran away. He never came back.

I will never go near the rock. I suffered terrible depression. I used to curse that rock, not the rock, I thought there is a ghost and that ghost has caught me. I used to curse that ghost, I don't know what happened, what ghost caught me.

It is like ...see the pins are removed, and you don't know what to hold on. It is like if you are walking with a blanket completely covering you, you will feel completely comfortable, and you are habituated for that. Suddenly that blanket is floating, and how will you walk? It is just floating around you only but it is not completely covering you. How will you feel? It is like your skin is peeled and it is just floating around you and all your bone, flesh and everything is exposed. See, it is like you are covering yourself like a blanket your skin and suddenly one moment all the pins are removed. There is no pain but your own skin is nicely ironed and it is floating behind you and you are walking.

You will not know what is going on with your flesh, bones, anything. And you

Give me weapon to kill this tiger. I want to kill this tiger.’ Somebody is standing next to you, ‘Eh, relax. Don’t shout. You are dreaming and shouting.’ Same thing they did to me. They said, ‘Don’t bother. Relax. You are going through something.’ So that helped. That is why I have so much respect for them. They themselves have not added enlightenment to me. They are not that strong channels but they were able to add some support at that moment. At that moment it was really great. Kuppammal and Raghupati Yogi did not add enlightenment to me but they added something at that moment - a very strong support. Wonderful thing they did. Years later, Paramahamsa Nithyananda described this experience as him becoming established in the turiya state, the fourth state of ‘alive’consciousness. At the age of 22, in the year 2000, at Omkareshwar, Central India he fell into a deep samadhi. For the next nine months, he remained in that state, where it felt as though he had grown so enormous that his body was too small a thing to be centered around. It was then, during these nine months, that he transitioned from this state to the Turiyatita where he realized his incarnation-hood. He has no memory associated with the time of that transition. He only remembers when he fell into samadhi and when he entered back into his body.

Since then, he has been operating from the level where only avatars like Sri Rama, Sri Krishna, Devi Meenakshi or Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa reside in forever. Many powerful spiritual leaders have remained only in the turiya state for all of their lives. Many couldn’t even dream of getting there so early in life.

The Avatar™, having had conscious birth, will be wired to experience this early so that they can begin their mission on Earth as soon as possible. For Paramahamsa Nithyananda, this means awakening the Third Eye of millions on the planet.
