I will expand on the unique equation and relationship that exists between the state of responsibility and reality.

Feeling responsible happens in you when you start practicing integrity and authenticity. Only when you start practicing integrity and authenticity, you will realize that you are responsible for feeling deprived, for all your powerlessness. You are responsible for everything you experience.

Listen! Only when you understand that you are responsible for anything you feel in you as an incompletion, powerlessness or the feeling of being deprived, you will even start thinking in the angle of taking responsibility. When a person takes responsibility, so much flowers in him, so much happens in him!

Sometimes, I used to wonder. I have seen that even among my devotees, of two persons who have completed M.B.B.S from the same batch and come out of the same college – after thirty years, one will be the MD of chain of hospitals, while the other will be sitting in the same old village, attending to the same old ten patients for ten rupee per patients, with a big magnifying glass reading the same old newspaper! Why is it that from the same batch, same college and same training, two people come out, but one becomes the MD of a chain of hospital, while the other sits inside his own chains? Sometime, the MD of the hospital would have failed in few subjects in the college; as stories usually have it! Why?

Listen! The only difference, the only reason for difference is this - Feeling Responsible! Feeling responsible!

Yesterday, one sadhu from North India came to our ashram. He was talking to some of our sannyasis and sannyasinis in our Welcome Center.

When he saw all our sadhus intensely active, alive and working, he said, ‘This is the first time I am seeing a Hindu organization with so much of activism!’ He said that hundreds of them stay in his ashram. He said that he was tired of just

You are respon-
sible for feeling
deprived, for all
your powerlessness.
You are responsi-
ble for everything
you experience.

sleeping in the room. He was literally crying. He said, 'I am a sadhu for te last thirteen years. I am tired of just sleeping, sleeping and sleeping in the room! I came to learn some kriya, yoga, ways of initiation and methods to practice spirituality and teach.'

But you know - this is the worst part of the human mind - once you are settled, the patterns settle inside you wasting your life. After that, even if you suffer because of it, you don't come out of it. He left that evening! He said, 'Even this air is so dynamic! Inside your campus, even breathing is so dynamic!' Literally! He came and met one of my ashramites! And after all, he met the wrong ashramite, who is so dynamic, she straight away said, 'Which department do you want to take? Do you want to be in the temple? Do you want to be in the kitchen?' But he left.

Please listen! I tell you, this is an important fact. It only takes just four days for your muscle-memory to taste laziness, boredom and tiredness and settle down with it!

If a tiger has not tasted the salty blood, the human blood which is the most salty blood, it does not become man-hunters or man-eaters. Once it tastes the human blood, it becomes a man-eater. Understand, for a tiger, it only takes one human body. Then the bio-memory and muscle-memory of the tiger settles for man-eating. If it has not already tasted the human blood, it doesn't hunt human-beings; it doesn't attack human-beings; it doesn't eat human-beings. If it attacks a human-being by mistake or by hunger or for protection and tastes the human blood – because the human blood is the saltiest blood – if they taste the human blood by mistake, only then do they start attacking human beings and they become man-eaters. Understand, one meal, human meal, is required for the tiger, one human flesh meal is required for the tiger's muscle-memory to settle down as a man-eater.

In the same way, human-beings only need four days to settle down with tiredness, boredom and laziness.

Please listen! I am talking on something very important and very mystical! I tell you, never ever take a vacation of four days, continuously in your life! Do not allow four days of vacation in your life! The very frequency in which you function is reduced. Because, in four days, your muscle-memory gets settled with tiredness, boredom and laziness! Even if you are without a job for four days, be active in something. Go and meet your friends and family. Take up some voluntary service. Do not be without responsibility for four days.

It takes just four
days for your mus-
cle-memory to taste
laziness, boredom
and tiredness, and
settle down with it!

If you have some enemies and you want to destroy somebody, just somehow make him be without responsibility for four days. He will be destroyed! Don’t do that to yourself! Don’t do that to yourself! Don’t be without responsibility for four days. You may ask, ‘Why four days?’ It takes four days for anything to become part of your muscle-memory. If you don’t come for morning yoga and satsang for four days, on the fifth and sixth days, your muscle-memory will start proposing alternatives to you at that time. What are the alternatives? Sleeping, rolling on the bed, TV - there are so many things!

I want to tell all human-beings, whoever think of themselves as human-beings. Please listen! Do not allow laziness, tiredness and boredom continuously for four days, because that will then become a part of your muscle-memory. In any field, especially if you are in the field related to the body, like dance, yoga, sports, gymnastics - anything related to body, I tell you, don't give a gap of four days! If you are a sculptor, painter, artist, dancer or yoga practitioner, don't give a break for more than four days. Please don't give a break. If you give a break for just four days, your practice will have a drastic reduction in quality on the fifth day!

Only when you take responsibility does life happens to your body. If you have any disease, take responsibility for it, so that you can heal, help heal and then take care that you don't attract that disease back again.

And in the same way, if you have broken a relationship because of your irresponsibility and unconsciousness, now take the responsibility. Next time, you don't do it. Life does not end by breaking one relationship. You don't need to be depressed or you don't need to start being in that same space. When you take responsibility, you can even patch up the relationship you broke. You can approach the person and rebuild the relationship.

I did not wait for anything else to come. Listen, one of the biggest problem we have is this ‘let me have the power first, let me have the status first, let me have the position first, and then I will take the responsibility.’ No! That does not happen in life! Take the responsibility, build the state inside you. Then, after you have been tested by the cosmos, it gives you the status. That status can never be taken away.

I took the responsibility for teaching the science of enlightenment. I took the responsibility in my life. I started living it, I started building the state, and then human society has tested me enough. Now, I can simply see that many powerful positions are automatically coming towards me. Listen! I am not going in search of them. Responsibility attracts more responsibility. The problem is that we are afraid of more responsibility, so we deny even the responsibility that we have in our hand. But more and more responsibility adds more and more life-energy into you!

Why do you think these politicians don't die at all, even though everyone else is waiting for them to die? They live such a long life! No, really! Whether you like them or not, whether they are corrupt or non-corrupt, they take responsibility for something! At least they take the responsibility for their life to be a power centre. They take responsibility for something. They may be corrupt but when they take the responsibility, whether you want it or not, it is a cosmic law – life energy oozes in their muscle-memory, in their bio-memory, and they go on living! The rich old father-in-law and the rich old politicians don't die very easily! Even though there are so many waiting for them to die! When you take responsibility, life oozes in your muscle-memory for some reason. That is why they continue to exist.

A sannyasi is not 'out-fit' of the society; it is an 'over fit' of the society! A sannyasi is not 'out-fit' he is a 'over-fit'! India needs at least a hundred

Responsibility

responsibility.

thousand responsible sannyasis. Please listen! sannyas is not the lifestyle of depressed people or drop-outs. Consider this lifestyle. It is a lifestyle!

Feel responsible for everything you see around. If you see poverty around, feel responsible for it. If you see ignorance around, feel responsible for it. If you see lack of health around you, feel responsible for it.

Don't think, 'I am not the reason! I cannot be responsible!' You may not be the reason, but you are the cause! Sometime, you may not be the reason, but you are cause! Even if you are silently participating, you are cause.

Good people not working and not being active is the reason for all the bad things happening, more than bad people actively working! Bad people actively working is not the first reason for bad things happening. Good people not actively working is the first reason. Bad people actively working is only the second reason!

The first reason for terrorist attacks is not that the terrorists are actively working. The first reason is that good people are not actively participating with the society. Good people not actively participating in the society, in life, in the country - this is the first reason for all the bad things happening.

That is what our immediate need is. If you see corruption around you, take responsibility for it. If you see poverty around you, take responsibility for it. If you see ignorance around you, take responsibility for it. Take responsibility for everything.

When you take responsibility for everything, you will automatically become a sannyasi. Only a responsible sannyasi can solve the existing problem and bring a solution.

Take the responsibility. Even if you can't take sannyas, decide to take the responsibility for your life and the lives of the people around you. You will bring the right space.

Life itself does not happen inside your body, inside your nervous system and inside your brain without taking sannyas, without taking responsibility. sannyas means taking all the responsibility but not any powers or rights, continuously taking responsibility and making everyone experience responsibility.

‘out-fit’ of the
society but an ‘over
fit’ of the society!

The youth of India need to be inspired, encouraged and initiated into responsible sannyas! Responsibility alone can build you, build the nation and enrich humanity. India becoming an inspiring spiritual leader is not only a necessity for India but a necessity for the whole world!

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share, explode and enrich with eternal bliss – ‘Nithyananda’! Thank you!

As on now, man is only a possibility. A human being has everything needed in him to become the ultimate reality; the divine reality. Only when these four principles become a reality, do you experience your actuality.
