LIFE IS ALL ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS🔗

Today, I will expand on the fourth principle of life, enriching. Please listen!

Enriching means you taking the responsibility with integrity and authenticity that you are committed to continuously enriching, which is expanding yourself and life in and around you. Enriching means continuously expanding you with these four principles, and continuously enriching others to expand with these four principles.

Listen! This is the first question that will usually come in peoples' minds, especially, if you are a spiritual seeker. 'Why should I enrich others with these principles? If I live these principles, is that not enough? Why do I need to enrich others with these principles?' Most of you must be having this question!

You should understand. life happens to us outside us! Consciousness may be inside, but life is happening outside! If you are just sitting inside a cave in a deep jungle, you eat some forest fruits and drink the Ganga water and sleep and you don't see people at all, then you may not need to enrich others. But even then, you need to enrich the tree which gives you fruit and the river which gives you water! In our life, in practical life, life is happening to us outside us!

Let's analyze this, internalize this and understand. manana - let us do manana - contemplation, and understand this. Who are you? You are just a collection of all your identities. I can take any one example. Any one of you would like to volunteer? Come to the mike. Let me analyze your life and give you the right way of enriching.

Swamiji: Let us see. What are the identities which put together, make you who you are?

Devotee: Daughter, mother, wife, daughter-in- law, friend, teacher, student, devotee, disciple, entrepreneur... that's all.

Swamiji: Now, I will take her example and tell you. See, if your personality is one hundred percent, each one of these identities has some percentage in your personality. Maybe, the identity that you are a daughter occupies twenty percent; the identity that you are a wife occupies twenty to thirty percent; the identity that you are a disciple may occupy some twenty to thirty percent and the identity that you are a teacher may occupy ten percent. These different identities occupy certain percentages of your being. Am I right?

So now, your identity as a daughter can get fulfilled only if your father is enriched! Life can happen to you in the ultimate form as a daughter, only if your father is enriched. Life can happen to you completely as a wife, only if your husband is enriched. So if your personality is one hundred percent, each person has a share. Only if each person involved in your personality, in your relationships, with whom life is happening to you, only if all of them are enriched, will your life be complete and enriched.

Do not think that if you only enrich yourself, you will experience completion and fulfillment in life. No! Enriching others is a basic necessity of your life, for experiencing fulfillment. You can never be complete or fulfilled if all the people who are involved in your life are not complete or fulfilled. Only when they are all enriched with these four principles, you will experience enrichment with these four principles. When you enrich those with whom life is happening to you, only then will life be complete and enriched for you. Enriching others making others life alive!

Swami Vivekananda says beautifully, when he defines the ideal for his organization, ‘atmano mokshaartham jagat hitaaya cha’ - for the sake of the world’s well-being and for the sake of one’s own liberation. Please listen! He is not just saying ‘for one’s own liberation’; he says, ‘for the sake of the well-being of the world also – ‘jagat hitaaya cha’.

Again and again, seekers have this problem, ‘Why should I enrich others’ life?’ This is one of the biggest problems we have. ‘I should live, I understand that, but why I should bother about others? After all, the world is an illusion!’ You can realize the truth that the world is an illusion only when you are in completion; only when the poorna is experienced! poornamadah poornamidam - only out of poorna, is poorna experienced! Only out of completion does completion happen. Listen, only when you enrich others are you enriched! I can tell you one thing from my experience. Only when you start teaching others do you realize the truth completely.

There is a proverb in Sanskrit: ‘When you listen to the truth from the master, you only understand twenty five percent. When you clarify your doubts, you understand fifty percent. When you discuss among your friends, you understand seventy five percent. Only when you start teaching and sharing with others do you understand one hundred percent!

Vivekananda says that unless you enrich those with whom life is happening to you, you can never experience fulfillment. Especially the people who are involved in your life, like your employees, boss, father, mother, whoever is involved in your life. If they are not radiating these principles, you are not going to be experiencing fulfillment, you are not going to be experiencing the truth, you are not going to be experiencing completion, enriching does not happen to you. Unless you enrich others, you will never be complete, because life is happening to you outside you!

Please listen, only consciousness is happening to you inside; life itself is happening to you outside. Because consciousness is inside, you think that life happens to you inside. The source may be inside, but the happening is outside!

Enriching is taking responsibility with integrity and authenticity, that you are committed to continuously enriching yourself and enriching others. Not giving upon you and people - this is the moola mantra. Not giving up on you and people! I tell you, if you give up on others without enriching them, you will give up on yourself. You will give up on yourself! If you don't have the patience to continuously enrich others, without giving up on them, you will NOT have the patience to enrich you without giving up on you!

When you give up on you, what happens to you physically is disease, what happens to you mentally is depression, and what happens to you consciously is bondage! When you give up on yourself physically, your health will be broken. When you give up on yourself mentally, you will fall into depression. When you give up on yourself spiritually, you will fall into bondage. When you don't give up on yourself, you build the yogic body, Vedic mind and enlightened consciousness. When you don't give up on others, you also create the same for others. I tell you, if you have the pattern of giving up on others, you will give up on you. Each person that you have not given up on in your life is one extra pair of hands that you have Each person you gave up on in your life is one broken hand!

Listen! Enriching happens to you only when you are also enriching others. Don't give up on others. If you give up on you, you fall into depression. If you give up on others, you fall into loneliness. Don't give up on you and don't give up on others. This is the essence of what I wanted to share with you all today.

From tomorrow, I will continue to expand on how to create a beautiful relationship with these four principles and how to apply these four principles and create fulfillment in the areas of health, wealth, life - in every line!

Please listen! Expansion in your consciousness happens only when enriching happens to the people around you. Without enriching others, completion and fulfillment will never be experienced inside you, however much you may try. With this understanding, even the business you do will be a great fulfillment. Until you experience fulfillment in others who are living around you, your inner space can never settle in completion.

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

With integrity, you will experience the relationship with yourself, for the first time. Until you align yourself to integrity, even you do not know what you really want in your life! Until you align yourself to integrity, even you do not know what you want in your life. You want something and you are doing something else!
