I welcome you all with my love and respects. I will enter into satsang. Today’s subject for nithya satsang is this - ‘practicing the principles, layer by layer!’

Listen! An ordinary man can start integrity. Just through integrity, if he practices it layer by layer, layer by layer and goes deeper and deeper, just by integrity he will become enlightened! He will become enlightened! Listen! Just by integrity, practicing integrity layer by layer , he will become enlightened!

In the same way, an ordinary man can start practicing responsibility as a simple vow to be successful in his life, to be more productive, to be more inspiring, and end up being the Lord of the Universe. Just by taking responsibility; he can become Mahadeva himself!

Please understand, these principles lead you to higher and higher planes, even if you start in a very simple way. When you are strong and stable in living them, they lead you to the higher and higher planes.

If you see in our meditation programs, in our first level one-day program - the kalpataru program, even in one day, we teach the same four tattvas. In the morning nithya satsang, I speak only on four tattvas every day. In our two-day meditation program - nithya dhyaan (NDY), we speak on the four tattvas. In our four-day meditation program - nithya kriya (NKY), we speak only on the four tattvas. Then again, in the two-day, Healer’s Initiation program, we speak only on the four tattvas. And again in our two-day, eN-Relationship program, we speak only on the four tattvas. Even in our ten-day Inner Awakening Level-1 program, we will speak only on the four tattvas. And finally, in our twenty-one-day Inner Awakening (Level-2) program, we speak only on the four tattvas!

Just by practicing
deeper and deeper
layers of integrity,
you can become
enlightened.

Then, is it all the same? No! It is neither the same nor is it different! Understand, it is neither the same nor different! It means that you are being guided deeper and deeper, layer by layer, into the same tattvas!

Understand, I speak on the tattvas, from morning satsang to Inner Awakening. Even after Inner Awakening, we also continue to have many group gatherings. And in everything - in enriching sessions, in everything, we only speak about the four tattvas, it is only about the four tattvas.

Then can you say 'Oh, I attend the morning satsang every day. I understand the four tattvas. Why do I need to go to Inner Awakening?' Can you say that? No! It is only after you come to Inner Awakening that you will understand it!

It is like somebody saying, 'After all, I have eyes! I can see what is there in the star, what is there in the sky. Why do I need a telescope, a satellite?' Can this be right understanding? Only when you get a telescope, and telescopes established in satellites, cameras established in satellites, only when you are able to do that research, you will understand that seeing the stars with bare eyes is totally different, and seeing them with a telescope is totally different!

The morning satsang is like seeing the four tattvas with bare eyes. The Inner Awakening program is like seeing the tattvas through the highest, best telescope, satellite-fixed telescope, satellite-mounted telescope!

Somebody asked me yesterday, one of my swaminis, 'What is the difference between satsang and Inner Awakening? People are asking. In satsang also Swamiji talks about the same four tattvas so beautifully. That is enough!'

As I said, I speak on the four tattvas, true! But are you listening? Are you experiencing it? So, Inner Awakening is to make you experience it! It is to make you experience it!

There is a big difference between seeing the stars with the bare eyes, especially in the day time. Sometime you look at the stars in the day time and you think you are seeing them. satsang is like seeing the stars in the day time. kalpataru is trying to see the stars during twilight, evening. NDY is seeing the stars in the night time. NKY is seeing the stars using the home-made telescope. Inner Awakening-1 is seeing the stars using the telescope. Inner Awakening itself is seeing the stars using the telescope mounted on satellite. It means that you understand layer by layer by layer, you internalize, you imbibe.

How many of you, after finding the root-pattern, feel, 'Oh, God! I should share this knowledge of finding root-pattern and coming out of suffering with the whole world?' (People raise their hands). I authorize all of you! Go around and help people! Go around and help people! Even if they don't find the root-pattern, if you can, inspire them, they should find their root-pattern and complete it, only then they will start the life; that is a great service! I bless you all and authorize you all. This knowledge is not my copyright. Go around. Talk to your watchman. Talk to your newspaper boy. Talk to your boss. The newspaper boy may get it very easily than your boss! Talk to all your customers, clients, and employees. Talk to everyone. Make them understand that only when they find their root-thought-pattern and complete, their life starts.

How many of you feel, 'Only now after the

Only when you
find your root
thought pattern
and complete it,
your life starts.

completion of the root-pattern, is my life is starting?’ (People raise their hands). That’s the truth! That’s the truth! Don’t wait for them to come to the Inner Awakening. You help them in whatever way you can. When they come here, I will take care of them. I will raise them to the next level. You help in whatever way you can.

These four tattvas should become basic lessons in schools and colleges. Then you will not see kids becoming mad before examination, and committing suicide after the examination results come out. Every day, in the last few days, in Tamil Nadu, in every district, kids are committing suicide! And it is not even because they failed, but because they scored less marks! Can you see the madness? The education system has become terrorism. More people are getting killed because of this education method than through the terrorism!

tell you, unless you teach these four tattvas and help people find the root-pattern and completing from the young age, you are not going to remove terrorism from life and from education. You are not going to remove terrorism from life and from education!

Human beings need to understand - what are we doing with our next generation? Where are we leading our next generation? These four tattvas should become the basic lesson! Basic lesson! It can make Man, a real Man!

Understand, if integrity becomes part of people, first thing is that the country will be relieved from corruption and swindling. Emptying the country will be eliminated! First of all, the conversion will stop. Human beings will evolve as divine beings. Just see what a huge impact we will be able to create on human beings, if we can help them to find their root-pattern and complete with it! The root-pattern is the root cause of all suffering. When you start practicing these four principles, of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching with enlightenment, only then does you life start.

When you practice it more and more intensely, when you begin to practice integrity, it will start like this - 'you will not tell lies, you will be on time, you will be punctual.' But it will end up as thoughtless space and 'vak-siddhi'. 'Thoughtless space' means enlightenment! 'vak-siddhi' means, whatever you utter will become reality.

Understand, integrity starts as not telling lies and being punctual; and ends as power to make any words you utter into reality and enlightenment itself!

In the same way, authenticity, starts as being straightforward, but ends as being 'possible', anything is possible for you. Whatever you read in stories is simply possible for you as life. You read in stories that the yogis lived without food; it is possible for you now, for people who are doing 'nirahara samyama'! I know there are some people who just live on water; nothing else! Very healthy, hefty, not losing weight! Understand, when you start authenticity, it will be in one level. When you start practicing it intensely, you will reach a totally different level.

When you start
practicing enrich-
ing, it may start
with charity, but
it will end up as
Enlightenment.

In the same way, when you start practicing responsibility, it may be like this - you will become more responsible in your office and in your house. But it ends up as being the leader of the universe, responsible for the whole cosmos, with the ability to do anything with the cosmos, like ishvaratva!

When you start practicing enriching, it may start with charity. You may enrich somebody with one rupee or one meal or one set of dress. But it will end up as Enlightenment!

So practicing these four tattvas takes you to different-different levels. It takes you to a different-different space.

Listen! Only by living intensely will the tattvas become satyas in you. Live! Live! Live! Live the tattvas intensely! Bring them into your life layer by layer, layer by layer. Your body will listen to you. Your mind will listen to you. The world will listen to you. The universe will listen to you. Humanity will listen to you. You will be enriching the world and the world will be enriching you. You will be enriching the universe and the universe will be enriching you.

Even a common man can start practicing these tattvas, at his own level. He will understand integrity as not lying and being punctual; authenticity as being honest and straightforward; responsibility as being responsible for his job and the money he receives and enriching as charity. That is the way a common man will understand it. But start practicing, even if it is in that way. Start practicing!

I tell you, you will then absorb the tattvas layer by layer and the tattvas will absorb you. Then integrity will lead you more and more to the space of peace, and every word you utter will become reality. Responsibility will lead you more and more to a powerful space, authenticity will lead you more and more to the space of possibility. Everything, everything is possible! Possible! Possible! You will be able to do everything! Possible!

Understand, enriching may start as charity; but it will end up as enlightenment itself, because you will be enriching by pouring your very life, the whole life, the whole world. When you renounce everything else other than enriching, you are in the enlightened space. You are in the space of enlightenment.

You can see the lives of great Masters like Basavanna, Jnanasambandhar, Ramanuja, Bhagawan Swaminarayan., there is nothing for their own! Ramanuja lived more than a hundred years but had nothing for himself! He gave everything to society. Even after death, he mummified his body. That body is still sitting and enriching people! Gnanasambandhar - his presence is still enriching the world! Basavanna, Gnanasambandhar, Ramanuja, Bhagawan Swaminarayan - they all taught these four principles, from the very preliminary, primary level to the ultimate enlightenment level!

Only when a principle is able to reach you where you are and make you reach where you need to be, it can be a successful principle. The four tattvas have that quality. They can reach you wherever you are

The four tattvas
reach you where
you are and make
you reach where
you need to be.

and they can make you reach where you need to be. From where you are to where you need to be! These principles are independently intelligent. All you need to do is bring them into your life, bring them into your life sincerely, as sincerely as possible and as authentically as possible. I can see - every time when people practice these four principles, their kundalini is immediately awakened, their whole inner space is ready for energy darshan, they are ready for spiritual experiences and spiritual powers.

After coming to the program for the first time, how many of you experienced levitation and kundalini awakening? Raise your hand. (People raise their hands). It is the power of the tattvas, the power of the principles! Start thinking through dhamma, through these four principles of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. You will see that you will live in your peak!s

See, what do we do in nirahara samyama? Nothing! Simple, with the power of our integrity and authenticity, we declare that this body should produce the energy, directly from space! Over! For days you don't eat, but you are not tired! Energy is directly produced from space! How many of you feel energetic with nirahara samyama and The samyama? Come on! You are working twice as much as your regular routine! Am I right? You wake up in the morning at at-least 4:30 a.m, and you are up till 11pm. Am I right? With just four to five hours of sleep, you do heavy physical and mental work the whole day! Physical yoga and mental work of dhamma! No food, no sleep, but you are alive and energetic! How many of you found out this miracle? (People raise their hands). That is the power of integrity and authenticity!

Your body starts producing the food directly from space. Your body starts producing the energy directly from space.

And finding your root-pattern is not an easy joke. It's not that you don't spend any energy at all in finding your root-pattern. You go through so much of emotional turmoil and ups and downs! Usually when you go through emotional turmoil, your body will become tired, you burn more calories, you work out more! But even after going through this tough emotional turmoils, your feel powerful, full of energy with no tiredness! How many of you feel this? (People raise their hands). Relax! It is because of the power of your integrity and authenticity! Integrity authenticity and responsibility!

Understand, it is the power of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching! You need to know the power of integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching. It transforms your very body, mind, emotions, and cognition itself!

Understand, Poosalaar Naayanaar is a great saint from Tamil Nadu. What will be the power of his integrity and authenticity! Shiva himself wanted to reside in the temple that he built in his heart. And He (Lord Shiva) told the king, 'His (Poosalaar Naayanaar's) temple is much greater than the stone temple that you (the king) built!' Then what should be the power of integrity and authenticity of Poosalaar Naayanaar? It is the space of completion that he would have been living, the space of enlightenment that he was in!

The space you
carry is the capi-
tal for your life.

The space you carry is much more important! That is the capital for your life. Listen! The space you carry is the capital for your life. Even with so much of heavy work, you continue to be energetic, because of the power of your declaration.

So you should know that the moment you understand the power of integrity and authenticity, you will fall in love with dhamma! It is not falling in love; rising in love with dharma! Start at whatever level you know, you understand about dharma. Don't think, 'I am only listening to satsang through TV! I will go and attend the Inner Awakening; then I will start practicing these four tattvas.' No! Start practicing wherever you are, whatever little you understand.

If there is an obstacle, it is because of root-patterns. Break it. Complete it. That's all! Anything is possible! When you are in the space of anything is possible, you understand that you are the favourite child of the cosmos –'Brahmanyam Bahuputratham'. I am the favourite child of the Universe!

So the essence of today's satsang is this: Start the four principles wherever you are, from that level and don't stop there. Go on intensifying it. Let your thinking become tattwamaya! Let the thinking itself become through these four tattvas. Let your thinking become based on these four principles, the tattvas will become satya. You will reach the highest possibility and enlightenment!

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