RECLAIM YOUR POWERFUL INNER SPACE!🔗

In Sanskrit, we have a beautiful word called 'chidaakaasha'. chidaakaasha is the space which you call as your consciousness. Another beautiful word

I want to insist on this one idea. Ramana Maharshi says, 'We are all soul, consciousness.' Shankara says, 'The whole world is consciousness, there is nothing other than consciousness, brahma satyam, jagat mithya.' George Gurdjieff says, 'You don't have a soul, you have to earn it!'

All three of them are right! Please understand, all three of them are right! Until you experience it, it is good to think that you don't have it. Otherwise, because you think you have it, you do not put any of your energy to experience it. When I drive around the city, I see people unconsciously walking.

Please understand, I want to give you the exact glimpse of how an enlightened being sees the world. When I drive around, I literally get frightened! Because I see that everyone is walking and driving in a deep sleep! Accidents are not news to be reported; it is the non-accidents that are news to be reported!

Listen, what you experience as you and you looking at the world through the eye - between these two actions, there are one-hundred layers! So, the chidambara, chidaakaasha, the individual consciousness is not seeing! Even this morning, I was driving to come to this venue. And I saw that by the time it reaches the eyes to see and process the fact, millions of obstacles, bumps, highways, sign-boards, exits, ‘take-diversion’, ‘construction ahead’, don't go in that road, barricades! I didn’t want to stay in that same space continuously; I just closed the eyes and shut myself down. Because, when I looked around, I saw that my driver is also in the same space and driving!

My only request is this - just give me your listening. Don’t judge that I am talking something impractical. Don’t judge that I am talking something philosophical. I am not talking any philosophy. I am not even interested in inspiring you to do something. My morning satsangs are nothing but my bathroom songs! That is the truth! When you are in a relaxed, joyful mood, when you take bath, out of your joy you hum some tunes which are there in your inner space for last few days. Just like that, whatever is there in my inner space for

the last few days, I come and hum that tune, sing that song!

Don’t have that seriousness that I am giving you some philosophy. Don’t even feel that I am here to enlighten you. Then you will become too serious and you will have too many concerns. ‘If I become enlightened what will happen to my job? What will happen to my wife!’ And you have your own weird ideas about enlightenment! Nothing, just give me your listening, as a sweet song. Suppose you are staying with your friend and if that guy is singing in the bathroom, you will have the curiosity to put your ears to see what this guy is up to? What is he doing? What song is he singing? How with the simple curiosity you will try to listen, give me that listening and I commit with you, I will transmit my chidambara to you!

Your simple listening is enough for me to transmit my chidambara, chidaakaasha to you! Life is nothing but expanding the space of what you feel as you. That’s all! Nothing else, that’s all!

Creating the chidambara, the right inner consciousness, the right inner space, is not a big sadhana, spiritual practice. It is not some big achievement. Just stop believing that it is impossible. Stop identifying with how you achieve something in your life. For example, you first find a job; and then you find methods to impress your boss; then you get your promotion; then you conduct your meetings and then you make Powerpoint presentations, impress people, get higher promotions, have the money you want and you continue to save the money, buy what you want. You strongly believe that everything can be achieved only by this math. Just give yourself a break from this math! That’s all I am requesting you.

You do not need anything, any practice other than expanding what you feel as you. If you have a headache, decide that you are responsible for it. Then you will simply expand and understand that you are residing in your head. If you think that the headache is a suffering and it came for various reasons, you give up your ownership on that space and that space is now declared as a conflict zone.

Please understand, it is just like the neighboring countries' incursion into your country! They come into your border, put some tents and then declare that as a conflict zone! After they declare that as a conflict zone, they take two strategic points and say, 'Alright you give up ownership over these two points, we will give all the other points back to you!' Negotiate! Finally, they get those two points and give up the other points. We think we won! We won! And we come and give a big press meet and news that we won! Boost ourselves! But actually what happened? We lost two points, two strategic points which will be very useful for them if there is a war!

maya works in exactly the same way! You may have a headache, some agitation, a slight stomach pain, maybe a little pain in the calf muscles, the moment you accept all that as a disturbance by external reasons, over! Your chidambara, your chidaakaasha has shrunk now. Now that zone is already declared as a conflict zone. Now it is a conflict zone. Now maya can negotiate with you. 'Alright, you

don't disturb me in this area, I won't disturb you in that area!’ This negotiation literally goes on. Your authenticity is your ambassador on who is negotiating on your behalf.

Please understand, maya will say, ‘Alright, don't unnecessarily try to show that you are a big guy! You are under me. I will relieve you from the headache. But just be normal. Don't try to be extraordinary. Don't try to go on believing these foolish things that this Nithyananda is telling you: “You are extraordinary! You are God!” No! You are under me!’

Then you settle down. ‘Okay, what can be done? Let me at least be out of the disease.’ You settle down and now you feel you are healed. You come out and tell, ‘See I became alright! I became alright!’ But in the inner space you are already compromised! Please understand, the incursion is a direct, straight, right example. maya is continuously making incursions into you. Your inauthenticity is such that you go on allowing maya to win, but you go on bragging that you are winning! If you allow more and more zones to be declared as conflict zones, more and more destruction starts happening in your life.

Today, do this as a home-work. Sit and pen down all the areas that are already taken away by maya. For example, 4.30am to 6am in the morning is brahma muhurta. If you can't get up in the morning and do your yoga, or your kriya and do your spiritual practice, be very clear, that part is already claimed by maya; the border boundary is gone to maya! It is not any more in your chidambara! It is not any more your chidambara! It means that your territory is gone! Now, maya will be also make the incursion into your satsang time!

Everywhere, everywhere, it is the fight between you and maya - in your health, in your relationships, in your attitudes, in your patterns, everywhere! maya knows if she makes you sleep for one more hour, you will not wage an all-out war on maya. They know that if they just do a little incursion in the border, India will not go for an all-out war. Wherever you allow the incursion of maya, you lose your chidaakaasha.

Life is all about reclaiming your chidaakaasha. Just see, how your border shrinks wherever inauthenticity is allowed allowing incursions. I can see that many human beings are doing vanavaasa! Just like the Pandavas were completely kicked out of their kingdom, your ownership, your space is not there in your body. You are kicked out! You are there in vanavaasa. Your body is living. It is being used by maya - your inauthenticity! When maya is using your body, you don't even know what you do, why you do, what time you do, why you are living, why you are making money, why you have married, why you are having kids, why you are studying and exactly what is going to happen? Nothing! It is just there! It is just there! It is just there!

You don't need any spiritual practice! You don't need any spiritual activity! You don't even need learning! I tell you, you don't even need the four tattvas! I go to that extreme! If you just reclaim your possession - that which belongs to you, your chidambara, your chidaakaasha; that is enough! When you have a headache, if you feel powerless in front

of your headache, you have already given up your head to maya! It is no more in your inner space! It is no more your border! It is no more your chidaakaasha! It is no more your chidaakaasha! If you feel anger, violence, vengeance, lust or fear is suddenly rising in you and making you do some actions for which you repent later, be very clear, when those emotions have overpowered you, when they were ruling you and making you do some actions, you have gone to vanavaasa!

That is all I am saying. What is your body? What is your mind? What is your emotion? Powerfully reclaim it! Don't come back to me like a beggar with a powerless mood, 'How can I have my own mind under my control, can you tell me?' Once you are married, you don't go around and ask, 'How can I have kids?' You are a man! You know it! Once you are initiated, you don't go around and ask, 'How can I reclaim my mind to me? How can I reclaim my body to me?' It is simple decision! Sometimes, I can't understand when people ask me, 'How can I reclaim my mind?' Then why are you having it? 'How can I reclaim my body?' Then why are you having it? It is a simple decision!

Please understand, it is a very simple decision! No, even though you are not ready to listen I am not going to be bored of repeating the same thing! Let me see whether you get bored of non-executing my teaching or I get bored by continuously repeating. It is a simple, aggressive decision!

You don't need any other spiritual practice other than aggressively reclaiming your boundary. Tell yourself, 'My body! My head! There won't be any headache! It is mine! I will be the owner! It will be under my control! My inner space, I will be the owner! There will not be any confusion or worry or low mood! My inner space, I will be the owner! There will not be any incursions or interference!'

Weakness is the death which you give yourself. Nobody can save you. Vivekananda is right when he says, ‘Nobody can save a person filled with weakness!’ Arre! You don’t need to swim and save yourself! If I come in the ship and throw the rope, you can at least hold the rope so that I can lift you! If you don’t have the power even for that, then nobody can save you!

Aggressive reclaiming of your inner space is enough! Nothing else is required! Don’t be mesmerized by ideas like - you are old, you allowed your wrong patterns into your body for a long time, you have been weak for ages, years! No!

When you are a man, you just know what to do with your life. When you are a living being, you just know how to reclaim your body and mind. Reclaiming your inner space to yourself is what I call authenticity! The decision to reclaim is integrity. Reclaiming is authenticity. After reclaiming, using it for your life’s mission is responsibility. And enriching, helping other beings to do the same is enriching. It is all about reclaiming your inner space!

The areas where you feel any kind of powerlessness in your inner space are the areas where you have allowed the incursion to happen. In advaitic tradition, there is a beautiful book called swaaraajya siddhi. - which means, ‘reclaiming your own kingdom’. I tell you, life is all about swaaraajya siddhi – reclaiming your kingdom! It is simply possible, by authenticity! Every day, go on deciding that you are going to reclaim more inner space of your life, more space of your life today. For example, after working eight hours, if you are tired by 5pm, you are allowing the maya inside. Decide, ‘I will reclaim two more hours of my space to me. I will not allow tiredness until 7pm.’ After a week, then decide, ‘I am not going to allow tiredness until 9pm.’ Reclaim your time, your mind, your inner space, your body to you. What you feel as you stands as you!

I continuously promote body-building and support people doing yoga or anything related to body-building; whether it is running or gymming or exercising or yoga. I support anything related to body-building, because you reclaim your space, your power over your body, your say over your body! Just like body-building, practicing these principles is ‘mind-building’. Reclaiming your body and mind is ‘conscious-building’. Build your inner space. Build your chidambara. Build your chidaakaasha. You will see, Mahadeva will be blissfully dancing! If you look, you will see, his face is your face! You are dancing there! There is no separate Mahadeva! It is you dancing! Reclaim your chidambara. You will see Mahadeva dancing in chidambara! This is the secret of chidambara – chidambara rahasya!

In Tamil Nadu, there is the Chidambara temple. This is the chidhambara rahasya! Reclaim your body and mind by integrity, authenticity, responsibility, enriching and aggressiveness! When you reclaim your body to your life, your mind to your life, be aggressive! Powerlessness cannot help you reclaim your chidambara. Weakness cannot help you to reclaim your chidambara. Be aggressive when you reclaim your chidambara!

See, if you want you can raise your right hand. If you want, you can smoke. If you want, you can eat. This is normal power for you. In the same way, only when I create the civilization of human-beings, with what you call as 'miracle powers', living all that as a normal power, only then will I rest! My mission is to create human-beings living extraordinary powers as normal powers, as a normal lifestyle! You don't claim raising your hand as a miracle, because everyone can do it. At least, majority can do it. In the same way, I will make sure that majority of the humanity has their body, mind, time and their inner space under them; they own their inner space under them!

I tell you; your inner space is not an individual, isolated, island, as you think. All of us are connected in the inner space. So, for anything you do in your chidambara, the whole world supports you. That supports the whole world. Anything is done in chidambara, the cosmos makes it as reality. The world makes it as reality. The cosmos says tathaasthu – So be it! Even if you experience a little bit of the powers of chidambara, you will not have the greed for perverted powers like political power, social power, power which you feel by abusing others, power which you feel by ruling over others. No! All these are the perverted powers. Power perversions! I tell you, if you experience even little bit of your chidaakaasha powers, the powers of your chidaakaasha, you will simply be free from the greed for power!

One of my sannyasi asked me the other day, ‘Swamiji, we people who live around you, we don’t feel that you are such a powerful person. We only feel that you are a relaxed child or kid playing around in a relaxed way. That is the way we feel when we are around you, based on your vibes or words, behavior, actions, lifestyle.’

I told him, ‘Not only you, but even I feel like that!’ This is because I have tasted my chidaakaasha, I do not have the greed for perverted powers. So, even if those powers are lying around me, I am neither excited by it nor inspired by it, nor do I even feel like tasting it. If you enjoy beautiful food in your kitchen, you will not feel like eating or drinking from the drainage outside your house. When you don’t have anything, you are really thirsty or you are about to die; then nothing can be done. Only then will you feel, ‘Alright, at least let me drink the drainage water!’ If you have good food, beautiful food, nice food in your kitchen, why will you go and drink the drainage water?

Power perversion is drainage water! Perverted powers are drainage water! I tell you, people who are greedy for power just need only one thing - knowledge of their inner space and the simple decision to reclaim their inner space. If they can just cure their headache - if they experience that much of their inner space and the power of their inner space, their greed for power will disappear. They will stop giving headache to others! But I am telling you the truth! That is why, in India, people who are going to become power-centers are first trained to experience the power of their inner space.

If you see the life of Shivaji, if you read authentically, you will see there is no perverted power hunger in Shivaji. That is why Aurangzeb felt so powerless just by remembering Shivaji! Shivaji was so powerful even in front of the whole Moghul Kingdom! As a single man, Shivaji protected the whole South India and South Indian temples! Nobody was able to cross him and come to South India! Whenever I see the temple in my native place, Arunachala, that temple is so beautiful, you will not see a single damage! Whenever I see that temple, I feel grateful to Shivaji. His inner space was so powerful, he reclaimed his inner space! That is why he was not hungry towards perverted powers.

The essence of today's satsang is this. Be aggressive and reclaim your space, your possibility in time, mind, body and your responsibilities. Whatever is yours, just reclaim them. Let your space be yours. Let your space be yours! Let nobody else, no other force, nothing else have incursion over it. If you are a man, you will not allow somebody else to interfere in your life. If you are a living being, do not allow some other patterns, somebody else to get into your inner space. 'Reclaiming Your Space' is the essence of today's satsang!

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!

Only with completion do you become one integrated being, all your inner space, body, mind - everything comes under your contro. When you do completion now, don't think that only your future will be in completion and complete. No! Even your past gets altered! Completion is the only method where you can even alter your past!
