“Anahata word also means, anahata means which is not created.”

Anahata word also means, anahata means which is not created. The anahata dwani, ahata means which is created, anahata means which is not created. When you get the experience of heart, you will listen a beautiful sound which is not created. The anahata dwani it is called. So in that anahata dwani they named it anahata. But there is no direct connection in that chakra. The name is quite ........... So anahata, this chakra is something to do with love, sentiments, associated with emotions. This chakra gets locked when you expect the attention of the others. If you live for the attention of the others, this chakra gets locked. When you start showing the unselfish love this chakra opens. There is a, just listen, actually if you listen clearly with a open heart that will be more than enough. That will directly go, I will be right in your heart. There is no need, one thing if you try to recollect, if you recollect please be very clear you have heard intellectual knowledge. If you are not able to recollect if something happens in your life, if you feel so satisfied, I have learnt something beautiful things, if you feel that you are happy when you leave the class, you have heard something beautiful which will help you to transform your life that will be more than enough. Then you will see these ideas have entered into you unconscious. That is why this time I did not give that homework. Last class in tamil nadu class I used to tell them to summarize the whole class. Whomsoever next day I will ask them where is the home work, there will be some people who will beautifully summarize and bring it to me. I will tell them, you will not be useful, you will not be use for this class, you will not have any use from this class. You will not have any ............ from this class. They will be wonderstruck what is this Swamiji I have written so beautifully you are telling me I will not be use for this class. Yes, because you listened with your head, you have not listened with your heart. If you listened with your heart, if you listened with your being, you will not be able to repeat, you will not be able to recollect. You will only be able to only remember. Please be very clear there is a big difference between these three - recollect, repeat, remember. The other two are intellectual, remembrance is something being level, we will remember the essence what I said, you will be remembering me, you will be remembering my being, not a single word. If you follow, if you leave, if you memorise these words they are not going to help you for long. Either today or tomorrow they have to be forgotten, they will be forgotten. But if you remember, if carry the energy, if you carry me in your being that will be continuously, permanently transform your life. There is no need to remember at all, just alone, just sit in a relaxed way as if you are chatting with your friend and chat, that’s what I gave the instruction first day itself. Just participate, go on making some comments, listen with a life, listen with life. Just if you listen in that way, the right listening will happen. I will be working, there is no need to teach you, it won’t work out, it is not some project I am giving to you to go and work out. It is some deep experiences I am sharing with you. If you know that if I touch fire I will get burnt, will you, you have to practice that feat or what. If you know this clearly, do you tell that yes now I have got the truth, now I will practice this for ten days then only I will come to the conclusion that if I touch the fire I will get burnt. Then after that I will stop touching, can you say that? If the things are clear you will be directly experiencing it, truth is there. Only when you listen from a direct person you don’t need any practice, that is enough, the shravana is enough. The chandogya upanisand beautifully says, the master is telling his disciple swtekaketu, tatvamasi swetaketu tatvamasi, tatvamasi swetaketu tatvamasi. Nine times he says that tatvamasi - you are that, the listening is enough, yes, he has got the experience, it can spiritually awaken. It’s again a spiritual experience just by listening. There is no need to undergo any practice, listening is more than enough. The shravana, the right shravana, the right listening will be more than enough; there is no need for anything else. So the heart, you will automatically practice, there is no need, that is what I mean. That’s not that you will not go and practice meditation, you will go and practice meditation, you will go and practice, you will go and practice. But you will not be forcing yourself to practice, just it will be happened. Whatever you do is not worth doing, whatever happens is only allowed, only allow it; if it happens in your life then only it is allowed, it is worth, it is worthy. If you have to do it is not worthy at all. So just listen with a open heart, open being, I will trash your intellect. When you are trashed intellectually you will fall into abyss of the heart, I will be there holding you. The energy with which I am delivering these words, the authenticity with which I am giving you these words, that energy will be holding you. That will be more than enough (7:32) there is no need, there is no other extra preparations, there is no other extra maps are needed to work out these things, it is more than enough. So now we will come to the anahata chakra, it is something to do with attention and love. This chakra gets locked when you expect the attention of others. You can all, you can all do one thing, tomorrow morning one day activity just you observe, what are all the doing, what are all the activities you are doing to get the good name from somebody, from others. If you note down, note, if you see and note down, you will find your whole twenty four hour is spent in signature campaign. You have written one big book, please I am a good father you are going and keeping it in front of your son, please sign it, in this. Almost all our activity will be based on this signature campaign only. We are continuously in signature campaign; we are trying to get as many signatures as possible to prove that I am good, as many good opinions as possible to prove that I am good. Vote bank, vote bank, I told it in a very duty way signature campaign. Just, I’m a good father, I’m a good mother, I’m a good son, I’m a good brother, we go to everybody and stand, please just sign it, please just sign it. He is standing with a big book please just you first sign it. So almost all our life if you see, we are signature campaign. Why do we bother about others opinion? Why do we just live on others opinion? Why do we bother so much about others opinions? Because you don’t know about yourself, you expect others opinion about you to know about yourself. You don’t know about yourself that is why you are always searching, seeking, expecting, wanting others opinion to know about yourself. Any signature, so without even expecting a signature you are ready to do that. Yes, they want those things you do then what is the final result end that he should tell that you are doing what he wants to do. He won’t say so even without that you are ready to do that? So you don’t bother? You don’t want him to be from you that at least he should say once in a while. Sometimes definitely only I say, that sometimes means, what is meaning of the word sometimes? Other times it doesn’t comes out, comes up, sometimes it comes up that is the thing. Am I right? You don’t think so; you think you are doing just for the sake of him, not for the sake of yourself, ah definitely. Definitely you are very clear that you are doing only for his sake, not you don’t want the opinion that you are a good father, good mother or good wife from him. The word duty is a ugly word, actually the word duty comes from this idea only. If you don’t do it what will happen? You may not be having the good opinion, just to keep the good opinion only the word duty comes. The word duty comes in between us, in between our relationship just to keep the, just to maintain this good opinion. Of course that............ if the chakra opens that itself it happens, I will give the explanation what is selflessness, I will explain. First let me finish these things. Please don’t cheat yourselves, be very clear, just sit alone and diagnose yourself. All our thoughts, all our deeds, all our work, you will see in such a good opinion out of, from others.

(13:01) When you live for this way all our life we will be doing so many things just to get the good opinion of others. I think still now you have not, please you can raise the question one by one, what you want to tell. We are not expecting, you see, you see you do with love and affection this chakra is opened no problem. There are few people who do with love and affection but most of our life’s activities, many of the life doing, if you diagnose deeply you will see we are in search of the others opinion, we are in search. Ah, yes there are few people, ah yes that is what, so when you do with love and affection this chakra opens, you don’t feel tired, when you do with love and affection you never feel tired. There are many people who are asking me, Swamiji, there are many healers, the pranic healers, the reiki healers, they come to me and ask, Swamiji if we attend some ten to twelve patients per day we get drained, we don’t feel the energy is coming out, we are already enough, finished. We are not able to attend more than ten to twelve patients, but you are attending hundreds of patients, as many number as you want, you are simply ready. From where the energy comes? How do you get the energy? This is the answer. When you do it for the sake of love and affection, when you do it selflessly, when you allow it to happen, energy simply flows, you don’t feel tired. When you do it expecting the result, opinion, energy gets blocked. In the same way for women, if her mother’s house people come, she will be simply rounding and doing all the work and husband’s side people come, if the in-laws come what will be the result? Yes, yes of course if you feel like that then you are doing out of love and affection, then you won’t feel tired. Just I’m giving the example, if you do with love and affection you will not feel tired, whenever you don’t feel tired, be very clear you are not working for that signature campaign, you are not doing for others opinion. When you feel tired be very clear you are working with that expectation of result. When you expect the result, result never appears “Karmanye Vadhikaraste, Ma phaleshou kada chana” beautifully Gita says, when you expect half of your energy is gone. You are standing in a queue, please sign. So when you expect the opinion of others, it is, you are bound to end in a frustration. Do you think you can satisfy all the people, never, because you yourself is not satisfied. Unless you are deeply satisfied with your life how can you satisfy others? Unless you know about yourself how can you know about others and satisfy? It is impossible, just understand if I go on taking the note book and asking for signature campaign, I’ll be ending only in a frustration. When you understood this, half of the problem will be cleared, half of the problem will be solved, please be very clear. Why do we expect the opinion of others? We try to mirror ourselves because we don’t know out of self anything, we have no idea. Then what do we do? We try to live with the opinion of others. Now what we are, what do we know about ourselves? Just if you go on digging, who am I? You will come to the conclusions which society has given to you. Society has put a big label on you as they are putting on the parcel, if it has to go to a Erode, if you put one parcel service, it has to go to Erode they will put one big seal, big label “Erode”, in the same way the society has named you lawyer, society has put a big label “you are beautiful”, society has put a big label “you are a rich man.” These are the labels, they have collected all the labels and started telling, I am all these labels. But are you all these labels? No. You are the stuff which is inside the parcel. You are a being which is inside the parcel on whom all these labels are pasted and sometimes we feel this label is not good I like to go for some other label. You go to somebody else and ask for some other label. There are many people who are ready to give many awards “dharmas guy”, “jnanadevata”, there are so many people who are ready to give you awards, you pay ten thousand to some sabha they will immediately give you a big award. So we collect all the awards and keep it on the reception. All the receptions are filled with awards because we don’t know about our self. That is why when somebody comes we don’t entertain them much we simply turn them towards the awards, you see this is the award, this is the award, this is the photograph, this is the thing, whether they listen or not we don’t bother. (19:53) simply catch them, this is what happens na? So because we do not know about our self, because we do not know about our self, we just expect the opinion of others. There is a small tale, three brothers went to a bar and drank nicely, nicely means really nicely. The elder brother showed his superiority there also and filled himself and fallen. The other two brothers, actually all the three brothers are fishers, fishermen; they have finished their fishing and then came to the bar. Other two brothers were little less and we little alert and after sometime they were just trying to remember their job and slowly they started rowing their boats, sitting in the bar they just started rowing their boats. The two persons, two brothers are sitting both the sides and they are slowly rowing the, started rowing the boats and doing their duty. When a police constable came to the bar, he was in front of this two persons and gave one good kick, then these people became alert and told see what condition your elder brother is lying down, quickly take him out otherwise we will put you in jail, I’ll put you in prison. These two brothers came to little light and understood the question, oh how to take him out, then immediately they started rowing full fast, they started rowing more fast, they started rowing speedy, in a speedy way. So this is what we do in our life, when we don’t get some good opinion from others, we start doing something more to get some good opinion. But do you think this is a good solution? When you start rowing quickly what will be happened? How will that two brothers think that by the speedy boat rowing speedily if you row that the elder brother can be transported to some other place. In the same way we are thinking that if I get some good opinion from others, I’ll be more happy, No. Not only won’t be there, the base itself is not there, the basic understanding itself is wrong. How the two brothers have understood, what they have understood? The base is wrong, the same way our base is wrong. The way, in which we are working, searching to get the opinion of others is basically wrong. That is why we always feel frustrated entering depression. All our life enter depression and frustration because of this reason. We depend on others opinion, its 100% sure you are not going to be succeeding, you are not going to be successful. The man who gives opinion about your self doesn’t know about himself, how can he gauge on yourself. He doesn’t know about himself and he gauges you and you don’t know about yourself you gauge him. It’s a mutual understanding, so this is not the way. If you want this chakra to be opened, the way is unselfish love. So I’ll give you a small story to show the difference between attention and love, attention need and love, signature campaign and love.

(24:02) A great person who lived in Bharat Vajaspati Mishra, who wrote Bhrama sutra bhasya, bhrama sutra is a book, the greatest book, ever written, ever existed on humanity. The greatest book, the unabridged edition of world philosophies, an abridged edition of poet philosophy. From this book only all the philosophies originated, the book of books, bhrama sutra. The Vajaspathi Mishra has written commentary on that book, a beautiful commentary, much more developed version than Shankara, a beautiful commentary he has wrote. I’ll tell you a small incident from his life. When this Vajaspathi Mishra was in gurukulam, the guru was about to die. The guru told him you write commentary on bhrama sutra and then he gave, the guru gave his daughter in marriage to the Vajaspathi and the guru died. Vajaspathi started writing immediately after marriage, the commentary on Bhrama sutra. (25:28) continuously he’s writing, writing, writing, writing, writing, writing and writing, writing, writing. He’s continuously engaged in writing, of course we do not know whether it is happened............. or not but one thing is sure, the idea which is expressed in his story is beautiful, so you can listen this story. It’s what he’s contemplating, ok I’m remembering. Everyday he’ll find someone hand is just coming near his eye and lighting the lamp and keeping water for him, doing seva and keeping the paper, paper means that the palm leaves ready. He will be continuously writing and keeping, again he will remember the sutra and continuously writing. When he finished the bashya, he just looked up, raised his head and saw a old lady standing in front on him and asked that old lady, who are you? Who are you? Then she, he was about to write the last word to finish the book, who are you, she told, I’ll introduce me, myself afterwards, please you write that last word and finish. He told no, no no, just tell me who are you; she said I’m your wife, I’m your wife. Some thirty years back we got married, you took this work I did not disturb you. Just remember when you read five minutes newspaper in the morning hours, if she brings the coffee can you read your news paper. Drink the coffee first, it will get cold, afterwards you read the newspaper. Can you see TV for half an hour? Just remember the difference between love and attention is Vajaspathi Mishra says, he says to his wife, no you have don’t a big mistake you should have taken my attention, you should have reminded me, because we have lost our life. She told, no, my father wanted you to do it, you have done. This is a great life we have lived. I don’t need attention; I need your love that’s enough. I’ve served happy, then Vajaspathi Mishra, tears falling in his eyes, he says, now what I can do to you, the sacrifice which you have done to me, which you have don’t to this world. Only one thing I can do that I’ve not named this book, I will name this book on your name bahumati. He has named that book on her wife’s name bahumati, bahumati. Still now the best commentary written on the greatest book of the humanity is remembered in her name – bahumati. So in world philosophy, in western philosophers, there is only two sects, one is who accepts bahumati, who rejects bahumati, you understand. In world philosophy there is only two classifications, anybody philosophers, any philosophy. There is only two classification, who is accepting the bahumati bhasya, who is rejecting the bahumati bhasya, no other classification. Then you can understand but nobody can transcend bahumati bhasya, you have to be only under the bahumati bhasya. Such a big book has been created, such a big work has been created, such a big work has been done just out of dedication and love. Of course she has lost her life but what has happened, what has been given to the humanity, just remember. See what great gift has been given to humanity just by one life, if she would have been a normal wife what would have happened? A regular way of life, at the most they would have got five six children and then died. Who would have remembered her or him? There are thousand beings who have lived, who is remembering them? No body. But bahumati has become eternal just out of her selfless service. Now everybody remembers her, she has become a star. So this is the great difference between attention and love. Through love you can do anything, whatever is the product will be always there, great contribution to the humanity. So just remember when you go and snatch the news paper from your husband, just remember you also when you come to house if wife is seeing the TV, what will you be doing? Just bang the door. So remember what is mean by attention and what is mean by love
