“Now we’ll explore the 7th Chakra - Crown Chakra - Sahasrara - the 7th…”

Now we’ll explore the 7th Chakra - Crown Chakra - Sahasrara - the 7th gear. We have come to the 7th mechanism. Almost all the techniques are exactly as it is, only 1 or 2 the final touch has been given by Me; but no technique is completely designed by Me. Completely it is from the ancient traditions. In East, the Hindu religion have got different techniques for different chakras. For all…. for all the chakras Hinduism has got techniques. You see, the putting the whole thing into order is My job. I have tested with all these techniques. I have experimented with all these techniques. I have selected, which will directly give result. You see, you are the cross section of the modern society…..cross section of the modern society; you have all tasted at least one glimpse of spirituality. So...but the Eastern religion...all Eastern religion is designed for the people who leave everything and go for….go to forest. All the Western religions have been designed for the people who continuously work, but here is a cross section of the society. There are some techniques which is designed for the head people, there are some techniques which is designed for the heart people, there are some techniques which is designed for the different kind of….for a woman, for men, there are so many elements, I have worked with so many ways on so many chakras. I have crossed almost 3000 techniques. From 3000 techniques, I have decided, I have selected and coined this order. That is why….

It is not that before My enlightenment only I worked on this chakra. After My enlightenment, with a enlightened consciousness, I started segregating all the techniques and methods. With all that research, it took almost 9 months for Me to design this setup, to bring the whole thing to this pattern, crossing almost 5000 books. Still now I have the 5000 books. So, crossing all these techniques, from that I have selected the whole….. That is why it is directly giving the effect, the straight result. You see, none of you are prepared crowd. There are few people who are first time seeing Me. Yesterday only you have seen Me. None of you are prepared. You are all new to this….many of you may not even have heard something about spirituality. You are all entering….even if you have heard something about spirituality, this type of spirituality, I don’t think anybody will be exposed. People who are doing only research, they will be knowing even only the...even the names of these chakras; only they will only be knowing.

So, in new people exposed to top spirituality and directly getting experience - that is the speciality of this setup. So just to give this result only, it took lot of time, lot of tapas. Almost the life has to be dedicated. If you….if I say one or two glimpses, when I start working this techniques, 3 days continuously I sat in between the…..in the center of the fire and meditated. One Agni Paatra on head and one circle of fire. It is called Pancha Tapas. That one tapas and then from early morning to night along with the sunset - gazing the sun. There are many types of different types of techniques. After practicing everything, I have filtered it out and designed this system, which directly you all people can practice. The technique is designed in such way, where you all can participate, where you all can practice. If it is too complicated technique - first nobody will come, even if they come they will run away. But here almost I think I am able to manage to touch all. Hmmm.

(05:41) This chakra gets locked by asking more, more, more. This chakra gets opened by paying…..by paying gratitude. This chakra is locked by praying. Praying means begging. This chakra is opened by paying. Praying locks - paying opens. Paying the gratitude, Now let us enter into the idea of gratitude. There are 2 types of life….in tantra they put nicely vamachaar - dakshinachaar. There are many interpretation for this word, I’ll give you the new commentary. You make a big list of the things which you don’t have in this world. A big list. I think the list can never end. Can anybody say that list can end? No! A big list and make another one list which you can have. Start from the pen and the dress, specs, eyesight, the finger, start from this side. List out completely. Again this also will be infinite. Naturally, because you are having every breath. So list out completely this side, whatever you have. List out the things which you don’t have. Both is...both are infinite. This side also will go, go, go. This side also will go on. Both can...both can’t end. It is up to you to look at this side and be in sad that, “I want this, I want that, I want this, I don’t have this, I don’t have that”, or looking at this side being happy, “Oh, I have this, I have that, I have so much.” It is your choice whether to look right side or the wrong side but both are there. You have something, you don’t have something. They have something and we don’t have something. Both the list are infinite. It is up to us to decide whether to go for praying or paying. God has given both.

And same way religion is also classified in a 2 ways. One is continuously asking…. A small story…. Appu Swami once started praying to Venkatachalapathy. “Oh Prabhu, you should give me one crore in the lottery ticket. I’ll put 20 lakhs in Hundi. If you don’t believe me, deduct that 20 lakhs by yourself and give only 80 lakhs.” ☺ ☺

This is our religion. A continuously going for bargain. Bargaining with Balaji, bargaining with Murugan, bargaining with all the Gods - “Give me this, I’ll give you that or if you don’t give me I’ll throw away your photograph. I will not worship you.” Who is the loser? Na, nobody, God is not the loser - we.

Just like the lifestyle...2 lifestyle there are 2 religions - major religions. The praying religion, continuously asking, asking, asking. The paying religion, “Oh Prabhu, you have given me enough, I am full. Thank you. You have given me more, more than what for I am qualified. You have showered everything on me. Enough, my love, my gratitude, have it. This religion is called meditation religion. This is called prayer religion. Lifestyle and religion go hand in hand. If you are man of dissatisfaction…..can anybody say that this list can be satisfied by attaining. The things which you don’t have, can you have satisfaction, at any moment by having all those things?

There are 3 things - being, doing, having, in our life. Being means our personality, our Being. Doing...doing something. Having...to have something.

You are doing to achieve 10 lakhs, to have 10 lakhs. By the time you reach 8 lakhs, the 10 lakhs has become already 10 crore. The having point has gone. Gone ahead, so you are continuously doing. You are neither in the…..you neither attain the having or you enjoy the being. You don’t relax, you don’t enjoy your being. You are not settled. Continuously doing for having which can’t be had. But if you start living in your Being, the Being never keeps you in laziness or sorrow or depression. Being is such a joyful affair - doing will happen by itself with full of creativity. When doing happens, having also follows. With that being, doing, having, all the three you will be having. Here you will be missing all the three.

Simply continuously doing, doing, doing, but not having anything, what will you do? After some time naturally you will be depressed. You will become live dead, dull dead, dragging. When start your scooter on Monday morning to go to office, you will think when Saturday evening will come. Before kicking the scooter you will think, “When Saturday evening will come?” The life has become dull, dead, dragging mechanism. The seed/sip, the juice, is lost. By being if you start doing anything, if you start anything with celebration, with the mood of gratitude, with the mood of life, your whole life can become a real spiritual life.

How to do it? If you listen this technique, you will be wonderstruck - “Is it a technique of what?” I’ll tell you with a small story… then the technique. Please all of you be aware because this is the key which you are going to take with you from this class. This is the gist of the whole class. Once you should be a little more alert and aware, then only you will be able to understand. Once a disciple, he came to Master, “Oh Master, you are completely filled with bliss, radiating, from morning till night we are seeing, we don’t feel you are dull or depressed, tired. Continuously radiating the same joy, the same face, filled with Nithyananda. What is happening? How do you manage? Please give us also the technique how to do it?” Then Master says – As soon as I get up early in the morning, I ask myself, I call, “Today do you want to become happy or sad?” I call myself, “What you want today? Happiness or sorrow, bliss or sadness, bliss or pain - decide.” Naturally mind will decide, “I want bliss.” Then immediately he says, then immediately I will tell my mind – “then be blissful”; that’s all.

Who is going to stop you? In next 24 hour, I am not going to achieve anything big, whatever is my life only that way I am going to live, whatever is my intellect I am going to use, whatever God gives it is going to come to me. In this next 24 hour, I am not going to become Prime Minister. You are sure. Everyday morning when you get up, call yourself, with your own name. Many of you all the….all others call you by your name. You never use your name. Now is the time - call yourself. If you are a ‘Mukund’ - call, “Mukund, what do you want today? Bliss or pain - decide.” Naturally mind will ask Bliss! Then tell your mind, “Then be blissful”, that’s all.

If you rightly understand, if you understand all the key points, for next 24 hours you decide. Don’t decide for 2 days, don’t for decide for 2 days. You can never be happy for 2 days. You can be happy only for 1 day, because only today is in your hand. Yesterday is also not in your hand and tomorrow is also not in your hand. Only today is in your hand. Yesterday is check which is bounced. Tomorrow is promissory note. Today is ready cash. Today is a present, that is why all the gift is named as a present. It’s presented to you by God. Present tense is the present from God. So decide only for one day – “Today whatever is going to happen is going to happen. I am not….whatever I will be able to stop, I will be able to stop. Whatever intellectual….the intelligent decisions I’ll be able to make, I am going to make. Everything is going to be as usual. Only my decision whether to be happy, whether to accept it and enjoy it or to reject it and suffer.” It is you who has to decide. Everyday morning, just get up and ask. The Master beautifully says – naturally my mind will decide bliss, then I will tell, “then be blissful” that’s all. Who can disturb you? It is your attitude. It is your choice.

Then disciples are always disciples - some question they find in this also. They find – “if my mind decides Pain, what should I do?” If your mind wants to enjoy the pain allow it to enjoy the pain. Then pain also is ananda. You are choosing. When you choose, it means what? You are enjoying it that is why you are choosing it. So even if we choose the pain, what is the wrong? Nothing wrong. Enjoy the pain because you chose it. You have chosen it. Because you are enjoying - you are choosing. If you don’t enjoy the pain, will you choose? Even the pain if you choose, then enjoy it.

Whatever the life brings, whatever the lifestyle you live, just add only one thing - the celebration way of taking the things. Taking the whole life with ananda, with bliss. If ananda is added into your life, it is a great technique to cleanse your whole life, to energize your whole life. It is the lifestyle, it is the real religious prayer. Laughter is a prayer. I used to tell - a new spiritual LSD – Laugh-Sing-dance. A spiritual LSD, which can give you the real life, which can give spirituality to you. The way in which you decide, you look your life, is the way in which Existence showers on you. A small story - Once a passenger is travelling through a kingdom, came to the king’s court and he said he wants to stay. King told, “Alright, accommodate him.” He went and stayed in the guesthouse. The passenger saw that there are 1 or 2 uncomfortable things…the discomforts: Geyser is not working or no generator. He went and complained to the king, “No geyser, no generator, what is this?” Then king told, “Kick this fellow out. Giving a stay itself is too much. If he starts complaining, kick this fellow out.” Next day, the same passenger came with a different setup, different makeup, he came. This time he got a good lesson. He came that he wanted to stay. He said to the king that he wanted to stay. King told, “Alright stay”. This time the same problem. He came back to the king and told, “King, you have given me such beautiful guesthouse, I am so happy, I have come here to pay my respect and gratitude.” King calls the minister, “Please take care of all his comforts. Go and see that whether he is completely comfortable or not. Take care of him, he is our chief guest, he is our honorary guest.”

This is the same thing, this is the same way Existence behaves with us. God is a mirror, if you just go and stand in front of him with a begging bowl, he will also be standing with a big begging bowl. If you go and give your love and namaskar, he will also be showering his love and blessings. So many times you have prayed to God, but you are praying for a ring; praying for a ring we are doing every day, but are we paying gratitude for the finger that he has given? We are continuously in prayer, asking for a diamond ring. If you are wearing a silver ring, ask for a gold ring. If it is a gold ring, then a diamond ring. Continuously we are praying for ring but have we paid….are we paying our gratitude for the finger which he has given? We take the whole life for granted. He has given so much for us, we simply take the whole thing for granted as if we are ordained to have this. Have you earned anything which you have in your life? The very breath, can you earn? Have you done any work and got it as a salary? Can you say that “I have done some work and God gave me the salary to breathe? God gave me this as a salary”? The very breath which you are breathing, is a gift of Existence, gift of God; but we take the whole thing for granted and again go for something more.

So when you look the Existence, when you look the God, when you look the divine, go always to pay your love and gratitude. So all of you just be very clear - everyday morning when you get up, start….as soon as you get up, you call yourself and ask, “Today for next 24 hours….”, don’t decide more than 24 hours, don’t go for 2 days. For next 24 hours, you know “this is the life which I am going to live, this is the structure which I am going to live. Unless some genie comes to my house its not going to change.” ☺ And you know except in stories, genie never comes. Genie means - all of you understand? The ghost which gives some boons. So he is not going to come. So let us be very clear - ‘this is the way I am going to live’ - whether to live happily, joyously, juicily, in a dancing mood or to live in a dull, dead, dragging mood - decide! Whatever you decide, work out; that’s all! What is the complication? What is the difficulty?

So when you are joyful, not only your aura changes, your energy itself changes. All the 6 chakras opens, not only opens, getting energized - gets energized with the joy. Bliss is the master key. Nithyananda is master key. Nithyananda is the key you can get from Nithyananda. Nithyananda is the master key to open all the 7 chakras, not only to open to energize...with Nithyananda you will have no fear, no death fear. You will have a tremendous satisfaction. When Yama comes, you will not say No. “Come let us go. Have you brought vehicle? I can’t fit in your vehicle, it’s too late, bring me some other good vehicle or you wait, I’ll reach first then you come back.” You will be just ready, you will not say, No or tomorrow, because you will have a tremendous satisfaction that you have lived your life. With Nithyananda you will have tremendous satisfaction. With Nithyananda, where is the question of depression. You are simply expression, you are living with full of expression, joy.

So Manipuraka is already open and it’s full of energy. With Nithyananda you will be continuously doing a selfless service, you will never think, “I am, I am.” You will never think, “Aham.” You will always think, “Tum.” When you are in sorrow, dukkha, you will feel weight, you feel you are solid, you need somebody’s attention. When you are in ananda, you...not only you don’t ask the attention - you give attention. It is the gift of overflowing. With Nithyananda you don’t compare with anybody. People compare you with you. Instead of you comparing with them, they start comparing with you. They simply feel jealousy. What is happening to this person? Continuously jumping and moving like a flower.

So with Nithyananda, you are never serious. So your Ajna is also open. If you see all the 7 chakras, not only opens - it reaches its optimum with Nithyananda. Your bullock cart body becomes flying aircraft if you just take Nithyananda within you. You just make Nithyananda a seat in your vehicle, you just make…..you just see that Nithyananda sits in your heart, your bullock cart vehicle becomes aircraft. You have learnt all the 7 gears of the mechanism.

So the master key is Master Himself. The very word ‘Nithyananda’, it is not My name. I am giving it as a principle, not as a person; not as a person - as a principle. Living the ever bliss life, with bliss, with life, with ananda, even Yama will feel shy to touch you. When He comes, He will come with full respect, “Shall we move?” You will tell, “Yes, let us.” So the whole life will be different.

A beautiful story – If you are mud, the mud water, the area the tank filled with mud water, if you have to purify the water, if you have to filter it, what to do? Some disciples told, “You’ll have to put the hand and do something or filter it.” So many ideas, advice came. He told, “No, nothing doing. Just take one hand full of lime and drop it. The lime will simply clear all the dirt and dust and it will get settled below. The water will become pure.” Just like that, your confused mind only one key - add Nithyananda. Add the Nithyananda lime… enough, your whole Being will be cleaned and get settled. Not only cleaned, you will start bubbling with energy.

So this is the master key to carry with you from the camp, from this meditation program. You have got the key, which you need to practice every day. This one key - practice it with full sincerity. It is enough to transform your life which can open all the chakras. You may think, “Such a simple key, how can it be?” But all great things are very simple. Only we make it complicated. Ramana Maharshi says beautifully. Some of the Ramana Maharshis disciples went and say in front of him, it’s a tamil song. I will translate

Ayee. Meththa kadinam unnakadimai ayee meththa kadinam

It means, “Oh, it is so difficult to be a disciple of you. It is so difficult… to get enlightened, to be in the spiritual path is so difficult.” Then Bhagwan Ramana Maharshi sings –

Ayee Athi sulabham Atma vidthai ayee Athi sulabam

Oonar udal ethuvae nan nan enum nenaivae,

nan nan unarvugal ser nan na enum Athanal

Nan nan ennagugaiyul Thaanai posingitavae

Ayee Athi sulabam Atma vidthai ayee Athi sulabam

The meaning - “Oh, it is so easy - the Atma Vidya. It is so easy to get enlightened.” He gives explanation, “If you want money, you have to go and work. If you want name and fame, you have to go and work. If you want some relationship, you have to go and work. If you want enlightenment, just sit and relax.” ☺ Just sit with yourself and relax. That’s enough. You are already enlightened. The energy is simply flowing in you. Only you need to sit and recognize, you sit and look. Somebody says to Ramana Maharshi, “God is not taking care of me. He never looks at me. What should I do?” He says, “He is just walking behind you. First you turn and see whether he looks at you or not. Then you complain. You never turn and see him.” So first turn in and see - you’ll be seeing - he is sitting.

How to pay the gratitude? The disciple is asking the master, “How to pay the gratitude?” Master beautifully replies, “All the Masters of all the ages wanted the disciples to be in ananda. That is the reason so many techniques have been designed. What for all these techniques are designed? Tell me, what for? So be in ananda; that is the gratitude… that is the way. That is the gratitude which you can pay to all the Masters.” The respect, reverence, gratitude, which you can pay to all the Masters…. what is the way? The love and bliss - ananda, the celebration. You can’t take this much of money and give it to them. That is not going to help in any way. They won’t even bother. The Masters who designed all these techniques, the Masters who gave so many gifts to the world, they can’t be touched by anything except your love and gratitude. The way to pay the love and gratitude is celebration. So let you all be filled with Nithyananda. Thank you.
