“Swamiji asks: Did you raise your hand?”

I welcome you all with my love and Respects. Few basic things. First thing put your whole effort in every Meditation.only when you put whole effort. The real experience can happen . It can be a life Transforming Experience . Never think that you have come for weekend vacation. If it is just. a weekend vacation , understand why 26 people are following me .

Swamiji asks: Did you raise your hand? Answer: Yes i did. Oh because you all are second. From all over people who are attending first time. From all over the country 26 people have gathered here. And there are some people attending 4th, 5th program. Yes 4th program. How many 4th and 5th yes,hmm . These are all 4th. I think each year goes ...……………………………………..than me, because he comes every where. Keeth comes for every program.

Understand , i will start with a small story. One guy fell sick. He asked one of his college please suggest a doctor the college suggested . Here is the doctor phil go to him surely he will heal you. He will heal you but he is very costly. For first visit he charges 500$ . for next visit on wards you need to have 100$. Even though he is little costly he will heal you.

This guy wanted to go to same doctor and some how save little money also. So he went to the same doctor and told doctor i have come back .the doctor was not even duped for a minute . he quickly diagnosed him and told . please follow the same perception which i gave you last time.

When you want to retain something, hold something you will not get the total result. So understand only when you put your whole effort you get the total result. Water becomes steam only in 100 degree. Never in 99.9 .so if you say Swamiji i put only 90% effort that is not going to work.

Please be very clear 90% effort is not going to reap 90% result. Either you get the result or you miss the game. Here only win or lose thats all. No between. Please be very clear either you win or you lose. So no i put 80% result Swamiji . I will put 90% result Swamiji no. So put your whole effort.

People who are coming for 2nd for them, now three people who are attending for first time please dont listen . Never think you know already. If you think you know already you will miss the whole show. If you really listen only then you will understand how much you are missing every time. I may be speaking same words.

Sometimes just i will repeat exactly. Not even a word will be moved from here and there. It is not that i cant speak something new thing. People think that swamiji has memorised all these. You see i have a crew member . people who travel with me continuously. Even they thought before i came to the States. In Bharat i do only ASP i conduct ,i dont conduct every day Discourses.

They thought Swami has memorised this Discourse, and he speaks the same thing every where.. But only coming to the States they understood, oh ! Swamiji can speak even different subjects so dont think i am speaking the same thing because nothing else can be spoken.

These are the CREAM of my WISDOM. That is why i am using the same words and same ideas. If you really open up your being and listen. You will understand the different layers of meanings. Don't think the words have got the same meaning. If you have grown up , if you have become matured same word will give you a different meaning.

My Discourse if you listen first time you will understand one way, if you listen second time you will understand in a different way. If you listen continuously you will come up on new new meaning. Many people come and report to me , Swamiji i know it is the same audio CD i am listening but many times i feel that i missed something.

Something new is clicking, some more new understanding is dawning on me. Something new is happening to me. So understand never think just because your attending 6th time, 7th time you know everything. Then you will feel only bored. So don't join bored club or bored members or board committee. Understand very clearly everything has got something new. Depending on your growth words will also give new meaning. You will have different meaning.

So be very clear at least this time don't miss. At least this time don't miss, catch. Never think you know already. Everything is new , unknown and i am going to especially do this new twists , so that you will not have the idea that i know because there are almost 50% people who attended . So be very clear this will not be your usual ASP

Either techniques or Discourse anything may change at any time so attend fully. Don't think oh, we know this we can miss one session. Because now it is become like RAMAYANA and MAHABHARATA you know the whole story. Even if you miss one session nothing wrong. You see, I have seen in Bharat the Reciting of RAMAYANA is a great Merit.

The Preacher will be continuously sitting and reciting and the people will be sitting and sleeping.because the whole crowd knows the story. RAMA is only going to forest and SITA will be kidnapped and HANUMAN will go to LANKA. Again RAMA will go to Lanka . RAVANA will be killed. RAMA will get in to the THROWN. Those story every body knows.

Even we miss one session it’s not much, nothing much is lost. Its not a big thing .every body knows the whole story.even if we miss one session nothing much will be lost like a TV serial.one day you miss the story nothing will be lost.next day onwards you can pick up. People who are doing for 2nd or 3rd time for them it will almost become like a TV serial.

Don't think it is TV serial. So it is going to be totally different experience.And in MEDITATION NOTHING IS OLD. Everyday MEDITATION is something new..because every day your exploring a different DIMENSION ,different DEPTH of your Being.Your going deeper and deeper .If you feel every day your meditation is same then don't meditate.

Really i tell you if you fee that your every day MEDITATION is same something seriously wrong is happening.Then you have not got the right technique. Your mind is cheating you. If you really Meditate everyday Meditation will be totally new. How can even Meditation be old ? It can never become, put your effort totally. Sit as if you are sitting for first time. Then you will understand lot more new things. You will listen lot more new things.

Three ways you can relate with me in this class. Three ways you can use this class. Intellectually if you attend this as a intellectual session you will get enough of knowledge . But that is not enough. You may get enough of Knowledge but Knowledge it self is not enough. Just Intellectual Knowledge is not going to help you.

Sometimes it is dangerous. Because your head will become more heavy. Head weight is the greatest danger that can happen to a human being. KNOWING WITHOUT KNOWING IS WHAT I CALL HEAD WEIGHT. Thinking that you know without knowing,.without having the experience . just having the thought that you have experience..So understand knowing without knowing is no way going to help you. Just an Intellectual knowledge is not enough.

SECOND with a little bit of effort half of some way little this and little that. Again then you may have one experience in some one MEDITATION. But that also is not going to help you. If you get one experience in one Mediation its not worthy spending two days. One experience after going from here for one week or 10 days you will be in the HIGH MOOD.even that is not enough.

Put your whole effort 100% you will see this two days will become a LIFE TRANSFORMING EXPERIENCE.you may think how this transform my life, just in two days. Just see this 26 guys. Talk to them after this class there will be interval talk with 26 guys . when they came what they thought , after attending what happened. Talk to them share there experience then you will understand it can really transform your life.

I have seen many people coming and telling me after the program. Swamiji i never thought it is such a great thing. If i would have known little bit its a great program i would have put my effort little more. Then i would have had some more result. When i came i took it very lightly Swamiji. Because when you see my age, i am very clear & very open, frank.. When you see my age it is very difficult to accept GURU or a MASTER or a SWAMI. and Second thing even if you accept , ok he must have studied here and there. Speaking very nicely.

So never think first way , never think the second way. Of Course if you think in first way and second way it is not i am not going to miss something it is you who are going to miss something. I never give this type of introduction in the first session . First session i always will be very lite and with out touching much i leave. But this time i thought i should be very clear giving introduction because when you miss introduction you miss the whole thing.

If you miss the attitude of putting the whole effort you will miss the whole thing. That is why i tell you never think what these two days can transform. Even now your mind will be telling alright this Swami says let us belive thats all. But if you really understand , if you really talk to these people who have done this 2 days course talk to them. And few guys who have done ASP at least talk to 2 persons who are new comers. Just share what you had , what experience you had. What you thought when you came. What you thought when you left.

That 2 is enough. So that they will be inspired to put their effort. But every where i am tired of listening to the same story. When they come they come with all their head, intellect fighting with me. When they go i should have been little more understanding.Swamiji. I should have stopped my head little earlier then i would have had some more experience.so don't miss.

One thing these guys even if they have missed they are coming here , the OHIO last program is here if you miss now there is no more program. Actually directly i am going back to BRAZIL and BANGALORE. So you can not even take chance let me go there and attend. You can not even take the second chance. So don't take chance put your whole effort. At least these guys had a chance they could come, second time. For you no second time is possible . so put your whole effort. so that you go to the deepest levels of your being.

You get solid experience. Which can transform your life. Just to have the Intellectual knowledge you don't have to come here all the way. Sit in front of computer with out sleeping that is more than enough. That is more than enough but that is not totally going to help you even here if you just sit with little bit of alertness you will have the intellectual knowledge. Of course people who are sleeping for them i have a special story.

Small story may not be for your sake but at least for my sake please dont sleep. You may ask why? Yesterday i was telling. A bus driver and a Priest both of them died and went to have the judgement. Saint peter gave the judgement . He sent bus driver to heaven and the Preacher to Hell. The preacher asked for justification. Give me justification other wise i will sue you. Must be from America. Any how. The Preacher asked for justification. Saint Peter said , You see here up in the heaven we don't bother what you do. we bother only what is the result.

When this guy drove people were all praying for their life. When you were Preaching people were all sleeping. So if you sleep when i go there i will get the hell.so may not be for your sake but at least for my sake don't sleep. Sit totally and listen. Next thing again if you put half of effort some CHAKRA will be open and some will be closed.There is some more danger.That is why i tell you put your whole effort , don't bother my mind is wondering here , my mind is wondering there. Mind means it will wonder. Dont worry about it .

The very nature this mind is wondering. Somebody came and told me Swamiji my wife is not listening to my words at all.Then what do you mean by the word wife. The very word means not only she will not listen, she will have her own views. If she listens whatever you say, then take immediately to physiatric doctor. She needs treatment . something seriously wrong . take them to the doctor. She needs treatment

So naturally mind means it will wonder.you know dont bother my mind is wandering here and there. Whatever effort you can put put it totally. That's all, I am not telling you to be perfect .I am telling you to be total. When you Mediate put your whole effort every moment. Sometimes you will forget to meditate and your mind will be wondering somewhere.when you remember don't have the guilt immediately bring the mind and fix it thats all. Immediately bring the mind and fix it. Don't worry that my mind has gone here , my mind has gone there. I am not cut meditation,I am not ready for meditation.

Don't decide before starting it self. Put your whole effort don't bother about perfection. Perfection cannot happen but totality can happen. So put your total 100% effort nothing else is necessary. I always tell one more thing, whenever we listen to do something to do with our body, the physical things, the medical things. If you go to a doctor, the doctor says if you have pain in knee it might be symptom of arthritis. If you have continuous pain in neck it may be symptom of spondylitis .

Immediately what you do ? even though you don't have neck pain you check once. May not be touching the hand but mentally you check. Do I really have or not. You diagnose yourself mentally. When it is a physical things you diagnose yourself . you compare with yourself, you work with yourself. If it is a SPIRITUAL thing you will go to a Spiritual Discourse,that SWAMI says have little bit of adjustment and compassion in your life only then you can be happy. What immediately you think my husband should listen all this things. My wife needs this advice. I should bring my Mother- In- Law next time to the class.

Whether it is a Spiritual thing immediately you think of the other person. You don't compare with yourself. I have seen many people everyone comes and complains to me about the other. He is doing like that Swamiji , He is doing like thisSwamiji. The common way i will tell. Aare understand don't possess me , don't be too possessive, don't be violent with others, see the divine in everybody. Just i will finish the Discourse they will immediately come and tell me. Swamiji i am seeing Divine in him only he is not seeing in me. If you really see Divine in other person will you complain about him? Never . you will never complain .

People always think i am speaking for next person. I am speaking to the next person . please be very clear i am not speaking to the person who is sitting left to you or sitting right to you or who is sitting back side you or sitting front of you. I am speaking exactly to you. I am speaking exactly to you. So what ever i say compare with yourself. If you feel it is not applicable to you raise your hands and talk to me directly. Don't think oh this is generalised statement. I think this is not for me. I am not so bad as Swamiji says.I am little bad thats true but not so bad .

Once mulla nasrudin. was weeping his wife was in death bed. He started weeping Oh your leaving me and going away what will i do. He started weeping you are leaving me and going way.what will i do . she started shouting on death bed. Any Moment she can die but she started shouting. You fellow i cant belive you i know you. Don't weep like crocodile . the crocodile shows that he is weeping but he never weeps.don’t weep like crocodile. I know that the moment i die you fool you will marry once more Nasrudin says i agree i am a fool but not so fool to do the same mistake once more. We always think we are not so fool. We are not so much we are little bit ,but we are not so much. Never think . there is only two category in the world BUDDHA or BUDDHU. Buddha or buddhu , SHIVA or SHAVA . that’s all. Buddhu means murkah, the fool. Either you are ENLIGHTENED or FOOL . Thats all there is no between category. Don’t satisfy that you are a middle category. Don’t satisfy yourself as a between category. Either you are enlightened or fool. So understand that there is no middle category, inbetween. So dont think your middle. but all of us, almost every one of us 99.99% of us think we are middle category. No ,i am not Enlightened that is true. I am not last category . i am middle category. We always think middle category.

Don't think your middle. Be very clear where you stand. At least you can start your next steps. Just understand and look into yourself with every statement. Don't look into others. These are few things. Just three things. I AM SPEAKING TO YOU. PUT YOUR WHOLE EFFORT AND UNDERSTAND WEATHER YOUR 1ST TIME OR 2ND TO PUT THE WHOLE EFFORT. If your are 1st time put 100% effort, if you are 2nd time put 120% effort. Because your mind has become now mature even to leave the Meditation. Meditation is like a pesticide. You know Agriculture people say if the pesticide has not died, the insects have not died for the first time pesticide they start learning how to live eating the pesticide. So next time you need little more dose. So people who are attending 2nd time they have become master the meditation. You have won even the BUDDHA, You have conquered the BUDDHA. Even Buddhas cannot do anything to you.

So now you need to put little more effort. The dose , the pesticide dose has to be increased little more. If you have become Enlightened there no need for you to come for the second course. So you have come here surely because you have not become Enlightened. So don't think you got the whole 100% for the first time. So put your whole effort totally in every Meditation. AND MIND AND MEDITATION IS JUST LIKE MOTHER-IN -LAW DAUGHTER-IN-LAW THEY CANNOT STAY TOGETHER. ITS ULTIMATE LAW. When ever your mind possesses you your Meditation Will never happen. When ever Meditation possesses you MIND will never be there. So i tell you when you Meditate don't let your mind come in. dont let your mind come in. your mind will tell no no no i feeling giddy. I may faint , i may fall don't bother if you fall we are here to take care. Volunteers are here to take care. I know that i am in a county where laws suits are common. So all techniques are full proof techniques. Nothing wrong will happen to you. nothing wrong will happen to you. There are thousands & thousands of people who have practised this technique.

I think this is 54th or 58th ASP in one year . In last one year. I do ASP only on weekends. Only one year over.Almost every weekend. Last year January i started and 1year 3months. Almost practically every weekend i am having a programs. All over the world thousands of people have practised this Meditation. The only side side effect i have seen is the BLISS & THE GROWTH. Spiritual growth. No other side effect or after effect so put your whole effort.

Don't bother your mind will try all its best. I have knee pain, back pain. I think i have little headache. Let me practise next Meditation. These all will be tactics of your mind. Don't listen to it, don't belive it. So put your effort so that your whole being is boiled. Actually it is an ALCHEMY PROCESS. It is just an Alchemy process. Some of the dirt will be removed from you. Some of the positive things will be added to you. And the boiling process will be done. It is almost Alchemy process.so don't worry about it.

Put Your whole effort you will see that your transformed. Next thing you can all introduce yourself to each other then we will start the meditations. You may ask why we should introduce ourselves to each other. Because Next 2 days you are going to be here there. Some body may be sitting next to , some body may be sitting in front of you. Some body may be Unknown persons , new person will be sitting in front of you, next to you. If you do not know the other you will feel little uncomfortable. I have always seen, when i tell them please close your eyes and tie the ribbon they will look just here & there. Weather he has closed the eyes or weather she has closed the eyes. There are some guys they will stand up and see weather every body else have closed eyes or not.

If you are known to next person and know each other you will not have uneasiness. You will not have discomfort . you will be able to close your eyes and tie the ribbon.that is the reason go around and introduce yourself to each other. Please introduce yourself to everyone. Let you take the slip. Please see the slip there are seven points mentioned in the slip. These are called seven energy centers.

Just if you read the name that is enough. I will read out from below, MULADHARA SWADISTANA MANIPURAKA ANAHADA VISUDHI AGNYA SAHASTRARA You don't need to remember the names don't worry about it. Just understand that is enough. I will give you the english names please write down the english names then it will be easy to follow. MULADHARA- is the root center. SWADISTHANA- is spleen chakra. Don't think spleen is there, that is the way they use in english. THIRD naval center Next heart center. ANAHATA is heart center VISUDHI is throat center AGNYA is brow center SAHASTRARA is crown center. In all RELIGION these ENERGY CENTRES are mentioned in different ways. In every religion mentioning of these energy centres exists. Including christian theology. Even in christian theology mentioning of these energy centres are there.may not be in Bible directly but in theology it is there. All most all the MISTICS speak about these energy center.

The modern day KIRLIAN PHOTOGRAPHY is just like a X-RAY. There is a kirlian photography. In RUSSIA they use this kirlian photography as a diagnostic system anybody who knows about the kirlian photography. Who heard about it. Just like X-RAY they photograph your AURA BODY , the ETHERIC BODY, the SUTTLE BODY. By photographing the suttle body 6 months ago they are able to diagnose fatal diseases like cancer.just by photographing you.just by photographing they are able to diagnose disease 6 months earlier. Not one day or two day 6 months earlier. Actually any disease happens to you physically. Only after happening in energy wise, 6 months ago they are able to diagnose the problems. Through this kirlian photography they proved the existence of CHAKRAS. When a person Mediates the chakras get expanded. When a person is stressed or worried chakras get shrunk. This is very clearly proved. Each and everyone of your energy centers are releated to some particular emotion.

For example LOVE IS RELATED TO YOUR HEART CENTER. You may ask how ? around the world in all the culture, in all the language, love and heart are used as SYNONYMS. Love and heart are used as synonyms , not only in.english language in every language. Any of you who knows some language in which love and heart is not synonymous.you can tell me .because more than 50-60 language i referred in every language it is synonymous.

Love heart two words are used as a synonymous . It is not that God has created all languages in one day. Translating packages. Dropped in one one country no. every language is developed , different languages are developed by different person. In different place. In different country . in different situation. Then why LOVE & HEART these two are synonymous in all the language. In all tradition. There is some more deep connection between these two, LOVE & HEART.

If you see some of your childhood friend suddenly ,surprisingly you see him or her after 20 years with whom you have a loving memories. Suddenly you will feel something is happening in this region , something will be coming up. That Is what is love.many people come and tell me SWAMIJI THE MOMENT I SEE YOU I START WEEPING. Many people weep oh again. Some weep out of love that is different. When you see somebody with whom you have loving memories,cherished memories, joyful memories just your heart over flows you can feel exactly in this region. Something happening. How many of you have felt, when you meet somebody , when you see somebody after long time something will be happening here.

People who are attending second time please give chance for the first time. Let them all relate with me. You can very clearly feel that something is happening in the ANATHA REGION. I always tell love is a peace maker. If you have a peace maker you don't need pacemaker. When you don't have peace maker you need pacemaker. Love is a emotion which is related to ANAHADA CENTER heart center , heart chakra. Worrie or depression is related to naval. You can always understand totally in the heart that is more than enough. If you take the notes you will miss my discourse because my speed is such you will never be able to capture. Ask the people who are with me for more than 2 years. People who attended 40 ASP’s. I think my PRO and all attended 40 ASP. 40 ASP they have attended . Ask them if they can take notes or anything NO. It is impossible dont try to take notes when you try to take notes you will miss lot of things. So just take inside that is more than enough.

Just understand thats more than enough. When ever you don't understand your free to raise any question. It is not that you should continuously listen.you can just ask question you don't have to feel oh i will be asking crazy questions. All questions are crazy, be very clear. All questions are foolish. So there is no such thing separately crazy question or foolish question.so you are free to ask question. If you don't question also don't think you look like a intelligent guy. So we always think if i ask question i may look like fool.

But most of the time when you don't question ,you actually not look like ,you actually look like fool. You actually do that. A small story One guy went to bar there one salesman was standing, sales representative. He was dressed up in a very smart way. This guy was very much impressed seeing his dress. He also wants to have same type of dress. He went near that sales man and asked what is this shoes ? what shoes they are? What shoes are they? This guy replied crocodile shoes. Immediately this guy he dint understand, not only he dint understand, he doesn’t want to show that he has not understood. He should have at least asked one more word what does it means ? where i will get it? He din't ask any clarification, he dosen’t want to show that he is ignorant. He went to the next person one of his friend and asked, what is crocodile? The friend said ,Oh that is an animal that lives in the river if you go to brazil you may get it.This guy sold his old ford car,& what ever saving he had and took a ticket ,flight and went to the brazil, caught hold of a tourist guide with his help some how he went inside the jungle started travelling in side the jungle. And somehow he managed to get a boat also, and he was travelling in the river, rowing in the river. Suddenly the tourist guy shouted ye here is a crocodile , here is a crocodile. Took out his big knife jumped into the river had a big fight .Almost he was lost but some how he managed to kill that crocodile. And managed to pull it out of the river. After pulling it out he just turned to the crocodile and shouted oh no shoes on this crocodile.

If you miss one point. If he would have raised one question, if he asked only once what is crocodile shoes? The whole journey would not have been there. If you miss one point you miss one thing the whole thing will be lost. So i tell you when ever you have doubt don't think if you ask you will look like a fool. If you don't ask only then. If you ask you may look like a fool but if you don't ask you may act like a fool. Looking like a fool or acting like a fool what is the best you decide. Looking like a fool is much better than acting like a fool. So when ever you don’t understand anything stop and directly question. There is no need to just record,don’t just take the notes. Understand you will see that the notes is taken in your heart.

And one more thing even if you miss the laugh ,miss the joke, don't miss the LAUGHTER. There are many guys just sitting and watching me and some guys i know this joke already. One more small story here. One big intelectual , philosophy professor . As you all know, Philosophical professor are my favorites. One philosophy professor went to attend a Discourse by one of his own students to see how he speaks. As soon as the student knows the professor is coming. He prepared too much for the discourse. He started giving the discourse . the discourse was so nice the whole hall is enjoying, everybody is bubbling, over flowing with the joy and everybody enjoyed. But through out the discourse this guy had a long face. You know how these philosophy professors how they keep there face. Long face. That guy kept a long face. That guy not even once acknowledged or smiled a little bit. This student is totally disappointed. What is this i prepared so much, whole crowd is enjoying except this one man and after the discourse this student went near the professor and asked.sir was it not good ? have you enjoyed, how is my discourse? OH! you simply prepared from one book. I know the whole discourse. You simply picked it from one book and repeated it. I know every word of your discourse, Isn't that book. This guy got shock. Then the professor challenged. Tomorrow I will present the book to you. Tomorrow i will bring the book and give it to you. You can see by yourself the whole your discourse word by word it is there in that book. The guy is shocked. Next day he was received the book from the philosophy professor DICTIONARY. The book is dictionary. This philosophy professors they know how to make anything dull. Anything can be reduced to dullness.

If you think you know already you are also a philosophy professor. If you think you know already you are also philosophy professor. So don’t miss the laughter even if you miss the joke. Granny is thinking i know all these jokes how can i laugh? Don’t think , even if you miss the joke don’t miss the laughter. People ask me Swamiji i don’t know the language, in Bharat that is one problem. For English ASP Tamil people come and sit and for Tamil ASP English people come and sit. Because getting seat is very difficult in Bharat. Enrolling is very difficult. Too much of crowd. So they ask me Swamiji i don’t know the language what should i do. If you don’t know the language then your the right person to sit here. When you don't know the language at least you are clear you don't understand. You know you don’t know. but If you know the language you don’t even know you don’t know. You understand half half and you think that you know, that is the problem. So even if you miss the joke don’t miss the laughter.

NASARUDIN was telling a small joke to all of his friends on a cup of coffee.He messed the joke so much. He lost the punch line no body was able to understand, no body could understand. He missed the joke. But some how one guy started laughing uproariously. Good belly laughter. Others all are asking what have you understood ? why are you laughing keep quite. The guy who laughed he told laugh now itself other wise he will tell the same joke once more. So if you don’t laugh i will tell the same joke once more. People who have done ASP also understand, if you are not going to laugh. I am going to tell same joke once more.

Your worry and depression is very closely related to navel center. When ever you get some news which is shocking. Which you are not able to bare the first blow will be for stomach. You get the stomach upset. How many of you have you experienced?YES , you get the first blow for stomach only and again you say i can’t digest it. This expression that i can’t digest exists in all the language. When you get some shocking news you exclaim OH ! I can’t digest. I can’t stomach it, exists in all the language.

Worry is related to the naval center. Each and every emotion is related to one one CHAKRA. If you use that emotion that chakra opens . if you abuse that emotion that chakra gets locked. EMOTION IS THE ENERGY WHICH PUTS THE CHAKRAS INTO MOTION. The energy \+ motion is emotion. Which gives the energy for the Chakras to move is EMOTION. Every emotion is very closely related to one Chakra. In our seven session. We are going to have seventh session in this two days. We will work on every chakra. The Emotion related to that Chakra. We will discuss about that Emotion and a Technique to awaken that Chakra. If that Chakra get awakened that Emotion gets purified. If that Emotion is purified the Chakra get awakened. Its like a circle. You can awaken the Chakra and purify the Emotion and purify the Emotion and awaken the Chakra. Both can happen. If this happens that happen , if that happens this happens. These two days every session we are going to first understand Emotion and how to purify it. Then do the MEDITATION to awaken the Chakra. Purifying the emotion , purifying the Chakra. These two are the things that we are going to do. In this whole course, whole day. First we will work on ANAHATA CHAKRA. Heart center. The first energy center is ANAHATA CHAKRA., Heart centre. Chakra which is situated in this region. In the center of the Heart. Not side, in the centre of the Heart. Immediately always people ask me Swamiji i under went Bi pass surgery will the chakra be there as it is. Even if your Heart is removed don’t worry the Chakra will be there as it is. Chakra can never be removed by Bi pass surgery. The Chakra will be there without being disturbed. It is upto your CONSCIOUSNESS not the physical thing. It is a METAPHYSICAL ENERGY. I was telling you love is emotion closely related to this Chakra.

Let us see what is Love. I will take some of your help to understand what is Love. Answer me what you feel as Love. please don’t bring all philosophical answers. I have always seen as soon as i ask what is love people tell selflessness Swamiji. Are you selfless? Is your love selfless love. Give me the answer which is your experience. No philosophy. I know much more philosophy than you. If i start speaking philosophy, so give me the practical answer. Because now we're here to work on practical level. If you want to know just the philosophy go to the web site. Just type www. Meditation.com. 3000 websites open not one or two. 3000 websites are opening and you will get thoroughly confused. So i am not here to talk any philosophy. I am here to talk only something practical. So answer me what you feel as Love. Let us start with Nidhi Jackson. What do you think as love? OK, if you say that somebody Loves you what is the scale? Alright when you Love somebody what is the scale? Answer: Care hmm ok. then let us go to Shalin hmm SWAMIJI: ok. Mangala Venkatesh . Swamiji does question answer session .

Ok, let me put the whole thing in nut shell form and present. The best answer is given by Nidhi. Caring this is the only word which we can directly understand. This is the only expression. If we love somebody we care for them. If somebody cares for us we say they love us. Thats all. Caring and attention is the only thing with which we measure the love. All other things are just superficial words. This is the right ,straightforward word CARING. When you care for somebody you say you love him.when somebody cares for you you say he loves you. But slowly , slowly how what all the ways it gets degenerated. The feeling for caring others or the feeling of attending others or expecting that others should attend you. How it gets degenerated. How it locks your ANAHATA. Most of the time attention need asking for the others attention towards you becomes a big necessity. If you scan your life you will understand 80% of your actions are nothing but ,not 80, i think 90. More than 90% of your deeds your doings are just asking the others attention. In every step you ask the others attention. You want others attention.

If they are not attending you sometimes you just force to give attention. In every step if everybody attends you, you feel very good. If you are not attended you feel you are nobody. If you have seen these kids. When the kids play they will throw something or they do something then they will slowly turn and see your face. Whether you accept or acknowledge it or not. If you acknowledge then they will go ahead. If you don’t then immediately they will again answer you back and sit silently. And some will start crying. Each one will respond in their own way.

From the very young age you ask for others acknowledgement, certificate. Asking others acknowledgement, certificate, attention all these things. Asking for the attention, asking for the others care or asking for others certificate. Our whole life you can see continuously is nothing but collecting certificates. From the very beginning first collect good certificate from parents, then collect good certificate from teachers , then from the friends, then from the professors, then from husband, then from kids , then from grandkids, then from community. From everybody we want good certificates.

Whole life you can see it nothing but a long signature campaign. True if you have a big note book with you where ever you go you carry. You just immediately write i am a good person please sign it. I have a good son please sign it , a good wife please sign it. Your life is nothing but a long signature campaign. When somebody is not signing you feel bad. If more persons sign you feel more good your ego is pampered. You feel you are attended or cared. You feel good about yourself. That your somebody. More and more people sign you feel your bigger and bigger person.

That is why in our life every step, every step we expect others opinions. Others certificate others care, others attention. If you seen the kids playing they build castles with paying cards. Have you seen with the playing cards kids build a castel. They build buildings. Just like you also build personality with others certificate. Atleast kids are intelligent they build castle with their own cards.

You build your castle with others certificate. Any time any guy if he takes away the certificate what will happen? Whole castel collapses and as long as you dance according to their tunes only they will let there certificate to be with you.when you dance according to your own tune what will happen? Immediately certificate will be taken away. How long you can be dancing to everybodies tune. So when you dance for your own tune. When you live on your own immediately the certificate is taken away.

Then if one person removes certificate the whole personality collapses , trumbles down. That is why even if the person who is not certifying you , even if he is not directly involved in you life. The person who is commenting about you or not certifying you. Even if he not related to your day to day life you feel depressed. Just one guy on the road if he says are you dog immediately you bark at him and prove. If somebody asks are you mad you yell at him and prove. Any one word from one person can easily depress you.

If you think your are very sensitive person, if you think you are continuously getting distrubed, if you think you are emotional person be very clear you are not emotional person , you are weak person. You allow so many persons to interfere in your life. If you allow so many persons to rule in your life . YOUR ANAHAT WILL NEVER OPEN. Heart opens only when you center your whole energy on the heart. People ask me Swamiji should we not live a compromised life. Should we not adjust ourselves.

Adjust is different and compromise is different. Understand adjust means you will never disturbed by anybody's opinion. You are totally centred on you. Even after that you just adjust out of love and compassion with others . That is adjustment. Compromising means you are not solid about yourself. You yourself adjust by others opinion. Your like a centiped with 100 legs. Centiped can only move with 100 legs. If one leg is taken away what will happen. It will fall. Your also emotional centiped you need 100 persons with you. All the 100 should praise you. They should say oh don’t you know about him he is such a good person. She is such a good person. Everybody should pamper you . only then you feel like moving . other wise you feel like drop dead.

If you just live based on others opinions, if you live just for the sake others, if you just live a compromised life . It is much worse than live dead. I tell you physically being handicap is nothing wrong. Phycological being handicap is the worst thing. It is the worst thing. If you continuously bothered about others opinion. You are physiologically handicap. Any fool can put in depression. Its a homework please all of you do it. Do this as a homework , it’s a small homework. When you go back just write how many persons can put you into depression in your life. Just write a list, it will not be big homework. I don’t think it is going to take 10 days to write this . half an hour if you sit you can write. If its taking more than half an hour then it is worth writing then you are continuously in depression don’t bother of the rest.

Half an hour is more than enough. Remember who all can put you in depression. Who all has got the capacity to put you in depression. Then you can be sure you are slave of all of them. You are searching or asking for all these guys certificates.you are behind their attention. I tell you one thing if a man gives his attention don't think he will simply give. He will give his attention only when you act as he wants. So psychologically he will be ruling you. I have seen so many so called leaders. They are not leaders actually mass is leading them.

These priests or the politicians both are actually not leaders. Don’t think they are leaders mass is actually leading them. Mass opinion leads them. It is not that they lead the mass. Mass opinion leads them. You are also ,you think your leader but mass opinion only leads you. Actually God is a very intelligent person. You always think that you have your own will. He makes you think that you have your own will but he guides in his own way. And women also very intelligent. You may think that you are deciding .she will do such a way that you will think you are deciding authority and you will decide what she wants in the end. You will exactly decide only what she wants but you will have the clear conviction that you are the authority.

Its a very suttle way and most of the time you are ruled but you don't even know you are ruled. Make a list

Some one asks the question to swamiji : why RAMA sent SITA to forest listening to someone

SWAMIJI REPLIED: yes it’s a right question

In RAMA'S kingdom one dhobi commented about SITA’S purity. Then immediately SITA has been sent out of the kingdom. Upon the persons opinion. I tell you it's my honest feeling RAMA is not ENLIGHTENED. At Least from this incident i can say he is simple King. he is not an Human being he is just a king. What ever you may give the justification, at least from my Experience i can not accept it. Any judgement for this incident.

LADY SAYS: he tested SITA

SWAMIJI: Yes, not only tested SITA. disrespected SITA. there are many people who give many explanation. OH no no he is a king . He is suppose to be a ideal person. He is suppose to show the path for the whole society, the whole humanity. But some how i am not able to digest this incident. So whether it is RAMA or KAMA mistake is mistake. From my point of view i can be sure RAMA has done surely a mistake.

A MAN ASKS : but he is an AVATAR.

SWAMIJI :even if he is an AVATAR if he has done a mistake means mistake only. We can not justify it.

SOMEONE ASKS: what was the reason SWAMIJI: what was the reason.? Tell me

REPLY: may be everybody's happiness

SWAMIJI: Oh every body happiness then what about SITA’S happiness? Oh you see onething , if you can’t care of your wife’s happiness how will you care for other people happiness. What are you talking ? where is sensitivity? I don’t think this incident can be justified. You see it is not that i don’t have devotion for RAMA. surely i know much better about RAMA then you all.

I know him much more intimately then you all. It’s not that I have disrespect for RAMA. but this incident cannot be justified. I tell you one thing. There are few incidents may be added to their life which did not happen . There is a possibility. When the person who records the history writes the PURANA. If he has got his own understanding it might have entered into the incident. Either the incident is not totally recorded. from all the angle or the incident is insertion. This type of justification may help but other wise if the incident is true it can never be justified in any way.

Anyway the incident can be justified as it is. I tell you if you cannot be sensitive to your wife with whom you lived for so many years. Who followed you to the forest and who was with you continuously and if SITA would have thought she could have stayed with RAVANA.and she would have been much more comfortable, much more happy , much more joyful. She would have had all sorts of luxury .but she never did that. She never even thought about it. She never even imagined and that time kingdom of AYODHI is very small. And kingdom of RAVANA is too big. She would have been equipped three worlds.

So no way this incident can be justified. You can understand two ways either it is inserted by somebody who has not understood RAMA or the incident is not totally recorded. There may be some other possibilities that this dobhi would have commented, SITA would have got totally upset or disturbed. By this comment. Then RAMA would have told go and Meditate spend some time alone . to grow out of these comments.

If it is that case then ok, or it is an insertion it is ok. If the incident is true we cannot do anything except blaming RAMA. Except blaming RAMA. we must be honest. Let’s not support him just because we have vested interest on him. If you hold onto principle you will reach the state of Enlightenment. If you hold on to personality then there is every chance of missing it. So don’t hold on to personality, don’t justify the persons. Don’t bend the principal for the sake of persons. Bend the person for the sake of principal.

I always tell people don’t hold on to me. Hold on to my philosophy. DON’T CATCH NITHYANANDA CATCH NITHYA - ANANDA.if you are going to catch NITHYANANDA its not going to help you . Catch NITHYA - ANANDA. Catch NITHYANANDA if he helps to put you in NITHYA - ANANDA.. Catch nithyananda if he helps you to guide towards nithya-ananda. So catch the principal. So from my experience or from my view i can tell you, this incident cannot be justified. It is totally wrong. Then any fool dhobi will comment and you will just send your wife away, to the forest . surely wrong. Surely wrong , i think then that is the case we will be just waiting for the dhobies.which dhobi will comment . Let us some how if that becomes an ideal,then we are all waiting for dhobies. Actually one devotie i know that she is having problem with her husband. She purchased a big Rudraksha mala and she went to the house with the big Rudraksha mala. I asked her hey ! you are going with such big Rudraksha mala are you not affaried your husband will runaway. She said i am waiting for that only Swamiji. And one guy went to Himalayas and took MANTRA DEEKSHA. Took some MANTRA and came back to the house and started repeating it. Wife came and asked Hey ! what are you repeating? He was not replying , just repeating. Hey! You guy tell me what are you repeating? You went to Himalayas and came back and you are not even speaking to me. Your just sitting and repeating. That guy did not reply. Aarey you guy what are you repeating? What for are you repeating?this guy did not reply . she shouted at him and throw pillows on him that guy did not even. Just he was repeating the mantra. She got totally frustrated and told. You fellow all these years i was living with you. Now just you went to Himalayas and came back and started repeating some mantra. You are not even speaking to me.again he was keeping silent.fellow its not worth living with you . let me leave you. I am going to move away from you . i am divorcing you. She shouted and packed her language and she was about to leave. Again she asked , at least one more chance i will give you. I have decided i am leaving you . tell me what are you repeating. What is the thing happening? The moment she left this guy said wow i never thought that mantra will work so quickly. .
