The Satsang

She asked: “Can you elaborate more, Can you explain a little more how to leave the present moment”?

Here is a simple technique: 0. 37 Mins when you want a simple line technique. Leave inside your boundary, that's all !Just leave inside your boundary .You don't know where your boundary ends. Are you aware of your boundaries? You see: What do you think of your boundary as of now? Your body surely not more than that.Don't think that you are the atman. Unless you have realized the atman If you think you are the atman you missed the whole thing.You are the atman as to the real eyes 1.13 mins. e:You know only one thing . 1.17 mins… body.This is what is your boundary. Start living inside that boundary. Start living inside the boundary.People ask me, People ask me:” Swamiji” Should we renounce to became enlightened? I tell them: “You don't need to renounce anything that you have. Just renounce what you don't have. That is enough''!. The future, you don't have a future now in your hand. Just renounced that- it's enough.The past and the future we don't have. Renounce what you don't have that is enough. Leave what you have. The present moment, you see the body.The body is all you have now.This is your boundary. Start living inside your boundary.

You always create the next step 2.07 mins. Swamiji, if I start living inside my body, stop thinking about the future. How will I 2.13 mins plan my day-to-day activities?

I reveal an important thing:”Plan your day today activities, your chronological planning never 2.25 mins your energy Never sucks your energy .99% of your energy is sucked, by Psychological worry not by chronological planning. If you just 2 .37 mins……….. chronological planning, you will never feel drained, you will never feel stressed out.But, 99% of your energy is sucked, wasted, just by psychological worry. Start living in the present moment whenever you remember when you are 2.53 mins in the car.. If you remember. Suddenly, do only one thing. How your hands are on the steer, how comfortably you are sitting, Just feel how your legs are placed. How your body is. Just witness what is happening Inside your body. What is happening inside your mind? Just be in the present moment. Whenever you remember, again and again and again. When you are walking, when you are sitting, when you are talking, when you are eating, when you are doing things, again and again, be in the present moment. You will see a game of time shaft.

Swamiji: Yes, please, your question

Attendee1:” You answered it”

Attendee 2: How do you 3.42 mins from 3.44 mins?

Swamiji’s Response: Hum hum, understand one thing

Swamiji: He asked:”how to drop the guilt from the past?

One simple story: “You need to-understand. There was a day 4:02 mins ….doing tapasya in the forest. He is doing tapasya , he has not became enlightened.One, one night, midnight, One thief came to his house, his ashram. And asked for a place to stay for that night . The Rishi doesn't know he is a thief. He said : “Please come and stay”. He gave the place, the food, everything. Next day morning the thief is leaving the ashram. He said: Oh Swamiji, I am very grateful for you, you helped me in the midnight., I'm grateful . Bless me and now I'm leaving!Then the rishi asked Are you and where are you going? He declared: “I am a thief and stayed night only, I am sorry for that! But 4.51 mins I was escaping, you gave me the place and saved me! Thank you! He 4.55 mins and left. Now the Rishi started feeling guilty, started praying to God intensely.”Oh God please forgive me I have done such a big sin”. I gave food and shelter for a thief. How big sin it is! He started weeping, profusely. Asking God to forgive him.Suddenly he hears the voice from above. The voice is also weeping, profusely.

The Rishi asked:” God why are you whipping?”I am weeping I 5.32 mins Why are you whipping? God says: “You're given four and 5.38 mins….for only one day! You said that is a sin? I am given have 5.42 mins…... Where can I go wash my sins?- Understand.

The 5.52 mins of the story only you have ideas, sentences 5.57 mins, God never has got that idea. The society 6. 00mins you. As a saint as a sinner. All the rules are created for the harmonious living.Please understand, all the rules are treated, what for? To leave in harmonious way.You will not kill me so that I will not kill you.The both of us will live happily.That is the- basic understanding. The course of time,it has became a law that’s all. So all rules, all regulations are created to live a harmonious happy life, that's all. For the moment you internalise the rules, the moment you take them seriously, beyond the understanding, see as long as you follow the rules with understanding, your life will be happy. When you start following the 6.55 mins…. spirit you start creating-7.00 mins. If you want to go beyond the law, if you want to escape from the law, do only one thing: Drop the spirit catch the 7.07 min, you simply escape from the law.When you catch that, 7.14 mins leaving the spirit, you go beyond the law. You can legally go beyond the law. Whenever you catch the spirit you never fall in guilt. Whenever you catch the letter You fall in -guilt.

There was a small- incident which happened in a South Bharatn monastery. In the Monastery there was a pet cat. There was a cat. That swami used to love that cat very much. He used to take care of the cat. Whenever morning he does Puja, The cat would come and disturb his puja. He would drink the milk, run around, he would create- disturbance 7.55 mins . So one day that swami decided, before starting the puja, he 7.59 mins the disciples. When 8.01 mins comes the cat, catch the cat and cover with a basket then I will start the puja . So they caught the cat and covered it 8.08 mins then he started the Puja.Everyday before starting the Pooja he used to instruct catch the cat. They will catch the cat, cover it in basket the puja will start. By and by, by and by, by and by, one day the master also died And the cat also died. Disciples now are in a big turmoil. Without cat how to do puja?

They thought how to worship, how to do the worship without cat.They sent for a person to get some cat at least from 8.42 mins.They brought the cat , covered with basket 8.44 mins , then puja started. And after a few days they think cat has became a bit difficulty.Every day 8.51 mins ….. new cat! And naturally-they think cat has became a bit difficult.Finally, a disciple said: “You see, he was became 9.02 mins, 9.03 mins age”.” When you can't get a cat, how can you do a puja? Alright, 9.07 mins...stop the puja. Whenever you miss the spirit and 9.30 mins the letter 9.14 mins, you do the -same mistake. So whenever you have a guilt, look in the deep, look in it deeply. You would be catching the letter 9.22 mins leaving the- spirit. Don’t create the spirit. Don't catch the letter 9.30 mins and 9.31 mins.

Master is the finger pointing to the moon. Master, enlightened master his finger pointing to the Moon.If you see the moon you will exactly realize how you get the benefit of a master. What for you go to a master? To see the moon only.Is the finger pointing to the moon?If you see the moon, you're enlightened .You already 9.57 mins achieved 9.58 mins you achieved. But the problem is: You won't see the moon you 10.02 mins his finger an hand. You 10.05 mins his finger an hand. You 10.09 mins his finger an hand When you catch his fingers an hand , naturally you are also Mr moon because you're catching handing, the hand will change.The next generation also will miss the moon.Next generation also will miss the moon. Whenever you catch the spirit you will never create guilt. When you catch the letter you will always have -guilt.

I always tell people: “don't catch Nithyananda, catch Nithya Ananda”. “Catch Nithya Ananda” “catch the spirit”, “catch the energy, not the form”.

I always tell people: “ When you 10.49 mins the Eternal Bliss, Nithya Ananda, you will see Nithya Ananda will be there. “When you stop 10.56 mins, the energy , you will naturally, even if the form is there, you will miss it. You will not have it- in your life. In the chas… in the Vedanta, you see the Rishis are such a courageous people! Rishis are the only people on the planet Earth who declare their 11.15 mins can be 11.17 mins. All Messiahs, all masters, have not accepted that their ways can be updated 11.26 mins.Rishis have declared : “Slotis 11.29 mins can be updated”. There are two kinds of scriptures in Vedanta : Sloti 11.34 mins and Smurti 11.35 mins . Sloti means: the literature it speaks about 11.40 mins... Upanishads, that is the ultimate. There is a second kind of Literature: Smurti, which 11.48 mins way to your life. The Social law. Our Rishis are so bold! They declare: “ Smurti can be updated 11.57 mins .after 11.59 mins ”.

You see, the smurti, smurti means, the 12.03 mins Law. If you catch the 12.06 mins, that only creates a gate. Don't -get caught the day today law. -Understand! An updated smurti , when the software 12.18 mins can be updated why not 12.20 mins smurti?When you stop updating, you stop growing. 12.27 mins is the best 12.28 mins condition for growth. Our Rishis are 12.32 mins... deterred 12.33 mins. Smurtis can be updated. One more thing, where is the rule for this right and wrong tell me? In some place, in some countries, in some religions vegetarianism is a rule. In some other countries, non-veg is the ru is the rule. In some places this is right, In some places, euh, this is wrong 12.58 mins. What is food for somebody is poison for the other person? So the morality is supposed to be based on consciousness not on conscience. If it is based on conscience it is just a skin deep, it is just skin deep.

Please be very clear! Of course I don't say go and do all the mistakes,no. But I tell you, any 13.26 mins……..on understanding not on fear and greed. If it is based on the 13.30 mins…. Concept, you will miss the whole thing.You will miss the-whole thing. I always tell people: “Morality Should be based on consciousness not based on conscience. You see for children you need to tell :”If you don't do this I won’t give you a candy”. “If you do this, I will beat you “

For children it is ok !Based on Fear and greed. But, even after growing , if your morality is based on fear and greed , you’re immature, you're not grown. Stand up , it is time to prove you are a grown-up person. Don't try the same mental setup. It is time that your morality should be based on maturity and consciousness. Not based on Hell and Heaven concept. Not based on, euh,the idea of fear and greed.

How long you can have your morality based on fear and greed?No!It can!Never!So come out . I always tell people:” I don’t believe in conscience, I believe in consciousness. Conscience is a poor substitute for consciousness. Consciousness is

natural conscience is societal.Conscience is given to you by society. If you are born and brought up in a 15.04 mins family Non-veg is a great sin for you. If you are born and brought up in a islam family Non-veg is a usual thing for you.So it is just societal, not natural. So drop all your foolish guilt!Again and again -understand- The very understanding is enough. Do you say: “Swamiji I Understand fire will burn but again and again I have the temptation to put my hand. You don't say that. When you understand fire will burn , you drop, you keep yourself away from fire. -Understand, guilt is just foolishness. And naturally, then keep yourself away from it.

Thank you!
