“subject is to be unclutched; The science of inner bliss.”

subject is to be unclutched; The science of inner bliss. What do I mean by the word, be unclutched? We have two identities; One which we show to the outer world and the other one which we believe as the inner world. The identity which we project to the outer world, how we want society to recognize us; how we want the society to repects us, In Sanskrit we use the word ahankar. The identity which we project to the outer world is ahankar. Usually it will always be a little more than what we are. And the society which we believe in the inner world, as we are, is mamakar. Which will always be less than what we are. Ahankar will always be a little more than what we are. And Mamakar will be always a little less than what we are. Outside we will always be projecting a little more than what we are. Inside we will always be judging a little less than what we are: the superiority complex and the inferiority complex. Ahamkar and mamamkar, these are two identities, identities which you project to the outer world and the identity which you project to the inner world. Our life is the fight between these two worlds. Our life is nothing but the fight between these two worlds. If you are spending your whole energy expanding ahamkar, the identity which you project to the outer world your life become materialistic. If you are spending your whole life chiseling and developing the mamakar, identity which you think is you, your whole life becomes moralistic, suppressing, understand? Working in the outer world with ahamkar, working with the inner world with mamakar, both leads to only more and more suffering, both leads to more and more, depression. Person who works on ahankar, trying to prove trying to develop the identity which he shows to the outer world, ends up in the depression of success, around the age of 40-45, of course if you have lived your life intelligently, you will face the depression of success, means you will have achieved all you wanted to achieve, but not what for you wanted to achieve, but not what for you wanted. Working on ahamkar, leads to materialistic life. People who work on mahamkar, working on what they believe to be them, people who are constantly working on their personality, constantly working creating some identity to feel satisfied, working on the ahamakar , working on mamakar, both will lead to more and more suffering. Both will lead to more and more difficulties, more and more depression more and more suffering. The basic truth is that you are much more than these two identities. You are beyond these two identities, the identity which you project to the outer world, and the identity of which you believe as you. You are beyond these two. This is the basic truth. When you unclutch from these two identities, suddenly you realize you are beyond these two; these two can never bind you. Let me expand on the word uncltuching. What I mean by the word unclutching. Constantly you are connecting all your thoughts and creating shafts in your mind. For example, the headache which happened 10 years ago, the headache which happened 9 years ago, the headache which happened 8 years ago, the headache which happened yesterday, they are all independent experiences which happened in your life. For the sake of memory, or for easy reference sake, you put all these headache experiences in your mind; you store all these memories in one area in your mind. It is archived just for utility, for reference sake. By and by you start believing they are really connected. In the initial level you archive them for easy reference sake. Just like how you file the things in your life. Same way you archive them, you put them in one file and you store, After Sometime you start believing that all those experiences are all connected. The suffering which happened 10 years ago happened for a different reason, different purpose, and different place totally different experience. The suffering which happened 9 years ago, totally different reason, different experience, different reason, the suffering which happened 8 years ago is a different reason, different purpose, different place. Initial for the sake of ease, you archive them in the same place, for easy reference. By and by you start believing they are connected. When you start believing they are connected you create a shaft. If you connect all the painful memories, you create a pain shaft; my life is suffering, my life is pain. You start believing your whole life is a chain of suffering, a long chain of suffering. When you start believing your whole life is suffering you have created a pain shaft, and you are waiting in your life only for painful incidents, so that you can elongate that shaft. You can develop the shaft. One more thing you should understand, whatever you believe, you expand it. If you believe something, you will again and again see that in your life. That is why again and again Vedic rashes say, you create what you want, not you see what is. You create what you want, you see, by seeing you create. What ever you believe you will create it, you will expand it. Once you start believing your life is pain, you are waiting unconsciously for painful incidents to strengthen that belief, that faith, to strengthen your judgment. We don’t usually collect arguments to pass judgments we collect arguments to support our judgments. We never collect arguments to support our judgments. The judgment is ready, we only collect arguments to support it, when you are clear that your life is a pain shaft, a big chain of pains, you are waiting for some more judgments to support your faith, some more judgments to support your belief. A person who believes life is a pain shaft; unconsciously he is creating and adding to the pain shaft. Second thing, whenever you are adding the painful incidents unconsciously, constantly consciously you will be trying to break that shaft. If you believe your whole life is the joyful experiences, usually we don’t, it is very rare, you believe your life is a shaft is a joyful experience, constantly you are in fear, will it continue? You think, will it continue in the same way? If you believe it’s a pain, you do two things; unconsciously gathering more and more incidents and strengthening your faith, and consciously trying to break it, fighting to stop. If you believe it is a joyful chain, the chain is joyful, unconsciously you will be in fear that it will end, and consciously trying to prolong it. Understand these two big dramas we do with ourselves. When you believe it’s a pain shaft, you try to break consciously. When you believe it’s a joy shaft you try to elongate consciously. But the big difficulty, the important thing that we forget is that you can neither break the shaft nor elongate it, because the shaft itself does not exist. The shaft does not exist. You can neither elongate nor break it; you are believing it, when you started archiving all the incidents from your life for the sake of easy reference, by and by you started believing that they are really existentially connected. You connected all the incidents of your life for the sake of utility, easy reference. But after sometime you start believing they are existentially connected to each other. When you start believing that they are existentially connected together you believe your life as a pain shaft or a joy shaft. When you start believing as a pain shaft you try to break it, when you believe it as a joy shaft, you try to elongate it. But one important thing you forget, you can neither break nor elongate because the shaft itself does not exist. It’s only your faith your belief, when you start believing it exists you try to elongate or you try to break. SO many thoughts are flowing in your belief constantly, in your thoughts. Actually if you sit for 10 minutes without editing without judging, just as if the transcribing software is connected to you. Just like that, if the whole thing is transcribed without editing, judging for just ten minutes, try to do that, but don’t show it to anyone else. Try to do that for ten minutes and read what you have written, you will understand all your thoughts, whatever is happening in you is illogical, independent, completely unconnected and unclutched. Try to do this in your house when you are relaxed, just sit, pen down whatever is going on, do not judge or edit. IF you start judging your mind, you will interrupt the natural flow. If you start judging you are teaching your mind to play a hypocritical game with you. Whenever you judge your kids you are teaching them to hide things from you that’s all. There are three ways to do things, one is to do it for yourself, two is to hire somebody, three is to tell your kids not to do it, that’s all, it’ll be done. Do not judge, just see what goes on and pen down, and try to read the paper you will understand your thoughts are illogical, independent, unconnected, and unclutched. You will be sitting here and thinking, I think tomorrow I think I should go to my office, then no no no, I should just wake up and see what is going on…Water bubbles in the fish tank, thoughts are just flowing. If you look a little deep suddenly you will understand by your very nature you are unclutched. By your very nature you are unclutched. There is a gap between one thought and another thought, just like the water bubbles in the fish tank; there is a gap between every bubble. But the gap is too small; you are not able to see with the naked eye, it looks like a continuous stream. IF you look a little deeply you will realize your thoughts, by their very nature they are independent. For example if you see a dog in the street, suddenly you remember your pet you used to play with as a child. Then you will remember your teacher you studied with as a child, then, where your teacher used to stay. If you look at it logically, you will see logically that the dog in street and the teacher are not connected. There is no logical connection, but simply your mind flows, it is simply flowing. If you look a little deep you will understand your thoughts are illogical, independent, unconnected and unclothed. But you can’t live in this wilderness. You can’t live with this natural flow, you need a clear cut idea, you need a clear cut idea about everything. SO you pick up your thoughts and you connect them, the way in which you wanted. If you believe life is a joy you pick up all the joyful thoughts and you connect them. If you believe that your life is a pain, you pick up all the painful thoughts and you connect them and create a shaft. What ever you believe those thoughts you pick up and create a shaft. If you see as it is what is going on, it will be an illogical mixture of pain, joy and everything. You can’t even make a percentage, understand, what is going on. If you look a little deeply it won’t even be logical. You can’t even logically make a percentage of what is related to pain or joy. You can’t even make a percentage because the thoughts that are related to pain or joy the depth will be totally different. You can’t make any logical statements; you can’t come to any logical conclusions. As such which is happening is completely illogical, independent, unconnected and unclutched. For your easy reference you start archiving them, all your painful memories, all the painful experiences you collect them and create a shaft. All the joyful experiences, all the joyful memories, all the joyful thoughts, you connect them and create a joy shaft. Once you start believing the pain shaft or joy shaft, you are in trouble. Naturally you will try to elongate or break the shaft. You can neither elongate nor break because the shaft does not exist. By your very nature you are unclutched. You need to understand an important thing; you don’t need to renounce a thing. People come and ask me, Swamiji, should I renounce to achieve enlightenment? I tell them, don’t renounce what you have, just renounce what you don’t have, that’s enough. Renounce what you don’t have, that’s enough. Renounce what you don’t have. You have so many things that you don’t have actually, so many of your fantasies, so many of your fears. Fear itself is nothing but negative fantasy. Negative fantasy is fear. We are living with so many things which we don’t have. Our fantasies, our fears our worry, so many things we are living with which we don’t have. Just renounce what you don’t have that’s enough. Whatever you have, just live with it. This shaft with which we are living, we don’t have, joy shaft or pain shaft. Constantly we believe that things are connected, things are completely logical. When you believe that your mind is logical, when you believe that your mind has got its own logical, you have created the first original sin for yourself. That is the original sin. Not the poor guy eating an apple, that is not a sin. Believing your mind is logic is the first sin. Understand by your very nature you are unclutched. By your very nature you are unconnected. You don’t need to renounce. Actually you can’t even hold. People come and tell me I have so much of depression swamiji, I don’t know how to get rid of it. I tell them, just try to hold it, you can’t. For half an hour try and sit and hold the depression, you cant. Try your best and sit and meditate on depression. Suddenly you will come back and tell me that you are not able to meditate on it. By your very nature you are unclutched. Until the earlier thought is renounced you can’t have a new thought. The fact that a new thought is happening in you proves that the other thought has been renounced. Fortunately you can’t have two thoughts at a time. Even if you think you are schizophrenic, you can’t have two thoughts at the same time. All these ideas, the unconscious, the split personality, the schizophrenia, all these ideas are the modern day sin. See in those days the priests created the concept of sin to create guilt in you and rule you. The same way the psychologist, psychiatrists created unconscious, split personality, schizophrenia, all those things, understand these are all the modern day terms to exploit you, nothing else. Maybe it looks very shocking for you because you always believed there is something called the unconscious, there is something called split personality , there is something called schizophrenia, all those things. OF course very difficult for a logical man to believe, to understand, life flows in a total different dimension. Just look a little deep inside and you will understand, the very fact that you are having new new thoughts means the earlier thoughts have been renounced. The only difficult thing, it’s just like emails, you trash all your emails but the difficult thing is your pick up your emails from the trash. Every moment the thoughts are being renounced by you, by your very nature. New thought appearing means the old thought has been renounced. But even after renouncing you try to pick up the thoughts from the dust bin and try to create a new shaft. It’s like you feel that some valuable thoughts have been dropped in the dust bin, so you pick up some thoughts here and there. You pick up these thoughts from the dust bin, and put near your bed and put on a little scent (laughter) and keep it a little nice. You try to decorate it. You try to pick up things from your dustbin and create a shaft. All you need to do is few things; First, clear understanding that you are creating a shaft, shaft of pain, or shaft of joy and trying to fight with it, by either trying to elongate or by trying to break. Second thing, you don’t even have to unclutch yourself, by your very nature if you stop creating a shaft you are unclutched. You don’t need to unclutch. People come and ask me, swamiji, how long does it take to teach meditation? It takes only two words, be unclutched. To teach what is not meditation takes one or two years for me. To teach what is meditation takes only one minute. You don’t need to learn meditation; all you need to do is stop creating the shaft. Constantly you are creating the shaft. The pain shaft or the joy shaft. And you think your mind is flowing with certain logic. When you stop creating shaft, suddenly you will realize you are unclutched by your very nature. Immediately the moment people hear this truth they feel shaken, “then what will happen to my ahamkar if I unclutch? What will happen to my properties, my wealth, my name and fame, what all I created based on the ahamkar, based on the outer world? And what will happen to my mamakar, my holy personality which I created by my penance, discipline, mediation and all those things? What will happen to ahamkar and my mamakar if I am unclutched by my very nature? When you have too much of a vested interest, when you have too many things done based on ahamkar and mamakar, it is very difficult to understand you are unclutched by your very nature. Try your best to create something based on ahamkar and feel fulfilled, you will never. You will never. Try your best to create something on your mamakar and feel fulfilled, you will never. There is a story of Brahma and Vishnu searching on the head and foot of Shiva, it happened according to the stories it happened in my native place, raunchily, spiritual nerve centre. I call that place a spiritual incubator. Just like premature babies need an incubator to supply air and all the basic things. For an enlightened being to land on the planet earth, you need a spiritual incubator to protect and help the enlightened beings, and allow the whole expansion to happen. The story says, Brahma has to find the head and Vishnu is asked to find the feet of Shiva. See the story is beautiful, it has a beautiful meaning, who is Brahma? The wife of saraswati, who is Vishnu? Husband of Laxshmi, wealth. The story says that Brahma started searching the head, the sahasiris. Vishnu started searching for the feet, Vishnu came back after some time and accepted I am not able to find please forgive me. And Brahma came back and realized he will not be able to find, so he cut off a flower to give a false witness that he touched the head of Shiva with a flower, so he brought the flower from there. You need to understand the story: Vishnu is the embodiment of wealth, Braham of intellect- Ahamkar or mamakar; neither by wealth or intellect you can achieve enlightenment, that’s the truth of the story. Neither by wealth or intellect you can achieve enlightenment. One important thing, if you dig in the line of wealth, ahamkar, you will get frustrated, you will understand , you will face the depression of success and really you will become humble, you will fall you will understand. But if you dig in the line of intellect you will never accept you are defeated. IF you travel in the line of ahankar in the outer world at least at one point you will understand, you will experience the depression of success. You will say enough, let me rest. I understand that enlightenment can never be achieved in this line. Nut the person who travels in the line of mamkar, the line of intellect, not only does he never achieve, he will not even be able to understand that he can not achieve. The intellect the ego becomes so sharp, so subtle; he brings false claims and false techniques that he has achieved it. Those false claims are only those false flowers, the false witness. The person who travels ahamkar in the outer world, who projects his identity in the outer world, the person who travels in mamakar, who projects his identity in the inner world, both will not be able understand the truth, if you have spend too much of your time in making money, or you have spent too much of your time in believing you are a holy person, see most of our so called spiritual practices are done to make your ego strong, to give you that feel good feeling, almost all those self development techniques are done to give you the feel good feeling, nothing but that feel good feeling. First thing to understand your self cant be developed because it doesn’t exist. Try your best; of course I have conducted hundreds of self development programs, with that authority I am telling you. With that clarity I am telling you. I can give you some simple tips and techniques to develop your own self development program. All you need to do is, the person who is attending the program should feel good for two or three days, that’s all. You are successful, nothing else is necessary. There is a best seller, great book: How to win friends and influence people, how to stop worrying and start living. You should understand one important fact, next to the bible his books are printed, next to the bible his books are sold. Means? Second prophet practically. Have any of you read his books? How to stop worrying and start living: constantly he talks about how to stop the suicidal tendencies. That’s the first book. In the second book, How to win friends and influence people, he constantly teaches you how to live happily with your wife. You will be shocked to hear, he himself committed suicide because he was not able to live with his wife. No this is the truth. Understand how easy it is to create self development programs and self development books. Its very easy, just three tips: write what you can’t practice; and write it in such a way that you will only talk about the problem, problem, problem, and you never give the solution (laughter). Just these three tips nothing else, you can become the self development guru. Nothing else is necessary. Write what you can’t practice, and try to complicate as much as possible, and never give the solution. These three are more than enough. You see your self can’t be developed because it does not exist. If you have done enough of spiritual practice you will understand, if you have done enough of techniques to keep you in one shaft, either be verbalizing or visualizing. Verbalization means all mantras. Visualization means all meditating on forms. If you have tried you will understand the truth of what I am expressing. If you have not tried, please try. If you have tried enough, understand this truth, by your very nature you, just because of your very nature you can’t create and connect a shaft. I have seen people who chant mantras for 30 or 40 years and they come and ask me, swamiji, how to concentrate on mantra, how long will it take to make my mind settle down and focus on the mantra? I tell them, i'm not sure how long it will take, but not surely in this life. (Laughter) Understand, it is very difficult to connect and keep on one line. You are fortunate that you can’t be clutched. You are fortunate; you should feel fortunate that you are unclutched because you can’t be in bondage. If you worked too much on the outer world creating more and more wealth, that you are unclutched by your very nature comes as a big shock. You think, if I am unclutched then who will pay my bills? Who will take care of my house, who will take care of my life, or my day to day activities? And the second thing, if I am unclutched then what will happen to all the spiritual experiences I did? If I am unclutched then what for did I do all the meditation, so many techniques, why did I do so much of tapas? Why did I control myself? What have I done? What am I doing? Then the whole thing is useless. We have a big problem. If we understand, and accept the truth that we are unclutched both the work on the ahamkar and whatever work you did on the mamakar all become useless. All the work you did to establish mamakar and all the work you did to establish ahamkar is useless. Whether you believe it or not, it is useless. Nothing can be done about it. You can strongly believe again and again, cover yourself, you can do whatever you want, but whether you believe it or not, understand it or not, by your very nature you are unclutched. You are unclutched. You need to understand only these two things, one; the identity which you are showing to the outer world and inner world, both are not what you are. You are much more than these two. Second you don’t even need to renounce these two identities, by your very nature you are unclutched from these two identities. If you constantly believe you are connected to these two, you may start working to identity with them. If you want to disconnect from these two, you may start working to unclutch from them. Both are not necessary, because you neither need to strengthen nor unclutch because by your very nature you are unclutched. The moment you decide to stand up you renounce the thought of sitting. The moment you decide to walk out, you renounce the thought of sitting and listening. The very fact that new thoughts are appearing in you proves the very fact that old thoughts are being renounced. So you don’t even need to renounce your thoughts, you don’t even need to renounce your identities, because the identities which you are carrying are not you. When you understand suddenly there is so much space available to you. The moment you understand you are beyond these two identities the tremendous inner healing starts happening in you. You start accepting yourself. The moment you understand you can’t develop yourself, you achieve the ultimate self development. You achieve the ultimate self development. Someone goes to ramana maharishi, and says, Bhagawan maharishi, the great enlightened master, he asks him, tell me some spiritual practice to do. He says, meditate. After two years he comes back and he says, bhagawan, I am not able to meditate. Bhagawan says you have achieved the results of meditation. He says, I don’t understand, I tell you that I am not able to meditate and you tell me that I have achieved the result of meditation. Bhagawan says, understanding that you are not able to meditate is the result of meditation. Let me tell you an important business secret; techniques are given to people to make them understand that they are not able to practice them. It’s very shocking but the truth. Techniques are given to people to make them understand, they are not able to practice. Of course, I myself have given techniques and meditations to over 1 million people in my three years of ministry; the last four and half years a started my mission, three and a half years I started the ashram, last year and a half a started taking classes. More than one million have been initiated. Let me be very clear, techniques are given to people so that they understand that they can’t practice. Suddenly you will start realizing there is something deeper. Ramana Maharishi says beautifully, you are asked to meditate to make you understand you can’t. You will suddenly realize that the more you try the understanding that you can’t, will go much deeper. All you need to do is understand this truth. For spiritual practice or whatever words you may use, understanding that you are much more than two identities. Understand that you are not clutched, that’s enough. Just do not create a shaft that’s enough. Then we start asking, how will I do my job, how will I take care of my things, will I not just lie down in my bed? Understand, the moment I say these things, the first question people ask, if I am unclutched, why should I go to my job? I ask why should you not go to your job? The moment you say that, it means you have a little hatred or a little vengeance against the job. That is why the moment you get some excuse you want to escape from that. You are expressing your anger your violence against your routine, nothing else. I always tell people, alright, don’t do anything, just be unclutched, don’t do anything, how many days will you be lying in your bed? Ten days, until your tamas gets exhausted. See you have a certain amount of tamas in you; tamas, rajas, sattvas. Until your tamas gets exhausted you will lie there, but after that what will you do? Naturally you will start working, you will start moving. Do not be afraid; do not be afraid that if you are unclutched you will not do your daily routine. I tell you, what you think as you is not necessary to run your day to day life. This is the basic truth. What you think as you is not necessary to run your day to day life. This hurts. This truth hurts us. See, if somebody is happy independent of us, we can’t tolerate it, it is too much. Constantly we feel we are needed. That is why we project our sufferings, so that we feel important. What you think as you is not necessary to run your day to day life. Let me just give the jist of these few truths. Maybe we will analyze these few truths and try to internalize them. Whenever we question, we start internalizing these truths. Whenever we question, we start to internalize. Whenever some words are uttered as a lecture, we never allow them inside. But if we question and then answer then we try to internalize. Let me give the jist. First thing; you are much more than these two identities which you are carrying in your life; the identity which you show to the outer world and the identity which you show to yourself. Second thing; you don’t need to unclutch, you are already unclutched. Third thing; all you need to do is stop creating the shaft, constantly you are creating shafts. Constantly you are referring your past experiences of the same kind and connecting them and constantly creating an idea. Constantly you are creating an idea about everything by connecting it to some shaft you are already having. You are already having ten, twelve shafts; pain, joy, painful joy, joyful pain, and so many different shafts. Whenever you see something that goes on you just pick up the right shaft and connect them. All you need to do is stop connecting and creating shafts. These three truths, these three great truths are what I wanted to present to you today. Maybe we will analyze these three truths by the question and answer. Q: What then is the purpose of life?

A: This is a nice question. The purpose of life is just joy ma. See you always think it has to have a utility. Two kinds of society have been created. One believes that man will work; he can be enslaved only if he is constantly taught that he is not enough. He can be made to work only if he is run by fear and greeThe other group believes man will express his energy if he is already fulfilled. The eastern rishis believe man will express his energy maximum if he believes he is already full. That is the first truth you are taught in the eastern mysticism, by the eastern mystics. You are full. When the whole is removed from the whole, the whole remains as the whole. You are asked to express yourself just out of your fullness. You are not made to run based on fear and greed. But the western society the western social system is made to believe man will work only by fear and greed. That is why you are taught from your colleges, from your universities, that you are not full. That life has got some utility. Understand, life has got no utility. It has got purpose, but no utility. Utility is live the life and get that product. Purpose is you enjoy the life and express the purpose. Purpose is totally different. Utility is totally different. In utility constantly you are hypnotized; you are not enough unto yourself. Constantly you are taught you are not enough. But with the eastern rishis, constantly you are taught you are enough. You are enough. Understand. The Bharatn lifestyle, the Vedic lifestyle, 10 000 years of research and development with more than at least 10 000 000 inner scientists. Inner scientists, full timers who are working on the inner science. 10 000 years of inner research and development, at least ten million inner scientists, people following the technology and strength of the Vedic culture, and only 0.6 % registered psychiatric patients. 0.6% depression. Understand, 10 000 years of research and development, 10 000 000 inner scientists, 10 000 000 inner science laboratories. At least one crore ashrams and places where gatherings happen. Not holiday religion, not weekend religion, no. Not weekend congregation. Everyday congregation. One crore. So 10 000 years of inner science research and development and 10 000 000 inner scientists, and inner science laboratories, the depression rate is 0.6%. You may say the depression rate is more in Bharat, only the medicines are not available. No, the facilities are available. I have traveled all of Bharat, do not think Bharat has still the empty plates and riding on the elephant or swinging from tree to tree, or riding with the snakes, no. 0.6% is the depression, registered psychiatric patients. This is one side, the eastern Vedic culture. The other side, science, just 400 years old. The western lifestyle and I wanted all of you to understand, 66% of Americans are taking some sort of psychiatric drugs and anti depressants. If three are sitting and talking 2 are psychiatric patients. I am talking, 66 %. People believe that only through fear and greed man will express his energy, see the outcome, 66% depression. People who believe he will only express if he is full; 0.6% depression. Even if you see the crime rate of our people, it is barely negligible. The population of 1 billion people living in such a small land, one billion. Of course even the little bit that you see is because of cultural invasion. I strongly believe it is because of cultural invasion. If you understand that you are full and express your fullness, it will be purely out of compassion. You will attract more and more joyful things experiences in your life. If you believe strongly you are not enough unto yourself and start running based on fear and greed. You will attract only more fear and greed persons, incidents. One more thing, what you believe you will reproduce, by your very nature. Anything, if it has to survive, it should reproduce itself. IF you believe your life is running only on fear and greed, you will reproduce that same thing in everybody. You will reproduce that same fear and greed on everybody. One more thing, if you have lost self respect, you think you can run only on fear and greed. You forgot you can run gracefully, you can live gracefully. See if you are a child and you say, hey do this and I will give you candy, if you don’t do this I will beat you, if you manage a child based on fear and greed, ok. But only after 80, if you should be handled after the fear and greed means you are mentally retarded. You have not grown. A child can be handled with fear and greed, but you don’t need fear and greed. When you ask the question, what is utility, you are asking based on fear and greed. If you see the social system the crime rate and everything, the society based on ****** and the society based on more and more and more, what next, what next, see the depression rate you will understand. And I tell you the more I travel outside of Bharat, the more I feel more love and respect for this culture for this tradition. Sometimes people tell me I am too fanatical about this tradition about this Vedic culture swamiji, I am not able to help myself, even the simple rules, people ask me why do wear rudrakshe, why do you wear this kum kum, why do you wear all these things, I tell you the simple things like these beads, and this kum kum and all, our masters have developed after 10 000 years of research and development. Nothing is done without proper research and de v elopement. They spent their lives, and used their bodies as the inner science laboratories. And did this vast research and development. And I tell you if you just understand the lifestyle based on this p******* your whole life will understand its purpose, and the idea of utility will simply drop. If you just analyze, how will you define the word utility by your leader, that’s all. And where is the question of utility? It is utility for him, not for you. For whom you are running? For him, not for you. See currency is beautiful, needed for life. But that is too poor substitute for your conscious explosion. It’s a poor substitute for your conscious expansion. Beautiful to maintain your body, maintain your mind. Maintain the lifestyle, food clothing basic things, ok, wonderful, but I tell you, there is something much more, you see this fantasy, this idea of a certain kind of lifestyle is put into your head. This fantasy is put into your head, this kind of a western lifestyle is put into your head to make you run constantly that’s all. It’s a much planned conspiracy; 6 billion dollars is spent every year by the western media, to promote the western lifestyle so that their products can be sold all over the world, to promote their market. It’s a pure marketing strategy. You are constantly taught about that consumerist lifestyle so that you will start buying those products, enjoying those things. It is a marketing strategy. Your life is too big to be wasted in somebody’s marketing strategy. Your body can’t be used as somebody’s income source. He is teaching all sorts of ideas; see your software is programmed by them, so that your hardware will be spent fulfilling their vested interest, that’s all. Let me clarify one thing, kids should not be handled by fear and greed, only when you don’t have the patience to explain you use fear and greed. This is not ok. See only when you have fear and greed you will naturally create fear and greed in everyone else. Then you should understand. Whom you think as your leader, do you thin he has gone beyond fear and greed? No, then he is expressing fear and greed that’s all. Whatever frequency you live you will attract the people of the same frequency so that you will feel very comfortable, so you feel very strengthened. So naturally if you are in the fear and greed frequency than naturally you will create the same type of fear and greed people, that’s all.

Q; A; Painful memories get registered because you need to learn lessons. You need to update yourself, you need to develop yourself. Maybe for that reason you start recording the painful memories. When you refer to them again and again, it becomes a painful memory. Memories that you record in your system is not true. You record only what you need. Second thing, you don’t need to renounce them, whenever you try to renounce them you strengthen the memory. It’s like an ayervedic doctor telling his patient, to drink this medicine without remembering a monkey. Can he drink without remembering the monkey? No. Same way you don’t need to create a law I should not refer to my memory, it will simply disappear in the next moment. For example the moment you decide to stand up, you renounce the decision to sit. Am I right? The moment you decide to stand up you renounce the decision of sitting. You are constantly renouncing. Even your painful memories, are strengthened by trying to renounce them. They are strengthened by trying to renounce them. People come and ask me, constantly I repeat the positive affirmations, I should stop smoking, I should stop smoking, it’s not working, why swamiji? All these creative visualizations they all create more and more trouble. Because the very word, I should stop smoking, the very word smoking is contradicting. When you decide I should get rid of the headache, constantly you are remembering the headache. So all you need to do, whenever the memories raise, it will disappear. Have a glass of water. The moment you decide to have a glass of water your greed has disappeared, your fear has disappeared. But you say it comes back thought, what to do? YOur faith in it is what brings it back, that is the basic problem. See you say it comes back, and one more thing, if it comes back it goes also. Why don’t you celebrate those moments which it left you? Why do you constantly remember the moments it comes back? People come and ask me, a young man, swamiji, I am suffering too much because of my lustful thoughts and fantasies, what to do? I told him; just have a cup of coffee. He said, what are talking swamiji? Unless the thought has left you, you can’t have a cup of coffee. You can’t have the thought have having a cup of coffee unless the lustful thoughts have left you. Then why again are you bringing it back? It has already left you. You ask me, how can it be so simple swamiji? It is simple. Constantly you are taught that it is not so simple. It is simple. If you really understand that it is so simple. You see it is against my vested interest, that is the problem. Constantly people are telling me it is not so easy. But I am telling you literally it is so easy. Nothing needs to be done. A simple understanding. People come and tell me, I have constant fear of death, what should I do? I tell them come and sit, have a cup of coffee. When they are having a tea I ask them, what happened to the death fear? For that moment, it was not there swamiji. All you need to do is just have tea. You see, one elderly person, one scholar, one pundit, came to me and said swamiji I am constantly searching for enlightenment, for the last 35 years, please teach me meditation and enlightenment. I sat down and started talking with him, asked him about his family, from where he is from and those types of things. He was with me for four hours; he did not even remember the question again. So just remember the depth of the thoughts. You see, all your negativity, has only one power, your faith on them that’s all. Your faith in them, whether it is your mind or your ego, or whatever all negativity has only one power, your faith in it that’s all. Understand it’s a simple game, that’s all. You do not need to work for unclutching. Just do not clutch and do not create a shaft. People ask me again and again I fail when I try to unclutch swamiji. I tell them, why are you connecting your past failure with your present failure? When you connect all the past failures, you create one more word. Failure. The failure which happened 9 years ago, the failure that happened 8 years ago, the failure that happened yesterday are independent incidents. Why do you connect all of them and create the next experience also? Just relax and stop connecting and suddenly you will see such a deep inner healing happening in you, such a deep peace happening in you. Suddenly you will see you have dropped out of the war, the constant running. Just relax. I tell you when you become a drop out, when you drop out of this war, when you drop from this whole game, suddenly you realize the whole thing is just a psycho drama happening. Because you are constantly supporting it, constantly you are creating these shafts. Let’s spend a few minutes unclutching. I will give you a few tips on this unclutching and you can just try how this unclutching works on you. If you have done some techniques already, you will see that this technique will straight away bring you to your inner space. Just one year ago I started taking pictures of the mind of people, how did I do it? I asked people to pen down their thoughts for 11 minutes. The Vedic culture believes that the mind does a complete circle in 11 minutes. Without editing and collecting the photographs of minds in different languages, in different countries, I started analyzing, please understand, I took maybe 6 months and seventy groups, each group maybe 1050 people , I started analyzing to study actually this I did more to study the market, because what do we need to deliver, what exactly is the problem? Unless we know what is the problem, how will we, because 10 000 years of research and development, 10 000 000 inner scientists, 10 000 000 inner science laboratories, the fruit of the research and development, the product and fruits of yoga is being enjoyed by somebody else. Neither the economical income created by yoga and mediation, nor the power comes back to Bharat, which are the roots. At least the Chinese arts which are promoted all over the world, at least the 40 -50 % of revenue goes back to china. The Japanese arts which are promoted all over the world at least 30-40 percent goes back to Japan. But the wealth created by yoga and meditation, only 2% comes back to Bharat, because we did not market it. Of course just by the strength of the Vedic culture, it does not need the marketing department. By the power of its own strength it is spreading, not because of us, but in spite of us, it is spreading. Let me be very open, we have 30 centers in 30 countries. I am just a small boy from an Bharatn village, if I can go around and spread in 30 countries, it proves the strength of this culture. Strength of this very truth. That is why we do not need the marketing department. When I started studying, just to know a little deeply, understand the western society based on fear and greed, I categorized their mental set up based on three; thoughts based on fear, thoughts based on greed, and thoughts which are self healing; self healing means there are thoughts in your mind, which gives you again the life, the hope, which puts back your energy. Something like; everything is Maya. Then what is there to suffering? Its ok, God will take care. I think my Guru will guide me. Some self healing thoughts, which again puts you back to life, which again gives you the energy. This I call as the self healing thoughts. When we analyzed, please understand, a pure western culture, a man who is born and brought up and lives the western culture lifestyle, more than 70% of his thoughts are based on fear and greed, more than 20% are illogical, means completely the statement is not full, not full meaning, only 10% are self healing thoughts. But a basic and normal middle class Bharatn, who is not enlightened, who is not a swami, who is not a regular meditator, all he knows is a little Ramakrishna name, when we took his thoughts, more than 60% were self healing thoughts, and only 2 or 3 % based on fear and greed, and the rest were illogical. Understand the difference. I am not saying that there is nobody that is not frustrated that everybody is happy, I am not saying that. We really need to appreciate; we can really applaud the great efforts of our great Vedic rishis. We really need to acknowledge the great system which kept the whole thing alive for the last 10 000 years See try to convince your son or daughter to attend one half an hour ritual or meditation. And you know how difficult it is, try and you will understand that our masters have created a system or an inspiration not only they radiated, they were able to reproduce in the next generation and they constantly reproduced for further generations. Whatever problem we have I feel very strongly is form the cultural invasion, so these are the few things I wanted to express. Now we will spend a few minutes unclutching. Just close your eyes. Just do not connect those words. Whatever words are rising in you just let them rise. Just do not connect them with any other thought. Just don’t create shaft. Just unclutch. If you feel bored, or if your mind asks what to do, just unclutch from that thought. Do not even connect with that thought. Just sit, be unclutched. If your mind connects with a thought, just unclutch. Unclutch from both the identities. Do not create, maintain, or destroy thoughts. Don’t maintain, don’t create, and don’t destroy. Om Nithyanandum You can open your eyes. (Does demonstration of the bird on the stick.)
