“Let’s enter into the next Sutra.”

Let’s enter into the next Sutra.

Touching eyeballs as a feather, lightness between them opens into heart and there permeates the Cosmos.

This is the Dhyana Sutra. I can say even in the Dhyana Sutra, very powerful technique. Dhyana Sutra for the person who has really grown in sensitivity, who is really sensitive.

Understand, unfortunately the society does not want sensitive people. It wants labourers. It wants dry intellectuals. If you are a dry intellectual, you will be paid everywhere. Professors, it wants dry people, but it does not want you to retain sensitivity in your life because sensitive people difficult to handle. They will be free, understand!

When I say sensitive I want you to understand the meaning clearly, not weak. People think sensitive means being weak and being open to everything, no! Sensitive means being strong, being aware of everything, not being open to everything. Being open means something like a anybody can invade you, anybody can bulldose you. No, that is not sensitivity. Actually if you are not sensitive, anybody can bulldose you, because you will not be sensitive, somebody is bulldozing you. Only after they enter your bedroom, you will suddenly wake up and say, ‘Oh, I think they entered my house.’ But they came and did their job and went away long before.

Real sensitive person will be aware, will be aware. Means, you will know exactly what is coming, and you will know when to say yes and when to say no. Unable to say ‘no’ does not mean sensitivity. That is egoistic. Understand, you may be having other way idea, no. Person is not able to say no is egoistic, it is ego. Only egoistic idiot will not be able to say no when he can’t. See, having the clarity when I can say yes, I will say, when I can’t say yes, I will say no. This is a clarity. This is sensitivity. You see, the person who is that sensitive will always say yes to the right thing, always will say no to the wrong thing. But the problem is, people who think themself as sensitive, they will say no to Master. No, I have seen, many idiots who say no to Master they think they are sensitive or they think they are very intelligent. No, but they will say yes to all the useless things. When I use the word sensitivity, being aware and ready to be spontaneously reacting or responding. A spontaneous person will not be closed. He will be completely sensitive and open.

Here, this technique is for people who are sensitive, who are aware, who are open to respond spontaneously; who is not having a fixed, clear cut ideas and frames, who is not working with those kind of mental frame, who is open, who is available.

Let Me describe the technique. Touching eyeballs as a feather. Lightness between them opens into heart and there permeates the Cosmos. I can say, Mahadeva is powerfully putting you back to your centre. During waking state, your energy, you, what you think as you, your identity will be centered on the Ajna Chakra, eyes. That is why, 80% of the connection, relationship between you and the world happens through eyes. Whenever I want to tell people ‘be still’, I will just tell them, ‘close your eyes.’ The moment they close the eyes, they automatically become still. When they come and talk to Me, I can’t tell, ‘close your mouth’, I just tell them, ‘close your eyes’ (everyone laugh). No, really and I have seen automatically they will close their mouth. Telling ‘close your mouth’ looks very disrespectful, feels very hurting the ego. If I just say, ‘close your eyes’, without even their knowledge, they will just close their mouth also. They will close everything. Because the relationship happens only through eyes, understand, only through eyes.

So, in the dream state, your identity exists in the throat centre, Vishuddhi Chakra. That is why, unless you relax your throat, neck, you can’t fall asleep. Even lying down, keep the neck straight, you will only feel uncomfortable and trying to fall asleep. You will never be able to fall asleep. If you relax the neck, even if you are sitting, you will be sleeping. That you know, all of you. (everyone laugh) So, that there is no need for…

All our schools and universities train you how to sit and sleep, or how to keep your eyes open and not be attentive or aware of what is going on in the front. No, really I have seen, eyes will be wide open, mouth also will be wide open and they will be in samadhi( Swamiji acts, everyone laugh). Really! Because of My experience in last five years with people, all kinds of people, I have seen almost all possible types of sleepings, all possible variety of sleepings. And the moment you relax your neck, whatever you may be doing, you will fall asleep. You may not go to the deep sleep but, you will fall into the dream state. Because this is the area, the moment it is relaxed, it just automatically pulls, attracts your identity. Your identity will come and stay in this(shows throat). In the deep sleep state, it goes to Anahata chakra. Understand, in waking state- Ajna, in dream state-Vishuddhi, deep sleep- Anahata.

One important thing, when you are falling beyond these three state, Turiya, it goes to Anandagandha. It goes deeper than Anahata, Anandagandha chakra. Means below the Anahata, above the Manipuraka. This is the way, the consciousness, the identity travels, your identity travels. Here, Mahadeva is giving a wonderful idea with intensity, with sankalpa, putting the identity back to Anandagandha. Understand, consciously if you put your identity back into Anahata, automatically you will fall into Anandagandha. Even if you push upto the level of Anahata, means consciously falling into the silence, you will automatically fall into Anandagandha.

That is why, understand one important thing, many people ask Me, ’Why do I fall asleep during meditation?’ Because you have to cross sleep and reach the meditation. It is on the way and you feel like you reached. Because always either you know this or that. See, either you know Ajna or Vishuddhi, maximum Anahata, but Anahata you will not be aware. You never know Anandagandha, deeper than that. That is why, on the way you feel, ’Oh, this place is very good. Why to travel too much, now I am also feeling little tired. Let me have a little rest, then we will start,’ and that is the way you end up. On the way, resting time naturally you miss the purpose or the idea.

There is a wonderful story. In the young age, all the kids will learn this story in the school. There was one guy who was selling the hat. He will walk from his village to the market. On the way, he was resting under a tree with a basket of hats and all the monkeys which was on the tree, they all came and caught hold of one, one hat and when he woke up he saw there was no hat left and, he just danced and monkeys also danced. He just jumped and monkeys also jumped. He threw the hat and all the monkeys threw the hat and he collected all the hats and went away and sold. This is the only part story you know.

There is one more version. There is a second edition. Anyhow, he went and sold the hat and he died. His son also came and his son did the same job of selling the hats and he also died. The third generation, grandson- that guy came. He is also in the same business of selling the caps. He makes the caps, he is going to the same market and he is resting under the same tree. As usual, the same way, all the monkeys have picked up his caps and he wakes up. He sees all the monkeys are wearing. Now he thinks he knows the technique, he knows the technique. He just jumps, all the monkeys are jumping. He dances, all the monkeys are dancing. He throws the cap. Suddenly he sees one monkey which was there without cap, he came and just took that cap and ran away. Then this guy started shouting, ‘No,no, this is not fair. How come you guys are now changing the game? When I throw the cap back, you are supposed to throw all the caps. That is the way you did with my grandfather.’ And beautifully that leader of the monkey group says, ‘You did not learn from your grandfather but, we learnt from our grandfather.’ (everyone laugh) Understand, ‘you did not learn from your grandfather, we learnt from our grandfathers.’

Anyhow, if you sleep on the way this is the drama you will go through. At Least now, learn. Stop sleeping on the way when you are travelling. The Vishuddhi is like a tree. It will really feel like, why not rest but if you rest, sometime you will lose the cap, sometime you may lose the head. You do not know which one you will lose.

Mahadeva is giving a very powerful technique. Just through intense intention, Satya sankalpa, understand, there are different sankalpas. Sankalpa which does not have your conscious support behind is a mithya sankalpa, waste intention, useless, energy waste, time waste. Sankalpa which has your intention, your conscious support behind is satya sankalpa. If you have satya sankalpa, means ready to go end to the experience of Enlightenment; Courage to go through, desire, intense desire to get Enlightenment, courage to go through the process, then, this technique is for you.

Let Me describe. Mahadeva says, ‘touching eyeballs as a feather.’ He is asking to touch the eyeballs means the place where your consciousness resides during waking state. After closing the eyes, just touch the eyeballs as a feather. You can even use the feather. One important thing is, the feather should not bend. If it bends, naturally you are putting too much pressure. Too much pressure will not work here. You need to put right pressure. It is like a, literally it is like a playing the veena, neither less pressure nor more pressure. If it is a less, then you will not be able to create sound. If the strings are too tight, if the pressure is more, again it will break. You need to give exact pressure. Actually, this balancing itself will take at least one month. Balancing actually what Mahadeva does, how much intensity you have on your identity and how much intensity you have on the world. See, your personality, your being, shares half energy on your ego, half energy on your world. The I carries half energy, mine carries half energy. If the mine carries more energy, you will be completely materialistic. Working, working, working, you will never like vacation, workaholic. You will die by working. Means the mine, your wealth carries more of your attention than you yourself.

I have seen people, in the beginning they will start working for wealth and after that, even if they have wealth, they will not know how to enjoy and they will be continuously working, because it has become a habit. They will just create wealth. Initially they will start creating wealth to enjoy. After sometime, the idea to enjoy will disappear. Just wealth, wealth, wealth, what for? Just to leave everything and die!

Too much of energy invested on the mine, and if the person is too much invested on mine, he will create wealth, he will not enjoy. If he is too much invested on the I, he will be egoistic but will not have anything around him, the empty poets, or not even poets; Poets will be very sensitive, empty intellectual,s will have a tall talk. They know how to talk for 20 hours but they will not even know how to be practical to raise their next meal. The I centered, mine centered. Mahadeva is here giving a technique to balance a person who is exactly balancing the I centered and mine centered will become enlightened.

Balancing between I and mine is what Mahadeva is teaching here because, your eyes are representative of I. That is why it is called eye and, your hands are representative of the energy towards the world, the energy which you put towards the world, your hands represent. The energy which you put on you, your eyes represent. When you balance both of them, kind of a connection starts happening between two. The energy balance between I and mine will happen. You will fall into the center.

Understand! I can say, this is one of the powerful technique to awaken the kundalini shakti, the potential energy which you are carrying. It is one of the powerful tantric technique, not only I Myself practiced in My life, I have seen people who practice this technique enter into the higher consciousness very quickly. Because it needs lot of attention, you are bound to be experiencing the truth. It’s like a, if your place is near to the city, you have to be legal just like we. Whatever we do, city will know. We have to be completely compliant with the city’s needs.

Same way, this technique is a foolproof technique. In this technique, everything has to be in shape, because the technique itself is so powerfully designed. When you are touching the eyeballs like a feather. Understand, lightness between them opens. You should be touching but you should not be touching. It is like your fingers should be very close but not pressing it. If you balance and just put your hands slowly, slowly, slowly, you will see it takes lot of time because your hands will be shaking first and either you will touch strongly or lightly or you may not touch. By the time you balance, at least 20 minutes per day you have to balance. You have to try with one finger Shambhavi mudra. Shiva describes this as Shambhavi mudra. Actually Shambhavi mudra is like this but you can try with simple two hands, two finger supporting on the face, you can try. When you try to touch, try to touch like a feather. Slowly you will see a kind of a strong energy connection getting built between the finger and the eyes.

What exactly has to happen you know, you should feel the finger also has become part of the eyes. As on now, when you close your eyes, you will feel your boundary is ending inside the eyes, the moment you close the eyes, your boundary ends in the eyelids. But you should touch in such a soft way, your eyes should feel it has expanded. Your eyes should feel the same sensitivity which you feel inside the eyes in the fingers also. Actually it is a very beautiful technique to develop the sensitivity in your whole body. Practically you will feel the same sensitivity which you are having in the eyeballs in the nails. Understand, you have to be so sharp in your sankalpa, so subtle in your visualisation.

As on now, the intense life which you feel inside your eyeballs, and the life which you feel on your nails, just compare. Your nails are practically dead. You don’t feel life in the nails, but you feel a strong sensitivity or life in the eyes. Mahadeva is saying bring that same sensitivity to the nails. Make your finger feel connected. Not only feel connected, feel the same sensitivity of the eyeballs. It is like a your eyes are always outgoing. Half of the consciousness is on your I, half is on mine. When you close the eyes and touch, make the finger sensitive, feel connected, it looks very illogical. How can this lead to Enlightenment? You will start seeing the energy circles inside you instead of outgoing. Understand, if you close it, the outgoing will stop but inside it will be getting wasted. You will see too many scenes. If you block it with the eyes and feel the hands also sensitive like eyeballs, you will stop seeing the scenes even inside. This is the logic how the technique works.

Enlightenment will happen if you stop seeing in outside and inside. If you close your eyelids, you will stop seeing outside but you will continue to see inside, the TV which cannot be switched off is there, doing all comedy shows and all serials whole day going on. And whether it is daytime or night time, some serial or comedy show is going on and sometime 2-3 shows goes on. That is the dangerous part. 2-3 shows at a time in same screen, that is the worst part, that is the worst part. And I have seen some of the comedy lines. If a agriculture show, show related to agriculture, and the show related to beautifying, if both are mixed on each other, what will happen? Please plough the land and apply the powder, add little cream, then put little pesticide and dig it deep and put the covering paste, then add lipstick, remove the mud. Both will create a big mess. That is what is exactly going on inside TV continuously. You do not know whether it is beautician course or agriculture work. You do not know whether you are learning farming or beautifying yourself, and finally you end up in what beauty you are carrying. Finally we end up in this mess. Switching off that inside TV, that will happen through this technique.

When you close your eyes and put the fingertip on the eyeballs, and put your attention between the eyeballs and the fingertips and feel connected and make the fingertips also as sensitive as eyeballs, your whole attention and energy will be balanced, will not have energy left for seeing inside TV. The comedy show will be switched off. And there will not be any movements inside your inner space. Suddenly you will see, you fall into the centre, you fall into the silence, you fall into the thoughtless state. There is no scene outside or inside. The seer is awakened.

Whenever the seeing stops, and the seen stops, the seer is awakened. By closing the eyes, seen stops. By putting the fingertips on the eyes and feeling connected, stops the seeing process. Naturally the seer is awakened. When the seer is awakened, you are rishi. That is why rishi is called seer. Mantra drashta, who sees mantra is rishi means who experiences mantra is rishi.

Understand, it’s a very powerful technique. Try in the home. It takes at least half an hour even once to balance. I have tried. Now trying will not work, don’t bother. It takes half an hour. Try in the home. At Least it will take one month but I can say, one month is too less time to balance yourself, to balance yourself. Try in the home, you will see, the seen, seeing will disappear into seer.

Let you all achieve and radiate the Eternal Bliss, Nithyananda

Thank you.
