“No, I am not telling, please understand, I am not giving you some false…”

No, I am not telling, please understand, I am not giving you some false idea. I am not giving you some false hypnotist things. No! I am just stating the simple straight. If you, if you are, see, if you think, there is something wrong in what I am saying, come up. I have no problem. We’ll analyse the question. Let me finish the initiation. Alright, your, your, question can ask?

Participant: My question was Swamiji that if I am suffering pain now, say I’ve broken my knee, I to, how to, what do I do about it? I can’t...

Swamiji: Ah, yes please be seated. No, no, listen, no, no, see that is, that is what I told just now, you didn't understand. The pain which you experienced in your body 10 years ago somewhere, 9 years ago somewhere, 8 years ago somewhere and now why are you connecting that same experiences and saying it is the pain? You understand?

[01:18] Just see as if a child, how a child watches the rose, same way just see, what is going on in your knees? Something strange is happening inside, let me see. Try with your pain, I guarantee it’ll disappear; because I've done it.

Participant: He is talking about acute pain; like you fall and have an injury?

Swamiji: See, there is no such thing as acute. Alright. Can... you have the thought now, ‘acute pain’ and you have the thought ‘let me stand up’. Can this thought ‘let me stand up’ come without replacing the thought ‘you have acute pain’?

Participants: No.

Swamiji: Tell me?

Participants: No.

[02:07] Understand, it is only the number of times that thought getting repeated. If the thought, “I have acute pain” is getting repeated, thousand times per second in your - in you, you start thinking it is a strong existential experience. Please understand, if you take one fire torch and rotate, in a full speed what you will see?

Participants: Fire circle.

Swamiji: Fire circle. Why? Because number of times that fire is moving is more than the

Participants: eyes power.

Swamiji: Eyes power, the ability to catch. Am I right?

Participants: Yes.

Swamiji: Same way, the number of thoughts… the thought ‘I have acute knee pain,’ if it gets repeated more number of times than your mind's awareness, please understand, than your awareness, what happens? You start seeing the fire circle. Am I right?

Participants: Yes.

Swamiji: The person who questioned, you are able to understand what I am saying?

Participant: Yes.

[03:15] Swamiji: Let me finish the initiation, then I’ll answer all your questions about this, because this is the essence of NSP. Understand? This is the essence of NSP. If you can catch this truth, the note with which you wrote will look very funny and you will feel, “3 days Swami wasted my time. 3 days Swami wasted my time.” Because now if you read again, once more, it’ll look, “Ahhhh. Ahh, Swami should have told this first day itself.” Understand, no, that’s what...I am now, I am coming to physical pain, physical disease, relationship, mental problem, I am coming to everything. I am coming to every step, how to apply this initiation.

[04:11] If your eyes, attention, whole thing is centred on master, only then the initiation can happen. Only then every word will make - have that click in you. Please understand, even if you miss one sentence what I am uttering, you will miss the truth. See, I was talking about this pain; the idea, the concept that you have acute pain, if it is repeated thousand times per second, that's what I call thoughts per second - TPS, thousand times per second, you will not have awareness to see the gap between the two, two repetition, am I right?

Participants: Yes.

Swamiji: See, it is like a water bubbles coming from the fish tank. Every bubble is a independent, individual, unconnected bubble, am I right?

Participants: Yes.

Swamiji: But because the number of bubbles is more, you think it is just a fountain. Am I right?

Participants: Yes.

Swamiji: Same way, because the number of times you repeating that you have acute pain is more, you start thinking that acute pain is a experience.

[05:38] Please understand, first try to play with the simple pains you are carrying. Stomach pain or headache or knee pain. Suddenly you will see they will disappear, they will not be there. This will give you so much of experiential courage, understand? When the initiation is applied in life it is called tapas. Now what I am talking to you, this truth is initiation. When you are convinced and when you have courage about it and start experimenting with it, it is called tapas. In the initial one or two days, it may take a few more minutes, because the number of times you repeat, ‘I have acute pain, I have acute pain, I have acute pain,’ you’re just repeating hundred and, hundred times, two hundred times per second. That has to come down. How long it will take? Hardly few seconds, nothing else.

[06:45] Listen, the moment you say, ‘let me have cup of coffee’ - if you want you can say even orally, loud way. Now you know for last one second the idea that you have acute pain has been replaced, am I right?

Participants: Yes.

Swamiji: The moment you entered this sentence that, ‘I want to have a cup of coffee’; it does come back, that is different. Then what you are supposed to do now again? ‘I want to have one more cup of coffee. I want to stand up.’ Please understand, only, first two three times your mind will try to play the game. If your mind knows one thought or one pain or one fear, you successfully replaced, it’ll be completely shaken. Even once, if you beat a dada, he will lose his wole power. He will lose his whole grace. He will lose his whole... am I right?

Participants: Yes.

Swamiji: Your whole game, the game between you and your mind is a simple psycho-drama; who shouts more, he wins.

[08:00] Understand? It is the same game between you and your spouse. No, there is no logic behind who wins. Sometime what you talk may be logical truth but that does not mean you are going to win. Who shouts loud is going to win. That's the truth, am I right?

Participants: Yes 100%

Swamiji: No, the same thing, same thing with your mind. Whether it is, ideas about persons or the sufferings caused by persons, when I say knee pain will disappear - what about simple mental heaviness? That will disappear in [Swamiji snaps finger to indicate disappear in a snap] The moment you have the heaviness or depression decide, “let me have ice cream.” That's all. The thought “I scream” will disappear. “I scream” will disappear. Why?

Participants: Ice-cream

Swamiji: “Ice-cream”. You may think, “No, no, no, how long I can be replacing continuously these thoughts?” Don't be afraid. The moment you can replace, with one simple thought any big emotion, you lost fear or respect about that big emotions. Am I right?

[09:34] Participant: I just experimented

Swamiji: That's all. That's all. Nothing else Ma; just experiment with the simple things which you are having now, you will see they are not there. What can be done? The whole problem is you bring all these guys again and again back to your inner space because you feel lonely. Without your pain, your suffering, your fear, your troubles, your depression, you feel lonely. You want to have your company. See, by and by you started enjoying them. By and by you feel they've become part of you. You feel, ‘without them what is life?’ No, that is the whole problem. Otherwise, see whatever I am saying does any one statement, looks illogical?

Participants: No

Swamiji: Tell simple truth straight away. That's all.

[10:49] So now, if you have... one more thing, understand. You can experiment with any problem from this moment, from this moment. I guarantee I have seen in My life. I have seen in millions of My disciples lives. It works. Simple understanding. Only one clarity - you can not have two, two thoughts at a time, am I right?

Participants: Yes.

Swamiji: So any new thought which comes inside replaces the old thought, am I right?

Participants: Yes.

Swamiji: So, any emotion which can be replaced by a simple thought, what is the value of that emotion? Ahhh. You don't even have to think now to have cup of coffee. If you have a deep fear or a deep greed or vengagence or anger, what you are supposed to do? Ahhh. Somebody asked Me, “If I am sitting whole day and saying Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, to my, whatever is going on in my inner space, then how will I run my life?” This is the next question, let us come to the...

[12:16] They asked Me, “No, no. Who will pay my bills? Who will go to my job? Who will feed my family? Whole day I am sitting and saying, ‘Ahhh. Ahhh. Ahhhh.’ Who will take care of my wife? Who will take care of my life?” Listen here, now comes an important revelation, truth. Whether you believe it or not, accept it or not, understand or not. The prarabdha, the desires or the energy which you brought and with which you created your body, is intelligent enough to run all your responsibilities, all your duties and expand the infrastructural luxury which you want.

[13:09] Please understand. I am not giving you false promise, listen. It's the important truth. Catching this truth is what I call bhakti. Bhakti means, not believing some statue which is there somewhere, or some person who is there somewhere. No. Bhakti means trusting the cosmic energy which is going inside you as prana and coming out of your body as a outgoing prana - that energy has intelligence and compassion to run your body and mind and family and the responsibilities you have taken. That is what Krishna means when he says in Gita (9.22)

ananyāś cintayanto mām ye janāḥ paryupāsate I teṣāṁ nityābhiyuktānāṁ yogakṣemaṁ vahāmyahaṁ II

Whoever reminds, remembers me, remains in me, relaxes in me, whatever they want, I bring it to them and see that it stays with them. Please understand.

[14:35] Beautifully Buddha says - Buddha says very beautifully, “when you relax from the constant irritation which is pushing your body.” Please understand, when you unclutch all you will have, all you will lose is only the constant irritation you are having. For example, when you lie down in the bed, early morning, 7 o'clock, your wife is calling you, waking you up. First thing you will have an irritation. “Oh I have to get up. One more day.” You will lose only that constant irritation you are carrying, nothing else. Nothing else. Listen intensely, this is the important part.

[15:29] He will be - you may be having fear: “No, no, from morning till night whatever comes inside if I am sitting and saying, ‘Ahhh, ahhhh, ahh.’ Will I not become lazy? How will I go for job?” Understand, you will go to the job, proper time, proper way, without carrying irritation or without carrying restlessness or vengeance against anybody. How you know? First 10 days unclutch, even if you lie down in your bed, nothing wrong. 10 days don't go to the job, nothing wrong. Take vacation, it's okay. In 10 days you think your job will disappear, or your life will disappear? Nothing wrong. 10 days is worthy gain, I tell you. At the most within three, four days, three, four days you may lie down and sleep, sleep, sleep but how long you can be sleeping? How many days, you can lie down, tell me? How many days you can be lazy? As long as the tamas in your body exhausts, you can be lazy.

[16:36] See, your body is made out of 33% of tamas, 33% of rajas - restlessness, 33% of sattva - peace. As long as the 33% gets exhausted, you suppressed that 33% tamas. You didn't, you may, you may not have given enough rest for your body. So till that desire for the rest disappears, exhausts, you will be lying down. After that what will happen? You can't be lying down. Suddenly, the rajas will come out as creativity, it will come out as creativity. You will feel, I think, now it is time I am fresh, lets do”.

[17:24] Understand, even if you say, ‘Ahh, ahh.’ You will see, without any irritation, without any itching, a simple thought will flow out of your body and it will become action, that is what I call karma yoga. A simple thought, expressing out of your body and becoming action is karma yoga. Not anything else, Karma yoga is not anything else. Simple thought happening and becoming action, without creating irritation.

[18:04] Please listen, now what I am saying may look too big promise. Try. In one week you won’t disappear, you won't die, nothing wrong. That trying is what I call tapas. That trying is what I call tapas. Decide, for next 11 days, whatever comes up in my mind, all I’ll do is, “Ahhhhhh. Ahhhhhh.” You will see, without feeling irritated, you feel like, “Alright, let me go to office, let me do this decision, let me do that.” You will start doing, but you will not be carrying the weight with which you used to work. The fear about your emotions, fear about your inner being or the disrespect you carry about you will not be there. Suddenly you will see so much of courage, so much of confidence, so much of integrity, so much of respect for yourself that you can handle your being.

[19:11] Please understand. Respect that you can handle you, is what I call Jnāna. That is what I call Jnāna. Bhakti, the trust, the existence is here to fulfill you, not to take revenge on you; you don't have to constantly protect you to fulfill yourself. Just open your hands, you will be fulfilled. Just open yourself, you will be fulfilled. You don't have to be so insecure to fulfill what you have to be. Relax. The whole existence is running, moving. Earth is moving, Moon is rotating the Earth. The Earth is going around the sun, the whole cosmos is moving to fulfill what you want to become. Please understand. The whole cosmos is moving. You can have two attitude. One, “This cosmos is moving, to fulfill what I want to become.” Or “No, this cosmos is moving, to take away what I want to become”. What you want to believe?

Participants: The first one.
