The Satsang

Just sit, this morning freshness, that beginning mind. No meditation, no mantra, no concentration, not even trying to be aware. Just sit with closed eyes. Whatever can happen between you and Me, let it happen. Let you feel your presence and My presence intensely. That’s all. Let there be only your presence and My presence. Do not meditate, do not concentrate, do not repeat any mantra, just sit. Whatever happens allow it happen. Just cooperate. Whatever is happening in you, be with it. You can open your eyes. People are really growing little more, only one or two are having...but others are really….. This is the scale with which I measure the depth of the person, who can sit with himself, without any entertainment or a technique or a method. That is the moment, can….we know how the Being is, how the Being is. Even a meditation technique is little makeup. Without even a technique just...just as you are, how you are. Today we will work on death. I want to share with you, experience which happened in My own life, then you may understand lot of things about death. And you may have lot of questions about death. Then we’ll analyze everything about death and try to understand intellectually, then experience in the Being level. Not only intellectual, today we will go through the experience of death. When I was wondering doing yatra, parivrajaka yatra, it is supposed to be done by all the enlightened beings, especially when an incarnation lands on Planet Earth, before he starts teaching, it’s like a preparation he goes through and lives among the people, to know really what needs to be taught - how people have updated themself. He has to know, only then he can update his teachings. How people have updated themself or what kind of lifestyle they are living.

So whether it is Shankara or Ramanuja or Buddha, whoever it may be, it’s a basic need, for any incarnation on the Planet Earth. It’s a basic need, go around, spend time with the people where they are, at their homes and where they live, in their level. Not going as a guest. The moment you go as a guest….now if I go as a guest to any house, I will not know the real situation of the house, because furniture everything they’ll make it new. “Oh, Swamiji is coming!” Not that way. Going as a aditihi….aditihi means not informing the date you are coming. Tithi means date,athithi means who goes without the information of the date or time of arrival. Going as aditihi. Just walking in and living with them. It’s a basic condition for any incarnation, before he starts teaching. Whether it….I can say, all the Bharatns masters - Shankara, Ramanuja, Buddha, Swaminarayan, all Bharatn masters. They have done this. It is a basic need. I can say, only the people who have done this yatra, has a rich experience, has something solid to contribute every Being. Because they know what people need. They know what people need. There are some enlightened beings, but who have not done this kind of yatra, they were not able to help millions. They were not able to help large number of human beings. For example - Ramana Maharshi. Ramana Maharshi is a great master no doubt, but he was not able to contribute to large number of people. He was able to contribute only to the people who gathered around him, that also only one path, one method. I am not underestimating or anything, I am just stating the fact to all of you. But when a master takes up this kind of yatra, so much enrichment happens in his very understanding about human beings. So now, you see as an enlightenment experience - Buddha, Ramakrishna, Ramana Maharshi, everybody is one and the same. But the expression becomes very sharp. Expression is what is directly going to helpful for you, useful for you. Expression becomes very sharp, very clear, user friendly. That is the right word.

User friendly, when a incarnation takes up this parivrajaka yatra, so I became more user friendly when I go and live with them, because I know what really they want, how I can add to their life, what is the exact term I need to use to express the truth. Even this word ‘user friendly’. So spirituality as a user friendly version. So, making it more user friendly is the purpose of parivrajaka yatra. We call it spiritual journey. You are suppose to walk….there are some technical details. You are suppose to walk up to Rameshwaram, Puri, Dwarka and Joshimath. These are all different places. If you are not from Bharat, don’t get confused. It is like a south, north, east, west corners of Bharat and there are 12 major Shiva temples spread all over Bharat - Jyotirlinga temples. So you are suppose to visit all that jyotirlinga temples. When I was doing that yatra, I think it took 9 year for Me. But I started My yatra in a very young age. Even when I was in the home, I’ll go and come, I’ll go and come. I’ll go to different temples. I’ll take up every year Sabarimala yatra. That different different yatras I’ll take up - small small, I’ll come back. But this at one stretch took the yatra. It was a...I can say, it added so much of understanding into Me. Not enlightenment itself. Please understand. There was no...the enlightenment itself did not happen because of the yatra. Enlightenment happened different reason or a…. I can say meditation or...that is the reason for enlightenment. But this yatra added so much of understanding, that I am directly productive to the society. I am able to directly contribute to the society. I have become user friendly. I have become lot more simple and I am able to connect with people, exactly what they need, what I can contribute. That became lot more easy. So I always feel, even for My Brahmacharis, I feel they should travel and I send them sometime and do this kind of yatra. It really adds so much to you.

And Bharat is a very safe country, if you wear this cloth. I am really telling you. This cloth, Bharat is a very safe country. Especially if you move towards north. Nobody will ask you - ticket - everybody will give you food. Bharat is very safe country, if you are with this cloth. Only you should not disturb others, that’s all. I was doing My parivrajaka yatra. One place near Varanasi, not Varanasi itself, near Varanasi. Varanasi is the….I can say, the spiritual headquarters of Hindus. Once in a life, everybody has to visit Varanasi and have darshan of Vishwanath, that is the tradition. 300000 people come inside that city per day.(???????loss of audio???????????) 300000 people per day in the city. I think largest floating population in the world is that city only. It’s more than I think 4 times more than Vatican. So per day, 300000 people come inside the city, like floating population, it’s a spiritual headquarters. Just near, near that city, a small village - it’s called Gaziabad. There was an hospital, just near that area. I think little away from Gaziabad. Once sadhu was sick, so he was in the hospital - ICU - Intensive Care Unit. Don’t image American Intensive Care Unit! Here we use the same word, but not same instruments. One sadhu was sick and he is in death bed. Sadhu means a monk. One monk was in death bed. In north, the tradition is - any elderly sadhu, monk is sick, the youngsters, the Brahmacharis will take care. So I was a young sadhu, so I naturally felt I should take care. I was staying in that village. So I went and started attending him, taking care of him. It was a very strong experience. I was taking care of him. He was about to die. Please understand. He was about to die. Not only he was about to die, the next bed - that man is also….he was also struggling for life. He was pulling and pushing, almost grasping for breath. So when I saw, that guy was dying, not the monk, the next bed guy, I was able see very clearly, what is happening inside him. I was not able to help him, because I have not completely….I can say, after My satori but not fully become enlightened, means the realization that I am an incarnation, did not happen at that time. So only when the realization - you are an incarnation happens, you’ll be able to help.

It was time when My body itself was getting prepared for that explosion. So I was not able to help. But I was able to see very clearly, what is going on. Doctors are standing around him, trying to help. But what doctors can do, they can only console the relatives. Nothing else can be done. And they are trying to give all the supports, all possible support - medical support and it’s afterall a small hospital. Whatever they have, they are giving. That guy is grasping for breath, grasping for breath. Just…. I could see very clearly, how the death was happening. I can say, it is one of the strongest experience I had outside Me. you see, inside Me the strongest experience is realizing the mission or the purpose of this birth, that’s what I call enlightenment. So that experience is the strongest experience happened inside Me. The strongest experience I ever had in My life outside Me, is this experience. I could very clearly, how that life source settling or moving away from the body. First actually, when I was able to see, I couldn’t tolerate. I was not able to tolerate. One important thing I want you to know, if it is physical pain, when you see somebody suffering, it’ll only affect you 40%. If it is a mental pain, depression, when somebody is in depression, if you see, if you are able to connect, it will affect you 60%. If the pain is emotional pain and you are able to see and connect, it will affect you 80%. The more subtle the pain is, the more you will also be affected. You understand what I am saying? If the pain is physical, the other person’s pain is physical, he will be affected only some 30%. If you see an accident, you will be affected only that much. But if you see somebody in a deep depression and you know the purpose and the whole history and everything, it affects you at least 60%. And if the pain is subtle, emotional, deeper than the mental depression, emotional or Being level and you see and you are able to connect and understand, it’ll be….it will create a very strong effect in you. I not only saw physical or mental or emotional, I saw very Being level. How that soul is struggling, how that individual soul is struggling with that body. So it was such a shock, practically I Myself felt it. So I just want to run away from that area.

But this Swami, this monk whom I am taking care, he gets frightened and he holds My hand,” No, no, no, you have to be here. Stay here, stay here. I am going to die. Don’t leave me and go away.” He is 90, above 90. And what to do? And I was taking care of him, maybe I think 2 or 3 months. And he naturally become connected to Me, very attached with Me and he said that,” Even if I die, I should die at your lap. So you are the one who is taking care of me.” I used to clean and take care of him. I really loved serving the monks. From My young age, this is My...I can say, My life. From the young age, I will steal everything from the house and give it to the monks. Nothing, whether it is a cloth or food or ….of course, one nice thing My mother, she will never say ‘no’, when I am giving to sadhus. But My grandmother is very idiotic. She is a….I don’t want to use any word and she will keep an eye on Me continuously. She will be usually sitting outside the house only. Usually in the Bharatn villages, the ladies will sit outside the gate, with the stretched leg they’ll be sitting and grinding the betel nut and betel leaf and that tobacco...tobacco and chewing it and spitting all over the wall and everywhere. And that lady will be sitting there only. Still she is sitting there only. I left the house, became enlightened, now the whole mission is there, still she has not changed her place. And she is still alive, that’s another one thing. And she’ll stretch her leg and she will watch what I am carrying when I go out and what I am bringing when I am coming. And sometime she will check also, security check also. I have to go through security check also, whether anything is hidden inside the tummy or anything. Serving sadhus was My passion. I always feel, this whole tradition is alive just because of service to sadhus, service to the monks. It is they who kept the science. See in the West, if you are doing some research in any field, that company will sponsor. If you are doing research in the medical field, the pharmacist company….the pharmacist company will sponsor. Each research, somebody has a vested interest. So they sponsor that research. If it is a about space, the government sponsors, like that.

But if somebody wants to do a spiritual research, who will sponsor, food and stay and shelter? Bharat is such a great country, the whole country took the responsibility - “we will sponsor”. Go to any house with this cloth - north. The south that...it has...it has been lost. In the north, you’ll have food, shelter and cloth. The whole country took up the responsibility. Anybody does spiritual research, we will sponsor. Seeking is nothing but a spiritual research. That is what is the truth. So country decides,” We will sponsor.” So people who have taken up this research, who will take care of that? I always felt, it’s My responsibility to take care of the sadhus. So I am not able to run away from him, because he is telling,” No, no, no, stop, be here. Otherwise I will die.” And he is able to hear the sound from the next bed. In Bharat, people don’t die softly. They shout! I don’t know in the West also same thing happens. They shout and cry,” Oh Amma, it is paining here, it is paining here”, they do all…. What can be done? Even if you shout, nothing can be done. And that guy was dying, he was going through such a hard time. Let Me describe it - how it was. It’s like a...the whole six feet was being...the body, whole body was being torned. That’s what I felt. That consciousness….how the...see, if you are a...small finger, if you have a cut, how you feel the pain - the same kind of cut is happening in the body. The skin is being peeled. That’s what exactly...no, I saw the consciousness. Please understand. Whatever I am talking is truth. I have to describe. It’s like thousands of scorpions biting at a time. Have you had scorpion bite, anybody? So thousand, just multiply it. Every pore, the scorpion is bitten. It’s like a...one side that soul is saying, soul means not the pure consciousness, the soul associated with all the engrams - desire, guilt, greed, lust, fear, anger, what pain, pleasure. You see, when the pure soul added with all these engrams is called individual soul. Individual soul and all the engrams are taken away - called pure soul.

Pure soul is the Cosmos. I can say, individual soul. The individual soul was having a terrible suffering. The individual soul wants to stay in the body and enjoy. But body is saying,” No, I am tired. I can’t hold you anymore. I am done.” Body just wants to relax. So the fight between the body and individual soul is happening. The fight between the body and the individual soul. Every inch the fight is going on. The individual soul feels,” Even if the right leg goes, it’s okay. Catch on, hold on to the left leg. Even if the left hand goes, it’s okay. Hold on to right hand.” Individual...whatever parts it can hold on, it tries to hold on. And slowly slowly that part is saying,” No, I am done. Relax. I am done, relax.” Part by part it’s dropping. When the lower body is getting dropped, the struggle was not too much. Only when the higher, upper body started, I could see very clearly, the pulsating pain… I can say the whole Being was vibrating with pain. You see, yesterday after energy darshan, I saw so many of you, vibrating with peace and bliss. How many of you felt that vibrating with the peace and bliss? And now understand, imagine the opposite. That is what is… Now you know, what I mean by vibrating. How you vibrated with the peace, same way I saw that Being was vibrating with pain. Whole Being, it was such a shock. Slowly that individual soul started moving out of the physical body, with all these suffering and pain, finally physical body dropped. When the breathing stops, that is the moment individual soul leaves the physical body. Then starts the next fight, next level body - the prana sareera. The next level body - that fight starts. You see, there are seven layers in you. I’ll give you simple description now for you to understand. It’s a seven part of you. The body made out of flesh and bones and blood - this is the first layer, first body, physical body. The energy which is moving in you as a prana . see, in the five kind of air circulation happens in you - Prana, Vyana, Udana, Samana, Apana - means going in, staying in, spreading all over the body and coming out and cleaning. These are the five air process happens in you. Going in - staying inside the body - spreading all over the body as an oxygen, as a life force - coming out - and cleaning.

Cleaning means even through skin, even your sweating is because of the prana movement only. So five air movements are happening in you. All the five air movements are called the second body, second layer body - prana sareera. The third, the inner chattering which goes on continuously in you. The inner chattering is the third body - mental body. Fourth, the emotions which you are experiencing - fear or greed or anger - the emotions which spreads all over the body without the usage of words. Please understand. There are some emotions, which can shake your whole Being without the usage of any words. No need for any word to be uttered. But the emotion can shake you. That is what is fourth layer body - emotional layer. The fifth, is the body you experience in the deep sleep. Body experienced in the deep sleep, where all the engrams are in a seed level, in a causal level. They have not….they are not giving you any experience, but they are not dead in the causal level - this is the fifth layer. Sixth layer, the Cosmic body, where you experience bliss. In you life, at least once or twice, you would have experienced bliss. That is the sixth layer. Sixth layer only, continuously inspires you to be a seeker. If you are a seeker, seeking continuously, sixth layer is very strong in you. If you enrich the sixth layer, your life will be blissful. So that is the sixth layer. Seventh is the enlightenment, the ultimate enlightenment itself. So these are the seven parts of you, it’s like a seven spare parts of you.
