The Satsang

I welcome you all with my love and respects. I will continue on the yesterday’s sutra, in the 3rd chapter, 45th verse Patanjali’s yoga sutras. sthoola swaroopa sookshma anvaya arthavatva sammyamaat bhoota jayaha. Through samyama on the gross and the fine forms of elements, their essential traits, the inherence of the gunas in them and their contributing to the experience of the soul comes the mastery of the elements. This is Swami Vivekananda’s translation.

See in this sacred…. in this sutra there are three sacred secrets; One falling in tune with the elements, connecting or conquering the elements or going beyond the elements. There are three components. Only this second component like conquering and going beyond only takes lot of time; too much of samyama. Too….. I can say that meticulous practices are required. In the first level falling in tune does not need much meticulous practices. It can really help to change your life, transform your life. It can really add so much to you. I will give you more tips and methods and techniques for this first level like a falling in tune…. for that.

As I said yesterday ‘the world’ and ‘my world’, today I will give this as a home work for all the satsangis. Do it and come back. Sit and pen down wherever that ‘the world’ and ‘my world’ is not in tune; conflict, contradiction. Sit and pen down. When you are able to dig it out the ‘the world’ and ‘my world’ the contradictions and conflicts, you will see exactly it boils down to some form of misunderstanding with elements; elements which are acting in your body. For example the fire elements representation is there in your stomach. Water elements representation is there in your blood. Earth elements representation is your bone marrow and bone. Air energy’s representation is your breathing. Space energy’s representation is your thinking. So if you boil it down where the conflict is and if you do samyama just on that element, you will be conflict free.

So do this as a homework. Today I will stop just with this home work. Finish this home work and come back tomorrow. I will give you the methods of doing samyama on all the five so that you can experience that being in tune with the elements. So today with this homework I will let you guys do the home work and come back. Tomorrow, I will give you tomorrow five major samyama techniques to work on; Samyama on fire, Samyama on water, Samyama on earth, Samyama on air and Samyama on space; so that you can fall in tune.

Please understand through this samyamas you can’t conquer; you can fall in tune. You will receive information but you can’t change or conquer. I think even that much will be of a big help for you to live your life. So I bless you all. Understand the homework thoroughly. I want to give once more the instruction for homework. Sit and pen down all the conflict you have between ‘the world’ and ‘my world’. It will be huge 5000 page book. Pen down. It is good. Then classify them; the conflicts related to body - earth, conflict related to blood circulation - some diseases like blood pressure diabetes all the blood related disease, conflicts related to prana - air circulation, conflicts related to the mind - space. So all five pen down and classify. Tomorrow I will guide you into the deeper solutions; solution samyamas.

I bless you all. Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate and share the eternal bliss, Nithyananda.

Thank you.
