That’s the way we Hindus are. We never bother if somebody hurts us. But we don’t keep quiet if our religious sentiments are hurt. See the Bharatn history. All the rulers if they enslave people, if they swindle the country, if they grab wealth, if they live a rich life, we don’t bother. We hear in the history, the French revolution happened because the queen and the king they lived in a luxurious way. In Bharat king or queen lives a luxurious way we don’t bother. ‘Ehh have it… who cares! We don’t use. If you want you use!’ From the 5000 years of recorded history if you see we don’t bother if somebody swindles our wealth, we don’t care if they live a luxurious life. But if they touch our religious sentiment, that’s all!
Aurangzeb, the whole Mughal Empire tumbled down, collapsed just because he started cutting the sacred thread of Brahmins; that’s all. We never bothered when these fellows come and swindle our wealth and take away and live in a luxurious way and put us in poverty; we don’t bother. Our religion teaches us to live in poverty. OK. I don’t say to live in poverty; to accept, if it is forced on you. We know acceptance. But we don’t keep quiet if our religious sentiments are touched. From time immemorial, I can list Aurangazeb, all the empires fallen, collapsed, tumbled down, is just because they touched our religious sentiment, our religious sentiments. Same way British; only when they gave the bullet with a cow’s fat, cows fat covered bullet, the first revolution against the British started; because cows are sacred for us. It is a religious sentiment. So we revolted. We don’t bother if they swindle. But we can’t tolerate if the religious sentiments are touched.
Let me enter into today’s satsang; its 168th sutra 6th verse Patanjali’s yoga sutra. I am continuing the same sutra yesterday which I was talking. I am continuing the same sutras which I was talking yesterday. Because some more important revelations you need to understand from that sutra. Let me enter into the sutra. Tatra Dhyana jam Anasayam
Vivekananda translates this sutra as among the various minds that which is attained by Samadhi is desire less.
Swami Prabhavananda translates as of the various types of mind only that which is purified by Samadhi is free from all the latent impressions of karma and from all cravings.
Swami Sachidananda translates as only the minds born of meditation are free from karmic impressions.
Bhagawan Osho translates as only the original mind which is born of meditation is free from desires.
Yesterday I was talking about the word dhyanajam; born of Samadhi, unclutching, meditation. Today I will take this technical term the word anasayam. Anasaya means, free from impressions. Not only free from impressions, free from possibility of creating any impressions. Patanjali says very beautifully in some other sutra like a fried seed, fried seed cannot grow, same way when unclutching happens, all the impressions, karma, gets fried. Anasayam - the possibility of impressions does not exist. Please understand, see it is not, not disrespecting now the cosmic presence.
Please understand all your desire is disrespecting the cosmic presence. Why do you desire? Because you don’t feel the cosmos is constantly supporting you. That’s the reason the desire. You don’t feel you are being showered. The ultimate truth is... please understand I am not giving you fantasy. I am not teaching you fantasy. I am teaching you reality. Even the life which is happening in your body is gift. Constantly you are showered. If you stand on this base you can create wealth ten times more. You can create infrastructure. See if you start your life from the mood of not having, you will not create wealth. You will grab wealth. If you start your life feeling blessed you will create wealth you will not grab wealth. There is a big difference. Understand.
I can say I have given you the basic sutra of the whole eN wealth program. This is what I go on expanding and making you feel as experience. If you start your life with the feeling ‘I don’t have’, you will grab; you will never create. You will be waiting for the opportunities to grab. Sometimes people tell me 'Swamiji I am completely content. I tell them ‘Oh that’s great! If you get a lottery billion dollar will you say you don’t want?’ No, no, no! Then what do you mean by you are completely content. No. Move from contentment to fulfillment.
Fulfillment is totally different from contentment. You want to know what is the difference between two. Sit on eN wealth. You will learn. If you start with idea of not having, ‘I don’t have, I don’t have’ you will only grab, you will wait to grab. If you start with the reality, I am showered ‘arey still I am alive, my kidney is working, my liver is working, my brain is working at least once in awhile! My heart is working, my lungs are working. So many things in our system is working. I am still feeling I am alive. Millions of possibilities open the moment you feel that you are alive. See the moment you are out of this door the millions of stars are seen, millions of possibilities are opening up. Same way the moment you feel you are alive the millions of possibilities are opening. The door for the millions of possibility is the first experience ‘I am alive’. Why don’t you recognize that and celebrate.
Understand just few days before we celebrated my enlightenment day. I am telling you vey directly. All that happened on that day I wanted to put it in a very plain words to you. I just recognized I am alive and I realized that ‘I am alive’ opens 1000s of possibility in the realms of mysticism, in the realms of life, in the realms of physical health, mental health, wealth, knowledge, enlightenment, relationships; in every realm which you feel is essence of life or necessary for happy life and finally being happy without anything in all realms. I suddenly felt in each realm 1000s of possibilities are opening for me because I am alive. All I did is I recognized I am alive and I realized 1000s of possibility is opening in front of me, billions of possibilities are open in front of me and I started celebrating that’s all.
See recognizing I am alive is sat-truth, recognizing billions of possibilities are there in front of me is chit-consciousness. Celebrating ‘Wow’ is ananda; that’s all. Just I experienced satchitananda the glimpse of satchidananda on that day. That’s what I call enlightened, enlightenment. And just decide today you will recognize you are alive. You are alive means what? Now millions of possibilities are opening in front of you. What million, billion! What billion, trillion possibilities are opening in front of you! You can be a good father or you can be a bad father. You can be a good brother or you can be a bad brother. You can be a good friend or you can be a bad friend or you can be healthy or you can be sick; but all are possibilities. 1000s of possibilities are open in front of you is enough reason to celebrate. Understand when you realize trillions of possibilities are open in front of you, you will become desire less.
Please understand I am cracking an important knot which keeps ignorance alive in you. I am cracking the head of the ignorance. If you are aware trillions of possibilities are in front of you, you will not have desire. You will experience anasayam; means where not only there is desirelessness, the possibilities of desires gets burnt. You may think how can it be. If there are billions of possibilities in front of me, naturally I will be having so many desires to have this choice, that choice, that choice, that choice. No. When there is billions of possibilities in front of you, billions of choices in front of you, suddenly you feel like resting in choicelessness. The decision to rest in choicelessness, decision to relax in choicelesness happens when you see trillions of choices in front of you. When trillions of possibilities are in front of you, you just decide relaxing into choicelessness. You feel the ability to choose is more powerful, important, energetic, fulfilling, than any choice you make.
Please understand the moment you start making choices your freedom of being in choicelessness is getting restricted. The moment you choose you will be choosing language. Now you are in bondage of acting only in that language realm. Till you choose you have a freedom of all languages. The moment you choose you will take birth in Bharat now you are bound by all the plus and minuses of this Bharatn society. Till you choose you are beyond the plus and minuses of Bharatn society. Every choice you make takes away some part of being choice less from you. So when there are trillions of choices in front of you, you suddenly decide Wow being choice less is the best thing. Being choice less is the ultimate experience. The person who is being choice less will be the infinite creator, infinite creator.
Please understand, try resting in choicelessness. You will see the amount of wealth you will create; attract around you without grabbing. The technical term in this sutra is anasayam desirelessness. The essence, sacred secret in this sutra is relax into the space of gratitude ‘you are showered with so much’; trillions of choices are there in front of you. When you realize trillions of choices are there in front of you, you just relax in choice less awareness.
Just take few moments to remember ‘Wow I am alive. This is enough to open trillions of possibilities in front of me. Let me recognize I am alive. Let me recognize trillions of possibilities are there in front of me. Let me celebrate that, sat and chit.’ Sit with this clarity of satchidananda. Let this become your experience in next few minutes. Let this samyama happen in you now. Just sit remembering I am alive. Trillions of possibilities are there in front of me. Let me celebrate it. Close your eyes and just relax.
I bless you all who are sitting with us at this moment around the world in 576 places through eN TV through, two way connection 15 places, in 133 cities, in 26 countries. I bless you all to achieve, experience, live, express, radiate and share the eternal bliss, Nithyananda.
Thank you.
