“2nd chapter Sankhya Yoga, verse 31 –”

Prayer. Welcome.

2nd chapter Sankhya Yoga, verse 31 –

“sva-dharmam api caveksya na vikampitum arhasi dharmyad dhi yuddhac chreyo 'nyat ksatriyasya na vidyate”

The translation – “Considering your own nature, you don’t need to tremble. Surely, for a warrior other than this righteous war nothing is considered more fortunate”

The keywords you need to understand in this verse – svadharma. Let us analyze this word svadharma. Please understand the whole universe functions with certain flow. It is a conscious design. Everything fits with everything properly. There is no chaos. Man who can’t see the proper organism, flow, he thinks there is chaos. But there is no chaos. Everything is flowing properly. Everything fits with everything. Before you thought the world is chaos it was running, after you realize world is in order, it will be running. Even while atheists are preaching there is no God, God continues to exist and take care of even the atheists. Atheists say – no, no, no. He does not need to take care of us. We will take care of ourselves. They do not know they fight with the very source. The whole is flowing. The way you are supposed to fit with the whole is svadharma. Please understand, law of natural evolution, law of natural raising, law of naturally moving to the highest coherence of your consciousness. There is a natural universal law. Everything is flowing in that. Everything is flowing with that.

“sva-dharmam api caveksya na vikampitum arhasi dharmyad dhi yuddhac chreyo 'nyat ksatriyasya na vidyate”

Bhagavan’s words we can’t you should not dare to manipulate or misinterpret this word. Bhagavan is straight away saying for your svadharma, see the reason for which I created you, the place where you are supposed to fit for that this is the right action, do it! Creator authoritatively addresses the problem. Please understand, Krishna is not a person who is conditioned by the concepts of community, caste, creed or religion or other social morality and social ideas. No. He has done everything you described as immoral, illegal in those days or now a days. Anything you described as illegal or immoral Krishna has done it. He has not left anything. He has done the greatest things of the world and same way, he has done what you call as cheapest. Here is a authority who has a right to say about svadharma. Please understand, whatever is said and done a man who has not seen both sides misses little juice, little spice. I cannot say don’t eat non-veg because I do not know. If I was habituated brought up with non-veg, I do not know how to quit. I do not know all the struggles and suffering you go through when I see a photographer’s non-veg cooked, I do not have any experience in my tongue, my tongue is dead. It is not inviting, it is not tempting me. So what right do I have to tell you – give up non-veg? I can say as a medical advice. I can give this word. But I don’t have a moral authority because I do not know how to get out of that saliva comes in your mouth when you see that non-veg photograph, when the smell of non-veg cooking happens to you. I do not know. I can at the most tell you to get out of gongura chutney because only that I have tasted. When I see that, the saliva which comes in my mouth I have controlled, I know how to control. So this I have right. But many things I myself have not tasted. So I have no right to talk about svadharma. Please understand, man who has missed many things in his life naturally will be less spicy. Here is Bhagavan who has played with the life like a child. He is not the guy who enters into the lake and just takes bath and washes his body and applies the soap and takes bath and comes out. He is a guy who splashes the whole water, waddles in the water, jumps, makes a big ruckus. I can tell you very clearly how Brindavan would have been. Every day the extreme joy and happiness and the extreme insecurity. You do not know what he will do next day. Two types of insecurity – one – insecurity what happen to you, where will you be? Will be near him or away from him? What will happen to your relationship with him? Second – you are so much involved with him. When you have so much love, you have a deep insecurity – will this fellow land himself in some problem? I tell you when you have too much of love, when you are involved too much with anybody, you will have a deep insecurity about that person. You will have a fear. He is so innocent, you don’t know, will he land himself in some problem. When I trashed left and right Sun TV, Nakheeran, everybody all our devotees also have this fear. This fellow is banging them left and right, they are rowdies and they don’t bother to kill people, will Swamiji land himself in any big trouble? Don’t worry. Even though gopis and Gopikas had so much of fear, will Krishna land himself in any trouble? No. Only he landed, all others will be in big trouble. But you need to wait till the end of the Bhagavatha story. During Bhagavatha story it always looks like Krishna is having trouble. But by the end of the chapter, always Krishna wins! That is why he is Krishna!

Krishna has right to talk about svadharma. Bhagavan has authority to talk about svadharma. Svadharma is the natural flow of your being. First thing you need to have tremendous respect for your choices. I have seen many people live in mental poverty. They feel whatever they are doing even if it is good thing, heart of the heart they believe they are doing it as in a choiceless way which is not. Understand, just yesterday, I was having meeting with group of my disciples, followers, doctors. Please understand, I told them don’t feel this profession you took this profession for money. You can make money by selling alcohol. It is after all illegal, sorry, legal in this country. It’s not illegal. You can make money by selling alcohol also. You can make money by doing so many things immoral but legal. You have not chosen all those professions. You have chosen a great sacred that’s the right word I want to use, sacred healing profession. I tell you wound in your muscles, wound in your physiology, wound in your psychology – if anybody heals both the wounds in any way, I will call them sacred. Wounds in your physiology or psychology, if somebody heals in some way, even if with one good word, a smile. Ramakrishna says very beautifully when he goes in the horse carriage to Calcutta, he says even the people who look at me casually will be spiritually benefited and liberated. I thought it is little too much. But now when I am driving, I realize the moment people see me without their knowledge, even if I keep my face tight at least for the moment they are healed, they are out of all their suffering. One of my Swami was telling. No, no, Swamiji because you smile, they are smiling and they are waiving their hand. So I try to keep myself, control. Last few days I tried. When people see me I just …but even then I see their face light up, 1000 watts and they wave their hand. For a moment they are healed. Maybe if their engrams are so powerful they go back to that mental set up, that same old way. But for a moment they are healed. Any way you can heal – by a word or a deed. Please understand, the psychological healing sometimes may not be permanent because they again go and hurt themselves. But physiological healing is more long lasting than psychological healing. That is why I tell you profession of healing is sacred. Let me be honest. Everything is profession in the world. Everything whether mother giving birth to a child or the child doing last rites to the parents – the moment you need a reason it is profession. If you ask why should I do shraaddha for my elders and you get some answer and do it, it is a profession. It is no more life. It is no more action of love. No. It is profession. The moment why enters into any relationship, it is profession. The moment wife thinks why she should live with this guy, husband thinks why he should live with her, it is now legal prostitution. No more marriage. It is a profession. You need to do what you need to do. She need to do what she need to do. Few days before, in a city, I met two politicians. Both of them are standing for local elections. I know both of them are relatives. But in the local body meeting, they shout at each other, scream. The leader of opposition, screams at the chairman. That day evening I know both the fellows meet secretly in a place and drink together. I asked. What kind of drama is going? This fellow leader of opposition he says – Swamiji, unless I scream, he is not going to give me my share. So the whole thing is just a drama. He says I have to scream, only then I will get my share. The chairman that fellow says – no, no, no, I have to wait till he screams otherwise he will ask for more! Only after he screams, my bargain will settle. If I start giving before he screams, then he will ask extra for screaming! If I give him a crore before screaming, it is not that he will stop screaming, he will scream again and ask for one more! So I also wait till he screams, he also screams for my money. It goes on! The moment the why enters, all relationships is profession. Love does not know why. It just knows it feels good. That’s all. It just knows it feels good. That’s all! Everything is profession in the world. There is nothing called love or sacrifice. If everything is profession, then why not pick up good profession?

Picking up the good profession and respecting it as your choice is what I call svadharma. Please understand, I am defining svadharma. Picking up something which does good to you and others and respecting your choice. Understanding it is not forced on you, you have too many choices. It is you who picked it up. Respecting your choice knowing very clearly out of your freedom you picked it up. I always tell people only if you are feeling pride about your Sanyas decision, you are worthy of it. Only if you are feeling pride about your marriage decision you are worthy of it. Only when you feel pride, only when you feel wow, nothing more can be done to make my life best. As long as you think if God has given me the opportunity I would have made a better world, be very clear you do not know about your svadharma. You are atheist. Wear black shirt and be depressed. No. that is your svadharma. It is good if atheist live in depression so that they don’t spread to others. It is their svadharma. It’s actually good and I have never seen a single atheist who is not depressed. These fellows will scream, scream, scream, shout in the stage. When they go back to the room and lie down they feel – oh God! How long I can put up this way, this drama. Day in and day out you can’t put up a show and drama. That is why no atheist movement stays alive beyond the founder fool. No I have studied hundreds of atheist movements and their histories. End of the life of the founder fool is end of the atheist movement also because you can’t keep the fools together for a long time. Then they will start fighting among themselves. If there is nobody to fight they will start fighting in the left side and right side ☺

Anything you do sit and analyze and understand. Bring tremendous respect to it as your conscious and best choice. How much this media mafia tried to put me in depression saying that I am doing whatever I am doing for money. I also looked inside me and asked what is the purpose? Why am I doing what I am doing – this huge spiritual mission? Do I have any other motive, ulterior motive, behind the scene motive, behind the screen motive for this whole action? If it is money, let me make money directly. I have intelligence. I can make billion dollar company. For my hard work and the intelligence and decision making and strategy planning and ability to market, I can make a billion dollar company, I don’t have a problem. I can market anything! If the ulterior motive is just a name and fame or some Nobel prize, I can express one or two siddhis the materialization and this kind of siddhis and that siddhis will simply bring Nobel prize for me. Now the breakthrough I am going to give in the field of physics and quantum physics through all my extraordinary expression and powers, simply going to bring Nobel prize to my feet. I may not even physically go there to receive I will tell them send it, some of my swamis will represent and get it. When it comes I will tell them aiy put it on Anandeshwara. I am too busy travelling to all the temples which I cross, resting. Just put it to Anandeshwara! If the ulterior motive is something else, I can work for it directly. After thorough analyzing, I have re-confirmed once more I am very clear I want to do only what I am doing now.

Understand when you analyze, when you are convinced you want to do only what you are doing, tremendous respect for your decision happens in you. That respect gives you, that conviction gives you moral strength for what you are doing. Having moral strength for what you are doing is Svadharma. Understand, it’s like many parts of a machine is created by soft steel, some parts are put through a special process to harden those parts. The parts which are expected to go through lot of wear and tear they will be usually made to go through some process and they will be hardened. The hardened part fits properly and takes care the smooth movement of the machine is ensured. I tell you putting yourself into this research – Am I doing what I am doing out of my free conscious choice – this process will harden your decisions. Those hardened part of you, your decisions will ensure the smooth flow of the machine called your life. Those that hardening process is called teaching. The hardened parts are called your svadharma. Analyze your life. Find out whether all your major decisions are out of your conscious free choice. Is it aligning with the purpose of your life, with the purpose of your existence, with your mission? When you find out, when it clicks with you – yes! I am doing what I really wanted to do. I tell you when I went through that inner search, I finally landed Oh God! I am exactly on my track – the joy, you do not know. Of course, I always know I am on my track. But re-confirming. It is like you always know we have a feeling connection with the master. But suddenly one day in a meditation or Satsang that love awakens for some reason, some words touches you and your eyes are watery, your whole heart is melting – that re-confirmation of that feeling connection naturally brings experience called Bhaava samadhi. I was actually in bhaava samadhi for continuously few days when I re-confirmed what I am doing is my svadharma! Every child should be taught to find out his svadharma. This is should be a one more course in our Gurukul. A separate subject. Kids should study for one full year. They should be given all the understandings, ideas, self-respect they are human beings. They can fulfill their desire in any way they want, they can fulfill the purpose of their existence in any way they want. We have so much of freedom! Any part you choose, you can have anything you want and feeling of not wanting anything – the ultimate fulfillment. This clarity should be given to our kids. Of course grown up kids also! Then they should make choices. Yes, with this maturity and self-respect when you make choices, you know your svadharma.

All the people who are successful in any field knowingly or unknowingly, consciously or unconsciously are in tune with their svadharma. I tell you if you are not in tune with your svadharma, you will not be comfortable. Stress is nothing but not being in tune with your svadharma. Bhagavan dedicates more than 10 verses just to talk about Svadharma to Arjuna. Bhagavan is not for retirement. No. Please understand, always society is ruled by aggressive fellows. An aggressive fellow cannot tolerate more aggressive people because more aggressive people means too much of fight for him, survival threat, competition. So this bunch of fellow who are having power by aggression, goes on promoting telling others don’t be aggressive, that is good. It is like all the lions are telling the sheep, don’t grow up to the level of lion, it is not good. Be a sheep. That is the greatest moral. We will even build a temple for you. retirement is deitified by aggressive rulers. These fellows go on deitifying the Gurus, ideal models, role models who are in the mood of retirement. Don’t do it. I tell you the retirement being deitified is a crime. Whoever understands retirement is not the law of the life becomes a ruler, winner. This ruling community keeps this secret among themselves. But goes on promoting outside retirement is spirituality, if you are just lying and non-doing, that is a spirituality. That has become a ideal model role model all over the world, almost in all religions. How dare you guys teach blessed are those who are poor? No. Blessed are those who are creative! I tell you the secret which is preserved as the most secret of secret – among the rulers of the world, from the time immemorial, retirement is not the real life. Anything which promotes directly, indirectly moving away from life is not sacred. Unfortunately, moving away from life has been deitified. It looks sacred. If I am sitting with an ordinary simple cloth and a small wooden stool or on the floor, I will be looked as sacred by more people. But those fools alright I don’t have some more words – those fellows will be with the mental set up of deitifying the moving away from life. Who wants to die with that? No. I am sitting on the throne, wearing the silk dress just to tell, make a statement – don’t deitify poverty and retirement – anti life sentiments. Anti life sentiments are not life!

Bhagavan is saying very clearly here. I can tell you he is revealing the secret for success. Unfortunately, all of you are unconsciously programmed in every step by the rulers of the world. Retire that is good, withdraw that is good. Move out that is good. Rest that is good. Escape that is good. But Bhagavan says here – fight! That is good. I tell you this is the most guarded secret by the rulers of the world. People who have succeeded in any field in the world – the most guarded secret – retirement is not life. Retiring is not life. It’s unfortunate I can tell you the mass exploitation done by the rulers of this world is deitifying the retirement, deitifying the anti-life sentiments. See these aggressive rulers and leaders they do not want more and more aggressive people, more and more intelligent people. They want to do psychological castration. That is the right word. The moment you deitify retirement in your inner space you are reduced from bull to ox. From bull you are reduced. Now the moment being retired is deitified, withdrawing is deitified, you start fighting with your own life because life by its tendency is expression! I tell you all the fellows who show as a role model for withdrawal, I have seen their in and out. They are the worst hypocrites on the planet earth – schriziophrenia they need psychiatric treatment not with psychiatric doctors with LBT (Life bliss technology). I have seen many of the role model retirement guys in and out, behind the scene. They are the worst hypocrites. Don’t deitify non-doing. Don’t deitify not having. Person who is in being is not against doing and having. But more and more when you deitify non-having and non-doing, the internal fight starts. Arjuna was unconsciously attacked by the virus which is constantly sent by the rulers of the world – deitifying the non-doing. I tell you deitifying the non-doing is the virus spread by the rulers of the world. This is the biggest conspiracy. I have read so many conspiracy theories in the internet. The 9/11 hoax theory, the man landing on the moon – moon mission hoax theory, so many conspiracy theories I have read. I tell you this is the worst conspiracy done against the humanity – deitifying non-doing. I am a lonely voice against the deitifying non-doing. But loud voice. I will win ☺ Almost all religions, all religions suffers with deitifying the non-doing. All religious consciousness and all sacred scriptures and all monastic orders and all spiritual traditions and all religious groups suffers with this one disease syndrome deitifying non-doing. I can say d\&d syndrome – deitifying non-doing syndrome.

Bhagavan is breaking that syndrome in Arjuna. Why do you go on deitifying non-doing? So that you will have less enemies, less competition. Whatever you promote for your selfishness is not ultimate truth. Whoever comes to the power, wants to promote the idea of deitifying non-doing so that he will have less competition. This fellow is sitting in the highest power and says power is not good, running for power is not spirituality, that is not life, that is not good. Why? So that others will stop running, you will continue to hold on to this chair till death even if he can’t walk! The sacred secret in this sutra is do not deitify non-doing, retiring, escaping, moving away, disappearing. Don’t deitify. It is a conspiracy done against the humanity. Don’t get cheated in this conspiracy. Whoever comes out of this hypnotism, this mass conspiracy of deitifying the non-doing, whoever comes out of it knows his svadharma – natural law of evolution and he becomes a leader, he becomes leader! I will answer your questions for next few minutes.

Let’s start with your questions.

1) We will start with question – today I have around thousands of questions because all of you have sent your report why you are a mortal. I will take up all your reason as questions and I am reducing all those reasons, I am merging all those reasons, I am clubbing all the cases making it almost like class action law suit. Reducing it to a few points and break one by one.

See you all saying you are a mortal is literally like a class action law suit on all incarnations happening on planet earth because we go on claiming we are immortal and you are also immortal. But you go on claiming you are also mortal and we are also mortal. So it is a class action law suit. I will break one by one, point by point. Finally leave the judgment to you because I have already given the judgment for me. Please understand in this court each one have to give judgment for themselves. Nobody can judge others. If you are told by somebody, somebody who is sitting somewhere who will judge you, forget about it. Nobody has right to judge others. If somebody is going to judge you then who is going to judge that guy? Forget about it. Nobody is going to judge you. Here only the arguments can be presented. It is you who is supposed to give judgments for yourself. Incarnation is only a lawyer maybe attorney general. That’s all. Government’s representative. The representative of the cosmos that’s all. But he is not a judge. Judge is here accused himself. Accused is a judge. That is the beauty of this court. Accused himself argues for himself, attorney general gives his side argument but the final judgment is given by every individual for himself. That is the beauty of this huge universal court. That is why all of us are able to play this huge universal game. If somebody is going to judge you and if that fellow gets angry for some reason, some mood, and you say come on wind up the whole thing. what will happen? You are not sub being. Please understand you are not sub-standard beings. You are not living sub-standard life. This is the essence of Advaitha. You are not second to anybody. If there is a guard that is you. otherwise there is nobody else. That’s it. leave it. It is who, it is you who is supposed to be giving judgment now. I am presenting my arguments. In you there are two different components. I can say three components – one is you the accused, second you the lawyer, third you the judge. Now I am addressing you the judge – Oh lord! Here are my arguments. You the judge is immortal, you the accused will be mortal the moment you the judge gives the judgment that you the accused is mortal by comparing the arguments of you the lawyer and me and my arguments. The first arguments by you the lawyer. I still get angry, upset, threatened, sad and experience all other unhappy reactions. I am unable to control either my life or my death. Wow! Long submission. Lets start analyzing one by one. Let me do post mortem of these words. I still get angry, upset, threatened, sad and experience all other unhappy reactions. I wanted to ask you the moment you say you experience unhappy reactions, you already agreeing you have moments in your life where these moments are not there. Am I right? There are moments in your life when you are not angry, when you are not upset, when you are not threatened, when you are not sad, when you are not experiencing unhappy reactions. Am I right? So why don’t you start believing you are immortal only in those moments.

Please understand, I am not saying you are immortal always. I am saying you may be partially immortal. Part time immortal. Why don’t you allow immortality part time with you. Whenever you are not angry, you are not sad, you are not upset, you are not threatened, those few moments – it may be only 3 minutes in your day, half an hour in your month, one day in your year. That is okay. Why don’t you be immortal for those few minutes? I tell you it is not few minutes. It is not few hours, it is not few days. Because you never attended that part of you, it looks like too small. Anything you don’t attend much, you don’t empower much looks almost deprived in your life. You denied the existence of you immortality in your life. I tell you all of you are in denial mode as far as immortality is concerned.

Next part of the argument - I am unable to control either my life or my death. I can say. This is the best lie sorry worst lie which can be uttered. Small story – three boys were trying to share one fruit. Finally they started getting into the fight and they decided among the three who tells the best lie will get that fruit. Suddenly a pastor enters the scene and asks what is going on? The boys describe we are having a game of telling the best lie. Whoever tells the best lie will have this fruit. Pastor was really shocked – he said oh my sons! You can’t afford to play this kind of game at this age. Its wrong. At my age, at my young age, when I was at your age, I never told a lie. All three boys just stood stoic for a moment, looks at him, doesn’t know how to react. One boy suddenly shouts – aiy! Pastor gets the fruit! Leave it. ☺

This statement I am unable to control either my life or death is the worst lie! Look into so many angles. First thing even your ability to grumble you are not able to control itself is your ability to control! Not able to control means we are not even allowed to grumble, wage a war. You have a freedom to fight itself shows you have a freedom to live! Understand, if God does not want to give a control of life and death to you, he would not even allowed you to think about it. Like how the China Government filters the whole press. They don’t even allow you to even hear the word democracy or freedom. How the Sun TV does not allow people even to hear about the spiritual truths. It is not that they give you choice. They don’t even allow you to hear! God also would have done complete suppression. He would have wired your brain never to think about anything other than what he plans. The moment you have started grumbling, grudging – I am unable to control my life itself shows you have started working in the line of controlling your life! Otherwise how do you think we will even have the idea? Understand, even if the idea of democracy is allowed in a place, democracy is happening whether today or tomorrow. That’s it!

It is a question of time. If the idea of democracy is allowed to grow to be spoken, to be contemplated in a place, naturally it is going to take over that country in a month or a year. Its only question of time. Understand the moment you say I am unable to control either my life or death, the speaking discourse and democracy has started already in your heart! When the discourse and democracy has started, it is now only a question of time! The moment Gandhi starts the idea of freedom, it is now only the question of number of years or months to get the freedom. As long as the idea itself never started, British was resting in peace. But the moment idea started, it is only now question of days. I tell you the moment you started thinking I am unable to control either my life or death, already the discourse on enlightenment, discourse on freedom, discourse on immortality has already started in you! This very idea has opened the chapter of immortality in you. Now it is only the question of time or days or months. If you can think you want to control your life or death, be very clear the person who is thinking he is immortal. Otherwise who is thinking beyond life? Who is consuming sorry who is conceiving the idea about beyond death?

You say I want to control my death. Means what? There is something beyond death. There is something beyond life. The very conceiving happens only in the space what I call you the immortal. It is you the immortal who goes on funding you the mortal to keep the drama alive. Sometimes it is the ruling party which goes on funding the opposition party so that unexpected problems don’t come. At least the opposition party is the expected problem. We can continue to face it, handle it. The idea I am the immortal is the known opposition party for you. So to keep the known opposition himself as enemy, to keep the fight in the known angle, you go on funding for the opposition. This whole thing is politics by you! You the immortal is funding you the mortal. Unfortunately, you the immortal has forgotten you the immortal is funding you the mortal! The Attorney General’s job is just reminding the judge you the immortal side only is funding you the mortal side. I will present my arguments one by one in the further hearings ☺ to prove you are immortal! And of course the final judgment is in your hands.

Now sit and contemplate whatever you heard these two ideas – the svadharma and immortality. Natural law of evolution and immortality.

I bless all of you who are sitting with us around the world in thousands of places through eNtv, in 10 places through 2 way Nayana Deeksha, in hundreds of cities and many countries! Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate and share the eternal bliss Nithyananda! Thank you!
