QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
1. Suman, Kolkata, Bharat:
My dear Swamiji, In yesterday’s satsang you advised a mother not to pass on her negative patterns to her child. This got me really scared, because I feel that I am doing exactly that with my 4-year-old daughter! After all I am nothing but a bundle of habits and patterns, what else will I pass on to her? Swamiji, can you give me some tips on how unenlightened parents can bring up their child to live an enlightened life?
Suman, there is no way an unenlightened parent can bring up child in an enlightened way. But I can give you one thing. You also start practicing an enlightened cognizance. What is enlightened cognizance? It is not unachievable. Whenever you are responding, look at it and see, is it bringing happiness to you, is it bringing happiness to others? Whatever you learnt in class 1 and class 2 - those basic truths! But only thing, it has to be drilled deeper into you. See, every man at one level stops responding spiritually and says, No I need to be practical. That level where you stop responding spiritually and start being practical - that needs to be addressed, that’s all. It just depends on your depth. Nothing else. Suman, you may be unenlightened is forgivable, but if you are not Living Enlightenment, that is not forgivable. Not being enlightened is forgivable, tolerable, but not Living enlightenment is not forgivable, that is your freedom…. I have no sympathy for you then. You need to be taught a lesson. You need to learn. It is time you start living enlightenment. It is not something impossible. Just the basic truths. Understanding that much of your responses are chemical responses. Understanding that your anger, your greed, your lust, your fear, all of them have no base. Just understanding.
See, I am handling so many millions of bodies and minds, doing millions of psychological surgeries. Every time I solve somebody’s problem, it is like a psychological surgery. First I should make him understand that I can solve the problem - that is the anesthesia. Then giving him the subtle confidence and start listening to the problems - that is opening the wound, then giving solution - that is performing surgery. Then giving post-surgery care - that is meditation. After performing thousands of surgeries I tell you - the moment human beings feel that they are unenlightened, they close all possibilities. Being unenlightened is not a crime, but not living enlightenment is a crime. You being unenlightened is not just your responsibility. God is also responsible. But not living enlightenment, only you are responsible.
When you say, I am just a bundle of patterns and habits, don’t think you are great and honest. I don’t want you to be just honest. I want you to be authentic. I am not interested in your honesty. I want you to be authentic. Many of these pornographic autobiographies have become very popular, not because of their honesty, but because of the pornographic effect of it! When people read that, they go through the experience psychologically. So I am not interested in your honesty, I am interested in your authenticity. Honesty means talking the same thing again and again. Authenticity means living the solution. Live the life. Authenticity is all you need. Just do one thing. Just get a 2-way connection and whenever you watch the Satsang, keep your child also there and see how he grows. Don’t think they will not understand. They understand better than you!
(aside to two-way participants)
See this little guy in Atlanta! I want to give him the name Nithya Rocketer - he keeps sending rockets to my photo all the time!
You don’t know the power of kids. The whole thing gets recorded in their memory. If the mountain cannot come to Mohammed, then take Mohammed to the mountain! If you want to bring up kids, first option, get them to our Gurukul. If that is not possible, make Gurukul in your house! Have 2-way connection. Let them just sit and listen, listen, listen - that is enough. But Suman, don’t take the risk of continuing to have this patterns, and pass on your patterns to the next generation.
2. Mark Williams, Toronto Canada: My dear Swamiji, I was just blown away by what you said in Dial-the-Avatar the other day, about the guru-disciple relationship being like a Black Hole & Big Bang! Can you please speak more on this?
When you enter into me, you disappear into something beyond you - that is what we call as black hole. When you disappear into something beyond your comprehension, that is black hole. What is big bang? Whenever you see something beyond your comprehension, it is Big Bang! When I enter into you, it is Jeevan Mukti, when you enter into me, it is Videha mukti. Big Bang means initiation… (WORDS MISSING HERE?) Someday ,suddenly you will feel - even the trace of old identity is not there in you!
bio-I felt this when I left the house and went to Ramakrishna Mission. Just within few days, I can say a week, I felt like as If I was washed! I forgot many of the dear things in my life. I forgot Arunachala temple - that is the dearest thing for me in my life. I forgot the structure of Arunachala temple! After a month, somebody asked me about Arunachala temple. I realized – Oh, God! I forgot about it. Earlier, first thing in the morning I will jump into the temple, and last thing in the night I will jump from temple to my bed. But I just forgot! When your identity moves away from you, something completely new happens in you, something completely new takes over you. The new taking over you is Big Bang. Buddha’s enlightenment is black hole, Shankara’s enlightenment is Big Bang. Shankara constantly talks about Poornatva and Buddha constantly talks about shoonyatva. But both are one and the same - and you cannot understand both!
I will be constantly speaking, you will never be able to hear anything, but your heart will be listening. Me speaking, and you not hearing, but whatever I am saying, your heart will be listening - that is what is Upanishad! I tell you, working with the master and directly doing work as per his guidance and instructions is an extended and continuous learning process. That clarifies many of the spiritual truths, makes you understand Living Enlightenment and makes Living enlightenment possible. Live it! So even though you don’t understand, I will make one more statement - Black hole is making you whole, Big bang is bang to wake you up! Black hole is making you as whole, Big bang is Inner Awakening. Understand, biggest bang on your consciousness is Inner Awakening! Receive that biggest bang, you will become whole.
3. Eva Whitley, London UK: Dear Swamiji, after attending Inner Awakening, I find that I’m just not able to relate to my old job and life in the same way. I want to be more tolerant, but sometimes I feel like I am just bursting out of my earlier identity. I think my husband especially is concerned and scared. How to handle this new life Swamiji?
Eva, I want you to see the Matrix movie. It is exactly your situation - the people who have woken up. I tell you, it is a beautiful problem to have. It is thousand times greater than the problem sleeping people are having. I tell you, the ultimate comfort of a sleeping man is much worse than the greatest problem a woken-up man can have. Understand, a woken-up man having problems is much better than the comfort of a sleeping man. That is not life. Eva, as on now, you need a little patience, tolerance. But you should not compromise. Having tolerance and patience is different, compromising is different. You should not come down in your spiritual cognizance. Don’t come down from that. Add little more tolerance. Try to turn a blind eye for some problems. That is allowed. Out of compassion, you can just turn your eyes the other side. But you yourself should not bend, should not come down from the way you take decisions. The spiritual cognitive shift should not be reduced. And show a little tolerance. Don’t worry, your husband will not be scared. He will only be happy. Just don’t allow your ego to fight with people. Bring confidence. Confidence will always bring tolerance. When I can tolerate you, you can tolerate anybody! Just remember this one statement!
4. Shailesh, Hyderabad, Bharat
Respected Swamiji, during the daily kriya, whenever we are asked to hold our breath for a long time, a lot of fear comes up and I start gasping for breath. I never manage to do the kumbhaka properly. Why do I have this fear? How to get over it?
{Comments on Bharatn History and culture}
Shailesh, one of the worst thing happened to you Bharatns is, you guys have lost the truth that you can be without thoughts. See, fear of kumbhaka, holding the breath, is fear of being without thoughts. You are afraid of being without thoughts. Even if you are without thoughts for a few moments, the Consciousness will grip you, the consciousness will conquer you, the consciousness will capture you. Your mind will be replaced by consciousness. You will wake up - which is too much!
You Bharatns had only one thing – the wealth of consciousness. You lost it after Independence. Now Bharat, you are a perfect beggar. Because the only wealth you had was Consciousness, and you lost it. And you are not even aware of it. Wake up Bharat! I am telling with tremendous pain. Any poverty is okay for Bharat, but not spiritual poverty. We never built our identity on wealth. We built our identity on spiritual richness. When Europe was going through the Dark Age, when there was no civilization, when there were only tribals, we had buildings built in granite reaching the sky, for our Ideology, for our spiritual richness, in a corner of Tanjavur. Understand, the identity of Bharat is spiritual richness - when you lost that, you lost everything.
Sailesh, you are the new-gen of Bharat, who has no Bharatn gene! You are the new-gen without Bharatn gene. I feel sad for you, Sailesh, and the new generation of Bharat. It is nothing but simply trusting that you can live without thoughts, and it is good for you. Just remember this one idea when you are gasping for breath, suddenly you will be able to do kumbhaka for a long time. If you are having difficulty, gasping for breath during kumbhaka, just remember - it is nothing but fear of being in thoughtless state. Nothing wrong. Relax from the fear of being thoughtless; you will be able to hold your breath for long time - simply the kumbhaka will happen.
Fear of holding breath, fear of kumbhaka, is nothing but fear of being in a thoughtless space. I tell you, when the fear of thoughtless pace disappears, even little bit of yoga will make you have a long breath. Long breath creates a new energy in you, life in you. It creates samaana in you. Actually the purpose all yoga, kumbhaka, meditation, pranayama, techniques, everything, is to create 1200 long breaths per day. Even if you work heavily in akhaada, the maximum you will have is 400 long breaths. But if you work sincerely whole da,y you will naturally have long breath. So all these 2012 Project guys, understand, when you are working whole day with me, you will have long breaths. I will make you have long breaths. Anyhow, today also we will work on it. We will continue our 2012 project - we can say 2012 Enlightenment Project! After the satsang, we will continue the 201 2 project.
Now I will move to the next part of the Satsang – Dial the Avatar.
1. E-pada puja – 2. E-pada puja – Mithila and Senthil – Los Angeles. In 2 days, I will get her out of the ICU. Give me 48 hours, I will get her out of ICU. 3. Ravi and Shivangi – Austin. Start applying, within the next 48 hours you will get a job. I will make all the three happen…. 4. E-pada puja - Helene From Paris
See, now actually it is 4 am in France. From 2 am they are sitting, just to get this one word on this call. Sometimes I am surprised… Hats off to their dedication. Blessings to all you guys! I think you guys have more concern about helping the world than me!
I bless you all who are sitting with us at this moment around the world in places through eNtv, in 1078 34 places through 2 way Video conferencing, in 260 cities, 29 countries!
