I welcome you all with my love and respects. Let’s begin our morning satsang, start the questions.

(Questioner): The first question is from Murali Krishna, IA, ID No 54. He is asking, Nithyanandam Swamiji. Swami, once we finish IA when we go out into society, do we need to internalize your teachings regularly. I don’t remember all of them. Can you please guide me what to do, so that I can live an enlightened life?

Murali Krishna IA ID NO 54.

Swamiji: Murali Krishna, first thing, there is no need for you to do anything special to internalize my teachings, because these higher truths and experiences are made as part of your bio-memory through this whole process.

I...I want all of you to know, Inner Awakening is not teaching program, it is process program, where, these great truths are inserted into your bio-Memory, beyond, your mind, without even you, need to do anything. There is no need for your cooperation, there is no need for your effort. Just your openness is more than enough. Not only there is no need for your effort, I don’t even need your cooperation. I just need your openness, nothing else. Your ‘Yes’, nothing else. Please understand, just your ‘yes’ is enough, for me to work on you. So you don’t need to do anything special, to internalze my teachings. Maybe I will recommend this morning satsang, as a sitting with me, the Upanishad, more as a Upanishad. Otherwise if you see in the morning satsang all I do is come and joke around, make some fun, tease some people, answer few questions, in a most confusing way. You see, if you put the same question, after three days, you will never imagine how such a complete different answer comes from me.

And if you, compare both the answers, I am not responsible. I can 100% assure, you will go crazy. In the morning Satsang the more important thing is ‘Feeling connection’. When you sit and listen, you see, when you sit and listen, so many things will be cleared to you that beyond my words, something else is happening, something else is being done. So please understand that something else is Satsang. Satsang is not Pravachan. In Sanskrit we have two words; Pravachana is discourse, Satsang is, sitting with the truth. 04:02 Every morning, I am asking you to sit in Satsang, to sit with me with a deep feeling connection, not just to listen to the words. The words are immaterial. Whether you listen or not, not a problem at all. Satsang is the main thing. Sitting with the truth is the main thing. So, Murali Krishna, you don’t need any other spiritual practice or method to internalize my teachings regularly. 04:45 You need only one thing, sit in the morning Satsang every day wherever you are, in un-clutched way. All you need is just one Android. Connect and sit, nothing else. Nothing else. Never miss the morning Satsang. Keep this as a law for your life. I always tell for our ashramites and devotees, don’t use even death as excuse to miss morning Satsang. Die, either before 7 o’clock, so that you can be there in ‘Aksharadam’ with me, attending the morning Satsang, or die after 9.30 so that you can be there for next day Satsang. Don’t use even death as an excuse to miss the Satsang.

Attend the Satsang, don’t bother, if you are regularly attending, I will make sure the Lord of Death waits for you and he does not disturb you during the Satsang time. Don’t miss morning Satsang. Make this as a life. Morning Satsang not even to hear what I am saying, more to sit in un-clutched way. Just sit un-clutched. Nothing else. If any words which I utter need to go inside you, it will go inside, otherwise it is okay.

So, don’t miss morning Satsang. I don’t feel you need to do any other spiritual practice, any other technique or process, to internalize my teachings to make you live enlightened. Just Satsang, nothing else. ‘Yes’ for Satsang, that’s enough. Next.

(Questioner) : The next question is from Ma Baktika, who is asking: Beloved Swamiji, on the 27th of April, you were Coronated as the 293rd Guru Maha Sannidhanam, of the ancient Madurai Adheenam. You mentioned briefly, about a mystical incident in your life when you walked from Tiruvannamalai to Seerkazhi, the birthplace of Saint Thirugnanasambandar. Can we humbly request you, to share more about that incident Swamiji. Thank you ever so much, thank you and Nithyananda Ma Bhaktika.

Swamiji: See this was one of the mystical visions I had in my life, maybe after 11, before the first experience, before the enlightenment. There was a festival in Tiruvannamalai temple. That Gnanasambandar, a great saint from South Bharat, an incarnation from South Bharat. There was a incident that Devi herself came and gave her breast milk to Gnanasambandar and made him enlightened.

So that festival, was going on in Tiruvannamalai temple. So I was standing there, remembering that whole incident and in Samadhi, in ecstacy, gazing at that Gnanasambandar’s Deity. Just like that, I saw, Gnanasambandar himself came out of that Deity, and I saw he was having a cup, golden cup milk, in his hand, drinking, and sprinkling it on the whole crowd, sharing it with everybody. I could see very clearly. I opened my mouth and few drops fell into my mouth, and Gnanasambandar straight walked up to me, kind of a hugged, and before I could wake up, I could realise, he disappeared!

Maybe in a way you can see that, he entered into this body. It was a strong experience, I was in a great joy. Ah, in that ecstacy I straight started walking, from Tiruvannamalai to Seerkazhi. I enquired, where is Seerkazhi, I wanted to see where this incident happened, and, I got the information, immediately started to walking up to Seerkazhi. It took around 15 days, for reaching Seerkazhi. I stayed on the way here and there, one day two day like that and reached Seerkazhi. Finally, I had the Darshan of Seerkazhi temple and where that incident happened, then after that, this is the Seerkazhi temple, you can see (Picture of Seerkazhi temple is shown). After that, I came back to Tiruvannamalai by walk. That is all has happened. Next.

(Questioner): The next question is: You mentioned that Goddess Parvathi is the first disciple of Lord Shiva. However the Devi Mahatiam portrays Divine mother as the superior energy. Why is Shiva considered superior to Devi, in some traditions & scriptures, and vice versa? Could you please explain the significance and difference between Devi and Shiva worship? Why are some of us inclined towards the worship of the Divine Mother? Thank you Swami, Vidya, IA ID no 9

Swamiji: Vidya. Nice. First thing, neither Siva is superior nor Devi is superior, it is same energy in different form. There are some traditions which achieved that ultimate consciousness through the form of Devi. They describe Devi as superior. There are some energy which has, achieved the ultimate through Siva and they describe Siva as superior. That is all, it is different traditions, different people’s experiences. There is nothing else, this is more like a process through which they become enlightened. It has nothing to do with fact.

So don’t worry. If you are inclined towards the worship of Devi, worship Devi, that’s all. Nothing wrong. That is the ultimate, go ahead with it. That is why, to solve this problem only I put Siva and Devi in one Deity - Nithyanandeswara and Nithyanandeswari. If you worship one you have to worship the other one. You can’t separate. So, when you bow down, look at Nithyanandeswara or Nithyanandeswari, I don’t have a problem. So it is up to you, but both leads to the same truth, to the same experience, to the same ultimate. See, that is why I put both into the same deity. I did not even want to put one next to each other. Even if you put one next to each other, somebody may remove it. That is why I put it on the lap and bolted it, so you can never remove the other. Next.

(Questioner): The next question is from Rajesh PM, IA ID no 72. Who is asking, Dear swamiji, when tears come out of devotion on listening to devotional hymns like Soundarya Lahari, Thiruvasagam etc, is it required to un-clutch from that state as well in order to go deeper? Rajesh PM, IA Id no 72.

Swamiji: Rajesh, when you un-clutch even from this state, your devotion will get into such a solid form, bhakti will become Parabhakti. When I say un-clutching, don’t divert your attention, dig deep into it. When you un-clutch, the higher emotions gets solidified in you, lower emotions gets destroyed in you. Please understand when you un-clutch, lower emotions get destroyed in you, higher emotions get strengthened in you, strong in you. So, un-clutch anytime anywhere from any emotion, from any experience.
