Redefine Yourself to Rejoice Yourself

Bhagavad Gita

(0.29)

I welcome you all with my love and respects. Today I will continue on the Bhagavad Gita, 5th chapter, sanyasa yoga, 24th verse.

(0.43)

Yontas-sukhon-taraa-raamaha

tathaantar-jyoti-revayaha

sa yogee brahma-nirvaanam

brahma-bhooto-dhigacchati

(1.05)

yaha....antaha…..

(1.27)

I have spelled out every word separately. So that even with little Sanskrit knowledge you can understand directly without translation.

But I will give you the translation also. The one who is happy within, rejoicing with himself, and who is illumined, is the contemplative saint, who is absorbed in the supreme and has reached the state of Oneness with the ultimate.

Bhagavan is emphasising, rejoicing within with a beautiful word.

(2.12)

"yaha antaha sukhaha, yontas sukhaha ".

(2.26)

All of us know we will have to be happy within, rejoicing within ourselves. How to do? Please understand. What you think as you should be redefined, restructured, only then you will be able to be in joy within yourself.

A Man who thinks he is only a body cannot be just happy within himself with few ideas. No, he cannot be happy within himself. Just with remembrance of some higher ideas. He needs something physical to make him joyful, to bring pleasure to him.

But the person who thinks himself more as a mind, a person who thinks himself more as ideas, he will be satisfied within himself just with few higher ideas.

(3.50)

Please understand, you have different planes, Physical plane, Mental plane, Emotional plane and Spiritual plane.

More part of your time and life is spent in physical plane. If more part of you is centred on physical plane, naturally you need physical things to keep yourself in joy, in good mood, entertaining.

If you are more in the mental plane, more mental things will keep you in joy. I have seen in the life. For some people just if they get the food and sex they are in the heaven nothing else is required. They don't bother about what is happening around.

There are some people if they just get ideological victory. For example the party with which they support, if that party wins in the election, that is enough. They don't need anything else. They will not even ask for food. They will not even go back to their house. They will not even bother about the family.

Just ideological victory, he feels as if he became a CM, Chief Minister. He became a Prime Minister. Just that victory he is happy, he is content.

There are some people who are completely centred on emotion. Just remembrance of their beloved; if they are devoted to God or devoted to a Guru. Just the remembrance they feel happy within.

(5.41)

So understand which part of you has grown more, more strong that part makes the decision. That that part decides what is going to bring happiness to you. What is going to bring satisfaction to you.

So straight away if you start working, "let me be happy within". That is not going to happen. Create right idea about yourself. Create right attitude about yourself. Create right understanding about yourself. Right Attitude, understanding about yourself will make you understand what is going to satisfy you.

Sit and think through. I can even make a questionnaire and give you. Based on your inclinations, what makes you excited, whether thinking about something or enjoying something or doing something.

Sit and do soul searching. When you start doing the soul searching, you will know most of your energy is based on physical plane, mental plane, emotional plane, or spiritual plane.

(7.24)

Based on the plane in which you are established you can understand and realise, how is the satisfaction going to be? Are you going to be happy? Are you going to be satisfied? Are you going to be settled? Are you going to be happy from within?

That will be decided only based on the idea, personality you carry about yourself. So raise yourself to the more and more subtle and subtle levels. Again and again and again idea about you should be altered in you, raised to the subtle levels.

Only when you Raise yourself to the Subtle levels, you will learn the art of being happy with yourself.

(8.30)

I will further answer your questions to throw more insight on great and deeper truths.

(8.39)

We have a question from a devotee from Mumbai. The devotee is asking,

"Beloved Swamiji,

In the two weeks that you were away on your Kailash pilgrimage, 4 new controversies have come up regarding you in the media. You were even known in the media as controversial Swami.

Can you tell us what is the role of controversies in your mission"?

(9.09)

The devotee is asking, in the two weeks that you are away on your Kailash pilgrimage, 4 new controversies have come up, regarding you in the media. You were even known in the media as controversial Swami. Can you tell us what is the role of controversies in your mission?

(9.30)

, First thing understand, let me define controversy. When there is something standing in front of you, too tall, too strong which you can't neglect and which you don't want to accept you call that as a controversy.

It is too strong in front of you. Reminding you some ideology, some truth which you don't want to accept, you don't want to listen. Now how to escape from it. How to avoid it. So put the label controversy.

Who creates controversy? You create the controversy and you put the label also. See, you see first you create a frame with what is non controversy? And you yourself try to put that object into the frame and then you yourself create the idea controversy and you go on spreading it.

(10.45)

See, it is a British method. If you want to kill a dog, first call that as a mad dog, then you can kill. Same way, the British influenced media, the media which is still carrying British influence, which wants to destroy everything Vedic and everything Hindu tradition.

They are not able to tolerate the good work we are doing. So they go on creating something called controversy. They create the idea frame of 'what is Swami'? and then they project that on me and they themselves create the idea of controversy and they spread that controversy idea again.

I am only surprised about one thing, 2 weeks, 15 days they created only four controversies. That seems to be very less in number. I think they are also tired.

Controversies are nothing but the way you vomit the poison you carry inside and misunderstanding you carry inside. The hatred you carry inside. It is like a hate campaign. When they can't justify their hatred they call that as controversy, that is all.

(12.12)

The next question is from Puja Bhatt from Delhi.

She is asking,

" Beloved Swamiji,

Jesus was crucified, Meera was tortured, Osho was poisoned, you are being convicted everyday by the media.

Please help us understand.

(12.31)

Pooja Bhatt I think the same answer for you also. Many socially irresponsible media, which does not want to look into the reality goes on spreading lies. One big problem is it is an unequal war.

See, if I don't respond to them, they go on write what they want. If I respond to them they become more angry and write what they want. So there is no way whether you respond or not they are going to do what they are going to do.

Nobody even asked the arguments of Jesus. Before even listening to his arguments he was convicted. Nobody listened to the Meeras side of story. Before that itself the tortures and punishments were given. Nobody even heard Osho side of story. He was poisoned. So nobody is ready to listen to my side of the story.

This is the usual drama, always happens when there is some extraordinary intelligence expresses through human body. This time I request all our devotees to be very careful that we all stand together strongly, so that we don't see the end.

What has happened to Osho, Meera and Jesus, we will see the end which has happened to Rama and Krishna. We will win the game this time this time. We will not lose the game, we will win the game.

(14.40)

It is usual, the unconscious mass, the unconscious socially irresponsible media always attacks without understanding. When they don't understand anything when there is something new, the resistance is the first response they create.

So we are also going through the first response. But let us stand strong with tremendous patience, face it and we will win the game. We are winning the game already. We are winning the game.

Don't worry, understand this resistance was there in all of you in the beginning. It is like a journey. Whoever has crossed that resistance of become devotees. Whoever has crossed the resistance completely become disciple. Whoever has not crossed the resistance are still standing outside as media, that is all.

Understand it is like standing in a queue. People who are in the queue ahead are disciples. People who are in the queue in the middle are devotees. People who are in the queue in the last are media, that is all.

So today's disciple you ask, yesterday's media, today's media will be tomorrow's disciple. It is natural. This is the way life will be flowing.

(16.16)

The next question is from Tom Walker from Netherlands.

He is asking,

I read in the magazine recently when film producer, Madan Patel was making the defamatory film about you titled satyananda. 8 celebrity actors turned down the offer to play your role saying that they were afraid you would curse them.

We know that you never curse anyone Swamiji, but we can't relay terrible things that are happening to all those who are torturing you. Why and how is this happening?

(16.49)

It is a very funny question. The questionare is asking,I read in a magazine recently when a film producer, Madan Patel was making the defamatory film about you titled satyananda. 8 celebrity actors turned down the offer to play your role saying that they were afraid you would curse them.

We know that you never curse anyone Swamiji. But we can't deny the terrible things that are happening to all those who are torturing you. Why and how is this happening?

(17.31)

Please understand one thing I want to make it very clear once more, "I never curse anybody". But Cosmos does not leave, the universe never leaves the people who tried to torture or disturb enlightened beings. Because enlightened beings are the ultimate fruit and flower of the universal tree.

The universe struggles so much for one enlightened being to flower or fruitify. So Universe, God never tolerates, if there is some danger or disturbance or torture is done to his hard earned enlightened Masters.

(18.23)

Please understand, enlightened beings does not happen just like a breeze or an accident. Even breeze does not happen just like a breeze. Even behind breeze there is so much of hard work. So behind every enlightened being, Cosmos has put so much of hard work.

Picking up the right body, right mind ,right training ,and ripening and becoming an enlightened one. To bring an enlightened being to planet Earth, it takes so much for the universe, for the Cosmos, for the God consciousness, for the divine energy ; it does not want to keep quiet when they are disturbed. It does not want to keep quiet if there unnecessarily tortured.

That is why when somebody tries to torture the enlightened beings, Karma goes back to them. Strong bad karmas happen to them. They suffer immediately.

I wanted to remind this beautiful story from Bhagavatam. Bhagavatam says; somebody asks Suka brahmarishi," what happens to all the good Karma and bad karmas done by the enlightened beings? Because they don't suffer any Karma". What is happening to the result of good and bad work done by the enlightened beings?

(20.10)

Bhagavatam says very clearly, Enlightened Masters do not do anything bad. They do only good. But if anybody tries to harm enlightened beings they receive tremendous bad Karma.

I will give you one example .See for example, I heal people, when I heal they become; when they get healed they are so happy and they are very grateful, that happiness comes as a good Karma to me. But that disease I remove from the body, from their body that bad Karma remains.

I neither enjoy their gratitude, good Karma nor suffer their bad Karma, the disease, bad Karma. Then where it goes? All the people who support my mission, devoted, all of them receive these good karmas. All the people who abuse, attack try to torture they receive the bad karmas.

And I have healed too many people, too many lakhs of people. I have lot of good Karma and lot of bad Karma. That is why people who support receive lot of good things. People who try to abuse, torture receive lot of bad Karma.

(21.50)

Understand in both sides, I have too much of stock. Whoever wants whatever they take it. It is up to them not related to me. I don't interfere at all in the scene. It is they who decide.

So Bhagavatam is very clear when it says, people who try to abuse and torture the enlightened beings receive these bad Karma. They are right. In my case I am seeing in front of the eyes. Many fellows who trird to torture and abuse us, receiving bad karmas and suffering. Even though I don't curse them or I don't think bad for them.

(22.41)

The next question is from Geeta from London, UK,

she is asking,

Swamiji,

Bharatn dances have become very popular in UK and UK schools have weekly two hour classes where students can opt for sports or Bharatn dances. Recently Prime Minister Cameroon made a statement that he will abolish the two hour classes as people opt for Bharatn dances and not Sports.

He says, "this is a waste and doesn't develop any skills". SwamiJi," is UK Prime Minister's comment correct? Please tell us about the significance of Bharatn dances".

(23.20)

I wanted to send this message directly to the UK Prime Minister, Cameroon. Please understand, if people are enjoying then really they must be having some inner satisfaction.

Please understand, Bharatn dances come directly from the meditative state. Bharatn dance is used to induce meditative space, benefits of meditation into people who can't just sit quietly close their eyes and try to practice meditation.

If you feel meditation is too difficult for you, sitting quite with closed eyes, try Bharatn dancing for 1 hour. Automatically your body and mind will fall into the meditative state. And all the good benefits of meditation will happen in you.

So Bharatn dance comes out of meditation and takes you to meditation. The UK Prime Minister need to understand because it takes people to the meditative mood people opt for the Bharatn dance.

See, I am not against the sports. I request UK Prime Minister to allot 2 more hours for sports. But do not cancel, do not abolish the two hours of Bharatn dance classes because, people are getting the benefit of meditation through movement.

Meditation through sound is Bharatn music. Meditation through movement is Bharatn dance. Everything from Vedic tradition from Bharat is from meditation. Preparing your body for meditation is yoga.Preparing the food for your meditative mood is Bharatn cooking. Preparing your place of living for meditation is Bharatn architecture.

(26.07)

I tell you, everything whether it is architecture, cooking, music, dance, everything Bharatn is from meditation, for meditation.

So I request UK Prime Minister, please understand, all the school kids in your country are enjoying, receiving the benefits of meditation through the Bharatn dance. Please do not abolish, their intelligence is growing.Their physical strength is growing, their flexibility is growing.

The classical Bharatn dance is from meditation and that raises you to the mood of meditation. Thank you.

So with this I will conclude today's morning satsang. We will continue to have Satsang everyday. I bless you all, who are sitting with us around the world at this moment. 856 places through Nithyananda TV. 19 places through two way video conferencing having Nayana Deeksha. In 213 cities in 24 countries around the world.

(27.49)

Let you all achieve, experience, live, express, radiate, share and explode in eternal bliss, Nithyananda. Thank you.
