Let us begin the morning Satsang.
1. Nithyanandam Swamiji, once we finish Inner Awakening 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 Enlightened life? Pranam. Murali Krishna- IA ID -54
There is no need for you to specially internalize my teachings, because these higher teachings have been made a part of your biomemory through this process. Inner Awakening is not a teaching program, it is a process program, where these great teachings are inserted into your biomemory beyond your mind, without even you doing anything. There is no need for your cooperation and effort. Just your openness is enough. Not only there need not be any effort, I don’t even need your cooperation, I just need your openness. Just your yes is enough for me to work on you. So you don’t need to do anything special to internalize my teachings. Maybe I will recommend this morning satsang, as a sitting with me, more like a Upanishad. Even in morning satsang, you see I just sit around, make some fun, tease some people, answer some questions in a confusing way! If you put the same question after 3 days, I give the answer in a complete different way.
In the morning satsang, the more important thing is the feeling connection when you sit and listen. See, when you sit and listen, so many things will be clear 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 which means discourse, and the other word – satsang, which is sitting with truth. Every day in morning satsang, I am asking you to sit with me with deep feeling connection, not just for words. Sat is the main thing. Sitting with the truth is the main thing.
So Murali Krishna, you don’t need any other spiritual practice or methods to internalize my teachings regularly. Sit in morning satsang every day, wherever you are, in unclutched way. All you need is just one Android! Connect and sit. Nothing else. Never miss the morning satsang. Keep this as the law for your life. I always tell our Ashramites and devotees, don’t use even death as an excuse to miss morning satsang. Die either before 7 am, so that you can be there in Akshardham attending morning satsang, or die after 7:30, so that you can be there next day! Don’t use even death as excuse for missing morning satsang. Don’t bother - if you attend every day, I will make sure the lord of death waits for you and does not disturb you during satsang time! Don’t miss morning satsang. Make this as a life. Not even to hear what I am saying, more to sit in unclutched way. Just sit unclutched. Nothing else. If any word I utter need to go inside you, it will go inside, otherwise it is ok.
2. Beloved Swamiji, you mentioned briefly about a mystical incident in your life when you walked from Tiruvannamalai to Seerkazhi, the birthplace of Saint Tiru Jnana Sambandar. Can we humbly request you to share more about that incident Swamiji? Thank you ever so much. In Nithyananda, Bhaktika.
BIO-See this was one of the mystical experiences I had, maybe after age 11, before the 1st experience of my enlightenment at twelve. There was a festival in Tiruvannamalai. Jnana Sambandar a great incarnation from South Bharat. There was an incident where Devi herself came and gave her breast milk to the baby Jnana Sambandar and made him enlightened. So that festival was going on in Tiruvannamalai temple. So I was standing there remembering that whole incident in samadhi, in ecstasy, gazing at the Jnana Sambandar deity. Just like that, Jnana Sambandar himself came out of that deity! He was having a golden cup, drinking and sprinkling it on the whole crowd, sharing it with everybody. I could see very clearly, I opened my mouth, few drops fell into my mouth. He walked straight up to me and hugged me. Before I woke up from samadhi, he disappeared. Maybe in a way you can say he entered into this very body. It was a great joy and ecstasy. In that ecstasy I was walking from Tiruvannamalai to Seerkazhi. I enquired where this incident happened in Seerkazhi. It took up to 15 days to reach Seerkazhi, I stayed here and there and reached Seerkazhi. Finally I had Darshan of see temple where that incident happened.

After that I came back to Tiruvannamalai by walk. That’s all has happened.
3. You mentioned that Goddess Parvati is the first disciple of Lord Shiva. However, the Devi Mahatyam 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 Divine Mother? Thank you Swami - Vidya IA ID No. 9
Vidya, first thing - neither Shiva is superior, nor Devi is superior. It is same energy in different forms. There are some traditions which achieved the ultimate enlightenment through Devi; they describe Devi as superior. There are some who achieve ultimate through Shiva; they describe Shiva as superior. That’s all! It is different traditions, different people’s experience. Nothing else! It is more like a process through which they became enlightened. It has nothing to do with facts. So don’t worry. If you are inclined to do worship Devi, worship Devi. That’s all. That is why, to solve this problem only, I put Shiva and Devi in one deity! Nithyanandeshwara and Nithyanandeshwari. When you bow down, look at Nithyanandeshwara or Nithyanandeshwari - I don’t have any problem. Both leads to the same truth, to the same experience, to the same Ultimate. That is why I put both in one deity. If you put them next to each other, somebody may remove one. That is why I put her in his lap and bolted it!
4. Dear Swamiji, When tears come out of devotion on listening to devotional hymns like Soundarya Lahari, Thiruvachakam etc. is it required to unclutch from that state as well in order to go deeper?- Rajesh VM, IA ID No. 72
When you unclutch even from this state, your devotion gets into such a solid form. Bhakti becomes paraa bhakti. When I say unclutch, don’t divert from that state, but dig deeper into it. When you unclutch, the lower emotions gets destroyed in you and higher emotions get strengthened in you. Please understand, when you unclutch, lower emotions get destroyed in you and higher emotions become strong in you! So unclutch anytime, anywhere, from any emotion, from any experience!
Today long sessions for IA – eN-Communication continues, and deeper and deeper sessions of Jeevan mukti and unclutching. So I will move to the next segment of the morning Satsang - Dial the Avatar.
