To those of you who are new to Reflect Radio I am just going to give a brief introduction of myself and then we are going to just flow into the program.

He is a spiritual head of the world's oldest apex body of Hinduism. He is revered as a living Incarnation as Super Consciousness by millions, millions worldwide. And we are going to learn more about Him now. I just want to briefly describe my personal interaction with Him. I was blessed to live in California, I recently moved about six months ago and I was blessed to be able to visit His temple in Los Angeles for many many years. It was a beautiful energetic space of healing and comfort and beautiful people. So without further adieu I would like to welcome His Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda to Reflect Radio. Namaste Swamiji.

Swamiji: Namaste, namaste. Thank you for hosting Me and it's nice to speak to you all. And I also welcome all the Reflect Radio listeners in Los Angeles and everywhere. Namaste.

Shelli: Beautiful and Swamiji I just want you to talk to people, tell them a little bit about you, people who have never heard of you before. Tell them who you are and how you came to the present moment in time.

Swamiji: I am born in south Bharat, southern part of Bharat. Brought up in a very spiritual background. My hometown is the largest Shiva temple and it is a beautiful spiritual ambiance where I was able to grow up with the right teachings and right spiritual practices. And I was recognized as an Incarnation by my predecessors and trained and initiated into Yoga and all the eastern mystical sciences like Enlightenment, Tantra, Vedanta. And at the age of 17 I left the home to carry on with my mission. I walked the length and breadth of Bharat, studying under monasteries, learning from various sources. And sharing whatever I learnt, so finally settled in Bangalore started continuing my spiritual teaching and enriching the world. Then took the responsibility of the oldest monastery in Hinduism as a spiritual head. Now I am sitting with you all to enrich everyone of you with whatever I learnt from Hinduism and my predecessors

Shelli: Beautiful, now your teaching, your core message is about Living Enlightenment. Swamiji: Yes Shelli: Please tell people what, what does that mean "Living Enlightenment", to someone who wouldn't understand that. Swamiji: I can say Living Enlightenment means living the Enlightened Space in your life, means no powerlessness, always feeling powerful, excited, blissful, is living enlightenment. I give four principles, important principles for Living Enlightenment, one: Integrity, two: Authenticity, three: Responsibility, fourth: Enriching yourself and others. These four steps or I can say these four principles are the principles of Living Enlightenment. Basically human beings can live complete powerful space, they don't need to go through the powerless space. Because of our continuous suffering patterns, the powerlessness patterns rooting, brooding over patterns, we again and again infuse suffering into our thinking and living. So finding out the root pattern we carry and completing with it, living continuously in a powerful space as a Inner Awakened being is Living Enlightenment.

Shelli: Beautiful, now you mentioned completion, completing. With one who doesn't understand that, what do you mean when you talk about completing (inaudible 6:45)?

Swamij: See from the young age we develop patterns which puts us in a very powerless space, which puts us in a very inadequate cognition. Our past inadequate, powerless experiences makes us live with inadequate cognition even in the present moment. So it affects our present life. It makes us live a very powerless life. Finding out the root pattern which is reason, cause for our inadequate cognition, and completing with it, liberates us from all the sufferings, incomplete patterns, incomplete engraved memories. In Sanskrit we use the word Karma. Karma is nothing but incomplete engrams, incomplete patterns, incomplete bondages, bondages of past baggage. If we go through the process of completion then suddenly not only you are liberated from the inadequate cognition of the past, so much of vast inner space is available for new creation.

Shelli: Beautiful Swamiji: Yes.

Shelli: Now what is the (inaudible 8:38) what is important for people to have Spirituality and have that Living Enlightenment in this world that we are living in now.

Swamiji: See Spirituality is nothing but science of living. Actually Spirituality is why, actually Spirituality is the answer for the question,"Why is life?" I can't understand if somebody asks, "Why is Spirituality?" Actually they should ask, "Why is life?" Anybody ask "Why is life?" They are living Enlightenment. When people ask "Why is Living Enlightenment?" I tell them, "No, ask the right question. Why is life?" When you encounter with the great "Why?" in your life at some point in time. Please understand every human being at some point in time encounters the great "Why?", in the life. When you face the great "Why?" you become Awakened Being. In Hinduism we call that Awakened Being as Dvija, reborn. Unfortunately when you don't know the path or methodology or a way to face the question, you fall into depression. So every human being, if they ask the question "Why life?" in a right way, they will be Living Enlightenment. Living Enlightenment is the one and only solution to be out of depression, and suicidal tendencies, above all the constant agitation we carry and the constant suffering we give it to our self. And all the bigger problems the modern day world is facing, modern youth is facing like a drugs, Facebook addiction. Whatever maybe the addictions, I tell you inadequate cognition is responsible. And Living Enlightenment is the best, in a way I can say, only way to get rid of all these dangers humanity is facing.

Shelli: Now let's talk a little bit about your 21-day Inner Awakening Yoga and Mediation retreat.

Swamiji: In this program the title, the name of the program Inner Awakening itself is self explanatory. It awakens your inner Being, your inner Self. So in the first four days you learn about the power of completion and power of listening, power of completion with yourself, you are helped to find the root of the conflicting patterns you carry. You are taught the Science of Completion with yourself and all the sufferings you create for you. The second level, next six days people are made to live and understand the Science of Completion with themself and others. The third level, next 11 days, so totally 21 days, the third level next 11 days you are taught and made to experience the Science of Creation. So first level, first four days, the Science of Completion, completing with yourself. Second six days completing with yourself and others. Third 11 days, creation, creating a new reality for you, as you want. So this three put together is the 21 day process, where you learn completion with yourself, Completion with others, and creation. Thank you.

Shelli: Beautiful, and where does this Inner Awakening take space? Where do people actually have (inaudible 13:14)

Swamiji: I have a, I have a beautiful temple Monastery complex in south Bharat, when Bangalore. This a very beautiful Temple Monastery complex, in this place the program happens. Actually Inner Awakening level one and level two, you can do it even from your own country, your own city, even from your own home. So Inner Awakening level three you have to be physically here in this Temple Monastery complex. It is a beautiful energy field, radiating the energy of living tomb's of earlier Enlightened Masters, my predecessors. Here we have the living tomb if you are introduced to Buddhism and Hinduism, there is a living tomb concept in Hinduism and Buddhism, where Enlightened Masters leave the body but bodies will not show any sign of death or decay. Like Paramhamsa Yogananda, His body is there in Los Angeles. After He left the body, after medically He was declared dead, more than 21 days, 3 weeks, His body did not show any signs of death or decay. So the same way when Masters leave their body, their burial place is called living tomb. Here in this energy field, in my Temple Monastery complex, there is a beautiful living tomb, where thousand-year-old Banyan tree is there and this place was a worship center for last thousand years. And we have created now the all possible modern amenities, you can come and experience the third level program here. First level and second level you can do it either in any one of our Temples nearest your home or in your home itself. From your home itself you can attend, you can learn more about this whole program by visiting our website InnerAwakening.org.

Shelli: Beautiful, well for those people who want to learn more about you. Maybe do one of your tools or techniques. I am thinking about you the beautiful meditation that you created for Eternal Bliss. Tell people about that and what it does and where that came from.

Swamiji: Excuse me. Yes, now I can repeat, now I can answer. Shelli: Ok.

Swamiji: The, basically meditation is nothing but completing with all the unconscious, subconscious incompletions we carry in our inner space. Through the mediation process you complete with all the unconscious, subconscious processes and once the completion with you is done, automatically the tremendous peace happens in you. The inner peace and the result of the inner peace, the inner Bliss, starts happening in you. The excitement, the eternal excitement, eternal love for life, eternal Bliss is the side effect of the completion with yourself.

Shelli: Now I have a question from someone in the chat room. They would like you to explain again what inadequate cognition means.

Swamiji: Yes, great. Inadequate cognition means whenever you are cornered in your life, whenever you are confronted in your life whenever your life confronts you, where you are not ready to face the life. And where you are not ready to handle the situation where you are very vulnerable, position. You start creating a deep imbalanced, powerless pattern in you. Out of the emotional imbalance, a very powerless concept in you. I will give you one example, as a child of four or five years old you just tried to jump into the rain and start dancing in the rain, jumping in the rain, enjoying the rain. Suddenly your mother or father, somebody pulls you into the house and just trashes you or verbally shouts at you saying that, "Don't go in the rain, you will catch cold, you will fall sick." The harshness, the strong reprimanding you get from the parents, you may not be able to face that situation. You may not, you may feel powerless, vulnerable, at the moment. So you make the cognition, inadequate cognition in you, going in the rain will make me fall sick. Even after 50 years, you may be 55 or 56 even then you don't even need to go into the rain just seeing rain through the window you will start sneezing. So creating inadequate cognitions out of deep powerless moments of your life. And continuously carrying it in your life even when it is not required, even after you grow up, is inadequate cognition. Maybe as a five-year-old child you may catch cold because your immunity system is not strong but even after your immunity system becomes strong. Even after you grow, till the end, if you are carrying that inadequate cognition you suffer with it forever responding to life from a deep powerless experience of yourself is inadequate cognition.

Shelli: Now how can people stay connected with you on a daily basis? I know you have a live stream on YouTube. Please tell us how to stay connected with you.

Swamiji: Everyday I conduct a talk show called Nithya Satsang, it's a spiritual talk show, Bharatn standard time, morning 8 to 9 pacific standard time, it must be evening. So every day I conduct a spiritual talk show called Nithya Satsang, so that is the best way to learn about what I am teaching and to learn solution for all the problems you face in the life whether it is related to physical disorders, psychosomatic disorders, physiological sufferings or psychological sufferings or relationship sufferings. These Spiritual solutions can really help support, encourage you to live the best of life.

Shelli: Beautiful, now I personally have been able to visit your temple in Los Angeles and I would really like for you to tell people.

Swamiji: Yes, in Los Angeles we have a beautiful temple. We have established temples all over the world. In Los Angeles not only we have a temple, we have a Monastery also because Monks and Nuns are staying there. And volunteers, dedicated volunteers are staying. We have a beautiful a Monastery and temple in Los Angeles and that temple is the home for the largest Deities in United States of America. In Hinduism, we have pantheon of Deities, many Deities. We have many representations of one God, ultimate God. So Ganesha, Shiva, Venkateshwara all the major Deities of Hinduism in largest size in USA are established in the temple. And the temple also conducts free meditation, yoga, workshops every week, over weekends and a few over weekdays. We have healing camps and medical camps and every day the free Hindu vegetarian meal is served to all the visitors. It is a beautiful place, a very energetic place and I welcome all the listeners of Reflect Radio and Shelli Speak's show to please visit our temple and enjoy the temple.

Shelli: Yes, ok, we are going to take a short break, I am going to play Brahma Murari and that will give uhh Swamiji time to call back in from Bharat. So I will be putting you on mute now, So we will be back in five minutes, stretch you legs, get a drink of water and we will also be announcing a very special gift that Swamiji is giving all of you. So we will be back in about five minutes.

Swamii; Thank you.

Shelli: (inaudible 23:35) program for prison how does that affect the community.

Swamiji: Yes, you see I strongly feel many time the rulers without even their knowledge, the power centers are the law & order mechanism. Unfortunately many time puts impractical expectations on people. So many innocent people land in prison. Not all the people in the prison are criminals. Not all criminals are in prison. So I feel through Meditation and Kriya, Yoga, we can rebuild their life, rebuild their mind. Recently I was studying a research in a, in Scientific American Mind magazine, they were saying that human beings are not responsible for the crimes they have committed. It is the hormones responsible for the crimes, so subtly if you study the person's chemicals, the chemicals in the body is more responsible than the person himself. So with proper Kriya and Yoga if the chemicals can be balanced the person can move from the space of sinner to Saint and he can be reabsorbed into the society . And many developed, so-called, developed countries spent billions of dollars to re-assimilate the so-called criminals or prisoners into the society. I found Meditation and Kriyas are the best way to rebuild and reassimilate them into the society. We have 108 Kriyas for all the common physical and psychological ailments. All the listeners can visit our website, www.nithyananda.org to learn about this Kriyas. It is like, you can practice on your own. It is a self-sufficient Kriya teacher. The website is a self sufficient Kriya teacher, it will really help you to complete with yourself and be non-violent and rebuild your mind, body and everything. It covers common ailments from diabetes to blood pressure, migraine to up to cancer, a common irritation, agitation, to depression. For major, all major physical and psychological problems I have developed Kriyas and it is available freely for you to download at www.nithyananda.org. They are free guided instructions along with videos which you can easily practice in your own home.

Shelli: Beautiful. Swamiji: Yes.

Shelli: Now we have a question. Swamiji: Yes.

Shellli: They, they are asking, "What does it mean to be a living Incarnation of Super Consciousness? What is Superconsciousness?"

Swamiji: Oh, a person who starts expressing the qualities of Superconsciousness like a love, laughter, life, light, clarity, from the very young age, is called as Incarnation in Hindu tradition. My predecessors and my Gurus, my mentors recognized me at the age of three as a Incarnation. And when they brought me up, training me and polishing me more and more, they recognized I am born with many Spiritual qualities embedded in my Consciousness and very easily I was able to express all those spiritual qualities. So that is the reason they have named Me or given me the title of Living Incarnation of Superconsciousness. See human beings have four levels of Consciousness. Unconsciousness, Subconsciousness, Consciousness and Superconsciousness. Unconsciousness is the experience you go through while you are in deep sleep state. Subconsciousness is the experience you go through while you are in dreaming state. Consciousness is the experience you go through while you are in waking state. Superconsciousness is the experience you go through while you are in complete space, the space of completion and Meditation, Unclutching.

Shelli: Now the next question, is it possible to achieve that state, a regular person.

Swamiji; Yes, everyone can achieve that state now. Everyone can achieve that state. There is no such thing as monopoly, that is the beauty of Hindu tradition. We are the, we are the tradition not only believes and practices, every human being can achieve that experience, can achieve that space. We give that tremendous freedom to explore the spiritual possibilities and we open all the Spiritual possibilities to all the human beings without the difference between caste, creed, community. And my mission is to lead a normal, ordinary human being from the unconscious space to the Superconscious space.

Shelli: Beautiful and what would stop a person from achieving that space? What stops people from not having that?

Swamiji: I can say if a monkey started thinking what is the use of me becoming human being, what monkey would have missed, can you, can we make the monkey understand? We will never be able to make the monkey understand, what all the monkey would have missed, if he has not have become human being. Same way a born blind person you can never make him understand what all he is missing because he is blind. Only the person with eyes can understand what a born blind man is missing. Only a man can understand what monkey is missing. Same way only an Enlightened Being will understand what an unenlightened Being is missing. Only a person who is living in Superconscious space will understand what a person living in unconscious is missing.

Shelli: And you expressed that, you know, after going to Inner Awakening that in this completion and learning how to create that you can start creating all this phenomenal possibilities and realities. And some people are so out of touch with that. They think they have fantasy but what is that like, you know. What is your stance when you are thinking to go to this program and then they start stepping into this new Reality of phenomenal possibility?

Swamiji: See the main thing is, most of the time your Inner Being is too busy in creating the negative realities for ourself. Because of our powerless space, inadequate cognition, we go on creating wrong reality for us. So when you clear the root cause of why we create wrong realities and complete all the root patterns through which we create negative realities, inadequate realities for us then we will know the Science of how to create the right Reality, adequate Reality. So the human beings, because of their pattern of inadequate cognition being caught in inadequate cognition, being caught in incomplete patterns they continue to suffer and give suffering to others with the incompletions. The best way to live, the only way to live is find your root pattern and the biggest obstacle for human beings, achieving their ultimate possibility is incompletions. Incompletions with themself and with life. The Karmas they carry with themselves and with the life. The Karmas, the inadequate cognitions constantly binds them and blinds them to the possibility of Superconscious creation. So finding the root cause of what binds them and blinds and completing with it and moving to the Conscious space and completion is essence of Spirituality. That is exactly what I do in the Inner Awakening Program.

Shelli: Beautiful, beautiful. Now let's talk about the weekend program that you have at your temple. Specifically what classes can people participate in so that they can, you know, workshop (34:30 inaudible)

Swamiji: In Hinduism we believe we have seven energy centers in our body. We call that as Chakras and we also believe there is a tremendous inner potential energy in our body, we call that as Kundalini. Potential Bioenergy, that Kundalini Energy, this two-day workshop is mainly to awakened that Kundalini Energy and activate those seven Chakras in the human beings. The program is called Nithya Dhyaan Yoga, introduction to Inner Awakening. Every month at least twice or thrice in Los Angeles in our temple this program is conducted. I welcome all the listeners to come and enjoy the program. And all of our centers across the United States. Oklahoma, Ohio, Phoenix, San Jose, Mill Valley, and Seattle . All our centers across the USA, all our temples across the USA. Atlanta, Charlotte, in every place this program is conducted at different times. You can contact those centers through our website and please experience the program you will really learn the new dimension of life.

Shelli: Beautiful, I also placed the links of Nithyananda.TV where you can listen to the live Satsang and if you want (inaudible 36:41) later on this evening and you can actually have live experience with Swamiji, umm pretty much everyday if you would like to. So what are the benefits of connecting with you live and in person?

Swamiji: Oh, we in Hinduism we believe that Enlightened Master's Energy is beyond space. So when you sit live and Meditate, we all connect with each other. When we all connect with each other as a collective Energy field, as a collective Energy Space we bring peace to planet earth. We bring joy to planet earth, we bring bliss to planet earth, we experience collective Kundalini Awakening, means not only our individual inner potential energies are activated. The whole, the whole collective Inner Potential Energy of the Cosmos is awakened. So when you sit live every morning with Me I activate the Kundalini Energy, which is Inner Potential Energy in each human being through the ancient Vedic methods of sound, music, visualization and Meditation.

Shelli: Beautiful, now you also have trained Spiritual healers.

Swamiji: Yes

Shelli: Tell us about these healers who are on the planet.

Swamiji: People who are ready to take the responsibility to enrich others are given the training very systematically. In the third level of Inner Awakening as I described Inner Awakening level one is four days, level two is next six days, level three is next 11 days. So totally 21 days, the level three they go through a powerful training, how to be a healer continuously radiating that higher space, the space for miracles, the space for Consciousness in your body and Inner Space and share it with others, enrich others. The science is taught to you, anybody who learns the science and practices becomes healers because your body innately carries the natural healing powers. I awaken that space inside you, you will be able to heal yourself and others, enrich yourself and others.

Shelli: Beautiful and I just want to say, you know, from being on the phone with you now I feel, I didn't feel bad this morning but I feel so relaxed. I feel calm, I thought I was going to be (inaudible 39:52) not able to talk, that I just feel very peaceful, very blissful and that's just a small taste of what you can experience, you know, when you interact with Swamiji. I had the experience of the temple and the classes and the energy and it's beyond the ordinary, it is blissful, just like you said. So Swamiji I want to say Thank you so much.

Swamiji: Thank you.

Shelli: Is there anything else you would like to share before we get off the line. Swamiji: That's all, thank you for hosting Me. Thank you, so I request only thing to all the listeners. Somehow learn the Science of Completion, discover your root pattern, complete with it. Start creating the Reality you want, live Blissful life in a powerful way. Thank you.
