“Nithyanandeshwara Samaarambhaam Nithyanandeshwari Madhyamaam | Asmath…”
Nithyanandeshwara Samaarambhaam Nithyanandeshwari Madhyamaam | Asmath Aachaarya Paryanthaam Vandhey Guru Paramparaam ||
I welcome all of you with my love and blessings.
First thing, today, I wanted to share with you all, from today we start the new season – Aapyaayana Rithu – the Season of Enriching. Yesterday it started. Today it starts full-fledged! For our Sangha, from today starts, the new season till Navaratri, Aapyaayana Rithu. Means, by enriching, having completion and spiritual explosion.
Please listen! Please come to the space of listening!
Every conversation you have infuses certain energy in you. If you continuously have conversation about Share, Sari, Jewellery, you will see automatically that kind of energy is infused in you. Please listen! If you continuously talk, have conversation, about the temples, kshetras, teerthas, the desire to experience them is infused in you. Whatever conversations you continuously have, that kind of a interest, curiosity, energy, inspiration, is infused in you. So, the conversation you have is very important, because actually you are not only conversing with others, while conversing with others you are conversing with yourself also! When you are talking, you have to be very clear you are also listening, which we forget. We always think we are intelligent enough to protect ourselves from our own words.
We think, ‘ Yeh! I know whatever I am uttering is little…little…little truth, and little this way, that way, okay; but for others I will utter; I will not believe it myself. That’s all!’
Try! I am telling you,try, just try for ten days! For ten days , just try, go round continuously talking positive things. ‘Yes, there is Existence, Ultimate Intelligence, God; I am progressing towards it. I can see right things happening.’ Talk, talk, talk ten things about this for ten days, and see what happens to your inner space!
And then, take the next ten days, go round saying, ‘I think I am depressed! There is no God! There is no Guru! Nothing! Everything is useless! These are all bogus!’ Be like atheist, typical Tamil Nadu atheist, and see what happens!
Try! Then you will understand the power of the conversations you have, the power of the words you utter. How much they influence you! How strongly either they inspire you or they terrorize you! How strongly they move you! How strongly they impact you!
Understand, you are nothing but the words you utter. You are nothing but the words you listen . You are nothing but the words you echo inside . Please listen! Your totality of words you hear, words you echo, and words you utter. The words you hear, the words you echo - means, the words you cognize. Sometimes, for example, if you hear about love, immediately you cognize, “That is very difficult for me.’ The words you hear, the words you cognize, and the words you utter, plays a major role in your life. Totality of all these three is your life. All these put together is your life.
The conversations you have with yourself and others are very important. The conversations you have, the conversations in which you actively participate, are very important. Sometimes, one active conversation, one right conversation can just completely transform your life! Same way, one conversation can destroy your life.
So, from today, let us all take a very strong decision with integrity, “we will have only enriching conversation this whole season, which enriches us and others with Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility and Completion.” Till October 13th, Navaratri, till Vijaya Dasami, till Vijaya Dasami, we will decide with Integrity and Authenticity, we will take the responsibility of enriching ourselves and others. You need to know, if you are enriching with a vested interest, you will give up on people. Don’t have any vested interest. Enrich just for the sake of enriching. Enrich just as a being of enriching. Listen! Enrich just for the sake of enriching. Enrich just as the being of enriching. I tell you, enrich just for the excitement you feel while enriching. Enriching brings so much of excitement inside you, outside you.
One of the biggest diseases Hinduism is suffering from is Selfishness! Hinduism has all the great values, a vast ocean of spiritual knowledge, mystical strength, just the one disease – non-enriching attitude, selfishness, and the ideas which got developed supporting this selfishness. That is the biggest cancer with which Hinduism is suffering, suffered. I can say the cancer has almost killed Hinduism! If we have to save the oldest, greatest spiritual tradition of Planet Earth, we need a strong, powerful chemotherapy and surgery. Remove all the selfish ideas, remove all the ideas self-centered. Through surgery, throw all the ideas out and infuse the great truths of enriching. Infuse the great truths of enriching! Infuse the great truths of enriching!
We have a very wrong idea, ‘First, let me experience; then I will enrich!’ It is like, ‘First let me get cured; then I will take medicine!’ Understand, enriching, enriching, enriching, enriching is the cure! Enriching is the experience! Enriching is tapas! It is enriching which unclutches you from your past incompletions. It is enriching which distances you from your past incompletions. It is enriching which creates a gap between you and your past incompletions. It is enriching which makes you grow. A child, if a child tries to unclutch from a toy car, he will be struggling, struggling, struggling; but if he just grows, the toy will automatically drop him! Enriching makes you just grow. Having this enriching conversation makes you just grow to the next level of you.
Enriching makes automatically many of your incompletions to drop you. Please understand, if you are completing, trying to unclutch, drop your incompletions, you are struggling with your incompletions and patterns; if you are enriching, your incompletions will drop you! You only have to decide whether you should be struggling with your cigarette and alcohol, or your alcohol and cigarette should drop you and go away.
Enriching is one of the best, most powerful spiritual processes and spiritual techniques. I know for sure, Hindus are never going to believe, because it is not there in their bio-energy. The only difference between Buddhism and Hinduism, why Buddhism still has a living stream of enlightened masters and Hinduism is not , is this great sacred truth of Enriching! In Hinduism, the anti-enriching concepts are very prevalent. ‘Don’t teach others unless they are qualified!’ ‘Secret! Secret!’ ‘Don’t teach others, they are of different community!’ In the name of community, caste, we have hidden the knowledge from others without enriching. Finally, we ourselves forgot how to enrich ourselves and destroyed it! That is exactly the way the whole Vedic tradition was destroyed.
First thing the Hindus need to learn is enriching, enriching, enriching! Let enriching be our religion. Let enriching be our lifestyle. Sometimes, I am surprised, shocked by the power of enriching. Just by enriching, people become saints, sages! Because, when you enrich, naturally you go through the conversations of “sacrifice”, “dedication”, “devotion” again and again. So, some of the best words are uttered by you and cognized by your brain, which is equivalent to practicing all those great truths again and again. Whether you spend ten crore rupee (Rs.1,00,000,000) and do some charitable work, or go on talking inspiring others to do charitable work, your brain cognizes “charity”, “sacrifice”. Spending ten crore rupees and doing charity, what is the exact final result which is required for you? Your brain cognizing “sacrifice”, your brain cognizing “tyaga”.
Basavanna very beautifully says, in the Veera Saiva Lingayat Sampradaya of Kanataka, ‘The thread which is kept with certain color absorbs that color. The brain which is kept with certain words absorbs that words.’
If a thread is kept with a certain color, if a white thread is kept with red color, what will happen? The white thread, it will become red. If your brain is left with the words “charity”, “sacrifice”, “dedication”, “devotion”, “integrity”, “authenticity”, it will just absorb those words. End of the day, the result required is, those great truths are absorbed by your brain.
So, spending ten crore rupees and doing charity , what is the end result? Your brain getting developed by absorbing the great words like “dedication”, “sacrifice”, “integrity”, “authenticity”. The same thing will simply happen in you when you enrich others with these great words, the same result exactly happens! The power of enriching continuously inspires you. I tell you, only if you continue to enrich without giving up on others, you won’t give up on you.
It is enriching, enriching, enriching we need to add to Hinduism. Hinduism has everything else. Nothing else needs to be added to Hinduism, just Enriching! Please understand, only by bringing enriching we are going to keep the Hinduism alive, because it is already suffering from the fourth stage cancer of Selfishness! We need a powerful surgery and powerful chemotherapy. Hindu tradition can be saved only by bringing enriching as our lifestyle. Otherwise, our books, religious knowledge, religious literature, everything will be just useless.
A man was complaining to the Station Master in an Bharatn Railway Station: ‘Sir, what is the use of having a train schedule if the trains are always late?’
The Station Master replied, ‘How will we know they are late if we don’t have a schedule?’
The Bharatn train schedule is useful only to find how much time the train late! Only for the purpose of post-mortem it is useful!
You may laugh, but see the reality! It is like having a huge medical science just to know the cause of death after a person dies! Only for post-mortem, we have a huge medical library, hospital ten-thousand doctors and one-lakh-bed (1,00,000) hospital, machinery, chemicals, medicines, everything! Why? After a person dies, we will diagnose very precisely what are all the causes of his death!
That is exactly where we Hindus are standing. We can diagnose the reason for failure. The ability to diagnose the reason for failure is not going to keep us alive. O, Hindus! O, Hindus! You who are soaked in the pride of thinking you are a Sanatana Dharma, you are a eternal religion, nobody can destroy you, wake up! May be nobody can destroy you, but you can be shrunk, which is already happening to you. You can be controlled, you can be contained, you can be restricted, which is already happening to you. Wake up from this pseudo-pride! Wake up from the pseudo-pride that nothing can shake you!
In the U.S., we have built nine-hundred temples which is more than two-billion dollars value, but not even one Hindu Chair is held by a person who is born and brought up as a Hindu in any single university of U.S. Then understand! Yes, you build temples, no doubt! But what the mainstream society is being taught about you? Still Americans learn about Hinduism from many universities that we people ride on elephants, and jump from one tree to another tree, and throw the children to crocodiles, or throw ourselves on the Jagannath Chariot, or have large-size sexual orgies, and women are burnt left and right with the husband’s funeral fire! This is what is still taught! Why? Because we are too busy! We are too busy in keeping our knowledge secret!
Understand, Sanatana Dharma was eternal! Yes! Without even a set of rules, or one book, one deity, one principle, we all survived! Because, the whole atmosphere, the air was filled with Damma, Dharma! Either you pick up Shiva or Devi or Vishnu or Muruga or Krishna; but the ambience was such that you will pick up any one! But, for the first time, the ozone layer has started having holes. Just like the ozone layer covering Planet Earth, the atmosphere of Damma, Dharma was covering our country, our minds!Not anymore! The media revolution has already made holes in the ozone layer. The amount of abusal attack we have to go through! A persistent, continuous, untiring attack by the media houses which are funded by vested interests! You can be alive, you can survive only by enriching. I tell you, take up enriching as a lifestyle. That only is going to awaken you. I am teaching enriching not even in the context of “other”, but in the context of “you”! Because Hindus can be moved by only anything is taught in the context of them, “me”, “what is there for me?”
I’ll continue on this truth of Enriching!
I also have an announcement today. From today, a very important Reality Show, first time ever in the world, hosted by me – Nithya Dharmam – will be aired in Thanthi TV, one of the Tamil channels from tonight 9 pm Bharatn Standard Time. The TV is also viewable online [www.thanthitv.com](http://www.thanthitv.com)
****Swami speaks in tamil about the announcement just made about the “Nithya Dharmam “program ******
I will move to the next segment of the morning satsangh – Nirahara Samyama .
Tomorow, the Niraahaa Samyama Second Level will have a break . You can eat three times tomorrow and day after tomorrow we will start level three which will go on for eleven days.
All the Nirahara Samyama participants, sit straight. Close your eyes. Visualize, cognize you have become Bidadi Kalpavriksha, and inhale through both the nostrils and the mouth as deeply as possible. Hold as long as you can. Exhale slowly through both the nostrils. Do this for the next twenty-one minutes.
