Participant: .. (Question inaudible) ..
Swamiji: mm, சுயசந்தியேகம், That is a self-doubt. Ah,
Participant: மூணுக்கும் கொஞ்சம் விளக்கம் வேணும் சுவாமி.
Translation on the screen:
Participant: I need some clarity on all three of those, Swami.
என்ன? வார்த்தையே சுய விளக்கமாதான்மா இருக்கு. அது, உங்கள நீங்களே சந்தேகப்பட்டே இருக்கறது. என்ன செய்யனும் நெனச்சாலும், உங்களால முடியாதுனு நெனப்பிங்க பாருங்க, எதாவது ஒன்னு செய்யனும்னு ஒன்னே, அது என்னால முடியாதுன்னு நீங்களே முடிவு பண்ணிவிடுங்க பாருங்க, ம்ம்ம்... அப்பறம் இந்த மாறி செய்ய முடியாம, நிறைய தடவ போனதுனால, சீ... என், நான் என்ன பண்ணாலும், ஒன்னுமே.. சீ வேணாம் உடுரா... அப்படினு உட்டுறிங்க பாருங்க, அதான், உங்க மேலே, உங்க மேலே வர வெறுப்பு. அப்பறம் இந்த சுயசந்தியேகமுகம், வெறுப்பும் சேர்ந்து, எதுவுமே பண்ணாம, அப்படியே, நீங்லே குழி தோண்டி படுத்துகிட்டு, மண்ண தோண்டி, முடிகிறோம் பாருங்க... அதான் செல்ஃப் டினையல் (self denial). மண்ண மூட கூட, வேற யாரும் தேவையில்ல நமக்கு, நாம்லே மூடிப்போம்.
Translation shown on the screen:
Swamiji: Even the phrase itself is self explanatory. It’s when you keep doubting yourself. Whatever you think of doing, you think you can’t do it. Whenever you have to do something, you have already decided “I can’t do it.” So because you could not do it several times, you decide to give up. That is the hatred you have towards yourself. So then, the self-doubt and self-hatred, will come together and become self-denial.
Participant: (Question inaudible)
Swamiji: அபூணர்ணத்துவா
Translation shown on the screen:
Participant: Swamiji, what is the sanskrit word for “incompletion”?
Swamiji: Apurnatva.
Participant: Karma and incompletions are different?
Swamiji: I can say that karma is the side effect of incompletions.
Participant: Ok, and Samskara?
Swamiji: Samskara is also again the different component of incompletion.
Participant: Is there any other scripture that talks about it other than Shiva Sutras? About completion, incompletion?
Swamiji: Yes, few, few more scriptures are talking about it. Above all My experience talks about it.
Participant: Yah, I know. Swami, I know….
Swamiji: Take it from that, that’s all. You don’t need any further scriptures..
Participant: Last time you were telling about the book of completion, so when it will be launched?
Swamiji: It is already on the print. This Jayanthi we released it but it’s getting printed. When it will be (Swamiji speaking to sanyasi) Completion book ma? In two weeks.
Swamiji: mh?.. mh
Question inaudible.
Swamiji: Without my initiation you are saying?
Participant: \>\>inaudible\>\>
Swamiji: ah ah..ah..ah...
Participant: inaudible
Swamiji: it can, it’s very rarely. Very, I can say almost non-existent because to develop that level of samprajnana 3:20 all that, on their own practices nowadays is impossible, ma. See, it is a, it is a Guru who constantly inspires you and makes you cross all these hurdles. mh, guru ம்ம்ம்... குருவிலான் கொண்ட வித்தை, கரையிலா ஏறி போலே...The knowledge from, knowledge without Guru is like ahh a lake without bank. They will be empty.
Participant: Swamiji..
Swamiji: கோணிலான் கொண்ட ஊரும், குருவிலான் கொண்ட வித்தையும், ம்ம்ம்... கோணிலான் கொண்ட ஊர்னா, அரசன் இல்லாத ஊர்.
Means the ah euh kingdom without king, how it will be destroyed like that.
Participant: Okay Swamiji, like a, I am sitting in Haridwar and doing completions with those people who are still there in my life. So that is..
Swamiji: No, that is, that you will learn next… completion with others.. Actually you don’t need to jump, you can just hehe be with whatever we learnt in the last four days. See, before starting the next level, I wanted to make sure that every one of you have understood every single concept which happened in last four days; because see, this is a unique Inner Awakening because completely I am conducting, first. Second, small group, so I am making sure everyone of you are complete. Even the next, next sessions, I am going to listen to every one of you and make sure that every one of you reach. So, by the time we complete the program, the whole group will be complete with yourself and others, and able to create your reality and other’s reality, experientially. That is what I am committing with you. That is what I am promising. I’ll make you guys do that.
Participant: Can you expand on self-denial? Because that is what...
Swamiji: Uh, self-denial is nothing but you completely sealing on you. You say: “Nothing. I can not do anything. You teach all these teachings will work for others, not for me.” There are some people who reach that: “Aha, mhm, You don’t know about me Swamiji. You are, you, you may know all the seven billion people on the planet earth but You don’t know me. I am unique in that seven billion people. Nothing can be done to me.” There are people like that. 😃 “You maybe mm, Maha Mandaleshwar Jagatguru whatever😃 but you cannot work on me.” 😃
Participant: Most people are have all three? Or they have just self-doubting or…
uhh.. I don’t want to say most people will have all three; uhh, usually people will have only self-doubt and self-hatred. When the self-denial becomes then very difficult to get them out of it. It is like a, if you’re just having self-doubt, you have a disease but you are not hospitalized. If you have a self-doubt and self-hatred, you have a disease and you are in hospital. If you have a self-doubt, self-hatred and self-denial you have a disease, you are in the hospital, ICU, 😃 That’s all. So, I don’t want to say most people have all the three.
Participant: So you can have a, just self-denial, it is for uh self-doubting, a prerequisite to self denial?
Swamiji: It always starts only as self-doubt, then it goes to self-hatred, only then self-denial comes. It’s one by one by one.
Participant: So for someone who has self-denial will have these two.
Swamiji: Naturally, unless they finish the first grade, second grade they won’t go to third grade.
Participant: What about self-sabotaging? What, what would they come under?
Swamiji: Self-sabotaging? I can say self-denial, different word for self- denial.
Participant: Ok..
Participant: I would like to say something, I have learned something some time ago in an another program, we called it in America “AA or Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous, and I learned in that program that denial it stands for “Don’t Even Know I Am Lying.” D-E-N-I-A-L.
Swamiji: That is totally different.
Participant: It is.
Swamiji: Mh, I can say that is the explanation they are giving, but here this is the meaning I am, uh, giving for that word. I, I mean this only when I utter this word.
Participant: It is that, ok.
Swamiji: That’s it; because sometime the concepts are so difficult, you have to create your own word, coin your own word. That’s all.
\>\>Participant speaking French\>\>
French translator: When you do the completion with the mirror, can we talk loudly and express ourself?
Swamiji: Yes, yes, yes, you can.
Participant: Swamiji, must we always use the mirror? It doesn’t work for me. I have done many, many times with the last Ia,..
Swamiji: The idea, “It doesn’t work for me” is the idea is one more incompletion, complete with it.
Participant: Are there other ways?
Swamiji: I think the mirror is best, most powerful.. mh.. mh.. mh..
French translator: When we, when we succeed better in doing things for others than for ourselves, uh maybe we don’t do for us but we do for others, is it a form of self-denial?
Swamiji: Uh.. If I ex, exactly explain the situation I can tell, I think I can decide and tell you. Exactly can you explain the situation?
French translator: In work, uh actually he is doing, he’s managing other’s people’s companies but he is not doing any company for himself.
Swamiji: Ohh, I can say that is self-doubt only.
Participant: \>\>Question inaudible\>\>… They will say I am a I would rather not follow that because it’s from a Shaivite guru.. so, how do I convince them and I don’t want to give up on them, uh, that’s very...
Swamiji: See first, first thing understand very clearly.. mh uh, if you are going to talk to Vaishnavites tell them when Krishna comes back, how do you know whether Krishna was wearing vibhuti or namam?
Participant: They put Namam when they say.
Swamiji: Then? Then you tell them …. you put what He was putting. Do you have any record? Make them understand.
Participant: Mh.. that’s very big part.. what they will say is, we would rather suffer it’s ok .. we’ll suffer.
Swamiji: Let them suffer, what to do?
Participant: So they’ll say it's papa, it’s pavam ...that’s what they’ll say.
Swamiji: No, first of all I am not Shaivite Guru, understand? 😃 So more than that you manage, that’s all…. no,this is the very unfortunate.. mh.
Participant: Swamiji, isn’t prārabdha an unfulfilled desire from a past life?
Swamiji: I don’t want to say unfulfilled desire from past life. The, uh, completions you have to do in the life, this life. That’s all.
Participant: And what decides a person's prārabdha?
Swamiji: You decide.
Participant: Oh, it’s ah it’s something I intend to do before I incarnate or the life purpose I choose for myself?
\>\>Swamiji nodding yes\>\>
Participant: Ok. Okay. Anyone else?
Swamiji: Ah come on, the next.. mh..
Participant: Can we use Kundalini energy to heal our body?
Swamiji: Yes. It heals your body. Shall we all sit in Upanishad with Ganga for some time?
All Participants: YES.
We’ll just sit in upanishad, silence, upanishad means ‘just sitting’ in sanskrit… no we’ll just sit. Yes… Bolo Ganga mata ki jai!
