The power of Authenticity

### (00:19)

Swamiji: Listen, step by step I am going to lead you into the complete completion with yourself first. That’s where everything starts, and how you project you to others. (Draws picture on board)... These are all other beings (draws a few circles) You can name your father, mother, brother, spouse, children, whatever you want. How you project you to others- outer image. Listen, you don’t need to pen down now. I will give you the print out of the whole thing. If you want to take notes to the home, you can take but now, listen. And how others perceive you that is what? Others image. How others perceive you is others’ image. Okay? And how you perceive life and others is life image. How many of you are able to understand these four words? Raise your hand. Yes. How many of you are not able to understand, raise your hand. Keep the hands up, I will explain. No, you have to keep your hands up and listen. Whoever is not able to understand these four words, I’ll explain once more so that you will listen.

Listen, now how many of you understand these four? Alright. Drop the hands. Aligning all the four and raising them to the peak is Authenticity. The whole program is just these two line. I am going to now align all the four, step by step, working on everything. The every incompletion you have, the gap between inner image and outer image, and outer image and others’ image, and inner image and others’ image, and inner image and life image, and others’ image and life image, and life image and outer image. Between these four identity, you are actually a joint family living in one body. Please understand, you are a joint family living in one body. You are not embodied being, you are embodied beings together. Incompletions amongst them, completing them, integrating you and raising you to your peak is what I call Authenticity. Now I am going to do this step by step for you. Please give the first worksheet. Listen here. You are supposed to distribute intraanalysing on Authenticity.

No talking between you. Please listen. No talking between the participants. All of you got your slips? Got your worksheet? Can you raise your hand? If you have not got your worksheet, can you raise your hand? If you got your worksheet, please start answering just these four questions. Listen, intranalyse. Spend lot of time with you. Each image at least one page you need to answer. Sometimes, even your internal arguments, ‘I think I am a good guy. No, no, no, no, no. I know what all bad things I have done. I am an inauspicious...no, no, no, no, no. I am auspicious guy only. So even those arguments, doubts, pen down. Even they are part of you. So about each image, describe at least one full page... And there is eternal truth. One full page you cannot lie.

I am not using sanskrit words because I want people to first catch the concepts. There are sanskrit words for all these because whatever I am teaching is completely from the traditional Hindu scriptures. The inner image is Mamakara, outer image is Ahankara, others’ image is Anyakara, life image is Swa-anyakara. But you don’t need to be bothered about remembering those words. Remember the concepts and work now.

See, this is the Kalabhairava’s prasada. Listen, the gap between inner image and outer image, listen. All of you please listen here. Please drop your paper and pen. Just listen. Inside you know certain things about you. But outside you go and present in some other way. The person who heard to whom you presented, he is convinced but when you came back, you get the doubt, ‘O God! I have convinced about him but not about me.’ That is what is self doubt. That is where the self doubt starts. How many of you understand? Getting it? First word, the gap between these two- self doubt and the way you project you and the way the other person believes you- this gap is hatred. You want to project you in some way- outer image but the other person is not ready to accept you. That gap is hatred, and that hatred always impacts you. How many of you are getting what I am saying? Listen, listen. You very strongly try to project, you are a great charitable giver! Outer image you want to show and the others’ image, that fellow says, ‘I know you fellow, how much you have cheated and swindled. You swindled crores and trying to give annas and few paises. This gap gets developed in you as a self hatred. Others image and life image, listen, what others feel about you and you feel about life, you feel about others. You always wanted others to feel very good about you, but inside your heart, you are very clear, everyone around you in the life are cheats, out there to get you. This gap, you will never try to fill this gap. You constantly live in denial.

Listen, listen. I will also give you one more example of this SDHD. Then this whole thing, this zigzag puzzle will fit. First, for example, you are sick. You want to get well. First, will I get well? Self doubt. I think I am not worthy of getting healthy. Whatever I have done, that is why I am going through this- Self hatred. I will not get well, I know- Self denial. How many of you now understand these three statement? That is exactly the game you are playing(shows in picture the outer image, others image and life image) and in this gap, in this gap, in this gap. Still there will be few places blind spot, you will not be getting it. When you start the process, you will get it. Understand!

There is a very beautiful book- vakya vritti’ where this genesis of identity; the whole, the way you perceive you, world, the depth with which it is presented. I am actually leading you into the depth. Usually, in traditional monasteries, it will take ten years for somebody to grasp that. Now I am trying to lead you in one or two days, that’s all (audience clap). I am just making it as a user friendly with the clear exercises, intra analysing process, Manana and everything. Listen, you are actually going through a crash course on Enlightenment.
