Speaking Into Others Listening Part 1
Listen, today I am going to teach you a very important method called speaking into your listening. Please listen, listen to these words: speaking into your own listening. Many time people tell Me, "Swamiji, I know this is the right path but I am not able to do. Why? What? What to do?" Addictions, unable to train yourself. Knowing something is right and not doing it. Knowing something is wrong and continue to do it. All this is because you are not able to speak into your listening. Means, even you are not listening what you are saying, am I right? Even you are not listening what you are planning. Even you don't have respect for your thinking, then who will respect your thinking?
How much your thinking is respect...respected that much you will be successful in your life, that's all. Understand, when you learn to speak into your listening, you will know how to speak into other's listening. Today I am going to teach you both. Speaking into others listening, speaking into your listening.
When you speak into your listening, you will become more and more Advaitic, authentic. When you speak into other's listening you will become more and more expansive. How many of you understand what I am saying? See, life is all about speaking into your listening and speaking into other's listening, that's all, that's all. Nothing else. It is not just because I am in the speaking profession, whatever maybe your profession. It is nothing but speaking into yours listening, speaking into other's listening.
Whether your family, love, life, friends, partners, business, teamily, team, wherever. Life is nothing but speaking into your listening and speaking into other's listening. Am I right? I have seen two doctors passing out from the same college. After 10-years one is the owner of chain of hospitals, the another one is sitting in the same old village and reading the old...same old Hindu newspaper with that big glass. Having patients come for- to remove the teeth for 5-Rupee, injection 7-Rupee. Same...same profession if you are not able to speak into other's listening, how you practice. If you are able to speak into other's listening the way you practice is totally different. How many of you understand what I am saying?
So today, practicing to live, practicing our ability to speak into your listening and other's listening. What do you think as a Ultimate Reality in your life? Can anyone shout-out, just shout-out from there. Enlightenment, Bliss I can say Bliss is the utility word of Enlightenment experience. Enlightenment is the...you see, Bliss is like a applied science. Enlightenment is original science, pure science. Speaking into your listening, speaking into other's listening. Now you all said, "The Ultimate Reality is Enlightenment." Today let us take few minutes, you pen down. Listen, first pen down, few ways how you are going to convince you. Speak into your listening that Enlightenment is the Ultimate Reality and how to make that as a lifestyle. Listen, listen, first listen. Pen down something to speak into your listening, and second part pen down how you are going to speak into the listening of your whole group. And make them understand this is the Ultimate Reality.
A small homework exercise. Then I will lead you to the main process. Just a small process, understand? Listen, first pen down few thoughts. It can be one-page, two-page how you are going to speak into your listening, "This is the Ultimate Reality I want to achieve." Second page, how you are going to speak into the group's listening. Make everyone in the group understand that this is the Ultimate Reality. You should be able to face their questions and get shaken. Why people are afraid of questions you know? They are afraid before they convince the other person, the questioner may convince themself...them. When you are not sure about your position you are afraid of questions.
Few minutes, shall we do this homework? Listen, this will really help you to raise your authenticity and the space of Advaita. It will help you in a big way. So the first question, "How you are going to speak into your own listening and make you understand about the Ultimate Reality? Is Enlightenment, it is required for you? How to achieve it?" All that, and how you are going to speak into the listening of the group- team- teamily. Make them understand it is the Ultimate Reality for them. So each question at least answer in one full page.
Swamiji's process
Some reason you lost the whole 10-million dollar. Again you start. What a big loss and foolishness, stupidity it is. Like that only many time you think, think, think, think, think, build a strategy about your life, come to a conclusion. After one or two years of thinking, but suddenly you don't follow and you are back to square one. Then how much of energy is wasted, in your confused thinking and time? How many of you understand that? When you don't have a power to speak into your listening, that is what exactly is happening to your life. And you don't even remember the loss you are going through. At least with money you know because it is number. It this...with this mind you don't even know the loss you are going through because you don't know amount of energy going outlet.
It's like a diarrea, you can't measure. You know only how many times you went. How much you went you don't know. Understand, like that how many years you wasted you can understand but not how much you wasted. Understand what I am saying? No, little raw example. That is ok. After all I am a village boy. So...so that's all. That is why that speaking into your listening is required. I can give you one example: I decide Yoga is good for Me. It is...it will cause My Ultimate Reality. Once, now I decide I don't need to convince Me again, waste My time again into thinking into it. Every day I will be there on time doing Yoga. Now only everyone understands what is speaking into your listening. It is possible. I'll...I'll make it happen. You pen down this process. The next step you will see I will make it happen.
