Ask The Avatar - on Vision for Gurukul, Purpose for Humanity, Message to Practicing Hindus (Ma Advait and Sri Advait)

Ma Nithya Swarupapriyananda: nityānandaṃ parama sukhadaṃ kevalaṃ jñāna mūrtiṃ | dvandvātītaṃ gagana sadrśaṃ tattvamasyādi lakṣyam || ekaṃ nityaṃ vimalaṃ acalaṃ sarvadhī sākṣi bhūtaṃ | bhāvātītaṃ triguṇa rahitaṃ sadguruṃ taṃ namāmi ||

Nithyanandam! And welcome to this very exciting, very special Ask The Avatar. Tonight aadheenavasis who are going to sit in the hottest sit of the Multiverse and ask His Holiness Bhagavan Paramahamsa Sri Nithyananda, our Swamiji, anything and everything. Our individuals who can’t be introduced properly by another adult aadheenavasi, they can only really be introduced by a balasanth of the Nithyananda Sangha. So it’s with great joy and pleasure, I invite Ma Nithya Tattvapriyananda to introduce tonight’s featured aadheenavasis.

Ma Nithya Tattvapriyananda: nityānandaṃ parama sukhadaṃ kevalaṃ jñāna mūrtiṃ | dvandvātītaṃ gagana sadrśaṃ tattvamasyādi lakṣyam || ekaṃ nityaṃ vimalaṃ acalaṃ sarvadhī sākṣi bhūtaṃ | bhāvātītaṃ triguṇa rahitaṃ sadguruṃ taṃ namāmi ||

Nithyanandam. I welcome all of you for this Ask The Avatar session today. We had a, we all are blessed to have the opportunity where we all got to witness the darbar scene of Kailash. In today’s session, we are going to witness the people who were the like backbone or I can better call that as behind the scene people who organized the whole thing and who are standing up as Swamiji’s pillar for the whole Nithyananda Gurukul to happen. So with the blessings of Swamiji, I now invite the Advaits on the stage.

Ma Advait and Sri Advait: nityānandaṃ parama sukhadaṃ kevalaṃ jñāna mūrtiṃ | dvandvātītaṃ gagana sadrśaṃ tattvamasyādi lakṣyam || ekaṃ nityaṃ vimalaṃ acalaṃ sarvadhī sākṣi bhūtaṃ | bhāvātītaṃ triguṇa rahitaṃ sadguruṃ taṃ namāmi ||

Swamiji: om nithyānandeśvara sadashiva samārambhām nithyānandeśvari adi shakti madhyamām | asmat āchārya paryantām vande guru paramparām ||

Umm, you can start.

Sri Advait: Swamiji, first we want to thank you for making us part of your life.

Ma Advait: Swamiji we want to always be with you in whichever form you are and we want to only in the thoughts of Swamiji, we want to live around you.

Swamiji: Tathastu! Together? (laughs from Swamiji and audience)

Ma Advait: That Swamiji will decide.

Swamiji: No, I am asking both of you together?

Sri Advait: So you got the answer Swamiji.

Swamiji: Ah come on, umm.

Ma Advait: So, Ma Advait want to ask the first question Swamiji. Swamiji always says Swamiji has come down for gurukul, and what is the larger vision for the whole world, for gurukul to be functioning all over the world?

Swamiji: Let me put it very clearly, precisely. The superconsciousness which reflects on the human body. Listen. Human body goes through the evolution in this plane, but the superconsciousness which is reflecting on the human frame is from Kailaasa. Child is a honeymoon season of consciousness from supercons ... that which is from Kailaasa, and the evolved frame of planet earth. Understand, evolved human body of the planet earth and superconscious reflection from Kailaasa, these two meets when a child takes birth. And the childhood period, means till the age of fourteen, that is the honeymoon between the evolved human body and the superconscious reflection. During that honeymoon itself, that child should be given the understanding, and should be supported, helped to live that superconsciousness permanently, understand. Every child born on the planet earth, before the child becomes physically matured - fourteen, it should be taught experientially.

See not just intellectually, it should be taught experientially about the self, life, from where he is coming, how he is going to move, what is life? Based on that cognition, experience, he should start thinking, functioning, that’s all is the job of the gurukul. Understand, I am defining the whole gurukul. When a child is born, he is having the honeymoon experience with the superconsciousness or superconsciousness is having honeymoon experience with the body. The first fourteen years, the honeymoon time - at that time itself, child should be given the experience of who he is, and what the life should be, understandings, everything. Above all, all the powers of Kailaasa. Understand, … before the honeymoon ends, they should be taught how to make the life beautiful. What is honeymoon? Fundamentally, when both of you are ready to accommodate each other, it is called honeymoon. As long as you both are ready to accommodate each other, honeymoon continues. When one decides to become rigid - over. It’s all … how both of you decide to approach the life decides honeymoon.

Here the first fourteen years, body and consciousness are ready to accommodate each other. First time both of them are enjoying each other, experimenting with each other. Whatever consciousness wants, body is ready to adjust and create itself newly. Whatever body wants, consciousness is ready to accept, adjust. Still both of them are not frozen, saying, “This is me! This is my boundary, be there!” or “This is me! This is my boundary, be there!” No! Still both of them are melting, merging, relaxing. During that time itself, right conscious understanding about life, body, everything should be given. I tell you, it is right conscious understanding manifest as powers. You see powers are nothing but powerful cognitions! Whatever powers I am giving is nothing but I am just putting that into their DNA! I am bringing the powerful cognitions and adding it into their DNA, that’s all manifest as power.

Fundamentally any child before fourteen, before he or she becomes physically matured, should be experientially initiated into mysteries of life. That child should start exploring powers and possibilities of life. He does not need to learn alphabet. He need to learn all the things out. Understand! The whole education is restricted to educator, that should be broken. Education should be based on who is getting educated, not restricted on educator. The person who educates because of his ignorance, he vomits only what he thinks and his limited understandings becomes the understanding for a child which is absolutely wrong. Absolutely wrong.

Gurukul is a place where exploring the powers and possibilities are given to every child. I feel every child who is born on the planet earth, it is the birthright of the child to know birth rightly. It’s birth right of every child to know the birth rightly. I think knowing the birth rightly is all about gurukul. The gurukul should be the lifestyle. Gurukul should be education style not just in Bharat, all over the world. This is the way kid should grow up. Macaulay system is outdated. It is no more useful, at least not after 1978. The alternative system is already available 2006. From 2006, the alternative system is available. So it is time, we fundamentally make the science of life available to the whole world.

I think we should make it completely internet based. That’s the only way we can scale it up, because we cannot be wasting, waiting for infrastructures. We cannot be wasting our time for the construction of the buildings. We should straight away start the gurukuls through the internet, through the … the best brain should sit here and conduct classes everyday. All over the world, we should have just coordinators. We don’t need educator to train, we just need the housekeeping people who will keep the hall, properties clean, kids will gather, they will have classes, their questions will be answered, they will be given food, they will go back. Or they don’t even need to gather, they can study from home! Do power manifestation, study from home, only come for initiations, contact classes here.

I think … cognizing the Cosmos before you become physically mature is maturity of life. Anybody who has become physically matured without getting consciously matured is an unenlightened being. Anybody who is consciously matured before physically getting matured, he is an enlightened being - Paramahamsa. The purpose of gurukul is to produce conscious cognition, Cosmic cognition beings - they should know what is life. They should not be thinking their life is only the life of their skin. Their colour is only the colour of their skin. The understanding about what they think as them is not them. The ideas they carry as them is not them. This should be very clearly given as a realization.

Even if the mosquito bites them - the operating, reacting, responding, even for a mosquito bite it should be from Cosmic cognition. Not from the small understanding of “I am the body. This is my skin. Mosquito is sitting. It is biting and taking, sucking my blood.” No. No. That is not Nithyananda Gurukul way. Whether it’s a mosquito biting or … day to day lifestyle questions, “Why should I get up early morning eight thirty?” Nowadays eight thirty has become early morning. “Why should I do puja?” “Why should I do yoga?” Whether it is the questions about day to day life or reactions for any situation - everything, everything should be based on Cosmic cognition. Gurukul is all about evolving the beings of Cosmic cognition.

Sri Advait: Swamiji, err ... Swamiji you are a big proponent of the sannyas parampara. But for gurukul we need children, so that mean we also need to have the grihasthas.

Swamiji: Yes! Yes! We need children for gurukul! Ah yes, umm, umm.

Sri Advait: So, what is your ... guidelines or your vision for grihasthas?

Swamiji: Whoever is married should give one children every year. And, you cannot be stopping one or two. And … (Swamiji laughing away) Understand, see let me understand, analyse this thought current. First of all, it’s not that everyone is going to take sannyas. That may be very miniscule percentage. And I do strongly recommend ... all the consciously asserting living Hindus, give birth every year one child. No really, please understand. Please understand not only internationally even in Bharat we are minority! Don’t think we are majority. Statistics are not right! Understand, if you see all the psychologically converted and the cat on the wall population - already fifty percent is outside Hinduism. Another twenty percent is this nadu centred Hinduism. Nadu centred means, they do not know anything about Hinduism - “We will eat in the kitchen also and restroom also. We will eat here also and eat there also, what is the problem? They are all room only na! Eat! What is there?” Understand, that nadu centred group twenty percent.

Consciously people who are feeling we are Hindus and practicing Sanatana Hindu Dharma is less than thirty percent, understand. This is my humble request to all practicing Hindus - do not bother, surely they will not be in poverty. It is time we decide to give birth left and right. Left, right, center! At least one child a year. I am telling you, if we don’t produce and groom consciously practicing Hindus, I don’t even want to even imagine if we don’t. No. It is going to be disaster, understand. It is going to be disaster! We Hindus are still sleeping, thinking, “Ooh, Sanatana Hindu Dharma cannot be destroyed.” What foolish talk! See two hundred years before, from Gandahar to Malaysia! From Gandahar to Malaysia, Kadaram. Kadaram we have Raja Rajan’s the err Subramanya Temple, Shiva Temple built by Raja Rajan! And the Cambodia temple is Raja Rajan’s great grandson, Suryavarman. Raja Rajan’s pattabhishekam name is Arulmoḷi Varman (Arulmozhi Varman).

So the, the Varma tradition the name “Varman” is a pattabhishekam name. And the king who built Cambodia temple is Suryavarman. So his direct DNA. Understand, from Gandahar to Cambodia two hundred years. Even two hundred years before, see Gandahar and Cambodia, all those civilizations flourished thousand years before. But till two hundred years before, Sanatana Hindu Dharma was practiced as a lifestyle from Gandahar to Cambodia. Now where? Not even Kanyakumari to Kashmir. Kanyakumari is gone, Kashmir also gone. It’s between Arakkonam and Varanasi! Understand the way we shrunk! From Gandahar to Kadaram - shrunk, shrunk, shrunk, shrunk. It is now only between Arakkonam to Varanasi. Neither above Varanasi nor below Arakkonam. And, don’t be in the fantasy “Sanatana Hindu Dharma cannot be touched! It is there Sanatana!” If you listen to me, it will be Sanatana. Understand. It is a very serious subject.

Fundamentally Hindus, ninety nine percent are grihasthas. Only one percent is sannyasis. Let that one percent sannyas live the sannyas life, and ninety nine percent produce. See the … let me very little more down to earth. Average productive years: twenty five if they get married, maybe till forty five, I will say unabashedly give birth to twenty children. No, I will say unabashedly! Understand, you are not realizing the danger in front of you! Give birth to twenty children, bring them up, at least give ten to gurukul. Please understand, world can be saved only by Sanatana Hindu Dharma. Sanatana Hindu Dharma can be saved only by the gurukul. Gurukul can be saved only by the married couples of Hinduism. I am not joking, jokes apart. I am not joking. This a subject may look very jovial but I am very serious. It is time we take this very seriously expand practicing Hindu population, understand.

Very important thing is the practicing Hindu population is dwindling literally in a speed, in extraordinary rapid speed. How they claim fastest growing religion, I should say as of now, fastest dying religion is Hinduism. Understand, we can’t afford this. We cannot afford this. We need to do something very strong and very important. The practicing Hindus number need to be increased. And, teachers for teaching, Acharyas of Hinduism need to be created. It is possible only by gurukul. Gurukul need to be populated only by grihasthas. So I will strongly recommend, as long as you are a grihastha - one child a year. When you are not able to do that, take vanaprastha and sannyasa. When you feel one child per year is not possible then take vanaprastha. Why waste life unnecessarily? Then why grihastha life? There’s too much of maintenance. Take vanaprastha. A long as you are a grihastha, one child a year.

I feel it may look jovial, funny. I know a lot of jokes will be created around this instruction. But I am talking to my disciples who are living Hindus, practicing Hindus. This danger is only for practicing Hindus. If you are not a practicing Hindus, your this danger is not for you. You are not going to care about Hinduism. Whoever is practicing Hindu, who cares about Hinduism, listen to my words - we are already minority. We are in danger. Extinction is happening too fast, too rapid, understand. The speed with which we are getting extinct, is already I tell you, many of our small indigenous sampradayas are dead. Many of our indigenous sampradayas are dead! You don’t know! When I was born, thirty nine years before, the sampradayas which are alive, many of them are not practiced now! They are not alive!

I have seen some of the very powerful sampradayas, indigenous traditions dying in front of my eyes! They are no more practiced. Those great spiritual Jains are no more alive. That traditions are no more alive. I have seen sadhu sitting in one place without moving, eating, drinking, nothing. Just sitting in samadhi, eyes will be opened, he will open his eyes once in a while and bless people. Sitting like that for twenty years. But unfortunately those sampradayas are not kept alive. Nobody has picked up that science from him. It’s a science! Because there was, there were nobody who is interested to go and live around him and learn that science. He just died ... without transmitting the science to anybody! Same way, I have seen some of the most wonderful spiritual practices, indigenous practices, the local village practices dying. I have seen the dead animals coming back to live ... through this kind of a puja and rituals and practices.

Unfortunately, the next generation is not keeping all that alive. Understand. Already lot of indigenous Hindu traditions are dead. If we are reducing, shrinking the number of practicing Hindus, whatever is now remaining that few things, like a Shanmata, Vedanta, little Agama. I don’t know how long all these will be alive. I know how the traditions use to flourish. Now, how it’s drying down. It is time all practicing Hindus, only practicing Hindus are going to listen even to my satsang, what I am saying. So if you are listening to this, if you are sympathetic towards Hinduism, if you are a practicing Hindu - make more and more human beings live, practice Hinduism. That’s all.

Ma Advait: Swamiji, Ma Advait question is ahh parents are equally nowadays interested in different possibilities. So they are very welcoming sannyas. But the one thing is very gray area is a, like they have career path, stability and everything when they take a regular outer world life. They want to know like sannyas, what is the stability path for them?

Swamiji: Which profession has no risk or problem or complications during economic meltdown? When there are global economic meltdowns, when there are global economic difficulties, when the Wall Street is melting down and collapsing - did the people of career felt stability or we felt stability? Understand. Understand, Nithyananda Sannyasa, our Sannyasa Sampradaya is contributing Sannyas Sampradaya. So there is no difficulty about that career and stability in the life. See ... those days sannyasis who are dependant only on the alms, what people drop few coins, begging little food or little dakshina, only they need to bother about the stability of their life. We are a very organized with the huge clear defined vision, mission, motto, ideal - sangha sannyasis, understand. We are not parivrajaka sannyasis. We are sangha sannyasis. So our’s is the most stable life than any top fortune five hundred company, understand.

Maybe the parents need to understand, sangha sannyasa is the most powerful career opportunity. If you see each kid, if they were outside - what will be their studying, standard of education, knowledge? What they will be contributing to society? Now here, what is their standard, study, education? What are they contributing? Your kids are sitting and taking programs, where so-called PHDs are falling at their feet! See the world tour! All the kids are sitting in throne! And see the kind of a people coming and falling at their feet! It’s not that only today it is going to be a sta ... status for them, it’s their lifestyle! Understand, the faulty generation of the parivajraka sannyasis and sangha sannyasis is wrong. We are not parivajraka sannyasis. We are sangha sannyasis who belongs to sangha, and sangha has a huge organizations and institutions which is owned and run by the sangha sannyasis.

So I should say, sangha sannyasis are only psychological tyagis, but physically they are not. They are kings. I should say raja outside, sannyasi inside. See the way the kids are ruling the ranga raja. This is in Houston. (photo of gurukul balasanths on stage) In everywhere how they rule the ... To tell you honestly even when I went to New York, this crowd did not gather. Even when I went to Houston, this crowd did not gather. If you take out the pictures of my personal visits and world tours, you will not see this huge, this large crowd. So understand, our sannyasis are sangha sannyasis. So the whole concept is different. Our parent should understand this is the most stable life they will have. This is the most stable career they can give for their kids.

Sri Advait: Swamiji, that bring us to the last part of our ah this Ask The Avatar. So here, I have a lot of questions. I would call it the rapid fire questions for Swamiji. So it’s going to be fun as well as informative for all of us. And the well the expectation Swamiji will answer quickly, but if Swamiji wants to explain some concept while he chose, Swamiji can do that.

Swamiji: \>\>\>Tamil\<\<\< Uhh.

Sri Advait: Ah Swamiji, the first question - Rama or Krishna?

Swamiji: Ramakrishna.

Sri Advait: Vedas or Agamas?

Swamiji: Vedagama.

Sri Advait: Sundarar or Manikkavacakar?

Swamiji: \>\>\>Tamil\<\<\<

Sri Advait: Okay let see, at least for one question at least you should have only one answer Swamiji. Facebook or YouTube?

Swamiji: Share the YouTube in Facebook and Facebook in YouTube. Put the link of the Facebook in YouTube comments, and share the YouTube video as the Facebook status.

Sri Advait: Pavala Kundru or Omkareshwar? Pavala Kundru or Omkareshwar?

Swamiji: In Tamil I will answer.

Pavala kunril pazhuthalum Om kareeshwarileye ulagirku therindhadhu. Pavala kunril thaan pazhuthu, om kareesvarathil dhaan vidhai matra pazhangalai alikkum alavirku malarndhadhu. Pavala kunril thasai pazhuththadhu, om kareesvarathil vidhai vedithadhu.

பவளக்குன்றில் பழுத்தாலும் ஓம் காரீஸ்வரிலேயே உலகிற்கு தெரிந்தது. பவளக்குன்றில் தான் பழுத்து ஓம் காரீஸ்வரத்தில் தான் விதை மற்ற பழங்களை அளிக்கும் அளவிற்கு மலர்ந்தது. பவளக்குன்றில் தசை பழுத்தது. ஓம் காரீஸ்வரத்தில் விதை வெடித்தது.

Sri Advait: Vibhunanda Puri or Yogananda Puri?

Swamiji: Yoga tattvai Vibhunanda Puri and the techniques of tantras taught by Yogananda. Whether the male component or female component - Vibhunanda or Yogananda, the teaching, the Guru Tattva, matters. Whether Ma Advait or Sri Advait, the integrity they hold to gurukul matters!

Sri Advait: Ah let me try something very simple. Tamarind rice or dosa?

Swamiji: Tamarind dosa. Because rice is already in dosa. Just the tamarind need to be added.

Sri Advait: Swamiji’s experience in the Ramakrishna mission - in the Chennai Mutt or Belur Mutt?

Swamiji: Swamiji is a person who gathers experience so Chennai or Belur does not matter. It’s ability to gather experience matters.

Sri Advait: With respect to … our sou … typical Tamil Nadu, south Bharatn culture - Cholas or Pandyas?

Swamiji: Chola Raja’s daughter, Kanchanamala married to Pandya king, they give birth to Meenakshi. It is historical. Chola Raja’s daughter, Kanchanamala married to Pandya king and err … gave birth to Meenakshi!

Sri Advait: Shivastambha or Kundalini Rajju?

Swamiji: As long as the word “or,” o-r comes, the life also will be “or,” o-r. This “or” that, that “or” this. I tell you, life is never o-r! Life should never be looked as from the prism of o-r. It should be looked from the prism of “and.” Shivastambha “and” Kundalini Rajju. In any spectrum, I tell you ... when you move into the Shivastambha like a snake, when you are behaving like a stambha on a rope. On rope be Shivastambha. On Shivastambha be Kundalini Rajju, that’s it! On stambha be rajju, on rajju be stambha.

Sri Advait: Since it is getting very interesting the way Swamiji is explaining, I have a few more questions on that’s why ah ... song or dance?

Swamiji: When you listen to the song, your being will be dancing. When your being dances, there will be music released. Try to dance without visualizing music! Try to sing without visualizing moving, dancing! Dance while you sing. Sing while you dance.

Sri Advait: Since we just had the Skanda Shasti over, there’s a question on that - Ganesha or Subramanya?

Swamiji: \>\>\>Tamil\<\<\<

See fundamentally, action or intelligence - both are required!

So \>\>\>Tamil\<\<\<

01:02:21 Sri Advait: Swamiji in samadhi or Swamiji as a samaji?

Swamiji: Samadhi or samaji? Samadhi Swami or Samaji Swami?

\>\>\>Tamil\<\<\<

Samadhi is the place, space, vision develops. Samaji is the place mission develops. Vision inspires mission. Mission gets more vision.

Sri Advait: The last question and that was a, Ma Advait or Sri Advait?

Swamiji: I think \>\>\>Tamil\<\<\< So let the kids decide. Come on!

Sri Advait: Swami, that brings us to the end of a our Ask The Avatar.

01:04:16 Yes! So now, I have a beautiful present for both Advaits! \>\>\>Tamil\<\<\< So, to run the gurukul, the adhikara peranbu for running the gurukul - lion for Ma Advait and tiger for Sri Advait. Blessings! Blessings! See actually today’s, today’s Ask The Avatar and my relationship with Ma Advait and Sri Advait is same. How what kind of a questions Ma Advait asked, what kind of questions Sri Advait asked - that shows that kind of a relationship they cherish with me. Understand one thing, with whom you will hand over the most important treasury of your life? Highly trusted persons. What is the most important treasury of my life? My kids. So to whom I handed over - both of them. That shows, that makes the statement of how I hold Ma Advait and Sri Advait. Tsk! So ... now gurukul be aware, I have given both of them stick and the authority. Authority to use! So, get ready and prepare, be integrated.

So, with this I bless you all. Let’s all radiate, we have a beautiful Subramanya’s starotham, the procession. So, I bless you all. Let’s all radiate with Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility, Enriching, Causing, Living Shuddhadvaita Saivam, Sadashivoham, The Eternal Bliss, Nithyananda. Thank you. Be blissful! 01:06:43
