[First few words missing]:
...The
DVD player is there, the wire is there,
the power is there. Everything is there.
What is missing in this? The DVD player
is the mind, it is there. Then the DVD,
whatever it contains, is shown on the
television. So the teachings that will
be given to you would become your
realization. Now as I'm giving the
teaching if you listen very carefully,
and there is a sadhana [spiritual
practice] which should upload it
into the DVD player.
If it is done correctly when you put on
the switch it's all over. Maybe today,
itself, you can become awakened. Today
itself, in this very hall you can become
awakened.
People are becoming awakened everyday
now. Are you ready to be enlightened
today itself? So therefore you will
listen very carefully to the DVD of the
teaching. So you are getting it into the
DVD now and then you go on to uploading.
The first teaching: Your thoughts are
not your thoughts. The second teaching:
Your mind is not your mind. The third:
Your body is not your body; and the
fourth: Your self is only a concept. We
will go to the fifth later.
If you listen and understand correctly,
then we will be able to upload the DVD.
Otherwise, no. Please remember that your
thoughts have evolved over millennia,
for thousands of years your thoughts
have evolved. They are not your
thoughts. They are very, very complex
and they have evolved over millennia.
Whatever thought you have got now, it
has been there with your ancestors and
their ancestors. No single thought is
new. Your brain is only a reprocessing
machine. For example, it takes an idea
and goes on reprocessing it. It takes
many ideas and keeps reprocessing them,
different permutations, different
combinations.
The brain itself does not create
anything new. It picks up and does the
reprocessing. These are very, very old.
All thoughts, even so called modern
thought is very, very old. It is just
being recycled by your brain.
Now if you look at medieval man, his
thoughts too are similar. If you look at
ancient man, his thoughts too are
similar. Your thoughts are just there,
like in the thought sphere.
It comes in by what we can the ajna
chakra [third eye] and goes out
through what we call the bindu [back
of the head]. That's all. Receiving
and transmitting. Receiving, processing
and transmitting. That is what is going
on.
It's the same atmosphere. It has been
recycled for millennia. All the animals,
they share the same atmosphere. The
plants share. So you take in oxygen and
give out carbon dioxide. Plants take in
carbon dioxide and give out oxygen. So
it goes from your mouth to somebody. He
picks up that air. It goes to some ants,
an elephant,and it comes out of an
elephant then it goes to a plant.
So the whole thing is being recycled-the
atmosphere. Similarly, there is a
thought sphere. Thoughts are
continuously being recycled. The
reprocessing machine is the human
brain. We are actually a collective
organism.
Your thoughts are not, therefore, your
thoughts. I'll come back to it later.
You mind. Your mind is not your mind at
all. This mind also is very, very
ancient and there is only one mind.
Every mind at its center has fear. The
core of every mind is fear. Whoever you
are-you may be the bravest man on the
planet or the worst coward-but still
there is fear at the center of the mind.
There is no change at all.
All minds move from the past through the
present into the future, all minds. All
minds are trying to become. Everybody's
mind is trying to become. Every mind
has comparison, has jealousy, envy,
anger, and lust. Everything is there in
everybody's mind.
So there is only one mind. It's not that
you have a different mind or somebody
else has got a different mind. You
cannot say this is my TB or her TB or
his TB. It is TB, tuberculosis, that's
all. Similarly, the mind is a disease.
Everybody is diseased with the mind and
it's the same thing.
It's not different at all, and ancient
man also had the same mind. He had the
same mind. There is no change with
regard to the mind. It is the same.
Some sounds come out. He will not try to
get out of that. Any sense, like smell,
any sense, it comes and goes, it comes
and goes. He is just experiencing.
Nothing is his. He does not identify.
If he says, "These are my thoughts",
then we say it is called aham-ākhyam,
false identification. Why? Because of
prajnaparadha, failure of
intelligence. Now, with intelligence
awakened he will see he is not that. It
is just there, that's all.
Now how is he going to see his mind?
Let us say he has a business mind. His
mind will continue to do business the
way he is doing business. But now he
will see that the mind is doing
business. Not that he is doing
business. He'll watch his own mind doing
business. The only thing is it'll do
business much more efficiently now than
before.
Because when you identify, you mess up
things. When you don't identify it's a
beautiful machine, the mind works on its
own. It's naturally doing business. So
he will see his own mind functioning.
In his speech, he'll be talking. He will
see his mouth is moving, sounds are
coming. It's all being controlled by the
mind. But he is not the mind. He will
see speech is automatically happening,
without his getting involved in any way.
It's a real marvel. It's so beautifully
happening and he will see it happening.
In body movements, let us say he has to
repair his car or repair a machine.
Whatever mechanical things he does or
whatever he can do, the body does it;
let's say playing tennis,
everything-very, very beautifully. He
will not feel that he is doing things.
Everything is happening automatically.
The body is functioning.
So you see thoughts are going
automatically, mind is functioning
automatically, speech is happening
automatically. All the systems are
happening automatically. The body is
functioning automatically. In fact,
everything is automatic.
Now for example you may wonder about
this. You might be saying, "I decided to
move my hand". But today science is so
evolved that we can watch the brain in
real time and moments before you have
moved your hand, the brain has decided
to move your hand and just before you
move, it gives the illusion that you
have decided to move the hand. Actually,
you have no role at all because you are
not there.
The truth is you are not there. Your
thinking that you are there is an
illusion. Thinking is happening. There
is no thinker who is thinking. It's an
illusion. There is no thinker called
Deepak who is thinking. There is only
thinking. Just like if you draw a circle
a center comes into existence. Thinking
creates the illusion of a thinker.
There is nobody there. Just thinking is
going on. So everything is automatic.
That is the whole beauty of life. So
that becomes the fifth teaching, all
things are automatic.
So once again, your thoughts are not
your thoughts, your mind is not your
mind, your body is not your body, your
self is only a concept. That is, you
don't really exist. All things are
automatic.
That is how an awakened being, an
enlightened being sees. All things are
automatic. He is just merely witnessing
and experiencing, that's all. He does
not identify.
The fifth teaching: let us take Deepak
again, as an example; he's unawakened,
unenlightened, he's standing on some big
road. Then there goes a bus and he says,
"that bus is a red bus", he gives
commentary.
Then goes Miss World. He sees Miss
World and Miss World has gone away. Two
hours since Miss World went away, still
Deepak is thinking of Miss World. "Shall
I follow her?" "Shall I stop her
vehicle?" "Shall I find where she is?"
He is following her in his thoughts.
Let us say Deepak is awakened. It's the
same road where Miss World is going. He
sees Miss World. There is a moment of
excitement and Miss World moves away,
and that's all. It is forgotten. Next,
there is a donkey-equal attention to the
donkey. The donkey passes by. Next comes
a camel-same attention. Then comes a
leopard-the same attention.
He did not follow them in thought
because he has stopped naming them. He
will not call her Miss World or donkey.
Miss World or donkeys are the same. It's
an experience of Miss World or another
experience, a donkey-equally nice the
experience will be, that's all. That's
the whole beauty about it, experience or
to experience. No identification, no
follow through-particularly that. It's
all over.
So we will quickly realize, your
thoughts are not your thoughts, your
mind is not your mind, your body is not
your body, all things are automatic.
Everything is automatic.
Just like breathing is automatic. Body
temperature is automatic. Digestive
system is automatic. Circulation is
automatic. Thinking is automatic. Speech
is automatic. Body actions are
automatic. It's the same thing except
that you have an illusion.
Your self is a concept. That's the
fourth teaching. That is you don't exist
there at all. The fifth is all things
are automatic. The next thing is you
must have passion to become awakened.
Do you have the passion to become
awakened? How many of you want to
become awakened? That's very good.
What you must realize is all of you are
in jail. That you must understand very
clearly. What is the jail called? The
mind. You are in a jail called the
mind. Why? Because you cannot experience
anything. Just like a man in jail. Can
he experience the outside world?
Nothing. He can't experience. He can't
breathe the fresh air outside, he can't
see the light outside. Nothing. That is
your condition.
For example, you cannot experience a
glass of water. You are thinking. The
moment you start drinking you say, "I'm
thirsty" or you say, "this is mineral
water", or a "Coca-Cola", or whatever.
Some remark you'll pass on that.
Or, you'll think of the cricket
commentary and what's happening at the
IPL match, or what happened at the
office. Something will go on. Your mind
will not allow you to experience that
glass of water. Let's say your morning
break with your chapattis, bread or
whatever you eat, you're not enjoying
it. You can't experience it because the
mind will not allow you.
You look at your wife's face. You can't
experience your wife. All the images
come rushing in. The thoughts come in.
The mind comes in. She's already old.
Probably she's old because thoughts have
come in, that freshness has gone. The
experience is gone. You cannot
experience your wife, you get soon
bored, you start looking at other women
or this or that, and visa versa, the
same thing.
You can't look at your own children,
except through the mind. You can't see
the beauty of your children. Everything
is destroyed. When you go to the roads,
such lovely people are going. People are
so beautiful, trees, cars-nothing you
can experience. The mind will not allow
you. So there is nothing you can
actually experience because of your
mind.
Once upon a time you could experience,
when you were little children. You've
lost it. Now it's gone. You're prisoners
of the mind, and the mind I told you, is
nothing but the past. The mind is a flow
of thought. Thought is of yesterday. It
is a memory, it is death. It has no
life, it has no living quality.
Life is something just living. It is the
presence. It is the present. Thought
cannot touch it. Thought is measurement.
It measures things. The presence or the
present is immeasurable. It cannot be
measured. Thought can nowhere go near
it, and therefore you are missing that
in your life.
That is what is living and therefore you
are dead people. I'm actually addressing
dead people who think they are living.
No, not at all. Maybe if you become
awakened this evening you are going to
know what it is to live.
So you must realize you are prisoners,
that you cannot experience anything.
What you call experience is altered
experience. It has nothing to do with
what I call experiencing. So you are in
prison.
What is your life? It's a mediocre,
meaningless, purposeless life-artificial
meaning, artificial purpose. The same
mechanical life, everyday the same
routine of getting up and all those
things you do in the morning with the
breakfast-maybe some slight changes with
the breakfast, then going to the office
or the university, or this or that.
Some friends chatting and then TV, cell
phones, newspapers-the same rubbish goes
on and on and on.
Then finally some quarrel, some fight or
some worry, worrying about the past or
the future and trying to go to bed, not
able to sleep, then nightmares and then
get up. Then you get diabetes, heart
problems, arthritis. All the things
happen and then finally you die like a
cockroach.
The same problems keep repeating, first
for you, then for your children, then
for your grandchildren. You keep coping
with it and then one day you just
breathe your last. You may have a stroke
or something happens and you're gone. So
life is so mediocre, so mediocre and
you're living all the time in prison.
What is this life? Because you have no
meaning, you ask questions like: Is
there a God? If there is a God, who
created God? If there is no God, how
did this universe come into existence?
What is the purpose of life? What is the
meaning of life? So many fundamental
questions and so many books and so many
answers.
Now this jail has got two locks, one
inside, one outside. Once you develop
the passion to get out of the jail,
knowing it is the jail and life is
mediocre, the inner lock opens up. Who
would open the outer lock? Yes, we'll
come with two guns and blast that lock,
open the doors and pull you out.
For the first time you'll come out of
the mind. Then for the first time you'll
know what it is to breathe, what it is
to eat, to drink, what it is to look at
your wife, your children, your parents,
your house, your car.
Everything will look very, very
different. For the first time you will
know what it is to live because the mind
is gone. With the mind gone, you are
gone. Deepak is gone. It's all over for
Deepak with Deepak gone. Deepak is the
questioner who was questioning, is there
God? What is the purpose of life? With
the questioner Deepak gone, questions
are also gone.
With questions gone, all the answers are
gone. All the answers are a huge amount
of waste. They mean nothing. You have
carried that burden on your head.
So this mind, which is a donkey that is
what you are carrying on your shoulders.
When I look at you what do I see? I see
a huge donkey, a complex donkey which
you are carrying on your shoulders and
the donkey's big head is resting on your
small head and you're walking like
that.
How pitiable your condition is and the
greater pity is you do not even know
your condition is pitiable. That's your
life. You're carrying a donkey. So when
you get awakened you'll put down the
donkey and with that you'll bundle up
all the questions and the answers, all
that you have read and put it out. It's
gone because now he is living.
If you are drinking a mango juice would
you ask, "How does it taste?" If you are
living would you ask questions like:
"What is life, purpose of life, meaning
of life?" "What is God? Who is God?"
All things are God. You are living and
when you are living it's all over. You
are only witnessing life. It is all
happening automatically.
Everything is beautiful. You can play
tennis very beautifully. You can do all
the activities. Everything is the same.
Your job is the same. Your business is
the same. The house is the same. The
wife is the same. The children are the
same, but they all look different
because the mind is no more interfering.
You are in paradise, exactly in
paradise. So now, who are you then? Who
is Deepak who is now not his thoughts,
who is not his body, who is not his
mind. Poor Deepak, he has lost
everything. He is a total pauper. He
has nothing with him now. Who is he
then?
Poor Deepak, he has lost his thoughts.
He has lost his mind, he has lost his
body. He has lost all control. All
things are automatic. But yet you are
saying, Deepak is seeing his thoughts,
Deepak is seeing his mind.
Now, Deepak is gone. The concept is gone
because he has lost everything. He
cannot claim anything to be his. But, he
is witnessing. Therefore Deepak exists
but not as the Deepak he thought.
Therefore Deepak is existence, or
Sat. Then Deepak is able to
experience it. For that he needs
consciousness.
First of all, Deepak is existing there.
So he is Sat. He is Existence,
not as a small Deepak but as Existence.
But then he is able to experience the
tree, the leaf shaking. The leaf shakes
and the whole universe is shaking for
him. He is thrilled at it. He is
Chit. There is no exact translation
in the English language for that. It is
consciousness/intelligence.
He is Chit. He is able to
perceive. Now there exists intelligence
to perceive. And then he is great joy,
Ananda. He is nothing but, Sat
Chit Ananda.
Who is Deepak? He is Existence,
Consciousness, Bliss, if we were to use
the English words. But the more exact
words would be Sat Chit Ananda.
But since we also use Brahman to say it
has got no qualities, the Brahman with
qualities is called Parabrahma.
So he is nothing but Sat Chit Ananda
Parabrahma. That Deepak is gone, he
is dead and he is gone, he is finished,
that Deepak who identified himself with
thought, mind and body. He is gone. Now
that is not Deepak there, what is there
is Sat Chit Ananda Parabrahma.
He is witnessing. He is experiencing. He
is in bliss. He is in the present. He is
the Presence. He is AmmaBhagavan. He is
God Himself. That's all. It is all over.
When he is God Himself, would he ask,
"Is there a God?" "Who is God?" "What
is God?"
When Christ was worshipping God, He was
saying "My Father in Heaven." But
afterwards what did Christ say? "I and
my Father are one."
Whatever God you worship, of course you
can see your God inside and outside.
That is only the initial stage. But as
you grow, the strangest of paradoxes is
whatever God you worship, you become
that God. That is the paradox of this
universe and every mystic would discover
this on his mystical journey. Just only
the language changes later on.
I'm going to program them now and
afterwards they must keep repeating what
I'm going to tell for 49 minutes. Now we
begin the mukthi teachings. After I give
them the teachings they could repeat
them after me.
Thoughts are not mine.
Mind is not mine.
This body is not mine.
All things are happening automatically.
There is thinking but no thinker.
There is seeing but no seer.
There is listening but no listener.
There is doing but no doer.
There is no person there at all.
Now we are moving to the main mukthi
process. I would repeat the mukthi
mantra 3 times after which you would
chant it non-stop for the next 49
minutes. The secret is you must all do
it together in one voice without a
break.
What happens is there are changes which
happen to the brain and because of which
the mukthi mantra enters the unconscious
and the unconscious becomes aware of the
mukthi mantra. Then the deeksha takes
over and brings about physical changes
in the brain whereby you become mukhtas.
Now how do you know you have become
mukthas? There are many ways through
which you could know you have become
mukthas but I will give you a very
simple example.
Let us say there is a couple here. They
will be going home in the next two hours
or so, and let's say the husband hurts
the wife or the wife hurts the husband
and normally this pain could last for
days or weeks, or even months. But now
you would notice the pain disappears of
its own accord the 31st
minute without your doing anything, the
pain would just disappear.
As you continue with the sadhana the
following days and weeks-you could go
back home and do this process-you would
notice that very rapidly the time comes
down to 25 minutes, 20, 10, and
eventually to 5 minutes. No hurt, no
pain, no suffering lasts for more than 5
minutes. It just disappears.
Getting to 5 minutes is quite easy.
Thereafter, the time comes down to 4, 3,
2, 1. That's a bit difficult. Then
finally 1 to 0. That's the most
difficult part. But if you have the
passion to become sampurna
jivanmukthas, or fully awakened,
then the next few months you would get
to zero.
When you get to zero, of course you join
the great enlightened masters. But then
the majority of you would get to 5
minutes in the next few weeks or even
days. What happens then? The entire
atmosphere in the family changes:
relationship between husband and wife,
between parents and children, you and
your in-laws, your relatives, your
friends and anything and everything.
As a consequence of this changed
environment, you would soon notice that
in the external world your financial
problems tend to disappear. You health
problems tend to vanish. Your business
problems and whatever other problems you
might have, they also tend to disappear
for the simple reason there was this
charge, this suffering, this pain which
in the first instance caused all these
problems.
The coming years are going to be
difficult years. But then if you become
mukthas you would be able to
effortlessly handle these difficult
times.
I would now repeat the mukthi mantra 3
times after which you could start
chanting. I would be on the screen for
a minute or two then I will not be on
the screen but Amma and I would be fully
meditating and staying focused on you.
After 49 minutes Amma and I would come
and give you a Nayana deeksha, after
which you must become fully awakened.
I am Existence, Conscious, Bliss
[chanted in Hindi].
