Transcript of Sri Bhagavan’s Mukthi
Deeksha Webcast 5/2/2010
(Thanks to Maria &

Thank you. Love you all. Love you.
So we'll start. And I will speak very
slowly in order to help translation in
various languages.
So there are four factors involved in
the awakening process. Namely, first of
all, the Teaching: there must be a right
understanding of the Teaching. Second,
there must be passion to become
awakened. Thirdly, the process must be
done with a high level of awareness and
attention. And lastly, you must be able
to invoke Divine grace to help you in
the process.
It's very important that the Teaching is
correctly understood. Now, in the
process, we could use any teaching, from
any faith, from any teacher; but, it
must be rightly understood.
There must be great passion to become
awakened. And how do you get passion?
Anybody who is seeking awakening must be
intensely aware of the mediocrity of
one's life. No matter how successful you
are, how famous you are, still your life
is only mediocre unless and until you
become awakened.
Unless you realize this, the passion to
be awakened would not be there.
Then we come to the Process. The Process
must be done without a break; that is
the key factor. And, you must put in the
right effort, which means not excessive
effort or not under effort. It means
optimum effort, just the right amount of
effort. Too much, also, would not
produce the results.
Then we come to grace. Now, grace, you
have to invoke the Divine in whatever
form, in whatever way you prefer. There
are no conditions attached. But invoke
you must.
Now, Oneness is not just a movement. It
is not just a state. Oneness is also a
phenomenon, a phenomenon which took
birth in 1989 and which has been growing
ever since. When the phenomenon first
took birth, it was very powerful for the
first few months and then, for certain
reasons, we ourselves reduced the power
of the phenomenon.
Now, it is being released fully and it
is growing by the day.
Therefore it is becoming easier and
easier to become awakened. In fact in
India we now conduct programs in
stadiums. Each day we do [the
programs] at least in two stadiums.
Now the phenomenon has become so
powerful that if you are uncomfortable
with the picture and the padukas, you
need not use them.
You could invoke the Divine the way you
have been used to invoking the Divine
based on your culture, your religious
belief or whatever has been your idea of
the Divine.
You could use your icons. Touch them. If
touching is not allowed, you could look
into the eyes of your icon. If touching
and looking into the icon's eyes are not
allowed, you could touch your holy
books: the Holy Bible or the Holy Koran
or any other holy text. If that also is
not permitted then you could just pray
as usual to the Divine.
So today before we commence the process
you will have to invoke the Divine, and
then after it thank the Divine in
whatever way you want to do it. There
is no need that you must use the picture
or the padukas. You could now do it any
way you want.
Now, we are going to go into the
process. This time we will be using 10
teachings. Instead of 9 which we used in
the month of April, now we are going to
use 10 teachings. The 10th
teaching would be what we used last
month, "I am Existence, Conscious,
Bliss," that would now join the former 9
teachings and would become the 10th
teaching.
So I would be repeating all the 10
teachings and after me you would repeat
it 7 times. This time the teaching we
will be using in the 49 minute process
is "I AM LOVE." That would be the
teaching we will be using this time.
It must be understood that this love is
not the love you know of. This love is
not possession, is not attachment, is
not making use of the other. This love
is unconditional. It is something which
thought cannot touch. It is something
which the mind cannot comprehend. Only
when you get there you will know what it
is. And when you get there you will know
it is something which cannot be spoken
about.
So this would be the teaching for the
month of May. And how would you know
that you are awakened? There are many
ways in which you would know you are
awakened. The simplest way to know that
you are awakened is: let's say
something has happened, and whatever
happens affects your mind and then there
is pain, there is hurt, there is
suffering. If you are awakened, this
pain, or this hurt, or this suffering or
whatever it is does not last for more
than 30 minutes.
Let's suppose you are hurt with somebody
and you are going to react in the next
30 minutes. Then you could come from
that hurt, that pain or that charge. But
the 31st minute you could not come from
your pain or hurt, or charge because it
is gone.
What happens after the 31st
minute is a response. While a reaction
could be called a right reaction or a
wrong reaction or simply right action or
wrong action, response on the other hand
is perfect action. It's neither right
nor wrong, it's just perfect. So the
moment you're awakened, itdoes not last
beyond 30 minutes. But for most people
it quickly drops down to 5 minutes.
For others, it gradually steps down to
25 minutes, 20, 15, 10 and comes to 5
minutes. That is, you cannot hold the
charge for more than 5 minutes. If
someone is hurt with the husband or
wife, you could react only within the
next 5 minutes. If you cross 5 minutes,
there is only a response.
So initially when you are awakened, the
charge lasts for about half an hour. For
some people it comes to 5 minutes. For
others it gradually comes down, 25
minutes, 20, 15, 10, like that. And
let's say there is a husband and wife;
if the husband is hurt, if the wife is
hurt, you could at best react within the
first 5 minutes. The 6th
minute, no reaction is possible, only a
response is possible.
When there is a response, there is
compassion, there is love. But soon, it
drops to 4, 3, 2, 1 and 0. At zero no
reaction is possible at all, only a
response is possible. That is when we
say you are fully awakened. Once there,
we will be going into deeper and deeper
states.
The 64 Deekshas which you will be
practicing soon, not only will help you
with awakening but will help you in
deepening your state. The 64 Deekshas is
a process which the trainers will be
conducting.
The trainers will be conducting the
Oneness Experience course, the Oneness
Awakening course. They also have the
Mukhti Deeksha which they might add to
the Oneness Awakening Course or they
might do it separately. They also have
the 64 Deekshas which they could add to
the course or do it separately. In other
words, there will be the Oneness
Experience course, the Oneness Awakening
course, the Mukhti Deeksha and the 64
Deekshas.
They could be 4 distinct courses or the
Mukhti Deeksha could be added to the
Awakening course and maybe, if possible,
you could also add the 64 Deekshas,
because 64 Deekshas is ideally done for
a period of 2 days. However, you could
also do it in a single day.
64 Deekshas are very powerful processes
and it must be done only under the
guidance of a trainer. And only
blessing givers could participate in the
64 Deekshas.
If you have any other questions you
could inquire with Doug or with the
University here, and we would clarify
all your doubts. You could contact your
respective guides and they will give you
all the necessary clarifications.
So now, we will go into the process
itself and after you have uttered it 7
times please raise your hands so that I
would know it's over. Since I don't have
audio feedback I wouldn't know that. So
if one of you could raise your hands, by
which I would know it is over.
So before you start you would invoke the
Divine and then we start. Then I will be
on the screen for next 5 minutes and I
then would be continued to be focused on
you. Both Amma and I would be focused on
you for the next 49 minutes. After that
we would come and we would give you a
Nayana deeksha, a deeksha through the
eyes. And then you would give your
thanksgiving to the Divine whom you
invoked.
So though we would be moving into a new
teaching, you could always continue with
the old teaching whenever necessary.
That is, "I am Existence, Consciousness,
Bliss." And once you feel that you have
made it, then you could add these new
teachings.
On the other hand, with the old
teachings if you want to have a better
realization like, "thoughts are not
mine," that teaching could be put in the
49 minute process. Or you want to have a
greater realization of: "all things are
happening automatically," then that
could be put into the 49 minute process.
So any teaching where you feel you are
not so satisfied with the experience
that you got and that you need a greater
realization of the truth of it that
could be put in the 49 minute process.
We'll take two minutes where you would
invoke the Divine and after two minutes
I shall begin the process. Invoke the
Divine as your friend, your father, your
mother, your brother, your sister or
whatever form of relationship you would
prefer.
Try to build up a very good rapport, a
very good connection with the Divine
because in the forthcoming webcast we
will be moving into the Divine in a big
way. After the Awakening we will be
moving into God Realization.
We now begin the process. You've got to
repeat it 7 times after I've said it.
Then please raise your hands so I have
an idea it's over.
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 no person there at all.
Now we move to the positive teaching 7
times:
I am Existence, Conscious, Bliss.
Now we move to the teaching for the
month of May:
You must understand when we say, "I am
love," it is not that you are
experiencing love. What is there is only
love. You are not there who is
experiencing love. YOU ARE LOVE. What is
there is only love, a love which is very
different from the love you know of.
So as we keep chanting, the brain is
readied to open up the unconscious and
then the teaching moves into the
unconscious. The unconscious, you know,
is 2 million times more powerful than
the conscious mind, and then the deeksha
takes over.
So now I would chant it 3 times and
after I have done it, you must start it
immediately and for the next 49 minutes
you must go nonstop. I will be with you
on the screen for next 5 minutes and
come back to join you and give you an
eye deeksha at the 49th
minute.
I am love. I am love. I am love.......
