These two verses, if they are understood, then not only the whole Bhagavadgita but all the spiritual scriptures can be realized.
Somebody asked me, ‘Swamiji, can dead Masters teach us like Paramahamsa Yogananda, Mahavatar Babaji etc.? If I pray to them, can they show me the path?’ I told him: dead masters are not dead as you think. When they are alive, their presence had a body. When they are dead, their presence has no body,…

When Krishna delivered Gita, only one person listened to it, but today the whole world reads and practices it. When the Masters declare the truth, the quantity may not be there, but the quality will be there.
Kṛṣṇa starts His message as a response to Arjuna’s question. This shows that Arjuna still needs to have the maturity. He asks, ‘The Sun god is elder to you by birth; he is so much your senior. How am I to understand that in the beginning you instructed this science to him?’ Arjuna and Kṛṣṇa…

The quality of your life will be judged at the time of death only based on the quality of your inner space, not the quality of your outer space.
Usually people ask, ‘Swamiji, you say that life is purposeless. Then I may as well just lie down and relax. Who will give me food? Who will pay my bills?’ Let me tell you, you can never lie down forever. You may lie down for the next four or five days or for a week…

Is the statement, ‘When the student is ready, master appears’ right?
Yes, the statement is right. When the student is ready, master appears. Sometimes, even when the student is not ready, out of compassion, master appears. He gives the possibility. Even people who are not ready can take the quantum jump. So I extend my hand for the possibility.

When an enlightened being does spiritual practices it is not just for him. It is to create the right formulas for the disciples, so that he can reproduce the same experience in them
The person who has removed hypocrisy from his inner space will experience enlightenment. Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, the enlightened master from India, says beautifully, ‘Integrating your inner chatter and your spoken words is enlightenment.’ He says, just integrate your inner chatter and the words that you utter. Let both of them be integrated and you are enlightened.…

Renunciation is not running away from life, it is flowing with life without resistance!
Our ability to be in tune with others and Existence depends entirely upon how we conduct ourselves. It depends on the priorities we choose in life. What if we do not choose? What if we accept things as they happen to us? It is time to talk about renunciation. Renunciation is not running away from…

The difference between ordinary frustration and Buddha’s frustration was he was complete and intense in his frustration as well
In Bengal, there is a particular group of people who believe that Krishna is the only man and those who follow him are all women no matter what gender they physically are. They look to Krishna as their beloved. They feel so intensely about this relation that even the men dress like women. The enlightened…

Only if we take up responsibility for everything that happens in our lives will we start growing
With the intelligence gained about who we are and what we are doing here, comes the feeling of responsibility for others. We know then that we are not independent of others but interlinked to each other. Some years back, there was an epidemic of tuberculosis in Tamil Nadu in South India. Finally, medicines were found…

Paramahamsa Nithyananda Swamiji’s own conscious death experience in Varanasi
Let me narrate to you my own conscious death experience in Varanasi. I always used to think that I should have an experience of death, that I should face death directly. But somehow, that thought never became a priority. For any experience to happen, the related thought has to become the topmost priority. It should…

Every moment your inner space is getting cleared of the old thought by the entry of new thought!
Fortunately, by your very nature, you can have only one thought at a time. The moment a new thought comes inside your system, it means that the old thought has lost its power or influence over you. If the new thought has entered you, it means the old thought has been renounced because you can’t…

Celebrate your Self saying a deep ‘yes’ to you as you are! Celebrate the very Existence of the world by realizing it is an independent intelligence with profound mystery constantly expanding with causeless auspiciousness! Celebrate God as creativity overflowing for no reason! When you celebrate the existence of Self, World and God, you will suddenly see all these three disappear into celebration and what remains is eternal bliss, Nithyananda!
One thing has to be understood very clearly. The whole of Existence is an auspicious happening. You are part of Existence, so everything happening around you is also auspicious. This is the truth of Existence. Nothing that happens in Existence is inauspicious. Everything is only a blessing. If this is understood clearly, there is nothing…
