Perpetual Completion

.Reading time 17 minutes.

There are many beautiful words I have introduced to you to lead you to wordlessness.  Those words is what I call Mahavaakyas, the Vaakyaas which leads you to beyond Vaakyaas.  The words which leads you to beyond words is Mahavaakya.

Mookaambika in Karnataka, she is embodiment of Vaakshakthi, Mahavaakya.  So, all the Acharyas, when they give Mahavaakya to somebody they will have to bring them to Mookaambika, because she’s the Vaagdevi, Lord of Vaakshakthi.  She is the Devi of Vaak.  So bowing down to her I introduce one more word to all of you which will lead you to wordlessness.

Listen; there are many words I introduced to you.  If you cognize them, it’ll lead you to wordlessness.  Like, “Unclutching”, “Upanishad”, “Completion”. So today I am introducing this word – Perpetual Completion.  Already I have spoken about it, you would have heard but today formally I want to introduce and expand on this concept of Perpetual Completion, how you can keep yourself in the space of Perpetual Completion.

First thing, you deciding and declaring you will be in the space of Perpetual Completion. Read More

I wanted to make these few statements on Living Advaitha. The more and more violence you cherish, more and more you become pieces, disintegrated and useless to yourself and others. Listen. Never ever believe, out of ignorance or innocence people will become useless. No. Only out of cunningness, people become useless. It’s law of life. If somebody is not useful to themself and others, be very clear, it is intense violence they are cherishing. See, when the land when there is no water, it becomes too hot. It breaks and gives way, goes to pieces. Same way, in the Being when there is too much of violence, heat, it gets disintegrated.

I tell you, not once or twice, thousands of times I have seen, whether it is Thanedars, Kotharis or Mahants, whenever I see inefficiency, I see a deep anger inside them, arrogance, feeling that they need to be given more in everything. I never accept innocence or ignorance with inefficiency. It is a deep violence and anger, arrogance. So, listen. This is law of life. This is law of life. You cannot debate with it. You cannot fight with it. You cannot change it. There is nothing even to accept it.

Anywhere you see people carrying impossibility, dry, cannot relate with the reality of life. Please understand, whenever you relate with the reality of life joyful, auspicious things simply happen around you. If the people around you, who see you, live around you, if they cannot celebrate your presence, you are completely infested with intense violence. Be very clear, people should be able to celebrate your presence. If people around you celebrate your presence, you are a Sannyasi. Otherwise, you just live in your arrogant shell. You need to do lot of Completion. I tell you, please understand, these are some of the law of life, may look paradoxical, but these are truths. Your body should celebrate your presence inside it. Your stomach should bless you after you give food. After food if you are feeling tired, sleepy, your stomach is cursing you, feeling heavy, uncomfortable, be very clear, you are not eating for your body, you are eating for your tongue. Few inch muscle can destroy your whole life. Your body should celebrate your presence in it. The people around you should celebrate your presence in their life. Somehow, this not being in tune with life is considered as one of the spiritual quality or it is being tolerated.

Please understand, you should not accumulate wealth immorally, adharmically. But, if you are not able to generate whatever wealth you need to fulfil your mission, there is something seriously wrong in you; your goal is not as you declared, there is hypocrisy in it; there is a strong inauthenticity, cheating. I tell you, just if one body and one mind is integrated to one goal, Cosmos can never say, ‘No’; even if the goal is so-called ‘wrong’. If a body and mind is integrated to the goal, authentic to the goal, Cosmos has to simply say, ‘Thathaasthu’.

From Tiruvannamalai Mahant I recieved a mail, ‘I am not able to run; too many staff. No income. I will drop two staff.’ I just told him, ‘Drop this pattern of ‘how much I can do’, and look around. You will see what you need immediately will be there.’ By evening I received a mail, ‘Yes, I dropped that pattern ‘how much I can do’ and looked around. There were people already giving what I wanted.’ Read More

I gave few days’ time for that Living Advaitha process participants with a certain homework, the homework of penning down the reality you want to cause, and each one in your teamily, the reality they want to cause, sharing it with the whole teamily.

Listen. Incarnation is a person who makes the ultimate spiritual truth psychologically easy to practice in every Age. Listen, every Age the human-being psychology changes – your fears changes, your love changes, your greed changes, your pain changes, your difficulties changes, your comforts changes. See, the time of Rama, the fear of people is animals, demons. That is why he has to be all the time with a bow and arrow and he has to show himself as master of bow and arrow. But now, we don’t need bow and arrow, because, through bow and arrow I can’t protect any of you. Forget about protecting me, I can’t protect any of you, because our fears have changed, our pains have changed. It is no more the wild animals threatening us. We are threatening their existence. It is no more our fear. Our fears have changed. Demons don’t come with big teeth; they come with OB van. No, I am not saying all OB vans are demons. Listen! So, our fears have changed, our pains have changed, our comforts have changed, our way of thinking has changed.

In every Age, please listen, if these seven items change, means –

  • our greed,
  • our fear,
  • our concerns, worries,
  • and the way what we think as love,
  • and the comparison, the way we compare,
  • and our identity,
  • and our satisfaction of life; means, our lifestyle.

These seven, all these seven are related to your seven Energy Centres, Chakras. If these seven changes, all these seven changes, one Age has changed, one Yuga is over. Please understand; I am defining Yuga. If these seven changes, one new Yuga has happened. In every Yuga, your psychology functions in a different way.

I will repeat:

  1. Your desires – Mooladhara,
  2. Your fears – Swadishtana,
  3. Your concerns – Manipuraka,
  4. What you think as love, what you love – Anahata,
  5. With which you compare yourself – Vishuddhi,
  6. Your identity, with what you identify yourself – Ajna,
  7. Lifestyle – Sahasrara,

If these seven changes, one Yuga changes, one Age is over.

In every Age, naturally your psychology functions in a different way. Beings who happen in every Age and make the ultimate principles, the Advaitha, user-friendly, easily applicable, easily practicable in your day-to-day life, are ‘incarnations’. Read More

…continued fro Living Advaitha XI

Yes next few days we will be concluding this Living Advaitha practice.  So today, I wanted to give the gist of the whole process.

First – listen – to achieve the Advaithic experience, there are thousands of methods.  I can say all methods reach you there only.  It can be as simple as pouring water on a stone, to as deeper as finding your source of thoughts.  It can be as simple as this and as difficult as that.  Sometime I can say, finding the source of thought is too simple than remembering the right context and pouring water on a stone. Anyhow whether you start with this or with that, always you end up in Advaitha.  That is the goal. That is the goal.  So, don’t worry at all what path you do.  Advaitha is the goal.  But I want to tell you one thing.  Please listen.

This practice which I am leading all of you, the Teamily practice for living Advaitha, it makes you experience Advaitha in all its dimensions. Please understand, you get not just the oneness experience, the non-dual,

Again I apologize.  “Non-dual” cannot be translated as “oneness”.  Because no other word, I am using the word “oneness”.

The non-dual experience, this process of Teamily, Living Advaitha, not only leads you to the non-dual experience, it also makes you experience all the best things of life like health, wealth, beautiful relationships, Completion in your every moment, above all the extraordinary miracle powers.

Listen.  Please listen.  There are tons of methods to achieve Advaitha. For example, Zen.  Zen also leads you to Advaitha but a very dry way.  You just sit and stare at the wall for ten years in Zen; you will achieve Advaitha.  True, but ten years.

So there are many paths leads you to Advaitha.  There are many ideas leads you to Advaitha.  Even Shaiva Siddhanta leads you to Advaitha.  I know by making this statement I will agitate many people who don’t know anything about Shaiva Siddhanta, and claim themselves as Shaiva Siddhantis!  Whether it is a Kashmiri Shaivism, or Shaiva Siddhanta, or the Veera Shaivism, or Dwaitha, Visisthadvaitha, whatever may be the philosophy or name, methodology, you may call it, finally everything leads to Advaitha, everything leads to Advaithic experience.

So please understand, but because of the time the process takes, during the process the different powers it awakens, based on that, the processes can be classified 1st level, 2nd level, 3rd level, 4th level, like that.  I tell you I have travelled almost all alive paths for enlightenment. Please understand, not just through one or two, I have consciously scanned, went through, researched, almost all the paths still alive and available on the Planet Earth.  I am telling you, I have put the best of everything and created this Teamily process.  And my own experience, it is like I myself defeat my own achievements.  First what I contributed, the Science of Chakras; then the Science of Unclutching; then the Science of Completion.  I myself expand or I can say, lead you to the essence.  That is the reason I am telling you, the process of Teamily, this Teamily process, living Advaitha, Teamily Process, living Advaitha, not just it awakens the experience of non-duality in you in a very short time, it also awakens the extraordinary powers in you.

I tell you, nothing wrong in living and having extraordinary powers.  These fools who can’t handle little responsibility of money,  little responsibility of name and fame, recognition, because of their fear pattern, they hate powers also.  Listen, stopping with powers is something seriously wrong, but hating powers is also some deep incompletion.  You neither need to stop nor need to hate.  Hating again is incompletion.  I’ll demonstrate through my Gurukul kids how the power and non-dual experience so beautifully goes hand in hand without any fear or incompletion.  I am so happy in twenty-four hours my kids came back to Advaithic space and made the heavens shower yesterday.

Listen, from today, we will start moving towards Completion.  The first step you should take is, listen, now you wrote all the incompletions.  It can be as less as twenty-five, thirty, or as huge as one-thousand, two-thousand.  Now decide from this moment this incompletions will not have power over your decision or cognition.  Listen.  Understand the meaning of this word.  Even till you complete, these incompletions cannot have power over your cognition, your decision-making.  You can sit and complete all these day by day, one by one.

 See it’s like a elephants; I have seen temple elephants eating.  They will catch hold of a huge bunch of sugarcanes.  They will eat the sugarcane one by one, or two-three.  But, till they complete eating, till they eat also they will not allow anybody else to come and touch the sugarcanes.  Once they declare it is theirs, it is theirs!  They may be slowly eating, or not eating, they may eat even tomorrow, day-after-tomorrow, but no one can touch it!  Same way, you may complete tomorrow or day-after-tomorrow, but those incompletions cannot have power over you, be very clear!

Declare Completion NOW!  You know all this is incompletions. Understand, Completion works more with your conscious decision. Completion works more with your conscious decision.

Completion is more a conscious decision, less a technique. Pranayama, Yoga, all of them are more a technique, less a conscious decision. Completion more conscious decision, less technique.  Means, your decision plays a major role in completing than actual technique. You just decide now you are complete….over!

I never did in my life sitting and reliving, going through or looking at the mirror twenty-four hours.  I never did all these things.  Simply my Masters showed me, ‘Hey, this is incompletion!  Drop it.’  Over!

So, it is your decision that plays major role. See this penning down is like a identification.  Now what you penned down, even if it is twenty-five page, you should paste it next to your bed.  And every day for next few days, you should read that and tell yourself, ‘I am complete with all these.’  After a few days, you will be bored to read them, because they have no more power over you.  Then you can tear them and put it in the dustbin.  You should feel bored to read your incompletions; then you are COMPLETE.  You should feel, ‘What is this?  This looks like somebody else had all this!  Why am I reading?’

See when I speak to some of the people come to me for healing. Recently, some people came to me for healing, psychological suffering.  They came to India from both side Muslim countries after being tortured.  And you know worst thing, it is not that only Hindus are tortured in Bangladesh and Pakistan; many Muslims are tortured and they run away to India for a peaceful life.  So some of them came to attend the satsang and have the blessing.  When I listened to their problems and the deep – I am honestly telling you, with all my compassion and love for that soul, I put my hand on them and attended to them, healed them, but for a moment I thought, ‘Oh God!  Thank God I was born in Bharat.  Let us keep this Bharat alive!’  Because I can’t even imagine this amount of suffering can be put into people.  I was so shocked!

Same way, I have seen some of the Sri Lankan Tamils who moved to Toronto and Malaysia, even in Tamil Nadu, when they come for healing, ask for healing, Oh God, when I put my hand on them and try to heal, the amount of pain!  Only then you will understand all your incompletions are foolishness!  Because you don’t have suffering, you just create suffering. If you have gone through the real torture in the life, you will not torture yourself, because you are too busy in handling the real torture.  Most of the time, the torture we create for ourselves is just because no work, like entertainment you start creating!

Understand all the incompletions you wrote should look like meaningless.  Till then go on reading it every day and declare Completion.  When you feel some of them you don’t even remember them anymore, you can scratch them.  I wanted all of you to do this very sincerely. One side, the authentic inner-image, outer-image, life-image, others-image; the other side, all the incompletions you are supposed to complete to achieve that authenticity. This is the process for Authenticity. Read More

As I committed, I will extend the time for finding your incompletions till tomorrow.  Means, till the USA Monday morning, for USA Monday morning.  Then it may be only on Tuesday (India time) I will be able to lead you to start the Completion process, because I gave a word I will extend the time, helping you all to discover your incompletions.

Please listen!  The first and foremost incompletion you develop is, identifying you with a small boundary. Please listen, ‘identifying you with a small boundary’. The first and foremost incompletion you experience in your life is identifying you with a small boundary.  Just see, what you feel about yourself in your dreams, early morning when you wake up, or your default idea about you.

Understand, please listen!  Your altered idea about you will never be accepted as you, by the people around you.  Your teamily, team + family = teamily. Your teamily is intelligent enough to recognize your default identity, and it will never, ever accept your altered identity as you, because, twenty-four hours you will not be able to hold on to your altered identity, you will fall back on your default identity.

So, please understand, the only way to get rid of the default identity is: first, recognizing that it is not your true identity; second, completing it.  Alternative identity is not transformed identity.  Alternative identity is not authentic identity.  Just see: What is your default identity?  You will see that frightened child, that terrorized child, all the time waiting to get tired, waiting to get bored, waiting to give up, already planning to break.  When you start the business, already your default plan is, ‘If it collapses and I go bankrupt, what should I do?’  When you tie the knot for marriage itself, you think, ‘If the marriage breaks and ends up in divorce, what should I do?’  Everything, while you are starting itself.

Please listen!  I am not saying don’t be careful.  I am only saying, don’t be foolish.  This carefulness of a frightened child is nothing but not even getting out of your cradle!  From cradle, you directly want to jump into the grave; you don’t want anything between the cradle and the grave.  If both can be two-in-one, you will be more happy!  Complete that frightened child inside.  Actually, if you talk to your teamily and ask the help of your teamily to identify your incompletions and inauthenticities…. Actually, the teamily can suggest only your inauthenticity; you only can find the root of incompletions based on the inauthenticity input.  Please understand, identifying your incompletions based on the input from your teamily about your inauthenticity is what I describe, what I define in Sanskrit as “Aanava”, “AanorBhaavaha”.  Means, the feeling of “belittled”.  Not, being little; belittled!  Being can never be little!  Feeling belittled.  “Aanava”, “Aanorbhaavaha”!

Please understand; the word “Aanava”, we always have a wrong meaning.  We portray Ravana, or Hiranya, Hiranyaksha, Kamsa, Sishubala, to portray “Aanava”.  No!  Understand, of course, they are all embodiments of “Aanava”, no doubt, but not the context from which you understand.  You always think “Aanava” means showing more than what you are.  But “Aanava” means, “feeling lower than what you are”.   Only thenyou start showing more than what you are.  Feeling belittled!  Please understand, there is a big difference between these two.  If you understand “Aanava” as showing more than what you are, you will start doing completely wrong exercise, trying to show yourself as very humble.

Yes….I will start on the process of Living Advaitha, the Teamily.  I will continue.

See, when you work with all your incompletions, I gave you the time today, with the help of teamily, you will pen down all the incompletions you need to complete with, to achieve your authentic identity.  Please listen!  Just like the same cloth, because of confusion, gets into a knot and fights with the same cloth….it is the same one piece cloth, but when it starts getting confused about itself, when it is not sure about itself, it gets locked here and there and gets knotted.  Once the knot happens, the cloth itself is fighting with itself, neither it is going to be useful, nor it is going to have longevity.  It will destroy itself.  That is exactly, our own inner-space is doing.  I don’t want to use the word “mind” for inner-space, because the word “mind” is polluted too much.  Our own inner-space is doing to ourselves.  This is what our own inner-space is doing to itself; that is the right word.

You can see, the deep tiredness you cherish, kind of a deep-rooted pattern of “Give up” that is the source of all your tiredness, boredom and pain.  Don’t ever entertain that, please understand.  Don’t ever entertain that.  Whatever field you may be in, you might have achieved the peak of your field, you would have taken up a career in a Company and become the CEO (Chief Executive Officer), but, still if you have not completed with the deep-rooted pattern of giving up, you have not seen your peak, please be very clear.  You may be accidental Prime Minister, accidental Chief Executive Officer, accidental Chief Minister, accidental religious leader, accidental Adheeenam.  You may not have achieved your full potential.

Please listen!  See, from the young age people who oppose you, people whom you think are against you, it will not be some top big guys, like a Prime Minister, President of the country is opposing you; a mithaiwala who sells candy in your street corner.  All your enemies will be only that level.  You gave fifty paise, he gave candy only for forty-five paise, and five paise he cheated you.  These are the complaints you start developing in your life.  When you start building the idea that some enemies you have, some people are cheating you, some are exploiting you, slowly, slowly, your over-remembrance about them makes you shrink and stops you deciding in your continuous expansion.  That is why, in our Gurukul I said, even getting the fruits and eating in the garden…..

Rishi Advaith was saying, ‘We will get all the mangoes and serve them one day in the lunch or dinner.’  I said, ‘Have you eaten like that when you were a child?’  When you steal and eat only, it is tasty!  Not when it is served for everyone!  So, have more trees. Now you don’t even need to use the word “stealing”.  If it is banned and they do it, only then you can call it “stealing”.  We should not even use the word “stealing” for our kids, because we never banned them.  I only tell them, ‘Tell your tree; let it give ten times more mangoes, and all of you enjoy; that’s all!’  So, there is no question of stealing, because they are the owners, they are the inheritors.  So, it is their own father’s property.  You cannot even use the word “stealing”.  But, anyhow, we always feel it is tastier when we directly pluck, and eat, share only with people whom we love.  That is a kind of a pattern with which we start growing.  Anyhow…..it is okay.

Please understand, when you have described your identity, when you describe consciously how you want to be and ask your teamily to support you, give you the input, what all the incompletions you may have to complete, and after the teamily gives the input if you also work with it and complete all the incompletions you are carrying.

Please understand, I am giving you some of the examples so that you can be very practical and very precise.  Please listen, I will give you some of the most practical hints. See, for example, if you want always people should perceive you as a loving, caring, joyful being, the first thing you need to complete is, you may be having a deep non-trusting attitude.  Listen!  In the heart if you carry the non-trusting attitude, naturally, neither you will be comfortable with people, nor people will be comfortable with you.  So, first thing you need to do is completing with the non-trusting attitude and building up the ability to trust.  May be, if you tell your whole teamily that this is where you need to do Completion, your whole teamily will be constantly reminding you.

Teamily is nothing but the embodiment of Guru surrounding you from all corners.  Listen!  Teamily is nothing but embodiment of Guru surrounding you from all corners, constantly reminding you. 

If you always want to be perceived as a loving, caring, blissful being, you have a deep incompletion about trusting others, if you tell this to everyone, share this with your whole teamily, your whole teamily will be constantly helping you to separate and see your insecurity and the real, actual threat possibility.  Many times, if the threat possibility is even very small, because of your insecurity you cannot trust, your teamily can constantly help you to separate these two.  And, I tell you, only when you separate these two, you make a successful right strategy even for your security.  When you are constantly agitated about the cockroach, you allow the scorpion in your bed!  Because, constantly, you are frightened about the cockroach, you are too busy in protecting you from the cockroach, you allow the cobra and scorpion in your bed!  They both are sitting there to receive you!  When you separate the real possibility of threat and your incompletion, insecurity superimposed, these two separate, listen, listen, only then, only then even the security will be better.  The whole teamily will help you, support you, constantly remind you.  That is why the teamily.  But, I am very clear, I don’t want anybody other than your teamily to know your incompletions.  An onlooker or a person on the street can exploit you constantly.  I don’t want that.  The teamily should be a loving space for you to grow. Like how you help youraasandhari to grow.

I tell you, some of the best moments of my life was when I was serving Arunagiri Yogishwara, Raghupathi Yogi, and a great sadhu in Ramakrishna Mission, Swami Gautamananda.  Of course, Swami Gautamananda will never even imagine I will still be carrying so much of love and reverence and respect for him in my heart, but, the time I served him, I got an insider’s view of a powerful sadhu’s life.  Understand, he was not an ordinary sannyasi of the Ramakrishna Order; he was one of the Trustees.  Ramakrishna Mission has only eleven Trustees, and he was one, and a senior Trustee.  I think he now even gives initiation.  In Ramakrishna Mission, only one or two people are allowed to give initiation in the whole Order.  He is one of the two-three who give initiation, Mantra Deeksha.  So, such a top-level sadhu.  When I had the possibility to see his life very closely….Wow!  I tell you, the amount of integrity and purity with the whole day spent, the amount of integrity and purity used even to take administrative decisions of the organization, not just the personal decisions, even the administrative decisions of the organization!  I tell you, as long as we remain pure, we retain our integrity even in our administrative decisions, we will continue to exist.

I will expand on The New Identity.

 Please understand, I’ll just recap the yesterday’s instruction first:

  •  Penning down the inner-image you want to create in an elaborate way.
  •  Penning down the outer-image you wanted to show.
  •  Penning down how you want others to perceive you – others-image.
  •  Penning down the life-image – how you are perceiving, you wanted to perceive  life and others.

 Elaborately pen down all these four images in a very detailed way which your teamily can understand.

 I wanted to define this word also:” Team + Family = Teamily”.  I have created so many technical terms now, the new people,  new visitors always feel at loss, because so many new Sanskrit words, technical terms.

 Pen down such a way that your whole teamily understands your definition of inner-image, outer-image, others-image and life-image.  Then next, ask your teamily to suggest to you what all the incompletions you need to complete to achieve the true identity you want to create.  You describe what is the identity you want to create to your teamily.  Now your teamily can suggest, your teamily can give you the feedback because the others-image and life-image is directly dependent on your teamily.  Your inner-image and outer-image is dependent on you.  The others-image, the completion of others-image and life-image is dependent on your teamily.  Your teamily has to be a co-creator for your others-image and life-image.  Let them give the suggestions – what all the completions you are supposed to do for you to co-create, for them to be a co-creator, for you to co-create the authentic inner-image, outer-image, others-image, life-image you want to create.

 And today, after getting the feedback from all of them, you sit and contemplate, come to the final structure.  Please understand, today you will come to the final, complete conclusion what is the authentic inner-image you want to create, outer-image you want to project, others-image you want to create and life-image you want to have  and all the incompletions you need to complete.  For example, you want to have the image that everyone should tell you are a great Yogi, every morning four o’clock you wake up and do Yoga; you want to have that image.  Now the problem is, you can’t get up.  You need alarm three times and three people to wake you up.  Then what to do?  Pen down, you have to complete with your sleeping pattern.  Sometimes you may be carrying deep resistance towards life  the reason for your withdrawal and celebrating sleep more than the body requires it, understand?  Sleeping more than six hours for any healthy adult means you are celebrating sleep.  Look in.  May be you are using it as an alternative to create your dreams, alternative to experience Completion.

 Understand, all your dreams are a temporary method of experiencing Completion.  You try to experience Completion in a temporary way.  Like a kid, if he wants to drive a car, he can’t get a real car; so he gets a toy car and plays with it and experiences certain temporary Completion.  Same way, when you feel life is too big for you, you create dreams and experience temporary Completions. Maybe, if you are celebrating temporary Completion, you will be sleeping more than required; you will be celebrating the sleep. Read More

Strategizing your day-to-day thinking based on the simple truths is Living Enlightenment.  Strategizing your day-to-day decisions based on the eternal truths is Living Advaitha.

Few days before I was shown a reply by a rich man to a pretty girl who has advertised in the dating websites that she wants to marry rich man.  When that reply was brought to me, I told Jnanatma I will comment on it.  Jnanatma can you read out and I will comment on it?

 

Jnanatma : So the article , ‘This Pretty Girl Was Seeking a Rich Husband. The Reply she got from a Banker was Priceless.’

The following is what a woman posted on a dating forum seeking a rich husband.

I’m going to be honest of what I’m going to say here. I’m 25 this year. I’m very pretty, have style and good taste. I wish to marry a guy with $500k annual salary or above. You might say I am greedy, but an annual salary of $1M is considered only as middle class in New York.

My requirement is not high. Is there anyone in this forum who has an income of $500k annual salary? Are you all married? I wanted to ask: what should I do to marry rich persons like you?

Among those I have dated, the richest is $250k annual income and it seems that this is my upper limit.
If someone is going to move into high cost residential area on the west of New York City Garden, $250k annual income is not enough.

I’m here humbly to ask a few questions:

First – Where do most rich bachelors hang out? Please list down the names and addresses of bars, restaurant, gym.

Which age group should I target?

3) Why most wives of the riches are only average-looking? I’ve met a few girls who don’t have looks and are not interesting, but they are able to marry rich guys.

4) How do you decide who can be your wife, and who can only be your girlfriend? My target now is to get married.

Ms. Pretty

A philosophical reply from CEO of J.P. Morgan below:

Dear Ms. Pretty,

I have read your post with great interest. Guess there are lots of girls out there who have similar questions like yours. Please allow me to analyse your situation as a professional investor.
My annual income is more than $500k, which meets your requirement, so I hope everyone believes that I’m not wasting time here.

From the standpoint of a business person, it is a bad decision to marry you. The answer is very simple, so let me explain.

Put the details aside, what you’re trying to do is an exchange of “beauty” and “money”: Person A provides beauty and Person B pays for it, fair and square.

However, there’s a deadly problem here, your beauty will fade, but my money will not be gone without any reason. The fact is, my income might increase from year to year, but you can’t be prettier year after year.

Hence from the viewpoint of economics, I am an appreciation asset, and you are a depreciation asset. It’s not just normal depreciation, but exponential depreciation. If that is your only asset, your value will be much worse 10 years later.

By the terms we use in Wall Street, every trading has a position, dating with you is also a “trading position”.

If the trade value dropped we will sell it and it is not a good idea to keep it for long term – same goes with the marriage that you wanted. It might be cruel to say this, but in order to make a wiser decision any assets with great depreciation value will be sold or “leased”.

Anyone with over $500k annual income is not a fool; we would only date you, but will not marry you. I would advise that you forget looking for any clues to marry a rich guy. And by the way, you could make yourself to become a rich person with $500k annual income. This has better chance than finding a rich fool.

Hope this helps.

Understand, I usually pick up only the Upanishads, Vedic scriptures, to comment on.  But very rarely I pick up some modern-day writing or the recent postings to comment on.  But I picked it up this up personally.  It has a very deep insights of Advaitha.

Please listen. Whole life is a business, the whole life is trading: you give something, receive something.  Either you got more or you gave more.  Or you got and gave equally.  Whatever is said and done, whole life is a business, please understand.  But, the good news is, what you consider as you is the starting point.  The best news is that can be just updated by the Advaitha.

Please understand what you consider you is the position, trade position. If you consider you only dependant on your physical qualities you only have depreciation asset. You only have depreciation value. But if you assess yourself based on the qualities you carry in your mind it can be, you can be appreciation asset – means intelligence, your ability to handle any situation. Please understand whenever the queens were chosen they were always chosen, the first priority was given to their appreciation asset. Not to the depreciation asset. Whenever the daasis were chosen they were chosen even with just appreciation asset but whenever queens were chosen in any kingdom  they were chosen with appreciation asset.

Now I am introducing very important truth to you. You can have something which is eternally appreciating if you perceive yourself only as a body you have only depreciation asset. Exponentially depreciation asset.  Please understand whether you plan for your life based on your beauty or health. Whether you plan your life based on your beauty or your health you are planning on a wrong footing. You’re planning on a wrong footing.

Please understand there’s a Sanskrit verse:

Kaaryeshu daasi, karaneshu mantri, rupe cha lakshmi kshamaya daritri bhojyeshu maata shayaneshu rambha Shad-dharmayuktaah kuladharma patni

Means; ideal wife the one who works like a servant, advises and strategizes like a minister, feeds like a mother, makes love like a nymph, is as beautiful as Lakshmi and forgiving like the earth.

It’s a Sanskrit verse. One fellow read this verse and came to me and said, ‘Swamiji I have achieved the meaning of this verse!’ I said, ‘you are fortunate, blessings. Please call your wife, receive the blessings.’ He said, ‘No Swamiji just change the word, call your wives because so many qualities will not be in one person! I married six with all these each one having one of these qualities.’

Anyhow how you perceive you if it is just occupied means your self-image, your identity about you, if it is occupied completely by your look, by your beauty, the physical dimension, please listen, you are making all your strategies and plans based on depreciation asset more and more.  As time passes, life will be hell for you.  Kaala will bring suffering for you.  Please understand, the strategy which brings the best things as Kaala passes, is eternal strategy.

If your perception about you is all based on your beauty, you are having exponential depreciation asset.  You can manage few more years with various creams and cosmetic items, but it will continue to depreciate.

Second, if your perception about you is based on your mental abilities, your ability to understand, your ability to assess, your ability to strategize, your ability to cognize, your ability to respond, you have appreciation asset.  Please understand, you have appreciation asset.  As the time passes, you will only have more and more joy.  You will not have more and more suffering.  Kaala brings you more joy.

Questions about Living Advaitha Process

.Reading time 21 minutes.

… continued from Living Advaitha III

Some people asked me, ‘Can we have pets in the teamily?

The teamily we create, you can have pets, you can have pets.  You can even have trees, hills; rivers are energetic enough, conscious enough, spirit enough to respond to you.  So, a river or mountain or a pet or a tree can be added into your teamily.  That’s the first question.

For the newcomers the word “teamily”. “Teamily” means: Family and Team together.  Unfortunately, human-beings have lost connection even with themself.  Forget about having connection with the family, even with themself they lost the connection.  The strong, deep-rooted, grounded lifestyle is lost.  Due to various reasons we became very unconscious.  Now making us come back to consciousness and created, complete, centred, grounded with yourself and with your family and team together – “Teamily”.  Means, “teamily” is the people with whom you share your life.  People who share their life with you is “teamily”.  Literally, people who are part of your living, your existence, only those people I call them as “teamily”.  Pets your trees, rivers, mountains can be part of teamily.

I have some questions.  I will try to answer.  These are from Bela Patel, California.

She’s asking, ‘Is interaction with teamily members a must on a daily basis?’

See, sometimes you will have a friend with whom you have not spoken for ten years but that friendliness is there alive in you.  So with teamily, whether you interact every day or you don’t interact, that is not a problem.  But the experience of Advaitha should be alive, that’s all!  That’s all. Nothing else. There is no such thing as just because you speak to somebody they are your teamily.  I know many people; they live in the same house, they don’t talk to each other!  No just because you live in the same place or you talk to them. There are some people, every day you talk to each other, but it is only fight….rat-a-tat-a-tat….gun! No! You talking to somebody every day, or not talking to somebody every day, all that does not count.

Please understand, Bela Patel I want you to know I am not a “good-relationship” teaching guru.  No!  Please understand, I am not teaching you to have a good, great relationships.  No, hell with your relationship! Even if you have a best husband, best wife, you are just going to die leaving him.  Neither he is going to come with you or you are going to go with him. No, no I am not the guy who is teaching how to have a great relationship, like how to win friends and influence people. No! Understand, the good relationship happens as a side-effect.  But the context I am teaching to all of you is establishing yourself in the spiritual space of Advaitha.

When you feel oneness, because of the oneness, you will know whatever insecurity the other person is feeling, you will know whatever desire or greed the other person is feeling, you will know the other person’s space.  Because of your knowledge, you will have love and compassion.  Understand, anything becomes known to you, anything becomes part of your knowledge, you start loving it.  Because you know the desire, greed, struggle, fear the other person is going through when you experience Advaithic space with them, because of that non-duality, you love them, you become compassionate towards them, the relationship may become better.  But, my purpose is not making just your relationship better.
