Drop Your Past, Own Your Future | Nithyananda Satsang | 09 Apr 2013

In today's morning satsang, Paramahamsa Nithyananda explains that when we take birth we are not given the power to change the past, but we receive the ability to continuously create a new future. If we cling to past problems, it is the same as clinging to a dead body. Our loved ones ultimately leave us, and at that time only a corpse is left. We understand that the body has no use without the person within, and we bury or burn the remains. In the same way we must recycle our history and open to the future, which is ours to create! Otherwise the future becomes imprisoned by the past. TRANSCRIPTIONS:- I will expand on how the Kundalini awakening can help you to create a reality of your choice. Human beings are programmed - only the right future they want to build. They are not given the power to correct the past. Please listen. You are only empowered to build the future as you want. You are not empowered to correct the past. So, the more and more brooding over the past, means more and more suffering. You are empowered only to build the future which has no connection with the past, which has nothing to do with the past. As long as you believe your past has capacity to influence your future, you are in delusion. Human-beings are hardwired to build the future as they want, but they have no capacity to correct the past. All the struggling you are doing to correct the past will be failure. You have no power to correct your past. You only have the power to build your future. More and more you think about the past, more and more you are going to be in powerlessness. You are hypnotized to believe your past has influence over your future. No! Till this moment if somebody was a sinner, next moment he can become saint! Till this moment if somebody can be saint, next moment he can become a sinner! That is the beauty of Mahakala- Time Your cognition about you and about the life depends on what you think as your time. Usually, you think hundred years as your time. So, whatever has passed, you think as your time; whatever is going to come, you think as your time; which is completely wrong. Neither your life is hundred years, nor the time passed is your time. Only the time going to come is your time. The whole time is your time. That is the 1st right cognition you need to have. Second, whatever has passed is not your time; it has no power over you; it has no influence over you. Third, only the future is your time. Your delusion that the time spent while you are in your body is your time is wrong! It is not your time, it was not your time, it was perceived by you with your broken, beaten, abused cognition! Your cognition is not complete cognition till Integrity, and Authenticity, and Responsibility, and Enriching becomes the basis of your cognition. Till then your cognition is nothing but confusion. Never you can develop your life as long as you think whatever has happened in the past and perceived by you as the past is yours. No! Not owning which you can't own, owning which you can own, is Life. Unfortunately, you try to own which you cannot own, not own what you are supposed to own! Your future time you are supposed to own, but you do not own; you don't take responsibility for it; you don't own it; you don't take ownership for it. Your future time you are supposed to own, but you don't own; you don't take responsibility for it; you don't own it; you don't take ownership for it. Your past which you cannot own, you continue to own continuously, because your mind teaches you : "known" is right. Freedom from the known is the real freedom. Just because it is known, don't think you can own! You are supposed to own for your future! You are the owner of your future! You should take ownership for your future; but 90% of your thoughts; Look in, it is all about past! When I see a person, I can tell based on his eyes, the expression of his eyes, whether he is lost in the past, or looking towards the future; the eyes which have no power, means, lost in the past. Which you are supposed to be the owner (of), which you are supposed to be owning, you don't take ownership (of that). Your energy does not even flow towards it. Some things which you can't own, you try to go on owning it, owning it, owning it - your past! You might have lived with her for 50 years; she might have been your first and last love; you would have had a most romantic life with her; even then you cannot keep her dead body for more than few hours with you. This is exactly the way you behave with your past! Wake up! Just because she was your beloved, you lived with her for years, she was fulfilling all your dreams, and you had a romantic relationship, she was part of you, and you had an amazing life, love, living together, she was your first and last love, don't forget the truth, you cannot keep, you cannot keep her dead body! Once she is dead, she is dead! You have to bury her body! It is time you bury her body! It is time to give farewell to her!
