0:15 You can exist eternally if you touch the source of the cosmos 0:22 and if you increase the frequency. 0:26 Here Mahadeva is giving us very powerful method to increase your frequency. 0:35 This technique is 0:39 so powerful, 0:41 I can say, 0:43 just this technique has kept one stream of living enlightened masters and the planet 0:49 earth alive. 0:51 There are few techniques which are responsible for keeping a living stream of 0:58 enlightened beings on the planet earth. 1:01 One is Vipassana, 1:03 great technique from Buddha and the other one is this technique, this method. 1:11 Becoming center of the sound. 1:15 Almost all the branches of Vedic tradition work with this technique. 1:23 Working with mantra, 1:26 working with some sound. 1:30 There is no branch in Vedic tradition which does not give a particular sound or 1:35 a mantra. 1:38 Any master, any yogi, any rishi, he will give you some mantra and 1:47 he will be surprised to know 1:50 25 million people in USA practice some 1:57 form or some branch of Vedic tradition. 2:03 I was surprised to see the statistics. 2:09 Many of the magazines, many of the statistics confirm this. 2:14 The reason is, 2:17 it's very simple. Even if you practice any one mantra, 2:21 you fall under this category. 2:23 You are working on this technique knowingly or unknowingly, you are working 2:27 on this technique. 2:33 When you work on any mantra, 2:36 you become center of that sound. 2:39 You become center of that vibration. 2:42 You become center of that frequency and one more thing, 2:46 many people come and ask me, what is the meaning of this mantra, Swamiji? 2:52 Mantra cannot have meaning. 2:54 If it has got meaning, it is not mantra. 2:57 Be very clear. 2:59 No. 3:01 Mantra has got only one importance, is phonetic importance, sound, 3:06 vibration. 3:08 Not linguistic. 3:11 No meaning is conveyed. 3:14 No meaning can be conveyed through mantra. 3:18 Mantra is used to make you realize that you are the center of the cosmic sound. 3:26 Anahata Dhvani, 3:29 by penetrating into that mantra, 3:32 suddenly you will realize you are the center of the sound. 3:37 You will raise your frequency to a different level. 3:43 You will enter into a 3:46 cosmic sound. 3:50 Mantra is used for a purpose, 3:55 purpose of raising your frequency to a different level, not for giving any 4:01 meaning, conveying any meaning. 4:07 All mantras, 4:09 chantings, leads to different frequency, takes you to a different awareness. 4:19 One more thing about this meditation technique, this method, 4:25 you don't need a separate place to practice. 4:30 You don't need a separate place to practice. 4:33 Anywhere you can do, 4:36 any place is okay, because you don't even need silence. 4:40 You don't even need silence. 4:43 Even if you are in market place, okay, you can do this. 4:48 Let me define the mantra and engram. 4:54 Engram is something like a word which enters your inner space and creates more 5:01 and more bondage. 5:04 Those words which goes into your inner space, 5:08 creates bondage is engram. 5:11 Words which enters your inner space and liberates you is mantra. 5:19 Any sound, 5:21 when it comes inside you, 5:23 if you don't give meaning to it and just go to the center, 5:29 even your spouse shouting at you can become mantra. 5:35 Any word, if you give meaning to it and go towards the outward, 5:41 outward, 5:42 even mantra can become samskara. 5:50 If you just travel towards the center of the sound, 5:55 even your spouse shouting at you can become mantra, means you can go to that 6:01 center or it can become samskara in you. 6:05 If you give meaning to those words, it can become samskara. 6:08 If you don't give meaning and just go to the center of the sound, 6:14 it will become mantra. 6:15 Whether you are going to travel with the sound to the center of the sound or give 6:21 meaning to the sound go outward is your decision. 6:30 Sometime people make even mantra as a samskara. 6:35 If you are conditioned by a particular mantra, 6:40 if you don't like other mantra people, 6:43 then that becomes samskara. 6:47 No, we do it. 6:51 All the religious wars, from where it came, 6:56 from how it comes, 6:58 getting conditioned to a particular sound and 7:03 does not like other sounds, 7:06 getting conditioned to the word Krishna or Christ and does not like the other sound, 7:13 getting conditioned to one sound and doesn't want to listen to the other sound. 7:20 So even mantra, 7:22 if you go outward, can become samskara. 7:27 Even samskara, if you go inward, can become mantra. 7:33 Even violence, shouting can take you to the center of the sound. 7:42 Even mantra, which is supposed to silence you, can take you towards violence, 7:48 terrorism is your choice. 7:52 Sound is a very powerful method to raise you to the higher frequency or lower 7:58 frequency. 8:00 You can either drop yourself into the lower frequency or raise yourself to the 8:03 higher frequency. 8:06 Understand, 8:09 even when you are sleeping, 8:11 you are recording all the sounds happening around you. 8:16 That is why I 8:19 always tell people, 8:21 if somebody is unconscious 8:26 or in coma state, do not utter any negative words around that person. 8:34 If somebody is in coma state, 8:36 you go to see him and thinking that he will not be able to hear, 8:42 you start talking, I think he will go away. 8:46 Just get ready. 8:49 He has written his will. 8:52 You start talking all these things. 8:55 You don't know, he is listening, 8:58 he is hearing what 9:02 in coma state. Even your kids are listening when they are inside the womb. 9:10 Now recently in Russia, they started 9:13 teaching to the kids when they are inside the womb. 9:17 The kids are taught, 9:20 the program schooling starts before birth. 9:28 Recently only Russia started, ten thousand years ago the Vedic rishis have done it. 9:34 Narada did it. 9:36 Narada did it for praglada. 9:38 There is a record, beautiful story of Narada and praglada. 9:45 Narada was teaching to praglada about the science of enlightenment, science of 9:52 devotion, 9:54 bhakti, 9:55 when he was in the womb of his mother. 9:59 And same way, 10:01 Krishna was teaching the science of fighting, 10:05 science of archery, 10:08 to abhimanyu, when he was in the womb of his mother. 10:13 Sounds can touch you even when you are not completely aware of the outer 10:20 world, 10:23 even when you are not 10:26 supposed to listen or hear, 10:30 even when the others believe that you are not hearing, 10:37 you are hearing. 10:38 I know a story near Calcutta, 10:42 there was a small village. 10:45 Every day, night, two o 'clock, the train will pass through that village. 10:52 One day they changed the route, 10:57 the train stopped going through that village. 10:59 The whole village complained. 11:03 No, sleeper was disturbed. 11:07 Really, there were many strange 11:11 complaints that we are listening some strange sound. 11:14 We are disturbed, 11:18 see, 11:19 because they are waiting to listen to that sound every night. 11:23 Their unconscious is open, available waiting. 11:27 When they don't listen that particular sound, 11:31 they start listening to all the small small sounds. 11:37 Those small, small sounds, change of sound was disturbing. 11:42 That's why they complained. 11:45 Actually, the police has to do a big enquiry. 11:49 Why so much of disturbance in that whole village? 11:54 Then they understood. 11:56 Unconsciously, you are waiting, are listening, 12:00 you are recording everything. 12:04 I feel, 12:07 actually, 12:10 with my own conscious scanning, 12:14 I have seen 12:16 people who are living in the city where too much of traffic noise is there. 12:20 Their inner space is terribly disturbed because 12:26 they do not know how to use that sound, 12:29 that noise to go into the centre. 12:34 See, if you even have a subtle resistance to sounds, 12:40 constantly you will be getting irritated without knowing why you are getting 12:45 irritated. 12:48 Because these sounds are entering into you constantly without 12:53 your consciousness. 12:56 Unconsciously, you are listening to the sound and getting irritated. 12:59 That became a complete, total unconscious process, separate underworld process. 13:08 I always tell people, 13:10 never ever carry irritation or disturbance against anybody or 13:18 anything. 13:20 Even if a simple thing like irritation because of some sound 13:27 can become routine in your unconscious setup. 13:32 Constantly, sound will come, you will get irritated. 13:36 Your awareness, 13:37 your inner space will not even be aware of this whole process happening. 13:46 You will not even know why you are irritated but you will be irritated. 13:51 You will be thinking you are irritated because of this, because of that. 13:55 No. 13:57 It is an unconscious process. 14:01 There is a beautiful secret 14:06 or the truth taught 14:10 to me by one of the 14:13 sadhu with whom I lived. 14:16 His name is Narayana Swami. 14:18 He is a great tantric, adept in the science of using the sound vibrations 14:24 to do something in the outer world. 14:28 He is a very great adept. 14:32 He is a master of sounds. 14:36 He told me, 14:37 even if you carry one negative word against any person, you will be punished. 14:45 I said, 14:47 you mean I will be punished in hell? 14:50 He said, no. Even in your dreams, you will go through the suffering. 14:56 Many times, 14:59 when you wake up in early morning, you will see that you went through a 15:02 suffocating, disturbing mental state. 15:09 Whether you go through in the dream state or waking state, it is suffering. 15:14 Am I right? 15:16 Whether you go through in the dream state or waking state, it is suffering. 15:21 In the waking state, 15:23 you forget about the suffering which you had in the dream state. 15:27 Because of that, that looks too simple or small. 15:31 But when you were in the dream state itself, that was equal deep suffering, 15:37 like waking state suffering. 15:42 Understand, 15:44 this has revealed a great secret, 15:49 important thing to me. 15:52 This is the answer to a One important question, people come to me and ask, 15:58 I feel always the good people are suffering and bad people are enjoying. 16:02 No. 16:04 You don't know what he is going through in his dreams. 16:09 Understand, 16:10 you don't know what he is going through in his dreams. 16:17 We are not sure of what he is going through in his dreams. 16:23 He may be having bigger car, 16:27 house, 16:30 that does not mean he is enjoying, he is happy. 16:35 Every person goes through his karma, 16:42 either in waking state or in dream state, but the suffering is unavoidable. 16:48 As long as you carry thorns in your inner space, 16:54 see these thorns are like a pints in which the sound which flows through 17:02 you is disturbed, 17:09 which stops the sounds flow in your inner being is the root of suffering. 17:16 Any sound, any noise created around you, if it can just flow through you 17:23 without getting judged, without being given any meaning, 17:30 you will suddenly see you are liberated. 17:35 But your conditioning is so deep, 17:39 every sound, 17:42 either you respond positively or negatively, but always you respond. 17:49 Even if you miss one word in conversation, you say, pardon, please tell me once more. 17:56 You don't want to miss single sound you can see in your own life. 18:05 Somebody comes to you and says, 18:08 A comes to you and says, 18:10 you know that B was talking about you. 18:14 You know B is your enemy, he will only talk against you. 18:18 Now you can neither keep quiet, I don't want to know if I know I will get 18:22 irritated, 18:24 nor tell him, please tell him, tell him, I want to learn, I want to listen. 18:31 One side your mind is a little tempted, no, let me listen. 18:36 At least let me know what he told. 18:38 The other side, no, no, no, I know by knowing I am going to get unnecessarily 18:44 disturbed. Why to ask? 18:46 But the temptation is so strong, finally you end up telling him, please tell me, at 18:52 least let me know. 18:55 And once he opens up and tells those words, you start creating your own 18:59 meaning, then what does he mean by it? 19:04 Then is he like that? 19:05 Or am I this or what? 19:08 You had your own words, your own meaning, your own commentary, and now you are ready 19:15 with a big suffering. 19:25 Don't feel fortunate that at least you have not heard those things directly. 19:30 No. 19:32 See it's 19:34 like you there is a space which is just waiting to listen all the disturbing 19:40 words. After 19:44 listening, you are ready to get disturbed. 19:48 And 19:50 it's like such a temptation, you can neither say complete, no, no, don't tell 19:55 me, go. 19:57 You can neither tell that, 19:59 nor you can be comfortable listening to it. 20:05 It's like a suffering attracts suffering, 20:09 suffering attracts suffering. 20:13 Because inside you there is a part 20:17 which is like a, it's like a critical mass of suffering. 20:22 It feels rejuvenated, alive. 20:26 When you get some stuff or material for more suffering, 20:31 for more suffering.
