March 30 Mukti Deeksha Transcript

Today is the day of awakening.

Living without being awakened is no living at all. It is merely an
effort for survival.
Why is it that we do not live? It is the mind which prevents us from living.
How does the mind prevent us from living?
The mind does not allow us to experience reality as it is.

When you experience reality as it is then you are living.
But the mind does not allow that to happen.
Why? The mind is all the time naming, it is judging and trying to
convert it into memory.
That is why the mind never allows you to actually experience anything.

Therefore, in order to live we have to be free of the mind.
There is yet another reason why we should be free of the mind.
The mind is responsible for all our problems throughout our human
existence. It creates problems then it tries to solve the problems. In
that very effort it keeps surviving. Without problems the mind cannot
survive. That is what is responsible for all our problems.

As long as we are not free of the mind problems are not going to cease.
The individual, the collective, political, be it economical, be it
social, be it environmental, what not - the root is in the mind.
Unless and until we are free of the mind, these problems are not going
to come to an end.

To be free of the mind is the only revolution. There is no other
revolution that can really transform man. Therefore it is very
important to be free of the mind. When we say that we must be free of
the mind we are not talking of extinguishing the mind - no, not at
all. The mind will very much be there, in fact it will be working more
efficiently. But then instead of the mind making rules of our lives we
will be making use of the mind. That is the only difference that is
going to take place now. The mind will very be there, but then we will
be making use of this.

This freedom of the mind is what we call the awakening.

So today, if all things go well, in a matter of two hours listening to
this web cast today you should be awakened! Today, here and now.

So how do we go about this?

We're going to use what is called the Mukti Deeksha. We were speaking
to you earlier on the Skype that from January 2011 would be the
programming and from July 2011 we would be doing the process. But then
there is not much time left, so we have fused the two into a short
compact programme.
Amma and I have taken a sankalpa that it works. The last few weeks it
has been working very well and thousands of people have made it.

So now we are handing over this Mukti Deeksha to you. It's going to
become yours in the next two hours. Not only will you be making it but
you will be able to make use of it to awaken others.

So the count down has begun. We are not going to wait until the end of
2010, 2011, or 2012.

We are starting right away. You will be awakened and you will be
awakening others and it is
your mission to complete the awakening of man. It is in your hands now.


So now we will go into the process itself.

I shall again repeat the example I have been giving all over the
world, again and again, in order that it enters your consciousness.

So we have a television set which is your consciousness, it is
connected to the DVD player which is your mind. In turn it is
connected to a power source and the power is flowing. The power that
flows is the Deeksha and the source of power is the divine.

Now we have to get the CD ready. The CD is the teachings which I gave
in the month of February. Hopefully you have worked on it and actually
understood it.

I will be revising the CD, that is the five basic teachings for
awakening. And then we will be uploading it with the 49 minute
Sadanas. Once the uploading is over, we switch on. That is the Deeksha
for which you will go and touch the padukas if you have there, or
Amma Bhagavan's picture if there, or if you prefer to touch an icon
of your choice it could be from any faith - Christianity, Islam,
Budism, Hinduism, whatever you want. Any icon you could touch. The
Deeksha will be given directly by the Divine without any human
intervention. This is a very special Deeksha. That is why it is
called Mukti Deeksha and once you receive it, it is all over.

The state will be there. For some people it will take a little time,
maybe a day or two. If all goes well it has to be permanent,
irreversible, the first time itself.

If for any chance the state were to dip, again repeat the chant, or
back home you could repeat the process in case it dips it will come
back with a bang. Those that do not get it now could go home and
repeat it and it will come back. In case it dips, once or twice,
repeat and it remain permanently, irreversibly, with you for life.

You have the freedom to repeat it whenever you want to. YOu will be
moving into deeper and higher states of consciousness. It's all up to
you.

So now we go into the five teachings:

Repeat it after me:

The first is 'your thoughts are not your thoughts'.
The second is 'your mind is not mind'.
The third is your body is not your body.
Fifth is 'All things are happening automatically'.
Sixth is 'I as a person do not exist.'
These are the teachings.

So now, as I say it you repeat it after me in your native tongue.
Which if it happens to be English, I will be speaking in English, you
will repeat it in whatever language is your native tongue.

So here we go now. I'll make a slight change in it,

~ thoughts are not mine

~ mind is not mine

~ this body is not my body

~ all things are happening automatically

~ I as a person do not exist

Who or what is it that is making this statement?
You are saying mind is not there but somebody is there watching. What is that?
So it is obvious that something is existing - that is satta -
existence. What is not there is identification, I am doing things is
not there. The person who says 'this is mine' is not there.

The atman - This atman is what we call the unborn and the undying. The
unchanging and the imperishable.
Water cannot wet, knife cannot cut. It is the eternal ever present I,
the presence.
That's what is there. This is described as Satta. It has a sense of existence.
There is also called Chitta - there is no English equivalent of this,
the best we could translate it as
consciousness and intelligence fused together. Consciousness and
tremendous intelligence. It can
observe your mind, your body and all your actions. Therefore it is
Chitta, and it experiences unconditional, limitless joy. That is why
it is called Ananda. It is called satchinanda. The name given to it is
parabramha. That's why we keep chanting satchinanda parabramha.

So you are that - the unborn, the undying, the eternal, the ever
present, the ever present presence.
That's what you really are.
You are existence, consciousness, bliss.
You are not the thoughts.
You are not the mind.
You are not the body.
You are not the one who is acting.
All actions are taking place automatically.
You are the eternal witness - that's what you are.


You have been searching for this all your life [??] you have been
searching for this.
Your search has been futile because you have been searching in the
wrong places.
Like you see in movies, some guy has a hat on his head then he keeps
asking 'where is my hat?'

You are the one you have been searching for.
You are the one you have been waiting for.
That has been the problem.

The index finger which points at objects cannot point at itself.
The eye which sees cannot see itself.
That is the problem.

Today you are going to see that.
You are going to be that.

So now I will first say three times and after I have said you will say.
Then I will be on Skype for the next few minutes, the Skype will be
shut down and Amma and I will be fully focused on you for the next 49
minutes. And when you come and touch the altar we will still be
focused on you. And then it's all over.

So you'll be changing your courses into Oneness Awakening Courses. How
that should be done soon an email will be sent to you with all the
guidelines laid out.

We are transferring the power to you today.

We have initiated the process of dissolution which we said would start
in 2014, we have initiated that today.


So I will say and you will repeat it after me.

In your native tongue, this is very crucial. If English happens to be
your native tongue fine otherwise in your native tongue.

I am Existence, Consciousness, Bliss.

Repeat in your native tongue for 49 minutes:

I am existence, consciousness, bliss

Good Friday Diksha 6:15 AM Phoenix/La Time

Namaste,

Welcome late registrants-I will check the email box at 5:30 AM for your names.
*************

Good Friday is observed as the day the Christ was crucified.

"And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called Golgotha" (John 19:17).

"And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull" (Matthew 27:33).

"And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is "The place of a skull" (Mark 15:22).

"And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left" (Luke 23:33). (Calvary means cranium).

Symbolically we will go to the place of the skull -meditate on the crown chakra for this vision quest into a scriptural event. Focus your awareness on the crown for several minutes. You can tap it or touch it lightly briefly to help you if you like.

1. Ask the Divine or Bhagavan to help you to experience the heart of the Christ the day of the crucifixion.

2. Then chant the following "Aum Sat Chit Ananda" (or you can chant the English if you are more comfortable: I am Existence Consciousness Bliss) 15 times. This mantra relates to the crown chakra.

Then keep your awareness on the brow area. There is a screen of sorts in this area that we dream on.

I will be sending Diksha for half an hour. It would be best of you can stay seated 5-10 minutes then if desired you can recline on your back if you like. If you are meditating before an alter or a Sri Murthi (icon) of Bhagavan and recline put your head towards the alter. It is not good to expose the minor chakras in the feet to the Sri Murthi or the alter. Likewise do not sit with your feet out so the soles are exposed to the alter. Remember head to God feet to earth.:).

In past years many have experienced tremendous states of surrender, a new found wonder for the relationship between the Divine and man, the discovery of love, insights into suffering and a seeing of the direct relationship between suffering and liberation, insights into forgiveness and sacrifice, deep states of gratitude and wonder.

When I first did this vision quest I was not prepared for the state of surrender of the heart of the Christ. It transformed my life..
If you would like to share your experiences or insights it would be wonderful- please do so -but advise if it is for this group only or if it is OK to put on the blog at http://vedicshamanism.blogspot.com

Til then-

*****************
Background-not necessary to read just an FYI for those wanting more Info:

n the early years, the occidental (Western born) group in the USA were primarily raised Judeo Christian. The monk that helped us had gone to a Jesuit school is my understanding. We celebrated traditional holidays and gathered together for the holidays as a family would, and we connected with the other centers through teleconferences.

On religious holidays we often asked for personal experience and insight surrounding various scriptural events. For example during a Christmas Eve retreat we asked for an experience of that first Christmas. Some experienced the heart of of Mary that first Christmas. We saw that the minute she held her child she knew of the sacrifice. Imagine what it would be to hold your baby and know of such a destiny. Others had experiences as well and then we all shared them and received new insights. The historical and scriptural events became very much alive to us.

I will be adhering to that tradition by offering a Good Friday Deeksha where some of you will have the experience of the heart of the Christ as he fulfilled his destiny.

This way of seeing can make the scriptures from any religion become very much alive. Deep insight and can be gained. To attend a Stations of the Cross (Via Dolorosa or Way of Sorrows) for lent is a miraculous insightful experience in such a state. It goes beyond ritual, blessings, gratitude and tears into actual experience and insight.

Sometimes while you ask for a specific experience it shifts to that of something or someone close by or what may appear to be unrelated at the time. Perhaps it by some karmic bond or for some reason you are to carry a bit of information like a torch a couple thousand years into the future. Some in the past have asked for this experience of the heart of the Christ yet experienced Mary as she watched her son die, a by stander, Simon, the soldier who awakened on the spot and became God realized after piercing the side of the Christ with a lance.

You may have the experience of a bystander, the man who gave his tomb or you may be given what you asked to experience or perhaps nothing at all. It is all Grace.
