Logical People and Emotional People
Why do we like to take vacations
In this talk Nithyananda speaks on how one has become a slave of Logic and the Rationale Mind rather than using it as a tool. In his typical style, Nithyananda gives the inner secrets of why one feels the need to take the vacation after seeing beautiful pictures and videos of tourist places. He gives a detailed understanding of how one is always clutched to his identity and wants to actually disconnect from itself.
Truth from the Ultimate Master
In this talk Nithyananda is laying the foundation on why Mahavira could speak about the truth with such profound intensity. He mentions how Mahavira became one of the ultimate enlightened masters from his journey as a king. He further exclaims how Mahavira has always been directly speaking to a seeker about enlightenment, about moksha and not to a captive audience. Nithyananda delivers the truth by Mahavira is his simplistic yet direct style in these series of Jain Sutra lectures delivered in March 2007.
Establish yourself in Satya
In this talk Nithyananda speaks on how Mahavira has gone beyond what Patanjali has said about accepting scriptures as the ultimate truth. He then beautifully exclaims on how the sutras of Mahavira can be used as touchstone for all practises and establish yourself in truth. Nithyananda goes on to describe how the gap between what one speaks and what one thinks fails to establish one in truth. Nithyananda delivers the truth by Mahavira is his simplistic yet direct style in these series of Jain Sutra lectures delivered in March 2007.
The ultimate morality, be what you are!
In this talk Nithyananda speaks on the ultimate morality of being what you are. He stresses on this fact while speaking on Satya, the truth offered by Mahavira. In this excerpt, he mentions how one doesn't be as he or she is but as the world wants them to be. In the process of getting some friends by the above act, people lose themselves and hence move away from what they are, the ultimate truth.
Knowledge - The "Double" edged sword
Nithyananda compares knowledge to a knife - that can get dangerous in the hand of a terrorist or it can heal in the hands of a doctor. Given this, what is the secret behing Shiva Sutra where Shiva opens all techniques to everybody without any prerequisites? The people who listen to the Sutras understand this from their level of the consciousness. As their conscious grows new meanings emerge from the Sutras thereby eliminating the danger of this knowledge being misused by anybody.
Science of Zen Koans
Nithyananda talks about how people spend lots of energy trying to understand mind through logic. Logical thinking is part of the mind and its impossible to comprehend mind through logic. This implies that logic cannot in anyway be able to comprehend "consciousness" which is beyond mind. Zen tradition has something called "Zen Koans" that are given to the Zen monks to contemplate. These seemingly illogical statements when meditated upon, creates a space to experience consciousness. This is the science behind the Zen Koans.
Reclaim Your Inner Space
Inner Space of Shiva
Shiva - The Causeless Auspicious Energy
Mangalatva - Whatever that is happening is Auspicious
In this clip taken from Shiva Sutra discourse titled "Moving Towards Love", Nithyananda tells us that there are only two kinds of people...those that think that whatever is happening is bad and those who believe that whatever is happening around them is auspicious. Enlightened beings constantly radiate auspiciousness. Also good and bad from our dimension of logic cannot be decided.

Ahimsa (Non-Violence) : The supreme religion
In this talk Nithyananda describes how Mahavira has established the fact that Non-Violence is the supreme religion. He discusses how the importance of establishing one in non-violence is a foundation to establish in truth as non-violence itself can bring love. Like always, with powerful examples, Nithyananda delivers the truth from the Jain Sutras in these lectures delivered Los Angeles in March 2007.
Aparigraha (Non Possessiveness): Move beyond desires
In this talk Nithyananda discusses how one binds himself with insecurity and desires of people and things around himself. He asks one to deeply analyze and see that one cannot enjoy the things around if he/she is bound to hold on to these things. He says that non possessiveness is always discussed by Mahavira after non violence because only the one established in non violence is also capable enough to liberate himself from possessions. He authoratively declares that dropping desires is foolishness and hence increasing ones inner space to accomodate all the desires is the real trick. Jain Sutras, March 2007, Los Angeles.
Pain & Suffering : The Powerful Master for Non-Possessiveness
In this talk Nithyananda discusses how one deals with non possessiveness. He says that sometimes it is as easy as just dropping that thing with no pain. The other side of the coin is where one feels pain and suffering while going through this non-possessiveness. Nithyananda smiles and emphasizes that this is the most powerful master, as pain and suffering purifies you. Its only when one goes through pain and suffering and then unclutches, that one is liberated from pain and suffering of possessiveness. Jain Sutras, March 2007, Los Angeles.
Liberation from Liberation: The Ultimate Liberation!
In this talk Nithyananda discusses how one should even liberate himself from the thought of liberation as that is the ultimate liberation. Only one who liberates himself from the thought of freedom has achieved the ultimate freedom. Jain Sutras, Los Angeles, March 2007.
You are Consciousness
In this talk Nithyananda describes how the outer world is inside your world. This can happen to you only when you witness, and above all just unclutch from your body and mind. Until then, you have created a boundary between you and the world and hence you are separate from the whole. Just unclutch and witness that you are the whole... you are nothing but consciousness. Jain Sutras, Los Angeles, March 2007.

Power of Third Eye
In this clip taken from discourse titled "Awareness is the Gate of God" (from Shiva Sutras), Nithyananda says all Eastern religions continuously work on techniques to open the third eye. He also says as of now there are about five thousand techniques to awaken the third eye. The third eye expresses energy of pure consciousness. It is the most powerful energy center.
Being Centered
In this discourse taken from Shiva Sutras (titled "Tune in to Bliss") Nithyananda talks about being centered. Nithyananda in this video clip says that a person who can accept himself will have compassion towards himself. In all moments of shifting from one chakra to another or one emotion to another we pass through the neutral space or the zone of unclutching. It is in this zone you experience Shiva Consciousness or Eternal Bliss.
Dissolution of the Mind
In this clip taken from Shiva Sutras discouse titled, "From Mind to no Mind" Nithyananda gives us the technique for those beings who are lucky to escape the conditionings of the society and can open up.
Power of Opening Up -- The Story of Kannappa
In this clip taken from discourse titled, "From Mind to No Mind", Nithyananda tells us that human beings have become logical. They have lost the ability to open up. It is easy to open up and shower our love on to an animal, a little more difficult to open up to a human being. Opening up to an enlightened being is still more difficult since you lose your boundary. Opening up to an enlightened being allows you to experience yourself. Nithyananda then goes on to talk about a heart warming story of Kannappa, an innocent hunter who fully opened up to Shiva and became enlightened.

Techniques, Techniqueless Techniques & Upanishads
