Notes 12 July

 Namachivayam Sunday Satsang – July 12, 2026  The Sunday Chivsang was held in a peaceful and spiritually uplifting atmosphere amidst nature. During the satsang, Masterji explained that true happiness begins with a light and cheerful mind. He spoke about dopamine, the "feel-good" hormone, which is naturally released when we experience joy and positivity. By smiling, remaining pleasant, and avoiding unnecessary stress, we promote mental and physical well-being. Masterji cautioned that excessive attachment to mobile phones and constant exposure to disturbing information often create anxiety and rob us of inner peace. A central teaching of the discourse was that one should not carry guilt over mistakes. Instead, mistakes should be acknowledged, corrected, and not repeated. Dwelling on guilt creates mental impressions (samskaras), leading to suffering and karmaphala. According to Masterji, it is not the action itself but our perception and emotional attachment (bhavane) that becom...

Notes 21 June

 Namachivayam Sunday Chivsangh  – June 21, 2026 The Sunday Chivsangh was conducted in a serene and spiritually charged atmosphere amidst nature, fostering peace and introspection among the Abhyasis. Following silent meditation, Masterji delivered a profound discourse centered on the question, “What does it mean when we say that God protects us?” Masterji explained that Space is God, and all beings have originated from Space and are destined to return to it. God’s protection lies in helping souls complete this return journey to their source. He emphasized that true spiritual progress requires maintaining inner peace regardless of external circumstances. A person who keeps the mind balanced and free from disturbance remains in a state of Shanthi (peace). According to Masterji, sorrow arises from negativity accumulated in the mind through Karmapala, the consequences of past actions. Every individual possesses inherent Godliness, but this divine nature is obscured by layers of kar...

Notes 14 June

 Namachivayam Sunday Chivasangh  June 14, 2026 The Sunday Chivasangh was held in a serene and spiritually uplifting atmosphere surrounded by greenery and the soothing sounds of birds. The gathering began with silentation by the Abhyasis, creating an environment of peace and introspection. With the arrival of the Divine Master, the atmosphere became even more tranquil and charged with spiritual energy. Masterji began his discourse by asking whether everyone present was happy. He explained that true happiness should be a natural state of being, but it is often disturbed when the mind becomes crowded with thoughts. According to him, the primary reason for human unhappiness lies in the dualities of likes and dislikes. People become attached to what they like and distressed when faced with what they dislike. These attachments and aversions create emotional fluctuations and prevent lasting happiness. He further explained that every person is born and must eventually face death. Betw...

Notes 07-June

 **Summary of Sunday Satsang – June 7, 2026** The Sunday Chivsang was held in a peaceful and spiritually uplifting atmosphere, enhanced by meditation and the presence of the Enlightened Master. Masterji began the discourse by posing a profound question: **“Are we born to suffer or enjoy?”** He explained that both happiness (*sukha*) and sorrow (*dukkha*) are states of the mind (*manasu*). Human beings experience these dualities through worldly attachments and circumstances. Events that bring happiness today may become the source of sorrow tomorrow. Therefore, a spiritual seeker must learn to view both pleasure and pain with equal detachment. Masterji emphasized that the mind is responsible for creating experiences of happiness and sorrow. Through the proper use of *buddhi* (intelligence or discrimination), one can transcend these dualities. When the mind no longer reacts to pleasure and pain, true peace (*shanthi*) arises. This inner peace leads to liberation and ultimately to unio...

Notes 31 May

 Namachivayam Sunday Chivasangh – May 31, 2026 The Sunday Chivasangh was conducted in a serene and spiritually uplifting atmosphere amidst the beauty of nature, accompanied by the soothing sounds of birds. The session began with meditation by the Abhyasis, and the arrival of the Divine Master further deepened the tranquility and spiritual vibrations of the gathering. Masterji centered his discourse on the nature of peace and disturbance. He posed a profound question: *Does peacefulness depend upon external circumstances, or does disturbance arise from one's own mental conception and reaction?* He explained that peace is not determined by the environment, objects, or the behavior of others. Rather, it depends on how the mind interprets and responds to situations. According to him, disturbances originate within when we allow external events to enter and influence the mind. To illustrate this truth, Masterji referred to situations such as criticism or harsh words from a spouse, collea...
