Notes 15 feb
Namachivayam
Sunday Satsang (Feb 15, 2026)**
The Sunday Satsang began with deep meditation at the Mouna Mantappa, and the physical presence of the revered Master after a brief absence intensified the atmosphere of peace and devotion. Masterji centered his discourse on Mukthi (liberation), emphasizing that it can be attained only through Adhyatmikathe (spiritual practice) and complete non-attachment. Attachment, he explained, arises from the mind and is the root cause of suffering. When the mind is silenced through sincere practice, purity emerges, leading to Anandha (bliss). Ultimately, when the mind becomes entirely free from even the slightest trace of attachment, one attains Nirvana.
He stressed dissolving the sense of “Naanu” (I) and “Nanadhu” (Mine). By cultivating the attitude of “Idham Na Mama” (this is not mine), a seeker gradually transcends possessiveness and ego, realizing “Yavudhu Nanadhalla” (nothing is mine). True spiritual progress requires inner strength to remain undisturbed even during grave situations. Constant remembrance of the Master and disciplined practice help strengthen the mind and foster purity.
Masterji also spoke about death, stating that it is inevitable and should be accepted without fear or sorrow. Just as birth is celebrated, death too is a natural event. The body perishes, but the mind, with its unfulfilled desires, continues and leads to rebirth. Therefore, one must cultivate detachment while alive and be prepared to leave the body at any moment without reservation.
In response to the question “Neenu Yaaru?” (Who are you?), he encouraged introspection and independence from external dependencies, emphasizing inner completeness and self-reliance. He distinguished between a Gyani and a Scholar, explaining that a Gyani values truth over status, remains silent when ridiculed, avoids arguments, and remains steady in all circumstances, unlike a Scholar who may prioritize intellect and position.
Masterji highlighted the attributes of Brahman—Sathyam (Truth), Jnanam (Consciousness), and Anantham (Infinity)—and urged seekers to aspire for the state of Sthitha Pragna, steady wisdom. In today’s age, he emphasized that attaining Nimmadhi (inner peace) is more important than material gains, and sincere spiritual practice leads one toward Mukthi.
Finally, Masterji said that one should experience the Chivam, the Truth(Satyam) within oneself in stillness (Shivam) and darkness which is beautiful (Sundaram) on the occasion of "Chivarathri".
