Nithyanandam is a 15-day unique and intense meditation
camp that Swamiji is conducting in the ashram in Bangalore. Through
this program, Swamiji works directly upon the cancerous tumours
of ego in each and every participant, making them intensely aware
of the various forms of ego deeply hidden in them. Swamiji continuously
puts the participants through multi-various activities like discourse
and meditation, worship, or Ananda
Seva (blissful service), during which he churns their
whole Being and continuously purifies them.
The core message of the program in Swamiji's words
is: Man is by nature made up of un-clutched, abstract, unconnected,
irrational and illogical thoughts. Each thought arises in him and
dies before the next thought comes. But he tries to connect similar
thoughts and form shafts of either pain or pleasure and because
of this he suffers. Clutching into this shaft is the Original Sin.
This clutching is the root cause that is preventing man from experiencing
the liberated or enlightened state while living on planet Earth.
To be un-clutched from this shaft at all times is the greatest liberation
for man.
Through this technique of un-clutching from the
shaft of thoughts, Swamiji creates an inner space in each and everyone,
to discover their inherent nature, which is nothing but silence
and bliss. He teaches one to play the game of Life with spontaneity
and joy, centered in this inner space and functioning effortlessly
at the periphery.
