21 Conditions - About these 21 Conditions

Awakening is to be free of the mind.These 21 points are like ropes holding up the mind.
As you become aware of each point, the ropes are being cut, making the self
dissolve quickly.
For all these points there are 3 ways to help you grow.
Practice externally these conditions in your daily life where ever possible.
Become aware that you do not have these qualities. Only then is there a
possibility of getting this.
Pray and ask AmmaBhagavan / Your Divine to give you these qualities.
(Prayer would be answered only when you have a bond with the Divine or
Amma/Bhagavan)
1. Lack of Passion
% Difference between passion and desire: A desire can be dropped. But passion
cannot. You live to have this.
% Desire can turn into passion if you know the gravity and need for it.
% To have passion for awakening, you must first understand that you are
suffering.
% The three types of suffering are:
1. Physical - when needs of body are not met, you will have physical
suffering
2. Psychological - as long as you have the mind, you will have
psychological suffering. When any of the 6 needs of the mind are denied
you will have suffering.
1. Certainty
2. Variety
3. Significance
4. Need to be loved, to love
5. Growth
6. Contribution
3. Spiritual Suffering
4. to exist is suffering. Suffering without any reason. The sense of
separation is this suffering. All suffering is only coming from spiritual
suffering. Its an alienation between man and man, man and God.
% The equation for suffering is: Spiritual + psychological + physical = constant
% The constant is not a constant, and is dependent on the amount of separation
one experiences in their life at any given time.
% The constant must come down to zero that is when suffering comes to zero.

The constant depends on the alienation one is having with man or God. As
you become closer to God the constant reduces.
% Become aware how you lack passion

To see how you are unable to forgive others who have caused you hurt. Forgiveness is very
important quality you should develop. By being hurt you are torturing yourself. Holding hurt
is a torture. See how it is a torture to yourself. Become aware of the lack of forgiveness. Pray
to Amma and Bhagavan asking them to help you to forgive.

time unaware even when aware you explain and not ask for forgiveness. You are trying to

lack of relationship.
6. Inner Integrity
To learn to be honest to ourselves. Lying to others is not such a big deal, but the moment we
lie outside, we try to lie to ourselves inside. One lie outside is a thousand lies to ones self.
The lies you have spoken to yourself has moved you away from your real you. Become
aware of lack of inner integrity.

affected others, it is very difficult to grow. So review your life.

nature of the self to crave for importance in all things. Become aware of the craving for
significance

part of the whole and are very insignificant would help you to grow. Most people feel as
though they understand everything. Humility is necessary for awakening, for awakening is
something you receive; not achieve. Become aware of lack of humility.
12. Sacredness
Modern civilization thinks it can understand and explain everything. Which loses the
mystery of life, which is joy, awe, and sacred. Humanitys explanation has killed the mystery
and sacredness of life. The All that is can never be understood. God is unknowable. When

knowing is that you truly can never know anything. Become aware of lack of sacredness

to you. To become aware of lack of faith.

abundance of Grace
21. Formal Gratitude to the Divine:
We many times say lord you have done so much for me how can I express my gratitude,
saying this we escape. To one of the devotee, his Antharyamin Bhagavan told him it is true at
a deeper level you cannot do anything, but in the physical plane you are living with me, so
express your gratitude formally. By doing this you are binding me and I am compelled to do
a favour for you. Your personal relationship grows.
