Title:
Physical Body, Dream Body & Deep Sleep Body
Description:
From the works of Living Enlightened Master Paramahamsa Nithyananda. In this clip taken from discourse titled, "From Known to Knowing" Swamiji gives an in-depth understanding of the three bodies. In this ananda sutra technique given to us by Mahadeva, Swamiji explains to us that in the physical body, the gap between us and the world outside is large. In the dream state this gap is small. That is why the moment we suspect we are in the dream state we wake up. Form is the essence of the physical body and prana is the essence of the dream body. Knowing (and not known) is the essence of the deep sleep state. A person who can handle all three bodies and can go beyond is enlightened. By understanding all the three bodies, the focus will be shifted to the fourth state of consciousness, the turiya state.

Title:
Sensitivity - Deeper Truths Revealed
Description:
From the works of Living Enlightened Master Paramahamsa Nithyananda. In this clip taken from discourse titled, "From Known to Knowing" Swamiji tells us that this sutra from Shiva is for those who are sensitive. Sensitivity is often a misunderstood word and is equated to weakness. Swamiji tells us that a sensitive person is aware and ready to be spontaneous. He reveals deep truths about the chakras which influence our various states. He tells us that in waking state our identity happens in Ajna chakra, in dream state the visuddhi chakra and in deep sleep state the Anahata chakra. He tells us that we enter ananda gandha chakra in the turiya state.
