SriAmma Bhagavan's Webcast September 12
Love you all. Love you so much. Nice to be back with you once again. So very nice to be back with you. So we will start the process without any delay.
I will be giving you a deeksha today to help you become aware of one's craving for significance. The easiest and fastest way to grow on the spiritual path is to be intensely aware of one's craving for significance.
In a short while from now I will be giving you the deeksha Indian style. That is, I will be going into a state of deep meditation and you would touch the padukas and receive the deeksha or whatever items are in front of the Sri Murthi or any item in front of you.
So as I move into meditation, you would receive the deeksha from the padukas or from any item that you have placed in front of the television screen or whatever screen is there.
Over the following week I would be giving you either a message or a teaching or a commentary which would be posted on our website.
You would have to get into the website and contemplate on the teaching or the message or the commentary, and the deeksha I would be giving would be appropriate to whatever has been spoken for the particular week.
These deekshas would be immensely powerful and they would be stepped up every week. Week after week they would be continuously stepped up.
Now, as I move into meditation, you would come and receive the deeksha and then you would meditate along with me for the next 15 minutes. After that you would move into the sacred space and meditate for as long as you want. That is up to you.
So now we start the meditation and the deeksha.

The Four Factors of Success

There are four factors which are essential for the success of an individual. First and foremost, you need a clear vision. A life without a vision is like a journey without a destination. Every one of you has an option, either to drift along like a dry leaf carried in the winds or fly like an arrow towards your goal and the universe would help you reach where you want. The universe is like 'Aladin's Majic Lamp', it will give you whatever you seek. Secondly, you need to have a focused mind. A mind that is capable of attention, that is capable of hard thinking. Thirdly, you ought to have excellent relationships within the family. A strong civilisation stands on the foundation of a strong family. In a world of accelerated change which requires a very loving relationship between children and parents to keep ourselves sane. If your relationship with your parents is set right all problems whether with your academics or with your career will dissolve miraculously. Ultimately, you need to live in a state free of conflict, a state of existence where you feel connectedness and love.
What factors dictate a human life? What should one do to receive abundant grace?

Human life is controlled basically by four factors - past life vasanas, the four stages of birth, the decisions you have taken in your childhood and your later day conditioning. If you are not able to receive grace or succeed in life, any of these factors could be responsible. It is possible to be liberated from the negative effects of these factors. I and Amma, will do it for you. But, the key factor to receive grace is to set right your relationship with your parents. In which case, I and Amma will be very very powerful in you. We would guide you and help you wherever and whenever necessary.
Relationships with Parents

Setting right relationship with your parents is the utmost priority, then comes the seva aspect. So technically what happens is all relationships reflect your relationship with your parents. So we reflect exactly what has happened between you and your parents. Now the relations you have with your family and friends and all at your places of your work, all that again depends upon this relationship with your parents. Once this is set right, everything falls into place and life is relationship. So, what happens is life also reflects these relationships. That is why if you have a terrible relationship with your father, you are most likely to have financial problems. Because, life would reflect that. If it is a very bad relationship with your mother, then you will have needless obstacles. That is how life would reflect it. Life is relationship.
How this actually happens is when this relationships are set right, something happens to the heart, your heart in turn affects the brain, from the brain some signals are sent out. That is that somebody has to give you money and is not giving that money to you. Now once you have set right your relationship, your heart send a signal to the brain, the brain is an instrument which transmits energies. He would pick up this energies, he would have a change of heart and he would give that money back to you. So the technical aspects are not so important. But, empirically you can verify. You do this, you would get that. Try it and see.
Anybody is having a terrible financial problem, set right your relationship with your father and you see there is an immediate improvement. And you are having needless obstacles, set right relationship with your mother and you would see immediate improvement. This can be experimentally verified. All that you are talking can actually be verified at the ground level.
