2. 1. RU, Rel, PF or anything more?
Find out if your needs can be fulfilled by Right Understanding, Relationship and Physical Facilities
Eg:
What I am… Right Understanding
Respect… RU + Feeling in Relationship
Nutritious Food… RU + Physical Facility
Is anything more needed (more than RU, R, PF)?
Is anything redundant (out of RU, R, PF)?

3. Ex: Sitting in a hot room… you are uncomfortable & unhappy
Q: Does an AC help you resolve your discomfort & unhappiness?
An AC does resolve the discomfort
Physical Facility is a solution for needs of the body ?
RIGHT UNDERSTANDING
(le>)
in the self ?
RELATIONSHIP (laca/k)
with human being 1
AIR CONDITIONER

4. Ex: Sitting in an AC room… with someone you are opposed to…
Q: Is the feeling of opposition naturally acceptable? Or do you want to get rid of the feeling of opposition, to resolve the relationship?
We can see that an AC has no impact in resolving relationship
Physical facility does not have any lasting impact in relationship. E.g. A gift can atmost distract attention for some time – it is not a solution
Only right understanding about relationship, and continuity of right feelings in oneself helps resolve relationship ?
RIGHT UNDERSTANDING
(le>)
in the self ?
OPPOSITION IN
RELATIONSHIP 1
AIR CONDITIONER

5. Ex: Sitting alone in an AC room… thinking about one you oppose...
Q: Does the AC help you resolve the contradiction in your thoughts?
We can see that an AC has no impact in resolving contradiction in thoughts (physical facility does not have any impact on understanding in the self)
Only right understanding helps resolve contradiction in thoughts ?
CONTRADICTION IN
THOUGHTS ?
RELATIONSHIP (laca/k)
with human beings 1

6. 1. RU, Rel, PF or anything more?
Right Understanding, Feelings in Relationship, Physical Facility with that priority
Accumulation of Physical Facility, Maximisation of Sensation
Find out which out of the above is your current program for Happiness & Prosperity
Which program is Naturally Acceptable to you?
What do you need to do to move from your current program to the program which is Naturally Acceptable to you?

9. 2. Categorize: Need of I and Need of Body
Make a list of Your desires
Categorize each desire as Need of I or Need of Body
Some needs will be for both I and for Body – you can reflect on what is the primary need
E.g.
Food for nurturing – need of Body
for taste – need if I
House for protection – need of Body
House to show others, to get respect – need of I
Q: What is the % of desires that are needs of I, % of needs of Body?
Q: % Effort for PF? % Effort for RU & RF?
Q: Re-evaluate the program to fulfill needs of I. PF can only fulfill needs of the Body

10. 2. Categorize: Need of I and Need of Body
About 10% desires are needs of the Body
About 90% desires are needs of Self(I)
About 10% effort is for Right Understanding & Relationship
About 90% effort is for Physical Facility
Most of the desires are of needs of Self(I)
Most of the effort is for Physical facility
Physical Facility can fulfill only needs of the Body…
… There is a mismatch between desire and effort …
What is the effort required to balance this?

11. 2. Categorize: Need of I and Need of Body – Effort
Sanskar (t+1) = Fn [Sanskar (t), Environment (t), Self Exploration (t)]
Proposal
Self Study, Self Verification
Listening (with comitment, concentration, listening to get the sense in which the speaker is indicating, not comparing with pre-conditioning)
Self-Exploration (to see the reality indicated by the words, to refer to your natural acceptance)
Right Understanding & Right Feeling in the Self (I)
Your Desire, Thought, Expectation is guided by your own Natural Acceptance

12. 3. Categorise: Preconditioning, Sensation and Natural Acceptance
Reflect on its underlying assumption
Eg. Nice house
Nice = comparatively better than other houses – preconditioning
Nice = luxurious – sensation
Nice = provides protection for body – natural acceptance

13. 3. Categorise: Preconditioning, Sensation and Natural Acceptance
Preconditioning: Assuming without knowing. Depends on something or someone outside, keeps changing. Not sure it leads to harmony or contradiction.
Sensation: taste of sound, touch, sight, taste, smell, 4 topics: food, sleep, fear/security, sex (samvedna – shabd, sparsh, roop, ras, gandh, 4 vishay: ahar, nidra, bhay, maithun)
tasty-necessary  tasty-unnecessary  tasteless-unnecessary  intolerable
Natural Acceptance: About meaning (sarthakta), Purpose or what to do as a human being. Leads to harmony (happiness) within, continuity is desirable, possible
Assurance (Ashwasti) – I am clear this is what I want to do
Satisfaction (Tripti) – I am sure that this will lead to harmony
Universal (Sarvbhaum) – It is same for all
Q: % Preconditioning, % Sensation and % Natural Acceptance

14. Relationship Reality
Continuous Happiness Nurturing, Protection & Right Utilisation 9 Feelings – Mutual Happiness – Justice 4 Human Goals Mutual Fulfillment / Co-existence I can directly see my relationship with this reality (natural characteristic). I have Natural Acceptance to fulfill this relationship. That is my participation. It is definite (WHAT TO DO) CONTEMPLATION
Self (I) Human Being Body Family (Other Human Being) Society = group of families Nature / Existence I can directly see (KNOW) the reality, harmony (self-organisation & submergence). The essence is definite UNDERSTANDING, REALISATION

15. Gross Misunderstanding
Relationship Maxisation of sensual enjoyment Maximisation of physical facility Maximisation of profit, domination Maximisation of profit, mastery Differing opinions about reality, relationship, goal ASSUMPTIONS
Perception of Reality Human Being = Body Other is a resource (for physical facility / sensation) Society = group of individuals Nature / Existence Existence is chaos. Survival of the fittest in Nature… ASSUMPTIONS

16. Natural Acceptance
About meaning (sarthakta), Purpose or what to do as a human being. Leads to harmony (happiness) within, continuity is desirable, possible
For Relationship [Mutual fulfillment, complimentarity]
For Harmony [Nature is by way of harmony, mutual enrichment]
For Co-existence [Essence of Existence is Co-existence]
Assurance (Ashwasti) – I am clear this is what I want to do
Satisfaction (Tripti) – I am sure that this will lead to harmony
Universal (Sarvbhaum) – It is same for all
Not about How to Do

17. Source of Happiness
Preconditioning: Manyata se milne wala sukh – haamari manyata puri ho jaye, doosra usko support kar de, doosre se milne vala bhav
Sensation: taste of sound, touch, sight, taste, smell, 4 topics: food, sleep, fear/security, sex (samvedna – shabd, sparsh, roop, ras, gandh, 4 vishay: ahar, nidra, bhay, maithun)
tasty-necessary  tasty-unnecessary  tasteless-unnecessary  intolerable
(ruchikar-avashyak  ruchikar-anavashyak  aruchikar-unavashyak  asahaniya)
Natural Acceptance: Apne mein bhav se milne wala sukh

18. Sukh ke srot
Samvedna se milne wala sukh
Manyata se milne wala sukh – haamari manyata puri ho jaye, doosra usko support kar de, doosre se milne vala bhav
Apne mein bhav se milne wala sukh

19. Sammohanatmak aavesh - Inko sukh maan lete hain
Aavesh (excitement)
Sammohanatmak aavesh - Inko sukh maan lete hain
Kaam = samvedna ko sukh maan lete hain, priya drishti ki ati, vaasna, lust, par-nari/par-purush
Lobh = suvidha ko sukh maan lete hain, greed of physical facility
Moh = doosre se bhav paa kar sukh milega, aisa maan lete hain. shareer sapekh sambandh ka adhimulyan
Virodhatmak aavesh - Inko dukh maan lete hain
Krodh = apni askhamta ka pradarshan, shreshtha ke abhav main
Mad = ni-shreshtha ka bhav, jisko ham sweekar nahi paa rahe, doosre ke saamne adhik bata rahen hain, apne baare kuch maane hue hain, evaluate karne ko tayyar nahin hain
Matsarya = doosre ke ahit ki kaamna (Algaav = Sambandh ki sweekriti ka abhav)

Sensation can not be a source of continuous happiness (harmony)
a) Tasty-Necessary  Tasty-Unnecessary  Tasteless-Unnecessary  Intolerable
(ruchikar-avashyak  ruchikar-anavashyak  aruchikar-unavashyak  asahaniya)

35. 3. Categorise: Preconditioning, Sensation and Natural Acceptance
About 5% desires are based on Natural Acceptance
About 60% desires are based on Preconditioning
About 35% desires are based on Sensation
If most of the Needs are based on Preconditioning or Sensation, then one is living mostly in Partantrata
Effort required for swatantrata:
a) Self awareness
b) Evaluation of desire on the basis of your natural acceptance
If desire is naturally acceptable, it will become definite & continue otherwise it will slowly become corrected or drop off

37. 3. Partantrata and Swatantrata
Preconditioning – Partantrata (Decided by outside)
Sensation – Partantrata (Decided by outside)
Natural Acceptance – Swatantrata (Self organised)
Q: % Partantrata and % Swatantrata

38. 4. Sequence of Desires: Goal or just a Step?
Desire (pkguk) – Aim, Objective, Purpose
To Become To Do/Get To Be
Banana Karna/Paana Hona
Doctor Service, Money, Respect… Happy & Prosperous
Engineer Make Things, Money, Respect … Happy & Prosperous
IIT Engineer Make Things, Money++, Respect++… Happy & Prosperous
Farmer Grow Things, Money, Respect… Happy & Prosperous
Thief Get Things, Money, Respect… Happy & Prosperous
…..
Steps toward Goal Basic Human Goal
Not the Goal Desire, Aim, Objective, Purpose
Teacher by Chance, Teacher by Choice…

39. Harmony in the Self
Basic Desire (pkguk) – Happiness, Prosperity  Intact, Uncorrupted, invariant
Connection = ? Preconditioning, Sensation, NA
Desire1 (eg. To be unique) Desire 2 (eg. To be accepted by everyone)
Harmony/Contradiction?
Similarly between 2 thoughts, 2 selections
Between desire and thought, between thought and selection
The disharmony in these is unhappiness
Harmony in these is happiness
Harmony in the self = harmony within
between basic desire and sub-desires (desires are based on contemplation "What is my role/participation in existence")
Between desire and thought
Between thoughts
Between thought & selection
Between selections

40. Desire – I am responsible. I will develop competence & fulfill
Dream – Other will fulfill
State of awareness – I am aware of my D, T, E
State of unawareness – I am not aware of my D, T, E
Desire/Thought/Expectation with commitment to achieve it – e.g. "going home from work" or "having a drink"
Desire/Thought/Expectation without firm commitment to achieve it – e.g. "going for a workshop" or "ensuring trust in relationship"

41. 4. Sequence of Desires: Goal or just a Step?
D1  D2  ….  Dn
Lakshya vs padav
Padav lakshya nahin hai, raasta ho sakta hai
If we are not clear about our goal, we assume the steps to be the goal; and since there are many steps, our goal seems ever changing and indefinite; external inputs influence the selection of steps – as inputs keep changing, our selection is also indefinite

42. Categorize: Expectation and Desire (Optional Advanced Exercise)
Sukh ki asha = bahar se = from outside (sensation or preconditioning)
Expectation (asha): kuch paana hai (samvedna, bhav). Yeh bahar se paana hai – iske asvadan se sukhi ho jayenge. Kya paana hai yeh asha hai
Thought (vichar): kuch karna hai. Kaise ka uttar vichar hai
Sukh ki iccha = andar = B2; sukh ka anubhav = B1, B2
Desire (ichha): kuch hona hai, yeh apne andar hona hai, aisa hone ki nirantarta chante hain. Kya hona hai ka uttar ichha hai
- sahi ichha = jiska sidha judav mool chahna se ho – jiske pura hone par mool chahna puri ho
- anyatha ichha = jiska judav mool chahna se manyata ke adhar par ho
Q: % Expectation and % Desire
We are mostly living at the level of Expectation / taste (aswadan)

43. Sources of Happiness
Right Understanding
Harmony at all levels of being
Human Being, Family, Society, Nature/Existence
– in Self (I) Definite completion point, Continuity is possible, Swatantrata
2. Right Feeling Trust, Respect, Affection, Care, Guidance,
Reverence, Glory, Gratitude, Love

3. Sensation, PF Sound, Touch, Form, Taste, Smell
– Through Body Temporary, Dependence on Body & Other,
Tasty-Necessary  Tasty-Unnecessary  Tasteless-Unnecessary  Intolerable

44. Purpose of Right Understanding, Right Feeling, Sensation/PF
Harmony at all levels of being
Human Being, Family, Society, Nature/Existence
– in Self (I) for happiness in the Self(I), definite completion pt.
2. Right Feeling Trust, Respect, Affection, Care, Guidance,
Reverence, Glory, Gratitude, Love
– From Other For evaluating state of other Self(I)
to identify complementarity in relationship
3. Sensation, PF Sound, Touch, Form, Taste, Smell
– Through Body For evaluating state of physical facility
to identify if it is OK for nurturing, protection
of body (health of body), exchanging feeling & right understanding
