Nithya, you are NOT Nithya |

Nithya,
You have raised an interesting question. If you are convinced that you are NOT Nithya Raghunathan, the key to open the lock of gateway is with you to attain self realization.
Let me explain.
When you dress suitable to your appearance, the dress is yours but you are not the “dress”. When you put lots of effort to maintain the physique, the physique is yours but you are not the “physique”. You have cultivated the habit of reading thereby increasing the bandwidth of your knowledge. The Knowledge is yours but you are not the knowledge. When you are happy, the happiness is yours but you are not the “happy”. When you give cheerful smile to your fellows the “smile” is yours but you are not the “smile”. When you shower love to your little child, the love is yours but you are not “Love”. When you think, the thoughts are yours but you are not the “thought”. In the similar way your name is Nithya Ranganathan but you are not Nithya Raghunathan.
If your body is not yours, knowledge is not yours, breath is not yours, mind is not yours, soul is not yours, name is not yours, IF YOU ARE NOT YOU, who are you? then. If your thinking happens in these lines, at one point of time you may realize the real meaning of self realisation.
When we pour sugar in milk it will go and settle in the bottom of glass until we stir it firmly. The holiness of a person is sleeping in our body like a sugar in the milk. The quality of divinity is hidden in our body like a sculpture is hidden in the stone. With our endeavor we should remove our ignorance to see the divinity within us like an artist shapes a sculpture.
So, if you know the “TRUE” form of you, that is self-realization. OK what is after that? You will reach the status of ‘Paramanandam’ (Ultimate satisfaction or happiness) and the soul will mingle with Paramathma. After that ‘you’ will not take rebirth and come to this suffering world.
But this is very very difficult. If we start our journey in this path, after several birth we may come to this position.
V.K.L. Raamanathan
