The very knowledge gets solidified inside you. It becomes your very breath, your very life. Nididhyasa is when knowledge has become a permanent wealth in your mind, your consciousness and in your body. It gets filtered into every cell of the body.

कर्मानुष्ठानमज्ञानाद्यथैवोपरमस्तथा ।
बुध्वा सम्यगिदं तत्तवमेवाहमास्थितः ॥
Know this truth very well. There is a difference in just knowing and knowing it too well. There are three things that I have mentioned earlier. One is shravana (listening). Another is manana. One or two of these words come in the mind again and again, now and then, here and there. The words you listened to suddenly pop up in the mind. These words imply meaning at different times, and at different levels of consciousness.
You can't say you have have done a course after doing it just once, because every time you do it, something new opens up - something delicate opens up, and something finer comes into your perception and this is called manana. You may have heard of something, but just hearing it and forgetting it is of no use. Hear a word or sentence, and then meditate on it, e.g. "There are no people in the world.... no people in the world", or, "all is happening...is happening...while world is like a flowing river...events are flowing...events are flowing." Have you ever sat with one of these sentences, this knowledge? Just sit for a few minutes. Sit on a rock or on a hill. Be relaxed with your eyes closed. One word or sentence opens up an awareness - e.g. 'Everything is changing. Events are flowing. I cannot catch hold of any one event. However pleasant or unpleasant, they cannot remain. We cannot hold onto them. They move away.' This awareness, when the mind becomes null and void, is called manana.
And then, nididhyasa, or knowing it well deep inside. The very knowledge gets solidified inside you. It becomes your very breath, your very life. Nididhyasa is when knowledge has become a permanent wealth in your mind, your consciousness and in your body. It gets filtered into every cell of the body. Have you observed that whatever you put your attention on,goes deep into you. It permeates every cell of your body; in every particle. When you are angry, the anger filters into every cell of your body. If you are distressed,that distress spreads very quickly into every cell. In the same way, when you are in love or joyful, it spreads very deeply, in every cell of your body. That is what happens when you sing the Sanskrit (ancient) names. The Sanskrit names have already been there for long,because our consciousness is very, very old. Somewhere they are there. And you are also singing from the outside. The bhajans go deep into you, though you may not understand what they mean. It doesn't matter, but they make you merge into it and flow with it. The entire consciousness becomes alive. Evey cell in your body becomes alive in the most natural manner.
