The Concept Of Ageing

Not very long ago, a British University studying the behavior of heavenly bodies and recording the sounds emitted by them, concluded that the sound of om is the sound which the sun gives out. Ofcourse, they called it the sound emitted from transverse pulling of the guitar string, but still no one has ever conducted such a research, kudos to this university for reintroducing us to the power of om, which has been called as the eternal sound of creation by the vedic masters. Now we have modern science backing this! Vedas are the source of everything. Time and again, great men across cultures have turned back to the vedas to find an answer to the deepest secrets of creation, be it the working and properties of heavenly bodies, complex theories of science and geometry, or the undying quest to find a solution to an ageing body... In deep states of dhyan, I have encountered rishis and yogis, with long lustrous hair, flawless body, glowing skin and youthful radiance...how is it tha...

Karma and Shakti

There is absolutely no technique to be followed in Yog as it comes only through experience. YOGI ASHWINI deconstructs many myths related to the ancient sciences and the modern day yoga courses. Excerpts: Once, a student of mine had gone to attend a programme at the reputed California School of Ayurveda. One day, I got a panic call from her saying, “All that they are teaching is diametrically opposite of what you say.” I told her to ask them, why they are teaching the opposite way. She replied, that when she tries to explain to them, the response she gets is, “Do you know more than us? There could be a difference of opinion... Your opinion is different from ours and you are also right and we are also right.” This is a very dangerous thought. The particular discussion was about the five  mahapranas  that control the body. These  vayus  move in a particular direction only.  Prana  and  Udana  go upwards,  Samana  moves sideways,...

The Guru Shakti

Once I was lecturing at the Oxford University, when a journalist asked me what is yog. I told him, ‘Yog is Guru’. He replied, "If you talk like this we will not be able to publish this article, because in this part of the  world , we do not believe in gurus." I could not help but smile, I told him, "We are one billion Indians, we can export yoga in a billion ways to you, but if you ask me about yog, there is only one. Yog is Guru. You and I can do nothing to change that." This is a problem that one faces not just in the West, this is a problem of the  yug . Someone asked me recently, "Why the country which boasts of such great discoveries and inventions from the past, is today a ‘third-world’ country. Whatever happened to the richness of our culture and advancement of our sciences, where is the charm?" The answer lies here. The charm disappeared with the disrespect of the Guru. Start respecting the Guru, and it will be back. Take a look a...

Fight Nicotine Addiction

The habitual use of tobacco in any form constricts the arteries to such an extent that the blood flow gets affected. All those who try to quit smoking experience at least one or more of these symptoms: cravings to smoke, difficulty concentrating, nervousness, restlessness, irritability, anxiety, cognitive impairment, increased appetite and, eventually, weight gain. So much so that it becomes a constant struggle to overcome this addiction. Many times, people shift their addiction from one substance to another. A tried and tested way to reduce all these symptoms is to practice Sanatan Kriya. The habitual use of tobacco in any form constricts the arteries to such an extent that the blood flow gets affected. To unclog the arteries, you need to ensure that the prana (life force) is appropriately distributed in your body. For this, you need to learn yogic breathing. So, first sit in vajrasana. As you inhale, you fill your breath in the abdominal region, move it to your thoracic and...

Positive thinking: The Path of Yog

Being a yoga guru and having students from all walks of life and all over the world, it would seem like my life is very comfortable with an overflowing bank account. But to disappoint all the gurus in the making (who aim to have overflowing bank accounts by getting into the selling of yoga) and to scare those who are already doing it, I would like to highlight the reality. To embark on this beautiful journey called yog, you come in contact with various aspects of divinity and a one-to-one connection is developed with them. The siddhis detailed in Patanjali Ashtang Yog are accessed easily. Be it wealth, it is at your beck and call without having to sell any complicated asanas and kriyas. Even the opposite sex is drawn to you like bees to nectar. Even the manifestation of thoughts becomes so fast that you have to only think and the thought materializes. But, to disappoint you all, the situation at this point of time is like ‘water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink’. ...

Yog is the True Guru

Once I was lecturing at the Oxford University, when a journalist asked me, “What is yog?” I told him, “Yog is guru”. He replied, “If you talk like this, we will not be able to publish this article, because in this part of the world, we do not believe in gurus.” I could not help but smile.  I told him, “We are one billion Indians, we can export yog in a billion ways to you, but if you ask me about yog, there is only one. Yog is guru. You and I can do nothing to change that.” This is a problem that one faces not just in the West, but in this yug. I was asked recently, “Why is India, which boasts of great discoveries and inventions in the past, today a ‘third-world’ country? What happened to the richness of our culture and advancement of our sciences?” It disappeared with disrespect of the guru. Start respecting him, and it will be back. Take a look at anyone from the age of 18 to 80, across nations— hardly anyone is willing to accept the guru. In the guru’s absence, neither...

The Power of Pink

Every relationship is symbiotic as it is based on give and take. You are in it because you are getting something from the other person and vice-versa. No matter how close a person might be to you, the moment you stop giving or the moment this “give and take” comes to an end, the relationship ceases to exist. The only relationship that is an exception to this rule is that of a mother and a child, that too from the mother’s side and not vice-versa. The mother holds unconditional love for her child and nurtures and raises him/her without expecting anything in return. Every religion gives utmost respect to the mother for she is the creator of creation. She is shakti and, therefore, it makes sense to have every day as the day of the mother — the epitome of unconditional love. If you look at the depiction of a mother in any culture or faith, she will be shown to hold the child against her chest, for that is the seat of unconditional love in a human being. The pranic layer of a hu...

The Truth of Satsang

When you keep an iron nail next to a magnet, after sometime the nail starts exhibiting magnetic properties. If you put ice in hot water, after sometime it melts and the water becomes cold. History speaks of the Paras Mani, the divine stone, the touch of which changes everything into gold. A rotten fruit causes all the other fruits in the basket to rot. Human beings are no different. An English proverb says that a man is known by the company he keeps. When two people spend a lot of time together, after sometime they start becoming like each other. This happens because in every interaction—with a person, an animal, a plant or even an object—there occurs an exchange of prana. In the realm of the ether and to a clairvoyant eye, this is visible as a change in colour of the aura—yellow interacts with a blue to become green, but the same yellow when interacting with black becomes brown. No wonder our ancestors emphasised upon the importance of good company or satsang, the company of evolved...

Unveil the real you

The world of the spirit starts where logic ends. Though logic, in the modern world, is the ultimate test of reason and the pinnacle of intelligent thought, minds on a higher plane see logic as ‘lower intelligence’ limited by the boundaries of reason which is further limited by the limitations of the individual’s buddhi. Which probably explains why every school of spiritualism or any mystical practice emphasises experience over analysis. Also, why the overtly questioning mind chatters incessantly only at the peripheries of the spirit-kingdom, seldom able to penetrate its very core. Forget the core. It cannot even unravel the first layer. However, since the current world speaks and comprehends only the tongue of logic, we shall try to understand the aura, a subject firmly embedded in the spirit realm in this context. All bodies emit heat radiation or vibrations. This is a superficial or logical explanation of what auras are and why they are constant or changing. A lot of ‘scien...
