DON'T DIE, MERGE BACK INTO SOURCE

It is a scary experience. The first reaction of the passengers usually is to grab their seats tight, some of them fasten their seat belts and some even put on the oxygen mask. But then, would it prevent the plane from crashing? Or would it save them in the event the plane crashes? No.

You have boarded the plane and are now moving with the energy of it. The control over the plane is not in your hands, you are a mere passenger.

No matter what your social status, how many assets and wealth you possess or how good you look, you cannot save the body or the physical assets.

What should you do then, when you realise the plane is crashing? People tell me, will you pray for it not to crash? Maybe your prayers get answered and the plane does not crash that once. But then, how many times and for how long may this work?

The physical is temporary, it is bound to go. There is no one I know, who had been able to hold onto anything they collected. The plane has to crash some day. You, however, need not crash... yoga, under a guru, is the path to that.

The reason you panic is because you are body-conscious and because of the impressions of past experiences of the deaths in your previous births, which flash before your eyes as the plane crashes. It is the fear of what awaits on the other side of life, the pain and trauma you will have to go through, to pay back for all that you did while you were on the plane.

Plane crash does not literally mean a plane crash. It is indicative of death which is around the corner.
You need not wait for the plane to crash to know where you are headed. There are specific kriyas in Sanatan Kriya through which you can get the experience beforehand.

A student of mine reported seeing people burning in boiling oil, and people with strange looking insects all over them… and this is just the beginning for those who spend their entire life living for the self (which they understand as the body), turning their face away from the pain and misery of fellow beings and creation at large.

You either move up in creation or you move down, you can never be stationary. This applies to all aspects of life—health, finances, relationships and even spiritual evolution.

Even if today you have all that you desire, it won’t last for long. Yet, you keep chasing it because your consciousness is limited to the body and the five senses.

You neither know nor have experienced the realms beyond, which exist (sadhaks in Dhyan Ashram are living testimony to the fact) and it is these realms that control and govern the physical body.

When you take the body to be the finality, you panic in a crashing plane. If, at that time, you take your awareness to the sushumna nadi and focus on Shiv at the agya, you will not die; you will merge back into the source.

MERGER OF SHIV AND SHAKTI

Shiv is the doer and may be likened to a vehicle. If you remove ‘i’ from Shiv, it becomes ‘shav’ (corpse). The ‘i’ represents Shakti, which is the fuel that energises this vehicle to perform action. Shakti is the force of the physical world. Shivratri is the night of merger of Shiv and Shakti making a complete whole. Shiv and Shakti pertain to manifest creation and arise from the unmanifest. The journey back to the unmanifest can be carved only through their complete merger which is the ultimate purpose of yoga and Sanatan Kriya . A practical example of merger of Shiv and Shakti is the institution of marriage where the merger of male and female leads to manifestation of a new life. If there is a mismatch in this merger of male and female, or Shiv and Shakti, the marriage remains incomplete. This imbalance is evident in the progeny who will exhibit anti-social and undesirable behaviour and traits. The rishis of yesteryear explained how incompleteness sets into the child in t...

Chakra Beej Kriya: Part 1

Yog is not about twisting and turning yourself into knots and complicated postures, yog taps into the power of consciousness. As you practice yog in totality, as prescribed, you start glowing and the immunity of the body heightens, slowly you begin to exude the glow of the sun. The body that we greet in the mirror everyday is run by a higher force, which is invisible to the naked eye but very clearly visible to a clairvoyant in the form of colours and to a clairaudient in the form of specific sounds. These colours and sounds correspond to certain energy centers in the body, which control and govern various body parts and functions. Much before you identify symptoms of a disease or ailment and decide to visit a doctor, these symptoms are perceived by a yogic practitioner in the form of change in colour, texture, size and sound of various chakras. Sanatan Kriya prescribes various techniques under the topic of self-healing to access this invisible sheath of the body and through...
