Creation exists in layers, some perceivable by our five senses, for some higher senses are required. Yet all the layers exist and the subtler or higher layers control the layers below, the creation as it appears to an ordinary person being the grossest layer, which is controlled by the subtler layers, the layer of energy, the world of ether. Every entity on earth is a reflection of energy, is influenced by and influences the world of energy and hence, has an effect on every aspect of creation – be it a dog, a monkey, a cow, a tree, stone or a human being. The realm of energy manifests itself first in the form of a thought, then sound, then colour, and finally the five elements that constitute the bodies of the trees, animals, humans, stones, alike. The sciences of premonition, clairaudience, clairvoyance , healing , etc stem from here. Sanatan Kriya brings the various layers of a being and as a result certain higher centres open up, allowing a practitioner to perceive the vari...

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’. ...

The sun rises every morning and sets every evening; water evaporates and comes back to us as rain. If you look at creation around you, everything to do with it is a cycle. Nothing is permanent and there is no such thing as destruction. Einstein retold us what the Vedas have been saying for thousands of years — that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it only changes form. Just because the day is over and the sun has set does not mean that the day will not come again. The darkest of nights leads to the brightest of days. Creation consists of opposites, to make a whole. When these opposites diverge it is called destruction and when they converge it is called birth.  The night of Shivratri is a night of birth. It is a night of merger, a night of creation, a night of manifestation and a night of thought fulfillment. The word shiva consists of shav, which is a dead body and i, which is shakti — the force which runs creation. This force needs a vehicle or a body to manife...

You look at the cosmos, you look at the farthest of stars that the human eye can see, only to find out that someone somewhere has discovered another star, another galaxy, further away from what you thought was the extent of the universe. You will be surprised to know that the galaxy he ‘discovered’ did not exist before. It is just the consciousness of the person who is looking at it, who was searching for it, who focused his entire life on it that actually created that star. Such is the power of the brain. Consciousness is the sum total of the manifested and the unmanifested. Manifested consciousness is what you can perceive with your five senses — the things you can see, hear, smell, touch and taste. Unmanifested consciousness is what is beyond these five basic senses. The concept of consciousness has a very close bearing to your brain. In an ordinary being, only 7-8% of the brain is functional, and this caters to the experiences of the five senses. As you grow in yoga, with pract...
