DHYAN FOUNDATION

The sun rises, and sets, and rises again the next morning. Water evaporates, falls back as water, and evaporates once again. The tree blooms, sheds leaves, and bears fresh leaves once again. It is an unending cycle, with no beginning or end, just like the source, the shivling which is an oval, the journey of the spirit being a continuous spiral motion up and down the oval with no beginning or end, the destination of journey being merger with the core. All aspects of creation reside in this form– the good and the bad and the evil. Sunrise too is shiv, sunset too is shiv. In the realm of shiv, there is no distinction. It is up to an individual what part he/she chooses to access. Let us look at the swaroop of shiv parivar. Shiv holds Ganga in his locks which signifies purity, the neck is adorned with Mund-maala (garland of skulls) which is a form of Mahakaal that signifies impurity and at the bottom is urik or vaak charm, again signifying impurity (mrit shareer or dead body)....

“Om poornamidah poornamidam poornaata poornam uddachhyate Poornasya poornamaadaaya poornamevaava shishyate Om” The above shloka implies that infinity plus infinity is infinity, infinity minus infinity is infinity, infinity multiplied by infinity is infinity and infinity divided by infinity is also infinity. The brahmand is a complete whole. Everything has emerged from it and will go back to it. It has no boundaries; it is infinite. Our body is a poorna ansh (complete part) of Creation. Like everything else in Creation, our body, too, is run on the principle of balance and imbalance. When you are in a state of balance, you exude health, beauty, glow and radiance.
