#HappyNewYear…What’s New? Ever wondered? You have been here before – in a similar body, among similar people, with similar desires, goals and aspirations and the same set of five problems (which were discussed in a previous article). The change is that your body is weaker, relationships more temporary, jobs less satisfying, the surroundings more polluted, the tastes and pleasures grosser than before. And this change too is not new, the trend has been with every birth and in the present birth, with every passing year, month, day and hour… The Garbha Upanishad, which is a treatise on conception and birth of a child as documented by Sage Pippalada, details the continuity of life and how the fetus in the ninth month of pregnancy remembers its previous births and lives and makes a promise that this birth will be different. But the moment it comes in contact with the outside world, it forgets its promise. This happens, every time the soul takes a body…it is this forgotten ...

Guru, a four-lettered word, has the phenomenal potential of taking you beyond; not beyond the pains and miseries of life, but beyond yourself. In other words, beyond what you know yourself as, opening the doors to the higher worlds and taking you through experiences which turn you from a normal being to a super being. A guru-shishya relationship is beyond the ambit of maya or a commercial transaction. Guru does not charge a material fee for what he gives you, for it is said that material is maya and it binds you to the physical and someone who himself is bound with the physical cannot take you beyond. In Vedic philosophy, the highest place and regard is given to the energy called Guru. Guru’s shakti (force) is not limited, as the energy is anant (endless) and akhand (expansive). The first Guru, or Adi Guru, is Lord Ardhanarishwar, Lord Shiva Himself. He is the energy responsible for the dissolution and transformation of all forms of existence. Souls who have complet...

To experience the senses and all that the divine has created, the swaroop of a soul is insufficient. Let me share a little story of creation. At the time, there was nothing. Just one vibrant light and a lot of smaller lights (energies) revolving around it in its attraction. They had no desire at this stage, no thought—the state of absolute bliss. Then, suddenly, among the cluster of lights, one small light got a thought—‘I want’—and it set out on a search. As it went, a few more lights joined it. These lights then reached a place abounding in natural beauty, but they were unable to experience it. The main light then gave each of those lights a special suit. Wearing these suits, the lights could experience the many sights. So enamoured were they, that they didn’t even realise that their glow was now covered by the suit, to which they were bound. Slowly, they forgot all about the main light and the state of bliss they were in. Now they were a body, no more a point of light....

Our body is composed of millions of colours each with a range of its own, how subtle or gross the colour is what defines the health of your body. Disease, as per yog, is a symptom of an imbalance which first manifests in the etheric layers and is visible to a clairvoyant in the form of grosser shades or colours. From there it makes its way into the physical body. Sanatan Kriya details certain techniques to access the etheric layer and bring it to balance - removing any symptom before it manifests as a disease in the physical.  Having discussed the fundamental concepts of Spiritual Healing in the previous article we now move on to the technique of Healing. The techniques of healing are of two kinds: Self Healing and Healing others. In both cases, we must do some basic preparation before the start of any healing. Steps: 1. Start by invoking the energy of Guru , because you are just a channel for the prana to flow, and the source is somewhere else. 2. Sit ...

A diseased body is nothing but a result of an imbalance. This imbalance can be corrected by Spiritual Healing while ensuring that the root cause of the disease is removed without any damage to the physical body. Unlike most modern medical sciences, that tend to suppress the disease or kill the diseased cell, which is the symptom, Spiritual Healing transforms the cause of the disease. Spiritual Healing finds mention in one of the 4 Vedas called the Atharvaveda given by Rishi Angiras under the section of Yatu Vidya where it has been explained in detail. Yatu stands for now and Spiritual Healing also happens with no time lag. It effectuates the healing from the dimension of colour. There are different colours with millions of shades in this Creation. Each shade is associated with specific attributes. Some are pleasant, soothing, some represent love, some Divinity, some stand for power, some for anger, and some are dull and depressing. All are different and have different e...

People often ask me, “Why can I not read all the books available and the vedas and evolve? Why do I need a guru? I cannot bow before another man." Such questions and emotions expressed so frequently make me think about the role of a guru. It is the result of good karma of all the previous lifetimes that the gate of a being’s good fortune opens and s/he meets a guru. As a rule, this never happens unless preceded by intense sadhana performed in the previous births. Moreover, very often it happens that even if a great saint, the very incarnation of Lord Shiva, appears in front of an unfortunate being, he is so blinded by ignorance or ego that he takes Him to be an ordinary person and starts judging Him with his limited senses. Whereas if someone has acquired good fortune through positive karma in previous births then love and single-minded devotion at the feet of the guru are his natural qualities — s/he would never lose the chance of meeting Him and recognising that i...
