DHYAN FOUNDATION

Yog is to be one with nature. In this sense, anything that follows the code of nature is in yog. Suppose we observe the things around us, say a tree... Green leaves, branches spreading far and wide, fruits and flowers, a tall thick trunk and roots that run deep into the ground -- that's what we would expect to see. Now, if one were to imagine a tree devoid of these attributes, would it still be called a tree? Why doesn't a tree (even in our imagination) exist without these attributes? This is because each of these individual traits is indispensable for the tree to perform its dharma. A tree withstands the vagaries of nature – storms, downpours and floods – to protect the flora, fauna and soil. A tree provides for those around it – animals, birds and insects with food and shelter, as nurturer and healer. A tree purifies the air around it, binds the soil together, participates in causing rain, a tree decomposes to enrich the earth and it befriends the environment. The tree i...

Guru a word, a four-lettered word, has the phenomenal potential of taking you beyond, beyond not 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. So let us go beyond these four letters, into the energy of these four letters, to fathom this phenomenal force. 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. Guru has to take you beyond the clutches of maya to give you the real experience. In vedic philosophy the highest place and regard is given to the energy called Guru. Guru is not a physical being; Guru is the energy considered even higher than Para Brahma, the divi...

Sanatan Kriya (synthesized by Yogi Ashwini),    as the word "SANATAN" indicates is a complete kriya, complete meaning, that it covers all the aspects of a human being and it balances all the layers of individual human existence. A human being is not just what the five senses perceive, as a blind man can not sea a human body but can touch it, taste it ,hear it or smell it,simillarly in a normal human being there is activation of just the five senses and 8 to 10% of brain activity,with this limited activity he or she can only perceive the basic sheath of existence ,this sheath is made up of the five basic elements viz.Earth,Air,Water,Fire and Ether.The five active senses are able to perceive this sheath and falsely the limited brain takes this perception to be the complete human being. The proof that  their exists other senses lies in the fact that each one of us knows someone who at some stage in life has had a premonition or has had a brush with the para...

PEARLS BEFORE SWINES YOGI ASHWINI The saying ‘Don’t waste pearls before swines’ traces its origin back to the time when Gyan of Geeta was rendered by Shri Krishna. It has a deep meaning attached to it. How can we ignore the immense knowledge or rightly the Gyan that the people of that era had.

Yoga is a practice, which requires a very strict discipline and a Guru, and, if either is missing there can be no Yoga. It is said that the knowledge or the Gyan should not be wasted in front of the people who don’t value it. That is to say that Gyan should not be imparted in front of the people who come to listen to the discourse not with the aim of imbibing some Gyan but with the sole purpose of defying it or arguing on it or showing disrespect to it. These people are not searching, they are only looking to prove to the world how great they are and much they know, these are people who are ruled by their ego’s.

 A lot of energy is lost in initiating a person on the path of Sadhna by way of...

"For a normal human being with five basic senses, the satisfaction of these five basic senses is a must. When such a human being holds the hand of a guru, then he or she crosses the sansar sagar and gains complete control and mastery over the five senses. The sense of touch (sexual sense) is one of these senses. Yoga is a mastery over the senses, where if you choose to have sex then you will. However, desire does not control you, but you control desire and may want to indulge for generating a specific kind of heat, which is used to activate the higher senses. (The orgasm has to be held back in this case and a yogi would maintain the sexual heat for two to 48 hours). Ancient rishis were householders, at times having several wives. There is no doubt that a sexual orgasm drains a yogi of the vital sukra (life force) and a person who orgasms frequently doesn’t deserve to be called a yogi (unless he chooses to orgasm at will, for a specific purpose). If a ‘dhongi’ is commercialis...

Nature has its way of providing balance in Creation. For every aspect, there exists one that is equal and opposite. Darkness is nothing but the absence of light. Similarly, silence is the absence of sound. It is only duality in nature, the coexistence of the positive and the negative, that lends meaning to the whole of existence. If at any given time, there exists the entire gamut of the positive and the negative, the two will balance each other out completely, the net result being shunya or zero. There would be everything, yet nothing. The only thing that could fit such a description is the formless, the Nirakaar or Para Brahmn. This is the swaroop or essence of Shiva. In the words of Shankaracharya: "N a punyam na paapam na saukhyam na dukham, chidananda rupa Shivoham Shivoham" ^ Neither good nor bad, there is no joy or sorrow, only the Universal Presence. What then do we make of Nataraja, the dancing male form, or the half-man half-woman Ardhanareeswara, or the sadhu...
