A link giving basic info on Sahaj Yoga. Btw Sahaj means easy/simple/natural/spontaneous. It happens with HIS GRACE and is easier hence the name Sahaj. However, we have to follow certain basic rules specially as Shaktipaat Diksha in Sahaj Yoga is awakening of the Kundalini with HIS GRACE unlike in Bhakti Yoga where HIS GRACE is planted as a seed of HIS HOLY NAME.spiritualityfoundation.org IP: Logged |

On Shaktipaat Diksha -www.thekundaliniyoga.o rg Here i would like to specifically add that certain rules which they tell us, have to be diligently followed otherwise the tremendous energy backfires and is likely to go off hand. IP: Logged |

Interesting thread quote: Originally posted by Love&Light: Hi juni. Thank You. I am mostly a lurker there. Hardly though. I had in mind for a long time to post the gist of spirituality connected practices and paths which are the same in all religions but unfortunately most of the populace has forgotten them and are fighting over their religious beliefs. So i plan to post helpful inputs and insights for spiritual practices from any religion, sect, group with a hope that those who are interested may find the inspiration to WALK the path.

Interesting thread This is the kind of thread I miss seeing folks post. I want to see more philosophical discourse and studies and all instead of the almost everyone is damned threads and desire for the end of the world horror threads and all that nasty business. Thank you! IP: Logged |

I found these broad stages of development VERY HELPFUL in understanding a lot of things happening in my life on the path of spiritual development. I am sure many of you will too. Specially the third one where a chasm has to be faced.www.beezone.com IP: Logged |

Here's a page on GOD and Heart connection -www.beezone.com An excerpt from this page - 'Our study in 1971 of Swami Rama, a yogi from Rishikesh, India, produced a few self-regulation events in our lab which represented, he said, energy control (see Beyond Biofeedback, Delta Books, Dell Publications, 1978, for details). For instance: Before he put his heart into a state of atrial flutter he turned to Alyce, who was on her way to the lab's control room, and said, "When my heart 'stops," call over the intercom and say, 'That's all.'" I immediately asked why he wanted that, and he said, "Since I am not prepared in the usual way for this experiment, I do not want to do it too long . . do not want to take a chance on damaging my subtle heart."

I am happy to see you as well Juni. We resonate on this thing. Nice link that one.Thank You Lexi. I hope you are doing well. I pray for you at times. I wonder whether anyone is reading this at all though. Some of the writings in these links are so insightful. I think I ought to start quoting it here. What do you say? IP: Logged |

Yet to quoting. At least snippets to give the gist.

In the words of Rebbe Nachmanof Breslov: "Faith is the foundation of all spiritual quest...the root of all teaching and practice...the channel for every benefit and blessing."With these stepping stones, we create a path that represents our faith. ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.

sufi poetry and symbolism.SUFI POETRY Readers of Sûfî poetry for the first time are liable to be amazed, perhaps even repelled, by the extravagant language, by the familiarity with the Deity, by the apparent disregard of all human and Divine laws. But on further examination the wonder of the Sûfîs' love for their Beloved shines out with a clear intensity, a beautiful luminous brightness. http://www.sacred-texts.com/isl/srg/srg03.htm#page_12 ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.

Apparently not many are taking interest in the links provided here so I thought I would give an excerpt here and there to throw some light on its contents.Following is an excerpt from this link http://www.beezone.com/kirpalsingh/the_souls_journey.html]www.beezone.com For this purpose it is most appropriate to subdivide these regions into three main divisions of the cosmic plan of creation: 1.— the purely spiritual region; 2.— the spirituo-material region; 3.— the materio-spiritual region; The materio-spiritual one is the main realm which is the closest to the physical universe. The central source of power of this materio-spiritual region has become known as 'Sahasdal Kanwal' (thousand-petalled lotus) in the 0riental terminology, and it is this source of power from which the whole physical universe gets its driving energies. This third main realm has been termed 'astral level' in the western occult literature and in the theosophical scriptures. In this astral realm the scale of time is smaller than in the second spirituo-material realm, but much bigger than in the physical universe. At the end of a shorter cosmic cycle of life, which lasts, however, many million years, it will vanish into the realm of the 'Universal Mind'. This is where the heavens of most of the religions of the world are located. Here one can find the heaven of Christianity, the Paradise of Islam and the Swargas of Hinduism. These 'heavens' are really beautiful, but they are also subject to the final dissolution. The beginning of the mystical path of love, the way back to our True Home, however takes place at the lowest level of creation, which comprises our entire physical universe: all the planets, suns, stars, solar systems, galaxies and cosmic systems — whether known to current astronomy or not. Matter in our physical universe is in its rawest, densest form with a tiny addition of spiritual substance which is just enough to enliven matter and to preserve life.

IQ has an excellent post on Soul, OverSoul, Higher Self to share.snippet quote: Whereas our Higher Self is the individualized essence of our Creator, and remains in a state of perfection, our soul and oversoul represent our cumulative life experiences. At the end of a human lifetime here on Earth, the memory of our experiences are integrated into our soul and oversoul. And prior to entering into a new life experience here on Earth, it is our soul and oversoul that, in concert with our Higher Self, and our guides and mentors, create a Life Plan for the upcoming life experience.

I plan on starting a thread on the Essene Gospel of Peace as a counter to what is known of the Biblical Christ and his Teachings. The poetic style of the translator brings to vivid reality the exquisitely beautiful words of Jesus and the Elders of the Essene Brotherhood. Liberated from the secret archives of the Vatican, these sacred scrolls are testaments to the eternal and living truth of the Way.

I thought this thread would be incomplete without throwing some light on Jnyana Yoga. So here are some links.www.enlightenedbeings.com Some excerpts Sri Ramana Maharshi was a great Indian sage who lived from 1879 to 1950. He had a powerful transformation when he was 16 years old where he surrendered to the experience of death, and found "that" which never dies. A few months later he left his home and village to live in one of the most holiest places in India called Mt. Arunachala. For 17 years he lived in several different caves in this sacred mountain which has a massive 1200 year old temple at its feet. Ramana Maharshi deepened his experience of Self-Realization during this time and soon many visitors seeking the Truth about enlightenment were guided to him. Just by experiencing his calming loving presence which was very natural and simple, their lives would be transformed forever. Ramana had a deep connection with nature. He was often visited by a cow who would lick his feet and other wild animals would walk right up to him. He spent his life guiding devotees and seekers in their path of spiritual Knowledge and Self-Realization. He answered questions for hours every day, and taught Self-inquiry - to ask oneself, “Who am I?” - as the path to Enlightenment, or Self-Realization. He taught seekers that the God-Source, Spirit, Divine Consciousness, Spiritual Essence (whatever you call it) is what you really are. Ramana Maharshi found that this spiritual existence is the only path that is truly satisfying. Nothing is more fulfilling than to unveil and discover ones real "Self". This re-discovering of the true you is an experience of spiritual enlightenment. It is truly the most freeing and empowering experience we can explore. There is a spiritual path for the planet and one for each individual. Each path is perfect, divine and completely unique to each person. What truly helps us discover our own spiritual path today is overcoming our personal blocks, fear, resistance and negativity. By releasing attachment to ones Ego, we empower ourselves to overcome these barriers of such great magnitude. All suffering comes from over-identification with your Ego. When you have become over-identified, you get confused, thinking you are your name, your thoughts, feelings, your body, or anything associated with the material world. You forget that you are this divine infinite soul that will never die. We are temporarily a part of the physical world, yet in actuality we always exist on a realm that is beyond the physical. When we can deeply relax inside, we can see that this spiritually enlightened aspect of our soul is the natural state of our very being itself. We are no longer distracted by our mind and it's illusions. We can let go of trying to become spiritual or enlightened, and simply relax into this pure spiritually enlightened soul we already are! It is in this relaxation we re-discover the Infinite Source naturally contained within our innermost being. When we can surrender and stop the worried chattering mind, we can truly relax into our Being. A space of deep inner peace is not far away at all! It just takes trust, being the witnesser and being open to it all. When you can finally relax, there is a GREAT knowing that everything is totally O.K. exactly the way it is. This spiritual knowing goes beyond understanding everything is just O.K., it realizes how grand, divine perfect the Universe truly is! IP: Logged | |
