Avatar part 2? In the real world

Sahaja Yoga Atlanta

Author

The Atlanta collective is a bunch of seekers some of who found the truth in Sahaja meditation after many years and some who were fortunate to learn Sahaja meditation in school/college. There are folks from diverse backgrounds, nationalities and ages that form a part of this collective. The collective has people who tried Reiki, Mantra based meditation, Buddhist meditation, Catholic based worship and other forms before coming to Sahaja meditation. Now, the collective’s objective is to spread this love of the divine to other seekers so they too can realize the immense benefits of Sahaja meditation. Sahaja Atlanta

Imagine yourself starting to live in a world that is there but not yet there. Where everything works perfectly and there is a “network” established that is self-sufficient, beautiful and immaculate. It’s like the movie Avatar. You go into a world where everything works in a perfect balance and you are supported with everything that is around you – the plants, trees, animals, humans and whatnot. And where healing takes place through divine love and the power of the network.

If I were you, reading this article, then I would certainly wonder can such a world exist where we all cross boundaries between ourselves and Mother Nature to live in the true realm of the Divine. And, especially for a seeker of absolute truth and an ideal world, this would be a fascinating version of the truth.
Let’s now take it a step beyond the movie. If this new world had to co-exist with the real world and if the network could actually grow and help every member and if we could grow into a collective body that is there for everybody in every sense and constantly in support each other through divine vibrations that link us on this Earth with each other and mother nature – wow, it sounds amazing. But what is this going to be part two of the Avatar movie?

Again, if I were you reading this article I would start thinking, “Is this another sales pitch for another yoga program costing a lot of money?” Just so you feel comfortable, no, definitely not, there is no money involved. Speak with Sahaja Yogis and they will tell you how they are able to feel the Divine and the network they have created in this real world that is connected to the Divine. Ask them how they do it? The answer is: through vibrations.

Now what exactly are these vibrations? Well, it is such a beautiful feeling that makes you feel very light and relaxed with a cool breeze flowing over your hands and body when you are completely established with the Divine. Now where do these vibrations come from? The answer is really from within us and outside as well through the love of Mother Nature or the “network,” as we saw in the Avatar. Sahaja Yogis use vibrations in their lives every day to feel connected with each other, with this beautiful network of the Divine or Mother Nature, as you may call it. Believe it or not, they also use it to heal others and themselves. There is enough medical research done to establish the fact that Sahaja Yoga is a very practical way of curing many diseases. In a research paper written by Dr. Ramesh Manocha, he speaks of a study of Sahaja Yogis using a Quantitative Electro Encephalo Gram, which demonstrated widespread changes in brainwaves, with prominent theta wave activity at the precise moment that the Sahaja Yogis reported a state of complete mental silence and oneness.

Now how does anyone try to get into this beautiful network?
The answer lies in meditation, which is actually getting into a state of thoughtless awareness. Now hang on – what does that mean? It means you get into a state where you feel completely one with yourself and the Divine and are not affected by thoughts, which in reality come through your ego or past conditionings. The whole process of getting aware of this vibratory energy is called Self Realization. It means the awakening of a dormant motherly energy within us that, with a great amount of respect and pure desire, works within us and connects us to the network. That is when we achieve oneness with the Divine through vibratory awareness. The energy passes through our subtle energy centres in the process of connecting us.

It turns out that all of our problems, be they physical or mental illness or an emotional disorder, are nothing but the result of a prolonged imbalance in one or more of the subtle energy centres (chakras) or the left and right energy channels. If we can feel the state of our subtle system and detect such imbalances early on when they are initially triggered and if we can cure the imbalance at the energetic level, we can prevent many problems in our being long before their onset.

We are all made like a divine computer with everything built-in within us that is needed to exercise wisdom and discretion about what is good for us and what is not. After we experience Self Realization, this inner potential for wisdom, discretion and subtle understanding is awakened within us and becomes a part of our life. Just as the senses of sight, smell and taste are spontaneous and natural to us and we use them without thinking, a new sense also becomes an integral part of our being. Chaitanya (vibration) is the integrated force of your physiological, mental, emotional and religious selves.

This all becomes possible after Self Realization. As the motherly energy awakens within us and pierces through the seventh energy centre, we start feeling vibrations through our central nervous system. At the outset, we feel vibrations most prominently on the palms of our hands. The palms are like a barometer of the state of the energy centres within us and within others. This is the instrument by which we can develop our wisdom and discretion if we listen to it carefully.

Each part of the palm corresponds to a particular energy centre along our spine. The sensation of a gentle cool breeze on a finger that corresponds to a centre, indicates a balanced and clear state of that centre. On the other hand, a sensation of tingling, heat or burning indicates a subtle imbalance on that centre which can be removed though regular meditation and simple Sahaja meditation techniques. If you feel certain sensations on your palm after Realization, it is easy to interpret them. Simply use our subtle system guide and learn what brings the chakras into balance and what harms them.

There are many other medical professionals apart from Dr. Ramesh Manocha. In England, Russia, India, Australia and North America doctors and scientists have studied the health benefits of Sahaja meditation and its positive role in alleviating a host of illnesses. Some of results have been widely published and are available at www.freemeditation.ca.

So don’t wait any more and get connected with Sahaja Yoga today and become part of this beautiful network.

Your avatar is waiting for you!

8 things I have learnt through meditation

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010

Karthik Yoganathan

Author

Karthik is a Software Engineer working in Infosys, based in Chennai, India. Has been practicing Sahaja Yoga and enjoying the many blessings of the divine connection since 2002. Loves writing stories, meditation and playing flute.

1. Meditation is not about doing:

It is easy to be in meditation, but it is extremely difficult to do meditation.
Imagine how difficult it would have been if we had to do breathing. Like all natural processes, meditation is spontaneous and effortless.

2. Meditation is a state:

It has a very great advantage of being a fact and not a fiction
- Socrates

Meditation is the state of silence where we can introspect without either guilt or pride. In the state of deep meditation, we can correct even the fundamental flaws of our personality effortlessly.
Meditation is a state that extends much beyond mere relaxation. It is the experience of a state called as ‘thoughtless awareness’ where we are not hindered by the thoughts arising from the worries of the past or the anxieties about the future and being in the present where we experience our true nature.

3. Meditation is not an exercise:

Breathing exercises or stretching exercises do not constitute meditation. They are merely techniques that can be used to enter into meditation.

4 . Not all who talk, know:

Stop thinking and talking about it and there is nothing you will not be able to know
- Zen Koan

People who talk about meditation sometimes have never actually experienced it. And even if someone has experienced it, it is of little value to us unless we can experience it ourselves too.

4. Meditation has no prerequisites:

It is not mandatory to have a silent room or peaceful settings to meditate. If there is noise outside, meditation will make you silent inside. It is possible to meditate even in a crowded train or during a crisis.

5.  Meditation is not giving up on life:

We don’t need to renounce our day-to-day activities in order to meditate. Instead, meditation helps us to do things better. Proper meditation does not make us passive; instead it makes us dynamic and energetic.

6. Meditation is not for sale:

Look and you will find it – what is unsought will go undetected
- Sophocles

You cannot buy meditation. You cannot sell meditation. You cannot do meditation. You cannot force meditation. Like all natural processes – like flowers blooming and seeds sprouting – meditation is spontaneous, effortless and always born out of the individual’s desire.
While it is easy to believe that more you pay, better the product/service you get, it is often untrue with meditation. People who spend millions usually learn nothing of value. Nowadays, a lot of ‘commercial yoga’ techniques are available in the market that promises extraordinary things but usually is observed to deliver nothing of much significance.

6. Knowing is not the same as being:

The story is about you
- Horace
Listening to lectures on meditation is not the same as the actual meditation itself. No amount of books can teach you swim unless you jump into the water.
A second’s experience is worth more than years of study. Direct perception is worth more than hours of listening to second-hand knowledge. To be is much greater than to know.

7. Abnormal behavior is not meditation:

It is no proof of a man’s understanding to be able to confirm whatever he pleases; but to be able to discern that which is true is true and that which is false is false, that is a mark of character and intelligence.
- Emanuel Swedenborg

Mind going blank, losing consciousness, doing weird things are things that are neither spiritual nor meditative. Many believe that anything that is paranormal is spiritual. However, from my experience, I have come to understand that true meditation is not something abnormal. It is a profound state of inner silence that helps us understand ourselves better. It is natural and uncomplicated. And has no price tag associated with it.

8. Meditation, a fashion statement?

The supreme happiness in life is the conviction that we are loved
- Victor Hugo
The ability to love oneself and other human beings equally is the most beautiful and attractive quality a human being can have. Meditation has the capacity to trigger this beautiful quality and thus is an eternal fashion statement. Meditation can never go out of fashion as long as humans desire for love and compassion.

Vibrations Of Love 2009 (Oslo, Stockholm, Malmø og København)

Thursday, November 19th, 2009


“Vibrations of Love”, var koncerter med smuk kuchipudi dans og dejlig, livsgivende indisk musik i storcentre i dagstimerne, og om aftenen præsenterede vi hvordan musik og meditation hænger sammen. Vi kom rundt omkring i byen, og havde bl.a. disse tre måder at lave arrangementer på:

  • I dagtimerne gav vi koncerter på biblioteker, væresteder, i shopping centre etc., og optrådte med den smukke Kuchipudi-dans.
    Vi gav også introduktion af Sahaja Yoga Meditation og forklarede om det subtile system og markedsførte vores aftenkoncerter, hvor vi kom mere ind på forbindelsen mellem musik og meditation.



  • Om aftenen ville vi, i beboerhuse, cafeér, koncertsale og kulturhuse, gøre tilsvarende, men forklarede mere uddybende om sammenhængen mellem musik og meditation, hvordan tonerne i musikken påvirker vores energicentre (“det subtile system”) og programmet her varede ca. 1½ time.
  • Skole/børneprogrammer:
    Da vi har gode erfaringer fra Stockholm, Sverige, hvor Vibrations of Love også turnerede, vil vi til fremtidige arrangementer, gerne optræde for børn i alle aldre. Vi vil meget gerne præsentere børnene for LIVE klassisk, indisk musik. Instrumenterne som bliver brugt i musikken (fx. tabla-trommerne) har hver en historie om deres lyde, som kunne være spændende for  børnene at høre om. De forskellige slag på tabla-trommerne svarer til skridtene hos forskellige dyr som rådyr, elefant etc.), og selvfølgelig får børrnene også mulighed for at selv at spille de “eksotiske” instrumenter, og selvfølgelig også tilbyde Kuchipudi-dans, som helt sikkert vil fascinere børnene!- Så der er rig mulighed for at børnene selv kan lære et par nye trin; alt i ialt, et godt, underholdende indslag til musik-timen!

Musikken, som vi optrådte med på Vibrations of Love var traditionel indisk musik, som stammer fra en af de ældste musiktraditioner i verden, og har en positiv indflydelse på vores psykiske og fysiske tilstand. I Indien siger man, at musikkens toner blev hørt og opdaget af helgener, som opdagede
forbindelsen mellem lyde, naturen og mennesket, og at disse harmonier og lyde korresponderer til energi-centre (“det subtile system”) indeni os selv. Heavenly River, som vi fik besøg af under Vibrations of Love, blev dannet i 1998 og kommer fra Moskva,
  Rusland. Gruppen består af 5 professionelle musikere på tabla, harmonium, klarinet, percussion og vokal. Heavenly River er funderet i den indiske musik, med indflydelse fra slavisk folkemusik, og med plads til improvisationer og jazz harmonier. Heavenly River har før udgivet musik, og har spillet på musikfestivaler rundt i Europa og Rusland.

Her er et uddrag af deres musik:

og her er uddrag af Vibrations of Love:

Kuchipudi er en klassisk, indisk dans, som er et komplet dansedrama udført af en enkelt solodanser. Brugen af
 graciøse bevægelser, i et, til tider, hurtigt tempo, er kendetegnende for denne dansestil. Kuchipudi er minutiøst koregraferet med mange smukke, yndefulde positioner.

Udover vil vi også introducere Sahaja Yoga Meditation. Sahaja Yoga Meditation er en naturlig, uanstrengt meditationsform, hvor både krop og sind er i ro. Sahaja betyder “født med” og “yoga” betyder forbindelse eller forening/union. 
Vi er alle født med denne “forbindelse”, og man kan hurtigt, ved simple og lette øvelser, lære altid at være “online”. Denne metode til at være Selv-bevidst og viljen til at udvikle sig spirituelt, er tilgængelig for alle, uanset alder, religion, trosretning og kulturel overbevisning.
Da grundprincippet i Sahaja Yoga, er at man allerede har kimen til Selv-realisation indeni i selv, er der FRI entré ved koncerterne og programmerne!
