Ifb. med at vi er igang med en programrække, er vi nået til Nabhi/Void. Udover den meget perspektiverende artikel, som jo er det planetariske chakra for Nabhi/Void, og dét er blive og være sin egen Guru/Lærer med tråde den finansielle krise i Grækenland.
Chakraet har meget at gøre at se igennem illusionerne, at gå fra en ubevidst tilstand, hvor man tager ukritisk tager tingene til sig og til at man VED hvad/hvem man er og forvalter dette udfra, hvilke vejledninger der etisk og positivt påvirker vores egen og andres udvikling på det personlige og subtile plan.

 Men hvordan skal man skelne mellem den ene og den anden Guru?
Hvordan kan man måle kvaliteten af deres visdomsord, når nu alle “siger det samme”?
Er det ligemeget hvorfra man får sin viden?
Eller?

Sahaja Yoga’s Answers-Definitions

“Self-realisation or Self-knowledge is the destination of human evolution and also of all the religions. This is the last breakthrough a human being has to achieve, for which there is a complete living machinery placed in the human spinal cord and in the brain. This machinery is being established step by step during our evolution.

This living machinery works out through its power manifesting the parasympathetic and both sympathetic nervous systems. Whatever we achieve in evolution is expressed by our conscious mind through the central nervous system.

To connect us to this subtle energy which permeates into every atom and molecule, there is also a Power of Pure Desire which is placed in the sacrum bone of human beings, which is called as Kundalini. “Kundal” means “coils”. It exists in three and a half coils. There is a Divine mathematical coefficient about three and a half coils.

This triangular bone is called “sacrum”, that means that the people in Greece in the ancient times knew about this divine sacred power of Kundalini; that is why they called this bone sacred. This sacrum bone is placed at the base of the spinal cord and it is triangular in shape.

The Kundalini is like a connecting cord as in every piece of electrical machinery, which connects the machinery to the main source of electricity.

In the same way, when this energy of Kundalini is awakened, threads (some of them) rise and ultimately connect the human being to the all-pervading power (Paramachaitanya).

It is a spontaneous happening, it is a living process. The whole evolutionary process has been a living process, and now a stage has come for human beings to have the last state of Spiritual existence through Self-realisation.

Human being can be compared to a seed which is not active spiritually, and has not started its living process of growth in Spirituality, but when it is embedded in the Mother Earth, the Mother Earth has the power, (with the help of water) to sprout the seed.

In the same way the Kundalini can be awakened spontaneously by the power of Sahaja Yoga.

When this Kundalini rises, a new life process starts in the human awareness, resulting in the growth of spirituality. This spiritual life growth is a new state into which a human being starts growing in his innate Divinity. This nourishes and enlightens his physical, mental, emotional and spiritual being.

This living process is very clearly described in Indian scriptures since ancient times. There are 108 Upanishadas in the Sanskrit language which have exposed the knowledge about Kundalini awakening and the spiritual ascent. Also it is indicated in other scriptures of other countries. In the Bible it is called the tree of life and it is quoted that, “I will appear before you like tongues of flames”. When the Kundalini rises, She passes through various centres which look like tongues of flames when enlightened.

The Cool Breeze of the Holy Ghost of Pentecost is this power that you can feel in Sahaja Yoga. In the Gospel of St. Thomas, very clearly describes the Sahaja experience as the ultimate of our religious life. Also it says we must look after our centres. This Kundalini has to ascend and pierce through six subtle centres which are placed in the spinal cord and in the brain. The last breakthrough is the actualisation of the “Baptism” as one feels the cool breeze of the Holy Ghost emitting out of one’s fontanel bone area.”

( first Chapter: Sahaja Yoga  (excerpt)- from an early book based on Shri Mataji’s teachings)

“..People felt the Cool breeze coming out of their heads.”

Definition-Explanation of Baptism in Sahaja Yoga Meditation

“..People felt the Cool breeze coming out of their heads. Can you do that by jumping, or by paying money?! They felt the cool breeze in the hand. It’s written in the Bible, even in the Bible very clearly, that it’s The Cool Breeze, cool breeze is the sign of the Holy Ghost. You start feeling the cool breeze in your hands and you start feeling the cool breeze on your head. This is the actualization.

Of course, people don’t read other books which are very good, like Adi Shankaracharya. People don’t even like the mention of his name who has really and clearly said that it is the cool breeze: the chaitanya (the divine power) is to be felt like cool breeze in the hands. They do not want that you should know the truth. And this is the Truth: that when you get your Realization you have to feel the Cool Breeze in your hands yourself. You have to judge yourself.

I’m not going to tell you, it is you who has to see, it is you who has to feel, and then you have to grow and you have to know all and everything, all the secrets of Divine Science.

You become the master then, you are the guru. You are the Spirit, and you should get it, it’s your own which is given to you. I have nothing to do about it, I’m just a catalyst...

You see, I don’t work much in the cities, I work in the villages because villagers are easier to get realization; the other day we were in a village called Kadus, where six thousand people got realization, it was announced in the (news)paper. So, in the cities these gurus work out because they want money and the purse, you see, it’s there in the cities ..

I work in the villages…where they don’t even have proper bathrooms, you have to go to the rivers to have your bath and.. it was very spartan for comfortable Australians.

And now they know such a lot about Kundalini, about awakening, about enlightenment. It’s all logical after realization, before that it is blind rationality, which doesn’t understand anything.

This Kundalini is there, your own, Sahaja. ‘Saha’ means ‘with’, ‘ja’ means ‘born’; it’s born with you, it’s within you ! It has to only rise with authority, with a person who knows how to do it. One should not feel hurt about it because I’m doing it. You see, I’m a very happily married woman, you know, I don’t need anything.  My husband has permitted me to go about doing this because he knows nobody can do it. I’ll be very happy if you can do it, really I would like to retire . Moreover why should you feel bad if I do it ?! After all there are so many things I can’t do. I can’t drive, I can’t type, I don’t know even how to open your tins, I’m so hopelessly bad.. So what is there to feel bad about it if I know how to raise the Kundalini and when it is your right to know yourself and to get it within yourself so that you achieve your real baptism, your real force, and once you have achieved it, first thing that happens is that you become a different personality. You become something so different.

I’m talking about the unlimited; our rationality is limited, our brains are limited. But many things can be understood. So many people reached the conclusion that it is the Kundalini awakening, is the one which is going to give us Self-Realization. Through their limited brain only, they reached it. They also reached so many conclusions, that like persons like Jung, the disciple of Mr. Freud ‘the great’..

( *Jung) was such a sensible man that he said you must get your realization, you must get your self-realization, and he prepared the ground for Sahaja Yoga, for he said, when you get your self-realization, you will become collectively conscious. He talked about it.”

(Excerpt from Shri Mataji’s lecture in Australia, Sydney 1981 on March 22nd, in Maccabean Hall)

” So many people who are real scholars, who are seekers, have reached the conclusion that it is the awakening of the Kundalini only that gives you your second birth, your Baptism, but they do not know how it will work out because it is a living force… You cannot pull the primule out of the seed, you cannot force a flower to become a fruit, you cannot pay money for it, you cannot rationalise it or mock at it or laugh at it or if you doubt it whatever it is. It will work out when it has to work out. In the same way today we are at the junction of a great happening, en-masse realisation has to take place, evolution has to take place, otherwise this creation will have no meaning, you will have no meaning either. So don’t worry for cheap sensations and sensational stuff that is around, you have to ask for the Real and that real you will only ask for if you have self esteem, that you understand that you have to get the real and not something that you can purchase on the market!!..

This is what you have to ask.. this Kundalini rises and gives you your baptism in the fontanelle area. The time is so short that I can’t describe the whole lot to you… When there is Kundalini crosses over the Agnya chakra which is the centre of Christ, you become thoughtlessly aware – you become – again I say it’s the becoming; then it crosses the fontanelle bone. This is the real baptism one can say – you can feel the cool breeze on the hands from the all pervading power around; but that’s not the end of it – it’s just the beginning. It’s just that your seed has been germinated but as Christ has said – some seeds got lost because they’re places on the rock. So do not have a heart of a rock – just keep it open, keep it open. You’ll feel very relaxed also – extremely relaxed. You have to ask for it. You have to say, ‘Mother give us our self realisation please,’ you have to knock on the door. If you if you are arrogant about it – it’s rather difficult for me. You are asking for such a great thing which you have been seeking for ages – for many lives.
In humility you have to ask – if it works it’s your own gain – if it doesn’t – we’ll work it out later. Not to condemn yourself for that, you’ve no way to feel guilty please don’t feel guilty about any thing – whatever you’ve done forget it – don’t feel guilty – that’s one of the diseases people have, when I say something, they start feeling guilty about it. Not to feel guilty about because what guilt can have with what wrong can you do – in the presence of God who is the ocean of love. He is ocean of love. Kundalini is universally there, exists in everyone – She is your Mother – She is you individual Mother. Mother – that is the desire. The pure desire which is waiting for a chance to give you your second birth.

And when She rises, She touches the seat of Spirit on the fontanel bone area and the

Spirit – which enjoys itself by itself – shines in your awareness and you get collectively conscious – please put your hands out.

.. Please don’t doubt me for the time being because I’m not selling anything – I’ve spent my own money for Sahaja. I have come here to give you a gift which you desire. ..you have to become. Just feel it … if you are feeling the Cool Breeze, it’s a Subtle thing. It’s very Subtle – so be careful.”

 What is Kundalini  & What is Not Kundalini? Response with Essential Definitions & Clarifications

“We can change the whole world and you start understanding the problems of the world and you can get rid of them with your Kundalini awakening. Such a great thing is this Kundalini, I tell you, that it makes human beings something Superlative. It’s all described as sayings and this and that, but a Sahaja Yogi has a greater power and the greater power is that he can make others Sahaja Yogi[s].”

Shri Mataji – the founder of Sahaja Yoga Meditation

What is Self Realization? Answers & Connections to Pure Energy, Desire and Knowledge

“First of all, I think this is the most important thing to understand about your own Kundalini, as Self Realization is Self Knowledge and the one who gives you Self Knowledge is this, your own Kundalini because when She rises, She points it out what are the problems on your chakras. Now, we say that it is pure desire, but we do not know what purity means. It means your chaste desire.

It means it has no lust, greed, anything in it. That power is your own Mother and is settled in your triangular bone. She’s your own mother. She knows everything about you. It’s like a tape recorder. She knows everything about you and She is absolutely the Knowledge because She’s so pure. And whatever chakras She touches, She also knows what’s wrong with that chakra beforehand. So She’s quite prepared and She adjusts Herself fully so that you do not get a problem by Her awakening. If any chakra is constricted, She waits and goes on slowly opening that chakra.

Now, this Kundalini is the Primordial Power which is reflected within you and within you, in a human being, it is like many strands of energy. So it’s like a rope and these energies are all twisted together to form this Kundalini.

In a human being these strands are three into seven – that is twenty-one – raised to power hundred and eight. But when your Kundalini rises, one or two strands out of this come up and pierce the fontanel bone area. Only one or two because it has to pass through the inner most nadi, known as Brahma Nadi. It’s all a spiral throughout because Kundalini is a spiral and these nadis are also are like a spiral like this. So the innermost nadi is the Brahma Nadi. The outermost nadi is the right side and the second innermost is the Ida Nadi.

So, through the Brahma Nadi, She starts sending those threads. By that, they relax the centre. By the relaxation of the centre, the sympathetic nervous system also starts relaxing and when it goes to the Agnya Chakra, then your eyes start relaxing, your pupils start dilating and your eyes can become like Mine, very black, absolutely relaxed.

So, you can easily see in a person how far is the Kundalini. If it has pierced the Agnya, then the eyes will be completely dilated and will be shining and then She (Kundalini) enters into the Sahasrara.

Now, it is absolutely pure light of knowledge, love, compassion and attention. All these three things are in that energy. We know of many energies like electrical energy. We know of light energy. We know of other energies. But these energies cannot think. They cannot adjust. They cannot work on their own. They are to be handled by us.

But this energy (Kundalini), itself is the Living Energy and knows how to handle itself. It thinks.

If you see a seed being sprouted, you’ll find at the tip of the seed there’s a small little cell which knows how to go around the soft places and then how to encircle the stones and then how to find its way to the source.

That cell has got, I would say, a little Kundalini in it, the way it moves.

But within you .. a tremendous force of Kundalini exists.

So, you have a Storehouse of Compassion, which can be Enlightened by the Spirit. You have the Storehouse of Love, Compassion and Knowledge and Ocean of Forgiveness. When people get Realization, they do not understand that they have to now grow. And why they don’t grow? Because they do not ask for these energies. A person who is a realized soul, if he says, ‘I have to have more compassion. My compassion is not all right. My concern about others is not all right. My generosity is not all right. I’m exploiting others. I’m exploiting their love,’ then this energy starts moving, giving you that greater dimension of love and compassion. But if you do not want to be growing in your awareness, then She (Kundalini) says, ‘All right. He is a half-baked Sahaja Yogi. Let it be.’ She doesn’t supply that energy which is stored within you, I told you, (it is) three into seven, that is twenty-one, raised to power hundred and eight. So what a storehouse you have within yourself!

But because of your mundane style of thinking and asking – in the beginning, when I started Sahaja Yoga people used to ask for, say, jobs or for ‘my mother is sick’ or a father is sick or they would ask for money or something like that. So these wants are not pure wants. As we know in economics, they are not pure wants. They’re impure wants because they are never satiable in general.”

Higher Personality – Deeper Personality – Wider Personality

“So this Kundalini that is your Mother, She is there to supply you, nourish you, to look after you, to make you grow by giving you a higher personality – higher personality, wider personality, deeper personality. Now, we think if somebody is well read, then we think he is a higher personality. Sometimes a person who is rich, we think he is a higher personality. Sometimes we think a person who is very hard working is a higher personality. Sometimes we think a person who is, I mean, some sort of a confusion about religion or something, we think he is a higher personality. Our ideas about higher personality itself are wrong. People are higher because they are spiritually evolved.

Otherwise, they are not.”

Vi har mange der spørger efter Kundalini og har mange spørgsmål om denne iboende feminine helbredende kraft

Under min søgen efter mere information om Kundalini og meditation, er jeg stødt på spørgsmål og svar og sætter her ind en tekst, hvor spørgsmålet lød som overskriften:

Question: What are the ways and means to raise the Kundalini and what are the symptoms?

Shri Mataji: The first one is I’ll do it now, so you will see it’s nothing so special, but the second one is that when you get your Realization first thing that happens to you that you become thoughtlessly aware to begin with when it crosses over Agnya chakra and when it pierces through this one you can feel the cool breeze coming out of your head, you can feel the cool breeze around yourself.

Now all these fingers are shown there you can see. They denote your centers. Only you have to understand the decoding of it.

Now supposing you take ten children who are realized souls and you tie their eyes and ask them: “What’s the matter with this gentleman?” Immediately, they will all raise the same finger, supposing they raise this finger and you ask that person: “Are you suffering from bronchitis?” They’ll say: “Yes, how do you know?” So, all these centers are decoded and once they are decoded if you know the decoding, if you know how to decode it, then it’s so easy, very easy you find out.

So this is the only thing we have to know about the decoding part of it, what is the center we are catching, what is the center others are catching? Now if you know how to correct the centers, you are all right. And the others are all right. It’s very simple it’s either left side or right side. Only two problems, basically.

Der er mange måder, man kan give bandhan på.
Her følger 10 metoder, og en video hvor Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi viser hvordan man mest korrekt skal give bandhan:

1. Bandhan we use for meditation, before and after. Watch the following movie where Shri Mataji is explaining how to do it (Excerpt from “To be at Nirvikalpa” talk before Sahasrara Puja 1985):

Bandhan (noun) means a bond, literally

Here are different types of bandhan we use in Sahaja Yoga.

2. Bandhan we use when we get out of the house for protecting ourselves from sometime not so pure energy that is outside. If we are a parent, we can give bandhan to our little kids as well.

3. Bandhan we give to somebody during workshop. When we work on somebody, we give ourselves a bandhan and so we do for the other person to protect him or her and also ourselves from “catching” from one another.

4. Bandhan we give on the chakras of somebody else. This is a simple circle we draw with the right hand in a clockwise direction (if we work from front) or counter clockwise (if we work from behind)

4. Bandhan we give to our chakras when we perform workshop on ourselves

5. Bandhan when we check our vibrations, i.e. the status of our subtle system. We put our attention in the left hand (that sits still). We can write our name using the right index finger on the left hand. We draw, using the right hand, few circles around the center of the left palm. Then we keep our hands upward and check the sensation in the palms and fingers. Cool is good, hot is less good

6. Bandhan that we give when we want to know about a certain item. This can be a person, place, book, movie etc. Similar to the previous one, we just write the name of the item. Cool is good, hot not so much.

7. Bandhan when we want to decide about something. Similar to the previous one, we just write the question

8. Bandhan for getting help in a specific situation.

9. Bandhan that we do for somebody’s problems

10. Bandhan when we ask for a certain thing to happen.

Of course, when we want to use the bandhan to decide about some course of action or when we inquire about a person or place, we first have to be in good shape ourselves. That is, when we ask about the status of our subtle system, we should feel cool in all the fingers and above Sahasrara.

We can test ourselves using the Envelope Test: take 5 envelopes, put a photo of Shri Mataji in one. Close the envelopes and try to find in which one is the photo. Repeat the test 5 times. If you find the photo in 100% of the times, then you are good to check vibrations about anything else.

Her har vi samlet en lang række videoer, der giver en god introduktion til Sahaja Yoga Meditation

Jeg har netop fundet dette link, som viser Kundalini ifb. Commonwealth Games, som foregår i Indien

Kundalini is the power of pure desire within us, a motherly and soothing spiritual energy which lies dormant at the base of the spine in the sacrum bone (the ancient civilizations knew that in this bone resides a sacred energy).

Self-Realisation is the awakening of the Kundalini through the central channel, piercing through the six chakras above the sacrum bone and emerging at the top of the head (fontanelle bone area) as a gentle “fountain” of coolness. The word fontanelle itself means “little fountain” which shows again the ancient knowledge about this phenomenon of Self-Realisation.

Many of the great developmentalists have referred to the process of self-realisation. Abraham Maslow for example refers to the Meta-Motivation we have as we seek to evolve to the state of Self-Actualisation, in his Pyramidal Hierarchy of Needs diagram. Carl Jung talks about the intrinsic God-consciousness seated within us.

Self-Realisation has always been the ultimate goal of all religions and spiritual traditions of the world, but was extremely difficult to attain in the past. It can now be effortlessly achieved through Sahaja Yoga, which is Shri Mataji’s invaluable gift to humanity.

In Shri Mataji’s own words, “Self-realisation is the first encounter with reality”. “We have the Mother within ourselves, in our hearts, and if She is awakened, She is going to look after us. She is going to give all the protection that is needed. And there is nothing to be frightened of.”

“Kundalini cures you, she improves you, she bestows all the blissful things upon you. She takes you away from the worries of the grosser level”, says Shri Mataji.

The manifestation of the Kundalini energy is called vibrations , which is an approximate translation of the Sanskrit term Chaitanya. In Shri Mataji’s words, “Chaitanya (vibrations) is the integrated force of your physiological, mental, emotional and spiritual self.”
