[Guest guest]

Dr. S. S. Deshpande, a Siddha Yoga Master from India, is currently

on a U.S. tour to promote Siddha Yoga. Siddha Yoga is the Yoga of

Meditation, that results from a Living Yoga Master awakening the

Latent Spiritual Energy (Kundalini) that resides in each and

everyone of us, eventually leading to self-realization.

Following is a brief description of Siddha Yoga and it's salient

features:

 

What is Siddhayoga?

- Each and everyone of us has a Latent Spiritual Power

(Kundalini Shakti) within oneself

- Siddhayoga is the path of having the Latent Power

(Kundalini Shakti) be awakened by the presence of a living

Spiritual Master who initiates the disciple by blessing

him/her with the awakening of his/her Latent Power.

- It leads to self-realization through amazing divine

experiences that come from having this Latent Power be

awakened.

 

Salient features of Siddhayoga

- Any individual, irrespective of age, religion, sex or race

is eligible for this supreme path.

- When once initiated, the intrinsic latent power of the path

starts the work of purification of the Life-force (Prana

Shakti). By the grace of the spiritual master and through

regular Meditation (Sadhana), the initiated person (Sadhak)

gets amazing spiritual experiences and eventually achieves

self-realization.

 

A No-cost, Simplest and highest path of Yoga

- It is a no-cost incurring path because the person wishing to

be initiated by the spiritual master does not have to pay

anything. It is free of charge.

- It is the simplest because the seeker does not have to do

anything other than sitting down straight, keeping the body

loose and closing ones eyes. He/She has to observe how the

process of breathing in and out goes on automatically. While

sitting in this posture, one has to totally forget about

ones body and mind. The only activity should be focusing on

the automatic breathing process.
