Guest guest Posted October 20, 2003 Report Share Posted October 20, 2003 93 yes, u r right. true upasana is coming natural out of bhakti feeling to Godhead. siddhis r only aabharanas given to us by Devi... then, siddhis do exist as phisical phenomena [so to say, 'coz in truth all manifestation is just a play of Chiti-shakti], i saw Ganapati Svami myself lol. but our focus should be on consciousness, not outer stuff. it's a general mistake of ppl, they think that asana is sitting, pranayama is breathing and yoga is phycho-physiological gymnastics lmao. all yogic n tantric terms are applied to consciousness first, then to body. pancha-bhutas are also not phisical things you should know... God bless you Love is the law, love under will.

If one gets into the wrong track they would be pushed further deeply into the Samsara Sagara.
