VISIONS IN SADHNA---3

[Guest guest]

Contd from prev-post<br>2- visions showing future

- These visions are like his Kripa to tell us

forehand that we should be ready for some bad times.

Though some people, without any sadhna also see visions

about future, but these are more common with sadhkas.

One should not feel distressed to see the future, as

God wishes to warn us and to be ready for

this.<br><br>3- Visions guiding in sadhna - Once we have made

little advancement on the path of sadhna, our burden of

Yoga is taken over by HIM (As shri Krishna has

beautifully explained in Gita). These type of visions are

seen by those sadhaka who do not have a guru, or their

guru is not available to help him. These visions give

clear guidance on sadhna. I myself had this great

vision when I was experimenting with Om sadhna and was

chanting OM in a wrong way. I saw Swami Parmananda taking

OM classes and rebuking a child for not chanting OM

in a proper way. I got the msg and changed my way of

chanting…and the speed of progress was doubled.<br><br>4-

Visions showing the mysteries of the Universe - These

type of visions are seen by advanced sadhka (or by a

novice if God so wishes). In this one may see sky,

stars, kundilini or his body functions, or may see

different energies working in the universe. The vision had

by Great Yogananda falls under this category. So by

careful analysis of the vision, we may categorise it and

find out whether it indicates Chittashudhhi, warning,

guiding or showing great mystery and use its results in

our sadhna.<br>STRANGE LIGHTS : Seeing strange lights

by closed eyes is a very common phenomenon. these

are seen even by new sadhkas. There are different

explanations for seeing the lights, but we will not go intodry

intellecualism. These lights may be seen as a dot against the

black back ground as seen by closed eyes.or we may see

a fog/mist of colors, or the light may be seen as a

thunderbolt. How we see the lights is not important. The

importance of light lies in its color. We should carefully

note the color of the light seen which may give us an

insight into its significance. I am giving below some

examples gathered from new and advanced sadhkas :-<br>

<br>(The colors may be common colors, but they tend to

change in such wavelengths as are never seen in

practical. Seeing a color in strange wavelengths denotes

higher stage of concentration)<br><br>1- A less black

dot seen in the darker background :- It denotes the

sadhna is on right path. The dot represents wavering but

settleing Manas as seen by the Agya Chakra.<br><br>2- A

bright dot (color milky white) : denotes progress in

sadhna. If possible we should concentrate on this<br>dot,

though in the beginning it sparks and fades in seconds,

but becomes stable with progress in

concentration.<br><br>3- self-illuminating cob-webs or strange shapes :

These may denote visualising one of our chakra, or a

complex system of our Nadis. Instead of wasting our time

as to what it is, we should continue with our sadhna

and He will reveal slowly what He wishes to

show.<br><br>4- Color Pink : denotes higher stage of purified

chitta<br><br>5- Color Green : denotes peace attained by

Manas<br><br>6- color Yellow or golden : denotes Ishwar Kripa

coming to us<br><br>7- Color Orange : denotes lust and

Kama under control<br><br>8- Color Violet : denotes

higher stage of sadhna. It signifies activation of Agya

Chakra.<br><br>9- Color Blue : denotes feeling of Vairagya becoming

stronger.<br><br>contd..............................
