I would like to quote what I had read from one book written by Swami Chidananda

 

quote

 

" Sri Ramakrishna had this actual experience: he said that once these powers

were brought to him in a basket. This was an inner mystical

experience in which he was offered them, in which he was pressed to take

them............

.....................

.........he found them to be occult powers,.... he immediately spat upon them

and

began to shout, " take them away! take them away at once!" ...........

....................

........Later on he told his disciples that the power of whole universe was

offered to him .....

but my mother came to my rescue and I was able to shove it aside completely.

 

So, the teaching of the Masters, form the very begining, is " If you want God,

shun all ruthlessly all powers, all occult phenomena and .........

..........If you want God, do not want anything else but God, for if you have

God,

you have everything........."

If above belief is true which I think so, please do not encourage occult in the

email.

Any comment is appreciated.

 

all the best, all the bliss, all from one, all in one, all from ???????

one for one, one for many, one from one, one from many, one from ??????

Sat Nam Seow Zhiming:

 

Please do not confuse a quotation from YB describing the benefits of

a particular meditation as the encouragement of the practice of

occult powers. Indeed, to practice yoga only for the sake of

attaining such powers is certainly discouraged by the many advanced

practitioners who have gone before. But, by the same token, they

advise us that such powers are latent within all of us, and that the

practices of yoga are one of the ways in which such powers may become

active. In fact, the desire to attain such abilities is one of the

many reasons that people become interested in practicing

spirituality, but rarely does the desire survive the time and effort

that the practices require, or the experiences that result.

 

Furthermore, one cannot shun that which one is ignorant of. If we do

not know what it is we should shun, how would we recognize it when it

manifests? It is best to know that this can be a result of such

practices, and this is surely why the complete descriptions of yoga

include this discussion (example: the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali), with

a description of such powers.

 

We do not encourage the use of occult powers, but it is important, I

think, to be aware of the distinction between the attainment of such

powers, which is a natural part of the spiritual growth process, and

their use.

 

Many blessings,

Sadhant

I think if you want absolute Truth, then you have to push everyhing else

aside. Isb't the aquisition of occult powers supposed to be the final

test - can one refise to use them and turn completely to God ?. Not

everyone wants the Absolute though.

 

love and Blessings,

My "take" on this has been that if God wants me to have powers

(occult or otherwise) in order to be of service and be whatever

I am 'sposed to be, then I will have such powers. it is my responsiblity

to steward my abilities carefully, develop them as best I can, and

use them as God directs.

 

There have been a few abilities I really wanted, and didn't get,

although later I understood how they wouldn't have helped me...

and there have been a few abilities that I got that I would have

happily handed off to the first person I met, just to be rid of them.

I think learning to "play the hand we are dealt" is a big part

of growing up and becoming spiritually mature.

 

I think any effort directed towards making ourselves into what we are

not is probably going to fail, but the failure itself may be interesting and

educational and the very process by which we come to honor

who and what we are.
