Guest guest Posted February 8, 2003 Report Share Posted February 8, 2003 Sat Nam Gururattan, Feeling connected to or integrated is what i get from meditation. It leaves me feeling unity with the Divine. "My current goal is to anchor my consciousness in this reality of mergining physical, mental emotional and etheric realities. After I achieve that and move to the next phase I will let you know." --how do you go about 'anchoring' them? Maybe you could explain for us, is their a meditation? Keep up!

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 Sat Nam, Thank you everyone for your sincere replies to my very genuine and longtime conflict between being a practising Buddhist for the last ten years and also a KY teacher. (My practise is Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism, which involves reciting prayers and chanting a mantra for 30 mins twice daily that translates something like "Lotus of the Wonderful Dharma") .I apologise for not having been involved in the discussion that I started these past few days, but I was attending my teacher training course over the weekend. And it was in this action of becoming a KY teacher that the miracle occurred for me. As I practised my Sadhana and did the first module of my Kundalini Yoga teacher's course along with the other students and the teacher, I felt suddenly more deeply inspired by and connected to my Buddhist faith than ever before. My conflict no longer existed and I felt moved to go out and teach my Buddhist friends yoga! Not only that, there was another girl on the yoga teacher course who practises the same Buddhism(there are literally hundreds of different types of Buddhism) and had the same conflict . I realised that in chanting Ek Ong Kar -there is One Creator -the point of our Sadhana and meditations is to create unity both within ourselves and without.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 Dear Guru Sahai Kaur, Thank yoiu so much for your beautiful letter. >(My practise is Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism, which involves reciting prayers and chanting a mantra for 30 mins twice daily that translates something like "Lotus of the Wonderful Dharma") *This is Naad yoga too. Just different mantras. They all work if you do them. >.I apologise for not having been involved in the discussion that I started these past few days, but I was attending my teacher training course over the weekend.

We know that intellectually, but when we actually experience it, something very profound awakens in us. Then the inner conflict, expressed as KY or Buddhism, no longer exists. We all want to get to the same place and the same realization. That's why some of us go to the silent Buddhist retreats. I think that a good set of KY before sitting in silence would be a great addition to the program. Guru Dev Singh who teaches Sat Nam Rasayan said in one class that he stole this practice from the Buddhists. Read the Buddhist texts and you will see that the principles are the same. So Yogi Bhajan, who taught Guru Dev, is teaching Buddhism??!! :+) Now you and your friends can hopefully relax and teach KY. :+) Now that we got this worked out, we don't need a war in Iraq.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 Dear Deva, > Feeling connected to or integrated is what i get from meditation. It leaves me feeling unity with the Divine. Great. It is integrateing both the maculine and feminine polarities. > "My current goal is to anchor my consciousness in this reality of mergining physical, mental emotional and etheric realities.

The meditation is called practice. Here is a very short summary, I will write it up sometime in a longer verson. 1. Do any Ky set, meditation and after each exercise tune into the space inside by looking and listening inside. Connect with the place that is always there when you return to it. This is the masculine polarity. 2. Feel any sensation, thought or feeling that comes to your attention and be with it in the stable space. Keep being with it, until it all integrates into one. Everything that moves, changes or vibrates is the body is the feminine. That is basically it. Not rocket science, but it certainly takes dedication and patience to merge all the energies into one.
