Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Sat Nam all, I have a pretty short and perhaps 'stupid' question: How to dissolve problems ?! I mean - practically? It sounds for me as a somehow vague, if not arrogant spiritual advise if I have to tell my students 'take your problems to your higher chakras and drop them'. Especially if it comes to 'real' problems - unemployment, disease, family- or mental problems etc. Do you have some input? Blessings and greetings from Shanghai, Adarsh S.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 The question that you have askedis ineresting, that hounded me for years. Then I found out some remedy. What I do is, drop the practical problem in the final stage of seing the unending all-encompassing golden white sea of light, I simply see my problems dipped in it. These problems are burntout, I se the smoke, the flicker of flames and finally thre is no trace. I remain at that stage for a few minutes. Then uttering Om Shantihi for three times I finish my meditation. I do it at the bedtime. After the session I go to sleep. Next day the agonizing worry is gone. Rather the problems seems to be someone else's. So, there is opportunity to analyse the situation calmly, take decision and work competently. I find that it helps, and there is no unwanted or vexing situation in between the goal and me. Hope it will work for you also. Thank you for your question.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Sat Nam Jürgen Laske jio, Fair Question. Many problems/issues if tackled head on only create more irritation and entrenchment. We even come to identify ourselves with the problem and in so doing, seal our fate. However, if we have good friends in our life they wont stand by while we do this to ourself. They will intervene. In a sense, Yogi Bhajan and other great teachers are our best friends. They are like "emergency brakes" for us when we can't stop ourselves. They can show us, and sometime brutally (or we can tune into the space ourselves) that little flame of pure consciousness that, all too often, is easily snuffed out by the dust of our own mediocrity, of what is normal and accepted. We have to bring ourselves, somehow, to the place where we drop our doubts and can be inspired. It means putting our best foot forward and deciding to be silent to any negativity. Negativity will come up, but choose to simply watch it and listen to it but don't Be IT or entertain it. Never mind about Chakras. Just continue projecting "The Word" (yoga/meditation). Keep tasting your sweetness. Turnin' that water into wine, and so on. Eventually, through compounding interest, you'll find that your richness is greater than debts and what "debts" we have may come to be viewed as gifts. Oftentimes, we as yoga practitioners don't understand where our weakness is and simply practice without and picture of what we want or where we want to be. Numerology (Akar Jantri at www.3HO.org) is an excellent tool for getting a handle on our self from the perspective of the "deep non-personal yogi" within. This system works if one lets it. You can learn what it is you need to do. Question and tear it apart the system if one wishes but continue to practice. Does that sound good? That really is the deal.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Hi Jurgen, Meditation helps with all problems even the "real" ones to which you cite. It is in the perception (the angle) of "our problems" that renders them so. If we perceive those problems as learning tools, that life is a school to where our soul journeys in order to gain the experience it lacks, then we act more lovingly toward ourselves and to others (our teachers) along the journey. Sometimes the lessons are not pleasant but if we think, speak and act through the power and center of our Higher Self - which is ultimately Universal Love - and not the ego, as the lessons are learned (mastery of ourselves), everything in our life gets sweeter, etc. As within, so is without.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 dear jurgen laske, the KY practitioner knows how to disconnect from problems generated by this frenetic, in-humane civilization. either you are a KY practitioner or you are not. if you are not, you are vulnerable to the system by which you live, which, eventually, will destroy you should you be in the wrong place at the wrong moment. KY practice implements in the human conscious the grace to "dissolve" without even thinking. KY establishes a conscious/instant behavior or a conscious/instinct behaviour. should the directives of mega teachers like Yogi Bhajan, be not implemented as behavior, these teachings will remain marvelous literatures at the academic level. KY sessions should not be considered a break from the system, rather, they should be considered as teaching classes to implement, in the consciousness, new behavior, otherwise the session would become a mood making session with the sensation that the practice is loosing of its impactness. sat nam nabil - > Sat Nam all, > > I have a pretty short and perhaps 'stupid' question: > > How to dissolve problems ?! > I mean - practically? > > It sounds for me as a somehow vague, if not arrogant spiritual advise if I > have to tell my students 'take your problems to your higher chakras and > drop them'.

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 Dear Adarsh and Irina, 'Take your problems to your higher chakras and drop them"...it took me about 2 years to figure out what Yogi Bhajan meant with this quote and just these past few weeks I started understanding how it could work..when the problem that you're facing feels like a huge weight on your shoulders or your stomach...and you really don't want to hear any smart quotes...from anyone! I think that taking it to the higher centers means looking at it from a higher point of you. Get out of the situation for a while and look at it as an observer, as a third partie. What would you advise yourself if you were your own teacher or best friend? Detachment always helps to clear the way. Then connect with your higher centers through your kundalini yoga practice. Through a kriya or a specific meditation...the higher chakras form the triangle of communication with the Divine..connect to that and you will receive guidance..trust the higher intelligence of the universe for assistance, it really works. Most problems in our lives are there to teach us stuff! Acknowledging that, takes half the pain away because you realize that you must change something in your life in order to be happier or healthier. Change very often is experienced as pain, if you're afraid of it or not ready to accept it. Connect to your heart, listen to it and feel what your heart really needs. It will help you understand and most of all ACCEPT the situation. Accepting doesn't necessarily mean sticking with your problem but basically it helps you Un-freak out with it...when you're cool you're always more creative in finding solutions and you certainly react better to any situation. And anyway there is usually 2 possible outcomes in any situation : you either Can do something to get rid of your problem or you Can't do nothing. Kundalini Yoga will either give you the strength to change the things you can or endure the things that you can't change.
