Do you ever wonder why you make friends and after some time they do

not respond to you or your call? If you are so self centered or

constantly try to focus the conversation on you, the person on the

other side feels less energetic because you are transmitting low

energy if you use every excuse to talk about your self. This kind of

behavior or any similar traits display low and ego dominated energy

which makes your audience unpleasant. First few minutes are extremely

important to an listening audience.

 

Effective communicating or conversation stems from the ability of a

person to properly construct phrases or sentences that will go

directly to the point. No dilly dallying and to immediately emphasize

the message coming from the sender towards the receiver without

obstructions such as the use of unnecessary words to be able to

solicit the full attention of the listener is what every person

should primarily consider when they start a conversation with another

person, construct phrases or sentences that will go directly to the

point.

 

People who get into conversations want respect from one another, and

without respect, nothing concrete will come out from the discussion

if simple etiquette in the course of communication is not practiced.

This goes for all method of communications.

 

Try not to make others views about yourself more important than your

own opinion of who you are. Take the word " NO, NOT, NOTHING, I DO NOT

KNOW, out of your vocabulary. Because if you harbor these negative

thoughts, then you are creating thoughts, aura around which is

negative. And the universal Being is positive so you are breaking the

connection.

 

Do not negate this Antar Spandan or the Inner Voice, let it come

forward and see what you will see.

 

Some times when you are praying, chanting or reciting any shloka you

feel the subtle dimension, the means and the ability to perceive the

Supreme without the use of the five senses, mind, and intellect. This

subtle perception is called an anubhuti (spiritual experience).

 

Come forward all of you to the Supreme happiness of the highest

quality, an experience of the soul beyond the comprehension of the

mind and intellect. A Subtle Form that which is beyond the

comprehension of the five senses, mind and intellect. It does not

matter where but go some where, any place, at home, in your heart but

find a corner that is just for you and you will find me in there. You

do not have to leave your home, children, wife, friends, relatives to

find Me. I am near you all the time, open your eyes and you will see

me all colors forms and shapes. I am the Blue in the Sky, Green in

the Meadows, Red in the Flowers, Pink in the clean rosy cheeks of

kids, White in the innocent smiling faces.

 

Do not always complain and seek me when you need me come to me when

you do not need me that is when you will be able to see ME because

your eyes are fully open at that time. They are not closed with

sorrow or anger or pain or what ever emotions are engulfing you at

that time. You are trying to swim or learning to swim, how can you

enjoy the water and the different techniques of swimming. When you

are a master swimmer you enjoy the water, you revel in it. You are

part of it. I am asking you to swim with me to a different ocean.

 

Lord Ganesh removes sorrows & brings happiness in life by worshiping

Lord Ganesh & performing Atharvashirsha Avartan.

 

The science behind the Lord Ganesh Murti; The moon symbolises the

head.The earth symbolises the abdomen. The seven nether worlds,

saptapatal, symbolise the legs.

 

Have you ever noticed Lord Ganesh is made of number 3 (Trinity, this

number three appears every where) Only the trunk is drawn with number

one rest of the body is drawn with number 3.

 

Lord Ganapati is made up of the numbers 1 and 3.

 

1 means the root or spiritual experience or OM the pranav naad and 3

means the creator, sustainer and destroyer. Such a deity which is the

creator, sustainer and destroyer and which endows spiritual

experiences is Ganapati.

 

1 means Brahman, 2 means the Great Illusion (Maya) and 3 means

nescience or agyaan and avidya. Ganapati is the one who brings 3 that

is ignorance to the state of 1 that is Brahman.

 

1 means one dimension, 3 means the absolute earth or Prithvi with

element having three dimensions. Ganapati is the one leading us from

three dimensions to one. In Spirituality, every one aims at going

from 'many to one' 3 TO 1.

 

The entire Lord Ganesh symbolizes Omkar, the unmanifested principle

or nirgun nirakar param braham.

 

Om omkara bindu samyuktam Nityam dyayanti yoginaha

Kaamadam mokshadam chaiva Onkaraya namo namaha

 

Sages meditate upon Omkar or Pranav Nada with Bindu or Shri to attain

moksha. Please note the word BINDU, the top of Sri yantra or BINDU in

OM.

 

Om pranasyedam vashe sarvam Tridive yath pratiptitam

Matheva putran rakshasva Shreescha pranjnaascha videhi na ithi

 

Prana the vital force pervades all the three worlds (below the earth,

the earth and above the earth) All the activities are directed by

prana To that very prana we request to protect us as a mother

protects her children.

 

SRI GANESH IS THAT PRANA VAYU, VYAN VAYU, APPAN VAYU, UDAN VAYU, and

SAMAN VAYU

Under the divine guidance of 1008 Yogiraj Pratah Smarniya Param

Poojya Dadaji and Param Poojya Guruji, Om Kriya Yog family has been

practicing ancient vedic sadhana for past 10 years by meeting once a

month, on last Sunday of the month.

 

This year we have decided to start Om Kriya Yog annual family picnic

to encourage interaction between all family members. Even though,

just as all our functions, this picnic is free for every one,

donations are welcome. Please email or call any of the below listed

phone numbers if you decide to bring a dish. It can be salad, pasta,

vegetables, soft drinks, samosa, pakoda, paper goods, finger food,

fruits, dessert or any item you feel suitable.

Each and every child will get a prize of $5.00 gift certificate. To

qualify for this gift certificate, they must RECITE A SANSKRIT

SHLOKA. NO EXCEPTIONS. The reason behind it is to encourage kids to

learn Sanskrit and its beauty. Actually it will be wonderful if all

grownups can share their spiritual growth or moments with every one.

 

The purpose of this picnic is to encourage participation of

everybody specially children in an outdoor environment. Every one

can recite or show their talent in music or dance. Please make a

note it should be spiritual not filmy songs or dance. May be some

one can perform a dance or do a skit. We will have games such as

Cricket and Soccer.

 

We will request everybody to come to this picnic and encourage

participation of their children. To keep a head count, please let us

know if you are planning to attend the picnic and what item you want

to bring. There will be no fee for participation but to meet the

expense, your donation to `Om kriya Yog' will be appreciated.
