Guru Nanak's teachings explained by Aykaa Mayee has potential to unite all f

[Guest guest]

Hi Jagbir Singh

 

Actually I'm not too familiar with Yogi Bhajan's teachings. I started

with Transcendental meditation with a bija mantra and after many years

recieved an inner transmission of " Sat Naam " . At the time I didn't

know what it meant and so started to research it. What seems to have

happened is many have failed to realize that the Naam is the subtlest

level of the bija " Sat Naam " despite the numerous references to " the

Name, Shabad, word of the Guru (inner) etc in the Sri Guru Granth,

which says specifically the following:

 

Page 1083 – With my tongue I chant the Names given to you. Sat Naam is

your perfect, primal Name, says Nanak…

 

Page 1404 – Sat Naam, the Great and Supreme True Name of God, the

Personification of Creativity…

 

Page 670 - Chant, O my mind, the True Name, Sat Naam, the True Name.

In this world, and in the world beyond, your face shall be radiant, by

meditating continually on the immaculate Lord God.

 

Guru Nanak refers to God as both Mother and Father and the Shakti can

project either form.

 

The Naam is the Shakti of Pure attributless consciousness (Brahman),

when Pure consciousness experiences itself and an " I Am " experience

takes place. Of course this is eternal

 

For some reason this is no longer generally recognized. The Naam

carries the vibration of God in a vibration (Shbad) which can be

followed to it's source and transcended. Many today seem to think

" Wayhey Guru " is the Naam while it is actually a phrase praising God

rather than the Naam. Some of the Kundalini groups seem to still use

" Sat Naam " but spell it Sat Nam and use it combined with various

activities such as breath work etc, rather than the original use in

simran or meditation where The word is experienced at deeper and

deeper levels until it is transcended, much like following a stream to

it's source. God is Transcendent and Imminent and the mantra Sat Naam

takes you to both (Brahman/Shakti)

Despite all the googling i came up with nothing. Why does Yogi Bhajan

know nothing about how kundalini opens the Dsam Dwar? How can that be

when he claims to be an unrivalled expert second to none, and made

kundalini awakening the very foundation of his 3HO organization? Why

is he, together with the rest of the Sikh religious elite, so ignorant

about so vital a means of Self-realization?

the name implies, the causal body is the cause of other two bodies.

It is made of five elements: space, air, fire, water, earth. Through

this gross body we contact the outer world to gather stimuli for our

experiences. The mental and intellectual sheaths together constitute

the subtle body. The subtle body is made up of thoughts. In other

words, the mind and the intellect is the subtle body.

>

> The bliss sheath constitutes the causal body. It consists of vasnas

in unmanifest form. The causal body is the Maya attached to the Jiva .

Due to ignorance, the Jiva remains attached to it, whereby, becomes

separated from its true Self. To put it otherwise, our actions

constitute the causal body. Sookham asthool sagal Bhgawaan - The

auspicious Master is contained everywhere including Sukshma and Sthula

(sggs 299).

states, it seems to gain three different sets of experiences.

Avasthaa satigur te jaan: The four Vedas describe the world of

objects. They explain and expound three states of consciousness. The

Turiya Avasthaa, the Fourth state of consciousness, is known through

the True Guru (sggs 154).

>

> The first state called waking-state-ego, results from the ego

enjoying the expression of consciousness through the gross body. In

the waking-state-ego, we are aware of our body, mind, and experiences

gained in the external world of the sense-objects. To put it

otherwise, in the waking-state the consciousness becomes dissipated

through the mind and the sense organs in the external world of

sense-objects and registers knowledge of them. That is all. To put it

otherwise, while awake, the only enjoy known to man is these five

fields of the objects of the five cognitive senses; forms, taste,

sounds, smells, and touches. Hence, conditioned consciousness (false

ego) confounded itself with the frame of the body, seeing through the

ignorance of its own True Nature, perceives a world of sense-objects,

and thus deluded by its own false perceptions, experiences the

waking-state. Our knowledge of the world-of-objects in this state is

the sum total of our perceptions gathered through our senses.

>

> The second field of consciousness, the dream-state-ego, results from

the play of consciousness in the subtle body. When the same awareness

playing in the outer world-objects withdraws and identifies itself

with the subtle body, it creates a distinct personality called the

dreamer, who has for its sphere of activity the world of dreams. In

other words, the state of dreamer is created when the consciousness is

withdrawn from the gross body and it fuctionts through the subtle

body. As the dreamer is unaware of the gross body, he functions in the

world of dreams, because he is conscious only of the inner world of

objects. The dream world is nothing but a mental creation of the

dreamer himself. During the waking-state, the mind experiences the

world of sense-objects and gathers impressions. During the

dream-state, one part of the dreamer's mind observes these impressions

in another portion of his own mind!

>

> In the third state, the deep-sleep-state-ego, the sleeper does not

desire any sense-objects, nor does he see any dreams. It is the

withdrawing of consciousness from the gross (waking) and subtle

(dream) bodies and functioning through the causal body that creates

the state of deep-sleep. In other words, this state takes place when

we are conscious of neither body nor the mind, therefore it is a state

of living in which usual instruments of cognition are closed down!

Here the Self identifies Itself with the causal body which is made up

of nescience. The only thing we experience in deep-sleep-state is

utter ignorance or negativity; for there is neither form, nor sound,

nor smell, nor taste, nor touch. It illumines nothing in particular,

except the one single idea: " nothingness " . Here in the

deep-sleep-state-ego, thus, the entire consciousness available in the

human form is consolidated and conserved. As a result, there is no

agitation in the mind, because none of the forces that create

> mental agitation and sorrows in the waking and dream states are

present here. Therefore, in this state of homogeneous solid mass of

pure consciousness, the Jeeva experiences complete joy and bliss, by

means of the subtle nescience. It is the gateway (cause) for the

projection of consciousness into other two states of consciousness,

the dream and the waking. For example, when the consciousness from the

sleep-state is projected upwards, it illuminates the dream-state, and

again, when the projection increases and come to the outer world, the

same consciousness makes it possible for us to know the external world

of sense-objects outside, in the waking-state-ego.

>

> The waking-state-ego and the dream-state-ego are conditioned by both

cause and effect. Ignorance or non-apprehension of the Reality is the

cause, and the resulting phenomenal world of names and forms is the

effect. In the dream-state-ego, although we are unaware of the world

of outer gross objects, but we are aware of the world of plurality or

inner objects. The deep-state- ego is different than the waking and

dream states in that it is conditioned by only the cause. Again,

ignorance of the Self is the cause which gives rise to plurality,

finitude, doubts, limitedness, and misunderstanding. There are no

effects in the deep-sleep state as we are unaware of the multiple

world of phenomenon.

consciousness, Turiya Avasthaa (sggs 297).

> The Self, which is absolute bliss, is the witness of the three

states of consciousness (i.e., the Self is common factor present in

all three states). The true nature of the Self is pure, absolute

bliss. Then, what inhibits us from realizing this Self, our true

nature? As gurbani says, our pure Self is covered by the layers of

material contamination or undigested vasnas. These layers are created

by our delusion caused by our false association with the mundane

world. As a result, we constantly try to find bliss in the outer

world. These efforts provide us temporary joy, followed by long spells

of miseries and sorrows. Realization of this Pure Self (i.e., the

" witness " ) is called the Traya, Chauthaa Pada or the Fourth state.

life and consciousness. Its instruments are subtle and causal in

nature. The soul enters the primal cell of life wearing two forms: a

causal body, which in turn is encased in a subtle body. As the name

implies, the causal body is the cause of subtle and gross bodies.

Thus, the soul is encased in these three bodies. The powers in the

various elements of the subtle body help build, maintain, and enliven

the gross physical form. The yogis mention that the centers of life

and consciousness from which these powers function are the subtle

brain ( " lotus " of rays of light or vibration), and the subtle

cerebrospinal axis (or sushumna) containing six Chakras (rings) or

subtle centers.

are the subtle centers of the superconsciousness. The six subtle

centers mentioned by the yogis and the seven planes of consciousness

described in the Vedas are essentially the same. More specific

location of these six subtle centers, and their associated functions,

elements, and cosmic sounds (for Chakras located in the spine) are

briefly summarized as follows:

>

> The top most Chakra or subtle center is located in the Medulla. It

is located in the brain between eyebrows (seat of the single or

spiritual eye), and the top of the cerebrum ( " lotus " of rays of

light). This is the powerhouse of life force and consciousness. It

supplies power to the subtle centers.

sense of hearing. It maintains the etheric background of the body, and

its work produces the musical cosmic sound (Dhuni) of ocean rumbling.

heart. Associated element is air, its work produces the bell-like or

gong sound. It enables the oxygen and the prana or life energy in the

body to combine with the physical cells, and is also responsible for

the sense of touch.

> Lumber or Manipur center is located in the spine opposite to the

naval. Associated element is fire, its work produces the harplike

sound. Its function is to produce the sense of sight, and to maintain

the heat of the body.

>

>

> Sacral or Savdhirthan center is located in the spine opposite to the

generative organs. The associated element is water, it sustains all

the watery substances in the body, and is responsible for the sense of

taste. Its work makes the sound of a flute.

>

>

>

> Coccygeal or Mooldhar center is located at the base of the spine.

The associated element is earth, and it makes a sound of a buzzing

bee. It is responsible for the solidifying of the primal life force

into atoms of flesh, and for producing the sense of smell.

>

>

> The scriptures reveal that the human body is made by five elements

(i.e., ether, air, water, earth, and fire). As indicated above, the

five subtle centers located in the spine are associated with five

different vibratory elements, functions, and musical cosmic sounds

(Dhuni). The sixth medulla center, located above the five spinal

centers, continuously recharges with life and consciousness all the

sub-powerhouses of vibratory elements.

>

> The soul, the pure image of God (Jot Saroop), reigns in the center

of the astral region of medulla, frontal part of brain between the

eyebrows (single or spiritual eye), and at the top of the cerebrum

( " lotus " of rays of light or vibration). In deep meditation, the

devotee goes beyond the physical sounds, and begins to hear five

sounds of subtle forces. The Gurbani narrates all this so beautifully

as follows:

>

> Mastak padam dualai mani. Mahi niranjan tribhavan dhani. Panch sabad

nirmaail baje - on the forehead is the Lotus and around it are the

jewels (or rays of light). In the center is Pure Lord, the Master of

the three worlds; the melody of the five pure sounds resounds there

(sggs 974).

>

> One cannot see these Chakras with the physical eyes. Also, one

cannot take them out by cutting the body. How mystic the human body

really is!

>

> KUNDILINI

>

> With the help of the above background, we can now try to understand

Kundilini. The lowest of the six subtle centers is the coccygeal

center, which is located at the bottom of the spine. As mentioned by

the yogis, all the subtle powers of consciousness and life force

flowing downward from the higher centers into the coccygeal center

come into physical manifestation through the channel of this lower

center. As the life force flows outward from the coccygeal center, it

creates and sustains the region of flesh, bones, blood, marrow,

organs, nerves, veins, arteries, glands, muscles, skin, and so forth.

>

> Kundilini is this coiled creative life force at the base of astral

spine (Mooldhar center). Due to its coiled form of a sleeping serpent,

it is symbolized as a snake. When this life force is allowed to flow

down due to mental delusion, its stinging venom causes the man to

enjoy evil passions. In deep meditation or devotion, when a devotee

turns this creative force inward and commands it to flow upward back

to its source in the " lotus " of light, it reveals the resplendent

inner world of the divine forces and consciousness of the soul and

Spirit. The flowing of this power from the coccyx to the Spirit is

referred in Yoga or devotion as the awakened Kundilini. In other

words, when the spiritual power (born of divine ardor and dispassion)

is lifted upward, it opens or awakens the five spinal centers.

>

> The purpose of human life is to reverse the flow of consciousness by

directing it ascend upward until it unites with the " lotus " of rays of

light in the highest center of brain. According to sages, the

consciousness of man is identified with the three lower centers of the

spine (coccygeal, sacral, and lumbar), which operates under karmic

laws. The liberated man (Jivanmukta) rises above the subtle centers

and penetrates to the highest center of the brain. Here the devotee

beholds his soul as a true reflection of the perfect Spirit, beyond

everything. He is transformed into divine bliss.

>

> Kundilini can be awakened or released either by yoga system or by

the path of Bhagti. Awakening of Kundilini by the yoga system include

yogi exercises or Pranayama. The path of the Bhagti includes the

practice of loving devotion, joining the Saadh Sangat or the company

of the true and the wise ones, and chanting God's Name. In Saadh

Sangat, one attains self-control and mental purity necessary for

awakening the Kundilini. For the speedy awakening of Kundilini, the

path of Bhagti is proclaimed by the spiritual masters to be more

practical, simple and effective for this age of Kal Yuga (Dark Age).

Hi John,

 

i presumed you are familiar with Yogi Bhajan because of the quotes

in your post taken from one of his disciples website which states

that:

" Yogi Bhajan in a lecture says;

 

There will be a controversy that Sat Naam is not a mantra. Sat

Naam is a Panch Tantra Mantra. It is a panch shabad. It is THE

ONLY mantra. When Almighty God wanted to test His reality, He

created the tattvas (principals), and at the time of creation of the

tattvas (principals), Sa-Ta-Na-Ma is the sound. In the beginning

there was the word, word was with God, and word was God. That sound

is right there and that is Sat Naam. True Identity. God created

the tattvas (principals), so that you can find the true identity of

yourself as well as of the God. "

 

----------------

 

" Mantras are sounds that connect us with different levels of

intelligence. SAT NAM is the most basic mantra used in Kundalini

yoga. (pronounced like " but mom " ) SAT means the truth. NAM means

name, identity, to identify with or to call upon. SAT NAM can be

translated as " Truth is God's Name. Truth is my (your, our)

identity. " It is used as a personal mantra to express or tune into

one's infinite identity.

 

SAT NAM is an invocation of our divine consciousness. Its vibration

links us up to our true identity, which is our divine soul. SAT NAM

is called the seed or bij mantra. By transcending on this mantra we

plant the seed of universal truth in our consciousness.

We all know the axiom " The truth shall set you free. " The question

is how do we link up with the Truth. SAT NAM is one mantra that

links us up with the Truth. SAT NAM has the power to set us free by

waking us up to our infinite identity.

 

SAT NAM has the power to clear the subconscious mind so that old

wounds and programs no longer get in the way of Self-realization. It

does so by changing the projection of our minds. Mantra means the

projection of the mind. " Bij " or seed mantras use universal sound

currents to rearrange the habit patterns of the mind. They do so by

accessing the part of the mind that regulates habits. The sounds

erase patterns that vibrate at lower frequencies or do not resonate

with the Truth or our true essence. They establish new habits by

replacing the old frequency with the higher frequency of the Truth.

SAT resonates with universal Truth. NAAM " is the vibration which

creates what it names. "

 

----------------

 

Anyway, can we have some input of my previous questions regarding

the Aykaa Mayee (One Divine Mother) entrenched in the Japjee Sahib.

 

The Japji Sahib is the crowning jewel of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib

(Adi Granth). Early every morning millions of Sikhs across the world

read these revered salutations to the Universal Soul. But for some

reason these millions have missed this priceless pearl of Aykaa

Mayee daily — for more than five centuries! By instinct the

entire religious herd stampedes through the Japji Sahib without even

pausing to admire or inquire who is this Aykaa Mayee — day after

day, month after month, year after year, decade after decade,

century after century! One wonders why are so many so blind for so

long? i have not heard of any Sikh talking about Her. So why are

Sikhs putting their heads in the sand and denying the Devi?

Jai shri Mataji Nirmala Devi!

 

Hello all! I am from Delhi and am living in Dwarka. I just wanted to

say that i am reading all messages for many weeks now and I am truly

enjoying the vibrations. I have to it in cyber cafe to read these but

i do not mind. It is so much education on one place. In our

collective noone shares so much information.

 

Thank you very much
