Guest guest Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Pls. dont take kundalini awakening as an isolated excercise,awakening is inherent to ur daily life, the hypothetical case given by you itself is also an example of activated kundalini. the world is dominated by mother divine's maya and then to liberate you there is again her grace or shakti. recall - " satyam shivam sundaram " . So, if a person remains truthfull as well as honest enjoying his life, means unknowingly his kundalini is awakened and he must get spiritual experiences too. pls. dont try to understand spirituality with hypothetical cases, you may get pervert. take spirituality in daily practical life, do experiements there and enjoy the results. pls. note that kundalini awakening is in fact awakening the self, and it's not a physical excercise that u can do with some yogas or asanas, do yoga with applying ur heart and thoughts along with good karma in daily life. the more maya is cleared the more power is realized. regards, Lalit. , Shashie Shekhar <polite_astro wrote: > > ll HARE RAM ll > What is the benefit or use of such realization? Suppose a person has passed away after 75 years of age to pass his life in peaceful manner and going on the path of honesty and truthfulness but he never listens about the so called Kundalini or their jagran.Will he not get Moksha etc? As far as sanskaar is concerned.These are depend on elders / family sanskaars in childhood and later on Satsang and God help those who help others and to think for others welfare it is the true grace of kind Almight and real feeling of divinity as i understand.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 ll HARE RAM ll Dear Lalit, Ok,you may be right but the exact name of Kundalini or their jagran is Gyaan and for getting Gyaan,Bhakti / firm belief is must like Shukdeo Ji,Prahlad and Dhruva and they got Bhakti even in childhood.Moreover Sukdeo deo ji got it Bhakti in womb.Plz try to get more experience (MANAN) and leave this topic and go ahead because self experience is more important in such case as i am bhajnanandi person,so feel unfit in arguements. God bless Shashie Shekhar litsol <litsol wrote: Pls. dont take kundalini awakening as an isolated excercise,awakening is inherent to ur daily life, the hypothetical case given by you itself is also an example of activated kundalini. the world is dominated by mother divine's maya and then to liberate you there is again her grace or shakti. recall - " satyam shivam sundaram " . So, if a person remains truthfull as well as honest enjoying his life, means unknowingly his kundalini is awakened and he must get spiritual experiences too. pls. dont try to understand spirituality with hypothetical cases, you may get pervert. take spirituality in daily practical life, do experiements there and enjoy the results. pls. note that kundalini awakening is in fact awakening the self, and it's not a physical excercise that u can do with some yogas or asanas, do yoga with applying ur heart and thoughts along with good karma in daily life. the more maya is cleared the more power is realized. regards, Lalit. , Shashie Shekhar wrote: > > ll HARE RAM ll > What is the benefit or use of such realization? Suppose a person has passed away after 75 years of age to pass his life in peaceful manner and going on the path of honesty and truthfulness but he never listens about the so called Kundalini or their jagran.Will he not get Moksha etc? As far as sanskaar is concerned.These are depend on elders / family sanskaars in childhood and later on Satsang and God help those who help others and to think for others welfare it is the true grace of kind Almight and real feeling of divinity as i understand.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 wonderful post lalit. I truthfully agree. the power of realizing the self is the greatest gift to an individual. greater than all the wealth. the esteem of realizing the self is so powerful on the individual. may you be spreading this message again and again so others can perform their sadhana with such heartfelt devotion and not seek gratification from these resuts. may they blessed for daring to be who they are. namaskar, __________ Raja G.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Dear Lalit, > pls. note that kundalini awakening is in fact awakening the self, > and it's not a physical excercise that u can do with some yogas or > asanas, do yoga with applying ur heart and thoughts along with good > karma in daily life. the more maya is cleared the more power is > realized. Very very well-said. Kundalini is basically the microcosmic representation of the divine Mother (Moola Prakriti of this universe) in an individual. It is Kundalini shakti that binds one to a specific existence. It is also Kundalini shakti then that unbinds one and liberates one. Basically, Kundalini is the shakti (energy) that causes one's self- awareness/self-consciousness to exist. Though Vedanta teaches that we are non-different from Brahman and in fact do not exist as a separate being, Kundalini shakti binds us to a specific existence in a specific body with a specific set of vasanas (conditioning of mind) and a specific set of karmas (previous actions) and we think of ourselves as separate beings from Brahman as a result of that. In most people, Kundalini is asleep in mooladhara. One' self- awareness clings on to a concept of self that is very simplistic (I, this body, so and so name, doing so and so things in the world and taking care of my body and family etc etc) without questioning. As Kundalini wakes up and rises, one's self-awareness becomes more refined and more inclusive of the entire universe and individualization (which is the root of all problems and which feeds the six internal enemies) becomes weaker and weaker. Various vasanas start to drop off and one's consciousness becomes purer and purer. Whether one thinks in terms of Kundalini or not does not matter. Kundalini awakens and rises irrespective of what path one follows and whether one thinks in terms of Kundalini or not. Kundalini can wake up and rise in people belonging to non-Hindu religions also, such as Islam and Christianity, if some persistent practices purify one's consciousness and start to open up one towards the universal and non- individualistic concept of Self. If a person who is into jnaana yoga realizes that all is Brahman and does not feel anger when someone says a bad thing about him or does not feel desire when he sees something considered desirable, because he realizes that all is Brahman, one's Kundalini may be awake and progressing up. If a person who is into bhakti yoga realizes that all is Krishna (or Shiva or Allah) and does not feel anger when someone says a bad thing about him or does not feel desire when he sees something considered desirable, because he realizes that all is Krishna (or Shiva or Allah), one's Kundalini may be awake and progressing up. Kundalini awakening and rise can happen in people following bhakti yoga, raja yoga, karma yoga or jnaana yoga or in people belonging to Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Islam, Judaism or Christianity or any path. Awakening Kundalini is a *relatively* easy thing. Purifying Kundalini and joing the divine Mother with Shiva is the difficult thing. All the vasanas we have and things we cling on to become big obstacles. A lot of kundalini awakened people get stuck in lower chakras and do not progress beyond Manipoora. Most people who talk about Kundalini at Visuddhi or Ajna only experience a small amount of prana vaayu moving in those chakras and not the entire Kundalini (entire self- awareness) in those chakras. The best thing is to not worry about it much and not consciously do anything to awaken Kundalini. Read scriptures, do introspection on one's own behavior, keep correcting one's own weaknesses, be honest and sincere and put in one's best effort in whatever spiritual path one is on. Have faith in one's preceptor and have faith in whatever concept of God one believes in. Then things will happen automatically, slowly, naturally and smoothly. * * * If anybody believes that they know somebody with an awakened Kundalini, I will be interested in having the birthdata. Please send the birthdata to pvr (I will soon stop checking this and not see mails here). Please indicate whether the data is secretive or I can share with others. If you want, you can give the name or keep the name secretive. If you give me the name, please indicate whether the name should be secretive or whether I can reveal it when I discus the chart. If you want, I can keep everything secret and not reveal the name and data both. I have some charts, but do not have permission to reveal the data. IMHO, D-20 is the chart to see Kundalini awakening. The 8th house from lagna and the 8th house from nodes (reckoned in reverse) are important. Nodes are important. The 12th house is also important. Of course, one does not meet many Kundalini awakened clients. Once I saw one D-20 in which I was convinced that the person had a Kundalini awakening in a specific year a couple of decades back. So I took a chance and asked him directly if he had a Kundalini awakening in that year. He said that he locked himself in a room for a week pondering on the question " who am I " and crying helplessly. He read vedanta etc and wondered " am I this body that perishes. No. Then who am I? Please show me who I am " and started to cry. After a few days, he had a death like experience. He felt that his self-awareness was leaving the body and he felt a big amount of electricity flowing up in his back. He started to hear certain sounds loud and see certain scenes. He lost awareness of his physical body and he had a clear vision where a specific Hindu God held his hand and took him somewhere and showed some things. I have some idea about the astrological factors in seeing Kundalini. But this is an area where we need some data.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Dear Narasimha, What you said is the essence of knowledge, I had idea but i was unable to express it and i m sure i got a person who is needeed in this world for this century - " Kundalini shakti binds us to a specific existence in a specific body with a specific set of vasanas (conditioning of mind) and a specific set of karmas (previous actions) and we think of ourselves as separate beings from Brahman as a result of that " Let's do good something togather for our sake and for the world sake. I m happy to come in ur touch. when two months back i became serious to learn astrology, i went to a book store to purchase ur book, with no idea just in couple of months i m going to interact with u and u will be there to refine my ideas that i originated within me out of my quest for the god and my relation with the god. I had another query, pls. get me an answer - " How soul and mind are interconnected, where soul lives in the body and how astral body is formed " . I had out of body experience twice in my life, but i dont know it's process, it just happened with grace of hanuman ji in his temple. I have seenm in the head there is some force like anti gravitational force, which doesnt allow you to go out of body, i think this lord shiva's force, i m not sure. still, sometimes, astral bodies are formed, goes away and even u can project them sometimes somewhere. I have seen in my case, there was a cord connecting astral body to the naval point of my body. still there is so much to know and so much to discover, but now i m in lack of resources. regards, Lalit. , " Narasimha Rao " <pvr wrote: > > Dear Lalit, > > > pls. note that kundalini awakening is in fact awakening the self, > > and it's not a physical excercise that u can do with some yogas or > > asanas, do yoga with applying ur heart and thoughts along with good > > karma in daily life. the more maya is cleared the more power is > > realized. > > Very very well-said. > > Kundalini is basically the microcosmic representation of the divine > Mother (Moola Prakriti of this universe) in an individual.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Dear Lalitji, That chord you saw, is known as the silver chord. It ties up the physical body to the astral body, and when a person dies, this chord is broken, just like when a child is born and connected through the umblical chord with His mother, which has to be cut, to make the Child live independently on its own individual entity. This silver chord is one of the reason why God comes to know , if anyone stays hungry in this world for more than 3 days, because all these silver chords are connected to the Almighty ... And when a Jeeva does not get food for 3 days even after begging for same, God will somehow or the other arrange food for the person to be sent through one or the other countless means at His disposal. The rare occurrences of Out-of-body experiences, which one attains, should not be a fullstop to make any one feel contented. Beause one has to develop this consciously, There are certain Yogic excersises which teaches one to go out of body consciously , starting with one leaving his body in his own bed room, on the roof and gradually over the building terrace etc. and no imaginations here, but actually one shoukd be able to tell what objects areplaced on the roof in his room or on the terrace, without leaving his physicaly body out of the bed. These have to be performed under supervision of a Good guru (Who may be present physically or in ether, does not matter) and which has its own benefits for spiritual progress., because one actually learns to live " After Life " and practises on same before dying, one prolongs his physical stay, because breathing in physical body stops,and thus incraeses longevity. One learns to spiritually communicate out of body with the Masters and Elevated souls, who have also left there physical bodies and present in the atmosphere. This stage is of course the advanced stage of this Yoga. But these are all secrets which one cannot reveal for punishment follows a person who makes such knowledge public. regards, Bhaskar. , " litsol " <litsol wrote: > > Dear Narasimha, > > What you said is the essence of knowledge, I had idea but i was > unable to express it and i m sure i got a person who is needeed in > this world for this century - > > " Kundalini shakti binds us to a specific existence in a > specific body with a specific set of vasanas (conditioning of mind) > and a specific set of karmas (previous actions) and we think of > ourselves as separate beings from Brahman as a result of that " > > Let's do good something togather for our sake and for the world sake. > I m happy to come in ur touch. when two months back i became serious > to learn astrology, i went to a book store to purchase ur book, with > no idea just in couple of months i m going to interact with u and u > will be there to refine my ideas that i originated within me out of > my quest for the god and my relation with the god. > > I had another query, pls. get me an answer - " How soul and mind are > interconnected, where soul lives in the body and how astral body is > formed " . > > I had out of body experience twice in my life, but i dont know it's > process, it just happened with grace of hanuman ji in his temple. > > I have seenm in the head there is some force like anti gravitational > force, which doesnt allow you to go out of body, i think this lord > shiva's force, i m not sure. > > still, sometimes, astral bodies are formed, goes away and even u can > project them sometimes somewhere.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Dear Lalitji, At times we cannot see, but have to believe. We cannot see our Parents copulating and the particular cells meeting its counterpart and achieving Life in the Mothers embryo, and we acquiring birth due to this. Yet we have to believe that this man is our Father, and this man is our Mother. The world exists on belief. We sleep under the fan every night , with the belief that it will not fall on us. We eat food made by our family with the belief that it is not poisioned. We will post this mail with the belief that it will get posted. We will tell a freind that I will meet you next Sunday with a belief that we are going to live uptil next Sunday. I do not talk anything without base, (Knowledge known through venerated people, or own experience) or about anything where some one may be able to pick me up, for what I have written , and stick me to the wall. I normally don't leave such space. I have not just read about silver chord but learnt about it and can write 20 Pages on this, but this is just a small part which ties the astral body to the physical one and does not actually need much time to be spent upon. This name " Silver chord " is given just to express it. Just like whether you call a apple, Orange, Mango or Banana, the Apple fruit would still remain the apple. Actual experiences, is the source through which we receive knowledge. Hearsay from respected people who have experienced, is to be believed. Thus I have learnt about Silver chord when doing teletheraphy ( Healing through distance on subject through his medium via Cosmic rays on wavelength of medium). I have read about this at 2 other places, but of hundreds of Volumes read in this Life time, in Hindi and English it would be difficult to point out where. I have with me one book which is for private circulation, and the author is a lady who has remained my colleague ( Shishya from same Guru who is no more) during these learning sessions. She is otherwise a Yoga Master too at one of the famous Centres in Bombay, for the selected few. ( I am not a member here). This is very small basic knowledge which is a drop of water coming from the gallons to be picked up from the Dark Cloud. We have to move beyond this and look upwards for Non Physical experiences, while remaining in the physical. The Breathless state is to be achieved only remaining within this body, which will actually give one the real taste one is looking for. The more period one is able to remain so, within a meditative state, the more " Anand " one derives. This " Anand " may contain visions, intuitive knowledge, levitation, Samadhi, telepathic conversations with the elevated spiritual Masters, Kundali Jagran, and also going beyond the Door ( crossing the golden and blue halo and the 5 pointed star) where one may actually get direct instructions from God., on how to perform in the rest of his Life. We must spend more time on meditation and introspection, because these talks will have no fruitful culminations, unless we put them in practise, and time is very short will all of us, we never know when our station will come and we will be forced to get down the train, as we have ticket only for a limited journey and not for a endless one, in this Life. regards, Bhaskar. , " litsol " <litsol wrote: > > No Sir, > > Silver cord is a name that we give to it, and i w'd have to see, who > has given it first time, is it his imagination or actual experience. > > If u can tell us where u read about this silver cord, will help us a > lot. > > regards, > Lalit. > > , " Bhaskar " <bhaskar_jyotish@> > wrote: > > > > Dear Lalitji, > > > > That chord you saw, is known as the silver chord.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Bhaskar Ji, Namaskaar, " The Breathless state is to be achieved only remaining within this body, which will actually give one the real taste one is looking for. The more period one is able to remain so, within a meditative state, the more " Anand " one derives " No, Bhaskar Ji, this breathless stage is mere a physical state, when i relaized this, i was not sure how correct i m, I was in search of some books to support my views, fortunately, last year in allahabad railway station, I got a hindi version of a great book " science of soul " in which author who is a great yogi, admits that breathless state is just nothing, this sort of samadhis are not the samadhis, he remained thirsty though he was appreciated and respected by crowd. finally, once during his himalaya visit his mysterious guru met him, he met him only once who ook him from physical level to spiritual level where was anaahat's ananda. last year i got 4 invitations from the ashram of " Pilot Baba " but as i was not fascinated with such yogic excercises, I never went, last month, sunil nair ji, suggested me that he may have more to tell, now i think i w'd visit him sometime in future. he clearly writes in his book, breathless state of samadhi is no way a samaadhi and is a kind of physical excercise, it doesnt give enough divine pleasure, only u get prolonged sleep. sleeping is not awakening. Now, i m feeling tired and not interested to write much on this subject, How are you and how is the family. When i think of you, I dont know why but i get the image of a person settling issues to face more issues, but u r a good person with a happy heart within. regards, Lalit. , " Bhaskar " <bhaskar_jyotish wrote: > > Dear Lalitji, > > At times we cannot see, but have to believe. > We cannot see our Parents copulating and the > particular cells meeting its counterpart > and achieving Life in the Mothers embryo, and > we acquiring birth due to this. > Yet we have to believe that this man is > our Father, and this man is > our Mother.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Dear Lalitji, Namaste, When we are talking of breathless state, it is understood that we are talking only about the Yogis ( Not Physical excersise masters or their students), neither the persons who can control breath to appear on TV Shows(But few of these also qualify for the state we are talking about) I am talking of those persons who are into meditative states and while meditating, are able to reach those states where the inhalation , retention and exhalation is stilled , not by force but by automatic entering deep states of Dhyana. (Chapter 6 of the Bhagavad Gita and shlokas 11-15 speak the essence of what I am speaking above)(Chapter 5 Shloka 27-28 talk in essence about controlling the breath) Anahaats ananada is not easy to obtain. That is the sound of Om pervading all the space in the world (Apart from the Shoonya Space). For some people by birth they can hear this sound slightly but that is not cultivated, one has to cultivate himself like a plant, which has to be watered,and in time to come will be able to hear this sound, and not as a gift from anyone, can this come. These are the prizes for which one has to work himself. I like entering issues where we can enjoy discussions without forcing ones views on others, Here mutual respect if mantained is good, and as soon as one feels that heat is going to enter the thread, it must be better for one to quit. My family is much better by health now. Thanks for the concern and rememberance. regards, Bhaskar. , " litsol " <litsol wrote: > > Bhaskar Ji, > > Namaskaar, > > " The Breathless state is to be achieved > only remaining within this body, which will > actually give one the real taste one is looking for. > The more period one is able to remain so, within > a meditative state, the more " Anand " one derives " > > No, Bhaskar Ji, this breathless stage is mere a physical state, when > i relaized this, i was not sure how correct i m, I was in search of > some books to support my views, fortunately, last year in allahabad > railway station, I got a hindi version of a great book " science of > soul " in which author who is a great yogi, admits that breathless > state is just nothing, this sort of samadhis are not the samadhis, he > remained thirsty though he was appreciated and respected by crowd. > > finally, once during his himalaya visit his mysterious guru met him, > he met him only once who ook him from physical level to spiritual > level where was anaahat's ananda. > > last year i got 4 invitations from the ashram of " Pilot Baba " but as > i was not fascinated with such yogic excercises, I never went, last > month, sunil nair ji, suggested me that he may have more to tell, now > i think i w'd visit him sometime in future. > > he clearly writes in his book, breathless state of samadhi is no way > a samaadhi and is a kind of physical excercise, it doesnt give enough > divine pleasure, only u get prolonged sleep. > > sleeping is not awakening. > > Now, i m feeling tired and not interested to write much on this > subject, How are you and how is the family.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Dear Lalit, > What you said is the essence of knowledge, I had idea but i was > unable to express it and i m sure i got a person who is needeed in > this world for this century - Honestly, you are overestimating my ability. I am like a servant who goes around and distributes the gems belonging to the king when a minister asks him to do so. If the little tidbits of knowledge I share are like gems, god is like the king who owns them. My guru is like the minister in the analogy. So the knowledge is god's and the specific intention to share is my guru's. I am just a nimitta. > I had another query, pls. get me an answer - " How soul and mind are > interconnected, where soul lives in the body and how astral body is > formed " . Physical body is maya. Just as Sun in the sky may appear, by reflection, like 100 different Suns in 100 water pots on the ground, Brahman appears like multiple objects when projected onto the " field of duality " (also known as " maya " , but unfortunately this beautiful word has negative connotations in the mind of some people). That way, astral body is also maya! It is merely an object in the field of duality. The same holds for the so-called soul. A sadhaka who is a mumukshu should focus mind on one thing (e.g. on Brahman or Krishna or Mahalakshmi or Shiva or Mahakali or Allah etc) and view everything in the field of duality as an extension/reflection of that one thing. Ging back to the previous example, instead of looking at 100 Suns in 100 water pots and understanding their links, relationships and differences, it is advisable to try to look up and find the one Sun in the sky that is reflected in all those pots. One may normally experience the objects of bhooloka through the normal senses, when Kundalini (self-awareness) is in asleep. When Kundalini reaches a higher chakra, one may experience the objects of a higher loka such as bhuvarloka or suvarloka or whatever. It may seem exciting at first as the mind likes these stimuli, but the bottomline is that that too is as much an illusion as bhooloka is!!! Specific objects and experiences are not worth developing an attachment to. Unless one has single-minded focus on ONE thing as mentioned above, and refuses to be deluded by apparently different objects and sees all objects at all levels/realms of consciousness as that ONE thing (the ONE Sun in the sky in the previous example), one will not be liberated. Otherwise, one will be lost for ever in a study of the 100 Suns in the water pots. One in jnaana maarga (Pingala strong path - knowledge) can ponder on nirguna Brahman as that ONE thing and reach the stage where all objects are viewed as that. One in bhakti maarga (Ida strong path - surrender) can ponder on a deity such as Narayana or Sadashiva or Krishna or Mahalakshmi as that ONE thing and reach the state where all objects are viewed as that. Thus, irrespective of the path, a mumukshu overcomes the field of duality by getting rid of duality/multiplicity from the mind by focussing on one thing. Analysis and differentiation of various objects of the field of duality, from that point of view, is not a useful exercise. Sorry for the long and indirect answer, but this is the answer I can offer at this time. > I had out of body experience twice in my life, but i dont know it's > process, it just happened with grace of hanuman ji in his temple. There are thousands of nadis and so many chakras in our sookshma sareera. Depending on where Kundalini goes, there can be so many different kinds of out of body experiences. There are just too many possibilities. After all, the entire body is a microcosm of the entire universe. Various lokas (worlds) exist as various realms of consciousness within us and various gods and demons also exist within us. One can experience all those when Kundalini reaches the corresponding places in the sookshma sareera. Thus, the range of possible " out of [normal] body experiences " is too large to understand and catalog. More than experiencing various things, the important thing is to realize that nothing is worth clinging on to and to keep the focus on the " ONE thing " as I mentioned above. > still there is so much to know and so much to discover, but now i m > in lack of resources. All the resources are there internally. One just has to keep doing the chosen sadhana.. * * * I recommend homam (fire ritual) as a spiritual practice. Fire by nature purifies. That is why it is called paavaka (purifier). We tend to become like the people that we spend a lot of time with. If one spends a lot of time with fire, one starts to become more like fire, i.e. the fire within one becomes stronger. If bhootagni (existential fire in the sookshma sareera) becomes strong, it starts to burn various impurities in various nadis/chakras in the sookshma sareera and energy flow becomes smoother. After all, various vasanas we have as a result of various karmas essentially manifest as various impurities in our nadis and they block the flow of the energy. I have not seen a spiritual practice more effective than homam. One hour of homam is as perhaps effective as 5 hours of highly focussed dhyanam. There is that power in an external fire. If one performs a 30-60 minute homam everyday for a few months, it WILL result in a clear improvement in one's focus of mind and purity of consciousness. In particular, one with jaagruta shakti can experience fast with homam. Waking up kundalini is one thing and cleaning it and making further progress is another. Homam is a very effective sadhana. If anybody is interested, a detailed manual and MP3 audio on a 45- minute Mahaganapathi homam procedure can be downloaded from my website (see below). Mahaganapathi is the presiding deity of Mooladhara chakra and hence his sadhana is appropriate for all.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Dear Bhaskar Ji, Namaskaar, Pls. try to understand breathlessness has directly nothing to do with kundalini awakening whether it's by breathing master or by yogi. The problem is, I think, you have studied a lot. Why anahaat w'd be difficult, what is difficult in the world if we are ready and gained elligibility. like till i did write my first program, coding was difficult for me, like till i did drive my bike first time, driving was difficult for me, but when i could do them, it was so easy. regards, Lalit. , " Bhaskar " <bhaskar_jyotish wrote: > > Dear Lalitji, > > Namaste, > > When we are talking of breathless state, it is > understood that we are talking only about > the Yogis ( Not Physical excersise masters > or their students), > neither the persons who can control breath > to appear on TV Shows(But few of these also > qualify for the state we are talking about) > I am talking of those persons who are into > meditative states and while meditating, are > able to reach those states where the > inhalation , retention and exhalation > is stilled , not by force > but by automatic entering deep states > of Dhyana.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Dear Narsimha, Thanx a lot, for keeping my astray ideas in track. In fact, i have not even tried estimate, sometimes, i see it. There are around 3500 - 4000 people in the world with different roles in different communities in different countries to keep the world a cool and happy place to live in. few are already illuminated few are getting ready to illuminate, once mother shown it to me, so, I knew, what u r and yes, it was her wish to pull u here, now, pls. be with us and at ur will, when u feel it's a must, post or respond to us. Just few more yrs and world w'd witness a change in it's thinking pattern. I m worried for tibetan people and naxalites in india. JNU is completely under their negative influence. where is love. regards, Lalit. , " Narasimha Rao " <pvr wrote: > > Dear Lalit, > > > What you said is the essence of knowledge, I had idea but i was > > unable to express it and i m sure i got a person who is needeed in > > this world for this century - > > Honestly, you are overestimating my ability.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Dear Lalitji, I agree I have studied a lot, But You may not know that I do not study without practise. Those who are close to me know that I will not go reading one shloka further, unless I put that it practise. Breathlessness is a pre-requisite and very basic part of the process of Yoga of Kundali awakening which cannot be attained without concentration, and when one concentrates , he automatically is able to still the heartbeat and any movement in the body. One has to practise this to know this. But I presume that I am a novice. I assume you know much more in all such matters, therefore I now leave the floor to you and quit this thread, as it is taking away my time, and also I am coming out with matters which I am not supposed to talk about. Best wishes, Bhaskar. , " litsol " <litsol wrote: > > Dear Bhaskar Ji, > > Namaskaar, Pls. try to understand breathlessness has directly nothing > to do with kundalini awakening whether it's by breathing master or by > yogi. > > The problem is, I think, you have studied a lot. > > Why anahaat w'd be difficult, what is difficult in the world if we > are ready and gained elligibility. > > like till i did write my first program, coding was difficult for me, > like till i did drive my bike first time, driving was difficult for > me, but when i could do them, it was so easy. > > regards, > Lalit. > > > > > , " Bhaskar " <bhaskar_jyotish@> > wrote: > > > > Dear Lalitji, > > > > Namaste, > > > > When we are talking of breathless state, it is > > understood that we are talking only about > > the Yogis ( Not Physical excersise masters > > or their students), > > neither the persons who can control breath > > to appear on TV Shows(But few of these also > > qualify for the state we are talking about) > > I am talking of those persons who are into > > meditative states and while meditating, are > > able to reach those states where the > > inhalation , retention and exhalation > > is stilled , not by force > > but by automatic entering deep states > > of Dhyana.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 i will like to add one line. if u r interested in spirituality listen to some of the pravachans on gita chapter 13 and others on maharajshri.org. swami akhandanand saraswati ji maharaj was a great realised soul and excellent communicator of difficult subjects of sprituality. ramchandani , " Narasimha Rao " <pvr wrote: > > Dear Lalit, > > > What you said is the essence of knowledge, I had idea but i was > > unable to express it and i m sure i got a person who is needeed in > > this world for this century - > > Honestly, you are overestimating my ability.

It may > seem exciting at first as the mind likes these stimuli, but the > bottomline is that that too is as much an illusion as bhooloka is!!! > Specific objects and experiences are not worth developing an > attachment to.
