Guest guest Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Greetings all, I am persisting in my practice and will be completing my second 120 day discipline of the ganpattee. Now I have been feeling mentally confused and unclear. I am not sure how much of it is related to the winter and lack of sunlight because for the past years, the winter has been tough on me since I tend to feel quite sleepy. I am not sure if I need to continue. I think though I probably will do another ganpattee because I'm still not happy or happy with my life, although I think I am making progress and am getting happier, although I have a ways to go. I think I will keep doing GP until I achieve that peace and happiness and the outer manifestation of it. Maybe it'll take 3 or 4 or 5 more 120 disciplines, who knows what my karmic predicament is like. I chant Adi Shakti regularly but do not do a formal discipline. I like singing that. I was at the Dasvandh site and the prosperity kriya for this year is the har har har har gobinday. I've done a couple of disciplines last year with it and chant it occasionally. I'm not quite sure yet if I want to do a discipline with that because I do like the idea of just doing the ganpattee and really focusing on it. After all, GP is supposed to make the impossible possible. The reason I am considering maybe using that mantra again is because maybe I need to work on my radiant body? I aspire to be a comedic performer and I had a contest that I was in last night. I didn't get to make it to the next round. I was the only female performer out of 9 performers. I know I did good as I was going to tell another joke and I was asking if I had time which I really didn't and I heard some of the audience members sighing as they wanted to hear me do another joke. I was quite upset I was not one of the 2 selected to advance. I was clearly one of the top 2 in that group and I wondered if they didn't want to let a female advance because it might look like that's the only reason I advanced - but I had talent (mind you, maybe that was not why I advanced but I felt some sexism, but I could be wrong). Part of this industry involves getting rejected and so it's hard to not take it personally. Why are some able to succeed effortlessly while others experience struggle and struggle? Clearly I want to be on the side where success is effortless. The GP is a good kriya since it's good for removing blocks and obstacles but maybe using the gobinday will be a nice complement to it? As well, I think I might add Sat Kriya to my practice. I have had read good things about it and I read it was one of the 3 that YB suggested be done if all his teachings were lost. For me, I am aware that I have some mental fogginess and unclarity and that is what I think I will gain from meditation. I am working on my navel centre as well. This is one of the most important things for me to achieve in my life - material/career success. Maybe it's the Capricorn in me but I must do work that I feel utilizes my talents. anyways, thanks for reading this. I'm sure some of you can see more clearer then I can my own struggles Paula Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Sat nam Paula, I think Sat Kriya is a great one to delve into. It surely will strengthen the third chakra and when you feel strong there, you'll be less shaken by other's opinions of you. But the main reason I am writing is to thank you for inadvertently reminding me about ganpattee kriya. As I began to read your email, and while I read it, I felt a tingling at the tip of my tailbone, saying, " Do this meditation " because what I'm up to right now is grounding my energy, bringing all this spirituality deep into my body, anchoring myself in the Earth plane so I can be fully present and also manifest what I want to manifest, particularly in the area of prosperity. thanks!

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Why are some able to succeed effortlessly while others experience struggle and struggle?Dear Paula, dear all!Sat NamSome wise people say: It´s your intention that matters. I fully agree. It´s a law of the unsiverse that energy flows to the thing you concentrate on, it´s the law of attraction.Working with the subconscious mind is very, very interesting. It has all the power, it is what is governing most if not all people on this planet. It is what we speak of when we say: You have to live a counscious life. That actually means to understand how the mind is working exactly.So what does the subconscious mind do? Two examples: 1. It tells the muscels how to behave in Kinesiology: You cannot hold up the arm if something interferes with your energy. 2. It shows in the patterns of your life when you experience all the same things all the time and all over again and again and again. If you say: I never will have money, I´ll never succeed... You´ll get what you ask for: NO MONEY/ SUCCESS, because you focus an having no money/ success. Same it you say: I don´t want to be fat! The subconsciousness does not get the "don´t". So what it hears is: I want to be fat - and that is what you will gain: weight.Whatever you think with all your might, all you imagination, and with all the power of your subconscious mind comes true - hence the saying: Be careful what you wish for, it might come true. But when you see yourself in the circumstances you actually WANT to be in - then this is what you get. So when you see yourself as a comedic performer don´t forget the laughing and applauding audience in front of you when you see yourself in that position. And of course you get paid tons of money for your performance. Have fun, paint the painting of your live as YOU WANT IT TO BE! Use your imagination ;-) Shift the focus to the happy side of you, no one is only negative or sad or broke or fat or female....... Utilizes you talents - let them shine every day, make yourself laugh with delight! Maybe you would like to use the meditation "I am Iam". If you don´t have it, tell me and I send it to you...Love Blessings - let your soul shine!Siri RamKaur, Berlin, Germany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Greetings Brothers and Sisters, This confuses me: If you say: I never will have money, I´ll never succeed... You´ll get what you ask for: NO MONEY/ SUCCESS, because you focus an having no money/ success. Same it you say: I don´t want to be fat! The subconsciousness does not get the " don´t " . So what it hears is: I want to be fat - and that is what you will gain: weight. Why does the subconscious register the " never " in one set of circumstances yet does not hear the " don't " in another? I have found much more peace and freedom from struggle when I allow myself to be fully accepting of the gifts and 'success' of the present moment with the full understanding that my mind is very capable of placing stumbling blocks on my path, but also aware of the capacity of my mind to learn the lesson of each block without blaming itself for their presence. Peace, Sat Nam, Joan Richards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Sat Nam Joan, As I understand and experience this technology, it is the frequency of ideas such as don't want and never that the mind projects which attracts the same to it. It is a frequency of fear that is picked up by the Universe which results in a flow of that frequency back to you. Stating what you want in postitive terms and vibrating the frequency of gratitude and joy as if this were already your reality is very powerful in attracting your heart's desire.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Sat Nam dear all,What Joan said: (...) I have found much more peace and freedom from struggle when I allow myself to be fully accepting of the gifts (...) is in fact the same what I tried to say - even if my examples confused you, Joan ;-) The "thing" that matters is you intention: Focus on the Positive.In saying "I never will have money" you probably SEE yourself poor. And that´s what is essential. See the gifts and succsesses of the present moment and you´ll never FEEL poor. So your sence of abundance grows and will inevitably show in the "real" life.Was that a little clearer?LoveSiri Ram Kaur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Sat Nam Although I know this is true, my soul has a problem with it. I am not sure if it feels this as manipulative, or that I don't know what I really want(soul level). Something in me is always surrendered to fate, in fact I am a fatalist. I am in the middle of many things in this moment, so maybe can't articulate my ideas properly. I wanted to make a post however, at least so I can post agaain on this topic. It is powerful magic (this technique mentioned below), I am not sure why it has always felt a bit uncomfortable.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 Hello all,well I was probably thinking maybe I'll wait before I do a discipline with the har gobinday as prescribed on the dasvanh site. I do feel that I don't want to distract myself with too much mantras so I'll give myself some more time to work and get into it. I think this has been one of the more effective mantras/kriyas for me as I've always held a lot of tension in my head and I've tried various things to help release that but it is quite difficult. I seem to get the most relief from this and lately have been noticing I yawn during it which means I am relaxing into it which is a good sign. As well I probably have too many mental attachments and this is probably why my head is so tight. I've done sat kriya before but I did it last week and got a headache so I did it again a week later. not sure exactly why that happened but I think I'd like to experiment with that one for a bit to see what happens.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Inspired by a tingling tailbone at the mention of ganpatee kriya when I read Paula's original email on this thread, i have done the kriya a couple times in the past week. The first day I did it, I warmed up then meditated, then did a lay out. during the lay out, my sore tooth in my lower left jaw hurt a little and I wondered if I needed to say something? So I started saying to myself that I loved myself, out loud. I said, I love you Bridget, I love you Guru Beant, and addressed myself by every name or nickname I have ever gone by. In particular, the Bridget part of me ate it up! I felt my lower chakras vibrating in particular and I also cried a little, from the childhood self who felt abandoned by my Mom, etc. I also did a bunch of affirmations that I was safe, called myself beautiful, told myself that God loves me, Mother Earth loves me, gave myself permission to be prosperous, to be sensual, affirmed that I am healthy and strong, and various other things. Certain phrases caused tension to ease in certain areas, even caused a slight adjustment in my neck. This was powerful. So thanks again for the reminder about ganpatee kriya!
