Shaktipat > Preparations

 

To prepare for the Shaktipat reception please review these suggestions:

 

1) A sincere and regular daily practice of all of the safeties is paramount.

 

2) Following the instructions as given is also very important.

 

3) Opening and surrendering is very important.

 

4) Fasting if you can safely do so three days before the first day of the

Shaktipat with the third day falling on the first day of the Shaktipat can be

helpful.

 

5) Bare feet on bare ground or bare perineum on bare ground can be helpful in

the weeks before the Shaktipat.

 

6) A consistent purposeful intended unity with all of life and all of creation

is helpful.

 

7) A willingness to let go of the self defined existence and allow God and

Shakti to come to the inner and outer expression of how one lives life is very

beneficial.

 

8) Meditation and praying five or more times a day in the three weeks prior to

the Shaktipat is helpful. Consistency is important with this.

 

9) Being consistently helpful and kind and considerate towards others even if

" you " are under duress is helpful.

 

10) A constant relevance of Kundalini in the waking life i.e. a constant

thinking and thought process around the Kundalini and how it filters into and

manifests into the living of life is very helpful. This must be constant.

 

11) Sexual repression for the three weeks prior to the Shaktipat and to include

the seven days during is helpful.

 

12) An attitude of love for all of life's little wonders. An acknowledgment of

them and an honoring of them. From the whisper of the wind to the sound of a

cricket to the gentle buzzing of bees to the laughter of children and the sight

of a beautiful sunrise and sunset. The feeling of cool water on and in the body

and the feeling of hot water as it warms the body. The radiations of the Sun as

it is felt and the beauty of Sunshine as it lights up a day. The comfort of

darkness and the sounds of the night. The darkness and warmth of the cocoon. The

sense of gratefulness for all things and a surrendering to God and Shakti as

they give from this richness into and upon you.

 

13) Surrender of your self. How " you " wish to direct your life. This must be

surrendered. Surrender of your ego and how it wishes to rule your life.

Surrender of your love and your family ties, friendships and romantic love.

Surrender of your physical, social and mental and emotional and psychological

processes and spiritual processes and how they are manifested and understood by

you. Surrender them into the trust and love of your inner and outer teacher.

This would be Kundalini, The joining of Sacred Female and Sacred Male. Surrender

to God. Surrender these qualities as best you can.

 

I will ask that you surrender any and all guidance's that pertain to:

 

* Your life - And how you live it.(i.e. mental processes, emotional

processes, physical processes, sexual processes, psychological processes, social

processes, spiritual processes etc.

* Intellectual accomplishments.

* Recognition of status in society.

* Other modalities of spiritual seeking.

* Your family- And how you feel and relate to them.

* Your love - emotional, mental, and physical - And how you relate

to it.

* Your spiritual questing - And your directions within it.

* Surrender everything - All of these areas will become engulfed by

the Kundalini.

 

This requires faith and trust and love and complete obedience to the guidance's

that are given. You must not go half way but the full way into these surrenders.

Really feel it and really be sincere as you experience this release of

individual responsibility, taboos, fear and ego driven direction.

 

This is the first leap of faith; there are others.

 

You may come into areas that are completely beyond your understandings and

experiences and you will need to be absolutely and definitely able to give up

your natural desire for fear and self delusions based upon fear. The surrender

of this response is what you must attain.

 

This leads to the training of the ego and giving up its control over your life

which in turn frees you into your expression of the Kundalini.

 

These options will best enhance a Shaktipat. -
