Introduction

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I am a new member of the group.my name is Sanket.i am 42 years old.

I am from India.

I have been blessed with traditional Indian shaktipat 12 years ago and I

meditate regularly.

My purpose of joining the group is I am curious about shaktipat offered here and

also if possible I want to recommend this group to people I know who are

interested in shaktipat.

If someone can tell me whether and how shaktipat offered here is different from

traditional Indian shaktipat it would be helpful.

Two points I found somewhat different I will mention but I am not sure about it

because I do not know about shaktipat offered here fully.

In our tradition shaktipat meditation means once you have received shaktipat

just sit with closed eyes daily as much as possible and let shakti do whatever

she wants to do and just observe as witness.according to our tradition after

shaktipat, shakti is active for 24 hours but minimally- it gets maximum

opportunity to work when you sit with closed eyes.

Is it same here?because I read safeties ,they are simply beautiful but I did not

find ,sitting meditation with closed eyes,as routine to be followed in there.

Also I found some posts mentioning some amount of discomfort due to activated

kundalini,of course I do not know whether they have received shaktipat.in our

tradition such discomfort is not common at all.i personally did not feel any

discomfort at all due to activated kundalini for past 12 years and I have also

not heard anyone else experiencing such discomfort.

I will once again mention that safeties are beautiful and I also try to follow

many things mentioned there spontaneously for last 4-5 years.

Congratulations to you all on a very active and friendly group.

Hi Sanket and welcome. Here we have shaktipat four times a year by Chrism. They

shaktipat is given for a 7 day period with a scatterfield which is a type of

protection to help a person recieve by how much they are praticing the safeties.

Meditation is part of the safeties. We practice the safeties everyday, not just

during the time shaktipat is being given.

 

Some people arrive here with their kundalini already activate and may be

experiencing some of the discomforts you spoke of. Most, once they began the

practice of the safeties are relieved of the problems they are having.

 

Blessings,

Linda

Welcome to the group.

 

As a new member I havent received Shatipat and my kundalini was awakened

spontaneously. It has been quite an uncomfortable experience at times, but I

have come to realise that is only because I had no idea what was taking place

and why.

 

What was initially a very confusing, fear filled, and at times uncomfortable

experience for me seems to have transformed in to one of absolute bliss, beauty

and connection since joining this group and realising that I can trust and

surrender fearlessly to Shakti.

 

Suddenly the universe has become purposeful and feels to be working with me and

through me and talking to me in ways I have never noticed before whereas a few

short weeks ago I felt very confused, and completely out of any sort of flow or

oneness.

 

I wonder if I had had this group or someone that could help me to understand

back in the early stages, whether it would have been an easier process. I am

quite sure it would have been, while at the same time I feel my process so far

has unfolded exactly the way it was supposed to and will continue to do so.

 

Anyway just a few thoughts from my perspective....again welcome to the group.

 

Hugs

Jo

Yes Welcome Sanket,

Sitting in meditation with eyes " up " is best done with eyes

closed. So though it may not have been mentioned directly it is there through

application of the safeties. Blessings to you and welcome again Sanket! - chrism

Sanket,

 

Welcome to our group. Meditation is certainly a practice here, and it is one of

the safeties.

 

Much love,

Hi Sanket,

 

Welcome to the group!

 

I don't know if you will find things different here or not, since I am not

familiar with traditional Indian shaktipat. I imagine that having a tradition of

shaktipat in itself helps lessen the discomfort, as many Westerners struggle

with the " impossibility factor " of the changes Shakti brings, and the resulting

fear and resistance cause much of the discomfort. Since you already have a

framework for understanding the experiences, it makes sense to me that your

opening has gone smoothly.

 

I think as you explore the Safeties, you'll find that meditation is embedded in

them. There is the quiet sitting meditation with hands in gyon mudra and eyes

pointed up to the brow, there is the alternate nostril breathing with mantra,

there is meditation on the Shakti prayer, there is the active meditation of the

Five Tibetan Rites, and there is the mindfulness meditation in constant practice

of gratitude, prayer, forgiveness, tolerance, trust, inner joy, service to

others and intentional relationship with plants as food.

 

I am looking forward to reading of your experiences, and join others in

welcoming you to the group.

 

Peace,

Shaz
