We held a Meditation and Sat Nam Rasayan® Healing Workshop with Hari Nam Singh at the Healing Heart Center in Hollywood. The topic of the workshop was “Outer Projection”.
In our healing we use the meditative mind to project an intention to heal. We constantly project our intentions in our relations with others and ourselves. How we project and how effectively we project determines to a great degree how well our relationships with ourselves and others are working.
So tonight, I like to share with you something, if you give me eleven minutes of your life, it will be nice, if you can give me thirty-one minutes, it will be better, if we can do it for two and half hours, it will be the best. Right? What is a mantra? Mantra is a sound current created by the mixing of the body and the prana...
So tonight, I like to share with you something, if you give me eleven minutes of your life, it will be nice, if you can give me thirty-one minutes, it will be better, if we can do it for two and half hours, it will be the best. Right? What is a mantra? Mantra is a sound current created by the mixing of the body and the prana.
And smallest mantra can conquer the biggest God.
My father, Guru Gobind Singh said so, did so and shared with us so. So tonight I’ll be merciful to you.
Therefore, the posture is left and right, connect straight, sixty degree, no it is better than others. Right? No, no, don’t misunderstand me, it is better than other, right,
Otherwise you start crying soon. Come on, now angle yourself please, and he is going to put up the tape and pick up the sound and let’s start doing it.
Sixty degrees from the shoulders, upwards, right, making a triangle before your face and putting the index fingers together, please. Go ahead. Ajai, Alai, come on, quick. Hey you are taking time. Eyes straight.
(Tape ‘Ajai, Alai, Abhai, Abai…’ is played in the class)
From the navel.
Bravo.
Feel the Northern Lights.
From the navel, you won’t get a chance.
Steady.
Bravo, bravo, keep up.
Now you are set, keep going. Pain will be humongous, because your body is betraying you and leaving you. Bring the subtle body into play.
Now watch your arc line. Get to the point, now or never.
Win Fateh, your right.
Subtle body is still with you. Penetrate through it.
Put your hand at your heart, keep chanting.
Move the navel and feel the Northern Lights.
Concentrate, concentrate.
Come on, come on, get to it, it’s your time now.
Move the navel, feel the Northern Lights, now.
Inhale deep.
(Tape stops.)
You have achieved a status, in four minutes earlier, than you should have. Now you go into the self, long, Ek Ong Kar, come on.
The class chants: Ek Onggggg… Kaaaaar… Sat Nammmmmmmm….Siri Wahe Guru…
(Chanting continues…)
YB: Inhale deep.
(Chanting stops.)
Deep, hold tight and squeeze every fiber of your being. Exhale. Inhale deep, deep, squeeze, exhale, inhale, deep, let’s bifurcate the energy into every part of our fiber, exhale.
I was given a gift by Hari Bhajan Kaur on the occasion of my birthday. It was a journal which contains verses from the bible, which I would like to share here.
This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.

This version of Mung Beans and Rice, the well known staple, was developed by Dev Atma Suroop Kaur . The recipe originally came from the Golden Temple of Conscious Cookery collection. It was included in From Vegetables with Love, a cookbook by Siri Ved Kaur, which inspired this version.
This version evolved over many years from our repeated use of the BananaFast, a mono diet designed by Yogi Bhajan. It contains an abundance of green vegetables with other inclusions designed to make the experience very attractive as a mono diet (the banana fast specifies the consumption of mung beans and rice for one complete lunar cycle, full moon to full moon) and very satisfying.
Aside from inclusion in the banana fast, we have used this recipe for mono diets lasting three days, two to three times per month. Each batch provides food for three meals daily for three days for two people.
We have done this fast many times.. It has many excellent effects.
Super increased flexibility in the body, particularly the joints
Expansive meditative space, allowing you go go into very deep trance
Profoundly stimulates intuition
I lost about 20 lbs each time I did the diet
and some side effects
It puts some stress on the heart, particularly if you have a very strenuous exercise schedule. Maybe take it easy a little during the fast.
I did not keep off the weight for very long.
Instructions
This diet removes drug deposits from the medulla. It must be started on the day of the New Moon and continued for 14 days until the Full Moon. It is intended to build up worn tissues and adjust the iron, sodium,and potassium factors in the body. This diet takes away the sodium and replaces calcium.
Breakfast: 1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice with the pulp left in, and sweetened with honey. After 1 hour, eat 3 (yes, three bananas). Chew thoroughly, this is very important, and be sure to eat the strings of white which cling to the banana. Immediately after the bananas eat the contents of one whole cardamom pod. The cardamom turns the bananas into liquid and changes the effect of the bananas on the digestive system.
Lunch: 3 bananas followed by one whole cardamom pod.
Dinner: 3 bananas followed by one whole cardamom pod. This diet has its side effects, so be prepared: Yon may feel weak from the lack of customary nervous stimulus. In that case take more orange juice and honey during the day. If constipation is the problem, increase the cardamom pods to a maximum of 3 at a time. Also drink large amounts of hot water periodically. Yogi Tea may be taken along with mis diet You may find yourself feeling excessively emotional and short tempered. If you have a severe reaction to the diet, then discontinue (break the fast according to the following instructions, however, and try it again when your system has undergone more preliminary purification.) The Banana Fast is not recommended for people who have had no previous cleansing purification diets.
After the 14 days of bananas, on the 15th day of the moon, you should take lemon juice in warm water with honey. Then for the next 28 days, you should go on Mung Beans and Rice Diet. This diet is for the kidneys and higher meditation.
The proportions of mung beans to rice is slightly different when you are taking it as part of the Banana Fast, and therefore you should follow the recipe as given here:
Cook 1 part mung beans to 2 parts rice and about 10 parts of water (it is essential to use adequate amounts of water so that the final product is “soupy” and not solid.)
Green vegetables should be cooked right in with the mung beans, and rice (green pepper, broccoli, string beans, zucchii \ etc.)
Turmeric and fresh mint leaves must be cooked in the mug beans and rice (dried: mint may be used if necessary.)
Any fresh fruit may be taken to supplement the diet, and of course Yogi Tea.
No dairy products for these 28 days.
(Note for Women: with this fast the menstrual period may come 2 weeks early, but with minimum food intake the discomfort should be slight)
