“If you cannot practice shuniya, you cannot be a teacher of Kundalini Yoga. Shuniya means zero. The moment you become zero, then all powers will prevail through you.” Yogi Bhajan

On Oneness and Division – Yogi Bhajan
You know each other, because you were all born in the same time and space as a batch of the third millennium. No matter where we live—we have all come to the planet Earth. You know that you are here. Do you accept that everyone knows everyone? Do you ever go up to someone and say “Hi, you are here, I am here!” without knowing the person’s name? Whenever dealing with people, remember you are here along with everyone else all of the time.
Ego is the very capacity to be finite…
“Ego is the very capacity to be finite. You say, “I am. These are my things. This is my life. Nobody can tell me anything. I’ll do whatever I want to do.” In the end it confines you tremendously and tragically. You give no attention to your destiny and lose perspective.There is only one simple fact…
“There is only one simple fact: On the spiritual path you have to pass through your mind, your power in experience, to reach the soul. But mind is not bound in time and space. So you must create a focus, an identity, a sensitivity to be beyond time and beyond the challenge of space. The soul is always immediate and present. It gives you a flow and makes your presence glow.” Yogi Bhajan (via Ram Anand)
Meditation to conquer time, space and destiny
The total sum of this life and this earth…
“
The total sum of this life and this Earth, of this planet, this cosmos, and this space is nothing but energy. Call it any kind of theory you want, this life is constructed so that the energy of existence is transferred into matter. That matter can also be transferred into energy. Whatever the details of your theory, somehow that essential energy created matter and that matter sustains us through the energy! Life is about that balance and exchange of energy.” Yogi Bhajan

If you do not understand the mind and its reactions…
“If you do not understand the mind and its reactions, your first chosen step will be wrong, and your whole progress will be painful. It takes the same effort and energy to walk either path. The difficulty lies in the nature of the mind and how it grasps things and becomes entranced by feelings and sensation. The problem lies in being subject to time rather than being one step ahead of time.” Yogi Bhajan
(via Ram Anand)
Meditation Kriya for non-reaction
Give this prayer with me…
“Give this prayer with me: God, give me the vastness, the courage so I can be kind. Give me the strength so that I can serve. Give me the wisdom so I can be positive. Give me the nature so that I can be compassionate. I ask Thee in Thy Name to uplift me my soul so I can serve all in Thy Name.”
Yogi Bhajan

Meditation Feel God within you, the kindness in you.
We only forget sometimes to be vast…
“We only forget sometimes to be vast. We become too near and personal and have contempt for teachings, teacher, and the world. Just forgive, excel, and lead with grace to leave a legacy of kindness and compassion.” Yogi Bhajan
(via Ram Anand)
Meditation Have a clear sense of yourself and be able to merge without losing yourself. Experience the vastness within you.
Without vastness and an enriched mind…
“Without vastness and an enriched mind, you entangle in earth and try to have everything and end up with nothing.” Yogi Bhajan
(via Ram Anand)
Any man who creates environments to show clarity…
“Any man who creates environments to show clarity about the causes and effects of the Creator – beauty and bounty in this world – gets merged into infinity.” Yogi Bhajan
(via Ram Anand)
When you surrender your mind to your soul…
“When you will surrender your mind to your soul, then the soul will make God surrender to you. Don’t react in doubt, guilt, or insecurity. This is a truth.” Yogi Bhajan
(via Ram Anand)
Will you die like a little worm…
“Will you die like a little worm, burrowed in the earth, where no one, not even a grandchild, will remember you and have thanks? That is a choice. That is why you encounter the mind. That is why you rise in the twilight to become a huge light!” Yogi Bhajan
(via Ram Anand)
The applied mind seeks out the positive mind’s solutions…
“The Applied Mind seeks out the Positive Mind’s solutions, but limits them to what is directly applicable to your goal. In this way it is strong, extremely simple, and achieves results quickly. It also prevents overloading that can occur if the Positive Mind spins off on its own freely.
When you open your eyes…
“When you open your eyes, don’t open them to see how to be rich. Open your eyes to be able to make people rich. Don’t open your eyes to become wise or to gather knowledge. Open your eyes to make other people wise. Become vast and remember that you are a part of this entire cosmos. It’s a cosmos that should be served by you and the legacy of your wisdom, love, affection, sweetness, kindness and your compassion and caring. Train your mind to relate to your totality and to act without fear.” Yogi Bhajan
(via Ram Anand)
sadhana
“The greatest thing you can do is rise in the early morning and do a sadhana – a practice to energize the body and refine your mind. Most of us rebel and go crazy rather than get up early. There are two special time zones, when you have to enrich your mind: one in the morning, from 4am to 8am, and one in the evening, from 4pm to 8pm. These are natural moments that have a tide of energy within you and without. The sun and Earth have a special relationship and angle at those times that affect your mind and your energy.” Yogi Bhajan

You have fashions and faculties in your mind…
You have fashions and faculties in your mind. You fashion is how you decide to look, act, and be; how you want to project your self into the world. You can be a person of spirit, a person of great mental intellect, a person of brute force, a healer, or a leader. Your faculties are the functions, aspects and projections that give you the abilities.” Yogi Bhajan(via Ram Anand)
