Meditation: LA093-790319 – Pranic Energy – the Earth Element Balanced by Ether

Yogi Bhajan – LA093 – March 19, 1979 

Sit in easy pose with a straight spine.

Raise the arms with the elbows bent until the hands meet at the level of the chest. The forearms form a straight line parallel to the floor.
The palms face each other and the tips of the thumbs press against the mounds at the base of the mercury finger (pinky). The fingers point up and are extended and joined. Press the fingers of opposite hands together from the fingertips to the first knuckle. The thumb knuckles also press together. Press hard.

The knuckles will hurt, but it will give you a kind of joy and satisfaction.

Sit with the legs crossed or in a chair with the weight of both feet equally distributed on the ground.
Breath:
Inhale in eight equal sniffs, exhale completely through the mouth.

Close the eyes nine-tenths, and look at the tip of the nose.

When exhaling through the mouth, gently purse the lips almost as in a whistle.
Mantra:
There is no mantra for this meditation.
In a class, the leader of the meditation can chant ONG ONG ONG ONG ONG ONG ONG ONG on the eight-stroke inhale.

Practice this kriya for 11 minutes only.

Comments:
If all you understand is dollars, this is a million-dollar therapy. If the earth element in you is strong, and is not balanced out by the ether, you’ll be stuck here. You don’t belong to this earth anyway. You’ve got to go and you’ve got to know where to go and what to do. My idea about going is going with grace. It requires a little bit of work, a little bit of sacrifice, and a little bit of understanding that I AM, I am, my mind is my mind.

Meditation: Perugia 2013 Homework

On December 7, Guru Dev Singh assigned us a homework meditation, LA873.  He also suggested that we could do one additional meditation, LA847, prior to do doing LA873.  It would enhance the effect of the homework meditation.

Lose your handicaps.  Lose all points of identification (ego).
(Transcript courtesy of Hargopal).

There is law of sorrow and law of tomorrow. Those of today who don’t face their tomorrow will have nothing but sorrow. You are not born to suffer. Happiness is your birthright. Soul is inside you. You can’t search it through books. What should you do? Just sometimes sit down and tangle.

The Tale of the Sands

A STREAM, from its source in far-off mountains, passing through every kind and description of countryside, at last reached the sands of the desert.  Just as it had crossed every other barrier, the stream tried to cross this one, but found that as fast as it ran into the sand, its waters disappeared.
It was convinced, however, that its destiny was to cross this desert. and yet there was no way.Now a hidden voice, coming from the desert itself, whispered: “The Wind crosses the desert, and so can the stream.”
The stream objected that it was dashing itself against the sand, and only getting absorbed: that the wind could fly, and this was why it could cross a desert.
“By hurtling in your won accustomed way you cannot get across.  You will either disappear or become a marsh.  You must allow this wind to carry you over to your destination.”
But how could this happen?”By allowing yourself to be absorbed in the wind.”
This idea was not acceptable to the stream, After all, it had never been absorbed before.  It did not want to lose its individuality.  And, once having lost it, how was on to know that it could ever be regained?
“The wind”, said the sand, “Performs this function.  It takes up water, caries it over the desert, and then lets it fall agin.  Falling as rain, the water again becomes a river.”
“How can I know that this is true?”
“It is so, and if you don’t believe it, you cannot become more than a quagmire, and even that could take many, many year; and it certainly is not the same as a stream.”
“But can I not remain the same stream that I am today?”
“You cannot in either case remain so,” the whisper said.  “Your essential part is carried away and forms a stream again.  You are called what you are even today because you do not know which part of you is the essential one.”
When he heard this, certain echoes began to arise in the thoughts of the stream.  Dimly, he remembered a state in which he – or some part of him, was it? – had been held in the arms of a wind.  He also remembered – or did he? – that this was the real thing; not necessarily the obvious thing, to do.
And the stream raised his vapour into the welcoming arms of the wind, which gently and easily bore it upwards and along, letting it fall softly as soon as they reached the roof of a mountain, many, many miles away.  And because he had his doubts, the stream was able to remember and record more strongly in his mind the details of the experience.  He reflected “Yes, now I have learned my true identity.”
The stream was learning. But the sands whispered: “We know. because we see it happen day after day: and because we, the sands, extend from the riverside all the way to the mountain.”
And that is why it is said that the way in which the Stream of Life is to continue on its journey is written in the Sands.

Meditation and Sat Nam Rasayan® Healing Workshop with Hari Nam Singh 11/16/2013 – (Review)

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 Healing in a Non-Dualistic Space.  

 

Workshop Audio:    

In our conventional awareness our direct perception is contaminated with countless references to forms that are external to our experience in the moment.  We compare our experience with those references causing us to separate from the experience and dilute reality.  We tend to make the assumption that the reference is the reality.

Through meditation we produced a state of trance and centered our awareness beyond the confines of time and space.  In the healing exercises we stabilized the aspect of enlightenment  observing the relation and healing from this vantage.
