Higher Dimensions, Galactic Wars, Infinite Duality

Yes, space program disclosure is really great, and a great service to mankind, specially to the westerners because they have no idea about Eastern Gods flying on Lotus and all kinds of Air Ships, and Asuras/Demons world. Truth in the form of Mysticism and Mythical stories was lost from their culture when Roman Catholics took over.

And yes it is true that there are High Dimension Beings who are good, and who are bad like Asuras/Rakshasa. And yes, that galactic war is always on. Good beings in higher dimensions have super powers, so do rakshasa/Asuras the bad guys too. So just like the war, conflict exists on earth in human-beings, it exists in all dimensions too.

So what difference does it make where you are and what kind of body/powers you have? Those good celestial beings are always struggling to get more power to do more good, eliminate more bad guys, the Asuras/demons. And those Asuras are in constant struggle to establish their evil kingdom and get more powers.

Where is peace? Where is Total Love? Where is the “end” of agony? Is heaven a perfect celestial dimension to be in?

Is there a dimension where ALL beings are perfectly in bliss always?

Yes, that dimension is beyond all dimensions, it's VOID. Is there an Ultimate Power/Shakti that Humans, Celestials, Asuras all pray to, all look forward to? Yes, VOID. Where is everyone going? Where do Asuras, Angles, Celestial Beings going? What does everyone wants? Ultimate Truth, Void, Paramatma.

The kind of problems that exists in our world, our society, exists in Higher Dimensions too. Like humans fear being robbed or killed, the same fear exists there too. If Lower vibrations of Fear, Anxiety, Sadness, Anger, Guilt, Shame will NOT exists, then that place will be VOID. Because then opposite vibrations of Love, Courage, Pride also do not need to exist. If one exists, the other will. If Love as an Emotion exists, then Fear will exist too.

So this dance of duality is endless, pointless, meaningless. Void is one place, that no-dimension (beyond all dimensions) is one Truth, that Absolute is when/where no duality exists. So what difference does it make in which body form, with whatever powers we face duality? How many different types of dualities we would like to face, experience to realize that ALL DUALITIES ARE PAIN in the ass?

Also, anywhere, wherever duality exists, HOW CAN WE CALL IT HIGHER DIMENSION? What is HIGHER about it?? If it is "truly higher" then it is not a dimension any more. So what is higher in your so called higher dimension?

Bigger Body, Super Natural Powers?

But the bad guys in those dimensions have bigger bodies and super natural powers too, so what is the point? Your opponent will be equally stronger.  They are in fact WORSE than human beings. Despite having super powers are they able to establish total peace and love in their world? No, they can’t.

In human Body we can AIM FOR THE VOID, for the ULTIMATE TRUTH. But neither ants, bugs, dogs, nor celestial beings can aim for that. Too much low density existence, and too much higher density existence, both are USELESS. That’s why sooner or later all celestial beings have to born as humans to finally walk the path towards Void, Ultimate Truth, Self Realization, Liberation/Moksha.

So then when ultimately only Human Body, Mind, Emotions have to take us there, then why waste time? When you go to buy a dress for you, you do not try ALL the dresses of that store, right? You try just few and be done.

So how many different types of Dualities we would need to try to understand that it’s all pointless?

Last, but very very important thing to understand is – NO ONE IS CONTROLLING THIS PLANET OR PEOPLE. Entire Universe works on the basis of KARMA, everyone is bound by the laws of Karma, nothing else is needed, nothing else exists to CONTROL anyone at all.

Those who DO NOT want to take 100% Responsibility of their Actions/Intentions/Volitions only make this statement that “somebody else is controlling people/me to get the bad things done, after all I am good, how can I do bad”. And because they think somebody else is controlling, directing, then they do not need to do anything about it at all, it’s all those witches, evil spirits, demons, draco, reptilians job, so go fix them, don’t fix me.

Such a ridiculous statement this is.

Those who kill other people, rape, loots the money, does robbery, or anything else really bad, or those who have “intentions to do bad”, do not want to take the responsibility TO CHANGE THEMSELVES. Hence they make such statements.

And those who are "fearful" and "accept suffering" in one way or the other, also do not want to take responsibility to change themselves, instead go on blaming destiny/fate, God/Divine.

This is a Highly IRRESPONSIBLE statement to make and Highly Irresponsible behavior.

It truly means, I have no power to change myself. Power to change me, lies in someone else’s hands. This is total foolishness.

EVIL/DEMON/DARKNESS exists within me, and I need to replace it with GOD/TRUTH/LIGHT, no one wants to ACCEPT and say this statement and BE 100% Responsible for not only their Actions, but also for their Intentions, every thought that comes to their mind.

People want to ESCAPE from being responsible and hence BLAME something else, someone else, even God/Divine.

ONLY those who do not get caught-up into this blame game, are actually able to Change themselves, embody the darkness within them, and hence embody the light, and ultimately BE BEYOND LIGHT & DARK.

Karma & Vasanas

When a Separate Soul, “I” comes into existence, it starts with “Creating it’s own world”, in other words it starts INTENDING/INTENTION/VOLITION to Create/Build/Do something. Now, world is full of it’s own energy and if we try to Create/Do anything then that means we are trying to change the “flow” of that energy, we are trying to cause obstruction to natural flow, and divert it. For example if you want to build a house in a forest or any land, then the wind, water has to now flow from sides, elsewhere, and earth and organism inside will have to shift, to everything has to be rearranged, and many things will have to be destroyed. CREATION is a DESTRUCTIVE process. 

That Soul/I-Thought can’t just sit alone on mountain top and do nothing, that’s not it’s purpose of existence. Soul/I-Thought is a disturbance in Pure Consciousness and now it is going to cause further disturbances in order to exist even more densely. So it starts intending and doing. That intention is what we call KARMA. Now there is no such thing is Good Karma or Bad Karma. Because to have an “intention” itself is destructive, because it is BORN out of a Soul/I-Thought which is a Disturbance in Pure Consciousness itself. Deeds/Actions could be categorized as Good or Bad. But Karma can’t be termed as good or bad. Any Good Karma is also destructive elsewhere, in other times and to other groups of people.

Now, when a Soul/I-Thought starts intending and taking actions a chain of Interaction with other beings, planet starts and that interaction, energy exchange goes on. That Soul/I-Thought starts making ripples in the silent Ocean, and if there is a small boat going in that Ocean, then those ripples may topple it upside down, or a medium size boat may be going and may be helped by those ripples. Means that “Energy Exchange” could go right for others and could go wrong to some others. That Soul/I-Thought has a LIMITED VIEW of this whole world/Cosmos, so for a small group, family, society certain things may seem right in that moment, and in long terms something may actually go wrong for many others. That Interaction, Energy exchange is NEVER GUARANTEED to be 100% good, right for ALL, because those Intentions/Karma is coming from a disturbance in Pure Consciousness, a disturbance has no separate Identity, however much it may feel as a Separate Being, an Individual. Now EVERY intention/Karma was done to RETURN BACK to Pure Consciousness and DISSOLVE that Individual/Personal Soul/I-Thought back into Source/Supreme Consciousness/Pure Consciousness. That’s the whole-sole, ONLY purpose of Intending/Doing any Karma at all. But a Soul/I-thought doesn’t want to be done so soon and be back, merged back into Source and Not Exist anymore. It wants to go on and on and on and on and on until it reaches it’s WEAKEST Self. Until that Illusion really sickens that Soul so much, it wants to keep going until all Fake Self Identities starts suffering their own existence. Now when a Soul/I-Thought did the FIRST Karma, Intended for the first time, the First Karmic Lesson was “You are not a Body”, but Soul/I-Thought DENIES it, and keeps on taking body lifetime after lifetime, over and over again, this body and that body, stationary body like plants/trees, flying body like birds, and what not… now finally however many bodies it has taken “that many times” it has DENIED the FIRST basic Karmic Lesson which is that “You are not a body”. This DENIAL creates a REVERSE FALSE TRUTH, it Cements the FAKENESS that “Yes you are a body”, an animal body, bug body, tree body, or human body and that you are somebody. Now this is a Vasana. Vasana is – You are a Body. Karma/Intentions were born out of this Vasana now and more and more Intentions/Karma it keeps in doing, and creates even more Vasanas. Like 2^nd Vasana is – You can love only OTHERS…. Which is a DENIAL of SELF-LOVE (Self = Soul/Pure Consciousness). Now it gets into relationships, look for love from Mother, Father, Friends, Siblings, Gurus and in order to get it, extract this love, that Soul/I-Thought creates as many “I-Identities” as possible and the drama goes on. ABSENCE of SELF-LOVE is an Existence of the Vasana of “Loving others, getting into relationships, loving thy neighbors…and loving all that exists outside of you” and then concept of Kindness, concept of Good deeds, being good human, being good social person, being good citizen are born.

If everyone was in SELF-LOVE, no separate Identity would have existed, no boundary would have existed and then there was no concept of relationships, marriages, divorces, kindness, compassion, hindu, muslim, countries. All these exists because “opposite of it existed in the first place, due to ABSENCE of SELF-LOVE. So this whole DUALITY & DRAMA wouldn’t have existed at all. Entire Cosmos would have been very different.

Now you see Vasana is an Opposite of Karmic Lesson which is about going back to Source. If you are NOT learning the Karmic Lesson that means an Opposite pattern exists in you. If you are not learning the Karmic Lesson of Self-Love, then that means a pattern that “Love is given/taken from others, means the Idea of Others, means a separate “I/Me/Mine exists”.

Now what does this Vasana wants you to do? Keep this Vasana intact, means let it keep on strengthening itself by you running after love, relationships and go on and on… so that’s what a Vasana wants you to do… it’s just looking for “it’s own existence”, “it’s own strengthening” through fulfilment, one may find a loving relationship for sometime, one may find something to love and live for, for sometime and that’s how a Vasana is “expressed, fulfilled”. Everyone who is having marriage, loving relationships, goes on loving people around themselves … what is it that we are seeing? We are seeing an expression of Vasana that is - “Loving others, getting into relationships, loving thy neighbors…and loving all that exists outside of you” and that Vasana through that person/soul/i-thought constantly looks for fulfilment and continuous expression.

To summarize it all – Continuous Denial of a Karmic Lesson is Vasana. Vasana forces one to Intend more and more, take more actions for it’s fulfillment and chain of karma goes on and on. Now while fulfilling one or more Vasanas within us, we go on accumulating pains, lifetime after lifetime of pain. NOT BEING ABLE TO FULFILL A VASANA CAUSES SUFFERING. A Vasana of “loving others, separate me” when FAILS to fulfill itself CAUSES TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF SUFFERING. Means when a person gets no one to love around, doesn’t get love in return, or gets betrayal in return that’s when we feel so damn painful. So what caused pain?? Others?? Other people, relationships? NO! NO! NO! UNFULLFILLED VASANA is what gave us tremendous pain. Now, because there is “SUFFERING”, there is a concept of “Wounds” and there is a concept of “Healing”.

But what are we healing? What pain? Pain of not being able to RETAIN OUR ILLUSION OF FAKE SELF. WHAT NEEDS HEALING? WHO NEEDS HEALING? Vasana needs healing??? Karma needs healing?? No! All these things are useless to even bother about 😊! Pain happens to FAKE SELF, Healing is needed by FAKE SELF… what a drama? 😊!

Pain is FAILING to Learn the Karmic Lesson. Pain is unfulfilled Vasana. So when that pain happens, simply learn the Karmic Lesson. Now that that Soul/I-Thought has come so so far away from the REAL/TRUE Self that learning that Karmic Lesson takes time, and that time gap is full of Suffering, which is nothing but crying for unfulfilled Vasana. That’s why we say that Pain/Suffering is GOOD, BEST for you, because they are the SIGN OF UNFULFILLED VASANA and that means when MANY TIMES, GOOD ENOUGH NUMBER OF TIMES a Vasana has failed to fulfill itself, then you do stand a chance to TURN AROUND AND GO BACK TO SOURCE, that means one stands a chance to Now finally look into the Karmic Lesson and try to learn it. In other words existence of PAIN WITHIN US is a SIGN that we are not living in Real World, that our I-Thought and all identities are FAKE, and have created an Illusionary World, and that I-Thought/Fake Identities in us go on suffering their own fake existence and drama.

SOUL IS WHOLE, not broken then HEALING WHAT? HEAL WHOM? WHO SUFFERED? FAKE YOU! Who did Karma? Fake You! Who had Vasanas? Fake You! Fake = I Thought and tens of other Identities as Mother, Father, Human Body, sibling, employee, woman, Indian, Japanese citizen…and so on.. All Suffering, All Pain happens to those Fake-Selves. That doesn’t means we go on denying pain, we do not acknowledge. Because till the time that Pain exists, that Fake Identity to whom that pain is happening, will exist. So that is why we need to Heal, that is why we need to CALM DOWN that FAKE IDENTITY so that it becomes “less dramatic” and that gives some breathing space for REAL SELF to arise and come out, that is why need to Heal people. Healing means helping them “see the truth”, helping them “see the drama of their Fake Identities”.

In a nutshell everyone need to “Learn” how to get rid of Vasanas, how to identify them, need to know the opposite Karmic Lesson and try to learn it and when there are no Vasanas, means all Karmic lessons have been learnt, then one is TRULY EMPTY and can Behold the Infinity.

Dementia - Spiritual way out

Questioner - Is there a Spiritual way out for the people suffering with Dementia? I work with Aged Care and many here are patients with dementia and their condition is so serious and it all seems so painful that at times I wish death for them, so they can be relieved from their suffering.

Recently I was asked this question. I answered it in the context at that moment. But the real big picture of that, I thought should be explained in detail.

For those who do not know, Dementia is a medical condition which leads to "forgetfulness", where the sufferer forgets about an event or something small initially and slowly it starts getting worse and a day comes when one forgets even about themselves as to who they are, where they are, and who are the people around them and everything else that is "present" in this life right now, and they are finally "absent". In a nutshell dementia leads to memory disorders, personality changes and impaired reasoning. It's an "absence of awareness" and awareness is always about "being present" and "not absent from present".

Now, if from the perspective of an Enlightened Being you see, then the whole world (except other Enlightened/Self-Realized Beings) is suffering from Dementia. Isn't it? You have forgotten "who" you really are? You have forgotten your own divine nature. You have created so many personalities, faces, identities within you, and you go around in life really confusing yourself with one or more of those identities at any given point of time. And you go around even giving reasoning for their existence. Isn't it? You go on suppressing all pains and fear within, until your brain really becomes numb from all that. You hide so much within and put up a face to not show anything "real" to the world, to the family, friends and people all around you and even to yourself.

Some of you have reached the "height" of this suppression, and will manifest "dementia" as a disease sooner or later. Emotional Suppression when reaches it's height in anyone, where a person goes completely in denial of the "present", the reality, the way life is now, and they start shutting down themselves, they start cutting themselves off from their current reality and there comes a time when it becomes permanent state, and modern science labels it as Alzheimer, Dementia and what not.

So, what can be done with you? Can something be done?

If a plant has droopy leaves, looks very weak, starved then can it be revived? Yes! How? By giving what it truly needs, giving unconditionally. By giving water, fertilizer, rich soil, sunlight/shade whatever that it needs, not what you want to give it. But once the plant is dead from the root can it be revived? No! You can try though.

Same is with you all. If forgetfulness seems to happen frequently, if you have suppressed yourself a lot in life, if you have too much pain, fears, guilt, shame within, if you are emotionally wounded then yes you can be revived. You need "Spiritual Healing" and you can become the "Real You", you can "Invoke the Real You", you can walk your spiritual journey, a journey to find the "real you" and you can find that eternal source of joy, bliss, peace, silence within.

Once dementia has taken its roots within you, once your state of memory loss has become almost a permanent state in you, then there is almost a negligible chance of bringing you back. One can always try though whenever they see such a person aware enough some day. In those moments when a sufferer is having "awareness of present" then one can try, but since any healing actually requires longer period of such awareness, so it's really hard to bring out any positive tangible results in a short amount of time when the "awareness exists".

Everyone around is busy playing around in life thinking they are Mother, Father, Employee, Son, Daughter, Owner of this and that, this person or that person then "what to do" to bring these people back to their Divine Nature? They need someone who can remind them of truly who they are. Someone who can help them realize their True Nature. They need a GURU, who can dispel the Darkness that surrounds them within and without. A Guru who is in acceptance of the deteriorated condition and can hold the sufferer in Unconditional Love.

In the same way, if you are around any person suffering from Dementia, Alzheimer or similar problem, try to first be in acceptance of their condition, hold them, show them "Unconditional Love", because Love heals, and then try to remind them of who he/she is. Your efforts towards reminding them should be completely devoid of any expectations, only full of Total Love (Love that comes out from the "Integration, Wholeness" of the Being), unconditional love.

When an Enlightened Being/Guru looks at the world suffering due to their forgetfulness, they do not wish death upon them, because death is "not the end of suffering". Such deep Karmic Imprints go with the Soul, are not just part of body, hence even when one leaves the body, that forgetfulness will not leave the Soul and the suffering will continue. You have to deal with life, and all the drama, pains, fears, wounds, guilt, shame and everything else while you are alive and aware and are in your body. Death is not the solution to anything.

Leaving the body (what usual people call death) is not the way out, Only Enlightenment/Self-Realization (Death of False Self) is the "end of all suffering", is the "way out".

Last but not the least, "why are you around such patient/sufferer?" Why life has given you such people around? Ask yourself that. Because your outer world is the reflection of your own inner world.

You are around such person/people, because life is trying to show you, teach you - Did you also forget who you truly are? Did you forget your own true/divine nature? Does remembering that you are a Male/Female, Brother/Sister, Spouse, Child, Parent, employee, owner really enough to "end your suffering within"? Does remembering "external relationships" really is of any use? Do you remember your relationship with yourself? Have you forgotten the Ultimate Truth about you?

If Yes, then what are you doing to take a U-Turn? What are you doing to fix it? You have your awareness alive, if you are still not using it, then why pity a dementia patient? If despite having legs you are not choosing to walk then why feel pity for those who have no legs? If despite having all means you are not pursuing a journey to find the "real you", "true you", then why feel painful for those who have forgotten that they were Mr/Mrs XYZ, brother/sister, teacher, spouse, friend of ABC?

Shouldn't you be saving those tears for yourself?

Please do some serious thinking & contemplation.

Love & Blessings

Kriya Yoga/Kundalini & Vasanas/Sanskaras/Karma

Kriya Yoga not just awakens the Kundalini, but helps reach that Kundalini Shakti/Energy to Sahasrara Chakra (7^th Chakra). And it is possible only because Kundalini energy when starts risings, clears out all blockages/barriers/Maya/Vasanas/Illusions/Ignorance that we have in any Chakra major or minor. Kriya Yoga is that Technique/Practice/Sadhana which shoots the Kundalini Shakti upwards. You have seen Fire, right? The Tendency of Fire is rise up, while the tendency of Water is to flow down. Kundalini Shakti is like Fire and it’s natural tendency is to rise up.

But when there are blockages/issues/Maya/Vasanas/sanskara/samsara anything it encounters, it clears it up, it will bring it out and will suddenly focus your attention towards that issue which you need to release and let go. Now to clear the issues/Vasanas/sanskara’s FASTER, we not only keep doing Kriya Yoga, but we also address those issues/Vasanas/sanskaras at mental and emotional level, we let go, we surrender, we heal. We attack the problem from ALL sides, not just the energy side.

Those who don’t do Kriya Yoga, or any Spiritual Sadhana/Practice they have to wait perhaps a lifetime for Vasanas/Sanskaras/Unconscious to show up ACCIDENTALLY (that is how it feels to them) in life, so they can learn or do something about it. That’s a normal cycle of Karma. But for Kriya Yogi, Karmic Cycle is going at Super Sonic Speed, because you have Consciously Chosen to FINISH ALL KARMA (Unconscious Patterns/Sanskaras/Maya). Once Kundalini Shakti starts showing you all Vasanas/Sanskaras, and you remove them mentally, emotionally and let go, surrender, heal then you move forward and slowly through this process Chitta is Super Clean, Crystal Clean.

So now there are two things to understand, that Kriya Yoga/Kundalini Shakti will “bring out (make it Conscious)” a Sanskara/Vasana and you will be able to see it, focus on it, pay attention to it, see it happening in your life, playing out in your life. Now there are TWO ways to Clear it. First one is a slow process that you keep doing Kriya Yoga so that some day it is burned up and gone, it will take Years to burn One Strong Sanskara. Second and faster way is, to understand it mentally, emotionally and then let go, surrender and heal. The faster you surrender to “what it is trying to teach you”, the faster you can “let go”. The faster you can “let go”, the faster you will “heal”.

See, ultimately you have to TRANSCEND Mind & Emotions, but “Desires”, deep, hidden desires which are often wrapped in Love, Compassion and Tolerance, will stop you, will force you to Hold On to this, that and so much nonsense, these desires on the name of responsibility, Kindness, Caring will NOT let you go. And Desire is EXACT OPPOSITE of Self-Realization. And Desire is such a complex thing, wrapped in so many beautiful, humanitarian Costumes that it’s almost disguised and very hard to see, catch, understand and let go.

Transcending Mind and Emotions demand GREAT WILL POWER. A Very Strong Will Power that says “I WILL LET GO OF ANYTHING THAT IS A BLOCKAGE IN MY PATH OF SELF-REALIZATION, may it be a Desire to become Self-realized Guru, or Self-Realized Being itself. Self Realization is an exact opposite of becoming anything whatsoever, doing anything whatsoever. So through Self Realization if you are trying to become something/anything then it’s not going to happen. Self-Realization is complete annihilation, it’s an Opposite of any desire/doing/doer.

Before Self-realization I had no idea what it is, what happens, and how it works. For me IT WAS DEATH. And our Human Mind only has One Perception of Death, which is like how we have seen other people die all our life which is by leaving our body. So mind cannot perceive or know any other way of dying. Self-Realization was happening to me First & Only time, it’s not something that happens every now and then so I had any experience of it, and I did not have any Guru or anyone around to tell me what is this crazy thing happening to me. So all I could perceive it was as Real Death, like how normal people die.

Now, IMAGINE my Situation. I knew that I was Dying, Death is happening to me and I WAS READY TO DIE, I WAS READY TO GIVE UP MY BODY, as for me Death meant giving up body, like how normal people die. IMAGINE that in those days/weeks of Experiencing Death, NOTHING COULD STOP ME, NOTHING COULD SHAKE MY WILL POWER, not even the presence of my son, my sister, or anything at all. I actually gathered all my financial information, made a file, and cried and explained all that to my sister, because my mind did not know that the Death that is happening to me, is not about giving up my body. This Death is a TRUE DEATH, where an Individual, where “I” is GONE, Merged with Shiva/Unmanifest FOREVER.

Just through the FAITH that I had in my Heart, I jumped into the UNKNOWN, without thinking about any positive or negative Consequences. Consequences/Results did not matter to me. Because all results/consequences are TIED TO THE DESIRE in us. So I was 100% DESIRELESS. The one who is completely desire-less, even to the extent whether to even have any desire or not, is in 100% surrender to “what is happening NOW” and let it be. All this requires a Strong Will Power, which comes from 100% Faith, Doubtless Faith, Unshakeable Faith in your heart that “whatever happens, or is happening is FOR YOUR OWN GOOD”. This is not just for mentally understanding and emotionally feeling, it is LIVED. This fact has to be LIVED.

Now, you can contemplate and see within yourself as to what seeds of desires are still there, deep, hidden, wrapped as something else and you have to let them all go. Let it all go.

Blessings to all,

Understanding Desirelessness

From time to time many Spiritual Masters/Gurus/Practitioners reach out to me, and they are awakened at some point of time, and now are looking for Self-Realization.

Based on conversations with many of them, a central theme of achieving desirelessness became prominent, as many of them were struggling with it.

This is to explain it little more.

When I talk about Giving up Responsibilities/Activities, I am not asking you to give up, let go of your students. I am talking about that “Guru” in you who is connected to your “I” right now, that Guru has to go away. Either the Ultimate Divine lives as You, or that Current Guru lives as You, the choice is Yours! Now, how you want to let that go, that is up to you.

It is not about those students that you have, or any other human/being that is around you through any other relationship. Its only about YOU and ONLY YOU. You have to release ALL that is Living as You right now, within You right now, because all those roles that you are playing, all that you are right now, belongs to that “I” that you have. All those roles/responsibilities/identities are “attachments” to your “I”. And all that is a blockage on your path to Self-Realization. 

We never surrender humans/relationships around us, we only surrender, let go of our attachments to those Images/False-Self images that lives to fulfill those roles/identities/relationships. We cannot ever surrender anything that never belonged to us. No humans, no souls, no one else’s “I” can ever belong to our own “I”. True relationship between two “I” is NOT possible. Because those two “I” are Illusion/Maya/False-World, hence the relationship between them is also an Illusion/Maya/Ignorance/False-World of happiness, unhappiness, pleasure, pain, pride/vanity, prejudices and so on. Hence the “I” as “Guru” never belonged to the “I” as Students/Disciples. There is no real connection. Then we can let go of our Ideas of sense of responsibility, feeling of responsibility.

I did not give up my son, I could not ever give up my son, because he never belonged to me, he belonged to the same Divine, whom I belonged to, He is NOT my creation. My Creation was that “Mother” whom I created, nurtured, polished since my son was born. I gave up that Mother in me. If that Ultimate Divine Mother has to reside within me, then I have to give up being mother to just one human/soul, my son. I gave up my attachment that I had “with that mother” in me, which appeared as if I have attachment to my son. When I was letting that Mother go away in me, it felt as if I am abandoning my son. But then I could see that it’s that Image that is dying, it’s part of “I”, and that “I” always makes us feel as if we are abandoning others. That ”I” never understands that NOTHING ever belong to it ever. It makes us feel as if we are attached to “other humans”, but in fact we are attached to the IMAGE of “I” in us, which interacts with other humans. That Image we have to let go.

All that you are as of now has to go away, all that you wish to be as of now has to go away! That’s the beginning of Desirelessness. End of Desirelessness is Self-Realization. In between this beginning and end is tough path of maintaining the desirelessness, living in 100% surrender to “what is happening NOW”, Being in that Process, Being in that Dance of Divine Shakti that is going to takeover you. Let it takeover, do not stand in your own way by holding onto anything that you are right now, and anything that you wish to be.

Blessing to all,

Kriya Yoga/Kundalini, Pachakoshas and 4th Dimensional Body

Let me explain you little more about Kriya Yoga through which we awaken and arise our Kundalini Shakti.

First body layer/dimension – Annamaya Kosha – Physical Body

Second Body layer/dimension – Pranamaya Kosha – Shakti/Energy Body
Third Body layer/dimension – Manomaya Kosha – Mental Body
Fourth Body layer/dimension – Vigyanamaya Kosha – Psychic/Intuitive Mind/Emotional Body
Fifth Body layer/dimension – Anandamaya Kosha – Bliss/Soul
Sixth Body layer/dimension – Intermediate State from where one jumps into Unknown, Pure Consciousness, Primordial Shakti, Adishakti, All Gods/Devas
Seventh Body layer/dimension – Cosmic Body
Eight – No body, No Dimension, Unknown, Unmanifest, Shiva, Liberation/Moksha, No “I”, Buddha, Nirvana

Now you see, second body layer, Pranamaya Kosha means Energy Body BINDS all the bodies together and holds our existence, our conscious and unconscious parts together. Unconsciousness/Vasanas/Karma resides in ALL first 4 body layers. Fifth body/dimension becomes Conscious, fully 100% only when there is no Unconscious part (Karma/Sanskara/pattern) is there in our first 4 bodies.

Kriya Yoga increases our energy/Shakti so that whatever is there in First, Third and Fourth can become Conscious and also so we can stay more and more in Dhyana to give power to our Soul/5^th Body, so it can become fully conscious. 

Shakti is powerful and can SHOW you your Vasanas, Mental/Emotional Patterns, Desires, Karmic Lessons, but if at Mental/Emotional level, means if at your 4^th Dimensional Level you HOLD ONTO those Vasanas, Mental/Emotional Patterns, Desires, FAIL to Learn Karmic Lessons, then SHAKTI WILL LET YOU DO THAT, that’s what we call Free Will. You are divine yourself, and if you are choosing to hold onto something then it will let you.

Because your any TWO body layers will NOT FIGHT with each other. Your left hand will not beat up your right hand. Your left kidney will not attack your right kidney. Shakti in you listens to your Mind/Emotions. That means Mind/Emotions (4^th Dimensional Body) is MORE POWERFUL than your Second/Energy Body. Trees/Rocks/Rivers all have First(Physical body) and Second (Shakti/Energy body), but they do not have 3^rd and 4^th Dimensional body. Animals have 3^rd Dimensional Body, but they do not have 4^th Dimensional Body which is fully conscious/functional, instead their 4^th dimensional body is full of Unconscious Karmic Patterns. Hence they cannot have desire to seek Moksha/Liberation/Nirvana. All that they can seek is safety, food, reproduction. So their 4^th dimensional body SERVERS their Lower 3 animalistic chakras, and our 4^th dimensional body serves upper 3 chakras, if/when it becomes Conscious enough to do so. Strong/Conscious 4^th Dimensional body makes people experience divine through music, art, any creativity, even more conscious 4^th dimensional body, seeks Ultimate Truth, Liberation only, because it becomes aware of painful Death/Birth/Rebirth cycle.

So Shakti is YOURS, Your Second Body layer/Pranic Shakti/Kundalini Shakti is YOURS, exactly in the same way the POWER of 3^rd and 4^th Dimensional Body is YOURS too. You can use second body layer to Transcend Body/Mind/Emotions (1^st, 3^rd, 4^th Dimensional/Body layers), but only if your 3^rd/4^th body layers are WEAKER (More Conscious/Less Karmic/Unconscious Patterns) than your Second (Shakti/Energy Body layer). Those who are like this, are actually BHAKTAS and follow Bhakti Marg. Those who have STRONG 3^rd/4^th Dimensional Body (Jnana Path), means those who have learnt a lot, know a lot, have strong Karmic Patterns, Unconscious Patterns, Vasanas, Sanskaras in their Mind/Emotions, for them Shakti can be used to SHOW all Vasanas, but Shakti will NOT go against their Mind/Emotions/4^th Dimensional Body layer. Higher the body layer/dimension, stronger is it’s power/role in life/Self-Realization, and stronger the kind of Vasanas/sanskaras/blockages that it can pose.

So mentally and emotionally you cannot hold onto Vasanas/Unconscious Karmic Patterns/Desires, and think that Shakti will INVADE, go AGAINST your Mind/Emotions and create a Conflict Within. When this happens, people actually become MAD, INSANE, Physically, Mentally disabled.

I was a Kriya Yogi in past life, in this life I started with Kriya Yoga, but soon realized that my Sanskaras/Vasanas/Karma are left now only within my Mental/Emotional body, and hence I walked that path which I call “Echoflection” now, and have created a course for others. Because in this time when global shift is happening, people already have awakened Kundalini and Kriya Yoga can help them SHOW/REVEAL their Vasanas/Sanskaras/Unconscious Patterns that reside in their Mental/Emotional body layer, but then they have to Learn to Surrender to what LESSONS those Sanskaras/Vasanas/Karmic patterns are trying to teach you, and you have to let go. Surrender to Shakti means, LET THE SHAKTI FLOW, REMOVE THE MENTAL/EMOTIONAL BLOCKAGE/VASANA/SANSKARA.

You are physically complete, your physical habits of sleeping/snoring/eating/drinking/smoking/sex are NOT the hindrance in your Self-Realization. Your Mental/Emotional patterns/unconscious parts/Vasanas/sanskaras are the hindrance in your self-realization. Your Fight/Effort is towards 4^th Dimensional Body. You have to transcend your 4^th Dimensional body. You have ALREADY transcended your Physical Body, you are able to do all Kriyas, soon through Kriya Yoga you will INCREASE your Energy/Pranic Shakti a LOT, and because you are doing Kriya Yoga, that in itself means you have transcended your second/energy body layer.

So then what is left????

3^rd & 4^th Dimensional (Mind/Emotions) body layer is what you have to Transcend now.

Hope this helps you understand that Sanskaras/Vasanas reside in all 4 body layers and hope it gives you insight into your situation, and helps you understand that Shakti listens to our Mind/Emotions.

There are MANY people around the World who are able to take their Kundalini Shakti all the way to 4^th, 5^th and 6^th Chakra. But then they mentally/emotionally HOLD onto that ENERGY/SHAKTI, because going BEYOND that means GIVING UP ALL SENSE of I, giving up all SENSE OF ALIVENESS that comes from EGO. So their Mind/Emotions using Desire as Vehicle, uses that SHAKTI for EGO’s play purpose, and STOPS them from Self-Realization.

If you are doing Kriya Yoga, it is important that you understand that you should NOT hold Shakti, you should NOT stop Shakti like that for Ego’s play purpose and hang in the middle somewhere.

Bless you all,

How are some people truly Magnetic, Charismatic?

Each one of us has had a moment when we were left speechless by the magnetism and charisma that someone showed and it just amazed us. Transparent, fluid kind of persona that someone exhibited swept the floor beneath the feet. It felt so cozy, comfortable around that person. Just in few moments, there was nothing else except that person when he/she was around. It felt so easy, so cool to talk about almost anything & everything. It was as if such a person absorbed you completely. In an instant, such a person leaves the long lasting impact.

Here I am not talking about a physically beautiful or attractive person, instead of the one who is truly Magnetic and Charismatic. I am also not talking about first sight love or falling in love moments, I am talking about the true magnetic attractiveness, the undefined pull that someone has.

It's hard not to notice that something is significantly different in such magnetic, charismatic person. What is that element which exuberates so much pure life? INTEGRATED ENERGY!

Yes, we all are nothing but energy. Most of you have very disturbing, segregated, and split energy. You "feel" one thing, you "think" another. You "say" one thing, you "do" another. Your energy is split into emotions, thoughts, speech, and action differently for one single thing. For example - You may be feeling "low/sad", but since you are in between people you are trying to "think happy thoughts" and you are saying "happy" sentences, talking lightly exactly opposite of how you are feeling and since you are in between the people, through your "actions" you might be putting up a happy show. Emotions are pulling your energy "down", thoughts are trying to pull your energy "up", your speech, your actions are pulling your energy "left" and "right". Even though you might be saying "you like this event/gathering very much, you are feeling completely otherwise. Oftentimes in life, you feel like saying big "No", but a "Yes" is coming out of your mouth. This is called people-pleasing because you cannot handle how you feel within after you say "no" to someone or something. Some of you stay in confused/indecisive state for a long, as it takes really hard work to find out "what exactly do you want? And you do not want to look within to find out that. Some of you push your feelings or hurt and pain deep within you and instead of facing them, you bury them by doing tons of useless activities and living the mundane way. These are some of the ways to keep your energy disturbed and segregated. Imagine if your feelings/emotions, thoughts, speech/action were all different size wheels and all the time these wheels are rotating in different directions causing friction with each other. This friction is what causes "stress/tension" in you.

When you stay in such a segregated state for months, years then your energy starts showing it, it becomes your VIBE, your "Energy Atmosphere" or "Energysphere" (as I like to call it) that you are transmitting, broadcasting the whole time.

Your vibe/energysphere becomes "negative/very disturbed". Then after that no matter how well dressed you are, how groomed you are, how much pleasing smile or face you have your vibe, your energy says it all. With anyone you meet your vibe reaches them, meets them "before" you physically meet them. Your vibe, your energy communicates "louder" than your dress-up, your makeup, your groomed face, your perfume and that your body language ever can. 75% of the people in this world are sensitive to this vibe/energy of other people, they recognize others by their energy. You do not have to speak a word, or make any gesture or display body language at all and still, they will know exactly how you are feeling or what is your energy/emotional state as of now and if it is positive or negative.

Now the one who is most magnetically attractive doesn't have his/her energy split or segregated. What one feels is what one thinks and speaks and does. When your Thoughts, Emotions, and Actions are synchronized with each other, are in alignment with each other then there is no friction within and energy stays "Integrated". This integration of energy brings peace within, brings calmness to the personality, it is what makes one exuberant and one shows up like a "Pure Joyful Life" and spreads Charisma like fragrance all around. Such people are true to themselves and true to the world. They simply transmit a "Clear Broadcast" of who, what and how they are to the "Universe".

Magnetic, Charismatic people's energy broadcast in one single moment is not going out differently in all the directions, they are not transmitting so many confused frequencies to others, to the Universe.

What if a radio channel or TV channel starts transmitting many frequencies at the same time, how will you tune into it then? How and what you will catch as a signal? There will be all kinds of mixed signals. What to make out of it? What to understand from that? How can this world, or any other person take you, understand you or interpret what you are saying or trying to do since you are transmitting confusing frequencies all over the spectrum? You may be saying one thing but your energy speaks a whole different truth, then how can someone believe you? How can others trust you? And you wonder why no one understands you? Because you do not understand yourself, you are not transmitting the signals of "clarity within" and you go on blaming the world.

You are not transmitting the signals of "Peace within", "Flowing Life within", "Joyful within", "True within" and you wonder why your "without/outer world" is so different and in opposition to your inner world. It's like thinking and ordering Pizza but getting a Burger. Your energy signature is screaming out loud burger baby. You wonder as to why constantly you are facing challenging and difficult situations and people? Because you are transmitting the signals of "challenged within", "cloudy/muddy within". You wonder why you always meet broken, loveless people? Because your energy is shouting out loud to the Universe as "broken & loveless within".

People and the Universe knows you by your Energy Signature! Universe delivers not what you keep on thinking or asking or praying for, it delivers exactly what and how your energy signature is.

Live your TRUTH. Synchronize yourself within.

Simply transmit a clear broadcast of who you are to the Universe!

Dark side of Meditation!

Recently a friend from the USA sent me a news article about a young lady Megan, 25 years old committing suicide after 10 days of a Meditation retreat through which she got the memory back of one of her past life in which she did something bad. Her last note was - That knowing about her own deeds she cannot live with herself anymore and she is very sorry about taking her own life. This news made my friend question if there really is a dark side of Meditation?

There is a dark side of doing meditation, there is a dark side of being a Soldier, there is a dark side of being a doctor, there is a dark side of pretty much "being human". That is why those who do not have the courage, do not meditate or walk spiritual path, do not join Army, Navy or Airforce, do not become a doctor and even if they do; they become victim of their own weaker self and either get into different types of addictions to numb themselves or when they can't deal with the pain within they commit suicide. It's a very sad state of affairs, a bitter truth.

In a nutshell, there is a dark side to being human and one needs a hell lot of courage to deal with one's own humanity, one's own deeds & past.

Meditation and Spiritual practices are a way to bring Unconscious to Light, Learn the lesson from our past deeds/mistakes, Let Go of the emotional knots, grudges, Heal the Pain within and Move On, Evolve! Meditation is a process of Real Evolution, where one not only evolves physically but also Emotionally, Mentally and in Etheric ways. All experiences, knowings during meditation have a tangible impact on us and that's how we are Transformed.

Meditation, Spiritual Practices bring back ALL one ever did and ALL that one ever was. It also Empowers the person to deal with it, handle it, and learn from it, instead of taking a drastic step of committing suicide. It's not the question of How many Spiritual Seekers really commit suicide? And how many of those who are not into any kind of Spiritual practices or meditation commit suicide? The point is whether one is seeking the Ultimate Truth, or Material World/Wealth or Love when it goes beyond one's ability to deal with the life some of them take such a decision while others survive dark, difficult times and be the warrior in life. Those who come out of such darkness actually can help others, teach others, share their wisdom with others.

The serious Spiritual path is not for weak ones, it's for the Courageous ones. And not just Spiritual path, but even becoming a doctor or a soldier requires a lot of courage. It requires a person who can handle their Dark Past, the Dark side of their passion or profession. It's not easy to kill or bomb a bunch a people as a Soldier and still be able to sleep peacefully at night. As a doctor, it's not easy to deal with not being able to save a patient who was the only bread earner of the family. So many army people, young soldiers suffer from post-war-operations depression and psychosomatic issues. So, courage is needed for all that we have ever done and we ever will do.

Spiritual Journey is not about all Peace, Bliss, and Glory, it's about EMBODYING and ACCEPTING ourself UNCONDITIONALLY. At times it feels like walking straight through hell as one has to face oneself. However dark the past may seem, one has to face it, look at it deeply and long enough so one can find the lessons hidden deep beneath that darkness and pain. Life is one and it is continuous and eternal and while your short stint on the earth you might have done bad things, might have made many mistakes, but when you become aware of them, conscious about them, then it's a time to Learn the Lesson, so you do not repeat the same mistakes.

Before one can be The Divinity, one needs to Embody their Humanity. That's how one becomes WHOLE!

Time to time many people contact me as they need help and want me to hold their hand, guide them in walking their Spiritual Journey and this "dark side of their own" is the first thing that I often explain them about. And if a person is not yet ready to face it, not that one ever will be ready to face such a thing, but still there is a degree of courage and strength that is needed, and if it is not there I do explain them up front and that way it is clear for one to see if they are ready to walk their own inner hell or not. The choice is always yours.

Those who are not ready yet they should not bother about Meditation and Spiritual practices, just go to movies, have popcorn and be happy!

For those who are ready to deal with themselves please visit Being Shiva Foundation and email me at BeingShivaFoundation@yahoo.com

The Unconscious! How it works?

What is the Unconscious in you? How it works?

In the Western World, it was a renowned psychologist Sigmund Freud who discovered the "Unconscious". And in the Eastern world existence of Unconscious is known and accepted since time immemorial. Spiritual practices, Meditation techniques talk about this Unconscious in detail and helps us make it Conscious so it no longer controls our actions and choices in life. 

Many people assume that what goes on inside of them is pretty much straightforward, while it is far from the truth. The Unconscious is part of every human and heavily influences the actions and choices that one makes in life. Those compelling urges to do something or not, to do this or that often makes one wonder where they come from and how like a puppet one just follow those urges. Persistent thoughts, feelings of despair, disdain, fear, indescribable pain etc often comes from within for no apparent reason and mind tries hard to justify and look for reasons. After much struggle one just gives up looking for reasons and accepts that this is who he/she is. 

There are times when you are able to notice your Unconscious as to "how" it is making you feel. Suddenly when you start to feel sad or fearful or angry for no reason then you do know at some level that it is coming from within and it's not something that has a connection outside of you, to someone or something else. It's not only for the negative feelings or thoughts, at times one may start feeling like a child seeking attention or pampering or love from others around and after few hours or the very next day it is gone and one is back to their adult-self. There are times when for hours/days you may get thoughts about something from the past and only when you come out it, you realize that those thoughts and emotions have been driving you and they took so much of your time and energy. You may decide to not get into it again, but after few days it repeats and you have been swayed again, and have absolutely no control over yourself. 

Most of you have pretty much simple and standard way of reacting and handling situations in life. It may seem as if you are designed that way. But on the deeper level, many of you are aware that some of your patterns of reactions are not very helpful in letting you live life satisfactorily. And this deeper knowing pushes you to decide that next time you will not behave or react out of your set pattern. I have often heard people saying that "oh I am such an emotional fool", "I get easily manipulated", "I am temperamental", "I get talkative when nervous" and so on, so this means that people are aware of their unconscious patterns and behaviors, but it's just that it seems they have no control over it and it keeps on repeating in life. People find it very difficult to change their mind and behave or react differently when it happens the next time.

All this is the Unconscious part of you!

Formation of Unconscious 

Life is one and it's eternal so some part of our Unconscious belongs to our past lives, but most of it belongs to our present life. 

A major part of the unconscious is formed during your childhood when you were not so equipped to deal with the harshness of life and events. As a young child, you often see, feel, experience life that is too much to take in and you have no way to express it, talk to anyone about it. You may not have anyone around you to discuss what is going on inside you and you yourself do not know how to deal with it. This leads to a lot of suppression of feelings which is going to drive you, drive your actions, decisions, and behavior for the rest of your life. 

Are you a vegetarian consciously, or is it that you were brought up in a family where no one ate non-veg hence you were not taught to eat it from childhood. If later is the case then being vegetarian doesn't matter, as it is not your Conscious choice. Yes if you were a nonvegetarian since childhood but you consciously became vegetarian then that matters, there is a deep lesson of compassion, non-violence towards yourself which you have learned and you made a conscious choice to be otherwise. So this is what being Conscious and Unconscious is about. 

As an adult, many times you reject the feelings of pain, shame, guilt, and hurt and busy yourself with activities and mundane life in order to not fully feel them, accept them and let them pass through you, hence these feelings are suppressed and buried deep down and become your Unconscious. They don't go away, they just are hidden. But they do control your decisions, actions, and choices in life. For example you may have been hurt really bad in love and you got over it superficially and started living life, but never again you will be able to love anyone else full heartedly, some part of yourself you will always hold back and not surrender in order to save yourself from the possibility of getting hurt again. You may think that this is the wise thing to do and now you are being clever about it, but in reality, the exact same thing will repeat again and you are bound to get hurt. 

It's not that love always hurts or anything like that. The point that I am trying to make here is that suppressed feelings, emotions create your Unconscious and Drive You!

So how to avoid that? or How to make Unconscious Conscious?

Well, most important question to ask here is - What is it trying to teach me? 

Any particular event or situation in life is trying to teach you a lesson. It could be a lesson of Self-worth or Self-love or something else. When you ask many times to yourself and if you are patient enough you are able to "know" the answer. Once you know what lesson you are supposed to learn, you will have to put it to practice, you will have to implement it in life in all the situations that you going through presently, so no "special painful" event happens again to teach you the very same lesson. Until you learn your life lesson, the similar kind of event keeps on repeating and you are driven by your Unconscious. When you Consciously start throwing light upon your Unconscious by learning your life lessons you will be much relieved, you will feel very light in your Spirit and you will become peaceful inside as you start loving your inner child unconditionally. 

Enlightened ones are fully Conscious in every moment and even their anger is out of compassion for the other. They are peaceful as deep ocean and can cause the emotional waves to crash on the shore beautifully. Their anger is not an anger truly since they are in full control, they use emotions as a tool to get done whatever is needed and their show of emotions is more like a child's play where they are driving the play purposefully, intentionally. Many Enlightened Zen Masters were famous for carrying a stick with them and spanking their disciples and many others still have to put up a show of emotions in order to make others understand the deeper truth of life.

The Defensive Ego!

One of the functions of our Ego is to defend ourselves and protect us. Ego defends and protects not only physically instead most of the time emotionally. In this modern world, we are living a much-protected life physically than our hunter-gatherer ancestors. So mostly this defense is happening towards Emotional Dangers and Emotional Attacks.

Most of you have one or few people around you who "judge" you, "label" you, "criticize" you or "blame" you. And oftentimes there is fighting, quarreling, heated arguments about everything and anything. There are people around you who will constantly breach your personal boundary and will not leave you alone. No matter what you do some people will never be happy with your efforts and will find something that you did wrong today or ever and may give you a complete list of all your sins since you are born. Usually, such people are either spouse, parent or close family member. Because if it was anyone else you would have walked away on the first attack and would have turned your back easily. But in close-knit family situations, it becomes very difficult and hence you develop this "Defensive Ego". No one is born with it, remember that.

Sometimes you yourself go on pretending as something else, someone else who you are not and in order to hide your weakness or your reality you stay On Guard, Defensive with people around you. You create a fake world, a world of lies around you and then you go on defending that world, that fake personality, those Lies that you constantly keep on telling others. Others around you may not have proofs to break the web of your lies, but they can sense it, they know it in many ways. All your efforts give birth to suspicion and are the breeding ground for Emotional Attacks.

Such situations make you feel "unsafe" with Yourself. You do not want to be alone, you want to keep busy, you get anxiety attacks, your personality becomes neurotic, highly reactional, you find ways to avoid Yourself! Here you are not running from others, from the world, but you are running from yourself. Even when you are busy in any activity you keep on chatting with yourself and constantly "defending" yourself even during your mental chatter. Whom are you defending yourself from?

YOU! Yes!

This defensiveness makes you concerned with the outside world and how you appear to others. It makes it harder to notice what goes on inside you, with your inner feelings. When you are thinking, you do not feel much of what goes on with your subtle feelings. You only notice feelings that are at the surface. Retreating into your thoughts thus becomes a way of avoiding unpleasant feelings. When this goes on for too long you stop feeling the feelings. Many people call themselves fully logical and rational and deny that feelings are a real part of them.

The result of all these defensive tactics and games is that you lose touch with yourself. You really don't know yourself. Consequently, you are unaware why you are doing what you are doing. This Defensive Ego makes it impossible to deal with our deeper feelings, and the result is that these feelings stay hidden and do not dissolve. They disappear into your "Unconscious", but do not cease to influence you.

Whenever you are fighting or quarreling and are being argumentative then "truth" goes out of the window, nobody is interested in understanding or even listening to the "truth". When Defensive Ego is playing against anyone then it is no longer about the "truth" it is ONLY about NOT FEELING HURT.

• Yes if someone is Blaming you, you don't want to feel Guilty!
• You are already convinced that the other person is wrong or lying or not understanding!
• This gives you a chance to Blame too!

All this you do because you do not want to "feel hurt". You do not want to feel Guilt, Shame. You do not want to be wrongly accused of anything so you go on protecting, defending your Self-Image.

You may be using one feeling to avoid another. When you get angry, but you don't want to act angrily towards other people then it gets really hard. Thoughts full of anger just keeps coming up. You are angry of course because you got emotionally hurt. The reason you cannot stop being angry is that because then you would have to feel the underlying unpleasant feelings that caused the anger in the first place and you do not want to do that. 

Dealing with emotions like Guilt and Shame is difficult. Dealing with Emotional Hurt is difficult. Not impossible though. No one taught us how to deal with difficult emotional scenarios. No one taught us how to be true to ourselves so we do not have to protect any fake, false self-image. 

The Cat in a Bird Cage - Defensive Intellectual Justification!

What is that one thing that stops us from freeing ourselves; FEAR. Fear of what? FEAR OF LOSS. Fear of Loss of what? A possibility of loss of people around us, loss of loved ones, loss of health, loss of wealth, loss of self-image, image as a father, mother, husband, wife, or whatever. You fear if you admit the mistake you will feel guilt, which you will anyways because you know deep down if you did anything wrong. You fear if you speak the truth, the other person will walk away from you which he/she may already be doing, it's just that You do not want to accept that Truth Yourself. You fear losing relationships that you have and you cannot survive without them, so you are ready to lose the relationship with yourself, which anyways will cost you everything someday! You want short term benefits, small gratifications. You feel you put the fire down today, will see what happens tomorrow, why speak the Truth and face the volcano. Well, there wasn't any volcano to start with, you created it by this fearful approach. 

Your Fear keeps you chained to your Guilt, Shame, Emotional Hurt. You would rather be hurt than walk-away. You would rather be in Guilt & Shame than Forgiving Yourself. You would rather fight endlessly and inflict an emotional wound on yourself and others to protect your self-image by speaking tons of lies to yourself and others than Speaking Truth. It's like how a Pigeon closes his eyes and pretends that Cat is not there in front of him and will not eat him and he is safe! Is he really? This is how defensive ego forces you to live in Denial of Truth, Denial of Love, Denial of Life.

What is the opposite of Emotional Hurt? Self Love!

When you love yourself unconditionally and accept yourself the way you are, you stop pretending to be something else to yourself and to the world then you start to "Heal" and the emotional hurt goes away. When you "Forgive" yourself because you love yourself unconditionally, then you no longer feel guilt and shame. You forgive yourself understanding that "you were only human" to commit a mistake, you did not know any better, life did not give you any user manual to be wise before everything happens. Life is teaching lessons constantly that too through difficult ways, painful ways, emotional ways, so forgive your inner child and love yourself unconditionally. 

When you are able to Forgive & Accept Yourself Unconditionally this "Defensive Ego" DIES! Remember I said above that "you were not born with it" then how did it got developed in you? Because somewhere in the journey of life, you stopped loving, accepting and forgiving yourself instead created a cage of Defensive Intellectual Justifications. See the picture above, the cat in a bird cage? Yes! That's what you have done to yourself. You have created intellectual justifications for all your situations, like why you the cat needs to be inside the bird cage? Or why you the colorful parrots need to hang around a bird cage which has a cat inside? :-)

It's never too late to get rid of this unwanted weight of defensive ego, one less baggage to carry!
Forgive yourself, Accept yourself and Be Courageous.

Being Shiva's Echoflections program is designed to help you get rid of Defensive Ego and take control of your Emotional Well-being.

Seeker's Ego!

Oh Really? Do I have Spiritual Ego now? Ego's Spiritual Transformation! 

Most of the people who are walking the Spiritual Path, the seekers, have an AGENDA in mind. That I want to be a Guru, I want to be a Teacher, I want to be a Magical/Mystical Person, I want to be a Future teller, I want to run Ashram or Spiritual Organization, I want to lead Religious Community, I want to write books, I want to be Divine, I want to be Free from Pain and Suffering, I want to get rid of my Fears, Anxiety, Depression etc. But in other words, aren't these people TRYING TO SEE THEIR REFLECTION in this WORLD as some BEING?. Normal worldly people who are NOT walking the Spiritual Path, and are just corporate, business people or mother, or astrologers, scientists or husbands or father or something else. What are they trying to do? They are trying to be JUST that, they LIKE/LOVE/WANT/DESIRE to see their REFLECTION in this world by BEING all that right? But then what is the difference between those worldly people and spiritual journey takers? Worldly people's EGO (False sense of Self) is CLINGING to their Worldly Identities, Spiritual People's EGO is CLINGING to their Spiritual Identities. Isn't it? Both have EGO's CLINGING to their Reflection, to some form of Being-ness. Both of have Egos dressed/wrapped in different clothes, but both are having it. EGO is that Fake/False/Character/Costume that we keep on wearing, building and decorating. In order to get rid of this Ego, you have to kill the "Seeker personality", "Seeker Identity" within. "The Seeker is The Sought".
