How can I do the TSV session?

Spirituality is all about taking responsibility of your life and using the universal energy principles for your spiritual growth. The whole journey, which takes you to the zenith of spiritual path has been divided in 5 levels. In the first level, you are initiated in TSV essential and given an energized personal mantra, through which the doorways to the realm of spiritual experiences opens immediately. The initiation in to Tattva Shakti Vigyaan gives you insight into the unseen, un-experienced, fascinating but powerful real of elements. Through regular Sadhana your being starts purging the negatives, your conditioned responses start getting re-programmed for better under the influence of balanced Elemental Energies. This ensures you becomes capable of protection against negative energy forces and obtain the grace of elemental forces for creating abundance and positive changes in life.

The initiation camps are regularly organized by Sacred Association in different cities in India.

What are the preparatory things I should do? Please advise..

If someone says you don't have to engage in preparation for taking up a spiritual initiation that would be dishonest. When you decide to enter your inner world, the realm of your spiritual being you should definitely prepare yourself for the journey. When even in normal air-journey you are told to wear a safety-belt and instructed about 'how to handle emergency situations' how can you expect that a spiritual-flight will not want you prepared. You can't carry all the luggage with you - the size and weight of your hand-baggage is predefined. Similarly when you come for Deeksha or initiation, you should know the rules.

Following small preparatory steps before you arrive at Deeskha camp would ensure you are open to spiritual energies -

• Those who are non-vegetarians or eggetarians should switch to vegan diet one week prior to day of initiation. Vegetarians can continue with their normal diet. It is advisable to keep fast a day prior to Deeksha however if that's not possible you should have only fruits, juices and milk products. (Don't worry that during the day of Deeksha you would be starved - in all initiation camps participants are provided with nutritious, tasty food as lunch. Since mostly the programmes start around 9:00/9:30 AM it is assumed that you would have come after a light, sattvik breakfast at home.)


• Do not take alcohol products (beer and wine included) for a week before Deeksha.


• Abstinence from Sexual engagement (masturbation included) for a week would preserve your energies and enhance the potency of your Deeksha. If that sounds too much to handle, keep it for minimum of 3 days prior to initiation.


• Drink one gallon of water (approximately 3.8 Liters) everyday and if you suffer from constipation please increase the intake of raw-food and fibers in your diet. Fruits, juices and green vegetables would help you. Take 5 grams of Psyllium Husk (Sold in the name of Isabgol), dissolved in one glass of water (Around 150-200 ml) empty stomach and before sleep a day prior  to Deeksha. That will ensure your stomach is not loaded with toxins and body is light enough to support the circulation of subtle energy currents.


• Take proper sleep of 7-8 hours as per your body-type and requirement and also exercise well. Ten (10) rounds of 'Surya Namaskar'


• Keeping yourself off from obscene movies, pornography, abusive language, large gatherings and criticism/sarcasm.


• With these preparations when you approach for Initiation, it ensures you will receive the grace of Masters (Gurumandala) and your increased receptivity will help you in absorbing the most transformational energies of Elements during Tattva Urja Prayog.

What changes will I see in me/my situations after Deeksha?

Merely getting initiated does not mean your situations will change. There are no short-cuts to transformation and spiritual growth. Sadhana is must, discipline and faith is indispensable. You will definitely see a turnaround if you follow what is told.

When you get admission in a course of your liking in your dream-college do you ask your principal what changes will I see in my level of skills/knowledge of the subject? No! you don't because you know that getting into school does not mean you will get knowledge without studying. The only assurance of being in a college/school of repute and standard is that your educational career is in safe-hands and all the necessary guidance, opportunities will be available here. the same is true of Deeksha or Initation. This is like your admission in the school of spirituality where you will be provided with guidance, protection and opportunities for your spiritual growth however how much sincere efforts you are ready to put in will decide your growth.

So be ready to put up hard labour after initiation and then you will definitely grow and see changes. The energized personal mantra is your axe for clearing the pathway to the destination. The sharper is your axe, easier is the journey for you are able to cut the shrubs and obstacles to pieces more easily. Your progress is dependent on your discipline. Gurumandala's energies will always be there to encourage you and protect you in your territory but accomplishments are always personal. You can have variety of experiences during Sadhana.

When will I become eligible for TSV Level - II (Sanjivani Vidya)?

Spiritual quest is a serious business. Casual approach, irregularity & indiscipline can not take you anywhere. After initiation into Tattva Shakti Vigyaan, TSV practitioners are advised to energize their personal mantra and complete the prescribed prayog for definite duration. Serious Practitioners who take out time for Sadhana twice a day can achieve desired strength and capacity to receive 2nd level initiation in 6-9 months. Level - II is essentially a residential programme. Remember that before imparting the knowledge of 'Sanjeevani Vidya' your energies are scanned through and based on your preparation only level - II is given.

 

What is Sanjivani Vidya?

Sanjeevani Vidya is an extremely powerful process. Its first level boosts the capacity of your energy carrying channels of your physical body & astral body. The one who practices Sanjivani Vidya becomes rooted in his being & attains 'saakshi bhaava' or 'witnessing consciousness'. Frees himself from all sorts of negative emotional blocks & addictions. Its higher level which is given in Level - III, to chosen ones gets them to the cliff i.e. closer to Kundalini awakening.

May divine facilitate your participation in upcoming Deeksha camps. Keep working on your energies till then..

Shivoham!

[caption id="attachment_69" align="aligncenter" width="225"] || Let your Guru be your Guiding Principle ||[/caption]

Hi AD,
My guru is sadhguru Jaggi vasudev. My Guru said that the Year 2012 is going to be very condusive for spiritual growth.
Not Only sadhguru many others also told. And some of them said that many people will be enlightened whose consciousness is high and may people will perish whose consciousness is low. I want to know ur perspective on this perishing and mass awakening Business. Is it true that many people will get enlightened and what can i do to get my share for sure(:P).
Thank you sir.                    - Mahendhar

 

Beloved Mahendhar,

If your Guru (JV) says - it is so (for you), I don't see any reason to doubt it. If he is saying so, he must be saying so with a motive even if that happening is not sure. Not sure what prompts you to seek approval or reconfirmation from anyone else on His statement.

Without getting in to the debate of whether 2012 will be an year of reward (although half of that is already almost getting over and not much change has been around!) and punishment, let me try answering your second part of question. To get one's share of divine love and light (this year or in years to come) a spiritual seeker,

- Must get aligned to a Guru or Master and
- Should sincerely practice as suggested by Master
- Have complete faith in his Master's words

It is alright to have discussions in real and virtual world on topics which concern/bother you but never to cross-check or obtain second opinion on your Guru's words. If you call someone Guru then treat him like a Guru or else you can always drop your Guru and move on. There is nothing wrong in moving on but before you do so, ensure by virtue of introspection and self-evaluation that you did everything what your Master suggested, gave your 100% to his methods for sufficiently long periods of time. Patience is important. All great sages have praised patience and faith above all. Sai of Shirdi gave so much importance to these two qualities that every temple dedicated to His holiness flashes these two words right at the entrance.

People feel Gurus and Masters want this blind faith for themselves - that is not true. Unless a disciple is able to rest his complete faith in his guru, he remains doubtful and thus slackness creeps in in his attitude. And halfhearted efforts or doubtful attitude is never congenial for spiritual transformation.

If water boils at 100 degree Celsius it requires 100 degree only. Keep the water at 99 degrees forever but it will not never boil. Similarly your attitude should have 100% faith and devotion towards the words of your Guru.. Methods given to you may not be working. The same would have worked for others but it is not working for you.. don't give up. Just state your problems with your Guru - He shall fine-tune the practices if needed. It happens sometime - Guru's become over-enthusiastic about one particular (now a days it is mostly patented one for commercial reasons) technique. They hope (rightly so because if method worked for maximum number of people who came to him he becomes mass-communicator) that their patented method will work in all cases. Gurus may also sometimes get wrong. - but if he is really concerned he will make you reach a stage where he can give following farewell instruction as below -

सत्यम्  वद् धर्मम्  चर् स्वाध्यायान्मा  प्रमदः।
आचार्याया  प्रियम्  धनमाःरुत्य  प्रजातन्तुं  मा  व्यवच्चहेत्सिहि ॥
सत्यान्न  प्रमदितव्यं, भूतये  न  प्रमदितव्यं, स्वाध्याय्  प्रवचनाभ्यां  न  प्रमदितव्यं,
मातृदेवो  भव , पितृदेवो  भव , आचार्यदेवो  भव , अतिथिदेवो  भव  ॥
यानि  अन्वद्यानि कर्माणि  तानि  सेवितव्यानि  नो  इतराणि,
यानि  अस्माकम्  सुचरितानि  तानि  त्वया  उपास्यानि  नो  इतराणि॥
अएष  आदेशः  ॥ अएष  उपदेशः ॥
अएषा  वेदोपनिषत l अतदनुशासनं अवमुपोऽसितव्यं  ॥

I 'sport' Anna Hazare!

[caption id="attachment_135" align="alignleft" width="477" caption="||Revolution.. Kraanti may demand this too.. Ready?||"][/caption]

Guru ji, What is your view on 'Fast unto death' of Anna Hazare against corruption?  Shall we support him?

- Amit

Beloved Amit, Let me declare first that I am against all sort of corruption.. not only the one which concerns money but dead against each single behaviour which originates from corrupt mind..

You should know that whenever we lose our spontenity and plan the expression of our hurt and negative emotions that is nothing but corruption to the core... Stay silent when it is happening and start crying and yelling when its alreadt over.  Such a behaviour originates from a greedy and fearful mind.

People would happily pay bribe to the clerk for getting their House-Tax saved and very next day support the cause "India against corruption" on facebook! They would silently watch a goon teasing a girl on the road and enjoy it too, next moment the same person shall forward an SMS on women-empowerment, Crime free society and so on.... 

But what else do you expect in the world's biggest democracy called India where there is no political willingness to change the century old education-system.. the one which was given by British government.  We are seeing such state of this country today because of one prime reason - It is because of the way we educate our children and you are expecting a positive change in this education system by giving the task of transformation to a cunning and mentally bankrupt lawyer-cum-politician?

I read somewhere.. 

"We got FREE on 15th August' 1947 - Since then we are doing what we wish"

This sentence is correct depiction of our FREEDOM!

The fear and greed - are two brothers which live by each other. If you conduct yourself out of greed you are bound to cross the boundaries of law and the you will either like to stay in fear or you will (if you have power or strength to do so.. which politicians, Government officials, Police and crominals) create fear of yours around.

Anna is fasting.. Fasting is constitutionally allowed form of peaceful-suicide. But what else than killing himself he can do? For that matter what else any other citizen of India can do to deal with these serpents in the political circle? They will bite you the moment you open your mouth... they shall inject their venom in and watch you die with a smile on their faces. 

You knew that you are not safe in your home, in the streets. But now you should have known that they can kill you even in Jail. The safety in police custody is a myth for you but reality for Kasabs, Afzals, Shakeels, Rajas, Kanimozhis and Kalmadis. The greater is the level of your corruption and crime, the higher is your political reach safer you are everywhere.. even on the roads. Who are you to demand safety? I know you are a sane, God fearing person.. aren't you? Take my advice.. God won't come down to interfere in your life.. and protect you, in fact he has never come so far in last few million years. God has no role to play in these worldly affairs and your suicidal decisions so its better to be Police-Fearing, Neta-fearing person instead.

I am telling you Amit, this place is not safe to raise your voice against the way country is being run... Anna has decided to remain without 'anna' (food) unto death. You must notice.. he has already made a choice.. Either Jan-Lokpal Bill or death.. he is 74 now already he can afford to die, can you? You can NOT support Anna..

Have you still not learnt your lessons right? Ramdev wanted country's money to be declared as national asset.. And enthusiasts like you sat beside him, surrounded him in the Ramleela Ground to support this noble cause. I am not sure if you saw those clippings of Rawan-leela in the Ramleela ground in which Policemen were shown brutally jumping on already half-dead (by their tear-gas bombings) bodies of fallen people. This happened because they supported the cause..  if you did not see those scenes.. first watch them on youtube or somewhere then only make up your mind for suicide.  Above all why do you want to be spotted by police and politicians.. while rest of 100+ crores of people in this coutry are silent. You can also just wait and watch!

Had your house been on fire you wouldn't have waited to get the answer from me on the issue. You would surely run and throw some water at the root, call fire-brigade, yell for help.. right? I understand this question "Should we support?" comes from a confused, half-realized buddhist monk who wishes to renounce the world of action and conflict and walk the "Golden Middle path". I respect your intentions and choice thus my advice to you and all those who are still thinking of taking some action in this regard is that..

Forget supporting Anna Hazare but don't worry still there is a lot you can do about it. You all can "Sport" Anna on your facebook, in your SMSes.. in your mail forwards, T-shirts etc. You can switch off lights when asked for (keeping AC and TV on..after all this is not Earthday call!), light some candles at some national monument and wait patiently for blind and deaf government (consisting of all corrupt to the core politicians) to take note of it and smile at your helplessness and choicelessness till next general elections. Yes! one more thing.. Don't forget to shout a few anti-corruption slogans daily while in bathroom.. it will pep up your nationalistic spirit.

Love and Light

Is there a way to stop expecting?

Below is a chat session between Manjulata and AD. Manju is an experienced teacher of English language at a reputed school in Bhopal, M.P., India. She has been associated with AD on a Child education project while she was in Delhi and since then she is closely following AD's activities in the cyber world and elsewhere too..

ML: AD think u r good at that..You can make a person reach the resolution.. one question bothers me.. How can we do away with expectations as it leads u to bitterness.

AD: expecting is human.. why not to expect? :-)

MD:  but You land up nowhere with it.

AD: wherever we are today.. is it 'nowhere'?

MD: I mean in ur relations.

AD: See.. all we expect in relations is love, understanding and care.. but unfortunately these are the things which can only be given and received.. These are like rain, sun and wind.. which come to us because existence loves us.. we do not have any right on these.. Similarly love, understanding and care can not be expected.. it depends whether other person is capable of giving it or not. If he/she is empty, skewed, already void of these you can just let go. These things can only be given..

MD:  hmm there u r..but when u give u expect.

AD: Have you ever thought what exactly you give..?

MD:  whatever u do for others u care for others and that sort of things..

AD: Correct. Lets first disect this 'doing or giving'. In fact 'doing or giving'  is either your action, your caring speech, your body or your tender thoughts.. nothing beyond is possible. If you include money in this list then I would suggest you better open a credit and thrift society with laid down rules and take 5 sureties before you give your money to someone.

MD: :-)

AD: Further you would notice that While you do something.. which gives YOU joy you can be sure that it is doable.. The simple fact is when you are giving or doing a thing which gives you JOY, the feeling of 'i am 'doing it for him/her' is not possible. Right? Your joy is the motive here.. so this can not counted in 'doing or giving'..

ML: hmm..

AD: Lets evaluate mental action.. When you naturally think 'soft and good' about someone those thoughts and care that can also not be taken as 'doing something for someone' because it is something which is giving you happiness. In fact more good you thing of others more happy you feel.. and if you aren't feeling this way you are not doing it right.

MD: But sometimes u need the same when u feel low or little disturbed. Isn't it?

AD: I will come to that later..

Now about your body - When you give your body volunteerily.. 'it is naturally pleasurable process in which you always 'receive pleasure'.. in this case also there is no possiblity to think that you gave something to other.. or did something for someone because it gave equal amount of happiness, joy and pleassure to you too.

We have ruled out two options (Thought and Body) where we could have felt the sense of 'giving'... Still there is no dispute on your experience that there are actions on which you feel like 'i am doing it for others'. Well..  Lets see why and when.

 If we look from a broader perspective.. whatever we tend to do for others.. fall in two categories.

1. we are doing something which is giving me instant gratification and pleasure, happiness.
2. where we are giving, doing sometihing now.. projecting happiness, joy, return in future..

MD: hmm

AD: If we refrain from step 2. the problem is solved..:) Simple.. isn't it?

MD: Not so easy.

AD: I know.. So before you do something.. evaluate it.. Think if it gives YOU joy or not. If it does not.. you can choose to stay unmoved. But if you, out of fear of losing a person... or something of that sort engage in any activity which is painful... you will definitely expect returns.

I know it is not as simple as I told you.. but having two pronged approach in practical life is necessary.. 1. Start moving from selective goodwill to omnipresent good will..
2. Learn to be fearless and wise.
MD: Some times we do things because of fear of losing the person or the relation.Then what?
AD:  Thats a situation where your fearlessness will come handy. Also if you start expanding your consiousness you will naturally help someone rather than out of fear.
MD: I want to correct u,we don't expect something very great,May be aliitle attention or acknoledgement.
AD: :-) Thanks for correction. A small tiny hair in the eye is really not a very big thing.. but gives really too much pain and irritation. Those little expectations hurt us where we are most tender.. 'our emotional expectancy center'.
You are right.. very little are our expectations.. but then when they fall in our eyes.. we cant rest or be at ease.
MD: hmm,so what do we do? It disturbs u for along time. We can't get away with it?

AD: Another way to look at it is.. we are expecting great troubles through our little expectations. Isn't it?
MD: yes I agree

AD: Will it be wise to expect then?

MD: No but it remains there

AD: The art of being at ease is about being wise. Nothing else.

And if that pain or hurt doesn't go and we feel that we are struggling to not think and act that way despite knowing the fact that it hurts to expect.. Shouldn't we accept that we are really stupid.. unable to see merit in a particular way of action.

And mind you the moment you think and declare (if mentally it doesn't help... i suggest do it vocally with a smile on face) that 'it will be idiotic to expect' you would see this pattern is gradually vanishing. Affirmations are needed here to break the pattern and remind yourself.. Teach yourself that you need to be wise and thus not do or wish a thing which can be painful. You have all the rights to keep yourself happy and if you decide to that.. you will be at ease for sure.

It works.. because no one including the most idiot person under the sun wouldn;t want to declare it every day to him/herself that she/he is an idiot.

MD: :) hmmm

MD: but.. For me I know it already I'm a fool and i'm so cosidered by others :)

AD: But I know you are wise.. just unveil yourself.

MD: hahaha

AD: People say discover yourself.. I have a lighter word.. just 'uncover' yourself.

MD: I've discovered and uncovered myself thats why I made that comment about myself

AD: If you really made that comment.. it is time to decide if you want to stay like that or change?
MD: I want to change ofcourse

AD: There are people for whom challenging Affirmations work.. on mental declaration like 'I am stupid if I expect' they feel like fighting out the pattern and winning over it. For some the challenging or negatively loaded affirmations/self-reminders dont work.. they need something like "I am wisel.. why will I expect and feel pained. I know people dont come up to expectations and so it is not good for a wise person like me to think differently."
Just see which one works for you...

MD: ok

AD: And also.. You should try stop working out of  'fear of losing'..

MD: hmmm
AD: These two jointly can uncover you completely and uncover you and expose the wiser woman in you..
MD: sounds good :)

AD: Then practice it.. and let me know how it sounds when it is hit against the wall of your behaviour pattern.. metallic or a thud :-)

MD: sure.. Thank you so much.
