It all began about 8 years ago when I started to seek the true meaning
of my life. In this quest I studied different types of meditations. I also tried
some of them for a little while. But it didn't take me anywhere. Every time I use to close my eyes
my mind use to flood me with thoughts. I did find a slight improvement in my health but there was
no peace and joy in me. This was the main thing I was seeking.
After many months, I began to feel the need for guidance and started my search for a Guru who could show me
the way. This decision was a tough one as all the Gurus appeared to be very wise, loving,
and compassionate. In this dilema I decided to study the lives of the Gurus and their popular
disciples. I joined them as a poor voluntary worker and was shocked to see that they did
not follow what they preached. I was disappointed and took a break from all this.
Couple of months passed. My parents had been introduced to Sahaj Yoga and they were
practicing it for over a month. I decided to watch what change does it bring in their lives.
A couple of weeks passed and I began to notice a lot of joy and peace in my parents. They had
become like new people who had forgiven everyone. There was also a strong unconditional love and
compassion in them. Having seen so much change in them in just couple of weeks I decided to study
the lives of a few of them. I started to go and meet them. I found them to be very humble, helping and
genuinely good people. During my conversation with them I came to know how they effortlessly
got transformed into such beautiful humans.
By now I was willing to try this type of meditation and I started to go to
Sahaj Yoga mediation meetings. There wasn't much I was asked to do in the beginning
other than cleansing my inner self with the help of elements of nature. I did all
that I was asked to do, like morning mediations and evening cleansing process. My progress
was slow and after 4 weeks I began to wonder will I ever be able to feel the
joy of the Spirit.
Then one morning I had a great experience which brought about a change in my life.
I felt the joy of my Spirit which all the great saints and seers have talked about.
Not only that I was able to feel my subtle body and movement of Motherly Energy -
Kundalini with in me. This event was like entering a new world of Love and Harmony.
I was able to see that we all are part and parcel of the whole. And I also felt the
Universal All Pervading Power of Gods Love flowing in and out of me. I loved it more
than anything in this world.
Like a scientist I started to experiment to test if this thing is for real and it is
not imagining things. Every test convinced me that such an energy pervades everything
and it comforts, soothes and rejuvenates. It is the most efficient and intelligent force
which begins to work when you desire something with a pure heart.
I began to compare Sahaj Yoga with other disciplines of meditation and realized
that there could not be any thing than this. I didn't have to make great efforts
to be in thoughtless meditation. But this would happen automatically with just a
pure desire to be with the Divine. The Kundalini energy in my sacrum bone would response to my
desires to be with the divine and create necessary environment with in me. This energy would
pull me out of imbalances and put me in the Middle i.e. Sushumna Nadi. Then it would
send strands of energy to all the Chakras which are week to rejuvenate them. Hence the
ground is all prepared for the Take-off which is my union with the God Almighty.
In the light of my Spirit I began to see the reflection of God inside of me. Not only
that I also experienced the connected between all the great Saints that came on the
face of earth at different times in different forms. I used the word experience
because their reflection is also inside of us and bless us with all their powers and
divine qualities. I started to feel the Chakras in my subtle system and when I
would put my attention in someone else the I could feel that persons Chakras. I
learnt the easy way to remove imbalances from these Chakras. This improved my health
and healthy Chakras helped me to go deep in meditation.
This is how it all began for me. I didn't have to read any books to reach
this level of spirituality. God Almighty has provided all this knowledge inside
of each one of us and it is revealed as we become purer. The Mind, Heart and Brain get
integrated and the guiding force of the divine helps us to lead a purposeful,
and righteous life. All this happened inside of me just by a pure desire
to be with the Divine. There was no money involved in it as God doesn't understand
money.
There is lots I have learned over the past years and still there is much to be learnt. This ia a new way of life in which the Divine showers Blessings on each one of us and our lives is filled with beautiful fragrance. Now, after many years in Sahaj Yoga I feel as I am swimming in the ocean of joy and have this pure desire that all
my brothers and sisters who are seeking this should also join me....
