Staying Sub-Superconscious

My guru explains how to remain in this state in a simple way.
 
- Observe the objects which are showing up around you & look around. You are now aware in the conscious mind.
- Now be aware of the thoughts and feelings which are in your mind, simply be aware of them, You are now aware in the sub-conscious mind.
- Sit Straight with head balanced & feel the energies within the body, the source of them being the spine. Be aware of this energy & identify yourself with that energy by separating the feeling of energy. You are now aware in the super-conscious mind.
- Now open your eyes & simultaneously be aware of the things that you see in conscious mind, the thoughts in the subconscious mind, and the energy in the spine of the superconscious mind. Be aware that you are aware of the totality of your mind. You are now aware in the Sub-superconscious state of mind.
 
Great Vistas of Creativity are available to those who keep their awareness open in the subsuperconscious mind. Music, Art, Dance and such other Fine Arts come naturally to them. Intuition becomes of second nature. Its very easy to attain this state for short periods of time, more difficult to remain in the state for longer periods of time. There are many individuals who are creatively living in these higher states of consciousness everyday and doing their part to mankind.

Powerful Meditation

Last night there was a power cut at home & hence me and my wife went upstairs on the terrace for a walk. After some walk, she started listening to Music on her MP3 player while I sat cross legged on the terrace floor for a meditation.

- Took some 5 minutes for my mental and physical systems to cool down

- After that awareness was just in the present completely, the sound of the neighbourhood, the feel of the breeze, the honks of distant vehicles in the city, the sound of my own breath, walking sound of my wife, sound of the leaves, and there was no me, just perception. This might have continues for 10 minutes or so though I was not aware of the time.

- Then mind entered contemplation – to observe the observer of all the perceptions that were happening. This was when I observed the breath had come to standstill, i.e. the incoming and outgoing breath was neutralized to a very short in-out breath which almost became standstill. Was in this state for the next 5 minutes.

- The next moment I observe I was feeling my spine, I was feeling myself as in the observer, in the infinite super-conscious state. There was a mild light at the top of my head and also sound. Together there was a heaviness feeling in my head – as if all the activity was only in head and the body awareness was lost. I was just the head and spine – that how I felt. It was a beautiful state. Don’t know how long it lasted but i dont remember anything on the material plane during this state. No more sound of external world disturbed me or even came to my notice.

- Then my guru appeared in my meditation vision & he was cross-legged just like me. Then we spoke a few things which happened very fast. Next thing I remember is my wife calling me for dinner as power was back. I stayed in the same state for 5 mintes feeling completely refreshed, rejuvinated and full of energy.

Thanks to my guru for guiding me into such a wonderful meditation.

Unfinished business

Unattained goals continue to bother me as time flies day after day ... My focus after marriage has been my family completely .... All the prana is invested in family during weekends & work/intellect during weekdays. Yes, this is necessary as I need to learn to live with Siva before I can merge with Him.

And the concern over the non-attaining of career & material goals & hence their delaying is on the increase everyday.

How we breathe is how we live

Off late I'm experiencing a state occasionally where I'm observing that the objects present themselves in their fullness, it just comes, when this happens there are only the objects showing up and no me (ego). A moment later contemplation jumps in & I observe that the objects do not exist for me if I wasn't there. In other words the life energy in me is responsible for the powering of my eyes, Ears, nose, skin etc which makes these objects appear and present themselves. If I were to withdraw this energy from my body, the objects really do not exist. So the whole world is just a projection of my own self. Would I see it If the energy didn't power my senses? No. To summarize light & sound constitutes all form and is a creation of the mind. The mind is nothing but form, creation, preserving, destroying forms & the cycles continue.

Also learning this beautiful lesson from tantra that How we breathe is how we live in life ... Breath has a direct connection to thought patterns. There must be a math equation to prove it, someone will surely prove it in future.

There are some more updates which must come shortly to this blog post.

The Triple Filter Test

My Gurudeva often mentioned that we should always speak what is Kind, Useful & Necessary. Recently got an email which mentions the same in a nice way.


In ancient Greece , Socrates was reputed to hold knowledge in high esteem. One day an acquaintance met the great philosopher and said, "Do you know what I just heard about your friend?" 

"Hold on a minute," Socrates replied. "Before telling me anything, I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test."  

"Triple filter?" 

"That's right," Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about my friend, it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say. That's why I call it the triple filter test." 

"The first filter is TRUTH. Have you made absolutely sure that what you  are about to tell me is true?"

"No," the man said, "actually I just heard about it and..." 

'All right," said Socrates . "So you don't really know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of GOODNESS. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good?" 

"No, on the contrary..."

"So," Socrates continued, "you want to tell me something bad about him, but  you're not certain it's true. You may still pass the test though, because there's one filter left: the filter of USEFULNESS. Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?" 

"No, not really."

"Well," concluded Socrates , "if what you want to tell me is neither true  nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all?" 

USE this triple filter each time you hear loose talk about any of your near & dear friends.

Utilizing the Ajna Chakra

Over the past few days, I have started learning the power of Ajna Chakra (the command centre) also known as the third eye. Was able to visualize a complex problem in meditation and solve the same. The solution came in just a few seconds in meditation, but translating to the the physical solution after I came out from Meditation and started working on the solution – took approximately 4 –5 hours.

The Visualization using the third eye functions at a higher rate that the conscious mind, hence the difference in timing. Complex solutions can come in an intuitive flash in seconds, but the same may take many hours of work when translated to actual work which of-course requires again channelizing the willpower on the specified work (without getting affected if distractions do come and bother).

Need to continue the use of the Ajna chakra more often for contributing to mankind in a better way ever day ! Thanks to my Gurudeva for teaching me its existence & use.
