Aad Sach meditation

Chant Gurdev Mata, Gurdev pita .....
Request the primal energy to cleanse your energy and free you from all thoughts
Request the primal energy to make a circle of protection around you for the time of meditation.
Say 'Aad Sach, Jugaad Sach' and think of the Primal energy that has been from the beginning of time and will always Be, the Self-illuminated, All-knowing energy.

Focus within, a few inches above navel and chant 'Aad Sach'
For 10 minutes say Aad Sach (Primal truth)
                            Aad Sach
                            Aad Sach
Feel the energy moving from within, going outwards making a ring around the body.
Feel the energy awakening in the arms and corresponding points in the legs as you chant.

When ready, internalize the chant - so you don't speak but you hear it from within.
Request - O primal one, release all anger within me
               O primal one, release all anger within me, from all times.

               O primal one, release all anger within me
               O primal one, release all anger within me, from all times.

Feel it being released from the layers of your body, going into the atmosphere and into the earth. See this energy being neutralised.

Request - O primal one, fill me with your light.
               O primal one, fill me with your light.

               O primal one, unleash my powers.
               O primal one, unleash my powers.
Aad Sach, Jugaad Sach

Meditate on neutral space

Nityanada explained Energy, love, bliss and intelligence are one and the same thing.
Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZq6wK06tT8

When Consciousness is expressed through
your Head, its Intelligence
Your Heart, its Love
Your Being, its Energy
When it is there without moving, it is Bliss.
If you have intelligence without energy, its curse and dangerous.

I must be searching for bliss and in desperation I cry.

"Sit straight and inhale slowly and deeply
for 10 minutes, consciously drop your identity. You can't neutralise because you are afraid of loosing our identity. So take a break from your identity.
For 5 minutes Witness only the incoming breath flooding energy and bringing life throughout your body, to every cell.
Now forget the incoming breath, for a few minutes only witness the outgoing breath.
Now be aware of the gap, the neutral space, when incoming breath turns into outgoing breath.
Now be aware of both gaps- breath turning from down to up (Incoming to outgoing) and up to down (outgoing to incoming breath).
Witness as breath turns,
be aware of both neutral spaces and completely relaxed,
feel clearly you are flooding with energy, understanding and intelligence, you are in eternal bliss."

I have been practicing this without knowing and couldn't explain to my siblings how to feel nothingness.

Comments on this video are another asset. The latest comment is as follows
"One of my Gurus told me that this is the same technique Buddha use to gain enlightenment.
When I concentrate on inhalation, I feel the energy from my breath collect in my forehead.
As I exhale, I feel the energy cascade down my spine to the root center. When concentrating on exhale, I feel the energy in the root center pulled up as my breath comes in to the heart center. As I exhale, I feel the intelligence express through my crown center. This is truly an amazing technique."

How to have an outstanding life - my notes

As I mentioned in my last blog, "How to have an outstanding life/ Paul Smith" is an excellent motivational book with no religious content but all the religious concepts. See the examples below
P. 77 about sending signals for success reads "Instead of sending a subconcious message outwards, you send a concious message inwards. You build a body anchor anytime you link an inspiring thought with an action in your body language" Body language might be look upwards, pressing feet into the floor to bounce up with the energy. Paul warns to not mix body anchor with superstition as body anchor is like giving yourself an invisible pat on the back whereas in superstition the control is not in your hand. But if you believe in the philosphy that creator/ God is within you and you have the power to change as long as you trust that the almightly is your friend and will stand by your side, as long as you make your best effort to succeed. Meditation starts with a prayer asking the creator to reward your efforts and then in the deep meditation preparing yourself for success by postive affirmation, by saying it aloud, seeing it by visualisation and then doing it.

I like the tip of converting five goals into affirmations at any one time and pump each of them up with emotional words to stimulate right side of your brain. Try to squeeze more than seven ideas and the brain is overloaded. Funny enough, sikh religion also talks about the power of panch-shabad ( five words) "Panch shabad tit ghar subhage, shabad vaje, kala jit ghar dharia". The body (Ghar) that has superpower (kala), is the one in which five words resonate. (Read my blog dated 22nd June, 2010 for Bhai Thakur Singh ji's explanation of Panch Shabad).
Remember not to include the word NOT in the affirmation. Innerself does not recognise NOT. "I am NOT weak" is understood by the inner-self as "I am weak". So be careful of your choice of words for affirmations. Choose "I am strong" instead. I should use the affirmation, "Housework is fun", somehow, I don't believe in it.

Meditation an adventure

I had never known meditation is an adventure as I do now.

I have been reading a book "Opening the third eye" and another one "The chakra handbook". I have also read "Kundalini .." . Although I found kundalini book difficult to understand because of yogic jargon as the book uses the names of the yoga-mudras that it does not explain but refer to another book, it is still useful to understand certain concepts.

I have had several precious experiences in the last few months. I can see the colour purple in the third eye. I can feel my etheric body between my hands.

If you read Guru Granth Sahib or do your nitnam, you will realise that the Guru is not asking you to read the scripture in a parrot fashion. Its actually giving you the same message again and again in different ways. That message is simple. Meditate. I understand that if you call yourself a sikh- do your nitnam but don't do meditation then you are wasting your time. Nitnam is actually telling you to meditate.

My meditation technique is simple.
10 Minutes of vocally reciting the word Vaheguru. You can divide the word and just repeat Vah then just repeat Guru.
Then the important part is to become quiet and concentrate on your breath going in- expand your chest and going out contract. Just observe.
When you normally get up and think you have done enough, just wait another few minutes and just observe. If thoughts came in to disturb your observation of the breath, start vocally repeating vaheguru again for a few minutes before becoming quiet.

Don't expect anything, just observe and you will have different experiences each day. I was very happy a few days ago when my heart chakra opened and I saw a triangle made from the rays from the third eye to the hear chakra. It was one of the most amazing experiences I had. It still doesn't beat the session when the colourless energy rushed in from above entering my seventh chakra (dasam dwar, 10th gate). Guru says again and again "Anhat shabad annant vaje" It has a very deep meaning. I am still waiting to hear the anhat shabad and the numerous musical instruments that you hear while in deep meditation.

Heart energy verses brain energy- hurdles in meditation

Fact: Heart generates electrical energy 40-60 times more powerful than your brain.

Hurdles in meditation - Negativity/Fears

How can I let go the negativitis?
If you are upset with a relative/friend/enemy, forgive them otherwise that feeling will stop you from going ahead with meditational experiences.

How can I overcome fears?
Believe in a higher energy looking after you. Trust in that creator to do justice.

Also be afraid that if you don't forgive others, the justice system within you will stop you from entering the higher realms of reality, for the matter must be resolved and the chain linking you with that person must be broken to let you proceed. So let go of the negativity now as possessive love and hate are both chains, in fact part of the same chain. Its the brain that justifies your love and hate for someone.

Meditation technique

Meditation is less to do with the knowledge of techniques and more to do with the commitment.

Meditate without thoughts in your brain interrupting you. At the same time feel the heart expand with each inhalation, feel the love for the creator. Every time a thought enter the mind, start chanting and concentrate on listening to the sound/word. Feel your breath going in and out.

Expand your body with the inhalation of breath as much as you can and try to contract the body to the extent of a dot point with each exhalation. There will be no room for thought, only feeling the breath. Soon the breath will become shallow. Let the process takeover. Let go, don't control anything.
