World’s most spiritual place has the strongest energy field!

World’s most spiritual place has the strongest energy field!

Hinduism believes there are several chakras in the body and one needs to open these through meditation and other spiritual pursuits. Everyone has certain energies within him/her and needs to unlock them. Similarly there are several places on the earth which have ‘energies’ trapped within them. These places are the most apt for spiritual pursuits because of the high level of energy contained within their boundaries.

Spirituality is linked with energy fields as well and therefore, at times we feel the presence of ‘divine energy’ or ‘cosmic intelligence’ in some places.

For seekers of spirituality such places could be the one which would solve several questions and doubts that arises in their minds. More often than not such high energy fields are ones that provide us with spiritual solace as well. Which then is the most spiritual place on earth, one that has the strongest energy field? If your answer was Tibet, then you need to rethink.

Earth is a vibrant living entity that constantly engages with its inhabitants, the solar system and the universe. This feature makes it the only living planet in our solar system.

Ancient civilizations revered Earth as a mother and recognized that there are ‘energy vortexes’ or ‘earth chakras’.

It has long been known that there are several energy fields on the earth. These are places where people are mostly likely to witness strange happenings and dreams. Not just the earth but humans are also believed to have an energy field of their own known as aura.

The distinction of being the most spiritual destination on the planet goes to Rila in Bulgaria.

The mountain ranges in general and area around Rila Lake in particular are believed to have the strongest energy fields. No wonder spiritual masters have been taken in by this destination and choose to transmit their wisdom here. Beinsa Duno, known to be the greatest spiritual master in the world, chose Rila to transfer knowledge to his followers. Location is as important as the lesson in spirituality because where energy is high it becomes easier for people to absorb the spiritual lessons being transmitted.

Besides the energy field, this place is also known for its scenic beauty. The area is home to snow capped peaks, lush meadows, serene blue lake, colourful flowers and trees that seem to touch the sky among other things.

Happiness is when you want nothing

If you are friendly then you exuberate friendliness. You become friendly with anyone who comes in front of you. Then your friendships will have no expiry date or any manufacturing date.

===============

Happiness is when you want nothing, and you want to give. Where the wanting and desires end, and the sharing begin, happiness is exactly there. Memory is not happiness. When you are happy, you forget everything. It is when happiness is gone that you dwell in its memory. In the world, people are either dreaming of happiness or remembering happiness. That is either being in the past or the future. But happiness is that which is in the present. And it is your very nature.

===============

We have to evolve from the joy that we get from getting to the joy that we get from giving and sharing.

===============

You had me with your words. you lost me with your actions

===============

Kindness is more than deeds, it is an attitude, an expression, a look, a touch. It is anything that lifts another person.

===============

A good laugh is sunshine in the house.

===============

If you try to get rid of the mind, it becomes a monster. If you just let the mind be, it will vanish!

===============

The most precious gift you can give someone is the gift of your time and attention.

===============

It’s so frustrating knowing how terrible, how fake a person actually is, yet everyone loves them because they put on a good show.

===============

Don’t mention a person’s past mistakes when they are trying to change. That’s like throwing rocks at them while they climb a mountain.

===============

Emotional abuse is just as bad as physical abuse. Worse! You can heal broken bones; you can’t heal a broken mind.

गंगा दशहरा के दिन इन चीजों का करें दान, मिलता है सबसे बड़ा पुण्य

गंगा दशहरा के दिन इन चीजों का करें दान, मिलता है सबसे बड़ा पुण्य

गंगा दशहरा

गंगा दशहरा को ‘गंगा स्नान का दिन’ माना जाता है। कहते हैं इस दिन गंगा स्नान करने से बड़े से बड़े पाप भी धुल जाते हैं। गंगा दशहरा पर दान करना विशेष फलदायी होता है। क्या करें इस दिन इसकी जानकारी आगे बता रहे हैं। लेकिन गंगा दशहरा मनाने का कारण बहुत कम ही लोग जानते हैं।

गंगा दशहरा का महत्व

दरअसल यह वही दिन है जब स्वर्ग से गंगा का धरती पर अवतरण हुआ था। यह गंगा शिव जी की जटाओं के माध्यम से ही धरती पर आई थीं। इसलिए इस दिन भगवान शिव की पूजा का भी विशेष महत्व है। शास्त्रों के अनुसार इस दिन शिवलिंग पर जलाभिषेक करने से भगवान शिव प्रसन्न होते हैं और भक्तों की मनोकामनाएं पूर्ण करते हैं।

जलाभिषेक भी होता है

जो भी जातक इस दिन पूर्ण विधि अनुसार पूजा करे, भगवान शिव जी का मंत्र सहित जलाभिषेक करे, उसकी भगवान शिव हर इच्छा पूरी करते हैं। उसे जल्द ही अपने फल की प्राप्ति होती है।

करें गंगा स्नान

जैसा कि हमने पहले ही बताया कि गंगा दशहरा पर गंगा स्नान का बेहद महत्व है। तो यदि आपको इस बार हरिद्वार जैसे पवित्र धाम पर जाकर, गंगा जी की डुबकी लगाने का मौका मिले तो जरूर जाएं।

किसी नदी में कर सकते हैं स्नान

लेकिन यदि आप ना जा सकें, तो आप अपने समीप किसी भी नदी में स्नान कर सकते हैं। लेकिन यह स्नान रोजाना की तरह सामान्य नहीं होना चाहिए। यह स्नान शास्त्रीय नियमों को ध्यान में रखते हुए किया जाना चाहिए।

दान करें

गंगा स्नान के अलावा इस दिन दान कर्म भी जरूर करें। गंगा दशहरा का यह पावन दिन दान से मिलने वाले पुण्य से जुड़ा हुआ है। कहा जाता है कि इस दिन दान करने से सबसे बड़े पुण्य की प्राप्ति होती है। इस दिन कमाया हुआ पुण्य आने वाले सौ पुश्तों तक अपना असर दिखाता है।

व्रत कर सकते हैं

गंगा दशहरा के दिन आमतौर से सत्तू, मटका और हाथ का पंखा दान करने का महत्व है। लेकिन यदि आप पूर्ण विधि–विधान से पुण्य प्राप्त करना चाहते हैं तो ‘श्रीविष्णु’ के नाम का व्रत करें।

भगवान विष्णु के नाम का व्रत

गंगा दशहरा के दिन भक्त भगवान विष्णु के नाम का व्रत करते हैं। इस दिन पूरा दिन अन्न ग्रहण नहीं किया जाता। कुछ लोग फलाहार लेते हैं, लेकिन कुछ लोग जल का भी त्याग कर देते हैं। किंतु यदि आप इतना कठोर व्रत ना भी कर सकें, तो फलाहार के साथ ही व्रत कर सकते हैं।

ये चीजें करें दान

व्रत में सभी नियमों का पालन करने के साथ व्रती को ग्यारस एकादशी की कथा भी सुननी चाहिए। इसके बाद ही जल का घट दान करके फिर जल पीकर अपना व्रत पूर्ण करना चाहिए।

हो जाएंगे पाप मुक्त

अंत में व्रती को केला, नारियल, अनार, सुपारी, खरबूजा, आम, जल भरी सुराई, हाथ का पंखा आदि चीजें दान कर देनी चाहिए। इस दिन किया हुआ दान व्रती द्वारा किए हुए पिछले 10 पापों का नाश कर, उसे पापमुक्त करता है।

5 reasons why a Spiritual Retreat is mandatory for Body, Mind and Soul detox

5 reasons why a Spiritual Retreat is mandatory for Body, Mind and Soul detox

What is a Spiritual Retreat?

A Spiritual Retreat is when you need a break from all the chaos and all that is happening around you. When your body is no longer attuned to you and your system has gone for a toss, all you need to do is re-attune to your ‘body, mind and soul’.

A spiritual retreat is not only a break from your day to day life but a means to an end where you find yourself back in pieces becoming one whole.

Here’s in a list how a Spiritual Retreat will help you

#1 Connect with Self

It has become very important in today’s world to be connected with self. If one is unable to relate to their own self, it becomes rather hard to survive in the harsh environment that we go through and witness in our day to day lives. Amid the selfish motives, friends become strangers, whacking your brains in a no-soul-workplace and so much that we collect on our plate daily; we must and should break free of the clutches. Whilst you give yourself the treat of a ‘Spiritual Retreat’, know it in your heart you have found a way to your haven – your inner self.

#2 Spiritual Healing

Doctors, medicines, being strapped to machines, lying half-dead living on a Ventilator… Did you imagine your life to end this way whilst you were a kid playing away your worries amid the mud, dust and stones? I am sure most of you reading this article have lived your childhood surrounded by mud and playing street-cricket under the scorching heat of the Sun and not digital hullabaloo that the world has become a slave to.

This said you would want to leave this human suit as free and not worried. It can only happen when you begin to channel yourself the other way ‘round and truly believe in the magic that your body is in its waking reality. Our body is designed to selfheal, only if we know the trick and since we, the children of Gaia and the Multiverse have forgotten this aspect, let a retreat let you connect once again with your body to heal it from the stress and so much that you go through.

#3 Break Free of Toxicity

Most of us are Empaths and we tend to collect not only spiritual debris but also, all that people around us carry in their energies and thought patterns. This is a process that nobody can break free from, unless absolutely conscious of what we are picking up from different people. It must release our body, mind and soul of all the toxins. Toxic thoughts, toxic people, toxic lifestyle and relationships and toxic people too. A spiritual retreat can be your one true partner that will guide you to become more aware of what to take and what to leave. Also, it will help you release and vacuum all that you have collected from your surroundings.

#4 Seeing the Beyond

 A spiritual retreat helps you to meet with people from all walks of life and eminent masters, and speakers. It gives you a chance to broaden your horizon and break the limited pattern of your thoughts. In Buddha’s terms, the company you keep majorly decides for you, your actions and thought patterns too. Give yourself a chance to be surrounded by spiritually evolved, evolving being and those seeking the truth, you and them alike.

#5 Understanding your Soul Path

It might sound quite far-fetched, cliched even, however, you never know what can open you up to all that your Soul was here to learn and achieve. In the rat-race, we have forgotten our true purpose and it makes sense to give yourself a chance to be a part of an exciting Spiritual Retreat and pave a way to open up to the Universe, the Multiverse, maybe.

Three Types of Intellect

Three Types of Intellect
This whole creation is made up of one energy. Everything is made up of just one thing.

Whenever anything bothers you, if you come back to this one principle – there is only one energy which everything is made up of, so there are a lot of possibilities; that brings great relief. Are you getting what I’m saying?

There are three types of intellect.

One is an intellect which is dormant or doesn’t function at all; sleepy, in slumber and only into negativity. This is Tamasic Intellect.

Then there is Rajasic Intellect. Most people have a rajasic intellect. Rajasic intellect means seeing everything as different – This person is different, that person is different, this person behaves that way, that lady behaves this way; dwelling on these differences. Thinking there are so many people, so many personalities, and seeing that as reality. Doing this sometimes you go very high and sometimes you go down. This is rajasic intellect.

Then there is Sattvic Intellect, which is the goal of evolution.

Sattvic intellect sees there is only one thing that is underlying all other differences. That is the reality.

There is one underlying truth. That one thing has come up in so many forms.

Let me give you an example. Have you seen a puppet show?

A rajasic intellect is seeing all the puppets as different characters. A sattvic intellect says there is only one person who is making all these dolls dance. Actually it is a Mono Act.

One person who is behind the curtain, is making with his ten fingers all these different stories happen on the screen and is making them dance.

Have you seen those puppet shows? They tie one thread to each of the ten fingers and they make all the puppets run around.

So a sattvic intellect is seeing that there is only one thing, one truth, one reality, one consciousness that is underneath the whole creation. When this truth is well lodged in the mind, though you see the differences, dwell in differences, you will be unshaken.

A house that has a very good foundation does not collapse in an earthquake. It has a shock absorber. A real shock absorber is deep inside knowing that all this is made up of one consciousness.
All of matter is one consciousness. I am that one consciousness and everything is that one consciousness. One who knows this is free. It is called freedom. ‘I’m so free. Nothing bothers me.

Creativity

Creativity
Creativity brings a new beginning for “time”. When you are creative, you break the monotony of time. Everything becomes fresh and alive. Creativity brings along with it a new round of enthusiasm. Both creative and procreative impulses in nature are associated with enthusiasm. When you are enthusiastic you are closer to the creative principle of existence.
Deep silence is the mother of creativity. No creativity can come out of one who is too busy, worried, over-ambitious or lethargic. Balanced activity, rest and yoga can kindle skills and creativity in you.
=============
Once you choose hope, anything’s possible.
=============
Remember that today is a new day, and you have the power to make it what you want.
=============
Q: When I read the books and listen to knowledge, I really want to implement it. But when the time comes to implement the knowledge, I am unable to do it. What should I do?

Guruji:

Knowledge gets implemented automatically; it is spontaneous. It is there at the back of the mind. What is it that stops you from implementing knowledge is small temptations. Small temptations go with three things: Love, greed and fear.

Suppose you are drinking alcohol or doing something that is not right, then the fear of disease, or fear of losing your reputation, or fear of losing a loved one can stop you. Fear as well as procrastination can stop you.

The second thing that can stop you is greed. If someone tells you, “If you drink alcohol, you will lose 10 million”. Or if you are a smoker and someone tells you, “If you don’t smoke for 30 days, you will get a lottery for 1 crore rupees”, I tell you, you will not touch a cigarette. You will say, instead of 30 days, let me make it 33 days just to be on safe side.

The third this is love. If you promise a loved one, you will keep it up.

Mahakaal

Q:  Gurudev, what is Mahakaal?

 Guruji :

Kaal means ‘time’ and mahakaal means ‘grand time’. Grand time is that which is beyond all human explanation or comprehension. It is that which creates a want in you and also makes you lose your ground. And when you are losing ground, you will definitely feel shaky, and fear also comes up. Fearsome, grandeur, awesome, existence, is what is called Mahakaal.

===================

 Why are there misunderstandings? It is because there is no inner connectivity. You say something and others understand it differently.

===================

Celebrating the silence

One who has given everything has also given freedom: Honor the freedom first and make good use of all things given to you.

Your sankalpas (intentions) and desires separate you from God.

Offer all the desires and your sankalpas to the Divine… then you are divine… you are God… you are free… lacking nothing.

Effort is the key in the relative, Effortlessness is the key to the Absolute.

Your mind does not belong to you. Don’t blame it.

Let the BIG SELF embrace it.

==================

You don’t have to accept the invitation to get angry. Instead, practice forgiveness, empathy and encouragement.

==================

Embrace compassion, and remember to treat others the way you want to be treated.

==================

Regardless of the events or circumstances that are happening, remain steady and established in the Self. Then you can be truly happy and blissful.

==================

Always love your mother because you will never get another.

==================

To err is human, to forgive, divine.

==================

Strive to be kind instead of right.

Can we do something about depression?

Q:  Can we do something about depression?

Guruji:

Sure, we can do something about it. Do you know, depression is the biggest challenge for The World Health Organization (WHO) and possibly the world, in the next 5 years.

Nearly 40% of the school teachers in Europe are depressed, and if teachers are depressed what are they passing on to the kids? It is scary, right; they can only pass on what they have! When we were children, our teachers were so enthusiastic; they pumped enthusiasm in to the kids. They gave us ideas, ideals, more values, and they showed us how to excel in our field. Today when you see teachers who are supposed to be the guiding light of society being depressed, it is very depressing. We cannot feed half the population with prosaic. After a while even that stops working. Here is where you have to teach them life skills, the skill to handle their mind and their negative emotions. And the secret is right under their nose! Using their own breath, they can calm the mind and change how they feel.

You do not have to be a victim of your feelings; you can be the master of your feelings. It is just a matter of education. Yoga is one way; of course, many think yoga is just doing a few exercises, standing on the shoulders or standing on the head, it is not so! Yoga is the rhythm of the breath, and the sensation in the body, and how you feel about yourself. All this comes under the purview of yoga, meditation, life skills and living well programs, and this can help people.

A few centuries ago, not everyone used toothpaste. Dental hygiene was not a common thing. Today, in every corner of the world, people brush their teeth first thing in the morning and the last thing in the night. Similarly, I would say mental hygiene is essential. Learning how to be in the present, keeping your mind fresh and free of all the impressions of the past, anger, jealousy, greed, and seeing life from a broader perspective.

Turn back and see, all the events – pleasant and unpleasant are all gone; there are only traces of memories left in our brain, that’s all. If you try to have an awakened mind or the wakefulness in the mind, it will make a lot of difference.

Love is your very existence

Suppose someone shows a lot of love to you, what do you do?

Often you do not know how to respond.

You feel obliged and bound.

Shrink or shy away.

Feel foolish and awkward.

Try to reciprocate even though it is not genuine.

Doubt the love expressed and ones own worthiness.

You are afraid of losing respect because love does not allow distance and respect tends to keep distance.

Your ego hardens and does not allow you to receive and reciprocate.

Anything else. (Fill in the blanks).

The ability to receive genuine love comes with the ability to give love. The more you are centered and, by experience, know that you are love, the more you feel at home with any amount of love being expressed in any manner, for deep inside, you know :

Love is not an emotion !! It is your very Existence !!!
