Pay It Forward

​Dear All,

Did you watch the movie, Pay it Forward,  starring Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt and Haley Joel Osment ? No?  Well I didn't either but the message of the movie, which is in the title, sounds like an interesting one : If you point an arrow at three people and they each point an arrow at three other people, then soon everyone in town will have arrows pointing at them :o)

Just to put this in the context of your practice of sahaja yoga: what this means is that, with your daily meditation you're developing a certain ability, which no one else has, to help make the world a better place for all of us. This can be put into practice in three ways:

1. Give self-realisation to somebody else     2. Help a person or situation by giving a bandhan      3. 'Horizontal' meditation on a global problem

Like any ability, it improves or gets stronger with use but you don't have to believe it for it to work. If you want to give it a go when an opportunity arises, here's what to do.

1. Giving Self-realisation ie raising kundalini is very easy. If you have a friend or family member who is having a hard time of it, then have them sit comfortably on a kitchen chair; stand behind them, quickly raise your own kundalini and put on a bandhan to take you into thoughtless awareness, which you can do mentally, and then slowly lift your right palm from the base of their spine to the top of their head ; three times . Then hold your right palm over their head for a few moments until you can feel the cool sensation of the kundalini. You can then finish by putting them into a protective bandhan.

If they are some place else, then you could if you want, send them the 6 minute self realisation clip which they could hold their hands out to and get realisation online. Amazingly , it can work if the person is sufficiently receptive: 6-minute kundalini awakening

2. Is somebody you know in some immediate trouble or difficulty? Then go into thoughtless awareness; symbolically write the person's name down in your left palm and move the right hand around the left palm in a clockwise direction - like in this video clip

3. 'Horizontal' meditation is where you enter the thoughtless awareness state while holding a specific problem in your attention. And having an effect on the problem because your kundalini, like an internet connection on a computer, connects you to all that is happening in the world.

See you on Tuesday for group meditation. And, by the way, you can now access previous emails and share them with others at  Email Archive>>>
