Getting Real. How You Can Conquer Imposter Syndrome.

Dear Friend,

You may not think you've ever felt like a fake but the imposter syndrome may be an essential armoury in the rat race -hence the term: 'fake it, till you make it'.

There's far less hassle, however, in being true to yourself . Your kundalini gets you there.

There are two vivid moments in my varied career when I've known that I was being an imposter.

The first time was when I was working at a financial brokerage firm in the city and was on the phone to a client, glibly running through a pitch for the millionth time, about how the commodities market was ripe for them to reap a huge profit by investing their spare cash.

The sales pitch depended on me having more knowledge than the client but on this occasion the gods frowned. The person I was talking to was a professor of economics, who began to pick holes in my economic reasoning. Huge embarrassment. I did not make the sale and the call quickly ended.

The second bout of imposter syndrome was when I was working in 'big pharma' and attended a conference organised by one of our vendors - a seller of molecular structure visualisation software.

When registering for the conference I must have missed out my title because on picking up my name badge at the venue, the title that had been placed in front of my name was not 'Mr.' It was 'Dr.'.

This did puff me up with unearned pride for about five seconds when I saw the mistake, but then I did have to spend much of the conference avoiding conversations with other attendees who were mostly all genuine PhDs, lest I got asked the innocent question of what my PhD was in.

So finding yourself an imposter in a work setting is easily recognised. But it's the subtle form of being an imposter to ourselves that's not easily recognised. This is part of everybody's mental make-up created by the bind of our ego and conditionings.

A quick shout-out to Daniella for sharing your experiences with me about the synchronicity that's started happening to you even after a few weeks of consistent regular meditation. Yes, a lot of people begin to notice this with Sahaja yoga meditation. Keep going!

Finally, a WeMeditate app is being developed so that you can have sahaj meditations at your finger tips whenever you want. If you'd like a beta version to try and then provide feedback on, simply reply 'Yes' to this newsletter and Anjani will email you the download link.

Power Of The Photo - How To Keep The Vibes Flowing.
The 'magic ingredient' to your sahaja yoga meditation, as you'll already know from your own experience, is the photo and candle. The photo captures some of the tremendous vibes of Shri Mataji and emits it, helping your kundalini to rise. The vibes passing through the flame towards you has a cleansing and curative effect on your chakras. To help maintain the power of the photo and keep the vibes flowing, here is how the Indians look after it...

Heart Over Matter - Getting What You Wish For.
The head is a closed box but your heart is a tunnel. When the kundalini opens the lotus of your heart, there's a reciprocal opening of the sahasrara chakra at the top of the head, because the two are connected. So when a genuine 'heart-felt' wish rises from the heart, it passes through a 'tunnel of love' and opens up into Reality via your sahasrara and things happen. You get what you wish for. Here's a guided meditation to get a bigger tunnel...

Spirit Heart - Getting The Joy Of Being True To Yourself
According to Sahaja yoga, you're only truly yourself when you recognise and identify with your spirit which resides within your heart. But hiding your spirit away from yourself are your ego and conditionings - persistent 'imposter syndrome'. Your kundalini awakening ignites the flame of your spirit and brings it into your conscious attention . This is what 'enlightenment' is. Here's Shri Mataji with a 4 minute exercise to clear your heart and nurture your spirit...

Quote of the Week

"..the Heart, is represented here [indicating centre of top of head] through which the Kundalini passes.

So heart is the most important thing; if you have no heart it won’t work out. If you have a frozen heart, if you have no love, it won’t work out.

So at the heart point ['brahma-randhra'] only it pierces out, and you can see the pulsation [of kundalini at top of head similar to heart beat] there before it pierces out."

August 14th1980, Preston (England).

"I have a disagreement with someone about something fairly important to me, which we have not been able to resolve by discussion. It's really bugging me but I don't want it to ruin our relationship. What's the 'sahaja' way through this?"

In Reply:

You have the whole universe on your side (courtesy of your kundalini awakening) so exercise a bit of detachment and you'll see how time and circumstance will resolve the matter in your favour.

If you're finding it difficult to be detached because of bottled up anger and frustration, perhaps, then get rid of that by 'shoe beating' the issue.

The idea of beating something undesirable with shoes to make it go away, is not a sahaja yoga invention. It has a long tradition in the Arab world.

The sahaja yoga variation of the shoe-beat has been discovered to work in sometimes surprising ways.
