Achieving Your Health, Wealth & Happiness By 10-Minutes Daily Thoughtless Awareness. Press Pause. People, Places & Things. Dear Friend, Your super-power is your ability to press pause on your thinking. Because that's how you're able to do more and achieve more than you could with a busy mind. This includes being able to tune in better to the vibes of a place, of people and of things (Super Intuition). If nothing else, you enjoy them better. This is particularly true when you travel to somewhere new: So there we were; standing in the middle of an emporium in Istanbul, Turkey, at lunch-time wondering where to go and eat. Just then a local boy sidled up to us offering the 'best price' for carpets. He was persistent and not wanting to be impolite we followed him to see the carpets; surely only a few feet from where we were. But, no. As we followed he lead. And lead, and lead until we were out of the emporium and crossing some back streets. Where was he taking us? Was this a set up? He's vibes were OK, so we continued and finally arrived at a large, spacious carpet shop to be greeted by the ebullient owner. He treated us like visiting relatives; told us to sit down and asked an assistant to bring us tea and nibbles. When he could see that we were beginning to relax, only then did he begin to roll out carpets and rugs, extolling the artistry of the design on each. What could we do? We bought some. But as we were leaving his shop with some rugs that we may or may not have needed, we asked him about the best place for lunch. He directed us to where the local shopkeepers ate in the emporium. This turned out to be a revelation. You couldn't call it a restaurant. It was a kitchen with tables and chairs in shouting distance of the cooks. it was noisy with loud conversation and laughter. We felt like we had intruded on a large boisterous family gathering at their meal time. Then when we were sat down and the food came, it was delicious - the best Turkish cuisine I've ever had! Think less; enjoy more. More below.

Vienna Philharmonic.  Here is some music to transport you after a hard day at work. Scheherazade, is the Persian heroine of Arabian Nights who, through wisdom and cleverness, becomes a queen. Rimsky-Korsakov is the Russian composer  who channels an Orient of the imagination and paints a sound picture. Valery Gergiev is the Russian conductor(pictured) who, with much arm-waving and sweat, brings it all to life. Enjoy... Standing Still When Everything Around You Is Moving - A Mantra. Whenever you feel a loss of control because everything around you seems to be moving, then mentally 'stand still' for a moment. This will help you regain your balance and composure and build your resilience.  The resilence lies in  your root chakra ('mooladhara' - 'root support').  Here is the mantra to strengthen your root... Press Pause- People, Places & Things.  Try and look at this scene outside a pizza shop for a minute without thinking. The definition of yoga, according the Yoga Sutras Of Patanjali, is 'Chittah Vritti Nirodha' . Which essentially means pressing pause on a busy mind. With that, when you look at anything, you don't judge it . And by not judging it , you tune into the reality behind it - as with this street scene. More about the power of mental silence...

These thoughts that are coming to you, have no meaning with you. They do not substantiate you. Yourself you are an ocean. And you have to get into that state of thoughtless awareness [mental silence]."  November 3rd 2002, Los Angeles (USA). "How long do I have to meditate before I start seeing the results?" In Reply: It's not the length of time; it's the becoming quiet in your head. Becoming quiet in your head is not through effort - which is counter-productive - but by effortlessness as a result of the flow of kundalini through your fontanel at the crown of your head. The better the flow of kundalini , the better your connection to the self-organising principle of Nature ('paramachaitanya'). It's like the difference between having a wi-fi connection and not having one. Without a wi-fi connection, you have no internet. With a wi-fi connections you have access to so many more things. In the same way, all the amazing results of Sahaja yoga meditation come from your kundalini's connection to the 'paramachaitanya'.

Achieving Your Health, Wealth & Happiness By 10-Minutes Daily Thoughtless Awareness. Looking Sharp? The Power Of Your Inward Gaze. Dear Friend, Two tips for finding solutions to problems: In a recent survey of London Underground passengers, one of the most annoying things reported, was being blocked from getting off at your stop by the rush of people on the platform trying to get on. Tip 1: Don't let your anxious thoughts crowd you in when you're trying to find a way out of a problem or situation. In physics, there is something known as 'the observer effect' , which is when just observing something can change it. This has led to speculation in quantum physics that consciousness can affect reality. Tip 2:  Calm down, detach and observe (witness). Let the solution reveal itself. The power to observe/witness is developed and sharpened on your Vishuddhi chakra with your daily kundalini meditation (inward gaze) . The crowd of thoughts are dispersed by your ability to pause your busy mind. More below. Also below: pearls and diamonds - a reason to wear or carry certain gemstones; and, start you day right - how to develop your focus and creativity. Best wishes P.

Mother Of Pearl - Wearing A Gemstone Can Heal You.  Beware the Blue Sapphire. It's good for your Vishuddhi chakra. But only if it chooses you. In India, gemologists won't sell anyone this gem until the person has first slept with it under their pillow and not had a bad dream (Curse of Neelam). The best is probably pearl. It's for your Sahasrara chakra and so can be a universal panacea. Here's what gems to wear if you want to look after your heart, or stomach and where diamonds fit in...  Brain Boost - The Benefits Of Having A Morning Routine. What do you do when you roll out of bed in the morning? The quality of your whole day ahead can be significantly enhanced by making sure that your morning routine includes just two things, both of which boost your brain: having a proper sit-down breakfast, preferably rich in protein; and, 5-10 minutes of attention training to grow your brain muscles (National Library of Medicine: Sahaja Yoga & Neuroplasticity). Here's a workout to increase your focus and creativity... Witness State - The Power Of Your Inward Gaze.  Make the sun move. According to Sahaja yoga, the chakra that is responsible for your ability to feel other people on your hands as vibes, also connects you to the whole universe. So it's your Vishuddhi chakra that gives you 'Collective Consciousness'. It also gives you the 'witness state' - everything out there is in here. With that you might make the sun move or just solve an immediate problem.  More... Popular Posts Others Are Reading. Quote of the Week    "That seeing, that witnessing state has a tremendous power. Whatever you see without thinking, your problems get solved."  August 6th 1988, New  (India). "Somebody mentioned the synchronicity they were getting with Sahaja yoga meditation. I too have been experiencing this. Could you give some examples of other people's experience?" In Reply: The two bizarre ones I heard about from a few people when I first started Sahaja yoga meditation relate to car parking spaces and traffic lights. Those who mentioned it said they could always get a parking slot in places where parking was full, because there would always be another car pulling out to leave just as they arrived. And with the traffic lights, all the sets of traffic lights on a long stretch of road would one by one turn green as they approached, so they never had to stop. To me this didn't sound particularly cosmic or impressive and seemed well within the bounds of luck and chance; so nothing special. That's until I got a taste of it myself.  Then when it starts happening with other things, you realise that it's a jacked-up version of 'being-in-the-right-place-at-the-right-time', played on repeat, as if to grab your attention.
