On cloudy days

So, see these days as cloudy days. Enjoy the ‘forced leisure’ while it lasts. Put it to good use. Prepare yourself for ‘busy time’ ahead. Strengthen your body and mind. Use every opportunity and time to do as much sadhan as you can. Gather as much energies you can. You’ll go that far as your energies that you’ve accumulated now!

So, as cloudy as our days seem now – believe that SUN shines always! In fact, it shines more brightly after a cloudy day or a rainy day!

So, will our life gather momentum in activity and shift into fast paced life?

Here, fear not, feel not! Dust that depression, disappointments, fears, tension, stress and stain for change is just around the corner!

As they say, the last lap is the most difficult one! So, don’t lose heart just before shift in ‘The Time’!

Get back to regular sadhan.

Get back in shape – body, mind and soul.

Reclaim your strength – body, mind and soul – for the coming time is going to demand that from you.

So, to sum it up, cloudy days are to recoup our strength.

They are to give rest to our soul.

They are so we get connected to our soul.

However, dark cloudy days be, sunny days are bound to come – one way or the other – for sure – Always!

Quarantine - Tips

On fear : Though I have already given tips on dealing with 'fear' during Pandemic, there seems to be more need seeking few other tips too....so here goes.... 

The moment you realize you are experiencing 'fear' - 

1.simply sit and breathe deeply.

2.Draw 3rd symbol of II dg - also called as 'Intention symbol' and cancel the thought that generated 'fear'

(Please Note : Don't say name of the symbol in the name of cross checking........)

3.Send reiki negating that 'negative thought' immediately. Say for example you get a thought 'I am going to die' then immediately send reiki with an intention 'I am leading a healthy happy life till I am 100 years old'  or something like that....

This is just an example. Use your commonsense to form a sentence that negates your negative thought and produces opposite effect of that. DON'T WRITE TO ME ALL YOUR NEGATIVE THOUGHTS AND ASK ME TO WRITE THEIR RIGHT COUNTERPARTS!!!

4.Don't analyse your 'fear'. Don't justify it with facts and figures. Don't identify with it. Just DISOWN IT. Get to do Reiki / chant MM immediately or as soon as you become aware of your thoughts!

5.Parayanam  or reading of scriptures was suggested in previous post. Many of you may do that mechanically. Instead read 3 posts from our blog daily. Just read one post in the morning, one in the afternoon and one at night. You can just read the suggested links too in that way. That will help you to keep you away from fear and suffering related to that......

Further to little things to do during quarantine

Pranayamam : Many have various excuses to not do pranayamam. It is proven fact that it is most powerful way to beat any 'air borne' disease - powerful and effective than the most modern medicines. And yet....

do the various kinds of pranayamam daily at least for 1/2 an hr

a.kapalbharati

b.anulom vilom

c.bhasrika

d.ujjaiyi

e. sheetali

f. deep breathing 

(already taught 100 times in class. Convenient for all to get away with ' yes maam, but forgot - can you repeat or explain? Answer is check with internet....)

(P.S : Every excuse that a person makes reflects the flaw in his character and also where it is! So use your excuse, look into it and know where your problem area is and get healed)

For those who have excuses to not do :

Buy a balloon packet of 100 birthday balloons and make them into 4 parts.

Give each part to one member of the family.

Let each member blow his set of 25 balloons. Time it. collect your balloon and keep it in your own slot. 

DON'T MIX UP BALLOONS WITH ONE ANOTHER.

Do it at least twice a day.

The mantra chanting yagna starts today and ends on 31st May 2021. Write down your goal no. of malas and action plan to work it out.

Appreciate people who are chanting 'as a form of gratitude'. 

People always get back with 'I did chanting and yet my XY desire didn't get fulfilled....' - in short come back with complain.....

nice to see people who are grateful instead of complaining and cribbing in life...

any one who learns to 'SEE' right finds every reason to be grateful in life and for life.........That is all that is to learn....all other things follow suit....

P.S. : I have already told it in class and through various ways that I am not going to communicate through any mode of 'communication' for min. of 3-4 months and yet.........

which part of this statement is difficult to understand? 

Hopefully - i repeat hopefully i MAY (ONLY May not for sure!!) start communicating from say somewhere after August......but again this is tentative only......till then only blog posts will be written by me....

Further to little things to do during quarantine

1. Do re-birth with "fear " too as many times as you can. Fear is the common emotion we experience esp. when being bombarded with all the negative info. we receive through various social media sites......

as far as possible don't read these news....how does it matter as to how many people got infected and died?

Are we checking out daily the death toll of accident cases or drunken driving?

Do we tally diabetic and obesity related deaths daily?

Check once. You'll be surprised how many they are daily? And they don't go away ever - that means they are here for ever - and yet we accept them and their deaths as natural. We don't work on our eating and living styles that cause us these diseases or any such diseases. Then 'fear' doesn't visit us. 

Where is the difference? ACCEPTANCE. Think about it. 

Use every technique taught to you in every class/degree/ session to heal that fear of death. We all carry that in our DNA. Time we healed it. Good let's use COVID to our advantage. Let's use it as a mirror to reflect where our fear is. Let's address it as and when it pops its head. Let's become more accepting of this fact of 'life'. As long as life is, death is. Sooner we see it, accept it more we will have energy, time and sense to celebrate life. We will value life more and be more respectful of it.....

Japam : Let's chant "Mrutunjaya mantra" say 25000 times in coming days. Shall we decide on completing it by 31st May 2021 or do you want it to be some other day? Don't count no. of malas you do daily and then say 'maam i could do only X no. of times..." 

Instead count backwards i.e., if we want to complet 25000 times say in 25 days, then we need do 25000/100= 250 malas. And then 250/25 (days) = 10 malas per day. Then we simply do 10 malas per day min. some days we are able to do more than 10. let's do it and keep adding it. most of us will notice that we are doing it in lesser no. of days than we started it. Greater the no. of malas that we decide to do and lesser the no. of days to do, greater is the sense of achievement in us. what say? 

If for some reason, some one doesn't or can't chant this mantra they can pick up 'Om Namaha Sivaya' but that would be 1,00,000 (one lakh) times that means 1000 malas. Take your pick and make a vow. Don't take it to show off. Take it to complete it. So many of you have already done 250 malas of MM earlier. You could do it easily then. You can do it even now. 

Sadhan : Fix 4 at least 1/2 hr sadhan time 4 times of the day like we did it during last year. Just sit during that time in sadhan. Have a list of sadhan to do at various points of time. Just maintain it reg. and lo! both your sadhan is complete and your state of mind - cheerful and healthy during these tough times. 

Others can share if you find anything worth sharing....

On comment : https://kantipadam.blogspot.com/2021/04/mind-enemy-or-friend.html?showComment=1618857658752 regarding subconscious mind - 1. Your questions is very vague. So let the question be more specific.
2. What do you understand by mind in the first place and what does subconscious mind mean to you?

3. What is the purpose of this question? What is the basis of this question?

(All the above questions are addressed to all of you........every one is welcome to participate so i know where to start and how to go about that .......this topic is addressed completely in Aura cleansing class though........)

on Tips to address covid - AGAIN!!!

Thanks to so many reasons we see more number of people in our circle inspite of getting vaccinated too in many cases, being infected.

What do we do?

Do we seek pity from someone? "

or

"Are you seeking solution for the issue at hand?"

The second wave is spreading fast and many more than before are being effected. Don't panic. Do the following to avoid it with humanly possible steps that can be taken. Next if one is infected then address it with the required steps for that too........

Prevention is better than cure. 

Follow the golden rules - 1. Wear mask even when visited by near and dear ones. 

Excuse given - "but they are our people maam"

Ans : "Try saying that to the virus!"

Mask SHOULD  cover the nose. It being anywhere is not taken as worn by the VIRUS....so don't complain later saying 'but i wore mask maam....'

2. Avoid going to temples, shops, hotels and other public places.

Any explanation you give to go to these places reflects clearly on your poor sense of judgement. And you ALONE  will have to bear the consequences of this judgement.

"But going to temple should protect us no maam..." - NO! No God came down to you to promise you so! If you are infected then enjoy dealing with it on your own. Don't expect even sympathies from me.

We can live without shopping (especially sarees, jewellery, earrings etc...) till this covid passes. Shopping should mean ONLY fruits, vegetables and grocery - nothing more. 

Heal that boredom of yours if you are going crazy because you are not able to go to hotel/shopping /movies etc....

Already had given tips on how to and what to do during this time. Just am giving you the link so that you can go back to old healing techniques......

https://kantipadam.blogspot.com/search?q=List+of+things+we+can+do+during+quarantine 

I think almost all points are covered there. If anything is left out and you remember, share with all.

If I get it later, will share it with you all!

Till then, keep healing, healing and healing. There is almost nothing more we can do in present situation. Use it right and if we get past this time in this present body of ours, we'll have benefitted immensely - that is for sure!

Putting quarantine to good use!

Don’ts during this time:

Don’t watch TV all through the day - At least not the news. Restrict it to 10-15mts daily twice – morn and evening. That’s all! Even WHO suggests that. Other times watch mythological shows that you missed watching. Watch funny shows like Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai etc. laugh, bond, live and enjoy!

# maam, I don’t get time to heal/not enough time for sadhan.

Now you have all the time in the world to heal. Write down your issues in a book. Prioritize them and start healing – one after the other. So, by the time you are out of quarantine you have also healed few of your issues. That way you’ll have more strength to face new issues that would crop up later! Yes, you heard it right. New issues will crop up. Just as ‘once your one desire gets fulfilled, you get two more in its place, like-wise when one issue is resolved some other will come.

“Old water flows out of tub, new water fills”. That is the story of every life!

Let’s go towards hobbies: -

There are activities that we long to do and yet don’t find time to do due to hectic life -style like: reading, knitting, gardening, drawing, music, dance etc.  Spend some time doing ‘that’ which you longed to do since long! Enjoy “you time”. Empty that list you had “things I wish to do”.

And share it with us later. What you did, how you enjoyed and benefited?

Cleaning time:

With all members of the house, it becomes easy, fun and less time consuming. So involve all and clean one shelf/almirah per day. Clean up your house. See how much unnecessary goods were lying in your house. Throw them – sell them – reuse them!

You’ll find things you were searching since long!

You’ll relieve many memories. You’ll have more space at your place.

Your place is sorted, clean and tidy now! That is such a relief and so welcoming!

Take one room at a time and see the difference!

Read all those books you always wanted to! Relax and rewind!

Watch all the shows and movies you wanted to. Enjoy and get healed!

Only condition – as you relax watching shows, movies complete your hands-on and other healings which you can like intention healing, navagraha healing etc. Double benefit!

Points to be noted :

• Pause to think! Are we amassing one thing after another or are we living life to the fullest?
• What does life mean to us? 
• What is the purpose of my life?
• What are the things which matter most to me and what am i doing for that?
• Take time to take stock of your relationships and why they are what they are....

Just a suggestion : Found that few of you come running couple of minutes after 9.30pm and then feel bad /tensed etc. It takes 5-10mts for you to settle down then. But if you sit down for LC by 9.20pm then you are all set by 9.30pm when i start and we can go into healing immediately. That way we'll have more time to heal and more time to do other stuffs too if need be......

set your clocks for 9.20pm and 6.20am to sit in LC. That way you can never go wrong. This way you joining later because of time difference (in various clocks that we own) can also be done away with.......

choose, decide and act accordingly....

Exercise Tips : Those who are not able to do exercise for 1-2 hrs at a stretch for various reason, just do 15mts before every meal and before every healing of ours......you would easily complete more than 1hr /day that way......

Those of you who are WFH and find it difficult to do workouts at home due to large number of people, no exercise equipment etc - just climb step 2-3 floors 3-4 times a day......your cardio for the day is almost taken care of ........do this for 21 days to see the results..........

# I get tired after travelling for 1-2 hrs daily to office.

Now what do you do?

·        Play those games that you longed to with the kids. Involve elders too if they are at home. Bring out those card games, ludo, snake and ladder, scrabble, caroms etc.

“But maam shops are not open!” Really? Is that your response? So all these years you didn’t buy any of these games and yet you kept complaining about ‘not having time to play’? Fine! Those who don’t have these games play games we used to play with sea shells (gavvalu), tamarind seeds, word games, name, place, animal, thing etc.

Run around the house and play some games. Good exercise + fun! Double benefit! If you actually desire then you’ll find ways to enjoy this time with the family. You’ll make it ‘golden period’ of your family time.

Cook – it applies to both men and women. Cook new dishes every other day! Feed family the new dishes. Enjoy the process. Learn experiment and be satisfied! Cooking is not the “job” which is a necessary must. It is ‘an essential requirement for survival’. 

Then why not make it “an art”? Why not make a compulsion an art and enjoy that?

Remember, there will be compulsion all through life in all phases of life.

Anyone who has reiki degree be it even ‘Master or Grand Master’ is not a reiki channel in real sense. One who knows to turn a compulsion into a play or an art knows the art of living. He is a spiritual person! He is a reiki channel! He turns his pain into pleasure.

One who knows not or doesn’t want to turn compulsions into play or a piece of art is a ‘moorkha’ who is adamant fool! He suffers at every point of life. He may be a reiki channel or any other sadhak. If he doesn’t want to turn or see an opportunity of self growth and self expression in every situation then he is going to suffer being in this world and after too! No master or God in his life can heal him/direct him out of his crisis/save him/protect him/guide him.

Masters/scriptures/mythology etc can only show how to be. They show where our thinking is wrong. They can show us our frailties. They can’t walk on our behalf. They can’t change our fate if we stick to our demands and way of living and expecting to things go our way!

Questions answered : 

• How to have quality time with family and self?
• What are the activities I can do during this period of lockdown?

Points to be understood :

• If I am not comfortable being with 'myself' and 'my family' then where can I be comfortable with?
• Where am I searching for this bird called happiness?
• Who do I think will give me peace and happiness in life?
• If I am not happy, comfortable just relaxing at home, trust me I can never be comfortable, happy, peaceful ever in life - be it heaven or wherever you presume you would be!!!

Note : Share your experiences of reiki atleast one per day till life comes back to normalcy.....

Again and again I repeat, if I can be taking 5-6 hrs of my time daily unnecessarily for you, can't you at least take few minutes to put up your experiences with reiki......

or I think even I can stop writing and doing session with you all and get back to living happy, relaxing time with self for self..........

Putting Quarantine to good use!

Healthy body means less medical expenses. It also means you are able to explore and experience life fully. It also means your immune system is good and you are protected not just against ‘this virus’ but all other diseases you are prone to in life.

After the quarantine also things wouldn’t come back to normalcy immediately. We wouldn’t go back to our old lives. No, not possible on so many accounts. We’ll have longer working hours may be. And that too for lesser pay may be! To work for longer hours we need stamina. We can’t rest then. So rest now. Build your strength, stamina, health now! And then when the time to go out and work comes don’t crib about working hours. Don’t ask for free time. Don’t desire ‘vacation’. This break must have killed the desire of ‘no work’ at least for couple of years. You should go back loving your work like never before. Work for the sake of work! So build that body ready to go on that war footing working mode!

Next the pollution levels have come down drastically. It is noticed by so many. The rough cough, gale ki kharash (roughness or irritation in throat), early morning sneezing of many has come down surprisingly. And, that too without any meds.

Use this to your advantage. Do pranayamam regularly without fail at least for ½ an hour daily. If you can’t do for ½ an hour/ day then do 15 mts morn and evening i.e., 15mts twice daily. You can do it immediately after ‘suryopasana’ (homam) that most of us reiki channels do**. If you are reiki channel then do rebirth meditation with selfishness and hatred daily (during this COVID time). That way you complete rebirth + homam in one go. And if you can do the same on terrace or balcony (basically basking in sunlight) then your vitamin D quota also completes for the day. This would address so many of your problems in one go!*

(*Disclaimer -  these all are just suggestions to make good use of quarantine. I don’t become ‘BOUND’ to show results in your life if and when you follow them the way you want it)

(Exceptions : mothers to be and just delivered this doesn’t apply to you. Eat as you like and should. Exercise ONLY when Dr. okays it. You have done a noble job of giving birth to a life. We love you however you look now, so relax! We can get you back to shape when it is time to!)

(Doing homam** - those who are not doing homam for various reasons no need to give explanation to me…..) 

Contd....

Note : Share at least one healing experience of yours daily till this covid situation lasts.......i am spending 3-4 hours only on blog, can't you at least spend 5-10mts writing/sharing one of your any reiki experience.......

questions answered : 

• How to get back our health?
• How to put this free time to good use?

Points to be understood : 

• If we don't take time to take care of our body then we have to take time for our illness.
• At best, most of the illness can be avoided by keeping our body healthy.
• Healthy lifestyle, right eating and sleeping habits, right breathing can keep us away from most of the modern day diseases we live with.
• Body can be repaired if only mind puts in effort in the right direction
• Healthy body should always take priority over the money we wish to earn.
