Me, My Guru - On secret to being happy!

 

Me, My Guru - On secret to being happy!

"Guruji what is the secret to being happy every day of our life?" asked a student.

And the Guru replied "You got to train your mind to be stronger than your emotions, otherwise you will lose to yourself every single time every day of your life!"

Sometimes our Guru said very little. And that was enough!

# happiness, training the mind, mind over emotions, emotions, feelings and pain, pain and suffering, root of suffering,

Question time :

Many of you have been in sadhan for quite some time.

Some of you have taken sadhan seriously and taken to 'self study' and being aware of self...

How has that study effected you and your life?

What did you gain or lose because of that study?

What did you expect from that study and what did actually happen?

on living!

on living!

For August 15th 2022

Independence Day

As done once before (read the link given below) let's do sadhan to commemorate this wonderful day in the history of our country....

This year is so much more special for being 75th year of Independence. So many fought, died and suffered for us to enjoy this Independence today!

And even today so many soldiers and defense personnel are posted in Godforsaken places of extreme cold and hot weather places. Those places don't have any basic comforts. They don't get to eat our 'bajjis, pizzas, icecreams and what not!' ...yet they are serving and doing their duty for mere salaries just out of love for the people of this country which means so much to them....

We don't even know their names. They don't know that we exist and yet our existence is totally and totally dependent on their sacrifices only - not to belittle the sacrifice of their families....

Let's appreciate their acts of dutifulness, service, love for country and selfless acts with doing Reiki for them.

Let's send Reiki to all our defense forces as a form of gratitude for their service to our Nation.

Our Guruji's Birthday!

August 15 being our Guruji's birthday - let's celebrate it in every way we want to. Cut a cake or Make sweets in your homes...share it with one and all....

Distribute minimum packets of say 3-5 at least of food to the people on street......show them our Guruji's photo and tell them it is His Birthday....(this is optional - those who are afraid of telling or sharing the same need not do) - just distribute in such cases....

Sadhan Procedure

We can do it two ways -

1.Send Reiki to our Guruji and other Gurus like Mahavatar Babaji, Guru Govind Singh, Paramacharya, Ramanujacharya and so on daily from 10-1015pm (or any other time convenient to you)

and

2. Chant MM 108 malas from today till 5th Sep 2022 (next month - it being Teachers Day). And we will dedicate the same to all these people.

Request 

Please count the number of malas and tell me the number at the end of this sadhan day. I need that to close the sadhan....

Sending wishes to you all for making this choice and for strength to be able to complete the sadhan as undertaken by you all effortlessly...

May you all enjoy this process of being grateful to the above as always and more....

# August 15th, Dr.Mikao Usui, Independence Day, Gratitude to Gurus, being thankful to our frontline workers and fighters, on being grateful, giving and sharing, on healing self, on healing others, on using Reiki to clear our debts, sharing and healing is love, Universal oneness, We are the World!

On listening!

 

On listening!

The Mystic says "When my silence overflows into words and my words stem from my silence - know I speak The Truth, of Truth and am In Truth!"

On talking and silence!

 

On talking and silence!

The mystic says "I have lots to say and yet I choose to remain silent!

My words don't reach the listener. For every listener listens to what he wants to listen, what he chooses to listen. No, no one is here to listen to what I have to say!

And so, I went silent! And the world started calling me "Great One" for having gone silent!!??

They didn't understand my words. They don't listen to my silence!

I don't know how to reach them. I tried both words and silence and I have failed in both. 

Into my words they put their meanings. And my silence went deaf on their ears!!!??

And now, I don't talk and and I don't say through silence too!"

# being still, on silence, words and their purpose, on talking and listening, understanding, beingness, being one with the Nature, awareness,

Sadhan time Again!

 

Sadhan time Again!

Tomorrow i.e., Monday 1st Aug and 2nd Aug - let's heal the Earth as she requires healing so badly.....

The timings is 9-9.30PM. Just half an hour...

Those who can, just chant Mrutunjaya Mantram the whole of half an hour while sending reiki to Mother Earth. 

Those who can't sit at that time for any reason, chant 3 malas at any time of the day while healing the Mother Earth on these two days....

Those who want to, can continue to heal the entire week too......

Those who can't chant Mrutunjaya Mantra for any reason - just chant "OM Shanthi, shanthi, shanthihi" 

OR

"chant Light Invocation"

which ever is easier for you....

You can share your experiences if any after this exercise.....

On kindness!

 

On kindness!

Kindness is about lending our strength to the one who lacks it..... instead of giving the other what he deserves!
