Chirakash Dharana Chirakash Dharana is really a type of pure visualization.

However,

It is also a special kind of meditational practice in itself.

Chirakash literally means the space of consciousness.

It is the viewing screen of Ajna Chakra,

The jet black room where psychic phenomena manifest for the benefit of the physical mind.

The link between the consciousness,

The subconscious and the superconscious,

And is the point where the object of meditation is most easily perceived.

The Chirakash is visualized as a black room with four walls,

A floor and a ceiling.

In the floor of Chirakash,

Near the center of the rear wall,

Is a small hole leading downwards.

This is the Shishumna Nadi,

Extending downwards through the lower chakras.

In the front wall is a screen on which visions will appear if you are able to relax the tensions and complexes which now inhabit them.

Chirakash Dharana is a meditation technique which can unlock the gates to the secret realms of awareness,

The stage of mind and states of consciousness which are now beyond our mortal sight.

To him who perfects this kriya comes light and wisdom,

Untamed by the aberrations and limitations of our physical eyes.

Sit in a comfortable meditation posture.

Your spinal cord and head erect,

The hands interlocked or placed on the knees.

Be sure that you can sit motionless for some time without feeling any strain in the physical body.

Be aware of the different sounds taking place around you.

The ticking of a clock,

The moving fan,

My voice reaching you in the form of instructions,

The singing of birds,

The rhythmic sound of melodious music,

People in the background,

Cars driving past.

Become aware of your physical being,

The body,

Total awareness of the body.

Maintain a perpetual flow of awareness of the physical body.

Be sure that you are aware of the physical body,

Not any part in particular,

But awareness of the body as a whole.

The more aware you are of your physical body,

The steadier the mind becomes.

Then switch to your breathing.

At the same time maintain awareness of the body.

Perpetual flow of awareness of the physical being should continue.

In addition,

Become aware of the breathing process,

The natural effortless breathing process,

By looking within and becoming aware of your breath.

You don't have to breathe.

The process is natural and automatic.

As you observe,

You notice the breath is sometimes deep,

Sometimes long,

Sometimes coarse,

Sometimes short,

And the breathing goes on.

Awareness of breathing,

As well as maintaining awareness of the physical body.

The space of Chidakash Switch to the essence of your being,

The space of Chidakash that is within you,

Space that permeates every atom of your physical and mental being.

The space of Chidakash that is within you,

Space that permeates every atom of your physical and mental being.

Space that is not within and that is not without,

But that is everywhere.

It is not the space in front of your forehead.

It is not the space over your head.

It is not the space behind your head.

It is not the space of the heart.

It is not the space of the abdomen or navel.

It is not the space of the lower part of the body.

But it is the total space which includes the physical being in totality.

When you are aware of Chidakash,

You are aware of the space which is in the body,

Throughout the body,

Permeating the whole body,

Including the whole body,

Not a particular point in the body.

Become aware of Chidakash,

The totality of your formless existence,

The space in which your body exists.

It is black in colour.

It is formless.

Try to maintain awareness of the colour of Chidakash.

What is the form of the Chidakash colour?

Is it black,

Light black or any other colour?

It changes from moment to moment.

It changes from moment to moment.

The colour of Chidakash changes from colour to colour.

If you observe minutely the colours that are passing,

You will find that the colour is changing very,

Very swiftly.

Sometimes it is difficult to keep pace with the moving colours and vibrations of the colours.

Sometimes they are distinct and sometimes they are not distinct.

You can't understand them,

You can't see them,

You can't read them.

These colours are not the same every day.

At this moment,

Tomorrow,

The colour of your space,

The colour within,

Will not be the same as it is now.

Try to be aware of the quickly changing colours,

Overwhelming colours,

Overpowering colours passing through your Chidakash.

Chidakash is a formless existence that supports your physical being,

But it has colour.

If you look at it attentively,

If you remain aware of Chidakash,

You will find colour vibrations moving very fast.

These colours are symbolic expressions of the life force within you.

Try to be aware of these colours.

Chidakash is the formless existence,

The formless essence,

The formless reality of your physical being.

It is not the Chidakash which you see in front of your forehead.

It is not the space,

Chidakash,

Which you see at the top of your head.

It is not the space behind your head.

It is not in the region of your heart,

Navel or back.

It is not the space in the lower part of the body.

It includes the Chidakasha of every centre.

Total Chidakash.

Intensify your awareness.

Then be aware of the colour and say,

I am investigating,

Watching and recording the colour.

If you can read the colour,

Repeat it mentally,

The colour.

If you can't understand,

Say,

I can't understand.

Sometimes the colours are so complex that it is not possible to understand them.

But whether you understand or not,

You should be aware of the colours.

Try to maintain an unbroken and ceasing flow of awareness of this Chidakash.

Chidakash.

Do not let your mental awareness break in between.

Constant,

Unceasing,

Unbroken and spontaneous awareness of the total Chidakash.

Which includes all the aspects so far unknown.

In this formless space,

Your physical body exists.

Chidakash is not the body.

But the body is in Chidakash.

While practising Chidakash Dharana,

You may come across shades of light,

A flash of light,

Any vision or anything or any thought or any object.

But with all that,

Maintain awareness of the whole Chidakash.

If your mind goes to the Chidakash in front of the forehead,

Tell your mind,

I want to be aware of the total Chidakash.

You must understand Chidakash.

And when you are able to read the colours,

Then you should bring your awareness to the centre of the eyebrows and become aware of a cave.

A circular cave.

A circular opening within.

You are aware that it is a cave,

But you are not able to get into it.

Now we repeat the practice again.

Awareness of your physical body.

Intensify your awareness of the physical body.

Awaken the body awareness until you are completely aware of the existence of your body as a whole.

Simultaneously,

Awareness of your natural breathing process.

Watch both body and breath with unbroken awareness.

Continuous unbroken awareness.

Practice this breath awareness with absolute attention,

With absolute care and vigilance.

Then,

Turn to Chidakash,

The space within,

The space without,

The space without form,

The space which is undefined.

You are within that space.

Become aware of the colours.

If you are not able to record the quickly flowing colours,

It does not matter.

But be aware that colours are coming and going with terrific speed from moment to moment.

See the colours change in every part of the body.

Watch them with care and vigilance.

Perception of colour.

Witnessing the colours.

Pursuing the colours.

Noting the colours.

Reading them with care.

This is your main duty now in Chidakash.

When I say Chidakash,

I do not mean the dark area of the inner in front of the forehead or above the head or behind the head or in the back or in the front or below.

I mean the totality of all forms of awareness of Chidakash.

If you are able to understand Chidakash,

You are able to understand the essence of your body.

If you are able to feel it,

You are able to feel the psychic principle in man.

Go to Brumadhya.

Carve a cave with a circular opening and glance at it from a distance.

You see it is dark.

You go near the opening and peep inside.

It is very dark.

Nothing can be seen.

Nothing can be understood.

If by chance,

You went into it,

You could not even see yourself,

That is the deeper aspect of Chidakash.

Now we practice Omkara.

Chant Om seven times.

While producing this Om,

Convert the sound waves into subtle psychic waves.

Become deeply aware of the entire personality and the entire being.

Become deeply aware of the entire personality within Chidakash.

Devoid of physical awareness.

Do not lose awareness of the dark area,

The formless Chidakash.

In between there appears to be flickering a fraction of awareness of my existence,

The body.

Imagine it in this way.

Imagine it in this way.

All around.

All within.

Everywhere.

The inner space.

The body seems to be the form of awareness.

You should do this now while you practice Omkara.

Om.

Om.

Om.

Om.

Gradually take your mind outside.

Become aware of your physical body.

Expand your awareness outside.

Awareness of the sounds.

The movement of people around.

And my instructions,

My voice.

Become extrovert.

That you are aware of outer things.

Listen to the sounds.

You have been practicing Chidakash awareness.

Now relax your body and open your eyes.
