Shambhavi Mahamudra, A True Miracle

Sadhguru explains the nature of how the human system functions and how that can be positively influenced through yoga, to the point that one's life can happen in miraculous ways. He goes on to say that anything you don't understand you call a miracle. If you allow your inner core to find expression miraculous things will happen naturally.

Yogi, mystic and visionary, Sadhguru is a spiritual master with a difference. An arresting blend of profundity and pragmatism, his life and work serves as a reminder that yoga is a contemporary science, vitally relevant to our times.

Do you see this body,

As we've been going through this again and again to the same point,

When it was born it was so small,

Now it became this much.

Definitely you didn't need any external stretching help to get it to this size,

Isn't it?

That which is the source of creation,

What you refer to as the creator,

Seem to be functioning from within you,

Isn't it so?

Yes?

The creator is functioning,

That means the manufacturer of this body and this existence seems to be functioning from within you.

If the manufacturer is inside,

If you allow him to function,

Fixing small flaws in the body,

You think it'll be a problem?

So Shambhavi Mahamudra is just creating a passage so that your innermost core functions.

If you allow it to function,

The nature of this in yoga,

We refer to your innermost core as the bliss body.

People have always talked for ages that if you come in contact with God,

You will become blissful,

You know,

Brahmanand.

You know,

They've been talking about this.

See it's different ways of presenting it.

Your innermost core is referred to as bliss body.

Now all we are trying to do is,

The physical body,

The mental body,

The pranic body and the etheric body,

We are aligning it in such a way so that the innermost core within you,

The bliss body,

Finds expression.

The Shambhavi is not creating ecstasy.

The Shambhavi is just aligning these four so that this one,

The source of creation,

Finds expression.

If the source of creation within you,

The creator,

Finds expression,

Fixing your heart,

Liver or kidney,

You think it's a big problem.

Manufacturer,

When he comes out and begins to function,

Everything is fixed.

You will see miraculously health will become okay.

I can show you thousands and thousands of people who come out with their ailments just like that,

Like a miracle.

Is it a miracle?

Anything that you don't understand,

You will call it a miracle,

Isn't it?

Suppose you don't know what is electricity and I tell you,

You just watch this,

I'm going to press that wall and this hall will be flooded with light.

Would you believe me?

You won't believe me.

You will say,

No,

Such things are not possible.

Now if I press it and suddenly there's light everywhere,

Now you think either I am son of God,

Messenger of God or God himself depending upon which culture you come from,

Isn't it?

Anything that you don't understand is a miracle in your understanding.

Either there is no miracle in life,

Everything happens between cause and effect or everything is a miracle.

Isn't this life a miracle?

You and me sitting here on this round planet which is going at a tremendous speed,

Is it not a miracle?

We sitting here and talking all this nonsense,

Is it not a miracle?

So if you look at it,

If you have eyes to see,

Everything is a miracle or nothing is a miracle.

These are two ways to approach life.

These are two forms of yoga.

One is to see everything as sacred.

Another is to see everything as utter nonsense.

But now your problem is what you like is sacred,

What you don't like is nonsense.

That's a problem.

That's a trap.

Everything is sacred.

This is a beautiful way to live.

Everything is nonsense.

That is also a very beautiful way to live.

What these people are sacred,

These people are nonsense.

This will destroy you.

Reviews

Everything is a miracle AND this share is uplifting, thought provoking and a rich blessing. Thank U! www.gratefulness.org, ahimsa

May U choose 2 B happy, MAY U choose 2 B free of suffering (sources of suffering = body and/or mind, merely 2 of our 19+ employees, not who we are),
May U choose 2 find balance, live the width and length of life in a life serving manner with “balance” rather than merely being unengaged, life alienating, spectator,
May U choose 2 live life, how a river flows, carried by the surprises of it's own unfolding (John O'Donohue)!

I was introduced to Kriya YOGA when reading “the untethered soul”, author: Micheal Singer, www.tou.org which led me to the “Surrender Experiment” which led me to “the Autobiography of a Yogi”, author ✍️ Paramanhansa Yogananda, www.Yogananda.org, Self Realization Fellowship.

Some of our 19+ personal employeeS, assistants, include our ABTs:
1. our awarenesses
2. our breath
3. our thoughts (t)
4. our anger,
5. ANYthing we accumulate,
6. our depression (self will regarding the present moment),
7. our emotions = (thoughts + feelings)
8. our energy body,
9. our fears (self will regarding the future),
10. our imagination,
11. our memories,
12. our mind,
13. our physical body,
14. our physical energies,
15. our resentments (self will regarding the past),
16. our sensory body,
17. our self pity (self will regarding the present moment),
18. our suffering (body or mind’s thoughts)
19. our words,

Fortunately we can EACH employ our ABT’s {awarenesses plus our breath, plus our thoughts} to move from untruths to truth.

Sadhguru introduced me to Isha Kriya yoga, a fabulous opportunity to end suffering of the mind, the body. Curiously, what other suffering exists?

Sadhguru liveS a life of service, planting millions of trees, just for example. He recently published the text, “Karma”.

Another worthy read includes his manual 4 living, “Inner Engineering: A Yogi's Guide to Joy”, aka unconditional happiness.

Sadhguru’s numerous talks, www.insighttimer.com, www.isha.sadhguru.org, www.innerengineering.com, www.Ishafoundation.org, www.ishahomeschool.org and other efforts (U-tube videos) remind us that, “As there is a science and technology to create external well-being, there is a whole dimension of science and technology for inner well-being.” Self responsibility rocks!

“ ..... Acceptance is the answer to ALL my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing or situation- some fact of my life -unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it was is supposed to be at this moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing, happens in GOD’s world by mistake. Until I could accept my ______ {ANY compulsivities including alcoholism, debting, drugging with nicotine etceteras, hoarding, overeating, www.oahop.org, tardiness etceteras}, I could NOT ____ {experience abstinence, sanity to ANY degree, stay sober, timeliness etceteras}; unless I accept life completely on life’s terms, I cannot be happy. I need to concentrate not so much on what needs to be changed in the world as on what needs to be changed in me and my in attitudeS.” (Alcoholics Anonymous Big Book, pg 417, paragraph 1).

May U choose to live without regret(S). As a hospice nurse, www.bronnieware.com, identified 5 MAJOR regrets:
1. I wish I had the courage to live a life TRUE to myself, NOT the life others expected of me.
2. I wish I had the COURAGE to not work so hard.
3. I wish I had the COURAGE 2 express my feelings.
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
5. I wish I had the COURAGE 2 let myself B happier! My prayer 4 you as U march 4ward is that this list of regrets is not your list of regrets!

Fortunately, the RECOVERED 100 (pages 1-103, VFU chapter, pgs 567-8, www.aa.org) shared a “way of living that has its advantages for all {pg xiii, paragraph 1”} so that lives can be solution oriented, of service, rather than burdened with self-will, BEing self-serving and self-seeking! enJOY the journey!

Resentment= self will regarding the past,

FEAR(s) = (False Experiences Appearing Real) = self will regarding the future,

self-pity and depression = are frequently indicative of self-will in this present, precious moment VERSES “how can I B of service”?

A combination of humour, spiritual wisdom and knowledge... delightful. Thankyou for this meditation 🙏🏼

As ever; marvellous sensible thoughts and help to see beyond our own viewpoint.
