Establishing Sahaja Yoga within us



After experiencing kundalini awakening, it is important to nurture this seed, to help it to grow and establish.

1. Meditate at home: Shri Mataji’s Photograph, you may get from Sahajayoga’s centers near you. Frame the photograph. (avoid black colored or plastic frame). Put the photograph of Shri Mataji on a table and put a lighted candle in front of it. The photograph emits a constant stream of positive, cool vibrations (energy). Raise and “tie up” your Kundalini and put a protective “Bandhan” around yourself. Then, open your hands and place them palmupwards in your lap. Close your eyes. Try to keep your attention relaxed and focused on the top of the head (at Sahasrara). Meditate quietly for 10 to 20 minutes. During this period, allow your mind to be silent; you do not need to say any affirmations or concentrate on anything. You may find your thoughts wandering to past or projected future events. Try to witness them and let go, gradually letting the peace settle in. After meditating, raise your Kundalini again using your hands and put yourself in Bandhan.
This regular practice will help you to develop and maintain a state of inner peace which will last throughout the day as your attention becomes more and more identified with the Spirit within you. You can learn further meditation and clearing techniques for each chakra as you continue your practice of Sahaja Yoga.

2. Attend Sahaja Yoga center: Collective meditation is a more powerful aid to growth. At your local Sahaja Yoga center, you can learn more about the techniques by which we can balance overselves, clear blockages and develop the qualities of the Chakras. Sahaja Yoga centers are always free of charge. We should visit Sahaja Yoga center once in a week.

3. Listen to Shri Mataji's lectures: Shri Mataji has given hundreds of talks in Hindi, English and Marathi, explaning all aspects of the Subtle System and of spiritual life. Her love and wisdom, expressed in these talks, is a great help in our growth.The talks are available on Cassettes and CDs at the centers.

4. Use Sahaja Yoga treatments: These are simple treatments utilizing the power of the elements to balance and clear our Subtle System. Foot Soaking is a very effective treatment. Try a week of meditating, using Foot Soaking in the evening, and you will see the difference.
