tenerife shivyog

Namah shivay although the immensely divine shivir being held at Goa is a highly secretive one too but there are some teachings from it which can be disbursed to anyone and everyone. Infact every sadhak needs to follow these teachings some of which never have been told by Baba ji. Some of them have been elucidated below :

The phrases in quotes are the exact wordings of Baba ji.

"श्री विद्या साधक को मर्यादा पुरुषोत्तम होना होता है! अपने लिए कुछ नियम बनाओ जिनका पालन हर हाल में करना तुम अपना कर्तव्य समझो"

Baba ji said as a Shree Vidya sadhak one ought to lay down certain principles which one should follow as a beholden duty. We must look to emulate Lord Rama who never compromised his ideals even if it meant sacrificing something as important as His wife Sita.
Baba ji listed some essential duties for every relation. Some of them are:

As a Husband-----Never admonish or pillory or ridicule your better half. Treat her as Parvati Ma. Accept her the way she is. Politely put forward your point. Humbly talk to her.

As a Wife-----Never be nag and pester. Never try to teach a lesson to the husband. Carefully listen and fulfill demands of your spouse.

As Children-----Respect your parents. Remember you were helpless at birth and at subsequent stages. They were the ones to rear and care and bring you up to be able to stand on your own in life.

माता पिता का आदर ऐसे करना जैसे ऋषि मुनियों का करना होता है

To Elders -----Always talk in "मधुर वचन " . Do not ever raise your voice to any elder anywhere in the world.

As Siblings----- Show care and concern. There shouldnt be any fear between siblings. Everyone should enjoy their space and freedom.

Towards Opposite Sex----- For Men:1.See women as Devis and not objects.

                                                          2.See young girls as Bala Tripura as a young Goddess.

                                                          3.Do not judge the vital stats.

                                                          4.Always be courteous and chivalrous to women.

                                                          5.Never ever abuse or reprimand a woman.It will have dire consequences to your Shree Vidya sadhna.

                                      For Women: 1.See men as Devs.

                                                         2. Do not portray and depict fear for men.

Baba ji also said that many people say that if a man and woman are alone sexual tendencies are bound to inevitably follow. This He said was a delusion and extremely wrong impression. Sex is a means of procreation and not a foregone conclusion in solitude. It is animal tendency to think about opposite sex as objects of seeking pleasure.

"तुम्हारा इस पृथ्वी पर Unconditional love के अलावा कुछ है ही नही! सिर्फ़ unconditional love तुम्हारा है बाकी सब उधारी है तो जो अपना है उसे कभी मत खोना"

As a Shiv Yogi and more so as a Shree Vidya sadhak do not ever be eager to take treats and parties from anyone. This can become a cause for regression. Finish this pratice.

Completely abolish the practice of receiving gifts even on birthdays or any occasion for that matter.

"अपने को अलंकृत करना भी पशु भाव है"

Immoderate Narcissism He said is also animal nature. One must dress up well and stay well clothed and gleaning but this should not assume proportions wherein you would like people to comment how you look or as it is said "pay you compliments". To stay up in front of mirrors preening and beautifying is sowing seeds of being an animal in the next birth.

"मेरे पास साधना के लिए टाइम नही है"

This Baba ji said is a statement of fools. He said to experience the joys of life and success in this world we have to acknowledge the presence of the almighty without the permission of which not even an electron can move. We have all the time in the world to cater to the distractions of TV, Newspapers and phone nay social networking but we have no time for sadhna. At the same time it doesnt imply that one should shun all worldy tasks and concentrate on meditation per se. An astutely defined balance is to be created.

When someone insults us, we feel inordinate hatred and resentment against that person. This feeling is very strong. The magnitude of strength of such a feeling needs to be brought in sadhna. The desire to be pure should be like the desire to take revenge upon insult.

Be like nature. If you throw garbage, the Earth doesn't eat you up but if someone throws some insult at us, our blood boils in the agony of revenge and retort.

Express gratitude to all of nature

as the trees provide you oxygen, Mother Earth selflessly provides you with space to work and sundy other agents of nature help you live everyday. Thank them everyday without a miss.

"बाहर को अपने आधीन करो, खुद बाहर के आधीन ना बनो !"

Elaborating the above sentence, Baba ji said with new inventions and technologies being dished out everyday, people get excited and become slaves of the mod cons. This must be avoided. Eagerness and excitement for these things should only be to a certain extent.

"मधु कैटभ से बचना"

"Madhu" He said implies listening to undeserving or deserving opprobrium and praise to satiate one's ego. This He said gives fuel to one's inflating ego and is not good for a sadhak who is en route to salvation. So never be hungry for praise. If praise comes inadvertently to you just thank the almighty. Do not bask and wallow in the false ego. "Kaitabh" on the other hand he elaborated means making statements like "I dont get along with that person" or "I like and love everyone but not him/her" . Love everyone. All are creations of God. Just that they forget their real self. In no way should this make them a character of hatred in your eyes. Remember before entering Shiv Yog you too were alike.

"भगवान बनो धनवान नही"

This Baba ji said was paramount since post 2012 all the richness and luxuries shall be rendered null and void. What will go along is your sadhna and divinity. Not to forget purity of intention and thought . This He quickly added did not in any way mean that one plonks oneself on a sofa taking shelter in the excuse that since everything is ending lets sit back. The mere intention to do such a thing is venomous.

"Dont be a corrector. Lay more emphasis on emotions"

Baba ji said it is almost a habit to correct everyone in every manner possible. One should be only interested in correcting oneself.

"Stay happy and make others happy"

"अपने हर कर्म से पहले अपने से explanation माँग लेना की इस कर्म करने के पीछे मेरी क्या भावना है ?"

Baba ji said if upon doing the karma you will feel fear, anger, greed, revenge, resentment, non forgiveness and any other negative emotion, just backtrack. Back out from doing such an action because this will cause unimaginable harm to you as a sadhak.

"अज्ञानी को अज्ञान मिले, मिल मिल बाँछे ज्ञान"

When you encounter a misdeed or misinformation about someone , it is the innate propensity to go and distribute it to others and see their reactions. Never do this. Anyone who does this is inviting great pain and sorrow.

Never criticize anyone. Not even politicians. They karma becomes your part when you talk about them.

"तुम्हे भगवान ने दो हाथ किसी को लताड़ने , पीटने या किसी के लिए ग़लत करने के वास्ते नही मिले हैं. ये किसी की सेवा और किसी और के आँसू पोंछनें के लिए दिए हैं"

Baba ji also said in jest and jokingly that the residents of Goa who used to party on Hip Hop songs now do so on Maheshasur Mardini MUCH TO THE AMUSEMENT OF THE AUDITORIUM.

Baba ji made everyone dance so much including Geetanjali ji and Ishan ji and requested everyone to enjoy, party and dance everyday in life.

CONTINUATION 1

Baba ji announced a Shree Vidya 2 course in Singapore in January next year.
One sadhak asked how a certain saint got astray from the divine path despite being a brilliant Guru with exceptional teachings. To this Baba ji said the saint was a classic case of how spirituality can destroy you if you choose the wrong path. Baba ji said all the vedas and puranas are symbolic. The Samudra Manthan or churning of the ocean milk to extract beneficial ratnas or gems which is much talked in Bhagwat puran is nothing but symbol of purity as it happens in sadhna.

There are 4 stages of purity when churning takes place via meditation.
At first, the Halaahal vish or toxic poison comes out. That means in the first stage of sadhna, all negative emotions, habits etc are removed.
After removal of Tamogun or negative qualities, comes overpowering of Rajogun or kingly qualities of sex, enjoyment of worldly joys , pleasures, success in the world, high position of authority etc.
The third stage is when the Rajogun is overpowered. This is followed by inculcation of good qualities in oneself or mastering the Satogun.
The fourth and the final stage is Amrit manthan or nectar churning that means rising above all the qualities to reach the state of Nirgun or without any quality.

The saint, Baba ji said got stuck when all his bad quialities were removed. The rising consciousness he manoevred in the wrong direction. He was entangled in the sensual pleasures and thus given the name sex Baba. The Shakti soon ate him up and his life was messed up and he was the sole reason of his own undoing.

Baba ji said all these things can most certainly afflict us Shiv Yogis too if we dont channelize our energies in the right direction.

SHREE VIDYA 3

Baba ji is extremely impressed with the arrangements for a shivir of such enormity being held with so much ease and comforts that He has announced plans to conduct Shree Vidya 3 next year at this time.

श्री विद्या करने के बाद और कर्मों के बक्षण के बाद भी मैने देखा है की साधक लोग अपनी सोच और तमस से attach हो रखे हैं!

Baba ji said that many habits and thinking of sadhaks is still not upto the level that He reckons it should be for a Shiv Yogi. He said all Shiv Yogis particularly Shri Vidya sadhaks need to work very hard to change their mindsets, negative , skewed thinking and tendencies to get angry,lusty,greedy and egoistic. Baba ji said he was hopeful that all the sadhaks will make an effort to change themselves and not remain stuck in the prison of negative qualities.

Most of you would be coming to Shree Vidya 3 only with massive changes in your way of thinking and intention do do things and if not then its the wrong path you will choose deliberately

In the auditorium itself Baba ji openly announced that most of the sadhaks wont be coming for Shree Vidya 3 if they refuse to change their thinking and negative mindset. For Shree vidya 3 Baba ji said only those shall come who are really pure and have mastered Shree Vidya 2 and he sincerely hoped that changes are brought for as many sadhaks to do the most powerful shivir ever.
Baba ji is introducing a technology wherein Shree Vidya 3 can be done by only those who have done Shree Vidya 2 by swapping of the cards. So it is a request to all those who do Shree Vidya 2, do not lose your ID cards if you wish to do Shree Vidya 3.
Also Baba ji said that only a few choicest of sadhaks who excel in the Shree Vidya 2 shall be called for Shree Vidya 3. He said He will be preparing sadhaks for the higher Shree Vidya 3 by doing weekly courses at DLF ashram or Lucknow Ashram for those who have already done Shree Vidya 2.
Baba ji would not be taking Samadhi in May next year. His tapa or meditation time will start in April so he will remain secluded and will come out of the deep meditation once a month to take a shivir or two.
Time and again He said that he wanted sadhaks to grow more spiritually. He said there is massive scope for improvement. MAJORITY OF THE SADHAKS DONT LET GO. THEY ARE ATTACHED SO MUCH TO THEIR SORROWS AND MISGIVINGS. This He said needs to change if Ascension has to to happen.

CONTINUATION 2

"जैसा अन्न वैसा मन "

VEGETARIANISM vs NON VEGETARIANISM

Almost as if Baba ji understood the question in so many sadhaks' mind what to eat ---Veg or Non veg. Baba ji explained that at the time of killing, the poultry animal secretes Adrenalin which is a fight or flight hormone secreted when immense fear and anxiety is being experienced. The animal is very afraid and intolerant at that time. Whoever consumes fish and chicken starts to develop these feelings of fear,intolerance and more of adrenalin secretion.
In the same vein Baba ji added that a better parameter to gauge if a person is Veg or Non veg is the kind of language and behaviour one has towards others. If you harbour only negative emotions like jealousy, anger and fear towards others you are pure non veg. If you on the other hand have only unconditional love and kindness towards others, consider yourself in the bracket of vegetarians.
Babaji absolutely forbade a Shiv yogi from beef & pork.He said that red meat is d most horrible ,as its the meat of a mammal whch has great love for its children ,as it is the species whch is capable of the act of suckling which creates a great bond among mother and child.When slaughtered,the mother has the fear for her young ,this fear remains in the red meat which is responsible for many diseases and loss of spiritual powers
Also consumption of red meat he said ,led to karmic baggage .The white meat he says carry less negetive energy , of which fish the least , so if a sadhak , is in the habit , till he uplifts he may indulge in white meat , but never red meat.
Baba ji advised all sadhaks to start eating unpolished rice as it is readily absorbed by the body.

Role of the water element(element of Swaddhisthan Chakra) in our lives

Baba ji said not only physically but astrally also we are made up of 70% water element. As we age, the water elements starts dissipating at a rapid rate as a result, the skin starts to sag and wrinkles start to show up. Alongwith contamination, through feelings of lust and desire the Swaddhisthan chakra starts getting polluted by deposition of black energy ( and in Baba ji's words "organisms of polluted astral water")
Baba ji reminded all doing Praan Kriyas daily helps retain the astral water in the body too.

A shiv yogi should never lust for what is not his , he should not eye others belongings . As this leads to destruction.

"I am Shiva and you are Shiva"

Baba ji said if we consider everyone including ourselves as Shiva, we wont pass judgments and criticize others.
When Baba ji said someone shouts at you or gets angry at you just simply say "waah Shiv ji aaj to badey mood men ho".
Saying Namah shivay implies bowing to the Shiva within the other person. And if all are Shiva you are bowing in front of yourself only so this practice opens up the Aanahat chakra.
Shiva is Nirgun and so if you ever feel sad or dejected just say I am Shiva and I cant be sad. My innate state is to stay happy alal the time. Sad---chit--anand or forever blissful.

Anger Our Greatest enemy

Baba ji said that anger means you are very weak internally. When the inner consciousness is weak, it tries to defend itself through the channel of harsh words or "katu vachan". Never do this. Do deep meditations and your internal self will become stronger and anger would gradually subside.
Energy expended while admonishing or venting your anger at others is equivalent to drain your energy in multiple sensual activities. So abstain from anger which is rubs salts on the false ego's wounds.

Never complain . Complaining is passing a judgment that the situation is bad and it wont change. It is basically resigning to the situation. A Shiv Yogi creates situations and never surrenders to them so always Create. Never complain.

Do your best in all Ashrams of life viz. Brhamcharya by being focused on one carrier and goal. Grehastha by forging a healthy family clan. Vanprastha by reaping the rewards of earlier Ashrams and finally Sanyaas from worldy pleasures and getting ready to embrace the original Father-----Shiva.

The shivir ended on a note of positivity and towards the end when Baba ji was citing the example of getting angry on others, He said for example if you are angry at your son and he misbehaves, never let your anger rule you. The ever so humorous and witty Ishan ji asked His father in his typical light hearted and facetious way "Beta ka hi example kyun har baar" much to the amusement of the gathering. Baba ji replied "Ab biwi (Guru Ma) bhi yahaan baithin hain, Beti (Geetanjali) bhi yahaan baithi hai kiska naam na lun ?" This left the sadhaks in all the more delightful state.
