Playing with fire

On a daily basis we receive umpteen invites to events on spiritual enlightenment,healing,meditation and intuitive workshops.

Little do people know what they could be getting into and the dangers linked to a sudden opening out to higher energies.

A layman is enthusiastic,searching seeking yet as swami Sivananda says a true seeker or "adhikari"will only find the teacher that can satiate his soul when he rises above the need for name and fame,accepts his mistakes,seeks guidance in prayer, and weeps silently asking for intervention.
So unfortunately for the seekers who are on this journey and will not in the first instance find the correct teacher and seek hither and thither for the correct one. Below are my words of caution.

Not all presenters in these events have done sufficient practices to elevate their souls, yet choose to help others clear theirs.This lapse could create a flutter within a participant triggering them a little yet leaving them wondering why they had taken the effort to be there.So when you choose to attend these events do not look to follow the herd. Listen to your inner guidance by closing your eyes and connecting with your breath.

Secondly in the steps in yoga- asana and pranayama come before meditation. The ancient masters knew that the physical body had to be ready to accept the enhanced energy that comes in during meditation. If the physical body is not ready to receive higher energies the end result could be non dissipation and energy clutter in one space in your body. Making this very difficult for the liver to break down.A being doing meditation needs to before and after the practice move the body or stretch it to make it accepting and then release excess of the higher energy received during meditation.
