Mindfulness Meditation

Answers of Svyatoslav Dubyansky to questions from viewers and readers

Question:
Dear Master, please clarify this issue: when I meditate and concentrate on the chakras, I feel only Sahasrara and nothing else.

Answer:
It is very important to feel all seven chakras. Mindfulness in life and meditation also correlates with the sensation of the chakras. Most practitioners cannot feel all the chakras, most often everyone starts by feeling at least one or two chakras. If you only feel the Sahasrara chakra, it means that you have strong spiritual tendencies, which is wonderful. However, it is important to work out other chakras, otherwise you will not be able to reveal many important qualities and aspects in your life, such as family life, work with the energy of money, creative self-realization. It is important to learn and regularly practice the authentic techniques of Kriya Yoga, which will help you to develop all the chekras harmoniously. Any deep result takes time and diligence, without which it is impossible to really work with the chakras.

FAMILY KARMA

Karma is only personal, when we talk about the karma of a clan or family, we mean “ancestral programs” or “birth canals”. Karma is the consequences that our heirs face. The causes of the consequences are the wrong actions committed by a person during his earthly life. The family program is active throughout the life of representatives of seven generations. Therefore, your great-grandfather or grandfather, with his deeds, emotions and thoughts, creates a program for your life.

In fact, the generic program is the information that your ancestors have accumulated over the course of seven generations. Information about their actions, thoughts and emotions is stored on the subtle plane: the sacral, sexual chakra of Svadhisthana, being an important factor that directly affects who you are now and the circumstances of your life. Information about the relationship between husband and wife is also located in the Svadhisthana chakra. Family relationships are built on three levels: physical, psychological and spiritual. Harmonious family relationships arise when there is physical satisfaction, psychological understanding and spiritual unity.

Answers of Svyatoslav Dubyansky to questions from Youtube viewers

Question:
I was initiated into Kriya yoga, and have been practicing with your videos for many years now. You speak? that the lower Dantian is the same as the lower bindu. According to you, the lower bindu is located in the prostate-womb. But how is it that the lower Dantian is located under the navel 2-5 cm, inside the body, all Qigong sources talk about this. The prostate is anatomically located under the bladder, it is approximately the level of the pubic bone, not even close to the lower Dantian. The uterus in women, ideally, according to anatomy, is a level approximately between the navel and the pubic bone, but in reality, in all 99% of women, the uterus is lowered, in old age there is even a prolapse of the uterus through the vagina. How can there be bindu or lower Dantian? It seems to me that the lower bindu is not in the prostate, but 2-5 cm below the navel, as all Qigong sources interpret. But this is Kriya yoga, not Qigong, and Yogi Ramaiah taught you, you know better. Please clarify this extremely important issue for everyone!
Answer:
How to learn to meditate for beginners, how to understand where the chakras and bindu are? First of all, it is important to remember that there are many schools and directions of Qigui and Yoga. Therefore, we must be prepared that in different directions there may be different systems and a different understanding of the location of both the chakras and the bindus. Alas, it often happens that Chinese Qigong teachers deliberately hide the true information from students if they are not immediate relatives. Such is the tradition. This means that the Chinese Qigong masters are well aware of the true location of the lower Dantian, but do not reveal this information. All energy points in the human structure are always manifested quite physically. This is the reason why God created the physical body. The nervous system, internal organs, all this is part of the energy-information system. If the lower bindu (lower Dantian) were just a couple of centimeters below the navel, how would that relate to the body? It is important that this is connected with the manifested system of internal organs.

Kriya Yoga Meditation is the Science of Breathing

An important basis for the breathing system in Kriya Yoga Meditation is Ujaya, the hissing breath. It allows you to inhale and exhale gradually, slowly, consciously. Hissing breath has a therapeutic effect on the entire nervous system and brain. More and more people from different countries are practicing meditation, mantras and yoga, asking philosophical questions. The apparent availability of ancient knowledge does not make it easier to apply, understand, practice.

Goals of Yoga

In ancient times, the famous emperor Janaka lived in India, he was not only a wise ruler, but also a practitioner of meditation and yoga. Once the emperor learned that Sage Ashtavakra had settled in the forest near his city. The emperor instantly left his palace and went on foot to the forest hut of Sage Ashtavakra. Upon entering the shelter of the Sage, Emperor Janaka modestly sat in front of him and asked several important questions about the essence of the spiritual path. This is how a wonderful philosophical text called Ashtavakra Gita appeared. This text is a philosophical conversation between Emperor Janaka and Sage Ashtavakra. Reading texts on the philosophy of Vedanta, one should see the deep meaning. The disciple asks his question, the Guru gives the answer, this is how the ancient texts of Vedanta are built. In relaxation and openness, all unnecessary disappears and eternity remains. Some prefer to call "this" Consciousness, some God. It makes no difference what you call eternity, words are the fruit of human intellect, they give rise to concepts, that is why in the Vedas they sometimes say “That” to describe eternity. The word “That” ideally reflects the transcendence of the Absolute Consciousness.

KRIYA YOGA AND SELF-DEVELOPMENT

Kriya Yoga

The author of the article Mrs. Svetlana Dubyanskaya

Kriya (Kryya) Yoga is an ancient meditation system, significantly accelerating human evolution, leading to Divine self-realization. In ancient times, Kriya Yoga was transmitted by the immortal Maha Yogi Mahavatar Babaji.

In fact, Kriya Yoga has long been known among the Himalayan yogis. In the 19th century, Lahiri Mahasaya, a direct student of Mahavatar Babaji, began to teach his students these techniques openly. At the beginning of the 20th century Paramahansa Yogananda brought this unique knowledge from India to Western countries.

In order to be prepared for the practices of Kriya Yoga meditation correctly, a careful and serious preparation is required. Such detailed preparation and further initiation into the practice of Kriya Yoga is possible in various spiritual schools around the world. This article is for those who want to learn more about the history and philosophy of Kriya Yoga.

Kriya Yoga: what is it?

Kriya Yoga is the oldest system of meditation and breathing exercises. As a result of the practice of Kriya Yoga meditation, the kundalini energy is awakened. Kriya Yoga consists of a huge number of techniques that are based on conscious breathing and power of visualization. For many centuries, Kriya Yoga meditation techniques have been passed down from high gurus to worthy students. Nowadays, knowledge and techniques are gradually becoming more open and accessible to larger audience of spiritual seekers. The source of Kriya Yoga techniques is Mahavatara Babaji, the greatest immortal Himalayan Master.

Kriya in Sanskrit means "action." In essence, this means the movement of energy through energy channels and chakras. We are accustomed to believing that an action is physically performed, but in reality there is also an inner action. For those who go through the path of spiritual evolution, it is necessary to practice meditation and mantras, which are inner actions.

True Self and the Golden Body

Mahavatar Babaji provides a high service to all mankind. Babaji's secret cave ashram is located in the Himalayas, however he can appear anywhere in the world in order to meet his students. In the 50s and 60s of the 20th century my Guru Yogi Ramaiah lived in the Himalayan ashram of Babaji, where he studied the philosophy of the ancient sages and the practices of Kriya Yoga.

Yogi Ramaiah did not advertise himself during his lifetime, his task was to train only a small group of students. He had a strange and tough character. Yogi Ramaiah could be rude and swear at his students, his behavior was eccentric which is why most visitors, resenting his strange tricks, left his ashram.

Near Yogi Ramaiah there were only those few who, according to the divine plan, were to receive his amazing instructions on the essence of spiritual evolution and receive training in the ancient practices of Kriya Yoga. Yogi Ramaiah taught a narrow circle of students among them people of different nationalities. He conveyed in detail the knowledge and practices of various areas of yoga.
