Pathway to PuritySwami Sivananda SaraswatiPurification is the first part of yoga. The means differ in raja yoga, bhakti yoga, hatha yoga and karma yoga. In raja yoga, Patanjali Maharshi calls this kriya yoga, which he defines thus: “Tapah svadhyayeshvarapranidhanani kriya-yogah – Mortification, study and surrendering the fruits of work to God, are called kriya yoga.” The rules of yama, niyama, asana, pranayama come under mortification or tapas. In hatha yoga, there are six purificatory actions, viz., dhauti, bhasti, neti, trataka, nauli and kapalbhati. Purification is of two kinds, internal or mental, and external or physical. Mental purity is more important. Physical purity is also needed. By the establishment of internal, mental purity, cheerfulness of mind, one-pointed mind, conquest of the senses and fitness for the realisation of the Atman are obtained. The practice of kriya yoga destroys the afflictions and distractions of the mind and prepares the mind for entering into samadhi. In the Gita slokas 14 to 16 of Chapter XVII, there is a definition of tapas of the body, speech and mind.

Ethical TrainingYama and niyama are the foundation of yoga. They purify the heart, chitta and mind. They remove the cruel nature of man. Dharana, dhyana and samadhi are absolutely impossible without this primary qualification. If you are established in these, samadhi will automatically follow. “Ahimsa-satya-asteya-brahmacharya-aparigraha yamah – Yama is the practice of non-injuring, truthfulness, non-stealing, continence and non-receiving gifts

conducive to luxury.” “Saucha-santosha-tapah-svadhyaya-Ishvarapranidhanani niyamah – Niyama is the practice of internal and external purity, contentment, mortification, study and worship of God.” Among all these, ahimsa, satya and brahmacharya are very, very important. In brahmacharya, the very idea of lust should not enter the mind. A real brahmachari will not have the least difference in feeling when he touches a stone, a book, a tree or a woman. This is the sign for perfect celibacy. To attain ethical purity, concentration and meditation, you must understand the mind, destroy its evil properties, battle with it and gain victory. Love, truth and purity form the foundation of the edifice of divine life. The temple of divine life has four pillars – meditation, purity, love and righteousness. Lead the divine life and become divine. Life is a journey from impurity to purity, from hatred to cosmic love, from death to immortality, from imperfection to perfection, from slavery to freedom, from diversity to unity, from ignorance to eternal wisdom, from pain to eternal bliss, from weakness to strength. Self-purification is the passport to the glorious foreign land of Eternal Bliss. Divine life is not possible without self-control and self-purification. Self-control augments energy, vitality, vigor and mental strength. Purity of mind leads to perfection. There must be constant endeavor to keep the mind ever pure. You will have

to check the rising vrittis of the mind and keep them under your control. Service to Guru, sadhus, poor and the sick persons is a sure remedy or sovereign specific for rapid purification of oneself. Kind charitable acts with bhava are of paramount importance for the purification of heart for the evolution in the spiritual path. Purify yourself. Silence the bubbling senses. Quiet the mind. Silence the thoughts. Still the outgoing tendencies or energies of the mind. Discipline the indriyas. Keep them under perfect control. Subjugate them through viveka and vairagya. Lead the life of a sannyasi at home. Train yourself to hardships and sufferings. Reduce your wants. Do not spend much on your personal expenses. Make the mind free from egoism, desire, craving, attachment. You will attain self-purification.

Goodness, Purity and TruthfulnessConstantly remember, “Through the grace of God, I am becoming purer and purer, every day. Pleasures come but not to stay. Mortal flesh is only clay. Everything will pass away. Brahmacharya is the only way.” The noble soul who always does good to the world and entertains sublime, divine thoughts is a blessing to the world at large. A person of good deeds and good, pleasant, sweet speeches has no enemy. If you really want spiritual growth and salvation, do good to those men who attempt to poison or hurt you. Purity leads to wisdom and immortality. Purity is the best jewel of a yogi. It is the best and the greatest treasure of a sage. It is the best wealth of a devotee. Practice of compassion, charitable acts, kind services purifies and softens the heart, turns the heart-lotus upwards and prepares the aspirant for

the reception of the Divine Light. Japa, kirtan, meditation, charity, pranayama can burn all sins and purify the heart quickly. Truth is the highest wisdom. Truth stands even if there is no public support. Truth is eternal. Truth reigns Supreme. Those who are truthful and pure, do not die. Those who are untruthful and lustful are as if dead already. You must have a pure mind if you want to realise the Self. Unless the mind is set free and casts away all desires, cravings, worries, delusion, pride, lust, attachment, likes and dislikes, it cannot enter into the domain of Supreme Peace and unalloyed felicity or the Immortal Abode. Mind is compared to a garden. Just as you can cultivate good flowers and fruits in a garden by ploughing and manuring the land and removing the weeds and thorns and watering the plants and trees, so also you can cultivate the flower of devotion in the garden of your heart by removing the impurities of the mind such as lust, anger, greed, delusion, pride, and watering it with divine thoughts. Weeds and thorns grow in the rainy season, disappear in summer, but their seeds remain underneath the ground. As soon as there is a shower, the seeds again germinate and sprout out. Even so the vrittis or modifications of the mind manifest on the surface of the conscious mind, then disappear and assume a subtle seed-state, the form of samskaras again become vrittis either through internal or external stimulus. When the garden is clean, when there are no weeds and thorns you can get good fruits. So also when the heart and the mind are pure, you can have the fruit of good deep meditation. Therefore cleanse the mind of its impurities first. If you do not clean a plate daily it will lose its lustre. It is the same with the mind too. The mind becomes impure if it is not kept clean by the regular practice of meditation.

ARADHANA Yoga of the heart 7 Sep/Oct2013

As a small bulb cannot withstand excessive electric voltage, so the nerves and the heart are not ready to receive the cosmic current when the mind is not thoroughly purified. Wait patiently. Carry on the purifying process vigorously. The heart lit up with the flame of spiritual aspiration and perfumed with the scent of devotion is the rarest acquisition of man. Therefore, endeavor hard to purify the lower self and attain supreme success.

Destroy the Impurities The six passions are termed mala, the impurities of the mind. They are – kama, krodha, lobha, moha, mada and matsarya. Removal of mala is purification of the antahkarana, chitta-shuddhi. When the mala is completely removed, the instinctive mind dies away, and the sattvic mind, higher manas remains. A pure mind is Brahman itself. Just as camphor in the presence of fire is turned into fire and absorbed in fire when burnt, so also a mind when purified becomes of the nature of Brahman. Just as water in the presence of salt, when a lump is placed in a basin of water, becomes saltish, so also mind in the presence of Brahman, when purified, becomes of the nature of Brahman. Mind, when purified by the removal of six passions, becomes your Guru. There is a voice from the mind for every doubt that occurs in your buddhi. Train yourself to hear minutely with care the subtle, silent voice. All knowledge comes from within. Purity of mind, vairagya, annihilation of ego, burning aspiration and steadfastness are essential for God-realisation. Without purity, faith, devotion, dispassion and unceasing effort, freedom or emancipation cannot be attained. If you are established in purity of heart, all defects and weaknesses will vanish by themselves. O Ram! Let thy life be a radiance of purity now and forever. Purify thy mind in the flame of devotion and wisdom. You need neither art, nor science, neither study, nor erudition for God-realisation, but faith, purity and devotion. Purity of heart is a gateway to God. With simplicity and love in your heart, with truth, fearlessness and purity, with devotion and meditation, you can reach the realm of immortal bliss and everlasting peace. Become pure; be good, humble, faithful and devoted. Then you will know what God is.

PurificationofConsciousnessSwami Satyananda Saraswati

In yoga you try to withdraw your consciousness so that the field of knowledge becomes narrower in the realm of the visible world of external knowledge. You stop seeing, hearing, feeling, acting, thinking, and for the time being, you completely disassociate the awareness from objects. When two people are standing opposite each other, the awareness is associated through the medium of the eyes and if one closes his eyes, there is disassociation. However, that is not enough to break the awareness, because one still remembers the other person. Thus, his awareness is associated with the presence of the other person through the mind, rather than the eyes. In yoga, one must withdraw the mind so that a person can be in front of you and even though you have seen him a hundred times, your awareness is completely free of any impressions of him. When you listen to someone speak, your awareness is associated with the flow of words and the sound. If you plug your ears, your consciousness or your awareness which is functioning through the

medium of your senses is disconnected. You don’t hear anymore, but you have the experience or the impressions of all those words which you have heard in your mind. If you withdraw your consciousness from the mind, then all the words you have heard in the past and all the knowledge you have gathered through your ears is also completely dislocated from the awareness. This is how the process of purification works. Please note the word ‘purification’, because it is always understood with ethical and moral background, but it should not be understood that way. Purification of consciousness is the process in which you free your consciousness from the incoming impressions, the accumulated impressions and also the possibility of the impressions that might be gathered in the future. When you close your ears, your mind becomes free from the external sound. When you close your eyes, your mind becomes free from the visual perceptions, the occular perceptions. If you withdraw your mind, your mind becomes free from thoughts. But what happens to the experiences of the past? There are thousands of experiences from the past and they are called samskaras in yoga. These impressions which lie in the subliminal body of man decide the mode of function of his awareness. Awareness functions in the form of passion, greed, memory, pain, pleasure, ignorance, understanding and m i s u n d e r s t a n d i n g , because these are the impressions. You have to scrape these impressions from the mind through involution.

Pratyahara, dharana, dhyana In yoga we first withdraw the senses, we cut off the connections, then the awareness becomes free of the senses. When your consciousness becomes free from sense association, it is known in yoga as withdrawal or pratyahara. Pratyahara is the first state in yoga in which your awareness is disassociated from the sense experiences. Yoga does not begin with asanas, nor with ethics and morality. Yoga begins when all the sense perceptions are withdrawn. This state of pratyahara is where the lower scheme of yoga begins. The second process is the control of the mind. The mind remembers through memory in the form of visions, thoughts, impressions, worries, anxieties, etc. It is easy to withdraw your awareness from the senses, but it is more difficult to control the mind. The mind is very powerful and it is through the mind that you are working on the whole scheme of spiritual evolution. Therefore, in order to consolidate the multi-phase tendencies of the mind, there is a beautiful method known as dharana. Dharana means fixing the mind on an object after the senses have been withdrawn. The object could be gross, semi-gross or

ARADHANA Yoga of the heart 11 Sep/Oct2013

abstract, but the mind must have an object or a center on which to fix itself and gradually focus all of its faculties. Thus the field of the mind is made very narrow. This particular art of yoga is known as the process of negation. This is the process of involution. When the personality is completely withdrawn, it comes to a point. When you have completely withdrawn the associations and your consciousness or awareness to a point, it functions as a cross, a triangle, a flower, a circle, a sound, or exactly like a point. Then you start developing it, you start expanding it. Whereas before you were contracting your consciousness from a circle to a point of awareness, now this point is to be developed into the form of a circle. But the difference is that the first circle was the objective or finite circle and this circle is infinite. This is the process of expansion of consciousness where the sense experiences are completely absent. Therefore, in the practice of yoga, meditation does not only mean that you close your eyes and see something. I think that people do not know how to meditate and that is the whole problem. Many people feel that to sit down and close the eyes is meditation. As a matter of fact, the word meditation is not even the right word. It is not meditation we are talking about here, it is complete awareness. Therefore, when you practise either meditation or awareness, you must start with those practices which withdraw your awareness. Then fix your mind on some object so that it comes to a point and then your awareness also becomes one-pointed. Next try to expand this point to the maximum possible extent. Then the experience of meditation takes place. This is where yoga and Vedanta meet.

SevaandBhakti-theGreatPurifiersSwami Niranjanananda Saraswati

Swami Sivananda, in his practical eightfold path of yoga, has placed service on the first rung. He says that service, or connecting with those in need, helps to purify oneself. He says, do not fight your attachments because they are a part of you, they are you. He gives the example of drops of black ink put in a cup of water. Will the water turn black or will the ink turn watery? If you want to clear the water of the dark ink, add more water. Add more attachment. If your life is a cup and attachments are drops of ink, add more water. When the attachment is diluted and directed not to one but to ten, not to ten but to a hundred, not to a hundred but to a thousand, then the attachment for one is divided by a thousand. You reduce your attachments by including more people in the fold of your life.

When you include more people in the fold of your life, you experience the eternal human connection that transcends intellect, goes beyond feelings, and tells you that you are a part of that unified field known as G-O-D, the source of Generation, Organisation and Destruction. That is consciousness, because it is consciousness that creates, sustains and destroys. That is

ARADHANA Yoga of the heart 13 Sep/Oct2013

also the concept of ishwara pranidhana, leading to purification of the heart, because you have expanded your perceptions and awareness.

Swami Sivananda went one step further when defining seva. He said the purpose of seva should be to purify one’s heart. Purification of the heart comes about when expectations and attachments become refined; they are no longer sensorial or sensual, and do not carry any idea of gain or loss. Instead, you feel for everyone as you do for yourself. There is a shift in perception; it is not a state that can be achieved by saying, “From tomorrow I will be like this.” It is a shift of ideas from self-orientated to self-expressive. Purifying the emotions through seva improves the qualities of the heart, which are further intensified with bhakti yoga. So seva is developed through karma yoga and purity of heart through bhakti yoga. Both go hand in hand.

Expressive yoga Sivananda yoga begins when Patanjali yoga stops. When you practice your yamas, niyamas, asana, pranayama, pratyahara, dharana, dhyana, they represent your attempt to come to perfection. An expression of what you have gained through these is Sivananda yoga. In Patanjali’s yoga also you work with your head: pratyahara, dharana and dhyana; in fact, samadhi is head too. However, in the yoga of Sivananda, when you are expressing the qualities that you have acquired, you use the heart, not the head. Therefore, the first teaching is service. The second teaching is to love. The third is to give, to sacrifice. Fourth is to

Page 16: ARADHANA Yoga of the heart - Rikhiapeeth · ARADHANA Yoga of the heart 3 Sep/Oct 2013 Pathway to Purity Swami Sivananda Saraswati Purification is the first part of yoga. The means

DistributionofprasadtothevillagersofRikhiapeeth,2012

purify. Fifth is to become good. Sixth is to do good. Seventh is to meditate, the same as the seventh teaching of Patanjali. The eighth is to realise, just as for Patanjali it is samadhi. So, the path of raja yoga as outlined by Patanjali represents the sadhana attempt of yoga and the eightfold path of Sivananda represents the expressive nature of yoga.

We have seen this take place when Paramahansaji went to Rikhia. The villagers there were total strangers to us, yet we were mandated to serve them, to fulfil their needs. Love came later, first it was service. Construct a house, help them find employment and develop skills by which they could stand on their own. Then came the component of love when Paramahansaji said that all the young girls and boys of the area would be given the best opportunities. Then came ‘give’. Those of you who have been to Rikhia have seen that. With these comes purification, of intention, emotion, spirit, ideas, thoughts, and of a connection that enables one to become good, which is the fifth stage.

Emotions are double-edged swords. Emotion, which is energy in motion, plays a double role. One role is to bind, the other role is to free. Anger can bind and anger can free.

Page 17: ARADHANA Yoga of the heart - Rikhiapeeth · ARADHANA Yoga of the heart 3 Sep/Oct 2013 Pathway to Purity Swami Sivananda Saraswati Purification is the first part of yoga. The means

ARADHANA Yoga of the heart 15 Sep/Oct2013

Love can bind and love can free. Compassion can bind and compassion can free you also. Management of emotion is the subject of bhakti yoga.

Bhakti yoga is not the ritualistic devotion that one expresses to God. Rather it is the division of feeling, division of an emotion from binding the personality, the consciousness of the individual, to releasing the energy. Emotion cannot be understood logically. Intellect is a function of the head and emotion is a function of the heart. Where we try to combine both, we create confusion. Therefore, yoga has been very clear in stating that the meditative dimensions of yoga such as pratyahara, dharana, dhyana and samadhi deal with transformation of the manifestations of intellect in the realm of the mind. But once the mind is pacified, then purity of heart has to take place. That purity of heart can be achieved by enlarging one’s heart, by expanding one’s feelings, by developing atma bhava. When we are able to see ourselves in other people, then definitely the emotions become bhakti. The emotions become purified. But to see oneself in others is not an easy thing to do.

How can I see myself in others? How can I discriminate as to how much I can do to make the other person happy? This is the role of viveka, which comes when the truth, satya, is experienced with the channeling of emotions. In Rikhia we have seen the way Swami Satyananda is teaching us to live. It is a learning process. It is excellence in the expression of personality, excellence in the expression of attitudes, excellence in performance, excellence in thought, excellence in knowing what is needed. It is that excellence which one has to imbibe and that can only come with atma bhava, when you are able to see yourself in others.

Seeing oneself in others is not easy because we are so caught up in our own desires and what we wish to achieve. Therefore, to develop atma bhava is not something that you can decide to start doing today. To perfect meditation is easier than perfecting atma bhava. To manage the mind is easier than managing one’s emotions.

Just as there is pratyahara, dharana and dhyana for the mind, there is pratyahara, dharana and dhyana for the emotions as well. To stop the chatter of the mind you have to practise antar mouna. To stop the dissipated emotions you have to practise antar darshan. To be able to witness the mind you need to practise chidakasha dharana. To be able to witness the emotions you need to practise hridayakasha dharana. Yoga has stated very clearly that these are the techniques by which you can manage your mind and purify your emotions. If we maintain our effort in sadhana, then we will come to a point where we will be able to see ourselves as part of other people and that is the fulfillment of yoga.

It’s Never too Early to DetoxifySwami,Satyasangananda Saraswati

Are you a person who works late into the night, occasionally waking up feeling groggy and tired, wishing you could sleep some more? Or a person who has no set time or habits for eating, performing little or no exercise and simply having no outlet for relaxation either at work or at home? If you are, then read on because chances are that this lifestyle is soon going to lead you to a doctor (if it hasn’t already) with a condition that may alarm and jolt you out of your senses. For the stress and strain of this sort of living ultimately leads you to experience anyone of a whole gamut of degenerative diseases such as chronic fatigue, hypertension, arthritis, diabetes, defects in the immune system, allergy, stroke, paralysis, arteriosclerosis, along with a range of heart ailments that perhaps you never even knew existed.

You do not have to be very astute or aware to realise where you are heading, because although problems may only show up later in life, the signs and signals of their onset begin in

the early years. This happens due to several factors some of which could be physical as well as dietary, others mental and emotional as well as hereditary or genetic. These causes contribute to the secretion of hormones that are sometimes detrimental to the body on account of their tendency to leave behind toxins that accumulate and gradually being to form layers or coats around the lysosomes within the cells which constitute your flesh, blood, bone and marrow.

Lysosomes are small structures inside cells that help to flush out its waste products, similar to the action of a toilet in you home. When traces of toxic substances block the lysosomal membrane, the function of the lysosome will be blocked too, as a result of which toxins remain in the body and begin to coat the cells layer after layer. This contributes to the development of many chronic degenerative diseases, as in the course of time the cell functions are severely impaired. If left unattended later this situation is aggravated, with disease setting in when it gets out of hand. Unfortunately this is the case with most of us who live in urban areas on account of the fast developing pace of life which leaves us with little stimulus or opportunity, if any, to correct the accumulation of toxins which develop over the years.

Free radicals Accumulation of toxins in turn activates the formation of free radicals, which are now considered to be the main cause of decay, degeneration and premature ageing. The free radical theory that has overtaken the germ theory of the last century attributes the decay and destruction of vital cells to the formation of free radicals. A free radical is a molecule that has gone berserk or haywire because it has an unpaired electron or an electron with no partner. Normally, negative electrons within a molecule pair off with positive electrons, forming a ring or circuit. But sometimes a molecule falls out of balance by acquiring an unpaired electron. It is this unbalanced molecule that turns into a free radical. In order to complete itself, it then begins to attack other molecules which hold all the electrons it needs, causing severe damage to the tissues and inner lining of cells and arteries. .

In short, a free radical is like a rogue or rascal that has entered your house either forcefully or through your negligence, and begins to devour everything in it. Once this process starts it causes havoc if it is not checked quickly as free

radicals act rapidly, wasting little or no time in satisfying their needs. What is more alarming is that once a free radical enters your system it sets off a chain reaction, giving birth to more of its kind.

In fact we will have to accept that accumulation of toxins within the body is something that we cannot escape from given the type of food we eat, the kind of life we live, the quality of air we breathe and the contaminated water that is available for us to drink, in addition to the complex emotions which we face day in and day out. Therefore, instead of focusing on how to reduce the toxins we should draw our attention on how to develop the art of eliminating these toxins as and when they accumulate within us, so that they do not become a permanent part of our constitution. In other words our emphasis should be on how to detoxify.

Detoxification is in fact the answer to all our problems, whether physical, mental or emotional. We will have to accept that thoughts and feelings also contribute to the accumulation of toxins within us. It is not food alone that does this. Therefore, whichever method we decide on to detoxify, we should first of all examine whether it has the capacity to reach the toxins created by all areas of our existence. Moreover, it should be a method that will eliminate and not suppress the toxins from showing up. In addition, it should be a process where detoxification takes place in a natural and balanced manner without causing further disturbance to the different systems of the physical body, and thereby creating a situation where other diseases may set in. And last but not least, the method chosen should be able to reach the cause of the problem and root it out so that the accumulation of excessive toxins does not get out of hand. No doubt diet and lifestyle contribute enormously towards achieving this, and there are ample instructions on these topics in all the glossies available at the news-stand, but in order to gain total control over the process of detoxification one will have to turn to the therapies which can rapidly get to the core of the problem.

Chelation therapy In this connection I recall a recent discussion I had about the different processes of detoxification with the reputed Dr. S.S. Sibia, MD (Ludhiana, Punjab), who is presently treating degenerative diseases such as those mentioned above through a therapy known as chelation. Dr. Sibia, who is a pioneer in the field of chelation in India, explains that this system involves intravenous infusion of a chelating substance known as ethylenediaminetetraacetate. This system is fast gaining popularity in other parts of the world where the clinical data available reports several astounding recoveries of patients that had been written off and left to wait for the final farewell.

Suppose it was pouring rain and you had to go outside, what would you do to protect yourself? Stop the rain? That would be impossible. So, in order to shield yourself you would either use an umbrella or simply defer your trip outside. Dr. Sibia, while comparing chelation therapy to this example, explained that chelation was a similar shield of protection against the effects of stresses and strains which one cannot and should not stop or avoid. Stress, he said, was necessary for growth and evolution and one should not avoid it or else we would become vegetables. But while undergoing stress we can shield ourselves from its ill effects on our bodies, through chelation.

The word chelation (pronounced kay-lay-shun) is derived from a Greek word chele, which means ‘claw’, and is used for a process whereby the toxins or free radicals in the system are hunted out and enclosed or grasped within a molecular structure so they are deprived of contact with other molecules. This not only prevents them from attacking other cells, but also in the course of their isolation the free radicals are corrected, and the cells damaged by their invasion repaired by the liquid which is infused into the vein. The chelated toxins, which sometimes could be composed of useful enzymes and minerals that were not assimilated, are reabsorbed through the chelating agent by those parts of the body that may require those enzymes, and elimination of waste toxins, if any, is carried out through the urinary system.

Chelation is a process of nature. If you understand it correctly you will begin to see that all of nature is chelating, and in fact this process is happening within us naturally when our bodies function normally. Tears, sneezing, mucus, sweat, menstrual blood, urine and faeces are all nature’s ways of detoxification. But sometimes this process is overwhelmed by the sheer enormity of the impurities that enter the body either through the food we eat, the thoughts we think or the environment we choose to live in and the lifestyle we subject ourselves to. Then nature’s way of detoxification fails and deterioration and degeneration take over. It is when this balance is disturbed and the accumulation of toxins is more rapid and intense than their elimination that we have to interfere

Page 25: ARADHANA Yoga of the heart - Rikhiapeeth · ARADHANA Yoga of the heart 3 Sep/Oct 2013 Pathway to Purity Swami Sivananda Saraswati Purification is the first part of yoga. The means

ARADHANA Yoga of the heart 23 Sep/Oct2013

through artificial means. It is important to understand that the very basic actions

of your body such as breathing, digesting, circulation and excretion are all forms of chelation. In fact the lymphatic system or recycle bin which nature has endowed you with is the most efficient chelating system one can ever conceive. It is when these systems fail due to negligence and improper care that we have to look outside for therapies that can rectify our condition.

Hatha yoga and detoxificationThis is the role that hatha yoga fulfils through the practices of asana, pranayama, mudra and bandha. On discussing chelation therapy with Dr. Sibia, I realised that certain kriyas such as tadan kriya, pranayamas such as bhramari, kapalbhati and ujjayi, mudras such as ashwini, shambhavi and nasikagra, and the three bandhas, jalandhara, uddiyana and moola, create conditions in the body for chelation or detoxification to be enhanced in a soothing and measured way.

Let us examine the practice of tadan kriya. In this practice you are asked to sit cross-legged and, after raising your body a few inches off the grounds on both hands, to strike your buttocks on the ground forcefully. This action is repeated several times. Of course if the ground is too hard you may keep a soft cushion or rug so as to avoid injury. Try to imagine what happens in this act. First of all, through the jolt they receive, the muscles release lactic acid, which is a chelating agent. Second, this rapid movement stimulates the lymphatic system. Thirdly, there is an optimal oxygenation for the entire network of blood vessels and muscle fibres. There is a clearing up, a rearrangement, and subsequently, through continued practice, renovation takes place inside. This is why you will find that in the course of time through the practice of tadan kriya your body becomes lighter and lighter till such a time that it defies the laws of gravity and begins to levitate. In fact tadan kriya is practised just for this purpose, to assist in meditation. Detoxification is only a side effect, albeit a very valuable one!

Bhramari pranayama, when practised in slow resonance, creates a vibration in the heart, which you can feel if you hold your hand close to the chest. This vibration mobilises the movement of cells and creates the momentum to rejuvenate a sluggish metabolism. Kapalbhati pranayama forces oxygenated blood into the brain thus clearing out impurities in the nerves and arteries, and recharging the cerebral system with new life. It occurred to both of us that if yoga and chelation therapy were combined they would prove to be an extremely effective and potent method for eradicating degenerative processes that develop in man and severely afflict him, affecting his entire life. Chelation therapy cleans from the cells an accumulation of unwanted waste, which may be impairing the lysosome function. Because the liquid which is infused into the system is an amino acid, it does not just float in the bloodstream but it also profuses through the tissues, the capillary bed and in the tissue fluids, pulling out toxic metals from the trillions of cells in the body. As it is introduced directly into the bloodstream, it acts quickly and is therefore extremely useful in advanced conditions, which can then be maintained, improved, stabilised and rejuvenated through the practices of yoga. -

Increasing blood flow to the heartTo my utter surprise, another important therapy that Dr. Sibia introduced me to specifically for heart ailments, known as the external counter pulsation, also achieved through a state of the art machine exactly the same effect as padmasana, supta vajrasana and siddhasana. External counter pulsation is the new non-surgical therapy for angina patients that increases blood flow to the heart by dilating coronary blood vessels, opening dormant collaterals and creating new blood vessels. It is performed lying on a bed wearing a series of pressure cuffs around the legs which inflate and deflate electronically synchronising with the heart beat, thus moving the blood upwards from the legs to the heart at the precise moment when the heart is resting. This causes an increase in the diastolic pressure and coronary perfusion pressure as well as an increase in coronary flow, venous return and cardiac output. When he invited me to try the machine on myself I felt as if several expert masseurs were massaging my legs, and this was so relaxing that I even drifted off to sleep in fifteen minutes. It was the very same pressure that built up in the thighs during padmasana when the heels press on them and push the blood upwards to the heart.

Purifying the nadis Pushing fresh oxygenated blood up to the heart or removing accumulated toxins from the body are mechanical processes that are indeed very vital for proper functioning, but beyond that there is an electrical process which also needs to be detoxified side by side. The human body is in fact generating electricity all the time just as it is done in the power station. This electricity

Page 28: ARADHANA Yoga of the heart - Rikhiapeeth · ARADHANA Yoga of the heart 3 Sep/Oct 2013 Pathway to Purity Swami Sivananda Saraswati Purification is the first part of yoga. The means

ARADHANA Yoga of the heart 26 Sep/Oct2013

then flows to all parts of the body through nadis. Nadi means flow and in this case refers to a flow of energy or electrical impulse. There are 72,000 nadis in the body, some of which are adrishya or unseen. If these nadis become toxic, the electrical impulses will cease to reach their destination and the various physical activities will be affected as the commands from the brain will not reach the organ.

Therefore, apart from physical detoxification of cells, nerves, tissues, arteries and veins, the nadis too have to be

purified. This is where yoga can greatly help chelation therapy, as it is the only natural science known to man which can detoxify impurities on all levels, including the physical and pranic or electrical dimension. Our bodies have an amazing inbuilt backup system, which has the capacity to restore and rejuvenate health within the body whenever it is disturbed. If left to itself, this system can

easily repair any damage that is done. But sometimes when the damage is too extensive, this system needs a bit of help from outside through natural therapies such as walking, diet, yoga, chelation or external counter pulsation to enhance and accentuate the detoxification process.

In this the twenty-first century, the age of information technology, as man becomes more aware, it is important that he should use all the knowledge available to play a greater role in deciding what sort of therapy he would like to adopt. This decision should not be arbitrary. This is only possible if he is well informed and has a certain trust and confidence in the natural processes of the body, which respond better to the natural therapies.

Aradhana during Ashwin – October

Ashwin Navaratri5th–13th October 2013

‘During Navaratri or the nine nights the whole of India adores the Mother and worships Her with great devotion. On the first three nights, Kali or the destructive aspect of the Mother is worshipped. On the succeeding three nights, it is the creative aspect or Lakshmi that is adored. And on the last three nights, the knowledge aspect or Saraswati is invoked. The tenth day is the day of victory, when she is worshipped as Durga.

There is special significance in this arrangement. When the Devi is worshipped by a devotee in this order, as Kali she first destroys the tamasic propensities that lurk in the mind. Then, as Lakshmi, she overcomes rajas and implants therein the divine qualities conducive to spiritual unfoldment. Then as Saraswati she bestows true knowledge. The tenth day, as Durga, commemorates the victory of knowledge over nescience, goodness over evil. Worship of the Universal Mother gives not only prosperity, but liberation from all bondages.’

—Swami Sivananda Saraswati

Ashwin Navaratri Aradhana

A nine-day worship of Devi will be conducted at Rikhiapeeth from 5th to 13th October 2013.

An Invitation

SAT CHANDI MAHAYAJNA AND YOGA PURNIMA

Swami Satyasangananda Saraswati

In 2013 the 18th annual Sat Chandi Mahayajna and Yoga Purnima celebrations will be conducted for the second year at Patanjali Yoga Ashram. Hosting these grand scale events at this new venue next to the Annapurna Kshetram Kanya Kitchen is the fulfillment of Swami Satyananda’s vision and sankalpa. Paramahansa Satyananda, the great spiritual visionary, recognised the need of mankind and in 1995, after six years of long and arduous anusthans in total isolation at Rikhia, he commenced the Sat Chandi Mahayajna dedicated to the Cosmic Mother. For the first time, instead of completing his sadhana in seclusion, Swami Satyananda welcomed one and all to attend this powerful ritual to invoke the Cosmic Shakti.

For 16 years the Sat Chandi Mahayajna was conducted at Paramahansa Alakh Bara Tapowan Vedi as an invocation of the Divine Mother. The Cosmic Shakti is the evolutionary force in the universe and each year not only the people present but also the yajna itself has evolved. Year after year this invocation gained strength and momentum and the connection to the Divine Mother became more attuned and clear. As a result of these intense aradhanas Devi Ma decided to come to Rikhiapeeth not as a visitor but to stay. Her presence at Rikhiapeeth is always tangible and during the yajna becomes magnified as she showers her grace and blessings on all. During Sat Chandi we will worship our Divine Mother for with her blessings we can achieve all that we desire and more. We can transform our minds, our hearts and our lives.

Existence is taking place on many different planes and in many different forms in the universal and individual self from the gross physical to the subtle, divine, pure, unlimited and infinite. In the dimension in which we exist energy takes the form of physical

matter and is often accompanied by ignorance. In the higher realms existence takes the form of light, sound, vibration, illumination and love. Here the limitations that bind one on the physical plane have been removed and there is the freedom of pure consciousness and pure energy.

Since his Mahasamadhi on 5th December 2009 Paramahansa Satyananda has left the physical plane and is now dwelling at Rikhiapeeth in the subtle and divine realms. Sat Chandi Mahayajna and Yoga Purnima are his sadhanas he continues to perform in these higher realms with more intensity than ever before. Swami Satyananda is a spiritual genius who is always moving forward and constantly evolving. He is reaching unfathomable heights and just by being in his divine presence we too can evolve and transform. His presence at the yajnas has grown stronger and more defined with each passing year.

Paramahansa Satyananda knew how Sat Chandi Mahayajna and Yoga Purnima would evolve and gave clear instructions how to perform them in the years to come. We all know that anything Sri Swamiji is guiding will be full of brilliance, luminosity and inspiration and these two yajnas are no exception. The vedi that has been built at Patanjali Ashram to Sri Swamiji’s specifications is a Chaya Vedi and the sacred yajnas that we are conducting there have now become Chaya Yajnas. Performed according to the ancient tantric rites, Chaya Yajna is a sadhana rather than an invocation.

Chaya means shadow or reflection. Just as all of the beauty and joy that we see in the world is only a reflection of the unlimited beauty of the divine, so these yajnas are now the earthly reflection on the physical plane of the divine yajna that Sri Swamiji is performing in the higher dimensions. For this reason these yajnas have grown more profound and more powerful than ever before. The accumulation of this spiritual energy has created a magnetic aura of such attraction and beauty that greater and greater numbers of people flock to Rikhiapeeth each year to bask in the divine vibrations. Anyone who comes within the vicinity of these divine events will be blessed.

Five days after Sat Chandi Mahayajna devoted to the cosmic

Shakti, Yoga Purnima which is the adoration of her cosmic consort Shiva will begin. Shiva will never turn you away or close the door to you. He will never judge you and find you to be undeserving of his grace and compassion. He does not see your virtues nor does he see your faults. He does not see your strengths nor does he see your weaknesses. In each one of us he is able to see through these veils to the truth that lies within, the truth that we are all part of the one supreme reality.

In his lifetime Swami Satyananda became the embodiment of Shiva. He accepts each one of us with an open heart - no matter what creed or caste, age or race we are. For each one of us he prays for freedom from suffering and liberation from bondage. To each one of us he gives his love and his grace and asks for nothing in return. Swami Satyananda is the ideal sannyasin and the perfect Guru.

Swami Satyananda was born in Almora on the auspicious occasion of Marga Shirsha Purnima at midnight. Following the mandate of his Guru Swami Sivananda he heralded the yoga movement in the modern world. Just as the sun radiates warmth and life Swami Satyananda radiated yoga to every corner of the earth. In remembrance of this great gift of yoga that he has given to mankind the event is named Yoga Purnima.

Kriya Yoga is Paramahansa Satyananda’s gift to mankind. It has proved a boon for the modern man who is unable to relax and concentrate. It is Swami Satyananda’s vision that in the years to come yoga and yajna will together emerge as the tools for the evolution of man. So in 2009 before he took Mahasamadhi he said Kriya Yoga should be integrated with Mahamrityunjaya Yajna. Now in 2013 for the first time this dream will be fulfilled. This year the Kriya Yoga course will be conducted side by side with Yoga Purnima and participants will have the opportunity to derive maximum benefit of both yajna and yoga.

So, come one and all, to receive the divine grace that these unique events have to offer.

Certificate Course in Yogic Studies (Hindi)1st February–31st May 2013

The Patanjali World Yoga University at Rikhiapeeth is Swami Satyananda’s Sankalpa and this year his vision was fulfilled as the Hindi Certificate Course in Yogic Studies was conducted here for the first time. From 1st February to 31st May 2013 Patanjali Ashram became even more vibrant as the 37 participants focussed on the study of yoga. The daily classes by Swami Tyagraj and Swami Harigyanam and guided by Swami Taponidhi gave all a comprehensive understanding and experience of asana, pranayama, meditation, yoga nidra, shatkarmas and yoga philosophy. Practised in the tapobhumi of Swami Satyananda, a place abounding in divine blessings and spiritual vibrations, gave the teachings more depth, strength and potency.

Along with the classes participants also had the opportunity to expand their awareness and open their hearts by becoming fully involved in ashram life, bhakti and seva. The daily evening satsangs were a time of enjoyment for all with spirited kirtan and dancing. The Yogic Studies students were fortunate to participate in the following aradhanas: Sivaratri, Holi, Chaitra Navaratri, Akshay Tritiya, Buddha Purnima and the monthly Guru Bhakti Yoga. In the presence of Swami Satyasangananda, Peethadishwari of Rikhiapeeth, the students reaped untold benefits from her clear insight and deep understanding into spiritual as well as daily life.

Sivananda Janmotsav8th September 2013

“I think I should let you know who Swami Sivananda was. Swami Sivananda was born in India in 1887. After graduating as a medical doctor he became a swami. He did great sadhana. He attained high illumination. He had no attachments yet he loved everybody. He was large hearted yet he was disciplined and his life was a constant sacrifice. Anyone who came to him for anything, he gave it. He was very powerful. He healed millions but he never claimed it.”

–Swami Satyananda Saraswati

At RikhiapeethEvery year 1st to 8th September is celebrated as the Janmotsav week of our Param Guru Swami Sivananda. To mark this occasion Srimad Bhagwad Mool Path and Katha will be held at Rikhiapeeth. To exemplify the teachings of Serve, Love and Give, an eye camp for Rikhia and the surrounding villages will be held during this period. To mark the birth of a great yogi, Kriya Yoga satra will be conducted at Rikhia from 1st to 8th September. All are welcome.

Yoga Teacher Training Course (Hindi)20th June–10th July 2013

Yoga Teacher Training is always a popular course at Rikhiapeeth, and this was no exception, as 90 participants came from 14 states of India, and as far as Nepal and Singapore, to become immersed in the fundamental practices of Satyananda Yoga. Swami Goraknath and Swami Tyagraj exposed the participants to a range of asana, pranayama, meditation, yoga nidra and shatkarmas, and elucidated the principles involved in the transition from yoga practitioner to yoga teacher. They were ably assisted by the batuks of Rikhiapeeth as demonstrators in the early morning classes, and the kanyas who confidently led the early morning chanting and evening programs.

Bhoj was held for kanyas and batuks on 28th June, and the group contributed wholeheartedly in the preparations and serving, many of them having a glimpse for the first time of Sri Swamiji’s mandate to serve a wholesome meal daily to the 2000 children of Rikhia panchayat. The group was fortunate to participate in the Guru Bhakti Yoga aradhana, in remembrance of Sri Swamiji, on the 5th and 6th of July. Many participants also took the opportunity to receive diksha during their stay.

The Yoga Teacher Training Course was conducted under the guidance of Swami Satyasangananda, whose illuminating satsangs inspired one and all.
