Bridging with Mother
Global Transitions and Ancient Traditions
Through ardent Saadhana (daily engrossment in spiritual practices) of an initiated Mantra Kriya Yoga practice, I came realize how the practice actually works. It is all based in Tantra. Not the Tantra that has been stereotyped and degraded in movies and by the colonized mindset. Tantra is actually magnetism. The human body is more like a tree than a planet. The spine is akin to the the trunk of the tree, distributing the prana from the roots to the tip of the tree’s expression, the flower… all of which, vibrate with and are receptive to electromagnetic energy, or prana. The planets are a magnet, the sun is a magnet. During these times of massive global and interstellar transitions and transformations, if we tune into and harness our electromagnetic energy we absorb and retain the new energy present in that change, due to the awareness of our own energy. How does one do this? The most simple method is Ujjayi Pranayama, the foundational breathing and life force energy technique of the masterful Kriya Yoga, as mentioned in Patanjali Yoga Sutra and other ancient Sanskrit based references. Is an ancient tradition relevant to a modern Global Transition? If one truly comprehends Patanjali Yoga Sutra, it becomes clear.
The Yoga of Pantanjali Yoga Sutra - Kriya Yoga - and other systems mentioned in Yoga Sutra is a non-religious Spiritual Way of Life. Given the corollary that if practice with earnest faith and reverential devotion the path to the end goal of Yoga - Samadhi (breathless liberated awareness) is quickened. Those persons let down or turned away from indoctrinated religiosity, yet still deeply connect with their soul in relation to the creative energy of the universe may still find refuge and sanctity in Its mechanism of daily practice or Saadhana. Those persons consumed in the mentality of the information and data controlled age, can still relate to the practicality and righteous living applied through practice of the Yoga of Patanjali. Who are the safeguards of Its Legacy? Which determine souls will dedicate themselves to the tradition of Shruti and Smruti that is required to pass on this ancient curriculum that is and can be the Modern Human’s Salvation? Who among us has the loving and devotional discipline to control and silence themselves long enough to implement, practice and reap the results of these modalities they have studied within Yoga Sutra? In a heavily visual - screen oriented - social media phone culturally driven society of the data controlled information age - where is it that profound wisdom teachings will be found? Will It retreat... has It withdrawn already… did it ever truly fully disappear? These are Living Teachings of High Vibration. If they live on in the hearts of those cultivating Its practices the life blood and prana shakti of this living - magnetizing - and liberating knowledge base will carry on. Like a plant that produces a desire to be cultivated and shows its loving flower to the farmer, and the farmer cannot resists the plant’s gaze and makes an inner vow to be a safeguard of the plant’s legacy, those devoted to Ancient Traditions know the value of them in the modern world… Their hearts are caves of wisdom glowing with pranic light and love. The shining wisdom and spiritual way of life will be the resonant energy guiding Its continuation through this unique Global Transition.
