1. At the outset I offer my salutations to all the members of the fraternity. Our Master has stated that he enjoys the company of abhyasis and wanted to impress that He is everywhere. He exhorted that the congregation of abhyasis is his temple and we have to make our hearts his temple. Dedication to the cause of the Master and an iron will and determination to live in Him is his call. Naturally this means that we do not live for ourselves and the value we grant to our life lies in such a dedication. Our Master, the supreme personality is guiding us whenever we find ourselves in cross roads. He has asserted that spirituality is unaffected by the problems of the body or mind. His work is becoming more and more perceptible and we clearly understand the goal towards which we are inching forward. Those who are introduced into the system properly and practice regularly do feel Pranahuti or the divine impulse. We are struggling to make the few minutes of ecstasy during sessions of Pranahuti percolate in all phases and aspects of life. We seek to make it an integral part of our living. There is no art or science of living; life is a gift of the divine and by dedicating it totally to the divine cause demands many changes to be made in several aspects of living.
2. We are going through many adjustments and reconfigurations at this time, as we assimilate the energy of Pranahuti. The highly sensitive ones are feeling this in a very intense way. We have been residing in the void for quite some time now. How do you know if you are currently in the void and what are its attributes? It is an in between place that we maintain, as we are finishing up a lot of the emotional, mental, spiritual and physical work we perform. Void has positive and negative aspects. Void positively is what we imperience. Negatively we know we are in the void if we are unable to start many new projects or even finish up some of the things we have on hand. There are many delays and hold ups. It reminds me of a dream that I used to have and also many aspirants shared similar dreams with me, where we are running in place but cannot seem to get to our destination.
3. My personal experience makes me assert that void is not a negative space. It is neutral energy, unless we place a lot of expectations and demands on ourself and life. It can be very frustrating and anxiety producing. There seems to be a lot of limitation and emptiness. If we can kind of let go, go with the flow and let things unfurl in its own time and way, it would be really beneficial for our peace of mind and wellbeing. When we do get stressed, it is better to forgive ourself and know we are doing the best we can.
4. While passing through the stage of Vairagya we find that in many of our relationships we feel a disconnect with others. Some connections, where we previously might have had a close bond at one time or another, feel really distant and remote. It does not necessarily mean that the relationship is over for good, however, it seems that it is really difficult to connect with people. I have found it is hard to make plans that do not get canceled, postponed or delayed. Misunderstandings’, not "getting” each other and just a plain desire not to be around other people for long periods of time has abounded. One of the many reasons it is hard to be around other people right now is because the veil is so thin, and as we are so empathic, we pick up and absorb the energy of others to the point that it feels downright draining to be in public or around others for long periods of time. It has been so intense that trips to the shopping malls, store or any public place causes me to feel really anxious that I rush through my shopping or really plan out what I need to get so I can get in and out quickly. It is over a decade now that I have been to a shop and manage to get my requirements through other members in the family. There is a major incongruence between the vibrational level of many foods and products being sold at the store. We organically know what is of value to our body and soul. For the highly sensitive person, buying, using or even being around things that are not purposeful or useful causes feelings of unease.
5. Many sensitive persons are experiencing severe allergic reactions. Let me preface that by saying most of us are becoming or already are highly sensitive. We are chiseling through our armor and coming face to face with our most vulnerable, delicate selves. As we release the density of our unconscious ways, gain inner awareness, forgive, love, let go, make healthier choices, etc. we are becoming lighter. Most of the new children are born without these barriers of limitation. They cannot even conceive of the way we previously lived our lives. I understand from my doctors that the H1N1 virus is an example of the sensitivities we are now facing. Skin rashes, breakouts, asthma, colds, food and environmental allergies are at an all time high. We cannot ignore the need for good care and the use of quality products. We are being guided to be gentle with ourselves.
6. Being in this void can feel lonely at times. It can invoke feelings of frustration, dissatisfaction, impatience and just plain pure boredom, sometimes, with spurts of upheaval. We can utilize this period by trusting that this will not last forever. We should just be at peace with where we are at, remain present in the moment. Appreciate and enjoy the quiet and slower pace. We are being rewired and realigned to adapt with ease into this new energy. Many opportunities are being aligned behind the scene. If we try to push it quicker than it is meant to be its like showing up a day too early for a party. We are all dressed up; all ready for a good time, knock on the door and become disappointed when no one is home to answer the door. The host is out buying the finishing touches for the party. They are still in preparation mode while we think we missed the entire party, when in fact, we just happened to show up too soon! People, places, and things that are meant for us, will be coming into our lives shortly. We have seen and felt glimpses and glimmers of what is to come. The most crucial thing is to stay positive and not let the frustration get us down. We need to remind ourself of what we are grateful and appreciative for. Take this time to catch up and focus on doing what we can accomplish. Practice the system of the Master and enjoy the peace and quiet while it lasts. We need not be hard on ourselves for not accomplishing all the things we set out to do. With the support of the Master behind us we will surely move on albeit slowly. Moving in nothingness is like moving in space that has no friction. Nothingness is what it is and we can mould ourselves but not change IT.
7. When in Nothingness we may be spending a lot of time alone. We may crave time to ourselves or circumstances are propelling us to be alone. It is not necessarily a reflection on our relationship with others. We need to learn to be in our own energies. We need to attune to our own vibration and know our own thoughts and feelings. It is not just about staying away from negative people or who is of lower vibration. It is simply about being comfortable in our own skin and appreciating our own company! It’s about allowing ourselves to be still and monitoring the amount of external stimulation we receive. It is also about avoiding enmeshed relationships and co-dependent behaviors that cause us to lose ourselves in another (our children, parents, spouse, friends, etc. included) In order to follow our intuition and guidance we need to be tuned in. We cannot be tuned in if we are always on the go and busy.
8. Pranahuti the reinvented energy is here and it feels different. We cannot do things the way we did in the past because things do not work that way any longer. We are in a profound time of integration. We may wish for things to speed up (and slow down at the same time) but we cannot rush the process. It is what it is! Give yourself a big pat on the back for rolling with the changes that have occurred all year long. The new energies are about being sovereign within ourself. "To thy own self be true". We should stay true to our path opening ourself to a higher level of authenticity in our life and in how our world functions. We have to expose, and heal those areas that have been out of alignment. As we complete doing this we can put into action the creations that will benefit us.
We are blessed to have a Master who is guiding us in all aspects of life and all that is required of us is to love Him and His cause.
