Symbols can make your desires come true!

Four clover leaf symbol of luck
Symbology or Prateek Vigyan is the science that is beyond the understanding of an uninitiated. The word science has been used as symbology has its logics and explanations for all the rational minds looking into it. For a layman to understand the logics is difficult as he may confront many unknown terms. A basic initiation leads to clear comprehension and realization of not only the self but also the ingredients of universe. Although it is less known about but not less worked or less experiences about. We all come across symbols and signs that trigger various emotions within us.  The whole universe can be depicted entirely on symbols. The mysteriously language of symbols rules the world.
Signs and symbols rule the world not rules and laws- Confucius
It may sound secretive but at the same it is simple and penetrates life of every human. No human can live without the presence of symbols around. They are personal to you, pulling you towards unknown darkness or pushing you towards light of success. Every being has their own set of personal symbols. The symbols make their life what it is. Some are lineage symbols that you get from your ancestors, on which lies your beliefs, principles and faith and some you acquire in the process of understanding the self. An unheard conversation takes place between the chosen, unchosen symbols and you. The conversation goes unheard due to the prevailing unawareness.  Sometimes when heard, it may seem to be scary if it conveys something that you don’t wish for. The unwanted conversation is just because of erroneous symbols you have picked along the journey. Comes in here a call for obvious necessity to pick the right ones.
Square symbol of
stability
Symbols forms a bridge from known to the unknown raising consciousness as they convey something more than the apparent meaning. The Master says “You are what your thoughts have made you; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far. And thoughts are interplay of symbols.. images and imageries . So better you have control on the inherent design of array of symbols the more more aligned you get towards the thought over goal of your energies”
Carl Jung uses the word “ archetype” for the universal symbols that possess greater constancy and potentiality for psychic evolution. The symbol point towards the superior and higher from the inferior and lower. He states  “The psychological mechanism that transforms energy is the symbol.” (Symbols of Transformation, 1956)
Raining money symbol
of wealth
Consciously we are attached to only this birth and understand and apprehend only through the limited knowledge we have gained in the limited remembered years on earth. Our subconscious mind, knows much more, recognizes much more and understands much more. It can easily relate to the symbols that are ancient and unrecognizable by our cognizant self. So the ancient symbols have their own importance in the studies of symbols. An unintentional relation formed between us and symbols have an ancient trail of happenings.
A smiling face is a symbol of positivity, happiness and joy, so when you see someone around you smiling you feel good. This is a simple example where a symbol consciously relates to you. can you carry your positivity if you see depressed and distressed people around? It is difficult. Symbology facilitates the positive thought process by directly linking to your subconscious side. It can be done by using positive energy emanating symbols. you can change your unknown conversation into a needed and identified one by connecting to a symbol representing your dreams and goals. When an accurate symbol is chosen by the master it has the ability to penetrate the deep layers of your psyche, washing away the negativity and raising positivity from within. Symbols when connects
Sri Yantra symbol
of spiritual ascension
with your inner self opens the dead locks and introduces to various avenues in your life. Symbology is an ancient science having the ability to convert all your desires into reality. You directly converse with your inner self through pictures, signs and symbols and that is the language that it understands. Symbols tap within you a vast, boundless sea of knowledge, potential and wisdom.
I welcome you all to this mystical world of symbols. Enjoy understanding and knowing the symbols. Some may entice you enough to enter into your lives.Let me know if they do. You can write to me at divine.devpriya at sacredassociation dot org, about your desires and wishes and consult about which symbol and related practices for their manifestation. You will be  a witness to how miraculously a symbol can change your life. There are thousands of symbols ancient, new age, religious symbols, planetory symbols, occult symbols, celtic symbols and many more but which one is for you?

Experience Shakti in you!

Every women is an embodiment of divine Shakti.
We may not realize the immense potential we carry within us. The Divine Mother in all her sacred forms and insights is guiding us continuously. But still we feel the disconnect so many times in our life. Many times we feel that there is a miss of divine flow and expression in our life. It is the time, when we start thinking of our self as very normal and not an embodiment of the divine energy. I have met many women who tell me "I don't believe I have any connection with divine" which clearly means they are not AWARE of the divine sacred energies flowing through them.

Many women also come to me and ask "How can I experience the presence of Divine Sacred energy flowing in my life." The only reason that you are not experiencing love, peace, divinity and sacredness in our life is that we are allowing it. You are not feeling the connection because you are not trying to make the connection. You are holding yourself back.

The first step is to "Let go"
                                      To break the barriers, the mental barriers that hold you and cage you in your own mental image. Mind is very busy all the time 24x7 it is busy, chattering and chattering. It  is not having time to think about anything else but just Worry about petty issues. "Let go" your worries, disappointments and negative thinking for once and let the divine energy flow within you. Let go everything that holds you back, the more you cling to it, the more stronger and influential it will become. Why not let the divine influence our life? Let go your need to be busy always. It is always good to make priorities in your life and work according to them. This will save you from spending energy unnecessarily on various not so important things. "I am busy taking my nap or sleeping" also comes here. This "Let go" exercise is to relax you and your continuously working  nerves. Say often to yourself "Relax" and "Let go"


"Getting Aware"
                             As you start to let go, you will find yourself free from many disturbances and influences. Your mind is now ready to accept divine intervention and plan in your life. You have found a better and calm state of mind. You are able to now focus on connecting. You mind has learned to let go and accept. Now is the time to get aware, of the divine play in your life.

The feminine energy within you is a continuous reminder of presence of Divine Mother. The women is a dynamic form of energy, as Shakti that is the primordial cosmic energy and represents the dynamic forces that move through the entire universe. Shakti is present in both male and females, but here I am talking to females, letting them experience the Power of Shakti within them.

Sit in a comfortable position. Place your palms in front of each other at the level of your heart. Move them clockwise for few seconds and now start moving them anticlockwise for other few seconds. You will feel a formation of an energy ball between your palms. Mentally pray to this energy to move into your heart,  filling your heart with loving and compassionate energies. Feel the energy ball moving behind your heart. Now as you exhale and inhale, feel as you are breathing from your heart. Inhale the energy from the energy ball and exhale from the front of your heart. Recognize that your are inhaling and exhaling Shakti. 
Become Aware of the your root chakra. The energy from the heart is now moving from your root chakra towards your heart, and reaching towards your crown chakra. The energy ball is like an backrest, supporting you and providing lots of energy to you. Let your attention flow from the root chakra to the heart and from the heart to the crown chakra and then back again. There is abundant energy now within you. You may have various experiences like tingling expansion or just a subtle feeling of electricity. This is the Shakti flowing within you. Be filled with gratitude and love towards this energy. Gently bring your attention to your breath and enjoy the subtle movement of Shakti within you. 
The Divine Shakti will cleanse you inside out and you will feel calm and energized both after this wonderful exercise. 

Become a witness of the process and you will discover various ways the Shakti will manifest. Listen to small gestures of Shakti, what it says about your body, heart and mind. You can learn incredible things about your essence and your own subtle energy. Start to release any discomfort, mental or physical to the Shakti. The deeper connections you make with Shakti, the more manifestations of Shakti you experience in your life.

Mythology

Das Mahavidhya is referred to as 10 Wisdom Goddesses. There are various stories about how 10 Maha Vidhyas came into existence. The Wisdom Goddesses give us insights, knowledge and teach us about the essential energies that guide us in our spiritual ascension.


The first love story of the existence was of Shiva and Shakti. The association is so beautiful and warming. Sati, consort of Shiva had married him against the wishes of her father, Daksha Prajapati. But love does not know boundaries and Sati a princess, left her palace to live with Shiva in jungles of Kailash. Daksha who was furious on this decision of Sati, decided to do something to insult Shiva. He performed a big magnificent Yagna, to which he invited all god and goddesses except his son in law Shiva.

But when Sati came to know about the Yagna from Narad Muni, she asked Shiva for permission to go to the Yagna. She wanted to go to get the benefits of the Yagna for her beloved husband. Shiva said that Daksha was trying to insult him, so even if Sati attends the Yagna, the fruit of Yagna will not be auspicious. He stopped Sati from going on which Sati go very furious. She thought that Shiva was treating her like a ignorant lady, but she was the mother of universe. She assumed her real form, the one of Divine Mother. There was a great agitation in the universe. The universe could not stand the wonder of Divine Mother, the mountains shook, oceans raged and earth moved.


Seeing the furious form of Sati, Shiva began to shake and tried to flee. But Ten Divine Forms stopped him from all the ten directions. She closed all the escape routes.

These are the 10 Mahavidhyas. Although the Divine mother decided to show her all ten forms here but every form is having a different story, form and mantra. Sacred Tantra teaches you about the insights, wisdom and meditation related to every Goddesses.

Shakti Tantra: Shakti Tantra

Shakti Tantra: Shakti Tantra

Shakti Tantra

“Thou art the prime and great Ṡakti (energy) and the very form of all energies. By the help of thy energy we engage in the works of creation, preservation and destruction. Endless are thy manifestations, forms and colour. Nirvana Tantra
The Sakti (energy) is taking new forms and shapes and every time it takes a new form, we give it a new name. Shakti is manifesting continuously with Shiva. Shiva is the pure consciousness (static energy) while shakti is the dynamic one. Shakti is flowing within as Prana and is also as Kundalini seated on the root chakra. Many of the spiritual practices are dedicated to awaken this energy, as here lays the secret of Self-enlightenment. This is how many people have been perceiving enlightenment, which causes them to search for practices to just awaken the Kundalini. Kundalini awakening without preparation is a dangerous affair. The energy in Kundalini is immense and Sadhak or Sadhika need to prepare their body for it.
The study of the tantra is mostly related to worship of the Feminine Energy, the Goddess. The Shakt branch sees everything as a manifestation of the female energy and believes that everything seen or unseen, real or unreal is an expression  of the Female aspect of the universe. There are other Tantras too which are associated with the worship of Shiva, Vishnu and Ganesh.
Here in “Shakti Tantra” we are essentially deliberating over the Wisdom of “Das Mahavidhyas” or “Ten Wisdom Goddesses”
Kali Tara Mahavidya Shodashi Bhuvaneshwari
Bhairavi Chinnamasta Cha Vidya Dhumavati Tattha
Matangi siddha Vidya Cha Kathita Baglamukhi
Eta Dasha Maha Vidya Sarva Tantreshu Gopitah
Kali, Tara, Shodashi, Bhuvaneshwari, Bhairavi, Chinnamasta, Dhumavati, Matangi, Kamala, And Bagla Mukhi are ten Mahavidyas which are secret of all Tantras.
As the energy changes its forms, various aspects of the goddess are revealed, which reveal the inherent quality of everything that exists. The mystery is veiled in such a subtle manner that every Sadhak or Sadhika bounds to see a totally different view with different tools. The tools like mantra and yantra help us to unveil the true nature of what is real, pure and divine within and outside.
A major part of Tantra is related to study of Ten Wisdom Goddesses. What is revealed during the study of each goddess separately is phenomenal. Every practitioner gets a different revelation completely based on his/her Psyche and most importantly “Need of inner being”
Shakti Tantra by Ma Shakti Devpriya is done exclusively for Females under IMSCON (International Mission for Shakti Consciousness.) It been understood that females are not able to even accept their feminity completely leave aside the divine aspect within them. It is the right time for them to learn about the divine aspect of feminity lying dormant in them. Just by knowing the wonderful mystery of Das Mahavidhya so many revelations start to happening within. Every Goddess has various aspect and characteristics which represent few inherent female qualities. The Goddess encourages us to tread the path further and realize the real mission of being on the Human Plane. They show us the path that gives fulfillment and completeness still being a part of the big worldly drama. The spiritual essence that is a part of every soul on the Earth, is not being revealed by many. Especially Females feel left out in this big spiritual transition that is taking place on the Earthy plane right now. Shakti Tantra gives this wonderful opportunity to every female to discover the “Divine Feminine Aspect” within. Every Goddess has a various theory and meditational practices that give an ‘never before’ experience.
The Ten Wisdom Goddesses reveal the knowledge that takes us towards the inner journey. Every layer of past experiences and emotions is peeled out and bondage's start to loosen up as the wisdom starts to waken within us.

Health of your Chakras- Forgiveness and Compassion

Let your chakras be healed!!
Let your chakras be healed!!
“How can my Chakras be healed?”
A question frequently asked by practitioners. So much has been written and known about the chakras that as soon as a person enters into Sadhana, thinks of healing, activating and cleansing of chakras. There are lot many practices surrounding the same, various meditations, various breathing techniques and various color therapies. I do not say  this all do not work, certainly they do. But I cannot help thinking did Gautam Buddha, Mahavira, Swami Rama, Ramana Maharishi and many more who had experienced enlightenment and Kundalini Jangran, had gone through these processes.
Well, even I am not sure of the reality. But there something very basic which we may be missing. And that is just so simple yet so tough that we tend to ignore the biggest facts of Chakra healing.
While looking at the teachings and life’s of all the Great Masters, I find my answer. The two attributes of which I am sure all the spiritual awakened Masters attained was of Forgiveness and Compassion.
The two qualities that start removing the blocks and cleansing the whole system, the moment you accept them completely without any if’s or but’s.
Once a person came to Gautam Buddha for Deeksha. Buddha asked him “Can you accept all the world and every person as they are? The person said “Yes” on which Buddha said “Think again may be you have left someone out” The person replies”Yes there is this one nasty man in my neighbour, I just cannot accept him, other then that I have no problem with anyone. That one person cannot cause problem in my Deeksha I am sure” Buddha says “Leave the whole world you just need to accept that one person, and when you are ready, I will give you Deeksha”
Forgiveness and Compassion has to be extended to every person without any strings attached. Without having a slightest of doubt. Many people say this, that I have forgiven everyone in my life. But still they are not able to free their hearts from bitterness. It takes great learning and understanding to realize ALL people and circumstances are worthy of forgiveness. Miraculously Universe keeps on giving circumstances for you to learn these two main rules of it. A negative emotion will just keep visiting you till you have truly felt, accepted, forgiven and released. The more we suppress our negative emotions, the more ways they find out to meet us yet again on our path to freedom. We will never be able to grow without addressing them.  Just after forgiveness, comes the next step of compassion.
Every person has a journey, and most of the times we are unaware of the unhealed, broken parts of the other. How can an unhealed broken person behave, how frustrated he can be or how much anger has he been harboring within him. We make our own story around the behavior of the other. Having compassion means to forgive and then accept him, for as he is. Either you accept or not, you will be the only person experiencing it all. It is your call to experience negative or positive.
The whole energy system of your responds to your decision. If you hold the grudge, the energies will stop moving, cleansing and get stagnated affecting the health of your chakras. If you decide to let go, forgive and fill your heart with a free flow of love and compassion, your energies start to flow cleanse and there by activating your chakras.
You are the decision maker. Do you want your chakras to be healed?

Relax your mind- It is the best supplement for healthy brain and body




|| Learn to Relax your Mind ||
|| Learn to Relax your Mind ||
Can we drink 1 teaspoon of honey + amla juice with lukewarm water in morning? Is it good for brain and body? – S G
Beloved SG,
I don’t think you are having any problems with your brain or for that matter with body.. but it seems your ‘mind’ is making you feel so. Unless one is infected or affected with some deadly fungi, virus or very old age the physical instrument ‘brain’ doesn’t become unhealthy however the functioning of the ‘brain’ manifested as ‘mind’ can always create a major hindrance in body’s normal ‘health-restoration-process’… through the brain of course.
You seem to be too much worried about the brain and body.. nothing unlikely though because majority of people have this issue. They thing their body is not working well while the real culprit is mind. They try all sorts of things, supplements, medication and what not but Alas! that doesn’t seem to work in such cases.
The best health supplement available for most people who think they are diseased is deep ‘Relaxation’. Now you may be wondering I am not saying ‘Meditation’.. I am not saying so because when people project their imagination on their action of meditation they expect unusual experiences. In the first place large number of people can’t meditate because they have neither mastered relaxation nor concentration completely. And meditation happens on its own when either of these two ripen with consistent practice.
SG, you think that Amla and Honey will do the trick. While it may do some good but if you spend sometime analyzing your own thoughts, desires (that includes the passion for healthy body and brain), thinking pattern, quality of interactions you have with others, your soliloquies and dreams you will understand that it is not in the ‘body’ or ‘brain’ but in the mind.  You need to understand your mind and once you know what are its temptations and compulsions you shall be able to give it ‘rest’ too.
I have received many questions from you in the past and I understand what sorts of games your mind is playing with you. So my advice to you is seek refuse in the commands of a Master. Attend satsang,that too without any intention of imposing your worldview on others, do some swadhayaya and may be your next question will not be about Honey, Amala, Garlic or Brahmi.. And we shall be discussing something more meaningful.
Don’t feel I am not concerned with your health. If you are able to walk, talk and think properly I consider you to be health but keep in mind.. whatever we do, whatever we eat.. we aren’t going to stay young forever. And that is the crux of the matter.. matter withers but mind can flower with each passing day if we have the intentions.

Causes and remedies of Sinus


There are many reasons for this condition to develop e.g. allergy, viral infection, bacterial infection, cough tendency of body (kapha prakriti), septum deviation and many more. These pathological conditions are treatable though it requires quite a disciplined approach from your side as well.
However one secret reason for sinusitis is psychological which none of the pathologist or medical expert will ever be able to tell you. That reason is - curbing your original passion in the childhood and settling for some other career (not of your liking) due to parental pressure. Many of those children who are coaxed to take up the career choices of their parent's liking and not theirs are prone to develop minor deviation in the nasal septum and suffer from nasal congestion. That is why I am always in the favor of finding your true passion before you settle in for your career. In today's world people identify careers with authority, money and fame associated with these and children being powerless succumb to undue pressures of their parents. And when child curbs his core desire it takes toll on his physiology and poor child suffers through his life.

Analyze yourself and identify the exact reason for your sinus problem and if you find the root cause to be psychological then even surgeries are not going to help. The problem shall recur despite surgical correction. However don't panic 'Tattva Shakti Vigyaan along with Shakti Healing' does have a solution for such cases. For pathological types ( do ascertain the reason for your sinus before trying to treat yourself) which are due to cough tendency of body, improper diet and routine, allergy etc. following can be tried -

1. Sleep early and get up early. Sleeping till late in the morning causes polyps to swell.
2. Improper or insufficient sleep increases the chance of allergic reactions in the body. Nasal cavity and lungs and eyes being the most vulnerable (due to direct exposure to outside environment) are affected the most.
3. Boosting your immune system is necessary to deal with this issue and for that you should have variety in food and also cut down on the food items which cause cough tendency for example yogurt or dahi in the night.
4. 10 minutes running after proper warm up shall help in bettering the blood circulation which shall wash away the toxic built-ups in your facial tissues.
5. Drinking warm water is most appropriate for sinus patient. Of course this also implies you should not have colas, beverages and icecream etc.
6. Nadi-Shodhana for 10 minutes and sarvaangasana for 2 minutes will help improve blood circulation in facial tissues thus reduce the problem in longer run (initially you may see worsening of the problem - don't worry and don't give up if it happens however ensure that the breathing rate is extremely slow.)
7. If you are not allergic to honey and shilajeet do take it along with milk everyday. As such people suffering from sinus should avoid milk without adding anything to it. If you are allergic to the above two things you may add one TSP of ground turmeric (powdered haldi) with milk. Always consume warm milk.
8. Avoid exposure to sudden temperature variations. And if you are accustomed to AC sleeping - make sure its temperature is set closet to the body temperature i.e. 27 degree Celsius.
9.  Learn jal-neti first as sootra-neti would be bit difficult and may hurt your inner nose (if not done properly or done in haste). Mix one TSP common salt in one liter of lukewarm water and do jal-neti regularly with it.
10.  Wash your face with warm water two to three times a day and do not apply too much pressure while wiping.

As I said earlier the expert advice must be taken to understand what type of sinus problem you have but if all the above things don't work you must check with doctor. Don't delay it as this may be caused by some other issue.
