 Mastery Comes with Humility
with meditation & images  |
When we are in self-denial we feel that everything we say should be heard or noticed. “I” is very important to us. If we can understand that “We” is very important to us, and go one step further to know that “Thou” is very important to us, the problems of life are solved. When “I” is important we are alone. When “We” is important, we are many. When “Thou” is important, God and the universe are with us. You must decide if you want to live as I, We or Thou.
MEDITATION - Sabh Bhaavana Kriya
“Sabh” means “total,” “Bhaavana” means “good will” and “Kriya” means “locked action.”
Posture: Sit straight in a cross-legged position. Hold your arms in front of the body. The elbows are bent at 90 degree angle, with the forearms and fingers pointing upwards. Hands are at shoulder level, with palms facing inward, about 1 or 2 inches apart. Sweep the hands up and over the crown of the head and down again in rhythm with the “Maha Mrityunja Mantra." You are passing Death over your being, healing yourself.
Eyes: Eyes are closed.
