Month: October 2010

Dear Friends,

This is a short, yet  pretty concise and important posting reflecting the truth that what we see is by far not all that exists.

This is also for making people aware that when Mohanji gives someone a card, it is not just giving a card. It is like giving a passport to reach him. It is also an assurance of protection. Every card is alive and radiates energy.

This blog post is intended to make people aware that what they see is only the tip of the iceberg. There is much more energy mass hidden. And it takes patience and time, faith and purity to taste the divine energy.

 

 

So please read on.

An old friend from Northern Germany just called me to tell me the following story about Mohanji’s “powers”:
This friend is someone we could call spiritual and connected to God. She also came to the BTW meditation with Mohanji in Hamburg in April this year. Given her experience with Mohanji she was “convinced” of his purity, however back at home and looking at his spiritual card and – what she called – “dark” photo of him, she got doubts. In fact, she felt so uncomfortable looking at Mohanji’s photo on the card, that she wanted to get rid of it.

She did not want to just throw it away though. She was searching for a “respectful” way of disposal. In this search she carried the card around backwards and forwards, sometimes left it somewhere, forgot about it, and then the card popped up again, fell into her lap, appeared in her bathroom etc.

A couple of weeks ago she was fed up with not finding the right mode to get rid of the card and with the fact that it kept on appearing and continued to make her somehow nervous. So she decided to dispose it with the weekly paper recycling service (there is a paper collection service for each household run by the German government). She took her pile of old papers and dropped Mohanji’s spiritual card in there, wrapped it and left it in the street in front of her house ready for the collection. So the batch got picked up.

Few days later she gave the pedestrian area a sweep. Amongst the autumn leaves, dust and pebbles, she noticed a piece of paper. She bent down to have a look – and here we go: Mohanji’s spiritual card was back in her hands! Despite the rain , autumn wind and god knows what, the card was still fairly intact. And now she understood and resistance melted.

 

 

And guess where she keeps this card placed these days? In the drawer of her bedside table!

When this happened she wanted to speak to me immediately but could not reach me. She did not know where I was, but a day later she received my postcard from India…

Today we had a chance to talk, and this is what she told me:
“Marina, this is just mindblowing. It’s not a coincidence. And I have realised that I am by far not through with this man. So far I just caught a glimpse of him. I realise how closed I am for the good things laying right in front of me. I always had a deep feeling for India. Just why in the whole wide world do I not follow this inclination? My mind and my security thinking is in the way. I see it clearly. I keep telling this story to all my friend. Isn’t it just amazing how Mohanji’s card did not let go of me?! Marina, I also know deep within me, he has a bigger mission for humanity.”

 

 

This story really brought tears to my eyes. I’m so happy she understood something about Mohanji here.
And I am again impressed and humbled by the divine choreography.

When Mohanji was in Hamburg, he told her: “Do not worry. I am with you. I do not need anything from you. But, I will be with you.”
He kept his word.

 

 

No more to say at this point.

With love,   Marina

 

 

Dr. Deepali:  At the outset, let me sincerely thank Rajeshwari for almost single-handedly organizing the Thane-Mumbai BTW event on 21-22 Oct 2010. This Mumbai trip was not only relevant in terms of the two meditations that were conducted, but it was also a BTW family’s multinational gathering which happened for the first time at this scale…. Marina came from Germany, Babu flew from Bangkok, his parents and uncle-aunty came from Chennai, Kim Anh from Vietnam, Mohanji,  Sudeep, myself and Moushami from Muscat, Mohanish from Pune,  and Rajeshwari was there to welcome all of us!

Rajeshwari:  Mohanji’s recent visit to Mumbai was one of the biggest blessings of my life.

On one side it was a moment I was so looking forward to, while on the other, I realized I had very few moments to bask in the bliss of his presence as there was so much to be done/coordinated and time was really too less, for it was not just Mohanji but my large BTW family which was coming along and most of them were coming to Thane for the first time. This made it even more important for me to ensure that everybody felt at home and were well looked after.

That day early morning,  exactly when Mahavatar Babaji’s Arati was playing, Mohanji walked into my home. Tears of happiness welled up as I hugged him, just like a child who has been waiting for a long time to meet her beloved father. It was as if I had arrived Home…..

The meditations were slated for 21st evening in Thane, and 22nd evening in Parel area of Mumbai.

 As Mohanji always says, magic of BTW is not in the words of the meditation but in the Grace of the Masters who shower their blessings on us and take us at least one level up during every meditation – and hence, each mediation is unique. That is indeed what we have witnessed this time as well!!

 Meditation in Thane on Oct 21^st

Dr. Deepali: Our meditation venue, Hiranandani school hall, was almost full and meditation went very well.  At the end, when we started Shirdi Sai Baba’s Arati, I clearly saw deep blue-purple light coming out from Mohanji’s back and surrounding and embracing the full hall. It was certainly the presence of the Masters and Mohanji’s  grace. This was the first time I saw this energy /light with my own eyes. I felt deep gratitude towards Mohanji for giving this experience of direct presence of Masters, through him,  to all of us. 

Many of attendees were very receptive to the energy during Shaktipat. But few had very active analytical mind which was resisting the energy flow. Their being was thirsty for the energy experience, but body was not ready as mind was preventing it. Mohanji has infinite store of energy. But if we do not bring empty pots, how can we receive/collect the divine energy? Human mind is skeptical since ages, but it is time to change and accept the grace.

I would like to mention an observation. In spite of sincere request by Rajeshwari, many mobile phones were on and kept on vibratory mode. The ringing/vibration of mobile phones was disturbing the CD player sound and the meditators. We found that it was disturbing Mohanji too, who was in a highly expanded state. During deep silence, as we dive into subtler and subtler layers of existence, this disturbance could give huge jerk to the meditators and may even harm the person! We are experiencing the grace, can we not be in total silence and simply connect with our souls? Why should we allow external factors to disturb our inner peace?     

 

 

One young man was driving his motor bike on the road next to the meditation venue. Suddenly he received a telepathic message from Shirdi Sai Baba: “If you want to see me, come inside. I’m  here!” Without second a thought, he pulled the bike into the compound, parked it, and walked into the hall. He entered almost by the end of the meditation. He clearly felt and saw Sai Baba instead of Mohanji. As a reconfirmation, after a few minutes, he heard Shirdi Sai Baba’s Arati which was played after the meditation – he could no longer control the tears…  He came to Mohanji, touched his feet, and conveyed this whole miracle. Interestingly enough, he had never heard of Mohanji before nor did he know that this meditation will be happening at Hiranandani school.

Sumeet was another person who experienced Sai Baba that evening. When he found out about Mohanji’s arrival to Mumbai, he could not resist himself and came all the way from Jammu to meet Mohanji and attend this meditation, during which he experienced Sai Baba embracing him and was deeply touched.

Two friends had come from Jogeshwari to attend this meditation. They just said, “We experienced what we were missing till now… it was only love and grace, totally unconditional!”

These were only some of the many experiences.

Meditation on Oct 22^nd – in ITC Grand Central, Parel, Mumbai

Rajeshwari: As we arrived to the venue and were getting ready, one of the participants – Hima (this name has been given to him by Mahavatar Babaji to whom he is greatly devoted) arrived with a beautiful Babaji moorti (idol), his own work of art and devotion, which he was guided by Babaji to gift to  Mohanji. This was indeed most unexpected.  And there I was, holding it in my hands and clearly feeling that this was not just a statue, but the grace of BABAJI that arrived.

I unwrapped the cover and had quivers all through, as I witnessed him radiating his unmistakable glow and infinite grace on all of us.

As we sat for the meditation, probably few minutes after being given Shaktipat, I felt the energies of Bade Baba, Shirdi Baba  and Babaji merging in and out of me and enveloping me with warmth and grace. This experience remains unforgettable – never before had I been able to sense the grace of Masters so clearly…

In fact, after the meditation, Hima said: “When you gave me Shaktipat, I saw a golden Shivalinga in my third eye”.

 

 

Hearing the experiences of people always reinforces the huge responsibility and blessing that those of us who got initiated into Shaktipat have been endowed with by Mohanji. My humble gratitude to Mohanji and all my BTW family for giving me this opportunity to add a selfless chapter to my life.  May the Grace always shine upon us!

Marina: On both evenings, before we started giving Shaktipat, Mohanji blessed us, Shaktipat initiates, first. So also before the second session at the ITC, I was called to sit in front of him, and the Shaktipat I got through Mohanji that evening was just out of this world! The “I” or “me” completely dissolved! I don’t know how to describe it any better, but I became Mohanji. As bold as it might sound, I felt his essence moved into my body and being. He completely melted into my cells.

I had to cry, my heart was racing, but was immediately embraced by the divine and calmed down. I felt so extended, as if opened to the whole universe and, at the same time, I could have embraced the whole universe. Total peace, serenity and love enveloped me. In this state I started giving Shaktipat to the meditators. I was experiencing total timelessness and stillness, yet also the strong connection to Mohanji,  the powerful energy waves and crystal clear awareness, while moving from one person to another. Mind-blowing and delicious! And I also sensed which guests had a constitution that was more receptive, and which ones did not…”

Deepali: Mohanji was in great expanded state. All of us were feeling his expansion way before the meditation started. Since afternoon he was requesting all of us to be on time. He said: “Masters always come on time. How can we start late! ( We were little late to start the meditation at Hiranandani). Meditation and grace do not happen at your convenience, make yourself available to receive.”

 

 

We all experienced his deep and intense energy at ITC. After meditation, Sanjivani, a film Producer, who had also come the following day – said: “I never experienced such a deep silence before. During Shaktipat, I felt that energy is charging every cell of my body, I was on a different plane. In fact, as soon as Mohanji entered inside the hall I could feel his energy. Throughout the meditation I felt as if I was in the sky and I saw Chakra and Lord Krishna approaching me. Also I could feel there was only light around me and nothing else. I was completely surrounded by light all over me.I could see Shirdi Sai Baba throughout the meditation, I saw Darbar from Shirdi and Saibaba smiling at me. I received four Shaktipats that day and each one of them were so powerful that even until next day morning the top of my head was feeling heavy. After the meditation in Grand Central, when I opened my eyes, I was throughout seeing Saibaba in Mohanji and the energy was so powerful that I couldnt keep my eyes open. I could only see light all around me. I was floating and my head was heavy even after 1 hr of meditation…Thank you Mohanji and Biba again and again for changing my life, for making me a better individual. ”

Sumeet spontaneously shared- “Mohanji, I have no words to express my joy and the experience of your grace. I do not want anything, just let me know what can I do for you, how can I serve you?” He was in tears.  Majority of us visit Masters and God to ask for something. The way Sumeet shared his genuine gratitude as he spoke on the microphone, it touched everyone present and many others had tears in their eyes too. He said: “It is a divine grace that I reached here from Jammu.”

Moreover, Sumeet had a surprise awaiting him – he wanted to meet his friend Abhishek from Delhi who introduced him to Mohanji and his web site – but never expected that he would meet Abhishek in Mumbai!

One other man said that he was fully guided by Babaji to reach here for this meditation. He also did not hear about Mohanji until that morning. How beautiful! Later we realized that, many were automatically guided to attend this meditation. The experiences and miracles that we share with our friends do initiate someone to get connected with the Masters. All is the leela of the Masters. Those who attend meditation are all sent by Masters.

Mohanji always mentioned that –Masters happen, at the right time, to those who deserve their blessing.

After the meditation, I., Y. and his friends said- “We felt welcomed! Mohanji talked about unconditional love and he actually gave it! We felt we are meeting our family!” Wow…. I felt this was the most beautiful expression and understanding of Mohanji’s energy. Unmistakably, all were touched by Mohanji’s presence, energy and grace.  So many asked—’When will Mohanji come here again!?’

Marina shares the experience of post-meditation dinner with Mohanji

I was high on energy, floating in lightness as well as moving full steam. In front of me the plate with food. Delicious raw vegetables. While popping a piece into my mouth I have this flash of puzzlement.
What am I doing? Why am I feeding this body? This mass of energy. What’s the point in eating, putting food into this body? There is no form. There is no body!  There is no direction. There is just infinite space. I have the impression that food could easily drop to the floor if I place it in my mouth.
Something is here, but it seems just some kind of cloud, maybe a conglomerate of denser energy where the “I” thinks it is located. Why eating? Why talking? And still, something in this cloud is breathing, looking, laughing, talking… What is it that is existing? Just presence and silence! Presence that is laughing, looking, loving.

 

 

Gratitude note

Dr. Deepali: Many who attended the meditation in ITC gave donation for Ammucare. But what really touched me was the way they gave donation – they gave whatever came to their hands from their pocket.

BTW group expresses deep gratitude to ITC Group for offering their hall for this event; sincere thanks to the General Manager Mr. Kuldeep, all those who manned audio/PA system, and the catering personnel in ITC. Moreover, sincere appreciation to Hiranandani School for making their hall available for this event.  

And finally, BTW family offers special gratitude to all those who contributed for the upcoming Ammucare Blanket Distribution charity events in the slums of Delhi, scheduled for Nov 9^th and 14^th ,  2010 – a wonderful opportunity to experience the Grace….

The Miracles of 10-10-10

10-10-10 was indeed a special day – not only numerologically, but also energy-wise. It marked an important shift in our vibratory level, in preparation for 2012.

These energies had a beautiful effect at the subtler layers of our being, a beautiful effect on the crystals, and our Mother Earth as a whole.

Those of us in Muscat had a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a special meditation with Mohanji, and those who were physically away but at the same time connected with Mohanji energy-wise, through meditation, also had a stunning experience. In fact, whoever was connecting with Mohanji at that time felt tremendous energy/heat (we received several testimonials from different countries, shared below). It is amazing to witness this grand connectivity!

I’ll start with my own experience. 🙂

Even during the day itself, while at work, Sudeep and I both felt a strange pressure on the third eye, bordering with headache.

Meditation in the evening was a big surprize – it was completely improvised for the occassion by Mohanji. Multiple Masters entered him and our individual energy fields underwent all kinds of different sensations and energy jolts.

As per Mohanji’s guidance, we simply chanted Om continuously and with varying intensity, focusing on different chakras – starting with Sahasrara. Meditation itself may sound simple, but it had a great power. When we reached the throat chakra and chanted OM, at one point Mohanji said we should chant HUM with force, while breathing out. We were following Mohanji’s HUM chanting which was like a higher command. That created a powerful effect, as if some gigantic force was activated in the inner space.

When we reached Anahata, I experienced my voice during that OM as much different, as if many other souls were chanting through me! It was not my voice at all, it kind of echoed with multitude and was stretching like a chewing gum (too strange to explain) – at that time I also experienced incredibly deep Love, it was just overwhelming. As we were reaching the lower chakras, we were guided to chant more and more softly – it was becoming so tender in there…., and yet felt very powerful, majestic.  As we continued with soft chanting with focus on Muladhara, I slowly felt that I am losing ground and everything is dissolving…

I could feel the top of my head tinkling very much, at times so much that I barely resisted not scratching my head – I knew that tinkle very well and recognized the presence of Masters… (As Mohanji explains, Sahasrara (crown chakra) represents the Supreme God or Parabrahma – if the tinkling happens there, it thus represents the highest). Love and gratitude kept me at the edge of tears continuously.

We were all kind of spaced out afterwards, with the ‘wow’ expression on our faces 🙂 – with a simple chanting of OM, Mohanji took all of us to a very high level of experience…

Experience of MF: Among all of us present around Mohanji that day, MF’s experience stands out as truly special. Visibly overwhelmed, as soon as the meditation was over, MF prostrated at Mohanji’s feet with deep reverence. He was so sweet while trying to convey the magnitude of his experience in limited words.

MF said that during meditation, while chanting OM with focus on throat chakra, his head suddenly became heavy and body got paralyzed/frozen (i.e. he experienced a high energy expansion, a trance state).  During the intense HUM chanting, he felt as if his body became completely empty & inner space was “fully filled with something.” He then understood that it was the enery of Shirdi Baba that entered him! While in that state, he could make out that Baba is asking him something, but he was unable to understand exactly what, so he didn’t answer. He also felt that Baba touched the centre of his chest & stomach. At that point, his body became cold and he was shivering & vibrating, overwhelmed with deep reverence. He was still feeling the heaviness of energy even one hour after the experience. We understood how great the blessing that he received really was and felt so happy for him – his purity and continuous, sincere Seva to Mohanji brought this experience to our dear MF.

I would also like to mention that just a week before this meditation, MF had the incredible blessing of meeting Shirdi Sai Baba in person. He appeared to MF in a form of a beggar, just near the Post Office. MF was about to enter the Post Office, when this ‘beggar’ told him in commanding voice: “Give me some water.” MF was rather confused and, worried that the Post Office may close, went inside to drop one parcel. He came out fast, with intention to bring water to this man, but he disappeared. MF looked around, but the unusal man was nowhere to be found. When he shared this experience with Mohanji and me, we knew right away who that was, and told MF that he has no idea how great of a blessing that was. He actually met Shirdi Sai Baba in person!!! MF was quite dazzled with our reaction and then started feeling bad that he didn’t go get the water immediately, but went to the Post Office instead. During this meditation, Baba reconfirmed his blessing to MF through this intense experience and he was completely overwhelmed.

Moreover, that day Mohanji insisted to bless and gift a Sai Satcharita, the living book about Shirdi Sai Baba’s life, to Murari. He took this inner command very seriously and asked our Pradeep S. from Dubai to send one Satcharita to Muscat by bus. However, we received not one but three Sai Satcharitas. MF was meant to be one of the recipients of Satcharita as well… – Baba’s leela… 🙂

After Mohanji blessed and gifted these 3 Satcharitas, we continued with our experience sharing.

Sudeep said: “The moment Mohanji entered the room that evening, I could feel the energy oozing out of him and noticed the sharp, Shaivic expression in his eyes. His Presence was so powerful that immediately everyone fell into deep silence. During the meditation, I felt the presence of the Masters – first it was Lord Jesus, then Mahavatar Babaji and then, most clearly, Shirdi Baba whom I felt/saw standing right in front of me and then moving through the room. After the meditation, during the Arati, I felt the presence of Bade Baba which melted my heart. Experience was that of total, absolute stillness!

Murari: 

“I felt a lot of peace. At some stage during the meditation I felt that my body is evaporating with deep sense of gratitude towards Guruji (Mohanji), Babaji and the mere fact that I was there with many spiritually advanced loving souls.”

 

Fabian (London):

“Already in the morning meditation (10:10am my local time) I felt a very dense and intense energy rushing through me & could feel my third eye very strongly. But in the afternoon, when I  joined Mohanji’s meditation at 7:30 pm Muscat time I was literally knocked out! I felt a huge shift happening and a rush of heat coming into me -my skin felt like electricity was flowing through it. I then had to lie down on my back because I was so dizzy and overwhelmed! It was amazing! I was electrified the whole rest of the day, hot like a radiator, even while on my way to our local BTW meditation with Shaktipat: in the tube, walking to the venue, during the Shaktipat – it was so intense! When the intro breathing before BTW started and we chanted AUM, it was like somebody else was chanting through me!

Everybody else could also feel that the energy was so extremely dense that day during our Shaktipat – I could still feel the energy flow even the next morning.” After sharing this with Mohanji, he told me that Fabian’s connectivity with him has increased manifold. This is in proportion to one’s complete faith and surrender. 

Babu (Vietnam):

“During 10th Oct, I was in Ho Chi Minh city. Actually I was not able to join the meditation on that day because it was raining heavily.

On that evening around 7PM, I suddenly got a severe headache. I tried to reduce it with medicine, pain balm and head massage, but nothing worked. I noticed that the headache was very different and distinct, as if something was shifting within  my head.

I slept somehow that night, and next day morning was my travel back to Bangkok. To my great surprise, I was able to wake up without any alarm in early morning and there was no symptoms of headache – totally relaxed and feeling very fresh!

Later on, when I spoke to Mohanji , I came to understand that he was “working on me” -:). I was very much excited and the level of happiness cannot be explained by words.

Aum Sai Ram!!!”

 

 

Marina (Germany)- currently in India:

“Dear all, just a little intro to give you an idea on how the day unfolded before my travel companion Abhishek and I got to the BTW & Shaktipat session in the evening of the 10.10.10.
Midday on the 10.10., Abhishek and myself arrived in Haridwar. Having organized everything for a “proper” visit at the temple/samadhi of Lahiri Mahasaya (flowers, fruit, fragrance, sweets,…) we reached that Kriya Yoga ashram just in time for a contemplation and walk around the temple before the gates closed (!). We moved on to the Samadhi of Lahiri M and sat down for a meditation. The energy was so intense in that little room. I cannot recall having felt ever more clearly the energy rising along the spine up, kind of stopping by at each chakra. I felt and saw orange/yellow lava-like energy rising in a constant flow and embracing each chakra upwards like a bus at a busstop (sorry if that’s too much of a simplification, but hopefully it gives you the picture).
To cut a potentially long story short, we moved on towards Rishikesh and checked in at the hotel (Divine Resort!) in Tapovan. Sunset in the magnificent environment overlooking Ganga and the lower mountains of Himalaya – just so beautiful!
At 21:45, Abhishek and I sat down for the BTW mediation. We knew that at the same time Mohanji was starting to conduct the meditation in Muscat.
Although our session was highly improvised, we had a really intense experience. To put you in the picture:
we had neither a stereo nor a laptop. I used my Ipod without headphones on max volume, so we could hear Mohanji’s voice at least, even if the sound was really “squeezed”. We got one tea light from the hotel reception and I retrieved out of my purse two of Mohanji’s spiritual cards. And off we went.

Pranayama was pretty focusing and caused pleasant tingling in the cells of the back, shoulders, arms and hands. Energy rose almost in an instant and I gave Abhishek several Shaktipats of which each one felt completely different. During one Shaktipat round I could not even feel his head upon touch – it seemed like a mass of energy and I almost feared this body in front of me would dissolve completely!
Mohanji is such a powerhouse of love and healing! Connecting to him, I felt that a massive shedding/burning of blockages was taking place in Abhishek. In fact, I thought the palms of my hands will get BURNED by all that energy flow during Shaktipat.
What else to add? Not more, just that we got into that wonderful space of stillness,

light, purity and serenity. The Power of Purity.  :-)”

Abhishek:

“With the blessings of Mohanji, I got another chance to visit the mighty Himalayas after a one month gap, with my spiritual sister from Germany, Marina. It was a delight & pleasure to spend time with such a beautiful, evolved soul. Marina is one of the closest disciples of Mohanji and one of the first to be initiated into Shaktipat by Mohanji. She is truly an embodiment of love & light.

After an  amazing day, we reached Haridwar and around 10pm synchronized our meditation with Mohanji’s in Muscat. Both of us got drenched with the divine nectar of Mohanji, who was constantly revealing his presence to us, in different forms. Throughout the meditation, I felt as if we were floating in the air, in some other LOKA. I received several astral Shaktipats from Mohanji & a few from Marina. A great release of energy started happening, from the depth my being .”
