Being
These are the levels of Being...
Yoga
meditation is the art and
science of systematically
observing, accepting,
understanding,
and
training
each of the levels
of our being,
such that we may
coordinate and integrate
those aspects of ourselves,
and dwell in
the direct experience
of the center of consciousness.

Levels of
our being:
|
Balance
and train all of
our various ways of "being" |
- We are human
beings.
- We are physical
beings.
- We are breathing
beings.
- We are sensing beings.
- We are thinking
beings.
- We are feeling
beings.
- We are intuitive
beings.
- We are spiritual
beings.
What these all have in
common is that "We are Beings." Yet, paradoxically, who we
truly are is none of theses "beings".
We want each of these,
individually, to be balanced and trained so as to not disturb our peace or
tranquility. Then, in silence, we want to go beyond each of these, to the
center of our Being.
There is a metaphor of the
lotus flower, which may live in a swamp, but grows upwards, out of the
swamp, as it opens its petals to the world. This is how we can be through
meditation. We see that while we are physical, breathing, sensing,
thinking, feeling, spiritual beings, we also remember our true nature
which is beyond, or deeper.

This site is devoted to
presenting the ancient Self-Realization path of
the Tradition of the Himalayan masters in simple, understandable and
beneficial ways, while not compromising quality or depth. The goal of
our sadhana or practices is the highest
Joy that comes from the Realization in direct experience of the
center of consciousness, the Self, the Atman or Purusha, which is
one and the same with the Absolute Reality.
This Self-Realization comes through Yoga meditation of the Yoga
Sutras, the contemplative insight of Advaita Vedanta, and the
intense devotion of Samaya Sri Vidya Tantra, the three of which
complement one another like fingers on a hand.
We employ the classical approaches of Raja, Jnana, Karma, and Bhakti
Yoga, as well as Hatha, Kriya, Kundalini, Laya, Mantra, Nada, Siddha,
and Tantra Yoga. Meditation, contemplation, mantra and prayer
finally converge into a unified force directed towards the final
stage, piercing the pearl of wisdom called bindu, leading to the
Absolute.
