We talked about connecting with the original "I" - when all other "I"'s have been eliminated, I am not this, I am not that... then what is this I that still remains? The benefit of this inquiry is the passage way changes from falling into a pit of hell, to walking through a pearly gate to heaven. It's the same life, the same doorway, but it's a whole different experience. Who is the I that ever remains?
Thank you for this new experience in our lovely community 🙏🏻🌈. I love the concept this time with beginning alone and ending in the group.
And I love how the exercises of the ‚Awakening To Your 10 Bodies Kriya‘ move my whole physical body and the energy that flows through it in the lot of breaks I built in and the Meditation at the end and the connection to everyone who is in that practice together here.
On the afternoon of August 8th I started and moved the 40 day experience than in the morning as Sadhana the following day.
I have a mixed practice in the Sadhana now. Sometimes I read the JapJi together with a group (via Zoom or in person) of the Guru Ram Das Aquarian Academy here in Boizenburg, Germany and than log out of Zoom and do the rest of the practice alone with the…
Sending Love and heartfelt encouragement as we begin this journey together. My name is Kelly and I'm from Decatur, GA where I am a Mama to 2 sweet girls, a midwife and a meditator. I am new to this community but have been blessed by Snatam Kaur's music for 11.5 years (I know exactly because I listened to her album in preparation for and during the labor of my eldest, Maya who will be 12 soon 🥰). I feel so blessed to be with new friends and full of joy to embark on this new journey.
May we all be well and know deep peace, Kelly
One last post about this journey and it´s last two days:
Day 39, September 15th:
I did the Meditation first time with the video from our first check in, relaxed in the afternoon. At around 4 minutes I couldn´t hold the breathing out and had some small breaths in between before going to the next minute. I thought the whole tim that "I love to breath in, I love to hold the breath and I love to breath out". No matter that it wasn´t like that than. Through the upcoming fear. And I recognized that my heartbeat got really slow and regular in the holding-part. Most of the time I had a breathing-in reflex at around 15 or 16 seconds breathing out, that I - or better my higher self - could go over by breathing out even a little more and than breathing in joyfully. The last 2 minutes again with Leo 😊 on my lap. Now afterwards I am grateful for being really peaceful, calm and relaxed and read - after writing! - that this is what the meditation can give us. It works!
Day 40, September 16th:
The 40th day 😀, I meditated for the 11 minutes in the early afternoon and could hold the One-Minute-Breath the whole 11 minutes today! Just with music and my timer again. First I thought that "1) I breath in new energy, and 2) let the energy circle now and than 3) let the old energy go now". Than I modified a little to I enjoy steps 1 to 3. I really enjoyed and this time I meditated while looking to a Tratakam picture of Yogi Bhajan and my yoga timer alternately having Gobinde, Mukande... as music in the background.
Now I am glad that I made it somehow through the whole 40 days and look forward to our meeting later, meditating with our group the whole time. I will try it with closed eyes and the music like at the end of the last two classes this time.
And I look forward 😄 to a week vacation 🚅🚗 visiting some friends starting tomorrow, having other friends here taking care of Leo while I am away 💚 . Without being online that much, despite the remaining 40-day-journey with the "Kriya for Elevation" with the Sadhana group of the Guru Ram Das Aquarian Academy and maybe the Millis Ashram Gurdwara,🙏 if it fits in the time with my friends.
