Intoxicataing Jallaudin Rumi Quotes-1

Image
Knock, And He'll open the door Vanish, And He'll make you shine like the sun Fall, And He'll raise you to the heavens Become nothing, And He'll turn you into everything. Rumi If you don't have enough madness in you go and rehabilitate yourself. I want to know the joy of how you whisper "more” by Rumi I want to know the joy of how you whisper "more” by Rumi There is another world inside this one no words can describe it. There is living, but no fear of death; There is Spring, but never a turn to Autumn Even if I close my eyes You are still in my heart ? You don't go away from there Where can I escape from You? ~ Deafened by the voice of desire you are unaware the Beloved lives in the core of your heart. Stop the noise and you will hear His voice in the silence.---Rumi what is the heart? It is not human and it is not imaginary. I call it you.~Rumi Love comes with a knife, not some shy question, and not with fears...

Treatise on the Buddhist Tantra Yoga of Niguma PART 1

The Actual Inner Fire Yoga The inner fire yoga involves six subjects, as follows: consuming the inner fire as nutriment; using it as clothing; using it as a resting place; riding it as a magic horse; directing it for liberation from hindering forces; and utilizing it to receive the most powerful initiations. The most important of these is the first of the six: consuming the inner fire as nutriment. This refers to (i) the general and (ii) special- ized ways of working with the three main energy channels and four main pressure points. The General Method Sit in the six-point fire posture as before and meditate upon yourself as the Yogini. Just below your navel are four fires, one in each of the four directions, approximately the size of a bird’s egg. Breathe in air from the two nostrils and pull in lower air from below. Bring these together at the navel. This causes the four fires to blaze forth fiercely with a reddish hue. Extremely hot, they fill one’s body with a reddish flame an...

THE CONTROL OF PSYCHIC PRANA

THE CONTROL OF PSYCHIC PRANA In Prânâyâma we know that the first step, according to the Yogis, is to control the motion of the lungs. What we want to do is to feel the finer motions that are going on in the body. Our minds have become externalised, and have lost sight of the fine motions inside. If we can begin to feel them, we can begin to control them. These nerve currents go on all over the body, bringing life and vitality to every muscle, but we do not feel them. The Yogi says we can learn to do so. How? By taking up and controlling the motion of the lungs; when we have done that for a sufficient length of time, we shall be able to control the finer motions. We now come to the exercises in Pranayama. Sit upright; the body must be kept straight. The spinal cord, although not attached to the vertebral column, is yet inside of it. If you sit crookedly you disturb this spinal cord, so let it be free. Any time that you sit crookedly and try to meditate you do yourself an injury. The t...

SIDDHIS ACCQUIRED THROUGH MEDITATION & RAJA YOGA

RAJA-YOGA IN BRIEF The following is a summary of Râja-Yoga freely translated from the Kurma-Purâna. The fire of Yoga burns the cage of sin that is around a man. Knowledge becomes purified and Nirvâna is directly obtained. From Yoga comes knowledge; knowledge again helps the Yogi. He who combines in himself both Yoga and knowledge, with him the Lord is pleased. Those that practice Mahâyoga, either once a day, or twice a day, or thrice, or always, know them to be gods. Yoga is divided into two parts. One is called Abhâva, and the other, Mahayoga. Where one's self is meditated upon as zero, and bereft of quality, that is called Abhava. That in which one sees the self as full of bliss and bereft of all impurities, and one with God, is called Mahayoga. The Yogi, by each one, realises his Self. The other Yogas that we read and hear of, do not deserve to be ranked with the excellent Mahayoga in which the Yogi finds himself and the whole universe as God. This is the highest of all Yogas. Y...
