Guest guest Posted April 14, 2002 Report Share Posted April 14, 2002 Dear Hari Das, Thanks on the clear illucidation. The technique of Samyama is given by His Holiness Shri Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in his TM-sidhi program. Being the practicant of the same for years, I know the technique by His Grace and my own experience. One more point is important. The technique works on the basis of samadhi. First, one must achieve something required by Maharishi Patanjali that is : Yoga chiti vriti nirodah..that is one must calm his mind through dhyan. Then, the technique is practiced Triyam ekatra or all three:dhyana, dharana and samadhi at the same time. The sidhi comes only AFTER the expereince of samadhi. So there is no point in sidhi. It is just there to prove the efficency of the technique and expreince of samadhi. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi gave the very same techniqes and sutras which may be found in yoga sutras of Patanjali Best wishes Zoran Gee Sunn wrote: > Om Namo Bhagavate Sivanandaya > > Namaste, > > Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaji said; > > The three- Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi- together > constitute Samyama. > Samyama is the name given to the combined practice > of Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi at one and the same > time. > By Samyama on external objects the Yogi gets various > Siddhis and hidden knowledge of the universe of > Tanmatras, etc. > By concentration on Indriyas, Ahankaras, mind, etc., > he gets various powers and experiences. > > These three(Dharana,Dhyana and Samadhi) are more > internal than the preceeding Yama, Niyama, Asana, > Pranayama and Pratyahara. > These constitute the Yoga proper. > The five accessories are the external means of Yoga. > These three directly bring Samadhi. > The other five purify the body, Prana and Indriyas. > Hence these three are called Antaranga Sadhana. > > By the conquest of Samyama comes the stage of cognition. > As Samyama becomes firmer and firmer, so does the > knowledge of Samadhi become more and more lucid. > This is the fruit of the practice of Samyama. > Samyama should become very natural. > Then the knowledge flashes like anything. > Samyama is a powerful weapon for the Yogi. > Just as the archer aims at the gross objects at first > and then takes to subtle objects, he does great deal > of practice and ascends the Yogic ladder rung by rung. > > By Samyama on the Sun comes the knowledge of the worlds. > By samyama on the Moon, comes the knowledge of the > region of stars. > By Samyama on the pole star, comes the knowledge of > the movements of the stars. > By Samyama on the strength of elephants and others, > comes their strength. > > By Samyama on the signs(of others), comes the knowlege > of their minds. > By Samyama on the relation of the ear and ether, > comes the divine hearing. > By Samyama on the relation between ether and body, > to the yogi attaining the lightness of cotton, > comes the power of passage through ether(air). > > By Samyama and direct perception of the Samskaras > (impressions of mind), comes the knowledge of the > previous birth. > By Samyama on the distinctive relation between Sattva > (purity) and Purusha(the Soul), comes the power of > omnipotence and omniscience. > By Samyama on the Chakra(plexus) of navel, comes the > knowledge of the body. > > By Samyama on the Chakra at the pit of the throat, > comes the removal of hunger and thirst. > By samyama on the light of the head, comes the Darshan > of Siddhas. > > Without Chitta-Suddhi, Samyama is not possible. > > Hari Om > Hari Das > > Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya; Hare Krishna; Om Tat Sat > : gjlist- > > > > Your use of is subject to -- Zoran Radosavljevic Jyotish Teacher at Shri Jagannath Vedic Centre mails: ahimsa ahimsa web address: http://www.sjvc.co.yu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
