Swadhyaya: When Self Learns It-Self

Yogacharya Shaminder Singh

India

 

There are more than one ways to translate the Swadhyaya. Some

translate it as the study of scriptures some at the study of Supreme

Self and others as study of the inner self within us.

 

Combination of Swa & Adhaya, this world literally means self study

where Swa stands for self and Adhaya is `study'. According to

Yogamaharishi Swamiji Dr. Gitananda Giri Guru Maharaj, Swadhyaya

means self-, analysis self study, self awareness.

 

Study of that self, which is piled up, covered up by the layers and

layers that are not corresponding to the real inner self. These

layers form through various sources. People interact, praise,

compliment, comment, reward & punish, deal and lead others according

to there own understandings, perceptions, attitudes, moods needs and

value systems. These bombardments affect the person whether she/he

be a child, adolescent, young or older one. Moreover, these

influences may not be congruent and compatible enough to each other

to provide a holistic input, creating confusion, chaos within the

self. We keep all this inside and interpret these inputs and react

in very personalized way. This creates complexity within us and we

become multifaceted subjects of all experiences. It can create life

richer if everything is ordered and purified otherwise it can pile

up many things in and around us, which can create unhappiness, non-

directedness and other Kleshas.

 

In this chaos we can completely forget why we are here,

" where " we

are, what is our real nature, what is our dharma, what is our real

self and who we are. We may become ignorant, unaware and then forget

that we are unaware and then can forget that we forget something

immensely valuable. The awareness, the consciousness. An Amma

pointed out that we are to realize how unaware we are.

 

Swadhyaya is uncovering all what we have been gathered right from

the beginning of our `source.' It's studying the whole

self. Adhaya

came from Adhi, which means light. Swadhyaya is to throw light to

the self, which is deep within the dark recesses of our subjective

and / or collective sub-consciousness and unconsciousness. This

journey is an objective journey without biases, prerequisite

judgments - to seek one's true nature. According to Swamiji,

to know

and become aware of body, emotion & mind, even to become aware

of " the awareness "

 

Swadhyaya is for. Amma says, " Self Examination, Self Study,

Self -

Awareness, Consciousness of one's self in thoughts, words, deeds,

even in sleep and dream is sine qua non of Yogic living. She quotes

Socrates' statement, " The unexamined life is not worthy

leading. "

It's human nature to introspect. We all have the capacity to

think

what we do, feel and even what we think. But this is not what

Patanjali says Swadhyaya as this meta-thinking or meta-cognition is

still and indulgence, there are deep attachments. Man has tremendous

mental capacities, he is great observer of others behavior, can

write great analysis, creative poems & writings, and simultaneously

can remain ignorant, egoistic and / or egotistic or collectively we

can say, " non-Yogic " . That's why many intellectuals,

great poets,

philosophers, psychologists, prolific writers seem full of ego and

may not be able to realize even their own saying & writings.

 

We can train our mind to reason, think and establish associations of

thoughts, languages and expressions with fine gestures while not

realizing our own thoughts, reasoning and expressions. As Dr.

Ananda says, " A persons can conceptualize nicely without

realizing

it " . In addition, this can be a source of ego or false

satisfaction

that " I found " , which in reality it is another illusion. It

is good

to be ignorant while knowing that " I don't know " rather

than to be

an ignorant - intellectual, believing that " I know " .

Here, the

structure of brain is worthy to be understood. We have three parts

of the brain: the lower brain which is reptilian, is older one,

hence called animal brain, control all vital activities like

breathing, walking, talking, sleeping, eating blood pressure etc.,

Eventually all what is related to animal. The middle part of the

brain is mammalian, related to emotion and memory along with other

functions. This is still animal brain controlling little more subtle

process like play, love, domination and other such instincts. The

higher (new brain) part of the brain is called cerebral cortex;

enable us to process all cognitive functions like thinking,

imagining, reasoning and also the processes of consciousness. Our

intelligences, creativities are related to this higher brain which

many not be having full communication and coherence with and between

the lower brain and middle brain which allow animal instincts,

emotions, and consequently animal deeds, actions. This means not

that emotions are totally sin, rather emotions are also vital for

our normal functioning, day to day life as we energized by emotions.

In Bharat Natyam we find nine Rasa, which are purified emotions,

controlled by higher brain i.e. the Consciousness. We purify and

control our emotions by Viveka, rising above the reptilian and

mammalian brain. These all are walls we create between the reality

and life, between life and self. We can create all types of walls,

subtle one, abstract one. Intellectual ones. Swadhyaya's is

needed

to remove all these walls. These walls create many personalities

within one individual. We cover persona over persona which many be

having some practical value but are dangerous when one identify one

self with them.

Sat Nam!

 

I think it's just a matter in how to reach the same goal: what I say to my

students and who ask if there is a better type of Yoga, I just tell that

till it's a form of Yoga coming from a thousand-year tradition (and holy

indian writ), every Yoga is a good one.

 

What we see now (power yoga, stretch yoga, fit yoga, hot yoga, just yoga,

flex yoga) has no link with the tradition but it's just a marketing

operation trying to make more attractive a form gymnastics (doesn't sound

cool " I go pratice power yoga " ?).

 

Though......this is just my opinion.

Welcome Lisa,

 

Your willingness will serve you well. I began my practice at the age

of 47, six month after quitting smoking, stressed out and totally out

of touch with my true self, my peaceful self. I am now teaching,

healthy, happy and somewhat holy.

I have only 1 question, What is the contration concept you are talking about?

dear Golden Cougar Wolfi will share a few of my thoughts to your responses. . .i recently heard that only 7% of communication is actually transmitted in electronic email exchange. . .93% is lost because we cannot hear the voice and see the eyes. . . I have followed this group for about a year but have not ventured forth and introduced myself. . . yeti have been blessed and heart warmed by the quality of love, soundness, and goodness of this group and the ones that post here regularity. I think your friend Andrea pointed you to a gathering of grace and i send these thoughts with a prayer for you to be gentle and loving to yourself as you examine the areas of your life that is touched by fear and discomfort. . .Maybe or maybe not these are just what come to me, and hope you know they are offered as just something you might be able to dance with long enough to draw to or push away in the pursuit of your bringing

forth what is right for you. . .(Just as i am typing a dove has landed on my window ledge. . .and with the window open she/he is cooing a song. . . I hope she becomes part of the 7% you receive. . . .May she wraps you in peace and love this day. . . and the next one after that. . . .)"I still need to figure out how to live with and (I hate to use the word because it really isn't what I mean) control the energy. I need it to flow softer through me. So go ahead all, give me everything you have. I am open to all and I do hope I can articulate and communicate better with everyone."These are words i like better than control; to be in right relationship, to take responsibility for, or to self master. . .perhaps you could ask your angelic entities and your teacher within to bring forth the word that resonates for you. . .i think words are important for they are packets of energy that creates our

reality with each one that is spoken. . .and words come from the mind. . . Perhaps a short cut would be to contemplate the mind in all of this?. . . Just a few of my thoughts about the mind. . .When the mind is strong and quiet no thing can touch your being that you do not want. . . The value of a good healthy mind directed through self-mastery is beyond measure. . .With self mastery of the mind there will be no more restlessness, no more fear, no more "why", no more contraction. . .no agitation. . . Chrism's suggestion of the safeties are great medicine for the mind. . . The mind is but a vibration, a contracted part of consciousness, the mind creates infinite thoughts just as consciousness creates infinite universes. . . When the mind is in a contracted place and we have it crammed full of stuff based on our egoic reality, we are in bondage. . . The egoic mind generates all kinds of smoke and mirrors, fears, drama,traumas, and

disasters. . .that is what all ego(s) do. . .But it is so understandable because as soon as we step up with self-mastery of the mind, then egoic is dethroned and all the trauma/drama is replaced with a great joy and a great power. . . The walls start to collapse and one begins to find access to the universal mind. . . we are speaking of Christ consciousness here. . .or Divine Mother consciousness. . .or I Am That. . . The egoic mind must become lessened and dissolved for your awakening to become established and complete. . .but please be kind and loving to the false dictorial egoic for it is so very scared of dying . . . The doorway to Universal Mind is stillness. . .quietness. . . .silence. . .The nature of the egoic mind is to roam about and create judgments and dissoance. . .with each time we allow the mind to create "other" we are living in the illusion of the separation from our true source . . . It has been my

experience that every time i am in contraction, i have created "other" in some subtle or not so subtle way. . . .i must confess. . .i have not been sufficient in "controlling" the energy. . . what has worked for me has been to not resist it, and to commit to working with the blocks (fear) that cause contraction, which causes pain and discomfort, not the kundalini. . . At first i wanted to "control" it. . .it's strength frightened me, for a couple of years, 24/24 it felt like a steel cable was drilling through and ripping tissue. I would sit on the couch and try to hold the kundalini down, and the force would elevate me about 8 inches into the air. i felt fear and such aloneness during that time. . . .But now 14 years later, that time period was such grace. . . for Kundalini Ma walks us through pits of fire many times, and that is where we are forced to dive deep into the strength of our Source. . . This is an

alchemical process and i do not think there is an exit door until there is merging into the One from which we came. . . Sister get use to the fire and ice. . .the dross will be separated and you are becoming refined into the pure gold of your true Self. . . Golden Cougar Wolf, you are in the process of becoming the lead of your name. . ."It isn´t that I don´t feel understood, I think I am saying it wrong and leading them to confusion and misunderstanding. I am not really good on the communication. I may seem articulate but really I struggle with talking to anyone and it seems whenever I open my mouth it comes out all wrong."Sweetie, can you read the above comment and see the contradition? ( It isn't that I dont feel understood cupped with leading them to confusion and misunderstanding. ) It seems to me, you are double binding yourself and maybe others, in your thinking and each time it leaves you

feeling inadequte. . . .with either misunderstood or you as an inadequte communicator. . . .Maybe as you a feel contraction whether it be in your mind, heart or body, ask have i laid a double bind here, resulting in a lose-lose for myself and/or the one i am communicating?Personally i think you are brave and doing a darn good job communicating and hanging in there as you are allowing yourself to go through an important and significant peel with others in this group. . .Thank you for showing us your courage, this too is a beautiful allowance. . . "I first noticed my energy in Catholic school. There was a girl there with an incurable disease. She kept saying that all she needed to do was touch me. Finally one day she did and fell down. She was rushed to the hospital and they found out that she was cured. I was then punished by the sisters and called the devil. Could be why I have a problem with it? I don´t know for

sure.)"You are not the devil. . .you are a child of God. . .and you are not alone in experiencing abusive energy at the hands of religious leaders. . . .I can see where the experience must of been painful. . .the Great was working through you and i know others in this group can testify to the goodness, warmth, and blessing that one experiences when the vessel is utilized for healing or service to others. . . .It feels good. . . . feel the love and wrap yourself in it like a child receiving a kiss from a cherished Mother. . .just give thanks for the allowance and try not to allow the ego to become tangled in the butt and rebuttal of it all. . . (I just don´t think I have the right to know someone else personal life. )How many of us are there here?. . . One? . . . With Kundalini you are stepping into a world that has different structures than the programmed world. . . If there is

just One, then how is it possilbe to not have increasing levels of awareness to all? Oneness is truth. . . separation is the illusion. . . . In Universal Consciousness we can draw all knowledge, we know that we can know all, without sudying and without process of reasoning, there is no sense of I connected to it, but rather in emptiness, it seeks to fill the void, that space is where we are with the whole.Maybe the important question is what to do when you feel you have access to material about someone else personal life?. . . . Because one receives, does not mean one has to share it. . . .every situation is different. . .and if you are getting kicked in the head for sharing it, then the question might be to your inner teacher; Instruct me on how and whether i am suppose to do with this???. . . Often times it is not wise to share everything one receives, but what we can do is drop to the heart and send loving

kindness and prayers for guidance and protection. . . .Maybe you are being called to be a prayer warrior rather than a messanger for where you are with your own transformation if you are receiving dissonace about sharing it or unkindness when you do share it?. . . .(I don´t need them to be anything but what they are. I just wonder why they want to tell me everything. Is there a reason for a lowly human to know the mind of G-d? What would the reason be? If yes, why not everyone on the planet? Why only aselect few? I wonder why. Why me? Why am I so special that I can talk to spirits and angels? All I have ever wanted was to be normal. I don´t like being different and yet, here I am. Back to being different. )This is another place you have set a double bind for yourself. . . . If you did not need them to be any other way but the way they are, then you would not be wanting to tell them to shut up. . .

..Golden Cougar Wolf. . .this one is a bit more difficult for the egoic to contemplate. . . .but one that i have allowed to play through my own angst for years. . . .It comes from the field of psychology but find that it really applies to my own spiritual process. . . .( The flip side of grandiosity is inferiority and the back side of inferiority is grandiosity. ) Both inferiority and grandiosity is of the ego. . . .I readily confess that my ego's live and not die script is: I am too much or i am not enough . . . .Any time i am in either one of those i am living from the egoic level. . . .and know that is the time for my most Holy words; Come Holy Mother, lift me to the space that is higher. . . I am sure you have heard of Marianne Williamson's quote:

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."We are all at various levels of consciousness and nothing and no one is fixed, except in the small mind. . . .some day all will complete their

unique journey of return and enter to Oneness. . . .and that does not mean others will cross the finish line before another, as long as there is one behind we must be there to help them to caught up until we can all join hands and cross into Oneness and Wholeness, that is the mathmatical equation of Oneness. . .there is only One. . .Sweetie , you left normal a long time ago. . . .offter it up. . .. . . . .This is the place i recognize that could become a place of stuckness. . . .You have asked the question, Why am i speical?. . . .You are not special. . . ."Special" is another one of our egoic illusions. . . If you allow yourself to really parse this concept, you will see that special is another concept of ego. . . Special is a statement that i am not like "other" people. . .the belief in special suggests other. . . and

other suggests separation. . .Special is based on the belief of something or someone being more or some one or someone being less. . .Special implies comparison, and comparison implies heiarachy, and on and on. . .special is an egoic trap. . . .I believe the Kundalini journey is about leaving "special". . .we are not special. . . . and our destination is not into specialness. . . I believe one of the most important lessons we can learn has to do with the illusion of "special". . . .and as we let this one go. . .we start to embrace Oneness. . . .On the other side of special. . .. . . you are love. . . you are pure. . . you are simple. . . .you are brighter than a million suns. . .you are beautiful. . . .magnificient. . .and precious. . .Namasteordinary sparrow

take your hand make a tight closed fist. . .continue to hold it tight for for a

few minute. . .that is a contraction. . .now slowly release your hand. . .that

is expansion. . . which feels more natural? Which one is more conducive of flow?

we can be in mental contraction, emotional contraction, spiritual contraction in

the same way we can be in physical contraction. . .often times one will draw us

into multiple contractions at various levels. . .

 

 

one of the most powerful questions i ask when in non-acceptance or

non-surrender or telling myself or others that something or someone is not

suppose to be the way it is; Am i in contraction or expansion? Then i move into

a moment-to-moment witnessing -and observe am i in

constriction/despair/nobodyness, or expansion/joy? I try to witness it, name it,

and let it go into expansion. . .for me expansion is love. . .

 

Here is a quote i like about contraction and expansion;

 

 

" All expansion is life, and all contraction is death. Love therefore only the

laws of life. He who loves, lives, and he who is selfish, is dying. Therefore

love for loves sake, because it is the law of life, just as you breathe to

live. " Swami Vivekananda

 

Namaste

 

may you be wrapped in love, light, life, and laughter

anal fistulas is not a problem. Food intake is important in this regard.

 

following should not be done at any cause

 

Food should be taken inside after chewing nicely. Avoid chilli , spicy and gravy oriented

 

take caster oil and apply on the outside and inside of the anal area and then sit in Hot water basin. You should try daily twice morning and evening.

 

fibre oriented foods are important. Plantain flower, stem and water.

 

Plantain water also can be applied in the area affected of anal.

 

keep your fingers neat and clean

Just my opinion but . . . speaking as a scientist -- utter nonsense. The

amount of salt you consume on any give day has a far greater influence on

water retention than any putative gravitational effect.

true, moon gravity works only on large pools of water, where the edges

of the water spand over a large area on earth, then the moon's gravity

works on one end of it more then on the other. we have read about this

topic already on this list and scientists on it aways disputed this

" water theory " as Tom did.

 

Astrologicaly speaking the opposition of the Saturn to the Sun should

have much stronger effect on us (messing up our energies) and other

aspects as well... so it is as Sharath had said: Hindus have many pujas

to perform on full and new moon, therefore they can't fit physical yoga

practice into the schedule... (or take it as their personal " Sunday " --or

as Jewish Saturday

 

yesterday was a full moon and i felt great! cheers to the full moon!
