Leksjon 38
-
Hva er ditt tidsperspektiv?
Fra: Yogani
Dato: Tirsdag 9 Desember, 2003 15:47
Nye Medlemmer: Det anbefales at du starter lese p begynnelsen av dette
arkivet, da tidligere leksjoner danner grunnlaget for denne leksjonen. Den
frste leksjonen er: "Hvorfor
Denne Diskusjonen?"
Vi har et lite dilemma her. Det har med tid gjre. Vi er n klare til
bevege diskusjonen videre over i det neste omrdet innenfor avansert yoga
praksis.
Sprsmlet er, er du klar?
Ja,
sier du, Jeg vil gjerne lese om det.
Dilemmaet ligger ikke s mye i lesingen. Det handler mer om anvendelsen av
kunnskapen, om hvordan den skal settes ut i livet.
Leksjonene som skrives her er resultatet av flere tir med erfaring innen
yoga. Det vil ta omtrent seks mneder fullt ut beskrive for deg hvordan de
viktigste avanserte yoga velsene utfres, og hva effekten av disse vil vre.
Nr skrivearbeidet er komplett vil du vre i stand til lese alt sammen p
bare noen f dager. Det er innlysende at det ikke er tilrdelig for deg
begynne med alle disse avanserte yoga velsene innenfor det samme tidsrommet
det vil ta deg lese om dem. Det vil ikke vre mulig. Hvert stadium i
praksisen krever en lang periode med akklimatisering fr vi kan bevege oss
inn i det neste stadiet p en vellykket mte. Hvis noen forsker lpe fr
de har mestret det g p en forholdsvis grei mte, er det stor sjanse for
at de vil falle og sl seg. Dette er sant ogs nr det gjelder det ta opp
avansert yoga praksis. Det bygge den opp gradvis er ikke en luksus det
er en ndvendighet. S dette er dilemmaet. Hvordan vil du over tid bygge opp
praksisen din p en riktig mte etter fra frste rad ha mottatt all denne
sterke informasjonen? Det koker ned til det finne ut hva ditt unike
tidsperspektiv vil vre, tempoet du beveger deg i, og det vre metodisk i
oppbyggingen mens du passer p at du ikke tar opp for mye p en gang. Alle
er forskjellige og har ulik kapasitet nr det gjelder det legge til nye
velser. Du m finne ditt eget tempo, ditt eget tidsperspektiv; det som gir
fremgang, og samtidig stabilitet. Utfordringen pleide ligge i det finne
kunnskapen. Her ligger utfordringen i det anvende den s effektivt som du
fler deg inspirert til, uten overdrive og dermed falle av vognen, for
si det p den mten.
I
gamle dager ble det sagt at det var bedre motta sterke ndelige teknikker
flere liv forsinket, heller enn et minutt for tidlig. velsene ble delt ut
med lange mellomrom over lang tid og p en individuell basis. Dette passer
drlig i den direkte, massemarkedinnrettede informasjonsalderen vi lever i
n, der ny anvendelseskunnskap p mange omrder oppdaterer den gamle med f
rs mellomrom. In the old days, it was said that it was better to receive
powerful spiritual techniques lifetimes late, rather than a minute too soon.
Practices were doled out sparingly over long periods of time on an
individualized basis. This hardly fits with the face-paced, mass-market
information age we now live in, where, in many fields, new applications of
knowledge supercede the old every few years.

There is a need to speed up the
transmission and integration of the knowledge of advanced yoga practices. It
needs to simplified and codified in ways that will bring it into the
mainstream of this scientific age. It has to be turned over to the people,
and the people must decide how it will be applied for practical benefit for
present and future generations. It must happen, or the methods of
transmitting this knowledge will remain in the dark ages, and few will
benefit. The world can no longer afford to be without effective and freely
available methods for unfolding the inner nature of humanity.
There
are those who say, "Do not throw pearls before swine." Two thousand years
ago this may have been good advice for those who had spiritual knowledge. If
they were open in its dissemination, it was likely they would be attacked by
an angry, superstitious mob, and executed soon after.
Today, we need a more open approach. We stand at an important juncture in
history. Can we continue to sit by and regard the human race as a mob, as
swine, undeserving of the knowledge that will transform it? No. Humanity is
more than that, and deserves to have the means to experience its true
nature. It is time for change.
We
stand on the edge of a massive shift in human awareness. Its consequences
exceed the realization centuries ago that the earth is round and not flat,
and that the sun is the center of the solar system and not the earth. The
realization occurring in the present is that the interior of the human being
is the center of divine experience, of God, and of truth. It is not
somewhere else. External experiences, whether they appear divine or not, are
but mirrors of the internal experience of the human being. Every human being
is a window, a portal, from this world to the infinite, and from the
infinite to this world.
These lessons give you the most
important tools of human transformation, the means to open the portal in
you. The decision making on what practices to do is in your hands. It is no
different than applying any form of knowledge. We are all familiar with
learning to apply powerful technologies prudently and beneficially
automobiles, household machinery, modern medicine, electricity, the
unlimited information of the internet We can use these things effectively
within a reasonable learning period. This is an instruction manual on
advanced yoga practices. Wise practitioners will know what to do with it.
Others will let it go by, and it will incubate for a while, which is part of
the awakening process also.
The
knowledge is here. It is suggested you take it in. But don't act on it all
at once. Take it one step at a time. Become comfortable in a practice before
you add on the next one. The more we evolve in our practice to a comfortable
routine, the easier will we be able to take on something new. It takes time.
We have already added cross-legged
sitting to our meditation routine. Have you been making good progress with
that? We are about to embark on a new leg of the journey pranayama.
Pranayama will evolve into a complex practice with far-reaching effects. We
will build it up with simple, logical steps. Even so, if you are uneven in
your meditation practice, and trying to get in cross-legged position at the
same time, taking on pranayama will be too much for now. Way too much. So
wait until the meditation and crossed legs are stable. You may be one who
skips the crossed legs altogether. That's okay. Still, be sure your
meditation is comfortable and in a steady routine before taking on pranayama.
This
message of taking it gradually will be repeated over and over again as we,
in very few pages, step though eons of powerful spiritual knowledge designed
for opening your inner doors.
The
dilemma of timing will be resolved if you respect the power and delicacy of
this knowledge, and apply it responsibly in your life. It is recommended you
err on the side of sticking with regular, stable practice. Always consider
carefully before you add a new practice. If you overdo and feel instability,
back off to your last stable platform of practice. There you can regroup and
take your time considering the best way to move ahead.
Meditation is the core practice. With it alone you will go far. Everything
else is designed to enhance the process of meditation, to enhance the flow
of pure bliss consciousness through the body and in the surroundings. If it
is only meditation you are interested in, it will be enough. If you are
interested in more, there will be plenty for you here.
Guruen er inni deg.
