Welcome, My Dear Evolutis

(Listen to this blogpost as a podcast)

---

I saw a TED video of Enriquez, who is on track, the idea of "Homo Evolutis", however it stems from technological development and depends on bio-engineering.

The key phrase "a being that takes control of it's own evolution" is the next step for us. Agreed, however if it depends on expensive cyborg retrofits, it's restricted to a small number of people who can afford it. So the argument fails, since it is not universal.

Awakening of the opening of human chakras (energy centers) is the measure of evolution in eastern thought. With the awakening of the kundalini one is no longer dependent on forces of nature for evolution - rather one's own desire drives it through opening of new layers of their chakras. This change is universal, as witnessed by hundreds of thousands of people all over the world practicing Sahaja Yoga in every country. Cultures, countries and continents have been bridged and provided with a universal experience of accelerated self-improvement. Personality and human development can take ages, and the evolution of many births has happened in one swift action. through Sahaja.

Welcome to the new world, fellow Evolutes.

Ascent, Interrupted

A flower, made an attempt

To grow in rough tenements,

To fulfill, pure desire

To love & live the Kundalini fire

The flower broke from being a bud

Petals opening the green shield

To expose itself to wonderous nature

To source joy and sometimes heal

It's destiny was to blossom

Fully and firmly until the Autumn

But that was not to be

As a bull entered the garden, and the flower's destiny

Blinded by ignorance, and baser purpose

The Bull raged in, forcing itself upon us

Trampling new buds, weeds and flowers together

Bringing mayhem, while serving own purpose

The hooves advance, to the rose bed,

Trampling dreams with fury unsaid,

ignorant, huffing and all self-serving

The bull raged on with actions unnerving

Such is the destiny, of many who blossomed,

Killed and miamed by ignorant possums

Given a chance to breathe on earth

Given the chance to come to second birth

Ravaging bulls and critters around,

Seek to impose, enforce and surround,

Their antiquated ideas, is the security they found

When their own life was run aground

Unevolved, disconnected bearing meaningless crosses,

They find no meaning in the living process,

Jealous, Angry, Greedy and Loathe-some,

Trampling blossoms, glorifying their awesome

Mother of the world, 

take one more look,

You gave them love,

Now they're making a book

Your message of love,

Revived even the dead,

But some new life bearers, 

Are shooting others dead.

Learn: The Nature of the Spirit

The Truth is Young

It's so difficult to see

The cruel ways of World.

The Truth is always Young, but we

Are getting bitter and old.

We are growing older every day

More serious and sad,

Our paper boat sailed away

And all the joy is dead.

Come on, lets run across the Time

Like waves that cross the sea.

Else all the mysteries Divine

We'll never ever see.

The Truth will win! It's always right!

It'll wait, and then one day

With all the Powers at its side

It'll crush the evil ways!

And all the dreams that shined so far

Will come to Earth that day

And every kid will get a Star,

A merry Star to play!

It’s time to join in Sahaja

Oh, did you hear that Song of Joy

That bells of Nature ring?

The time is knocking at your doors

So come and meet the Spring!

Its time to bathe in stream of Truth

To wash all ills away

It’s time to join Sahaja Yog

And find your true way!

Just open your windows and doors

To gentle rays of sun

And open your heart to Love of God

And see what should be done.

Enjoy the blessings of Divine

To fill your every day

Once you will join Sahaja Yoga

And find your true way!

The River of God's Will (translation from Russian)

-----------------------------

The River of God's Will,

The Giver of all boons,

To which fantastic times

This Holy River goes?

From heart of silver bells

The sacred sounds flows

And enters into sky

A Prayer like a Moon.

This World is so huge -

We could not see by sight

We could not grasp with thought,

With scale we failed to measure.

And only we could sense

Our own inner treasure

To live and to believe

In a very simple way.

Oh, River of God's Will,

Please don't hide yourself,

In the showers of sunrays,

In the heavens blue and pure.

Your children humbly pray

Please take us along for sure

We wish to be small drops

In Your Eternal Self.

-- Alla Levitan

The Temple Of Jerusalem

Why Fight For Shrines ?

It was in times of Solomon

The king of golden land

Who held the truth inside his heart

And love in ruling hand.

Caressed by sun and washed by rain

On map of ancient world

Like diamond shined Jerusalem

In caring hands of God.

And Solomon sang Praise to God

Who blessed his Fatherland

Whose gentle Love is such a force

That nothing can withstand

And then he said: -This whole wide world

Just by Your Grace is run,

I want to build a Temple for You,

As beautiful as the sun!"

-"Yes, you can build it", answered God -

"But one should know well,

That in the stones I dwell not,

But in the hearts I dwell

And if you walk the rightful ways

And rule with Truth and Love , -

You are my Temple, Solomon,

And is it not enough?"

... But many days had fallen through

Like sand through open hands

And many beautiful temples were build

In our homelands

But what was build for sake of love

That now hate destroys

And people fight for temples and lands

Like children fight for toys!

What was in times of Solomon

Has long time come to end

And now Age of Truth is here

And one should understand

Why fight for shrines of older days

The world of Past is dead!

It’s time to build the Temple of God

Within our hearts instead!

The quicksands

You look above you high -

Your sight is lost in sky,

You see beneath your feet

All green and lovely land

But further you should see

Where land is meeting sea:

They shine with blinding light -

The dangerous quicksands

Choose your way, stay away

Once you step into that

Mass of sand closes in

Over top of your head

Choose your way, go around

Forewarn can be seen

There are steps coming in

And no steps going out!

No way out!

Sometimes the way of wrong

Seems powerful and strong

And shield of Inner Truth

Feels heavy in your hands

But stick to rightful way,

And never step astray

Because the way of wrong

Leads straight into quicksands

Choose your way, stay away

Once you step into that

Mass of sand closes in

Over top of your head

Choose your way, go around

Forewarn can be seen

There are steps coming in

And no steps going out!

No way out!

Kundalini song

Behold the thread of Life

That guides the boat of soul

Through shallow stream of Time

To Ocean of Joy

The Truth that always wins

The Love that never binds

And gently gives us choice

To grow and enjoy

Our bodies, our minds

Are only shell of Maya

All dreams of mortal world

Will fade away like dust

But what we hold inside

Is our pure desire

The only real wish

To follow and trust -

Oh, Kundalini Ma,

We want to be the flow

Of Your Eternal Bliss,

The living breath of Thine,

From seed to mighty tree

Inside of us You grow

And take the spring of self

To the Ocean of Divine!

The ancient face of Time

Is changing its expression

As shadows and light

Create the day and night,

But sacred and untouched

You dwell in each creation

You are the Love of God

Revealed from inside.

We have a rare chance

In dawn of Golden Era

To feel Your rising shine

That shows us the way

So now to save the world

We all must come together

And at Your Lotus Feet

Inside of our hearts we pray -

Oh, Kundalini Ma,

We want to be the flow

Of Your Eternal Bliss,

The living breath of Thine,

From seed to mighty tree

Inside of us You grow

And take the spring of self

To the Ocean of Divine!

To a seeker

In morning light when stars are pale

You long to leave the nest

And then your journey sets the sail

For your eternal quest

Across the seas and mountain heights

So many roads go

But only one that reaches the Truth

Resides inside of you.

In rainy days you see the drops

But cannot see the way;

In piles of books you read the words

But meaning slips away

Across the seas and mountain heights

So many roads go

But only one that reaches the Truth

Resides inside of you.

In sea of Love the Time is still

And waves of spirit shine

And in the depth of heart you feel

The presence of Divine

Across the seas and mountain heights

So many roads go

But only one that reaches the Truth

Resides inside of you.

The Call of Love

Feel the call of Love within your soul

Walk across the world in each direction

Try to bring the peace to every home

And to turn into friends the fighting nations

Once you melt your heart in Joy of Spirit

Then in any land you’ll always find:

People are so caring, nice and friendly,

And the earth is generous and kind!

Chorus:

Believe your heart, believe your soul -

The Truth is one, the World is whole!

God’s Grace is beyond the creed and race,

God’s Love wants the whole World embrace:

On your palms feel the cool breeze:

It is thine, this gift of Divine!

Repeat:

Believe your heart, believe your soul -

The Truth is one, the World is whole!

My friend, all the wars will come to end

My friend, Truth and Love will always stand:

On your palms feel the cool breeze:

It is thine, this gift of Divine!

When the whole world will come together,

When the whole earth will get united,

Sea and Sky will memorize forever

Laugher and Joy of brothers reunited.

In the light of self-realization

From within the righteousness we’ll know

And completely new civilization

On the shores of Mother Earth will grow.

Chorus:

Believe your heart, believe your soul -

The Truth is one, the World is whole!

God’s Grace is beyond the creed and race,

God’s Love wants the whole World embrace:

On your palms feel the cool breeze:

It is thine, this gift of Divine!

Repeat:

Believe your heart, believe your soul -

The Truth is one, the World is whole!

My friend, all the wars will come to end

My friend, Truth and Love will always stand:

On your palms feel the cool breeze:

It is thine, this gift of Divine!

The Inner Guide

From job to job and from place to place

Something keeps you moving in life,

The life for you is an endless race

And for better always you strive.

A beast has a forest, a fish has a sea,

And a bird has the bottomless sky

But what makes you wander? what prompts you to seek

Hidden quest you cannot satisfy?

Within you it always was

Bright like the sun

And gentle like the rain

From depth of heart

It sweetly calls:

Chase for the truth

That you can attain!

But how to find it? where to start?

The directions are tricky to guess:

The ancient writings have fallen apart

And the paths have been lost in the grass...

And leaving at peace all confusion of Past

You are blazing your own trail anew

For there is a guide you rely on and trust

Very loving and loyal to you:

Within you it always was

Bright like the sun

And gentle like the rain

From depth of heart

It sweetly calls:

Chase for the truth

That you can attain!

The Wish of Truth

The wish of Truth inside us burns

And mind is tortured by

Ten thousands why

Unsure what to do and what to try

For spiritual thirst.

The thunderstorms of thoughts books are pouring from above

But we don’t care for words, we ask for Love:

Within our inner shrine there is a thirst for Pure Love...

If in the City of Joy you have lost your way

Busy life is making you to live your days away

And your mind just seems to you like a maze of highways

That lead nowhere,

Don’t leave the Hope, call for Mother, take Her hand

Your every beat of heart She understands

And never ends the presence of Her Love.

The Flowers

There are places troubled and poor in the whole wide world

People cry for our help but nobody would like to go

And only suddenly fair like a message of God

Among those poor grounds beautiful flowers grow:

Flowers don’t know the bad and good

Comforts and prestige they don’t know

They grow in every country, in every neighborhood

On stones and on sands the Flowers grow.

People like to create and compare brands

And according to taste they make divisions

And so they turned the earth into separate lands

And so they turned the truth into separate religions

But Flowers don’t know the bad and good,

Comforts and prestige they don’t know,

They grow in every country, in every neighborhood

On stones and on sands the Flowers grow.

And if we go all out and listen to our hearts

We’ll see that each person around is our sister or brother

We will feel that the earth is the whole and we’re only a part

And so we will not judge, but we will love each other

For Flowers don’t know the bad and good,

Comforts and prestige they don’t know,

They grow in every country, in every neighborhood

And lets wish that in our hearts these Flowers grow.

Home is Where the Heart Is.... at Peace

Photo: oasis by mands on flickr

A yogi guest mentioned how, over the past few weeks, he feels that the meditation area in our apartment is an oasis. A place for the vibrationally weary to put down their baggage of thoughts and drink from the fountain of vibrations. Little did he realize that he was a part of the reason why the oasis developed in the first place. His frequent visits keep us on track with meditation and self-purification activities. However, being there all the time, I was unable to appreciate his observation at the time.

After returning from a couple nights out of town, I came back and sat for meditation, expecting an uphill and long period of balancing before hitting a good meditative state. Contrary to expectations I experienced his experience: The instant oasis, which swept up the spirit and washed away the fatigue in a second.

Meditation is one of the most abstract and innate experiences, which is farthest from any mechanical activity. More like an art, it depends on how well you are placed towards yourself in the moment. Meditation melds us with the elements we come from, hence a well defined meditation space is not just a marker in our homes, but provides the required connection with the elements through it's pure energy and tokens of elements. The meditation area, with it's alter and the image of the preceptor provide this divine mix that puts the heart at peace instantly. Truely, home is where the heart is... at peace.
