Guru is a principle, not a person

By on July 9, 2017   /   Life Solutions  

Tomorrow is Guru Poornima, it is a Vedic Festival that is celebrated as per the Hindu moon sign calendar to express reverence towards the Guru who is guiding humanity towards the ultimate goal of Enlightenment.

For most people who are too centered on logic, they cannot fathom why a person requires a Guru in his life, let alone having with a living Guru. Only a being, who experiences the heart and the depth of cognitions, will be able to taste the sweetness of a magical life with a living Guru.

What is Guru?

The true meaning of Guru is “one who dispels darkness of ignorance”. “Gu” means “darkness of ignorance” and “Ru” means “one who removes”. Fundamentally, Guru is not a person it is a principle (Guru tattva). The one who has no Guru above him is the true Guru. Guri here refers to the Atmic principle present in every human being. The real Guru who can reveal the Atmic principle is a Jnaanamurthy (embodiment of wisdom); He is the very embodiment of Divine principles; and He is one who takes upon Himself a form to teach the same to the disciples; he is God Himself. Another meaning of the word Guru is “one who is beyond attributes and forms”. Gu stands for Gunaatheetha – one who transcends the three Gunas (Satva, Rajas and Tamas); Ru stands for Rupavarjitha – one who is formless. The One who is beyond all attributes and forms is none other than the Supreme Self (the Brahmam) who resides in the heart within each of us. Only God can be regarded as One who is beyond attributes and forms.

Awaken women to their divinity

By on May 5, 2017   /   Life Solutions  

On this Labour Day, for the first time I conducted a workshop outside of Singapore on the topic, “Experience Your Divinity”. I had the fortune of sharing the sacred knowledge of Divine Feminine Consciousness with a group of beautiful women in Hong Kong.

How was this workshop conceived?

As some of you may be aware from my earlier articles, when my Guru, Paramahamsa Nithyananda (fondly known as Swamiji) spoke about Divine Feminine Consciousness in 2009, it hit me like a lightning bolt because something clicked within me very deeply.

Let me introduce the science of Mother Worship.

From the undisturbed existence of pure consciousness, a primal alteration happens – two inseparable yet distinct aspects of existence emerge. The two tattwas (principles) are the Siva Tattwa and Sakthi Tattwa. They are the beginning of cosmic evolution. Both aspects remain ever present, every prevalent and cannot exist without the other. They are also known as Purusha (cosmic spirit) and Prakrithi (the cosmic substance). Prakrithi, the cosmic substance is the divine feminine consciousness that is responsible for everything you see and experience. In each one of us, there is an energy which constantly gives birth. Anything you see and experience belongs to mother energy. Worshipping this energy is called the mother worship. Mother worship is unique to Vedic tradition, it is a gift to planet earth. All sacred things are looked upon as feminine in Vedic traditions. Expression is feminine energy, all other adjustments for this expression are masculine energy. The source of divine or creation is mother energy. Only mother energy can give liberation. Whenever mother energy is added to you, you experience enlightenment. Whenever Kundalini shakti (inner potential energy) is awakened in you, you experience a unique feminine mood/feeling i.e. you give birth to yourself. You become the cosmic mother – Devi.

Know Your Life Purpose

By on April 14, 2017   /   Life Solutions  

Do you know your life purpose?

During my coaching for the aspiring spiritual entrepreneurs, the first thing I work on them is to find out their life purpose! This is a very important process in the spiritual awakening which I had the fortune of being guided by my Guru, an enlightened Avatar, Paramahamsa Nithyananda (fondly known as Swamiji).

See, life purpose, also known as purpose of birth, is the reason you are born which can’t be changed. Those desires (samskaras) which you brought with you to fulfill in this life are called prarabdha karma. It carries its own energy for fulfillment which forms a part of your bio-memory.
