The greatest adventure that is the creation of all life.

 


Shiva Mahadev is the epitome of Stillness, Master Dhyani, and yet, in the stillness comes the flight: The greatest adventure that is the creation of all life.
Aum Namah Shivaye.

Father, you can be perfect when you want, and yet it is your playful nature, to just play along.

 


Father, you can be perfect when you want,
and yet it is your playful nature, to just play along.
But then
when the spoilers join the run,
you must sometime
spill over the catchment of Primal Oneness,
and make way, make way!
AUM, Namah Shivaye.

GOOD NEWS

 


GOOD NEWS
God is always Good news for the good guys,
bad for the bad!
but He leaves the choice to us.

Dear friends,
There are times when we want to be able to talk about our deeper thoughts on life, without the fear of being misunderstood.
Times when we feel ‘stuck’ at a particular station, as if the train is not moving on.
At times like these, we all wish there was a shorter and happier way to the next peak of our own attainment.
And, there is a way. There is method. Traditionally, it is called Shiva upaya, the method of Shiva for spiritual awakening.
Shivopaya helps one to understand the play of Karma and the collective past, it makes you re-cognise your own divinity, and leads you into a progressive future, from the present moment.
Shivopaya is Universal, just like Yoga. Just like anyone can do Yoga, anyone can move to Shivopaya for their spiritual awakening.
Learning it from Shiva Himself, the ancient Kashmiri Rishis, were great adepts at both the spiritual and material life. They understood that by Chintan (creative contemplation)
and some methods of affirmative visualization, one could re-direct the current way of living only the material life, into a great synergy with spiritual life; And therefore we can transport ourselves from world we currently live in, to the heaven we dream of.
After having embarked on my spiritual journey thirty years ago, having learnt with gratitude from all of mankind’s collective spiritual heritage, I felt the need to make the process of spiritual learning simpler for others, in an uncomplicated language, and to provide a platform to be able to talk to each other, like we usually do, when we ask a friend for advice!
Keeping this goal in mind, we have made available the online guidance session platform for exclusive 'one to one' talks. The aim of a session is to assess your ' Spiritual quotient', and give some tips from the distilled wisdom of Shivopaya, on how to strengthen it. For further details, message Admin inbox.

SRISTI TANDAV
Science says the beginning of the Universe, is by a rhythmic burst of primal energy in play with dark matter.
Shaivites agree. " It is our Goddess Shakti, in play with Shiva, rousing Him out of the Tamas of the previous cosmic night, and dance it into manifestation once again."

THEN TIE HIM IN THE KNOT OF LOVE

 


THEN TIE HIM IN THE KNOT OF LOVE
Then tie Him in the knot of love
this God who remains forever aloof!
never here , nor there, nor below nor above.
Tie Him in the knot of love,
so He shall know
the beating of the heart of life
This mad rush of joy, He Himself made
in the timeless day
and then
absented from the play.
Just tie him in the knot of love!
to 'Her', all the Devatas pray.
~ From the book ' Shiva poetry ' by Shail Gulhati

ALL THAT YOU LOOK FOR

 


ALL THAT YOU LOOK FOR
The Peace you seek
the Joy
the Love
the Harmony
the Knowledge
the Godliness
are all within you.
Within you, is the greatest treasure of life
within you is the link to the generator of life itself
seated as your Atma
in deep communion with Paramatma,
waiting to be known,
as all that you have always looked for.
Aum Namah Shivaye.

He is the mightiest warrior, yet gentlest soul, He is Bhootnath, He is Bholanath, He, is Shiva Mahadev.

WITH SHIVA

WITH SHIVA
You may have heard of 'Neti neti', which is the spiritual training of rejecting every material thing as ' not this, not that' .
This is a way taught by saints to ignore the world of Maya, so that we may carry on a spiritual journey till we have Self realisation, or meet God.
But once you have that meeting, something really beautiful happens : Suddenly everything changes to 'Tatha asthu, Tatha asthu ' with Shiva's benificent smile, which means ' So be it so be it,'
Let all be true, let all be happy.
Therefore, the supreme bhakt does not reject the world as Maya, but thinks of it as a beautiful expression of God Himself.
Moksha for a Shaivite is not ' Release from the circle of birth and death' but, being with Shiva, wherever He wishes us to be.

SHIVA- LORD OF THE STONE THRONE LOVES HIS GANAS AS FRIENDS

 


SHIVA- LORD OF THE STONE THRONE LOVES HIS GANAS AS FRIENDS
Shiva, was the most powerful God, but He was always very humble, a Bhola Nath. He sat on a stone throne in the snowy Himalayas, from where He taught his Ganas spirituality. He was the Lord of Tantra, a unique system of weaving together God’s vision of science and Goddess's art of manifestation. He often taught them the tantra, saying, “All of science is merely a notation of God’s art. From the beginning of time! Just like a musician plays his music from a notation, so too, whatever the scientific man discovers, has in fact, already been artistically painted by Mother Nature into the world.”

SHIVA'S WAY

 


SHIVA'S WAY
Good morning Shiv bhakts! Here is a passage from Shail Gulhati's first book, describing the beauty of Shiva as Adi Guru, blessing us all.
Meditate, receive the Gyan Ganga upon your head.
Stabilize the impact.Then, trickle it down gently for the others,so that they too may quench their thirst. If you have it, give it freely.
This is simply said, but not so simple to implement.
Ganga resides in the Heavens, seated at the feet of Vishnu. Therefore when She comes 'down to earth', she is torrentially full with Divine knowledge, Gyan.
There is a very thin line between intelligence and Insanity.
Divine Consciousness means a very high intelligence, hitherto, unknown, to the new seeker. So it cannot be given so freely that it leads to insanity, thus we say trickle it.
Thus we sometimes see that even the sages fortress their knowledge, thus we sometimes hear that the wise do not speak of the way.
But still, we have to give it freely, another paradox!
This is a great energy system, akin to a tightrope. If you go too fast, you fall; go too slow, you will fall again.
The Guru is called the dispeller of darkness, like the Sun. The Sun enables us to see, but if we look to it directly, we lose our sight, we go blind, darkness again.
Therefore Shiva,The primal Guru, in His kindness, chooses a pace, known only to Him. He meditates, and receives the Ganga upon His head. He first makes Himself a landing pad, stabilises the impact, and then , He trickles it down gently for all of us.
Aum Namah Shivaye.

AND IF YOU DO MEET GOD...

 


AND IF YOU DO MEET GOD...
And if you do meet God, what will you ask for?
why not ask for God Himself ?
That way you will get everything that you can ever think of.
~ From the book of short spiritual quotes by Shail Gulhati: Shiva and Mysticism. 'And life said'

The great Indian monk, Swami Vivekananda who hailed from an aristocratic family somehow came upon adverse times and wanted to ask Ma Durga to alleviate him from his impoverishment. At that time , he was as yet the spiritually inexperienced Narendra.
His Guru, the Paramhansa Ramakrishna said , very well, i shall arrange for you to "See" her, don't forget to ask for all the money you need. So saying, he touched Narendra with his toe, and which reportedly sent the young fellow into a trance. Then he told him to visit her temple. On September 16, 1884, Naren went to pray at the Kali temple in Dakshineshwar. He paid his respects to the idol of Kali and prayed to her for knowledge and devotion.
When he came out of it, the Paramhansa asked did you see her?
Yes , replied Naren.
Good ! So did you ask for the money?
i couldn't replied Naren, She was so magnificent, i was speechless.
Well then, try again tomorrow said the Guru.
This went on for quite a few times.
Finally Naren said that he now understood what it was that one should ask from God, should he be lucky enough to have a darsana ( vision) , and that was to be in the company of God Herself.
And that is how he lived the rest of His life: In the company of God Herself, as Vivekananda.
Aum Namah Shivaya! Jai Durge Ma!
