One Cannot be Anyone Else

Image
  Photo Credit: in.pinterest.com One Cannot be Anyone Else In life’s journey, many people spend their energy trying to become someone else. We compare ourselves, imitate others, and measure our worth against external standards. Yet the truth is simple and profound: one cannot be anyone else. Each soul is unique, carrying its own fragrance, its own rhythm, its own destiny. In Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, this uniqueness is not only acknowledged but celebrated, for it is through connection with the Satguru that we discover our true Self. The Satguru does not ask us to become like him in outer form. He does not demand imitation of his personality or actions. Instead, he guides us inward, toward the essence of who we truly are. Through meditation, when we surrender the chitta at the sahastrar, the Guru-energies flow into us. This flow does not erase individuality - it awakens authenticity. It helps us become one with our own Self, not someone else’s reflection. Swami Shivkrupanan...

Paramatma can be Experienced and not Seen

Image
  Photo Credit: Pinterest Paramatma can be Experienced and not Seen Human beings have always longed to know the ultimate truth, the eternal presence that sustains all existence. This truth is called Paramatma - the Supreme Self, the boundless consciousness beyond form and limitation. Yet, Paramatma cannot be seen with the eyes, nor grasped by the intellect. It can only be experienced. In Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, this experience is made possible through complete, unconditional surrender to the Satguru, who becomes the living bridge between the sadhak and the infinite. The eyes can only perceive form, and the mind can only grasp concepts. But Paramatma is formless, beyond all categories of thought. To seek Paramatma through sight or reasoning is to miss its essence. It is like trying to capture the wind in the palm of your hand. The wind can be felt, but not held. Similarly, Paramatma can be experienced in silence, but never seen as an object. Swami Shivkrupanandji teaches ...

Samarpan Meditation is Transference of Values from the Satguru

Image
  Photo Credit: SSSF Samarpan Meditation is Transference of Values from the Satguru Meditation is often understood as a practice of calming the mind or finding inner peace. But in Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, meditation is far deeper - it is the living transference of values from the Satguru to the disciple. It is not simply a technique; it is a sacred flow of consciousness, a transmission of soul qualities that awaken the seeker to their true Self. Swami Shivkrupanandji explains that the Satguru is not merely a teacher of words, but the embodiment of values - silence, surrender, compassion, humility, and truth. In Samarpan Meditation, when a seeker sits with a pure heart and surrenders the chitta at the sahastrar, the Guru Tattva begins to flow. This flow is not intellectual knowledge, but subtle energy. It carries the essence of the Satguru’s values, silently transferring them into the seeker’s consciousness. This transference is what makes Samarpan unique. The disciple doe...

Why Work is Important

Image
  Photo Credit: Pinterest Why Work is Important Work is often misunderstood as a burden, something we must do to survive or to fulfil worldly obligations. Yet in the light of Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, work is seen as a sacred opportunity, a field where meditation flows into life and awareness takes form in action. Swami Shivkrupanandji reminds us that meditation is not meant to remain confined to the cushion. It must permeate every aspect of our existence, and work is one of the most powerful arenas where this integration can be experienced. When we meditate, the chitta becomes purified, calm, and receptive. Carrying this state into our work transforms the way we act. Instead of being driven by restlessness or ego, we begin to act from silence. Work ceases to be a struggle for achievement or recognition and becomes an expression of presence. Each task, no matter how small, is infused with awareness. In this way, work itself becomes worship, a living offering to the Guru-elem...

Breaking the Invisible Chains

Image
  Photo Credit: Quotefancy Breaking the Invisible Chains In the deep well of our inner consciousness, many of us live as prisoners without realising it. We believe we are free agents making conscious choices, yet if we pause and observe, we find we are often driven by invisible forces. These are our compulsions - the automatic patterns of thinking, feeling, and reacting that dictate our daily lives. When we speak of compulsions, the mind often jumps to obvious addictions like substances or gambling. However, the deepest compulsions are subtler and more pervasive. It is the compulsion to worry incessantly, the compulsive need for approval, the automatic reaction of anger when things don't go our way, or the endless loop of desiring what we don’t have. These are the mental grooves worn deep into our psyche over lifetimes, known in yogic philosophy as deep-seated sanskaras (impressions). We are held hostage by our own minds. Modern society tells us to fight these habits with wi...

Cultivating Awareness through Guru’s Grace

Image
  Photo Credit: Siddha Yoga Cultivating Awareness through Guru’s Grace Cultivating awareness through the grace of a living Satguru is the heart of Himalayan Samarpan Meditation, and this path becomes luminous when guided by Satguru Swami Shivkrupanandji. Awareness, in this tradition, is not cultivated through strain or intellectual effort, but through a gentle inner surrender that allows the Satguru’s subtle energy to awaken what already lies within. Swamiji often explains that the purest form of awareness is our natural state, yet the mind’s restlessness and life’s conditioning cover it like clouds veil the sun. When a seeker turns toward the Guru with openness and trust, those coverings begin to fall away, revealing the quiet brilliance of the soul. Practising Samarpan Meditation is itself an act of tuning into the Satguru’s vibration. Whether one sits before Swamiji physically or simply remembers him inwardly, something shifts. Sometimes it is a soft calmness, sometimes a su...

Full Moon Meditation in Collectivity

Image
  The Heart Centred Being Full Moon Meditation in Collectivity The full moon has always held a special place in spiritual traditions. Its radiant presence illuminates the night sky, symbolising completeness, clarity, and expansion. In Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, the full moon is not merely a celestial event - it is a powerful opportunity to connect with cosmic energy in collectivity. When seekers gather to meditate under the full moon, they tap into a unique source of lunar energy that nourishes the soul and deepens awareness. Swami Shivkrupanandji emphasises that meditation is magnified in collectivity. Just as a single lamp lights a room, but many lamps together create brilliance, collective meditation amplifies the subtle vibrations of silence. The full moon adds another dimension to this experience. Its energy is cooling, calming, and expansive. It harmonises the mind, balances emotions, and opens the heart to surrender. Why is lunar energy so significant? The moon gov...
