The Gap Between Two Thoughts is Meditation

Image
  Photo Credit: Evelyn Lim Coach The Gap Between Two Thoughts is Meditation The human mind is a restless instrument. It constantly produces thoughts - memories of the past, projections of the future, judgments, desires, and fears. This endless chatter creates noise that prevents us from experiencing the silence within. Yet, as Shivkrupanand Swamiji explains in the tradition of Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, meditation is not about fighting thoughts but about discovering the gap between them. That gap is pure silence, and in that silence lies bliss. When we sit in meditation, the first thing we notice is the mind’s chatter. Thoughts arise one after another, like waves on the ocean. At first, it seems impossible to stop them. But Swamiji teaches that the goal is not to suppress thoughts. Instead, we learn to watch them. As we observe without attachment, the flow of thoughts begins to slow. Between two thoughts, a gap appears - a space of stillness. This gap is meditation. It is t...

Just Being is our Nature

Image
  Photo Credit: in.pinterest.com Just Being is our Nature In the rush of daily life, we often forget the simplicity of existence. We identify ourselves with roles, responsibilities, and achievements, believing that life’s meaning lies in constant doing. Yet, as Shivkrupanand Swamiji explains in the tradition of Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, our true nature is not in doing but in being . To just be is the essence of the Self, and meditation is the path to rediscover this truth. The external world is filled with clutter—noise, desires, comparisons, and endless distractions. This clutter keeps the mind restless, preventing us from experiencing the silence within. The mind thrives on activity, but the soul thrives on stillness. When we learn to let go of external clutter through meditation, we begin to rest in the Self. In that resting, bliss naturally arises. Swamiji teaches that Samarpan Meditation is the practice of surrender. When the seeker sits in silence and surrenders the ...

Find Your Own Voice

  Photo Credit: Facebook Find Your Own Voice In the noise of the modern world, we often lose touch with the most important sound - the inner voice. Surrounded by external clutter, opinions, expectations, and distractions, we forget that within us lies a subtle, guiding presence. This voice is not loud, nor does it compete with the world’s noise. It is gentle, steady, and always present as an undercurrent. To hear it, we must first find silence. Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, as taught by Shivkrupanand Swamiji, offers a path to rediscover this inner voice. Through meditation, surrender, and steadfast practice, sadhaks learn to clear away the external clutter and tune into the subtle vibrations of the Self. The process is not about creating a new voice - it is about uncovering the one that has always been there, waiting patiently beneath the noise. Swamiji explains that the mind is restless because it is filled with external impressions. It constantly reacts to the world, chasing...

The Third Eye is not an Eye at All

Image
  Photo Credit: Psyog Space The Third Eye is not an Eye at All The concept of the “third eye” has fascinated seekers for centuries. Often imagined as a mystical organ of vision, it is popularly believed to grant supernatural sight or hidden powers. Yet, as Osho says, the third eye is not an eye at all. It is not about seeing visions or images - it is about transcending the ego and awakening to a deeper sensory illumination. The opening of the third eye happens only when the ego is completely dissolved. Ego is the veil that clouds perception, binding us to body-consciousness and the restless movements of the mind. As long as ego dominates, the third eye remains closed, because it is not a physical organ but a state of consciousness. When surrender is total, when the mind becomes blank and silent, the third eye opens - not to sight, but to sensing at the energy level. This opening is a natural outcome of Meditation and total and unconditional surrender to the Satguru. When the ...

Life’s Experience is Shaped from Within

Image
  Photo Credit: Facebook Life’s Experience is Shaped from Within Life often appears to be shaped by external circumstances - our environment, relationships, successes, and failures. Yet, as Shivkrupanand Swamiji explains in the tradition of Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, the true shaping of life’s experience happens from within. It is not the outer events that define us, but the inner state of consciousness through which we perceive and respond to them. When the mind dominates, life feels restless, fragmented, and reactive. The mind constantly compares, judges, and fears, creating experiences of stress and dissatisfaction. But when the soul awakens through meditation, life takes on a different quality. Experiences become peaceful, harmonious, and meaningful, because they are filtered through the clarity of soul-consciousness rather than the turbulence of the mind. Swamiji teaches that regular meditation is the key to this transformation. Meditation is not a one-time practice bu...

Compassion – not Kindness but an All-Inclusive Passion

Image
  Photo Credit: Instagram Compassion – not Kindness but an All-Inclusive Passion In everyday language, compassion is often equated with kindness. We think of it as a gentle act of helping someone in need or showing sympathy in times of suffering. Yet, in the light of Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, as explained by Shivkrupanand Swamiji, compassion is far more profound. It is not merely kindness - it is an all-inclusive passion, a force that encompasses life itself and transforms the way we relate to all beings, human and non-human alike. Kindness is situational. It arises when we see someone in difficulty and feel moved to help. Compassion, however, is not limited to situations. It is a state of being, a passion that flows continuously from the heart. Compassion does not wait for suffering to appear; it radiates naturally, touching everyone and everything around us. It is not selective - it embraces all beings, sentient and insentient, because it arises from the recognition of uni...

Without Love, Self-enquiry is Dry

Image
  Photo Credit: Instagram Without Love, Self-enquiry is Dry Self-enquiry is often described as the highest path to self-realisation. It is the process of turning inward, asking “Who am I?” and seeking the essence of the Self beyond body and mind. Yet, as Shivkrupanand Swamiji explains in the tradition of Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, self-enquiry without love is dry. Without devotion, compassion, and pure unconditional love for all beings - sentient and insentient - the enquiry becomes intellectual, lifeless, and incomplete. Love is the fragrance of the soul. It softens the hardness of the mind and opens the heart to surrender. When enquiry is pursued without love, it remains confined to the intellect. The mind analyses, questions, and debates, but the soul does not awaken. True self-enquiry must be infused with love, for love dissolves ego and connects us to the universal consciousness. Swamiji teaches that meditation is the living practice of self-enquiry. In Samarpan Dhyany...
