Being Neutral

When we learn to embrace our situations in life without swinging one way or the other, we can say that we are neutral. When we are neutral at the personal or at the patterned level of being or existing, we’re free to express as we are moved to express in this moment, in the here and now. We are no longer responding to this moment in a preconditioned, patterned manner. We are present in this moment; we are responding to this moment. Our response is fresh, alive, originating in this moment. We are present in the here and now.

Being neutral does not mean being neutral to life. It does not mean that we have to walk through life feeling nothing at all. It is actually quite the contrary. When we are neutral to our personal patterning, all the energy that was being utilised to maintain control of the self and others is freed up. Now we have access to an infinite supply of energy. We feel more deeply. Our perceptive abilities are clearer and we are able to know the truth and respond appropriately. We are fully present and able to attend to ‘what is’ present before us in this moment.

When our conditioned behavioural patterns are brought to neutral, we are no longer bothered by it. We have basically cleansed the inner conditioning and past impressions no longer matter as they have been neutralised. Thinking of such issues no longer evokes any kind of response – positive or negative. Our polarisation has disappeared. When the issue comes to mind and we think about it, it’s just neutral.

Now, when we come across a situation which used to trigger a response in us earlier, now it simply provides us with clear information. Now, we are free to express as we are now in this moment. We are free to make a choice that’s no longer influenced by our conditioned patterning. We are now completely free to open our innate knowing and know how to respond in a manner that’s appropriate for all those involved in the situation.

When we meditate and learn to be in the moment, we learn to embrace whatever situations we come across in life, we learn to bring them to neutral without colouring them as positive or negative. This also helps us become more conscious of what neutrality feels like, so that we are able to access this state at will, whenever we want to.

Mahashivratri - Har Har Mahadev!

  Mahashivratri - Har Har Mahadev! Tomorrow is Mahashivratri – the day Lord Shiva was united with Shakti. It is held on the 14 th night of the new moon in the month of Phalgun (onset of summer) as per the Hindu Calendar. In honour and as a mark of respect and devotion, Hindus fast for the full day and night of Mahashivratri. This is considered to be the darkest night of the year and it celebrates the grace of Lord Shiva who is said to be the Adi Guru or the first Guru from whom the tradition of Yoga originates. Mahashivratri is celebrated throughout the country in various Ashrams by all self-realised Saints in the presence of their devotees – either in the physical form or remotely – this year due to Corona pandemic, this festival will be mainly celebrated online. We, the Samarpan Family too will be celebrating this online through the live webcast on the GuruTattva YouTube channel. All the devotees wait eagerly for this day as the energy is literally palpable and, in my experi...

  GSD view from afar Heaven in the Heat - Rajasthan Samarpan Ashram   Visit to Rajasthan Samarpan Ashram   Our visit to Rajasthan Samarpan Ashram had been in the offing for quite a long time. I had called Umeshji sometime in the middle of April and asked whether we could give Aradka a visit. He said he would be free after the 26 th and so we planned accordingly. Umesh Paiji and I had decided to give a surprise inspection visit to the Rajasthan Samarpan Ashram as per the guidance given by His Holiness Swamiji in May 2023 during his discourse at Mahudi. Accordingly, we had booked flight tickets, airport to Ajmer hotel transfers – both to and fro. Our visit was from April 28 and return was scheduled for May 1 – both Gujarat and Maharashtra Day! On the 28 th we requested Swamiji’s office to inform the Rajasthan trustee and the Administrator of our impending visit and the purpose of the same. The office informed Dr Manoj Sharma and Mr. Sundeep Sharma about our visit ju...

Talking to your Body Mind

Photo Credit: Pinterest Talking to your Body Mind In the labyrinth of our existence, there exists an unspoken dialogue—a conversation between our body, mind, and spirit. This discourse, often overlooked amidst the cacophony of daily life, holds the key to unlocking our innermost truths and nurturing holistic well-being. To embark on this journey of self-discovery, we must first quiet the noise of the external world and turn our gaze inward. As we delve deeper into the recesses of our being, we encounter the subtle whispers of our body and mind, each conveying its unique wisdom and insight. Our body, a temple of sacred intelligence, communicates its needs and desires through sensations, feelings, and emotions. It speaks the language of sensations—aches, pains, and discomforts—as messengers urging us to pay attention and listen with compassion. Simultaneously, our mind, the orchestrator of our thoughts and perceptions, weaves a tapestry of stories and narratives that shape our reality. I...
