Opening the Self to Cosmic Energy

Cosmic energy is not something distant or abstract - it is the very essence of existence. It flows through every atom, every breath, every moment. Yet most of us live disconnected from this source, caught in the noise of the mind and the demands of the world. To open the Self to cosmic energy is to return to our natural state - alert, alive, and fully in the present moment.

In Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, Swami Shivkrupanandji teaches that cosmic energy is always available. It is not limited by time, space, or effort. But to receive it, we must be open. And openness begins with complete unconditional surrender - not to a concept, but to the living presence of the Satguru.

When we sit in meditation, we are not trying to create energy - we are aligning with it. The practice of Samarpan is simple yet profound. We place our chitta (subtle consciousness) on the sahastrar, the crown chakra, and surrender to the Guru’s energy. In that surrender, the cosmic flow begins.

This energy is not just spiritual - it is deeply practical. It awakens the body, sharpens the mind, and expands the heart. We become more aware of our surroundings, more sensitive to others, and more attuned to the present moment. The fog of distraction lifts, and clarity emerges.

Cosmic energy is intelligent. It knows where to go, what to heal, and how to guide. When we open ourselves to it, we don’t need to plan or push. We simply receive. And in that receiving, transformation happens - not through effort, but through grace.

Swamiji reminds us that the Self is like a satellite dish. If it is misaligned, it cannot receive the signal. But when it is tuned correctly - through meditation and surrender - it begins to receive cosmic transmissions. These are not just thoughts or insights - they are vibrations of truth, peace, and purpose.

The more we meditate, the more this connection deepens. The chitta becomes purified, the mind becomes quiet, and the soul begins to shine. We start living from the centre, not the surface. We stop reacting and start responding with full awareness. We stop rushing and start flowing.

Opening to cosmic energy also means letting go of resistance. The ego wants control, certainty, and recognition. But the soul seeks connection, surrender, and silence. When we let go of the need to understand everything, we begin to experience everything.

This energy is not reserved for saints or sages - it is available to all. The only requirement is sincerity. When we sit with a pure heart, even for a few minutes, the cosmic energy begins to flow. It doesn’t matter where we are or what we know. What matters is our willingness to receive.

So, sit and inhale deeply, gently with complete surrender. Place your chitta on the sahastrar and let the Satguru’s energy flow. Let the mind dissolve. Let the soul rise. And in that rising, feel the cosmic embrace.

You will not just feel peaceful - you will feel alive. You will not just feel calm - you will feel connected. You will not just meditate - you will merge with universal consciousness.

The Seven Bodies

Image
  The Seven Bodies Swamiji in his discourses has spoken about the awakening of the Kundalini and the seven bodies in brief in his discourses. Here we will try and examine what these bodies are. The first body is the Physical Body – this body is also known as the Sthul sharir – we are all aware of the physical body and most of us do not progress beyond this level in our spiritual journey. This develops in the first seven years after birth. The progress starts once a living Guru plants the seed of self-realisation within you. In the next seven years from ages 7 to 14 one develops the second subtle body which is the Etheric Body or the bhava sharir. Here, the emotional development and maturity takes place. Sexual maturity which is the most wanton of emotions is developed by the age of fourteen. Some people’s growth stops here and they cannot progress beyond this stage at all and get stuck with the physical and etheric bodies. After this is the Astral Body or the sukshma shari...

  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...

Judging Others

  Photo Credit: Pinterest Judging Others Why do we judge people? Sometimes our opinion is formed even before having been introduced to a person. After spending several years on the spiritual path, we develop a sixth sense, we think we understand energy, and based on that we again judge people and slot them as ‘good’ or ‘bad.’ We do not have to stop judging people, we need to understand why and how we judge people. We can only judge that which is visible – like the behaviour of a person, because only the behaviour is available to form an opinion. We do not actually ‘know’ the person, we do not know the reason for his /her behaviour and despite that we go ahead and judge that person. It is alright to judge the act, but not the person. Sometimes it could so happen that a person is always smiling and laughing and being jovial, but deep down he/she may be sad and is just putting on a show to avoid passing on his wounds to everybody. Maybe he/she is smiling on the surface and cryin...
