Opening the Self to Cosmic Energy

Image
  Photo Credit: Pinterest 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 ener...

Brahma Muhurat and Its Significance

Image
  Photo Credit: The Divine India Brahma Muhurat and Its Significance In the stillness before dawn, when the world is wrapped in silence and the stars begin to fade, a sacred window opens - Brahma Muhurat. This time, roughly 1.5 hours before sunrise, is revered across spiritual traditions as the most auspicious period for meditation, prayer, and inner awakening. In Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, Brahma Muhurat is not just a time - it is a doorway. A doorway into the Self. Swami Shivkrupanandji emphasises that this period holds a unique vibrational frequency. The atmosphere is charged with sattva, the quality of purity, clarity, and subtlety. Nature is at rest, the mind is quiet, and the soul is more receptive – there is no thought pollution! Why is this time so powerful? Because the external world is silent, the inner world becomes more accessible. The distractions of the day - noise, responsibilities, digital clutter - have not yet begun. The chitta, or subtle consciousness, is natur...

Why Do Accidents Happen?

Image
  Photo Credit: Pinterest Why Do Accidents Happen? Accidents - whether physical, emotional, or circumstantial - often arrive uninvited, unexpected, and unsettling. They shake our sense of control and challenge our understanding of life. Why do they happen? Is it fate, karma, coincidence, or divine will? In the light of Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, accidents are not random events. They are part of a larger, subtler design - an interplay of karmic patterns, unconscious vibrations, and divine grace. Swami Shivkrupanandji teaches that nothing in the universe is truly accidental. Everything is connected, and every experience carries a message for the soul. From the perspective of the mind, accidents seem unfair. “Why me?” we ask. But from the perspective of the soul, they are opportunities - sometimes painful, sometimes humbling, but always purposeful. They can awaken us, redirect us, or dissolve our ego. They can bring us face-to-face with our own vulnerability, reminding us that...

What Remains When You Let Go

Image
  Photo Credit: in.pinterest.com What Remains When You Let Go Letting go is often seen as loss. We fear that if we release our attachments, identities, and expectations, we will be left with nothing. But in the path of Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, letting go is not emptiness — it is awakening. It is the sacred act of unconditionally and completely surrendering everything that is not truly us, so that what is eternal within can shine. Swami Shivkrupanandji teaches that the ego clings. It holds on to roles, possessions, opinions, and even pain. The mind, driven by fear and desire, builds stories around these attachments. We begin to believe that we are what we own, what we do, or what others think of us. But these are layers — temporary, shifting, and ultimately unreal. When we begin to meditate in the spirit of samarpan — total unconditional surrender to the Guru-energies, to the Guru-element — we start peeling away these layers. We are not trying to fix the mind or fight the ...

Perception, Mind and Existence

Image
  Photo Credit: Pinterest Perception, Mind and Existence Our experience of existence is shaped not by what is, but by how we perceive it. Perception is the lens through which the mind interprets reality. And the mind, in turn, is the canvas upon which our entire life unfolds. In Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, this triad — perception, mind, and existence — is not just philosophical, but deeply practical. Swami Shivkrupanandji teaches that the mind is not the enemy — it is a tool. But when perception is clouded by ego, fear, or conditioning, the mind becomes restless, reactive, and fragmented. We begin to see life through distorted filters, mistaking illusion for truth and reaction for wisdom. Existence itself is pure, silent, and whole. It is the substratum of all that is. But our perception often separates us from this wholeness. We divide, label, and judge. We live in the mind’s projections which is related to body consciousness, and not in soul consciousness. In Samarpan Dh...

Handling Life’s Uncertainty

Image
  Photo Credit: Pinterest Handling Life’s Uncertainty Uncertainty is an absolute fact of life, without which life would be considered dull. No matter how carefully we plan, life unfolds in ways we cannot predict. Situations change, relationships shift, health fluctuates, and outcomes often defy expectations. In such moments, the mind seeks control - but at the subtle level, the soul is always seeking total unconditional surrender. In Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, uncertainty is not seen as a threat, but as a doorway to deeper awareness. Swami Shivkrupanandji teaches that when we turn inward, we discover a centre that remains untouched by external chaos. This centre is the Self - silent, luminous, and stable. Meditation becomes the bridge between uncertainty and inner stability. When we sit in silence and surrender to the Guru-energies, we are not escaping life - we are entering its essence. The practice of Samarpan is not about controlling thoughts or fixing situations. It is ...

Every Experience in Life is a Matter of Perception

Image
  Photo Credit: Pinterest Every Experience in Life is a Matter of Perception Life unfolds not as it is, but as we perceive it. Every experience - joyful or painful, uplifting or challenging - is filtered through the lens of our perception. In Himalayan Samarpan Dhyanyog, this understanding is central to spiritual growth. Perception is not just a mental construct - it is the doorway through which reality is shaped and experienced. We often assume that what we see, feel, and interpret is the truth. But perception is coloured by our conditioning, past experiences, emotional states, and mental filters. Two people can go through the same situation and emerge with entirely different understandings. One may feel blessed, the other burdened. The difference lies not in the event, but in the perception. Swami Shivkrupanandji teaches that perception is the reflection of our inner state. When the mind is restless, even beauty feels chaotic. When the soul is awakened, even challenges feel...
