SOME PERSONAL EXPERIENCES OF APPLIED SPIRITUALITY

• Rajyoga Meditation My first experience in
  July,1980
• The experience was so profound that I have been
  researching with its varied applications ever
  since

9
THE BACKGROUND - 1

• I was working as Veterinary Officer in CCBF,
  Suratgarh, Rajasthan
• Due to personality clash between myself and the
  Director, an atmosphere of tension, confrontation
  and strife between Rajasthani and non-Rajasthani
  staff emerged
• About 300 people living in the premises of the
  farm experienced the effect of tension and strife
  except one brother, Mr. Modi,, J.E.., CPWD.

10
THE BACKGROUND -2

• One day I asked Mr. Modi about the secret of his
  not being affected by the tension around
• He then invited me to his quarter where he
  introduced me to the Brahma Kumaris spiritual
  knowledge by explaining three pictures on the
  soul, the Supreme Soul and the three worlds

11
APPLICATION OF THE SPIRITUAL KNOWLEDGE

• Mr. Modi guided me to meditate in Amritvela
  based on the three pictures explained in the
  previous evening
• I could experience real mental peace from the
  Ocean of Peace, God Shiva real spiritual love
  from the Ocean of Love, and power from the
  Almighty

12
FURTHER APPLICATION OF SPIRITUAL POWER GAINED
THROUGH RAJYOGA

• Using the will-power gained through meditation I
  could overcome addiction to caffeine (tea) for
  ever, just after a week
• Sleeping pills discarded after two days
• Gained relief from hyper-acidity and dyspepsia

13
INCREASE IN TOLERANCE POWER

• With the correct understanding of the eternal
  world drama I developed faith in its benevolence,
  and this increased my power to tolerate adverse
  circumstances
• When I stopped retorting, the director lost
  interest in troubling me, and gradually the
  atmosphere of strife and confrontation vanished

14
APPLICATION OF THREE POINTS

• 1. Soul - the point source of spiritual energy -
  the battery with 7 cells that store the spiritual
  energy of 7basic attributes
• 2. Supreme Soul The eternal power house or
  generator of the basic attributes or spiritual
  energies
• 3. The full-stop What happened is as per the
  benevolent world drama and hence is in my favour
  even if I dont understand it right now
• These three points help me to keep my
  self-esteems and soul-consciousness

15
WORLD TRASFORMATION THROUGH SELF-TRASFORMATION

• Based on spiritual knowledge and experience, I am
  able to maintain soul-consciousness
• Subtle powers of the spiritual vibrations have
  the potential to change mind, matter and the
  environment
• This interconnection at macro level is shown in
  the next slide

INTERCONNECTION at MACRO LEVEL
17
STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS
18
INNER REALITY THE STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS

• In the fore going picture we found how the mind
  and intellect is in continuous interaction with
  the sanskara
• When the original or basic attributes of the soul
  is in emerged form within the sanskara those
  subtle vibrations will allow the divine virtues
  and powers to emerge in our thoughts, desires and
  decisions
• When divine virtues and powers are filled in the
  sanskara, mind and intellect we transform
  ourselves from human being to divine being or a
  deity.
• It leads to the re-establishment of the
  value-based society called paradise.

19
RAJYOGA MEDITATION EXPERIENCING SWEETNESS OF
DIFFERENT RELATIONS WITH GOD

• As Supreme Teacher God Shiva imparts spiritual
  knowledge
• As S. Mother God gives me peace
• As S. Consort God gives me love
• As S. Companion God gives me joy
• As S. Preceptor God gives me purity
• As S. Father God gives me power (might)
• As S. Child God gives me bliss

20
RAJYOGA MEDITATION -THE FOUR STEPS

• VISUALIZTION
• of the soul, Supreme Soul, basic attributes,
  relations
• PERCEPTION
• experiencing each attribute , sweetness of
  different relations with God
• RECEPTION
• filling each attribute within the soul-battery
• DISTRIBUTION
• Sharing the attributes with other souls in the
  world

21
HEALING MEDITATION

• Spiritual energy of God when aligned with
  physical energy of the elements of the body the
  latter gets purified, empowered and activated
• These purified and empowered elements function
  optimally and then diseases caused by their
  malfunction disappear
• The purification of the elements of the body
  results in the purification of the elements of
  the entire universe leading to the establishment
  of paradise, the world of truth and purity
