Now, what we can do is to, Philip,
what should I tell you the practical side,
the meditation. All right?
Let's see what this meditation is, what We have to do on a meditation.
The first thing we have got is the left side
is the Mana-Shakti, is the power of your emotions. All right?
Now, emotions are connected with your right side, also -- prana.
Say for example if you are emotionally disturbed,
just now we got disturbed,
so our shva, our breathing also increased
and we felt the whole body was sort of, say reacting
and the, we were feeling the reaction of the Prana, right side also.
That it was trying to express itself.
Like we started the tears, is the water-element
and all that came in and the whole emotion was so much pouring out
and with that our Prana was also involved.
Say for example if you are frightened,
if you are frightened
if you are frightened too much then what happens?
If you are frightened than also you get your breathing
very fast -- isn't it?
So it is connected.
So it is connected. If you are frightened it is connected
with your Prana, in your breathing
and your whole system is connected with your emotions, physical system.
If you cry too much, or if you weep too much, or if you are a sad person
that shows on your face, your Vishuddhi-Chakra also shows,
and not only Anahata but also Vishuddhi.
Then also your Agnya goes out.
So all the Chakras reflect the left side
in such a way that physical manifestation is also there.
So it proofs that both are very much connected.
So to, if you have to, somehow or other,
dissolve these two sides within us,
the left and the right side
because if you do not dissolve it, you are left half way here
so you have to dissolve these two things.
And to dissolve these, what should we do?
What can we do -- in meditation?
Can you suggest?
Say we have got Prana and Mana.
Now Prana represents the right side and the Mana-Shakti is the left side.
All right? These two have to be dissolved -- in the air, means dissolved.
Now how do we do it? To dissolve these two things,
they are connected with each other.
After realization, not before.
So before meditation we give ourselves a balance, all right?
This side is more, this side is less. At the time.
Supposing you are emotionally -- at that time -- disturbed,
then you put your right to the left.
If you are that time disturbed on the left side
I mean disturbed in that sense that if a left side is frozen,
then you raise your left side and give yourself a balance before meditation.
Now let us see, which side is less, first of all.
Put your hands like that.
Are you all right? Getting cool breeze? Getting it?
(Shri Mataji speaks to a little girl)
So once you have given yourself a balance
then the best thing is to pay attention to your emotions,
to Manas-Shakti. Watch them.
You can enlighten your emotions by thinking of your Mother. All right.
Just enlighten them.
Just She will solve the problem. Whatever are the problems in the Mana, all right?
So once you get connected with those emotions
and you start looking at them in your meditation
you will see these emotions are rising within you
and if you try to put these emotions on your Mother,
as they say at the Lotus-Feet of your Mother,
they will start also dissolving those emotions
and they'll become sort of -- ah -- expanded. Expanded, you see.
You will extern that in such a way that
you will feel you are in control, these emotions.
You are in control of them and by that controlling those emotions
your emotions -- which are expanded, enlightened -- are powerful.
And these emotions, when you feel that way,
then the cause of those emotions can be solved.
For example just now you got emotionally stirred up
because I talked about -- say -- these children.
Naturally, anybody would be.
Now when you are stirred up with that you put that problem
and those feelings that are rising in you,
that those waves of feelings that are coming at the Lotus-Feet of your Mother.
So they get touched, say by that power you can say.
Then these emotions become enlightened
and when these emotions become enlightened
they have a power to solve the problem. Do you see the point?
As if they had reached the shore where they got the light
and this problem can be solved.
Because now you are not in an individual cell,
you are in the expanse, you are in the samashti
and because you have entered into that position,
that's why you have got these powers of entering to another person's body,
to see the vibrations of another person,
to raise the Kundalini. Otherwise you could not have done it.
So for you it is very easy because I am also sitting here in person.
So easy to put these emotions just there
so that they get enlightened and your wish is fulfilled,
because emotions are nothing but wishes. These are unfulfilled wishes.
Now how they do it? Otherwise is also this way that you take up these emotions
and put them, so that is, these emotions are actually -- the left side,
as I said, is the desire.
So the desire is taken, any desire, and is put in the Prana.
Now how do you put it on the Prana?
That you control your Prana -- that's why they do Prana-yamas, you see?
Like you sit down now, very comfortably,
now you have a desire, you put your attention to that.
Attention is very important -- you see?
Now this attention is to be put onto the Prana,
so the emotions are there
and then bring those emotions and put them into your attention,
means they are now, you are aware of them.
Now what you do is to watch your breathing. See now,
try to reduce your breathing, reduce it.
In the sense that you have breathed out, wait for a while, then breath in
for a long time. Then you breathe out.
So in one minute your breezing will be less than normal.
All right? Try that. Breathe in.
now with the emotions, keep the attention on the emotions -- you see?
so that the connection is established.
Hmm. Better? You see the Kundalini rises?
Now when you are breathing you find that there is a space in-between,
which you just leave it vacant.
Breathe in!
Now leave it vacant.
Now breathe out.
Now leave it vacant.
Breathe in. Keep it there.
Then leave it.
Keep out-side. Now breathe in.
Now start breathing in such a way that you stop your breathing.
Your attention should be on the heart, or could be on the emotions.
It's better.
Keep the breathing inside for a while,
then bring it out, then outside for a while.
Then again, then you'll find that for a while you will not breathe.
Hmm. You see, you settle down. The Laya takes place between your Prana and your Mana.
Both the Shaktis become one.
Now at this stage when you are silent, now you think of your intellect.
It's lost.
Now just think of it, it's lost, it's no more there.
So what is happening, actually that this Laya -- the attention
goes into the intellect and enlightens t
Aha, now see, the thought is not there -- try to find your intellect within yourself!
Now see! See, where is my intellect? Try to find it!
It's not there, it's not working. Again try it!
It is working, but it has become the samashti,
has become the collective now.
Ha! See now!
See now. Did you follow that?
There is no thought.
This exercise will give you this thoughtless awareness,
establishes in you the thoughtless awareness. There is no thought.
