Be the Ocean


                 ‘Give up the drop and become part of the ocean’
-         Jalal –ud- din- rumi
Who am I? Where do I come from and where will I go once this physical garb is worn out? This is the eternal quest of  all mortals. The need to find the reason why we incarnate leads us to begin our search in life. Some begin early while others later when the dusk has drawn them close to the end of  physical existence. Most of us never find an answer while others choose not to walk on this path. Many go to astrologers and palmists and return with some answers but generally remain dissatisfied and begin their search again for another solution regarding their problems. Some go to satsangs and others sit by the feet of sadhus. Some rationalize and believe that they have been born by accident and others lament the futility of living itself. Many believe in the power of dua and prayer and others think it all a big hoax. Everyone is looking for a cure, a remedy which can get them out of suffering.
 But interestingly no one wants to work at releasing themselves from pain and hurt and expect that one fine day some miracle will just happen and they will be released from human bondage.    
 
In my years of practice I have found that everyone has an interest in finding out what their past life has been. This has nothing to do with their belief. Even the ones who say that they don’t beleve do arrive and go through the session. Curiosity always takes the better of you when something as mystical as past life is heard from others.
Life has given us the abundance to love and become a loving human being. Why don’t we use this powerful energy that lives in us and waits to emerge and envelope all mankind around us. When someone does a past life session their first observation when they come out of the altered state is to say, ‘It is wonderful to be free. I felt as if I was one with the source.’ The experience of light is blissful. The celetial experince is unique and they are delighted to observe that they are not the body but a vast gleaming  force of divinity. This awarenss is enough to wake them up from their material slumber.
When this realization dawns the person begins to dissolve the lines of separation that have been created between the self and the non self. The non self is envisaged as the divine power who is considered invincible and limitless. Sudenly when the ethereal self is experienced which is limitless there is a paradigm shift that takes the veil of the belief of oneself. From being considered as a physcial entity who is entrenched with the material world suddenly you are identifying yourself with non matter. This brings about a lightness of heart and a lightfootedness. Many people will say that they feel wooly and can hardly seem to be thinking. This no thought minute has within it the energy of primal information since the beginning of the universe. The past life session provides the background to witness the oneness with the source. Light dissolves in light and all becomes a rhythmic OM. There is a feeling of being undivided and unbroken. Suddenly you find yourself singing in your heart and  sheltered  under the umbrella of love. This love is shimmering through you.
