For those followers of GP Mahan's Kundalini Yoga, if you have
Mahan's photos, it would be advisable to place the photo or photos in a
high position in your home or office. Mahan himself advised placing the
photo in a high position for good benefits. It certainly is not a good
idea to clump up Mahan's photo with other photos. Experience speaks for
itself. Santhosham.
In the early days, Mahan did not allow
anyone to garland his photos. Later when he found out the florists were
hard struck by this, his decision was changed and garlanding his photos were
allowed esp.jasmine and rose flowers. Mahan was very practical in all
everyday activities .Once in 1980 at KL Sabhai, one member was absent for 2
continuous days. When Mahan inquired as to
why this disciple did not turn up, it was explained to him that the
disciple was doing overtime and thus could not attend. Mahan was happy
with this and said that was the correct thing to do. Mahan said duty
first and then only meditation. Mahan jokingly said one cannot do
meditation on an empty stomach. Santhosham.
For beginners in Kundalini Yoga Meditation in GP Mahans
method, the first 2 weeks are very important because one has to abstain
from sex , smoking and alcoholic drinks. Some of them will not be able to
abstain esp.sex. Sometimes a married woman will come and wish to get the
initiation ..I will insist that prior permission is given by the
husband and vice versa. Sometimes back a
married man came to get initiation. He agreed to the terms of the 2 week
trial and I gave him the initiation. 3 days later he came back and said
he did not abstain and wanted to re do the initiation. I obliged and
told him to be more careful this time. 2 days later again he came back
and said he had another fallout and wanted again to be re-initiated. I
told him to go and come back in 5 years time. For married people it is
compulsory that both parties understand and agree to the 2 week
trial. Some people do not take Kundalini Yoga seriously--for them its just
a fad. Santhosham.
On
the 20th October 1976, I went to Upper Serangoon Road ,Singapore to
meet His Holiness Gnanavallal Paranjothi Mahan. I showed Mahan an
introductory letter given by Guru Paranjothi K.Velu (who was initiated in
1953). Mahan read the letter and asked me to bring in my travel bag
which was near the door. Mahan then asked me to wash up and then to sit
on the tiger skin in the initiation room. After initiating me, Mahan left
the room. While I was meditating, I suddenly heard like a tigers roar. I
was a bit shaken up and slowly opened my eyes. I saw an elderly woman
sitting in the room meditating. She was having breathing problems which
sounded to me like a tigers roar. I was not aware of Mahan bringing her
into the room to meditate.
If you are seriously practicing Kundalini Meditation, pls take note that if you are arrogant-jealous-hateful-cunning
...this will impede your success in Kundalini meditation and not only
that the Kundalini thru the mechanism of the subconscious will be
teaching you lessons from time to time until one repents and realizes
the fault. Some of the lessons might be too severe so take heed and be
very careful when dealing with the Kundalini. Mahan had said true
disciples will be free from these negative traits. Better learn from the
experienced ones than to get your fingers burnt. Santhosham.
One
of our members is now residing in Canada. This member has a strange
affinity with mad people. Whenever a mad person is nearby his brain will
pick up the vibrations and he will start to feel uneasy and know
definitely that a mad person is nearby. His brain just like Spider-Man, is
able to pick up the vibes. Once when he was in Malaysia, he was having
lunch in an Indian Restaurant with his
handphone on the table. One guy approached him and said his phone charge
was low and needed to make a important call and asked to borrow our
members phone. This stranger then borrowed the phone and went out of the
shop on the pretext of poor coverage. Our member waited and waited for
the guy to return but he had run away with the phone. That evening our
member phoned me and related this incident. Intuitively I asked him
whether the last few days he was feeling very confident or over
confident and that nothing can harm him and whether he was very cocky
about it. He answered yes, he was feeling exactly that. I explained to
him that the Kundalini is sometimes very cheeky and will play games so
as to teach a lesson. The lesson here is always be HUMBLE AND NOT BE ARROGANT.
A few
years back, one of our members was admitted at Putra Hospital in Putrajaya. This lady was admitted for an operation on her knee. Just prior to
the operation, she came to know that the surgeon's name was Dr.Eammen (a
Myamar doctor). She was petrified on hearing the name because it reminded
her of the Hindu God of Death. Her pressure was very high and the
operation had to be postponed for the following day. After consoling her
and giving her confidence, she was ready for the operation which was
successfully performed. Santhosham.
