“There are no miracles. Many laws of nature are still unknown to most of humanity.
Quantum physics, having demolished the absolute certainty of Newtonian physics,
A yogi, established in that state, can change the particles of his body to waves which become invisible to the organs of perception like the eyes etc. The yogi can then travel to other locations and convert back into visible particle based forms.”
Pure nature is not man made and the closer you are to it, the quieter becomes the mind.
just remember that this is a wonderous world outside the confines of ordinary reasoning
After Krishna’s physical demise, the dark ages of Kali will begin where men will have short lives and except in rare cases, lose the capacity to penetrate the mysteries of nature or understand the Vedas.
The linga sharira or the subtle body is made up of fine matter invisible to the ordinary eyes and is shaped like the physical body and fits exactly onto the physical body.
Although the subtle body is almost a duplicate in form of the physical body, when it stands by itself detached from the physical, it appears younger and more beautiful to the eyes of the clairvoyant.
“Clairvoyance,” Babaji said, “is not so common and is possessed only by highly advanced yogis.” He
the subtle body can see, hear and smell but does not have the capacity to touch.
In the beginning, it is not possible to move far from the physical body, but by and by, one learns to travel long distances in the subtle body and
The connection between the subtle body and the physical body, for most people, is at the navel centre, except for the yogi who deliberately ejects the subtle body through the centre between his eye-brows,
The devout who surrender to the Divine are naturally protected from such evil intentions of the practitioners of the black arts.”
This Lama is the caretaker for a series of caves not far from here, where relics, left by extra-terrestrial visitors who came to earth many thousands of years ago, are preserved. They came from a planet in a constellation many light years away.”
“These,” explained Babaji, “are nuggets made of a special material that are packed with super-nutritional substances. The great beings brought them along. A small bit of it diluted in a glass of water, is enough to sustain their bodies for a hundred years or more.
Tantra is a term used for a certain approach to the Truth.
that those who worship knowledge enter into greater darkness.
You walked into a field full of thistles and you get a thorn lodged in your foot. You now try to pull it out with your bare hands but to no avail. So you find a sharper, longer, sturdier thorn to remove the one that is lodged. Similarly, you remove the thorn of ignorance and pain with the thorn of knowledge. Tell me, will you after getting rid of the painful thorn, stick the larger thorn into your foot? No you won’t. You will throw it away. So it is the thorn of knowledge used for removing the thorn of ignorance. Both of them are discarded by the yogi, the seeker, whose aim is liberation.
Now, Brahman, the ultimate reality is never a memory or a thing of the past. It is the living present, the eternal, immediate present and therefore can never be comprehended by knowledge, which only has the past as reference.
When the mind, which is nothing more than a collection of thoughts, is transcended, knowledge, which is memory, a thing of the past,
spiritual journey begins only when the alert intellect recognises the possibility of another dimension, where it cannot reach by normal means of thought or sensory perception, and starts exploring other means to get there.
the Vedanta declares the world to be unreal.
yoga is the elimination of the vrittis, the disturbing waves of the chitta, the mind stuff.
In every human being resides the cosmic energy called the Kundalini Shakti, coiled three and a half times and symbolised by a serpent, at the base of the spine in the muladhara chakra. However, in all, except the yogi who has mastered the technique of awakening this energy, it remains inactive although potent like a coiled spring. Using a technique, which can only be learned directly from a Guru and not by any other means, the yogi succeeds by constant effort in awakening the kundalini and leading it upwards, piercing chakra after chakra, to finally reach the sahasrara chakra at the top.

Thought is the mother of all action.
Imagination is not the sign of a diseased mind. On the contrary, it is the sign of a healthy and rich mind.
Ask a successful and wealthy man and he will tell you how he, in his days of poverty, had visualised in great detail, the house he would live in, the car he would drive, the clothes he would wear, the money he would handle, once he came by his riches. By keeping these images constantly in his mind and working hard on the ideas, he slowly transforms his dreams into reality.
Every passing thought leaves its impression on the invisible world
Great yogis create positive thought forms and direct them towards humans who are in need of them.
Visualise your desires in complete detail and you are sure to attain them, but never visualise harm to others, for that will arrest your own spiritual development and pull you down the ladder of spiritual evolution.
When we go to sleep, keeping our heads towards south and feet towards north ensures a tension-free, restful sleep.
Have faith in your essential divinity son, and you will achieve what looks impossible.
Babaji, how ancient are the teachings of Yoga? Babaji: The yogic teachings are so ancient that it is difficult to trace their origins. The oldest Upanishads contain portions dealing with yogic science and mention them as ancient teachings.
