Triple Eclipses - 2020

The year 2020 has shaken the world to its core. It has brought great trials, but it also has its gifts. A set of triple eclipses on 5th June, 21st June and 5th July, present a rarest of rare opportunity for humankind. The World War 1 started and ended on a eclipse day. Even the Mahabharata war is widely believed to have happened between eclipses.

An eclipse is a physical phenomenon, it happens due to the alignment of Sun, Moon and Earth. So how are new Spiritual energies generated during this period? Guruji had explained – “The alignment results in a shadow and certain radiations are prevented. In the absence of the regular energies, certain new energies are released. These are very rare filtered subtle energies. Rishis (Light Masters) bring these energies and prepare new energies by combining them with the other existing energies. It is difficult to store these eclipse energies as they are in a pristine state, hence they are added with other energies and stored.”

Back in 2009, a similar set of triple eclipses had occurred, around the same time of the year. Guruji had spoken about the eclipses, as follows:

“The Mahabharata war was confined to a place, Kurukshetra. They followed principles. The World Wars took war to every corner. Even now no civilian is spared. But what we are not aware of is, that this war is happening now in every individual, in every house. This war is here, it is happening. The first Shloka of Gita says, ‘Dharmakshetre Kurukshetre.’ Vyasa Maharshi meant Kurukshetra was Dharmakshetra. But now there is Kurukshetra in every person. This is the time when we have to choose Light.

“We don’t have to be scared of wars that occur outside. We have to be aware of the war that is happening inside us. In that way, these eclipses are wonderful opportunities. There will be great changes for the better, at individual level and even at the global level. So let us not miss this opportunity. Let us meditate during the eclipses. Those who are away can link up to this place, Taponagara, and meditate, you will have all the benefits. Just think of this place, or me.

“We received emails saying that there will be havoc because of this eclipse. It is true that there will be great turmoil. Whenever changes occur, many old things go away; there will be new things. I want every one of us to understand, that change is not the end, it is the beginning. Change is an end for certain things but beginning for many other things. There will be many collapses.

“But we don’t have to feel scared about collapses; there will be new systems and there will be new things waiting at the doorstep. The future has all the Divine gifts waiting for us to open up and receive.”

Someone defined the COVID-19 pandemic as the third World War, given the scale and depth of its effect on every human being. This is a test, a churning of the Times we live in; it is meant to bring out the best in humanity. The eclipses will bring Spiritual energies which can help humanity catapult to an advanced era and a peaceful future.

The details of the three eclipses are as follows:

Guruji Krishnananda had said that Eclipses bring major changes at all levels – individual, societal, national and global. All these changes depend on the Karmas and the Time. Every #eclipse has its influence all over the world. Eclipses are the best time to meditate. In fact, Maharshi Amara, had said that meditating during an eclipse has the same effect as meditating for six months. Generally, the effect of an eclipse begins 48 days in advance and lasts for the next 48 days. The Spiritual energies of an eclipse are subtle. They do not enter us unless we invite them. When we meditate and welcome them, they enter us, help us and bring us enormous benefits.

Meditator – A Channel of God

“A good Meditator allows the Divine Energies to pass and flow through him. Without consciously practising anything, he will be working as a channel of God’s Love and Energies.” – Guruji Krishnananda

Maha Shivaratri

Guruji Krishnananda

Yesterday was the Sacred day of Maha Shivaratri. At midnight, the Great Rishis (Light Masters) travelled to the Divine Plane of Lord Shiva and brought a part of Him with them to our earth. So, Lord Shiva has literally come down to earth.

Lord Shiva is generally known as the Destroyer, because His energies are required for the destructive processes of the Cosmos. But the energies of Creation and Sustenance are also in Him.

Today morning before Sunrise, Lord Shiva entered every house as a ray of Light. His Divine Energies will be available on this earth as Light for ten days.

The Rishis apprise Lord Shiva of the Spiritual condition of this earth and its people. Based on this, Lord Shiva may give instructions to the Rishis, who are the administrators of this earth.

On the first day of Shivaratri, there is a custom of staying awake through the night. This practice is called ‘Jagarana’ in Sanskrit, which literally means, not sleeping. Just staying awake on one night does not help us spiritually in any way.

‘Jagarana’ is not about sleep deprivation. It is to be understood as Being Aware or Awakening. It is being aware of the Presence of Lord Shiva on earth.

During the ten days of Lord Shiva’s stay on earth, we can absorb more of His energies by meditating and channelling Light more, and also by trying to be aware of His energies and His Presence throughout the day.

May the Lord’s Divine energies destroy all the negativity and ignorance in us and help us awaken.

The Sacred month of Ashada Masa

The Sacred month of Ashada Masa
(Based on the teachings of Guruji Krishnananda)

On 28th June, we entered the most auspicious month of the year, known as Ashada Masa in Sanskrit. This is the month during which we receive the Highest and the Purest energies directly from the Source of All, the realm of God Himself.

Since these energies are so powerful, there are no inauspicious moments in this month. This period is like a gift from God, and is most suited for intense Meditations.

In the past, people knew about the sacredness of this month and therefore, they would not waste any time in worldly matters like marriages and other celebrations; they would spend all their time in Spiritual activities that would help them advance spiritually.

Over the years, this knowledge got distorted and people started believing that Ashada Masa is inauspicious for worldly activities. Its importance for Spiritual activities was forgotten.

The energies that the earth is receiving keeps increasing in intensity and reaches the peak on 12th July. This day receives the maximum energies and is known as Guru Poornima. The real Guru is God Himself, who takes us from darkness to Light. The month ends on 26th July.

So, let us make the most of this Divine Gift of Ashada Masa by meditating and channelling Light as much as possible and spread peace to our troubled world.
