Four yanas
Yana. The way to achieve various spiritual levels goes through spiritual practice (sadhana). Many different interests are realized through spiritual practice. It can also be just love or affection for the Almighty or for any saint or for any particular deity (or even just its species). It can also be the suffering from the load of samsara. It can also be a material interest. Spiritual practice includes specific techniques such as asanas, special physical exercises, walking (standing and running), pranayama. Also, spiritual practice includes exercises for the mind, such as meditation, mantras, prayers .reading the sutras. Spiritual practice also includes making changes to your lifestyle. Also, spiritual practice includes various ritual actions, ceremonies. Also, spiritual practice includes various options for making donations, oneself or one's actions or values. They conduct spiritual practice either independently or under the guidance of various mentors. They conduct spiritual practice individually or by joining any congenial groups. Many schools, approaches, ways and means of spiritual research are usually systematized, divided, correlated with the four yanas.
? Hinayana (literally «small chariot») – the path of individual, personal liberation. It has another name: Theravada. This path involves the departure of the adept from home, joining the monastic community and becoming a monk through the adoption of the appropriate monastic vows and commandments. Within the framework of the same yana, the practice of seclusion is also carried out, that is, when an adept discards worldly life, but lives outside the monastic community. It happens that seclusion is carried out outside the community, but under its control. If we compare the speed of spiritual growth in the community and without, then within the community, progress will be an order of magnitude higher. Lay people should aspire to become monks. If this is not possible, then a layman should build his life in such a way that it is as close as possible to that of a monastic. Among the recommended donations that lay people can make are there are donations to the monastic community. Through such a donation, a layman accumulates karmic data so that in his next life there will be no more obstacles to monasticism. The emphasized feature of the Hinayana is social isolation, autism, self-centeredness. To the extent that any communication, the social openness of the adept, casts his condition to the initial, mundane level. The adept is filled with data that he receives from another person, and these alien data, as a rule, become beyond his strength, and, because of this, he falls to the worldly level. The goal of Hinayana is a small nirvana. The one who has reached a small nirvana is called an arhat. After personal achievement, becoming an arhat, the adept will be able to choose what to do next: wait for death and enter a small parinirvana, or embark on the path of the Mahayana.
? Mahayana (literally «big chariot») – in the strict, original sense, this is the continuation of the path of spiritual growth after reaching the level of an arhat. This is the way of the bodhisattva. Bodhisattvayana. The main task of a bodhisattva is to bring all souls to spiritual awakening. The goal of the Mahayana is mahanirvana. The one who eventually achieves mahanirvana is called a buddha.
However, there is another, broader meaning of the word Mahayana. It turned out that the Mahayana can also be practiced at the Hinayana stage. Moreover, it turned out that if a person has not yet reached the level of a bodhisattva, however, despite this, he practices what a bodhisattva should do, then his speed of spiritual advancement increases by an order of magnitude. Therefore,
Mahayana – in a broad sense, it is the way of salvation of all souls. Mahayana adepts initially strive for achievement in order to save all souls. This approach is based on the development of bodhichitta. Bodhichitta (literally "enlightened consciousness") is the conscious choice and determination of the adept, whether that adept is already an arhat or not, to dedicate oneself to the salvation of all souls. Mahayana in this broad sense unites all other vehicles. Mahayana is practiced by both monks and lay people. Within the framework of Mahayana schools, there is often an erroneous opinion that mahanirvana differs from minor nirvana in that minor nirvana is entered individually, while mahanirvana is entered by all together. This is not true. Both are achieved individually (there are practically no cases of simultaneous collective awakening). The difference between the one and the other is in the spiritual level (the repentant sinner is higher in spiritual level than the righteous). The practice of the six yogas of Naropa is also part of the Mahayana.
? Tantrayana (literally «secret chariot», tantra translates as «connection, thread, sequence») is a secret esoteric vehicle. Tantrayana is included in the Mahayana and Vajrayana. In Tanrayana, non-trivial means are used to achieve the goal. Magic. Borderline states (life and death). Psychotechnics. Sociotechnics. Tantra is understood as the practice of attaining the ultimate result (“fruit”)—Buddhahood—by any means possible. "The word "tantra" is understood as the inseparability of the cause (base), skillful methods (path) and fruit." Rituals, mudras, meditations, yantras are practiced in tantra. All tantra practices are secret. You can't tell anyone about them. Otherwise, there will be no effect from the practice. An important detail of tantra is the bodhisattva vow. That is, the adept, without fail, whether he is an arhat or not, must take a vow that he will save all living beings. It is also an important condition for tantra to take a vow to achieve Buddhahood, in order to later save all or as many souls as possible. Tantra is considered the shortest and at the same time the most dangerous path. It is very important for a tantric adept to find a good teacher, who must also be carefully checked.
Tantra transforms the adept into a divine being. Identification with the deity (deities) occurs through mantras, mandalas, meditations, rituals. Of particular importance in practice are signs and symbols, in particular words written in Sanskrit characters (which is quite in line with Orthodox arguments about the need to read prayers in Old Slavonic; and which inevitably creates a special existential perception; although it is more than obvious that the lag of the church language from the modern is a common natural law). Tantra is characterized by an expansion of the list of practices, departs from traditional Buddhist meditations and rituals, and allows to be borrowed from other religions, such as, for example, yoga, Christianity, Sufism, paganism, Taoism. Physiology is studied as a subject of organism transformation. Techniques for activating sexual energy are used. Such a rule is introduced for the work of consciousness that there are no failures in practice, that is, that any failure is not a failure, but, on the contrary, a success, an event necessary for the development, a lesson, and should be studied for further not repeating the mistake. Moral norms are being revised.
Of particular note is the essential difference between real tantra and what it is commonly mistaken for by amateurs. A large number of recently appeared (at the beginning of the 21st century) supposedly Tantric practitioners practicing in the tradition of Rajneesh or Andrey Lapin, in fact, have nothing to do with real tantra. They just engage in very sophisticated group sex, using esoteric, magical and energy techniques. All this they practice for the sake of getting more and more sophisticated pleasure. As a rule, at these orgies, there is not even any talk of any understanding of what spiritual growth is.
? Vajrayana (literally «diamond chariot») is the path to the formation of indestructible consciousness. The main aspect of the Vajrayana is unbreakable commitment to the guru. "Diamond consciousness cannot be formed, it can only be copied." In the Vajrayana, very high demands are placed on the spiritual level of the guru. In the Vajrayana, the guru must be at least a buddha or bodhisattva, very close to awakening. The Vajrayana is considered the highest vehicle. It is easy to see that Christianity is also a diamond chariot insofar as Christianity proclaims the most important aspect of faith in Christ and complete, uncritical obedience to him (God's slavery). As in the tantra of the three types of deeds, the main deed is the deeds of the mind. Thoughts should be only pure or none.
Part 2. Apocalypse Code
Apocalypse (?????????? apokаlypsis, from of/from: ??? and cover: ???????, literally meaning "from cover" – a disclosure or revelation of great knowledge) is the name after its first word of the last book of the New Testament, «The Revelation of St. John the Theologian»; a description of the events, cataclysms and miracles preceding the coming of the Lamb, his coming and the coming of the kingdom of heaven.
Code. The Revelation of John the Theologian is an encrypted message from God to people. To understand the message, you need to have a key to decipher it: code. The key to deciphering is the interpretation of terms. Why was it necessary to be so clever, so difficult to encrypt the message?.. – The answer is simple. If there were no code, if there were no seals, if the message was transmitted in plain text, then it would not have reached the addressee. And the addressee is us.
The lifting of the seals is the lifting of the moral prohibition that humanity had on attempts to decipher the holy Scriptures. Before the seals were removed, mankind was under the delusion that only the holy Church, its dignitaries, had the moral right to interpret the holy Scriptures by default. The lifting of the seals – is the destruction of that prejudice, the stereotype that if Revelation is part of the doctrine of this religion, then it cannot contradict its doctrine and, moreover, testify against it.
Almighty (ch. 1)
Chapter 1
This is the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things which must happen soon, which he sent and made known by his angel to his servant, John, who testified to God's word, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, about everything that he saw.
Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is at hand.
John, to the seven assemblies that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from God, who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne; and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood; and he made us to be a Kingdom, priests to his God and Father; to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen. "I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."
I John, your brother and partner with you in oppression, Kingdom, and perseverance in Christ Jesus, was on the isle that is called Patmos because of God's Word and the testimony of Jesus Christ. I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet saying, " What you see, write in a book and send to the seven assemblies: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea."
I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lamp stands. And among the lamp stands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest. His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire. His feet were like burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters. He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest. When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He laid his right hand on me, saying, "Don't be afraid. I am the first and the last, and the Living one. I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. I have the keys of Death and of Hades. Write therefore the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will happen hereafter; the mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lamp stands. The seven stars are the angels of the seven assemblies. The seven lamp stands are seven assemblies.
Chapter 1 (undo)
This is the Revelation of John, which God gave him to show to his servants the things which must happen soon, which he sent and made known by his angel to his servant, John, who testified to God's word, about everything that he saw.
Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is at hand.
John, to the seven assemblies that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from God, who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne; and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood; and he made us to be a Kingdom, priests to his God and Father; to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen. "I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."
I John, your brother and partner with you in oppression, Kingdom, and perseverance in Christ Jesus, was on the isle that is called Patmos because of God's Word and the testimony of Jesus Christ. I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet saying, " What you see, write in a book and send to the seven assemblies: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea."
I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lamp stands. And among the lamp stands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest. His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire. His feet were like burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters. He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest. When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He laid his right hand on me, saying, "Don't be afraid. I am the first and the last, and the Living one. I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. I have the keys of Death and of Hades. Write therefore the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will happen hereafter; the mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lamp stands. The seven stars are the angels of the seven assemblies. The seven lamp stands are seven assemblies.
Almighty – is the highest God. The same as the god Trimurti in Hinduism.
Who is and who was and who is to come – Vishnu and Brahma and Shiva.
Like a son of man – is the Almighty here.
Asia – is the country of the Aces.
I was in the Spirit – an altered state of consciousness, meditation.
Seven stars – seven chakras.
Seven Spirits – seven roses of the winds of chakra energies.
Lampstand – is a teaching. The essence of any lamp is lighting. Light makes it possible to see certain things, and in particular: chakras.
Seven lampstands – seven teachings about each chakra.
Assemblie – is a place where teaching is learned, a school, a church.
Seven аssemblies – seven churches, seven schools, seven school classes, seven levels of comprehension, seven levels of spiritual practice. Since the number seven is repeated for stars, angels, and lamps, in so far this figure correlates with the same essence, namely with the chakras. Since the chakras can be arranged in ascending order, the seven schools can be understood as seven levels of school, seven classes.
Angel of the assemblie – student of the school. From God's point of view, an "angel" is a servant. Accordingly, a servant who ministers to a church can be called the "angel" of that church. The bulk of the employees in the church are parishioners. Parishioners in the church comprehend the Truth. Accordingly, parishioners can be called disciples of the church. And thus, parishioners can also be called the angels of the church. In the epithet "angel" one can catch the loving attitude of God towards his disciples. The epithet "angel" indicates a very high spiritual level of a person.
Angels of the seven assemblies – disciples of the seven levels of comprehension (competence). The levels of competence correspond to the levels of the chakras.
Message to the angel of the assemblie – hint in practice to a student of a specific level. A student may get stuck on one or another chakra. That is, this angel, this disciple works with this energy center and has a problem in his spiritual growth, which is associated with the transition from the level of this given chakra to the next level. And the message to the seven churches gives him a clue what to do in his situation.
Star – chakra. Star is something very high. Star is a charka in its highest state, a chakra in an awakened state. Angel – servant, disciple, submission, dependence. The assemblie – system of comprehension of the truth, a system of spiritual practice. The star are the angel of the assemblie – the state of the chakra is essentially subordinated to the system of spiritual practice. If there is a correct system of practice, then there will be development, evolution of the chakra. If not, then no. The star are the angel of the assemblie – the angel of the church is essentially a star, that is, a spiritual practitioner of a very high level.
Lampstand – teaching, theory, law. The assemblie – system of practice, system of comprehension (competence). The lamp is the essence of the assemblie – the teaching is essentially a system of spiritual practice. The seven lampstands are seven assemblies – the seven levels of teaching are in fact seven levels of comprehension of the Truth, seven levels of spiritual practice.
He had seven stars in his right hand – the state of any chakra depends not only on the student himself, but also on the Almighty. If the Almighty does not want it, the chakras will not open.
Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword – the Almighty is a warrior on the verbal front.
Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, Laodicea – it is in this sequence that these cities indicate the correct direction of the procession and its nodal points. The procession is performed clockwise. It can be seen from the map that there is no other, more optimal sequence. If you are in Ephesus, it is stupid to visit Pergamum first, and then Smyrna. It is impossible to be in Pergamon without passing Smyrna. Similarly, it is impossible to get into the third grade of school without having mastered the second grade program. Similarly, it is impossible to raise energy to manipura without first raising it to svadhisthana. This procession is performed three times. In the first cycle, there is a sequential opening of the chakras in order from the bottom up. This clears the way for raising the energy of kundalini, which sleeps in the first, lower chakra. Reaching the crown, the seventh chakra, kundalini causes phenomena that are designated by the expression kundalini awakening. The people who awakened the kundalini are designated in Revelation as the chosen people, the sons of Israel, sealed, one hundred and forty-four thousand. After the seventh chakra, there is a return back to the first chakra, in order to close this time, not to hammer, namely to close, the chakras. Closing the chakras in this cycle means closing the energy leaks from these chakras. At the level of the sixth chakra, the state of holiness is reached. People filled with holiness are referred to in Revelation as those in white robes. At the level of the seventh chakra, personal liberation occurs. This is the arhat level. After personal liberation, there is a return back to the first chakra, this time to form a special physical body. At the level of each chakra of the third cycle, its exclusive body is formed, capable of leaving the physical. At the level of the seventh chakra of the third cycle, the level of a Buddha is reached. The entire third cycle can be called the path of the conqueror in Truth. Recommendations for the first and second cycle are combined. Recommendations for the third cycle are written separately, after the word conquering.
Kundalini – Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is kundalini when it is said that one who had a flame over his head and spoke in all languages. This is just mystical energy when it is said that the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove descended on Jesus Christ. This is the Absolute when it is said that the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven. In all other cases, the Holy Spirit is usually understood as the energy of kundalini.
To awaken the kundalini, you must first of all not waste any form of sexual energy: "be a virgin". Secondly, you need not to "overeat".
And from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness – here "Jesus Christ" means Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the savior of the past.
To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood; and he made us to be a Kingdom, priests to his God and Father – here Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the Savior of the past, is meant.
Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him – here the Lamb, the savior from the future, is meant.
Including those who pierced him – this refers to Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the savior of the past, and also a metaphor is used here: those who pierce the Lamb, the savior from the future, in complete identity with how they pierced the savior of the past.
All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him – here the Lamb, the savior from the future, is meant.
I John, your brother and partner with you in oppression, Kingdom, and perseverance in Christ Jesus, was on the isle that is called Patmos because of God's Word and the testimony of Jesus Christ – here "Jesus Christ" means Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the savior of the past.
I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore – according to legend, Shiva drank a bowl of poison of bad karma of all people and died, but after that, his wife Sati resurrected him by pouring nectar into his mouth from a bowl of good karma of people.
For the time is at hand – the practitioner should always be in the mood that literally tomorrow will be the end of the world. Otherwise, if he does not think this way, he will not be able to achieve his goal in the end, for example, he will not be saved, or, for example, he will not become a buddha.
Messages for seven churches (ch. 2-3)
Layout of the chakras
First – muladhara
Chapter 2
"To the angel of the assembly in Ephesus write: "He who holds the seven stars in his right hand, he who walks among the seven golden lampstands says these things:
"I know your works, and your toil and perseverance, and that you can't tolerate evil men, and have tested those who call themselves apostles, and they are not, and found them false. You have perseverance and have endured for my name's sake, and have not grown weary. But I have this against you, that you left your first love. Remember therefore from where you have fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else I am coming to you swiftly, and will move your lampstand out of its place, unless you repent. But this you have, that you hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of my God. …
? First level – Muladhara. This chakra is associated with hell. At the level of this chakra, rajas, the energy of anger, is strong. A person at this level is easily angry. Both for yourself and for other people. This anger comes with a waste of energy. And because of this, the energy cannot rise, sublimate higher, to the next chakra. Through anger and hatred, a person strengthens his connection with hell. The solution to this problem is not to inhibit hatred in order to follow anger, but to cultivate the opposite of hate: love. However, love is different. It is necessary to pay attention not to any love, but only to the first. Scripture gives a hint: repent that you left your first love, and remember therefore from where you have fallen.
First love – "Jesus said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. A second likewise is this, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments."" (Mat. ch. 22).
1. 1. The first highest love is to love the original highest instance: the highest Absolute. The Supreme Absolute is the original highest absolute state. The same as the Atman or essence of the Buddha. The Absolute is identical to Nirvana. "Nirvana" translates as "lack of excitement." It would be more correct to understand nirvana as not as some place in some space, but as, simply, a state. The state of nirvana is a state of liberation, a state of absolute peace. Nirvana is defined in the sutras as the destruction of worldly desires, or as the eradication of knowledge and experience. As a result of the destruction of worldly desires in the state of nirvana comes deliverance, liberation from suffering. Initially, the True Ego of a person is part of the Absolute. That is why the scriptures say that "blasphemy against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven." The “Holy Spirit” here is precisely understood as the Absolute, and it is easy to understand why it is the blasphemy against the Absolute that a person will not be forgiven for. Since the True Ego is a fundamental component of the structure of the soul, by blaspheming the Absolute and, accordingly, the True Ego, a person distances himself from his own True Ego, actually destroying himself. Since the Absolute resides in nirvana, and since the achievement of the state of the Absolute (as well as nirvana) occurs through pratyahara (separation from the senses), as well as through meditation with the denial of all worlds of samsara; the Absolute is indifferent to samsara; the assertion of many schools of Hinduism (as well as the Abrahamic religions) that Brahman the Absolute is the creator of samsara is erroneous. Such a delusion of the overwhelming number of confessions can be fully explained by the fact that samsara tends to try to keep souls within itself by any means. And, therefore, samsara weaves cunning nets: “the fetters of samsara,” from which it is difficult for souls to extricate themselves. The similar aforementioned erroneous view of the Absolute is also one of these fetters. The image of the Absolute can be imagined as a transparent void in which there is nothing. The yantra (symbol) of the Absolute can be a diamond.
1. 2. With the highest love one must also love the Almighty. This is the second part of "first love". The Absolute is the end, and the Almighty is the means. The end is always more important than the means. Unlike the Absolute, the Almighty is a living being. This means that the Almighty has a soul, has a mind, has its own will. Unlike an ordinary person, the Almighty is a god. This means that the Almighty, like all the inhabitants of the astral, does not have an ordinary physical body, but only an astral body. The Almighty is the highest god of the upper astral (Pure Heavens). The Almighty is the Buddha. This means that he has reached the state of nirvana (mahanirvana) and is constantly in this state. The Almighty is that very rare soul who, at the highest divine level, is engaged in the universal salvation of souls. This means, that the Almighty is able to lead a very large number of his disciples to the highest state. Since the deepest essence of the Almighty and the essence of the Absolute coincide, the image of the Almighty may well be presented as identical with the Absolute. However, one can notice some difference in the features of the "first love" for the Absolute and the "first love" for the Almighty. If love for the Absolute is accompanied by bliss, then love for the Almighty is accompanied by mobilization. To love the Almighty means to be faithful to him: "be faithful." "To be faithful" means to do what the Almighty requires; to do what the Almighty teaches, what the Almighty calls for. The essential attribute of the Almighty are the four highest spiritual qualities: maitri, karuna, prashansa and shanti.
2. 1. Maitri – is holy love. First Karuna. This is the same love that the Bible speaks of: "Love your neighbor as yourself" – the second most important commandment. In the strictest sense, holy love is a strong desire for this or that soul to reach the highest spiritual state.
2. 2. Karuna – translated as compassion. Second Karuna. In a broad sense, in the Mahayana system of practice, the Buddhist Karuna includes all four states of the soul: Maitri, Karuna, Prashansa, and Shanti. In its own, not expanded, meaning, in the strictest sense, karuna is a strong regret that this or that soul has not yet reached the highest spiritual state, the state of nirvana.
2. 3. Prashansa – translated as praise. Third Karuna. In the strictest sense, prashansa is a strong praise for the fact that a particular soul is advancing to the highest state or has reached the highest spiritual state.
2. 4. Shanti – translates as steadfastness. Fourth Karuna. Whatever happens and whatever she does, the soul of shanti always remains in a calm, peaceful state.
The above six qualities do not turn on in a person at the snap of a finger. To master these qualities, you need to engage in appropriate meditations. In particular, one should practice the six Karuna meditations. All meditations should be done while sitting in the correct sitting posture. You need to sit in the lotus position or as close as possible to it, straighten the spine, raise the top of the head as high as possible. Hands can lie in any position. The duration of the classes is from one minute to one hour for each meditation.
1. Meditation of the Absolute. Imagine that the whole world around you and you yourself have disappeared, that everything has turned into a transparent void. At the same time, you practice pratyahara (stopping the senses): "no feelings – no suffering, no suffering – no movement". Maintain, in accordance with this formula, immobility. The key phrase to start this meditation is "nothing".
2. Meditation of fidelity to the Almighty. Form an inner attitude to fulfill any command of the Highest God. The key phrase to start this meditation is: “Lord! Lord! Lord!" As another variation of this meditation, you can practice the following. Repent that you are not doing what the Highest God tells you to do. The key phrase to start this meditation is: “Forgive me, Lord! Forgive me, Lord! Forgive me, Lord!"
3. Shanti (steadiness) meditation. Imagine, one after another, situations that occur in your life and that make you suffer to one degree or another. Repeating again and again the mental experience of these situations or unpleasant sensations from them, maintain inner peace of mind. As you live through these various situations in your life, remain unwavering, no matter what happens in these situations. The key phrase to start this meditation is "don't care".
4. Prashansa (praise) meditation. Introduce one by one those who are superior to you in some way, and praise their excellent qualities from the bottom of your heart. The key phrase to start this meditation is: “Glory to Thee, Lord! Glory to Thee, Lord! Glory to Thee, Lord!”
5. Karuna (compassion) meditation. Experience great pain, great regret that all souls are suffering, that all souls do not know the Truth, that they are not engaged in spiritual practice, that they are captured by delusions, that they are captured by worldly desires. Imagine these souls one by one and try to warm them up, try to share your inner warmth with them. The key phrase to start this meditation is "what a pity".
6. Shanti (holy love) meditation. Think how wonderful it would be if all souls were happy. Imagine souls near and far one by one, and think that you wish from the bottom of your heart that these souls destroy their worldly desires and that these souls achieve spiritual awakening and liberation. The key phrase to start this meditation is: "I want all souls to be happy".
