If you desire to know Lord Shiva in this life, firmly resolve now that whatever happens you will always practice your meditation every day without fail. It is better to miss food, sleep or social engagements etc, if you have to, in order to make time for Lord Shiva. Practicing your meditation and developing the spiritual qualities is the part that you play in your search for Lord Shiva. When you do your part, Lord Shiva and Gurus are then able to lift you up higher in awareness of the presence of Lord Shiva. But you must be determined and discipline yourself. Once you have established your meditation routine for some time it will become natural and easy for you.
Make sure that you practice all of the meditation techniques that I have given you. If you miss out even one of them, your meditation will not go as well as it should.
Do not practice the meditation techniques just to get them done, without any enthusiasm. It is vital that when you sit down to meditate, that you practice the techniques with great care and attention. When you do puja to God, you do it with reverence and devotion as the form of God is right in front of you. You do not do your puja like you are just doing it for the sake of it. Likewise, your meditation practice is an ‘inner puja’ to the Lord Shiva inside of you. Once you have bowed to Lord Shiva and Gurus at the start of your meditation, they are present with you during your meditation. Practice your techniques like an ‘inner puja’ to Lord Shiva and then become absorbed in His Divine presence. These techniques have the great power of Lord Shiva imbued in them, and they have been given to the world by His wish.
Many of the students who have received these techniques can attest to their power and the vibrations of Lord Shiva that they feel when practicing them. To reach the heights of Shiva Consciousness – oneness with the Bliss that is inside you, you must undergo a purification process. This process requires daily, deep practice of the meditation techniques. There is bad karma that is stored up inside of you that needs to be burnt & your higher chakras need to be gradually awakened.
This inner purification and awakening happens by the regular practice of the meditation techniques, and by the grace of Lord Shiva and Gurus that goes to you automatically each time you practice them. Haphazard practice will not facilitate this process. Know that this is a lifelong commitment, not something that will happen in a year or two.
You are all at different stages of spiritual development, and so for some of you practising meditation will come quite easily to you, and for others it will take some time to be able to concentrate and calm the mind, which will be achieved through sustained practice. Rest assured though, even if you are not able to concentrate well in the beginning, the ‘effort’ that you make in your meditations will propel you along the spiritual path regardless. Many of the sincere students on this path of the Yoga of Lord Shiva are blessed with the experience of the presence of Lord Shiva straight away; whether it is in the form of deep Peace, Joy, stillness, vibrations or Light at the Third Eye, a vision of Lord Shiva and the Gurus or a change in their life through the intercession of Lord Shiva or the Gurus.
