You trumped pride

Shaktipat Kundalini Yoga (SKY), Surrender Meditation

Surrender Meditation, the practice that follows initiation, allows for the energy ignited through shaktpat to remain active. The unique feature of Surrender Meditation is that, with the release of the life energy in the body through shaktipat, meditation occurs effortlessly on its own and kundalini awakens naturally and safely. Meditation is spontaneous and brings about accelerated evolution, union with God/Truth, and liberation.

Shaktipat – The transmission of shakti for the purpose of releasing the life energy in the body to awaken Kundalini, the evolutionary force.

Shakti – The instigator of action, the activating force of nature, nature’s go-power. Shakti in a body is called Prana.

Prana – The life force in the body that is your life. Prana’s job is to maintain and sustain life.

How Surrender Meditation Works

In the practice of SKY Surrender Meditation, prana is released from the domination of the mind through surrender, so that everything that follows is natural. This requires letting go of one’s control during sadhana by delegating the job to God (whatever your name is for That). Through this surrender of the will, the life force is free in the body of the practitioner. To the degree that this energy is free, the practitioner is free.

Allowing Shakti to run things through surrender to the Divine is like an ongoing initiation. Everything happens spontaneously. You don’t do anything. By surrendering in the context of meditation, external influences are gradually removed and it becomes possible to surrender more fully.

As you continue to meditate, your ability to surrender increases and wonderful experiences present themselves. In the Bhagavad Gita, Krishna initiates Arjuna into this yoga and tells him not to disturb others with the knowledge he has been given, but to keep it hidden and let others be happy where they are, that most people are not truly interested in pursuing God/Truth, whatever they may think or say, but bow down to their own minds, content with what is familiar. But for the practitioner of SKY Surrender Meditation, success is inevitable.

“Abandon all ‘shoulds’ and surrender only to me, and I will release you from all misfortunes and give you freedom. Fear not.” — Bhagavad Gita, chapter 18, shloka 66
