Sri Swami Vishwananda Speaks of getting in touch with the Spiritual Body

Excerpt from Sri Swami Vishwananda's talk on Easter Sunday 2011 in Shree Peetha Nilaya's Chapel:

"...And you see the humility of Christ through death, through taking the Cross, and then on the third day showing that He is beyond the body, showing that God is beyond life and death. So He Resurrected, again. He became alive, again, to show that within the body of man lies the spiritual body and when one is in touch with that spiritual body, one is connected with the Christ within. One gets awakened within one’s Self the Christ. That’s what Christ said, “I am the Way, the Truth and the Light. There is no other way than me to the Father”, which means until one becomes like the Son of God.

Likewise, if one doesn’t become like all the Saints who have become One with Christ, Realisation or the Fullness of the Mystery of God is hidden to the eyes of man, is hidden to the mind of man. Only when we are in Communion with Christ, when we are in Communion with the Divine and when this Love is awakened – not a love that we comprehend here in the mind, but a Love which is far deep within One’s Self – from the depth of your heart this Love gets awakened, then Christ acts through each one."

~~~ Sri Swami Vishwananda

"...when one is in touch with that spiritual body, one is connected with the Christ within" and only then can we heal ourselves when "...the Fullness of the Mystery of God..." is no longer hidden from us. Then we can heal ourselves through our faith.

Evening prayers take place Tuesday through Friday at 7:30 PM and Saturday at 6:30 PM in the beautiful icon-filled Chapel at Shree Peetha Nilaya. Please come join us in celebrating prayers to St. Panteleimon, St. Nicholas, All the Saints & Martyrs, Mother Mary and for Saturday Liturgy in the Russian Orthodox tradition. All are welcome!

Sri Swami Vishwananda's Advice for Healing Negativity

Swami Vishwananda said Sunday at the Darshan in Bruges, Belgium: "...turning the mind within. What is happening outside is also happening inside. Does all the outside make us happy? No! We can see too much suffering in the outside. We want change. So, how do we change all this? We must change! The more we focus on negative things – news, chit-chatting – the more we become negative. The more negative energy we create, the more negative things happen. Better is to be calm, be at peace and go inside. Go in calmness into the depths of your heart. Then you will become a temple of inner peace."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Come tomorrow, Friday 8th April, to Shree Peetha Nilaya (registration required – registration@bhaktimarga.org – and experience the "temple of inner peace" that is being in the presence of Sri Swami Vishwananda. Darshan begins at 7 PM in the Darshan Hall. Please join Swamiji and us in singing bhajans to the Divine, "Go in calmness into the depths of your heart..." and feel the Love Incarnate that is Gurudeva!

Sri Swami Vishwananda's Gift for World Healing at Mahashivaratri

03 MARCH 2011

Mahasivaratri

Shree Pita Nilaya Centre

Temple Springen, Germany

2nd Golden Lingam

Rarest and most auspicious occurence! Sri Swami Vishwananda gave birth to a second Hiranyagarbha Golden Lingam this afternoon. They symbolize the two eyes of Narayana and the two creational forces of the Universe (female/male, Shakti/Shiva, etc.).

Swamiji said (excerpt) about the Hiranyagarbalingams: You see, these two Hiranyagarbalingams symbolise here the two eyes of Narayana. And they symbolise the unity of the two forces, the two hemispheres of the world, the Northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere and the hemispheres of the universe, also. You see, you are aware only of the hemispheres of this world, but the whole universe is governed by these two cosmic energies, which are the female energy and the male energy. That is what makes everything [come] into manifestation. These two lingams, the Hiranyagarbalingams, that you see, symbolise these two cosmic energies – which you can call it Shiva/Shakti, Laxmi/Narayan and Brahma/Vishnu – in their fullness. Lord Narayana shows that all is present within Him. the Creator, the Protector and the Destroyer is only Him.

Sri Swami Vishwananda Love Incarnate

In the previous post Elizabeth from Poland said the following about her meditation with Mahavatar Kriya Babaji:

"I felt enormous Love. This Love slowly started filling each of my cells. There was peace and the realisation that I was not alone and never should be and that He will always be with me."

This reminded me of my experience with Sri Swami Vishwananda at the very first darshan of His that I was blessed to attend. As I knelt before Him looking into and drowning in His shining, soft & warm brown eyes, I felt enormous Love, also. It wrapped It's arms around me and completely enveloped me in the most wondrous warmth and feeling of Oneness and I knew for just a little that we are all this huge Love. This was so profound and healing for me as I'd felt so separate all my life and never before remembered my connection with the Divine. I am always and ever grateful that He is with us, for His Love, for His teaching and to serve His Lotus feet.

Healing through the Grace of Sri Swami Vishwananda

Elizabeth from Szczecin

31^st December it will have been two years Since my first experience with Om Healing. It was New Year's Eve when my friends and I sat in a circle and… it flowed. Literally because when I heard the New Year’s fireworks I heard them like they were emanating from completely different world. I felt like I was sailing across the entire ocean, carried by the all-embracing Om sound. It was a groundbreaking moment as many positive changes entered upon my life afterwards. Since that moment I take part in Om Healing regularly. Usually that means once a week. Once, there were nobody in my hometown to lead the Om Healing so I asked Sri Swami Vishwananda for the blessing. That is exactly how I became one of the leaders.

How did Om Healing help me? Above all I am much more peaceful and calm now and finally I overcame my depression which have been lasting for the last 8 years, with short intervals. I have not been taking any antidepressants because I do not need them anymore. What is more, half a year ago I even resigned from my therapy. My psyche is now strong enough to get along well just by myself. Thanks to that I can carry on developing my spirituality. I am able to exercise Atma Kriya. Problems with the insomnia disappeared as well. I strongly believe that, as the time goes by, thanks to Om Healing practice other health problems will be also gone. As any other treatment, Om Healing requires time and patience to overcome not only the signs of the illness but also its real, underlying cause.

I fervently encourage everybody to practice Om Healing as the most beautiful thing one can gain from this technique is not only the openness of one’s heart for the disinterested, divine love but the fact that during the practice of Om Healing we can emit this light of love to every being which is in need as well. ~~~Elizabeth

Healing Mauritius Sept-Oct. 2010

Suniti is a 42 year old devotee of Sri Swami Vishwananda who lives on the island of Mauritius. She has known Swamiji since He was a child. She had been having severe headaches and, also, feelings of giddiness in September and October 2010.

She went to the doctor who sent her to hospital. The doctors of the hospital diagnosed that a vein was broken and was bleeding inside her head. To repair this internal bleeding, the doctor said she would need surgery and if she didn’t have the surgery she could become paralyzed or even die suddenly. He advised her to go to South Africa to undergo the surgery.

Suniti’s sister called Swamiji’s aunty and explained to her what Suniti’s doctors had diagnosed and that surgery was advised. Swami was, at that time, in Kenya. His aunty called Swamiji in Kenya and told him all the story. Swamiji said “No, she has nothing. There is no need to go to Africa. It is nothing to worry about and it will disappear when left alone.”

After hearing this from the aunty, the sister called Sri Swami Vishwananda directly to ask if He was really sure. Swamiji told her “ Yes. She doesn’t need to go for surgery. Tell the doctor to let her free and the headache will disappear soon.”

As the doctor was insisting more and more, the family decided to try and collect the funds to send Suniti to Africa for surgery, but they could not afford the expenses for the flight to Africa and the surgery, so the Ministry of Health of Mauritius gave them financial assistance. Before they flew, Swamiji called Suniti’s sister at 4h AM before the flight to tell her not to take Suniti on the plane and that these expenses were not necessary. But the doctors insisted so much that she and Suniti flew to Durban to the hospital specializing in this type of surgery. There the doctors made an examination and diagnostic tests and saw that the bleeding had stopped and they said there was no need for an operation just as Sri Swami Vishwananda had foreseen.

Suniti went back home and has no more headaches.

Sri Swami Vishwananda's Healing Gift

Sri Swami Vishwananda, Beloved Master and Satguru, who is a direct disciple of Paramguru Mahavatar Kriya Babaji, who reintroduced it to the world, has given the Gift of the OM Healing Technique out of His Love for mankind.

From the mouths of babes or, rather, Indigo/Crystal Children participating in OM Healing Circles in Portugal we have the following:

"Hoje ficaram muitos meninos curados cá na terra e que a crise se vai resolver, isto (Om healing) é bom também para curar muita gente e a terra também."

Daniela, 8 anos de idade. Om Healing Entroncamento, Portugal. (15-01-2011)

"Today many children were healed here on Earth and the crisis will be solved. This (OM Healing Technique) is, also, good to heal many people and the Earth."

Daniela, 8 years old. Om Healing Entroncamento, Portugal (15-01-2011).

OM Healing is an ancient group healing technique that uses the cosmic vibration of OM for healing humanity and Mother Earth.

It comes from ancient times when mankind was more connected to a higher wisdom and living in harmony with the universe. The rishis (the ancient sages who are sources of the Vedic scriptures), used this powerful primordial vibration of OM to bring about healing to their fellowmen and balance to people and nature. We are all needed to create change, to help turn around the imbalances in our world, whether they are in ourselves, our families, our society or our environment.

Many healings have occurred associated with OM Healing Circles at Shree Peetha Nilaya and around the world, which are facilitated by OM Healing leaders with the blessing of Sri Swami Vishwananda. Come join the OM Healing Circle at Shree Peetha Nilaya before Sri Swami Vishwananda's next darshan 5th February (pre-registration required-registration @ bhaktimarga.org) or click on OM Healing above to find a circle near you.

To help heal Mother Earth, join Sri Swami Vishwananda's Bhu Devi Yagna (pre-registration required) 13, 14 15 May, 2011 at Sri Peetha Nilaya.

A story of Healing

through the grace of

Sri Swami Vishwananda

Healing from myositis ossifficans

The father of the child told this story the 15^th of January 2011. His son, called Haresh Burun, had his arm broken. The bone was not healing well and an abnormal growth could be seen on the arm. The doctor said surgery was required. The surgery was done, but a piece of the bone was still growing. The doctor said it was a disease called myositis ossifficans* and it could not be cured. The child’s arm was becoming bigger. The doctors said this abnormal growth would continue growing and that there was no remedy for this.

The parents, with their son, went to Sri Swami Vishwananda who put his hands on Haresh’s arm and made a prayer. After some time the parents went back to the doctor who checked the child’s arm and found that the growth had stopped completely to grow.

(story received from Pritalananda)

*myositis ossificans

[əsif′əkanz]

a rare inherited disease in which muscle tissue is replaced by bone. It begins in childhood, with stiffness in the neck and back, and progresses to rigidity of the spine, trunk, and limbs. The administration of diphosphonates1 may prevent the abnormal deposition of bone, but there is no cure after it has occurred. Metabolism of calcium and phosphate remains normal throughout the course of the disease.

SWAMI VISHWANANDA SEVA SOCIETY (KENYA)

‘‘Our vision is to serve the needy children, the less fortunate and to create a better environment for them.”

We are a group of volunteers based in Nairobi who have formed a Seva society. We believe that through love and selfless deeds we can make a difference and create a life changing moment for the less fortunate. We are committed to serving the less fortunate children by visiting homes in Nairobi and offering them with what we can such as Food, Wheelchairs etc. We endeavor to visit one home every month.

OUR RECENT SEVA WAS ON 25TH DECEMBER 2010

The Swami Viswahanda Seva Society volunteers arranged a seva day for the 25th December 2010 at Caroline Wambui Mungai Foundation. This is a foundation that was formed in the memory of Caroline. The foundation was established in December 2004 to rescue orphans and vulnerable children from poverty to destiny with love.

We wanted to celebrate Christmas day with the children. Christmas day is the day when Jesus was born. Celebrating Christmas is not just to attend to churches, Midnight masses or Bhajan singing, but it’s much deeper than that. This is the day when Jesus brought something new to the world, which is forgiveness, Compassion and Love. There are many Avatars, saints and prophets who have taught and brought Love to people, but Jesus brought Love and forgiveness. This is the day when you pray to remind yourself of the forgiveness by firstly forgiving yourself for whatever you have done wrong followed by forgiving others who have wronged you.

It’s not about God forgiving you, but it’s about forgiving yourself first. And after that, focus on the Love that you carry inside of you. This is day when he is born inside each one of us. And this rebirth should not only be there during Christmas time but should be there all the time. He is born continuously in each cell of your body to remind us all of the love, compassion and forgiveness - Sri Swami Vishwananda
