The Indigo Evolution [Video]

Indigo Children [Gallery]

Indigo Children is a term to describe the new wave of children being born into the world who are already very developed and mature, naturally have a greater sense of compassion, intuition, emotional intelligence and understanding of the world as one human family. Their two main traits are greater sensitivity and self awareness. Here are a selection of pictures to celebrate this new wave of remarkable children who are destined to become the leaders of tomorrow's world:

Time Travel & Creativity

Please understand that everything we think, say and do is recorded into the fabric of space-time by the Universal Tape Recorder which stores this information forever. The information is stored in a particular location (longitude and latitude) at a particular point in time. The Universe has an unlimited amount of storage space too to store all this information.

Sometimes when people are sitting down and they have a moment of genius, a light bulb moment, often this is because they are sitting in a spot where there is a lot of stored information from the past and because they are meditative they are picking up the data through the intuition or pituitary gland. The information includes thoughts, conversations, feelings and actions done by people in the past in that exact location.

If you know how, you can access all these thoughts, conversations, feelings and actions just as simply as rewinding and playing a tape recorder. It requires one to meditate and listen deeply through the inner ear which is infinitely more sensitive than the physical ears and can pick up information from the past, present and future. If you just listen deeply you can hear and see all those conversations. Cool hey? It's a bit like time travelling.

Therefore, for all intents and purposes do not think negatively, do not speak negatively and do not do negative actions otherwise they will be stored in history and you will be held to account for them. As crafty as some people like to be, they cannot get away from the universe storing the truth on its tape recorder - and the truth has a funny tendency of coming out sooner or later right?

The past is a great source of creativity to tap into through meditation because the chances are that everything that can be thought of has been thought of at some point in history by somebody. The Universe works on basic principles, and so rarely is an idea ever totally fresh, it's usually just another way of looking at or expressing an existing idea.

Creativity can therefore be perceived as not creating something new from the ground up, but instead reusing something existing in a new way.

Sat Naam.

P.S. This is an advanced topic and this article contains many gems and truths which can only really be understood and realised through an experience of activating the inner ear which hears all of time.

Time Follows Your Orders

Time follows your orders. When you say 'I don't have enough time' or 'time is too short' then time must obey your orders. Time is a being. In Sanskrit time is given the name Kal, and Kal can speak and comment on the events of the past, present and the future yet to come.

Time is bound to a human being's orders, and all other beings with consciousness. So when we say 'time is going fast', we are causing it to go fast and when we say 'time is going slow' we are causing it to go slow.

A human being often becomes a victim to their own orders and then blames time. When humans are stressed they begin to feel an urgency to do things, they panic and in their panic they say, think and feel things like 'there's no time' or 'time is running out'. Time or Kal then obeys these orders, creating a destructive loop of increasing stress and reducing time.

Therefore, whenever possible, be aware of what you order time to do or not do and it will obey your orders, your thoughts and your feelings. Remain self-aware and make Kal your friend.

Want an Enlightenment Experience? [Video by Yogiraj Siddhanath Gurunath]

I first went to see Master Yogiraj Siddhanath Gurunath when I was 18 years old. At the time I was studying at Aston University in Birmingham, and had just been watching a few videos on YouTube of him when curiosity made me check out the Hamsa Yoga website. Miraculously enough he was visiting Birmingham the very next week! Can you believe it? I was over the moon! It was one of those WOW moments when destiny becomes crystal clear. I vividly remember it being a Thursday, the same day I used to do a Kundalini Yoga class. In fact, the exact date was Thursday 14th of June 2007 (thanks to Gmail). So I text my yoga teacher to ask permission to see if I could go to this event instead and she text back with the simple words "Follow your intuition. Sat Nam". And so I did, and went along, knowing it to be a part of my destiny.

I was intrigued by what the master said he could do, and indeed what all masters are able to do:

1. Shivapat - Sharing his Enlightened Consciousness of thoughtless awareness
2. Shaktipat - Transmitting center to center in the disciple’s Chakras the Kundalini Energy which burns their negative karmas
3. Pranapat - Breathing his spiritual Prana (life-force) through the breath of the disciples in their spinal cord flushing out all toxins & emotional stress.

So I went with the sole purpose of experiencing these transmissions from the master.

I went away that day, after also having the chance to eat opposite the master in a restaurant after the event, experiencing all of those graces of the master and getting a direct initiation into Kriya Yoga by Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath himself.

I left that evening with a much wider heart, a much wider mind, an experience of a still mind state and an experience of enlightenment. I went back to see the master many times at different retreats, but I'll save those enchanting and more miraculous stories for another day.

Now for the real deal, experience what I experienced that day for yourself. Drop your mind, drop your doubts, drop your thoughts, drop your scepticism, open your heart, feel love for the master, connect to the master's heart, trust the master, look at him with eyes of love and you will be well on your way to an unforgettable experience...

Sat Nam...

After watching the following video, it brought all those wonderful memories back of the first time I got to see him. The time and grace I enjoyed with this very rare master whom I believe I am related to from previous lives.

Ego vs Humility

Some people are so EGOTISTICAL that they think they're humble. For me this is the most annoying type of human being which I wouldn't mind slapping around a little.

Somebody who thinks they know humility, and pretends to act all humble, when under the surface there is clearly shit hitting the fan, an over cleverness and an over righteous attitude.

Being humble is a very sacred state between an individual and the Guru, the Universe and God. Humility is in not caring what other people think, being compassionately truthful and totally AUTHENTIC. Authenticity lacks in an egomaniac. There is just an image which must be protected, an idealism, a pompous over-perfection. It really makes my blood boil sometimes! :@

A humble person is straight up, says it how it is, and yet is not doing it out of anger but instead out of integrity and truth. A humble person radiates total respect for the other, has authentic sweetness and compassion for all. Again that buzz word: authentic which can be defined as what you see is what you get.

Egotistical people like to bullshit often, sweet talk just to play games, and have an idea that they have a reputation to protect. I personally don't buy it and don't indulge in it myself. The truth is sometimes sharp and politically incorrect, but I prefer it over living a lie and covering up everything just to look good in front of people.

So there we have it - a not so comprehensive introduction to humility vs ego - but I hope you got the flavour ;)

Love,

J.

P.S. This blog post is intentionally written in a VERY provoking style to get across the idea of "not caring what other people think". In reality what other people think is also very important, and should be balanced against the idea of not caring what people think (a complimentary contradiction in terms which shall be explained in a later article on this fascinating subject)

Quote of the Day - Reactions

‎"Never be right or wrong, always be neutral. Speak not through the positive mind or the negative mind, but from the neutral mind. And whenever you have to confront a calamity or a pleasure, take the altitude. Adjust the attitude. Do not react right away." 

Yogi Bhajan - 7/22/96

Vision of New Life Awakening

I have an intense feeling inside which relates to my life's vision and mission.

My primary rule in life is to never compromise who I am for anybody or anything. When a flower is in bloom who can tell it to be or smell any other way?

My mission in life is to bring spirituality to the common person, make it accessible, understandable and practical. Even whilst we are living in a highly technological, global and complex world - still spirituality must become our bedrock, our foundation, our grace because it is who we really are. It's what allows us to access our humanity.

As a result I'm going to create as many articles, books, workshops and videos to bring spirituality to the people in a form which can be used for hundreds of years to come. Well, to be honest, this is not a one man mission, but requires a whole team of like-minded people to come together and convert these old manuscripts of ancient wisdom into practical manuals for modern life, which can then be passed onto future generations.

The best thing is that, for the first time in billions of years, history will record these manuals and the process to create these manuals for all time to come. My name is unimportant. My personality is unimportant. All that matters is sharing these teachings purely. For when truth is spoken, it shines of its own accord and is recognised in value only by those who are seeking it and are open to receiving it.

Surely all that's worth the sacrifice of one human life, or for that matter, a few? ;)

With all my love and deep felt gratitude to you,
