Dhyanalingam - A Miracle

- Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev

            

                             Dhyanalingam is a tremendous miracle. When I say a miracle, I am not talking about all those silly things that normally people consider as miracles. Producing material objects, producing this for that, meddling with the process of life. For me, the greatest miracles is, if you live your life to its totality, if you can live here knowing all the dimensions of life, if you can go through this life free from greed, fear, hatred, if you can go through this life untouched, if you can play with life whichever way you want, still life cannot do anything to you, life does not leave any scars on you. That is the miracle that I am always looking for. That is the miracle that we are working to manifest in everybody’s life in so many ways. That is the miracle of Sahaja Sthithi Yoga also. If a person does not realize the miracle that he himself is, the miracle that life is, the miracle that holds you on this planet, the miracle that makes you die, the miracle that makes you be born once again – if a person does not understand this, if a person does not experience this, such a fool will go about seeking these silly miracles or the so called miracles of transforming this into something else, something else into something else. Fundamentally meddling with life. Fundamentally meddling with the process of life. If you have tasted life, if you have known life, if you have experienced life in some sense of depth to it you will know that meddling with it is the most foolish thing to do because you cannot make it anymore beautiful than it already is. The only thing you can do is, allow yourself to experience the beauty of life. Allow yourself to experience the grandeur of life. Anything else you do with it is bound to be a stupid act. From your limited sense of understanding, whatever else you do, whatever else drives you to do whatever you do with your life is a very immature and juvenile act.

So, Dhyanalingam, I call it a miracle because this is a possibility. The sphere of Dhyanalingam, the energy of Dhyanalingam creates a possibility for every human being that comes in contact with this, either actually in its vicinity or just in his consciousness, if he is just willing, if he is just willing to open himself up, it will be available to him, it will become a possibility for him to know life in its utmost depth, to experience life in its totality. I am …I don’t know, if I say happy, if I say ecstatic, if I say whatever, to present this to the world, to offer this to the world, whatever word I use will be improper. But, in a way I am relieved that it is done. This is not my will; this was my Guru’s will that this must happen. These three lifetimes have been spent towards fulfilling this, with so many people’s love, support and understanding, above all, the Grace of the Guru. Today it has happened. I just feel empty today. I cannot say I am happy, I cannot say I am fulfilled, I cannot say anything. All I know is, I am absolutely empty today. It has been so since the consecration day because suddenly the very purpose of my life is lost.

I think we need to bring some understanding of the science behind the Dhyanalingam. This whole aspect of what we call as Shiva and Shakthi is about the duality of life. When you live here in your sense perception, through your senses when you experience life, the whole life, the whole experience of life is in a certain duality. It is this duality, which is traditionally personified as Shiva and Shakthi.

In Yoga, we call this Ida and Pingala. In the far eastern cultures they call it yin and yang. Or you can simply call it masculine and feminine or it can be the logical and the intuitive aspect of you. The two dimensions which make you and the world around you. It is based on this that all religious sciences have grown. It is based on this that life is created that without these two dualities life does not exist as it does right now. In the beginning everything is primordial, there is no duality, but once creation happens there is a duality. It is to experience this duality, it is to limit you to this duality that the sense organs have come.
