The Unveiling Dance

My Journey into Turiyatita and Kundalini Awakening

Amid the delicate balance of the manifest and the unmanifest, my soul stumbled upon the ethereal doorway to Turiyatita on a serene afternoon of December 14, 2019. Turiyatita, a whisper in the cosmos resonating with the enigmatic essence of nondual suchness, unfurled before me as my passport to the indescribable singularity of absolute being. This mystic voyage was both celestial and grounding, marked by a full-blown Kundalini awakening—a cosmic dance entwined through the silken threads of my physical, subtle, and causal body. As a peculiar paralysis caressed my earthly vessel, each twitch and shiver seemed to echo the ageless wisdom that sages sought through millennia.

With every ostensibly involuntary movement, I felt as if I were wading through the boundless choreography of human expression. Every asana, pranayama, and mudra, both known and unknown, found expression through the vessel of my being, weaving into a grand tapestry of divine play. Each movement transcended the ‘I’, echoing the boundless cosmos, resonating with every action and stance ever taken by any being across the sands of time. The dance crescendoed into a majestic pose embodying the essence of yoga—a pose that seemed to encompass all poses, every action, event, and the ceaseless flow of the universe folding into a singular point of profound stillness.

This stillness was a revelation unlike any other. It was a palpable melding with the physical realm, seamlessly extending into the subtle and the causal. Unlike my previous sojourns into the nondual reality, where the concept of self dissolved into the vast expanse of existence, this voyage felt more grounded, more material, yet soared beyond the material realm’s enigmatic boundaries.

The seeds of this monumental experience were sown much earlier, precisely in the spring of 2003. My voyage was tenderly cradled through the sacred rituals of Ayahuasca under the nurturing guidance of a Shaman, the boundless realms unveiled through 5meo DMT, N N DMT sessions, and other entheogenic encounters. The countless hours of daily sessions of high-tech meditation of Holosync, eventually blossoming into Yinnergy which I had designed and created in 2010, became a part of my daily repertoire, along with neurofeedback training. The turning point arose in 2018 when the fiery serpent of Kundalini uncoiled fully within me, heralding the profound occurrences that would unfold a year later.

The final catalyst was the divine darshan I was blessed with from the enlightened master, Paramahamsa Vishwananda in September 2019. The grace of the guru catapulted me into a deep nondual peak experience, paving the ethereal path to that transformative afternoon in December. Life, as I knew it, pirouetted to a new rhythm, a rhythm resonating with the heartbeats of the cosmos. The veil of Maya lifted, revealing a dance—a dance of divine ecstasy, an unending journey into the heart of existence.

The memories of the celestial dance still linger, softly nudging me toward the unseen, unheard, and unspoken realms awaiting exploration. Much more beckons to be said about that day, yet the profoundest of its essence may never find the veil of verbiage.

A Spiritual Journey with Paramahamsa Vishwananda

Ever since September 3rd, 2019, there has been one figure that repeatedly stands out in my memories, the guiding light that has transformed my life – Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda.

The journey began at Trinity St. Paul’s in Toronto. On that fateful day, I was fortunate enough to receive darshan from him. For those unfamiliar with this term, darshan is the divine sight – a soul-touching blessing one receives from a spiritually enlightened guru. It’s a deeply personal and transformative moment, where one locks eyes with the guru and dives into an ocean of spiritual energy.

Only a few months after this momentous encounter, in November, I experienced a profound nondual spiritual awakening. This spiritual crescendo further intensified in December when I submerged into a state known as Nirvikalpa Samadhi. This was not just any awakening; it was the death of the ego, a realization of my own Supreme Identity, connecting me to all of existence and beyond.

The reverberations of this awakening persisted. Shortly after, I was swept into a whirlwind of a full kundalini awakening. It was as if every chakra within me came alive, culminating with my crown chakra which unleashed a cascade of radiant lotus petals made out of pure light. To say this was monumental would be an understatement; it was an experience that etched itself deep into my soul.

However, the universe, as always, had its plans. The following year, as the world found itself grappling with a pandemic, physical interactions became a luxury. Undeterred, I, along with several fellow seekers, virtually sought the darshan of Paramahamsa Vishwananda.

Yet, the universe has its rhythm and the circle turned full once again. As the pandemic ebbed, last September, Paramahamsa Vishwananda graced Toronto with his presence. We were fortunate enough to bask in his divine presence, in person. My recent memories bring me to August 26th and then again on September 2nd when a smaller group of us made our way to Elmira, New York, to the serene premises of the Paranitya Narasimha Temple. It was here, in the sacred surroundings, that we received the darshan from Paramahamsa Vishwananda. The gleam in his eyes when he recognized me, the warmth of his smile, and our brief yet impactful conversation – these are memories I cherish. His gratitude towards us for travelling so far was heartwarming. But all I could do was thank him, for the transformation he triggered within me, for allowing me to see myself for who I truly am. It remains the most cherished gift I have ever received.

My spiritual voyage with Paramahamsa Vishwananda is one of love, awakening, and profound transformation. A journey that I hope continues, leading me to further depths and heights of spiritual realizations.

The Multiverse Within

Exploring Chakras Beyond Our Perception

In the rich tapestry of Eastern philosophy and spirituality, the concept of chakras and kundalini awakening has long captivated the Western world. But a deeper, more expansive understanding of these ideas prompts us to transcend the traditional seven chakras in the human body and see them permeating the universe at every level – from the massive galaxies to the tiniest sub-atomic particles.

This perspective’s core is the belief that chakras are not exclusive to the gross or subtle human body. They are ubiquitous and omnipresent, extending their influence to every cell, every molecule, every atom, and even to the most infinitesimal particles. Just like each human has energy centers, these minuscule entities – bodies in their own right – are also believed to possess chakras.

This viewpoint is a confluence of spirituality and quantum physics. It suggests a microcosm-macrocosm principle where the patterns of the universe repeat themselves at different scales, connecting everything from the vastness of the cosmos to the smallest particles.

During a full-blown kundalini awakening, a transformative spiritual experience often depicted as the release of divine energy stored at the base of the spine, it is proposed that not only the individual’s chakras but also these infinitesimal chakras, in each ‘body’ within our physical body, come to life. It is a grand unison of consciousness awakening at all levels of existence, interconnecting every particle within and beyond us.

In such a profound event, each ‘body’, from cellular to atomic and sub-atomic levels, reaches a state of self-realization, comprehending that it is part of the ‘Brahman,’ the ultimate reality or absolute in Hindu philosophy. This concept equates to ‘The Ground of all Being,’ a term that mystics and spiritual teachers use to describe the deepest level of reality.

This fascinating belief presents an interconnected universe where the microcosm and macrocosm continually interact, affecting and reflecting each other. A place where every entity, regardless of size or subtlety, is a unique expression of the same energy, bound by a common cosmic rhythm and linked through an intricate network of chakras.

In conclusion, the belief in a kundalini awakening of not just the seven primary chakras, but countless others within every atom and sub-atomic particle, invites us to broaden our perception of reality. This concept urges us to look beyond the boundaries of our current understanding and explore the uncharted territories of consciousness that might hold the key to our oneness with the universe. It is a philosophy that doesn’t merely expand our knowledge of self and the universe; it transforms it.

Blossoming into Cosmic Consciousness

A Personal Experience of Full-blown Kundalini Awakening

A profound transformation occurred to me; an experience that transcended the physical plane and plunged me into a realm of existence I had hitherto deemed unreachable. I speak of the full-blown Kundalini awakening, a spiritual phenomenon that has left an indelible impression on my perception of self, reality, and existence.

Before this awakening, I, like many, thought of the lotus flowers depicted in relation to chakras as mere metaphors, abstract symbols of our energetic being. My paradigm shifted dramatically during the awakening, as I watched these blossoms emerge not just from the ether of abstraction but from the essence of my being itself. The petals of the lotus, conceived in metaphor, came to life in a splendid display of existential alchemy. They sprouted out of every pore, every cell, every molecule, every atom, and every particle that constituted my physical form.

Witnessing my crown chakra in full bloom was an event of divine beauty and overwhelming serenity. Imagine trillions upon trillions of petals composed of pure, radiant light pouring forth from the crown of my head. Each petal was a drop of divinity, embodying the wisdom and tranquillity of the cosmos. They cascaded downwards, gently brushing against the contours of my being before making contact with the ground. On meeting the earthly plane, they evaporated, leaving behind an aura of sublime light.

This awakening of my Kundalini has redefined my perception of existence, opening me up to a deeper understanding of the universe’s complex weave. It isn’t an experience that can be perfectly conveyed through the limited lexicon of human language. The essence of it transcends verbal expression, rooting itself in the experiential. However, as I try to share this transformative chapter of my life, I find the metaphor of the lotus more than apt—it is a vivid illustration of the incredible unfolding that happens within the human spirit during such profound awakenings.

It is in this exploration of the lotus of self, through the lens of Kundalini awakening, that one realizes the true potential of human consciousness. The journey towards this awakening is not just one of self-realization but also one of cosmic understanding. It has led me to see that we are all integral parts of the cosmic tapestry, woven from the same thread of consciousness, each of us a lotus, awaiting our moment of divine unfolding.

Exploring Consciousness

Expanding Consciousness through Yoga & Meditation Practices

Yoga and meditation present an array of practices that facilitate the exploration of diverse states of consciousness, enhancing individuals’ mindfulness and self-awareness. This blog is dedicated to examining multiple practices associated with gross, subtle, causal, turiya, and turiyatita states of consciousness, illustrating the intertwined nature of these practices in guiding practitioners toward multiple states of awareness.

Gross Consciousness: Exploring the Physical Dimension

The gross state of consciousness, typically associated with waking life, is distinguished by physical and sensory experiences. Practices that emphasize the gross state involve:

Hatha Yoga: With a focus on physical postures (asanas), breath regulation (pranayama), and meditation, this practice supports overall physical and mental health.
Vinyasa Yoga: Offering a dynamic fusion of movement and breath, this style of yoga aids practitioners in maintaining mindfulness and presence.

Subtle Consciousness: Journeying into Dreams & Emotions

The dream state, characterized by emotional and mental experiences, reflects the subtle state of consciousness. Techniques concentrating on the subtle state include:

Yoga Nidra: This guided meditation facilitates a state of deep relaxation, mirroring the dream state, and fostering increased awareness.
Lucid Dreaming: This practice involves consciously recognizing that you’re dreaming, providing an opportunity to delve into the subconscious mind.

Causal Consciousness: Merging with the Universal Source

The deep sleep state, denoted by unity and an absence of individual identity, resonates with the causal state of consciousness. Techniques accessing the causal state include:

Advaita Vedanta: This non-dual philosophy promotes self-inquiry and contemplation, guiding toward the realization of the ultimate reality beyond individual identity.
Shambhavi Mudra: This meditative technique, focusing on the “third eye” or the space between the eyebrows, cultivates internal tranquillity and unlocks the causal state.

Turiya: The Realm of Pure Consciousness

Turiya, the fourth state, is marked by pure consciousness beyond the states of waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. Practices aiming for turiya encompass:

Transcendental Meditation (TM): Utilizing mantras, this meditation technique aims to transcend mental activities and experience pure consciousness.
Dzogchen/Mahamudra: These Tibetan Buddhist practices emphasize direct recognition of the mind’s nature, leading to a non-dual experience of reality.

Turiyatita: Surpassing Boundaries and Embracing Integration

Turiyatita, transcending the fourth state, symbolizes the amalgamation of all consciousness states. Techniques fostering turiyatita are:

Sahaja Yoga: Centered on the spontaneous awakening of Kundalini energy, this practice leads to a thoughtless awareness state surpassing all other states.
Jnana Yoga: The path of wisdom and self-inquiry dissolves the perceived separation between the individual self and ultimate reality, leading to the turiyatita experience.

Conclusion: Embarking on Your Unique Path

Every individual’s journey to elevated states of consciousness is distinctive. Discovering practices that align with your personal growth and self-exploration is crucial. As you delve into diverse yoga and meditation techniques, maintain an open mindset that your path may comprise various practices and experiences. Cherish the transformative journey and the profound power these age-old disciplines offer.
