By having the pure desire, we can become one with the Divine. Keep trying is the message, do not give up. If you experience it for just a few seconds, keep practicing, be persistent and it will come to us naturally because we have the pure desire.

Lots of love always.

Dear Mani, I will try and answer to you… “thoughtless awareness” is not the same with “thoughtless” or when we feel that we are “lost” with words or thoughts.. Actually it is a profound state of awareness.. we do not lose control of anything, of any of our senses …actually these senses become sharper than even… and the creativity and inspiration (as “answers” ) come & flow. One can talk for hours with no thought but in complete oneness with the audience, feeling the questions that are in the air and addressing them without thinking of them .. because when one reaches the “thoughtless awareness”, one has access to the Source (of knowledge included ). Plus it is a state when one is in meditation state so not just in an emptiness kind of state.. The difference with sahaja yoga meditation is that while the thoughts are “gone”, Kundalini uses the “vacant space” thus created in the Agnya chakra to come with more force and open the next/7th chakra (Sahasrara chakra). Then through this Open Sahasrara chakra, the bliss/pure energy of life/blessings (this is known under a variety of names ) can enter inside the Agnya chakra and enlighten the brain. Newton, Einstein and so many other scientist had the courage to say that their main discoveries came from “unknown” and they weren’t a “logical”/procedural discovery. Yes, the attention was “there” and a lot of effort was made to reach “somewhere”, but the “solution” just “came”. One university student that is practising sahaja yoga for a couple of years in Toronto, was telling me that what convinced her about the power of Sahaja Yoga Meditation was when her father (who was much deeper into it) had advised her to take 15 min and meditate before working on projects. In a very similar situation with yours, she had to write an essay and she had absolutely no inspiration and she really had to do it and in a very brilliant manner .. so she was stuck. Then her dad told her:”just meditate a bit, make sure you reach the state of meditation and then try again..”. Which she did. After meditation the creativity was flowing, she finished everything and had a great mark on that essay… ever since she had experimented the “practical benefits” of sahaja yoga meditation she’s into it .. she was discussing with my daughter on this while we travelled to Welland last year at the invitation of the Katimavik group there to offer them a Workshop class & workshop .. and Vera (that’s our student’s name) had shared with them that story as most of them were only few years younger than her… Hope it helped. So make sure that you “really meditate” and not just empty your mind forcibly .. working also on the centre Heart chakra might improve your self-confidence and you’ll not get lost (with words or thoughts) so easily.. Actually if you re-read carefully the article, the best answers are in there. I simply tried to give you some examples from ‘real life’ that show that ‘it works’. Wishing you all the best!

Nicely said…. “by doers” you mean removing the ego which was artificially put there in the first place…. we are already healed… we just need to “Self-realize”… so that we can remove the “blocks”… “the illusions”.

This “thoughtless awareness” state is the crux of the matter. Unfortunately, education insists upon “thinking & analyzing” and so we have to unlearn to do this and allow ourselves to just witness the “truth as it is”. That’s the reason why children and simple folks achieve this state more easily. However, it is not difficult to for anyone to achieve this, inspite of education, if we are ready to give up this habit and thus develope our pure intelligence which tells us where our redemption lies. We have to forget that we are the doers and that we are only the instruments through which the Divine works.
