I am I : The Only Observer
Posted in Kriya Yoga
Sex of the Divine is a State of Complete Relaxation and Intoxication
![]()
Sex of the body satisfies the senses, mind and the ego in you, while the sex of the divine vanishes the senses, mind and ego in you.It is the sweetest thing that can ever happen to you. Its a state of Oneness that is completely relaxed, blissful , ever healed and full.
Sex of the divine satisfies all the deep and often hidden emotional and psychological needs/desires of the seeker, accumulated over many births. It exposes you to your real Self AS IT IS, which is without any wanting, longing or hurt!
In this sacred act there is no object, no image and no form. All that IS, is the pure feeling engulfing your entire being. In this feeling the observer and object have lost there identities.
Sex of the Divine is a state of utter INTOXICATION and ONENESS within and without! This state is ever with you, only you are not aware of it!
AUM AUM AUM!
Self is like a stone by the river Ganges (eternal river of energy)
Self is like a stone by the river Ganges
![]()
We are similar to stones lying along the river Ganges. The great river of energy, which only knows to flow, flow and flow. And in its flow, the river creates , sustains and destroys various waves, which are nothing but its manifestation. The waves of the river create the physical and sub-conscious worlds that we live in as humans. The manifestations in this river of energy changes form and name as often and as easily as you can blink your eye lid.
In a flash pure becomes impure, a righteous person becomes devilish, in a flash Masters and Gods appear and disappear. In a flash water vanishes into ether, in a flash fire appears from the ether and consumes all matter. Energy only changes forms and names, but remains as what it is.
Their is no permanence in these manifestation of the energy. Human body, intellect, mind, thoughts and desires are also part of this great river. And as they are manifestations of the river, they also have no permanence. A body which has taken birth, grows and then decays. So also is the flow of the mind, which originates from nowhere in form of a idea or thought, fully attracts the observers attention for some time and then vanishes in to some thing. Our thoughts are the waves of the mind, which flows continuously. They can’t be stopped, for their nature is to flow.
The only thing which is not a manifestation of the eternal river of energy is the observer in you. The observer is not part of the river. It cannot be. For if it was part the river then, its nature should also be to flow continuously. Weather your parents die, you loose a well payed job or your partner leaves you. Why should you feel sad, why don’t you say ” I have had enough time with my parents now, its time to part ways”.
In the world of flow the observer is constantly seeking permanence.
The feeling of permanence is intrinsic to the SELF. It is the very nature of the STONE, which is lying by the river Ganges. When the stone identifies with the river or its waves , it almost instantly becomes the water of the river or the manifested. And as manifested it follows certain laws i.e. of birth,growth and death. At First, the stone ( observer) enjoys to be the water and its nature of flow. But even in the experience of being the manifested and being the flow, it searches for permanency. Permanency of happiness, permanency of form, names, permanency of pleasure, permanency of relationships, permanency of concepts and belief systems.
Every time a wave ( of form and name) arises in this river of energy, the observer feels that this wave could be the one the observer is searching for. This wave could take the form of your lover , whom you never meet. This wave could be in the form of a Guru whom you have been always waiting for. These waves arise for the observer all the time and every time, until it identifies its self with water of the river.
When the observer is totally dejected and anguished in its search for permanency in a ever changing world. In a flash some thing happens. The Observer sees its self AS IT IS . It realizes that its not the water of the river, but a stone lying by the banks of the the river.
This stone never moves, its totally different from water, it has no journey, it never had a start or destination, it does not have to seek any thing, for IT IS. In fact even when it thought that it was the water of the river, it sort only ITSELF (the permanence aspect).
Our SELF never moves or changes, it is the only thing that is permanent!
WHAT IS!
Aum Babaji, Jai Maa

On the road to enlightenment the seeker has to be Naked!
Living in illusion or awakened in reality ?
The only difference between a realized being and a being living in illusion, is that a realized being is no longer seeking any thing. His or her heart is FULL, just like some one with a filled up stomach. A person with filled up stomach is quite, calm and doesn’t crave any thing more. He is complete. He is IT, he is THAT!
While a being in illusion may seem to be enjoying every moment of his or her role on this plane, but from within he or she is constantly seeking some thing, which is missing, which he or she is aware of but does not know were to find or how to find.
Beings in illusion try their best to be the role they are playing. Infant they are so much identified and attached with the roles, that they become the character themselves. So, if the character they are playing has to suffer they also suffer, or if the character has to enjoy the senses then they also are drunk with enjoyment.
Beings (in illusion) try to fulfill their longing with the things of this world. So either they take up material things to extreme or take up a religion and a Guru to extreme. But even after all this, the being suffers constantly and weeps during hours of seclusion and night.
Their is nothing wrong in following any religion to extreme or having a Guru. But by sticking to the outer religion or the Guru he or she may not be able to quench the thirst for completeness and wholeness.
While a realized being is aware that IT is the start and end of the search. That all he was searching for was nothing but his or her’s awakened SELF. When such a realization dawns , then the being can play their earthy roles with greater clarity and at the same time enjoy ITS own nature, which is every new, ever fresh and ever awakened.
Let us be what we ARE!
AUM TAT SAT!

Awakening of Kundalini: When Shakti reveals higher secrets of creation
![]()
In the neighborhood of Masters as One sits engrossed in the eternal fire of Shakti. One sees various forms and figures, feel various emotions and sounds, watches the intellect of the cosmic mind, And yet the One is indifferent to any. For the One all actions, movements, flow and Kriya belong to fire of the Shakti.
In this state, One observers that each thought, feeling, sensation and form arising, sustaining and ending in the One, corresponds to the various flames of the fire of Shakti. Not only does all these sensations, feelings, thoughts and forms correspond to the various flames of the fire of Shakti, but they are nothing but the flames of fire of Shakti itself.
In fact, it is the flames of the fire of Shakti which is and has become every thing in this universe. The one source which manifests as many.
During such intense periods around the sacred fire, Shakti takes the form of a aroused serpent, similar to the position of the snake around Lord Shiva’s neck. The serpent is centered at the base of the spine and raises its hood to the level of the third eye. The arousal of the serpent is the indication that Shakti or Kundalini is her self willing to reveal the higher secrets of the creation to the One.
In the neighborhood of Masters, the One is nothing but the SELF!
In the neigbourhood of Masters!
Jau Maa, Jai Babaji
Navratri:May the eternal fire of shakti consume you completely
![]()
As One is born in the neighborhood of Masters. One sits unmoved watching the eternal fire of Shakti in a circle -like shaped group of celestial beings who are engrossed in vedic chants which flow from all directions. The lure of the holy fire seamlessly melts the five elements that were glued to the Self for long.
All the while you thought that these elements were yours , you even thought that these were you! But now they almost effortlessly melt and flow towards their source, the fire. These elements originate from the fire of Shakti and evaporate in it.
As the purification process intensifies, the seemingly compassionate fire grows to astonishing scale and in its glorious flames even the observer is consumed.
What might remain then is nothingness…….which is what we are!
May the fire of Shakti consume you completely!
Jai Maa, Jai Babaji
Navratri: May you be born in the neighbourhood of Celestial Masters

![]()
During the holy period of Navaratri ( night days and nights dedicated to the Divine Mother ), Mahavatar Babaji and group of celestial beings can be seen, felt and heard sitting around the eternal fire of Shakti. During this period, at the earnest plea of the seeker the Celestial Master , one by one offers the attachments of the seeker (with his or her image/role on earth) into the holy fire, so the seeker may be born in the neighborhood of Masters.
Being born in the neighborhood of Celestial Masters is nothing, but awakening in the SELF, our eternal and indestructible nature. The ONE which IS.
AUM , AUM , AUM!

The worship of Divine Mother as Kali
![]()
The worship of divine mother as Kali opens the doors of the soul to the infinite almost instantly. The worship of Kali is the acceptance that the good, bad and ugly energies of this creation come from one source, are manifested in the One and also merger in to the One. The day the ego fully accepts this truth, all the knowledge and awareness of the ego will be lost into the infinite ocean of bliss and Oneness.
Jai Maa, Aum Babaji!

Baba ji Speaks “Come out children, come out! For the Self is all Alone”
“Come Out Children, Come out. For the Self is all alone”

Mahavatar Babaji is Completeness (Purna) Itself!
Ever since the transformation in this body, we have been traveling and sharing the love of the Self with receptive souls. What we are sharing can’t be framed into a path, guru, tradition, religion or sect, for we are sharing the knowledge of the Self, which is All, which is Complete and which is Full. Duality and non-duality, guru-disciple, love-hatred, still -restless, control -freedom, happiness- sadness, desires – desirelesnes, sinner- saint, mind and no-mind exist and yet they have very little meaning in terms of our true nature and identity. For the Self is indescribable, incomprehensible and unknowable by the instruments of this world.
The real Self is essentially a Feeling. A Feeling not of senses or a mental state but the indestructible Feeling centered in the inner invisible heart. This Feeling resides in all beings of this creation, and yet it’s also the best kept secret and mystery.
It seems difficult to share and comprehend such a Feeling with the limited instruments of senses, mind and intellect. Let alone to share such a Feeling through certain patterns of search, exercise, philosophy and techniques. Normally it’s the readiness and unceasing call of the recipient soul, which aids in the ‘uncovering’ of this unknowable knowledge. This uncovering happens from the Self and to the Self, some time intuitively and some times abruptly. We (physical forms of teacher, guru, guide, friends, parents) are images, which act as a catalyst for the uncovering at various levels. Although physical forms and names are images and part of the dream -state, they are nevertheless part of the Self, as the Self is All.
Mahavatar Babaji’s Council to his Children
Since early childhood, Mahavatar Babaji had been attracting me in many unseen and unrecognizable ways. My long duration of soul cry locked in a hidden room, were not unheard and unnoticed by the immortal Master. The cry for freedom, for happiness, for perfection, for things that could satisfy me, for the suffering in the society and the fate of humanity. What I could not see at that time was how subtly, Babaji was guiding my entire search at various junctures of life. Deep impressions of finding Lord Shiva by tracing the origin of Ganges through its physical route, Babaji’s magic wand touch during a pilgrimage to Sabarimala Temple in Kerela, Yogannandaji’s influence in our early family life, guidance and initiation from Masters of various traditions, Lahiri Mahasaya’s friendship, Mataji’s constant companionship and the appearance and initiation by the lord himself ( Mahavatar Babaji).
Babaji has revealed himself to me in various forms, shapes and names. The oneness of Babaji is the oneness of our being. Oneness, which radiates all the colors of the creation, and yet is colorless its self. Every master, religion, path, technique comes from Babaji, it is Babaji and vanishes in the un-manifested Babaji.
For his dear children who can’t see the formless reality, Babaji has taken up a simple form and name ( In India there might be more than a couple of million persons with the name, Babaji). Initially, he visits the child in the specified form, and at the destined time (when the child is spiritually ripe) he unveils his glorious formless form.
Once, I asked Babaji, about the seeming stress to promote Kriya (Kriya means action, there are numerous kriya’s know and unknown to men, which effectively aid in self-realization) in relation to other mediation techniques. He smilingly pointed to small size black color box which lay next to him, and said “Child, all mediation, contemplation and yoga techniques come from my toolbox, never get attached to any. Kriya was revived through Lahiri as it was lost on earthly plane”. Saying this he initiated me into various unknown techniques. The Purna (complete) wisdom and love of Babaji is central to our message. It’s the foundation and the understanding with which we share insights and techniques.
How can i put this message across to millions of faithful Kriya practitioners, who adore Babaji essentially from a Kriya lineage? How can I share, the completeness of Babaji and this message with Kriya practitioners, who have identified more with the techniques, than the essence of Babaji? With these questions I fervently, prayed to Babaji. For days, there was no answer. I thought may be Babaji doesn’t want me to interfere in this matter or he is suggesting me to follow the organic pattern of things, and let time reveal how, where and what. I let this question slip through my mind and shifted attention inward.
One night while sleeping, I witnessed a strange dream. In the dream some one was asking me to “come out, come out”. On waking, I saw the watch and it was time for meditation. As I sat in silence, I observed the chatter of my mind, it was not the content of the dream which was taking my attention, but a certain type of kinetic movement of the mind that disturbed me. The mind was unusually talkative for that time of early dawn. But I persisted with the practice, as usually after a while the mind dies its own death. But hours flew by and yet the mind was highly active, giving ideas, suggestions and making judgments. The chattery of the mind reached to a point where, I started to question the need to sit down and mediate in silence. I thought perhaps I could do with out mediation today ! As soon as, this thought came to me. Lo! Abruptly, a blissful aura blew from everywhere and nowhere, and I was transported to a different location.
It was spacious living room, with charming wooden flooring and ceiling. The only furniture in the room was a wooden table and a bench on the side I was sitting. There was no one else in the room except, a figure and me. This figure was dressed in a gray color monastic robe with a headgear and sat at a distance from me on my right. I couldn’t identify the figure as its head was covered and didn’t really feel the need to inquire. The room’s dazzling wooden flooring and ceiling along with the aura hinted that perhaps we were in a cold region, but I knew that I had been in this room before. However, ‘when’ was the question.
After I had finished scanning the room, there was a knock on the front door of the room which was on my left hand side. I presumed that it was for me to get up and open the door. As I walked towards the door, I called out, who is it? A human voice said, “its me, your friend”. I couldn’t recognize the voice and didn’t expect any of my friends to appear at that place or time. Being a little suspicious about the identity of the person knocking the door. I reached the front door and bend down to peep through the key hole located under the door handle. As I peeped through the seemingly large keyhole, I saw only mystical lights of various colors dancing on a black background with Kundalini-like-energy. I was astonished not to find any physical or human form. A bit nervous, I was thinking whether to open the door or not. My only companion in the room was still in silence with head bend down as if nothing was happening. Seeing my companions response, I inferred that it was for me to decide, to open or not to open the door to the mysterious stranger. As soon as this thought had ended, the mysterious stranger again called out. This time by my name. “Arjun, don’t worry , I am your long time friend”. I peeped again through the key hole. This time I saw circles of light moving with great force like that of a hurricane. But the light and the patterns now seemed comforting and friendly. Following which I decided to open the door for this strange and formless friend of mine.
As I opened the door I was amazed to see, a medium built young person with a beautiful smile on his face. His face radiated such love and glow that I was invariably sucked to his charm. After a while as I lifted my gaze. I saw some one similar to Lahiri Baba standing behind the stranger-friend at some distance. As if to indicated that, he was the helper or guard. I shifted my gaze farther to the background, which was all black when I saw through the key hole. However, now the background was that of a hilltop, with a breathing taking view of the planes. The hilltop seemed green, serene and an ideal place for contemplation. On the left hand side of the hilltop was a large stone, which almost stood like a grand tree blocking my vision. The hilltop view seemed very familiar to me, I had been at this place many times before, I was certain about it.
Feeling a bit relaxed now, I shifted my gaze back to the strangely charming friend. As soon as I did that, the stranger said in a deeply loving voice, “ Come out, Arjun, Come out!” and offered his right hand, which seemed to suggest a handshake. I was puzzled for a while, what does it mean and entail. The stranger’s call certainly resonated with my inner being and he also seemed to have my highest interest in mind. Yet, I was wary of the unknown world outside. Half turned I looked back to my silent companion in the room for advice. Unlike earlier, this time the silent companion raised his head and looked straight at me. As I saw closely, the companions figure changed to the form of Mataji. I said, “It was Mataji all the while with me and I didn’t recognize her”. As I looked at the Mataji’s serene face, with the thought whether I should accept the strangers invitation. She instantaneously responded with a clear nod. After getting her assurance and seeing Lahiri Baba near by, it seemed that it was just a matter of time and that I had to accept the invitation.
I gazed finally at the room with happiness (for leaving the limited) and a bit of sadness (for the attachment with the room) . The stranger was still holding his hand towards me. I finally, moved my right hand towards him to symbolize my acceptance. As I moved my hand closer to his hand, I noticed that his hand was not in a position of handshake, as it seemed earlier, but that of some one lending a helping hand to pull out. I exclaimed, I thought this person was here to help me! He said we were friends and so equal. But the position of his hand indicates that it’s me who needs him. That I am seeking some thing and he is in a position to help me.
Subsequently, all thoughts vanished and my attention shifted to the charming stranger’s hand, as it emanated blinding flash white and yellowish light. The light expanded in the pattern of sunrise and was so overwhelming with radiance that I lost myself. After some time, as I regained physical awareness. I saw my self seated in a meditative posture on the bed. A great sense of coolness prevailed all over. Who was the strangely charming friend, who had offered his hand in great simplicity to awaken Reality in me?
Tears of joy and gratefulness streamed down my checks, as I intuitively realized that the strange friend was non other than Mahavatar Babaji. The hill-top location, was the spot where Babaji had initiated me a couple of years back in Tamil Nadu, India. And the simple but beautiful room which I was a bit reluctant to leave was symbolic of my attachment to the mind and to the world which the ego ´knew´.
Lord! What a fool am I! I can’t even recognize you? You came in the dream and then again in vision. What is that I am so attached to, that even now I have to think so much before offering my hand to you? I even suspected you Babaji! I said, and sobbed in deep silence. As I poured my heart out, Babaji’s voice rang with celestial music, “Love! Why even get attached to a still mind? ”
The voice said further,
“Come out, children, come out!
Be with me alone, me alone, me alone.
For the self is all alone, all alone, all alone”.
The following night when the Master visited again with his small group, the first thing I said, almost involuntarily. “Babaji, I want to come out, come out, come out”. There was complete silence in the room now, as I realized the naivety of my reaction. Sensing the comical aura, we all burst out in loud and hearty laughter. Needless to say this to the reader, that this laughter was complete, was whole, and was laughter itself!
Aum Babaji Aum!
