EXPERIENCE SHARES
The following is a sampling of experience shares from people who have participated in our weekend Supreme Meditation Intensives.

Thank you for this beautiful weekend Intensive. I have learned more in these last two days that I have learned in my whole life! I feel right at home and as if I have come home. There is such wealth here. I am very happy to have been a part of this Intensive and experienced such wonderful teachings and meditations. Thank you for the wonderful meals and hospitality; this was also a very important part of my experience here also. Thank you.

After receiving Shaktipat from Acharyaji, there was a great deal of energy at the top of my head and I heard a sound. The sound was a vibration that sounded like someone was ringing bells off in the distance. When I focused on the sound the energy rose to a space above my head and I saw a very bright white light. Then I experienced a physical kriya as my body began to tremble. I was heaving up some emotions but it didn't feel like me. I wasn't doing anything. It was just happening to me. Like Acharyaji was cleaning me out. Then, I began to cry out load in a release that felt like I had been cleaned out. I feel at peace and very clean.
|
Acharyaji's Grace reached me even before He gave me Shaktipat by touch. I experienced a blissful state of meditation. Later, I was told that there were several people going through laughing kriyas during the Meditation and that the noise level was quite loud. I was so absorbed inside that I did not even notice. I didn't hear a thing. When Acharyaji did give me the touch, I experienced full conscious awareness with no thoughts. I was looking at an Om symbol. Instead of a curve, it had a handle and it was shimmering beautifully with light. Then I heard Acharyaji's voice giving me instruction as I sailed off into meditation without conscious awareness. My experience tells me that Acharyaji is a true Guru.
|
This is my first two-day intensive. Is this what it's always like? I feel so much spiritual energy on this second day. I am glad that I came for the whole weekend. I learned and experienced a lot about devotion and faith and how important they are. I feel devotion and faith. I feel my heart. I feel I am melting. Just melting. This brings me great joy as I really need to melt. I am also glad there was a question about Divine Will and that Acharyaji spoke about that. I have been wondering and contemplating Divine Will and my will for my whole life. Now I have an understanding about that.
|
I had wonderful experiences again in this Intensive. I feel very calm and open to receiving. In the midst of one of the meditations I didn't feel my body anymore. I just felt my spine, and then, I had this wonderful experience of being a thin, long column of light. It was so incredibly healing. I felt that I am not my body but I am also not very far away. The experience was wonderful.
|
| The experience I had in the meditation following Shaktipat is the best meditation I have ever had in all the years of my meditation practice. It was so wonderful! I feel completely free, peaceful and very happy. I saw Bhagawan Nityananda in a seated posture appear before me. He glided toward me in this posture and when He got very close to me He began to multiply until His form filled all the space I could see. This was the best meditation I have ever had. I was with Bhagawan in a sea of Him!

The way I have been taught meditation was very rigid and in a stiff posture. After asking Acharya for instruction for my meditation, my experience of meditation was changed. I did just as he said and my meditations have since been profound. I am very happy to have received Acharya's instruction. It changed the quality and depth of my meditation.
|
In this Intensive I started to experience a burning desire for God. I have always experienced a seperateness from God, feeling different and far removed from God. I truly haven't felt a longing for God in a long time because I didn't feel good about myself and thought that God would not actually hear me. Now, I feel that, as I identify myself as God, this seperateness is being diminished little by little. And as my faith increases, so does my experience of God.
|
I heard sounds welling up from inside me that became like a ringing in my ears. My head felt like it was going to explode and then, suddenly, everything relaxed and I heard the Mantra from inside me.
|
I had beautiful experiences in meditation. In one meditation, I saw myself floating. I felt tears and bliss of happiness. Even now, I feel unbelievable happiness.
|
I have never known that Love exists inside myself. I have looked for it outside myself my whole life. For so many years I have searched for Love. I even thought that I had experienced it only to find out that I had not. Both days of this Intensive have been really intense for me. A lot has happened. My meditations were wonderful. I have discovered that Love is within my very Self. Acharya showed me that Love is within myself. I cry tears of joy in gratitude for this revelation. I did not know that Love existed inside me at all. Thank You to Acharyaji. Thank God. I am overjoyed; I am so happy!
|
I had amazing kriyas every time Acharyaji touched me or brushed me with the peacock feathers. My whole body began to shake uncontrollably and then there was an explosion inside me. I then saw blue light emanating from inside me and there was a gold and white light also, and then a red light, along with intense heat.
|
I have been struggling emotionally with my husband and a friend's near death. When I got to the Ashram I was very angry. I've been very angry for the last couple of weeks. I believed God created suffering and I could not understand it. I was angry with God. When Acharyaji approached me to give me Shaktipat, I fought Him. I was trying to push Him away but He persisted. As He did so, I felt the emotions slowly lift and I began to feel peaceful. As the intensive continues, more emotions are lifting and I feel even more at peace. I am able to give myself to the meditations and experience what I came here for.
|
I have been on my way to a castle in my meditations. It is an ongoing journey. After receiving Shaktipat from Acharyaji I saw myself there again, but I did not see the castle in the distance this time. I was on a path. The path was not paved but made with leaves of some kind. On both sides of me were very steep cliffs and the path was very dark. When I looked up to the top of the cliff, I saw light, lots of light. Now, knowing that the light was there, I held on to that, and continued slowly down the path.
|
During this intensive, I have had very intense bodily movements. These kriyas shook my whole body. During one of the meditations, after a kriya, I had this experience of someone holding me up very high. And there I was, in Bhagawan Nityananda's Mahasamadhi shrine. I recognized it immediately because I have been there. I was so happy to be back there. Then someone was holding me and began to raise me higher to ring the bells at the temple. I was ringing the bells feeling so very happy when I realized it was Babaji Nityananda holding me and raising me higher.
|
I was doing Seva during this whole Intensive and when I stopped to meditate, Acharyaji came out of the meditation and gave me Shaktipat. I became engulfed in blue. A big blue body sat in my lap and entered me. This pushed me down onto the floor. I fell over on to the floor and remained there the rest of the meditation. Also, I have been having a lot of pain in my heel, so much so that I have not been able to sleep. My heel does not hurt at all now.
|
| I was being tested this weekend. One doesn't always know that they are being tested until a time afterward, especially when one is failing the test. And I was failing miserably. I had looked at Bhagawan Nityananda's picture and he looked upset, like he was disappointed with me. I knew that this hurt feeling was my own projection and his photo was that reflection. I told him that I just need some time and asked him to please just give me a little time. Then Acharyaji delivered his talk and the teachings and examples in his talk were absolutely perfect. I received so much from Acharyaji's talk. It was absolutely perfect in tone, content and humor and gave me exactly what I needed for what I was going through and that's when everything turned around. I looked back at Bhagawan's picture and there was a bright light around him and I experienced him as if he were in my own body.

I want to thank you. Although I have experienced initiation before, this was the most gentle, the most beautiful and also the safest rising I ever had back to the one heart, the one love.
|
This was my first intensive and this is all very new to me. I did have many realizations about myself in these two days. I was given so much knowledge and I am still processing it. This has been wonderful and amazing. I kept seeing Bhagawan Nityananda and the face of the Master, Acharya Kedar in my meditations. The Master also appeared to me in orange robes. I am in awe, amazed.
|
In this glorious Intensive, by Acharyaji's Grace, I experienced the value of the teachings Acharyaji shared. Upon attributing an experience I had to the Shakti, I experienced an emotionless state. I became indifferent to emotions, people and circumstances. As if I had lost interest and was experiencing simply existence. I held awareness without having any kind of judgment or reaction. This was a foreign experience for me as I am accustomed to processing through my ego and emotions readily. I realized that what had happened is that I had consciously chosen to not engage thoughts. Through one of the Dharanas Acharyaji led, I was able to experience very clearly that what I was practicing could be equated to popping my thoughts like a balloon. This is a most valuable lesson. I have experienced that I do not have to engage thoughts, emotions, etc. Then, I am not appropriating the experiences to myself and therefore do not have a reaction to them either.
|
The moment I received shaktipat, I felt a movement in my heart center and then I began to cry uncontrollably. I was weeping and sobbing. My head fell forward and then I began laughing out loud. Then my laughing turned to sobbing again. Then I started breathing really fast and then I fell into a deep meditation. Later, when Acharya Kedar spoke about doership and non-doership of action, I broke out in an uncontrollable wave of laughter. I realized that for 62 years of my life I thought I was doing everything and now I realize it was all God.
|
In this intensive my experience of sound has become magnified. Every little sound is so loud and I just want to yell "shut up" at the sounds. I always judge myself so harshly and I was judging this sensitivity to sound also. In the last meditation, I just gave in to the sounds without judgment and then I experienced silence. At first it was Om Namah Shivaya very softly and then I felt the energy of the mantra vibrating my body so strongly that my whole being was this vibration and then there was just silence. I feel that my body got strong and I have a warm, wonderful feeling. I am still feeling that vibration, the pulsation and the silence inside.
|
When Acharyaji touched me, I fell very deep in meditation and then I noticed that I was doing spontaneous gestures or mudras, like hand gestures. My body was moving on its own, spontaneously.
|
| After receiving Shaktipat from Acharya Kedar, I had an amazing experience. I slipped into a deep meditation and I transcended the void and entered witness consciousness. Here I experienced myself expand to become the vastness of the Universe, feeling completely free and full of Bliss. I experienced a state of all-knowing, yet without language. I was aware that my body was in meditation because I felt it lying in a rejuvenating pool; yet, I experienced complete awareness of being the energy of observance and not merely the form engaged in meditation. In this state there were no words, ideas, thoughts, notions or imagination. This state was one without any limitation or intellectual comprehension, just awareness.
