MASTERING THE SIDDHIS 1-6
Mastering the Siddhis 1-6
Twenty-seven centuries ago, Patanjali, the great Seer (maharishi), cognized his masterpiece, The Yoga Sutras. A sutra is a consciousness formula. Yoga is the experience of unity of one’s individual mind with their cosmic mind. In his treatise, Patanjali describes the method for achieving mastery of the relationship between individual human potential and the laws of nature. Very few masters have fathomed the truth of Patanjali's teaching and techniques, and consequently his teaching had faded into obscurity until recently.
A Siddhi is an extraordinary human power, a rare capability to interact with the laws of nature to manifest desires, the power to engage the laws of nature in order to live in accord with them from within one's deep level of bliss consciousness. Once mastered, the Siddhis are considered to be the most powerful and advanced technique in a meditators repertoire.
The Mastering the Siddhis course is taught in six installments. Each of the first five installments consists of approximately seven and a half hours of training and comprises a series of recorded instructions and lectures by Thom Knoles.
Each of the installments will give you a new practice with enormous lifelong benefit and can be enjoyed without the necessity to complete all six installments.
This course will be available starting in January 2022.
About Advanced Courses
Once you have learned how to establish yourself in Vedic Meditation and you begin meditating regularly for at least twelve months, you are eligible to receive an Advanced Technique. An Advanced Technique is designed to take one’s awareness to that layer of consciousness that occupies the space between the relative and absolute. This is the space we call the charm zone.. Or state of bliss, that deep spot that we linger in our daily meditations. We can then realize that state in every moment of our waking state.
Advanced Techniques are for those who want to speed up their evolution. It is like pulling materials for a project and really clueing into how they merge towards each other. And then getting on a roll and pulling more and more palettes each one better than the next. We can get where we need to go by pulling one palette at a time, but it will take much longer than if we start clueing into a higher level of consciousness.
An Advanced Technique may involve the student learning a more advanced version of their existing mantra, or it may involve learning a more advanced method of using the mantra they already have received.
