Finally able to do Surya Kriya properly

Aug 1

Woke up fresh around 6 plus am. Decided to wake up and do Sadhana.

Did Bhuta Shuddhi followed by preparatory for Surya Kriya.
A very good one, my best Surya Kriya in all these years. Able to do slowly. The mountain pose is great cos for the first time I m able to use my shoulder and elbow to support my body. Able to lying down posture quite effortlessly due to stronger elbow joints. Bit stiff but no more pain.
I m ready for Angamardhana.

Did a quick breathing.

Did Shakti. It was awesome. First time doing a slow 7 breathe counts. Just being in the presence of my breathe.
Kapala Bhakti was bit fast.
Did slow breathing count at the end. My slowest.
In the end a deep silence settled within.
Followed by chanting of Gurur Brahma.

Did a quick preparatory for Shambavi but no time for Fluttering breathe as alarm has rang. So a quick one.

Went for my Angamardhana. I was surprise that I did good despite a 6 weeks no practice. The squatting posture was good. Even able to do jumping albeit slower.
 Only the lying down posture I was rusty.

Went to lunch with V and wife. Told them of my sudden interest in Homeopathy for my retirement plan Wellness centre. They too amazed at my miraculous recovery.
V said I can do online course. Both also agree that learning Germany language will be helpful.

So idea is sound.
Now the hard work of learning.
On the promotion I m not so worried.

Guess I m resistant towards hard work, investment in education.

I used to study hard so I need not have to study. But now need to go back to the books. Not only the technical but also the language.




Two of Clubs

Soul
Well, I am definitely looking into it.
Just  checked out some internet news..yes..many against Homeopathy. No wonder the doctor asked others to read his articles before coming to see him.Homeopathy doctor said it is tough battle...as there is a lack of positive communication. It took a few years for them to build their clientile and mostly only rich one can afford their medication, so the base is low.

Suddenly recalled my next 7 years card..which is all about communication.

Destiny Age 49 to 55

Long range
Two of Clubs (communications, fear and arguing)
Partnership involved in some Mercury related activities that will play a major role.
Mercury rules written and spoken words and all kinds of mental activities
Studying, teaching, writings, publishing and advertising all falls under his jurisdiction.
Watch out for impatience and a quick temper to get the best results.
U will be wanting to share tots and ideas with other and thus will probably attract a lot of other people in ur life.

Environment
Seven of Hearts (learning unconditional love and non attachment in rships)
This could be the year that u have a real experience of unconditional love.
As u allow others to be who they are, u also allows urself to be urself, and in this way, u will be able to experience a new sense of personal freedom.
To be totally free means having no attachments to others and no worries about whether or not they love us.
It also means having a knowing that there will always be enough love in our life, because it comes from within.

Soul
Yes..a tough battle..now fighting the public..
And since I have to invest money into education..the more I may be defensive.
At least the Homeopathy doctor has his own medical cert to back up his homeopathy cert.
I got nothing...
But I got something he doesnt' have..I am good promoter.. and I can attract people.
He definitely lacked charisma..

Father..tough battle..ahead..
The only thing keeping me going is that I m keen on wellness centre.
I am excited of healing myself..I am excited of learning new things..
I want to do something with my mind.

Displacement
Five of Spades (change in lifestyle or living location, a long trip or change of job)

It is likely that u will move to a new home this year or change jobs. U could even do both under this powerful card of changes.
Expect some significant changes in ur life styles, ones that will lead u to a fuller expression of ur life force in the current cycle.
The actual changes may entail a lot of work and energy on ur part  and at times you may feel burdened by them. But this is ur time to make the move.
Make ur adjustments and get on with it.
Spades represents our lifestyle - the things that we actually do each and every day.
This powerful Five tells u that somehow ur lifestyle will change this year in a significant way.
Flow with the changes as best as u can, and u will be led to a better place for urself and those u love.

Ace of Spades

Jul 31

Woke up fresh this morning around 6.11 am
Went to toilet and try to sleep back but can't seem to.
Decided to wake up before 6.30 am and do my Sadhana

Did Bhuta Shuddhi followed by Cat stretch.
My misaligned muscle/bones bit painful. Never use to bother me as the pain from RA joints was more than the misaligned muscle or perhaps back then the pain prevent me from moving my elbow properly. Now that there is no pain and when I straightened my elbow, the misaligned muscle/bone at the elbow( with me since I was around 4 years old) bit painful. This could be a part that is blocking the energy.
Want to remove this.

Did a slow cat stretch with a deeper breathing...

Yogaasaanas was good..Love the standing postures...deep into it.
The standing tree posture was effortless.
Laughing at the lifting one leg posture. Now learning to breathe in deeply and slowly for the two legs posture
Able to do lying down posture quite well.
61 points awareness meditation was quite dreamy...just so contented with my body..and lost awareness.

Breathing meditation was lovely..just go into my deep presence...feeling my inner presence..and sensing body as just a casing. Sat for a long while..didn't want ot move.
Shakti was bit fast..cos I was having slight menses and I am excited to meet up the Homeopathy doctor. Did a short  Kapala Bhakti cycle but bit too fast. Still I was singing Gurur Brahma in the end.

Shambavi was nice. Feeling my inner presence in stillness.
Later singing Gurur Brahma in the end.

Went to see the doctor..
He already mixed my medicine and even gave me a free supply of sinus medication. Showed me the  video which makes sense. He said while my sinus is better it hasn't' cured. Well, I admit I still got left 40% blockage. But I had live with it for so long..and with RA, this wasn't top priority especially since I don't have other sympthons.
Anyway, it is free so I just take his offer.

He also prescribed the cholesterol medication as required by my doctor. Well, 50 bucks so just take it as he himself is taking it.

Anyway, I already messaged my old friend A who had sinus problem. Maybe he will benefit from this.

He asked why I am asking for Homeopathy courses. He said he can conduct if I found others who are keen. I said I m keen to explore this as part of my retirement plan. I told him I had a vision of having a wellness centre that combines Isha hata yoga in my double story link house upper floor and ground floor is Homeopathy medication.

But I am not sure if Homeopathy is for me as I used to sleep in Biology classes in higher secondary school. I am also not sure if I am just having a flash since I was miraculously cured from RA joints pain.

The doctor told me that he and his brother were certified doctors who is near retirement. He has Phd and can easily do lecturing after retirement but thats mean he has to teach. He doesn't want that. So he spend a few hundred thousand doing Homeopathy course in Germany. Since he was a full fledged doctor he was exempted for 2 years and only did 2 and half years.
He came back nearly 8 years ago and it was not an easy start as no one believes in homeopathy. He did it not out of money..he did it because he is happy in helping others. He said he is so happy when I messaged him that my RA pain was 80% gone in a few days.

I told him i m also not doing this for money. I just turned down a big corporate job..I want to find something that fit with my life style of yoga and wellness seems to be it.
I also shared about my visit to the 6 star resorts, the owner who wanted to have a wellness sanctuary and the construction/fishing/fruit trees caretaker.
It is all about passion to do whatever needed in the change of career.
I am not sure if I am really passionate.

He said this journey is not easy...because not many believed in homeopathy.
I said I am promoter and I know I can easily promote Homeopathy as I am cured from it.
My issue is now to gather the knowledge.
He said I can start to learn at the side..and to sell Homeopathy medicine as I can get the supply from him. I said I want to have the proper knowledge and I am willing to invest time to learn.
He said i can learn from single remedy and then further expand.
Yes, I told him thats my tot too..to start from RA and then Osteoarthritis and later Ezcema

My Daily Card
The Ace of Spades

The Ace of Spades means a SECRET of some kind. This card was the emblem for many of the secret societies of old, being the 'key to the mysteries'. As such, it represents the 'truth that lies behind the veil of illusion'. So, it has often been the symbol for the study and pursuit of esoteric knowledge and mystical wisdoms.

The Ace of Spades is also one of the traditional cards for death, change and transformation. With this mystical card in your spread, it is certain that you will go through some sort of death and rebirth, or at the least, some important and powerful changes.

Another facet of the Ace of Spades is the desire for work. Since all Aces represent new beginnings, the Ace of Spades can come up when we are preparing to launch a new job or occupation.

North Node in the eleventh house

Jul 30 aft 1

North node in the eleventh house life issues include friendships, your relationship to groups who work toward a cause, and your hopes and dreams. It also has to do with your adopted (step, or foster) children, and receiving love in new ways.

Something you should know. An eleventh house soul mission is often revealed through a painful blow to the ego around a love affair. If this happens, know that this was meant to open you up to a more rational view. By willingly seeking a relationship of equals, your love life will also bloom.

Soul
Well the break up with Z definitely was a big blow to my ego; hence it was so difficult for me to accept that it happens
Seven of Hearts life time challenge.
Well, can't say Z was my equal after Y. Even Y not my equal.

My Daily Card
The King of Spades

The King of Spades is the final, and most powerful card in the deck, representing both mastery of one's environment and one's self. Whenever this card appears you can bet that you will experience good fortune and results.

It is especially good for legal matters and business but can be applied to any area of life for success. It is truly the card of 'success in all things' but brings the most blessings to those who are ready and willing to take responsibility for their life and work and who can take a leadership position in their work. Remember this is a King we are talking about and every King has a kingdom.

Be prepared to take a leadership role and to live by your own wisdom when this potent card appears. Success is yours for the taking, but you have to stand up and claim it.


soul
Today I took charge.
I go for what makes me happy instead of what I am fearful of.
Whats makes me happy is said no to the job.
Others may have a better time if I take up the job..but I will be the unhappy one.
No more going for validation by others..just need my own validation.
No more making myself sad.


This week card
Issue - Integration
The conflict is in man. Unless it is resolved there, it cannot be resolved anywhere else. The politics is within you; it is between the two parts of the mind. A very small bridge exists. If that bridge is broken through some accident, through some physiological defect or something else, the person becomes split, the person becomes two persons and the phenomenon of schizophrenia or split personality happens. 

If the bridge is broken - and the bridge is very fragile - then you become two, you behave like two persons.

Soul
I am finally integrated.
Saying no to the past..saying no to what used to validate me.

2. Internal influences that you are unaware
Control
Controlled persons are always nervous because deep down turmoil is still hidden. If you are uncontrolled, flowing, alive, then you are not nervous. There is no question of being nervous - whatsoever happens, happens. You have no expectations for the future, you are not performing.

Soul
Saying no to fear of financial security
Saying no to what makes me unhappy.
Saying yes to to the unknown, to the uncertain..saying yes to Devi.


4. What’s needed for resolution?
Miser

The moment you start clinging to things, you have missed the target--you have missed. Because things are not the target, you, your innermost being, is the target--not a beautiful house, but a beautiful you; not much money, but a rich you; not many things, but an open being, available to millions of things.


Whatever you're holding on to, remember that you can't take it with you. Loosen your grip and feel the freedom and expansiveness sharing can bring.

Soul
No more letting fear of financial security guides my life.
No more letting fear guide me

5. Resolution

Existence
You are not accidental. Existence needs you. Without you something will be missing in existence and nobody can replace it. That's what gives you dignity, that the whole existence will miss you. The stars and sun and moon, the trees and birds and earth - everything in the universe will feel a small place is vacant which cannot be filled by anybody except you. 

This gives you a tremendous joy, a fulfillment that you are related to existence, and existence cares for you. Once you are clean and clear, you can see tremendous love falling on you from all dimensions.
This naked figure sits on the lotus leaf of perfection, gazing at the beauty of the night sky. She knows that "home" is not a physical place in the outside world, but an inner quality of relaxation and acceptance. The stars, the rocks, the trees, the flowers, fish and birds - all are our brothers and sisters in this dance of life. We human beings tend to forget this, as we pursue our own private agendas and believe we must fight to get what we need. But ultimately, our sense of separateness is just an illusion, manufactured by the narrow preoccupations of the mind. 

Now is the time to look at whether you are allowing yourself to receive the extraordinary gift of feeling "at "home" wherever you are. If you are, be sure to take time to savor it so it can deepen and remain with you. If on the other hand you've been feeling like the world is out to get you, it's time to take a break. Go outside tonight and look at the stars.

Soul
No more fighting to secure myself
I let the Universe secure me
I let Devi protect me
No need to protect myself.

Decision no more from fear based

Jul 30

Yesterday again receive offer to join the ex-company. The one I quit as I couldn't handle the work pressure and long hours and domineering boss.
For a moment, I tot I may accept the offer due to me wanting more money.
Tot of working for a few years so can pay off my condo loan commitment.
Drove back and when I reached home, I knew that I am not happy if I go.
I m only considering due to fear of financial security,
I just sit with the Devi, listening to Sadhguru chant and transported to Devi's temple.

Had a good sleep, woke up before alarm around 4 plus.
When I woke up I knew that I want to make my decision on being happy, not ruled by fear.
I want money and Devi will bring me new ways to make money.
So will tell my boss that I won't be going for the potential offer.

Did Bhuta Shuddi followed by cat stretch.
My right elbow is bit painful due to the 'odd muscle growth'. All these years I tot it was due to the wrongly joint of ulna and radius but Homeopathy doctor said it is due to abnormal growth. He said I m lucky that I can move my hand normally.
Yogaasanas was quite good. Laughing during the one leg lifting up. On the two legs, managed to breathe longer. As for the rest, I didn't hold up too well.
Plough back is very good
61 points awareness meditation..was bit off..can't focus..just feel good.

Breathing meditation was something else. I was aware of my inner presence. I felt my body was a casing. The presence is ground.

Shakti was good...but bit fast on Kapala Bhakti.
Singing opening invocation at the end of Shakti.

Shambavi is quite okay.
Just feeling the silence presence within.

So glad that I read the age 49 to 55.
I am ready to leave my fear of financial security.

Displacement in Age 49 to 55 (Ruling)
Nine of Spades (loss of jobs, poor health, death, a major ending of some component of our lifestyle)

This is likely to be a crucial year for u in which a major chapter of ur life comes to an end. Some aspects of ur life has reached a point of fulfilment and now must be swept away to make room for new cycle of growth and opportunity.
Be prepared and open to endings in most any area and you will be less likely to suffer the disappointment and frustration generally associated with this card.

Often health matters comes into play with this powerful card. If u have any negative habits that affect ur health adversely, there is a very good chance that these habits will have to be cleared out by this year. In many cases, it can be a matter of life or death - get rid of the bad habits or else.
But for those who are aware of themselves, there will be no surprises and the endings will be seen as the next stage in their evolutionary journey.

Another common manifestation of this card is loss of job or the death of one more people close to us. In any of these cases, regardless of how unfair they may seems to us at the time, whatever is lost was not really a part of us that was good for us anymore.
It is only the fear of the unknown that keeps us clinging on to jobs, rships and other things that we know inside are not good for us. We would rather suffer with the familiar than have to face an uncertain future.

But when the Nine of Spades come along, major housecleaning will occur. Just what areas of ur life are affected, whether it be work, health, lifestyle or rships, will depend upon ur personal circumstances. Life is an always-changing phenomenon and though we are attached to things the way they are, everything must evolve and grow eventually.
This year marks important graduation year for u.
U have come a long way with things they way they are and have now progressed far enough that u are ready for a new future.
All that remains is to clear out the old to make way for the new.

Soul
I am so glad that I m going to Ashram.
Devi will guide me to whatever new ways to make money.





Sadhguru - sadhana is to provoke your energies

Jul 29

Soul
Bit disappointed that Y doesn't allow his brass Sannidhi to be borrowed. He said can only removed during house shift. Then must do the full moon Pooja. I recalled Ashram said it is good to have Pooja on those days but not mandatory. Also he was the one that said Sannidhi not good to be shared. For me, Sannidhi is also a tool.

I m so glad I decided not to be attached to my Sannidhi. After yesterday Pooja I knew that Sadhguru will be with me wherever I am. My experience of Sathsang becoming more awesome after Sannidhi. My aim is to be a consecrated body myself.
So seeing Y so attached to Sannidhi makes me glad that I made decisions to go to local Guru purnima.

Sadhguru

Since you are not willing to surrender your will, we are prodding you through this sadhana [spiritual practices] to provoke your energies. That is why the path of asana and kriya. Since you are not able to do it by yourself, just activate creation itself in a certain way. If it begins to move, it settles everything. It is like a flood; your centuries-old world is wiped away in only a few hours of fury. So your sadhana is not about getting somewhere. It is just a way, a method to unleash a flood so enormous that it wipes away your petty creations and leaves you as the Creator intended you to be.”
