What is SahajaYoga Meditation?
Sahaja Yoga is a unique method of meditation based on an experience called Self Realization (Kundalini awakening) that can occur within each human being.
Through this process an inner transformation takes place by which one becomes moral, united, integrated and balanced.
One can actually feel the all pervading divine power as a cool breeze, as described in all religions and spiritual traditions of the world.
This is the actualization of such transformation, which is taking place now, worldwide, and has been proved and experienced by hundreds of thousands in over 90 countries.
It is entirely free of charge, as one cannot pay for the experience of Divine Love.
Meaning of the name
The word 'Sahaja' in Sanskrit has two components: 'Saha' is 'with' and 'ja' is 'born'.
A Dictionary of Buddhism gives the literal translation of Sahaja as "innate" and defines it as
"denoting the natural presence of enlightenment (bodhi) or purity." and Yoga means union with
the divine and refers to a spiritual path or a state of spiritual absorption. According to a
book published by Sahaja Yogis, Sahaja Yoga means spontaneous and born with you meaning that the
kundalini is born within us and can be awakened spontaneously, without effort.
History
