Time spent in the Himalayas helps us to anchor our
connections beyond the temporary relationships and
objects, to something more than what our senses
are satiated with. In the movie “Bucket List” one
can find one of the finest representations of what
man experiences on the Himalayas. You can call it
connection with nature, you can call it divine, the
ancient Himalayas have helped yogis experience the
connection in different dimensions. Sri Paramahansa
Yogananda, known as one of the greatest Yogis of
modern times, who inspired world leaders like Steve
Jobs and The Beatles helps us understand deeper
connections through 8 forms.
8 Forms To Experience
Power Connections
In the Himalayas, you are pushed out of your comfort
zone to experience the following 8 forms in every
part of the journey. These connections can be
experienced as
1. Peace
2. Calmness
3. Love
4. Joy
5. Light
6. Sound
7. Power
8. Wisdom
There are multiple exercises & techniques for
each form; the more we practise the techniques
the deeper we experience these attributes and
dimensions of connectedness. It is like entering
the unlimited ocean of wellbeing through different
channels. Here are 3 simple techniques to build and
strengthen your experience of this “Connection” even
when you don’t have access to the Himalayas. These
can be practised at any time, to usher in a wave of
wellbeing:
Connection exercises:
Sit in a comfortable position, relax, allow yourself to
immerse and focus on any one of the 8 forms. For
example, with Sound, pick any sound or music that
soothes you and holds your attention. Concentrate
on different aspects of the sound and visualize the
sound emanating and coming closer and closer and
touching you. Visualize it penetrating every cell and
making your entire space light up. Enjoy the feeling.
Allow it to grow. Slowly allow the music to lead your
body to move, in case you feel inspired to use your
body.
Build a relationship with the
day-to-day sounds around you:
Notice how sounds affect your mood, feelings, how
they move you and touch you. Weed out the ones
that put you down. Take notice of new and familiar
sounds around you. Note and engage more deeply
in sounds that have a charging, soothing or calming
effect. The more you practise noticing and building
the connection through these 8 forms you can start
to see your days as a crafted blend of these 8 forms.
The practice will heighten your awareness of how you
interact with each sound unconsciously.
