Essential Siddha Yoga Teachings - Siddha Yoga Meditation
Honor your Self,
Worship your Self,
Meditate on your Self,
God dwells within you as you.
This teaching by Swami Muktananda comes from his own direct experience of meditation. It also encapsulates a main teaching from the ancient philosophies of
Advaita Vedanta and
Kashmir Shaivism.
The Self refers to one's innermost core of consciousness, the very source of awareness within. When we experience this inner place through meditation, we realize that our own inner consciousness is one and the same as the universal or divine consciousness.
See God in each other.
Once we begin to perceive God or divine consciousness within, we can recognize that the same consciousness is in others, too. As we embrace the understanding of seeing God in each other, we are able to live a life of utmost love and respect for everyone and everything. Swami Muktananda describes this beautifully in an on-line excerpt from his book From the Finite to the Infinite.
The heart is the hub of all sacred places; go there and roam.
This core teaching of Bhagawan Nityananda points us again to the experience of divinity within each of us. In the philosophy of yoga, "the heart" refers to the innermost place of consciousness that can be known through meditation. The heart is the abode of universal love.
Nothing exists that is not Shiva.
According to the philosophy of Kashmir Shaivism, the whole universe is a manifestation of Shiva, or the Lord. To live with the awareness that Shiva is in all things is a powerful spiritual practice that leads to unity-awareness.
