Crawl or fly? History with the continuation ...

What the caterpillar calls the End of the World, the Master calls the Butterfly ...

Richard Bach.

The main condition for a magical transformation will be preparedness.

• Preparedness of the player consists of the degree of his awareness and ability to resist the defenses of the mind, giving up. For this, he must first of all know all his defenses and be able to stop at their revival, directly going to the living of fears. Loving, at the Academy of Leela, we gave the term such a "flow around".
• The ability to "flow around" is a good prerequisite for complete surrender, but this is only a prerequisite.
• The erasure of personal life history, separation skills, samadhi experience, service, and many other things that players in the Leela Academy are learning are also necessary to activate the process that Shri Bhagavat calls complete surrender or enlightenment.

It is important to understand that not every caterpillar is ready to become a butterfly.

For this it is not enough just to deliver your body in the field of the master and wait for him to create a miracle.

Afterword. Retreat in Tire 2018 (6th edition).

Three happy days. Retreat in Tire 2018 (5th edition).

Even 6 km before the Ashram, we began to see signs pointing to the Ashram and only after arriving at the territory of the residence of Shri Bhagavat, we saw that we were in a beautiful valley surrounded on all sides by mountains. Leaving the car, we saw Sri Bhagavat coming towards us ...

Sri Bhagavat is the master of the last stage, assuming complete surrender of the mind, which in the spiritual world is called enlightenment.

After a long preparation, the moment comes when the student is ready to receive knowledge of the last stage of training.

It is this teacher that is Sri Bhagavat, who takes the "mature" disciple and directs him exactly into the right Knowledge. Because it is knowledge that provides understanding and is what is called enlightenment and leads to liberation.

Arunachala. Retreat in Tire 2018 (4th edition).

Arunachala has always remained relatively little known. But for those who comprehend the jnana, Arunachala always makes itself felt through these or those other means.

"All the stones in that place [of Arunachala] are lingams." This is indeed the abode of Lord Siva, the words spoken in the Holy Scripture: "and the meditators there will be absorbed into samadhi, beyond the delusions of the mind." Could there be another place that would be equal to him? "Arunachala Puranam.

Giri Pradakshan. Retreat in Thira 2018 (3rd edition).

By the time this article was published, the second week of the retreat in Tiruvannamalai had gone.

And the players have already passed Giri Pradakshanu, bypassing Mount Arunachala during the full moon.

Usually, on the day preceding each full moon, pilgrims go around the temple and the hills of Annamalai in worship called Girivalam, a practice that takes up to one million pilgrims a year. The value of Girivalam (Bypass). The way around Arunachala is 14 kilometers.

Sri Ramana Maharshi once explained the meaning of this word pradakshina and how this should be done with the help of a devotee: "Letter"

• Pra "means the removal of all sins;
• "yes" means fulfilling desires;
• "Kshi" means freedom from future births;
•   "on" stands for giving deliverance through jnana

Mundan. Retreat in Tire 2018 (2nd edition).

Mount Arunachala is considered a silent teacher and the ancient practice of Mundan, symbolizes complete devotion to God, the Guru. This is a sign of entry on the spiritual path.

• Mundan helps to cut off psychological dependence on our physical form and change our perception of ourselves.
• Mundan eliminates old vibrations that accumulate in the hair and opens the higher chakra in our head, allowing the divine energy to enter inside. According to the teachings of yoga, we should do mundan at least once in life.
  

Players, after many years of practice, are internally ripe to this known in the whole spiritual world, the procedure of dedicating themselves to the spiritual world.

Annamalaiyar Temple. Arunachala

Place salvation.
SivaPuranam defines four sacred places for salvation.
Thiruvannamalai is one of them.

The value of this place is that the mere remembrance of the Lord in this place Arunachaleswarar gives salvation to all souls (Ninaithale Mukti Tharum Thiruthalam).
 In Saivism this temple occupies a special place, being also one of the five Pancha Bhuta Sthalamov (one of the five great temples associated with the five basic elements) - is associated with the fire. The other four: Thiruvanaikaval Dzhambukeshvara (water), Chidambaram (ether), Kanchi Ekambareshvara (earth) and Kalahasti Nathar (air).
 For the first time the temple is mentioned in the works of the poet Nakkirar, so we can assume that he is not less than two thousand years.

Arunachala - the incarnation of Shiva.

Asked about the special sanctity of Arunachala, Ramana Maharshi said that other holy places, such as Kailash, Kasi and Chidambaram are sacred because they are the abode of Lord Shiva, while Arunachala is Lord Siva himself.
However, as the above verse Arunachala Mahatmyam says, it is the secret of Arunachala Kshetra. It is a place that bestows jnana (knowledge of self), but most people have so many other desires, and do not really want jnana.
Arunachala has always been relatively little known. But for those who understands jnana, Arunachala always makes itself felt through these or other means.

The participants of the retreat had the task of total ego surrender.

About how this happened understanding and delivery of the delivery itself, you can see in the reports of players, but first, we recall, as is said, one of the teachers of Rama Ramesh Balsekar.

"... Only that precedes the appearance of the body-consciousness, there is your true self That's reality. This is - here and now can be no question about the fact that someone was able to achieve or realize it.
Man, fear of insecurity and hoping for help from higher powers, creates the concept of a supernatural God. But this God, and the very essence of striving for safety in it, both of them - no more than a concept.
Experience is never real, but only conceptual. Whatever the experience, it is an event, taking place only in the mind ... "
So, now the statements of participants of the retreat ...

Traveling without return.
