“Your common observations and expressions are not realities, and Infinity itself cannot be spoken. This is the normal situation. And there are so many Infinities in our experience. God is Infinity. Love is Infinity. Commitment is Infinity. In every facet of our life we have the potential for the Infinity of our projection. Projecting with Infinity in our speech is the base of our committed language.” –Yogi Bhajan

Stephen Hawking’s Machine of Life, part of the Genius Series on PBS. The question of life and its origins is one of the most closely examined issues in history. Are we alone in the universe? How likely is it that life exists anywhere, or at all? How is it explained? What is the prime motivation for life to exist? How does simple life evolve into more complex life forms? What is the relationship between the physical phenomenon of life and consciousness, e.g., God?
Stephen Hawking’s treatment of this subject is clear, precise and accessible to non-scientists. It stimulates thought on levels of consciousness that transcend the physical experience and scientific scrutiny. It exposes the patterns and tendencies of nature that produce, sustain and evolve life.
The treatment is described mainly in terms of experiments performed by innocent participants who do not know ahead of time what’s going on, but who discover along with us some simple and profound truths.
A fair conclusion to be drawn from the experiments is that their is a strong tendency for life to form when conditions are favorable. Only the right ingredients, some range of temperate climate, however localized, and some form of activation energy are enough to allow life to form. The blueprint is in the ingredients themselves, and not a preconfigured process that operates on them. Once organic molecules are formed from elements, and then animo acids and proteins, a unique DNA configuration may become organized and begin producing life. The “machine” is in the ingredients themselves, which possess the chemical, physical and energetic tendencies for the formation life, and is not an external agent operating on those ingredients.
Another experiment illustrates how life evolves into more complex forms by virtue of the suitablility of some life forms to survive long enough to propagate: survival of the fittest.
Seeing this reminds me of Ek Ong Kar. “One God, One Creation”. This model of cosmology and theology has the Creator of all Creation remaining within and inextricably part of creation in its most subtle levels of matter, energy and consciousness. The macroscopic physical being is fundamentally comprised of tissues, cells, DNA, proteins, amino acids, organic molecules, carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen and other trace elements and the tendency in consciousness to exist and to keep on reinventing and replicating itself using semi-undifferentiated energy that is absorbed from the environment. What created the universe continues to recreate the universe and its life forms.
On May 29 we held a Meditation and Sat Nam Rasayan Healing Workshop at Shunnya Centre. We practiced “Healing with the Elements: Fire and Air”. Our goal was to include and merge elements with the healing space in order to allow them to affect the healing in ways that are specific to the elements.
To balance elements in an important way and to prepare for the healing exercises we performed some mediations.
Increase the Flow of Earth Within You
LA093-Meditation on the pranic Energy-The Earth Element Balanced by Ether
LA051-Tune the Vagus Nerve to Cosmic Consciousness
In the healing exercises, first we included the fire element to stimulate a motivation for change. Fire can transmute consciousness into a completely different form. We practiced recognizing the sensation of including fire in the healing space.
We followed that by including the air element. Air has an effect of promoting a path for expansion. What the fire produced as changed consciousness, the air gave it a tangible form for development and expansion.
Using elements is one means of modifying tendencies in a rather general way. We can combine them and give balance to the elements that are present in a system. As with all healing, the use of elements can alter one’s path and destiny.
Another means of producing a roughly similar effect can be found in a meditation that we performed afterwards
NM0413 – Intuition and the Strength of Excellence.
This meditation uses components of mudra in an intimate configuration to produce change (Saturn) and expansion (Jupiter) in a similar way.
Later in the evening we followed up with these meditations:
LA741-Dance of Shiva
LA051-Tune the Vagus Nerve to Cosmic Consciousness
LA831-Be Intuitive
Another meditation that we did not have time for, but I recommended:
KYB117-Achieve an Experience of God

“You have not learned how to depend on the unseen and unlimited within you. Your soul has a fundamental property that when aligned with your mind gives you impact, intelligence, and effectiveness. Its fundamental property is to be saibhang ~ a self-illumined, aware, and radiant identity of God. It is not subject to anything.
Here is a collection of wisdom from Yogi Bhajan.
“There’s nothing outside of us. It’s all inside of us. Nanak said if you search outside you are wasting time. It’s inside. When we feel beautiful inside, fulfilled inside, inside our own inside, wow, its so good.” — Yogi Bhajan
In 1905 Albert Einstein published his (Wikipedia) Theory of General Relativity .
This post has been included on this site mainly because that in order to understand the theory or explain it in basic terms, one must be willing to view it as a reality whose phenomena are modified by and become a part of one’s perception of it. In that way it has some similarity to our practice of healing in the tradition of Sat Nam Rasayan. In either case, we recognize that we are immersed in a universe that defies any orthogonal or even linear representation of it. In it our perception becomes a “transverse” experience of what we commonly agree to as time and space. Practitioners of the Healing Art of Sat Nam Rasayan may be able to recognize intuitively some aspects of what Einstein’s theory explains. Physicists recognize that the fabric of time and space, i.e., space-time geometry is distorted in the presence of a strong gravitational field. In it neither space nor time behave independently nor in the linear way in which we are accustomed to observing the universe. One can still devise equations that describe the mechanics of motion and time, much like Sir Isaac Newton did centuries ago, but they must operate in a new geometry where space-time is not orthogonal nor a constant, but distorted by gravity.
It has been agreed generally among physicists that Einstein’s theory of general relativity should reliably predict the behavior of matter and energy in space-time. The question in the scientific community has been, does it describe reality? Where is the proof?
A generally agreed on basis for a proof for this lay in the measurement of “gravity waves”. Gravity waves are described as phenomena that appear in the presence of a gravitational field that produce forces that interact with matter producing local orthogonal periodic “tides” and that travel over vast distances much as electromagnetic radiation does. The proof rests in the assumption that gravity waves could be detected and that the observed behavior of matter under their influence matches the mathematical models. The problem is that gravity is a weak force and astronomical events that could produce measurable tidal distortions across a vast distance would have to be enormous, even by astrophysical standards.
Well, Professor Kip Thorne and his colleagues built an apparatus (LIGO) that measured just such an event one night in February. It was the merging of two black holes 1.3 billion light years distant that produced an energy output of about 3 solar (our sun) masses (E=mc2) of energy, over a duration of about 0.5 second. The measured tidal distortion waves matched the mathematical models perfectly, not once, but twice, in two redundant instruments located in Louisiana and in Washington State…QED
On this page below is a link to an audio recording of Professor Thorne’s lecture on the subject from March 11, 2016.
My audio recording of the event
See Caltech’s You Tube video of the same event
Kip Thorne is a professor of theoretical physics at Caltech http://www.its.caltech.edu/~kip/
He was involved with the project to build apparatus to measure gravity waves. LIGO
He consulted with the producers of the movie Interstellar regarding what happens in the vicinity of a black hole.

It’s kind of like how Arthur C Clark wrote 2001: A Space Odyssey after the movie came out. There is also an article in Scientific American

Here’s a meditation: Master Time and Space
Life leads the thoughtful man on a path of many windings.
Now the course is checked, now it runs straight again.
Here winged thoughts may pour freely forth in words,
There the heavy burden of knowledge must be shut away in silence.
But when two people are at one in their inmost hearts,
They shatter even the strength of iron or of bronze.
And when two people understand each other in their inmost hearts,
Their words are sweet and strong, like the fragrance of orchids.
— Confucius
Following is the original recipe given by Yogi Bhajan:*
In a large pot, bring 2.8 litres (3 quarts) of water to a boil. Then add:
Continue boiling for 15-20 minutes, and then add: ¼ tsp of a mild black tea (Golden Assam is recommended)
After another minute or two, add ½ pint of milk per pint of remaining liquid. The original recipe calls for cow’s milk but any type of milk is fine – cow, goat, almond, soy, hemp, etc. There is no need to measure the milk, just eyeball it.
Optional: add honey or other sweetener to taste.
Increasingly, people are choosing to cut caffeine from their diets. A wise decision for a number of reasons, but the black tea in Yogi Tea helps the ingredients amalgamate. In other words, the black tea makes Yogi Tea more potent as a healing agent. A compromise: after the spices have cooked for 20 minutes, take a tea ball or bag and swirl it around the pot a few times.
*Yogi Bhajan’s Original Recipe appears in Kundalini Yoga: The Flow of Eternal Power by Shakti Parwha Kaur Khalsa (1996).
Yogi Bhajan – April 22, 1976
Sit Straight. Spread the fingers of both hands wide with the palms facing up. Touch the sides of the tips of the sun (ring) fingers together. The hands will slightly overlap with the right little finger lower than the left. No fingers other than the sun fingers should be touching.
Place the mudra at the level of the heart center. Eyes look down toward fingers.
Chant Sa Ta Na Ma while subtly stimulating the thumb with each finger tip in sequence. Breathe slow and deep, four times a minute or less.
Meditation760422-BalancingProjectionWithIntention
31 min.
So tonight, we’ll speak to our internal self. That’s the first time you are going to do it. Please do it right. So, stage by stage we can experience. All right?
So, you see, these fingers, their nails there touch like this in the center of the heart center, right here. It’s a very proper place and you don’t have to make a hole there, don’t press it. Just simple, straight. No, no the posture itself will give you a very good posture, very good feeling if you do it right. Just put the nails together and just put those fingers together, right at the point where the chest line is, where the rib line meets and put these two ids, thumbs up, straight and put your eyes at the tip of your nose.

Yogi Bhajan – LA741 – November 11, 1992
MEDITATION TO HAVE A CLEAR SENSE OF YOURSELF AND TO BE ABLE TO MERGE WITHOUT LOSING YOURSELF.
Sit with a straight spine in a cross legged meditation position. Put your hands in front of your shoulders. Your palms are flat and horizontal the fingers spread and bent as if holding a flat and wide champagne glass on a stem.

Two workshops were conducted on May 15 and 16 at Kundalini Yoga Park Slope.
Friday, Healing and the Subtle Body explored the 9th body.
The ninth body, the Subtle Body, is the fundamental component of our forming a healing relation with our event. Transcending space and time, it can give us a direct experience of something that is not ourself.
The subtle body transcends our physical existence and survives our incarnation. Through our subtle body we can know the unknown. In relation with another person’s subtle body, we can know something of that person’s existence. The subtle body is integral to healing in our tradition.
Meditations included:
M0512-890312-For Mastery of Time and Space
NM0190-19951031-Connect Yourself to the Reality
LA097-790327-YONI KRIYA
Saturday, Healing and the Radiant Body explored the tenth body.
The tenth body – Radiant Body
Through the radiant body we choose how we relate with ourselves and others. The radiant body projects our presence externally to others and internally to ourselves. In this tradition, we practice developing a healing presence. With a strong radiant body, our very presence has a profound healing impact on our environment.
Meditation:
NM0163-20010618-Polish the Radiant Body
Yogi Bhajan March 27, 1979
Sit in easy pose with a straight spine.
Relax the arms down with the elbows bent. Draw the forearms up and in toward each other until the hands meet in front of the chest at the level of the heart. Press the thumbs and little fingers of the opposite hands together. The other fingers remain separated. Point the fingers out in front of the body.

Yogi Bhajan – NM190 – New Mexico October 31, 1995
Left elbow down, forearm forward at heart, palm up.
Right elbow a little forward front, at shoulder level. Forearm forward, palm down, inside the line of the shoulder.
Eyes closed.
