Babaji jovially singing "We are Shiva"
I AM
SHIVA, YOU ARE SHIVA, WE ARE SHIVA..........................
Namah shivay! Although words are insufficient to describe the goodness, cheer, divinity and divine celebration this video has. This is one Shiv Yog video you would never want to miss. Baba ji sings, dances, cheers, jumps, claps and makes sadhaks most happy to the tunes of the infinite Shiva. Sit with your family and watch this now.
Interestingly, it was only a few days back that Acharya Ishan Shivanand ji in two of his addresses to the sadhaks on facebook had commented upon Baba ji's limited stay on the planet, reminding each Shiv Yog sadhak of the fixed time for which Enlightened Siddhas remain on the earthly plane. Here, in this video shot in the ongoing London shivir on the third day, it is almost as if Baba ji gives another reminder.
His lines tug at the strings of the heart straight
"TILL THE TIME I AM ON EARTH, I WILL BE HAPPY. I WILL TRY TO TOUCH THE HEARTS OF ASA MANY PEOPLE AS I CAN. I AM GOING TO BRING THE LIGHT OF GOD WHICH IS THERE WITHIN EVERYONE. WE ALL REINCARNATIONS OF SHIVA."
He then breaks into a divine jig, a lovely prospect which sends shivers down the spine of every seeker who connects to his cosmic wavelength. One can't help but smile at Baba ji's youthful insouciance, his smiling innocence, the genuineness of his emotions and the bona fide intentions of his to ensure that every human being attains supreme happiness and eventually divine bliss.

HAPPY WOMEN'S DAY
Message from Ashram on Women's Day.
THIS WOMEN'S DAY, BEGIN PRACTICAL EMPOWERMENT; HONOUR THE WOMEN IN YOUR HOUSE THROUGH COMPASSION
Namah shivay! It is Women's Day today and being Shiv Yog Sadhaks, it is incumbent upon each of us to reaffirm our commitment to uphold the dignity of the Shakti - in ourselves, in others, in society, in the community and in the entire world. The process starts from within as every individual is a heterogeneous blend of Male and Female energy. The concept of gender duality is misleading. The creative, emotional and wisdom aspects in every human being are the characteristic manifestation of the Shakti and so every human is constituted by a proportion of feminine virtue. Shiv Yog sadhna strives to balance the Shiva and the Shakti elements within us, symbolised by rationale and creativity respectively on the superficial level. Through every prayer, we seek to create matter and creation is nothing but an outcome of the Shakti, the settling of energy in physical form.
Baba ji has always been a votary of the concept which seeks to accord preeminence to women. He holds that if we cannot respect the living manifestation of the Shakti which is a woman, it's no use appeasing the trinity of Goddess in prayer to invoke strength, wealth and wisdom. First, one has to learn to serve what is physically before us. The idea behind every ritual & prayer is to facilitate the incorporation of the deeper spiritual meaning in the ritual & prayer.
Every human being is gifted with the best mother in the world as the compassionate incarnation of the Goddess. Now, it is up to us whether to redeem the opportunity to offer utmost reverence to her, be an obedient & devoted progeny or to junk this grand opportunity to seek and learn unconditional love from her.
BE A SHIVYOGI SON/DAUGHTER
Likewise, many a household is presented an opportunity to invoke the blessings of the Divine Goddess when a girl is born there. Now, it is upto the occupants of the house, whether to reject the Goddess which has taken birth as Bala Tripursundari or to welcome the soul and consider her rearing as a chance to serve the Shakti herself. That would become true Sewa of Durga Shakti.
BE A SHIV YOGI PARENT TO THE GIRL CHILD
Finally, lucky families also get the wonderful chance to welcome the Goddess as Lakshmi, the harbinger of materialistic & spiritual wealth and abundance. There also lies the option of either keeping her as a Goddess-in-law more than a daughter-in-law or engaging in unreasonable bemoaning of the inability to control her. A thousand tricks to placate the Goddess Lakshmi fail to match the single action of professing love to your daughter-in-law.
BE A SHIV YOGI HUSBAND/"IN-LAW"
Let this Women's Day mark Liberation from the entrenched feudal mindset and let us lend every woman the honour she has always been deserving of. Any society, community and nation cannot traverse on the path of evolution, growth & prosperity till its women remain in the shackles of patriarchal subjugation, oppression & suppression.
So it is time to act holistically even in so far as treating a woman, the womb of creation, is concerned.
Our Guru has treated every woman in his life - his mother, his wife, his daughter and his daughter-in-law - no less than mortal incarnates of the immortal Goddess. Ishan ji too has modelled himself on these lines. Let us also follow the example of Baba ji in this regard.
Happy Emancipation!
Happy Woman's Day!

Queries of sadhaks--------- 29
These are the questions aswered by Shivyog foundation. Reason of posting them here is may be some one else will be having the same question will be benefited too.
Q. Do we need to do mata ki chowki before
doing Durga saptshati?
A.
Namah shivay ji. There is no such compulsion.
Blessings.
Q. Humm shiv nahin shiv ke das
ho saktay hain anukaran nahin anusaran karo, it is wrong philosophy to think
that I am shiva.
A. Namah shivay ji. Baat Shiv ki
barabari ki nahi hai. Jab uske liye prem itna umadta hai tab dvait ki bhavna
samapt ho jati hai. Sadhna ki gehri awaastha me Jab aap jaenge tab aapko isi ki
anubhooti hogi. Baki vaad vivaad mein to tark deke hum kuch bhi siddh
kar sakte hain. Jo baat lkkhi gai hai wah ek gehri sadhna ka ehsaas hai, sirf
likhne maatr ka kathan nahi. Sadhna kijiye aur iski anubhooti apko swayam hogi.
Shivratri ki hardik shubhkaamnaaein. Namah shivay.
Second A. Reach the infinite in you. You are the whole
universe in you. Discover the supreme out of you. Cultivate your heart with
love. Feed your soul with peace. Feel the presence of boundless energy in you.
You are the light. Attract the positive around you.
Awaken your consciousness and mind through knowledge. Control your anger, win
over conceit, battle the deceit in you and fight the lust. For these are your
deeply-rooted internal foes. One, who wins over them, cuts-off the web of karma
and attains peace. Be patient at bad times, and prudent at good. Serve, meditate
and pray. Eventually, you will discover the Shiva in you. Happy Shiva Raatri.
Q. kya shivratri vart krna
jruri hota h? Is vart ka kya mahttav hai please reply?
A. Namah shivay ji. Yes Vrat is
important but Vrat is from negativity. Food comes much later. By negativity it
means criticising yourself & others, judging, being jealous and seeing
others in a perspective other than godly. On Mahashivratri, the biggest Vrat is
from seeing the negative traits in others. Blessings.
Q. Is this (MRIT SANJEEVNI
MANTRA) the same mantra as divine healing beeja
mantra?
A. Namah shivay ji. This is a different
mantra than the usual Healing one. It's the complete mantra of Lord
Mahanrityunjay. Blessings
Q. Thanks Namah Shivay, but
tell na which mantra it is because I think I already have it. Is that Goa
shivir mantra?
A. Namah shivay ji. This mantra was
given for the first time in Thailand 2015 shivir. Blessings.
Q . Baba ji kehte hah ki gujre
hue logo ka jinka death ho gaya hah unki photo ghar main lagane k matlab ham
unka prithvi tatwa chura k rakh rahe hah or unka aawahan kar rahe hah to firr
baba ji ne apne guru nityananda ji ka photo kyu ham sabko dikha rahe hah.
A. Namah shivay ji. Jo Guru ban gaya wah
to shunya ho gaya. Wah brahmand ki oorja mein sammillit ho gaya. Uska aadi aur
ant nahi. wah anant ho gaya. Jitne bhi Siddha Guru Hain wah is prithvi ke niyam
aur kaydon se upar uth chuke hain. unko chahey hum tasweer roop mein poojein ya
man mein, baat ek hi hai. Kintu jab tak manushya ko aatm saakshaatkaar nahi ho
jata, tab tak us par yah niyam lagoo hotey hain. Namah shivay
