ABOUT THE TECHNIQUE
All your life, you have been running a race against others.
Now, you will run against yourself! This technique puts you in touch with the tremendous energy inside of you. There is an immense reservoir of energy inside us that most of us are not even aware of. If you know how to tap into this vast energy source, you can simply go beyond what you now think are your limitations.
Intelligence is nothing but functioning at the highest level of energy available to us. During Shakti Sagar meditation, you unlock the resources of Intelligence.
INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1 (20 minutes): Stand in silence with your eyes closed. Concentrate your entire awareness upon the Vishuddhi chakra, located in your throat region. When you do this, the cosmic energy enters through the vishuddhi chakra and becomes a tremendous source of energy for you.
Now, standing in place, slowly begin to walk. If you find this difficult, you can stand behind a chair or use some support. Start walking slowly, very slowly in the same spot where you are standing. Start slowly, then increase your pace. Keep walking faster and faster in the same spot. Push your limits only to the extent that you can, with no discomfort. At all times focus on the vishuddhi. You will be able to feel the energy coming from it. The important thing is never to slow down at any point in time but always keep your eyes closed, and your awareness on the throat region. When you do this, you automatically absorb the energy that is generated during the movement. Your body has tremendous potential that you have never used! When you enter totally into this meditation, you will find that the higher levels of energy open up. So keep walking. Let the energy rise!
Step 2 (10 minutes): Relax.
Stop walking and just sit down quietly wherever you are.
Keep your eyes closed. Focus all your attention on the Vishuddhi chakra. This will help assimilate and distribute the energy you have released during the walking. Materials like silk, gold and diamonds are excellent storehouses for energy. During the meditation, if you wear these around your neck, they will absorb and retain the released energy for a longer time.
