Putting Money Back into the Hands of the Spiritual People - Sri Siva speaks
Born
in Tamil Nadu, India, Sri Siva is the first scholar-mystic from
the Tamil Siddha tradition to travel to the West. Sri Siva studied
with gurus in the Himalayas and South India. He holds two masters
degrees in literature from India and a doctorate in religion from
the University of Pittsburgh, where he taught meditation courses.
As the Siddha mantras have never been published, the mystical teachings
can only be passed on by word of mouth. The first individual to
be given permission to teach these meditations was Wayne Dyer. Sri
Siva, who remained in silence for a long period, is now coming forth
to teach this powerful wisdom himself.
In general, spiritual people shy away from money and this is a
historic truth. Examine a statement like the following: It is easier
for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich
man to enter the kingdom of God. Examine the life of the Buddha
that led him to leave the palace and his wife and child in order
to become a monk. Somehow the world has put god on one side and
money on the other. You go to church/temple/mosque and all of a
sudden you become very grave. You seem to think that god might love
long faces because your concept of god is that he is a kill-joy
and a peeping Tom. It is time that spiritual people change their
negative attitude towards money and material life.
My commitment in this lifetime is to put money and power back into
the hands of the spiritual people. Currently, money is in the wrong
hands - those of people who are totally unconscious. These rich
people are self-centered, egocentric and want to grow richer and
richer at any cost. They don't even realize that they have more
money than they could possibly spend in this lifetime. They have
no sympathy for the 3 billion human beings who go to bed hungry.
There is no willingness to share their wealth. Conversely, the poor
and the spiritual people want to share whatever they have with those
who are in need. Unfortunately, because these people don't have
money, their sympathy has very little impact.
The World is Changing
We are living on the threshold of a New Age in which there will
be a paradigm shift. It is my prediction that by 2004, money and
power are going to be in the hands of the spiritual community. I
need to prepare the world for this change. Fundamentally, spiritual
people should come out of the closet and become more active. It
is important for them to understand that if you meditate for longer
hours and spend a lot of time reflecting on god, over a period of
time you will become other-worldly. In some cases, it may even create
depression and a lack of interest in being active.
It is important that all spiritual people should do something to
remain grounded. They can practice a martial art or some other form
of physical exercise that will keep them alert. Also, get rid of
the concept that this world is an illusion and it is important to
focus attention on god rather than the world. You must realize that
the world with all its complexity and silliness is still the creation
of god. Think that when you are having a good meal, you are connecting
with god. To run away from the world is to run away from god.
Some Tips to Radically Change Your Mind
Perhaps you have been a monk or ascetic for many lifetimes. In
those lifetimes, your priority had only been god. You rejected relationship,
worldly pleasures, politics, etc. in favor of a reclusive and ascetic
life. These strong memories from past lives should be erased. I
have developed a meditation for this problem. It involves meditating
with the sound Thiruneelakantam. This sound is what I call a Karma-
busting mantra. The sound will work like a pill. As soon as the
sound gets diffused into your throat area, you will experience the
evaporation of your past karma. You will then no longer have the
desire to stick with your old car. Miraculously, things will change
and then you will end up acquiring a Mercedes. Over the past few
years, I have helped many people to buy a Mercedes, build a home
or move to a new apartment.
In the year 2001, I will be putting out a lot of my energy to work
with spiritual people. The world will not see any substantial progress
unless money and power change hands. From time immemorial, money
has always remained in the hands of the wrong people. No more can
we allow this to happen. Already the world has suffered. Let us
bring all the spiritual people together and work towards this goal.
Over the last few years, Wayne Dyer and Deepak Chopra have done
important work in this area. I congratulate both of them for their
extraordinary work. I gave the Ah meditation particularly
to Wayne Dyer. I am glad that it is being practiced all over the
world. I just came back from London and I heard many people speak
about their success with the Ah meditation. As we go
along, I will reveal more secrets about transforming your procreative
energy into money and power energy.
Ara Kara: The Technique for Power, Money and Enlightenment
The mantra Ara Kara is an exceptional one from the
Tamil Siddha Tradition. It will fundamentally change your mind to
have a positive attitude to accomplish anything that you need in
life. Historically the technique has been used at times when there
have been major shifts of power. The technique will dethrone heartless
dictators and bad rulers and establish dharma or righteousness.
It is my desire to start a global Ara Kara Meditation
Group at specific times of the day in order to bring in the new
world order. The group will use the Internet to facilitate the change
of power.
On July 10,2001, from 7:30-9:30 pm, Sri Siva will be speaking
in a free event at The Unity Church of Portland, 4525 SE Stark St.
The topic of the lecture is Destiny, Money, Soulmates, God.
