AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

When I sit for Meditation, concentrating on the over mind – I feel a bright luminous Grace over me, like a waterfall, and I am standing beneath it. I feel as if my face, especially the upper part of my face, is glowing from Within. ๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ[…]

But while with closed eyes, I look down – I don’t see the rest of my body in that light. I have observed this happening multiple times while I sit for Dhyana. Please help me understand my experience.

The descent of Light is generally and for a long time in the head region. Later, it descends below if there is an opening of the heart towards the Divine through love and lower down in the vital regions through service of the Divine.ย 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

After we discussed a few days ago, I started chanting the “Om Namoh Shivay” Mantra, using the Mala that I had put on the Samadhi when I was there last time. Then I came across some info (I don’t know how info, right or wrong, comes across YouTube University, when you are thinking about it). Anyway, it said that one should not chant the mantra as it is, but drop ‘OM’ from it, as it takes you to very high knowledge. ๐Ÿ•‰๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ[…]
