——Yogi Bhajan， 1979
Harbhajan Singh was born at sunset on August 26th, 1929. This is a small village in Kot Harkan, which belongs to Gujaranwala area. At that time, it was part of India, and now it is part of Pakistan.
He is the first boy born after the whole family prayed for a boy for 25 years. One of them prayed and promised that this son would be taken to Vishnu? Devi cave's steps, in order to express gratitude for his birth, brought him a direct experience of the holy land.
As a result, Harbhajan Singh, who was still a baby at that time, was tied to his father's chest and hid under his fluttering beard. Was taken to the steps leading to Vaishnoo Devi Cave to fulfill this sacred promise. Although young Harbhajan Singh was born only a few days, not months and years, his first pilgrimage, sacred prayer and determination to fulfill his promise all constitute his whole philosophy and life experience. From then on, he began to visit every altar and saint he could go to and study all the doctrines, classics and technologies of various religions in the world. childhood
Harbhajan Singh was born in a landlord family, and his whole industry includes the whole village. His birthday is a festival celebrated by the whole village. As long as he is taken away, the poor people in the village on the road will get a lot of gold coins and wheat several times as many as gold coins. From the tradition of giving food to the poor on his birthday, he got this early sense of service and giving food to others. His early education was unique because he was the only boy in a Catholic girls' school, which provided the best education in that area. He kept asking the elder nuns some profound and unanswerable questions, which upset them.
Saint Hazara Singh
YogiBhajan studied Kundalini yoga, tantric yoga and Gong meditation under the guidance of then Kundalini yoga and Mahan tantric master Sant Hazara Singh. From some stories told by Yogi Bhajan, we have some impressions of Sant Hazara Singh and how he trained Yogi Bhajan.
Keep the altitude.
On one occasion, young Harhajan Singh went to a sports meeting in order to see more clearly in the crowd. He jumped up and pulled a hot air pipe, but the pipe broke, causing half of the wall and ceiling to hit him. His injury was serious because half of his body was temporarily paralyzed and he was taken to the hospital at once. The accident happened when he had just finished his middle school final exam. Under the British education system at that time, if he didn't take the final exam, he had to repeat one year in school. Sant Hazara Singh went to the hospital to see him during the exam. When he knew that the young man had to study at school for another year, he insisted that it was intolerable for such a clever young man to waste another year at school, and he had to take the exam. Harbhajan Singh was not only in unbearable pain, but he could not write or even speak. He tried to refuse, and the doctor objected, but Sant Hazara Singh did not accept any objection. Harbhajan Singh was carried to the examination room on a stretcher. Sant Hazara Singh came forward to persuade the examiner to allow Harba Jan Singh to take the exam. One person reads the question to him, and another person writes down the answer. He passed the exam and recovered. But most importantly, Yogi Bhajan felt the principle of "keeping height" forever. His teacher's uncompromising persistence pushed him out of his own restrictions and out of the restrictions imposed on you by others. He learned to keep a high altitude in the relationship with infinity rather than finiteness, and never give in an inch.
"Life itself is not important, what matters is your courage in life."
Challenge. Challenge.
On another occasion, Yogi Bhajan told a story about Sant Hazara's incredible test on him.
Once, when they were walking together, they saw a big tree. Sant Hazara said, "Bajan, you are really strong. Let me see if you can climb this tree. " "Young Harbhajan Singh proudly climbed the tree with his own strength. When he was resting on a branch, Sant Hazara Singh looked up and said to him, "Good, wait there now until I come back. "
The young yoga student sat there, steadfastly waiting for his tutor to come back. He had to wait for three days, drink dew from leaves and sleep on branches until Sant Hazara Singh came back. When his teacher came back, the young yogi didn't get a word of praise or care about how to tide over the difficulties.
But Yogi Bhajan said of his teacher:
"He didn't make me a man; He is not a saint; Or a great man, but a real person. I can't repay him with anything in this world, any offering, any praise, any gratitude. He accomplished the greatest work. I once said I was just a nut (fool), but he tightened all my nuts and made me the best. This is why disaster is my breakfast, tragedy is my lunch, and change is my dinner. You can write this down, it will be useful to you. Is there anything else that can bother you? If you can eat all three things and digest them, you will be the best among people. "
Commitment commitment
In the hands of Sant Hazara Singh, Yogi Bhajan may have learned the painful moments of his life. 1947, Sant Hazara Singh announced to his student Harba Jan Singh that he (Sant Hazara Singh) would enter a stage of "living hell" and said, "Your order is that we will never meet face to face again." Sanchi later became a freedom fighter for many years and gained a great reputation. He continued to live a married life. Before he left his body, his dedicated and standardized students always followed his orders. Yogi Bear
Yogi bear's Magic Skill (Avatar)
Yogi Bhajan acquired what he called "the magic of water" when he was young-the ability to control the element of water. Here he describes how he got rid of this "curse of depravity".
It's funny when I have all these abilities. But one day I made a big mistake.
A large group of us were sitting together at that time. Suddenly, dark clouds gathered over our heads and it began to rain at once. But the two acres on which we sat were not wet by a drop of rain. Everyone is very happy. Everyone regards "yogi bear" as a great saint. Then, when we were eating Lange after dinner, a very old man came up to me and asked, "It's you, isn't it?" I said, "What? I didn't do anything. " He said, "You hope it doesn't rain there, don't you?" I said, "Maybe it will be inconvenient for all of us. We are all intoxicated with God's happiness and joy. " He said, "Do you see these trees and plants? You took their water. Why did you do this? " I said, "I didn't do anything. I made a wish, yes, I don't deny it. I really hope it doesn't rain here, "he said." "Your wish should come true?" I said. "You mean my wish has come true?" He said, "Are you blind? Have a look, "I said. "yes. But I have many people, thousands. I can ask them to water this place tomorrow. I can tell them now. I have to say something, "he said. "Oh, that's great. So, you can control water, right? " I said, "even if it is," he said, "then when your soul is not free, he has to cross the water." I said, "Well, just take a bath. What's the difference? " He said, "Half of life lives in water. The soul must go through the cycle of all those aquatic animals. Do you want this? " I said, "Wait a minute, what did you say?" He said, "I'm telling you something you don't understand. If you have a magical power, a control over an element, you must experience this element in your life. " I said, "Oh, I see".
So I went to Amisah and stood in front of the golden palace. I said, "Bless you who taught me all the knowledge, and may I never learn those tricks again." I gave up from then on, that's all.
It is acceptable to interfere with God's will for a better purpose. If not, you are wrong. Yes, you are promoting. Yes, this is sacred. Any other control, direct, indirect, spiritual, linguistic or unrealistic-you are creating cause and effect, and after you start the cause, you have to face the result. But you can't have it as a teacher. Therefore, you can't start that business. This is the law of life. Don't break it. Just like when you are carrying a basket, you should carefully put the bottom down so that things will not spill.
Kundalini Yoga Master
Kundalini Yoga Master
Under the strict supervision and guidance of Sant Hazara Singh, Yogi Bhajan achieved perfection in Kundalini Yoga and Tantra Yoga. When he was only 16 years old, his teacher announced that he had become a Kundalini yoga master.
Yoga training, yoga training
In addition to learning Kundalini and Tantra yoga from St. Hazarasingh. Yogi bear told yogi bear after all. Acharya Narinder Dev of Smriti studied yoga, and his knowledge of hatha yoga and the function and balance of nervous system proved to be of great value to his teaching in the United States, because he found that most people have nervous system disorders.
The world-famous Shivananda Monastery in Rishikesh, Mi Zu Ki (there used to be famous masters Swami Chidanada, Swami Vishnu Devananda? And Swami Satchidananda laid the spiritual truth for the eternal truth of the famous Vedanta philosophy. This sacred source inspired Harba Jan Singh.
family life
When he was a child, Harbhajan Singh heard the inspiring story of the Sikh guru and the history of Sikh religion from his grandfather, which formed the values he would share with his yoga students in the future. Harba Zhan? Singh went on to complete his formal education, became a government official and had his own family life. He married Sardarni inderjit Kaur in 1953 and raised three children together.
Guru ram dass Guru
One of the most important experiences in Harbhajan Singh's life is that he met his most important personal guru Ramdas. This is the turning point of his future and home. As a government official, he was assigned to different parts of India. At 1960, he was assigned to the area around Amritsar.
During his tenure, he was determined to seize this opportunity to clean the marble floor of Harimandar Sahib in the Golden Temple. As a Sikh, he knows the importance of the Golden Temple and the holy city of Amr Tesal. But beyond that, his personal spiritual pursuit convinced him that only through humility and selfless service can he achieve his goal. For many years, he was a student of spiritual and religious teachers. He also worked as a teacher for many years, and gained the magical power (divine power) possessed by a perfect yogi. But he knows that he needs teachers, guidance and gurus in his life, which enables him to transcend the bondage between any individual and the secular. He longs for the ultimate blessing and understanding of infinite love, so that he can piece together all the puzzles in his life into a complete picture. Therefore, for four and a half years, this government official named Harbhajan Singh went to clean the ground of Harmandar Sahib, the Golden Temple, every day. By scrubbing the floor of the temple where he loved the guru, he realized that he was indeed the blessed son of guru Ramdas. He used to say that he was him because he scrubbed the floor of the golden palace, not because of any other title or degree.
West to west.
Many things eventually led Harbhajan Singh, a customs officer at Bali International Airport, to leave the same airport in September 1968 and start a new chapter in his life. It was a Canadian gentleman in the customs parking lot in New Delhi who finally contributed to the incident. He happened to complain that he couldn't find a yoga teacher to teach yoga at the University of Toronto in Canada. Harbhajan Singh told him about his qualifications in yoga, and the position was left to him. Soon he was ready to leave.
When he arrived in London, the flight lost his luggage. He had nothing but a small bag of a French flight, which contained a tape recorder and a recording of Gulbani Kiltan sung by Manny of Surh. He never found his luggage again. So he entered Canada in his suit and went bankrupt completely, only getting a message: Mr. Canada, who introduced his professorship, died in a traffic accident.
When we review these events, the role of the "hand of the guru" is obvious. Harbhajan Singh has arrived in the west, and now he is about to start the journey arranged for him by his guru. He soon found a job as a clerk in a big publishing house, and taught yoga in a local yoga monastery and a housing equipment center called Rochdale, which was affectionately called Yogi Bhajan by the students there.
1968 65438+In February, an old friend living in New Delhi, USA invited Yogi Bhajan to spend the weekend in Los Angeles. Yogi Bhajan immediately realized that Los Angeles is a sports center for young people who pursue self-knowledge, self-discovery and express true meaning and value. He believes that the guru brought him there, because he was fully prepared in knowledge and experience, and there is a technology that can satisfy these desires to explore the soul. He began to teach Kundalini yoga, first at the East-West Cultural Center, and then at the furniture store at 8800 Meros Street.
Mahan tantric Bai tantric yoga master
197 1 year, Yogi BHajan became a master of white horse tantric yoga. There can only be one living Mahathir tantra at any time. When Santar Zarathustra Singh was alive, he was a Mahan tantric. When yogi bear followed Santar Sarrasin. When I was studying, there was another student named Lama Rilanpo. What time? 197 1 When Lama Li Lanpo died, this authoritative cassock fell on Yogi Bhajan. And authorized Mahatantra to take charge.
Manhan tantra is the operation of white tantra yoga. In white tantric yoga meditation, participants will expel a lot of negative energy from the subconscious. In order to prevent the discharged negative energy from being projected on the partner, the tantric Sect of Manchu-Han banquet will use its own energy circle to filter out the negative energy. For more information about white tantra yoga, please see the chapter on mind and meditation. )
Saheb, Siri Singh
He lives in all aspects and is ready for all kinds of roles he will play in the west. He was a spiritual mentor, organizer and manager of a huge worldwide association and business network, and eventually became the main authority of the religion and management of Sikhism in the West. 1970, Yogi Bhajan became the first Siri Singh Sahib, and was authorized to create the Sikh Management Committee in the Western Hemisphere. His unprecedented strong leadership laid an excellent standard and produced a Buddhism deeply rooted in the community it served.
A man of peace, a messenger of peace
As Yogi Bhajan spread the science and practice of Kundalini yoga in the western hemisphere and other places, he was recognized as a world leader and a warrior for world peace and healing. He took an active part in inter-religious dialogue. 1in June, 985, he founded the first international day of peace prayer. This anniversary has become a day to pray for world peace together, and attracted the participation of many world celebrities in the fields of religion, politics and humanitarian concern.
Yogi Bhajan learned wisdom from many teachers in his life, and also absorbed nutrition from the cultural traditions experienced in an ancient and noble society. He used the norms obtained from the science of yoga, combined with simple knowledge of diet practice, which came from a culture still related to his own folk medicine. All this combined his genius and wisdom with the consciousness gained from Ramdas, a master of temple service. This man, Harbhajan Singh, is a messenger of truth shaped by the guru, fulfilling the mission of service and guidance, and creating a group of people who will eventually become leaders and teachers in the Aquarius era. (Excerpted from "A man named Siri Singh Saheb" 3HO website)
Kundalini yogi of Professor Bajan.
Kundalini Yoga by Professor Yogi Bhajan
When he first started teaching Kundalini yoga, he announced: "I came to create teachers, not to attract students. Thanks to the grace of my guru, I serve those souls who will serve the Aquarius era.
His teaching system is called "Kundalini Yoga of Professor Yogi Bhajan".
With perfect perception and elegance, he created a temple of institutions and knowledge to serve the consciousness of Aquarius era. A student asked him, "How can I understand you more deeply?" "He replied," I am my teacher. Read them and practice them, and you will understand me. "Through his sacrifice, dedication and insight, he left us a legacy, not a family; A road, not a personality.
Yogi Bhajan left his body at 9 pm on June 6, 2004, at the age of 75. He died in California, New Mexico. Commemorative ceremonies were held all over the world to mourn this outstanding teacher and humanist. The following is part of the recording of his last speech on June 3, 2004:
"God and soul are eternal. We must go. One day you will reach that stage. The body will become the eternal soul ... let us know that we are the infinite light of God ... life is to live for each other. Live for each other. "
"God and soul are eternal. We are destined to reach the other shore. One day you will reach this stage. The body will become the eternal soul ... let us know that we are A Ring of Endless Light of God ... and life is to live for each other. It just lives for each other. "
