Welcome back. This has come up a few times and so I want to cover it here for everybody and it's about par avasta and how do I organize myself between doing

00:16

the work of getting into HRV resonance sitting very still oming into the chakras and then enjoying in this after effect po state that's what para avasta is how do I organize ize that how long do I take that

00:34

enjoyment and then how can I switch back and forth and so let's get into it. [Music]

00:57

So very simply, every single emotion, every single thing that we feel, we're going to feel it and it's going to go up up up. It's going to peak and then it's

01:14

going to start to fall until we come back. Not quite the same place, but a similar place where we started.

Okay? So, we're going to feel something.

Feel it. Feel it.

feel it. That's as much as

01:30

I can possibly feel it. And then it starts to drop.

So I'm sitting in meditation. I get first of all comfortable, very very comfortable.

If I'm straining to sit, then I'm already

01:47

fighting myself. I don't want to do that.

I want to be as comfortable as possible. Then I'm going to start doing my HRV resonance.

I'm going to drop my breath rate below seven breaths per

02:02

minute because that is going to ensure that I waken my parasympathetic system. And I'm going to sit very still.

And so that will allow me to notice some of the four proofs.

02:18

Those proofs are showing me, tada, you in this moment are out of stress. You have awakened your parasympathetic system.

And if you keep going down this road, you will encounter the freeze

02:36

response. Oh my goodness.

So, hallelujah. I've got some four proofs.

And somewhere in here, I'm going to do some m japa in each of the chakras. Each of the six chakras up to the medulla.

So

02:51

I feel the first chakra into it. Feel the second into it all the way up to the medulla and then always come back down from the medulla all the way back down.

That's some chop. Okay.

So I'm going to do that

03:08

and after I find this really delicious, wonderful, peaceful, calm, tranquil, even joyful state. I'm going to sit there and enjoy it.

That is the parah

03:25

avasta. Very simply, the paravasa we could just say we're just enjoying what we came for.

We're not going to work, work, work the whole time. We want to work and enjoy.

And so I start feeling that wonderful

03:40

sensation of enjoying the peace and the tranquility of my meditation. I feel it some more.

I feel it some more. I feel it some more and it really peaks for me.

I really reach the peak. That's as much

03:56

as I can actually enjoy today. And then I notice it starts to go down.

Now, as I notice that it starts to go down, I'm going to reach this point. Oh, it's definitely going down.

Now, if I

04:13

keep holding on to it, I'm going to start gritting my teeth. Oh, I'm trying to enjoy this as much as I can.

I'm going to sit here as long as I can. So, after this point, it starts going down

04:28

too far and I start to get a little uncomfortable. I start to get not so tranquil, not so peaceful.

So what am I doing trying to hold on to something which is slipping out of my hand? I've already passed my

04:44

peak. And so this right here, right in this range, this is where I can let go.

Let go of trying to enjoy that wonderful thing that you found, whatever it was.

04:59

Maybe it's just hands hot and heavy. Maybe it's peace.

Maybe it's bliss along the spine. Whatever it was, I'm starting to lose it.

It's really slipping away instead of just, "Oh my god, I have to

05:15

sit here and and I have to hold this state." No, no, you did that. It peaked.

And now you can let go. Where do we go next?

wonderfully. We can go back and do

05:30

some more of the HRV resonance, the sitting very still, the Om chapa in the chakras and wonderful things will come right back. We might find the same wonderful things.

We might find new wonderful things and we will feel those

05:48

and they will come up up up up and they will peak and then we'll notice that they start to decline again. And somewhere in here, this is where we'll let go to go back and do more.

And now you have this glorious cycle. Do and be

06:07

and do and be. And it's so wonderful because we don't always know how to get deep.

This is how you do it. If you just sit in the silence, it's not going to come to you.

If you only do the work, you're not enjoying it. You put these

06:22

two together and oh my goodness, we don't even know where you're going to end up. You're going to end up somewhere so beautifully deep and you will understand.

Oh my god, it's so easy. Doobydoo.

And so now you know there's going to be

06:39

a peak. So every single time you sit there to enjoy something, you will notice, oh, there it is.

there's that natural peak and then it's starting to come down and this is where I can let go and move on and do something again or do

06:56

something new. So, it's very simple.

It's very straightforward. But sometimes if we don't say these things, it takes us much longer to figure them out.

So, I want to shorten that time for you and make it very, very easy right away. So,

07:11

I hope you loved this. If you did, be sure to hit that bell down below so I can see all of you next time.
