The Sadhana of Positive Attitude and Non-Resistance to the Present

The Raw Food eating and Yoga practice Sadhana leads to a more conscious awareness of mental processes. This opens the door to a power of triangulation where the Attitude is the third major point.

Core Analogy:
Consider a song which is playing on the radio as you walk in a room and you find rough and a little grating. Since the song is initially disliked you begin to resist it and wish that it would end. This resistance to the song is expressed in a resistance pattern or tension in the body as well.

But then all the sudden you realize that the voice of the singer sounds a bit familiar and then you recognize it to be your favorite artist. In fact you were listening to a brand new song by your favorite singer. Instantly upon this realization your disposition toward the song changes. You soon feel yourself accepting the music deep into your body and listening/receiving the song with gratitude. Soon you are gently swaying to the music and happy to be listening to the song which is by now recognized to be quite good.

This analogy is helpful on many fronts in understanding how a positive attitude can create your reality as you go through your life one present moment at a time.

First of all the “song” can be any “person in your life” whom you initially resist because perhaps that person has a negative energetic pattern and you are initially repulsed. But then as you look a little closer at the person there seems to be something that you recognize not as being deserved of scorn, but rather of love. And with an open heart and love in your eyes you enter the field of that person and instantly they are transformed to lovable and beautiful spiritual beings on the path to self-improvement and doing their best.

This is how a positive attitude operates to form an enlightened energy field.

Overview of the Spinal Cord

The other one of the overviews is that between heaven and earth, the spinal column—the spinal cord is the bridge, the energetic bridge that is able to bridge the energy—the earth energy, the heavenly energy—and it does that in steps. I want to give you the big picture and the big picture is that cosmic energy, cosmic radiation energy is a very high powered frequency. Cosmic meaning heavenly—but not just heavenly in—I mean literally of the cosmos, basically the radiation that the cosmic energy that exist out in the universe, meaning that the energy of the divine, but that—you know this is real—this is real energy, but this cosmic energy is very high-powered and we as little human beings are unable to handle it, unable to receive it.

The analogy is that you take an electrical machine and it has to be transformed, it has to be able to be received. So the first way of looking at this is that the energy has to be reduced to that you can use it because in the form that it is, it’s like trying to use a bolt of lightning, it’s way to powerful. That’s a very good analogy, the bolt of lightning, because that’s a natural, tight cosmic force. When we speak of cosmic force, it’s being other worldly powerful, that’s what we need. A bolt of lightning it is said if you could harness it and store it, which you can’t do, one bolt could power a city. This is the analogy of energy as it is in the universe being too big for our little bodies and our little nervous systems to handle because our nervous system is an electrical—electromagnetic system, meaning it’s like wiring a building. Your nerves conduct electricity, that’s what they do and your body’s controlling itself, one of the ways is electromagnetism, in other words, through electricity.

Sadhana

The Raw Food Yogi has a Raw Food-Yoga Sadhana and this is the foundation for his success. My Sadhana is that I practice Astanga Yoga every day except Saturday and that I eat only 100% Raw food. This to me is as much of a spiritual practice as a health regiment, and yet it is surely the healthiest regiment in the world. When I consider my Sadhana, I feel very deep spiritual feelings where the Sadhana is seen as the God’s Personal Vehicle to go and do as a vessel of Natual Law.

And it has been the Sadhana aspect of my practice that is the most important. When it is a spiritual practice, it just feels different than a regular “workout”. It may be possible to skip a “workout” pretty easily but less likely to try to fool the divine universal

Any body can have a Sadhana. What I hope to inspire is that the Sadhana of eating Raw Food and doing vigorous Yoga practice is the most powerful for healing and restoring.

Sadhana does not have to start out as 100% Raw and practicing yoga 2 hours everyday immediately. Actually it is started quite humbly. Just start by eating one banana a day more than you would have eaten, and start with one sun salutation everyday. This Sadhana would take about 1 minute and a half. Yet it is just as spiritually powerful as any other. Then the next week two extra bananas and two sun salutations. In a few months, taking it very slowly, you can evolve your Sadhana so that you only eat fruit before noon and you do 30 minutes of Yoga daily. This is powerful stuff. All you have to do is start.

To consider your daily actions to be spiritual acts delivers great strength. Sadhana is a personal practice or discipline done without attachment to the fruits of the actions.

Sadhana is the vehicle. You do it everyday!


Sadhana is a Sankrit word for “Daily Spiritual Discipline or Practice,” and is the foundation to the practice of Yoga. All great people have great Sadhanas.

Deepok Chopra, one of the most respected healers in the world, begins each day at 4am with Sitting Meditation and Yoga until 6am and then he writes for 2 hours all the material for his many books, and then does some exercise, ALL BEFORE 9AM. And so he says that he has taken care of his entire being, Mind, Body, Spirit and Livelihood, all before 9am so that everything that happens in the rest of the day is just extra. This is one of the most powerful Sadhanas that I have ever heard of and it is not surprising that it comes from such a successful person.

Not most days, everyday! There are no “I don’t feel like it todays”! It is not a question of “if?” you are gonna practice that day, but rather “when?”.
