The Portal
and the 9 levels of consciousness
By Swami Harinanda
Gnana (Jnana) = Viveka = Spiritual Discrimination
Let me take you on a journey. A journey through The Portal, The Hridian Center, which is the true Spiritual Heart located 4 digits from the breast bone on the right side of the chest, just opposite the physical heart. Ramana Maharshi claims that whether one is right or left handed, this site is intuitively struck when affirming one's own identity. Real Yoga was discovered by the ancient sages long before religions and dogma influenced it. In this book you will find answers to questions that have long been unanswered for you; thus clearing the way for a more readied and prepared state to receive your First Samadhi, which ultimately allows you to pass through The Portal into the Fourth State of Ultimate Reality, known as Turiya.
The Masters Chant is not well known, but through the words and the cadence of the chant, it will call in from the Akashic record, all past and present Masters to give you aid. This chant is used mostly to help others. By chanting the Masters Chant and throwing an envelope of light around someone in need, a very powerful vibration is sent out to them. If you find yourself in a difficult situation this powerful vibration can extricate you from it in what seems like a miraculous way. Miracles exist when you know what key to turn to unlock The Portal.
In Appreciation
I would like to thank two friends who made the printing of this book to the Internet possible. Kevin, a translator who has a genius for translating into a number of languages, documents for large business concerns and the Italian Government, who gave his time and considerable knowledge of English to the task of correcting my misplaced syntax, paragraphing and quotation marks.
Kevin has that unique ability to read an original manuscript in whatever language, and even if not agreeing with what is written will almost dive into the writer's mind holding true to the writer's original intent.
Jesse, a young computer genius, who so graciously insisted on creating web sites for me because as he says... you are putting into words what I have always known since I was a young child
. He felt it would be a great idea to let others share these Yogic thoughts, which are quite out of the realm of what Yoga has in recent years become.
