By following this dharana, I reached the realm of silence in me, where I felt that some light is brightening my mind and I was filled with joy. A beautiful peace was there and I was just enjoying it.
In that peaceful state this understanding arose: ‘”I am so great—I have the light of the sun, the moon, and fire in the form of this blue light which is my being. This means I have the power of all these lights. How beautiful that is!” I smiled with joy. and felt confident that in any situation if I just imagine that “I am light, I have the power of this blue light,” I will be able to embody Gurumayi’s Message for 2024.

We are on the tenth day of the dharanas on “Baba’s Teachings to Live By,” and my days have completely changed. These daily appointments have become a sweet anticipation—a desire to discover, contemplate, meditate on, and absorb Baba’s teachings.
I long to stay in touch with Siddha Yoga practices all day long. I completely immersed myself in the contemplation of today’s “Teaching to Live By.” I perceived the light that opens from my heart and reaches my head, giving me a warmth, an energy, that radiates throughout my body.
How lucky to have these daily appointments with love, with respect, with grace. I feel an immense gratitude.

For me, this dharana was very relaxing and calming. Before starting my meditation with the dharana, I was very tired, but soon I started feeling more energy. When I visualized myself entering a soothing, dark room, I actually experienced blue light spreading out to envelop the entire room and entering my body. My every breath was filled with this blue effulgence.
I am in wonder that teachings given by Baba more than forty years ago are still so relevant for me, even during this current time and era. What power there is in the words spoken by a Siddha Guru!
