Practicing Darshan

As I viewed the video, I was filled with awe, wonderment, and gratitude. I realized that when I participated in the live audio stream from the hall designated for families at the Siddha Yoga Ashram in Oakland, I was connected with everyone at Shree Muktananda Ashram as well! The video so clearly reflected what I had envisioned during the satsang!
I am so grateful for this opportunity to clearly recall my experience and to recognize the presence of grace in my life.

This morning while driving to work, I experienced deep longing to visit the Bhagavan Nityananda Temple in Shree Muktananda Ashram—to offer my salutations and receive his darshan. My heart overflowed with joy when, upon my arrival at work, I turned on my computer and discovered this video.

I am very grateful for the darshan of Bhagawan Nityananda. As I watched the video, I felt I was present in the Temple in Shree Muktananda Ashram. Bade Baba looked so gorgeous to me—blazing like the sun, filled with equipoise, stillness, and happiness. Darshan of Bade Baba took me inside my heart, and I experienced great joy. It is my experience during 22 years on the Siddha Yoga path that whenever I see Bade Baba’s photograph or murti, I immediately connect to my heart. I can actually feel the throb of love in my heart.
Thank you to the Siddha Yoga Gurus.

My wife, daughter, and I received Bade Baba’s darshan through this video. We felt as if we were actually in the Temple, slowly walking on the velvety carpet and breathing in the atmosphere of love and devotion so palpable through the images of the video.
At one point, I felt a rush of sweet energy in my heart and experienced a quiet and still space of silence within. I knew this to be darshan.
As I went on to perform my daily duties, I experienced renewed awareness of the constant presence of the Guru’ s love and grace in my life.

As I watched the Siddha Yogis lovingly and tenderly having darshan with Bade Baba, I had the sense that the heart connection and expansion that occurs during darshan affects not only the individual having darshan, but also everyone and everything throughout the entire world.
Thank you so much, Gurumayi.

Thank you for making this beautiful way of having darshan available: seeing Bhagavan Nityananda’s majestic form, along with the procession of sweet souls interacting with him. I was in awe that I could experience darshan from Bade Baba’s vantage point—something I had never considered before. I could see myself in the worshipers, and I could feel myself touching the divine within me as I watched the beautiful, open expressions on their faces. This feeling of touching the divine still lingers.

Seeing the expressions of pure love and deep devotion on each seeker’s face as they approached Bhagavan Nityananda’s resplendent form brought tears to my eyes. I felt that each devotee expressed their love for the Guru in their own unique way, with their own flavor and rasa.
Thank you, Gurumayi, for bringing this poignant darshan to the world, for us to behold online. How blessed we are!
