The Shivanga Sadhana for men, is a powerful process that enhances one’s receptivity to the energies of Dhyanalinga, and allows them to explore higher levels of experience in body, mind, and energy. The sadhana takes place during Uttarayana,
a time of great spiritual significance, when the sun’s run shifts to
the Northern Hemisphere – a time recognized as highly conducive to
receive Grace.
This year’s sadhana for men began on Thaipoosam on 27th January, and will culminate on Mahashivarathri, on 10th March. Over 6000 Shivangas from all over the world will be completing their sadhana at the Isha Yoga Center on Mahashivarathri, with a pilgrimage to the Velliangiri Mountain’s sacred Seventh Hill, a space of tremendous power and energy where Adiyogi himself spent time.
Six Shivangas from Nagercoil have decide to walk to the Isha Yoga
Center as a part of their sadhana. Their 430 kilometer journey began on
the 27th of February, when they set off at four in the
morning after Guru Pooja. With two more days of travel remaining, the
six of them shared their experience of the past 10 days, with the blog
team.
“There are really no words to describe the experience. The closest I
can say is that it is like a Samyama Sadhana. Shiva is with us. It has
really demolished the ego and changed the way we experience life. At
every place we stop, volunteers have been taking care of everything for
us. They anticipate our needs without us even having to ask for
anything. They are there with food, medicines and anything else that we
might need.
We walk in silence, just chanting to ourselves. Sadhguru has been
with us every step of the way. It’s amazing how some things have turned
out. We had planned to walk 40 kilometers every day. On the first day,
we managed 55 kilometers without even being aware of it. But this took a
toll on the second day. When we woke up, our legs were blistered and we
managed only 14 kilometers. We had to stop because one among our group
was in a really bad state. He had to lie down and take rest and wasn’t
in a position to continue. He asked us to carry on, and said that he
would somehow make it, but we decided that we would get to the ashram
together and refused to leave him behind. Just then we received a phone
call from the ashram, and we were told that Sadhguru had enquired how we
were doing. That was all it took! Our friend who had been out for the
count, shot up and walked on like a new man! It was all we could do to
keep up with him!
It has been an amazing experience for us. We still have some distance to go, but we feel that this has been a great blessing that comes only once in many lifetimes.”
