A visit to Pondicherry in the last week of October 2009 by me was highly beneficial. Apart from getting the opportunity of meditating in a place which is a spiritual dynamo, I was also able to write the next series of 4 articles titled ‘How to….?’ series. These articles are on enhancing one’s mind powers, yogic diet, saatvik or pure life style,as well as explanation of the mystery of Kundalini shakti, the dormant spiritual powers and thereby demystifying the clouds of obscurity around it.
I consider myself extremely fortunate because I have been blessed in so many ways by The Mother and Sri Aurobindo in speeding up my sadhana and opening up new vistas of higher knowing very silently since I made my first trip to Pondicherry in November 2002. It was serendipity at its best since I had no clue why I was going there except that I definitely held a desire many years ago to visit this place but it had never materialized. By the year 2002, Mother knew that my time had come and a set of serendipitous events occurred which literally transported me to Pondicherry. During that time I did not even know what to expect or do there as I had no guide or adviser. However, once I began going there frequently, I have never looked back as it has been a time for great progress ever since I accepted Mother as my Holy Mother, who in turn has been nurturing and caring for me silently with Her unfathomable energy or Shakti. She replenishes and infuses me repeatedly because of which I have never ending energy to work, think, meditate and pursue a very active and strenuous life. With passage of time, my food and sleep requirement is visibly decreasing and the output is increasing. My capacity to work has increased manifold . I surprise myself when I look at the changes that are developing as I go on breaking my limitations and increase my previous limited potential. A lot has got to do with my frame of mind that has undergone drastic transformation in the last few years. The self-doubts, fears, anxieties and abiding nebulous concepts have vanished and they have been replaced by unshakable and irrevocable faith in God and my spiritual mentors who have taught me to believe in myself completely. Whatever I wish to do now I am able to do because I can perform so many types of activities and I accomplish a great deal in a day. It is Divine Mother’s wish that I share this information with all with the purpose of yielding spiritual augmentation and intensification for all sincere aspirants. She is not just my mother, she is your mother too. Whenever you are in a need of any protection or spiritual guidance, call on her. You will without fail receive her blessings in many oblique ways and manner. One can address her as just ‘Mother’ or ‘Ma’ to call her and she will respond to your desires, needs and spiritual aspirations.
Human life is mainly about survival and upkeep of this body. So apart from maintaining ourselves, we need to accomplish more in less time in a day in order to save time and energy to be able to perform suitable actions to acquire awareness and self realizations. In other words, to evolve faster and speed up the upward journey of self realization, we must follow a specific life style. I sincerely hope that the following 4 articles* will be of considerable help for all of us keeping in view the intention which The Mother has in her mind. The first article will discuss some points about how we can increase our capacity to work. The second article will is going to deal with food and nutrition and breath- control. They are important topics as they are to be applied and adopted in our daily life. The next will throw some light on ‘How to make your mind strong by the power of will’. The last one is on arousing the dormant primitive energy lying unused since ancient times in our body about which we are absolutely unaware. This particular post will be an important landmark on my blog because only when that Primordial Energy or Kundalini Shakti is aroused and unleashed systematically that one can have a direct vision of Divine Light. If we, the aspirants are informed about this unknown storehouse of energy, we can utilize it in right and proper manner so as to get optimum profit and correct utilization.
After all what is energy? In its simplest, energy is the capacity for doing work which is the best reason for us to save it!
I shall be extremely happy and thankful to God if I am able to touch your life in some way on your road to spiritual progress. In this way I will be able to serve God in a very small way!! So let’s begin-
First of all:-
“Its faith in something and enthusiasm for something that makes a life worth living”
A demotivated and indifferent man can never be productive, so stay alive and charged mentally and physically by being interested in life.
*4 Articles are-
1. How to increase the capacity to do work?
2. Food and Breath Control.
3. How to increase the power of your will?
4. Kundalini Shakti-I, II, III.

I have wanted to visit Pondicherry too for a long time now but things just don’t seem to fall into place but am sure the trip will happen at the right divine time.
Thank you for this wonderful article. Thank you Mother and Sri Aurobindo for the uplifting energy and healings in this blog post.
Gratitude to dear Mother for love and blessings…Thank you…
Dear Mom, I was just reading this post again and came across my comment
which stated I wanted to visit Pondicherry someday. At that time I didnt know
if this visit would happen or not. But it did finally and I got to go there twice.
This brings a smile on my face when I think of it now.
