SAKTHIPAAT DIKSHAA (MAHA DIKSHAA)

Shaktipat Diksha is the transmission of a living intelligent force from Initiator to devotee. “Shakti” is the conscious, living, intelligent force. “Pat” means to transfer or pass down. “Diksha” means to initiate so “Shaktipat Diksha” is the passing or transmitting of a conscious living force or energy from initiator to initiate.

Shaktipat awakens the dormant energy of Kundalini and directs its ascent through the chakras. The process is wholly automatic, the initiate does not need to learn any method to control the kundalini or direct it to a particular chakra. This is the immense benefit of Shaktipat.

Due to the effects of Shaktipat the workings of Kundalini may sometimes be felt throughout the entire nervous system all of the day and night, depending on the function it is performing at that particular time. In Hindu teachings there are other types of “diksha’s” or initiations, these are formalities in religious ceremonies and should not be confused with Shaktipat Diksha.

Man is gifted with unbelievable abilities. These abilities usually are inactive or asleep. Just like inactive power does not yield any result, awakened but uncontrolled power does not yield positive results. With his inactive abilities man cannot attain his full potential. While it is necessary to activate the power, it is equally important to control the awakened power. This is feasible only with Shaktipat Diksha and for Shaktipat Diksha to work it is essential for Sadguru to be in live human form. It is a common misconnection that Diksha means leaving home, family, living in an ashram in a jungle, leaving food etc. Reality is that Diksha does not require renouncing anything, but is to gain everything. One is rewarded with dhyaan and protection of mahaguru. When one’s surrender to Sadguru ripens, Guru establishes the power of mantra in the disciple. Disciple becomes one with Sadguru. Sadguru guides the disciple and takes away all of his sufferings and bad karma. Serpent power (Kundalini shakti) awakened with Shaktipat Diksha and nurtured with steady dhyaan dissects all six chakras and unites with Lord Shiva in the Sahasrar Chakra (1000 petal lotus situated at the crown of head). That is the moment of Samadhi (spiritual trans) and Brahma Gyaan (knowledge of universe and beyond). With regular Dhyaan, Diksha becomes source of protection, joy, liberation, and success and not of fear or escape. Sadguru enters disciple’s body and initiates him or her using Sadguru’s own power. This is called Shaktipat Diksha. With this, disciple receives the grace of Mahaguru. One who does not benefit from Mahaguru’s grace in this manner remains impure and fails to attain knowledge, liberation, and Siddhies. Righteousness and joy are the indications of Shaktipat as only Shaktipat is the source of bliss and enlightenment.
