You Are Sadashiva's Form
In life, certain profound and absolute truths can never be changed, whether you understand or not, accept or not, like or not, believe or not.You can change the window or door of your house in whatever direction you want. But Sun rises in the East and sets in the West only. There is nothing you can change about it.
If you deny saying 'No, no, in our place the Sun neither rises nor sets" means the door and window of your house must be in different direction, but that doesn't change the truth of sun rising or setting. Whether you see the sunrise and sunset or not, sun IS rising and setting.
Same way, when you live in this body and mind, either before enlightenment or after enlightenment, YOU ARE THE FORMS OF LORD SHIVA. You are one and the same as Shiva's energy. Some may understand this or may not. But this is THE Truth.
Some keep their door and window in the east-west direction and enjoy the sun rising and sun setting while some keep in the north-south direction and they live their life never ever seeing it. A rare few, while they are living, due to their tapas (austerity), live the space of SADASHIVOHAM – celebrate, rejoice, radiate and manifest the energy and powers of Sadashiva. Others do not celebrate. The truth is we are all part of Shiva.
Guru gives you the first inspiration, awakens your Kundalini Shakti and grants you the rights to express the SHIVATVA. He initiates you to achieve your rights. That is Shiva Deeksha. During the initiation of this Shiva Deeksha, a mantra is given along with Kanthamālā, a Rudraksha which is worn on the throat. When you receive the initiation from a person who is not enlightened, after the initiation, you need to repeat the mantra continuously on your own effort. Till the mantra merges in you and becomes part of you, you need to go on doing the Japa (chanting). But when you receive the initiation from an Avatar, He bolts the mantra into your bio-energy.So whatever work you are doing, the mantra japa goes on vibrating in the throat.
Until you become Shiva, wear this Rudraksha along with you the energized bhasma (vibhuti) bag, let that be always with you. Even when japa, chanting doesn't happen during the sleep or some unconscious moments, then during those moments the power of the Rudraksha makes you do the japa. For 24 hours the mantra happens inside. That is what is called Ajapajapa. When the mantra happens continuously, Sadashiva's remembrance, bliss, knowledge, power pours and grows in your life as a power. This Shakti awakens the DNA of your (family) community, Gotra. Whatever community in which you are born, that unique DNA is awakened. So by this the knowledge, clarity, completion and fulfillment starts expressing.
