human being wrote:Now, coming back to the point of sakash, it is important to note that there is a clear order of evolution of human consciousness which you cannot just bypass at your whims and fancies. So, for ordinary folk like us, first we have to do physical actions which gradually purify our heart ... Only after our consciousness evolves, after eons of selfless service to mankind which takes many lifetimes in most cases, the nature grants us such abilities.
For the sake of discussion, I'll include a quote from a BK website below. I think the BKs translate sakash as "blessings" in English at least to outsiders.
I have to concur that there are people with real "gifts" on Earth, but it remains a mystery to me how they earned them. What separates Lekhraj Kirpalani from them is that he bought his powers in his late 40s, i.e. the history of how he went to an unnamed saddhu in Bengal, gave him a large amount of money, and was initiated into some kind of unnamed siddhi or power, after which he changed.
We know nothing more about it than that; not which siddhi, not which tradition, not which saddhu or guru, however, generally it is thought in spiritual circles that if you buy a gift it is a bad thing, i.e. that you are involving yourself with lower level of spirits. I have to believe some of the Seniors asked him about it, but they never spoke about it. Or perhaps they did not because even the "Seniors" that we had up until a few years ago were all young children at the time.
Within BKism, despite heavily denying it, there has been a funny sort of transference of ideas from Western New Age spirituality, back into BKism, which are then repackaged in a way to make them look BK. What worked to appeal to Westerners, then being sold back to Indians. I believe this idea of sending light or blessings is one of them and that part of it is is just about 'being seen to do something', or being made to feel like one is doing something, when in fact, one is doing nothing.
What percentage of BKs do you think can influence anyone outside of their own head?
How to Give Sakash (healing body and soul)Yoga Sakaash (or Sakash) is given, to heal diseases, relationships, etc. Sakash can be given to the light body (angelic body). This is sending them vibrations of peace, love and power to heal their weaknesses or disease of body. This works and is also done by most of BKs (Brahma Kumari and Kumar) at many events. Whenever for example there is an earthquake of other natural calamity in anywhere around the world, then we site together at a particular big centre hall and do collection meditation (healing RajYog) to give vibrations to those souls who became a victim during calamity. Sending them energy of peace and power to tolerate does give them inner strength to overcome all their difficulties.
This method of giving sakaash was first introduced by Shiv Baba during Sakar Murli, during 1960s. Then it was known as 'giving light and might'. Now we call it Sakash. The term sakaash was given by Avyakt BapDada.
