Beyond Siddhis

Siddhananda: (Showing black stone to camera) for some reason, my hand went to this one

G: Okay

Siddhananda: It’s got actually a little brown or dark dark red.

G: Blood stone

Siddhananda: Dark dark red.

G: Dark green and dark red

Siddhananda: Yeah. Again, a little bot of that blood moon feeling in there.

G: Yeah, those stones are really interesting. When you cut them, it looks like they bleed.

Siddhananda: Ohhh, interesting!

G: Yeah

Siddhananda: In terms of like color wise?

G: Yeah, the red is kinda like when you cut it, it’s like a liquid something.

Siddhananda: A liquid!

G: and it actually looks like it’s bleeding.

Siddhananda: huh, okay.

G: kind of an unusual thing about the blood stone.

Siddhananda: Yeah, well, blood can be a very good thing.

G: (chuckling)

Siddhananda: So, we’ll see. (closing eyes) There’s that little blood stone sitting there.. resonating a bit of a darker aura.

G: Aha

Siddhananda: Okay, I do see something hooded coming from it, dark hooded and not so attractive looking.

G: nooooot so great. (both smiling) 

Siddhananda: Ummm

G: We’ll see what they’re up to.

Siddhananda: Okay, they are folding hands, so maybe it is more of just a white in that hood.

G: Aha.

Siddhananda: and they did have a kind of a rosary.

G: Aha.

Siddhananda: But, they’re really dark hooded.

G: hum

Siddhananda: (speaking very softly) I don’t know. So, what kind of spirit are you? (pause) Okay, they are saying like they are like a magician.

G: Aha.

Siddhananda: ..magic spells.. magic planes.

G: (inaudible) magic? or something?

Siddhananda: magic playing.

G: Aha

Siddhananda: ..and magic charms (gesturing with hand over head), and they‘re trying to put their little dust there.

G: yeah

Siddhananda: ummmm

G: And so, why are they here today?

Siddhananda: (pause)  They desire to be a better magician.

G: (laughing) I’m sorry, we’re not about teaching magician classes, we’re about going beyond illusion.

Siddhananda: Yeah.

G: ..not creating more (chuckling)

Siddhananda: (pause)

G: So, if that’s what they’ve come for, they’ve come to the wrong place.

Siddhananda: Yeah, they’re doing some magic tricks for me.. doves appearing and flying.

G: Yeah. Well, that kind of stuff is endless.

Siddhananda: and fire in their hands, big deal.

G: Yeah, it’s all transient.

Siddhananda: siddhis

G: Ah, siddhis and that type of stuff, but that’s all transient, and we’re not promoting the transient, we’re promoting getting off the wheel of karma and going forward. But apparently, you want to stay in the wheel of karma for quite some time, which is fine. But, there’s nothing to give you to aid in what you want to do.

Siddhananda: And we’re not going to be impressed by your magic.

G: Yup, sorry.

Siddhananda: So, anyway (hand over heart).

G: So, let me give him a (inaudible) and we’ll send him off.

Siddhananda: on his way.

G: Yeah, good luck with your journey (Chuckling).

Siddhananda: I think he just kinda disappeared in a puff of smoke. We’ll find out if he’s gone.

G: Yeah, they’re gone very quick.

Siddhananda: I just see a puff of smoke, like woosh.

G: They’re gone very quick, they won’t hang around.

Siddhananda: Nooooo, that’s not what we’re about.

G: Noo, it’s like what, do we look like a magic shop here?

Siddhananda: (laughing) That’s just a whole other issue to try to manifest, and siddhis and powers and magic and spells.. that’s another thing entirely.

G: Yeah.

I Am Special

Siddhananda: (closing eyes) Okay, they are saying they are special. They are not like other people.

G: Oh boy, here we go! (laughing)

Siddhananda: (laughing) I’m special! 

G: How special are they?

Siddhananda: Oh gosh. Okay. 

G: Okay, how special are you?

Siddhananda: “I really am special though,” they are saying.

G: Okay. (laughing)

Siddhananda: I can see things that other people can’t see. 

G: Okay, that’s nice for you. (laughing) And?

Spirit: I know things that other people don’t know.

Siddhananda: (laughing) Yeah, right?

G: Okay. And?

Spirit: I am just very, very special. I mean anyone would be blessed to be around me.

G: Okay, so why are you here?

Spirit: To offer wisdom.

G: Oh, okay. What wisdom are you offering, our special one?

Siddhananda: I think they are talking about manifestation. I kind of feel that. “The Secret” (referring to the book) energy, that kind of thing. And they want to let people know about that.

G: Oh, okay. So what special thing do you have to say about that today?

Spirit: That you can manifest what you want in life. You can. Whether it’s a wonderful partner that’s just everything you want, money, good food, healthy, vibrancy, you can do that. You can do that yourself.

G: Yes, and?

Spirit: And that’s what I think people can be doing more of.

G: Okay. And?

Spirit: That that’s what makes me special. I’m good at it. I’m good at it.

G: And so where are you now?

Spirit: Just in my specialness.

Siddhananda: I don’t know. They are out of body. 

G: Right. They are out of body, but where?

Siddhananda: Yeah. (pause) Place of light they think. They think they are in a place of light. But I see them being in their own thing.

G: They are in their own drama, delusion. (circling her finger by her head)

Siddhananda: Yeah.

G: Yeah, you can create endless realms in your “specialness.” (making quotes with her fingers) And you can be as “special” as long as you want. But, eventually, you are going to find out that that’s not the ultimate thing. You create whatever, but you may find what you want and seek what you find. But, again, that’s not the end all, be all. Eventually, you will leave that specialness and you will find out that those things are transient and you’ll want to know what is God directly. But, until that time, yeah, you may play endless realms, keep creating endless transient stuff. But, eventually, you come to that point that all of that is transient.

Siddhananda: Okay, so let’s see what choice. Would you like to keep doing what you are doing or did you want to go more inward, is what I am asking them.

G: I don’t think they are ready.

Siddhananda: No, they want to keep doing this.

G: Right.

Siddhananda: So, that’s fine. Let them keep doing it.

G: Yeah. Thank you for bringing your specialness and that special message. (laughing)

Siddhananda: If that’s what you want to keep doing, keep doing it. Whatever!

G: Well, that’s exactly the point. You can do that for endless lifetimes.

Siddhananda: Right, yeah.

G: You can go endless realms. You can keep creating. But, eventually you come to see that all of that is illusion.

Siddhananda: Yeah.  

G: And it’s transient.

Siddhananda: Right.

G: It’s transient. But, they can continue to feel special for a long time.

Siddhananda: Yeah.

G: And stay in that loop for quite some time.

Siddhananda: Yeah, it doesn’t bring peace. Boy, it keeps that mind churning…

G: Exactly.

Siddhananda: …and that individuality or that feeling of separation churning.

G: Exactly.

Siddhananda: Me, you and all that going.

G: Exactly.

Siddhananda: It’s just not good for that reason. But, people, if that’s where they are at, and they want to stay there, then that’s where they are at.

G: Exactly. They can stay there as long, as many eons, as they want to.

Siddhananda: Oh, yeah.

G: And continue to do that. And sometimes, like I said, it takes a very long time for someone like that to finally see through that illusion and get that there is something more.

Siddhananda: And I think more so than those that have that left-handed blessings of suffering.

G: Right. Of suffering.

Siddhananda: Yeah.

G: They come out of that much quicker.

Siddhananda: Yeah, exactly. When you are in that, it’s kind of fairytale-land and you are carried away. But, boy, when you are suffering non-stop, twenty-four seven for lifetimes, you are going to want to do anything it takes.

G: Exactly.

Siddhananda: It’s a different thing.

G: Then you are ready to get down to brass tacks and let go of all of that.

Siddhananda: That’s right. Exactly. So anyway, there they are off doing their manifesting and all that. So, have fun!

G: In their specialness.

Siddhananda: In their specialness.

G: Because I’m so special.

Siddhananda: You mean, you weren’t convinced? (laughing)

G: No.

Siddhananda: I didn’t think so. I knew it. Okay, I knew it wasn’t going to go anywhere. (laughing)

Stay Centered

Siddhananda: (showing a light pink, little gumdrop stone) They are saying that they are like a little pink princess.

G: (giggling) What's our pink princess up to today?

Siddhananda: I do see a little pink ballerina type of soul there, on their toes with the shoes, ... it's always so cool the way they do that ... but they're doing it well! They're dancing. I don't know. I used to have this little thing as a kid, just a little ballerina [on her toes], and when you turned the thing, it would spin.

G: Oh, yeah, they spin.

Siddhananda: ... and they're spinning [like that]. They are saying that the spinning is good and is the way for them. I see the energy like the Dervish, the way they spin, and it's just a cosmic kind of dance for them. Okay, so what else? What do you have to bring to us today, questions or messages? (Closing her eyes as the upper body moves in circular motion) I'm kind of spinning with them. I'm just hearing, "I spin."

G: (moving the body in rapid circular motion with a kid-like grin) I spin, I spin, I spin, I spin ... (laughing)!

Siddhananda: (breaking out in laughter) You know, it's like those toys you [wind up], and so, I'm kind of going ... (demonstrating the spinning motion and looking a bit dizzy). So, "I spiinn." Okay, why spinning? God, they're spinning so fast all of a sudden. Sooo fast!

G: Like a top.

Siddhananda: Yeah! Exactly. It's moving a little bit, almost like a ... (moving her index finger very rapidly in a spiral motion). What's that thing in nature? Sometimes I can't get my words, but it spins like a funnel ... a tornado, or something (closing her eyes).

G: Tornado, mmm hmm.

Siddhananda: So, it's sort of slowly ... (using her hands to show how this tornado-like spinning is moving in one direction, then the other, and then coming to the center) ... begins to come into balance a little bit.

G: Okay.

Siddhananda: It's interesting ... I can just feel it (swaying very slightly from side to side like someone balancing on a tight wire). Okay, it is slowing down. It's coming into balance. Maybe, then now it can speak a little.

G: (chuckling) Yeah, that would help!

Siddhananda: Jeez! Thanks for taking us on the spinning journey. I'm getting a little dizzy here (smiling with amusement).

Spirit: I spin to show that there is ... (long pause).

G: There's what?

Siddhananda: They're spinning to show the more transient nature of things in life.

G: It comes and goes, comes and goes, ... cycles, cycles ... comes and goes in cycles.

Siddhananda: Yeah, circular, right. That was some quick spinning, though, and then there's this balance. Once that spinning in the mind stops, there's this balance. It just comes into this perfect balance (closing her eyes). I'm not getting a whole lot more than that.

G: Well, maybe they just came to show where they're at of when they spin, they come into balance. You know, it doesn't knock them off of balance. They have to stay in that center point when they're spinning. 

Siddhananda: Well, for her, and for ballerinas and things, they do.

G: Yeah, they stay in that center, and the body spins. If you can find that still point in the midst of that spinning, you'll stay centered. 

Siddhananda: I would think the dance of the Dervish as well. They are never off balance.

G: Exactly. Stuff comes and goes, the transient in nature, but find that still point in midst of it, and like a gyroscope, it spins.

Siddhananda: Well, thanks for bringing some clarity with that, Guruji, because I'm still a little dizzy.

G: (laughing)
