My Name is HrNr Nithya Subramanyananda. I am a 25 years old.
I have received many health benefits from doing Nirahara samyama, THE Samyama and continuing the Nirahari lifestyle after THE Samyama. One such benefit has been weight loss of unnecessary body fat and body balancing to healthy amount of weight, increase in energy, stamina, decrease in hours of sleep required per day. I have (and many others) also noticed my face and body looking visibly healthier, such as my face has been shining and body looks more fit. The body feels light but energetic throughout the day. Also I have noticed increased flexibility and more ease in advanced yoga postures as well as faster results when I started body building again with weights. I feel my body language has changed, has become more graceful and conscious.
I have been finding it easier to sit in meditation, that it takes less time for my mind to settle down into a meditative state when that is my will. Have found listening capacity has increased and also have found a huge reduction in lustful thoughts. I really feel THE samyama has helped in a big way to remove the animal-lust patterns. Also there is a feeling of purity and confidence. This process and initiation has really helped my spiritual life, helping me grow and expand in ways that I didn’t think were possible before I met Swamiji.
It makes life so much more simpler when you don’t bend and twist your day around eating. I save lots of thoughts and time that I previously wasted on thinking about what food to eat, cook, where to go shopping ect. So I feel I have more free time in my day, I feel liberated from being bound by eating solid food. I have liquids through the day (juices, soups, tea), but this keeps my body feeling light/yet I don’t feel like my body is missing anything or that I go through periods of tiredness or exhaustion. Before this process, I used to fast only 1 day a year, 24 hours and that used to be such a struggle! This feels like an effortless process, cause I really know that I am not the one making it happen, it is simply Swamiji’s miraculous initiation doing all the work. I will be a Nirahari for life, I simply know it! There is no other better way to live!
