My name is Krithika Kameswaran. I did my Inner Awakening in July 2012.
That was the time Swamiji started “Nirahara Samyama”. That time I used to think it was not for me, but then after finishing IA and came back to USA, I wanted to do it very badly. I did with team of our Sangha people. We were all going through same kind of emotions, I still remember First 48 hours went very well, then second phase, second day, my mind literally jumped in front of me and said you listen to his Satsang, follow his teachings, why this ‘Nirahara’?, You are already lean etc., etc., all the inner chattering I could not tolerate. Then I came that day to break samyama, that’s where Master does his magic all the time, that day I listened to his Satsang, that’s it. I decided that I am going to do this level, then next level I am going to skip, but towards the end of second level, I was already flowering in gratitude, I told myself I am going to the third level also and I successfully finished all the 3 levels.
I used to get headache if I even miss single meal, but nothing like that happened. It all went great by Guru’s grace. I reduced my food quantity drastically after “Nirahara Samyama”.
When I was doing 3rd level, I was always pouring with gratitude & I had tremendous feeling connection with the Master. It was simply an awesome experience. After Samyama I reduced my solid intake. I take smoothies in morning, ‘Dhal’ soup in afternoon.
I am not completely out of solid, since I did not do The Samyama. My weight did not increase and I am on the lower level in the BMI scale. All my results came out great. I don’t have vitamin D deficiency anymore. My Cholesterol and Triglycerides are on the lower level.
Thanks to Swamiji for introducing this spiritual practice to the world…I used to get head ache if I don’t eat, that has also stopped. I understand the concept of completion with relate to food. Developing more feeling connection with the cosmic source!
Humble gratitude,
