Since first time I heard about Nirahara Samyama, I felt attracted to it. I had the opportunity of first doing it in September 2012. From Spain, the 2 ways connection time was at 3:30am so, either I had to wait until that time awake or I have to wake up at that time. After the 21 days I had the feeling of have done a samyama for sleeping as well..!
Before talking about my experience, I would like to say that since I have never had a real chance to suffer hunger in my life, I know that eating, for me, has been always just something I “had to do” in order to nurture my body.Then, I know that when I miss the food, what I really feel is not hunger but the desire of the food, its taste and the feeling of getting fill. I have always enjoyed myself eating, even if being very careful with quality and quantity. I do also know that my body&mind were already used to the “rhythm” of meal times and that when those rhythms were altered, both mind and body, felt bad.
In October 2012, while translating to Spanish the Inner Awakenig, I did THE Samyama, and even if it was “harder” than the first Nirahara Samyama, I found it easier..! It maybe was for being in Swamiji´s presence or because my body has already been “prepared” to it, or may be because of both…
Anyway, when I was back home after THE Samyama, I did realized that even if my biomemory about food and eating habits was a new one, I still had to work on it..! I felt that it was like having a new software in my computer, let´s say like a new photo editor. Since I have a new photo editor in my computer, I can edit photos. I can not do it if I don´t have any. But I can also have it and don´t use it at all..! Maybe I don´t use it because I am not so brave, or because I feel I wont be able to manage it easily or just because I feel lazy to learn, or for whatever the reason.
So to say, I felt that I had this “new software” downloaded in my system and that if I did not make an effort to manage it easily, it could be that I would never used it again..!! so, I decided to go on with the samyama until I would feel able to manage myself easily with this new way of living.
I went on eating liquids (I also do NH diet, since become healer in July 2011 IA) six days a week and solid once a week. I started as soon as back from THE Samyama (I ate solid for a few days, before I decided this) and went on for the next 3 months. By now, I´m getting to the end of this tree months, and then, depending how much I feel I´ve learn to manage the “software” I will decided to still go on or try a “new life” as niraharee. I have always feel energetic, more flexible, lighter and awake.
Medical examinations gave very good results, higher than usual in previous years.
For the time I have been doing it I have to say that many people have also get interested and inspired. Some of them to the point to do it, even if they had not any contact with Vedic Tradition or Indian culture..!!
I always “knew” that it would work like that. That it would be a real way for enriching myself and others.
I feel very happy about it and hope more people get “touched”.
Thanks a lot to Paramahamsa Nithyananda who brings us this marvellous chance, and to all the people who had, and has, the “courage and confidence” to try it.
