Dear Friends,

There are four level in which we live. Beta Level where the brain beats between 14 to 21 cycles per seconds and which is our present level when we work. If we shout the cycles will increase to 30/40 or even 50 showing disturbance in the brain.

Then the second is Alpha Level which is between 7 to 14 cycles per second.

Third is Theta Level in which the brain beats between 4 to 7 cycles per second.

And the last is Delta Level where the brain beats between 1 to 4 cycles per second.

Sanyasis go low down to Theta Level and appear almost at sleep while meditating while being fully in command of themselves. When we go to sleep the we go from Beta level to Alpha Level to Theta Level and then to Delta Level and again come back to Beta Level the same way. A Sleep consists of 90 minutes. Hence if you happen to get up at the end of 90 minutes exact you feel very refreshed. But sometimes people sleep for 11 to 12 hours and get up in between the sleep cycle without completing it and hence we feel as if we have not had enough sleep.

Now as we go from Beta Level to Alpha Level we reach a stage where the thoughts are subdued and we feel peaceful, blissful and happy. The Brain is calm, mind and thoughts are under control, we can then do anything good to anyone in this world. I repeat ANYTHING GOOD TO ANYONE IN THIS WORLD. You can heal any person of any disease -- I REPEAT ANY DISEASE -- God gives you so much strength at this Level that it is like a miracle when you start healing persons with Cancer, Aids and what not. When you reach this level and make affirmations that I shall get up at 3 a.m. in the morning then even if the Sleep Cycle is not completed your mind adjusts because of the instructions received by it by a Brain at Alpha Level. Hence you automatically wake up at that time and this has been practised by me so many times. It is a wonderful experience.

IN the Guiness Book of Records one man has hot melted iron poured over his tongue at a very high degree heat. Nothing happens to him. But when he bends downwards and pours out that iron it burns hole in the wood and even the flooring. Why nothing happens to him he was asked. He immediately said that he had practised going to Alpha Level regularly and reached a state where he can go to that level as and when required.

Now to reach this Alpha Level first thing required is Mental House Cleaning where all the unwanted thoughts should be cleared, Love for Humanity, you should wipe out hatred. At least you should move in this positive direction to be able to meditate. The atmosphere required to meditate is generally available late in the night or early in the morning and sometimes in the afternoon.

Once an Australian Cricket -- Mathew Hayden -- was asked how he was so successful in getting such high scores and he was also the holder of record 376 runs having beaten Brian Lara's record then. He replied he meditated before coming to the pitch for batting.

The benefits of meditating is endless. You can choose your girl friend or boy friend if you have many to decide whom to marry, you can choose your career, you can programme yourself to earn more money and so many other things. The list is endless.

Initially it is difficult to meditate but as you practise daily it becomes very easy.
