How does one become fire?

The Great Seal or MahaMudra is the second way I will share with you that I have experienced.

The Great Seal is known by many other names.

Mahāmudrā in India and Tibet means a ritual hand-gesture, one of a sequence of ‘seals’ in Tantric practice, the nature of reality as emptiness, a meditation procedure focusing on the nature of Mind, a blissful recognition of emptiness, or the supreme attainment of Christhood, Buddhahood or Krishna Consciousness at the culmination of the Tantric path.

It can also be described as The Second Coming of the Christ Consciousness IN YOU.

The Coming of the Future Buddha, Maitreya Consciousness IN YOU.

In my case it is the Coming of Metatron and Guan Yin Consciousness into my body, the Diamond Consciousness, within.

In alchemy this is known as transmutation of the physical body INTO the Light Body.

This is the fire of bliss.

This was my experience which happened as follows.

Some thirty years ago when I was in Tibet, Nepal and India I devoted myself to the great guru Paramahansa Yogananda. This means total devotion. What is in His Heart is in my heart. This allows you to access the inner guru through the path of bhakti or devotion. I learned the Path of Kriya Yoga and Babaji’s Breath. I also devoted myself totally to the Dalai Lama. I learned the Path of Avalokiteshvara, Guan Yin and the Heart Sutra. I have met both these great ‘guru’s or teachers once each in the physical.

Devotion manifests itself in many ways. Deep love of a partner. Deep love of an animal. Love of nature or the stars. Love of silence or stillness. Devotion to a guru happened to be mine at that time. Devotion is a dance of the heart that allows you to do magic. Devotion is the heart on fire, the alchemy of fire.

The Mahamudra is a Great Mudra, a dance of the heart which on an outer level is carried out by hand mudras like you all do so naturally when you pray or meditate. I have included the Lotus Seal, the mudra of Avalokiteshava Guan Yin below at the end.

The mudras you do are called Seals because they open portals to allow energies or Light Beings through and then you ground them, blend with them and ‘seal’ them.
A Great Seal is a ‘Great’ Relationship that basically opens your path totally to Source or the Great Bliss.
It is THE significant deity relationship or relationships that take you home.
So for me it is Guan Yin.
For some of you it may well be Lady Nada, Yeshua, Buddha, Krishna, or Merlin or Arthur.
The nature of the relationship is very passionate, so it is significantly different than the other Beings that contact you.
The Mahamudra for me is Guan Yin.
She opens the portals and seals them.
Without Her I am nothing.
She is my breath and heart.
That is the foundation.

So what happened was that I was given a gift, the gift of Love.
In other words I had a ‘Divine love affair’ with Guan Yin, a love affair that lasted for a very long time. Aeons.
So when Sanat Kumara came and instructed me on how to blend, in Her, with Archangel Metatron I was rather taken aback.
A pure angelic consciousness with the bodhisattva of compassion?
He told me to use the process instructed in the Kalachakra Tantra which I know.
To me it was an obvious key to unity.
So this is what I did.
It took a single breath.
At the time of taking this breath, I knew Metatron to be my father.
I emptied myself into a single drop of bliss.
I used the Babaji Breath drawing in the Source energy and that drop through my crown which I visualized as Metatron’s mouth.
I drew the ‘drop’ of light down Metatron’s single sushumna channel in the center of the astral spine, through His heart.
I saw Him in ‘union’ with Guan Yin.
I (the pure drop of indestructible bliss) travelled through Him and out into the womb of my Mother Guan Yin.
She then ‘birthed’ me out Her channel AND…
I was extinguished.
Totally.
I disappeared in a thunderbolt and lightning vajra flash of light.
It was so stunning and shocking.
There was literally no-thing and yet everything.
The Ocean of Divine Mother opened within me and filled me.
It pierced me totally.
It was so literally peace-Full and Bliss-Full there was no need for anything.
I was at total and absolute peace.
It was extraordinary wordless-ness and nameless-ness because it was impossible to word or name any-things.
ALL things were perfect, in Being, just as they were.
I stayed that way for around 24 hours.
My wife, Sumire remembers it vividly because I told her I would just BE for as long as it took.
It was heaven on earth.
The Kingdom of Heaven within.
That experience graced me and opened me a few weeks later to the Fire of the Holy Spirit in tongues of flame descending on me.

Part of the process of Mahamudra I am describing with a Divine Being is called Naropas Six Yogas.
These six yogas are what you ‘travel through’ like traveling between worlds before you enter the Great Mudra.
The six yogas or dharmas are
tummo – Tibetan: གཏུམ་མོ་ – the yoga of inner heat or mystic heat
gyulü – Tibetan: སྒྱུ་ལུས – the yoga of the illusory body
ösel – Tibetan: འོད་གསལ་ – the yoga of the clear light or radiant light
milam – Tibetan: རྨི་ལམ་ – the yoga of the dream state
bardo – Tibetan: བར་དོ – the yoga of the intermediate state or liminality ‘the threshold state’. This is well-known through the Bardo Thödöl. Bardo yoga as the yoga of liminality may include aspects of illusory body and dream yoga and so is an extension and blending of those yogas.
phowa – Tibetan: འཕོ་བ་ – the yoga of the transference of consciousness to a pure Buddhafield

I will deal with just one yoga or dharma as an example, tummo.

The Practice is as follows.
During a deity visualization, such as the one I described above, the physical human body is visualized as completely hollow, made of light and has no internal organs. In actuality, the “center channel” sushumna is the whole arterial system, or more specifically the aorta. The two “side channels” ida and pingala are the venous system and the spinal column and nervous system.

In the practice of tummo, the visualization of the lower ends of the three channels is primarily used to focus body awareness in the subnavel area. Breath retention, such as doing Kriya Yoga or the Babaji Breath as Yogananda and I have described, forces wind and air into the arterial system. The heart rate slows, the karmic winds suspend and the venous blood returns less impurities into the blood stream. This leads to longevity. Ojas (which is the nectar stored in the body when food is completely digested) itself has two stores within the body—the heart and brain. Thus there is the visualization of a blazing fire of soul within and the dripping of the nectar of bliss. When the vāyu or wind moves very little, that is considered subtle mind. This is because the mind is inexorably linked to the wind, or even considered synonymous with the winds. (There are five different types of vayu or winds of prana). Yogis can direct and cultivate these winds to bring optimal health and enlightened states of Being.

Yogis, Kundalini and tummo
Kuṇḍalinī-yoga offers a range of techniques to harness the powerful psycho-physical energy coursing through the body. Most people simply allow the energy to churn in a cauldron of chaotic thoughts and emotions or dissipate the energy in a superficial pursuit of pleasure, but a yogi or yogini consciously accumulates and then directs it for specific purposes. This energy generates warmth as it accumulates and becomes an inner fire or inner heat (candālī) that burns away the dross of ignorance, grasping and ego-clinging.

Agni, the root of our word, ignite, is the ‘digestive’ fire that allows us to process and absorb the ‘light’ essence or nectar of food, experiences and memories while burning off waste and ignorance. As an essential principle of Ayurveda, strong Agni allows us to purify ourselves and allow the Light in. From many years as a Vedic Astrologer working in clinics with Ayurvedic physicians I was able to see first hand the Kundalini working through the Alchemy of Fire as it burns and purifies the human body.

Numerous non-buddhist tantras of the Shakta and Shaiva traditions (generally termed Hindu by westerners) speak of Kundalini, the purifying force, which is generally described as a coiled energy at the base of the spine at the first chakra.

As you open to the kundalini you will become aware of energies or winds moving at or in different parts of your body, for example the crown, third eye, medulla oblongata (at the back of the head), the heart, the navel, the base of the spine in the back and so on.

The medulla, Yogananda said, is the subtle center and the main switch that controls the entrance, storage, and distribution of the life force or Source energy. Here is his actual description – The Medulla Oblongata – This structure at the base of the brain (top of the spinal cord) is the principal point of entry of life force (prana) into the body. It is the seat of the sixth cerebrospinal center, whose function is to receive and direct the incoming flow of cosmic energy. The life force is stored in the seventh center (sahasrara) in the topmost part of the brain. From that reservoir it is distributed throughout the body. The subtle center at the medulla is the main switch that controls the entrance, storage, and distribution of the life force or Source energy…In other words, when we are calm and balanced we use that medulla center to direct energies in the body and light body. That is why the connection is so strong and powerful for us all. This is the core point for alchemy – the ability to direct energies consciously. Not at random. Gaining awareness of our center, our ground so we don’t get overcome and spun out by the energies is crucial. Good Source Messengers activate the Oblongata immediately in those they contact who will become Source Messengers because as students we need to be able to do the same for others ie. Activate the Oblongata and teach others how to manage the energies and communicate with Light Beings who will co-create with us.

Again, the KEY is what you do and how you work WITH the energy relationships of the Awakening of the Fire, the Mother of Dragons and the Great Seal, the Mahamudra.

What I have shared here is merely a feather on the breath of God.
It is designed to trigger questions, deep source questions from I AM, the power of divinity and Presence WITHIN.
The Dragon’s Power is NOW manifesting as fire and Prana from the middle throne of your heart in the physical body and the Higher Heart in the etheric body.
The Higher Heart is accessed by mastering the Dragon’s Breath or the Breath of Fire, which is also ONE with Babaji’s Breath.
Raising the Serpent Fire using sound vibration such as the Yeshua Codes and mantra such as Ku-Ma-Ra unites the polarity and awakens the inner fountain of love.
Meditating between 4am to 6am as the Dalai Lama does is a simple secret known as ‘Brahma Mahurta’ (the hour of Brahma) as the ‘Breath of God’ naturally unites due to even breaths in both nostrils.

DON’T ACT SMALL.
YOU ARE THE UNIVERSE DANCING IN ECSTASY.
DANCE WHEN THE PAIN BREAKS YOU OPEN
AND DANCE WHEN YOU ARE PERFECTLY FREE.

This is the true potential of co-creation. BEING THE GOD-SELF, making our own portals and accessing the frequencies of the elementals through our own creations, ALLOWING THE LIGHT TO ENTER and our Light Body to activate.

You carry the golden flame of enlightenment within you Dear Ones.

Let it shine.

ག༌ཏེ༌ག༌ཏེ༌པཱ༌ར༌ག༌ཏེ༌པཱ༌ར༌སཾ༌ག༌ཏེ༌བོ༌དྷི༌སྭཱ༌ཧཱ།

Gate gate pāragate pārasaṃgate bodhi swāhā

Go beyond your self, go beyond what you know, go beyond the breath, empty yourself, bathe yourself in Divinity.

We are One with Divine Father and Mother through our conscious choice and creation.

BEING, LOVE, BLISS, UNITY, ONE, I AM.

It is through Our Presence, by moment to moment awareness of our co-creation with our fellow beings, this planet and the many worlds, that we learn best how to serve.

I AM traveling between worlds. I AM simply breathing walking enlightening listening listening.

I am truly interested in you sharing your experience of FIRE

As we share deeply so we open our shared wisdom and Light.

Ask for sharing and gathering and love to connect us all.

Love and soul blessings

Altair and Mother

The picture I am including at the end is the Lotus Seal, the Seal of Guan Yin or Avalokiteshvara. It is known as a Pledge Seal and opens the portal of your heart to the inflow of Divine Mother’s energies of love and compassion as the Goddess Guan Yin or Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara.

It is very simple to activate.

When you rise from your bed in the early morning and when you sit to practice meditation or whatever devotional practice you make throughout the day construct the Pledge Seal of your lineage or Avalokiteshvara Guan Yin and say the sacred mantra.

Lotus Lineage of Avalokiteshvara Guan Yin

Join the palms, then join them in the manner of a blossoming lotus (seal 2) having placed this at the heart say
“Om padma udbhavaye svaha”
or with all your heart say
“Om mani padme hum”

You may have your own lineage, seal and mantra and sacred ritual or blessing in which case please use that.
