Baba Siri Chand

Dear Reader:
In God we dwell and in His Name we write these lines to you.
Sat Nam

The best thing to do if someone is bothering you is to chant the mantra:
Baba Siri Chand a lakh, Baba Siri Chand a rakh
this mantra invokes the blessing of Baba Siri Chand 10,000 fold
Baba Siri Chand was the son of Guru Nanak and is known as one of the most powerful yogis that ever lived.



It is said that you only need to focus your energy on who you are sending this mantra to and recite it only once because Baba Siri Chand was such a powerful yogi that only once is necessary and he gets insulted if you chant it more than once because it is not necessary.

I have a friend in new mexico that is a chiropractor who works with a lawyer because he is always getting clients that are in car accidents and need his treatment but their insurance companies are always trying to prove that his clients are not hurt and do not need treatment so he chants this mantra in court all the time with much success against these snakes who try to prove that his clients are not hurt or in pain and will have serious health problems in the future if their injuries are not treated.

Yogi bhajan once told us a story about how this mantra worked for him. He once went to meet a well known Yoga Master in India who he had wanted to meet for some time. When he went to his house and started taking off his shoes the master said no, do not take off your shoes, just come in as we have been waiting for you to come for so long and are honored by your presence.

Then when Yogi Bhajan went to sit down he saw a beautiful chair that was higher than any other chair and knew that to be the master's chair so Yogi Bhajan went to sit in a lower chair since he regarded himself as a student wanting to learn from the master. The master said no you must sit on my chair and pointed to the beautifully adorned chair for him to sit down.

Now this was highly irregular and most strange to Yogi Bhajan, but he did as he was told and the Master sat in a smaller and lower chair. No sooner had Yogi Bhajan sat down when he began to feel heat coming from the chair which became more and more unbearable. Yogi Bhajan knew immediately that the master was using his yogic powers to do this to test him so Yogi Bhajan chanted the above mantra silently.

No sooner had Yogi Bhajan finished chanting the mantra only once, the Master started yelling and screaming, jumped up and ran out of the room! Chanting this mantra sends the energy back to the person who is trying to bother you in any way whether it is psychic or not.

Baba Siri Chand lived in the forests and lived to be 400 years old and never aged beyond 18. He started his own sect of followers called Udasi. We know that for a fact that Baba Siri Chand lived this long because there was a dialogue recorded between him and the fourth guru, known as the guru of healing miracles, Guru Ram Das.

The fourth Guru had a very long beard and used to disguise himself as a beggar at night so that he could wash the feet of the poor and no one recognized him. Guru Ram Das was an orphan who used to sell boiled wheat berries on the streets of India. Once when Baba Siri Chand went to meet Guru Ram Das, he asked him, why do you have such a long beard? Guru Ram Das answered him, "just to dust your feet Baba Ji". Then Guru Ram Das began dusting Baba Siri Chand's feet with his beard. Baba Siri Chand then said to Guru Ram Das , "Now I know why you are the fourth guru." "Your humility is beyond this earth."

You are now beginning a new chapter in your life with all of the kundalini yoga that you are doing and you are starting to become more sensitive to your environments and the people in them which is normal. Soon it may be unbearable for you to stay there if the energy continues the way it is now. so you may need to make a decision at that point about what is most important to you. moving or doing something to clean up your neighborhood to create the peace of mind that is necessary to you for your own well being.

When I first starting doing kundalini yoga and I realized how much better I started feeling and how I began strengthening my will and became more conscious and aware of my thoughts, actions, words etc. I began to realize that i wanted to experience more of this lifestyle so i moved to live with another student of kundalini yoga so that we could practise yoga together for a while. Finally we both moved into a 3ho kundalini yoga ashram that we all helped start so that we could all get together in the morning and do sadhana. This was in Rochester New York in 1970 and I was 16.

One of the students helped to purchase this beautiful large house which we all helped to fix up and called it Guru Ram Das Ashram.
It was really beautiful. We all had jobs and helped pay the mortgage by paying rent and we were in heaven. Then one day the director of the east coast regional ashram in Washington D.C. came to visit us and told us that they needed someone to go to Belgium and help a new 3ho kundalini yoga teacher there start an ashram and vegetarian natural foods restaurant.

Since my father was from France and I speak French, I volunteered. I was first sent to Ahimsa Ashram in Washington D.C. where i lived for 4 months preparing myself by working in the Golden Temple Conscious Cookery which later became an international chain of vegetarian natural food restaurants. I lived in Belgium helping this yoga student teacher there for 6 months and then was sent to our ashram in Amsterdam Holland where I also lived for 6 months working in their Golden Temple Conscious Cookery Restaurant.

While there I had the opportunity to visit our London England Ashram and work at that Golden Temple Restaurant for a month or so. I finally returned to the states and then ended up in our Ashram in Ottawa, Canada which also had a Golden Temple Restaurant where i worked for 6 months or so before moving back to Washington D.C. to the ashram there which has now moved to Herndon Virginia and has grown to a very large and beautiful ashram with a few hundred western yogis/yoga teachers, sikhs and it is also a multicultural ashram as there are many sikhs from India that attend that gurudwara service on Sundays.

From there I moved to our International center in New Mexico which is the mother ashram of 3ho and lived there for 5 years and then Yogi bhajan sent me to England where i lived for 5 years and then moved to live with another student of Yogi bhajan who was also a sikh from India, in Vancouver BC Canada for a few months before moving back to Espanola for another 5 years where I met my wife and then we moved here with the intention of living here in the winter and in new mexico in the summer. We hope to return to new mexico for summer solstice and with god's grace purchase a summer home there. You are welcome to come if you like.


Peace To All, Life To All, Love To All

Humbly Yours,
Guru Jiwan Singh & Sadhana Kaur Khalsa
