Shivabalayogi gave no discourse and he preached no doctrine. His only verbal teaching is that people should meditate for an hour each day. Everything else we need to know we will learn through our own meditation.

Shivabalayogi continues his work of spiritual guidance in silence. He gave darshan, the spiritual energy which radiates. When people ask for his help, he gives them specially blessed ash (vibhuti). He enjoys distributing blessed food (prashad), a form of blessing which he always considered very important. During bhajans, he gives spiritual trance and bhava which typically manifests as a peaceful exhilaration, but in some cases he completely immerses a person’s ordinary consciousness in a divine bliss. Most importantly, he freely gives to all who want initiation into dhyana meditation.

Shri Swamiji’s yoga meditation programs consist of initiation into dhyana, meditation practice of about 45 to 60 minutes, then about an hour of bhajans during which he gives darshan in samadhi.

Shivabalayogi serves all people without regard to origin, background, religion, or beliefs. His blessings and initiation are given without obligation. It is up to each individual whether they adopt him as guru, teacher or friend. His blessings serve to deepen whatever spiritual path or commitment we wish to pursue.
