Saturday, January 31, 1998<br />

Today she woke up at 4:37 AM and surprisingly did not feel lazy<br />

about getting out of the bed so early on weekend. Last night she watched<br />

Sai Baba's Guru Poornima video tape and this morning she remembered<br />

how he did not want us to just do the rituals instead make sincere effort<br />

to understand the truth about ourselves i.e. the Atman. So, for the first<br />

time she did not even turn on the lights of the mandir and sat down for<br />

the meditation. Soon after she closed her eyes she started seeing the<br />

usual blue light, in the center of this blue light there appeared a faint<br />

white light formation which soon took the shape of a man (very similar<br />

to Shirdi Baba's standing pose picture in our mandir). At the same time<br />

she heard Baba say "many times you have doubted that the light you see<br />

upon eye closing could be due to the light in the mandir, today your<br />

mandir lights are not on, and you still can see. Shivangini, try to see<br />

closely, as you get closer and closer to me you will see your chosen form<br />

clearer and clearer, but remember that I don't have any form." For some<br />

reason she felt happy. She asked how to look at Him more closely and he<br />

guided; during meditations spend some time on concentrating on each of<br />

the seven chakra's one by one and use the technique previously taught<br />

(clock wise, very slow rotation of the round wheel around each chakra).<br />

After this step use the technique that you once heard (reference was to<br />

the guy who used to own Hard Rock cafe chains and in one of annual Sai<br />

Center retreats in Chicago he referred to this technique which <strong>Dolly</strong> saw<br />

on a video tape that her friend M gave her). That technique was to<br />

imagine yourself as a stem of tree, with every inhale pull up energy from<br />

the Sun through its branches then alter this with the second inhale where<br />

stem is to pull the energy from the soil at bottom through its roots. Then<br />

pull energy from top and bottom and try to bring it together in the middle<br />

of the stem. Baba said "both of these techniques will help loosen the<br />

knots in the chakra. But don't make this a measure of your progress."<br />

Rest of the meditation was continued with a vision of still light screens<br />

.... one time yellowish white, one time deep blue and one time greenish<br />

white light. Regardless of the color it was very peaceful and calm<br />

feeling.<br />
