How does Siddha Yoga cure Diseases

[dilipnachna]

Diseases that humans suffer are classified by modern medical science into two broad categories — physical and mental. These are treated with internal medicines and/or external medicines or therapeutic applications.

Ancient Indian sages delved deep into the mysteries of life through meditation and learned that diseases are not caused by accidental exposure to germs or pathogens, as medical scientists believe. The sages learned that much of human suffering is actually caused by the actions of each individual in his/her past life. Each action — good or bad — leads to a reaction in the same life cycle or carried over to the next. Since each individual is trapped in an unending cycle of life and death, the human suffering through diseases and highs and lows of life continue ceaselessly.

Modern science does not accept continuance of life after physical death. That is why it looks for physical solutions to diseases but fails to come up with lasting cures. If science finds cure for one disease, other more challenging ones afflict the human race. This is because they refuse to believe that the root of the problem lies far beyond the physical existence of human being.

Indian yogis however learned that beyond the physical and mental afflictions lies the spiritual disease. In other words, the spiritual Law of Karma — actions of the past resulting in diseases and other forms of suffering in the present life — governs human existence, life after life in a never-ending cycle.

In his treatise ‘Yoga Sutra’, the Indian sage Patanjali classified the diseases into three categories – physical (Aadhidehik), mental (Aadhibhautik) and spiritual (Aadhidaivik).

A spiritual disease needs a spiritual remedy. Only regular practice of yoga under the guidance of a spiritual master like Guru Siyag can help the practitioner find a spiritual remedy for all his/her afflictions. It is only guru who can help a disciple to cut through the web of Karmic past, to get rid of disease/s and to realize the true purpose of his/ her life through self-realization.

Guru Siyag has proved in a number of cases that the practical application of yoga can indeed heal and even cure chronic ailments such as arthritis and diabetes, and terminal diseases such as cancer and HIV/AIDS. Countless patients, practically given up for dead by doctors, have not only survived and regained good health but are also leading almost normal lives after seeking Guru Siyag’s blessings as a last resort and getting initiated into Siddha Yoga. (Please see section Siddha Yoga). Yoga takes over and succeeds where modern medical science reaches its final limitations in finding lasting relief or cure for a disease.

It is not surprising therefore that most patients who have lost all of hopes of survival even after trying out every possible medical option, usually come to Guru Siyag for help.

Complete cure of AIDS by Siddha Yoga:

Bhanwar Lal Jaat, a resident of Jodhpur (Rajasthan-India) was one such patient who had become a full-blown case of AIDS in its final stage. Doctors treating him, one day discharged him from the hospital where he was undergoing treatment and asked his close relations to take him home as he was on the brink of death. It was in this condition that Bhanwar Lal was brought to Guru Siyag on a stretcher one October afternoon in 2002. He could neither speak nor could he move his limbs. He barely managed to blink his eyelids in affirmation, when Guru Siyag asked him if he could hear. Guru Siyag then gave Bhanwar Lal a divine word, and told him to silently chant the mantra continuously. Desperate to live, Bhanwar Lal did as he was told, and began to show visible signs of recovery in a matter of one week to the utter astonishment of all around him. He later put on weight and regained normal health. Since then, he has been leading a normal life. He has no HIV-negative certificate though. Despite the tell-tale signs of Bhanwar Lal’s amazing recovery from AIDS and his apparent healthy condition today, the local medical fraternity refuses to probe his case as it scoffs at the idea of a spiritual cure of a disease that even doctors in the advanced West have not been able to find.
Cancer cured by Siddha Yoga Meditation:

The case of Mrs Sushila, a resident of Bikaner (Rajasthan-India), who suffered from Leukemia was also similar. In the April of 2000, her WBC count reached dangerous levels. As a last resort, her family sought alternative healing and were soon told by friends about Guru Siyag. In May 200, Sushila took initiation from Guru Siyag. Just nine days after taking initiation from Guru Siyag, Sushila began to show amazing recovery. Within two months of practicing Siddha Yoga, Sushila’s WBC count were found to be within normal range.
The word about spectacular recovery patients such as Bhanwar Lal and Sushila spread like wild fire around the country and soon desperate HIV/AIDS and cancer patients started pouring into Guru Siyag’s Ashram to seek his divine help for their survival. The same has been the case with people suffering from cancer. Adhyatma Vigyan Satsang Kendra (AVSK), the spiritual organization headed by Guru Siyag, has compiled the data of a large number of terminal and chronic cases of diseases cured. (To protect the identity of patients, the laboratory / clinical reports of patients are not available for general public scrutiny. However, these reports can be made available on request. Please email or call us if you want us to send you these reports. In your email or telephone call please state the reason in requesting these reports. If satisfied with your explanation, we will send you the reports.)

Typically, however, in almost every case of amazing recovery of a patient through Guru Siyag’s Siddha Yoga, medical doctors refused to acknowledge the incredible reversal of a disease for which they had no plausible explanation.

The benefit of Guru Siyag’s divine powers can be extended to greater number of people in India and even abroad. However, his repeated attempts to reach out have run into the wall of indifference displayed by Government bureaucracy, politicians and the urban elite, which has no real faith in healing powers of the divine force.

It is in the face of this persistent indifference and even a degree of hostility at home in India that Guru Siyag is now trying to reach out to the West to take the benefits of Siddha Yoga to humanity around the world. He is aware that people with the scientific approach in the West have an open mind in probing new horizons of knowledge even if such knowledge doesn’t fit into the rigid criteria of physical science but gives desired results all the same.

Philosophy of Siddha Yoga
Siddha Yoga is based on the philosophy of Yoga as propounded by ancient sage Matsyendra Nath and codified later by another sage Patanjali in a treatise titled 'Yoga Sutra' several thousand years ago. Mythology has it that Matsyendra Nath was the fist human to learn of Yoga from Lord Shiva, who is the embodiment of the eternal supreme consciousness, in the latter’s celestial abode in the Himalayas. The sage was asked to gift the knowledge of Yoga to mankind for its salvation. The knowledge and wisdom contained in Yoga was handed down from ages to ages in the time honored Guru-Shishya (master-disciple) tradition. Guru is therefore an institution in the Yoga tradition, which is central to the practice of Yoga.

Yoga is considered an integral tool of the vast body of Vedic (Hindu) literature that covers the whole gamut of Indian spirituality. The 'Yoga Sutra', containing just 195 aphorisms, lucidly elucidates the eight stages of the 'Ashtang' (eight-fold) Yoga, which a seeker passes through as he progresses along the spiritual path.

Yoga is immensely beneficial in curing bodily and mental diseases and restoring and harmonizing the psycho-physical balance in a human body. However, using it for this purpose alone is to leave out its sole aim — liberating the seeker from the bondage of Karmas (actions), which tie him down to the perennial cycle of life and death. For more details : How yoga cures diseases .

Yogic philosophy recognizes the subtle link between the human body and the cosmic Supramental Consciousness, which is responsible for the body's very creation. A potent force lies dormant at the base of the spinal column in every human body. Because it is coiled around the base of the spinal column in three and a half spirals, the ancient sages called it ‘Kundalini’, the coiled one (like a snake). ‘Kundalini’ is considered the feminine divine, ‘Shakti’, which, according to Vedic scriptures, is the very cosmic energy force responsible for the manifestation of the physical/material world.

Since ‘Kundalini’ is the cosmic energy that originates from the Supramental Consciousness, it is an omniscient force, which enables the Yoga practitioner to realize his true self. Once this self-realization is achieved, the Yoga practitioner is led to Moksha, the final liberation from worldly existence and its attendant miseries.

There is a close link between ‘Kundalini’ and an intricate network of 72,000 ‘Nadis’, vein-like structures that exists in the whole of the human body. Three of these ‘Nadis’ are like arterial ways that spiral upwards from the base of the spinal column all the way to the roof the brain, called ‘Sahasrahara’. The middle artery, also considered the major pathway, is known as ‘Sushumana’. The other two arteries on either side of ‘Sushmana’ are called ‘Ida’ and ‘Pingala’. Six ‘Chakras’ and three ‘Granthis’ — consciousness centers or cosmic energy hubs are located vertically above one another at brief intervals in ‘Sushmana’.

This entire network of ‘Nadis’, ‘Chakras’ and ‘Granthis’ exists, in another dimension not known to science, in so subtle a form that no high-tech laboratory gadgets can ever detect its presence. However, when ‘Kundalini’ is awakened through chanting of divine mantra and meditation, it rises through ‘Sushmana’ to reach ‘Sahasrahara’, its final destination where it’s Master — ‘Param Shiva’ — the eternal supramental consciousness resides. As it spirals upwards through ‘Sushmana’, ‘Kundalini’ energizes the whole network of ‘Nadis’ and pierces the ‘Chakras’ one by one. The awakened ‘Kundalini’ gets connected directly to the Supramental Consciousness through the ‘Sushumana’ pathway. As a result of this, every pore and cell in the human body is purified and purged of its bodily and mental afflictions, making the Yoga practitioner energized and ready for the onward spiritual journey. The outward manifestations of this cleansing process are Yogic ‘Kriyas’ or involuntary body movements that occur during Siddha Yoga meditation. Swaying from side to side, rapid movement of the head, clapping and uncoordinated movement of hands are some of the most typical of these ‘Kriyas’.

To an untrained or uninitiated observer, these may look bizarre or even alarming. But they are neither abnormal nor do they cause any bodily harm. ‘Kundalini’, being an all-knowing energy force, is aware of which body part or organ is in acute need of healing or cleansing. So, the ‘Kundalini’ makes the practitioner perform ‘Kriyas’ that are specific to his needs. With this cleansing, the practitioner is cured of all kinds of chronic and even terminal diseases such as HIV, AIDS, cancer, arthritis etc., and genetic disorders like hemophilia, mental afflictions too are completely cured and stress is completely relieved.

Also, the piercing of different consciousness centers equips the practitioner with Siddhis (powers) such as increased intuition, the ability to see unlimited past and future and perceive the existence of worlds beyond the physical one that we live in. When the ‘Kundalini’ reaches ‘Sahasrahara’, the practitioner’s spiritual journey is complete as it is here that he realizes his true self. This realization releases him from the bondage of Karmas, which is the root cause of all human miseries. It is also here that the seeker realizes that he is himself the Brahman, the eternal Supramental Consciousness, the state which also known as Moksha.

The Vedic scriptures acknowledge the interplay of ‘Brahman’, the formless, limitless, eternal and never-changing Supramental Consciousness on one hand and its manifestation as the consciousness in the ever-changing material world. The consciousness in the material world, which impacts all animate and inanimate objects, is made up of a combination of three ‘Gunas’ (qualities) — ‘Sattva’ (lighted, pure, intelligent and positive), ‘Rajas’ (passionate and energetic) and ‘Tamas’ (negative, dark, dull and inert).

Sattva is the force of equilibrium. Sattva translates in quality as good and harmony, and happiness and light. Rajas is the force of kinesis. Rajas translates in quality as struggle and effort, passion and action. Tamas is the force of inconscience and intertia. Tamas translates in quality as obscurity, incapacity and inaction.

All the creatures, including humans, possess these Gunas. However, no existence is cast in the single mould of any of these three modes of the cosmic force. All the three qualities are present in everyone and everywhere. There is a constant combining and separating of the shifting relations of these qualities. They constantly struggle to influence or dominate each other. This is the reason why no person is consistently good or bad; intelligent or dull; active or lethargic.


When ‘Satvic’ quality in dominant in a person, it propels him toward seeking greater consciousness so that he could free himself from Karmic bondage and return to the Supramental Consciousness to which he originally belongs. Domination by either ‘Rajasic’ or ‘Tamasic’ quality leads the person onto an unending cycle of pleasure and pain and life and death. The practice of Siddha Yoga leads to the ascent of ‘Satvic’ qualities and eventual progress to Moksha, the final spiritual liberation.

Each person has certain tendencies, called Vrittis that guide his overall behavior. Tendencies are in turned influenced by the three gunas of Sattva, Rajas and Tamas. Each of these Gunas can be elevated or suppressed through the practice of Yoga, according to The Geeta and ‘Yoga Sutras’ by ancient sage Patanjali. Lord Krishna tells his chosen disciple Arjuna in the epic Mahabharata that elevation of Sattva Guna and suppression of Rajas and Tamas Gunas through meditation can help the practitioner develop and strengthen Sattvic or pure tendencies while suppressing Rajasic and Tamsic tendencies so that he/she can gain lasting health and true higher knowledge and self-realization.

According to Vedic scriptures, only a Siddha Guru, an empowered spiritual master, with an altruistic aim can bring about a positive change in human Gunas and Vrittis by initiating a spiritual seeker into Yoga. Since Sattva is a force of equilibrium that ushers in true wisdom, its elevation on mass scale can transform the entire mankind by eliminating conflicts and discords, and bind the whole humanity together with peace and harmony.

This is the mission — spiritual transformation of mankind — that Guru Siyag has undertaken by promoting the practice of Siddha Yoga.

Guru Siyag has proclaimed, “I have set out alone to elevate the Sattva Guna in mankind and to destroy all its Tamsic tendencies completely. No single nation, religion, race or caste can claim a monopolistic right over me.”
