Tripura Foundation’s Siddhi (Supernormal) Powers Powerspot Trip +

Ambassadors of HoPE Trip 2015 (12 to 17 June 2015, South India)

Namaste everyone, I am delighted to announce the very special return of our SIDDHI (SUPERNORMAL) POWERS POWERSPOT TRIP (JUNE 2015). Our Siddhi (Supernormal) Powers Powerspot Trip in December 2012 & March 2013 were both memorable and profound trips. Everyone on both trip experienced their own personal connection with the Siddha masters who, by the end of our trip, were easily accessible to them. For most, it just meant closing their eyes in order to re-connect with these Siddha masters and be able to commune with them. Since our last trip (March 2013), many people have been writing in to ask for another Siddhi (Supernormal) Powers Powerspot Trip, and through divine grace, the time is right to hold another trip in June 2015 to give more people the divine opportunity to personally connect with these perfected masters whose compassionate goal is to help humanity evolve. For our trip in June 2015, as it will be under the auspices of Tripura Foundation, Dr Pillai (Babaji’s) charity foundation, the Siddhi (Supernormal) Powers Powerspot Trip will also be in part an Ambassadors of HoPE trip. For those of you who may not be aware, as a Tripura Foundation Ambassador of HoPe serve as an inspiration and beacon of hope to the HoPE Center children you will be meeting. We are inviting you to introduce these children to new cultures and to the world beyond their rural village by sharing with them about your home country and what you do there You will have the opportunity to learn and see for yourself how Tripura Foundation’s HoPE Centers and their other initiatives such as the HoPE for the Elderly programs are changing the lives of thousands of children and elderly on a day by day basis.

So journey with us into mystical realms of India where you will have direct encounters with such Siddha masters who live among us in their Light Body form. On this journey, you will spend extended periods of time in meditation at sacred powerspots (often unknown and inaccessible to the masses) and directly commune with such Siddha masters who are ever so waiting to bless you with divine gifts and supernormal abilities in order to help you in your personal spiritual and material evolution.

Objective of the Siddhi (Supernormal) Powers Powerspot Trip

The Siddhi (Supernormal) Powers Powerspot Trip will empower you to transcend the limitations of your five senses and what you think is humanly possible. We will to take on a journey beyond your limited mind and empower you to live in unity (siddhi) consciousness, where all things are possible.

SPEND extended periods of meditation at powerful Siddha samadhi powerspots;

ATTAIN blissful communion with the Siddha masters

ACQUIRE siddhi powers and develop your own supernormal abilities

SEEK instant divine help to solve your problems (health, relationship, money, financial, spiritual)

TAKE an ultimate karma busting purification bath at the Sea of Rama & 22 Sacred Rameshwaram Wells on the island of Rameshwaram, Dr Pillai’s birthplace

PURIFY yourself further with a karma busting pilgrimage around Mount Arunachala (the Mountain of Fire) at Thiruvanamalai. Pilgrims come all around the world to walk around Mount Arunachala in order to burn their negative karma and ego (known as the girivalam). To maximise your time at Thiruvanamalai, we will drive around the full circumference of Mt Arunachala and you will have the opportunity to seek the Divine’s karma busting grace from the comfort of your vehicle.

TAKE a healing and rejuvenating purification bath at the Coutralam waterfalls. The waters of the Coutralam waterfalls course through sacred ayurvedic herbs and medicinal plants before collecting in a shallow pool where we bathe at

Who are the Siddhas? As Dr Pillai (Babaji) states:

“The Siddhas literally means Perfected Beings. They are perfect in their body, perfect in their mind,

perfect in everything they do. Because they don't have a body, they can go everywhere they want to go and

help people”

The Siddhas & Siddhi Powers The Siddhas are perfected masters who have journeyed beyond enlightenment. Through divine grace and their own intense spiritual practices, the Siddhas acquired and attained siddhi powers and are able to perform supernormal feats beyond human comprehension. Two of the most famous Siddhas masters from the Siddha tradition, Siddha Thirumoolar (who revealed the Arakara manifesting mantra) and Siddha Patanjali (father of yoga) wrote about acquiring siddhi powers (such as powers of omniscience, omnipotence and omnipresence) in their epic works, Tirumantiram and Yoga Sutras respectively.

According to Nandhi (www.nandhi.com), a Siddha based in California, in their search for God, the path of the Siddhas is one that abandons the rigidity of one’s beliefs in favour of a life that is based on experience, teachings and grace of the Guru. A word on seeking siddhi powers: Conventional spiritual traditions have portrayed the seeking of siddhi powers as something to be shunned because acquiring such siddhi powers is said to inflate a spiritual aspirant’s ego and may derail his/her spiritual journey. The Siddhas believe the opposite - you acquire siddhis as result of grace and such gifts constantly remind you of the presence of the divine living within you. The Siddha way is the path of restraint and Siddha masters, though graced with siddhi powers, choose to live in solitude or among us in society, disguised as ordinary householders.

The World of the Siddhas Has Remained Unchanged for Thousands of Years Siddha Nandhi gives a beautiful description of how to understand the unchanging world of the Siddhas:

“The realm of the Siddhas is mystical, most times unbelievable and has remained unchanged over thousands of years. To envision this world, it is present to the life present in the extreme depth of the ocean existing under intense high pressure and total darkness, hardly ever disturbed by external forces. This would be an example to illustrate the world of the Siddhas beneath the known in Southern India which still vibrant and alive and yet far away from the rest of human civilisation.”

What is a Siddha samadhi shrine (brindava)? A Siddha samadhi shrine is a powerspot where the Siddha master decided (many hundreds or thousands of years ago) to establish himself permanently in his light form there in an act of compassion to make himself available to seekers who seek his help. A Siddha samadhi shrine is also referred to as “brindhava” which can be translated as “pleasure garden” i.e. where the Siddha remains in eternal heavenly bliss. Note that a Siddha samadhi shrine is not regarded a tomb. Many of the greatest Siddha samadhi shrines continue to be shrouded in secrecy and we have been blessed to have enlightened Siddha master, Dr Pillai (Baba), guide us to some of the most powerful Siddha samadhi shrines in South India to get the blessings of the Siddha saint at these powerspots When you visit a powerful Siddha’s samadhi shrine, you immediately connect with the Siddha there at a soul level, and with grace, are blessed with the boons you seek from him (including siddhi powers).

Serve as an Ambassador of HoPE and bring joy to the children of Tripura Foundation’s HoPE Centers. Where possible, we will visit a HoPE Center a day.

Your Commitment Required Be open and committed to doing what it takes to:

(i) accelerating your personal evolution (ii) pushing the boundaries beyond the limitations of your 5 senses (sight, smell, hearing, touch,

taste) in activating your own supernormal faculties

Be willing to sit in meditation / communion between 1 to 2 hours at each of the Siddha samadhi shrines we will be meditating at. This is important because we will be meditating closely together as a group at such samadhi shrines. If you are not willing to sit in silence for 1 to 2 hours and know that you will get restless, this will disrupt the meditation of other trip attendees.

For the SIDDHI (SUPERNORMAL) POWERS POWERSPOT TRIP 2015, group consciousness i.e. functioning together as a group, is key

TESTIMONIALS FROM OUR SIDDHI (SUPERNORMAL) POWERS

POWERSPOT TRIP TO INDIA (DEC 2012) ATTENDEES Dear all, We're very grateful to Mohini, Vijay, Yadeesh and most of all, Babaji for this very memorable trip. Although this is a sacred trip, it is remembered as one of the best and most enjoyable holidays I ever had. It’s also a very memorable as its end of 2012 and the start of the Golden Age. Both April and I did not expect to meet the Siddha Masters so easily. From our experiences, all of us can testify to their eternal presence; their Blessings and these are awesome unforgettable experiences. Jai Gurudev, April and Chay Firstly I would like to thank Dattatriya Siva Baba, Mohini and Vijay, for their blessing to visit the Samadhi Shrine of the 8 Siddhas, and Goddess Sri Shenbaga Devi & Angkali Amman Shrine, and I would also thank the Siddhas who have given their blessing for us, to be with them & getting blessing for the coming year. All the siddhas Shrines which we visited had a very strong energy pull.

at Patanjali’s samadhi shrine, the moment I entered the Shrine, lot of tears were flowing from my eyes

at Agasthiar’s samadhi shrine - while meditating from the 3rd eye I could see Siddha Agasthiar with a white dhoti

at Thirumoolar samadhi shrine - my body was started to move from left to right. I later learnt it was a divine kundalini movement

at Sri Guru Dakshinamurthy Swamigal’s samadhi shrine - after meditating, as I was leaning against Sri Guru Dakshinamurthy’s samadhi pillar, he made me bow down to His samadhi shrine and perform Namashakar to his samadhi

at Sri Vijayeendra’s, Siddha Iadikadar’s & Sri Sheshadri Swamigal’s samadhi shrine - I experienced a strong pull at the top of my head

After the bath from Coutralam & prayers from Sri Shenbaga Devi’s temple, I dozed off and in a vision, I saw a yellow flower being dropped into my hand.

at Goddess Angkali Amman’s Temple - while I was walking around Her shrine, during the 3rd

round, the top of my head started spin and I believe it was my crown chakra becoming active.

After the trip, when I returned home, while I was thinking about Goddess Angkali Amman with my eyes closed, all of a sudden, there was golden coloured lion in front of my eyes.

May the blessing and the grace of the Siddhas be with all of us Regards Thanes
