SAMYAMA FLOWERING TREE
FOREWORD
Humanity is experiencing a rebirth, and we are so ready for a potent transformation of consciousness. As we move from the density of our mind and old egoic state of consciousness, and awaken beyond the suffering of our deeply entrenched patterns, we experience a rich life filled with tremendous Love, Truth, Inspiration, Joy, Light and truly living together in unity on this planet. We are learning to embrace the gift of awareness that we create our Reality each day and in every moment. As we continue to shift into this new paradigm, it is of utmost importance to have evolutionary tools to support and nurture us through these changing times. You are about to learn powerful tools that will fundamentally change your life, your perceptions and your DNA. Congratulations for bringing yourself to this profound experience at this moment in time.
This sacred Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ manual that you are blessed to hold in your hands is a significant contribution to and Initiation for you to stretch beyond any limitations you may still be holding. It will support you in dismantling your old patterns and will offer you new illuminated perspectives.
These teachings and transmissions are a unique and unparalleled training that give you the opportunity to accelerate the evolution of your health and physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. You will experience climbing the ladder of consciousness with these channeled words and clear vibrations leading to a beautiful communion with the Creator—receiving an even deeper sense of Self and greater insights. The opportunity you are being offered is to bring unimaginable changes to your life. I suggest to you, dear reader, to make the most of this good karma that you have received, and you will naturally receive excellent results as the sessions create a blueprint for a supreme state of being. Please remember that the rippling effects of your personal transformation offer a great healing for those in your life as well as for our planet. Breathe deeply and allow space to receive all these gifts that you and our great Universe so deserve.
I have had the great privilege of experiencing each of these exercises both in personal sessions with Samyama and while attending multiple Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ practitioner trainings. I experienced great healings with each session through these profound transmissions. By utilizing these tools for myself, as a spiritual seeker, and also as a practitioner of this method, my clients and I have experienced a rich purification by releasing old impressions, beliefs, karma, impurities and patterns into the embodiment of supreme light. I trust that you will experience tremendous results, too, as you enter a deep state of letting go of that which no longer serves you. This training is magnificent and yet represents only a small portion of the vast wisdom, teachings and Grace that Samyama and her Lineage offer.
I am so very blessed to have the great honor of knowing the creator of this manual, Samyama, both personally and professionally. She is a magnificent Teacher, Master Spiritual Astrologer, powerful practitioner and one of my very dearest and most beloved friends. Samyama has been a beautiful heart whispering great teachings and Unconditional Love to me and to the students, clients, and practitioners at my wellness center in Connecticut. She is a very noble woman, filled with Grace, and an embodiment of the Divine Mother.
Samyama eloquently shares an endless appreciation for her Lineage and the teachings of her teachers, the immortal Mahavatar Babaji and His immortal sister, Shree Mataji. She also generously shares all the Divine information she receives directly from our great Creator. I experience Samyama as an embodiment of limitless possibilities and her contribution to our planet is great beyond imagination. Through the beauty of her tremendous heart and transcendent compassion for humanity, Samyama generously shares with all of us the gifts of Universal Consciousness and Unconditional Love. In her presence, each seeker has the opportunity to receive a deeper level of Truth, powerful Shaktipat, and an all-encompassing and healing embrace. Enjoy all the rebirthing you are about to receive and thank you for taking responsibility for bettering yourself and humanity.

INTRODUCTION
Greetings, Beloved Companions to Evolution!
As we embark along the great Evolutionary journey that is Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™, I would like to say a few words about my personal experience of my Teacher and Spiritual Mentor, Samyama and this extraordinary healing modality that she has brought to Planet Earth. My name is Munishwarji Bayazid, and I serve as a Head Trainer of Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ and have been a Student of Samyama for many years. It is a great honor to be asked to write the introduction to this book.
My meeting with Samyama was one of the most magical moments of my life, the full impact of which I did not realize until much later. In fact, the miracles of our meeting are still unfolding. A number of years ago, I was attending a program at a spiritual center in North Georgia. Samyama also happened to be at the same spiritual center attending another program that was taking place simultaneously. I was sitting in the dining hall during a lunch break, and I stood up from the table to take my tray into the kitchen. Through the doorway, walked Samyama. Her eyes were filled with Light and loving-kindness. She moved silently as if each footstep were a prayer. As she approached me, she said, Oh, how precious!
She gave me the biggest, warmest hug I had ever experienced. I immediately fell in love with this sweet, kind woman whom I was meeting for the first time in this lifetime. At that point, I had no idea that she was a Great Teacher. I didn’t even know or ask her name. Her Beingness was enough—her Mere Presence being the embodiment of Pure and Taintless Expanding Unconditional Love. In her Presence, the Lotus Petals of my Heart began to unfold. That one encounter began a powerful transformation within me that is still ongoing today, and I see similar transformations occur with everyone she encounters.
I have had the great privilege of working with Samyama one-on-one for a number of years and am intimately familiar with the Great Work of Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ that is the culmination of her more than fifty-five years of spiritual study. Like the poetic spiritual texts of the Olden Times, the words contained in this book were heard by Samyama in her profound state of meditation. Samyama received these sessions on a daily basis from Bhagwan Karttikeya beginning in 1958 while in a deep Yogic trance. In 2007, Samyama was requested to memorialize these Teachings in written form and to bring them to the world to benefit humanity during this unprecedented time of growth and expansion.
Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ is a healing modality that is useful for anyone wanting to contact the deepest part of themselves and to escalate their personal evolution to Higher Consciousness. It is an esoteric spiritual therapy for those who are consciously progressing on a Spiritual Path and are ready for more advanced spiritual unfoldment. Hatha Yoga practitioners have found great benefit from this modality during shavasana (the corpse pose), as it creates the space for deep integration of the Wisdom acquired during asana practice, as well as Evolution on the Higher Planes. Practitioners of language-based healing modalities, such as Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), have likewise found great synergies in incorporating Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ into their existing work.
Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ is an ancient methodology that uses spiritually empowering language to put the recipient into a deep hypnogogic state. A hypnogogic state is not to be confused with hypnosis, although hypnotherapists find Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ a complementary addition to Western guided imagery and creative visualization techniques, and this modality is highly recommended for those trained in Western hypnotherapy. A hypnogogic state is the natural state we experience momentarily just before going to sleep when the passive and active minds change roles of dominance. The recipient is led through a spiritually guided visualization and, while in the hypnogogic state, the recipient’s unconscious (subconscious) mind and Soul hears the spiritually empowering language of the sessions even if the recipient is not consciously aware of them. The recipient experiences a deep relaxation ending with the knowledge that they have had great internal shifts in Awareness to Higher Consciousness.
The overall purpose of Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ is to allow the recipient’s body to heal itself using the teachings contained in the Scriptures of East and West. Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ familiarizes the recipient’s atoms, molecules, DNA, tissues, cells, blood, bodily fluids, muscles, bones and internal organs with the Teachings of the Bible (both Old and New Testaments) and the Teachings of the Eastern Masters. The recipient receives whatever Teachings are most beneficial to them in that moment. Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ uses the Ancient and Ageless Wisdom of men and women of Planet Earth, along with the Holy Scriptures of the World, to assist in the healing of our Brethren and Planet Earth.
Karttikeyan Yoga Nidra™ pierces, opens, clears and cleanses all of the recipient’s chakras to the degree that is most beneficial for the recipient based on their evolutionary state. It aids in their Actualization, Enlightenment, Illumination and attainment of the State of an Ecstatic Being, whichever is most appropriate for the person receiving the session. A session leaves the recipient profoundly touched. They will feel Integrated and Unified with their True Self and with Spirit. Much of the stress in their life will recede into the background, paving the way to a clearer sense of who they are and where they are going, and connecting them to the deeper purpose of their life.
To fully appreciate these profound Teachings, its serves one to understand the history, beauty and majesty of the spiritual tradition from which they came—the Taoist Yogi-Christ Lineage International. The Taoist Yogi-Christ Lineage International was founded by Mahavatar Babaji, the Immortal Yogi-Christ of the Himalayas, and is currently headed by a Holy Hierophant composed of five Presiding Deities. A "Hierophant" is a being who serves as a Holy Vessel for the transmission of Sacred Mysteries and Esoteric Wisdom, bringing Spiritual Aspirants into the Presence of that which is deemed Holy by acting as a Supreme Intercessor for the Divine. The Holy Hierophant of the Taoist Yogi-Christ Lineage International is composed of the Hotei (Lord Maitreya—the Laughing Buddha), Lord Jesus, Bhagwan Karttikeya, Mahavatar Babaji and Lord Shiva, all of whom preside side by side as co-workers for the Evolution of Planet Earth. Bhagwan
