Energy Enhancement Meditation and the Hercules Labour of the Augean Stables
By:Swami Satchidanand
This technique of Energy Circulation and Grounding is referred to in the 12 Labours of Hercules. Ancient teachings taught now in many different cultures, here in the form of a mythical story, thousands of years old, which enable "The Son (Hercules) of God (Zeus or Deus)" to get married to the daughter of the king of the underworld. To integrate the Crown Chakra with the Base Chakra or how to become enlightened.
All ancient myths refer to hidden levels of meditation.
The Twelve Labours Of Hercules Or Heracles Symbolises That Which Is Neccessary On The Path Of Enlightenment
Throughout history, simple stories and symbols containing many levels of psychological meaning have usually not been destroyed by the prevalent Religion as have been the competing religions temples and texts. In particular The Herculean Labour of the cleaning of the Augean stables refers to the cleaning of the Base Chakra with a River of Energy.
The Fifth labour of Hercules.
In the past, psychologists have only worked on one painful experience at a time by providing a meaningful theory by Freud or Jung and then examining the problem. Through understanding the problem, it is released and the client adjusted back into society in his proper place. He may still be neurotic because only one problem has been solved.
The same with ancient lives. We may travel back to, see and fix one life problem in one of our past lives, but what about the other thousands of life-times, each with their own traumas, deaths and problems.
This ancient meditation available in many cultures all over the world, teaches how to remove all of the traumas, deaths and problems as simple negative energy. You do not have to see the problems. They are simply grounded as Negative energy. Learn how to simply, "Ground the last dregs of your VITRIOL!"
There is an ancient Greek myth about Hercules, (a Son of God, Zeus or Deus), wanting to marry Persephone the Daughter of the King of the underworld. The Crown Chakra wanting to combine with the Base Chakra. Shiva combining with Shakti. A Human Being becoming Enlightened.
He needed to ask her father's permission. When he did, her father was pleased to marry his daughter to the son of Zeus, but first he must perform 12 tasks. The 12 labours of Hercules.
The fifth task was to clean out the Kings stables - The Augean stables. Hercules said, "No Problem," but when he saw the stables, he realised what a mountainous task he had taken on. There were thousands of horses and they had been creating manure for hundreds of years. Just like we, ourselves, create and absorb pain and Karma over thousands of lifetimes.
At first, he tried to dig the manure, examining every turd. Just like the psychologists and past life therapists of today. But after one month he had got nowhere. He had only cleared a small hole in a mountain of shit.
After much thought, he then projected to change the course of the river Styx, the river we cross when we die, through the stables. When he did this, the stables were quickly cleaned as the river washed all the manure away.
Deep Rivers of Energy lie hidden deep within us. As we learn to access and then to use them. So, All our History. All our pain can be dissipated and washed away
This story teaches basic methods whereby the mountains of manure within us can be removed, painlessly, without examining every turd.
The whole mountain can gradually be moved and our History painting which has been painted brushful by brushful, day by day, can be returned to the clean white sheet we were when we were born.
We are full of a lot of "History" not only from this life, but also from previous lives. Our ancient guided meditations can truly remove this Personal History so that all painful memories can be dissipated and our energies can then start to flow in their natural courses, once again.
And It’s A Painless Process Because these Ancient and Successful meditations work at The Level Of Energy.
It is not enough to pick up one piece of shit and examine it and say "Ah yes, this was the pain I absorbed when my father died. Or in that lifetime when I continued on such a stupid path."
We need to be able to transmute it all!
Also the Labour of Hercules involving the Hydra. As Hercules chopped off one head with his sword another 2 grew back in its place. The Hydra symbolises the mind. Its heads the many negative thoughts we have which need to be dissipated.
The Dragon/Hydra always Symbolises Kundalini Energy.
The method of Energy Circulation is an ancient and hidden technique preserved in Taoism and Hindu Kundalini Kriyas.
It is the most gentle and effective tool for all those who want to increase their energy, their evolution, their genius.

Lucid dreaming means dreaming while you know that you are dreaming. The term was coined by Frederik van Eeden who used the word "lucid" in the sense of mental clarity. With practice nearly anyone can experience lucid dreams.
Lucidity is not the same as dream control. It is possible to be lucid and have little control over the dream. However, becoming lucid in a dream is likely to increase your ability to deliberately influence the events within the dream.

It is commonly believed myth that personality testing instruments can measure your personality and predict your future behaviors.

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, fourth edition, text revision [American Psychiatric Association. DSM-IV-TR, Washington, 2000] - or the DSM-IV-TR for short - describes Axis II personality disorders as "deeply ingrained, maladaptive, lifelong behavior patterns".

Are all personality disorders the outcomes of frustrated narcissism?
During our formative years (6 months to 6 years old), we are all "narcissists". Primary Narcissism is a useful and critically important defense mechanism. As the infant separates from his mother and becomes an individual, it is likely to experience great apprehension, fear, and pain.

- 9). Common Features of Personality Disorders By : Sam Vaknin
Psychology is more an art form than a science. There is no "Theory of Everything" from which one can derive all mental health phenomena and make falsifiable predictions. Still, as far as personality disorders are concerned, it is easy to discern common features. Most personality disorders share a set of symptoms (as reported by the patient) and signs (as observed by the mental health practitioner).

- 10). Cluster B Personality Disorders By : Sam Vaknin
The DSM-IV-TR (2000) defines a personality disorder as:
"An enduring pattern of inner experience and behavior that deviates markedly from the expectations the individuals culture (and is manifested in two or more of his or her areas of mental life:) cognition, affectivity, interpersonal functioning, or impulse control."
Such a pattern is rigid, long-term (stable), and recurrent.
