Love Emerges When the Mind Dissolves
by Yogmata Keiko Aikawa
The Siddha master Yogmata Keiko Aikawa teaches us that through the practices of the Himalayan Wisdom we may not just attain true and lasting happiness and success in this life but ultimately dissolve into the very heart of love. She carries us through her own journey to realization by way of the eight stages of Samadhi (“ultimate consciousness”), evolved over five-thousand years of experimentation. These meditation forms are designed to remove all existential weights and, integrating with the wave pattern of creation, allow us to become as radiant as the sun—the Anugraha (“divine grace”). In this illustrated, practical introduction and guide to our true nature, Yogmata-Ji addresses, among other eternal human questions, how our minds work, our individual and collective purpose on Earth, and the origin of suffering. Written in a clear, down-to-earth, and inspiring style, this book illuminates the nature of our primordial wisdom and is essential reading for all who seek its manifestation.
Yogmata Keiko Aikawa was born in 1945 in Japan. She developed an early interest in yoga and naturopathy, which led her to travels in Tibet, China and India. She was one of earliest promoters of yoga in Japan, and in 1972 she founded the General Health Institute, where she taught her unique Yoga Dance and Pranadi Yoga. In 1984, she met the Siddha Master Pilot Baba while he was in Japan on a speaking tour. He invited her to study among the Siddha Masters in the high Himalayas, where she reaching the final stages of Samadhi. In 1991, Yogmata-Ji performed her first of many public Samadhis, a supreme yogic practice in which she was sealed in a small, air-tight underground enclosure without food or water for seventy-two to ninety-six hours. She has received the title of Mahamandaleshwar, or Supreme Master of the Universe, in India. Yogmata-Ji is the first woman and non-Indian to achieve this status. She is currently working with the United Nations on a series of international conferences. Yogmata-Ji's charitable work includes the Yogmata Foundation dedicated to funding mobile hospitals to remote villages in India. Her global mission is to bring love and kindness to all. She has published over thirty books.
