DEM Introduction
·It is the essence of the Vedas, the Upanishads the teachings of 
great sages,Prophets, Religious holy books and religions.
·       It is combination of Ancient wisdom and modern science.   
    Swamy Vivevakananda
·       Swami Vivekananda expressed “Each soul is potentially divine.
   The goal of life is to manifest this divinity within by controlling nature,
    internal and external”. 
   Man is a store house of energy
·         Man is an integral part of Divinity,
     all divine powers are hidden in the human soul in seed form.
·                              Human soul is a store house of supreme knowledge, wisdom,
    and extraordinary powers, specific energies lie hidden in the glands.

   Sun is the fountain of Prana Shakthi   

Ø       The Sun is the fountain source of strength, vitality, The sun generates vital force or prana shakthi .
Ø      There is a greater change in nature’s energy. At the time of sunrise and sunset whole environment gets charged with positive source of energy and we should make the best use of this positive energy.   
    Divine pranic energy – shat Chakras, sushumna
Ø      Sun can activate the body chakras or power points. The omnipotent sun’s presence can change, arrange, reduce, remove imbalances and organize the chemical, bio-chemical,
    bio-electrical and bio-magnetic powers in living beings. Sunlight has greater therapeutic value.
Ø       Divine pranic energy is released at the time of sunrise and sunset.
Ø      Ancient yogis and modern scientist also explained that our body has so many energy centers or SHATCHAKRAS which have internally potential divine energy.
   Through the PRANAKARSHANA KRIYA we can receive sun’s divine pranic energy by breathing.
It activates our inner energy centers and chakras.
Ø      The observence of DEM activates the network of nerves in the body and stimulates specific glands. No sooner do they get stimulated the vibrations of resulting in a DEM  symphony are created which spreads in the ether, takes a round of the entire universe and comes  back to the source with its energy augmented manifold, capable of fulfilling the desired purpose.
Ø Emotions first arise in human mind and when the mind concentrates on such emotions a magnetic field is created which attracks the desired elements from the atmosphere.
ü    This is the science of meditation
Timings For DEM SADHANA
Ø    It should be started exactly at either sunrise or at sunset. Twilight is the best. ancient vedic times were not used to take food during that time.  They used to energize themselves with sunsrays. When inner divine energy is activated it easily leads to deep meditation i.e., turiyastiti, Alfa stage or subconscious stage, which had reached our Ancient Sages during the tapas, i.e., sadhana.
Ø Divine pranic energy is the link between the physical and the astral bodies. It is the universal principle of energy and vital source.Sadhakas get strength, vigor, vitality and exhileration of spirits.
Ø      If you can control the breath or prana, the mind is also easily controlled.
               
     PRANAKARSHANAKRIYA
POSTURE

Ø      The divine pranic Energy does not merely depend on inhalation and exhalation of air. Firm belief and feeling also serve the person of getting divine pranic energy.
Ø      The more the feeling and belief we have, the more the result in getting  divine pranic energy. 
Ø      Close the eyes and relax the shoulders and the whole body completely. Inhale through both the nostrils as much as you can.  Draw the air in through both the nostrils breath in.
Ø      You should feel that great divine pranic energy is entering now with inhalation.
Ø      Retain it as long as you can.  Retain the breath and hold it.
Ø      During the holding (Kumbakam). The Divine pranic energy reaches and recharges all minute parts of the body to become active in this process.
Ø      And then exhale as much as you can breath out.
Ø      During the exhalation (Rechakam) the sadhak should feel that ill health, Ignorance and negative thoughts are  sent out.
Ø      Then hold retained breath as long as you can
Ø       The feeling that these negative thoughts ill health..etc.. have no chance to enter any more inside during the (Bahyakumbakam) outer holding, should continue.Repeat this process.  This will constitute one round Do every day five rounds to ten rounds gradually.
   DIVINE ENERGY MEDITATION
PRACTICE:
Ø      Sit in any comfortable meditative posture feeling completely relax.Close your eyes and start
Ø      Watch the breath very carefully and you will know this:     When you inhale the breath, The sound ‘so’ is produced.
     When you exhale ‘Ham’ is produced.
Ø      This is termed Ajapa – mantra, or Ajapa Gayathri
Ø      Because this is done without moving the Lips along with the breath.
Ø      Repeat ‘so’ mentally when you inhale. ‘Ham’ mentally when you exhale.So-Ham is the breath of Life. If you concentrate on the breath. You will notice that the breath is gradually becoming very very slow. When concentration becomes deep gradually the repetation of  ‘so-Ham’ will drop.When there is deep concentration the mind will become very calm.
      If you can control the breath, the mind is also easily controlled. 
‘SO- HAMS means I AM HE. You are unconsciously repeating ‘SOHAM’
21,600 times daily at the rate of 15 ‘SOHAMS’ per minute.  Associate the ideas of Existence, Knowledge, Bliss, Absolute, Purity, Peace, Perfection.  Love, etc., along with SOHAM.

And what Patanajali Maharshi explained
 
|| Yogaha Chitta Uruthi Nirodhaha||
Ø      “Yoga is restraining the mind-stuff from taking various forms”.
Ø      When you cannot handle your mind directly, along with‘ So- Ham’ you can control and handle the mind. Don’t control and follow the thoughts and distractions just observed it. Consciously observe it. Observe original nature as a Sakshi (witness). don’t involve with any distractions.
    Divine Energy Meditation – Uses

Ø      Wisdom, virtuousness’ and divine energy are  infused in him. In proportion to the efficacy of sadhana , wisdom, purity and peace  increase within his mind and body.The sadhak in due course, becomes a store of divine light  and energy.
