I Got Initiated Into Shambhavi Mahamudra

Namaskaram, I have not written in many months but as life goes on we do a lot of things, somethings are good and uplift us while other things are stupid and lame and probably waste of precious human life and I have done a good amount of stupid things but one good thing which I did recently to uplift  myself is taking initiation of Shambhavi Mahamudra from Isha Foundation's Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev.

Me on the day of Initiation

The experience was magical but I have been postponing Shambhavi from many years for two main reasons. Firstly, the money part as I still don't earn any money God knows why, I couldn't buy the program. Thanks to Sadhguru he made the program free for 4 days in Mahashivratri 2026 and I signed up. Second reason is my health, I have type one diabetes which makes it very very very hard for me to sit for longer durations that too with an empty stomach. 

When the initiation day came I experimented with water soluble glucose to prevent any lows but that my sugar levels were already high and after two days of highs and empty stomach I was heavily sick, drinking ORS solutions, there was blood all over my toilet from bleeding in stomach and my left kidney was about to burst. 

I somehow recovered from everything and as I am writing this post I am on my 38th Day of Shambhavi Mandala. It was great and I am in love with Yoga although my health is little down these days and my life is falling apart but I am happy and grateful for everything I have recieved. 

Me with Shiva, Day 37 of Shambhavi 

I was initiated on 22 February, 2026 🕉️🌺✨
