<p>Dhyanalinga is a powerful energy form at the Isha Yoga Center, that allows even those unaware of meditation to experience a state of meditativeness.<br /><br /></p>.<p>Question: You say the Dhyanalinga offers the possibility for each human being to experience life in its totality. Can you tell us how?<br /><br />Sadhguru: When you experience life through your sense perceptions, the experience of it is in a certain duality. You can call this duality as feminine and masculine or intuitive and logical aspects of oneself. These are the two dimensions in which you and the world around you exist.<br /><br />It is based on this duality that life is created. In the beginning, everything was primordial – no duality. Once creation happened, there was duality. To experience and limit you to this duality is why there are sense organs. You experience everything through your senses: seeing, smelling, tasting, hearing and touching. These sense organs manifest and enhance the sense of duality. The sense of light and dark, good and bad, pleasant and unpleasant is what makes everything appear more established. As you get more involved with sense perception, duality gets deeper.<br /><br />Without duality, there is no creation. But being trapped within duality is the problem. If one is limited to duality, one does not know the beyond. It becomes a great limitation. <br /><br />Duality is the source of all plea-sures in the world. If there were no opposites, there would be no pleasures. At the same time, duality is the source of all suffering in the world. It is only because of opposites that man suffers. Caught in this “pleasure and pain” experience, people do not become wise with life, they become wounded. They are not able to handle this duality, nor are they able to transcend it.<br /><br />The science of the Dhyanalinga is an establishment of the exuberance of the duality of life. But its purpose is to help a person go beyond this duality. This is not against sense perception, but seeing the limitation that it is, one needs to go beyond that. That which is beyond duality is referred to as pratibha, where you have a direct perception of the world the way it is. If we go beyond, then both dimensions – the logical and the intuitive – can be enjoyed and experienced. <br /><br />Courtesy : isha.sadhguru.org</p>
