M ahashivratri has always been a grand celebration for us at the


Isha Yoga Center, but the upcoming one on 24 February, with the
consecration of the hundred and twelve feet tall face of Adiyogi, is going
to stand out, literally. With just about five weeks to go until the event, his
glorious face is already beginning to draw attention. Naturally, the
question arises why we are creating such a large face of Adiyogi, and if it
is just for aesthetics. If you look at the image of Adiyogi, definitely there
is a geometric aesthetic to it. There is no aesthetic appeal without
geometric perfection in anything, for that matter. The face of Adiyogi
is not just for aesthetics it has a geometric significance. Next to
Adiyogi, there will be the Yogeshwar Linga, which we are going to
consecrate in the days leading up to Mahashivratri. Through the presence
of the linga, Adiyogi will become more powerful by the day. Since he has
the appropriate geometric features, he will gather the best of this energy.
If you maintain a geometrically correct posture, you too can gather the
best. This is what yoga is about.

This face of Adiyogi will be an iconic


presence to orient the world towards
their liberation. Adiyogi is a reminder

nor joy is made in heaven, but within you. If you approach it with the
right level of understanding, that is called science. If you develop tools to
deal with it, that is called technology. We call this Inner Engineering.
Adiyogis magnificent face is going to represent this science and
technology for inner wellbeing.

We are also going to bring out a book on Adiyogi, which describes the
science that he offered and its significance. We want to make sure that in
the next ten to fifteen years time, the entire world will move from
looking up to looking inward for their wellbeing. Inward is the only place
where you can fix your wellbeing. I invite all of you to be a part of this, in
whatever capacity you can. We are equipped like never before in the
history of humanity to reach out to a large part of the population, and
teach them how to turn inward and handle their wellbeing from within,
rather than depending on the outside for support. From 20 to 23
February, we will consecrate the Yogeshwar Linga, and on Mahashivratri
the Adiyogi face. We will energize the linga in such a way that what was
just a lump of material will reverberate immensely, in a matter of three
to four days. We will set up processes for you to develop the necessary
sensitivity to clearly experience this. You will distinctly see how a
consecrated form can change the whole atmosphere around it. Based on
this possibility, all deities in this culture were made at one time.

There are thirty-three million gods and


goddesses in India, because we

This is a once-in-a- making. We created a form with
lifetime opportunity geometric perfection, energized it in a
certain way, and devised methods to
not just in terms of access it. The formless energy that we
refer to as Shiva can manifest itself in
experiencing the many ways. This reflects in the many
different forms in which Shiva is

also in terms of Vaideeshwara, a doctor; Dakshinamurti,
a teacher; or Bhairava, a remover of
making it happen. fear. These are all manifestations of the
same energy. In this culture,
consecrations are done to serve specific
requirements. Adiyogi is here to liberate
you from disease, discomfort, and
poverty above all, from the very process of life and death. We will
consecrate Adiyogi as Yogeshwar, a perfect yogi. Yogeshwar is essentially
about liberation. That is why we put him a little outside the Isha Yoga
Center. He will have the necessary space and freedom to function
whichever way he wants. The form of Adiyogi will leave an imprint on
your consciousness. No matter where you go, his face will stick with you
in such a way that you will turn inward. This is about transformation
beyond thought and emotion.

This consecration will be very different from almost anything we have


done before. Only the Dhyanalinga consecration was similar in nature,
except that it was far more complex. This consecration will be much
simpler, but both Dhyanalinga and Yogeshwar are focused towards
liberation. Generally, most human beings, though they seek liberation,
are tending to get entangled with something or the other. Their
psychological state and social conditioning are such that they think only
in binding themselves will they be safe. We want to change this in the
world. It is not by bondage that you are safe. Only when you are free are
you safe. But for a fearful mind, freedom may look scary, because you do
not know what to hold on to. If you are not balanced, you need to hold on
to something. If you are in perfect balance, you do not feel like holding
on to anything. Those who are agile are not holding the walls as they
walk only the infirm do. We want to create a world that is full of life
that is agile, balanced, and stable. Once there is no need in you to hold on
to something and build bondage, your natural aspiration will be
liberation.

We are preparing for the future of the world. As many old structures that
we have thrived on till now will collapse in the coming decades, the
longing for liberation will rise. Adiyogi will be a very important tool for
those who are striving to liberate themselves. Adiyogi is a presence that
people cannot miss the greatest face on the planet. Greatest not in
comparison to anything else but because of the possibility that it opens
up. This is a fantastic gateway for those who are seeking liberation.
Liberation from anything that binds you this will be the nature of the
linga. Adiyogis iconic presence will inspire millions of people across the
planet. We want to make the hundred and twelve ways in which you can
reach your ultimate nature available to the entire humanity. We will
deliver them in the simplest possible way, in todays terms, using
modern technology. If we successfully pull it off, we will have a better
world. During the consecration, you will see how a physical object will
become a living force.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity not just in terms of


experiencing the consecration but also in terms of making it happen. I
want all of you to be a part of it.

Love & Grace,
