When my wife and I were at Swami Rama's ashram in the Poconos, we gave shaktipat just casually to someone in their dining room--he did it by throwing his mediation blanket to the person. The person immediately went to the floor and "locked" into meditation posture. The people there picked him up and took him to a room they had just for such occurences (lights dim, temp. controlled). He stayed that way for two days in samadhi. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
