It\u2019s a very important concept, but the problem is no one precisely knows what is meant by the \u2018Now\u2019\u2026 and how to live it.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Now; is stopping all movement because \u2018Now\u2019 is time, and time is movement. And stopping Time, stopping movement, is to be in the \u2018Now\u2019. That\u2019s how \u201cNow\u201d can be understood precisely.<\/p>\n<p>There is tremendous amount of benefit if you are able to stop the time, stop the movement. Then you are in the \u2018Now\u2019, and once you are in the \u2018Now\u2019 you can deal with all of the problems: the problems of the body, the problems of the mind, the problems of relationship, the problem of money.<\/p>\n<p>All of these can be handled.<\/p>\n<p>I have been contemplating on this for some time, and now I have crystallized my ideas, and I have come up with a new word, or I have coined this word: \u2018Nowization\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Nowizing\u2019 the mind, \u2018nowizing\u2019 the body, and \u2018nowizing\u2019 relationship. Precisely, and simply put, it means to stay in the \u2018Now\u2019 as far as the mind is concerned, as far as the body is concerned, and as far as relationships are concerned.<\/p>\n<p>How can you stay in the \u2018Now\u2019 as far as the mind is concerned? How can you stay in the \u2018Now\u2019 because the \u2018Now\u2019 eludes you?<\/p>\n<p>The \u2018Now\u2019 is simply not the present as we understand the present to be. Presently what are you doing? \u2018I am working for a company\u2019. That is not the present. \u2018Now\u2019 brings in the real present.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>The real present is not subjected to time. It is an \u2018Eternal Present\u2019. That present is beyond the mind. That\u2019s why you have to stop the mind.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Now, how do you do that?<\/p>\n<p>You simply do it through a number of techniques. The Yogis have their own techniques, the Siddhas have their own techniques, and I have come up with my own techniques. So I want to put together all of them in one place so that people will understand what it really means to be in the \u2018Now\u2019 as far as the mind is concerned, and then how you can take advantage of being in the \u2018Now\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m going to give you a mantra to help the mind to stay in the \u2018Now\u2019 and that\u2019s very important. The mantra to stop the mind from the Yogic tradition comes from Patanjali. It is my application of Patanjali to the study of \u2018Now\u2019 as far as the mind is concerned.<\/p>\n<p>The sound: <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>CHIT VRIT<\/strong><\/span> can stop the mind.<\/p>\n<p>Patanjali uses it in his first technique of stopping the mind:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>&#8216;Yogas Chitta Vritti Nirodha&#8217;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Patanjali is a very conscious individual. Every syllable that he uses, he knows why he is using it and what it is going to do.<\/p>\n<p>So you can stop the mind, and be in the \u201cNow\u201d if you do this technique.<\/p>\n<p>I will have a few other techniques from the other traditions, from the Siddha Tradition, who want to stop the breath. And what happens to the mind, what states of consciousness will occur, will be dealt with.<\/p>\n<p>God bless.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Dr. Pillai<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>Join our\u00a0<span style=\"color: #2ea3f2;\">Timeline Jumping Program<\/span>\u00a0and learn the how to benefit from Time Technology to Change Your Destiny.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href='https:\/\/www.pillaicenter.com\/be-a-timeline-jumper.aspx' class='big-button bigblue'>Timeline Jumping Program\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Pillai elaborates on the popular New Age concept of the &#8220;Now&#8221; and shares a mantra that can help you get there and stay there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4050,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4047","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dr-pillai"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.8 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\r\n<title>Now-ize Yourself - Pillai Center Blog<\/title>\r\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The concept of Living in now is gaining traction every passing day.
