Bala

TURIYA – BALA

Bala Tripurasundari or Bala for short, is a Hindu child Goddess. In Sanskrit, Bala has multiple meanings: “young”, “power”, “strength of mind” or “like a child”.

In Hinduism it is a term often associated with youth and Krishna, the God of children. In yoga we speak of the balasana posture or child’s posture.

The “pancha bala” represent the 5 forces that guide us to enlightenment.

In Buddhist and yogic texts, pancha bala are:

Saddha bala – faith or conviction –

Viriya bala – energy or effort –

Sati bala – mindfulness or attention –

Samadhi bala – the focus –

Panna bala – wisdom – 

Some of the balas may dominate, but the balance between the balas is necessary for a stable and harmonious life. 

BALA by TURIYA is a synergy of essential oils indicated in situations where we need to free ourselves from the mirage, from the perception of what we live, in short from the illusions that the mind has built. Its powerful and intriguing scent supports awareness and helps to access to the subconscious to reveal our deepest truth.

If we succeed in unmasking the existing illusory forms, then a vibratory readjustment can take place and certain habits of the mind and destructive emotions vanish. It is not always easy to see that we have self-hypnotized ourselves with many programs, beliefs, patterns and principles and that our illusions often cause blockages and limits to our possibilities.

BALA was created to become aware of our illusions and to transform them:

• Hidden and inner fears: These unacknowledged fears are often our greatest vampires; they compromise our life force and weaken us at all levels of existence.
• Frustrations: Inner frustrations often come from the fact that we have not expressed ourselves clearly and then we are at odds with the outside world. We say YES and we think NO. How long have we been in this state? The problem is that we have been stuck in inner conflicts that generate sadness, anger, and fears, diminishing our life force.
• Distorted visions: Contemporary discourses of all kinds have an enormous hypnotic power over the collective consciousness and obviously create an enormous number of illusions at all levels of beliefs and habits. Sometimes, they even create real walls that block the evolution of life. These illusions disturb the coherence between the body and the mind, between the chakras and the subtle bodies.

BALA facilitates the purification of the spirit and the opening on new horizons. It accompanies us ideally during the rites of initiation, helps us to find the innocence of spirit and to connect thus with the soul of the child to awaken our interior power.

BALA – A synergy for the times

“Just as ripples radiate from where a stone is dropped into a pool of water, our unconscious thoughts, feelings, emotions and beliefs create “disturbances” in the universe and become the blueprints for our lives.” Gregg Braden

With BALA, clarity, dynamism and freshness penetrate our body, mind, and hover in the rooms we live in. We gain discernment, insight and develop the ability to step back and see things from different angles.

The fresh notes of citrus (lime, grapefruit), stimulating conifers (cembra pine, Scots pine, Siberian pine) combined with aromatherapy treasures such as palo santo, hinoki, gingerlily, magnolia, shiso, 3-lobed sage and rose give the blend a variety of unique effects.

Invigorating, activating, joyful and purifying, BALA opens the mind and helps to structure thoughts.

Collective energy can increase susceptibility, reinforce fears and stress, cause a weakening of mental clarity and concentration; as a result, we become bitter without even realizing it, we lose lightness and joy of life. The following ritual awakens our mental alertness and allows us to remain objective and serene, regardless of external circumstances. Do it for at least 11 consecutive days and then continue if you feel the need.

Maintain your clarity and lucidity, stay relaxed and resist external pressure:

When you are under pressure, under stress, when you have the feeling of losing control over your emotions, when you tend to justify yourself, to argue, when you have lost your inner peace, do at least 3 times a day the following ritual:

• Put a few drops of BALA in the palms of your hands, place them in front of your face, inhale deeply, then place your hands in front of the solar plexus forming a sphere and remain for a moment motionless while breathing regularly.

• Finally, remain two minutes in silence, always visualizing that you are in a sacred temple; tell yourself that you can visit the past whenever you want, but that the past is not the present moment.

You are suspicious, you cultivate secrets, mysteries. You do not reveal who you are for fear of being hurt. You have a feeling of isolation, of loneliness, you no longer perceive the link between beings and circumstances.

It pacifies the body and mind and allows you to reconnect to yourself, to your essence, to your truth. SO HAM integrates “I am who I am in all my complexity, I honor what has built me…”
