YOU ARE TOTALLY FREE.....

Posted by Dr.Darshan Singh on February 8, 2010 at 4:30pm

I know that you are consciousness itself, not the conscious being. Consciousness is not a quality attached to you, you are consciousness. You are totally free.

So proceed from anywhere. Either be more free or be more conscious, and the other will result automatically. Be more free, and you will be more conscious. You cannot be more free unless you are more conscious.

Be more conscious and you will be more free. You cannot be otherwise, because consciousness creates freedom. And when you are a

Practice of Meditation in Daily Life.

Every cell in the body has the capacity to hold infinity. While a worm also eats and sleeps and wakes and performs its daily activities, there is no point in living like that. We must tap the full potential that nature has bestowed on us, the potential to hold infinity in every cell of the body. For that we must practise meditation regularly. It only takes few minutes every day. And once imbibed into the daily routine, meditation is no more a burden or a chore.

Meditation is like a seed. The bet

Sanatana-Dharma

Posted by Kati Kalipriya Cato on January 16, 2010 at 12:31pm

Sanatana-Dharma: Its Real MeaningBy Stephen KnappWhen it comes to understanding the meaning of Sanatana-dharma, we have to be aware of its Sanskrit definition. The root of the word dharma comes from dhri, which means to uphold or maintain. The Sanskrit says dharayati iti dharmaha, which translates as dharma is that which upholds. However, not only what is supported is dharma, but that which does the supporting is also dharma, dhriyate iti dharmaha. So dharma consists of both the force that susta

Discovering The Ego - New Year's Message by Swami Venkateshananda

Posted by Sukadev Bretz on January 1, 2010 at 10:33am

Anything that is done in accordance with the dictates of the mind is a trap. So even the so-called Yogic or spiritual practices undertaken through the incentive of the mind can at best be a golden trap, a prison. The intelligence within has to realise this. It is capable of this, though it cannot get out of it. ‘I’ cannot liberate itself, but it can see the defect in all these practices, the danger in this trap. If you are doing Karma-yoga it is glorified social service—which is very good as far

Purposefully Direct the Power Potential Within - New Year's Message by Swami Chidananda

Worshipful homage to the supreme, eternal, infinite Cosmic Spirit Divine. Worshipful homage to the supreme Cosmic Power of the Divine which is both a transcendental divine force and the first manifestation of the Unmanifest. Therefore, it is different from the Unmanifest, but at the same time integrally one with the Unmanifest. Because the supreme, ultimate, transcendental Reality is one alone and non-dual, ekameva’ dvitiyam, there cannot be any question of manifestation being apart from It, bec

The New Year is approaching, time passes. The passage which is known as temporal is also the process of the evolution of the universe. There is a progressive march of the constituent elements of things in the passage of the time process. When a particular specialised occasion arises in this progression of the time process, we call that particular event or occasion by a designation as a 'New Year Day', a 'birthday', a 'holiday', an 'occasion of celebration' and some such nomenclature.

What is music? Has it got any power to soothe the aching mind?

Posted by Teachings of Swami Sivananda on December 31, 2009 at 6:00pm

Music is a system of harmonious, melodious and rhythmic sounds capable of producinginner peace and an inexpressible thrill of joy. Music is one of the sciences which deal with Nada(Sabda) which is the first vibration of Brahman represented by the Pranava - Om. All the SaptaSvaras - Sa, Ri, Ga, Ma, Pa, Dha, Ni - which evolved themselves later into the various vocalsounds first originated out of this fundamental Om, symbolic of Brahman. Music is one of thefine arts or Lalita Kalas. Yes. It has got

Does the soul take a new body in one year? Does it take ten years? How long does one live upon the subtler planes before reappearing on the earth plane?

Posted by Teachings of Swami Sivananda on December 30, 2009 at 6:00pm

There is no definite period of time in this matter. In main, two factors decide this issue,viz., the nature of the individual Karma and the last impression before death. It may vary fromhundreds of years to a few months even. Those that work out some of their Karmas in otherplanes in subtler regions take a considerable time before entering a fresh body. The interval isvery long, for a year of the earth period passes off as a single day on the celestial plane. There isan instance cited where, see

Politics has become the God of the day and is more so in India. Religion has come to be regarded as a superfluous thing. How then is it possible to make everyone believe in God and religion?

It is wrong to regard that politics has got some of those very people had fashioned thoseprecedence over religion. In personal life, the majority of mankind does believe in God; and inIndia, there is undercurrent of religion throughout the land. Politics is only a surface activitythrust upon most people due to socio-economic forces.When one gets knocks and blows, when he gets disgusted with the sensual objects onaccount of their impermanency, when he gets experience and discrimination and dispas

To induce Vairagya in thepassionate people, I place such a negative mental picture of women. Really, women aremanifestations of Sakti. Yes, all is holy. All is sacred. All is beautiful.
