    The Kite and the Sky

    As soon as I started studying Physics, I fell in love with it. Study of Physics has always given rise to impersonality and humility in my mind. I would not like to study a science subject that could not be related to deeper harmony and the concept of unity in diversity. So, studying Physics was verily a spiritual sādhanā for me.

    Collective Sādhanā – Its Spiritual Dimension

    While interactional sadhana strengthens, deepens and enhances your individual pursuit, both these are verily enriched and empowered by taking up collective sadhana. Only when there is a collective programme, all of you will come together and join.

    The Parting Instructions

    Expectations must become extinct. Liberation is vāsanā-tānavam—extinction of desires. Desires will not fall the way you want, but will fall. Recognize the place for extinction of desires, and allow them to settle.

    Sādhana in Gurusannidhi

    Through the Teacher’s responses to various situations, we get a touch of his vision – his love and his dispassion.

    Mind can also be said to be something alien to the Soul, which veils the latter in a mysterious manner. It is all a question of which description suits your taste and becomes comprehensible for you

    The truth about Samādhi

    To think that the practice of samādhi is the finale in spiritual life is wrong. The man of perfection is not one who is permanently immersed in samādhi. Even Samādhi is a state or avastha.

    The Right Focus

    Realizing the Atma

    The existence of the Atma is always absolute. Its manner of expression includes that which you call ‘the world’. This is the truth.
