One of the greatest spiritual classics ever recorded, the Yoga Vasistha written by Sage Valmiki, is the detailed conversation between Sri Rama and his Spiritual teacher Vasistha Maharshi., It is in the form of replies given by Vasistha to Sri Rama's queries regarding philosophical problems of life and death, and human suffering, and treats the essentials of Advaita Vedanta. The book goes into great detail surrounding the subtle intricacies of the mind, unraveling the multitude of layers to our very existence along the way. Much of the text is told through parable stories, which hold many hidden depths within them. The ongoing theme throughout the book revolves around the notion of worldly miseries being caused by our own illusion of the world, and how whatever we perceive on the outside is merely a reflection of how we feel inside. Moving beyond these temporary illusions is the path to true enlightenment and Vasistha Maharshi goes into great depth as to how such a journ...

If you want to become one of those people who are rich and famous then go for it, it’s not so difficult. Whether you are a hero, heroine, you will find once you are in the field which you are finding very great - it is just ok. If your calling is very strong then go for it, it is not difficult. You know, our body is constantly emitting energy, vibrations. You are emitting energy all the time. And when you know your vibrations is what makes things happen in the world, you will know that you are in control. So when you are thinking that things are going to be negative then that is what seed you are putting in the universe, and that is going to happen. So with your positive thinking, positive ideas, positive sankalpa… It is said, that let positive vibrations come out of you. Negative thoughts arise in you, yet you tell, everything is positive. And how does that happen? Not by just thinking, but by relaxing. Cutting a thought with another thought is only superficial but cutting...

You know there is a Big Mind and a small mind. Sometimes the Big Mind wins over the small mind and sometimes it is the other way around. Then the small mind wins over, it is misery and when the Big Mind wins, it is joy. Small mind promises joy and leaves your hand empty. Big Mind may bring resistance in the beginning but fills you with joy. The word Guru means great. Jaya means victory. Deva means one who is fun-loving, playful, light. One who is playful is often not dignified and when one is dignified, he is often not playful. Jai Guru Dev is victory to the Big Mind in you that is both dignified and playful. That is what Jai Guru Dev means: “Victory to the Greatness in you.” You do not say victory or hail to the Master as he has won over already. You say victory to your own Self, your own Mind, which is being veiled by the small mind. ACTION-INACTION The wise is the one who sees action in inaction and inaction in action. When you observe your heart beat, your breathing, wh...

One who is not amazed by the magnificence of this Creation, his eyes are not yet opened. Once your eyes are open, they close and this is called meditation. Tell me, what in this Creation? Is not a mystery? Birth is a mystery; death is a mystery. If both birth and death are mysterious, then life is certainly a greater mystery. Isn't it? Being completely immersed in the mystery of Life and this Creation is Samadhi. Your knowing or believing doesn't really matter to what Is. This Creation is an unfathomable secret, and its mysteries only deepen. Getting steeped in mystery is Devotion. The "Scene" is a mystery; the "Seer" is a mystery. Deepening the mystery of Creation is science. Deepening the mystery of the Self is spirituality. They are the two sides of the same coin. If neither Science nor Spirituality can create wonder and devotion in you, then you are in deep slumber. The Divine can only be found in deep rest (Meditation). Life is a combination...

There are three types of Silence. The first is the silence where there is no talking. This is very beneficial for people just to be aware of what they are saying and how much energy they spend talking. The second is the silence of stillness. This is the silence inside us that is detached from the noise in the world. Silence is disinterestedness in activity, an inward journey of the mind. This inner stillness is very important if we want to understand and grow spiritually. Inner silence frees us from the noise of the world. And finally, there is the silence of Oneness - Oneness with the entire universe. Oneness is the goal of silent practice. Whatever knowledge we study and understand with our intellect is limited. The knowledge that we gain by effort is immanent. The knowledge which is gained through effortlessness, through silence and intuition is transcendental. Now one might think why bother meditating when sleep is good enough to bring silence? Remember, when you are sl...

Objects will gain value and lose value, but space will never lose value. When you buy a cup, what do you give the value for? Do you give money for the space inside, or for the outer material? Have you ever thought about it? If you have a lump of clay in your hand, is there any value for it? But when the lump of clay is made into a cup, you give value for the space. And that value will never diminish. The purpose of the space is always served. Whether it is a stainless steel glass, stainless steel cup, or glass, or china clay, or silver cup, the space inside the cup is what really serves, isn’t it? That is what really matters. Space can never lose its value. So what is precious? Whatever you think is very precious is very costly, very expensive. The most expensive things are least used! They’re least useful. How do you put value on something – by its utility, or by its rareness of availability? If something is available in plenty, you don’t value it more. Why do you value go...

Prayer is experiencing the presence of God. “Does God come first or prayer?” somebody asked. “Let me know God, then I’ll pray. To whom should I pray? Unless I know to whom I am praying, how can I pray?” No, no, no, that is not it. You pray first. Wherever you pray, there is God. You don’t have to go to churches or to temple or to a mosque someplace. Wherever you pray, there is God. Atheists say this, “Let me know God and then I’ll pray.” It’s like saying, “First I’ll learn to swim and then get into the water.” No. The whole mathematics here are very different. Pray comes first. You pray. Pray is being grateful for all that has been bestowed on you. You are being bestowed with eyes, ears, nose, the whole world—feel grateful for all that. Feel grateful for all that you have now. That is prayer. Another question is, “Why should I pray?” That is not at all a question, “Why should one pray?” No. If one has prayed, then one knows how futile this question is. It’s like asking why should you l...
