Dance of eunuchs

Amazing !
I was watching a video on the what’s app college group. Someone had placed a video in which the “guru” told everyone to smile because they are alive. Being alive is the most precious thing! In contrast Jesus saw everyone as “dead”. He said let the “dead bury the dead” Yogananda explained it as being …

Real yoga basics
The real basics can only be learnt from a yogi. What is written in texts and scriptures does not cover any of the basic experiences They jumped a little hastily to super conscience experiences. These experiences are so artfully written that ANYONE can claim they have it, or misguide themselves into believing they have it …

Biography
Most biographies are very poorly written. Why ? Because the people who write it are clueless about the inner hardship and turmoils of the subject I recently read the biography of yogi Harnath by Makrand Dave. His book could not focus on the life of Harnath but was more focused on him, his own views …

Swarodaya- what is it?
