Karma – Shaivism way
Everyone has their own definition. And they use their own logic and add prepositions etc According to Babaji and Yogananda, true karma or satkarma ( pure or good karma ) is ONLY THE KARMA THAT LEADS TO SELF REALISATION!

Vegetarian or Non veg
A common debate. Recently someone sent me a video by SadGuru, about his take on Veg versus non veg. For a Yogi, this is no debate. Anything that increases your attachment to a body is not good for meditation Now of course there is no scientific study out there. But a yogi, it does not …

Why science and religion don’t talk
Science is based on external. Evaluation from analysis of senses. True religion is within where senses are absent! And then there are all the stupid,idiotic religions leaders – those pseudo religious people, religious leaders who try to convince you about something within based on external science! There is something behind this world of senses, this …

Polarity of Chakras
I have alluded this to a few times in my past blogs. Every chakra except Sahastrar has a negative downward pole, a consciousness that is directed towards the world.  This is referred to in the Bhagvad Gita as the “Dakshinayana” or lower six months of the calendar. If a person leaves the body while the chakras …

Meditation on Chakras
I did not get a chance to write yesterdays blogs. I was orginally planning to write about sex, meditation and yoga. Is it wrong? Is it right? Is it a hindrance? Is it somewhere in between? There are some unwritten secrets about shakti and sex which Gurudev talked about and was also written by Shankaracharya (one …

General thoughts
Spiritual Books can be writte in 4 ways 1) Pure fantasy or fiction 2) Books which are a compilation of information (I hate to use the word knowledge because true knowledge of God is only when one has experiened him) from a variety of books. Often times authors dont give credit to their source except …

Meditation – some more pearls
Todays meditation was not as deep as yesterday. However, it was more satisfying. This may come as a surprise but allow me to explain Say you are climbing a 100 steps. If you climb all the way to the top stay there for a few second and come right back versus you climb 85 steps …

Guidelines for Yoga / Rules of Yoga
I changed the name from rules to guidelines. The reason for calling it rules, is because in my opinion, doing yoga is like going into battle where one is constantly battling ones sanskaras. In other words, in order to win this battle, certain rules must be followed. If one reads any scriptures regarding Yoga and …

Fishbowl
After 2 days of struggle, I was finally able to go back to my true consciousness. When certain karmas are about to come into play, or if one does something that is not appropriate, the first thing that happens is the consciousness gets clouded and one is no longer able to go that deep. Yes, …

Pearls
I was asked, do you go to Church. My answer was no, the Church comes to me. The real church is where there is love for God. What is purity or a pure person? A person who only has love and desires only for God, is pure. Everyone else is impure. Love demands nothing in …

It is only the soul that can communicate with God directly  not the thoughts… Thoughts are disorganized and thoughts have a mental impression or fantasy about how God is or maybe  and we take our thoughts to be very accurate.  and that is where all religions and sects in Christianity fight They have a certain logical …

February 8, 2006
Entry for February 08, 2006 A doll made out of salt took a dip in the Ocean! Ego is like the salt doll. Once immersed in the ocean of bliss (GOD) it no longer exists. It is that easy. Just immerse yourself in God. You loose yourself in God. That is why Yogananda said, in …
