Svaroopa Vidya Ashram’s Podcast

Sound Bite: In the Pause

The sage says:

Tadah drastuh svaroope vastanam — Yoga Sutras 1.3

In the moment your mind becomes still, you abide in svaroopa, your own Divine Essence.

Here you are, revealed in the space between your thoughts. This means your thoughts are usually hiding you from yourself. This is why all the yoga practices are for your mind, to quiet your mind, so you discover who you are. The you that is svaroopa, your own Divine Essence, aka Shiva. In the pause. — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Sound Bite: Getting Enlightened

Getting enlightened is a little like watching the sunrise.  It’s amazing how long it takes, from the time the sky starts getting lighter, until the sun is above the horizon line. It’s about forty minutes of gradual lightening, and then the sun comes up quick, in only two minutes.  Getting enlightened works the same way.  It takes longer to get ready than to actually light up.   — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Sound Bite: Shedding Baggage

Your soul is great and Divine, even if it’s carrying some baggage.  You know how when you’re wearing a heavy backpack, or carrying a suitcase or two, it can throw you off-center? So, you might be trying to live your life while balancing all the baggage, meaning you’re living off-center.  The good news is that you’re shedding the baggage with every yoga practice, with every meditation, with every mantra repetition, with every pose and yogic breath, with every chant.  And even listening to these teachings, you’re shedding baggage and getting more and more centered. More and more based in your own Divine Essence. — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Sound Bite: Freedom from Desire

Here’s the secret that nobody wants to know about desire. The more you fulfill your desires, the more desires you will have. When you don’t fulfill a desire, it comes back. You don’t fulfill it; it comes back again. When you don’t fulfill it again, it takes longer for it to come back. And you don’t fulfil it, it takes even longer for the desire to arise and it is... — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

However, there is a danger in the relationship with a Siddha. In this yoga of relationship, you can get so wonderfully overwhelmed with the Guru’s light that you forget to look for your own.

Teachings Article: Time & Timelessness

Infinite Beingness is being finite by being you.  Like an iceberg in the ocean, you have a clear and distinct sense of individuality, yet you are made of the same substance you are melting into. Iceberg and sea are like time and timelessness interwoven together. I found timelessness by listening to the clocks ticking in my elementary classrooms. I stopped hearing the teacher as I listened to the silence between the ticks. Looking back, I think I was meditating…

Sound Bite: To Get Enlightened

To get enlightened you have to cooperate with the process.  So you may have to revamp your diet.

In the Upanishads there is a question, “What do human beings want?” The answer is that we want happiness. Everything we do, we do for the sake of happiness.

Sound Bite: Yogic Bliss

There are two ways to be experiencing yogic bliss: from the outside — looking inward, or from the inside — looking outward. When you do some spinal release poses, or Ujjayi Pranayama, mantra, chanting, any of the practices we do, when you’ve gotten lost in the world again outside yourself, you do these practices and now, you’re looking inward. Any of these practices settle you inward. And the deeper you go, the more bliss you experience. And then deeper, beyond your senses, beyond your mind, beyond your idea of who you are. All the way in, to your own Self. Oh, Shiva. — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Sound Bite: Who You Really Are

One of the glorious things I love about Baba’s gift to us is when I see it blossoming in you. Of course it’s Shaktipat that makes it happen. That’s Baba’s gift. But you are the one who’s blossoming, and I get to watch as you become more you. As you find who you really are, you bring your light and your Essence into your life and into the world. You glow in the dark, and you can feel it. — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Teachings Article: Metamorphosis

Spirituality changes your body as well as your mind and heart. The changes blossom forth as your spiritual essence fills you from the inside. This is not merely a mood change. Your body changes. A body that runs on anxiety is different than a body running on bliss. Your nervous system and hormones operate differently when you stand down from red alert. Research has proven that, when you are happy, your digestion and elimination work better. What do you suppose happens when you’re in bliss? Your lungs and heart, your immune system and even the composition of your blood are changed. Your biological age markers …

Teachings Article: Mystical Upgrade

When I met my Baba, I hadn’t been following the rules. As a teen in the 60’s, I took rebellion seriously. Fortunately, tantra is for everyone. Even if your lifestyle isn’t yogic and your karma is messy, the Satguru will give you Shaktipat initiation. External perfection is not a prerequisite because tantrics recognize imperfection as another form of the Divine. Besides, once you’ve been awakened to your own Divine Essence, you want to live your life in attunement. Lifestyle changes…

But if you’re not putting your time and effort into these teachings and practices, what are you putting your time and effort into?

You need a body to be here in this world. This means your body is important. Your body’s condition affects your experience of life. You know this from having the flu. Not able to do anything, you can’t even think. It works the other way around. Your body experiences your thoughts as real events. You can think yourself into a panic. You can think yourself into exhaustion. Does this mean you can think yourself into bliss? And that you can heal your body by thinking different thoughts…

Your life lessons are presented over, and over, and over again until you get it. Once you learn the lesson you don’t need to repeat it.

Your mind is made of cosmic Consciousness but mixed with your individual prana. Which means your mind accesses only a limited part of Consciousness, only as much as your prana allows.  And that means when you’re low on prana, your mind is dying on the vine.  So, your mind brings up all the threatening things that could happen, or have happened, giving you thoughts that match...  —  Gurudevi  Nirmalananda

It is your soul, purusha, that reincarnates from one lifetime to the next.  Shaktipat gives you freedom from the cycle of lifetimes, freedom from the limitation of feeling separate from others, freedom from the feeling of being separate from God.  For God is being you, and me, and everyone and everything.  When you look all the way inward, you find... —  Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Something wonderful happens when you simply sit. No phone, no music, nothing to read, to say or to do. Gradually settling into easy motionlessness, your body becomes still. Then your mind becomes still… Next, most people fall asleep or drift in a dreamy sleep-like state.  But on the way inward, you can take the other fork in the road. Instead of settling into unconsciousness, you can delve into the bliss of Consciousness within. This is yoga’s promise, that when your…

Sound Bite: Self Arising

Something keeps your breath moving and your heart beating, even when you’re asleep. Oh, Shiva. The whole point of yoga is to know who and what this is, that makes your body be a living body - that makes the screen of your mind be so... — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Sound Bite: Trapped in Your Opinions

When you are based in your own Self, you see all the different things, all the different people like different blossoms on the one shrub. For there is only One, being all. And when you don’t see the One hidden in Her divine disguise, as the person sitting next to you, as the driver of the car turning into your lane, as the neighbor walking their dog... —  Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Sound Bite: Get Familiar with Bliss

If you know that doing some yoga or repeating mantra for five minutes will make you happy, and it will, sometimes you simply won’t do it.  It’s like you prefer being unhappy to being happy.  Well, maybe it’s familiar. And I’d like to rescue you…  —  Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Sound Bite: Getting Enlightened

The wonderful thing about this yogic path is that you can stay in your home with your beloveds doing what you’ve already chosen to do and get enlightened while you’re there.  Except it’s harder in some ways because you have your usual dance patterns, the way you interact with everyone in your life. And they want you to keep being the same old... —  Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Sound Bite: A New Way of Being

This is the point of meditation, that your Kundalini will climb your spine and merge into your sahasrara.  That you will be jivanmukta, enlightened while alive.  And you will be engaged with the world — fulfilling your dharma, completing your karmas, giving from the…  —  Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Teachings Article: Illusion & Delusion

Maayaa is illusion. Moha is delusion. A magician doing card tricks is a master of illusion. To believe their illusions are real is delusion. Energy manifests as matter. This means matter isn’t really solid. You could call it an illusion. Some meditative traditions base their teachings on this principle.  Kashmiri Shaivism says the illusion is real. You are living in a movie set. But there is nowhere else to go. This is Shiva’s movie set. The storyline is compelling because…

Sound Bite: Spiritual Development

Eventually, your most valued pleasures become stale. And you realize that you want something the world cannot offer. Your focus turns to spiritual development. This is called sannyasa. It means you’re cultivating freedom from desire, freedom from need, greed and fear. As my Baba described, instead of living in contraction, the other possibility... — Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Sound Bite: Look Deeper

Soul is not Self.  When you experience the soul level of your being, it is profound.  It is meaningful.  It is deep and holy.  You are deep and holy.  Yet, there is more.  Soul is like the sunlight shining through a window.  Your soul is a window through which you can see...  —  Gurudevi Nirmalananda
