Experiencing the Divine Play of Life

Swami Muktananda, was an elevated Siddha master (an ascetic who has achieved enlightenment), whose dynamic teachings I was exposed to when I was just 22 years old.

Swami Muktananda, was an elevated Siddha master (an ascetic who has achieved enlightenment), whose dynamic teachings I was exposed to when I was just 22 years old. At an ordinary bookshop in Mumbai I found his classic autobiography “The Play of Consciousness”. The result of just reading his words was such, that an incredible spiritual opening began in my being, the impact of which unfolds till this day.

In this video Swami Mukatananda extolls that “You divide your life into the waking and dream state, but it is all one state. It is ever new, neither true nor false. What was real yesterday, is unreal today, and what is real now will be unreal tomorrow.”. He goes on to say “When a wise being understands the way of the world, the sport and the play of destiny and the continuity of the waking and dream states and the light of the knowledge of Bhairava (the one who destroys fear), he becomes filled with the extraordinary mystery of the formless, and feels lighthearted with this simple awareness. Then he naturally takes delight in the game.”

Make this video a meditation. Take a good comfortable posture, put a good headphone on and then just hear the words, the sounds. No need to try and intellectually understand it, but just listen, to the play of sun and shadows. 

How to Break Your Negative Thinking

As a young man reading Tony Robbins, gave me an intellectual architecture, within which to set up my process of self discovery, experiment with different exercises and process some of the more esoteric happenings inside my being.

I read Tony Robbins for the first time in my college years. His book “Awaken The Giant Within”, gave me great insight into how to use my physiology and my emotions, to get the results that I was seeking on a personal and professional level. As a young man, it gave me an intellectual architecture, within which to set up my process of self discovery, experiment with different exercises and process some of the more esoteric happenings inside my being.

In this short 8 minute video Tony works with 4 women live on national TV, to move them to the kind of personal results they seek, even while they are surrounded by certain personal issues. The video is titled “How to Break Your Negative Thinking”. His basic premise is, if we want new results or outcomes, we need to create new actions; and our actions are often related to our emotional state. And this is where the use of physiology comes into play, to change certain negative emotional states. I love the framework and I hope you enjoy it to. Have a great Sunday.

How to Create a Beautiful Life

Bentinho’s words comes from a deep space, and one that has always vibrated deep down inside for me. In this video he speaks about how to create the life that you want. He articulates that everyone can contribute to the global transformation that is going on.

Bentinho Massaro is a young, dynamic and a very different teacher, from our traditional concepts of what a teacher should be. Currently we often find him smoking a cigar, while explaining some esoteric but practical teaching. But don’t get fooled by his external demeanour. His words come from a deep space, and one that has always vibrated deep down inside for me. Several years ago (I think maybe 8 or 10 years ago) as he was an upcoming teacher, I had made a small modest donation to his work, across the world (I think USD 25 or 50), since I thought his teachings should spread. Not many knew him yet, but he sent a personal message to thank, although he had no clue who I was. I am happy to see him take his teachings forward over the years.

In this video Bentinho speaks about how to create the life that you want. He articulates that everyone can contribute to the global transformation that is going on (the talk is in 2017). If you want to create a fantastic life and achieve your goals faster he says, you have to be creating and creative, ‘Don’t just say ‘Oh, something is missing from the world, I’ll just watch television, complain about it, and go back to eating pizza.’ Do something about it!’. According to him, if one stops creating and becomes passive, one drifts into the collective unconscious, which has a low frequency / vibration. He advises us to prioritise the things that truly inspire us and then go for them, no matter what other people say.

Chant For Your Heart | Chant for the World

Mantra repetition and chanting, centres the mind, gives you an inner pillar and reveals great inner insights.

Till I tried it, I did not know the power of chanting a sacred mantra again and again. From one point of view it seems repetitive, dull and boring. But from another point of view, and from my own inner experience of repeating a divine mantra over the years, I have found it unravels great inner bliss, deep understanding of the universe and produces the most divine “rasa” or juice within the body. Mantra repetition and chanting, centres the mind, gives you an inner pillar and reveals great inner insights.

Chanting Om Namah Shivaya – “I Bow to my Inner Self” (Video Length: 3 min 07 sec)

Either through a spiritual master, or through years of practice, the mantra becomes Chaitanya (or alive) in your body and being. And this Chaitanya mantra becomes your Inner Master and subtly guides you in your life, business, spiritual practices, music and anything you set your intention to. Use a good on ear headphone and listen to this ancient chant, in whichever time zone you are in.
