Your talks have changed my life. Thank you.

I like that saying of swami vivekananda,that there is a power in this universe which thinks itself as feminine and mother of the universe....its so real for me...when i am really in conflict n scared,..i cry out to her for help...and she as mother not always immediately answers,.if she knows i can do it myself she ignores,,😊😊 Thus she helped me grow strong n surrender more.

How fluently and clearly swamiji explains. I wish once I will be able to meet him and listen to him in person. By listening to him almost all doubts that arise get cleared very naturally

Always an honor to be in the presence of such Light. Thank you Hanuman

Pranam, Swami 🙏 This talk has helped immensely 🤗🌺🙏

Nidhi’s question and you answer has resonated so deeply with me. I have heard your answer at least 6 times and each time I take away something special. Deepest Pranams to you Swamiji.

Swamiji, thank you for all your talks. It really helps to connect with truth 🙏
-
Thank you. Love your clarity in your answers. So easy and enjoyable to digest. Very grateful. 🙏❤️

Another jewel from Swamiji.

This one included many ah~has, including the new description of counting the 10th person. Swami's suggestion of connecting to mother really touched me. In terms of methods, there is always immersion in nature, especially water. It doesn't have to be anthropomorphic. There is so much mother in nature.

For Advaitha Siddhi purification of Mind through Sadhana is essential...chitta Suddhi

Pranam Maharaj 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Buddha Vipassana, Ashtavakra Samhita, Jiddu Kriahnamurti, Vvekachdamani, Avadutta Gita, Aparoukshanubuthi, Panchadasi flowed naturally.But yes, Advaita Vedanta is par excellence. All blended very well. In Panchadasi, I understood Ishvara and hence Bhakti Yoga. Pranam Swamiji.
