The illusion of separation whispers that you are alone—apart from nature, from others, from the divine within. This Baba Talk by Maetreyii Ma guides you to remember the truth: you are the breath of the cosmos, the pulse of love itself. Let these words draw you inward, where the divine within—your divine essence—waits in stillness,waiting for you to move beyond the illusion of separation to live in oneness. Rooted in the timeless wisdom of non duality, this message reveals that the illusion of separation and the divine within is not just a concept—it is the heart of this awakening.

Many religious and spiritual traditions consider renunciation of the world important.But is living in an ashram or temple really more spiritual?We examine the fact that true spirituality is not determined by physical location or external appearances, but rather by one's consciousness and how one lives. We will learn that the ‘world' (the material energy) is neutral, and the real challenge lies in one's consciousness and relationship with the world. True renunciation (tyāga) is not about physically giving up worldly activities and possessions but rather about performing actions without attachment to their fruits. The Bhagavad Gita illustrates that genuine spirituality involves seeing everything as connected to God and performing all actions as service to the Supreme Soul.If you would like to do a more in-depth course on the essential teachings of the Bhagavad-gītā, it is here: https://acharyadas.com/series/bhagavad-gita-chalisa/ The verses I quote were:In the minds of those who are too attached to sense enjoyment and material opulence, and who are bewildered by such things, the resolute determination of loving service to the Supreme Lord does not take place. - Bhagavad-gītā 2.44Not by merely abstaining from work can one achieve freedom from reaction, nor by renunciation alone can one attain perfection. - Bhagavad-gītā 3.4One who restrains the senses and organs of action but whose mind dwells on sense objects certainly deludes himself and is called a pretender. - Bhagavad-gītā 3.6Everything animate or inanimate that is within the universe is controlled and owned by the Lord. One should therefore accept only those things necessary for himself, which are set aside as his quota, and one should not accept other things, knowing well to whom they belong. - Śrī Īśopaniṣad mantra 1The Blessed Lord said: One who is unattached to the fruits of his work and who works as he is obligated is in the renounced order of life, and he is the true mystic: not he who lights no fire and performs no work. - Bhagavad-gītā 6.1What is called renunciation is the same as yoga, or linking oneself with the Supreme, for no one can become a yogi unless he renounces the desire for sense gratification. - Bhagavad-gītā 6.2“I am not a brāhmaṇa, I am not a kṣatriya, I am not a vaiśya or a śūdra. Nor am I a brahmacārī, a householder, a vānaprastha or a sannyāsī. I identify Myself only as the servant of the servant of the servant of the lotus feet of the Lord ….” - Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta Madhya-līlā 13.80For one who sees Me everywhere and sees everything in Me, I am never lost, nor is he ever lost to Me. - Bhagavad-gītā 6.30The Blessed Lord said, To give up the results of all activities is called renunciation [tyāga] by the wise. And that state is called the renounced order of life [sannyāsa] by great learned men. - Bhagavad-gītā 18.2It is indeed impossible for an embodied being to give up all activities. Therefore, it is said that he who renounces the fruits of action is one who has truly renounced. - Bhagavad-gītā 18.11The wise, engaged in loving devotional service, take refuge in the Lord, and free themselves from the cycle of birth and death by renouncing the fruits of action in the material world. In this way they can attain that state beyond all miseries. - Bhagavad-gītā 2.51Unless one is engaged in the loving devotional service of the Lord, mere renunciation of activities cannot make one happy. The sages, purified by works of devotion, achieve the Supreme without delay. - Bhagavad-gītā 5.6O son of Kuntī, all that you do, all that you eat, all that you offer and give away, as well as all austerities that you may perform, should be done as an offering unto Me. - Bhagavad-gītā 9.27In this way you will be freed from all reactions to good and evil deeds, and by this principle of renunciation you will be liberated and come to Me. - Bhagavad-gītā 9.28

In this landmark sixth chapter of The Journey Beyond Death, we begin a new arc titled “Mystics & Seers” by welcoming two of the most piercing voices in spiritual inquiry: Jeff Berwick and Shunyamurti. Together, they unravel what lies beyond this world—and how to reclaim the truth buried beneath illusion. Jeff Berwick, founder of The Dollar Vigilante, challenges the very nature of reality. Is this world a divine simulation? Is death just a shift of levels in a cosmic game? Through years of intensive meditation and consciousness experimentation, Berwick offers raw, revolutionary insights: that fear is programmed, death is misunderstood, and freedom begins when the mind surrenders. Shunyamurti, spiritual director of the Sat Yoga Ashram, takes us even deeper—into the still center of being that never dies. With razor-sharp clarity and mystical presence, he explores why the soul incarnates, how ego fragments the Real, and what it means to awaken before death. His message: You are not the body, not the mind, not even the story. You are the eternal light watching it all. This episode is not for the casually curious. It's for the seeker standing at the threshold, ready to cross. Death is not the end. It is the illusion we must transcend to truly live. ------------------------------ Featuring in order of appearance 01:00 - Metaphysical Seeker & Sovereignty Advocate Jeff Berwick 44:00 - Spiritual Master & Founder of the Sat Yoga Institute Shunyamurti -------------------------------- Jeff Berwick is a financial iconoclast, spiritual truth-seeker, and founder of The Dollar Vigilante. After building and selling Canada's largest financial website, Stockhouse.com, Berwick spent years traveling to over 100 countries—seeking freedom, truth, and a deeper understanding of reality beyond the mainstream matrix. One of the first analysts to call Bitcoin at $3 and Ethereum at $2, Berwick also teaches that we're living in a cosmic simulation—a spiritual “video game” where awakening means reclaiming our power from fear, control, and illusion. Through his media platform Vigilante.tv, bestselling book The Controlled Demolition of the American Empire, and his annual Anarchapulco conference, Berwick fuses financial independence, metaphysics, and radical self-liberation. Website: TV Channel: ----------------------------- Shunyamurti is a renowned spiritual teacher, yogi, and founder of the Sat Yoga Institute and Ashram in Costa Rica. Drawn to the path of inner liberation from an early age, he immersed himself in advanced practices of meditation, self-inquiry, and multiple yogic disciplines. His training included an apprenticeship with Baba Hari Dass, extensive study of Sri Ramana Maharshi's teachings, and over a decade of committed spiritual life in a Brahmachari ashram in India. Shunyamurti's wisdom synthesizes the core insights of Advaita Vedanta, Shaivism, and Buddhism with Western psychoanalytic traditions, transpersonal psychology, and mysticism. He has also explored altered states of consciousness through entheogens and integrated learnings from esoteric traditions like Taoism, Kabbalah, and mystical Christianity. Through his talks, writings, and intensive retreats, Shunyamurti offers a transformative path for those seeking inner silence, self-realization, and the transcendence of ego.
