This Baba Talk by Maetreyii Ma explores the true meaning of self-realization—a journey of awakening to what has always been. Through sincere Sadhana, meditation, and spiritual growth, you learn to see beyond the changing mind and emotions to the unchanging essence of your divine Self. As Viragya (detachment) and Viveka (discernment) deepen, the illusion of separateness fades, revealing the unity of Atman and Paramatma—the individual Self and the Infinite. With warmth and clarity, Maetreyii Ma shares how this awakening brings peace, bliss, and divine love, guiding you to live from the heart of oneness. Whether you are new to the path or an experienced seeker, this talk offers timeless wisdom to inspire your own journey toward self-realization and inner freedom.

In this Baba Talk by Maetreyii Ma, discover the timeless truth of existence and the mystery of awakening from the dream of separation. All creation, she explains, arises as a divine thought in the mind of Brahma — a cosmic dream flowing through infinite consciousness. Within this vast dream, your inner Self — the Atman — is not separate from the infinite Brahma, but a living reflection of that same divine awareness. Drawing from ancient Yoga philosophy, Maetreyii Ma reveals how awakening to your true nature brings freedom from fear, peace beyond time, and love that never ends. As you realize the Atman within the infinite Brahma, the illusion of individuality fades, and your heart opens to the oneness of all life. This talk is an invitation to rest in the stillness of your true being — the infinite love that you already are.

What if the deepest structures of mind and cosmos were one and the same? Could the mystery of consciousness be illuminated through the physics of black holes, the archetypes of Jung, or the eternal ideas of Plato?This conversation with Dr. Todd Desmond, philosopher of mind and consciousness, ventures into that threshold. Dr. Desmond's work investigates singularity as both a physical and psychological reality, drawing connections between philosophy, depth psychology, and cosmology. Together we follow the strange symmetry that links psyche and singularity — from Einstein's equations to Jung's archetypes, from Hegel's Absolute Idea to the holographic principle.Along the way, we consider whether the self itself might be understood as a singularity, what this implies for synchronicity and kairos, and how myth, art, and philosophy open new ways of conceiving the real.At the centre of this dialogue lies a question that reverberates through both science and spirit: is the mind a black hole?00:14 – What is a Singularity?03:48 – Black Holes & Physics07:21 – Jung, Pauli & Mirror Symmetry13:29 – Mathematical Forms & Ideas16:01 – Psyche = Singularity?20:09 – Hegel's Absolute Idea24:45 – The Self as Singularity28:20 – Science Fiction & Plexity36:14 – Myth, Cosmology & Science40:06 – Vedanta, Atman & Brahman50:55 – Wheeler's One Electron1:01:04 – Hegel, Jung & Mandala1:07:14 – Jung's Near-Death Experience1:13:42 – Holographic Principle1:20:56 – Black Hole Wars1:27:16 – Synchronicity & Kairos1:34:42 – Art & Metamorphosis1:40:06 – Heaven on Earth

Questions? Comments? Text Us!In this episode, Jerry and Abigail return for their fourth conversation in the series Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue, exploring the most profound theme of God: An Autobiography as Told to a Philosopher: the New Axial Age.The term “Axial Age,” introduced by philosopher Karl Jaspers, describes the pivotal era when some of the world's greatest spiritual figures appeared within a few centuries of one another: Socrates, the Hebrew prophets, the Buddha, Confucius, and the sages of the Upanishads. Humanity shifted on its spiritual axis, developing new ways of thinking, deeper moral insights, and new pathways to the divine. Now, Jerry shares that God revealed to him we stand on the threshold of another great transformation, a new spiritual era filled with both peril and promise.Together, Jerry and Abigail ask what this might mean for religions and traditions born in the first Axial Age. Are they fading, losing their power to hold communities together, as God suggests, while a new spirituality rises in diverse, often fragmented ways? Abigail speaks of her profound yet complex relationship with Judaism, her spiritual experiences in India, her affection for Gandhi, and her surprising love of country gospel. Jerry recalls his own journey from Southern Baptist and Pentecostal childhood through philosophy into a direct encounter with God.Their conversation moves between history, theology, and personal testimony, showing how ancient wisdom and modern lives intertwine. They consider the Jewish vocation of chronology and covenant, the Hindu pursuit of Atman and Brahman, and the universal human calling to partner with God in history. Through all of this, one theme emerges as both anchor and challenge: to be truthful—to reality, to God, and to oneself.Are we living through a moment of spiritual collapse or the birth of something radically new? Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue. Stay ConnectedShare your story: questions@godandautobiography.comShare Your Story | Site | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube

Questions? Comments? Text Us!In this episode of From God to Jerry to You, Dr. Jerry L. Martin explores a profound and timely revelation: the arrival of a New Spiritual Axial Age. God's message to Jerry wasn't just about retelling a familiar story; it was about reframing it for an era in which the world's faith traditions meet, interact, and evolve in ways never before possible.Jerry shares how God explained that humanity is living in an extraordinary period of spiritual transformation. The old religious frameworks are loosening, yet there is a renewed hunger for the Divine. This is not about creating one universal religion, but about opening pathways for spiritual growth through dialogue, exchange, and creative adaptation across traditions.Listeners will hear how the original Axial Age — the time of Socrates, Confucius, the Hebrew prophets, and Hindu sages — reshaped human consciousness, and how today's spiritual landscape mirrors that transformative energy. From the personal God of the Old Testament to the Hindu concept of the Atman, Jerry illustrates how these truths, when received in new contexts, can spark fresh revelations and foster spiritual development. God's vision invites people of all backgrounds to draw wisdom from multiple sources, not blending them into sameness, but allowing each tradition to inspire new insights and deepen the understanding of Divine reality.Join us for an episode that bridges faith and philosophy, history and the present day, and invites you to see your spiritual path as part of a larger, living story.Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue. Stay ConnectedShare your thoughts or questions at questions@godandautobiography.com

Terence Atmane vient de réaliser la plus belle performance de sa jeune carrière. Le tricolore s'est offert le 14ème joueur mondial Taylor Fritz, demi-finaliste du dernier Wimbledon, la nuit dernière à Cincinnati. Un premier top 20 mais aussi et surtout un premier quart de finale dans un Masters 1000 pour un joueur cantonné à jouer sur le circuit secondaire. Connu pour son tempérament explosif, cette victoire et ce parcours peuvent-il enfin lancer la carrière du Français de 23 ans ? Dans la 2e partie de l'émission, on reviendra sur les résultats du jours et notamment les éliminations d'Adrian Mannarino face à Jannick Sinner et de Benjamin Bonzi face à Felix-Auger-Alliasime. Et nous terminerons par la partie pronostics. Au menu notamment : Sinner vs Auger-Aliassime, Rune vs Atman, Shelton vs Lehecka, Seidel vs Gracheva. Débats, tactiques et pronostics avec Romain Favril, Julien Varlet et Benoit Maylin

Más allá del cuerpo, la mente y las emociones, existe un Ser inmutable, puro y consciente. En este episodio exploramos el viaje interior a través de las cinco cuevas del Ser (las pañcakośas) descritas en los Upanishads, desde el cuerpo físico hasta la dicha más sutil. Paso a paso, nos acercamos a la esencia: el testigo silencioso, el Atman, idéntico a Brahman.Un recorrido no espacial, sino de reconocimiento, desde lo conocido hacia lo Supremo: existencia, consciencia y dicha infinita.Hari Om Tat SatEncuéntranos en: https://www.instagram.com/satyarupayoga Gracias Infinitas.

Purusarthas – 4 Desires – MokshaMoksha is the ultimate desire...liberation from ignorance (avidya), the cycle of birth and death (samsara), and the effects of karma. It is the realization of one's true self (Atman), transcending the ego and achieving union with the divine (Brahman), leading to eternal bliss and peace.Yogis pursue Moksha through various paths: Hatha Yoga (physical practices), Raja Yoga (meditation), Jnana Yoga (knowledge), Karma Yoga (selfless service), and Bhakti Yoga (devotion). By practicing self-inquiry, mindfulness, and non-attachment (vairagya), they purify the mind and cultivate virtues such as compassion and forgiveness.Sacred texts like the Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita offer insights into Moksha, while guidance from a guru or one's inner wisdom (buddhi) aids the journey. Devotion and surrender help yogis transcend the ego and merge with the divine. With dedication and grace, Moksha brings profound liberation and spiritual transcendence, fulfilling the soul's deepest longing.To read more and to practice with Zephyr Wildman, click here.

I'm back with Chapter 2 of the Bhagavad Gita! This is so dense I had to split it into two parts. Today we'll discuss verses 1-38. This chapter serves as a foundation for understanding the eternal nature of the soul (Atman) and the importance of non-attachment in the face of life's challenges. Let's look at Arjuna's emotional turmoil and Krishna's tough love approach, emphasizing the need for inner stability and the acceptance of life's transient nature. The emphasis on the immortality of the soul, the significance of understanding one's Dharma, and the win-win perspective in life. This chapter literally has all of Krishna's essential teachings. Making it a gold mine. Get ready to learn from the original life coach (Krishna):

What if you didn't have to earn belonging—because it was already inside you? This episode explores the difference between seeking approval and trusting your own worth. So many of us shrink ourselves, wear masks, or change who we are just to feel accepted. But belonging isn't something we gain from others—it's something we remember within ourselves.The conversation dives into the idea that molding yourself to please others can feel safe in the moment, but over time it pulls you further from your truth. Drawing from yogic philosophy (Asmita, Satya, and Santosha) and neuroscience, the episode shows how authenticity and self-compassion lead to stronger relationships, inner peace, and true resilience.Through journal prompts, gentle breathing practices, and reflective mantras, you'll be guided back to the part of you that knows: I am already enough. I belong to myself. This episode is for anyone who's tired of performing and ready to live in integrity with who they truly are.Episode Chapters:00:00:00 Introduction00:03:42 Seeking Approval vs. Inner Worth00:08:16 Yoga Lens: Asmita and Atman00:10:53 Scientific View: Self-Compassion & Belonging00:13:39 Reflective Prompts: What Are You Hiding?00:16:44 Performing vs. Integrity00:22:08 Neuroscience of Authenticity00:25:50 Belonging Lives Within00:28:11 Final Reflection Prompts00:29:45 Closing Mantras & Breathwork—-------—-------—-

Have you ever heard a voice inside you whisper, “You're not good enough”? This episode is a gentle and powerful reminder that your inner critic is not who you really are. It explores how that harsh inner voice—the one that tells you you're not ready, smart enough, or worthy—can sound convincing, but it isn't the truth of your being. That voice comes from fear and old patterns, not from your deepest self.Using both yoga philosophy and neuroscience, the episode explains the idea of Asmita (false identity), which is when we mistake our thoughts, labels, or past mistakes for who we are. But underneath the noise is your true self—calm, compassionate, and clear. The path forward isn't to silence the critic completely, but to stop letting it run your life.With reflection prompts, breath practices, and mantras, you'll learn how to shift your focus from fear to inner wisdom.

“I am the vine; you are the branches.If you remain in me and I in you,you will bear much fruit;apart from Me you can do nothing." - John 15:5*****************************************In every situation I've ever been in,I stand there long enough,or I sit there long enough,listening to the Silence within, and whatever emotion was (t)here,it parts like clouds, and there's the Son, again. Jesus, smiling like,'You did it! GoOD!Now let's do it again... (let's take it from the top haha)Can you recognize Me again? Can you find Me again? In this scene?And in this mess?And in that person? And in this circumstance?And in this moment?And in this one?And in this one?And in this one? This is all you're ever doing. Look up. Which means, look in.This Love will bear fruit,abundantly. It is Law. I love you, nik--Find playbacks of our Live Stream Rosary HERE on Youtube!--Blessed Rosaries will be back soon!--Our new book, 'Wake Up to Love' is HERE! Get your copy. Share a copy.

"(From Jesus) Surrender to me does not mean to fret, to be upset, or to lose hope, nor does it mean offering to Me a worried prayer, asking Me to follow you and change your worry into prayer. It is against this surrender, deeply against it, to worry, to be nervous and to desire to think about the consequences of anything. It is like the confusion that children feel when they ask their mother to see to their needs, and then try to take care of those needs for themselves so that their childlike efforts get in their mother's way. Surrender means to placidly close the eyes of the soul, to turn away from thoughts of tribulation and to put yourself in My care, so that only I act; saying, "You take care of it".(Repeat the following prayer 10 times.)O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.Amen" - Father Ruotolo Dolindo "A beautiful prayer to Krishna is, 'please let me feel your warm affection as I chant.'" - Mahatma Das "Without a name, without a body, tell me about yourself. Tell me something about yourself without mentioning your memories or mind. Can you tell me something? Nothing can be said... That's You." - Nisargadatta Maharaj“‘Lest ye become as little children, you cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.' Unless you start again, become that trusting, open surrendered being, the energy can't come in. That's the kingdom of heaven; the energy, cosmic consciousness, the same thing.” – Ram Dass"He was crucified so that his spirit could spread throughout the world. He sacrificed his body for the dharma. He never died, he never died. He is Atman (the Soul), living in the hearts of all." -Neem Karoli Baba
