I'm actually pure consciousness."19:36 You can stop thinking and all the imagery, but you can't make the consciousness go away, because that's your Self.20:19 Do you rise above that, Baba, in Nirvikalpa Samadhi or Sahaja Samadhi?20:37 Verse 5 comments21:49 What is watching the mind through the mind?24:31 So there is a duality in the sense that there's a knowingness going on, but there's no second thing, it's just knowing itself.25:40 So we're using the mind's attention to watch itself, is that what we're trying to accomplish with meditation?27:28 So once you get absorbed in that point there is just seeing?28:36 As you become absorbed in between the eyebrows, you are no longer seeing with the eyeballs, but yet you continue to see with your mind's eye?29:40 Reading of verses.31:25 All the universe has arisen in this Self simply by imagination.33:14 "You realize that this space is the ultimate Truth and Pure Consciousness."34:32 "Space is the source of consciousness of Self Existence."35:10 "Every term used is as an imagination for the sake of understanding and communication in this world."37:21 "The universe is also a higher consciousness magic show with no existence value"38:32 What's the difference between pure awareness and pure consciousness?39:09 Which will exist after the finishing of the body and mind — Pure Awareness, or Pure Consciousness?39:26 So awareness requires mind?39:45 What's the difference between Pure Consciousness and Consciousness of Existence?40:27 Sometimes you've given the example, if a person is looking in a mirror, the image in the mirror can't see the person. Is the person in that example consciousness, and the image in the mirror the mind?41:05 Why does the mind constantly test itself?42:41 In reality is there a specific auspicious or inauspicious time?44:15 Why would one come back to the body after the merger has happened?44:51 Just before the merger there's a warmth of duality that is experienced before you merge? Can one experience loved ones before the merger?47:41 What is the concept of 'the feet of Lord Vishnu'?48:51 Is the external world and what's happening also part of the mind — the same mind as the inner mind, but a higher potency?50:01 There is only one divinity, there is nothing else? So then everything is God?51:22 What do you mean watch the thoughts? Either thought is not there, or I am not watching it. 53:30 You don't try to actually watch the thought that you're having? You just continue to watch without imagining?54:32 My video was off during the initiation.  Have I received Baba's initiation?55:01 Just before merging, is there any Samyama that is helpful for Moksha, or is patience all that is needed? 57:38 If you have an intention when performing samyama, will it help to manifest that intention?58:16 Is dhyana, meditation, the ending of experience?___Website: http://www.srby.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/shivarudrabalayogiTwitter: https://twitter.com/SRBYmissionInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shivarudrabalayogi/Register your free place for the live online meditation and Q&A with Babaji: https://www.shivarudrabalayogi.org/en/online-satsang Website: http://www.srby.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/shivarudrabalayogiTwitter: https://twitter.com/SRBYmissionInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shivarudrabalayogi/

This episode covers the next part of chapter 34 from: “How remote seemed my family, the office, the world, as I…”  to “...This is some daydream you have recounted.” This episode covers the final stages Lahiri Mahasaya's initiation into Kriya yoga, where Mahavatar Babaji demonstrated materialisation abilities by creating a palace and a bowl of plenty that could fulfill any desire. We explored the philosophical implications of these miracles, comparing them to similar abilities described in other spiritual texts, and examined Lahiri's subsequent seven-day experience in Nirbikalpa Samadhi. We also discussed the significance of Lahiri's role as an ideal yogi householder in Benares, rather than remaining in the Himalayas with Babaji, emphasising that spiritual advancement is possible for those living ordinary lives with family and work responsibilities. 00:00 Introduction; 0:45 Prior Episode; 2:27 The bowl of endless plenty; 23:00 Nirbikalpa Samadhi; 35:00 The life of a householder 56:00 Looking Ahead. Homework for next episode— Read, absorb and make notes on the next part of chapter 34 from: “How remote seemed my family, the office, the world, as I…”  to “...This is some daydream you have recounted.” #autobiographyofayogi  #autobiographylinebyline  #paramahansayogananda Autobiography of a Yogi awake.minute Self-Realization Fellowship Yogoda Satsanga Society of India #SRF #YSS

This episode covers the next part of chapter 34 from: “As I remained silent in awe, my guide made a sweeping gesture…”  to “...Put your hand there and receive whatever food you desire.” This episode continues Lahiri Mahasaya's experience with Babaji's materialised palace. We examine how Babaji manifested a jewelled palace from cosmic rays to fulfil Lahiri's past life desire for a golden palace, with detailed discussions about the philosophical implications of what constitutes matter and reality. We explored Paramahansa Yogananda's commentary on karma, particularly the four definitions of karma from Bhagavad Gita, and how Lahiri's experience fit into these categories. The conversation covered the palace's purpose as a testing ground for Lahiri's initiation into Kriya Yoga, the mystical nature of the initiation ceremony, and the eventual dematerialisation of the palace when Lahiri's desire was fulfilled.  00:00 Introduction; 0:40 Prior Episode; 1:15 Transitoriness; 16:20 Desire extinguished; 26:50 Kriya Initiation; 46:15 Dematerialised; 56:55 Looking Ahead. Homework for next episode— Read, absorb and make notes on the next part of chapter 34 from: “I touched the broad, empty bowl; hot buttered luchis, curry…”  to “... liberation is dependent on inner, rather than outer, renunciations.” #autobiographyofayogi  #autobiographylinebyline  #paramahansayogananda Autobiography of a Yogi awake.minute Self-Realization Fellowship Yogoda Satsanga Society of India #SRF #YSS

This episode covers the next part of chapter 34 to: “Yonder light is the glow of a golden palace...”  to “...When this structure has served its purpose, Babaji will dematerialise it.'” Lahiri Mahasaya shows that even liberated masters must temporarily engage with cosmic delusion to maintain a physical form, with Babaji fulfilling Lahiri Mahasai's latent desire for a palace as part of his (self-imposed) karmic completion. We take a deep dive into the spiritual significance of the materialised golden palace, including its devotional features like incense, roses, and lamps, and discussed how the story relates to the concept that all creation is mind-born and sustained by God's will. We also examined the importance of proper spiritual initiation through authorised channels and discussed how the story reflects the principle that every human wish must eventually be fulfilled, whether in this lifetime or future ones.  00:00 Introduction; 1:25  Prior Episode; 2:11 Beginning of the end; 23:23 Beauty in man-made creation; 38:51 A Babaji production; 52:04 Looking Ahead. Homework for next episode— Read, absorb and make notes on the next part of chapter 34 to: “As I remained silent in awe, my guide made a sweeping gesture…”  to “...Put your hand there and receive whatever food you desire.” #autobiographyofayogi  #autobiographylinebyline  #paramahansayogananda Autobiography of a Yogi awake.minute Self-Realization Fellowship Yogoda Satsanga Society of India #SRF #YSS

This episode covers the next part of chapter 34 to: “As I maintained a bewildered silence, the saint approached...”  to “‘The hour is midnight.' My guide laughed softly...” This section of the chapter focuses on the meeting between Lahiri Mahashaya and Mahavar Babaji in the Himalayas. The conversation centred on a profound reunion where Babaji touched Lahiri Mahasaya's forehead, triggering the recall of past lifetime memories. We explored the spiritual significance of this meeting, drawing parallels to Krishna's relationship with Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita, and discussed how Babaji had been watching over Lahiri Mahasaya across lifetimes with "deathless love".  00:00 Introduction; 1:00 Prior Episode 2:30 The touch that awakens 10:00 A love beyond death; 30:10 You need purification; 37:10 A light at midnight; 38:00 Looking Ahead Links discussed in the episode: Dunagiri to Gogash River: https://maps.app.goo.gl/NwTVrqP8RngiguGX7 Homework for next episode— Read, absorb and make notes on the next part of chapter 34 to: “Yonder light is the glow of a golden palace...”  to “...When this structure has served its purpose, Babaji will dematerialise it.' #autobiographyofayogi  #autobiographylinebyline  #paramahansayogananda Autobiography of a Yogi awake.minute Self-Realization Fellowship Yogoda Satsanga Society of India #SRF #YSS

We examined the supernatural elements of the encounter, including the appearance of light beings and the manifestation of Babaji's physical form, as well as the philosophical implications of Babaji's promise to remain physically present on Earth. We analyse the spiritual significance of bowing and reverence in Hindu tradition, discussed cross-references to Greek philosophy and biblical texts, and explored the concept of masters maintaining physical forms for specific missions. They also considered the broader implications of the chapter's themes about immortality, maya (cosmic delusion), and the nature of spiritual existence. 0:00 Introduction; 1:15 Prior Episode; 2:20 Mataji; 9:15 Flying without wings; 26:15 Immortal promise; 42:40 Coming back down to earth; 1:01:40 Epic footnote; 1:10:40 Reflections on the chapter. Links discussed in the episode: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dashashwamedh_Ghat https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thales_of_Miletus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiranjivi?wprov=sfla1 Homework for next episode— Read, absorb and make notes on the start of chapter 34 to: “...releasing the sweet seed-memories of my previous life.” #autobiographyofayogi  #autobiographylinebyline  #paramahansayogananda Autobiography of a Yogi awake.minute Self-Realization Fellowship Yogoda Satsanga Society of India #SRF #YSS

Thus it is the absolute."33:56 But you're also saying even what's imagined is the ultimate truth too?35:29 Verse 635:43 When one is able to overcome all imaginations of the mind, unhappiness is dispelled once and for all. 37:35 Is it awareness that makes consciousness possible, or consciousness that makes awareness possible?38:31 'I am' consciousness and the awareness in pure consciousness.40:14 Verse 740:32 Is the world simply an imagination?44:51 So we can become the truth and have that Pure Awareness, but we can't know the truth because that would reduce Truth to just an idea in the mind.45:24 Since birth we have gone on absorbing impressions and beliefs until it is a firm reality.46:59 Verse 847:17 "Do sadhana and know the truth for yourself."49:22 Verse 950:18 "A Yogi realizes that 'I' is nothing but the ultimate truth of the Self"50:50 So it's the pure awareness, or consciousness of existence from where the "I" arises?52:33 In meditation, I have encountered two parts of watching; one is when we are trying to ignore thoughts and we just bring our attention to the centre (between our eyebrows), and second is, by just watching the thought, it dissolves itself. Is there a difference?54:22 Is ignoring a thought possible?54:45 When you first touched the feet of Shivabalayogi, your sense of 'I' disappeared. Can you remove the sense of 'I' from us if we touch your feet?56:33 How to harness and sustain intention, and is it related to concentration and devotion?57:54 Being quiet in life and the mind quietening when hearing Babaji talk.59:49 Being bothered by the amount of garbage waste in the world - is there a spiritual solution to it?1:01:27 How to be in awareness when doing something and not forget what I am doing?1:02:35 Research talks of importance of connection with other people, is it ok not to have relations with other people?1:04:27 Perspective on other lineages where meditation techniques are a lot more complicated, using chakras etc.Website: http://www.srby.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/shivarudrabalayogiTwitter: https://twitter.com/SRBYmissionInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shivarudrabalayogi/Register your free place for the live online meditation and Q&A with Babaji: https://www.shivarudrabalayogi.org/en/online-satsang Website: http://www.srby.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/shivarudrabalayogiTwitter: https://twitter.com/SRBYmissionInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shivarudrabalayogi/

This episode covers the next part of chapter 33 from : “Krishna, Rama, Buddha, and Patanjali were among the ancient Indian avatars…” to “…he occasionally accepts fruits, or rice cooked in milk and clarified butter”. Summary: This episode uncovers more about Mahavatar Babaji, described as the deathless yogi of the Himalayas who has guided spiritual history throughout centuries. We discuss Babaji's role as a great avatar who works in communion with Christ, and the other avatars including Krishna, Rama, Buddha, and Patanjali, as well as Agastya. The discussion included details about Babaji's physical appearance, habits, and his mission to assist prophets in carrying out special dispensations, while emphasizing that Babaji remains in humble obscurity to avoid misinterpretation and public scrutiny. 0:00 Introduction; 0:50 Prior Episode; 2:30 Avatars; 14:00 Babaji's mission; 27:30 Babaji's form; 46:30 Looking Ahead. Links discussed in this episode:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dashavatara https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shesha https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saptarshi https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agastya https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nattatreeswarar_Temple  Homework for next episode— Read, absorb and make notes on the next part of chapter 33 from: “Two amazing incidents of Babaji's life are known to me…” to “…the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me”. #autobiographyofayogi  #autobiographylinebyline  #paramahansayogananda Autobiography of a Yogi awake.minute Self-Realization Fellowship Yogoda Satsanga Society of India #SRF #YSS

Seated outside at Babaji's Kerala Kitchen, beside the warmth of the fire pit and surrounded by the hills of Warburton, I first spoke with owner Billy Crombie. As the conversation continued, chef Jithin Pattiyal joined me, sharing his journey from Kerala to Australia and offering insight into the authentic, carefully crafted approach to cooking that underpins everything at Babaji's.

Billy Crombie and husband Max (Mohammed) Kamil Hassan don't run a typical regional restaurant. At Babaji's Kerala Kitchen, set in a restored 1936 cabaret hall on the edge of Warburton in Victoria's Yarra Valley, they have built something closer to a cultural bridge, and, for many Southern Indians, a portal back home. In this conversation, Billy talks through everything from the ritual of pouring a steaming davara coffee and the pull of nostalgia, the familiar feel of Kerala recreated in the hills and the importance of community. She reflects on the challenge of staying fiercely authentic in a market that doesn't always understand South Indian food, the unlikely journey from a market stall to a destination restaurant people will drive hours to reach, and the deeply personal mix of place, identity and community that underpins everything Babaji's has become. It was such a great chat and Billy gave me lots of delicious curries to take away and try with my friends in Warburton, which was generous and lovely.

This episode covers the start of chapter 33 to: “…could Christ indeed be followed except in the overarching Spirit?” Summary: The meeting focused on discussing Chapter 33 of "Autobiography of a Yogi" by Paramahansa Yogananda, which introduces the character of Babaji. The participants, including Chris, Priyank, Michael, and Lauren, explored Babaji's significance as an avatar, his mysterious presence in the Himalayas, and his connections to other spiritual masters like Jesus and Omar Khayyam. They examined Yogananda's interpretation of Omar Khayyam's poetry and its spiritual meaning, discussing how Western interpretations often miss the deeper mystical content. The group also touched on the concept of avatars and different levels of spiritual liberation, including the terms Siddha, Jivan Mukta, and Paramukta as described in the text. The discussion concluded with a preview of upcoming episodes that would delve deeper into Babaji's mission and experiences. 0:00 Introduction; 3:09 Expectations from the chapter; 9:22 Mahavatar Babaji; 26:05 Rubaiyat and Omar Khayyam; 39:30 Freedom; 43:30 Looking Ahead. Links discussed in this episode:  https://www.holydham.com/stories-related-to-badrinath/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dashavatara Homework for next episode— Read, absorb and make notes on the next part of chapter 33 from: “Krishna, Rama, Buddha, and Patanjali were among the ancient Indian avatars…” to “…he occasionally accepts fruits, or rice cooked in milk and clarified butter”. #autobiographyofayogi  #autobiographylinebyline  #paramahansayogananda Autobiography of a Yogi awake.minute Self-Realization Fellowship Yogoda Satsanga Society of India #SRF #YSS

Is meditation enough or is self-inquiry necessary on a regular basis?10:57 Who is the one practising if ultimately there is no separate self?11:36 When we are aware and very conscious that ‘I am That', can we again fall into the trap of desires? 13:35 When we say we are one is that because we are made up of all the same elements and consciousness?17:44 How to solve the problem of your relations not being prepared to join you in your journey of becoming detached and achieving oneness?19:47 Why is it we cannot reach the true love which is non-transactional?28:02 Is it selfish to say our time has come to realise the truth, or do we say it is our destiny which got us here and other people who have not realised will get their time in due course? 31:15 When Babaji met His Master Swamiji the sense of ‘I' disappeared.

Hard News on Friday with Tara Green and Rama Arjuna and guests New Earth Timelines, Solar Ascension, and the Awakening of Inner Light Opening the Council Fire and the Mayan Record of Days In this episode of Hard News on Friday Night, Rainbird opens with a ceremonial grounding, inviting listeners into breath, heart space, guides, ancestors, spirit teams, and a virtual council fire. She calls in the seven galactic directions through the Mayan tradition and then turns to the Mayan record of days for the current week. The day is described as One Kabon, the red magnetic earth, beginning a new wave centered on purpose, synchronicity, navigation, and evolving with the Earth. Rainbird walks through the upcoming days, including the new moon, storm energy, sun energy, dragon energy, wind energy, night energy, and seed energy, framing the week as one of transformation, intuition, navigation, and new beginnings. Donations, Community Support, and the Talking Stick Rainbird then shifts into practical support for the radio programs and the people behind them. She explains that listener-supported donations help cover weekly BBS Radio expenses for Hard News on Friday Night and the Saturday program The True History, The History NESARA and Our Galactic Origins. She also shares specific financial needs for Tar and Rama, including bills, rent, and living expenses, and gives donation instructions through PayPal and mail. After expressing gratitude to the listeners and community, she passes the talking stick to Rama, describing it as filled with universal laws, essential ways, and the intention of peace on Earth. Rama on Timelines, Ascended Masters, and the New Earth Rama speaks about the rapid movement toward NESARA, Saint Germain, ancient wisdom, and the return of founding principles connected to the ascended masters. He describes a shift in consciousness in which timelines are diverging, with one prominent timeline becoming the “new timeline” of heaven on Earth. He references beings such as Arcturians, Lady Master Lea Nara, Babaji, gnomes, fairies, elves, hobbits, deer, crows, cats, and magical Earth beings as part of a living spiritual reality. Rama also discusses global events, including Gaza and southern Lebanon, calling for violet fire and more love in response to suffering and conflict. Two Timelines and Staying Calibrated A major section of the episode features an extended recording from Dana Stovern about functioning as a human being while two distinct timelines are active on Earth. Dana explains that after significant ascension shifts, especially around mid-April 2026, many people are now walking in a newly hatched ascended landscape while another lower-frequency reality continues to generate fear-based events and information. She urges listeners to check in each morning, ask which timeline they are calibrated to, talk with their spirit team, and stay aligned with their highest and best path. Her core advice is to catch triggers, ground, breathe, center, and ask whether a given headline, fear, or event truly pertains to one's timeline, region, and spiritual path. Solar Frequencies, Violet Flame, and Inner Alchemy Tar and Rama continue by emphasizing that the sun, the Great Central Sun, solar flares, ley lines, dragon lines, and interdimensional energies are affecting the Earth and human consciousness. They describe ascension frequencies pouring in and upgrading people into higher-dimensional awareness. The episode then moves into a guided teaching on the violet flame of inner alchemy, explaining that transformation does not come from forcing oneself to change, but from expanding awareness and allowing dense or contracted energy to be met, softened, and reorganized. The meditation invites listeners to sense a luminous violet presence in the heart, allowing emotions, memories, or contractions to be held in a field of transformation. Ancient Egypt, History Before History, and the Creator Within The episode closes with a recording from Kryon speaking at Abydos in Egypt about ancient history, the Osirion, and civilizations that may predate commonly accepted historical timelines. Kryon describes the structure as older than Egypt and connected to “history before history,” suggesting that future technologies may reveal forgotten civilizations and deeper human origins. The message emphasizes that many civilizations have recognized the Creator because the divine is intrinsic to human biology. Kryon links ancient Egyptian spirituality, reincarnation, old souls, and the compassion of the Creator to the new energy coming to Earth, saying that old souls who remember the wisdom of ancient Egypt are important for helping manifest a more compassionate future.
