Podcasts about Devotion

His Hill Camp Director and Bible School teacher Connor Patterson leads in another episode of our Church History series as he looks at the effects of Christianity becoming the official religion of the Roman Empire.

In this episode, Pastor Devon sits down and talks about how we approach the culture. There are many aspects of the culture and movements around us that are religious in nature. We must understand this if we desire to serve the Lord better and be faithful to Him throughout our lives.  Revival Talks is a series of discussions where staff from our church and members of our community sit down and talk about various topics in light of what is going on in our church, our community, and our world.For more information about our church visit us on our website, our Facebook page, and our YouTube.

STOP!!!  “We've got you surrounded!”   How would you feel if you heard those words while lights flashed around you and people started coming towards you with handcuffs to  arrest you for something.    It's pretty scary to think about being surrounded by something or someone that's not on your side.     Now we're not criminals on the run but we do have situations that can sometimes feel similar.     When trouble, grief, or worry hits us again and again…if you have no anchor and you have to battle all of those waves on your own….it can be scary and you feel surrounded!  It's the worst thing to feel alone wondering if you're going to survive the hits or not.     Today we're moving forward with a couple of verses from Psalm 32 that will help us find so much peace in these types of situations.      If you have any questions you can email us at: votl.podcast@gmail.com Instagram: @votlchurch Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/votl.org/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbssSY_GyJMabh9W-sSVQpQ  Online: https://votl.org

A good story can change the way you see something or someone...

There are few theories regarding God's grace in Indian philosophy:1. It is earned through good works (karma)2. It is earned through devotion (bhakti)3. It is earned through renunciation (tyāga)4. It comes as a result of two equally strong samskaras bubbling up at the same time and checking one and another, thus artificially stalling all future karmas from fructifying (karmasāmya) Using some arguments from Abinava Gupta's commentary on the Mālinīvijaya Tantra, we'll show why all of these are absolutely wrong.  We'll demonstrate how:(a) grace comes from the independent, playful will of Divine Mother.  (b) since all this is verily śiva, God is really ever gracing Herself.We will also, Mā willing, respond to a few objections regarding grace:1. If there is such a thing as grace, then, surely God is partial to some and not to others? Why would she keep some in bondage and liberate only a few?2. If God is playfully enacting her will a bondage and liberation, then, why bother? Why go through the trouble of bondage at all?3. If God's grace is the only operant factor in a person's liberation and if God's grace cannot be earned through spiritual practice, why bother to engage in practice at all?Naturally, we'll review the 9 grades of śaktipāta (grace) in Abinava Gupta's classification. This will help us gauge what level of spirituality we are currently at so that we can better enjoy our time as aspirants!Also, we get to talk a little about enjoyment and renunciation in spiritual life and why renunciation is an absolutely natural, easeful and effortless process, like we started talking about last week! (anādara virakti).And finally, if there's time, I want to share some quotes from Utpala Deva's Shivastoravali to show how Devotion is the highest attainment in Kashmir Shaivism (i.e. bhakti is the total ripening of jnana, which is itself synonymous with liberation itself) thereby linking it so Sri Ramakrishna's views on the same!  The 9 Levels of Śaktipāt:1. Tīvra tīvra = Intensely intense = videha mukti2. Madhya tīvra = Moderately intense = jīvanmukti3. Manda tīvra = Weakly Intense = jīvanmutki4. Tīvra madhya = intensely moderate = krama mukti5. Madya madya = Moderately moderate = krama mukti6. Manda madhya = Weakly moderate = krama mukti7. Tīvra manda = Weak but Intense8. Madya manda = Moderately weak9. Manda manda = Weakly weakQuotes from Abinava Gupta's Paramarthasaraādarśe malarahite yadvad vadanaṃ vibhāti tadvad ayam |śiva - śaktipātavimale dhītattve bhāti bhārūpaḥ  ( 9 )  As a face shines forth in a spotlessly clean mirror, in the same way the supreme Lord who is of the nature of illumination shines forth in the buddhi (intellect) tattva that has been purified following the descent of divine grace by the Lord.   paramaṃ yat svātantryaṃ durghaṭasaṃpādanaṃ maheśasya devī māyāśaktiḥ svātmāvaraṇaṃ śivasyaitat  ( 15 )  The supreme Lord's great freedom, which is capable of accomplishing the most difficult task, is called the Goddess Maya-sakti. It serves Paramasiva as a veil to hide Himself.kambukamiva taṇḍulakaṇa - viniviṣṭaṃ bhinnamapyabhidā |bhajate tattu viśuddhiṃ śivamārgaunmukhyayogena  (18)The husk existing on a grain of rice, though existing separately, appears inseparable from the grain. But [the fettered being, who similarly seems attached to his fetters] attains purity by turning towards Siva through Yoga and treading on his path.svajñānavibhavabhāsana - yogenodveṣṭayennijātmānam | iti bandhamokṣacitrāṃ krīḍāṃ pratanoti paramaśivaḥ  (33)Lord ParamaSiva liberates himself from bondage by loosening its grip through the glory of knowledge of the Self.
