Baba Jaimal Singh, and other disciples of Soamiji Maharaj, were initiated in Soamiji's meditation room at his home in Panni Gali, Agra.    "Swami Ji then began to instruct him [Baba Jaimal Singh] into the theory and practice of Surat Shabd Yoga, and when the instructions were over, asking the youth of seventeen to sit down for meditation, he left the room.   "As soon as Jaimal Singh sat down for meditation, he got lost in samadhi. The night came and passed away, the day broke, but he continued motionless, lost in the inner bliss he had discovered. Another day saw itself swallowed by the night, and the night saw itself replaced by another day, and yet the youth sat lost to the world around him.   "When some forty-eight hours had thus gone by, Swami Ji asked some of the disciples if they knew where the visitor from the Punjab had disappeared. 'We saw him two days ago at the Satsang,' they said, 'but we have not seen him since.'   "Swami Ji smiled and proceeded straight to the little room where he had left his latest disciple and which none had entered for two days. He placed his hand on Jaimal Singh's head, and when the latter's soul returned to the normal physical consciousness and he opened his eyes, he saw his Guru beaming at him. 'Do you, my boy, still doubt if your Master be a true Sikh or not?' He asked with a twinkle in his eye."

Today is October 31, which is Halloween day here in Canada, and I know in the United States it is as well. The title of my episode today is, is fear holding you back. And fear certainly seems to go along with Halloween, doesn't it? I mean, fear, we think about all those ghosts and goblins and, and all the scary images. And I think that some of us just love the thrill of that fear, the thrill of being scared. We can talk about about the kinds of fear we get from watching a scary movie but is there something in this world that you are so afraid of that it's holding you back from accomplishing what you want to accomplish? I think the answer may be Yes. I believe a lot of us have a fear of success. Listen & Subscribe on: iTunes / Stitcher / Podbean / Overcast / Spotify Step Out For some reason, sometimes we think that people who are successful aren't actually that happy, or they may have a lot of money, but they spend more time worrying about what to do with the money than they do being able to enjoy it. People think a lot of different thoughts and have a lot of different opinions like this. Do you have a fear of failure, a fear that if you do take a risk, if you do step out, then maybe you won't succeed? Would failure be worse than even trying in the first place? I don't think it is worse, I think it's better to step out. Try your hand at achieving what you want to achieve. Is Fear Real? Go for your dreams. And don't forget that success is only defined the way you define it. Does that mean everything has to go the way you want it to go? Does it mean you have to make a certain amount of money or you have to gain certain popularity with your friends? I did a Mindfulness Mode interview at one time called ‘Fear Is Not Real.' Do you think fear is real? I think fear is as real as you make it. Fear is not real was explained by Jaimal Yogis. That was on episode 228. He wrote a book called, Salt Water Buddha. I had a fantastic time talking with Jaimal, I appreciate him so much, including how he lives his life. There is a flow in Jaimal's life. He is a surfer so it's not surprising that I would feel a sense of water and waves in his personality. Is fear real in your life? Sticks and Leaves? ‘Surrender To Fear To Reach Peace' is another episode I published. That was with relationship expert named Erik Newton. I believe it's important to be able to surrender to fear as that act of surrendering can take us through to peace and contentment. The more we resist fear, the worse it can be. The more we resist pain, the more painful it can be. The more we try to resist our emotions, the more they will be difficult to deal with and difficult to bear. I definitely agree with Erik Newton when he talks about how to surrender to fear to reach peace. What's your method of surrendering to fear? I reach that state of surrender through meditation and by allowing my thoughts of fear, worry, or concern, to simply be there. With my clients, I often say, “just imagine you're watching the water in a river. And there are sticks and leaves floating along, bobbing along in the water. And just imagine those are your thoughts. They're just moving along.” Tune in to listen to the rest of the episode.

Using Mindfulness to Find Joy as a Parent, and even not as a parent -- not that easy right now. Today's guest,Jaimal Yogis, is a longtime friend, a dad to three boys under ten, a husband, an author, a speaker, and a mindfulness expert. Jaimal has written several bestselling books, including Saltwater Buddah, The Fear Project, and his latest book, which is a beautifully illustrated kid's book (equally pleasing to adults) called Mop Rides the Waves of Life. It teaches kids about feelings through surfing. Jaimal and his wife are busy. She's a CEO of a health technology company. He's got a fulltime job.

This conversation made me feel calmer. I hope it does the same for you!

Jaimal Yogis, The Saltwater Buddha found himself in trouble, ran away to Hawaii to follow his lifelong dream of surfing, lived in a Buddhist monastery, then wanted to be a writer. Jaimal discovered more about himself and the world he lives in. His memoir, the best seller, The Saltwater Buddha has now been adapted into a film. Jaimal helps us find peace in an out of control distracted and overly busy world, taking lessons from Zen to show us how to better handle the chaos surrounding us. Jaimal is a bohemian, author, buddhist, monk, surfer, a runaway… how does he see his identity today? What has Jaimal learnt about his identity?  Jaimal shares the story of the samurai and the zen master and the difference between heaven and hell. How does Jaimal stay the path without drifting away with ego? Where do we find or build freedom of the mind and how can that be genuinely created? What is the most profound thing Jaimal has learnt about freedom? The story of the second arrow, and where has Jaimal employed the second arrow? Jaimal's Dad was a military guy who did  yoga. How did his Dad meld that dichotomy? Jaimal's Dad came home one day and said I'm leaving. How well can Jaimal remember that day? How has Jaimal changed the language in his own mind when feeling fear? “Very sad, no problem” Where did that story originate and why does that statement mean so much to Jaimal? The poet Rumi “We are not a drop in the ocean. We are the ocean in a drop.” Why that resonates with Jaimal?   LINKS   Garrett McNamara world record wave https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74pnrYPozcU   Jaimal Yogis http://www.jaimalyogis.com   Saltwater Buddha | Coming of Age Surf Documentary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdShd1CgHws   Jaimal Ep 145 The Mojo Radio Show https://www.themojoradioshow.com/ep-145---jaimal-yogis.html   Giovanni Dienstmann https://www.themojoradioshow.com/ep-203-giovanni-dienstmann.html   The Mojo Radio Show http://www.themojoradioshow.com   The Mojo Radio Show on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheMojoRadioShowPodcast/   The Mojo Radio Show on Twitter https://twitter.com/tmrspod   The Mojo Radio Show Answering Machine 08 7200 6656 08 7200 MOJO   The Mojo Radio Show copyright Gary Bertwistle & Darren Robertson   Products or companies we discuss are not paid endorsements.

Jaimal Yogis is The Saltwater Buddha. At a young age, finding himself in trouble, Jaimal ran away to Hawaii to follow his lifelong dream of surfing.

This became his memoir in the best seller - The Saltwater Buddha. Jaimal has written for ESPN Magazine, The Washington Post, Oprah and many others. This is a beautiful story about finding peace in an out of control distracted and overly busy world. Taking his lessons from Zen and placing them into your busy corporate and personal lives empowers us to better handle the chaos surrounding us.     The Mojo Radio Show copyright Gary Bertwistle & Darren Robertson      See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Episode 162: Jaimal Yogis is a graduate of the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism, Jaimal Yogis is the author of Saltwater Buddha, a coming-of-age memoir about how surfing and the sea helped him transition back to the world after a year in a Zen monastery (now also a documentary film); and The Fear Project, which looks at the neuroscience of fear and courage, using science, mindfulness, and sports to reveal ways in which humans can live more fully. His new book, All Our Waves Are Water  (July, Harper Wave) uses the sea as a metaphor to explore the true self. Jaimal's writing has appeared in ESPN Magazine, The Washington Post, The Chicago Tribune, and many others.

How Jaimal’s troubled state got him into surfboarding and eventually to yoga and meditation Jaimal's realization of the connection between the waves of the water and one’s breath, with breath being similar to the wind of the ocean. Travel and novelty stretch our brain, our heart, and our comfort zone. We all long for happiness, truth, and love. We have our own ways of finding them. But though each path looks unique, all lead to somewhere very similar. The Tibetan Worldview, and how it affected Jaimal. Serenity is honoring one’s emotion, surviving the waves and letting them come through. The practice of Tibetan tradition is about getting used to different kinds of life’s waves and to be accepting of it. ANGER, ANXIETY, and SADNESS from a previous podcast with Suzanne Heyn are also kinds of waves. Feel them, sit in them, and let them run their course so they can pass through when ready. VULNERABILITY as my approach to connect with people. It is the most courageous thing that one can do. What is true courage and how does it differ from bravado? It’s not courage when you try to cover up an insecurity. Learn more about this from Jaimal’s book, The Fear Project. Our bodies are like layers of emotions that we hold in, and whether it’s meditation/yoga/therapy, there are ways to peel those back. There is not a difference between nervousness and excitement, it’s only the stories you tell around it. The benefit of fear and adrenaline. When you feel everything is becoming a routine, remind yourself: What is it that I love to do? What is it that I am passionate about?

For Jaimal Yogis, the path to enlightenment is surfing. Between water and air, between control and surrender, between the tangible and intangible realities of life, the spiritual can be found. Born to a family of seekers, he left home at sixteen to surf in Hawaii and join a monastery—an adventure he chronicled in Saltwater Buddha. Now, in his early twenties, his heart is broken and he's lost his way. Hitting the road again, he lands in a monastery in Dharamsala, where he meets Sonam, a displaced Tibetan. All Our Waves Are Water follows Jaimal's trek from the Himalayas to Indonesia; to a Franciscan Friary in New York City to the dusty streets of Jerusalem; and finally to San Francisco's Ocean Beach. Along his journey, Jaimal prays and surfs; mourning a lost love and seeking something that keeps eluding him, until he ultimately finds what he's been looking for—that the perfect ride may well be the one we are on right now.

Who among us has not been paralyzed by fear? In this episode, award-winning journalist Jaimal Yogis explains why fear so often dominates our lives, what makes it tick, and how we can use fear to our advantage. He shares with us his experiences living in a monastery, overcoming heartbreak, and how we all can emerge triumphant from even the most paralyzing of fear, sadness and loss. Learn how fear evolved in the human brain, how to use the latest neuroscience to transform fear memories. Discover why fear spreads between us and how to counteract fearful "group think," and how to turn fear into a performance enhancer - athletically and at work. A graduate of the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism, Jaimal Yogis is the author of the best-sellers Saltwater Buddha, a coming-of-age memoir about how surfing and the sea helped him transition back to the world after a year in a Zen monastery (now also a documentary film); and The Fear Project, which looks at the neuroscience of fear and courage, using science, mindfulness, and sports to reveal ways in which humans can live more fully. His new book, All Our Waves Are Water: stumbling toward enlightenment and the perfect ride, uses the sea as a metaphor to explore the true self. Jaimal's writing has appeared in ESPN Magazine, The Washington Post, The Chicago Tribune, and many others. He teaches meditation and creative writing at places like Spirit Rock, Kripalu, 1440 Multiversity, and the Writing Pad.   Special Guest: Jaimal Yogis www.jaimalyogis.com   Creator & Host: Brett Larkin http://www.brettlarkin.com/   Sound Engineer: Zach Cooper zmcmusic.tumblr.com   Producer: Benn Mendelson www.sivanaspirit.com www.sivanapodcast.com

(She always did Yoga and meditation daily). Effect on Emotions I think mindfulness has enhanced the good emotions and it's helped me let the bad ones go. Thoughts on Breathing Breathing is my mindfulness practice. The breath is always there. It's something to focus on and it's just so pleasant, just taking a breath and being there with it. It's amazingly rich. Suggested Resources Book: Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind: Informal Talks on Zen Meditation and Practice by Shunryū Suzuki App: Headspace Bullying Story In the surfing world, a lot of people think of surfers is like really peaceful, zen dudes, but it gets pretty tense out in the water sometimes. I actually had a story in Saltwater Buddha about a time when I was surfing in Santa Cruz and it gets really crowded and I was just I  in my intermediate level of Surfing. I got a great wave, I got a barrel when I got inside and that was one of my first waves like that. I was feeling really confident and got a little overconfident and I dropped in front of a guy on my next wave. That's sort of the biggest faux pas in surfing. When you drop in on someone it's dangerous but it's just an etiquette issue. A lot of beginners don't realize this and if you break rank essentially at one of these uber competitive surf breaks like in films like North Shore and Point Break you know you can really invoke wrath. I did that and and the guy was a young local guy who just started spewing all kinds of invectives and every four letter word and then some. This was for maybe 45 minutes. This guy wouldn't let it go and I kept thinking, should I get out of the water or should I apologize. I ignored him and eventually I was pretty seething inside. It was mindfulness that really brought me out of it. There was a point where he was shouting all these homophobic obscenities at me. I remember seeing his neck bulging and his face really red and I thought the fact that he was really suffering in this situation. He was the one who had no control over his anger. I was suffering too. It was sort of a mutual situation. That little thought of compassion switched me out of it.  I wasn't quite as offended. I almost felt a little bit of compassion to this guy who clearly had no anger management skills. I breathed and I remembered a Zen story where a Samurai is seeking an advice from a Zen master and he goes to the Zen master and he says, Sensei, teach me the difference between heaven and hell. The Zen master says why would I teach a cretin like you? You're an uneducated Samurai. This is a high teaching. I wouldn't stoop to that level. This is a very respected Samurai.He picks up the sword and he's about to slice the the monk and just as his eyes are bulging and he's about to drop his sword, the Zen master says, wait. He says, that right there is hell. The Samurai thinks about it and he realizes that he's been given this great teaching and he realizes that his emotions got the best of him. Then he bows to the Zen master. (Hear more on the podcast interview).
