In this rich and heartfelt conversation, Jai sits down with Harish Bharadwaj—yoga teacher, Vedic scholar, and lifelong spiritual practitioner—for a deep dive into the foundations of yogic philosophy. Together, they explore the Four Paths of Yoga—Bhakti (devotion), Karma (selfless action), Jnana (wisdom), and Raja (meditative discipline)—and how each offers a doorway into spiritual maturity and personal evolution.Harish also shares practical insights into karma as a force that shapes our lives through intention, action, and consequence, and how conscious living helps transform karmic patterns. The episode culminates with a discussion of Patanjali's 8 Limbs of Yoga, illuminating how these timeless principles guide us toward liberation, ethical living, and deep inner stillness.This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to connect more fully with the heart of yoga—not just as physical exercise, but as a complete spiritual path rooted in ancient wisdom and personal responsibility.In this episode, you'll learn:The essential distinctions between the four main yogic pathsHow karma operates in daily life, and how to shift from unconscious reaction to conscious actionWhy the 8 Limbs of Yoga remain relevant in today's fast-paced worldReflections from both Jai and Harish on integrating philosophy with modern practiceWhether you're new to yogic philosophy or looking to deepen your current practice, this conversation offers clarity, context, and heartfelt guidance.Jai's Instagram:@theartofagingmindfully@jaiyogashalaTO SUPPORT THE ART OF AGING MINDFULNESS PODCAST:patreon.com/jaisugrimHealth and Longevity Coaching with Jai:https://theartofagingmindfully.com/To Train with Jai in "Yoga for Longevity Classes:"https://jaiyogashala.com/daily-schedule/If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review and share it with others who might benefit from these insights!

Today: In 1979, Nurse With Wound entered a UK recording studio with no musical training whatsoever and created an album called Chance Meeting on a Dissecting Table of a Sewing Machine and an Umbrella, which promptly was awarded a rating of five question marks from Sounds Magazine.

In our Vivekananda's Triangle of Love & How Jñāna = Bhakti we introduced Swamiji's signature idea: the three things that make love worthy of the name as well as the idea that Bhakti, Devotion and Jñāna, Philosophy are really ultimately the same thing. This is the core theme of the book, I think. Now, in this lecture, we expound on those two ideas by reading the next lecture, "The God of Love is His Own Proof" which really drives home the point of how Jñāna and Bhakti are two ways of describing the same thing. We quote two verses from the Bhāgavat Gīta, Chapter 7 to substantiate the claim. Finally, we "special treat" in this class is a reading of an excerpt from "The Life of Swami Vivekananda by His Eastern and Western Disciples" which gives us a rare, profound and moving glimpse into Swami Vivekananda's own inner struggle with the Bhakti and Jnana aspects of his personality! You'll find a playlist of classes from our series on "Swami Vivekananda's Bhakti Yoga here: https://www.patreon.com/collection/728434 Lectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and Friday 10am PST and again Friday at 6pm PST.Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrMSupport the show

Send us a textBhakti yoga involves transcending the forms we worship to reach the formless divine essence; persistent duality becomes an obstacle when it creates a new ego identity based on being "the devotee."• The ultimate goal is to dissolve the separation between worshipper and worshipped• Emotional highs in devotional practices can be beautiful but shouldn't become attachments• Fear of ego death prevents many devotees from complete surrender• Even identifying as a "servant of God" can become a subtle form of spiritual pride• True surrender is not emotional declaration but dissolution of identity• Devotional activities without self-inquiry become distractions• Bhakti without knowledge (jnana) leads to stagnation• True devotion matures from "I love God" to "What am I?" to "I am this formless awareness"• Jnana and bhakti are two wings of the same bird - both essential for spiritual freedomJoin me on Discord to continue the discussion.

Trechos do livro “A Manual Of Self Unfoldment”, de Swami Chinmayananda.Balakrishna Menon ou Swami Chinmayananda Saraswati (1916 - 1993), foi jornalista, professor e líder espiritual hindu.Nasceu Ernakulam na Índia, filho mais velho de um proeminente juiz. Após completar sua escolaridade formal, foi estudar jornalismo e pós-graduação em literatura e direito. Se formou na Lucknow University e até então, sentia que poderia influenciar o movimento de reforma política, econômica e social por meio do jornalismo.No verão de 1936, ele visitou o sábio Ramana Maharshi, por seus relatos pessoais posteriores, quando Ramana Maharshi olhou para ele, Chinmayananda experimentou uma emoção de iluminação espiritual que, na época, ele prontamente racionalizou como sendo mero “hipnotismo”.Enquanto trabalhava como jornalista Chinmayananda viajou para o Ashram de Sivananda em Rishikesh com o propósito de escrever uma exposição dos sadhus, mas desenvolveu um interesse no caminho da espiritualidade.Em 25 de fevereiro de 1949, o dia sagrado de Mahashivratri, Balan foi iniciado em sannyasa por Sivananda, que lhe deu o nome de Swami Chinmayananda, ou “Bem-Aventurança da Pura Consciência”. Com a bênção de Sivananda, Chinmayananda procurou um dos maiores mestres vedânticos de seu tempo, Tapovan Maharaj, e dedicou os próximos anos de sua vida a um estudo intensivo do Vedanta sob sua tutela.Swami Chinmayananda passou quarenta anos de sua vida ajudando os outros, abriu Ashrams, escolas, hospitais, asilos e clínicas em todo o mundo. E fundou a Chinmaya Mission, ensinando a espiritualidade como arte de viver.Chinmayananda escreveu 95 publicações, incluindo comentários sobre os principais Upanishads e o Bhagavad Gita. Através de Jnana yoga ele enfazitava o equilíbrio entre coração e mente, evidenciando o serviço desinteressado, estudo e meditação como pedras basilares para a prática espiritual.

Bhagawan Shiva is Shashi-shekhara. Shashi is a name given for the moon . The meaning of the word is one who has a rabbit like mark . Moon shows a rabbit like mark when seen from earth so it is given that name . Shekara means crest or crest ornament. One who wears moon as an ornament in his crest is called shashishekara . Moon is the presiding deity of the mind.  The crescent moon is symbolic of our mind being steady. The moon goes through waxing and waning but the moon on Lord Shiva's jata does not go through any modification. It remains steady. Vedanta says Manaso Devataa Chandramaaha. In the Vedas, Shiva Sankalpa sukta's each mantra ends with the line – Tan me manah Shiva-sankalpam astu. May my mind have an auspicious resolve. By the grace of Lord Shiva, may our mind have positive and auspicious resolve. May we not fall for negative thinking. May we continue to lift ourselves higher and higher. Moon also is a symbol of coolness. As seekers, we have to keep our mind cool and calm. Though Lord Shiva is known for anger or Rudra Tandava, yet he is calm, composed and equanimous. He is a yogi whose mind is very calm. Bhagawad Geeta says - Prashanta manasam hyenam, yoginam sukham uttamam. The calm mind of a yogi experiences Supreme Bliss. Shivagamas say that chandra is the symbol of Jnana or ultimate wisdom. Moon is also symbol of yogic bliss. Lord Shiva is the greatest yogi so he bears moon ( divine bliss ) on his crest. The scriptures describing yoga shaastra also compares moon with unmani sthithi (thoughtless state beyond the mind). Advaita speaks of it as Amani bhaava(state of Consciousness, beyond thoughts).Comment “Chandra” to get the story of how moon came to adorn Bhagawan's crest and why He is called Chandrashekhara #shiva #chandra #moon #mahadev #yogalife #yogic #bliss#advaita #mindset #mind #mindfulness #spirituality

Ganga means one who speeds up our journey or evolution and who unites us with the Goal OF life. She flows from Brahmaji's kalash to Vishnu Bhagwan's foot during the Vamana Avatar and from there to the jata of Shivji before flowing on the earth due to Bhagirath's penance. So she is symbolic of Jnana, Bhakti and Seva.She is held by Bhagawan Shiva in his jata symbolic of humbling of her pride and power of Shiva ji's tapasya. Another symbolism is Gangaji is symbolic of Brahmavidya or the knowledge of the Self which is very subtle & difficult to understand. Bhagawan Shiva is the Adi Guru who has realised this knowledge through tapas or austerity and brings this knowledge to the disciples in small understandable doses.

Is it possible that both the Jnana and Bhakti paths are correct in their understanding of “enlightenment“? That some people are naturally inclined towards devotion and due to conditioning and past samskaras some are naturally inclined to the jnana path?

Sometimes describing what something is relies more on describing what it is not. In Vedanta and Jnana yoga neti neti, not this, not that, is part of their meditative practice which helps to discard attachment to any number of places where a practitioner can get stuck thinking they've finally arrived, when indeed there is more ground to cover.

Venkatesh describes how his upbringing in a religious Hindu family led initially to spiritual questioning about the nature of God and then to the practice of Transcendental Meditation.  Venkatesh discusses how he came to give up his successful career in business to follow a path of self-knowledge.He outlines the rigorous daily programme of work and study at the Sivananda ashram, where he followed a progressive path of both Jnana and Bhakti yoga. A spontaneous decision to visit the Ramana Maharshi ashram at Tiruvannamalai, resulted in him falling in love with Ramana's teaching and seeing that all the sages were saying the same thing – that this inward journey is the most important purpose of life.We go on to discuss a number of aspects of Ramana's teaching, including the basic ‘who am I' practice, how to overcome the frustration of thoughts that keep flooding back, and how to deal with blank states. He explains the importance of questioning, and the connection between questioning, openness and not-knowing. Supported by his faith in the teaching and a strong desire for liberation he describes how he discovered the unchanging, inner joy of living as pure consciousness, ‘an instrument in the hands of the Lord'.For more information on the Ramana Maharshi Centre for Learning, including access to Venkatesh's talks, visit their website http://www.ramanacentre.com/Support the showIf you are interested in exploring spiritual awakening, we invite you to register for our free 7 Days to Awakening self study course, created by Lisa Natoli and Bill Free.Learn more about the The Awareness Podcast and access show notes for every episode at: www.teachersofgod.org/podcastLearn more about The Teachers of God Foundation at: www.teachersofgod.org Original music by Omashar

16 Jnana Siddha Yoginis Yoga Nidra In this Feminine Empowered Yoga Nidra we invite the 16 Jnana Siddha Yoginis into our sphere of meditation. These Yoginis are from the Shaiva Tantra Tradition of Northern India where they were a popular practice over a 1000 years ago in the Swat Valley, high in their Himalayan Mountains of Kashmir. The Yoginis are messengers of a transitional primal power, the goddess, fierce compassion for change and upliftment and actually beyond the grasp of the conceptual mind. They are related to the elements and all the guises of our being. The Jnana Siddha Yoginis Practice help us recognize our own energies to push us through our blockages, samsara's, patterns, or issues. They are a source of our ability to love ourselves more deeply and feel the preciousness of our lives.

Welcome to Episode #60 of the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast! My conversation with Lianik Borlasca, a yoga teacher from El Salvador, was multidimensional as we took a deep dive into the spiritual understanding of Jnana and Raja yoga. I hope that this conversation made you curious about the paradigms that exist around yoga, and what we can do to shift them. If you're looking to tune into a podcast episode that is all about all the dimensions of yoga then this is the conversation for you. Tell me more about Lianik Borlasca Lianik Borlasca is a yoga teacher from El Salvador. She is the yoga studio owner of Peace & Yoga in San Salvador. Her passion has been Jñāna and Raja Yoga and the study of the self as the ultimate knowledge. She is also a teacher of Qi Gong, Tai Chi, and is a Reiki Master. Her goal is to integrate everything to teach yoga from different perspectives, to break paradigms around the practice. She has organized International Yoga Day in El Salvador for many years, and has introduced yoga to the public in El Salvador by teaching yoga on several different TV channels in El Salvador. What to expect in the Yoga In El Salvador episode of the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast During the course of our conversation, Lianik wove in so many insights about the multidimensionality of the practice of yoga. She defined Raja Yoga and Jnana Yoga and then expanded upon them, why they are the paths of yoga she has been drawn to. She explained how the physical dimension of yoga, is the most limited of the human being. That's why the asana practice is so accessible to everyone, and why it's only the first layer of yoga. It's only one of the branches— there are seven others! Lianik shared beautiful thoughts around all the dimensions around the practice and path of yoga.

“God instructs the heart, not by ideas, but by pains and contradictions.” –18th century French Mystic Jean Pierre De Caussade / It's gonna be so great when we finally see God in everyone's heart / when the mind is conquered, the Supersoul is already reached / Dr. Pain makes house calls for our growth / mysticism (yoga) & detachment (from Jnana) are meant to bring us to the lotus feet of Krishna / to the degree that we let go of resentment and anxiety and practice bhakti, it lightens the load / the point of Jnana & yoga is to remember Narayana at the end / we're the double dropped dented cans  SB 4.23.13-14
