This episode of The Kriya Yoga Podcast is an excerpt from a talk given by Kriya Yoga Teacher Ryan Kurczak during the 2025 Kriya Yoga Online Solstice Retreat. The Discussion includes: Supportive Techniques from Chapter I: Sutras I.33–I.39 Patanjali offers auxiliary methods to stabilize the mind in Sutras I.33–I.39, forming a meditative ladder: I.33 – Cultivating attitudes of friendliness (toward the happy), compassion (toward the suffering), joy (toward the virtuous), and equanimity (toward the non-virtuous). I.34 – Focusing on the exhalation and natural pause of breath. I.35 – Meditating on subtle sensory experiences (such as inner energy or warmth). I.36 – Contemplating a state free from sorrow and full of inner light. I.37 – Meditating on the consciousness of one who is spiritually free. I.38 – Contemplating dream and deep sleep states. I.39 – Meditating on any object suitable to one's disposition. These are not arbitrary suggestions, but a progressive structure. For example, I.33 helps remove emotional and psychological obstacles; I.34–I.35 deepen bodily and energetic awareness; I.36–I.37 open the door to spiritual radiance and guru consciousness; I.38–I.39 reflect the ultimate flexibility and maturity of the practitioner. The Goal of Samadhi and Spiritual Evolution The culmination of sustained meditative practice is Samadhi, described not as an escape from the world but as union with reality. The deeper forms of samadhi signify the dissolution of ego and personal identity, allowing pure consciousness to shine through. As described in Sutra IV.33–IV.34, transformation is a transmutation of form, as the field of consciousness evolves from gross (human) to subtle (divine). This spiritual evolution requires the practitioner to surrender personal likes, dislikes, and egoic narratives—attaining Vairagya (detachment) and Abhyasa (consistent practice), referenced in Sutra I.12. -

In this episode we explore the concepts of the inward and outward facing paths. They are presented as different approaches in various traditions that, if pursued to their core, eventually arrive at a direct experience of a unified life. • Includes a guided meditation that extends the ancient neti neti practice of excluding all concepts of what you conceive yourself to be, and then re-including all so-called outer experience, thereby seeing that all is awareness and not separate from your true self. Short phrases to help you get a handle on the inward and outward facing paths: Nothing you can name or conceive of is awareness. Nothing you could name or conceive of is not awareness. Meditating with your eyes closed and looking within at awareness, and meditating with your eyes open and looking at the world as awareness. “Wisdom tells me I am nothing. Love tells me I am everything. And between the two my life flows.” ― Nisargadatta Maharaj The song Jonathan mentioned in this episode is “Impermanence” by John Astin: https://music.apple.com/us/song/impermanence/72793994 Don't forget to subscribe for more ingenious ways to tap into the ever-present stillness and joy of our true nature.

Meditating on the Lord Jesus Christ is a high privilege of the Christian. It strengthens his faith, deepens his love, and calibrates his hope. The Lord Jesus Christ is the One in whom we, by the power of the Spirit, see the glory of the Father. This week we take time not to pursue another aspect of Christian living, or another profile from church history, but to think about 'God the only Son, who is at the Father's side' (John 1:18).

Meditation isn't about mastering information—it's about meeting with God. In this week's message, Pastor Nathan unpacks what it means to meditate on God's Word—not to prove a point or gain head knowledge, but to be with the Living Word and be transformed.
By Carl Kinsella - In a chaotic world filled with distractions, biblical meditation offers peace and purpose by focusing on God's Word. Christian meditation fills the mind with virtues like truth, nobility, and purity, transforming our lives to reflect God's will.
In this episode, I walk you through six powerful Bible passages that create a roadmap for Christian wellness. These passages can guide you toward healing, whether you're dealing with chronic fatigue, whether you need autoimmune healing, or whether you simply want to align your health journey with your faith. Together, we'll explore:
Information has been so overrated,Since I was a little child,But now that I know that there's much more to life,I will spend more time in the wild. ☉Well, I went on a rant today! Whew! What can I say? What I didn't even get to is that this Jupiter square Saturn aspect, the “crisis in action,” had it's first pass last August with Saturn retrograde, the second pass on Christmas with Jupiter retrograde, and now the third pass with both planets direct. An interesting note regarding this square, which has to do with breaking free from past security structures in order to express a new, elevated version of ourselves, had the first two passes in the mutable signs of Pisces and Gemini. This third and final pass is occurring in the cardinal signs of Aries and Cancer. The mutable signs have more to do with listening, taking in, and changing ourselves as a result of integrating the new information, needs, desires, and impulses. Now, having the final pass in the cardinal signs, it's time to make choices and take action particularly around surrendering our past ways, habits, and limitations in order to open ourselves to the new possibilities that will be presenting themselves through the remainder of this year and into next year.The age-old axiom for whenever Jupiter and Saturn contact each other is “limited expansion.” It is a time of cautious, careful planning rather than plunging, risking, and just “doing it.” It's almost like you don't want to start setting the stage for Scene Two before you've cleared the stage from Scene One! Know what I mean? This is more about carefully selecting the people, places, things, and activities that support the new you and retiring what doesn't (with gratitude if possible!). Meditating in deep stillness, doing ceremony, and calling upon your higher self and Spirit for guidance, you may find it necessary to let go of some cherished people, places, or activities/habits. On the other hand, if you are unconscious of your own true nature, needs, and soul desires, you may find people, places, things, or activities leaving you or being taken away. In either case, knowing that life is always in complete support of your evolution will help lessen any feelings of loss, betrayal, abandonment, or victim consciousness. May you find peace through this transition!Born to be Wild! https://youtu.be/egMWlD3fLJ8?si=4GtSqs8BTXH6MFtU Book a reading with Kaypacha! https://newparadigmastrology.com/kaypachas-readings/So Much Love,Kaypacha

I just came back from my first time ever in Miami with my fiancé, and I thought why not re-air my thrilling conversation with Miami based writer Rochelle Weinstein. This aired about two years ago, and I definitely am going to have Rochelle back on to discuss her new novel We Are Made of Stars! We have an exciting conversation about what type of literature Rochelle writes which I coin "Romantic Realism." Rochelle provides so much literary insight in this episode, and she first explains why after giving birth to twin boys she knew she needed to become a writer! Then, I ask her why Miami holds such a special place in her literature and upbringing. For Rochelle, Miami is not just a literary setting, it's an atmosphere for her reader.

Lama Zopa Rinpoche discusses the seven attributes of a perfect human body and clarifies the points relating to caste and gender. He also discusses the eight ripening aspects that Lama Tsongkhapa emphasized in the Hymns of the Experience of the Path to Enlightenment.Rinpoche highlights the preciousness of this perfect human body. He says that it is more precious than the whole sky filled with wish-granting jewels. So, if we don't get to practice Dharma for even a second, this would be a great loss. Thus, we must bear hardships to practice Dharma. If you don't bear the hardships, you cannot practice Dharma, and then you will become lazy and waste your precious human body.Rinpoche reminds us that we experience hardships because we are in samsara. Our body and mind came from karma and delusion, so they are in the nature of suffering. If we don't practice Dharma because of the hardships, then we'll be in samsara forever. We'll never get free from the oceans of samsaric suffering.The duration of this perfect human rebirth is very short, and it can stop at any moment. Therefore, we need to develop our mind in the stages of the path to enlightenment.Rinpoche gives a clear description of how to meditate on the lamrim through daily meditations of the lower capable being. He stresses that it's important to meditate on several points (guru devotion, perfect human rebirth, impermanence-death, renunciation), as if you only meditate on one aspect throughout your life, you may not achieve even that realization. He also stresses that bodhicitta can only be attained after realizing renunciation.From April 10 to May 10, 2004, Lama Zopa Rinpoche gave extensive teachings during the Mahamudra Retreat at Buddha House in Australia. While the retreat focused on Mahamudra, Rinpoche also taught on a wide range of Lamrim topics. This retreat marked the beginning of a series of month-long retreats in Australia.

The text is a reclaiming of the ancient theological meditation form, the hexameron, to consider the climate crisis and mass extinction. Meditating on a day of creation in each chapter, she tells us about the insights each day of creation has for the Anthropocene like contemplative practices in the First Day and the move from a "Kingdom" to a "Kindom" of species in the Fifth Day. This episode and the next will be on religion and ecology, a fitting focus on the topic at a time of a new Pope!

5/25/25 Upcoming Memory Engine-The "Heart Palace Flow" Daily Affirmation: Cutting Through StressThe goal of this mnemonic is to instantly activate a state of calm and love, like a "hot knife through butter," by firing up your internal "Heart Palace" engine. We want this to be a positive, active, and empowering process.This affirmation is positive, action-oriented, and clearly states the desired outcome.This word is simple, powerful, and embodies the positive movement we're aiming for.L - Luminous: See a bright, glowing presence.O - Open: Feel your heart center expanding.V - Vibrant: Experience lively, positive energy.E - Expand: Visualize feelings spreading outwards.W - Warmth: Feel comforting, soothing heat.I - Inner Peace: Sense deep tranquility.N - Nourish: Feel revitalized and supported.S - Serene: Experience a profound state of calm.We'll use the Major System to convert "LOVE WINS" into numbers, which then give us our P.A.O. elements.L (5) V (8) = 58 -> LoVe = LAVaW (sound is like V or a doubled U, for simplicity let's use the standard 'W' as 2, or sometimes 'null' in Major System for words without a consonant sound. For this exercise, let's treat it phonetically as 'V' or 'F' sound when needed, or directly find a word. Given the context, let's just make sure the words fit the number.)N (2) S (0) = 20 -> NoSe = NoseLet's simplify the Major System application here for a more direct, vivid P.A.O. that aligns with the affirmation:Person: Lady Valentine (representing love and warmth)Action: Waving Iridescent Nimbus (a radiant, flowing, protective cloud)Object: Silver Sword (cutting through negativity)Imagine Lady Valentine (P), bathed in a soft, luminous green glow, standing at the entrance of your magnificent Heart Palace. She is gracefully waving an iridescent nimbus (A) that billows outward, gently pushing away any lingering shadows of stress. In her other hand, she wields a shimmering silver sword (O), which, with each gentle pass, cuts through any stress like a hot knife through butter, leaving only smooth, serene space.As she moves, your heart feels increasingly open, a vibrant energy bubbles up, and that feeling begins to expand outward from your chest. A profound warmth spreads, ushering in an inner peace that nourishes every cell of your being, leaving you utterly serene.Morning Activation: First thing in the morning, or before a potentially stressful event, close your eyes (or soften your gaze).Affirmation & Visualization: Slowly repeat: "I activate my Heart Palace, flowing with love, melting all stress."Engage the Mnemonic & P.A.O.: Instantly bring to mind Lady Valentine at your Heart Palace, waving her iridescent nimbus, and cutting through stress with her silver sword.Feel the Flow (The "LOVE WINS" Modes): As you visualize, actively engage your senses and emotions:Breathe into it: Continue to breathe deeply and smoothly, allowing the sensations and imagery to deepen the experience.This active, multi-sensory engagement, fueled by your P.A.O. and mnemonic, trains your brain to rapidly access this coherent state, turning an affirmation into an embodied experience.Here are the top-tier options for this specific deep dive, Grandpa Bill:#HeartPalace,#DailyAffirmation,#MemoryEngines,#MagneticMemoryMethod,#GrandpaBillPodcast.#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#HeartBrainCoherence,#StressRelease,#InnerPeace,#VividImagery,#PAOMnemonic,#MajorSystem,#MindBodySpirit,#HolisticWellness,#PositiveMovement,#MentalClarity,#EmotionalRegulation,#SelfCare,#LOVEWINS,The Core Affirmation: "I activate my Heart Palace, flowing with love, melting all stress."The Mnemonic Word for the Affirmation: "LOVE WINS"P.A.O.

We need to stop filling our minds with the world and make room for healthy pathways. We can influence our perspectives when we follow Jesus with our habits. Our lives are moving in the direction of our strongest thoughts, so which thoughts will you put in the lead? When you face a mind war, the ways you train your brain will make the difference.Subscribe to receive our latest videos!Website: https://www.sunvalleycc.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sunvalleycc/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sunvalleycc/Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sunvalleyccTo support Sun Valley and help us continue to reach people all around the world click here: https://www.sunvalleycc.com/givingGod loves you no matter who you are, what you've done, or what's been done to you.

It can often feel like healing should look a certain way. Meditating, journaling, saying your affirmations—these are surely all factors of the healing process. But what happens when you know you need to dig deeper, but can’t figure out how? Sometimes healing isn’t as aesthetic or straightforward as it looks online. It’s messy. It’s nonlinear. It’s showing up to do the hard work when you’d rather keep it light. Today I'm excited to have Devi Brown joining us again. Devi is a Well-Being Educator, Multidisciplinary Healer, author, and Host of the Deeply Well podcast. As the founder of Devi Brown Well-Being, she has dedicated her career to helping leaders, artists, and athletes navigate healing, self-discovery, and personal growth through mindfulness, spiritual psychology, and holistic wellness practices. In today’s conversation, we explore this deeply introspective and thorough guide to emotions and values, cultivating self-connection, and unlocking one’s highest potential to build a stronger foundation rooted in holistic healing. About the Podcast The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.
