This episode of The Kriya Yoga Podcast, is an excerpt from class 5 of the Primordial Powers of Creation Audio Course for Kriya Yoga Online Patreon Members. All 6 sections will be available in the Collections section on Patreon by the end of 2024. See: https://www.patreon.com/kriyayoga/collections "Many people imagine that they can skip to higher stages of spiritual awareness without attending to lower stages. This is not true, and it is likely why so many spiritually inclined people, while well-meaning, don't actually possess any authentic spiritual experience. Their minds may be filled with accurate descriptions of spiritual experience, from listening to their spiritual teachers or reading helpful spiritual texts, but they have not had the direct experience themselves. If they were to follow the steps, without trying to skip ahead or above their current capacity, they would find a beautiful path ready to nourish their mind and consciousness with uplifting and enlightening realizations.  These realizations would clarify their field of awareness, and they would live and behave in an enlightened manner naturally, without force or strain. The purpose of this class series is to give you the map in the form of accurate knowledge about the process, and also encourage you to follow the procedures in the order that will result in actual spiritual liberation." - If you would like to participate in future live sessions consider becoming a member of The Kriya Yoga Online Patreon Community or applying to the Kriya Yoga Apprenticeship Program.

Dec 19, 2001 San Diego To be continued in Part 2 Note - The lecture starts abruptly

With aging, we get lazy to move our bodies and eat a healthy diet...Because we lose our motivation and the drive to do something.Our sex drive goes down and so do our passions…1. If we build up more testosterone through Cardio training for instance: interval training and supplements like Maca, Tongkat Ali, ​​Shilajit, Ashwagandha, and Ginseng (precaution, most Ginseng supplements are fake) we can slow down the aging …2. We act like a young person instead of an aged person.The formula is to live in the here and now.Otherwise, we waste our time.Time is the greatest value in our life. Nobody can buy time.The best will be if we change from our passions to surrender our lives to the lord through yoga, meditation, prayer, or selfless service.From the Hindu religion, we can learn: In the Hindu philosophy exists three gunas: Tamas (tendency toward lethargy and rigidity), Rajas (tendency toward ambition and activity), and Sattva (tendency toward selfless service, surrender our life to the Lord)When we age. our vasanas (habits) change from passion (rajas) to laziness (tamas).Truthful aging is if we change from our passions Rajas to Sattva.My Video: Aging means nothing else than laziness.  https://youtu.be/kMOgcMpRbd0My Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast4/Aging-means-nothing-else-then-laziness.mp3 

In this episode, Myra and Ericka dive deep into the roadblocks many Ayurveda students face to become effective Ayurvedic professionals. Drawing from years of experience training hundreds of students in Ayurvedic Health Advisor and Counselor programs, they share valuable insights on:Why linear thinking is a pitfall, and how students can embrace a more holistic approach in Ayurveda.Moving beyond data accumulation to develop intuition and apply Ayurvedic principles effectively.The inefficiency of adopting a traditional "doctor-patient" model in Ayurvedic practice to prevent or reverse disease.Whether formal certification from a non-governing accreditation board is necessary to practice Ayurveda, and how students should approach their training choices.Even if you're new to Ayurveda, Myra and Ericka's conversation, rooted in their counseling experience, offers fresh perspectives on the holistic approach to healing and removing root causes of disease for symptom-free living.Enrollment for our 200-hour Ayurvedic Health Advisor and 600-hour Ayurvedic Health Counselor trainings are open.If leading others on the path of healing feels like your dharma, we invite you to book a free 1-1 call with a member of our team so that you can determine if one of our trainings is the right fit for you.Book a free 1-1 call here.Thanks for tuning in to the Everyday Ayurveda and Yoga at Hale Pule podcast.

Send us a textIn this week's episode of 'The Nourished Nervous System', I get into some of the basics of polyvagal theory, its origins, and the significance of anchoring the nervous system in the ventral vagal state for optimal health and resilience. The episode covers the evolution of the nervous system, the roles of dorsal vagal, sympathetic, and ventral vagal systems, and illustrates how these states correspond to traditional Ayurvedic concepts of Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. Listeners are introduced to the 'vagal brake' and the importance of recognizing and collecting 'glimmers'—moments of joy and safety. I also share  personal experiences and practical tips, including a guided self-massage practice (Abhyanga), to help listeners ground their nervous systems, particularly during times of heightened Vata in autumn.In This Episode:Understanding Polyvagal TheoryThe Evolution of the Nervous SystemThe Vagus Nerve and Its FunctionsThe Vagal Brake and Its ImportanceAnchoring the Nervous SystemPracticing Safety and RegulationNoticing GlimmersThe Power of Abhyanga MassageRelated Episodes:Episode 53 - The Window of ResilienceMy resources:Deep Rest MeditationNourished For Resilience Workbook Book a free Exploratory CallFind me at www.nourishednervoussystem.comand @nourishednervoussytem on Instagram

In this episode of The Healthy Peaceful Podcast, I am joined by Dr. Marc Edwards, an adjunct professor at Maharishi International University (MIU), teaching in its graduate level Ayurveda programs.

In this meditation we examine the Gunas. These are the energetic forces of the Universe and all that is within it. The word Guna means strand or string but also means quality. When these strands of energy and their qualities weave together we can see that they are present in all things - within us, within objects, nature, situations, attitudes... Understanding the Gunas gives us another layer of understanding of our energetic body, our Subtle Body. The three Gunas are Tamas (inertia), Rajas (activity) and Sattva (consciousness). When we braid these together we have a balanced life but sometimes one is more dominant than the others. Being able to identify when we are out of balance can bring awareness to our energetic body and help us live a more harmonious life. Much love Rosanne xx

Sattva, Rajas and Tamas are the primordial forces that reveal your embodied state of consciousness. These cosmic forces of creation are energies that permeate all levels of our being. Knowledge of their influence helps you to take action to harness their strengths so that you can empower your meditation practice and yogic lifestyle. By cultivating Sattva, and even just becoming aware of the Gunas, you increase your capacity to know and experience clearer states of consciousness and inner well-being.

Let's explore three qualities of energy within us known as the three gunas – Tamas, Rajas, and Sattva. These qualities represent different aspects of our being, influencing our thoughts, emotions, and actions. Tamas, the quality of inertia and darkness. Rajas, the quality of activity and restlessness. Sattva, the quality of harmony and balance. Lie down comfortably for this practice, cover yourself and simply close your eyes. Let's begin!

Send us a Text Message.In this special anniversary episode of 'The Nourished Nervous System,'  I celebrate a year of growth and change, both personally and through the podcast. I delve into the concept of the window of resilience—how much stress we can handle before becoming overwhelmed—and connect it with Ayurvedic principles. Ayurveda is a lens to look at life through, so this episode talks about balancing life's stressors and how different Ayurvedic constitutions (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) affect our stress responses. The episode is rich with personal stories and practical tips like deep breathing, getting outside, and even dancing to Prince, making it both informative and relatable. Resources for deeper exploration, including a workbook and an Ayurvedic Nervous System type quiz, are also offered. Whether you're dealing with daily stress, chronic illness, or just curious about resilience, this episode provides actionable insights and a sense of community.In this Episode: Exploring the Window of Tolerance Understanding Stress and Resilience Ayurvedic Perspectives on ResiliencePersonal Experiences and Practical Tips Final Thoughts and ResourcesResources:Ayurvedic Nervous System Type QuizRelated Episodes:Episode 26 - Nourished for ResilienceEpisode 51 - Nourish Your Mind:  Ayurveda, Breath Work and Seasonal Self Care Episode 3 - What the Vata?!Episode 8 - Oh Pitta, You're Hot!

18th Chapter: verse 40, 41, 42, 43, 4440th verse: “Everyone in this world is dictated by these three gunas.”Lord Krishna divides human traits in three areas – sattvic, rajasik and tamasik.A sattvic person is calm and serene even in difficult situations. A rajasik person is swayed by his circumstances. A tamasik person is lazy, confused and deluded.The sattvic person has emotional equanimity. He is not elated in success and he is not devastated in failure. The rajasic person is swayed by success and failure.Lord Krishna discusses these traits because he wants us to combine action with mental equilibrium. Understanding that everything in this world is transient – success, failure, heath and so on – we should develop an attitude that helps us remain in perfect equanimity of mind even in difficult situations.The 41st verse onwards, Lord Krishna discusses four groups of people based on people's innate spiritual qualities (gunas). These four groups are: (1) Brahmana (2) Kshatriya (3) Vaishya (4) Sudra.In Hindu tradition, there were also four stages of human life and four values which guide human life.The four stages of human life are Brahmacharya (student), Grhastha (householder), Vanaprastha (forest hermitage) and Sannyasa (renunciate). Manu Smriti says that when one sees the face of his grandchild, when his face begins to wrinkle and when his hair begins to turn grey, he should retire to a life of hermitage.The four values that guide human life are dharma, artha, kama, and moksha. Kama represents our desires, what we want to achieve. Artha represents the means to achieve those goals. Dharma represents a set of moral disciplines that guide and regulate our pursuit of artha and kama. Moksha represents the highest value in human existence and means liberation from the bondage of samsara.42nd verse: “Who is a brahmana? Lord Krishna lists the following qualities: Shama (control of mind), dama (control of the senses), Tapah (austerities for a higher purpose), saucha (mental and physical purity), kshantih (forbearance), uprightness, jnanam (natural inclination for knowledge), vijnanam (realization), astikyam (belief in the law of karma and doctrine of reincarnation).43rd verse: “Who is a Kshatriya? Lord Krishna lists the following qualities: ambition for power, boldness, fortitude, dexterity, not running away from battle, generosity, assertion of freedom.”44th verse: “Who is a Vaishya? Lord Krishna lists the following duties: agriculture, cattle rearing and trade – an inclination to do business and acquire wealth.” In the midst of earning wealth, the Vaishya may engage in higher duties such as charity. These duties are based on the social circumstances that prevailed when Gita was written.44th verse: “Who is a Sudra? Lord Krishna lists the following duties: not interested in higher values, want to do simple service.”Lord Krishna lists these four groups to represent four levels of human evolution. We can always climb up the ladder, acquire sattvic qualities, and become a Brahmana.Shankaracharya defines Brahmana as one who has a dominance of Sattva-guna and in whom Rajo guna is secondary.Shankaracharya defines Kshatriya as one who has a dominance of Rajo-guna, and in whom sattva-guna is secondary.Shankaracharya defines Vaishya as one who has a dominance of Rajo-guna, and in whom tamo-guna is secondary.Shankaracharya defines Sudra as one who has a dominance of Tamo-guna, and in whom Rajo-guna is secondary.Highest spiritual evolution happens when we transcend the three gunas. Such a person is called Guṇātita. One has to be fully established in sattva guna to transcend the three gunas.In spiritual life, we are all individual travelers. Just like someone traveling in a train meets other travelers – similarly, it is an accidental meeting with our near and dear ones in this life. Our journey comes to an end when we experience and realize our true identity as the Atman.

Our temperaments are determined by a combination of the three gunas – sattva guna, rajo guna and tamo guna. Sattva guna is the highest and most sublime. It manifests itself as wisdom and serenity. Rajo guna manifests itself as dynamism and ambition. Tamo guna manifests itself as laziness and delusion.Gunas are not visible and cannot be physically verified. We can infer which guna is predominant in a person by observing his external temperament. A sattvic person is calm and serene even in difficult situations. A rajasic person is swayed by his circumstances. A tamasic person is dull and non-responsive., not understanding what is happening around him.The 20th, 21st and 22nd verses discuss the three levels of refinement of knowledge - sattvik, rajasik and tamasic. They discuss how people with these three gunas comprehend different situations.The 20th verse describes the Sattvik nature of knowledge. “That knowledge by which one sees the one supreme reality which is immanent, which is all-pervading, which remains the same without division, which is the indweller in every being, is Sattvik knowledge.”The person endowed with sattvik knowledge sees unity and oneness behind diversity. He sees humanity as one spiritual family. Even when perceiving the differences in the world, he keeps in mind the presence of the divine as the unifying factor everywhere.This was the central theme of Swami Vivekananda's talk in Chicago in 1983 at the Parliament of Religions. He emphasized the spiritual unity and oneness of creation.21st verse: “That knowledge by which one sees everything as different from everything else, by which one sees certain people as eternally good and certain people as eternally bad, is Rajasik knowledge.”The sattvik person also sees the differences, but he understands that the differences are not eternal. They are due to different temperaments driven by the three gunas. Behind them, he sees the unifying divine reality. The rajasik person sees the differences as eternal.Sri Ramakrishna and Jesus Christ were born in two different cultures, spoke different languages, wore different types of dresses and used different parables. But behind these differences, there was unity at the spiritual level. The rajasic person overlooks the unifying principle and focuses on the differences. The sattvik person focuses on the unity. It is a matter of our spiritual evolution.,22nd verse: “There are people who may have a small, petty idea, which may be irrational, but still they believe in that idea as being very great and are attached to it, and they think everyone should accept that idea, even though the idea is tribalistic and not humanistic – the knowledge of such people is Tamasik.”The 23rd, 24th and 25th verses discuss the three levels of refinement of actions - sattvik, rajasik and tamasic. The way we act and perform our responsibilities is also a sign of spiritual growth.Shankaracharya says in his commentaries: “The same divine principle is present in all living beings. It is called Atman. The way the Atman functions could be different from person to person, but the same Atman is present in all, as it is all-pervading. The differences in human emotions and feelings reflects in the way we deal with others.”For example, in the 20th verse of the 17th chapter, Lord Krishna describes the sattvik level of charity. “Charity done with the attitude “It is my duty to help this person”, done in the right manner without any expectation of return, given to someone who is in need of it, who will use it for constructive purpose, and done at the right place and time – such charity is Sattvik.”In the 22nd verse of the 17th chapter, Lord Krishna says: “Charity done at the wrong place, at the wrong time, or to unworthy person or without regard for rules and etiquette – such charity is Tamasik.”23rd verse of 18th chapter: “When we do our actions considering it as our sacred duty, without extreme attachment, without aversion to anyone, without any selfish expectations of benefits – such action is Sattvik.”Actions done without selfish motives and attachment keeps the mind tranquil and become a steppingstone and great help in our spiritual life. Actions done with selfish motives and attachment unsettles our mind and emotional system and take us backward in spiritual life.24th verse: “Actions that are done with selfish desire, and which are done with strain to the mental system, are Rajasik.”Such actions may give us empirical success, but they are accompanied by agony and anxiety. Workaholics are an example as they perform their actions with lot of calculations and expectations.25th verse: “People who are reckless and ruthless, who do not worry about consequences, who are slaves of their impulses, who do not worry about loss of money or resources, who do not worry about whether their actions bring harm to others, who want to finish the action at any cost – their actions are tamasik.”

The digestion of food and the digestion of life are intimately connected. If we're consuming food and activities that don't have prana or life force, the flow of our energy decreases. For example, if we consume heavily processed food regularly, it will affect our digestion and our mental capacity for life.
