Texto “Śrī Rāmaṇa Vācana Sāram” de Sivaprakasam Pillai. Bhagavan Sri Râmana Mahârshi (1879 - 1950), foi um mestre de Advaita Vedanta e famoso santo do sul da Índia, considerado um dos maiores sábios de todos os tempos. Sivaprakasam Pillai foi um dos intelectuais entre os discípulos de Ramana Maharshi. Ele havia cursado filosofia na universidade e já havia refletido sobre os mistérios do Ser. Em 1900, seu trabalho o levou a Tiruvannamalai, onde ele ouviu falar do jovem Swami na Colina. Ele ficou tão cativado na primeira visita que se tornou um devoto. Pergunta de Sivaprakasam Pillai: Swami, quem sou eu? E como a salvação pode ser alcançada? Resposta de Bhagavan (Ramana Maharshi): Por meio da incessante investigação interior “Quem sou eu?” você conhecerá a si mesmo e assim alcançará a salvação. S: Quem sou eu? B: O verdadeiro eu, ou o Ser, não é o corpo, nem nenhum dos cinco sentidos, nem os objetos dos sentidos, nem os órgãos de ação, nem o prana (respiração ou força vital), nem a mente, nem mesmo o estado de sono profundo, onde não há conhecimento destes. S: Se eu não sou nada disso, o que mais eu sou? B: Depois de rejeitar cada um deles e dizer "isso eu não sou", o único que resta é o "eu", e isso é a Consciência. S: Qual é a natureza dessa Consciência? B: É Sat-Chit-Ananda (Ser-Consciência-Bem-aventurança) em que não há nem mesmo o menor traço do eu-pensamento. Isso também é chamado de Mouna (Silêncio) ou Atman (Ser). Essa é a única coisa Real. S: Não há outras maneiras de destruir a mente? B: Não há outro método adequado exceto a Autoinvestigação (Atma-Vichara). Se a mente for embalada por outros meios, ela fica quieta por um tempo e então salta novamente e retoma sua atividade anterior. Nunca dê espaço em sua mente para dúvidas, mas mergulhe no Ser com firme resolução. Se a mente for constantemente direcionada ao Ser por esta investigação, ela eventualmente será dissolvida e transformada no Ser. Quando você sentir qualquer dúvida, não tente elucidá-la, mas sim tente saber a quem a dúvida ocorre. Da mesma forma, cada vez que um pensamento levanta sua cabeça, esmague-o com esta investigação. Esmagar todos os pensamentos em sua fonte é chamado vairagya (desapego). Então, Atma-Vichara (Autoinvestigação) continua a ser necessário até que o Ser seja realizado. O que é necessário é a lembrança contínua e ininterrupta do Ser. Sivaprakasam Pillai guardou cuidadosamente as respostas de Baghavan. Após esse encontro, Sivaprakasam Pillai dedicou sua vida à reflexão sobre os ensinamentos de Bhagavan e, de tempos em tempos, escrevia alguns versos. Em janeiro de 1949, Sivaprakasam Pillai faleceu. Pouco tempo depois, quando Sri Manickam Pillai, seu sobrinho, visitou o Ramanashram, Bhagavan perguntou sobre os últimos momentos de Sivaprakasam Pillai. E também quis saber se "Pillaiyavargal" (como Bhagavan costumava chamá-lo) havia deixado algum poema. Seu sobrinho, um pouco relutante, respondeu: "Bhagavan, ele deixou alguns manuscritos comigo, mas me pediu que os queimasse após sua morte e que não os mostrasse a ninguém." O Mestre respondeu: “Ah, foi assim? Isso não tem importância. Você pode mostrar esses poemas para mim.” Bhagavan examinou o conjunto de papéis, escolheu uma única folha e disse: “Esta aqui basta”, devolvendo o restante. O texto contido nesta folha ficou conhecido como “Śrī Rāmaṇa Vācana Sāram” (A Essência das Palavras de Ramana Maharshi).

In a Zoom meeting with the Ramana Maharshi Foundation UK on 9th November 2024, Michael discusses Śrī Aruṇācala Navamaṇimālai verse 1. ஸ்ரீ அருணாசல நவமணிமாலை: Śrī Aruṇācala Navamaṇimālai Verse 1 அசலனே யாயினு மச்சவை தன்னி லசலையா மம்மையெதி ராடு — மசல வுருவிலச் சத்தி யொடுங்கிட வோங்கு மருணா சலமென் றறி. acalaṉē yāyiṉu maccavai taṉṉi lacalaiyā mammaiyedi rāḍu — macala vuruvilac catti yoḍuṅgiḍa vōṅgu maruṇā calameṉ ḏṟaṟi. பதச்சேதம்: அசலனே ஆயினும், அச் சவை தன்னில் அசலை ஆம் அம்மை எதிர் ஆடும். அசல உருவில் அச் சத்தி ஒடுங்கிட, ஓங்கும் அருணாசலம் என்று அறி. Padacchēdam (word-separation): acalaṉē āyiṉum, a-c-savai-taṉṉil acalai ām ammai edir āḍum. acala uruvil a-c-satti oḍuṅgiḍa, ōṅgum aruṇācalam eṉḏṟu aṟi. அன்வயம்: அசலனே ஆயினும், அச் சவை தன்னில் அசலை ஆம் அம்மை எதிர் ஆடும். அசல உருவில் அச் சத்தி ஒடுங்கிட, அருணாசலம் ஓங்கும் என்று அறி. Anvayam (words rearranged in natural prose order): acalaṉē āyiṉum, a-c-savai-taṉṉil acalai ām ammai edir āḍum. acala uruvil a-c-satti oḍuṅgiḍa, aruṇācalam ōṅgum eṉḏṟu aṟi. English translation: Though being actually he who is motionless, in that assembly hall he dances opposite Mother, who is acalā. Know that when that śakti subsides back in the motionless form, Arunachalam is exalted. Explanatory paraphrase: Though he [Lord Siva] is actually acalaṉ [he who is motionless, being the one immutable ground from which and in which everything else appears], in that assembly hall [of Chidambaram] he dances [in the form of Nataraja] opposite [the divine] Mother, who is acalā [the consort of acalaṉ]. Know that when that śakti [the divine Mother] subsides back in the motionless form [the original, natural and fundamental form of Lord Siva], Arunachalam is exalted [that is, in the motionless form of Arunachalam, which rises high above all his other forms, Lord Siva shines exalted in his natural state as pure being]. Padavurai (word-explanation): அசலனே (acalaṉē): actually motionless, actually he who is motionless {acalaṉ is the masculine form of the neuter acalam, a Tamil form of the Sanskrit acala (the negative and opposite of cala, ‘moving', ‘moveable', ‘unsteady', ‘unfixed', ‘inconstant' or ‘fickle'), ‘unmoving', ‘motionless', ‘immoveable', ‘steady', ‘fixed', ‘constant', ‘permanent' or ‘mountain'; and the suffix ē is an intensifier that in this context implies ‘actually', ‘definitely' or ‘certainly'} | ஆயினும் (āyiṉum): though being, though [he] is {ā is a verb that means ‘be', ‘become' or ‘come into being'; āyiṉ is a conditional form of it, ‘if being' or ‘if [anything] is'; and the suffix um when added to a conditional changes its meaning from ‘if' to ‘even if' or ‘though', so āyiṉum means ‘though being' or ‘though [anything] is'} >>> so ‘அசலனே ஆயினும்' (acalaṉē āyiṉum), means ‘Though being actually he who is motionless', thereby implying: Though he [Lord Siva] is actually acalaṉ [he who is motionless, being the one immutable ground from which and in which everything else appears] > so ‘அச் சவை தன்னில் அசலை ஆம் அம்மை எதிர் ஆடும்' (a-c-savai-taṉṉil acalai ām ammai edir āḍum), means ‘in that assembly hall he dances opposite Mother, who is acalā', thereby implying ‘in that assembly hall [of Chidambaram] he dances [in the form of Nataraja] opposite [the divine] Mother, who is acalā [the consort of acalaṉ]', and hence this first sentence, ‘அசலனே ஆயினும், அச் சவை தன்னில் அசலை ஆம் அம்மை எதிர் ஆடும்' (acalaṉē āyiṉum, a-c-savai-taṉṉil acalai ām ammai edir āḍum), means ‘Though being actually he who is motionless, in that assembly hall he dances opposite Mother, who is acalā', which implies: Though he [Lord Siva] is actually acalaṉ [he who is motionless, being the one immutable ground from which and in which everything else appears], in that assembly hall [of Chidambaram] he dances [in the form of Nataraja] opposite [the divine] Mother, who is acalā [the consort of acalaṉ].

Many people mistakenly believe that lasting inner peace will be known when they finally (one day in the imagined future) manage to control the form reality well enough in order to eradicate the negative 50%. This ludicrous notion gives rise to constant efforting in order to strategize and manipulate the external reality, along with mentally arguing with what is, which of course brings about stress and suffering. Often a point of frustration is reached, which can bring about a search for deeper meaning and connection to God, and ultimately the path of Truth. This is the direct, experiential knowing of the dimension which transcends the level of forms: the underlying formlessness out of which the forms arise. Access to this deeper, spiritual dimension means access to the ONLY (non-physical) place where lasting peace can actually be found. It can be accessed here, in this moment, by simply bringing your attention fully present into the NOW. Louise Kay holds group events and retreats online and around the world.

Louise speaks about the importance of finding fulfillment in the present moment and then taking action on desires that are aligned with higher consciousness. Egoic desires are born from lack and a feeling / belief that this moment right now is incomplete but if I reach a future moment that's different I will feel better. There is a belief that if I can get X/Y/Z, THEN I'll be happy. When one surrenders fully into the present moment and disidentifies from the egoic self, thereby recognizing one's True nature as pure consciousness, an extension of the one divinity, the system becomes an open vessel through which aligned desires flow. These desires are informed by higher consciousness and are therefore of the greatest benefit to the whole. External reality is constantly giving you feeback in the form of reflections in order to support you to live consistantly in alignment with Truth.

In an online meeting on 22th September 2024, to celebrate Bhagavan's advent (arrival) to Tiruvannamalai on 1st September 1896, Michael discusses Bhagavan's how Arunachala eridactes ego when thought of. The four main verses Michael discussed in the video are the last two of Śrī Aruṇācala Padigam and first two of Śrī Aruṇācala Aṣṭakam, the meanings of which are: Padigam 10: I have seen a wonder [something extraordinary and miraculous], [this] magnetic hill that forcibly seizes [or attracts] the soul. Subduing the mischievous [outward-going mental] activity of the soul who thinks of it once, pulling [dragging or attracting] [that soul] to be facing towards itself, the one [reality that shines in the heart as sat-cit, pure being-awareness, ‘I am'], [thereby] making it be acala [motionless] like itself, it takes [and consumes] that sweet [spiritually ripened and pure] soul as bali [food offered in sacrifice or alms]. What [a wonder] this is! Souls, be saved [by] thinking of the great Aruna Hill, this killer of the soul, who shines in the heart [as the heart, namely sat-cit, the fundamental awareness of being, ‘I am']. Padigam 11: Like me who think this hill to be the Supreme, how many are those who have [thereby] been destroyed! O people who are wandering about thinking of a means to give up the body, having given up desire for this defective life due to [its] expanding [or unfolding] misery, there is on earth one rare medicine that when thought of once within the mind will kill [ego] without killing [what we actually are]. Know that it certainly is Aruna Hill. Aṣṭakam 1: It sits calmly as if a hill bereft of awareness [or knowledge], [but] ah, its action is pre-eminent [extraordinary or wonderful], difficult for anyone to know [understand or recognise]. Though from [my] young age, [when I was] bereft of knowledge [of anything else], Arunachalam shone brightly [and clearly] in [my] awareness [or mind] as what is exceedingly great, even [after] getting to know from someone that it is Tiruvannamalai I did not know [understand or recognise] its poruḷ [substance, essence, reality or what it actually is]. When, enchanting [or possessing] [my] mind, it pulled [me] close, at [that] appointed time [proper or opportune moment] of coming close I saw this to be acalam [motionless, still, steady or a mountain]. Aṣṭakam 2: When investigating within the mind who the seer is, I saw what remained when the seer [thereby] became non-existent. The mind does not rise to say ‘I saw', [so] in what way could the mind rise to say ‘I did not see'? Who has the power to elucidate this [by] speaking, when in ancient times [as Dakshinamurti] [even] you elucidated [it] without speaking? Only to elucidate your state [of silent and motionless pure self-awareness] without speaking, you stood as a hill [or motionlessly] shining [from] earth [to] sky [though actually beyond the limits of both].

I remember months ago that my whole mission in India was going to fail. Devastating moments altered with great moments of contemplation on the Lord...My strategy was as a Bioenergetic/ EFT therapist just to feel and go in that terrible loss of failing... Brutally face it... Then I post it on Facebook, and my friends like Deborah Patel send me light….Because I didn't want to hang on failing and so to attract again and again failing, get rid of it as fast as possible!!!As a spiritual being, I wanted to surrender to God... So I did. In India, I lived in holy places, Auroville and Tiruvannamalai. On the holy Arunachala (Tiruvannamalai) hill I got the idea to write an additional Book…about Meditation… and then one book for Health... Both books are already published. When I came back, I attracted the best Internet Marketing Products: Product Launch Formula with Jeff Walker… He said: Give yourself the permission to fail! We need to win the game, but not every combat!Then the Udemy Facebook Ads marketing course from Jerry Banfield, he said: One of the best strategies is to make a Facebook group… Yes, failing is great and the best thing that can happen to you!

A reading for meditation of excerpts taken from the text "All Else is Bondage". Terence James Stannus Gray (14 September 1895 – 5 January 1986), better known by the pen name Wei Wu Wei, was a 20th-century Taoist philosopher, writer, Egyptologist and theatre producer. Gray was born in Felixstowe, Suffolk, England on 14 September 1895, into a well-established Anglo-Irish family. He was educated at numerous prestigious institutions including Eton and Oxford University. After he left his theatrical career, his thoughts turned towards philosophy and metaphysics. This led to a period of travel throughout Asia, including time spent at Ramana Maharshi's ashram in Tiruvannamalai, India. Between the years 1958 and 1974 a series of eight books appeared attributed to the mysterious 'Wei Wu Wei'. These works draw on a variety of sources, including Taoism, specifically the texts attributed to Lao Tzu and Chuang Tzu, Buddhism, especially The Heart, Diamond and Lankavatara Sutras, and Chan Buddhism as taught by Hui Neng, Huang Po, Hui Hai, etc., as well as the teachings of Padmasambhava and Sri Ramana Maharshi, among others.

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

Hi from India ...so happy to find ur game book in Kindle n then later found this blog. I was in the path of wisdom and devotion for few years...I go Tiruvannamalai every week as I live close by in a place called pondicherry...u made it very clear and simple ...it just resonated only from ur words even though u read loads of scriptures....there is no personal self ,u made it clear ...the moment it got cleared there is no more question if apparent reality or forms and it's mechanisms...But still m just curious ...this is my fav question ..what's your opinion on apparent forms ...is it more like a virtual reality. How this universal self becomes personal self ...and what is these bodies or images on the screen ...how it came. ...
Tiruvannamalai zieht Pilger und Reisende aus aller Welt an und betört mit kaum greifbarem Entrücktsein. Unsere Autorin Anna Wengel hat Ende 2016 die zehntägige Meditation Vipassana in der Nähe ausprobiert und die indische Stadt kennen und lieben gelernt. In der neuen Folge von „In 5 Minuten um die Welt“ spricht sie über ihre Erlebnisse vor Ort. Viel Spaß beim Hören!
In this episode, I speak with Vickie Ya-Rong Chang (she/her). I got connected to Vickie because I wanted to speak to a clinician who had been working with clients and had expertise on climate anxiety and despair. The psychological and emotional impact of climate change is irrefutable. We don't need research to know that we can't be doing well when our home, our planet is on fire and flooding. But research does show that with increased temperatures, our baseline level of distress also increases. There are specific research showing that higher temperatures lead to higher levels of suicide, aggression and violence. Not to mention the acute trauma and post traumatic stress of climate disasters that destroy lives and livelihoods. Vickie mentions a few ways that we can “treat” climate anxiety. The courage it takes to face and feel what we have done and how we can stay present while taking action. And, our conversation takes me to an unexpected place. Vickie, in her being and wisdom, reminded me of the earth of my body and that maybe, like many others, my greatest attachment wound is the disconnection and alienation from mother earth. I hope you enjoy our conversation and it speaks to something in you. The daughter of Chinese immigrants, Vickie Ya-Rong Chang (she/her) was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. In her work as a psychologist and group facilitator, she is dedicated to personal = collective liberation. A core team member of East Point Peace Academy, her work focuses on the Fierce Vulnerability Network, a national constellation of direct action teams positioned at the intersection of climate justice and racial healing. In her individual and group support work, she works primarily with BIPOC and Asian immigrants, offering awareness and somatic practices. She is strengthened by her connection to the Chinese ancestral lineage including Wudang Mountains; and to the people, culture, and land of the Sangre de Cristo mountains in New Mexico and Arunachula in Tiruvannamalai, India.

Excerpts from the first half of Wei Wu Wei's second book entitled 'Why Lazarus Laughed: The Essential Doctrine, Zen--Advaita--Tantra'. Why Lazarus Laughed is a powerfully written book of aphorisms, meditations, and startling ruminations on the nature of time, consciousness, freedom, enlightenment, duality, and free will. Wei Wu Wei was the pen-name of Terence James Stannus Gray. After he left his theatrical career, his thoughts turned towards philosophy and metaphysics. This led to a period of travel throughout Asia, including time spent at Ramana Maharshi's ashram in Tiruvannamalai, India. Between the years 1958 and 1974, eight books and articles in various periodicals appeared under the pseudonym "Wei Wu Wei". A quote from his book 'The Open Secret' - "The writer of these lines has nothing whatsoever to teach anyone; his words are just his contribution to our common discussion of what must inevitably be for us the most important subject which could be discussed by sentient beings."

Ishtar is a meditation teacher, monk, gardener, intuitive, and writer. As a 13 year old he experienced an NDE, which, shortly thereafter, propelled him on a spiritual path. At 18, he learned a meditation practiced called the Ishayas' Ascension, and entered an ashram centered on the practice, spending long periods of time in meditative retreat, putting in long hours of service work, and teaching meditation classes around the world. In 2008, he left his monastic organization and then took an extended break from meditation teaching and attended University. The years lived outside the semi cloistered environment of the ashram were challenging, but ultimately led to a more deeply anchored Presence. Subtle barriers fell, opening to the experience of the world as the Self. This process continues to unfold and expand. Since 2014, he has served as a trail guide on the path, helping people cultivate Awareness and relax into Wholeness that is already here. He works as an evolutionary astrologer, helping people connect with their guiding myths and soul music.

Contact him via his website for more information. From November until April, he will hosting meditation retreats in Tiruvannamalai, India."
Lighting the deepam on Arunachala for freedom:Pranav Khullar:TOI:THESPEAKINGTREELighting The Deepam On Arunachala For Freedom By: Pranav Khullar Nov 18, 2021, 13:11 IST The Puranic tradition has it that while darshan at Chidambaram, being born at Tiruvarur, or dying in Kashi are all considered auspiciously capable of granting liberation, merely thinking of Arunachala at Tiruvannamalai is enough to attain a liberated state of mind. This invocation of Arunachala was often quoted by Ramana Maharshi to convey the mysterious pull of the place, which could turn the mind inwards into an inquiry into its source, the Self. Maharshi was himself magnetically pulled towards Arunachala at the age of sixteen, after a near-death mystical experience, which as he was fond of saying later, made him seek out his real father in Shiv, and his real home at Arunachala. The Skanda Purana talks about the mythological symbolism of the Arunachala hill, seeing it as a Taijasa Linga, representing the fire element. Arunachala is seen as that great column of light, fire, that not only ignites the spark of freedom for a seeker but lights up a fire which will eventually burn away all desire and root out the mind-ego. The mythological story goes that Vishnu and Brahma once quarrelled on the issue of superiority. Shiv appeared to both as a column of light, asking them both to restrain from arguing with each other. Vishnu and Brahma began a new quest to prove each other's superiority by trying to find the upper and lower ends of this column of fire, by assuming the forms of a boar and a swan. While Brahma tried to conjure up his side of the end of the column, Vishnu conceded defeat in finding the other end. But Vishnu was considered the winner, as Brahma had attempted to bluff Shiv. Vishnu represents the intellect in this story, Brahma the ego, and Shiv the Atman, the Self. Since the column of light was too fiery to look upon, Shiv manifested this column as the hill of Arunachala itself, a linga in itself. The fire element represents the fire of freedom, which needs to be ignited, the fire of wisdom which alone can take one beyond the false conditioning that one is the body and mind alone. This notion that ‘i am the body and mind', Maharshi believed, could be erased by an inquiry into the source of that very mind itself. It will reveal the false identification with the body and mind, which inevitably brings sorrow and pain. Yet one is tempted back into this notion time and again, as desires never seem to cease. Ramana stated that this journey from the ego to consciousness needed to be taken immediately, and Arunachala was a place that could trigger this leap of wisdom easily.It is this very love of the manifestation of Shiv as Arunachala that is celebrated on the Kartigai Deepam day, as a huge Deepam, lamp, is lit up on top of the hill to represent that column of light. Deepam is a symbol of that need to ignite that fire for freedom. And Arunachala is the place where the ‘i' vanishes and the mind goes into a great silence, from which one will finally remerge, having learnt to ride the wild tigers of the mind. The thought of Arunachala, Maharshi would say, is enough to take the path of self-enquiry. Karthigai Deepam is on November 19
My guest David Godman has extensively written on the life, teachings and disciples of Ramana Maharshi, an Indian sage who lived and taught for more than fifty years at Arunachala, a sacred mountain in Tamil Nadu, India. He first visited the Tiruvannamalai ashram of Ramana Maharshi in 1976. And for 8 years, between 1978 and 1985, he was the librarian of the ashram. In the last 30 years he has written or edited 16 books on topics related to Sri Ramana, his teachings and his followers. Quote: ‘The thinking mind and the I-thought are one and the same. The thinking mind is an illusion.' As the author of the book 'Be, As You Are', David is deeply familiar with the teachings of Ramana Maharshi, who is considered the most important Indian saint of the 20th century. In this conversation he answers questions such as: - Who Ramana was and why he was considered the most important Indian saint of the 20th century? - How did Ramana experience Self-realisation? - What did Ramana mean by ‘No effort is required to realize the omnipresent Self. In fact, it has always been realised. Only the illusion of the I-thought has to be overcome in order to realize this.'? - Did he recommend any practices or ‘character' qualities to realize the Self? - Could you explain Ramanas way of teaching? How did he lead his devotees to realize the Self? - Were there spontaneous Self-realisations? If so, how did they manifest or express? - How would one describe life after Self-realisation? - Does Self-realisation mean you have to meditate until you pass through different states of consciousness, such as samadhi, or did / could it occur instantaneously? - How did Ramana define the mind and what was reality to him? - Did Ramana believe everyone who wanted to could realize the Self in this lifetime? - What did Ramana mean by ‘There is neither creation nor destruction, neither destiny nor free will, neither path nor achievement. This is the final truth.'? Should we (our ego) still strive for something, e.g. Self-realisation? - How did his teaching differ / was similar to other advaita teachers, such as Papaji / Nisargadatta Maharaj? - How did your life change working and spending so much time with many great gurus? ► About David Godman: https://www.davidgodman.org/ https://www.youtube.com/c/DavidGodmanArunachala ---------------- ★★ SHARING = CARING if you enjoyed this episode, sharing with others who could benefit from this information too is truly appreciated!

In 1970, at 19 years of age, Caylor went searching for spiritual help in India. What he found was a beggar (Yogi Ramsuratkumar, 1918-2001) who showered blessings and divine love on all who came upon him and who came to be recognized as one of the great masters of the last century. In this talk, Caylor describes some of the bewildering circumstances that he witnessed and teaching lessons that he received on a spiritual journey in the company of Yogi Ramsuratkumar in and around the town of Tiruvannamalai in south India. Yogi Ramsuratkumar’s timeless joy, liberation, and continuous work for all the creation elicited a response of devotion from so many whose hearts were opened through contact with him. Caylor is a Doctor of Oriental Medicine, an acupuncturist, and author of Yogi Ramsuratkumar: The Godchild, Tiruvannamalai and the booklet, The Yogi Ramsuratkumar Garland of Praises.

Ce texte anonyme, écrit en tamil au dix-neuvième siècle, est un bréviaire de l'Advaïta Vedânta. Le Sage d'Arunâchala, Sri Râmana Maharshi (1879-1950), unanimement reconnu comme la personnification de la Sagesse Éternelle de l'Inde le citait et le recommandait souvent. Ainsi, dans "Living by the words of Bhagavan" de David Godman (ouvrage retraçant le témoignage d'Annamalai Swami, proche du Maharshi), nous trouvons le passage suivant : " (...) lorsque je demandai à Bhagavan de me sélectionner du matériel de lecture, il me donna une liste de six livres : Kaivalya Navanitam, Ribhu Gitâ, Ashtâvakra Gitâ, Ellâm Onru, Swarupa Sâram, et Yoga Vâsishtha. Il mit un accent particulier sur Ellâm Onru, me disant : "Si tu veux Moksha (la Délivrance), écris, lis et pratique les instructions contenues dans Ellam Onru. " (édition de l'ashram de Sri Annamalai Swami, page 104, Tiruvannamalai, 1994).

Intense convective clouds are hovering over Chennai, Thiruvallur, Ranipet, Kanchipuram, Chengelpattu, Villupuram, Tiruvannamalai, Kallakuruchi, Cuddalore and Ramanathapuram districts, the Regional Meteorological Centre, Chennai, said this (Sunday) morning. They have a ‘medium' potential to trigger moderate to heavy rainfall until 11.30 AM, the update said. This turn of events comes about as a second successive rain-diving trough, apparently more resourceful than the predecessor, approaches the Tamil Nadu and Coastal Andhra Pradesh coasts. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/business-line/message
The fascinating story of Werner Meier in his own words. From the troubled young man born in Switzerland who was compelled to travel to India to the now peaceful, wise and thoughtful yogi living a simple life. He is zooming in from the holy city of Tiruvannamalai, home of the sacred mountain Arunachala and the famous Ramana Ashram. A somewhat reluctant spiritual teacher, Werner is a true Yogi. He shares the inner struggle that brought him to yoga, vedanta and eventually to his guru Ammachi in South India.SHOW LESS
Definitely a historical moment for me to share, this true story originally written by my late grandfather V.S. Arunachallam. He beautifully describes his visit and the day spent with Sri Ramana Maharshi (30 December 1879 – 14 April 1950) himself, while the Rishi used to stay at the Virupaksha cave situated at the foot of the Arunachala Hill in South Of India.This is the period between 1900-1919, Considering an age-old real life story that gave me peace and tranquility while reading, I am happy to share his experience by way of my narration. My late grandfather was based out of a village called Arani in the district of Tiruvannamalai, south of India and he used to frequently visit Sri Ramana Maharshi Ashram during his pupalage. This story is sure to transport you back in time.Narration & Music: Ravi iyer Support the show (https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/raviiyerfusion) --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ravi-iyer95/message

Mooji tells us: ✓ How his greatest learning from Papaji has been to not identify what arises in your mind. ✓ How if a person is experiencing doubt and anxiety in their lives, how they could respond with peace to this. ✓ How knowing who we are is the highest attainment in the human kingdom. ✓ How everyone is seeking to be happy and everyone is seeking to find some peace. ✓ How they are aspects of mental illness which is deeply on the path to spiritual evolution. ✓ And how we have a choice to choose the ego's way or choose to be in the heart. Anthony Paul Moo-Young, known as Mooji, was born on 29 January 1954 in Port Antonio, Jamaica. In 1969, he moved to the UK and lived in Brixton, London. Anthony worked in London's 'West End' as a street portrait artist for many years, then as a painter and a stained glass artist, and later as a teacher at Brixton College. For a long time, he was well known as Tony Moo, but is now affectionately known as Mooji by the many seekers and friends who visited him. Mooji is a direct disciple of Sri Harilal Poonja, the renowned advaita master, or Papaji, as his followers call him. In 1987, a chance meeting with a Christian mystic was to be a life-changing encounter for Mooji. It brought him, through prayer, into the direct experience of the Divine within. Within a short period, he experienced a radical shift in consciousness so profound that outwardly, he seemed, to many who knew him, to be an entirely different person. As his spiritual consciousness awakened, a deep inner transformation began which unfolded in the form of many miraculous experiences and mystical insights. He felt a strong wind of change blowing through his life which brought with it a deep urge to surrender completely to divine will. Shortly after, he stopped teaching, left his home and began a life of quiet simplicity and surrender to the will of God as it manifested spontaneously within him. A great peace entered his being, and has remained ever since. For the following six years, Mooji drifted in a state of spontaneous meditation oblivious to the outer world he formally knew. During these years, he lived almost penniless but was constantly absorbed in inner joy, contentment and natural meditation. Grace came in the form of his sister Julianne, who welcomed Mooji into her home with loving kindness, and afforded him the time and space he much needed to flower spiritually, without the usual pressures and demands of external life. Mooji refers to this period of his life as his "wilderness years" and speaks touchingly of a deep feeling of being "seated on the Lap of God". In many respects, these were far from easy times for Mooji, yet there is no trace of regret or remorse in his tone as he recounts these years. On the contrary, he speaks of this phase of his life as being richly blessed and abundant in grace, trust and loving devotion. In 1993, Mooji travelled to India. He had a desire to visit Dakshineswar in Calcutta where Sri Ramakrishna, the great Bengali Saint, had lived and taught. The words and life of Ramakrishna were a source of inspiration and encouragement to Mooji in the early years of his spiritual development. He loved the Saint deeply but as fate would determine, he would not go to Calcutta. While in Rishikesh, a holy place at the foothills of the Himalayas, he was to have another propitious encounter; this time with three devotees of the great advaita Master Sri Harilal Poonja, known to his many devotees as Papaji. Their persistent invitation to Mooji to travel with them to meet the Master made a deep impression on him. Still he delayed the prospect of meeting Papaji for two whole weeks, choosing first to visit Varanasi, the holy city. In late November 1993, Mooji travelled to Indira Nagar in Lucknow to meet Papaji. It was to be an auspicious and profoundly significant experience on his spiritual journey. He felt it to be his good fortune; he had met a living Buddha, a fully enlightened master. He gradually came to recognise that Papaji was his Guru. Mooji stayed with Papaji for several months. During one particular satsang meeting, Papaji told him: “If you desire to be one with truth, 'you' must completely disappear.” On hearing this, great anger arose within his mind, full of judgement and resistance towards Papaji. He decided to leave the master's presence for good, but later that day a huge dark cloud of anger and rebelliousness suddenly lifted, leaving his mind in a state of such peace, emptiness and a love towards the master, so intense, that he knew he could not leave. Through 'Papaji's' grace, his mind was pushed back into the emptiness of source. In 1994, with his Master's blessing, he travelled down to Sri Ramanasramam in Tiruvannamalai. This is the ashram at the foot of Arunachala, the 'Hill of Fire', where Sri Ramana Maharshi*, the Sage of Arunachala and Papaji's Guru, had lived and taught. Mooji felt very happy and at home in Tiruvannamalai. He stayed there for almost three months before returning to sit at Papaji's feet once again. A week after returning to Lucknow, Mooji received news from London that his eldest son had died suddenly of pneumonia. He returned to England. The bliss of earlier years gave way to a profound emptiness and inner silence, imparted by the Grace and Presence of Papaji. Mooji visited Papaji again in 1997. It was to be his last meeting with his Beloved Master, who had by now become ill and frail in his movements, but whose inner light and presence remained undiminished. A month after returning to London, Mooji received news that the Master had passed away. Of this Mooji declares: "That Principle that manifests as the Master is ever HERE NOW. The True Master never dies, it is the mister that dies. The true Master, that Sat Guru* within, alone is the Real". Since 1999, Mooji has been sharing satsang in the form of spontaneous encounters, retreats, satsang intensives and one-to-one meetings with the many seekers who visit him, from all parts of the world, in search of the direct experience of truth. Few amongst the modern teachers of the advaita tradition expound the 'knowledge of Self', and the method of self-enquiry, with such dazzling clarity, love and authority. There is an energy that radiates from Mooji's presence, a kind of impersonal intimacy, full of love, joy and a curious mix of playfulness and authority. His style is direct, clear, compassionate and often humorous. Once caught in the grip of his questions, there seems to be no place to hide. So unsparing is his scrutiny and uncompromising stance, that the 'I' concept is inescapably exposed as a mental construction, when viewed from the formless awareness we are. Mooji has travelled to Spain, Italy, Germany, Sweden, North America, Argentina, Brasil, UK, Ireland, Portugal, Ukraine, Poland, Russia, and India, conducting Satsang meetings, Intensives and Retreats. He is ever open to meeting sincere seekers of truth, whatever their background. Last Updated March 16, 2020 Original Air Date April 28 2016

Join Rishi on this direct line to Sahaja every week to dialogue with beings who are living at Sahaja right now! In this kind of Utopian society, I would say similar to the life of the Essenes, which was the tribe of Jews that Jesus grew up in outside of Jerusalem. These dialogues are in direct collaboration with Mooji and the Sangha. Thank you for joining Rishi in dialogue with beautiful Disciple Deva this week, who hails from England. Deva first met Mooji in London and then followed him to Tiruvannamalai. “This is when I had enough courage to ask questions.” “I could see in the being's eyes, I don't know something recognized something.“ These new conversations are current talks on Skype that were arranged with the blessings and the guidance of Guruji and his aides. “As you know, since I met Guruji I do not have a life anymore—that is what has changed, my life is now satsang. I was asked awhile back by a sangha member for how long I had been in satsang. The answer came like this: 'I have always been in satsang, all my life, the only different thing is that I didnt know, and now I do.''' The second half of this audio is a great 12-minute teaching by Mooji describing awareness and giving attention to is-ness.
One fine morning when I was in my mid-twenties, I woke up and the life I had previously led was over. I was consumed by a longing to be truly intimate with God, the one truth. This great longing grew daily, and it first manifested as being aware of the unseen in nature. Nature invited me into itself, and I found myself taking very long solo trips deep into the wilderness of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. This naturally led to a resonance with Native traditions, and before long I met my first teacher, a highly-respected Lakota medicine man who was very committed to upholding the Old Way. With this association, the intimate awareness of spirit deepened. I met my master, Mata Amritanandamayi, in 1993. There was an immediate recognition that I needed to spend as much time as possible in her presence, so I spent most of the next nine years in her ashram in India. This was a period of intense de-conditioning where so much was exposed. Amma knew my longing for truth, and consequently pushed me quite hard, so that a natural, authentic surrender and love was all I knew. It is said in the scriptures that love leads to knowledge (Bhakti to Jnana), and knowledge leads to love. That they are two sides of the same coin-not separate. There arose in me a natural resonance with self-inquiry, and with Amma's blessing I spent two years a Ramana Maharshi's ashram in Tiruvannamalai. Then one day I knew I was done with India, and returned to the west. When I returned, I had nothing to hold on to. No family, home, money, job, car, or health. The body was quite weak and tired, and the old way of striving couldn't survive. Surrender naturally deepened, and it was at this time that the personal self really lost its hold. In 2004, Pamela Wilson invited me to share my experience with others. After talking to Amma about it and receiving instruction from her, I felt an overflowing and a readiness to share. In recent years, Adyashanti has been and continues to be an invaluable guide and a support in this unfoldment and recognition of what's true. He has my deepest gratitude. My heart bows down to all of my teachers and friends who make up the fullness of this life, and no words can describe how this heart bows to Amma.
