« Pour ceux qui aspirent à la plus haute félicité, le Yoga Vasistha est pareil au nectar. C'est un puits de sagesse.  » Swami Venkatesananda.A ceux qui désirent connaître le sens de la vie, on prescrit depuis la nuit des temps la lecture et l'étude des Ecritures. En se fondant sur de telles sources, ils ne sont jamais induits en erreur. Le Yoga Vasishtha décortique la conscience, notre perception du monde, sa dissolution ultime, la libération de l'âme et la création de l'univers, du point de vue du sage libéré.

Adyashanti (dont le nom signifie paix primordiale) défie tous les aspirants à la paix et à la liberté de songer sérieusement à la possibilité de se libérer en cette vie. Il a commencé à enseigner en 1996, à la requête de son maître zen avec qui il étudiait depuis quatorze ans. Depuis, plusieurs chercheurs spirituels se sont éveillés à leur nature essentielle en côtoyant Adyashanti.Auteur de Emptiness Dancing (Conscience pure), The Impact of Awakening et My Secret is Silence, Adyashanti offre des instructions spontanées et directes analogues aux enseignements des premiers maîtres zen et des sages de l'Advaita vedanta. Néanmoins, Adyashanti déclare : «Si vous filtrez mes paroles au travers d'une tradition ou d'un système en –isme, vous passez à côté de ce que je dis. La vérité libératrice n'est pas statique; elle est vivante. Elle ne peut être émise sous forme de concepts et ne peut être saisie par le mental. La vérité réside au-delà de toute forme de fondamentalisme conceptuel. Ce que vous êtes se situe au-delà – éveillé et présent, déjà ci et maintenant. Je vous aide simplement à le réaliser.»Natif de la Californie du Nord, Adyashanti vit avec sa femme Annie, et enseigne surtout dans la région de San Francisco, offrant des satsangs, des week-ends intensifs et des retraites en silence. Il se déplace pour enseigner dans d'autres régions des États-Unis et du Canada.  Bibliographie: Adyashanti - Conscience pure et méditation véritable (https://www.babelio.com/livres/Adyashanti-Conscience-pure-et-meditation-veritable/450453) Musique: Ethereal Ephemera (https://etherealephemera.bandcamp.com/album/the-eternal-music-box) Narration et réalisation: Bruno Léger Production: Les mécènes du Vieux Sage Que règnent la paix et l'amour parmi tous les êtres de l'univers.  OM Shanti, Shanti, Shanti.

In this conversation, Stewart Alsop sits down with Ken Lowry to explore a wide sweep of themes running through Christianity, Protestant vs. Catholic vs. Orthodox traditions, the nature of spirits and telos, theosis and enlightenment, information technology, identity, privacy, sexuality, the New Age “Rainbow Bridge,” paganism, Buddhism, Vedanta, and the unfolding meaning crisis; listeners who want to follow more of Ken's work can find him on his YouTube channel Climbing Mount Sophia and on Twitter under KenLowry8.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Christianity's tangled history surfaces as Stewart Alsop and Ken Lowry unpack Luther, indulgences, mediation, and the printing-press information shift.05:00 Luther's encounters with the devil lead into talk of perception, hallucination, and spiritual influence on “main-character” lives.10:00 Protestant vs. Catholic vs. Orthodox worship styles highlight telos, Eucharist, liturgy, embodiment, and teaching as information.15:00 The Church as a living spirit emerges, tied to hierarchy, purpose, and Michael Levin's bioelectric patterns shaping form.20:00 Spirits, goals, Dodgers-as-spirit, and Christ as the highest ordering spirit frame meaning and participation.25:00 Identity, self, soul, privacy, intimacy, and the internet's collapse of boundaries reshape inner life.30:00 New Age, Rainbow Bridge, Hawkins' calibration, truth-testing, and spiritual discernment enter the story.35:00 Stewart's path back to Christianity opens discussion of enlightenment, Protestant legalism, Orthodox theosis, and healing.40:00 Emptiness, relationality, Trinity, and personhood bridge Buddhism and mystical Christianity.45:00 Suffering, desire, higher spirits, and orientation toward the real sharpen the contrast between simulation and reality.50:00 Technology, bodies, AI, and simulated worlds raise questions of telos, meaning, and modern escape.55:00 Neo-paganism, Hindu hierarchy of gods, Vedanta, and the need for a personal God lead toward Jesus as historical revelation.01:00:00 Buddha, enlightenment, theosis, the post-1945 world, Hitler as negative pole, and goodness as purpose close the inquiry.Key InsightsMediation and information shape the Church. Ken Lowry highlights how the printing press didn't just spread ideas—it restructured Christian life by shifting mediation. Once information became accessible, individuals became the “interface” with Christ, fundamentally changing Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox trajectories and the modern crisis of religious choice.The Protestant–Catholic–Orthodox split hinges on telos. Protestantism orients the service around teaching and information, while Catholic and Orthodox traditions culminate in the Eucharist, embodiment, and liturgy. This difference expresses two visions of what humans are doing in church: receiving ideas or participating in a transformative ritual that shapes the whole person.Spirits, telos, and hierarchy offer a map of reality. Ken frames spirits as real intelligible goals that pull people into coordinated action—seen as clearly in a baseball team as in a nation. Christ is the highest spirit because aiming toward Him properly orders all lower goals, giving a coherent vertical structure to meaning.Identity, privacy, and intimacy have transformed under the internet. The shift from soul → self → identity tracks changes in information technology. The internet collapses boundaries, creating unprecedented exposure while weakening the inherent privacy of intimate realities such as genuine lovemaking, which Ken argues can't be made public without destroying its nature.New Age influences and Hawkins' calibration reflect a search for truth. Stewart's encounters with the Rainbow Bridge world, David Hawkins' muscle-testing epistemology, and the escape from scientistic secularism reveal a cultural hunger for spiritual discernment in the absence of shared metaphysical grounding.Enlightenment and theosis may be the same mountain. Ken suggests that Buddhist enlightenment and Orthodox theosis aim at the same transformative reality: full communion with what is most real. The difference lies in Jesus as the concrete, personal revelation of God, offering a relational path rather than pure negation or emptiness.Secularism is shaped by powerfully negative telos. Ken argues that the modern world orients itself not toward the Good revealed in Christ but away from the Evil revealed in Hitler. Moving away from evil as a primary aim produces confusion, because only a positive vision of the Good can order desires, technology, suffering, and the overwhelming power of modern simulations.

In this episode I am exploring sayings 38 and 39 in the Gospel of Thomas. Both have parallels in the canonical gospels, but not exactly. Once again context – or more exactly lack of context – is an important factor in the interpretation of these sayings of Jesus. I will read the sayings in Thomas for you.Jesus said, "Often you have desired to hear these sayings that I am speaking to you, and you have no one else from whom to hear them. There will be days when you will seek me and you will not find me."Jesus said, "The Pharisees and the scholars have taken the keys of knowledge and have hidden them. They have not entered nor have they allowed those who want to enter to do so. As for you, be as sly as snakes and as simple as doves."View Marshall's books here: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Marshall-Davis/author/B001K8Y0RU

Ramana Maharshi (1879-1950) compte parmi les plus grands maîtres de l'Inde contemporaine. Sans aucune étude ni initiation, il atteignit l'illumination et vécut en ermite dans la sainte montagne d'Arunachala. Son enseignement principalement oral attira à lui des milliers d'Indiens et d'occidentaux. A la fois conforme à la vérité la plus profonde des textes sacrés de l'hindouisme et détachée d'une érudition sclérosante, sa parole s'autorisait des excursions dans la pensée évangélique qu'il éclairait d'un jour nouveau. En maître socratique, il ne donnait jamais de leçons magistrales, mais se contentait de répondre aux questions qu'on lui posait et d'en susciter de nouvelles. Plus de trente ans après la première traduction française de ces entretiens, voici enfin une édition critique et intégrale de ce classique de la spiritualité vivante.   Bibliographie: L'enseignement de Ramana Maharshi, édition intégrale (https://www.babelio.com/livres/Maharshi-LEnseignement-de-Ramana-Maharshi/270057)   Musique: Bruno Léger   Narration et réalisation: Bruno Léger   Production: Les mécènes du Vieux Sage   Que règnent la paix et l'amour parmi tous les êtres de l'univers.    OM Shanti, Shanti, Shanti.

What if music isn't just entertainment—but the very architecture of reality?In this paradigm-shifting episode we explore the radical proposition that vibration is not merely a metaphor. From ancient philosophy to modern neuroscience, near-death experiences to channeled symphonies, we trace a breathtaking arc across time and consciousness to uncover a unified theory: that sound, frequency, and resonance are the keys to understanding who we are, where we come from, and what reality truly is.We begin with the ancients. Pythagoras' “music of the spheres” and Kepler's celestial harmonics weren't poetic musings—they were mathematical assertions that the cosmos itself is structured like a divine instrument. From there, we zoom into the microcosm: the human being as vibrational receiver. Drawing on metaphysical sources like Andrew Jackson Davis, we explore the idea that every atom is a string in a divine orchestra, and that alignment—feeling “centered,” “in tune,” or “in one accord”—is not just metaphorical, but literal. Discord, then, becomes vibrational misalignment, a friction against the grain of existence.This sets the stage for one of the most compelling bodies of evidence: near-death experiences (NDEs). Across cultures and contexts, experiencers report hearing indescribably beautiful music—not as entertainment, but as truth made audible. Dr. Michael Newton's regression research reveals souls recognized by their unique vibrational signatures, suggesting that each consciousness is a distinct note in a cosmic symphony. Hospice workers echo this, documenting patients perceiving ethereal choral music moments before death. These accounts challenge materialist assumptions: if the brain is offline, what is doing the hearing?Next, we explore the human conduit: savants, creatives, and channelers who seem to access music not through learning, but reception. Cases like Leslie Lemke and Gloria with Williams syndrome suggest that profound musical ability may be latent in all of us, unlocked by unusual brain wiring or trauma. Dr. Alan Snyder's research proposes that inhibiting certain brain regions can temporarily reveal savant-like perception, implying that genius may be a matter of tuning in rather than building up.Then come the channeled currents. Rosemary Brown claimed to transcribe music dictated by deceased composers, while Stuart Sharp spent decades trying to capture the “Angeli Symphony” he heard after personal tragedy. Jacqueline Ott went further, channeling music from non-human intelligences—cosmic languages, liquid light, divine blueprints—suggesting a source beyond individual spirits, perhaps a universal vibrational database.This leads us to the primacy of consciousness. Drawing on quantum physics, Vedanta philosophy, and contact modality research, we explore the idea that consciousness is not produced by the brain, but fundamental to reality itself. Nobel laureates like Sir James Jeans and Erwin Schrödinger leaned toward this view, echoing ancient insights that the observer and the observed are one.If consciousness is primary, then phenomena like UFOs, NDEs, OBEs, and channeling may be different expressions of the same underlying truth: consciousness interacting with other layers of reality. Researchers like Dr. Kenneth Ring and the FREE group found that experiencers across modalities report similar transformations—less fear, more compassion, a shift toward love and service.And that's the final chord. Across all sources, the message is consistent: the purpose of consciousness is evolution. Not technological or biological, but vibrational. We are here to raise our frequency, reduce entropy, and harmonize with the larger consciousness system. The method? Unconditional love and selfless service.This episode invites you to reconsider everything—from the music you hear to the thoughts you think—as part of a cosmic composition. You are not just a listener. You are a note. A radiant tone in the divine chord.Are you in tune?

They are also very similar to sayings that we find in the New Testament gospels. For that reason, the difference in interpretation of these sayings really is a matter of context. Here are the two sayings as found in the Gospel of Thomas: Jesus said, "If a blind person leads a blind person, both of them will fall into a hole." Jesus said, "One can't enter a strong person's house and take it by force without tying his hands.

One about being built on a mountaintop, one about shouting from a housetop, and one about shining from a tabletop. I am grouping them together because they have the same theme and in the canonical gospels they are found together. And they are all about how the nondual Reality of the Kingdom of God shines forth for all to see. Here are the sayings: Jesus said, "A city being built on a high mountain and fortified cannot fall, nor can it be hidden." Jesus said, "Preach from your housetops that which you will hear in your ear. For no one lights a lamp and puts it under a bushel, nor does he put it in a hidden place, but rather he sets it on a lampstand so that everyone who enters and leaves will see its light."View Marshall's books here: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Marshall-Davis/author/B001K8Y0RU
