...and we have yogic things that will help you settle in deeply so you can experience a pain-free dimension of your own being. Which is a deeper dimension than you’re usually paying attention to. But this dimensionality is always there, always here. You’re usually looking at your physical body an...

When your mind is clear, the light of your own Divine Essence shines through. The light of your inherent Divinity is even concentrated by your mind, like a laser. This is explained in a sutra, which I'll describe this way. There is a field of Consciousness – huge, vast, endless. To help your mind...

Breathing is a sacred act. Every inhalation is an infusion of Divine energy into your body-mind complex. The sacredness of life is found everywhere, but you tend to look outside. Yet the sacredness of life is most easily found within. A simple and accessible access point is your own breath. You d...

I saw a video of an eagle being set free. Injured, it was rescued and got medical treatment and rehab. On the big day, the whole care team stood back as this huge dog crate was set near the edge of a cliff. The eagle poked its head out, stepped out, looked around. It flexed its wings and hopped...

The cooling inner light. Most light, you know, is hot. So when we think about light shining, we think about a heat source. Whether you’re talking about a candle flame or a fire or a light bulb, or even an electrical wire that glows. We’re used to seeing electrical wires wrapped in a casing but i...

Getting enlightened is as much about unlearning as it is about learning. Yet unlearning is harder than learning, at least for most people. The things you learned first are – to you – right. Everything else that comes along and disagrees with it is wrong. Even when the new information is proven to...

Wholeness and holiness. These are the words that I use to help us with Western minds begin to understand what has been described so richly, and so extensively in the Sanskrit literature beginning thousands of years ago by the great sages of ancient times, all the way through to modern times, inc...

You’re always seeking bliss. Your mind helps you with this, always looking for something to captivate it. I really noticed this when I left my Baba’s Ashram in India to return to the USA. I vividly remember the 2 hour taxi ride to the Mumbai airport. My eyes were drawn to the billboards, to the ...

Once you've seen, once you've experienced, once you know...it’s not merely visual, the seeing means knowing your own Self. Once you’ve had the experience of your own Divine essence, you can’t go back to the way you were. You are expanded inside. And all your attempts to fit yourself into that tin...

You want to be happy? To get happy, you’re probably using the methodologies that you learned from your family and in school. Let me ask you – the people who taught you those methodologies, were they happy? Is that the kind of happy you want to be? It took me decades to figure out that the probl...

It is the inner bondage that causes all your problems. When you’ve got a sense of spaciousness inside, you can handle whatever shows up in your life. You can step into the world with an open mind, with an open heart, with open breath, because you’re not limiting yourself to your idea of who you ...

Baba would walk around the meditation hall and give Shaktipat to 300 or 400 – all in an hour, about 10 seconds per person. And the universe unfolded within for each person, each in their own way. I got zapped. And yes, the universe unfolded within. It’s like if you get in the shower – you’ll get ...

Everybody loves the inner upwelling. It doesn’t have to be a spiritual experience. You love when you feel an upwelling of laughter. You love when you feel an upwelling of love. You even love when you feel an upwelling of tears. You love that feeling of the inner upwelling. This is why we love thi...

That’s what you want, instant enlightenment. It’s like Baba lobs a tennis ball your way and, instead of hitting it back, you catch it in your hand and you see the whole universe within you. You are That. Baba! I got it! This is Shaktipat. This is a blast of transformative energy, revelatory ene...
