Realize the Truth

What must we realize? What is the truth about us? Who are we? Where did we come from? Where will we go? Do we know what happens at death? What happens beyond death? What actually creates the life that is inside of us? Do we know the truth? We do not know the truth. The goal of our life is to realize the truth. Why is it that we suffer in misery and pain? Have you analyzed the truth ? The moment we realize the truth, we can be liberated from suffering and pain. What is the truth? We must desire to know the Truth The fact is we live in ignorance. Because we live in ignorance of the truth, thinking that we are this limited body and mind,...

What is Self-Realization?

We have all heard about self-realization. We have read spiritual quotes related to it, listened to discourses by spiritual teachers or heard of such spiritual experiences. Some of us may be intimidated by the term or overwhelmed by spiritual leaders who have attained it. But what is self-realization? Does it place one in a different realm of existence? What is the need for self-realization? Why must it be the goal of humanity? Self-realization is the truth of who we are, what we are – the realization that we are not the physical body, the physical form that we believe ourselves to be, but the energy within that physical form that gives us life. Most of us are unable to realize this because of the illusionary world we live in, because of our mind which makes...

What is Moksha?

Moksha is the goal of life. Every human being’s aim is to be liberated. What is Liberation? Liberation is escaped from the cycle of birth and death. It is escaping from misery, suffering and pain. It is self-realization. It is freedom or mukti. Why are we born? What are all these concepts trying to convey to us? It is very difficult for the common man to think about Moksha, Liberation and Self-Realization because we are not mindful of the truth. We are so preoccupied and busy with worldly matters that we think we are born to live and to die in pursuit of success, happiness and achievement. We mistake them to be the goals of life. In fact, anything remotely spiritual switches off our mind. Spiritual Enlightenment is not on our agenda. But what is this Spiritual...

What is our Purpose of Life on Earth?

Do you think that the only purpose of our life on Earth is to be happy? Isn’t it a very shallow purpose? What is the challenge of just being happy? Anyone can have fun! But is that enough? Of course not! Most people think that to live means to just run, run and run to have some fun and that’s it. It is done! This is not “living”…. This is just “existing”! What is the true purpose, the true meaning of life? Why are we alive? Why did we come to planet Earth? Where did we come from? Where would we go? Who made this planet? What makes the Earth spin on its own axis or revolve around the sun? Who created the cosmos? Who...

The Mystery of the Law of Karma, You Probably Didn’t Know

Everybody talks of Karma. It’s a simple law – what you give, you get. It’s the law of the boomerang. What goes around, comes around. It’s a law of action and reaction. It is very simple to understand – if you plant mangoes, you will not reap pineapples. As you sow, so shall you reap. Nothing is new about this law. It seems to be a universal law that exists on planet earth. But there are some things about the law of Karma that you probably didn’t know. What the world knows is very simple – if we do good, good will come back to us and if we do bad deeds, we will suffer. Nothing can escape the law of Karma. Not only does it work in...

What is the Ultimate Goal of Life?

If we look around, different people have different goals. Some people just want to be rich, others crave for power, and still others seek contentment and fulfillment. If we look deeper, people pursue different things to ultimately get to Destination Happiness. 80% of the world is trying to climb the first peak of Achievement, while the rest are trying to go further towards the second peak of Fulfillment. The achiever may want to excel in sports, politics or business, amongst the various other fields that are mushrooming in the world today. The ones who are content and fulfilled are trying to escape the rat race. For them, happiness doesn’t come from achieving more, but rather from desiring less. The former, who climb the first peak of happiness,...

Who is God? Where is God? What is God?

We all believe in a God. God is our Lord, our Saviour and our Father in heaven. All religions accept the existence of God. We go to temples, mosques and churches. As children, we are made to believe in a God that has a name and a form. We follow scriptures as the word of God, but have we ever tried to go in quest of the truth, to realize who God is? We pray to a Power that has a name and a form but where is this God? Who is this God? What is this God? God is beyond gender. God is nameless, formless, eternal, and invisible. There is a source, a Power that is responsible for the creation of this amazing universe. The wind...

Yoga – Union with God

What is Yoga? Yoga is commonly understood to be physical gymnastics – the mere practice of breathing exercises or Pranayama, meditation techniques or Dhyana, physical exercises and postures or Asanas. Of course, these are parts of Ashtanga Yoga or the Eight Limbs of Yoga, but in reality this is not Yoga. The role of Asanas or meditation is a part of the overall Yogic experience, but Yoga means something entirely different. Yoga is “Yuj” or Union – Union with God. It is the ability to detach oneself from the world and connect with God. It is building a connection with God. Just as a SIM card, pinging for the satellite discovers its own network, and then follows the network wherever it goes, similarly, being in Yoga means being in constant union with God and never disconnecting...

Spirituality in Life: Why is Spirituality Important?

Why is Spirituality important? What is Spirituality? Spirituality is everything to do with the Spirit, the Soul, the Atman or what in reality is the life energy within us. Why is that important? Because that is everything! If there is no life energy within us, then we are dead, then there is nothing. The only thing that truly exists is this life energy which is us, but which we don’t realize. We think that we are the body, we are the mind, when in reality we are the Spirit. Therefore, Spirituality is the study of the Spirit. It is being conscious of who we truly are. If we do not follow a life that is Spiritual or rather being that life energy, that Soul or the Atman, then...

Maya – The Cosmic Illusion

People on the journey of spiritual enlightenment often wonder why it is difficult to realize the truth. The truth is not difficult to realize. In fact, it is very simple. However, we are unable to realize the truth because our own mind, which is under the spell of Maya, a Cosmic Illusion, refuses to accept the truth. What is Maya? Maya is a very powerful “Ignorance” that envelopes humanity. The word Maya itself means “illusion” – the illusion that everything in this world is real as we see it. The world “appears” to be real because of Maya. This is easily understood when it is compared to a dream. Is a dream real or unreal? Of course, it is unreal. Nothing that happened in a dream actually happened. When the body sleeps, the mind traverses in imagination...
