#Guru tells to never stop learning. His Guru, #Shivabalayogi, the greatest consciousness to ever set foot on the planet told Him that. Shri #Babaji is today's #Adi #Shankaracharya. The truth requires no certification. #Advaita #Vedanta There is no other. It is that It is. Pranam Great One! #JAI!

THE HERETIC

A kind of loneliness comes from being misunderstood by your family. My mother wants me to do Sandhya Vandanam. Chant the Gayatri Mantra. Face east. Fold my hands the right way. She wants a performance she can witness and take credit for. I understand this. I refuse to comply. I am too tired and too old for rebellion. I call it self-preservation, a refusal to hollow out what little interior life I have managed to build by filling it with someone else's beliefs. They call me a heretic.. a […]

At a certain point, the direction seems clear.

You are looking for something.

It may be called different things:

Enlightenment.
Mokṣa.
Self-realization.

Or something simpler:

Relief.
Clarity.
An end to confusion.

But the movement is the same:
You are seeking.

Up to this point, something has become clear.

What is seen
changes.

What sees it does not appear in the same way.

It cannot be found as an object.

And yet, it is not absent.

Everything is still known.

⸻

This raises a quieter question.

How is this known?

#MissKittyWide She kept thinking and then she did get 26 minutes 🧘🏻‍♀️🧘🏻‍♀️🧘🏻‍♀️ LOL. It doesn't matter if #Jesus did #tapas or if He survived the #Crucifixion & went to NW #India to teach more. Maybe one of the reasons they couldn't go where He went. #Advaita #John14:20 The Merger. Perfect circle no circle.

What, exactly, are we speaking about here?

Why all this indirect language?

“That which remains.” “What is doing the questioning?” “What knows this?”

And it is not an idea.

This—whatever we are circling around— is neither.

You can't learn Qigong from reading — not even from reading this.

If you're here, you just watched something. A body moving in a way that probably looked unfamiliar — slower than you expected, or differently weighted, or oddly attentive in the hands. You may not have known what to do with it. That's fine. You weren't supposed to.
