“The teaching of yoga ends in knowledge, inner wisdom. There’s no other reason to do yoga. From that comes your own revelations of who you are and what you’re to do.”
In this satsang talk, Swami Radhananda continues from her last video post, “The Path of Liberation.” She speaks about her experience of the Kundalini system and encourages us to accept ourselves where we are and to engage our intuition by letting the symbols come alive and gain our own unique understanding.
“We are unique in the way we interpret the Kundalini system, because we’ve all had different life experiences. When we start to teach, we come from that place of knowing that the system is going to work, and that what we know from our own experience is what will help others too.”
Following the recent Kundalini & Dream Teacher Certification, Swami Radhananda gave a satsang talk about her first experiences of the Kundalini system while taking a course led by Swami Radha, called The Path of Liberation. In this video, she reads from her upcoming book of memoirs and invites us to open the kundalini symbols for ourselves and bring them to life.
“Everybody has that choice, to stay connected, to do what your heart desires. It may take you down a path you never thought.”
In this satsang talk, Swami Radhananda reads an excerpt from her upcoming book, sharing how she followed the signs to live at Yasodhara Ashram for two years to be closer to Swami Radha, and how this choice set her on a path of sincerity, devotion and commitment to Divine Mother.
“Everybody starts at the beginning.” In this satsang talk, Swami Radhananda reads from the manuscript of her upcoming book. The book is based on reflections from her diary, spanning the time she has spent at the Ashram, including her first arrival in the 1970’s and the years of learning with her guru, Swami Radha. The excerpt that she reads traces the beginnings of her spiritual life, of her first steps on Ashram grounds, being introduced to yogic practices and reflection. She revisits many of the questions that she had begun asking at the time: “What does it mean to be a woman? Who am I?”
“It’s the depth of your understanding that counts and then it’s up to you. Don’t just skim the top, the surface. Go deeper with your understanding.”
In this satsang talk, Swami Radhananda speaks about the process of creating her upcoming book and the practice of reflection. The book is based on her reflections since first arriving at the Ashram in the 1970’s. (more…)
