Student Question: How Can We Understand the Collapsing State of Our World?

MAHA SHIVA RATRI SPECIAL: Enjoy this teaching on Maha Shiva Ratri, given by Shunyamurti, that reflects on the significance of this Holy Day.

Student Question: How Do We Use the Energy of Romantic Love to Achieve Real Love?

Shunyamurti speaks to the state of the world and the role that we have to transform it, not to fall into despair, but understand the significance of this historic moment.

Shunyamurti explains that the central myth of Western culture was expressed best by Dante in The Divine Comedy, in which he describes the three levels/worlds that the ego must traverse, going on to describe the levels of consciousness of ego, soul, and Spirit, and moving beyond the egoic hell realm into the heavenly realm of Spirit.

Shunyamurti speaks about the seven phase shifts that occur during one's meditation practice and gives seven helpful tips for the spiritual journey.

Shunyamurti reads from Padamalai, commenting on the wealth of grace vs the earthly riches that the ego seeks, the problems with the capitalist system, the collapse of the market economy, the symbolism of the word "depression" for both the psyche and economy, the correlation of the loss of spiritual wealth and material wealth, and the creation of true wealth through love.

Shunyamurti explains how the capitalist system is a reflection of the ego, going into the upper and lower "debt drive", as well as discussing the state of the world, the koshas, and how the spiritual revolution is impossible but inevitable.

Shunyamurti speaks about the importance of integrating the teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi with those of Sri Aurobindo, as well as the insights of Nikola Tesla and Buckminster Fuller, and becoming an avatar.

NEW YEARS SPECIAL: Shunyamurti gives his message for 2020.

Shunyamurti explains the spiritual significance and hidden messages in The Wizard of Oz.

CHRISTMAS SPECIAL: Shunyamurti speaks about the true meaning of Christmas, of the relation of Christ to your real Self, the "I am", to which we affix various definitions, and of remaining in the pure "I am" that cannot be limited.

Shunyamurti explores "The Seven Clarifications of the Existential Dilemma".

Welcome to the be-dead-while-alive-stream, brought to you from the misty mountains of Costa Rica, from the Sat Yoga Ashram. Welcome to all of those who are attending the satsang online. We’re in the midst of our annual rainy season retreat here at the ashram, and we’ve been in relative silence for the last couple of weeks and with intense classes and meditations. So I’m sure that those who are here in this local space as well as those listening online will have interesting questions—no doubt profound questions about your own journey to Self-Realization. But actually, the whole process and the whole understanding is extremely simple, and really does not need to give rise to any questions—it should actually put all questions to an end. I think the ancient metaphor that’s most useful is simply that of the drop of rainwater that returns to the ocean. Perhaps a little more accurate would be a bubble of foam on a wave on the ocean, and when that ego bubble pops, there is only the ocean. And there was never anythi

Question: The idea of a spiritual revolution is one that’s gaining traction, and the next retreat here in December is about that, it’s called “Advanced Training for Spiritual Revolutionaries”. So, my question is: what really is a spiritual revolutionary, and how will a spiritual revolution differ from the old revolutions that have come and gone and failed, whether political or pseudo-spiritual?

Shunyamurti explains the teachings that cannot be taught as well as how the world is unreal.

Shunyamurti reads again from the Padamalai, specifically focusing on Ramana's view on hatha yoga and its shortcomings, proposing instead atma vichara rather than trying to make effort to control the mind, which is always an effort of the mind itself.
