Devotion

Most people assume the path of bhakti yoga is the easiest because we think it is simple to love Bhagavan. But do we really love Him all the time, unconditionally, as He loves us? Find out how we can develop true devotion towards the One who is always giving and ever-loving by analyzing and internalizing verse twenty-two of the eighth chapter of the Holy Geeta guided by our very own Pujya Gurudev.

Forgive me

Bhagavan Shankaracharya was a consumate spiritual genius, poet, thinker, writer, crusader, advaitin and bhakta all rolled into one.

In this Hymn, Forgive me, the seeker is on the wholesale confessional mode – sincerely remorseful for relegating the Lord to an insignificant position in his life.

The greatest spiritual sin is amnesia of the One responsible for our very existence. Swami Chinmayananda’s vivid and lucid explanation makes this deceptively short text a cathartic release for any devotee. Just fourteen verses – but they lead up the devotee to a hysteric release and resurrection! Experience it for yourself!

Kaivalya Upanishad

The poetic diction, systematic development of thought, at once clear, concise and scientific in arrangement of highly philosophical ideas make Kaivalya Upanisad one of the most striking minor Upanisads. The great commentator Narayana calls the Kaivalya Upanisad as the Brahma Satarudriya i.e. the Satarudriya which glorifies the unconditioned Brahman as opposed to the personal God, Lord Siva of the original Satarudriya.

True to the Upanisadika style, where story form is considered as the most apt devise to make the subject easily intelligible to the readers, in this Upanisad Asvalayana, the great teacher of Rig Veda is a disciple and Lord Brahma, the Creator himself is the teacher, which makes this as the most valuable amongst the ‘minor’ Upanisads.

In short this teaching is an extravaganza of spiritual knowledge and meditation that guides a student step by step to the glorious state of immortality, peace and bliss.
