Now, my spiritual geography might be different than yours. When I think of God, or when I look for God, I look in the inner spaces of my own being. I remember when I used to look outside for God. I confess that I didn’t really know where to look. I’d look up toward the sky, and if there were clouds, I’d wonder, “Well, which one is God on?” And if the sky were clear, well, in that vast space, where would I find God? – Gurudevi Nirmalananda

When you live from this inner dimensionality, no matter what happens, you sail right through it. You've got a deep keel. You walk and talk, you live in the world, you do things and share your life with others, but they do not make you who you are. You bring the whole of you into everything you do but you're never limited by those things, nor by other people’s ideas of who or what you should be. You know you are more. You know your own Self.

Being a yogi in the world doesn’t mean withdrawing from the world. What seems to be only a mundane world is divinely designed to engage you fully. When you ground your sense of self in the deeper dimension of your own being, you are you, even in the midst of life’s realities. Bring the light of your own Being into the world.

That’s why everything we do here is to give you this extraordinary inner experience, the experience of God within. God being you. This is the experience of your own Self. This is what meditation is about, and all of yoga’s other wonderful practices. From poses through breathing, chanting, seva, and certainly the study of the teachings, they all prepare you for this experience. The whole point is for you to have an experience of your own Self. – Gurudevi Nirmalananda

When you shine with the light of Consciousness, you bring that light into your life and into the world. You become an agent of light. You’re not a messenger of light. A messenger carries a message from someone else. This light doesn’t belong to someone else. It’s your light. It’s the light of your own being.
