- Sound Bite: All Religions & Traditions
He said, “This yoga is not a Guru cult, but in every field, one needs a guide. On the spiritual path, too, a Guru is necessary. At certain times in one’s life, healers, psychologists, psychics and professors may all be necessary. In the same way, in spiritual life, one needs a guide.” If you want what the Guru has to give, then you see that the Guru has it, and offers it. That moves you in deep ways. – Gurudevi Nirmalananda

- 05/08/22 ChitiShakti MaChitiShakti is the power of universal Consciousness, recognized as the Divine Mother. She is the primal force hidden within us all.

In this illuminating satsang from Gurudevi Nirmalananda you will learn why we honor the Divine Mother on Mother’s Day.Join Gurudevi online at her next Meditation Program.29 min
- Sound Bite: Who You Really Are
Do you really think that you still are who you were as a child? How long ago was that — a few years or maybe even decades ago?… I see you differently. I see the light shining through you. I see the light of Consciousness shining as you. Can’t you see who you really are? – Gurudevi Nirmalananda

1 min - 5/1/2022 Looking in the Right DirectionIt is the feeling of need that causes the suffering, even when you don’t really need the thing you think you need. Freedom is the opposite – freedom from need brings freedom from suffering. Freedom is also the inner space to be creative, to be generous, to be loving and understanding, to live in the spontaneity of pure bliss. Freedom is the goal, clearly defined in yoga’s teachings and texts… - Gurudevi NirmalanandaJoin Gurudevi online at her next Meditation Program.36 min

2 min - All Religions and Traditions
All religions and traditions are worthy of honor, respect, even appreciation, for they bring light into the world - each in their own way. All who serve in those traditions are worthy of great respect, for they serve that light, and give themselves over to making a difference in the world. All Holy days are worthy of being celebrated, for they are, well, holy days. And how precious it is to have a day to honor God, and all that you hold as Holy. – Gurudevi Nirmalananda

Where will you go to find your Self? Gurudevi says to start with your heart but then go deeper. Your heart is an entry point into the mystical heart of Beingness Itself. To get there: 1) meditate and repeat mantra to work with your mind (right understanding), and 2) receive Shaktipat (Guru’s Grace) to live in the unwavering awareness that is the knowing of the Self. Then you’ll experience a heart that is big enough to hold the whole universe and all that are in it.
