Most people understand the Path of Brahmacharya as the Path of Celibacy. According to Acharya Shree Yogeesh, this translation is incomplete. Acharya Shree challenges people to see the Path of Brahmacharya as abstaining from everything that keeps you away from the soul -- not just lust or sex. Brahmacharya needs to be understood versus controlled. When you control, there is tension, but when you understand, you accept and flow. It's important to have a discipline of your senses and be aware of temptations that take you off the path. Acharya Shree wraps up the 8-day Paryushan 2020 series and reminds us that right vision, right knowledge, and right conduct lead to liberation.

Acharya Shree describes the paths of renunciation and non-possession, which go together. According to Acharya Shree, the great people renounce the world. It is important to renounce which is not you or yours -- your anger, emotions, thoughts, negativities, and lower qualities. Renunciation is freedom. Even people who do not have any possessions can still renounce. It's an inner phenomenon and lifestyle. The path of non-possession is also important for the spiritual path. It doesn't mean to live a life of poverty, it means to not be attached to inner and outer things, people, and situations. All possessions control you and can cause you stress. When you become non-attached and non-possessive, you are always satisfied, live in peace, and experience freedom.

Acharya Shree Yogeesh dives into paths of discipline which helps keep the senses and mind-controlled by the soul. Discipline is the key to enlightenment and liberation because without it your body, mind, addictions, senses, thirst for pleasure will continue to dominate your life and keep you away from knowing the soul. The body, mind, and speech need to be disciplined. The path of spiritual practices helps supplement the path of discipline. Spiritual practices such as fasting, mantras, studying under an enlightened one help one invite and burn karma so that the heaviness of ignorance is removed from the soul. Acharya Shree gives examples of inner and outer practices.

Acharya Shree shares the importance of keeping the body, mind, and soul pure through the Path of Purity. Specifically, in this podcast, Acharya Shree teaches about the different types of greediness. Most people do not think they are greedy, but it is greed which is one of the reasons most people suffer. Seekers need to be more content and satisfied with life to lead a peaceful life.

Acharya Shree Yogeesh dives deep into explaining deceitfulness and lies, which takes one away from their own innocence and flow. When a person deceives others, in truth, they are deceiving themselves. Deceitfulness is one of the kshayas, clouds, which cover the soul. And it is important that Karma doesn't forgive anyone -- it will always come back to you. The Path of Innocence is a backward journey to unlearn what others have taught you and given to you -- your mind and ideology -- and bring you to your innocent, childlike self where you were able to flow and live simply. Acharya Shree also covers the main blockages of liberation as it relates to maya -- illusion, deceitfulness.

In this podcast, Acharya Shree inspires you to go to the root of issues and face your challenges. Acharya Shree discusses how suppressed problems often go unnoticed unless triggered by an outside cause. Because we exaggerate problems and magnify them unnecessarily, it creates negativity within us. It is better to learn how to face challenges in life, in a positive and optimistic way, versus being affected by it. According to Acharya Shree, problems are like a pinch of ashes placed into a cup of milk. The ashes should not take away the flavor of the milk. Unfortunately, people get so affected by problems, make them bigger than what they are, resist and suppress their problems, and because of this people do not heal, they cannot flow, they are constantly stressed, all which lead to a weakened immune system which makes them susceptible to disease and other health issues.

Acharya Shree Yogeesh reminds listeners that what is most important is having LIFE, a human body, a precious instrument that needs to be taken care of. Money is a material thing...it comes and goes. No matter what stay positive, be creative, trust yourself that you will figure out how to overcome economic hardship, whether it's a loss of business, losing your job, or being without a steady income. What matters most is being positive. The more we are positive, collectively, the sooner the Coronavirus/COVID-19 will be less and less. Acharya Shree also talks about how to make decisions amidst confusion, despair and fear and WHY this is all happening -- the Karma side of things.
