🌟 Essential Teachings in the Arkaya Practice 🌟

In this episode, Yogacharini Maitreyi dives into the meaning of “Swarūpa,” explaining it as “our essential nature, the true self beyond all roles and identities.” She guides listeners through the chant “Om Shivoham, Shivoham, Shivoham, Satchidananda Swarūpam,” sharing how it reminds us that our real essence is Shiva—the pure consciousness that is existence, knowledge, and bliss. Maitreyi gently unpacks how repeating this chant helps us peel away layers of conditioning and reconnect to the unchanging presence within. Join her as she invites you to reflect on the question, “If I’m not my roles, my thoughts, or my emotions…then who am I?”—opening a path to deeper peace and self-awareness.
