    In meditation there is no ego; there are no boundaries. Boundaries come when the spirit attaches itself to a desire, and then ego comes up to protect that. It’s all the play of ego, desire and intellect. Three things obscure our spirit:
  2. What is fear?

    Every seed has a membrane around it. That shell is there to protect the seed, but when you soak the seed in water, at some point the membrane breaks and the sprout come out of it. In the same way, fear is a mechanism around the life to protect it; at th ...
  3. Sometimes our elder in our homes asks us to do wrong things. How should we say no to them?

  4. Gurudev, when we chant a mantra continuously, will that mantra effect our body and life?

  9. Gurudev, I have not been doing my kriya for some time now and I feel I am taking you for granted. Please guide me. I am scared as I can’t afford to lose your love.

    You know my love is unconditional, but I will tell you something. If you at least sit and meditate for some time, you are not doing it for me, you are doing it for your own good. Whatever you can do, you do. Take out a little bit of time for yourself. T ...
  10. Gurudev, my best friend is always angry and irritated with me. What should I do so that she is always happy with me?
