Curiously ForeverHow to have Peace of Mind by Sadguru Madhusudan Sai, narrated by Prashant MavaniIn the phrase, ‘I want peace’, there are three words and they must be considered carefully. There is this ‘I’, and then there is ‘want’, and finally there is ‘peace’. If you want peace, you have to get rid of both ‘I’ and the ‘want’, and what remains is ‘peace’. How to remove ‘I’? When you think more of God, there will be less of ‘I’, which means you will think less of yourself. It is only love for God that can remove ego from our minds. To live in this world, you need to have some desires. But when you breach all limits of desire...2022-02-2402 min

The true meaning of Brahma Vidya (Knowledge of the Ultimate)When we look around, we notice many objects around us. Yet, we tend not to notice the light with which everything is lit up.Likewise, ātman is everywhere, our Self is everywhere, inside, outside and everywhere. We see and experience everything using that Self. Yet we don’t see the Self.In this episode, Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai teaches us that It is really not hiding anywhere. But it appears to be hiding, just as the spectacles appear to have gone missing though they are right there, resting on the forehead. It is only that we...2022-01-1422 minKathopanishad12. Adhyatma YogaWhether we practise karma yoga, bhakti yoga or jñāna yoga – we should examine the true motivation behind our actions. Are the homas, the seva and the prayers/bhajans really solely to please God/atman? Or are we doing it to achieve or attain some kind of returns for ourselves – by pleasing our mind and body? If it is the latter then, that is not ādhyātma.ādhyātma, Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai says, is another word for spirituality. Spirituality is not about anything outside of you. Spirituality is everything about who You really are, and findin...2022-01-0643 minKathopanishad11. The Truth behind all the ExistenceWhen a movie is played at a cinema hall, it is projected onto a blank screen. Likewise, what appears to be real in our lives is in fact only a ‘projection on the screen’. What is real is only the blank screen. Everything else that comes and goes is false.Likewise, we are like a blank screen on which different roles are projected. In this episode, Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai methodically instructs us on the panchakosa-viveka to bring us slowly to the Truth of who we really are. ātman is the screen, which does not change...2022-01-0339 minKathopanishad9. Vedanta for Permanent BlissThe ignorant man continuously chases after everything that is temporary.In this episode, Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai teaches that out of the temporary, the permanent cannot be attained. Temporary attainments can only give temporary results. A castle of sand is as temporary as the sand itself. Nachiketa clearly understood this. And that is why he did not yield to the tricks of Yama to get him to stop asking him for the Truth.Understanding the core Truth of vedanta is the only path to permanent bliss.If you'd like to get t...2021-12-2746 minKathopanishad8. Always choose Shreyas (Good) over Preyas (Pleasant)One of the most important teachings is shared by Yama to Nachiketa in this episode. The concept of two paths that appear before man at all times. śreyaḥ and preyaḥ.preyaḥ is the path that appears pleasant, but is essentially not good for the seeker.śreyaḥ is the path that is good for the seeker, although it may appear to be unpleasant at first.Both of these bind you, as the seeker.

Seven qualities of a spiritual seekerAlthough in this day and age, vedantic texts are accessible easily through various mediums at the touch of a button, the Truth as taught in vedanta, is not to be taken lightly.In the past, spiritual seekers had to prove their readiness and make great efforts in order to be deemed worthy of receiving the knowledge from their gurus.

Five qualities of a good studentIn the Gita, Lord Krishna says “The one who has śraddhā alone is entitled to knowledge.”Through the Kathopanishad, we are shown the qualities which the young Nachiketa embodies – these are the qualities that all seekers of the Truth should imbibe.Further, Sri Adi Shankara says, “In the śāstras, the scriptures, and in the guruvākya, whatever the guru tells, whoever has sattva buddhi, pure mindedness, who believes in that, such a person is called śraddhāvān.”In this episode, Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai clearly elaborates on the five qualities which every student of the div...2021-11-1450 minKathopanishad1. Four steps to become buddha (the enlightened one)In this episode, Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai dives directly into what He refers to as the main question posed by Nachiketa.

Scientists may say It does not exist. But Lord Yama says there is something that exists beyond the senses and the mind. So, is it true or is it not true?That is...2021-11-1356 minKathopanishad0.
