Yoga seminar in Vep, december 2008 (1/4)
The Guru Paramparā bestows the ultimate blessing: a chance to escape the cycle of birth and death. Meeting the Guru and receiving the lineage's knowledge is an immeasurable divine gift. The primary spiritual practice is the uninterrupted repetition of the Guru Mantra. This mantra destroys darkness, purifies the mind, opens the heart, and grants liberation from all bondage. Obedience to the guru is essential for receiving grace. A pilgrimage reveals teachings within nature itself. At a holy lake, the water demonstrated three core qualities: have no expectation, like still water; accept everything, as the shore receives all waves; and give constantly, like a flowing spring. These are the instructions for spiritual life.
"Through the repetition of the mantra day by day, I get the happiness of Brahmānanda."
"The light of Mahāprabhujī destroys all darkness."
