Purify your body from poison
A spiritual discourse on the Viśuddhi chakra, happiness, and internal purification.
"Happiness is within ourselves. Peace is within ourselves. And unhappiness is from outside."
"It is said that in life, when we walk... beside you is walking your death. You can see it is like the shadow, the shadow of your body."
Swami Anand Arun leads an evening satsang, exploring the sources of happiness and unhappiness through analogies and stories. He uses the parable of a couple's 50-year misunderstanding over a piece of bread to illustrate how unspoken resentments act as a poison, stored in the Viśuddhi (purification) chakra. The talk connects this to the myth of Shiva consuming the cosmic poison, advocating for forgiveness, clear communication, and daily pranayama to purify this negative energy and prevent physical and emotional ailments.
