Prosperity brings purificationi
A spiritual discourse on the meaning of a mantra and the inner light of consciousness.
"Oṁ is that where we are with all... 'Namaḥ' also means 'I bow down.' I offer naman towards you, my Lord, my God."
"Prakāś is the light. But light, what we call this, not this lamp, not this sūrya light. Light that is beyond that light."
A spiritual teacher leads a session, chanting the "Oṁ Namaḥ Śrī Prabhu Dīpa Nārāyaṇam" mantra and explaining its components. He delves into the nature of the inner light (prakāś), using analogies of nerve systems and electrical currents to describe spiritual awakening. The talk weaves together interpretations of sacred names, personal anecdotes about his Guru, and warnings against ego and competition in spiritual practice.
