We are eternal
An evening satsang on spiritual oneness and the guru-disciple relationship.
"For only a certain time do we think in terms of 'mine,' 'yours,' and 'theirs.' And then, my dears, that will go away."
"It is like rain falling. There are many drops... But they come together, and all drops unite to become the water that is flowing."
The lecturer addresses a gathering, expounding on the fundamental unity of all beings using the metaphor of raindrops merging into the ocean. He shares a parable of a yogi and a skeptical professor to illustrate divine wisdom, and recounts personal stories and a disciple's dream about their guru, Swami Madhavanandji Bhagavan, emphasizing the eternal bond beyond physical presence. The talk blends teachings on non-duality with devotional remembrance on the anniversary of the guru's samadhi.
