The Globe of the Self: Reflections on Ātmā, Jīva, and the One in All
A spiritual discourse and satsang on the nature of the self, consciousness, and existence.
"In this globe, immense of immense, how many jīvas. Jīvā means the soul."
"And that was what Holy Gurujī said: one in all and all in one. One in all and all in one, in which way I am now."
The lecturer leads an evening satsang, offering contemplative reflections on the ātmā (Self), the jīva (individual soul), and the interconnectedness of all life. He explores themes of meditation, the limitations of physical travel versus spiritual expansion, and the relationship between yogic science and worldly science, sharing personal anecdotes including a healing story. The session includes a guided energy exercise and concludes with devotional singing.
