Jun 2011 | i met a man whom i never felt so much connection and charge. After many years of friendship we remembered a past life experience we shared. In it i suffered a violent death and he was unable to save me. I loved him dearly and it was painful. I came to believe that we met to heal this experience in this life. I realize a part of me felt like he "owed" me something. I felt alot of anger when he wouldn't give me what i wanted. It triggered old wounds. How can i invite healing into this place ? |

Apr 2011 | Hello. Sometimes I feel i'm cursed. I'm 39 years old, never married, never even had a proper relationship. I'm not a bad person and I always think good of others and try to help. Why is God treating me like this? I'm not even fussy, asking for a rich man, etc. Just a kind man who is compatible with me... Why is it so easy for others to just meet someone special, fall in love and get marry but for me not even a date?

Jan 2011 | 1. If prarabhdh is to be exhausted by every human being, how do we go about it? Which teachings will show us the way and/or assist us? How to find & understand them?
2. Life on earth appears to be getting more and more difficult/complex every second with social, political, economic and climatic crises.

Dec 2010 | From years of experiencing life, I have found out that God does not always give us what we want but gives us what we need. After years of having materialistic desires, I have decided that it is better to ask for 'purity of heart' and 'purity of bhakti'. My quandary is 'why is He taking so long even to give me this dharmic desire? |
Dec 2010 | I have changed my life because of my yoga and meditation practice. I was an attorney and am now a therapist and yoga teacher in portland oregon USA area. Because of the break with my teacher here, Swami Chetanananda, I have had a very hard time finding another teacher and have studied vedanta on my own for years. Yet I feel lost, in need of a stronger soul to guide me. Can you suggest any other teachers in this area? I am stuck but do finally feel ready for another teacher. Debbi |

Dec 2010 | Hari om Shubhraji. I am Andrew (from the study group in Berlin with P.R.). My question refers to "Self-Unfoldment" page 132: "None of the other sheaths has access to the bliss sheath", which consists of vasanas. But it seems to me that for example the things I eat and the way I use my breath changes my vasanas, and also my intellect can modify my vasanas. My body and my mind: they don't want to be victims of my vasanas, having no chance to change them. Thank You for your presence, intellect... |
Dec 2010 | Hari Om: In Swamiji's "Self-Unfoldment" he tells us to use Mantra to help with concentration. He mentions Vedantic Mantras such as Tat tvam asi - That thou art. Is it more important to focus on the Sanskrit phrase (for it's vibrational benefits) OR to focus on the meaning of the phrase in English? |

Jan 2010 | What is the difference between being realistic and negative?
I know someone who works for a bank and during the current environment he is very pessimistic and people keeps saying he is negative. But my friend says he is being realistic and if he had been so positive then he would have spent/blown a lot of money and it would have been a problem for him.. Because he accepted the negativeness - he was able to best prepare for the current moment. So is he being negative? Is that wrong?
