A New Cycle of Construction and Restoration at SRSG
2 August, 2018 @ 5:00 pm
Swami Rama Sadhaka Grama has been said to be the heart center of our beloved Swami Veda Bharati-ji, and embodies his vision for a spiritual home to which our Guru brothers and sisters could return for their sadhana, with their families and children. It has been nearly two decades since it was first realized in brick and mortar. The buildings, though old, are imbued with stories of every meditation with Swami Ji, of all the Gurukulam lectures, of every teacher in training, of Ma Tara and Sadhakeshwar Mahadeva, of Mother Mary and the Buddha Himself, of joy and laughter, of stillness and silence, and resonate with Swamiji’s voice and the mantras which continue to be strengthened each day.
Was there a reason why Swami Rama taught us to start the relaxation from crown to toes?
21 July, 2018 @ 9:26 pm
I was once in a class with Swami Rama who was asked why he started relaxation at the head and he said (I'm paraphrasing), first relax the brain, then the rest of the body relaxes more quickly and deeply.
Are the powers described it the book “Living with the Himalayan masters” still exist in the tradition?
23 June, 2018 @ 9:32 pm
Theses powers or siddhis are within all of us. “They” are powers of God Himself. Once one becomes realized (Realization of Self) then powers are experienced or siddhis are available to use.
How come a Swami is practicing external rituals?
22 May, 2018 @ 9:41 pm
A Swami is free. S/he is under no obligation either to perform or not to perform rituals. The point is whether one is attached to their action.
What is the role of the personal mantra in yoga?
23 April, 2018 @ 9:52 pm
When one is doing the mantra all else takes secondary importance and the mental repetition is all that matters - it also helps to remove ideas of 'ego' as it dwells only on sound. Once that concentration is mastered the other subtle reasons reveal themselves and there would not arise the question asked.
The Words of My Master
2 April, 2018 @ 9:30 pm
God’s Providence, like the blue sky, is forever above us all. And so, after searching for two decades, it was Divine Providence that led me to my Guru, Sri Swami Rama. It all started after I read Paramahansa Yogananda’s Autobiography of a Yogi in the late 1960s. That book inspired me to join the Self Realization Fellowship (SRF) program of the Yogoda Satsang Society founded by Yogananda. However, my search for a living Guru continued because SRF’s distance learning material could not fulfill my yearning for direct spiritual guidance.
I am lost. I believe meditation can heal. I fear I am too lost. Can you help me?

Indeed, meditation will help but before you embark on meditation I would suggest that you go there Hatha Yoga and then breathing. Then meditation will begin to help the mind. It will give you clarity and intuition to move to the right direction.
Could you shower your guidance on Asana perfection?

You are doing the asana only with your body, first do it in your mind, master it there, breathe, then let it flow into your body.
Deepening Your Sadhana
2 February, 2018 @ 9:49 pm
Let’s pay homage to the Guru Lineage. Let’s connect with their minds. Take the awareness through the presence of the Guru by the Guru Mantra, your personal mantra, your personal mantra reciting in your mind for a moment. Then join me for Guru Shanti and then we’ll begin: gurur brahmā gurur viṣhṇur gurur devo maheśhvaraḥ guruḥ sākṣhāt param brahmā tasmai śhrī-gurave namaḥ Om! Śhāntiḥ! Śhāntiḥ! Śhāntiḥ!
