How To Overcome The Ego? By Dr. Harsh K. Luthar

Bhagavan Sri Ramana used to say that all techniques of meditation and concentration presuppose the retention of the ego/mind. Bhagavan used to joke that employing the ego/mind to overcome the ego/mind is like hiring a thief, who is all dressed up as a policeman, to catch the thief. The policeman will pretend to make herculean efforts to catch the thief, give periodic reports of progress, but will fail each time (since the policeman is the thief!)

VIMALAKIRTI NIRDESA SUTRA -
The Dharma-Door of Nonduality

translated by Robert A. F. Thurman
copyright 1976, The Pennsylvania State University

The sutra tells the story of the lay householder Vimalakirti who lives a worldly life while following the bodhisattva path, and it is famous for its razor-sharp dialogue and paradox about non-duality. It is also renowned for ridiculing those who believe women to be inferior to men on the spiritual path.

Satsang- Its indescribable and it has no language

Satsang is literally “in the company of truth.” Satsang is a meeting in truth honoring our unchanging true nature – the reality of solid spaciousness. In the late 1990s, Stuart attended satsang with Robert Adams, an American jnani (knower of truth) who became his mentor. Stuart often speaks of the strength of Robert’s presence and is most grateful to Robert and his guru, the revered Ramana Maharshi, the sage of Arunachala. Being drawn to pilgrimage to Ramana’s ashram in South India in 2005, Stuart feels it is the depth and power of Ramana’s silence that supports all knowledge of our true nature. According to Stuart, “When we take our attention off the individual we experience something miraculous – our nature, our essence, and that is a

Ramana Maharshi – Quotes

Quotes accompanied by images of Sri Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi the ‘Sage of Arunachala’

Ramana Maharshi realized the Self at the age of 16, drawn to mount Arunachala he remained there his whole life. Many of the spiritual masters of today are heavily influenced by Sri Ramana’s revival of self inquiry, a timeless teaching where the question of ones true identity is the main focus. Ramana relentlessly pointed seekers & devotees to find out the true nature of the Self. Who they are.
The path ‘Who am i?’ being the most universally applicable method and most potent & direct path to truth possible, indicates that Ramana Maharshi was one of, if not the greatest Sage our planet earth has ever seen.

Enter the Mandala of Awakening

Integral Mahamudra: Enter the Mandala of Awakening (Patrick Sweeney) from Integral Life on Vimeo.

In this video, patrick Sweeney opens the Integral Mahamudra seminar of 2007. As he talks throughout this video, a central theme arises. Whether he talks about the importance and meaning of a bow, or waking up to the life that you have as opposed to the life that you want, it all leads back to an invitation; an invitation to step out of the Mandala of Confusion and into the Mandala of Awakening. Do you want to take that step with us?

Patrick Sweeney is the lineage holder of the Karma Kagyü lineage, given by the Vidyadhara, Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. He is also the head of Satdharma—meaning “genuine dharma”—a Buddhist organization created with the purpose of propagating Chögyam Trungpa’s unique transmission.

What is a spiritual seeker seeking?

Be the change you want to see in the world. Don’t keep what you have learned in a box and keep it to yourself. Share it and help others, so they can escape the misery produced by their delusional mind.

Eckhart Tolle, “What is my Responsibility?”

Everything is naturally perfect just as it is.

All phenomena appear in their uniqueness as part of the continually changing pattern. These patterns are vibrant with meaning and significance at every moment; yet there is no
significance to attach to such meanings beyond the moment in which they
present themselves.

This is the dance of the five elements in which matter is
a symbol of energy and energy a symbol of emptiness. We are a symbol of
our own enlightenment.

Nisargadartta Maharaj: A Meditation on Continuity

Here is a dialogue from the famous book, I am That, by Nisargadatta Maharaj, 65: A Quiet Mind is All You Need:

Q:  Does not the knower know itself?

M:  The mind is discontinuous.  Again and again it blanks out, like in sleep or swoon, or distraction.  There must be something continuous to register discontinuity.

Q:  The mind remembers.  This stands for continuity.
M:  Memory is always partial, unreliable and evanescent.  It does not explain the strong sense of identity pervading consciousness, the sense of  ‘I am’.

Metta Sutta
( Discourse on Loving-kindness )
U Nandiya

Once the Bhagava ( Lord Buddha) was staying at the Jetavana monastery in the pleasance of Anathapindika at Savatthi. A group of monks received permission from the Lord to meditate in a distant forest during the period of Buddhist Lent. Each of the monks took shelter under a big tree as a temporary residence and an engaged themselves intensively in the practice of meditation.

On account of the spiritual power of their meditation, the tree deities could not stay in their trees-abodes above the monks, so they had to come down to the ground. Realizing that the monks would spend the whole rainy season there, the deities were much annoyed. So they tried to scare the monks away during the night by harassing them in various ways.
