Wisdom Teachings - Sat Yoga, Costa Rica

In this discourse on deliverance from desire and dharma, the force vectors of suffering are deconstructed so that the desperation and depression of the lacking ego can be put to permanent rest. A simple error of logic knots Eros to Thanatos in the deflated heart.

This teaching is taken from our most recent retreat, The Secret of Instant Illumination! The Complete Audio-Video Retreat Teachings Package is now available: https://bit.ly/instant--illumination   You have to grok this paradox: You must want Illumination, but wanting will never reach it. The wanting must morph into surrender. Surrender even wanting. More than that, surrender the thought that there is anyone separate from God who must surrender. When there is no I-thought and no sense of Other or world—as in deep sleep but fully awake—the Self is realized and nothing else remains, or ever was.

The Light of God is always shining. But the ego mind has turned away from the Source and is lost in the darkness of delusion. This is the moment that the Supreme Self has chosen to return, bringing all souls back to the eternal stillness and peace of the Infinite Merciful Heart of the Real. For the ego, this will seem like world destruction, while for the illumined souls, this is the moment of redemption. The end is also the new beginning. The Kingdom of Heaven awaits those who surrender all to the Lord in humble adoration. Make use of this window of greatest opportunity while it is open. In this teaching, the seven secret teachings of Shiva are explained in depth. These keys will unlock the intellect’s ability to transcend the false self-identity and rise as soul-consciousness into the blissful unmanifest Divine Presence.

Once it is recognized that the apparent world is only the mind engaged in dreaming, then the nonduality of consciousness and its contents can be understood and its vast implications can be unfolded. But it can take some time to digest and integrate all the binaries (the polarities, like good and evil, immanent and transcendent) in order to gain accurate knowledge that brings freedom from suffering—even the awareness that there is no suffering, since the world and the whole seeming multiplicity of sentient inhabitants are unreal. The sticking point is the resistance to recognizing that you, as a being in the world, are also unreal. The delusional mental apparatus must be terminated.

In this teaching Shunyamurti is reading from The Vajra Essence, Düdjom Lingpa’s Visions of The Great Perfection, Volume 3, Foreword by Sogyal Rinpoche, Translated by B. Alan Wallace, Edited by Dion Blundell Description: The final period of every cycle of time is one of spiritual exhaustion, the soul’s exile from the Light of God, the ego’s nihilistic cynicism combined with narcissistic hubris, and the ominous approach of world destruction. We have arrived at that time. Fortunately, every spiritual tradition declares that such a hell realm is actually the most auspicious moment of all, for that is when the Inner Light returns—first only for a few—but then more and more souls become illumined. This is the true Festival of Lights. It is happening.

The whirlwind of accelerating catastrophic change is wreaking havoc on the world, collapsing whole nations and blowing apart all the social structures and safety nets that we took for granted. But all this is a blessing if we choose to take refuge with the One Unchanging Self. Leave impermanence behind and connect with the Supreme Intelligence directing all this, morphing the world from a hell realm into a paradise for divine, luminous beings. The best job available now is to work for the Creator.

The ego-mind is conditioned and controlled by its habitual drives and thought patterns that prevent self-transformation. But through accurate analysis and understanding that arises from archetypal symbolic wisdom, one can unveil the profound Presence of God obscured by the ego’s incoherence.

This teaching is taken from All’s Well That Ends Well: The Re-Marriage of Shakti and Shiva ~ Get all 8 satsangs and guided meditations from this extraordinary retreat: https://bit.ly/all--well Description: As we grow psychologically and spiritually, our understanding and appreciation of love evolve into more altruistic modes of expression and unconditional inclusion, until infinite love is attained. This is the glory of divinization and the completion of our pilgrimage through many lives to the real essence of who we are.

The best alternative to living in a society of narcissistic egos is to move into nonduality. There is, after all, only one Real Self. Why be crowded when you can enjoy infinite spaciousness?

Mastery of our two inherent powers, or siddhis, of shining with supernal light and knowing through reflective awareness is the key to redemption in this auspicious time when God is euthanizing a world in its terminal phase of degradation, suffering, and madness. We must come to accept the outrageous nonduality of good and evil. That may be the most difficult challenge.

Every moment is priceless as the world hurtles toward the Eschaton. The highest priority of yogis must now be such intense and one-pointed adoration of the Supreme Self that we earn the grace of liberation from our bondages to the illusory ego and its attachments. It is now or never.

The holy night of Christmas is a mythical representation of your own metamorphosis from human to divine.

Only then can the mind grok the awesome truth that you are consciousness that has never been born and will never die. But the mental program of the ego must be eliminated to sustain the attunement to the Real. This teaching is exemplified in the fundamental tantra of the Dzogchen lineage.

The vampire is your ego. It produces incoherent and delusional attitudes that keep one paralyzed in the holographic nightmare. There is only one way to defeat a vampire.

Partial love is the cause of evil. Total love brings salvation. But there is no escape from love. The end of the world is love’s last laugh. But since love is eternal, the end is always a new beginning. Don’t you love it?

The Yogacara school of Buddhism asserts that we all have three natures. The first is imaginary, made up of projections of the ego. The second is other-dependent, which is equally unreal—but focused on the superego and its appendage, the external Other. Fortunately, we also have a third nature, and this is our sovereign freedom. This state of Self-realization is beyond duality and intellectual conception.

The Immanent-Transcendent Real can be recognized and attained through the help of symbols. The traditional iconography related to the most ancient portrayals of the Supreme Beingness in the form of Shiva—whether as lingam, as yogi, or as the Lord of Dance. Recorded on the evening of Thursday, August 13, 2009.
