The Process of Samprajnata to Asamprajnata Samadhi #88
It could be said that the four kinds of samadhis (along with their nirvitarka and nirvichara subdivisions) are like postures for the mind, like asanas for intelligence. The purpose for engaging in physical postures and breathing exercises all along the early trajectory of yogic practice was only to help prepare the way for these higher positions of Awareness. It has been stated by certain luminaries that spiritual life does not really even begin until the seeded samadhis are gained by way of direct experience; everything previous to this highest attainment only signified various types of purification. If this is true, then seeded samadhis can be viewed as similar preparation and purification for Ultimate Samadhi — of which there is only one, of unseeded nature
Insinuation of the Five Kleshas in Spiritual Life #209
In Patanjali’s authentic Yoga, the seer gives us his short list of the most detrimental impediments that stand in the way of following and attaining to Yoga — Union with Reality. These are the five kleshas, interpreted later by the Father of Vedanta as five hells in which the ignorant minds dwells. Thus, heaven is not up in space, and hell is not down under the ground; they both reside in the human mind. Taking to certain yogic disciplines advised by Patanjali is the way out of hell. It is also the way beyond heaven to blissful transcendence. Putting the five kleshas down and systematically climbing the eight limbs of the eternal tree is all that separates the soul from realization.
The Two Yogas of the Matri Avatar #141
The advent of Sri Sarada Devi on the earth signals the visitation the most rare of beings — a manifestation of the Goddess. The Goddess, in this case, means The Divine Mother of the Universe has taken a birth in human form so as to help all beings with their respective aims and goals. Some She will assist in fulfilling their desires; others She will release from the ocean of suffering (samsara sagara); still others She will grant liberation from the cycle of birth and death completely. There is no end to the possibilities once She is recognized by the embodied soul, and taken as the Supreme Refuge in life. As She lived Her life in the mid 1800’s and on into the early 1900’s, Holy Mother, as She is now addressed by millions, had Her own unique style of bringing about Her subtle miracles for the highest good of mankind. Though extremely versatile in Her abilities and application, two special Yogas characterized Her effective work and teachings throughout Her life in the body. This dharma chart shows the dynamics of each of them. By studying and applying them, living beings can not only make inner contact with Her, but can also free themselves from root ignorance and take their places among the realized souls of this world.
8 Limbs of Yoga #55
Widely known among all of Mother India’s wide expanse of spiritual systems, Patanjala, the Eight-Limbed Yoga – also known as Raja Yoga and Ashtanga Yoga – represents the very essence of the art of spiritual practice for the many aspiring souls seeking Truth. Beginning with the five Yamas and five Niyamas, which are so often and mistakenly overlooked by novitiate practitioners seeking to experiment with the practices of hatha and asana alone, the path of authentic Yoga is laid out as its founder, Lord Patanjali, envisioned it – all the way to the top of the tree where the branches of mankind’s highest Consciousness shine in the scintilating sun of Nondual Awareness.
