RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

Arriving at Your Destination — Part 1

Is Spirit free to express in your daily life?

Swami Vivekananda taught that the importance of understanding that there is a great light within us which wants to shine forth. This light of the Infinite Spirit can express through your feelings, thoughts, words and actions. Discover how to seek and allow Infinite Spirit to express in a unique way through every thought, word, deed and action.

Spiritual Development

True Individuality

Swami Vivekananda explains there is no true individuality except in the shining forth of Spirit. When we experience Spirit, our true individuality is revealed. Prior to that, we are just guessing, coping and trying out various phases of personality. The Infinite Spirit expresses through each of us in a unique way. Seek to allow and cooperate with Spirit instead of ignoring it.

When we don’t know our true nature, we are struggling toward realization of it. Our individuality is the Infinite Spirit within us. That is our real nature — the Infinite. We’ll be delighted with whom we turn out to be.

  • The Infinite Spirit resides within and can shine forth through us
  • As we shed our blockages, the inner light of our soul expresses through us more and more
  • Swami Vivekananda:  When we experience Spirit, our true individuality is revealed.
  • The true self is the Infinite, beyond nature, expressing through body, mind, thoughts, feelings and actions
  • The Infinite Spirit abides behind a veil. It is manifested through every good thought and deed

How to Succeed

As you may know, we do not charge for our courses. All Yoga World content is free and available to you with our blessings. However, we do have a simple, but important request that’s key to the transformations necessary to succeed on the path.

We ask you to commit two hours a week to selfless service. This service can be anything you choose ranging from helping a family member or neighbor to volunteering at a nonprofit organization.

I Commit to Serve

This commitment is solely between you and your inner self.

Why the Commitment?
