Here are signs you are progressing toward living in divine love. Ramakrishna Ananda explains Sri Aurobindo’s Triple Transformation as a beautiful method for spiritual awakening. Let your own life experiences be your teacher.

Find out how to live aware of Spirit in yourself and others. Yoga leads our awareness beyond body, mind and emotions to experiences and realizations of Spirit. Spirit is our essence, the source of life and consciousness.

Yogis distinguish between Infinite Spirit (Brahman) and Shakti, the force which creates the universe. Ramakrishna Ananda explains the need to honor Shakti and this life force flowing within us.

How can we spiritualize our thoughts? Attune with Spirit first. Then think. Ramakrishna Ananda shows the way.

We focus on chapter 9 of the Bhagavad Gita: “I am the goal, the supporter, the Lord, the witness, the abode, the shelter, the friend.” The individual soul and the Lord become united in a wondrous way. It is the grace of the Lord which unfailingly facilitates this union.

Ramakrishna Ananda shows us that when Spirit and nature are balanced in our lives we live in dynamically unfolding joy. Learn the main factors which create imbalances and how yoga can help. When Spirit and nature are in harmony, it is easy to sense the dance of life.

What is it like to be enlightened? What are the characteristics of an enlightened person? Ramakrishna Ananda references the Bhagavad Gita in describing a realized person.

Find out how to receive spiritual gifts. Most spiritual paths focus on receptivity as the key to growth. Spirituality is not about conquering or attaining, but receiving. Open yourself to these spiritual gifts.

This is the conclusion of a five-part Work Series. In ignorance, people are convinced they are self-caused and self-powered. A yogi overcomes his/her false sense of self.
