RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

The Holy Spirit — Part 3

Are you open to Spirit’s many blessings?

The Holy Spirit cannot be attained but is received as a gift from God. If you are willing to receive and maintain It, your life can be transformed. This is the message of Christianity, as well as most other religions. Explore the awakening process as described in The Holy Science by Sri Yukteswar Giri. Discover how the Holy Spirit transforms you to live in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Sunday Morning Sessions

Let It Come

The Holy Spirit is very subtle at first. It is a vibration of love or peace which will sift through your thoughts and perceptions. It will then start sifting through internal images and feelings. Let it do that. It will bless and transform you, dissolving away the ego, the false sense of self.

It is quite subtle and most people ignore It. So, pay attention to It. This vibration of peace or joy is the Holy Spirit. It knows what to do, where to go and how to get there. Allow Spirit to come through.

  • There are various levels of awakening to the Holy Spirit
  • The Holy Spirit guides and transforms our character
  • Sri Yukteswar Giri (The Holy Science):  When you are free of all external ideas for a time, the heart becomes able to comprehend the spiritual light.
  • Until the heart has become purified, one cannot truly surrender to Spirit
  • Absorption in Spirit is the key to awakening
  • Jesus Christ:  Verily, verily I say unto thee, except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

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.
