RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

The Higher Life — Part 3

Experience higher consciousness by going beyond separateness

The life principle, the higher prakriti, strives to fully express through each of us. Part 3 of this series focuses on an essential understanding which can help in finding and expressing our higher self. Discover how rich life can be when you have an awareness of the higher prakriti.

Spiritual Development

How Do You Deal with Separateness?

How do you deal with separateness? Do you just ignore it and feel unhappy most of the time? If so, this is keeping you from experiencing a finer life. Let’s explore how to handle separateness so that we can go beyond it. We are called to a higher life. It is available to each of us as we move from our lower nature to our higher spiritual expression.

  • The higher prakriti is the essence, joy and power of life moving and expressing in us
  • When we’re stuck in lower prakriti, we spend our days and energies dealing with our perceptions and assumptions of separateness
  • Limited individuality is a stage on our way to soul realization and soul expression
  • We move from a false sense of ego, the lower prakriti, to the true self, the higher prakriti
  • Our happiness and well being depend on whether we increase or decrease our delusions of separateness

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?
