RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

Nitty Gritty Yoga

Want to live a life filled with love and greater fulfillment?

Here Ramakrishna Ananda reads several passages from the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna. His commentary following each passage helps us understand where we are on the spiritual path and how we can experience these truths in our lives.

First Steps, The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, Ego

A Selfless Spirit

A selfless spirit leads to God while a selfish spirit leads away from God. Perform your activities with true selflessness. Perform good works with others in mind. Most people who work have an intense motive of ego fulfillment. We may think our work is selfless, but selfishness often creeps in. Be alert. If you work selflessly, seeing your labors as an offering to God and humanity, love of God, peace of mind and personal fulfillment grows and grows.

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.
