RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

What is Your Greatest Suffering? Part 1

Allow the Lord’s Prayer to help you find your true nature

We are spiritual beings but don’t realize it. People regularly feel unfulfilled because they have forgotten their true natures. Explore insights from the Lord’s Prayer which can help us to live from our true selves.

Spiritual Development, Prayer, Afflictions / Kleshas

Live in the Kingdom of Heaven

Jesus focused on God as Father. He taught about Spirit through parables, demonstrations and healings. He described how to enter and live in the Kingdom of Heaven, how to live in Spirit as a spiritual being. Jesus set out a simple process to help people return to spiritual awareness — leaving behind karmas and a life of trial and error. In a nutshell, he revealed how one can love God with heart, soul and mind.

  • The ancient rishis wrote in the Upanishads that forgetfulness is our greatest suffering. We have forgotten who we truly are
  • Kena Upanishad: If a man knows the atman (the true self) here, he then attains the true goal of life. If he does not know atman here, a great destruction awaits him.
  • In ignorance and ego, we ignore our true self and seek happiness in trivial things
  • We are spiritual beings empowered to be partners with the Infinite
  • Jesus came from Spirit to bring us back to our true selves
  • Jesus taught the Lord’s Prayer which can help free us from forgetfulness

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?
