RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

About Death

Do you think death is the end? Or is there more?

Yogis have found that our souls are eternal, pure and painless. Death is but the loss of the outer physical form. We are advised to turn to God for comfort and healing when faced with the loss of a loved one. Prayer and meditation reveal that the souls of our loved ones live on and love us still. Enjoy listening to Sri Ramakrishna’s observations and healing ideas about death.

Yoga Perspectives, Soul/Inner Self

The Soul is Eternal

In meditation we connect with eternal life. Our souls are eternal, pure and painless. The souls of our loved ones live on, wish us well, and love us still. This we can know and feel in meditation and prayer.

  • Yogis call grief a fetter, a chain, which ties us to ignorance and ego
  • We only fear death because of our identification with the body
  • There’s no death for the soul. It is beyond life and death
  • In meditation we discover our soul:  eternal, pure and painless

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?
