Published on Nov 10, 2020 Part of what all of us incarnated on earth to do is to free ourselves of the ego. All the conscious and subconscious thought patterns that we have held for incarnations need to be released so that we can soar in God’s light. "Pride of pedigree" is among the bundle of self-definitions that we carry with us. Learning to recognize it and let go of it, helps us to purify our hearts and soar in freedom. #SriYukteswar #OpenHeart #HeartsNaturalLove #HolyS...cience https://youtu.be/45ryDQVWB_E #SriYukteswar #OpenHeart #HeartsNaturalLove #HolyScience

Today’s Inspirational Video for November 2, 2020, from our Spiritual Director, Nayaswami Dharmadas. https://youtu.be/C3hxWODSyJ0 The "Anahat" or heart center is located just behind the heart area near the spine, in the center of the body. Physically it controls circulation and respiration, and much more. Spiritually, it is important in that it is the center where our natural love for God develops, and from which it is offered upward. Dharmadas discusses all these points and many more, with humor (starting in the first minute!) and nuance. #JourneythroughtheChakras #Anahat #HeartsLove #OpenHeart #Devotion Up next
