Unlocking the Power of Your Choices

The Shocking Power of Your Choices: What You Sow Now, You Reap Later

Have you ever stopped to consider how the choices you made in the past have shaped your life today, and how the choices you make today will shape the life you’ll lead tomorrow? It’s a profound thought, one that often goes unnoticed in the hustle and bustle of daily life. Yet, the reality is that every decision, big or small, sets the stage for your future.

Imagine your life as a garden. The seeds you plant now—your choices, actions, and even thoughts—will grow and flourish, determining the landscape of your tomorrow. But here’s the kicker: not all seeds bear the fruit you desire. Some choices can lead to a bountiful harvest, while others may result in weeds that choke out your potential. Try it, and you will see that you can almost always trace everything you do, have, or not have to some small choice you made in the past.

In this video presentation, we will delve deep into this concept, exploring the hidden power of the everyday choices we make. We’ll uncover how every decision we make impacts our future, often in ways we can’t foresee. Through my own real-life example and thought-provoking insights, we’ll see how to make choices that align with the life we truly want to live.

Don’t miss out on this eye-opening exploration of how your current decisions will echo through the years to come. Watch the video and discover the importance of everything you think, say, or do that can plant the seeds of a fulfilling, successful, and happy future.

Faith vs. Reason – Christianity vs. Vedanta

Unveiling the Shocking Truth: Christianity vs. Vedanta – Faith or Reason?

We live in a world filled with diverse beliefs and philosophies, in which, the quest for truth remains a constant journey. This video, “The Shocking Truth: Christianity vs. Vedanta – Faith or Reason?” takes you on an enlightening exploration of two profound world-views that have shaped human thought and spirituality for centuries.

The Clash of Faith and Reason

Christianity and Vedanta offer distinct paths to understanding the nature of existence, the divine, and our place in the cosmos. While Christianity is rooted in faith and belief in a personal God, Vedanta emphasises knowledge and SELF-realisation, guiding seekers towards the ultimate truth of oneness with Brahman.

What to Expect in the Video

This thought-provoking video, is a discussion on the core principles of both Christianity and Vedanta, comparing and contrasting their teachings. We discuss the concept of duality versus non-duality, the role of reason and logic in spiritual pursuit, and the historical context that has shaped these traditions.

The Mahavakya or grand statement “Aham Brahmasmi” (“I am Brahman”) from the Brihadaryanaka Upanishad is a powerful representation of the Vedantic experience of unity and self-realisation. This Mahavakya can be used as a gateway to begin understanding the profound insights of Vedanta.

Shattering Beliefs: The Ultimate Truth of Atman and Brahman

Unveiling the Truth: Why You Should Question Everything

This video presentation delves into profound philosophical questions through an engaging Q&A discussion. This session is designed to ignite your curiosity and challenge your understanding of reality, consciousness, and the nature of the self. This video is a must-watch if you’ve ever wondered about the deeper meanings behind ancient scriptures or the true essence of existence.

Learning Through Analogies

We explore various analogies to shed light on complex concepts. Imagine understanding the nature of consciousness through the metaphor of a wave in the ocean, a fire igniting under the right conditions, or the space within a pot. These simple yet powerful illustrations can transform your perception and deepen your insight into non-duality and the oneness of all existence.

The Importance of Inquiry

In the pursuit of knowledge, it is crucial to study, observe, analyse, and experience rather than simply accept interpretations handed down by others. The masses often prefer to listen passively rather than actively engage with the material. This passive acceptance can lead to misunderstandings and superficial knowledge. True understanding comes from questioning, probing, and seeking clarity.

As Krishna states in Shloka 4:38 of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita, “There is certainly nothing more purifying than knowledge. He who is perfect in Yoga finds it in the Self in due course of time.” This Shloka highlights the transformative power of true knowledge and its role in achieving a peaceful state of mind.

The Path to Clarity

Clarity is essential for inner peace and spiritual growth. By challenging assumptions and seeking to understand the fundamental truths, we can attain a deeper level of clarity. This journey requires patience, dedication, and a willingness to go beyond surface-level interpretations.

Why This Video is Essential

This video is not just another lecture; it’s an invitation to embark on a journey of discovery. The discussion is designed to make you think critically and inspire you to seek your own answers. I present ideas that can change the way you view the world and your place within it.

The Essence of Karma: Insights from the Srimad Bhagavad Gita

After six years, I am revisiting this post to shed more light on the principles of Karma, Karmayoga, Doership, and methods to manage one’s Karma.

Realisation is the crucial first step in managing and transforming your own Karma. Recognising that nothing is happening to you personally, but rather that all events in your life are the result of your Karma, which is shaped by your genetic inheritance, upbringing, education, and experiences—can open a new path for you. This awareness allows you to take corrective measures and actively alter the course of your life.

Blaming others for your circumstances and failing to take action to change them is a futile use of your time and energy.

Those who delve into the Srimad Bhagavad Gita recognise that attachment is the root of negative emotions such as sadness, dejection, anger, jealousy, and hatred. Attachment to the outcomes of one’s actions can diminish concentration and efficiency, causing immense pain when goals are not achieved.

One effective approach to reaching the ultimate goal is through Karma Marga—the path of righteous action performed without attachment to results. This practice ensures mental equilibrium, even in challenging circumstances.

Bhagavan Krishna imparted to Arjuna the significance of being a Karmayogi and provided guidance on adopting this path.

A common question from those unfamiliar with Karmayoga is, “How can one work without considering the outcome or aiming for a result?” This question arises from a misunderstanding of Krishna’s teachings, which emphasise that a doer should be entirely focused on their objective: SBG 2:41 “In this path, O Arjuna, there is a single point of focus and determination. The thoughts of the undecided are branched and are infinite.”

Attachment to results can lead to a loss of focus, as individuals may become preoccupied with the rewards of success or the fears of failure—scenarios that are purely speculative. This mental diversion compromises the quality of their work, steering them towards mediocrity.

The SOUL Question

Who or what is it that dies, and who is it that reincarnates?

Unveiling the Soul Question: A Journey to Clarity

Have you ever wondered what happens after we die? The mysteries of the ‘soul’, the idea of life after death, and the concept of reincarnation have puzzled humanity for centuries. While many beliefs and theories exist, few provide a truly satisfying answer that dispels all doubts. My latest video, “The SOUL Question,” dives deep into these profound topics, offering a clear and insightful perspective that will leave your mind free of any lingering questions.

  • What is the soul made of?

  • At what point does a soul enter a new body?
  • How do formless souls think or strategise and, like a certain spiritual leader said, ‘fight to acquire human bodies’?

Beyond Beliefs: Harmony Rather Than Conflict

The Belief Factor: How Our Views Shape Conflicts

The Power and Perils of Belief

This is about the critical exploration of ‘belief’. After extensive studies and observations, I’ve come to understand that ‘belief’ is the pivotal word we should all be examining and working on. It is the root cause behind many disagreements that have the potential to escalate into serious conflicts, crime, violence, and even wars between nations.

The term ‘belief’ can be defined as an acceptance that something exists or is true, especially one without proof.

Whether it’s a small dispute among family members, friends, or colleagues, or larger-scale disagreements between nations, beliefs—or rather, the lack of respect for individual beliefs—are the seeds that grow into major conflicts. Not to forget that a belief held so strongly it leads to major showdowns between individuals or separations between couples can, in the future, contradict the philosophy of the same person as they evolve.

Through a series of insightful videos, I aim to shed light on how deeply ingrained beliefs influence our interactions and shape the world around us.

Join me on this journey as we uncover the true impact of unsubstantiated beliefs on our lives and learn how to navigate through differences with understanding and respect. Together, let’s explore how fostering critical thinking and open-mindedness can lead to personal growth and societal harmony.
