One thought that pervades modern society is: Everyday life and Spirituality are two separate compartments. They are like two parallel tracks that don't have a meeting point.

There is huge stress on health & fitness, new fads & trends emerge everyday, Yoga stays as the most popular. Most people don't know that Yoga is essentially a Spiritual System, thus don't approach it from that point of view.

That's how warped ideas like Kundalini Awakening through public camps etc emerge and take root. If you tell people that Kundalini Awakening implies a long struggle, they dismiss you as an ignorant fool.

Meditation too is often seen thus. Especially when someone like me speaks of Tantra Meditation. Why so? Tantra is seen as a non-spiritual thing with all kinds of negative connotations. Huge misconception!

Nothing could be farther from truth. Tantra is the most positive & practical of Indian Spiritual Systems, that helps you transform yourself such that you constantly elevate yourself, achieve more than you ever thought you could.

Thus to see it as separate from everyday life is perhaps a big mistake. It's a tool to transform multiple aspects of yourself and your life. That's what I teach in my Workshop on "Meditation & Tantra." 11 techniques that get you started on an amazing journey.

What were the core teachings of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa?

Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa's teachings virtually cover the entire gamut of Hinduism and its various facets. It is very difficult to consolidate his core teachings to a few lines. Anyhow I will make a humble effort: Image
The purpose of Human life is to realize God.
One must strive to realize God in this very birth.
Knowing God is real knowledge. All other other knowledge is ignorance.
Without sacrificing Kamini and Kanchana (lust and gold) no spiritual progress is ever possible.
#Spirituality ImageImage
Yat mat, tat pat - "As many religions, so many paths". In attaining God, every religion is valid.
God is with form, without form & He could manifest in so many other ways too, beyond our comprehension.
An idol isn't just clay. God's consciousness manifests in it.

Ms Bagalamukhi - this Mahavidya or Cosmic Wisdom among the Dus Mahavidyas or 10 Great Cosmic Wisdom Goddesses in the Hindu Pantheon of Tantric Goddesses.
#Spirituality Image
One of her main aspects is related to speech; which is why she resonates with the Great Cosmic Wisdom Ma Tara, and is often considered one of her forms. Image
We can understand this connection if we agree that an intense subtle radiation is related to manifestation of light; thus, Tara manifests as Bagalamukhi when subtle energy of sound manifests as light.

This video speaks of other cosmic aspects of Ma Tara

What was the significance of Ramakrishna Paramhans in the spiritual development of India?
Spiritual Renaissance of a very practical kind.
#Spirituality Image
Harmony of all religions in line with the ancient Vedic idea that all rivers lead to the same ocean.

Integration of all the four yogas. One is free to choose or mix and match as long as it suits one’s tendencies.
#Spirituality ImageImage
Inclusion of householders in the Spiritual league almost at par with the monastic disciples. Also, bringing them together in His name for serving the larger human cause.

What's "Tapas" in Hinduism?

Its an important concept in Hinduism & like so many terms has no English equivalent. It has various meanings around generation of internal “heat” like austerity, asceticism, penance, self-discipline, meditation, self-denial, self-abnegation etc. Image
The GITA Chapter 17 has a detailed dissertation on the subject - detailing the tapas (self-discipline) of body, speech and mind.

The Threefold Division of Tapas (self-discipline):

14. Adoration of the gods, the twice-born, the preceptors, the enlightened ones, purity, rectitude, chastity and non-injury, these are said to be the physical disciplines.

Why do enlightened people like Jiddu, U.G. Ramakrishna, and Ramana Maharshi give contradictory statements on the Kundalini power? Some of them negate and others affirmative.

Ramakrishna Paramahamsa is universal in his spirituality. He did not merely accept but intensely practiced several religious paths and then the several systems within Hinduism, and showed that they were all true.
#Spirituality
#Kundalini Image
He stated the truths in simple words, expressed and displayed truths directly, and compassionately taught all these to everyone.

He did express about Kundalini, which has been celebrated by Sages for thousands of years. This must be true. No doubts.
