Guruji talks about Charity
Whether our current circumstances are good or bad, we can trust that a higher force or energy is always in control and put ourselves in the hands of grace. We can give thanks for the day ahead, and look back at the blessings of the day that has passed. When you ask for help with all your heart and are willing to surrender your mind and listen for an answer, you will receive it – of this there is no doubt.
The Householder Yogis
In ancient times, yogis and spiritual masters used to retreat to the mountain caves and forests, and lived as renunciants. This was partly the reason why the holy path of Kriya Yoga (a scientific meditation path otherwise known as the “Holy Grail” in India, which has also been known by other names) was kept in the hands of an exclusive few whilst the technique and knowledge of its existence almost became lost to mankind.
On Confidence
“If we only listen to what other people are saying and take their gossip seriously, it will be very hard to come to any decision. When we are faced with a choice, we have to learn to apply our own intellect and be firm with our own decisions in life. Sometimes we are swayed far too easily by others.”
Yoga with Guruji
Sometimes new people after a yoga lesson ask, “That was so amazing. Can he read your mind or something? When he spoke after the class, he answered all my questions…!” I respond with a wry smile and do my best to keep my mouth shut. How can you explain on the doorstep that Guruji is not an ordinary yoga teacher, and this ability is something far higher than mind-reading?
Introducing Guruji
Guruji is a “Householder Yogi”: a spiritual master who teaches Hatha Yoga for a living and has a family. He does not have an ashram, nor does he run a business or an organisation. He is an authorised master of Kriya Yoga in the direct lineage of the great Yogi Sri Lahiri Mahasaya, whose name became known worldwide through the publication of Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda.
