Planting the Seed

8 Comments / Blog, The Adventures of Adi and David, The Elegant Universe / By /

Would you plant the seed of a tree even if you knew that you would never get to enjoy the shade?” In the silence of meditation, the most remarkable messages come flooding through when we reach a state that the Yogi’s call, “shuniya”.  Shuniya is that space where the mind stops calculating and simply witnesses all that is occurring without judgement or the need to change whatever is occurring.  Some call it the state of “zero” or “no-thing.”  This state is achieved when we use yogic asanas, mudras, chants and meditations that physically challenge and tire the body in order […]

“Merge into the One.”  I heard a voice whisper ever so gently to me as I was half-asleep yet half-awake.  It’s that sweet spot of sleep where our defenses our down just enough to receive divinely inspired message while being just conscious enough to remember them.  Most times, dreams deliver us messages while we deeply sleep only to evaporate into the ether the moment we awakened to a new day. “Merge into the One.”  These words permeated into my consciousness.  At first, I didn’t know the source of the voice, but as I roused awake, I knew that this was

Many of us begin our lives entrenched in a religious system that was passed down to us from our parents, whom received it from their parents, whom received from their parents and so on and so forth.  Although we may have had the best intentions to accept the teachings oftentimes, we stray from our initial foray into spirituality because it was thrust upon us from a preceding generation.  It is not uncommon that what has been passed down to us lacks the resonance that our soul required to evolve. This was most certainly the case with me.  I was raised
