Swami Omkarananda

Glory of Shiva Shakti

In this selection from the recorded talks of Swami Omkarananda we have a wide range of subjects, from the highest flights of the Upanishads and Veda to the humblest little practical steps of how to use the Mantra-prayer and develop one's relationship with the Divine in daily life.

Here are excerpts from some of the best talks by Swami Omkarananda, who came to Switzerland from the Himalayas in 1965 and was soon serving as a treasure-house of the best spiritual forces of light and joy in the West, as many were drawn to visit and stay, and a new Centre was formed.

Swami Omkarananda is always inspiring, even the simplest words hinting at wonderful depths of experience, holding promise of a vast knowledge of the traditions of old India, and also a rich acquaintance with basic human psychology, and a masterly acquaintance with the subtler forces of Nature.

These talks are easily accessible to people in the West as well as those in India, because Swami always starts with the basic steps of common human nature and familiar examples from daily life.

The first part is about the Tryambakam Mantra, which is valuable both for healing and for devotion and spiritual realisation. Then there are descriptions of the approach to the Truth, the divine Reality, as Lord and Divine Mother, Shiva Shakti, and the true nature of the Guru-figure who plays such a central role on the Path. There are also some examples from Swami's own life.

As people in the West gradually gain greater familiarity with the basic terms of the Vedic traditions of India, a marvellous enrichment and harmony is discovered where all the best in East and West, all the manifestations of Divinity, are seen to be parts of the whole, pouring into our lives new ways of exploring the delights of the same one God and Truth.

Swami Sivananda:

The Foundations of Spiritual Development
by Swami Sivananda

compiled and edited
by Swami Omkarananda

A title from the chapter: "Mind: Its Tendencies and Its Transcendence, 19th May -

The Two Axes of Self-Knowledge:

"Man cannot know himself save through meditation, through a deep dive into the calm chambers of the heart and a direct glance at the mirror of life within. To have a comprehensive understanding of what we are, we must impress on our mind the two facts, viz. the existence of the Eternal Reality and the radical unity of all manifestations from star to mineral form, from inanimate nature to organized life. Every human being is a manifestation of the Lord; and, therefore, it is possible for everyone to become one with the Infinite. Reflection on the above truths of essential existence generates faith and conviction. Direct vision of the Reality supplants all vain arguments. Realization of truth makes everything clear and self-explanatory."

Some more of the 366 titles or subjects within 34 chapters are such as:

"The Grass-Hopper- and the House-Fly-Habits of the Mind, The Genealogy of Miseries,The Metaphysical Origin of Human Evils, The Techniques of Self-Transcendence, The Cell Theory and the States of Mind, Twenty Techniques for Concentration, Samadhi and Certain Similar Mental States, Psychic Powers and Real Yoga, Self-Realisation this moment, The Solid World of the Sage, Intellect and the Nature of Intuition, The Art of Introspection, The Process of Self-Knowledge, Attunement with the Divine, Precursory Condition for God-Realization, When Cosmic Life Intervenes, In the Realm of the Real, The Transcendental Reaches of Blessedness, The Techniques of Spiritual Perfection, Summits Beyond Summits, Infinite Delight, The Dynamics of Devotion, Evidences of the Divine Presence, The Laws and Love of God, the Thought of the Divine, Continence and the Techniques of Sex-Sublimation, Science and the Perception of Yoga, Integral Yoga, Vedanta: Its Disciplines and Its Value, The Witness, The Perception of the One Self, Vedanta Technique of Self-Transcendence, The Religion of the Heart...

Vidyaprakashananda

An Eminent Avatara Purusha

Paramahamsa Sri Swami Omkarananda Sarawati

mit vielen farbigen und schwarz-weißen Fotos

Who Am I? - Before I was born, I was. After I die, I will be. A timeless Being came from, and into, timeless Eternity. Time was formed, and time is dissolved, and I remain what I have always been, a Being with depths to which there is no beginning, and heights to which there is no end.

Since the supreme Divinity as the Timeless Eternity and as the Time Eternity - Sadashiva Tripurasundari - is dwelling in my Heart, Life, Consciousness, and as there is no difference between That and Me and Me and That, I am dwelling in the Soul of all Gods and Goddesses, all Saints and Sages, all beings visible and invisible. And, yet I am what I am, the Transcendent Reality.

Spirituality versus Religion
Principles of Interreligious Understanding and Self-Realization

We are living in a time where there is a deep lack of orientation. Many people today are consciously or unconsciously seeking for their true identity but many of them, unfortunately, get caught in nationalistic slogans or doctrines or religious creeds and dogmas which cause rather painful and violent disturbances and even warlike antagonisms in our already deeply shaken world. It is only through a spiritual understanding which goes to the root and source of religion itself, which is God, that we can discover the goal of our quest. The answer to our lives can only be found by going within ourselves, by overcoming the rulership of lust, pride and passion through true detachment and surrender and by discovering the boundless source of divine life, virtue, unconditional joy and love and God-realization that is lying hidden in the depth of our souls. Only in this way, which the author describes, will we be able to transform this planet into a garden of brotherhood and peace.
