This discussion group is meant to be an open Satsanga and is blessed by Sri

Ramana Maharshi, the great Jnani Sage of Arunachala. a is in

the best tradition of a joyous spiritual fellowship for facilitating the

Recognition of the Eternal Reality that is One's Own Self. "I Am That!" This

is the uncompromising, simple, and yet Radical Truth proclaimed in a variety

of ways by the ancient and modern Sages of Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism, and

Taoism. In Advaita Vedanta, the highest teaching emphasizes the complete

identity of the Individual Soul with the Supreme Soul. In Tibetan Buddhism,

Dzogchen is considered the supreme teaching and represents the nondual focus

on one's innate wakefulness. How beautiful the variety of expressions in so

many different traditions! We embrace this variety with great joy and in

fellowship in a. No religion or teacher or tradition has a

monopoly on the Essential Truth of Reality which is Our Own Nature. In this

context, a focuses on the aspirations and experiences of

individuals on the spiritual path. Everyone interested in any of the Shiva

and Shakti traditions, and the related yogic and tantric paths as well as

those practicing primarily the cognitive methods of the pure nondual

teachings of great Jnanis such as Ramana Maharshi are welcome to join. The

discussions are typically expected to focus on Self-Realization, Kundalini

Shakti and Its Manifestations, God-Realization, the Goddess, Enlightenment,

and various types of Samadhis (Savikalpa and Nirvikalpa). Discussion of

various teachers and teachings can also be enriching as long as there is

mutual respect and a feeling of amity in the conversation. Humor and poetry

and other artistic expressions of the spiritual life are encouraged and

supported. May God Bless everyone with Peace, Joy, and Understanding. May we

all nourish and heal each other in the spirit of Compassion, Wisdom and

Love. OM Shanti, Shanti, Shanti. Peace to all living beings.
