A teacher like Christ serves so many purposes. He brings forth into the world that pure consciousness that brings about a balance. He inspires people towards that pure consciousness, and by the shakti that emanates from him, affects and touches the pure consciousness within people around him. He ignites and sets off the spark. And […]
How does one reach the state of freedom? The state of freedom is not to be in the bondage of the mind, that means, in turn, that one rises above the mind. I was telling someone earlier this evening, that, when man becomes an observer of the mind, then only would the mind assume its […]
Meditation brings you back to your totality Whenever a person can exercise his totality in any action, then be sure to know that this is a form of meditation. Most people don’t get answers because they do not still themselves sufficiently for the answer to come. Each of us is responsible for that. If I […]

I have been engaged in meditational practices consistently since 1966, and teaching them, off and on, since 1970. I was fortunate to be with Gururaj from the day he began his teaching mission in London in 1976 until his final day day of teaching in Victoria, Canada, in 1988.

There is no rest for man until he reaches self-realization. People today are operating more […]

From age 44 until his demise, which he predicted, at age 56, he devoted himself to teaching groups of people, amounting to tens of thousands of students, the art of personalised […]
We prefer the crumbs of our own individuality MURRAY: Why am I so afraid to die? GURURAJ: Death is the thing that should be least feared. The reason why people fear death primarily, there are secondary reasons as well, primarily is this that they do not want to lose their individuality. They would prefer the […]
