Mohanji Speaks

As 2020 comes to an end and we look ahead to 2021. We can use the year to re-invent ourselves. We can remain flexible, take initiative, take time to make decisions and build meaningful friendships through companionship. This will bring our own betterment and to those around us, especially the helpless. We can cultivate meaningful relationships and we can be there for others, especially the helples...

We all have the success factor in our lives and a time for it to manifest. But why do people not reach there? It is because they stop halfway. They don’t persevere and see their goals through to the end for many reasons. We always find obstacles in life, but it’s our determination that will give us success. Colonel Sanders found success at 65. Mohanji tells this story as an example. 

Have you ever wondered why the lion is considered the king of the jungle? The lion isn’t the fastest or the smartest animal, but it is the king. One reason. Attitude. We can learn from this. Our attitude shapes us, our attitude shapes who we are and what we can achieve in the world.

Success is an individual measure. What one person considers success is not the same for another. For Mohanji, the ultimate success is contentment. Where you are content no matter what the situation, you are successful because this demonstrates stability, which brings lasting happiness.

This podcast is based on the question from a listener who asked about karma in relation to animals; whether animals experience karma and what could cause them to be born into extreme suffering. Mohanji provides his answer.  

We have a unique opportunity as humans to connect to the permanent aspect inside us, and when we do, it brings peace, calm, and we enjoy life as the experience it is. When we are stuck with possessions, positions and ever-changing relationships, we experience stresses, strains and frustrations. Mohanji shares great insight into what we are as humans.

Mohanji shares the true path of spirituality is experiential spiritually and that only what is permanent is real. Many people acquire knowledge, opinions and concepts and these can take us away from experiencing true spiritual ecstasy. He also shares the story of Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa who had temporary states of ecstasy with Mother Kali. It was only when he slew her with a sword, he merged i...

Many of us do not know or realize that we have addictions which come from the need to create comfort zones. These addictions come from our insecurities and to cover them up we develop addictions. Even compulsive shopping is an addiction. Most of these are to cover up boredom, insecurities or deficiencies. Why do we go through all this? Mohanji speaks about this in today's podcast. 

In this podcast Mohanji speaks about the world of illusions. We see the world only as we are, not as it is. When we are happy, our world blooms and when we are sad, our world becomes gloomy. This relative world is just our honest reflection. We are not seeing reality. Reality can only be seen when we completely merge with the supreme consciousness. Once we merge with that brightness, there is no i...

We all have our limiting beliefs and we carry these our whole lives. We shy from many things in life and we fail to achieve our goals only because of our limiting beliefs. This is the truth. Aside from these limiting beliefs, we are wild, strong and fearless. Mohanji illustrates this powerful message with a story and invites us to drop our limiting beliefs. Life has got to be lived, life has got t...

Power of Purity is a guided meditation that has brought transformation to thousands of people across the world. Mohanji speaks in more detail about this powerful meditation which unhooks us from past emotions, burdens and negative experiences leaving us free and lighter.

Mohanji gives his view of the moral of the story about the King Harishchandra who became a pauper and a graveyard keeper. Our time on earth is limited. Whatever time creates, time erases as well. So instead of pursuing appreciations and accolades that we can put on the wall, we should ask ourselves what we can give to the world today. Is it really worth running after possessions and positions in t...

Mohanji speaks about our love and curiosity for gossips and scandals. We are attracted to it, but it comes at a price which is the contamination of our mind. Because whatever we consume leaves an impact in our system. When we take in negativity, we become that. However, when we think positive, talk positively and do positive action in the world, we are purified.

Mohanji talks about his philosophy for handling the various negative situations we face in society today and the two main options we have available - acceptance or resistance. Rather than resistance or activism he chooses acceptance because through this transformation is possible. Transformation to the highest of human refinement - compassion, kindness and love.

Mohanji speaks about the importance of gratitude towards our lineage and our responsibilities towards Mother and Father. Pitru Paksha is now being celebrated in India which is the time to honor our ancestors and family lineage, a great time for purification by feeding the hunger of all beings in their name. 

Swami Vivekananda has a famous quote: ''We can forsake anything in the world for the sake of truth, but we should not forsake truth for the sake of anything.'' Mohanji speaks about this and the deeper and profound meaning behind this statement.

Mohanji speaks about 16 signs mentioned in the scriptures which describe the qualities of an Avatar. 

Mohanji speaks about how to declutter our mind, how to prioritize and how to balance ourselves in society.

Today on the 20th death anniversary of his daughter Ammu, Mohanji speaks about the day of her death and positive action that reverberates across the world inspired by her love. The founding of Ammucare and ACT Foundation, that today are touching hearts of many in the same way Ammu touched his.  

Mohanji speaks about two great Maestros that touched his heart – U. Srinivas and Pandit Jasraj.

Mohanji speaks about different aspects of connection with a Master. When we realize what is our orientation and constitution, and if we connect accordingly, we will have a stable and peaceful connection. 

Mohanji answers the listener's question about the fear at the time of death. The secret for a fearless existence is a deep connection to our inner brightness. Once we know what is the source of fear, we can easily come out of it.

Mohanji speaks about personal effectiveness. Criticism, comparison and competition take a lot of our time away and affect our self-esteem. Instead, that time can be used for actualization – means coming closer to ourselves, exploring our authenticity, uniqueness and originality.

Mohanji speaks about inertia and suggests the methods for overcoming it. Self-motivation, clarity of purpose, determination and discipline are the antidote for inertia.

Mohanji speaks about going beyond our ordinary realities and settling where time is vertical. Here we see parallel realities.
