Manifest your Destiny: Pramod's Podcast

• What is Enlightenment?

  2010 Mar 12

  
  

  In this live recording, Pramod talks about the Eastern approach to enlightenment and takes a close look at the popular dichotomy between the ego and the spiritual self. Is it really that hard to attain enlightenment? Does it actually take a whole lifetime of spiritual practice to get enlightened? Pramod answers, "The Advaita teachings of India remind us that there is no such dichotomy and that it’s all one. The ego is simply a manifestation of that oneness .... There are two things that need to be said here - enlightenment is not as rare as it is often described, and it is not a state that you reach once and then remain in for the rest of your life. It is an ongoing, daily, in-the-moment inner activity. .... You are enlightened right now without any rigorous practice. So let what you call spiritual practice be a celebration of your connection, a gentle daily reminder to stay connected and to do this graceful dance between connected and not connected. Let's face it - just as we have moments of connection, we also have moments of no connection, and both enrich each other. You connect and come out of connection with new found vitality, which you then use to create and then as you create, you get so bogged down in the details that you’re soon knocked out of connection. But you don’t worry because you know that you can, at any moment, go back into full connection again. Today, right now, your life become this graceful dance. It has to be right now; everything else can wait, but not this." Filled with personal anecdotes and beautiful quotes from Eastern texts, this talk is bound to entertain and inspire you!

• Just Let in the Love!

  2010 Feb 09

  
  

  In this special message, Pramod says, “The general tendency is to talk about generating love inside, but I think it’s very important to remember that we are not generating love, but we are getting into the flow or stream of love that is all around us, that pervades not just our life space, but All-that-is. .... Just ask yourself these questions with me right now. Are you feeling lonely? Do you feel a lack of love in your life? If so, then the next question is, what is it that I’m doing to cut myself off from that flow of love that’s always there? What is it that I need to drop right now?” This brief talk will help you bring the love back into your life, in this season of love.

  Since Pramod has started giving the opportunity to have questions answered at the talks offered, some of the attendees of the talks, and listeners from around the world not able to attend these talks, have voiced their dismay at their questions not being answered. Therefore in this special episode, Pramod will answer some popular concerns shared by many listeners. The questions answered include: (a) Why do you never talk about psychic abilities? Is it because you don’t believe in them or because you find that the LOA conflicts with being psychic? (b) Could you please give me my own personal mantra? (c) I’ve meditated for about three months so far and am familiar with the lotus posture. I want to know if there is a better posture? (d) My dog is terribly sick and she’s pretty old now. I've considered putting her to sleep, but I'm not sure if it is the right thing to do. Also, is it possible to connect with your pets that have crossed over?

  Note: Be sure that Pramod personally reads every question and if your question is not answered on air, Pramod will try to reply to you via email as soon as possible. If you have any question on meditation, the Law of Attraction (LOA), love and relationships, manifesting your desires, or any other topic that we take up in this show, please feel free to mail them to us at pramoduday@yahoo.com

  Spiritual being and teacher, Pramod, says, "Shunyata is the matrix of all that exists, of every object of our desires. The easy process of creation may be summed up like this: summon forth what you want from shunyata and to tap into shunyata, meditation is one of the best known ways. So see your mind vanish. Rest in shunyata and from there, attract what you want. This is attracting from shunyata."

  In this talk, Pramod says, “Some, as they try to meditate, get very annoyed or frustrated when thoughts arise. Maybe they have an unrealistic goal that when they meditate there should be no thoughts at all. There is a Tibetan saying, “It’s a tall order to ask for meat without bones and tea without leaves.” As long as you have a mind, you will have thoughts and emotions. The thoughts are composed of the mind stuff itself, just as the waves of the sea come from the sea itself and go back into the sea. In the same way, thoughts and emotions are the radiance and the expression of the very nature of your mind. Accepting such a compassionate view of your thoughts and emotions is the easiest way to quiet your mind in meditation.”

  Most of us know that the emotions of joy or love or appreciation tell us that we are in a powerful state of full connection with Source. And it is only natural that we wish we were up there in full, seamless connection all the time. But it is inevitable that we will go up and down the scale from time to time. In this talk, Pramod relates a personal experience, talks about how the Emotional Guidance Scale came to the aid and introduces a simple game called ‘Tuning into the World’. Whenever you are experiencing negative emotions such as despair, rage or anger, use this incredibly simple process to move up the scale most effortlessly and naturally.

• Attracting from Shunyata

  2009 Nov 16

  
  

  In this enlightening and soul-nourishing talk, Pramod points out, “Shunyata is the matrix of all that exists, of every object of our desires. The easy process of creation may be summed up like this: summon forth what you want from shunyata and to tap into shunyata, meditation is one of the best known ways. So see your mind vanish. Rest in shunyata and from there, attract what you want. This is attracting from shunyata. All your desires, even the seemingly trivial ones, are important because your desires originate in the soul of the Universe and whatever it is that you want, you have even the support of the stones and the sticks of the fields because the entire Universe will conspire in helping you to achieve it.” Tune in to wisdom gleaned from personal meditation as well as Eastern philosophical treatises which are as old as the hills, such as the Tao te Ching and the Madhyamika Karika Vrtti to some of the latest self-help bestsellers and groundbreaking books on Quantum Mechanics, in this thrilling intellectual roller-coaster ride!
