Satsang with Nirmala |
|
Who are you really? Are you your body. mind and personality? Or are you the spacious awareness in which they appear? Questions like these point us to the infinite Presence that is the true source of peace, happiness and love. Satsang means "gathering together to inquire into our true nature." It is an opportunity through inquiry and dialogue to discover that the love, peace and happiness you have been seeking is already present, here and now. Satsang is a chance to finally rest from all seeking and struggle, and to experience directly the completeness and perfection of your Being. Advaita spiritual teacher, Nirmala invites you to join him in honoring the limitless love that is our true nature. Together in satsang, we will enjoy the sweet richness that is revealed when we give this Truth our undivided attention.

I always thought you would come to me in the shape of a beautiful lover I never dreamed you would steal my heart with no shape at all
I always pretended I needed arms to hold me and lips to kiss away my pain yet I find fulfillment in the embrace of empty space
I always wished you would speak to me with words of tender sweetness now I know you whisper silently of your undying love
I always knew I would find you although I foolishly looked with my eyes you were here all along hiding just out of sight in my heart

Advaita is the teaching of nonduality, which has become best known in the West through the spiritual teachings of the revered Indian saint, Ramana Maharshi. He taught that self-realization, or the realization of the spiritual truth of who we are, is actually the natural state and not some distant goal that only a few can attain. The Self is that which is always and already present, that which doesn’t come and go. The love, peace, and happiness we have all been seeking is already here and is, in fact, who we are. Through simple self inquiry, we can awaken from the dream of a separate self to the reality of Oneness, to the spiritual truth of who we are. There are many ways on this site to explore these spiritual truths, including online satsang video and satsang audio recordings, free downloads of Nirmala’s spiritual books, and many other satsang articles and samples of his spiritual teachings. In addition there is a calendar of upcoming satsang events. |

“What a rich possibility: that all of the love you have ever wanted is available right now, just by giving it to everything you encounter, both within you and in the environment. Love is for giving, not for getting. And the more you give, the more fully it fills your heart to overflowing.”
