653. All that is equired is intention and longing to know Self ! - Non Duality Meditation

25th April 2026 In this Satsang, Sanjay discussed about the illusion of human control, explaining that while the physical body and the universe are bound by time and destined to be destroyed, our true essence belongs to the changeless, eternal Creator. He emphasized that true immortality cannot be found through physical longevity, but only through the spiritual "posture" of abiding in the pure, inner self and completely ignoring the restless mind. Sanjay stressed the necessity of personal effort, urging seekers to surrender their desires and false identities to the profound power of inner silence. By doing so, the fire of this pure awareness burns away all karmas and ego, allowing the individual to transcend the suffering of the world and rest as the liberated, uninvolved witness. These are teachings and pointers from ongoing NDA(Non-duality awareness)/Advaitic Satsangs held at Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia.

22nd April 2026In this Satsang, Sanjay discussed on the illusory nature of the ego, explaining that the true self is pure, eternal consciousness rather than the limited body-mind complex. He highlighted that neither the inert physical body nor the eternal consciousness fears death; instead, this fear belongs solely to the ego—a "ghost" that only exists when uninvestigated but vanishes under the light of self-inquiry. Sanjay warned that by identifying with the finite body, humans mistakenly seek external validation and happiness through worldly desires, acting like beggars sitting on hidden treasure. He concluded that through direct, intense devotion to the inner silence, true seekers can dissolve the false boundaries of the ego, realizing they are not separate individuals but expressions of one vast, blissful ocean of awareness.These are teachings and pointers from ongoing NDA(Non-duality awareness)/Advaitic Satsangs held at Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia.

20th April 2026 In this Satsang, Sanjay delivered a spiritual teaching on the eternal and formless nature of the self, emphasizing that humanity's primary suffering stems from identifying with the restless, ever-changing mind. He explained that instead of endlessly trying to fix or pacify the mind—which he compared to a "drunk monkey" with a fever—seekers should use discernment (Viveka) to completely detach from the body-mind complex. By recognizing that waking life is merely a thought-fueled projection, Sanjay guided listeners to direct their attention inward to the deep silence of the heart (Hridayam), where the illusion of the ego naturally dissolves. He concluded that true peace is not something to be achieved or proven in the external world, but is found by resting as pure, intention-less consciousness, free from all desires and forms.These are teachings and pointers from ongoing NDA(Non-duality awareness)/Advaitic Satsangs held at Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia.

18th April 2026 In this Satsang, Sanjay and the participants engaged in a profound Satsang exploring the teachings of Ramana Maharshi, specifically focusing on self-inquiry and shifting one's perspective from the external world to the internal source of awareness. The discussion highlighted the realization that the internal "I Am" projects the mind, body, and world, rather than the world causing our experiences. Sanjay also emphasized that seekers often fall into the trap of chasing temporary spiritual experiences, advising them instead to anchor into the pure, uninvolved silence that is present even in deep sleep. By holding onto this unchanging awareness during the waking state, the ego and the illusion of a separate "doer" naturally dissolve, leading to a state of profound peace, spontaneous compassion, and a direct recognition of the ever-present True Self within.These are teachings and pointers from ongoing NDA(Non-duality awareness)/Advaitic Satsangs held at Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia.

15th April 2026 In this Satsang, Sanjay led a celebration of Bhagavan's Aradhana Day, marking 76 years since his mahasamadhi in 1950. He explained that while the term "celebration" might seem odd for someone's death, it represents honoring Bhagavan's teachings and the grace he shared with others. Sanjay discussed Bhagwan's death experience and his emphasis on the temporary nature of the body, comparing it to discarding a banana leaf after a meal. He highlighted the importance of both self-effort and devotion (Bhakti) in spiritual practice, drawing parallels between different spiritual traditions including Buddhism and Sufism. The discussion emphasized that true realization comes from looking within and finding the eternal self, which cannot be affected by death or physical circumstances.

13th April 2026 In this Satsang, Sanjay discussed on the nature of suffering and the self, explaining that true seekers must go beyond conventional understanding to discover that there is no separate "sufferer" - only the illusion of individual existence. He discussed how most people use various mechanisms to cope with suffering, from drugs and therapies to time healing, but argued that true liberation comes from realizing the non-existence of the individual self through self-inquiry. Sanjay emphasized that this realization leads to a state of connectedness with all existence, where the ego dissolves and one experiences pure awareness as the underlying reality that is both eternal and blissful.These are teachings and pointers from ongoing NDA(Non-duality awareness)/Advaitic Satsangs held at Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia.

He discussed the nature of the mind's constant outward focus and explained that true realization comes when one can maintain impartial witness consciousness regardless of external circumstances.

He discussed how this practice can lead to a state of bliss and stillness regardless of what's happening in the external world or with the body-mind complex.
