Disciplic Succession in the Transmission of Yoga

Sunday, January 19, 2pm Central Time

The path of Yoga is the most ancient and most effective means of knowing one's true self (atman), God (Paramatman) and reality. It is once a person is ready to fully dedicate themselves to the highest spiritual pursuit that he becomes a full-fledged yogi. In this talk, Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya explains the process by which this sacred knowledge of Yoga has been passed from the beginning of time to the present day.

"If you wish to understand the true meaning of the term 'Kali Yuga', but you do not fully understand the purely Vedic meaning of this Sanskrit term (especially given the fact that the term originates from the Vedic tradition), then you will not understand this term at all. 'Kali Yuga' is not a Traditionalist term; it is not a Perennialist term. It is Vedic." - Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya

"Any notion of equality that is artificially imposed via legislation, social engineering, or political ideology is based upon a destructive myth. The diversity inherent in Nature bears testimony to this fact. Every individual material body, mind and personality is different from every other. Some living beings are stronger, some are more beautiful, some are bigger in size, some have more character, and some are healthier. Some intellects are greater, some lesser. There is no equality between any two individual material bodies, minds or personalities. But there is qualitative approximation on the higher level of spirit. The true basis of equality lies in the recognition that we are not merely these diverse bodies, composed of insentient matter, but that we are the pure, eternal soul lying within. It is only in accepting spiritual equality, and rejecting artificially imposed material equality, that justice is assured." - Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya

"What is this Sudarśana chakra? The Sudarśana chakra is the glance of the Supreme Personality of Godhead by which He creates the entire material world. The Sudarśana chakra, which is the origin of creation and is most dear to the Lord, has thousands of spokes. This Sudarśana chakra is the killer of the prowess of all other weapons, the killer of darkness, and the manifester of the prowess of devotional service; it is the means of establishing religious principles, and it is the killer of all irreligious activities. Without his mercy, the universe cannot be maintained, and therefore the Sudarśana chakra is employed by the Supreme Personality of Godhead." - A.C.

In 1973, Srila Prabhupada made a remarkable and prophetic statement to several of his students in which he proclaimed that the demonic forces of irreligion (adharma) would be defeated fifty years into the future - 2023. Evam Bhavatu - May It Be So.

...and it has been so.

"You are being cheated for two hundred, three hundred years, that’s all. Not before that...That’s all. So you are being cheated for the last two hundred years, not for thousands of years. So it will be finished. Within another fifty years, everything will be finished...Ignorance is going as science. Irreligion is going as religion. So how long it will go? People are becoming intelligent." - AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (Morning Walk At Cheviot Hills Golf Course, May 15, 1973, Los Angeles)

True spirituality is the Eternal Natural Way - Sanatana Dharma." - Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya

“Dharma and adharma (anti-Dharma) are opposite paths. That which elevates us, makes us healthier and more whole either spiritually, intellectually, culturally, or in any other way that we can think of, that is Dharma. Anything that denigrates us, makes us less healthy, or less whole in any manner is adharma, the opposite of Dharma. Dharma is life. Adharma is death. Follow always the path of Dharma if you wish to elevate your existence.” - Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya

“Only in the Abrahamic ideologies (Judaism, Christianity and Islam) is God portrayed as interacting with humanity through fear, guilt and hate. In actuality, God only deals with us through mercy, through love, through compassion, and through grace. We are always surrounded by that grace; but we spend most of our lives unaware of that omni-present grace. Dharma is itself the grace of God in concretized form, as that grace becomes transformed in such a manner that we can have direct access to it within the material world. Though we desire to separate ourselves from God, God never separates Himself from us. It is in upholding Dharma that we know the grace of God.” - Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya

"Although one may conquer all of the other senses, as long as the tongue is not conquered it cannot be said that one has controlled his senses. However, if one is able to control the tongue, then one is understood to be in full control of all the senses." (Srimad Bhagavatam, 11.8.21)

Embracing a Future without Fear

Monday, November 4th, 7pm Central Time

As the world continues in late 2024 to descend into a seemingly more chaotic and precarious state, many good people are experiencing increasingly heightened states of anxiety, worry and fear. But, as Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya has repeatedly assured us over the many decades of his teaching mission, there is no reason for God's devotees to ever fear. We are protected! One of the many themes that Sri Acharyaji has gifted us with over the many years of his teaching mission has been to repeat Lord Sri Krishna's inspiring message in the Bhagavad Gita, chapter eighteen, verse sixty-six. Mā śucaḥ - Do Not Fear.

In this very special livestream, Sri Acharyaji leads us in the recitation of the primary mantra for ridding ourselves of fear, and for ensuring unassailable protection from all demonic forces:

Aum Namo Bhagavate Narasinghaya

Join us as we recite this sacred mantra 108 times with Sri Acharyaji, surrendering ourselves at the feet of Sriman Narayana, and being empowered by Him to be lights in the darkness, beacons of Dharma for those in spiritual need at this special time in world history.

May the Golden Age commence!

For them the heavenly planets, liberation and the hellish planets are all the same, for such devotees are interested only in the service of the Lord.” (Spoken by Lord Shiva, Srimad Bhagavatam, 6.17.28)

"Then Bharadvaja asked Yajnavalkya: 'What is that which causes one to cross (this mundane existence)?' To which Yajnavalkya replied: 'Aum Namo Narayanaya causes one to cross (this mundane existence). It should be worshipped with a pure intellect (chidatman).'" (Tarasara Upanishad, 1.2)

“The Personality of Godhead is perfect and complete, and because He is completely perfect, all emanations from Him, such as this phenomenal world, are perfectly equipped as complete wholes. Whatever is produced of the Complete Whole is also complete in itself. Because He is the Complete Whole, even though so many complete units emanate from Him, He remains the complete balance.” (Śrī Īśopaniṣad, Invocation)

"The world is a manifestation of Vishnu’s glory at two levels of existence, the animate and the inanimate. The elements of existence have been integrated into form by the presence of Vishnu. The form is one, firm, inviolable and organismic. The world is divine, it belongs to Vishnu. It is Yajna. It is for Yajna in celebration of the maker." (Yajur Veda, 5.21)

"In the association of pure devotees, discussion of the pastimes and activities of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is very pleasing and satisfying to the ear and the heart. By cultivating such knowledge one gradually becomes advanced on the path of liberation, and thereafter he is freed, and his attraction becomes fixed. Then real devotion and devotional service begin."

“The goal of every Dharmi is to personify the Good in our lives. This means incorporating the Good in everything we do by living an ethical lifestyle. There are two forms of goodness: a) good as a virtue, and b) good in action. It is the inherent virtue of the atman to be good. The Dharmi cultivates goodness as a natural virtue by practicing goodness in action. We do this by cultivating goodness in everything that we think, say and do. We derive our knowledge of what is ethical and unethical behavior from the teachings of the Vedic scriptures.” - Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya
