Listen "Generosity in life- threatening times"
Episode Synopsis
OM Namo Narayanaya sweet practitioner!
Today we dive into the third method to overcome adversity and practice generosity - we get inspired by our heroes, heroines, idols, saints and sages and find out how they overcome challenges so we can too apply it in our situation, in our lives.
We hear about the true incident when swami Sivananda was physically attacked with an axe by one of the ashramites. Swami Sivananda's hand did get scraped on the axe but thankfully that was the only injury during the attempt. The assailant was protected and saved by Swamiji, guided with techniques to overcome the negative thought tendencies, initiated into yogic mantra and send with a blessings and many gifts.
We get inspired by the love, kindness, generosity, gratitude, grace, worship and mercy swami Sivananda embodied and manifested towards him in a moment of a life-threatening situation.
At 19:36 we start our meditation with centering our mind on a chosen teaching moment. We plant mental affirmations for positive patterns to grow.
We visualize all the people in our life and how we take the strong resolve to be generous with them in our thoughts, words and actions.
Our meditation concludes with chanting of the mantra:
Lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu
May the whole world be in peace and harmony. May every being be happy.
Stay blessed my friend!
Om Namo Narayanaya 🕉 🙏
