The Secret to 24/7 Bliss
Bliss, that serene inner contentedness, that feeling of stability and being at peace with everything, is not to be found on the relative, storyline level of life.
Return to Innocence
Return to innocence. The return to Self. This is both the process and the outcome of meditation.
Mums who Meditate
“Each child is a story unfolding chapter by chapter” - Maharishi Vyasananda Saraswati.

Self love
'Should' is an anathema to evolution
“Should” is primarily based on the opinions of others, your own fears and need for acceptance and safety. It suffocates you from your own intuition and the evolutionary impulses moving within you.
