  In recent years, a noticeable number of sincere spiritual seekers have been stepping away from formal spiritual organizations. This is often misunderstood as a “loss of faith” or a decline in purity and discipline. In reality, many of these individuals are not turning away from spirituality at all. They are turning away from structures that no longer align with their inner experience of truth. This article explores why that happens, using themes that are increasingly visible in many modern spiritual communities: the shift from personality-based devotion to universal consciousness, the tension between lofty teachings and human politics, and two particular ideas that are especially challenging for institutional models of spirituality: non-dual oneness and sacred union of the masculine and feminine. From Personal God-figure To Universal Consciousness For many practitioners, the turning point comes through direct spiritual experience. Through deep meditation, inner silence, or moment...

  Love is often misunderstood as merely the attainment of physical connection or the possession of another’s body. However, true love goes far beyond the tangible. It transcends the physical realm, reaching into the soul, where it resonates as a deep, emotional, and spiritual experience. Love: A Deep Connection Between Soul and Body True love is not simply about being physically close to someone. It is about the powerful waves of emotions, the surging energy, and the overwhelming feelings that arise when one surrenders to love. These feelings are so intense that, in the embrace of love, a person may lose themselves entirely - forgetting everything, even their own sense of self. It is a moment when the body and soul come together to experience a deep, fulfilling sense of peace and happiness. The Search for Ultimate Peace The ultimate desire in love is to reach a place where both body and soul are completely at ease. In this space, the individual experiences a profound tranquility, o...

  The question, "What does a woman truly want?" has been a subject of intrigue and debate for centuries. A tale from ancient times provides a fascinating answer to this age-old query, shedding light on the deeper truths of human nature and freedom. The Scholar's Dilemma Once, a learned scholar was sentenced to death. The king, in an attempt to grant him mercy, posed a question: "Tell me, what does a woman truly want? Answer correctly, and I will spare your life". The scholar, though wise, could not provide an answer. He requested time to search for the answer and, in a rare moment of grace, the king allowed him one year to find the truth. During his year-long journey, the scholar consulted countless people, from wise men to sages, but none could provide a satisfactory answer. Frustrated and on the verge of losing hope, he heard of an old witch living in a distant land who might have the answer. The Witch's Deal The witch, a mysterious figure, agreed to provi...

  In today's world, it seems that everyone has a grievance. Whether it's a complaint about the world, other people, or even our own circumstances, negativity seems to dominate many aspects of our lives. This article explores the dynamics of human relationships in modern times, emphasizing the importance of introspection, self-control, and maintaining genuine connections with those who matter most. The Culture of Comparison and Criticism One of the key issues that people face today is the relentless comparison with others. " Every man tries to make another look inferior ". This phrase highlights how, in a world where competition is often celebrated, people are constantly trying to outshine each other, sometimes at the cost of others' dignity. This behavior is fueled by insecurities and a deep need for validation. We tend to measure our worth against others, rather than focusing on our own growth and values. The Illusion of Superiority Moreover, there's a pervas...

  In a world where happiness is often defined by external achievements or relationships, it's easy to forget that true fulfillment starts within. We are constantly surrounded by pressures to conform, achieve, love, and be loved. However, a deeper, more meaningful happiness comes when we learn to appreciate and love our own lives, just as they are. Loving Yourself First Perhaps the true essence of lasting happiness isn’t about finding love in someone else, but about falling in love with your own life. It begins with the small, everyday moments - the simple joys we often overlook. Imagine indulging in your favorite food, savoring every bite without distraction or guilt. Taking the time to appreciate the beauty of a sunrise or sunset, allowing nature's quiet moments to remind you of the world’s vastness and your place in it. Lasting happiness is not dependent on the approval of others; it’s about embracing and cherishing the life you’ve created for yourself. It’s about reconnectin...

  Spiritual practice is often romanticised as peace, light and bliss. The reality is less polished and far more intense. The inner journey is an endless exploration of consciousness, and in the beginning it can be confusing, deeply emotional, and sometimes downright unsettling. Many new practitioners start their sadhana (spiritual practice), encounter a few strange experiences, get scared, and quit. Not because anything “wrong” is happening, but because what is happening is new, unfamiliar and beyond the usual logic of the mind. This journey is, at its core, a journey into your own Self. As the mind and body begin to respond to deeper awareness, they throw up sensations, sounds, lights and emotions that don’t fit into everyday categories — but they are very real. This article walks through some of those early experiences and how to relate to them, without panic and without fantasy. Early Mysterious Experiences in Sadhana At the start of sincere practice, mind and body begin to open...
