We sat down for a relaxed chat with Pramod, over a cup of chai, at her residence in India and this video series is what came out of it. Pramod rarely if ever talks about herself in her spiritual lectures and talks. But in this exclusive interview, she gives us a rare glimpse into her life for the first time ever and that is just one of the reasons why we love this series so much!

Note (1): To watch this video in its original HD splendour, visit our official YouTube channel by clicking here. Note (2): For an audio-only version, see episode # 43 below. This meditation is a collection of evocative affirmations adapted from a varied selection of sources, including Suzuki's lectures, Zen Buddhist texts, records of conversations with Sri. Nisargadatta Maharaj, philosophical tomes of Heraclitus, books on Advaita Vedanta (non-duality) and self-help classics. The profound words have been set to soul-stirring spiritual music, with stunningly beautiful scenes from nature, which will elevate you to a sweet meditative state. Here are a few suggestions on how to make the fullest possible use of this meditation: a) Let the meditation run softly in the background. Make no effort to focus on or understand the words in the affirmations. b) Simply trust that your subconscious / soul will grasp the truth to which the words point, without any effort on your part. c) Whenever there is a gap of silence, focus softly either on the music or on the silence between the musical notes, or even on the meditative visuals. Just stay rested in the sacredness of the spaces. d) Alternatively, ponder on the meanings of the words. Most of the affirmations are simple yet powerfully positive statements. However, a few of them are like sutras in their brevity and depth. Some of them are related, some stand alone. May this meditation become a portal to the deep peace and bliss that resides in your Self!

Note: This is a video presentation of an excerpt from Episode # 40 of this podcast (see below), where you will find the audio version and also the complete lecture by Pramod. Does it actually take a whole lifetime of spiritual practice to get enlightened? Pramod answers, "You are enlightened right now without any rigorous practice. So let what you call spiritual practice be a celebration of your connection, a gentle daily reminder to stay connected and to do this graceful dance between connected and not connected."

More and more athletes, dancers, stunt directors and many others involved in careers which are very physical in nature, are turning to mind work. As they warm to the idea of looking within for solutions, they often wonder how much the Law applies to their sphere of activity, because of the delicious physicality of their work. If you are one of those, then this episode is for you. In this episode, Pramod says, “Don’t be so hard on yourself and don’t look at meditation as something special you have never done in your life, something for which you still need to learn much more. Don’t turn meditation into something too sublime, too important, too formal to be done frequently and naturally. If meditation is sublime and important, you are even more sublime and important.” [Episode # 41; Running Time: 00:11:04; File Type: MP3 Audio, Digital Stereo; Content Rating: G* (*Suitable to listeners of all ages); Cover Art: A football resting on green grass, with clouds as the backdrop; Music: CC by Helios Salah; Rights: Creative Commons Attribution]
