Lecture 1/5. Netherlands, 2018.

This is the first talk from a weekend retreat at the Babaji Ashram in Loenen. The sessions presented in this series further develop the themes discussed at the 2018 retreat in the same location, although they can be listened to as a stand alone series.

In this series of talks Swamiji directly addresses the following:

1. What is the Ego, and how does it appear?
2. How can we engage with the Ego consciously – and what happens if you don’t?
3. Do you want to change yourself, or to change others?
4. Are you allowing your Ego to play tricks on you; or are you ready to reflect upon your own behaviour?

As yoga is based on the philosophy of Samkhya, Swamiji also discusses the concept of duality and how it appears life. As well as turning his attention to how we can find durable inner peace.
