Consciousness is separate from thought. It is the source from which thought arises, though ordinarily thoughts emerge in a haphazard way. Through disciplined practice and by going deep within, when you discover consciousness, from which thought arises, then, thought is no longer haphazard and it comes under your awareness and direction. In the state of illumination, we transcend thought altogether.

Who is the Divine Mother Kali? | Sri M Explains

https://youtu.be/olDQHgl4zo0

In this insightful discourse, Sri M explains the profound symbolism of Divine Mother Kali as described in the Kulārṇava Ta**ra. From her flowing hair and four arms to the garland of heads and her standing upon Shiva, each aspect points to the destruction of conditioning, ego, and attachment in the seeker’s journey towards the Supreme.

Through a humorous yet meaningful story, Sri M also reminds us that devotion to the Divine—especially in the fierce form of Kali—calls for sincerity and complete inner honesty. The Divine knows the heart; spiritual aspiration cannot merely be expressed in words, but must be accompanied by a genuine readiness to surrender.

This lecture was part of Sri M’s Saundarya Lahari workshop, held from 13 to 15 June 2024 and conducted by The Sacred Grove Foundation, UK.

Sri M’s Guru Purnima Message: True Transformation Over Ritual

With the traditional sound of cymbals, drums, and trumpets, the sacred procession arrived from the Adinath Sriguru Mahavatar Babaji Temple at the Shivalaya for Guru Purnima 2026. Sri M welcomed the Utsava Murtis, offered aarti, and began the morning satsang under the graceful canopy of the peepal tree.

To gently ground the high-spirited crowd, Sri M emphasized that true spiritual progress required kindness, compassion, and a focus on the Supreme Reality.

Referencing the Keno Upanishad, Sri M explained that the all-pervading consciousness lives within everyone. Reaching it doesn't require complex rituals, but a simple life defined by compassion, simple living, and sincere prayers for the well-being of all beings (Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu).

From ancient times, meditation has been defined as one-pointedness, not pointing to a point, but a state where the mind is not allowed to be scattered or dissipated in different directions. It is brought into one point.
If you can learn the art of being one-pointed, whether in meditation or in day-to-day life, you will naturally remain in a meditative state all the time. Whatever you do, you do with one-pointedness. Then meditation also ceases to be an effort. The moment you sit down, it arises naturally.

HAPPY GURU PURNIMA 2026

Sri M teaches that the true path of spirituality lies in inner transformation through the sincere daily practice of the teachings, living with awareness, self-discipline, inner tranquillity, kindness, and selfless service, with the welfare of all beings at heart.

As he reminds us:

"The most important service you can render to a spiritual teacher is to understand and follow the teachings. That's the best way to give respect to the teacher."

On this sacred day of Guru Purnima, we bow down in deep gratitude to the Guru, the dispeller of darkness, the light of Truth, and the guide on our journey within.

Let us come together in spirit to honour the lineage of Masters who illuminate our path, not just in celebration, but in sincere resolve to imbibe their teachings in our daily lives.

May our thoughts be pure, our actions selfless, and our hearts open to receive the wisdom of the eternal Guru within and without.

With Love and Prayers,
The Sacred Grove Foundation

The maximum that can be achieved is that one can go close to the Truth. But when we go very close, the heat and the energy are such that we no longer remain. We are burnt off totally. What remains is only the Truth. As long as ‘I am’ is there, there is no ‘That’. When ‘That’ is there, ‘I am’ is not. Therefore, there are no two. As far as the verbal understanding of Reality is concerned, you can go only as near as possible because the Upanishad itself declares: ‘Yadvācānabhyuditaṁ yena vāgabhyudyate,’ which means, “That which words cannot conceive of or understand.” Therefore, words can only go as close as possible.

The only data available to all of us is through the five senses, the pancha indriyas and it is not only limited, but also sometimes misleading. It may be what we think is right, which may not be right. Using this data the mind manufactures a rational framework and we say this is my rational framework and it is absolute, but it keeps on changing depending upon the inputs, the data.
