The Law of Magnetism - Inspiration from the Bhagavad Gita with Swami Kriyananda

- Quoting from the timeless Indian scripture, the Bhagavad Gita, Swami Kriyananda explores and explains the link between Father, Son, and Holy Ghost of the West with Aum, Tat, Sat of the East. "All the effects of karma or action are nullified in oneself and one achieves liberation when ego attachment ceases, when one becomes centered in wisdom and when all one's actions are offered up in sacrifice to the infinite. For such a person, both the act of self-offering and the offering itself are equally aspects of the one spirit. The fire of wisdom and the person making the offering are both spirit. In this realization, the yogi freed from ego identification goes straight to Brahman, or spirit."
Every moment of creation has stillness as its center. Who is a master? It is one who has realized this truth, the heart of stillness in movement. Krishna in this passage is therefore alluding to the act of offering, the movement, and the offering itself as one in spirit. There is no separateness.
Freeing oneself from ego identification is the goal of all sadhana, to recognize that God is the Doer. People are therefore at their core not different from each other. We must learn to love them from our center.
It's most important, though, to first understand the law of exchange of magnetism. Just as in a magnet, the strong will always affect the weak, it's important also to stay away from negative people. They can pull you down spiritually. There is a power in delusion and magnetism in evil.
How do we protect ourselves from such environments and people? Kriyananda talks about the effect of music and also colors in our lives. Seemingly unimportant, these factors play an important role in determining the quality of our life.
Magnetism is a reality and understanding its laws of exchange correctly to enhances our being in this journey of life.
These talks are based on the book: “The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita by Paramhansa Yogananda as remembered by his disciple, Swami Kriyananda.” Rarely in a lifetime does a new spiritual classic appear that has the power to change people’s lives and transform future generations. This is such a book. “The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita Explained by Paramhansa Yogananda” shares the profound insights of Yogananda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi, as remembered by one of his close and direct disciples, Swami Kriyananda. This revelation of India’s best-loved scripture approaches it from an entirely fresh perspective, showing its deep allegorical meaning and also its down-to-earth practicality. The themes presented are universal, including how to achieve victory in life in union with the divine; how to prepare for life’s “final exam,” death, and what happens afterward; and how to triumph overall pain and suffering. This book is itself a triumph. Swami Kriyananda worked with Paramhansa Yogananda in 1950 while the Master completed his commentary.
ABOUT SWAMI KRIYANANDA
In 1948 at the age of twenty-two, Swami Kriyananda (J. Donald Walters) became a disciple of the Indian yoga master, Paramhansa Yogananda.
At Yogananda’s request, Swami Kriyananda devoted his life to lecturing and writing, helping others to experience the living presence of God within. He taught on four continents in seven languages over the course of 65 years. His talks, his music, and his many books have touched the lives of millions. An advocate of simple living and high thinking, his more than 150 books emphasize the need to live wisely by one’s own experience of life, and not by abstract theories or dogmas. A composer since 1964, Walters has written over 400 musical works. His books and teachings on spiritualizing nearly every field of human endeavor include business life, leadership, education, the arts, community, and science. He taught meditation to thousands and has initiated many into the life changing technique of Kriya Yoga.
He is known as the “father of the intentional communities movement,” which began in the United States in the late 1960s, fulfilling Yogananda's dream. He founded the first of what are now 10 Ananda communities worldwide in 1967 near Nevada City, California.

Hello, I think this is the same video as the previous episode of his gita commentaries, and this has happened before too! :D, anyway, im in the midst of watching it again though to listen to Swamiji and see what he wants to share this time through the video :))
Hey, this is same video which you uploaded last one. I guess you mistakenly uploaded same but given different name :)
"the importance of listening uplifted music" & "the law of magnetism...." is same videos.
What about Jesus when he sat with the Pharisees? Probably the most negative people of that time. He didn’t avoid them. Can’t we become a thermostat and not just a thermometer?
Absolutely, if you have the power to do so.
The cause of rebirth is the false notion of individualized existence, therefore karma is ONLY the actions you take to define your individuality, to "make something out of yourself" as parents foolishly tell their children. Eating chocolate cake won't produce karma because no one identifies as a chocolate cake eater. Karma is ONLY what you do to define the delusion of individuality.
Karma means actions....Every actions has a reaction...Science also says this "Every action has a reaction..."
Karma doesn't define your individuality....Your soul does....Karma only defines your character as a human...What type of a human are you? The types of Karma you are performing will be defining you as what kind of a person you are ...
