- On 8th July, Filmmaker, Explorer and Teacher Raja Choudhury gave a compelling talk to an audience of over 100 people at IIC in New Delhi on the real Lord Shiva, exploring the meaning, origins, mythology, anthropology, spirituality, teachings and practices of this ancient yet most contemporary and relevant icon of Indian religion and spirituality today.
i have studdied many traditions for the past 19 years of my life. i have journeyed from Christian mysteries to Egyptian hermetics, ceremonial magick, to nature religions like Wicca, Druidism. Several years ago i had no prior interest in Hinduism but practiced astral travel using golden dawn based methods. I was searching for my patron deity and was expecting Hermes or a Norse deity as my ancestry or interests dictated but it was Ganesh that appeared to me. He did not say anything but i couls feel a warm loving welcoming presence from him and he beconed me come near. i approached and then the astral landscape changed and we where standing on a mountain and Shiva and Durga sat upon pillows on the mountaintop. They did not say anything either but again i felt an embracing energy like they where welcoming me into their family. After that experience i started researching Sanatana Dharma and doing Jaap.
i believe that our deities choose us more than we choose them.
Chris J wowww love it
Chris J it's abut the pass life find bac every one of us they call us bac to them because we been made by them .
Can't believe as you are indeed special with lot of hard work behind it but it is quite hard for us to sense it as real sorry about that

The beauty of Shiva is not in words. It is in the breath, the heart and the soul. Words require thinking. Breathing, Heart and Soul are being. Blessings to all. Om Nama Shivaya.
I was Raised Christian, As a student of theology my fascination grew with they unveiling of Siva. Once I read a little about who he was, is, and always will be a depiction of our lifes. at least mine. thank you for sharing
if u want to understand shiva, then u need to dig yourself as deep as you can, inside within you, i can tell u the answer, why is shiva is with the form and without the form, so, for that, answer is you, yourself, you need to observe yourself as a baby in your mother's womb, look at yourself, what form you have in the womb? then think beyond that baby form in yours mother womb, when you weren't in your mother's womb as a baby before that where were you are? what form do you have before the baby form in your mother's womb, answer is no form right? that's what shiva is, the same theory for Shiva without the form and then the baby like you lord Narayana/Vishnu came as a baby in the mothers womb and then baby became a man as Narayana from that narayana's navel lord Brama came and then shiva came from the brama with the form as Rudra, Rudra as a destroy you when you get old and he takes your soul back(so you came from him and again you go back again within him simple logic) this is like circular ellipsoid theory because of this the shiva linga is in ellipsoid form 🙏thank you brother (if u find my english bad so for tht i am really sorry ),,

I love my Shiva, thank you for teaching about him, Shiva is nothing and he is everything, I bow to Raja Choudary Sir because you are trying to open every human's third eye(the real fact, the real truth) l love u tooo sir
I felt the presence of Shiva when I journeyed with Ayahuasca. The spirit told me to learn to fly before I learnt to dance. I knew inside what "fly" meant, because words in that state of consciousness, from different beings, sound cryptic but are easily understood by one's individual ego. To "fly" meant to learn how to fully trust and take the leap as well as being light in mind/spirit and trusting yourself and the elements to keep the balance of a state of flight. To dance was shown as the planets and cosmos dancing around each other and with each other , the flowers growing and withering, and lives being born and passing to another existence and much more, but in my personal space I knew what this meant for me as an individual. The bharatnatyam dance really embodies the Shiva dance so well. I understood bharatnatyam so deeply after that experience.
Again you are one f the truly blessed
Equality of feminin as maa parvathy and purusha as shiva. Life originate.. Om Namashivaya
the more i learn about hinduism specifically shaivism it keeps getting better and better...
I'm proud to be born a hindu and shiva as my ecstasy in life. I have so much of affection to shiva. really want to see him and is in my thought every second. thank u so much fr this marvellous video . pls put more cause it becomes the day fr me. god bless !
Never get tired of hearing Lord Shiva's glories. Shambho Mahadev !
I have had only one journey in this life ❤ Aum namah shivaya
Dear Raja Choudhury. Thank you very much for allowing us this video. I turned to Hinduism not too long ago, in search of true spirituality. this has been a great video.
Thank you for making clear to someone exposed to western culture and Christianity, the deeper truth behind Indian culture. I have never understood why I always feel deeply moved by images of Indian deity, especially Shiva and Krishna, and having listened to several of your talks, feel perhaps that inwardly I have been moved because at some level of my being I have recognised something that inwardly I know to be true. Once again, thank you.
Shiva is a fallen angel who mated with women from earth..
@@njrl0909 Shiva is beyond your naive senses. Keep your Bible to yourself.
Just love listening to all these wonderful stories of Shiva. Thanks!
This man captivates. No matter what he's talking about
Thank you dear one
Shiva & Shakti come together within each of us....perfect. Thank you for your insight and wisdom.
Silvia L love your message.
Love the bright cheerful way you're presenting this. This lightness is what I call spirituality. Thoroughly enjoyed this.
Fantastic point!
from my prospective one who is balanced is seen as a odd man. caring for others is seen as weak in today's society. To show love and compassion, but know you are a man. This is the goal to achieve in life. If your an eagle on the top of the mountain to take your first flight, is just the start of the journey.

temple of pashupatinath just blows you off into a whole new different level of energy, Its like the vibration is on and on and on, theres no stopping. And if you happen to be a little receptive, just close your eyes and sit there, you'll definitely feel the upsurge that is damn mysterious.
Yes I have felt it too....amazing
Nepal and Tibet are on some very powerful ancient lay lines
True. Pashupatinath in particular is known to be a Parasmani lingam. Its the ultimate alchemist's stone buried inside the visible lingam. It is believed that the elite of the yogis known as the NATH sampradaya closely guarded this secret. Guru Gorakshanath who could precisely see the past, present and future himself chose this land as his final abode. He even went to the extent of conveying the message to the Royal king that his lineage is going to be overthrown after the 11 descendants. Such was his power and it happened right in front of our eyes back in 2008. So coming back to Pashupatinath temple, in hindu tradition, it is considered to be the most powerful and revered temple in the whole world and is also known to be the head of the 12 jyotirlinga bodies of india. I suggest you to visit this temple again after being in a state of intense yogic sadhana for significant period of time. The level of vibrations will simply knock you off.
You are so damn right. I felt that upsurge in me too. That place is just not completely on this physical plane but major part of it lies in the higher planes. I still can not forget that feeling. I can not express it in words too. Those tears, those goosebumps, that strange energy pulsating inside me......man, I surrender to the holy feet of the lord of us animals. Mahadev Shambhoo :)
Shambo yes!! pranams anna
I'm new to the stories...but I'm watching because on day about 45 years ago... in my taught mind I determined for myself that "God" is energy and that everything in the universe is energy. Over and over this is being affirmed to me. Some of our physics is researching in the same area... I find amazing just how the ancient religions actually knew. It definitely seems to me that there was at one time a greater knowledge and understanding of what it seems we are at this time processing as relearning. I can certainly understand why Buddhism grew from Hinduism....and how Christianity broke away from some of its root. A God had to become more universal ...a creator God. There are stories out there that say Jesus visited India. I can imagine that to be true... due to His emphasis on love your enemy- turn your other cheek- charity- non materialism...as in leave behind your possessions and follow him. love your wife as you love yourself-love your neighbor- and do not harm children- on and on Jesus was the historical messenger of love and compassion. Jesus also secrets...which supposedly he shared only with his disciples. In the Nag Hamadi Jesus tries to explain the more esoteric side. Having read some of that I do not think the western world would have understood that he was explaining energy. I finds it quite interesting how the Hindus perceived these energies and the ancient Egyptians seemed to also. The structure of divinity seems to be the same the world over. A divine one creator God of everything-then a creation of two or three other gods/goddess and then the demi gods..... who we now ponder that they may have been aliens.... this thought may be coming mostly from the materialistic West... trying to come to terms with the confusions of biblical teaching or rather lack of teaching. I think that the west was broken by the Catholic government. Their role destroyed so many root cultures that the west lost it's real history and has been searching for truth ever since. I believe that Hell was created by the Catholic Church as a means of control over the masses... in doing so it has created the dualistic perceptions of the breakaway "Satanic" worship and the extremes there in. I love the fact that the Hindu are focused upon consciousness. The West has a long way to go in actually understanding all of this. But there are a growing number of individuals searching for truth...and at least a better path. Thank you for you you tube video.
That was tone of, if not THE best presentations about Shiva I have ever heard. Excellent!

@@anandachary88 your English was good, I understood everything. Thank you so much for the very good explanation you gave me! Thank you for taking the time to do that for me, it was very helpful, I will be thinking and meditating on this for a while! Thank you brother ,may you be blessed by Shiva and all the Devas!
Wow! This is great stuff here. I believe this man has had encounters with lord SHIVA. I I resonate so much with what he is saying only because I had an encounter with THE GREAT SHIVA two weeks ago. SHIVA then brought in KALI after he was done showing or teaching me a few things. KALI was so excited and eager to present herself. My GOD, she is so powerful and kept raving about Shiva. She taught me a lot about my tongue. I was so scared of her pure power because at the top of my head was burning up with it. All my life I was taught to stay as far away from KALI. Now I know with SHIVA there is KALI they are on the go together always. I'm learning as much as I can about KALI now. I have to say by far your channel has explained so many things that I have experienced. This is mind-blowing Stuff man. Please share your encounters or experience with SHIVA and SHAKTI 🙏. I would love to connect with you to help me fit the puzzle together if not I understand. Thank you Sir🙏
Much love
i also had a shiva kali encounter a a few months ago has changed my life
@davinajad I would be keen to share experiences
OM NAMAH SHIVAY...🙏🙏The ultimate truth 🙏💓💜🌟🌈🌞🌛🌝🌛🌎
has anyone noticed how much it is easy to be good when we shut out the cries of all those who suffer? or how easy it is to be good when all your needs are met or how it is easy to think that we are living a life of bliss so long as we turn the eyes, ears and heart away from that which screams to us in a deafening scream in the form of silence... we forgot how to hear, how to think, how to feel and how to see
I've always been an Atheist. I had a serious of Dreams that are beyond my ability to describe. Dreams so real I BELIEVED i was there. Anyhow 🕉️
The third eye to me is directly a metaphore for open your mind and you shall learn wisdom. The Eye placed on the forehead represent our brains, and your brain is the 1 thing in your body that has unlimited potential and continually learns new things throughout your whole life.
"Shiva shakthi" - which is the form of energy we can sense with in ourselves. Awesome information to let people know about the reason of our lives and soul.
Another excellent talk! Thanks Raja!
I once had a vision of deep space, but there was a horizon. I was going towards the horizon and it was a white curving line that stretched endlessly as i came into the light i realized it was a burning flame the destroyed everything to a white dust. I believe it was the end of time and on the other side was the beginning, and the inferno was shiva

I am only a few minutes into this video, but I wanted to post my confession of enjoyment of it. I surf around and listen to a lot of lectures on esoteric subjects. And there are so many factors that go into making one Pleasant for me or not. This one is enjoyable for me, because I can understand the gentleman, and there is a softly poetic lilt to his voice while explaining scientific ideas. Anyhow, if you're into that kind of thing too, you might like this video as well!
Thank you kindly for this wonderful presentation of LORD SHIVA. Om mani pedme hum.
the stone showed here of Shiva is also in mecca ,the arabs worship that stone,as Kabba was also at one point was temple with deities and Shivas crescent moon is also associated,im not disrespecting anyone but its my research that we keep on believing outside instead of connecting to our divine light within through meditation .
Megalithic stone worship is a very early pantheistic form of worship and can be seen everywhere from Mexico to Easter Islands. It was a form of worship of the infinite power of nature and the cosmos. The cult of Shiva as we know it is not clearly seen in the Kaaba but they do have a black tone at their core. When Mohammed came to Mecca he destroyed many idols at the Kaaba to Baal, and other local deities but left the stone as it was the one they worshipped their supreme deity or El or Al'la and that became the name of their God
it's shivaling
No clear evidence of that as we find megalithic stones in Turkey, Mecca and all over the World. The stone in Mecca is referred to as the stone of El or Al La and goes back to Abrahamic times. It was like a Shiva Linga a power center for all tribes around the region. The archetype may have been the same for all Shivalingas but this one is local - blessings, Raja
Universal Quest its became them idol lolll like God it is the big black cube i see that in one of my pass life long time ago and that cube wos not good at all peaple turn arond of this and they say this is not a idol ?! 😂 esti gang the crasy .
Thank you so very much. I've been studying religions while searching for 'my truth', & this was great for helping me to understand this religion better.
Samantha Hyatte have u read bhagwd gita???
Thank you for your brilliant talk on the enigma of Lord Shiva.
Superb lecture. Shiva is my kind of outsider 🙏🏻 frighteningly perfect
Thank you, I really enjoyed your teachings. Your warming personality makes this fun to learn. Blessings
Very knowledgeable and brilliant individual. Someone who knows what he says and confident in his approach.
Why do I start studying this philosophy so late in my life?
At 58 I’ve only just just started serious discovery of ancient spirituality and how relevant and real it is now. Our next life is closer than we think. I want to learn about it now and what I can do in what remains of this life to make it so.
Oh Shit you were manipulated...
me too and i am african america and love this hinduism stuff
It is not mythology! 🙏Maybe you were brought here for a reason.
@Brian Hensley Yes. Indeed.🙏✌💓
This is the most enjoyable lecture I have ever heard.

Did shiva exist or just a metaphor for teaching
@@robertmitchell8630 yup shiva, exists, in these world, he is known the caretaker of souls, weather it is god or bad poor or rich, everyone is equal to him, most sadhus are the devotee of lord Shiva, he is also called as natraj, as god of cosmic dance, in hindusim it is refered, even the monsters, rakshahesh(people who want to destroy heaven, even workship lordshiva, because shiva consider everyone as equal, every soul exist in him, even your a Christian, or other religion, if your in a problem, just believe in him, he will surely help, his third eye, refers to destruction,

Peace. Sincere thanks for making Shiva - the Atman or Christ-principle (in the language of religion, Yoga) - in human brain physiology clearer for my understanding.
Medical doctor and renowned researcher, Dr. Tony Nader, under Maharishi’s guidance, documented how the description of the unified field of Natural Law (in the language of modern science) contained in the Veda is perfectly reflected in the structure and function of human physiology. Transcendental Meditation develops the full potential of the individual, opens all the reserves of the brain (Shiva, that creates everything by his different energies).
The scientific research has shown that everyone is really cosmic (unbounded, all inclusive; infinite). The planets, stars, the moon, the galaxies are all present within us.
The expression of the material creation (the material experience of life) from the biological standpoint of understanding is just the projection of the same laws of nature which belong to the same laws of knowledge (intelligence). The 'way' to perfection, Jivan-mukti - Atman or Christ-consciousness - the state of Cosmic-consciousness, exists:
Genesis 1:27
So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God created he him;
male and female created he them.
Manu Smṛiti
yathā pinde tathā brahmāṇde
As is the atom, so is the universe;
as is the body, so is the Cosmic Body.
Jai Guru Dev.
One thing that I understand out of everything what I read or watch about Indian concept of religion, i,e spirituality is: The ultimate energy is in complete stillness engulfed with massive concentration while He (Shiva) himself is learning about various life forms he has created and their behaviour ( I believe that's where He gets the idea of Asuras, Manavas; and setting the scenes of the four Yugas while evidencing a specific character of a particular Yuga). On Maya: Yes, we are set into multiverses (consider a whole world residing within (digestive tract, for example) us in forms of organisms, whereas we are constrained within a three dimension plane comprised of our galaxy. This universe within universe suffice for existence of multiverses. And we're originally to aim for Moksha (Enlightenment) in order to be one with Him. And since only humans have the basic sense of understanding the purpose of being here (meekly or otherwise) besides the basic understanding of 'survival' (in animals, for example), we must appreciate for this human form so that it provides us with the opportunity to escape the limits.
P.S. I would love the speaker to talk doing a linguistic analysis about ancient scriptures written in the Indian subcontinent that exhibit precisely-made calculations that are now being discovered (invested as they say) by agencies like NASA etc. For example, distance of Sun from Earth mentioned in verse form in Hanuman Chalisa.
Best,
There is one God and the aspects of the one true being are the creator, the preserver and the destroyer repeat and rinse.

@David Leo ,
These are the images you carry in your mind? That truly is Hel
Wow I'm still in the middle of this video and had a aww moment when I turned away from Shiva 13 years ago I threw away my deck of cards into a lake and what happened next the smallest loud on a sky blue day then Shiva poured rain on me like a storm.
Hi Raja, I like your sharing and the way you teach. I love the way you express to look within the own inner teacher. This empowers others to see within and learn to trust oneself. Good Spirit within to shine without. Light of Truth, pureness and insights given . Wishing you a lot of success in what you do to unfold more and more in divine order
Such a brilliant speaker raja !! You've put everything across so beautifully .
1. I appreciate that you are responding to recent comments of people.
2. The journey of 55 min has quite similar to the perception i had about Linga and seems like the Shiv Puranas have also got the similar sides and they have discussed it in a quite casually.
3. The energy places both including 12 Joti Linga and 52 Shakti Pits has some interesting stories about it but there are some practical aspects to them which we should think on and relate it with our body and awakening chakras was an interesting aspects.
4. The mountains as a natural way to conserve and radiate energy has till not been a research for our scientists but they will gradually understand it with time.
5. The symbols used in describing Shiva and their relation with mind and body was exceptional.
But the best part was the Manthan description, the simple you made it the deeper i could feel it within.
Thank you for sharing this knowledge to the world. It will be a pleasure if we could meet some day and share some thoughts. I am would love to explore your perceptions of Om Na Mah Shi Va Ya!
Battle of Mind (Vishnu) or Matter (Brahma) which is superior? Shiva is superior but what is Shiva? Umm Vishnu and Brahma is still searching for the end of the light pillar of Shiva. Hear me out. Vishnu (Mind) we are still trying to transcend our Consciousness (Rising your Mind to the Highest Hi) Vishnu going to find the peak of consciousness. Brahma (Matter) the Universe is forever expanding outward moving towards the end of the forever abyss of Space. Brahma and Vishnu are still racing. That's a mission of mankind we are Brahma (Matter) and Vishnu (Mind) and we are to Transcend both internally (introvert Ketu) and expand (extrovert Rahu) this must be the balance like a Star. The star's gravity (internal pressure) and force (external pressure) keeps it alive. If one is off balance (to much force it goes super nova also to to much gravity it will implode turn into a blackhole) it dies, we die or transcend. Is this the balance of spiritual development? The winner gained its personal power (Shakti) Brahma chasing Saraswati externally and Vishnu the one whom look inward after Lakshmi.
Beautifully explained my friend
Wow thanks
It's like Sri Bhagwan Krishna
Kurushectra is the mind
Battle between the real and unreal
The ego and the supreme conciousness etc
oh my gosh just 7min into this and I've had and amazing moment where i remember a dream that is just like this where I'm with a twin and we assent up through a strange and scary cloud of fear and are now above the illusion of it and there is a massive white flower bush and every one is full of love giving flowers to each other and we are all floating in the sky but abel to walk around and fly lots of flower are floating and falling down so gracefully to the ground on earth and we are in earths realm and it was truth that all where we were and all things are the essence of all that is heaven ~ thank you so much *
Namaste Kindred. I just wanted to say thank you for this education as I’m a white westerner and because of being conscious through a death experience. After being stabbed many years ago.
I’m very grateful you point out Lord Shiva is not the destroyer but the destroyer of all illusion. At least this is what he taught me when I was in his presents.
Also he taught me he is “only” the essence of pure love, everything else is the thinking mind living outside the present.
I also had a NDE, and in the following months Shiva proceeded to destroy every illusion I once lived with. Sometimes not so gently! I trust you made it they your Awakening too. Aho’

if u want to understand shiva, then u need to dig yourself as deep as you can, inside within you, i can tell u the answer, why is shiva is with the form and without the form, so, for that, answer is you, yourself, you need to observe yourself as a baby in your mother's womb, look at yourself, what form you have in the womb? then think beyond that baby form in yours mother womb, when you weren't in your mother's womb as a baby before that where were you are? what form do you have before the baby form in your mother's womb, answer is no form right? that's what shiva is, the same theory for Shiva without the form and then the baby like you lord Narayana/Vishnu came as a baby in the mothers womb and then baby became a man as Narayana from that narayana's navel lord Brama came and then shiva came from the brama with the form as Rudra, Rudra as a destroy you when you get old and he takes your soul back(so you came from him and again you go back again within him simple logic) this is like circular ellipsoid theory because of this the shiva linga is in ellipsoid form 🙏thank you brother (if u find my english bad so for tht i am really sorry ),,

@@anandachary88 This maybe another theory. But, I think Shiva is the Consciousness which is inside our mind.
Extraordinary 🙏🏼🙇🏼♀️🥭🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼
Jai guru!
I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR YOUR EXISTEN Raja my dear great teacher. I am an artist in Las Vegas USA I do so wish I could send you and your beloved family one of my ancient painting.
LORD SHIVA statue sits on top of my bed n neck. I love him so much but never fully understood who he really was or why.......until I ran into your TH-cam page. Like the serpent, I'd listen to every video u had created over and over. So many wonderful things that happened to me in miracle forms ever since, such as staring at the sun as you suggested and come inside and close my eyes I saw so many beautiful colors. As I went to get dress and ready to go do my meditation. I went to grab a pair of socks and there it was just those colors that I had saw in my eyes just minutes ago plus one of color was in the form of a heart.
THANK YOU... :))))))))
Thanks Rose - much appreciated - drop me an email at raja@universalquest.com - I will be out on the West Coast this summer
Rose Stout Hi Rose are u a painter
So precious, thank you Raja!
I loved this. Thank you so much for your knowledge ❤ you explained everything so well!
I saw Shiva during my first actual attempt to meditation (I've been to meditative states before and had some experiences but they were not controlled by me. It happened accidentally).
Before I get to him I had seen creatures telling me to turn (in silence but they were threatening)...Approximately 10 creatures...Then light beams as i travel through space and time...I felt 9G kinda pressure on my face and my face literally came off...I felt my skin was peeling and my bones are coming out. Then I saw a beautiful mask of a human being in black and white...I thought "this is beautiful"...Everything turned into color...Masked turned and it fit on my face...
Then fireworks, light beams of rainbow colors...Then saw an eye of red...Then another one in blue...Eyes got away to a distance and a music started...At first I did not realize it but it was "Shine on you crazy diamond" from Pink Floyd...And Shiva was looking at me without an expression...He was sitting in space in meditative posture and slowly turning...And looking at me...I looked at him...We listened to music together...Then music changed into a Hindu instrumental song then a Turkish folklore song...
I woke up....
That's why I'm going to watch this document. It was a marvellous experience.
Edit: It was not Shiva but Vishnu (I came into that conclusion as Vishnu is "the body" archetype)
thank you for sharing your experience :)
namaskar
Mi thun probably :) by the way, from later experiences i can say it was vishnu not shiva. He is "The body" archetype.
Later on i saw "thot" :) he is "the mind"
sir, You can become one with Supreme krishna i.e, Vishnu. Shiva is an aspect that you become in the process of meditation to reach till supreme Krishna or you can say Supreme Vishnu. I'm doing meditation from 17 years now n yes it happens almost involuntary that you see krishna. praise the krishna.
Ertan Saygi mmmkkkkk ni
LoL....... ur Imagination is Epic!!
❤ thank you sir 🙏 life changing discourses …
It's the CREATOR'S LOVE REFINED IN THE TEMPLE YOUR HEAD AND IN YOUR HEARTSTRINGS DESIRES TOWARDS HUMANITY YOURSELF.

Shiva - one of the most celebrated personalities in the history of the world.
Very well explained thank you for giving me a general understanding of who is Shiva. Very nice speech
Every individual is a creator when he could find his consciousness, & when they don't they create idols.

I live in Nepal, Kathmandu-capital city of Nepal where Pashupati temple is. I've visited the Pashupati Temple, and I'm being honest I never had any goose bumps or vibrations or any such things.
Mr.Choudhury is telling us a very good story and he also added a little bit of science but with lots of flaws to both science and Indian scriptures and culture.

34:50 where is that clip is from ?? that was amazing .🙏
I dont agree with you ur knowledge is very shallow and ur insulting in ur presentation.
Greetings Raja Choudhury. What is the order I should listen to your talks in? P.S. what an amazing universe we are blessed to experience!
Thank you for posting this, I thoroughly enjoyed this. please keep posting more.
Raja Choudhury the presentation was very good, i wish i could attend any future programmes of yours. I have so many questions in my mind. You helped me understand something but most of thr things are present as questions in my mind. Shiva is a complex knowledge to understand. To accept. To explain. I wish to attend your future shows if possible.
I’ve been told I have this warriors tridents all over my palms . Thank you 🙏 for this presentation.

Sadly Mount Kailash is not in India , but in China , sucks why our ancestors didn't had guts to defend our holy abode of lord Shiva and gave away home of Dalai Lama(Tibet) ,even lost Mount K2 to Pakistan , and now China is not allowing Kailash Mansarovar Yatra 😒
Wonderful, thank you
Your voice is positive energy very nice passion I enjoyed VERY MUCH
Thank you. Om Namah Shivaya
Pita Mahadev jee,Mata Parvati Mata ki jai ho🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

thank you from Australia
why I see shiva in my dreams or suddenly I hear his name I didn't even know his name before these dreams. it is really strange
May be he wants you to discover this yourself. Ask this question to your consciousness.
Interesting. Tell us more
Coz this is calling... Discover urself by knowing him... U r blessed soul ☺
Maybe because of ur prarabda.
Very interesting way of telling about the mythologies and Sacred Energy of India and I would have liked a written version too because the names are forein to me. So this is a little bit of notes from my listening. "The infinite space - the creation of the Cosmos - into a quantum fluktuation - and galacsies start - exploding imploding - dancing away - the wonder of what it is to be human today - we have to create a Shiva - an amazing superreality - fascination with beautifull round rocks - in India we find the serpent - as a symbol of the mysteries and Consciousness" - we are talking of a religion of energy and Consciousness representing the point of absolute stillness and at the same time a huge energy place. Go for the experience of energy. ( dancing is a very effective key to experience states of heightened energy. ) Shiva and Shakti has to work together in order for you to have an experience of the flowering of the unique .

Indians should desist from calling "Puranas" as mythologies.
Myth is a Western concept. Myth means that which is imagined.
"Puranas" literally mean "stories from ancient times".
Puranas were written by Veda Vyasa who also wrote Mahabharata.
Mahabharata is a "Itihaasa".
What is the difference?
Puranas were not directly witnessed by Vyasa who wrote it as he had heard from other sources.
Mahabharata OTOH happened during his life time and he was a witness.
For the same reason, Ramayana written by Valmiki, is also called a Itihaasa.
Sir you are the best. The way you explained is amazing. Thank you
Fun, fascinating and full of wisdom! Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
