For the Love of Yoga with Nish the Fish

The Most Important Spiritual Idea

Nishanth Selvalingam Season 8 Episode 186

Recently, we've been giving a series of talks on our values and ideals, based on what Swami Vivekananda said about his Master, Sri Ramakrishna. Having discussed our heritage in Where Did Kālī Come From? | A Brief Herstory we express how wonderful what we inherited is and how important it is for us to aspire to the very highest of ideals in order to maintain and transmit that heritage for future generations.

In articulating those values, we first took up the subject in Advice to Spiritual Teachers & Aspirants and expanded inSex, Drugs & Choosing A Guru | Q&A. Finally, in Our Mission | A Manifesto our discussion reached somewhat of a crescendo. In this class, we continue our reading of Swami Vivekananda's "My Master" (a compilation of two talks he gave in 1896 on Sri Ramakrishna) to emphasize the central value that is at the very heart of our lineage; we point out its metaphysical foundations and its implications in our spiritual lives.
