ISTAGOSTHI: Questions and Answers with Swami Padmanabha — August 10, 2024

0:00 Intro

0:04:44 Is samadhi in the 8-fold system the same as samadhi in the bhakti tradition?

0:20:38 How do we deal with our emotions in order to stay in the flow of the present moment?

0:39:26 I notice that sometimes using “godbrother” and “godsister,” at least in addressing people in groups by that designation, has a way of being divisive, because there is a tendency for it to leave many others in the group feeling left out. Is there a proper place to address each other as “godbrother” and “godsister”?

0:48:48 What are your thoughts about the saying “Krishna is testing us” when we face difficulties?

1:04:33 Is Paramatma realization eternal or something else?

1:12:54 In meeting many people, I’ve noticed that there is a wave on upward moving consciousness. This seems contrary to the description of Kali-yuga. What do you think is the cause of the increase of consciousness?

1:24:40 What are some internal workings that we can aspire toward in order to develop a non-judgmental equal vision of others?
