Satsang Podcasts from the Himalayas, from TransformationMeditation.com
These talks are recorded in the Himalayas of Northern India by Shree and Dattaa from Transformation Meditation. You'll get to experience the incredible sound spaces of the famous Himalayan Sages and enjoy the spiritual power and highest inner dimensions associated with this region. “Satsang (the company of wise and enlightened persons) is a gatekeeper to liberation. Satsang enlarges one’s intelligence and destroys one’s ignorance and psychological distress. Whatever be the cost, however difficult it may be, whatever obstacles may stand in its way, Satsang should never be neglected. For Satsang alone is one’s light on the path of life. Satsang is indeed superior to all other forms of spiritual practices.” — Yoga Vasishtha - You can play the Satsang Podcasts once a week or every day to help inspire and deepen your meditation or to create ease for your morning and evening meditation practice. You can also listen to the podcast before you begin teaching your own meditation class for inspiration of what to speak about.
