Sometimes I Need to Hear It Again

Attending Swami Sunday online gives me an infusion of Grace each week.  Sometimes there’s a satsang that especially speaks to me, and I need to hear it again.  Sometimes, again and again!  

With Gurudevi’s Deep Teachings videos online, I can easily watch them.  The subscriber discount makes it cost less than a latte at Dunkin’® Donuts.  It’s so powerful to see Gurudevi in these videos.  More of my senses are engaged.  Grace is just pouring out of the screen.

I visit my son in California every few months.  Before flying, I rent and download several videos to watch during the flight.  It’s like having Gurudevi with me.  Each video is available for three days, and I can watch as many times as I want in those three days.  The three-day clock doesn’t start ticking until I start watching.

Another way I use them is on a long drive. I drive from Massachusetts to New Hampshire regularly to see my 85-year-old dad, who needs lots of support.  I load the videos onto my phone, put it in my cupholder and listen.  It puts me in a great state for whatever I encounter with my dad that day.  These videos are a game-changer. 

Gurudevi’s satsangs are grounding me in a deeper understanding of the teachings. That’s especially so when I watch the videos multiple times. Last week, I taught a “Troubleshooting Your Meditation” class.  I noticed I was teaching from a greater depth.  Both I and my students benefitted from that.
