The goal of sadhana or practices is the highest Joy that comes from the Realization in direct experience of the center of consciousness, the Self, the Atman or Purusha, which is one and the same with the Absolute Reality. This Self-Realization comes through Yoga Meditation of the Yoga Sutras, the contemplative insight of Advaita Vedanta, and the intense devotion of Samaya Sri Vidya Tantra. The methods are thorough, yet practical and applicable to all sincere seekers.</description><itunes:author>Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati (Swami J)</itunes:author><link>http://www.swamij.com</link><itunes:image href="http://www.swamij.com/images/sriyantra10c.jpg"/><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jan 2007 16:00:00 CST</pubDate><language>en-us</language><copyright>2006 Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati</copyright><itunes:keywords>yoga, meditation, yoga meditation, vedanta, tantra, yoga sutras, enlightenment, self-realization, shiva, shakti, kundalini, ashtanga yoga, raja yoga, karma yoga, bhakti yoga, jnana yoga, swami j, swami jnaneshvara, swami jnaneshvara bharati</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>clean</itunes:explicit><itunes:owner> <itunes:name>Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati</itunes:name> <itunes:email>swamij0604@cox.net</itunes:email></itunes:owner> <itunes:block>no</itunes:block><itunes:category text="Religion & Spirituality"> <itunes:category text="Spirituality" /> </itunes:category><itunes:category text="Religion & Spirituality"> <itunes:category text="Hinduism" /> </itunes:category><itunes:category text="Religion & Spirituality"> <itunes:category text="Other" /> </itunes:category><category>Spirituality</category> <item> <title>Developing Determination for Enlightenment</title> <itunes:author>Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati</itunes:author> <itunes:summary>From a presentation by Swami Jnaneshvara at the Center for Nondualism on February 1, 2009.</itunes:summary> <description> <![CDATA[From a presentation by Swami Jnaneshvara at the Center for Nondualism on February 1, 2009.]]> </description> <enclosure url="http://www.swamij.com/podcast/determination-090201.mp3" length="12368554" type="audio/mpeg" /> <pubDate>Sun, 1 Feb 2009 11:00:00 CST</pubDate> <guid isPermaLink="false">Developing Determination for Enlightenment</guid> <itunes:duration>00:34:20</itunes:duration> <itunes:explicit>no</itunes:explicit> <itunes:keywords>determination, nondualism, non-dualism, nondual, center for nondualism, advaita, contemplation, yoga, meditation, yoga meditation, vedanta, advaita vedanta, swami j, Swami Jnaneshvara, SwamiJ.com</itunes:keywords></item> <item> <title>The Million Dollar Question in Nondual Yoga Meditation, and Contemplation</title> <itunes:author>Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati</itunes:author> <itunes:summary>Just like the game show, this million dollar question is the last of all the questions of nondual Yoga meditation and contemplation.
