    "The understanding comes from knowing you are not your body If a person engages in the process of bhakti yoga and yet continues to engage in activities that are detrimental to spiritual progress, his spiritual progress will be very slow. This does not mean that a person must be completely free of all bad habits before he can even begin the process of bhakti yoga. For example, in the Philippines, one teacher saved many young people who were addicted to heroin and other drugs by teaching them the process of bhakti yoga. It took some time before they could completely give up all drugs; but eventually they did. Siddhaswarupananda"

Satisfaction - Jagad Guru Chris Butler Quotes - 0 views

  •  
    "You can eat so much food that your belly aches-yet you still want more! Even though your belly is filled to the point of physical pain, you, the self, are not full; you still desire to consume more. The fact that the body can be full or satisfied while you still feel empty is evidence that the body is not you."Read More....

Happiness - Jagad Guru Chris Butler Quotes - 0 views

  •  
    "  Insights of wisdom … enable us to see the hollowness and fundamental unsatisfactoriness of a life devoted primarily to the pursuit of material ends, to the neglect of the spiritual. Such a life necessarily sets man against man and nation against nation, because man's needs are infinite and infinitude can be achieved only in the spiritual realm, never in the material.*  "Read More...

Science of Identity Foundation - 0 views

  •  
    Unlike religion, in which an individual may believe or not believe in something (regardless of its truth or untruth), yoga is a science; and as a science it is a quest to understand or know the truth as it is. The Science of Identity Foundation, by teaching the science of yoga , assists individuals who want to know the truth of their identity (i.e., their true essence and their relationship to the physical body, the mind, etc.) to realize the actual purpose of their life and learn where actual happiness is found.Read More.....

Science Of Identity - Wisdom - 0 views

  •  
    "ROOT CAUSE OF CRIME Criminologists and social scientists have almost completely overlooked the fact that materialism is the root cause of crime. False identification of the body as the self leads people to believe that sense enjoyment will make them happy and satisfied; and most crimes are directly or indirectly connected with the attempt to find satisfaction in sense enjoyment."

The body shop - 0 views

    A famous football player in the United States who recently retired was discussing the particular event that made him decide to quit playing. He had been running with the football toward the goal, with two tacklers chasing him. As his legs started giving out, he thought, "Come on, you old legs-don't give out on me now!" This is like a race car driver who talks to his car: "Keep on going, Betsy-don't let me down now!" In other words, you use your body as a type of vehicle; but like all vehicles, it is bound to break down sooner or later. ~ Chris Butler speaks (Jagad Guru Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa)  Science of Identity Foundation

Are you really your body? - 0 views

  •  
    You are your body, right? You are chemical in essence ... right? At least, that's what one of America's most influential scientists claims: I am a collection of water, calcium and organic molecules called Carl Sagan. You are a collection of almost identical molecules with a different collective label.*Like Sagan, most people believe that they are their body. So if you ask them who they are, they think and respond in terms of bodily labels. "I'm Susan. I'm blond, 29 years old, a mother, and still 36-24-36!" "I'm Henry. I'm a white American male and proud of it!""I'm John. I'm a lawyer. I'm 40 years old and getting older every day.""I'm Alice. I'm a female student. I'm fat and I'm a Methodist." Name, race, age, sex, religion, nationality, occupation, height, weight, and so on-all these are bodily labels. Therefore if you consider your body to be yourself, you automatically identity yourself with such labels. If your body is fat and ugly, you think, "Woe is me! I am fat and ugly." If your body is 60 years old and female, you think "I am a 60-year-old female." If your body is black and beautiful, you think, "I am black and beautiful." But is the body really the self? Are you really your body?

"Full but still empty" - 0 views

  •  
    If you identify your body as yourself, you will try to satisfy yourself by trying to satisfy your body. You'll think, "I am the body and I want to be happy, I want to be satisfied." Thus, you'll try to satisfy the belly, the tongue, the genitals, the ears, the eyes, the nose, and so on, believing that this will bring you the inner satisfaction and happiness you crave.But sense gratification does not satisfy. This is further evidence that you are not the body. No matter how much sense pleasure you have, you are still never satisfied within.Read More..

    "We've got some pictures here of a grandfather of one of the people here. So basically this is when he was a baby, then this is when he was a young man, then this is when he was a middle-aged man. And then what do you call this? Old man already, right? See, there are very great differences, especially if, for example, you go from the baby to this one. Then here's a picture of just before his departure [death] there. It's such a radical difference there. Read more...  "
