Swami Mukundananda

The Secret to A Happy Life. Must Watch Audio Podcast! In this, Swami Mukudananda shares the key to happiness, and that key is nothing else but our thoughts; we become what we think about. Thoughts impact every aspect of our life. Thoughts play a vital role in determining the quality of our life. All our actions have their seeds in the thoughts. The quality of your life is largely determined by the quality of the mental states you live in day to day – states like love, anger, happiness, fear and excitement. So it's of utmost importance we give enough care to what kind of thoughts we bring in our mind. Positive thoughts will have a positive impact, negative thoughts will have negative impact. To illustrate this point Swami Mukundananda shares the example of research conducted by Japanese Scientist Masaru Emoto, the effect of thoughts on water. Masaru Emoto experimented with crystallizing water under various thoughts. Every time water was crystallized with a positive word, music, sentiment around it, it formed beautiful crystals while water that was exposed to hateful and negative words & feeling produced malformed and fragmented crystals. Such is the impact of thoughts on water. The human body is 70% water, 90% at birth. Which brings us to realize how big is the impact of our thoughts on the health of our body & mind. What Masaru Emoto proved through his experiments, the holy Vedas have said since thousands of years: “Mana eva manushyanam karanam bandha mokshayoh” – Panchadashi The mind alone is the cause of bondage and liberation. The seeds of our actions are our thoughts. Good thoughts lead to good actions, bad thoughts lead to bad actions, it's as simple as that! Listen to the track to learn more about how thoughts are the secret to a Happy life!

Discover who you are/who am I? The basic spiritual question in Indian philosophy and the answer to this question is given by different scriptures, accepting the authority of the vedas.

When mind becomes purified we will be situated in the self on the platform of the soul. About Maharshi Patanjali, one of the six sages who wrote Shad Darshan (the six-philosophical theses,) is a highly regarded Sanskrit scholar with multifaceted dimensions. His Yog Sutras(also known as Yog Darshan) that primarily deals with sadhana or spiritual practices is in the form of sutras. These sutras are “simple yet effective aphorisms that have strung the philosophy,” says Swami Mukundananda ji. The Yog Sutras are not only ancient but also very practical. Modern Psychologists too are discovering its utility in guarding or in regaining mental health. In this preamble to Patanjali Yog Sutras, Swamiji introduces us to one of the primary requisites for spiritual progress, while answering these questions in a lucid manner - Who is Patanjali? What was the purpose of his birth? How did Yog Sutras come about? What are the elements of Yog Sutras?.

Swami Mukundananda in this speech in Yale University explains the philosophy behind bad things happening to good people. What we think as a good or bad thing is all based on the limited understanding of our mind and intellect, but from a divine perspective, these things all happen for a reason, which is for own growth and the elevation of the soul. Swamiji presents us with few stories and convincing arguments about why what we may see as a bad thing now is not necessarily bad in the long term. When we truly endeavor to grow in our lives and desire to elevate our mind and intellect, we will perceive all the things that happen to us currently, whether it feels good or not so good now, are always designed for our growth.
