Episode 04: The Path of Surrender – Om and the Divine Will(Part 4 of 5)

Описание: In this fourth installment, Rukmini moves from the mechanics of personal effort to the profound practice of surrender, exploring one of Patanjali’s most significant "shortcuts" to peace.

The Essence
While Yoga requires great effort, Patanjali also offers a path of grace: Ishvara Pranidhana, or surrender to the Divine. In this episode, Rukmini Chaitanya explores how letting go of the ego’s "me and mine" mentality can dissolve the obstacles of the mind and lead us more quickly toward the state of Samadhi.

In This Episode, We Explore:

Ishvara Pranidhana: Understanding surrender not as weakness, but as a powerful spiritual realignment with a higher reality.

The Sacred Sound of OM: Exploring why Patanjali identifies the syllable Om as the direct designation of the Divine and how its repetition clarifies the consciousness.

Removing the Inner Obstacles: How devotion acts as a shield against the mental distractions and illnesses (Vikshepas) that naturally arise on the spiritual path.
