AWARENESS NOW

Our Sound Crosses Dimensions

Sri Davananda — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 04:27:44 GMT

We have to consider that we have only a small idea of what is really going on, that our limited sense are only giving us a glimpse of reality. With that in mind it is quite possible that sound can travel between dimensions into realms that bring us back that gifts we ask for out loud. Give this singing bowl meditation a sit, and spin your wishes for self and other and world.

If Bugs Are Together

Sri Davananda — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 13:30:48 GMT

The cicada bug, also known as locust has something we human beings don't always practice. Let's take a lesson from them.

The Beauty of Missing Things

Sri Davananda — Sun, 13 Jul 2008 01:54:25 GMT

When it occurs that something is wrong it is not...it is only that something could be there, where you are, and it is missing. For me since becoming a father I noticed today what it is I have been suffering over. Take a look for yourself and see what may be missing to end your own today.

You As the Center of Sound

Sri Davananda — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 20:22:28 GMT

Here we explore an empowering position on the source of all sound and our relationship to it. When the bird sings and sky thunders it is easy, but how about when baby is crying and mother is complaining!?

Betrayal and Forgiveness and The Grudge

Sri Davananda — Thu, 01 May 2008 05:25:08 GMT

Today we will look through the lens of quantum physics and a principle called 'entanglement' to help provide us with a powerful insight into who we are. How can we use Betrayal, Forgiveness and the Grudge to learn and become closer to one another...so close we ARE the other.

Marshmallow Consciousness

Sri Davananda — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 04:25:48 GMT

Marshmallow Consciousness is a fun way to look at the vastness of who we are for each other...a way to play with our self from a sticky and sweet viewpoint of each other that ultimately brings people up, and together.

Word As Creation Part 1

Sri Davananda — Thu, 14 Feb 2008 06:10:17 GMT

This is a conversation on the formation of word, How it is assembled, What word is, What we bring to word and the possibilities for us using them well. Enjoy! I think we need much more time with this one.

Meditation On Weightlessness

Sri Davananda — Fri, 08 Feb 2008 08:17:38 GMT

This is a useful and refreshing meditation on who we are as separate from our bodies. There is You and Your body. There is the object and the observer. Enjoy the separation and the weightlessness that comes about. Let go of the association with your body and the pounds will drop away!

No More Jobs! Be of Service.

Sri Davananda — Sat, 12 Jan 2008 03:25:07 GMT

Thank you Michael for requesting this conversation. Many people are out of meaning work these days. Don't feel alone. Focus on what really matters...contributing to others with whatsoever that special gift yours is. THAT will make the most difference for other people. You work is a holy gift, an expression of gratitude for being here with the gift of life you have been given.

Sex and Death

Sri Davananda — Sat, 31 Mar 2007 23:59:10 GMT

An episode even I have been waiting to create ever since a listener asked about a specific problem. The area of sex and death are massive, worth many lifetimes of exploration. In a half hour or so we look at it from an angle that might be surprising if practised. Enjoy where it brings you.

The Fourty Pound Chicken

Sri Davananda — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 04:29:46 GMT

If there is pressure in our lives, we are growing...just look at a fourty pound chicken!

Using The Mind To Create

Sri Davananda — Sat, 17 Mar 2007 02:52:50 GMT

We all envision something for ourselves that is not yet reality for us. As soon as we do this, IT is there and we are here, there is distance. We use our eyes and our minds wrongly, keeping things as they are or we use our eyes and minds in a way that assists us in materializing our dreams. This conversation takes a look at accelerating the process, and, how we get in our own way.

Not One Single Brick

Sri Davananda — Tue, 27 Feb 2007 15:39:55 GMT

What we focus upon we move towards, attract, and grow. If we focus on bricks in our way, we have more bricks in our way. Sometimes all we can wee with our eye is bricks, walls, barriers to what we want. As long as we put our eye on this, this is what we will have. Let it be our aim to assist each other to put our focus on what works for a worthwhile future.

We Are A Field For Planting

Sri Davananda — Sat, 24 Feb 2007 21:41:31 GMT

We are going on a meditation now where we imagine self as a field. What nourishment is in our field and what is unable to grow in it. What is already coming from our field? What would we like to have springing forth from it ? Be ready to do some writing afterwards if you are so inclined.

I Am Results Versus Its Results

Sri Davananda — Sat, 24 Feb 2007 06:23:30 GMT

Here we go on a ride to separate who we are from what we still carry around with us, what can get in the way of producing the results we want, and what happens when we go about our day with too much time on our hands devoted to honoring the chatter of a dinasaur. What it will take to consciously create every moment?

Listener Request For Effectiveness

Sri Davananda — Wed, 21 Feb 2007 00:07:34 GMT

We are up to 300 listeners. Oregon emailed to suggest creating groups of a few friends to listen and then get together and share where some of these conversations and meditations are making a difference. Also, if we can hit 300 we can hit 1000...invite some more friends on board this little ship.

Nothing For The Hawk To Survive

Sri Davananda — Tue, 20 Feb 2007 14:56:01 GMT

In this moment we look at one thing we do to survive. Unlike the hawk, a blade of grass or fruit tree, we have to know how, figuring things out, defending, be right. Imagine the impact this has on other human beings doing the same thing we are all the time and for nothing.

Creating New Scriptures Or None

Sri Davananda — Fri, 16 Feb 2007 06:09:51 GMT

What in the world would we do without some form of scripture to follow? Is it working for us or are we working for it? What is one form of scripture we all seem to agree on without any question or concern?

We Know Nothing At All

Sri Davananda — Thu, 15 Feb 2007 14:46:30 GMT

As human beings we only have a few developed senses, yet we go through most of our day as if what we percieve is all there is. Let us get curious about what else could be going on beyond our limited sensory organs.

Push The Button Same Song

Sri Davananda — Wed, 14 Feb 2007 15:02:40 GMT

Playing the same song over and over or learning new songs. Which ones are you singing? Are we subjecting others to our same old song and are they singing along?

Spaciousness of Being

Sri Davananda — Fri, 09 Feb 2007 07:08:22 GMT

Meditation on a special perspective. One that is with you all the time, yet one that is rarely if ever experienced at all. Let us go over this meditation until we see it clearly. Once we do, it will never be forgotten. Once we do, how will we use it for our living and for those around us?

Creating Who Are We Now

Sri Davananda — Thu, 08 Feb 2007 04:47:22 GMT

The things that are closest to us, our voice, manner, way of being, smell, our name, our bodies, eyes, the way we talk and form words and move our faces...have become so familiar that we are no longer the creator of ourselves. Are we willing to be so present and aware that nothing escapes us?

The Genesis of Waking Up

Sri Davananda — Wed, 07 Feb 2007 06:42:08 GMT

We are going to use the common biblical theme of Genesis to explore waking up, separating real from unreal and touching on what now-ness is. In the begining there was the word, then Light and Dark. There are estimations that the world may be in the dark right now, grovelling aimlessly in the unreal. Let us turn on the light while the human experiment can still reach the light switch.

Meditation On What Remains

Sri Davananda — Tue, 06 Feb 2007 03:28:00 GMT

When you have come to a dead end you must remember where it was you meant to go. This meditation may spark your memory.

Expectations In Relationships

Sri Davananda — Mon, 05 Feb 2007 05:44:57 GMT

Here we touch on an area of relationships that causes so much suffering. Are we willing to surrender to another? Are we willing to not know another? Are we willing to drop all expectations and demands of our beloved and allow liberation to come in?

Running Conversations

Sri Davananda — Sat, 03 Feb 2007 21:30:58 GMT

Today we notice the many different conversations we have with our self which take hold of us. Which one to honor?

The Seagulls and Survival

Sri Davananda — Sat, 03 Feb 2007 21:24:27 GMT

A look at the things we chase after. After all, what is nourishing and fulfilling?

Listening and Meditation

Sri Davananda — Fri, 02 Feb 2007 04:57:51 GMT

You may have been meditating for many years now, however, this might just be a new view of the same island from a different airplane...or it may be atotally new island. Enjoy!

The Promise of Relationship

Sri Davananda — Thu, 01 Feb 2007 02:55:34 GMT

This one is a meditation on promises in relationship and what can expand within us if we allow ourself to break open. There was a problem with my recorder on the last one so I did my best to clean it up. Enjoy!

Suffering and The Water Pipe

Sri Davananda — Wed, 31 Jan 2007 00:45:24 GMT

It is time for a little look to where we suffer. Take a few moment, or an hour, or a whole day...even a few hours over the next weeks to investigate the questions. Let it be a daily meditation, an investigation, an inquiry...the orange is sweeter when take time to peel it!
