A Film by Pankaj Seth
We have drunk Soma. We have become immortal.
We have gone to the light and found the gods.
Rg Veda
How Soma Gives Immortality
This is a 45 mins talk given at the Institute of Consciousness Research Canada in 2015 which contextualizes kundalini and inner experiences of light within the Brahadaranyaka Upanishad mantra...
Asato ma sat gamaya (Lead us from Impermanence to that which always is and so is called Truth, Satya)
Tamaso ma jyotir gamaya (From Materiality to Luminosity)
Mrtyor ma amritam gamaya (From Death to Immortality)
Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti
The ICRC is an organization based upon Pandit Gopi Krishna's work on Kundalini and this talk at their summer conference in Ontario's cottage country explores the Yogic quest for immortality, a quest going back into deepest human history. In this audio presentation, I speak on the experiential side of kundalini and inner experiences of light, complementing Soma/film's more formal presentation. Its fast paced, passionate and shows the experiential reality of the Yogic worldview, of Kundalini rising and the fulfillment of the Yogic/mystical ideal of immortality.
