"A Yogi is free from attachment to all objects and actions."13:56 "Once liberation is achieved, a need for anything else never occurs."17:58 When the mind becomes completely silent, it shines forth with this true knowledge. It wasn't learned from books.22:35 Is there a point when the mind becomes silent, where true knowledge just appears, or comes to you?23:51 And does all ignorance, and false belief, just vanish at that time?24:38 If you quiet your mind and you lose all desire and there's nothing to achieve in the world, what allows the body to move, to function and perform action?26:49 Why does knowing the Self bring Supreme Peace and perfect contentment to the mind? 28:43 Verse 15. "A Yogi always sees the Self everywhere."31:03 The Yogi identifies with being pure consciousness. How does he see the world?32:08 Verse 16.  From the standpoint of just being a person, it sounds pretty callous, but from the standpoint of a Yogi, everything seems all proper.33:34 It seems that you still have thoughts, ideas and imaginations?35:30 Do Yogis daydream?36:33 Dreams can come up because the brain generates those?37:28 Verse 17.  A Yogi's consciousness is always detached.40:15 Could you elaborate on the consciousness of existence, what that is and how it merges into the Self?41:42 The abyss between the changing world and non-changing existence.44:09 A Yogi does not perform activities, though it might appear that they act.47:08 Verse 20.  For a Yogi, no depression or dullness would ever occur.49:23 The state of a Yogi and a guru, are these two terms synonymous? Like, is every Yogi a guru?50:38 Is the importance of a guru always in the faith of the disciple?51:29 If Babaji suggests something to a disciple, is that because the disciple was looking for that suggestion?52:09  If a Yogi does not have compassion, why do Yogis bless people?53:13 For a householder, if they reach samadhi and there is no motivation left, how would they care for their family?55:00 Is it true that some Yogis take the body with them when they pass?55:44 Does black magic exist?___Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6YHFKcPK_XT96VO7xuk6RQWebsite: http://www.srby.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/shivarudrabalayogiTwitter: https://twitter.com/SRBYmissionInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shivarudrabalayogi/Register your free place for the live online meditation and Q&A with Babaji: https://www.shivarudrabalayogi.org/en/online-satsang Website: http://www.srby.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/shivarudrabalayogiTwitter: https://twitter.com/SRBYmissionInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shivarudrabalayogi/
