About this channel - 'Supreme Yogi':
The word "Supreme" represent the 'highest Truth' (our inner Self or God or the Source of creation) that we all are seeking, and the word "Yogi" means one who attained union with that 'highest Truth' through years of spiritual discipline or sadhana. Since this channel is all about the teachings of such realized yogis, it is apt to use the name "Supreme Yogi".
Many of these great yogis lived in a time and place where there were no facilities available to record their teachings other than in written form. These valuable teachings are available only in book sources and hence this channel is a humble attempt to spread some of these hidden teachings to modern seekers who're searching for spiritual guidance and inspiration.
If you've any enquiries or feedback, please contact: supremeyogivideos@gmail.com
May you all get benefited from the videos shared through this channel. Stay blessed.
You are alone in your journey
But many are going with you 😎
They are all at their respective transportation of mind.
Yes many are going with me eventough I am alone.
I hope my neighbor isn't coming, because he's a bad boy.
So very true! We are all together and yet our journey is our own, uniquely alone! 🙏🕉️🌺
@@antoniodg2673 Bring your neighbour, it sounds like he needs to join us!
Every time I see videos of great Yogis,my heart fills with extreme joy for my roots,my motherland India,what a great country with a profound and rich culture.
focus on the message, not the fact that they were born in india. I couldn't care less if they were born in Panama, as long as they found and revealed these kinds of knowledge. Namaskaram 🙏🙏
@@pradeeppandey743 Perhaps..you didn't get it mate. We should be concerned with both the message and the source of the teachings. India has always been the spiritual capital of the world. Don't underestimate the soil of this land.
@@briandepalma7252 If your end goal is mukti/moksha, why should it matter? now if your goal is to stay a human for a few more lifetimes then sure, focus on the country and the material world. I'm not hating against india though, god bless this dev bhumi my shastang namaskaram to the pious soil 💗💗
There is some reason why we have taken birth in India , we are very lucky
@@briandepalma7252 Ireland agrees 🙏💯👁️
All students of our modern schooling system must be taught this gem of Yoga.
Santanu Kumar Acharya I believe it should be taught worldwide. When it isn’t, makes me wonder if it was suppressed by the power seeking few...
Santanu Kumar - Your good suggestion should apply for Hindu people only. If school start to apply on children of other religions, they'll try to down Hindu & will defend their Nobi crticising Hindus. This is Hindu philosophy only, the greatest religion in the world.
Yes. We need such teachings to be inculcated in our शिक्षण. मनुष्य जन्म is for attainment of आध्यात्मिक ज्ञानं , वैराग्यं एवम् विवेकम्??? 🙏🕉️🌺
Parents should be teaching this to there kids
That secular defination in our Indian constitution is messed up, unfortunately children living on the Land of Spirituality don't have biography or autobiography and philosophy of such great personalities added on our education system. Indian Youth don't value these things, by the way hegemony of USA as soft power is working great.
Enlightenment is just the beginning of our Spiritual journey.
The world is evolving rapidly.
🙏❤️
Heartfelt thanks to entire team of Supreme Yogi
Great channel for all spiritual seekers
What a pleasent background music u always give..When ever i listen it..feel very lite nd near by God..May god bless me to be always and only with him.
I used to be at #3, my friend told me I was all over the place w/EVERYTHING I would talk about. It was tedious to control.
I gave up. I let go, advancing to #4. It was pleasant for a while, then #5. I'm learning still how to be more quiet to listen instead of yapping. I seem to fear nothing anymore. I would just like to meet some ppl/humans like me. I stand out like adore thumb, ppl do not see what I see. So I BCAME introverted. And I kinda like it.♡
Good for you Anna... I am trying too.
The very fact that you're able to gauge your mind itself is remarkable. One needs to step aside from the quagmire of the cunning mind to know its grip on our entire being. We can only watch, be aware and conscious of the mind. In silence there's evolution.
The same thing happened to me. It is so hard to find people like you when almost everyone nowadays are in the first stages still.
I trust the creator we will find someone like us or we will change the rest of humanity :)
You are the last person to actually be able to tell at what stage you are.
Wow!! I don't know what's up with me but I love reading books now, I want nobody but books of great philosophers ❤️
most unfortunately here in my Africa we are permanently stuck in stage ONE. Impulsive minded, follow traditions , don't question anything
Humble statement brother..
I feel you man. Believe me most of wise people must deal with it, not only in Africa. Only few places on Earth are much better but they don't feel blessed and think it is normal too and find other problems. Stay strong mate
EVERYONE who has not done any spiritual work (so 99.99%) are living in these stages. they live with a mind that raises as a fast car, constant worrying and thinking. it is up to the individual to get 'in control' of the mind. You happen to be watching this, so there is a deeper meaning with it. You should start medtiation and observation
I am African living in the Usa...bro Africa is not ready for meditation...
You wrote this comment and You are in Africa.. :) Trust me there is hope !
Na sriram na sabrupm chitanand rup shivo hum shiv hum
Close your eyes and feel nothing only observe your breath. One day you will lost track of time. And you will know true self
🙏🕉🧘♂️🕉🙏
Don't talk like a child.
If u have got it then u will not criticize other form of worship.
Implying u r borrowing others thoughts and vocabulary.
True seekers always avoid this temptation.
Jai Sri Ram
I like how d wind is blowing d curtains, N d man just sitting there looking at N d box which is conveying d message. Nice presentation.
May be the uploader is creative N has loads of time.
Bendito dios que anticipas el trazo de nuestros caminos con estas guias de maestros espirituales haciendo claro nuestro entendimiento y alentandonos a seguir buscando tu amor, te lo agradecemos infinitamente.
Beautiful video! I am bouncing between 3 and 4 but very happy to be mostly out of 1 now!
you will never be enlightened
Golden messages! These messages match very well with modern psychology! ( racing thoughts, hyperactivity,inattention, poor impulse control, emotional instability etcetc, mind matters 🙏
I'm a kinda a mixed state soul. Sometimes relatively enthusiastic and sometimes go into the sluggish state. I think I must have to go beyond them to attain the 4th and so on.
Samadhi is just the beginning... There are higher states of consciousness. Being able to connect to everything around us; as if the universe is your body is just the beginning. Then you start to be able to control or manipulate that which everyone thinks is outside our bodies but in reality is just an extension of it. This is when the special powers start to manifest.... They are not really special. We can all do it, if we choose to wake up or become enlighten..... Have a most amazing day with many blessings.
All the highest realized yogis and other holy men and women have said the same thing...There is no end to discovering the limits of one's own consciousness...
@@robertallen6710 Yes Yes so true...... I have many discoveries that I am so excited and blessed, to be able to share, soon. Science is on the cuff, of discovering the things enlighten people have been teaching, for thousands of years...... We truly live in exciting times. Have a great day...
Absolutely.
Enlightenment is just the beginning of our Spiritual journey, indeed.
🙏❤️
That's nice, but let us reach samadhi first before talking about the rest. It's all very theoretical and was never meant to be a mere intellectual exercise. Powers are irrelevant and anyone who takes up the spiritual path in pursuit of said powers is making a big mistake.
@@thecrimsondragon9744 Who says it is first and irrelevant to who? Irrelevant to those that can not do it. Very relevant to those, who do have the skills.... Good luck in your pursuits and have a wonderful day....
Namaste' BeYOUtiful Souls! ❤
@afsha majak nahi
I read the third state first as 'wikipedia' and it even made sense, 'sometimes active and sometimes dull' 😂😂
Ooooooooh 😂
Simple clear and crisp explanation
Type of food also plays a vital role in how early we are able to attain the 4th and 5th stages
Hats of of to this great Indian hindu culture called sanatan which created the discoveries which are still being initially disvovered.....
Abhishek Bajpai they didnt create them, they have maintained them so that we may have easier access to these perspectives in these times. The roots of this knowledge are extremely ancient and their roots are not in India. Respect to these great spiritual practitioners!

Fundamental truth..... every one should try this process at least once in life with devotion..... it can be only realized!!!!!
Environmental factors would play a huge role in cognitive ability. My favorite form consciousness is thoughtlessness
His very face alone inspires me to follow spiritual path.......
This is known as "Chitta bhumi" described in yoga philosophy by Patanjali rishi. Just an added info. Thanks to supreme yogi for such a beautiful post.
Truth is simple but ego and words complicate it. Focus/concentration or the 4th state of mind is required for doing all activities. eg From watching a movie to doing yoga in an isolated place for reaching the 5th state (Niruddha). The difference is just duration and disturbance.
I am English with an English Father & Maltese Mother but I have always had a strange feeling of "knowing" about India. I really like their Culture, manerisms etc.
I wonder if this is memories of a previous incarnation in India?
Awesome presentation! Please provide some more Rāja-yogic steps like Prānāyāma, Pratyāhāra, Dhāranā etc. from the works of Swami Abhedananda. Thanks a lot. Om Tat Sat! 🙏
One of the best channels in the world. No doubt. 👌
You are living in a collective story you continually keep rehearsing.
such a wonderful video. powerful words and image. Thank you so much for sharing.
Great explaination🙏☯️🕉🌊🇳🇪🇳🇪

Yeah even I noticed that...
I dont know what state he is in.... non of the 5 stats described in the video fits him...
Or is it the God level consciousness, the 5th state... ultimate aim towards stupidity!

"Wisdom restraints, nor suffers mind to wander where it would; From every evil calls it back, and guides in way of good." ( Meaning: Not to permit the mind to go where it lists, to keep it from evil, and to employ it in good, this is wisdom.) From "Thirukkural"( verse 422) by Thiruvalluvar, ancient Tamil saint. ☘🌿
@@_-AB-_ I am not munafiq. Prophet Muhummad tells us very clearly and also in Quran tells us very clearly that Allah had sent a lot of messengers to each nation using their own language to tell people the truth, the ancient everlasting truth, but most people do not listen and do not follow. I got to know Thiruvalluvar as recommended. I have been very busy, a lot of spiritual books and classics to read and to revise, but when I read the Thirukkural, I cannot bear not to treasure it. The wisdom of ancient sage is with weight. All the saints tell the same truth. Truth is from Allah only.
@@_-AB-_ Knowing Arabic terms in Islam cannot help anything in spirituality I gradually realize. So I stop learning Arabic terms and only experience my life now. Even knowledge is not helpful anymore. Someone says you go to heaven. Someone says you go to hell. I will not follow anyone now.
am so Happy to see you you are direct disciple of paramhansa bhagwan Sri Sri Ramkrishna and Maa shardadev I can't manage to raise my self beyond 3. Stages have been practising for so long krupa Karo ham par prabhu din dayal😘
Thank you for sharing.
Glorious!
Never mind in which state the mind is. Leave it alone. Rest in wholeness.
Rest!
What do you mean leave it alone? Going beyond the default state of mind can improve life, relationships, work, health....so much.
@@mreverybody1150 Have you heard about "non-doing" in Taoism?
@@LAURIjaz96 Some years ago I remember it being mentioned now yes.
Thank you.
Thank You 🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing &/or making this video...
Awesome. Thank you.
Thank you ❤️
This video was really very awesome.
Thank you brother
I AM...SO - HAM...answer for everything and for highest happiness. You need to feel that you are presented in others bodies of people and animals like ONE GOD. If you will look at others people eyes, don't forget, that you observe self through them. Here isn't separated ME. It's everything YOU. ❤
What others
Yes it is really the way of mind till you reach enlightenment!!!🙏🙏
There is no right side in this world. It's just ' Darkness and Deception ' - 'Truth and Light' .
The Enlightenment you seek won't come without having to experience darkness and some sacrifices.

Great video..Thank you for sharing
Thank you. Om Guru Om 🙏🙏🙏🧡🧡🧡🌹🌹🌹
The description of fourth and fifth kinds of mind are termed awareness release. They are useful but but not permanent states of mind. Being fabricated from intention they born and so must die too. Developing knowledge using these states of concentration to realise the unfrabricated, the awakened that is neither born nor dies is the highest happiness.
4th is very common & it's a parmanent state as well for many scholars & professionals & intellectuals & Artists & craftsman, it's called calm & cool head like cricketer MS Dhoni. Who practice meditation they r able to remain in that state of mind parmanently. I remain in that state when I play Chess frequently.
thank you, that was beautiful

Good video. Nice, relaxing music.
Swami Vivekananda puts these 5 states of mind in context in his commentary on the second Yoga Sutra of Patanjali:
Yogaschittavrittinirodhah.
Yoga is the cessation of the VRITTIS in the CHITTA.
The book is RAJA YOGA by Swami Vivekananda.

I love how niiicelyyy....and caaalmlyyy....this video progressed...
Patanjali Yoga Sutras are the encyclopedia of mind,there is not a single thing which he has missed out,he is the scientist of the mind who the world must celebrate.
Thank you 💙💚
True👍
Good quote swamiji, really worthfull, will follow the fourt and the fifth one,
Ty so much
I wish we had learned this in school.
Thank you for this knowledge. I believe transitioning from 4th state to 5th state there are more dimensions/levels in between to be in sync.
Pranam...
