Namaskaram. Excellent video. I can see how you are struggling to convey your experiences of the program without describing exactly what happened. I completed the BSP with Sadhguru in 2018 at iii., one year after completing Shambhavi initiation. There are no words that are adequate to describe the power of the experience. Even more than two years later I sometimes come to tears when I spontaneously recall some aspect of the program. It is truly life changing. I wish everyone could experience this, even for just a moment.
I was in the ashram during the same time for IE first then some volunteering. I still remember the sounds coming from the spandha all from the female dorm. Maybe one day it will happen to me also. 🙏🏻
Namaskaram, Happy to hear that you too were in the Ashram during that time. I am sure it will be a great experience for you. Do let me know your experience of the program whenever you go through it.
Please keep updating in future if you happen to visit again. And please do it for atleast me and don't stop just because u don't have enough subscribers.
Namaskaram, Humbled. Not doing it for subscribers Anna, just want to take Sadhguru to as many people as possible. Will keep doing it. Thank you for your support. Keep supporting. 🙏
🙏thank you for your excellent video. Can you tell me what is the prerequisites for Bhava Spandana program? What all is needed to be done first. I have done so far inner engeering and shambavi and I want to progress to the next level. What do you suggest I do next, thank you
Namaskaram, Once you have done Inner Engineering with Shambhavi Mahamudra, you are eligible for the Bhava Spandana program. Please consider doing the program if you feel it from within.
Hey Bharat. I have 2 questions that I really hope you could answer. Before that, I have to say that your videos are absolutely beautiful. I've never seen anyone describing it as deep and clear as you, with so much expression. A huge thank you for that. Now, my questions. 1st question: Have you tried isha kriya. If you have, would you mind sharing a few words about your experience on that? 2nd question: Inner Engineering incorporates Shambhavi practices. So in order for me to do that, should I be flexible enough to sit cross legged comfortably before I start IE? Because I do not feel comfortable sitting crossed legges. This means I can only start IE once I'm able to sit cross legged comfortably right?
Namaskaram Vidhram ji, Thank you for your kind words, I really feel happy to know that you like my videos. Answer to Q1: I have tried doing regular Isha Kriya, 6 months before I got initiated into Shambhavi. Honestly, for couple of months, there was no significant change or experience I had, but still I stuck to that practice. Once I realised that for anything to work the only thing which is needed is my commitment and involvement, I just kept doing it. And that started to show results after 5th month, hence did the IE. (Sorry, Couldn't share the inner experiences) Answer to Q2: You just have to sit crossed legged for 21 minutes during the Shambhavi Mahamudra. I can understand that you feel uncomfortable sitting crossed legged, but with time it will happen. But don't postpone Shambhavi Mahamudra because of your sitting problem. Yes you can surely start working towards sitting crossed legged from now, keeping 30minutes as a Target. But once you see a IE happening, forget everything and just go for it. I know many people who were not comfortable sitting crossed legged, but slowly got comfortable. Hope that this helps you. Pranam. 🙏
I love your videos and have found them to be inspiring and motivating. They helped me to take initiative to take all the hatha yoga classes Isha has to offer! One question, do you know any organizations or groups that help aid younger people to attend these programs? I am currently in college and really want to participate in Shoonya but financially I have been unable to each time it's presented. Thank you for any suggestions, keep it up!
Namaskaram, It gives me joy to know that my videos were helpful for you to move towards Yoga and Spirituality. About the financial aspect, I myself had financial issues when I did my Inner Engineering, Surya Kriya and Yogasanas. Here is what I did at that time: I sent e-mail to the local Isha Centre about my financial situation. The local centers were generous enough to give me 50% student discount on the program. You can try this. Apart from this I am unaware about organizations which provide such support.
Namaskaram.. Is it mandatory to complete Bhavaspandana in order to go for soonya meditation ? I am practicing Shambhavi for year and now want to do Soonya.
Namaskaram, You can surely go for the Shoonya program before going through Bhava Spandana. Shoonya will be a great next step in your Sadhana. It will surely demand 1.5 hours everyday, but that is totally worth it.
Namaskaram Anna 🙏🌼🌻 Can you please tell me Before BSP AND SHOONYA INTENSIVE WHICH HATHA YOGA PROGRAM I DO FOR HELPFUL FOR ADVANCED PROGRAM ( SHAMBHAVI MAHAMUDRA I DO ABOUT 6 MONTHS ) AND THANK YOU SHARING YOUR EXPERIENCE NAMASKARAM 🙏🍁
Namaskaram, Officially there is no need for any Hatha Yoga program to go through BSP or Shoonya, but if you want to make you physical body and your mind more stable and vibrant, it would be good to have one of the Hatha Yoga program done. According to my understanding, you should go through BSP, wheather you have done Hatha Yoga program or not. But for Shoonya, support of a Hatha Yoga practice might help. Please let me know, if you have any further questions. 🙏
Namaskaram Anna 🙏🏵️ Which particular Hatha Yoga is better for SHOONYA INTENSIVE ( ANGAMARDANA ) is better or another Yogasanas, SURYA KRIYA In your experience which HATHA YOGA Better to do before SHOONYA INTENSIVE Namaskaram 🙏🌼🌻
Namaskaram, I have not been through Angamardana, but I have done the Surya Kriya and the Yogasanas. I don't find myself knowledgeable enough on this topic to suggest you. Only an Ishanga can guide you on this. But you can go with the Surya Kriya first and after that the Yogasanas. It will surely help.
Inspired Live anna please do angamardhana i am doing it since 1.5 years it will give you a very stable body for sitting in vajrasana during shakti chalana. Better not to do surya kriya and asanas first as they both are very subtle i will suggest do angamardhana and prepare your body and mind for other hatha yoga as well as advance practises also u have to maitain a good diet🙏🏻
The trampoline metaphor u used to describe BSP is called Satori in Zen. Eckhart Tolle spoke about this in The Power of Now book. Satori is a short glimpse of no-mind state and the ecstasy that follows. Am I correct?
Namaskaram, The state of Bhava Spandana is very different than the common perceptions of Meditation-Dhyan-Emptiness. It is something which only can be experienced. No words can fill that gap, so I won't even try.
@@EthosofBharat Agree. But when U & me are interacting, we are communicating using thoughts, neither U nor me are meditating, nor in a BSP program. I see that the purpose of this communication, either ur videos, or these exchange of msgs in yt comments section, is to have an intellectual communication. I know ur interest is in pushing as many people as u can towards making 100% use of the benefits SG has been providing, but that can happen at some point of time in future.

Namaskaram, When someone goes through a Program in Isha, they are requested to not speak about it in open. There are many reasons for doing that. I cannot override what I have been told and trusted with. So, I am very conscious when I don't speak about somethings in detail. It is deliberately done that way and it has a though behind it.
Is bsp is only done in the Isha yoga centre Coimbatore or any other city India? I'm from Kolkata. I have done my inner engineering program online can I eligible for it? How much fees needed for this?
Namaskaram, The Bhava Spandana, Shoonya and Samyama are only conducted at the Isha Yoga Center in India and Institute of Inner Sciences in USA. Inner Engineering Online is the first half of the Inner Engineering, one still needs to do the Inner Engineering Total program in which one gets initiated into Shambhavi Mahamudra practice. After that one can apply for the BSP or Shoonya program.
Bhai, I have only one question and hope you can answer. Is BSP program just like Shambhavi maha Mudra where you do some yogic practices and listen to lectures from teacher? If it has only yogic practices, I don’t think I have the time to do it anytime soon. But if it is a lot to do with feelings etc, I am up for it. Thank you in advance
Namaskaram, BSP is an experiential program. No new practice will be taught to you. You just have to go to the program as open as possible, if you go like that, what needs to happen will happen.
Namaskaram, Inner Engineering is a program with two segments, one is the Inner Engineering Online and other is Inner Engineering Competition Online. Online one has 7 sessions which have to be seen at your convenient time which would cover many aspects of our Body, Mind, Emotions and Energies. Completion Online comprises of your initiation into Shambhavi Mahamudra practice, which is a powerful Yogic Kriya which has innumerable benifits. Both of these programs can be done Online.

Namaskaram anna. I need to ask one question. I want to learn all isha practice like from BSP to Samyama, already I did my IE. I came to know about sadhanapada, so my question is If I go for sadhanapada program, will they teach all these practices?
Namaskaram, Sadhanapada is a 7 month long program where one goes and stays at the Isha Yoga Center and is put through Sadhana and Volunteering. During the Sadhanapada, one will get opportunities to get initiated into all programs. Exception can be the Samyama program, as it is conducted once in one or two years.

Namaskaram, I am caught up with many things currently hence I am not sure when I will be able to make a video in Hindi, you can give me your email address and I can guide you through that. Or you can email me your questions on ethosofbharat@gmail.com I will be happy to help.
Namaskaram, According to my knowledge there is no Bhava Spandana program in Hindi. But on request Isha gives the participants translators which can be used during the programs, which can guide you in Hindi about everything happening in the class. I am not very sure about this, for proper guidance and information, I request you to contact the Isha Foudation, Coimbatore. Isha Yoga Center, Velliangiri Foothills, Ishana Vihar Post, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu 641114 PH +91 8300083111 Email info@ishafoundation.org
I see a lot of people talking about hatha yoga. Due to some back issues, i cannot squat or sit in vajrasana position. Does it block me from doing the courses that are needed to go until last course( samyama). Just done with inner engineering and want to do more. What is the order of these courses?
Namaskaram, No physical ailment will stop you from doing most Yoga. I would suggest you to go through the Isha Hatha Programs, you'll get the required attention and changes if needed. Hatha Yoga Teachers are the best people to guide you on this, I'll suggest you to contact the nearest teacher. For Samyama, you need to do Surya Kriya and Yogasanas in the format of Hatha Yoga.
Namaskarm, When we talk of Chakras or Energy Centers, we are talking about a dimension which is beyond the Physical and also beyond our experience. Hence to talk about something which is still outside of our experience is not right when one wants to turn Inward. Hence, I would never suggest anyone to think in the terms of Chakras, Kundalini, Powers, etc. when one wants to walk on the path of Spirituality. About the sequence of Programs, here is the sequence in which I did them, you can follow that. - Inner Engineering Total - Surya Kriya - Yogasanas - Bhava Spandana - Shoonya - Samyama
Namaskaram, The Bhava Spandana and Shoonya program happen mostly at the Isha Yoga Center, in India, which includes our stay and food. The program costs around ₹6k. It may vary due to many reasons. More details can be found on the Isha website.
Namaskaram, I am really sorry but we were asked not to talk in detail about the Samyama Practices to anyone. But I can let you know, that every Practice in which one gets initiated, he is asked to practice it always. Even if you get initiated into Samyama or Shoonya, still every previous practice is to be done regularly. Every program and practice is equally important.
Namaskaram, It is better to not talk about anything which is part of the program. Just do whatever you understand from the guidelines, everything else will follow. 🙏
@@EthosofBharat 🙏 Namaskaram thanks Anna ,just wanted to know about it, I don't know about it . No problem the moment BSP started I will enroll myself for the program.
@@EthosofBharat I have initiated in Shambhavi Mahamudra and I also doing Surya Kriya every day.And I am also part of 7% Ishanga and by 17th of Oct21 Sadhguru will initiate us for Nanmai Uruvam. When it comes to experience then most of the time I am joyful blissful and sometimes I feel missing these things but at the same time when I memories that "Every moment is inevitable " then again I became joyful. But after doing the practice something happens within my body which I can't explain in words. One experience I can share with you that when I got initiated/consecrated to Shambhavi Mahamudra then I feel some energy enters in my body with huge current, it was really a wonderful experience which I never forget in my lifetime. Thanks to my Sadhguru I am really blessed that I born when you are here to dispel my darkness 🙏 ✨
Namaskaram, Once you are initiated into the Shambhavi Mahamudra, you are eligible to do Bhava Spandana. But it is in your interest to be regular with your practices before going for Advance Programs. More you are evolved in your Sadhana, more you can experience in the Advanced Programs.
Namaskaram 🙏 I've got initiated into Shambhavi Mahamudra (online) (3000 rupees), and I'm planning to learn Yogasana next (costing me 4000 in Dehradun). . Could you please tell me the cost of BSP & Shoonya both? . If I'm not wrong Shambhavi, Yogasanas, BSP, and Shoonya are the only prerequisites of Samyama and Samyama is free of cost, right anna?
Namaskaram, BSP and Shoonya may cost you around 5k each with food and stay at the Ashram. The price may vary. Samyama will most probably be free of cost. But there are no price details available for the upcoming Samyama program yet, so cannot confirm this. You are right about the prerequisites.
Namaskaram, Cost of the Bhava Spandana Program is around 4-6 thousand rupees. This includes food and accommodation in the Ashram. This prices may vary due to the pandemic and other changes.
Namaskaram, Bhava Spandana is an experiential program. No new practices will be taught. But it surely will give one a different perspective towards life and the world.
Namaskaram, I know this will sound very simple, but I'll suggest you to be the way you are currently. Do not try to create a specific mindset before the program begins, just do the homework which is given to you with full involvement. Rest, everything will ne taken care during the program. They'll tell you what needs to be done. Go totally blank and open.
Namaskaram, Bhava Spandana and Shoonya are Advanced Programs. Their cost include the food and accommodation at the Isha Yoga Center for 4 days. The cost will be around 4-5 thousand rupees. Price can vary according to the time, language and situations.
But by presenting that interpretation Sadhguru has tried to belittle Ramakrishna Paramhansa. Lakhs of peaple are doing bhava spandana but still nobody became Ramakrishna. 😀
Namaskaram, You are correct, thousands of people have done Bhava Spandana program, but none have become Ramkrishna. As I said in the video, this program is an experiential program. It just gives you a glimpse of what is beyond the wall. You are allowed to experience the state of Bhava Spandana for a brief amount of time, after the program you come back to your previous state. This program is just to make people understand that there is something bigger than their job, house, family, money. Once they see that, they will strive to touch the state of Bhava Spandana themselves which stays forever, rather than going away in just 3 Days. Ramkrishna touched the state of Bhava Spandana in a way that he can stay there forever, but in the program the participants are opened to immense energy which makes them feel that state for few moments. I hope this clarifies your doubt. Pranam.
@@EthosofBharat thanks for good response. 👍 But this state of bhava spandana is some kind of mystical experience or can be termed as spiritual liberation ? Looking forward for ur reply.
Namaskaram, Bhava Spandana is a peep beyond the wall, if one works enough to cross the wall fully, that is it, you are through. Bhava Spandana Program is a way to experience a dimension which can take you towards the ultimate.
While this is excellent, the ramkrishna story is not true ! There is no such evidence. Rankrishna did not do any such sadhna ! He used to be in samadhi state since age of 12. All he did was all the tantras in 3 months ! He was in the state of Bhab Samadhi all the time ! He never did any sadhna ! While I love sadhguru so much but i am sometimes quite sad that he comes up witj stories that are absolutely not true. I heard him saying certain things about swami vivekananda , those do not have any account anywhere... however, i will definitely talk to Ramkrishna mission about it. 😇
Namaskaram, I would like to add one thing here. Being in Samadhi is also a Sadhana. Samadhi states are used to attain to even higher peaks of experience and knowing. Ramkrishna was a Devotee throughout his life, and hence the years of his devotion can be counted as his Sadhana period. Even Sadhguru does some Sadhana everyday, Sadhana is not just to attain to some peak, it is also to retain some capabilities. About Ramkrishna experiencing Bhava Spandana, we need to understand, that the difference here is that, Ram Krishna after 12 years of his spiritual life came to a position where he was in Bhava Spandana state throughout/always. The thing with Bhava Spandana Program in Isha is that, you just touch that dimension and come back. Your experience is due to Sadhguru and the energies of the Hall, so once you go out of Isha, experience of Bhava Spandana will also go. But you get a glimpse of it. So, be it Ramkrishna or Patanjali or Sadhguru, all of them did some Sadhana even after they attained. Did Ramkrishna did some specific Sadhana for Bhava Spandana? No. Bhava Spandana is a state, one can reach to it through many ways. He probably reached there through his Devotion towards Kali, you might reach at it through Kriya Yoga, I might touch it in the BSP program. Hope I made the point clear. 🙏😊
Namaskaram. Excellent video. I can see how you are struggling to convey your experiences of the program without describing exactly what happened. I completed the BSP with Sadhguru in 2018 at iii., one year after completing Shambhavi initiation. There are no words that are adequate to describe the power of the experience. Even more than two years later I sometimes come to tears when I spontaneously recall some aspect of the program. It is truly life changing.

During the Sadhanapada, one will get opportunities to get initiated into all programs.
Exception can be the Samyama program, as it is conducted once in one or two years.

Namaskaram Anna, Is there a program happening in *Hindi* ?
Namaskaram,
According to my knowledge there is no Bhava Spandana program in Hindi. But on request Isha gives the participants translators which can be used during the programs, which can guide you in Hindi about everything happening in the class.
I am not very sure about this, for proper guidance and information, I request you to contact the Isha Foudation, Coimbatore.

When bhava spandana is conducted in Isha yoga centre in India?
Namaskaram,
You can check the upcoming programs through the below link:
www.ishayoga.org/Schedule/Yoga-Programs
I see a lot of people talking about hatha yoga. Due to some back issues, i cannot squat or sit in vajrasana position. Does it block me from doing the courses that are needed to go until last course( samyama). Just done with inner engineering and want to do more. What is the order of these courses?
Namaskaram,
No physical ailment will stop you from doing most Yoga. I would suggest you to go through the Isha Hatha Programs, you'll get the required attention and changes if needed. Hatha Yoga Teachers are the best people to guide you on this, I'll suggest you to contact the nearest teacher.
For Samyama, you need to do Surya Kriya and Yogasanas in the format of Hatha Yoga.
@@EthosofBharat thank you for your reply.
How can I join Isha hatha yoga program? I live in US.
Can we get all chakras activated by this program ...please tell in sequence one after other which program to be done ?
Namaskarm,
When we talk of Chakras or Energy Centers, we are talking about a dimension which is beyond the Physical and also beyond our experience. Hence to talk about something which is still outside of our experience is not right when one wants to turn Inward.
Hence, I would never suggest anyone to think in the terms of Chakras, Kundalini, Powers, etc. when one wants to walk on the path of Spirituality.
About the sequence of Programs, here is the sequence in which I did them, you can follow that.
- Inner Engineering Total
- Surya Kriya
- Yogasanas
- Bhava Spandana
- Shoonya
- Samyama
people in isha don't even know what chakras are
Does Sadhguru present in person in bsp ?
Namaskaram,
No, Sadhguru is not physically present during the BSP programs.
Wat is name of the background music
Sound of Isha : Yoga Padhi (Desh / Bloom)
Namaskar Anna.
What is the cost of this programs Anna ?
Namaskaram,
The Bhava Spandana and Shoonya program happen mostly at the Isha Yoga Center, in India, which includes our stay and food.
The program costs around ₹6k. It may vary due to many reasons.
More details can be found on the Isha website.
Are there any guidlines about practices post samyama? Can we skip all the practices and do only shambhavi and samyama?
Namaskaram,
I am really sorry but we were asked not to talk in detail about the Samyama Practices to anyone. But I can let you know, that every Practice in which one gets initiated, he is asked to practice it always. Even if you get initiated into Samyama or Shoonya, still every previous practice is to be done regularly. Every program and practice is equally important.
@@EthosofBharat ok.
I don't think we can do Samyama without doing BSp
Yes we cant
👌👌👌👌👌
Hi Namaskaram
Before going for BSP one need to write something, what I have to write ✍ and whatever I write I need to share to Isha ??
Namaskaram,
It is better to not talk about anything which is part of the program.
Just do whatever you understand from the guidelines, everything else will follow.
🙏
@@EthosofBharat
🙏 Namaskaram thanks Anna ,just wanted to know about it, I don't know about it . No problem the moment BSP started I will enroll myself for the program.
Namaskaram,
Do let me know how was your experience after you go through the program.
@@EthosofBharat I have initiated in Shambhavi Mahamudra and I also doing Surya Kriya every day.And I am also part of 7% Ishanga and by 17th of Oct21 Sadhguru will initiate us for Nanmai Uruvam.
When it comes to experience then most of the time I am joyful blissful and sometimes I feel missing these things but at the same time when I memories that "Every moment is inevitable " then again I became joyful. But after doing the practice something happens within my body which I can't explain in words.
One experience I can share with you that when I got initiated/consecrated to Shambhavi Mahamudra then I feel some energy enters in my body with huge current, it was really a wonderful experience which I never forget in my lifetime. Thanks to my Sadhguru I am really blessed that I born when you are here to dispel my darkness 🙏 ✨
@@yogeshtripathi3783 i too had the same electrifying experience anna
Namaskaram, i have not completed my shambavi mandala...can i apply for bsp
Namaskaram,
Once you are initiated into the Shambhavi Mahamudra, you are eligible to do Bhava Spandana.
But it is in your interest to be regular with your practices before going for Advance Programs. More you are evolved in your Sadhana, more you can experience in the Advanced Programs.
@@EthosofBharat thank you for ur information anna
Namaskaram 🙏 I've got initiated into Shambhavi Mahamudra (online) (3000 rupees), and I'm planning to learn Yogasana next (costing me 4000 in Dehradun).
.
Could you please tell me the cost of BSP & Shoonya both?
.
If I'm not wrong Shambhavi, Yogasanas, BSP, and Shoonya are the only prerequisites of Samyama and Samyama is free of cost, right anna?
Namaskaram,
BSP and Shoonya may cost you around 5k each with food and stay at the Ashram. The price may vary.
Samyama will most probably be free of cost. But there are no price details available for the upcoming Samyama program yet, so cannot confirm this.
You are right about the prerequisites.
🦉🤓🙏🙌✨
what is the cost?
Namaskaram,
Cost of the Bhava Spandana Program is around 4-6 thousand rupees. This includes food and accommodation in the Ashram.
This prices may vary due to the pandemic and other changes.
Is bsp is daily doing practice?
Plz reply...☺️
Namaskaram,
Bhava Spandana is an experiential program. No new practices will be taught. But it surely will give one a different perspective towards life and the world.
What kinda mindset is suggested before attending BSP?
Namaskaram,
I know this will sound very simple, but I'll suggest you to be the way you are currently. Do not try to create a specific mindset before the program begins, just do the homework which is given to you with full involvement.
Rest, everything will ne taken care during the program. They'll tell you what needs to be done.
Go totally blank and open.
@@EthosofBharat Thank you 🙏🏼
What is cource fee
Namaskaram,
Bhava Spandana and Shoonya are Advanced Programs. Their cost include the food and accommodation at the Isha Yoga Center for 4 days.
The cost will be around 4-5 thousand rupees. Price can vary according to the time, language and situations.
Endocanabinoids rush
But by presenting that interpretation Sadhguru has tried to belittle Ramakrishna Paramhansa. Lakhs of peaple are doing bhava spandana but still nobody became Ramakrishna. 😀
Namaskaram,
You are correct, thousands of people have done Bhava Spandana program, but none have become Ramkrishna.
As I said in the video, this program is an experiential program. It just gives you a glimpse of what is beyond the wall. You are allowed to experience the state of Bhava Spandana for a brief amount of time, after the program you come back to your previous state.
This program is just to make people understand that there is something bigger than their job, house, family, money. Once they see that, they will strive to touch the state of Bhava Spandana themselves which stays forever, rather than going away in just 3 Days.
Ramkrishna touched the state of Bhava Spandana in a way that he can stay there forever, but in the program the participants are opened to immense energy which makes them feel that state for few moments.
I hope this clarifies your doubt.
Pranam.
@@EthosofBharat thanks for good response. 👍
But this state of bhava spandana is some kind of mystical experience or can be termed as spiritual liberation ?
Looking forward for ur reply.
Namaskaram,
Bhava Spandana is a peep beyond the wall, if one works enough to cross the wall fully, that is it, you are through.
Bhava Spandana Program is a way to experience a dimension which can take you towards the ultimate.
While this is excellent, the ramkrishna story is not true ! There is no such evidence. Rankrishna did not do any such sadhna ! He used to be in samadhi state since age of 12. All he did was all the tantras in 3 months ! He was in the state of Bhab Samadhi all the time ! He never did any sadhna ! While I love sadhguru so much but i am sometimes quite sad that he comes up witj stories that are absolutely not true.
I heard him saying certain things about swami vivekananda , those do not have any account anywhere... however, i will definitely talk to Ramkrishna mission about it.
😇
Namaskaram,
I would like to add one thing here. Being in Samadhi is also a Sadhana. Samadhi states are used to attain to even higher peaks of experience and knowing. Ramkrishna was a Devotee throughout his life, and hence the years of his devotion can be counted as his Sadhana period. Even Sadhguru does some Sadhana everyday, Sadhana is not just to attain to some peak, it is also to retain some capabilities.
About Ramkrishna experiencing Bhava Spandana, we need to understand, that the difference here is that, Ram Krishna after 12 years of his spiritual life came to a position where he was in Bhava Spandana state throughout/always.
The thing with Bhava Spandana Program in Isha is that, you just touch that dimension and come back. Your experience is due to Sadhguru and the energies of the Hall, so once you go out of Isha, experience of Bhava Spandana will also go. But you get a glimpse of it.
So, be it Ramkrishna or Patanjali or Sadhguru, all of them did some Sadhana even after they attained.
Did Ramkrishna did some specific Sadhana for Bhava Spandana? No.
Bhava Spandana is a state, one can reach to it through many ways. He probably reached there through his Devotion towards Kali, you might reach at it through Kriya Yoga, I might touch it in the BSP program.
Hope I made the point clear. 🙏😊
Sadhguru and his followers love to belittle spiritual giants like ramakrishna, ramana and others to sell courses.
What is the cost?
