Take God in your heart
The path to the divine requires purity and correct spiritual lineage. Modern science is great but does not reach the ultimate truth. A true guru from an authentic lineage provides the passport for the spiritual journey, like a valid government document. Śiva, the formless source, manifested creation from the elements. Śiva and Śakti are the primordial unity, reflected as male and female in all existence, from humans to plants. This understanding leads to the Supreme Self. The current age is dominated by negativity and separation. To reach God, one must first purify the inner self. Refrain from negative thoughts and actions toward others. Purify the five elements within through breath and conduct. Physical and mental harm creates pain; avoiding it aligns one with the divine.
"Those who receive the blessings of the gurus—but the guru is that guru which has a paramparā, meaning from generation to generation—then they are going on the right way."
"If we can purify ourselves now, for example, ask yourself, 'Have you done anything negative towards others?'"
