159: How To Let Go Correctly - Shiva (Philosophy of Tantra)

How To Let Go - Shiva (Philosophy of Tantra). In this video we will be talking about how to let go correctly from the tantric philosophy of lord Shiva. In Hindu mythology, there is an idea that sometimes the universe becomes too full. Over time it gathers the weight of billions of human desires, habits, and egos. People cling to things that should have ended long ago, and old systems keep running long after they stop working. Slowly, everything becomes heavy and rigid—until nothing new can grow, because nothing old is allowed to disappear.When things reach that point, mythology says that Shiva begins the Tandava, his cosmic dance. This dance shakes the entire universe. Stars fall from the sky. Oceans rise and swallow the land. Mountains crumble. Cities vanish. Everything that once looked permanent breaks apart and returns to the dark, formless space from which it came.From the outside, it sounds like the end  of the world. Total destruction. But in the myth, it’s a reset. A clearing of space so that life can begin again.Hindu tradition explains the universe through three major forces, known as the Trimurti. First there is Brahma, the creator, who brings things into existence. Then there is Vishnu, the preserver, who keeps the world stable and running. And finally, there is Shiva, the one responsible for ending things. But here, destruction is not simply violence or chaos, it represents the natural process through which things dissolve when their time is over. You see this pattern everywhere in life. A song ends in silence. A breath is followed by an exhale. In the same way, every phase of life has to end before another one can begin. Think about what would happen if nothing ever finished. If flowers never wilted, fruit could never grow. If childhood never ended, adulthood could never begin. Endings make space for change. Still, letting go is one of the hardest things we have to do.  Shiva shares the philosophy of Tantra with his wife Parvati.  The word "Tantra" literally means "tool" or "technique", teaching practical ways to understand life, offering methods that help people let go of the past and reconnect with the natural flow of existence. In this video we will be talking about how to let go and move on from the philosophy of Tantra. So here are 5 radical ways to let go from the tantric philosophy of lord Shiva. 01. Neti Neti02. The Myth of Sati03. Identify with the Bhasma04. Stay in the Gap05. Release the "I-Maker"I hope you enjoyed watching these he seven ways of Tantric philosophy to help you let go from the philosophy of Lord Shiva.

Become Who You Are Afraid To Be - Lord Shiva (Philosophy Of Tantra). In this podcast, we will be talking about how to become who you are afraid to be from the tantric philosophy of Lord Shiva.In Indian philosophy, three main forces, three gods known as the Trimurti are said to maintain the universe: Brahma the Creator, Vishnu the Preserver, and Shiva the Destroyer.While Brahma and Vishnu are connected to the structure of the world, Shiva is often linked to inner change. He represents the destruction of ego, false beliefs, and mental limits that keep a person stuck. Often called the first yogi, he was the first to master the human system and transcend the limitations of the mind, thus making him the ultimate archetype of human potential.While most religions focus on following rules to reach a "heaven" later, Tantra is a philosophy for the here and now. The word "Tantra" literally means "tool" or "technique." It is a collection of radical methods, supposedly handed down directly from Shiva to his wife Parvati, designed to shatter the ego and expand consciousness.Here are the seven ways of Tantric philosophy to help you destroy your limitations and finally become the person you are currently afraid to be. 01. Break the Pashu 02. Find Your Cremation Ground 03. Process the Poison 04. Dissolve the Vikalpa 05. Tame the Monster 06. The Union of Totality 07. The Great Recognition I hope you enjoyed listening to these seven ways of Tantric philosophy to help you destroy your limitations and finally become the person you are currently afraid to be from the philosophy of Lord Shiva.

He is a god-tier monkey king and a warrior who can leap across the sky and shift into 72 different forms.But unlike other mythic figures, Wukong began his journey as a mortal slave to his own impulses.

We have the gifts, but this monkey keeps us trapped in a cycle of aimless impulse and keeps us stuck or invisible despite our potential. The problem is that we’re fighting the world when we should be mastering that monkey. So here are ways to Master Your Unruly Monkey Mind through the taoist philosophy of “Sun Wukong."01. The Discovery of Mortality02. The Arrogance of Skill03. The Great Humbling04. The Diet of Molten Copper 05. The Death of the Great Sage 06. The Discipline of Mission07. The Victorious Fighting Buddha I hope you enjoyed listening to these ways to Master Your Unruly Monkey Mind through the taoist philosophy of “Sun Wukong."
