The question asked was-If Om Swami could shed some light on what he had said in a blog post where he mentioned that the law of attraction and the law of karma go hand in hand and people doing good can face adversities and sometimes people doing bad things can have good things happening to them in life.

Om Swami says that it is difficult to say things like this person is good or that person is bad as it’s always from an individual’s perspective on what they feel is good or bad, right or wrong. It is difficult to say if something is really wrong and therefore, it’s a futile exercise to classify people in this way. He says, most people can be so blinded by their ego that they cannot see their own mistakes and wrongdoings.
Om Swami says that for the law of attraction to work, one should concentrate on only one thing at a time. It will work for a person who is ready in all other aspects by being prepared. If a person just dreams about something without putting any effort then there will be no manifestation. When a person with a complete one-pointed focus determinedly works day and night towards their dream without accepting defeat, then the universe at some point materializes it in their world.

R.E.S.T. in Awareness with Rashid Hughes

The question asked here was-Though intellectually we may know that the same divine lives in everybody, still we feel a difference. How can one realize that we are all the same and feel a sense of oneness even in the face of conflict? Does it require cleansing, does it take time, or is it a process of evolution? 

Om Swami says that the only to feel that way is to practice compassion and to work continuously on oneself. If one can be thoughtful not to hurt others with their unkind words then one has made a remarkable progress he says. Whenever one feels that all others are not the same then that is the time to remind oneself of their own values. Om Swami says that as one evolves more and more they will have less problems with the world around them. If a person has constant issues with the world around them then it’s a reflection of their own consciousness. The more entangled a person is in one’s ego the more they will have problems with the people around them. If one sticks to the principle of divinity then one will encounter only divinity says Om Swami.

Feeling A Sense Of Oneness In The Face Of Conflict - Om Swami [English]

Two questions have been answered by Om Swami in this discourse.
The first question asked was- Ma Janaki has been given different versions in different languages and in scriptures like Ram charit Manas and in some other scriptures too. What is the real truth about the birth of Goddess Sita?
Om Swami says that Ma Janaki was king Janak’s daughter. He further says that there are two ways of seeing things. Either we believe that the scriptures are true or we think that it is fictional. In both Ramayana and Mahabharata the person who played an important role was found in a box. In Ramayana Janaki Ma was found in a box while king Janak was tilling the land. In Mahabharata Karna was floated away by his mother in a box. Without both of them the battle that took place may not have happened he says. The Ramayana and the Mahabharata were written in metre form so that memorising was easy. But still passing it on in the oral form could have resulted in minor errors. So it is difficult to say if Ma Janaki was found in a box in the ground, but nevertheless Ma Janaki was none other than the universal mother he says.
Om Swami says that for him everyone who was connected to Shri Ram in any way was only shri Ram - the people who were killed by him and those who were with him. All of them are worthy of worship and this is the sentiment that gives him great happiness.
The second question asked was- If Om Swami could shed some light on the term biological father Vs spiritual father.
Om Swami says that just like a biological father will want their children to do well and do good, similarly a spiritual father wishes the same. Though the sentiments are the same, it’s a different kind of relationship. The difference is that a spiritual father takes on a disciple’s karma by seeing if it can be distributed over lifetimes or can be taken care of at one go so that the person attains liberation. This right to take on the karma has been given by the lineage, the rishis, and our scriptures says Om Swami.

JOY - A Window Into Sai Maa's Work

Om Swami is a Himalayan monk, adept in meditation. At the peak of his meditative practice, he was meditating for 22 hours a day. He has spent 15,000+ hours meditating & has experienced our sublime consciousness in ways that defy any scientific understanding.

Researchers from IIT in India have studied the remarkable effects of his intense practice and published the results in a 2019 research paper https://bit.ly/3axrzdv 

After coming back from Himalayas, Swami wanted to help sincere seekers in search of enlightenment. Gradually he realized that people wanted his help for various ‘how to’ in life (joy, relationship, anger, work, self-discipline, stress, etc). Through his talks, seminars, books, and videos – his purpose remains the same – to help people. 

Whether you are practicing meditation, mindfulness, or simply looking for help with self-discipline – this channel can help. Think of it as a series of self-help videos and don’t forget to
