The Soul and Yoga Powers

This fourth episode of Metaphysics of the Real picks up the thread from where we left off with Advaita Vedanta—Question of the Real. The listener that has assimilated the previous episode on Reincarnation, Talismans and Familiar Spirits will be well prepared. The initiatic Journey of the Soul is to get initiated and realise she is infinitely greater than tanything she has previously supposed. The soul fears death greatly because she is identified with body and mind and the body at least will surely die and become nothing but a pile of ashes. The question is, what is it that dies? It is certainly not Atma, which is deathless, immutable. The second part of this episode examines two of the Supernormal Powers of the yogin, from Metamorphosis—Hermetic Science and Yoga Power: How to Read Minds and How to be Invisible.

Part One: What is Death to the Soul?

Part Two: Yoga and Yoga Powers. How to read minds and how to be invisible
