Spiritual Teachings With Shunyamurti

The War Between the Unreal and the Real

We gather for our ritual celebration of Maha Shiva Ratri, the most holy day and symbolic moment of the kalpa. It is the night when the grace of the highest potentiality of consciousness is available to receive if one wants it with all one's heart, mind, and will. Shunyamurti emphasizes the importance of the symbol of the dancing Nataraj and The Forty Verses on Reality by Sri Ramana Maharshi. Though the ego is not willing to surrender its identification with a fictional character, the soul yearns for union with the ultimate Truth, Tat Tvam Asi. Whether one likes it or not, ultimately Thou Art That. If only we use the power of Imagination to know there is no will separate from Shiva to surrender, that is our saving grace.

You Are The Trickster Who Has Tricked Yourself

The Supreme Trickster turns the One into the Many, then delivers the ultimate treat: returning all to Zero. When your mind has been completely emptied of thought and desire, you will be filled with the Uncreated Light and the Divine Nectar of eternal ecstasy. This is the gift of grace signified by Maha Shiva Ratri.

The Epstein Event: What It Reveals About Reality

Our souls must understand what the revelation of being ruled by demonic forces is intended by God to teach us. We must not accept the normalization of evil, but neither should we perceive it as outside our own consciousness. The political theater surrounding the scandal of the Epstein files should not obscure the divine imperative with which we are faced as beings dedicated to the service of Supreme Truth, Goodness, and Love.

Spiritual Implications of a World in Crisis

In this timely teaching, Shunyamurti speaks directly to the escalating global tensions unfolding across nature, geopolitics, and the collective psyche. As environmental upheaval, military confrontation, and systemic instability converge, he frames this moment as a true breakpoint—both for the world and for individual consciousness.

He explains why the ego is reaching its breaking point, why yogis must now move into hyper-drive, and how this convergence marks a decisive moment in the greater theodrama of history. Beyond the visible events lies a deeper, tripartite reality—the sensory, the morphogenic, and the Real—where liberation becomes possible for those willing to undergo ego death and awaken beyond fear.

Why Your Pain Is Actually a Blessing

For the ego, as Bob Dylan sang, everything is broken at every fractal level. We are here to heal what is broken by releasing seemingly inescapable patterns of suffering that have become frozen in time. Because the ego is only the lowest level of a four-tiered consciousness that has become short-circuited, it is possible to heal. Shunya offers an empirical experiment to shift one's paradigm to be free, to see within one's own consciousness the ego’s unreality, and to keep the soul awakened by not entertaining egoic thoughts and instead remaining turned towards the inner light. It will require recognizing that suffering is a blessing of motivation to return home, to remain vulnerable long enough to receive the grace necessary to alchemically transform one's pain into wisdom. This emptying out and surrender are the only true fulfillment in life and our divine right to leap beyond the ego's event horizon to the Absolute Self.

You Contain the Database of the Cosmos

In this divinely mad satsang, Shunyamurti journeys through his interpretation of the Sanskrit words written in Chapters 14 and 15 of the Ashtavakra Samhita. He clarifies the nuances and idiosyncrasies that are missed by other translators, about becoming established in shunyachitta with an empty and sattvic mind. One must let go of all worries about worldly matters, dissociate from the ego, and have a distaste for objects in order to taste divine presence. The joy of expanding into infinite intelligence, potency, and power is available to all but unimaginable to the ego. The choice is yours. Why not abide in stillness now?

A New Approach to High-Intensity Spiritual Training

Every ego today suffers from an allergy to Truth and Love. If we receive too large a dose of either, the mind becomes inflamed. To overcome this tendency to inflammation, we are offered a radical remedy: high-intensity spiritual practice that neutralizes all our autoimmune reactions. The ten principles of this training program are guaranteed to boggle your mind and free your heart from the constrictions and defensive shell that have kept love out and kept the mind in a miasma of delusion. The paradoxical nature of these principles will completely depotentiate your ego, giving your soul an immediate taste of the eternal delight of ultimate liberation.

Life Is an Ongoing Rite of Passage

The ego structure today is in what Carl Jung called the puer aeternus complex—an unwillingness to grow up and a rejection of the ongoing rites of passage that God offers the soul to complete the coup de grâce needed to let go of its immature relation to reality and obsolete identity. Shunyamurti reads from Chapter 13 of the Ashtavakra Samhita, which comes as close to the ultimate teaching as is possible in written form. The coup de grâce is to give up acceptance, rejection, and the belief that there is a someone to give those up. The only way out is to get to the central nerve of life energy and raise it to receive the full power of presence.

When Every Path Cancels Itself: Dzogchen, Ramana and the End of Seeking

In this teaching, Shunyamurti explores the paradox at the heart of all authentic traditions: Trika’s Netra Tantra calls for “supreme effort,” while other scriptures insist there is no path and no separate one to realize God. Taking us through concepts from Kabbalah, Ramana Maharshi, and Dzogchen, he reveals the synthesis: you are not the seeker in the story but the unmoving screen of pure, total consciousness on which all worlds appear. When this is realized, effort and non-effort collapse into the natural state of the Self.
