Spiritual awakening and enlightenment is simply a progressive consequence of enduring the trials and tribulations of life. By carrying on with the fortitude, spiritual awakening is stimulated. Actions (Karma) are integral to progressing on the spiritual path. When the seeker ties in positive Karma with assimilated spiritual Gyan (Knowledge), he sees a growth in his efforts towards spiritual awakening. As stated in the Sri Yoga Vasishtha, one of the most profound works ever been done on spiritual awakening and enlightenment, and originally written by S Valmiki, “Both, actions (and knowledge are necessary for attaining liberation. Either alone does not lead to liberation.” This is effectively the essence to spiritual awakening and enlightenment. Assimilation of Gyan is quintessential to the growth of the spiritual seeker. Holding out infinite richness of knowledge and profundity, the Sri Yoga Vasishtha, often hailed as the ‘greatest spiritual work’ ever compiled, is a remarkable scripture of sublime spiritual knowledge and greatness. The book is the most profound compilation of stories professing deep understanding of the self and the soul. Every tale is so deeply invigorating that the reader is reminded of the very core of his Being. These compilations, the most noted of them being the conversations of a young Lord Rama with the great spiritual luminary, Sage Vasishtha, make the Sri Yoga Vasishtha simply indispensable to the one seeking spiritual awakening. Lord Rama, the worldly avatar of Lord Vishnu, and hailed as the source of all knowledge, was incarnated in human form and it is this journey of the Lord going through worldly obstacles and personal ignorance that the Sri Yoga Vasishtha so aptly recapitulates. The book, full of intrigue and narrative brilliance, is considered to be the ultimate guidance towards liberation and spiritual awakening. The first ever narration of the Sri Yoga Vasishtha was rendered to a certain Bharadwaj, one of the disciples of Sri Valmiki. Drawing upon the infinite knowledge of Sri Yoga Vasishtha, Bharadwaj went on to become one of the first few disciples of Valmiki to have attained liberation. Duly appended and masterfully reworked by Dr. Hari, one of the most revered names in contemporary spirituality, the Sri Yoga Vasishtha is available for download at Gyan Marg.
