About this listen

The talk explores the concept of the “Eternal Now,” emphasizing the importance of living with full awareness in the present moment, rather than being distracted by past regrets or future anxieties. It argues that true fulfillment comes not from external achievements or fleeting pleasures, but from realizing one’s deeper spiritual nature and cultivating inner equilibrium through practices like meditation. Ultimately, Kriyananda suggests that by transcending likes and dislikes and identifying with the unchanging core of consciousness, one can experience lasting joy and freedom regardless of life’s changing circumstances.
