Living in Your Divine Presence

Dear Jacob Bhai, 

I have had a very sacred experience of subtleness, of the self from attending your webinar. Your guidance has always been and is always meaningful and valuable. Your practical guidance and experience-filled examples are useful and helpful. The webinar has been extremely beneficial for me, and I thoroughly relished, loved and absorbed every moment of it – this coupled with your spirit, enthusiasm, transparency, honesty, humbleness, straight-forwardness and not forgetting the great sense of humor you exude Jacob Bhai is awe-inspiring to say the least. Your discourses/lives/webinars, have innumerable gems hidden in them, which only, when and through persistent discernment and awareness, am I able to truly realize, experience it. I have for quite some time now been searching for practical course content, such as those that you provide. Your webinar/s and discourses are focused on what I consider to be the foremost aim in my life, which is to realize and experience my own self/presence. I attended the webinar with a deep yearning, sincerity in my heart and seriousness coupled with a deep resonance of just knowing that this was where I needed to be. 

Your webinar enabled me to have a very real, tangible and personable experience, with you Jacob bhai, as a live instructor, being present and on the line with you, making jokes at times and patiently answering questions along the way. You speak about things that are not popular and very much what I am looking for. In my experience your webinar is invaluable and priceless in that, when one is in attendance, and if one is totally present in awareness, one will absorb all that is subtle and not that which is gross. I found myself experiencing staying in awareness for the longest period of time that I could ever hold before – this lasted almost for 3 entire days. The only other times I experienced such heightened states was when I attended a 1 month deepening sadhna course at the Ekam Asharam in India, Chennai in 2008 and when I had attended shivir’s graced by my Guru in South Africa. 

Another benefit of attending your webinar is that, it is a great resource of information and a pleasure to listen to your talk – highly inspirational and perfectly pitched to the audience, as always. I would further like to highlight how dynamic the session was, very active, interesting, and well organized and it provided a safe space to share one’s experiences, if chosen to do so. The session has given me great value, direction and motivation. What I have gained is priceless and invaluable – my sentiment is that the fee I paid was not enough to cover the value I gained and received. I value my time and how I choose to spend it, above all else, even when it comes to monetary resources. Money for me is not valued as much as I value my time, that is to say, with who, what, where and how I choose to spend it. I hope I’m making sense and conveying what I mean to communicate in this regard. The teachings are so simple yet incredibly profound, if caught. I have attended many, many courses in my life, in this regard, they all promise to give step by step guidance and outcomes but still somehow leave you still wanting with too many questions left unanswered – also, many of them have been attended in a haphazard fashion –  whereas, on the other hand, your webinar is uniquely different in that it is well structured, well communicated with a deep sense of resonance and is based on your very own experiential journey of trial and error in terms of healing and evolution, which is what I absolutely value and love.  

I have pursued this spiritual path/journey to alleviate my suffering as well as to prevent myself from creating or adding more suffering because of maya or living an unconscious life, through ignorance. I am focused on being aware and not creating additional frivolous gross desires that ultimately work against my primary goal of mukthi/jeevan mukthi. I have learnt, the hard way, through experience, that endless desires without my conscious awareness and discernment is dangerous. I want to resolve all unresolved issues without creating more. I am here to develop my awareness and go deeper and deeper. You have helped me to re-remember all that deeply resonates within, and not to just be spiritually entertained and stimulated for a few hours. This webinar helped me to fine tune my actions in a very consciously deliberate way and helped me to fill the gaps. In no way am I perfect or without any flaws or issues – I am fully aware that this path is walked alone ultimately, however I cannot help-in finding myself truly honoured and grateful for the support and guidance I receive from you. Jacob Bhai, in my experience you have an uncanny ability in helping to raise my awareness /consciousness that in turn automatically helps to reduce my perceived pain and sufferings. You are authentic, honest, to the point and you never take any credit for any wellbeing anyone else experiences – you often very clearly state, that the only one responsible is just yourself/oneself – your approach is direct and true which is a stark contrast to what the rest of the world preaches in terms of others healing you or connecting you to God or being the mediator outside. 

I experienced a great inner peace and continue to do so – there is a deep inner knowing, a feeling of safety, clarity, and there is no desperate need to be anything or go anywhere or do anything other than what I’m divinely guided to do. All that I have to offer in this testimonial is to convey my heartfelt gratitude, thanks, appreciation and love for all that I’ve received and all the nonsense I’ve dropped and continue to drop on this sacred journey to mySELF.

Namaste 🙂

What a wonderful session, its surely blasted my layerssszzzzz of karmas !

Please share my testimonial :

Extraordinary and extremely powerful session. Cannot imagine how someone could put me in such a blissful state that is still continuing even after 30 hours. Any aspirant on a spiritual path should and must attend this session. Surely it’s not for those who are looking for quick solutions to their issues. It’s a genuinely powerful session that will catapult the progress of any seeker. The deep intense session will give you a soul experience. Highlight was, I also gained superb input on how to continue this state for longer and for the long term. Looking forward to more such sessions 🙂

About the session:

1. The talk was so relevant and aligned to process

2. Timing was perfect, allowing Q&A break 😉

3. Well-organised sessions dn should be done on a more regular basis

4. In the audio there was a very slight disturbance. I could not hear that when I had headphones on, but without headphones, I could hear it, not that it bothered me but might have to some others.

Once again a big Thank you to you and the Gurumandala who allowed me to receive this.

Looking forward to my trip to India in July and also the planned trip to Aruncahala.

Dear Bhaiya

Many many thanks .

About 12th March Live —

Session was absolutely simply amazing.

Frequently attending such practice full events will be very helpful for staying into awareness. It clarifies the how and what of the –  efforts for being effortless.

During the walk, I felt as if everything within and without is just happening by itself and though I am seeing but I am not seeing.

Some more sharing bhaiya –

Sometimes I am just sitting and it just happens,eyes get closed by their own even without my thinking. 

I see myself, things and others around and get a feeling – Catch that what is real.

I really don’t feel like talking much.

Reading or thinking what I read and feeling the meaning inside gives me stillness and love being in that zone.

Before going to sleep and after getting up – I am not this body mind lesson starts on its own.

Profound feeling which is so new to me is “I feel like setting aside everyone (including you) and all the teachings and readings from my thoughts and feel like having my own first hand experience free from every learning. 

Its like, even if I don’t understand anything even if my mind says that I have failed in practice even then there is a reality which is crystal clear for me….i.e, I am, I exist. I cannot deny or fail to feel it. 

I am able to see at many situations how my mind plays both roles of tricking me into it and then beating up.

My inner being is guiding me to

“Keep quiet and just practice”

I don’t feel like asking questions bhaiya.

Thoughts overpower me,drain me but there is a gap of presence which keeps me awake though exhausted. 

Meanings of books that I am re -reading are different now.As if I missed them earlier.

As I have always tried to be in good books of my relatives to maintain my identity of being great.

There is a fall in those efforts.Though it still troubles me but I can see the difference. 

I see that few patterns are so strong, 

like – I have to be treated in a way to be comfortable, 

I need to have the mental comfort that I am thought good and not misunderstood. 

I try to shift into awareness when they spring up.

Sometimes I succeed to shift sometimes I don’t.

“Leave the mind alone.” Then and there without any investigation is what I seek to learn.

Online and offline practice full events are very very helpful bhaiya.They walk us through the talks.

Thankyou.

Regards.

Poonam 

Sir,

I would like to share my webinar experiences with you.

In the first LIVING IN YOUR PRESENCE webinar I had a wonderful experience. Usually we remain inside the house whole day even if it is for 2 days or 3 days if there is no outside work.But at the end of the webinar when you asked us to go for a walk for 10 minutes I could cover the areas which I would have hesitated to do. Very naturally I opened the main door, went outside the house walked down the stairs & went even beyond the staircase. My mind was very calm. No thoughts. I didn’t feel like talking. It was a very blissful state. I cannot explain exactly in words.

In the repeated webinar I had the glimpse of the inner light just for a fraction of a second & lost it. Then I started imagining the light.

I found both  the webinars   very valuable in our journey towards the SELF. Thank you very much sir.

Sir I would like to give the feedback about the webinars.

In the first LIVING IN YOUR PRESENCE webinar in the last 10 minutes session my mind was very calm. After the webinar to my surprise I have found that my power of concentration has greatly increased. Earlier I could not read newspaper even for 10 minutes. Now I can read it for a long time with concentration.

In the second webinar whenever I tried to become aware of the peripheral vision keeping my focus on you & tried to become aware of other sounds listening to your voice I used to feel very relaxed to the point of yawning. In the last 10 minutes session my mind was very calm.

Earlier sometimes I used to become aware of mySELF. I  did not know more about it. Now the webinars threw much light on this.

Thanks a lot sir.

~ a Seeker

I would like to provide  also common feedback from both of us sisters.

Sir the webinars (for that matter all your programs) helped us to understand the difficult spiritual concepts clearly. Your explanations  are simple & direct.

Greetings ✨️

In our quest towards the ultimate we keep on reading and listening to the talks pertaining to the same but in yesterday’s collective session there was a very strong experience of the ‘Presence ‘. During the break when i left the room the intensity decreased and there was a constant effort to be with it ( and were were slips and gains ). The moment i was back into the room, again a very strong feeling of the presence was there.

The moment the session had started there was a constant feeling to be aware of who the witness through which these eyes were seeing and body experiencing and bingo you talked about the same.

During the session there was an unsaid comfort zone and peace that prevailed.

Wish to be a part of more of such sessions that will help in the permanence experience of the ‘Presence ‘.
The lot of additional tips that you gave will definitely help in the journey.

Thank you for such a great practical initiative and the experience we have there helps us to have a taste of the Truth.
Stay blessed 🙏🙏

Namaste
Thank you 🙏

Yesterday’s session was special.Before when I used to practice I never felt anything from within..it was more of a practice for stilling the mind but yesterday I could feel that inner happiness n divine presence..I could touch that space that I had not experienced before..though it was very short ..I would want to stretch it more n more..

Life is the same today as everyday but I’m more aware of my presence n I hope to enhance n stretch it n evolve.
These kind of sessions are helpful as one tends to get sucked into ones own reactions ,mind n triggers..n to come out of ur own created muck. You need such powerful sessions.

I’m grateful.
