“We think we are human beings having a spiritual experience but in reality we are spiritual beings having a human experience” — Swami Survapriyananda
Consciousness -- the final frontier | Dada Gunamuktananda
For those of you wondering why he keeps his arms so still and by his side most of the video, I believe my comment to someone else who noticed this may be able to shed some light..
It’s a result of having tamed your “monkey-mind.” Usually we unconsciously move about during speech as we are enthralled in whatever it is we are talking about; however through consistent meditation you become increasingly aware of subtleties that might often go unnoticed. His speech is about “consciousness” and it’s no secret that regular meditation can indeed lead to expanded consciousness and awareness which can explain his calm demeanor. It’s not by accident, I assure you of that, it’s a sign of having mastered the senses through constant presence and awareness. If you are in a constant flow state; aware of each and every compulsion you may experience in your daily life (such as flailing our arms around and pacing about meaninglessly) then you can simply choose not to allow them to have control over you, you can choose to keep your arms perfectly by your side as a testament to your self-discipline and as a way to suggest that it’s “what I have to say that is important and not how I look while saying it.”
I hope this was helpful! I’m terrible at explaining things simply.
