Understanding Dharma

[@dharmabum1111]

Listening to talks like this has become part of my daily spiritual practice. Thank you for sharing these thoughts.

[@katielynneyoung4738]

I can never express how much I enjoy these Q&A sessions. You and Cat are a great blessing in my life and to all those who watch these videos. Thank you🙏

[@janmcquistan1419]

I am in India now studying with a Vedic guru. We are studying dharma, samskara and karma right now. This conversation is very helpful. I would enjoy more talk about these topics.

[@sophiatyriel7399]

Cool!

It takes much effort to face yourself and analyze self behaviors that may or may not be for your greater good. It feels almost automatic to make judgement about yourself based off other people’s behavior and not your own. It’s a bitter sweet feeling to acknowledge your own flaws, accept them and make the effort to transform your negative into positive.

Attended a class on Soul's Code at the Theosophical Society shortly after its publication in 1996. It made me a Hillman fan. I can't remember how many times I've recommended it to people over the years or cited examples of behavior in kids that becomes defining later in unexpected ways. Jackson Pollack is a particular favorite. Nice discussion.

😯This is the second video suggesting "The Souls Code" by James Hillman. I'll take that as a sign I need to read it! Intuitive Astrologer Molly McCord suggested it in her video that she released today. 😮

"The Character is a mirror of what the soul has been doing" love that! ,Peace & Much Love

Thanks for the great discussion! Another aspect of understanding dharma is that it can also be contextual. Dharma for the character is sometimes called sva-dharma - dutifully or religiously being the best laborer, merchant, administrator, teacher etc., one can be - given one's conditioned nature or character. Dharma in the context of the soul, has to do with one's essential nature. An example given is the dharma water is wetness; the two are inseparable . So the soul's dharma , that inseparable something, is understood to be spontaneous loving service connected to eternal Source, also called sanatana (eternal) dharma. Dharma of the soul is one's eternal love-actuated activity which transcends one's temporary and changeable earthbound duty/occupation/religion.

The just action, at the just time with the just state of Being. Balance through Will of Compassion is the key 🙏🔥💚

[@tamorose]

It would seem to me that the Soul is always plenty awake and that the character is becoming aware that there is a Soul Source that we come through to experience here.

[@tamorose]

It also seems to me that the Soul IS Love and is looking for experience. It is the character looking for Love and pleasure.

@@tamorose TOTALLY- Hear this- like the Id or Ego vs Immortal Spirit/Soul

[@siennabigg3644]

Oh Lordy! My bank account can’t keep up with all the amazing book recommendations you’ve given 🤣 Insightful and validating as always! Thank you both 🙌

[@chris01hall]

Really great information, thank you. I would love to hear more about how astrology explains time. In past life regression studies, they say our soul severs us. It great to hear truth from different sources that compliment eachother.

[@Kate-hh8yi]

What sacred threads are tying the life together and giving it meaning, a sense of obligation and duty?.... Beautiful way to see the chart, and life 💜

[@melissamoore521]

Interesting that my favorite thing you say is at 20:20... Namaste!

[@melissamoore521]

and with the 11:11 thing, you know that you are hearing the Divine when, in a rage at the squirrels for spilling the seeds from the birdfeeder, you hear, "Isa... a squirrel's gotta make a living..."

[@DivineVortex]

This is so deep, I had to play it several times The second time while I was asleep to make sure my subconscious can digest it ... 😆

[@serenadevon]

Thank you for this q&a for Dharma. But I must say as I love & believe in astrology, I also must say l believe in numerology. Just as Astrology gives us guidance, numerology does too.

[@pascaledaviau1363]

Wonderful again! Thanks so much. Took note of the book and look forward to reading it 👍🏼

[@angiejennings4687]

Woo hoo I’m so glad I’m here my birthday is June 20 I was born at 1:10 AM I have Venus and Saturn in my Gemini chart woo hoo

[@debroo2128]

Happy coming up Birthday Angie🙂🎂

[@debroo2128]

Thanx for this guys. Maybe I'm mistaken but it kinda seems like you r leaning toward Vedic astrology Acyuta. Will you b studying this in future? A fantastic Vedic astrologer who would make a wonderful guest is Ernst Wilhelm. (on u tube) He says that Vedic astrology is a part of the the holy scriptures in Vedic culture along with the Upanishads, etc. He also is devout and rigorously but kindly honest and direct like you r. He taught himself the ancient language of the Vedic scriptures and has written a # of interesting books on Vedic astrology. You 2 together would sure make for a fascinating conversation to listen in on. What a treat that would b! 🙂❤

[@eudaimoniapodcast8309]

"The soul comes out and says, 'Oh, you're trustworthy...I'll make out with you.'" Amazing! I think of my self (human ego form) pursuing a sort of inner sacred marriage (hieros gamos) with my deeper Self, so this resonates. (Also, my deeper Self seems to appreciate a good sense of humor...And, so does my transient embodied self). :)

[@trishwyland]

Ok so my birthday is 11-11 and it is a very special number for me.

[@teadale2693]

Thank you Acyuta-bhava.. my question is not how can I bypass the experiences.. but how can I learn what I am supposed to learn and not have to go through the painful experiences over and over and over again.. how can I know what it is that I need to learn so I can learn it?? does that make sense? So that I can move on to the next lesson that I need rather than repeating old issues.

[@Polaris333]

CroneScorp Warrior i feel the same way. why does it have to be such mystery? why do we have to go thru painful experiences over and over when whoever created us (even if we are self organized entities) knows what this life is all about? this is what makes me believe that our entire life experience is pre-planned and that we just need to live it, good and bad, without worrying about it.

[@brandysnyder463]

Wax on wax off

[@motorknight4084]

Cat's family on her site look so Irish lol,. The Irish in Britain didn't have such an easy time in the past.

[@shanarhinehart1593]

Would Dharma be represented by Hestia/vesta the keeper of the sacred hearth flame?

[@geojone28]

Yay!!! I am the first viewer for once🥳🥳🥳

[@lorettaelainecorson4035]

Started watching this during Halloween Full Blue Moon Weekend! I realized I had written a blog-not a comment-my apologies guys-lol I am a Leo Rising, Gemini SUn, Scorpio Moon DOES anyone else know those 3 Placements? I PRAY THAT ALL WHO READ THIS FIND ~JOY & PEACE~ in 2021 Blessed Be!

[@essence830]

7:27 - !! -----> 9:04

[@Kate-hh8yi]

Oh! Good! I'm right on track then- not thinking I'll achieve anything 🤣 but compelled nonetheless to succeed. So maybe this is my spiritual calling? We need to find a cooler way of referencing this. "Woke" isn't gonna cut it either.

[@NeinFeline]

With the whole 11:11 aspect... If the majority of the world adopts it as a significant occurrence in this world...then IT IS or becomes important because people have manifested it into this world... To talk this and other phenomena down as "novelty"... Do you even get what's going on!?

[@terencedonovan5254]

I don't understand Dharma OR Greg!
