Sat Yoga "Classics" Film Festival!  

  

During the last week of June (June 28, 29, and 30 at 7:00pm) we will be watching some of the all time greatest movies that we have seen at the Institute in previous years. This is an excellent opportunity for new students to catch up on some of the sangha's favorites and support the Institute. We hope you will join us for this wonderful occasion to celebrate the gems of the cinema.  

 

Further information will be sent in a reminder later this month.

New Teaching by Shunyamurti

 

The Real and the Merely Realistic

The most important opposition to be understood by spiritual aspirants is that between what is realistic and what is Real. The realistic is determined by the culture. It is what conforms to reason, reason that is adapted to social reality, a constructed reality, a reality constructed specifically to maintain a given, though hidden, under-structure of power.

The Real is thus always unrealistic. The Real is what is beyond both imaginary concerns and symbolic concepts. The Real cannot be captured by symbolism. The Real is what is repressed from mundane, realistic discourse. To be on a spiritual path is to be on a path toward the Real. To be on a spiritual path is thus inherently to be unrealistic.
