Understanding Death | In Quest of Truth - Babaji Q&A, No. 287 Recorded on 25 July 2026 with worldwide participants 0:00 Intro 0:53 Life is actually death and death is actually life - as the day we are born we are starting to move towards death. Are we looking at life correctly? 14:20 Once the illusion of Maya is dropped, we see the true Self which is in itself the death of the false self? 16:59 By seeing the dead bodies going into the ground in the graveyard and going to the funeral pyres, can this help us to realise the Truth? 25:14 Time is like the death around your neck that can sting you at any moment. When you understand limited time, then you understand beyond time and space. 34:29 Is the death of the mind necessary to realize the Self? 36:43 Is fear of death actually fear of the unknown or is it also rooted in attachment to the body? 38:08 Is meditation actually the practice of death? 38:56 Can a realised soul know the exact time of death? 40:00 So death is worth celebrating and being happy that you will merge with the true Self? 41:30 Once the mind has been totally stopped for 1 hour, why is it necessary to increase the duration to 10 or 20 hours in meditation? Why is time relevant when the mind is quiet? 43:50 "Energy is an inseparable entity in consciousness." Can I inhale the supreme energy as life and exhale all the things we don't need? 46:43 The tongue comes to the roof of the mouth during mediation, is that ok? 47:07 Can I look up during meditation? 47:23 What to do about a reactive mind? 48:00 Is the light that I experience in my mind? 48:54 Post death rituals are performed in various religion to remove negative energy for the departed soul. Are these necessary? 50:58 I hear things from the external world during meditation. How to overcome this? 54:00 The misconception that one needs to become powerful or supernatural when realising the Self. 57:10 Can only consciousness of existence know consciousness of existence? 58:05 Can you go from consciousness of existence as object and consciousness of existence as subject? 59:18 Is Hanuman eternal? 1:00:02 Are some souls more evolved than others? 1:01:59 Descriptions in the Puranas about the river of vaitarani, all just imaginations? 1:03:02 Should we perform Anna dana (donation of food)? 1:04:05 What is the meaning of invoking a spirit? 1:05:15 Thoughts are becoming more intense in meditation the longer I have been practising. 1:07:04 I focus on the inner space in meditation, is that a valid way to meditate? ___ Subscribe:    / @srbymission   Website: http://www.srby.org Facebook:   / shivarudrabalayogi   Twitter:   / srbymission   Instagram:   / shivarudrabalayogi
