0:13 Viveka Choodamani, Chapter 4 - Eligibility of the Disciple
1:41 Despite being sincere to Babaji and Swamiji as Gurus in life, why do we sometimes fail to practice meditation diligently? How to develop sincerity in one's thoughts and actions?
7:04 The only person who can determine our sincerity is we ourself, as we know where our thoughts. are?
8:03 Chapter 4, verse 14
9:05 What is the importance of auspicious time and place in reaching the Ultimate Truth and how do we convert the atmosphere into a conducive one?
16:41 Chapter 4, verse 15
18:04 Can one use the mind and its imaginations for self-inquiry towards Self-Realization? Does that mean that those who do not have a Guru can still achieve Self-Realization?
26:05 Chapter 4, verse 16
27:44 Can one gain real intelligence through meditation alone or are there other factors like reading, studying, observing, to gain such intelligence?
34:34 There are many intelligent individuals who lack spiritual growth and focus on worldly achievements - does this mean they are intelligent but lack spiritual wisdom?
46:54 Chapter 4, verse 17
49:19 With constant meditation, will the mind slowly recede and detach itself from worldly illusions and only when we start longing for liberation, we are on the right path of spirituality.
