Day 7 • Spontaneous Recognition
In keeping with the theme of introducing you to the living practice and teacher of Shambhavananda Yoga, we now offer you Babaji’s first book, Spontaneous Recognition. This beautiful introduction to beginning a practice within the Shambhavananda tradition is written entirely in a question-and-answer format, capturing the essence of a traditional yogic practice known as satsang. In it, you’ll find many of the same questions we ourselves asked when beginning the path, along with Babaji’s direct and heartfelt responses. We offer this book to you as a gift, encouraging you to read it in small sections, reflect on it, and feel with it—to help you discern whether this path is truly meant for you.
Afterward, you’re invited to join a guided two-part breath pranayama practice led by Satyam, followed by one of our final stillness meditations: Buddha’s Waves.
