    It is funny to see how questions that were important for us then (15 years ago) , are out of context today
    I Did evolve a lot during this last 15 years (since 1994) , partly due to the patient answers of those great teachers…
    And you? were were you 15 years ago?…

    15 years ago, I was in the army… Military Duty… ;-)
    Out of joke, how can Bhava disappear for someone who has been practicing meditation for so long as Michel has been doing?

    Thanks for this video Stef.

    Bhava is a state in meditation that michel experimented for many years, he didn’t meant that he lost something when it ended but rather that this stage of bhava was succeed by something deeper but less phenomenal where ananda itself is replaced by deep peace and emptiness. It represent indeed a progression and not a regression.

    Hi Stef,

    The main ideas I have noticed are the ones you mentionned during our last master class:
    - search for a guru, and he will arrive
    - importance of meditation
    - the need to die ( question related to the feeling of breath stopping during meditation)
    - keep going/keep faith whatever happens
    I certainly missed many others :P

    Thanks so much,
    Regards

    PS: Do you remember the 1st questions those cannot be heard?

    Thank’s for your post Yun,
    The first questions (inaudible) were about asking permission for diffusing his teaching and Biography , maybe a book or so if I recollect well.We were trying to be of some service for his mission in France…unaware that he would pass away just few weeks after that interview.
    He answered that if people are interested this is good…

    The 1994 Bangalore interview was moved to the SSFHandloom channel on YouTube, http://www.youtube.com/user/SSFHandloom#p/u/33/J0vxSgNoBXg.

    Most of the questions I asked Swamiji over six years now seem a bit out of context also. We had no idea how precious an experience we had, so powerful that it still occupies and influences our minds.

    Swamiji’s blessings
