From BhagavadGita,1.V must learn Wat God is,2.Wat d Living
Entities(we) r,3.Wat nature is,4.How it is ctrld by Time,5.Wat d
activities of d Living Entities r.
What is God? God by definition must've d qualities such as 1.Knowledge
2.Wealth
3.Power
4.Beauty
5.Fame
6.Renunciation
All4 100%.God cant b manufactured.God remains God@all times.Not that,a
man by yoga practice becomes God.God is d
SupremeController&NeverControlled.Nature&d LivingEntities r ctrld by
Him.
Wat is Nature?
There is no reason not2believe in God.But there is every reason2do
so.Everything is created by some1.V never heard of any machine coming
by chance.If so,is it not foolish2think that D Stars,d Sky,d Sun,d
Moon,d Earth came in2existence by chance.BigBang theory is
BlindFaith,not Belief in God
Wat r Living Entities
1.Souls In quality1with God but not in quantity.
2.Individually conscious(eg.I cant feel d pain in ur body but only in
mine).But God is supremely conscious.
3.Influenced by 3modes Goodness,Passion,Ignorance.
4.Bound by d reactions of his actions birth after birth in different bodies.
Wat r d activities of Living Entity? Primarily engaged in d animal pursuits of
1.Eating
2.Sleeping
3.Mating
4.Defending
Without inquiring what d purpose of Human Life is? Humanity begins
with this inquiry,Where I came from? Why am I suffering? Where will I
go after death.How2make solution2all suffering?
Wat is Time?
The actions r performed by d Living Entity with reference2d time.The
Living Entity does not know d time factor in which he is carried away
in life,just as clouds getting carried away by strong winds. D
reactions of actions r time framed,some r in Fructifying stage,while
others r yet2come.
"My Body" means Im different from this body.So There's some1who
possess d body.(Soul)He's d real self."Some look on d Soul as
amazing,some describe him as amazing,some hear of him as amazing,while
others even after hearing abt him cant understand him@all.Soul can
never b killed.So Not2grieve4any1"-BG:2.29
"Being desirous of sense enjoyment&opulent(rich) life they say that
there is nothing more than this! In d minds of those who r too
attached2sense enjoyment&wealth,d resolute determination4devotional
service2d SupremeLord doesnt take place"-Lord Sri Krsna in
BhagavadGita:2.43
According2Vedic injunctions there r 6kinds of Aggressors who can b
killed@once without incurring sin.
1.A poison giver 2.One who sets fire2dHouse 3.One who attacks with
deadly weapons. 4.One who plunders riches 5.One who occupies another's
land 6.One who kidnaps another's wife.
In d MaterialWorld,1 who is unaffected by whatever good r evil he may
obtain,neither praising it nor despising it,is firmly fixed in
PerfectKnowledge.1 who is able2withdraw his Senses from d
SenseObjects,just as d tortoise draws its limbs within d shell,is
firmly fixed in PerfectConsciousness.-BG:2.57-58
June 11, 2010
1 who has not connected with the SupremeLord can have neither
transcendental intelligence nor a steady mind without which there's no
possibility of peace.How can there be any happiness without
peace?-BG#2.66.How to attain peace then? Refer BG#5.29.
"1 who neither rejoices nor grieves,who neither laments nor
desires&who gives up auspicious&inauspicious things-such a devotee is
very dear2Me"-Krsna.BG#12.17
Primarily one(a spiritual practitioner) develops Bhakti by d mercy of
great souls or by a small drop of Lord's mercy-Narada Bhakti Sutra#38
"If u cant fix ur mind upon Me without deviation,follow d regulative
principles of Bhakti Yoga.In this way develop a desire2attain Me",Lord
Sri Krishna.BG#12.9
"If u cant Practice d Regulative Principles of Bhakti Yoga,then just
try2work4Me,becoz by working4Me u will come2d perfect Stage",Lord Sri
Krishna in BG#12.10.
People who depend more on their imperfect senses cant realize d
Supreme Lord.Most people want2know everything by their experimental
knowledge.But it isnt possible2know everything by imperfect
experimental knowledge.V claim2observe everything with our imperfect
senses but v must admit it's within a range.One has2accept d father's
identity from mother,experimenting is waste of
time.Similarly,d Vedic literature is like mother which when accepted
eases things.
Apr 03, 2010
1.Action,2.Food,3.Sacrifices,4.Austerity,5.Charity,all these fall
under different modes such as goodness,passion,ignorance. Action in
1.Goodness-appears like poison in d beginning but nectar in d
end.eg.studying4exams 2.Passion appears nectar initially but poison
later.3.Ignorance-miserable@all times-BG
"The non-permanent appearance of happiness&distress&their
disappearance in due course is like d summer&winter seasons.They arise
from sense perception.1 must learn2tolerate them without being
disturbed.A person who isnt disturbed by
happiness&distress&steady@both is certainly eligible4liberation"-BG2
As a person puts on new garments giving up older1s d Soul similarly
accepts new material body,giving up old&useless1s.d Soul can never b
cut in2pieces by any weapon,nor burnt by fire,nor moistened by
water,nor withered by d wind.Soul is
unbreakable&insoluble,unchangeable,immovable&eternally d same-BG2.13
"How've these impurities come upon u. They r not@all befitting a man
who knows d valueOfLife. They lead not2higher planets but2infamy.Do
not yield2this degrading impotence.It doesnt bcome u. Give up such
petty weakness&arise O chastiser of enemy"-Krsna2Arjuna in
BhagavadGita:Chapter 2
While speaking learned words u r mourning4what is not worthy of
grief.Those who r wise lament,neither4d Living nor4d dead.Never was
there a time v didnt exist nor in d future shall any of us cease2be.As
d embodied Soul passes from boyhood2youth2old age,d Soul similarly
passes in2another mailto:body@death%22,BG2.11
A Person who is not disturbed by d incessant flow of desires that
enter like Rivers in2d Ocean which is ever being filled but always
remain still(Ocean unagitated even during rainy reason),can alone
achieve LastingPeace¬ he who Strives2Satisfy such
Desires-LordSriKrsna In BhagavadGita (SongOfGod) 2.70
"Now I am confused abt my duty&ve lost all composure bcoz of this
miserly weakness.In this condition I am asking U2tell me4certain what
is best4me.Now I am Ur disciple&a Soul surrendered unto You.Pls
instruct me! I can find no means2drive away this grief which is drying
up my senses"-Arjuna2Krsna,BG:2.7
When d embodied living being ctrls his nature&mentally renounces all
actions,he happily resides in the City Of Nine Gates(d material
body)&he is free from bodily activities-Bhagavad Gita
Aug 21, 2010
Lust sits in
Senses
Mind
Intelligence
just like enemies conquer by positioning themselves@strategic points
in d battlefield.Lust pervades d entire body,senses r d
outlets4lust.Mind is d centre of all senses&is also called sixth
sense.Mind has2functions
1.Accepting
2.Rejecting
What2accept&reject is dictated by intelligence.Corrupted Intelligence
drags down one2d level of dog.StrongerIntelligence ctrls mind.A ctrld
mind is d best friend of conditioned soul while unctrld mind is d
worst enemy within d self.With mind v created our present body.Just as
air carries smell,mind carries soul from1body2another :(
Ignorance is no xcuse.LawsOfNature r so strict that no 1 can escape d
reactions of their actions.A BurningFire is impartial2child/adult.Just
as a calf find his mother even in d midst of 1000s of cows,d reactions
of actions hit d doer without fail.Moment by moment,v r sowing seeds
by our thots,words,deeds.
As a fire is covered by smoke,mirror by dust,embryo by womb,d living
Entities r covered by different degrees of Lust.Lust covers d real
knowledge of d self&is d Eternal enemy of d living beings,bound in
this World.There4 in d very beginning curb this lust(symbol of sin)
which burns like fire-BG
Sun appears2rise&set in our deficient eyes.But,it is there always.Same
way d Lord appears&disappears in this world2rescue d fallen souls from
miserable condn&take back2SpiritualWorld.But Fools think,He is 1among
d conditioned souls,ctrld by nature,like us.He's never ctrld by
any.He's d SupremeController.
What is BhagavadGita?
1.WordOfGod
2.SongOfGod
3.ScienceOfGod,LivingEntities,Nature,Time,Karma&their relation.
4.Medicine4d deha-atmis(those that r considering body as d self)&
wandering across different planets in infinite no of universes birth
after birth
5.Has info abt material,spiritual world,liberation,heaven,hell,devas,asuras
6.Karma,Jnana,Bhakti yoga&d destination of Karmi,Jnani,DevoteeOf d
Lord explained.
7.Spoken by Lord Sri Krsna,5000 yrs ago.
1.Senses r higher than d Sense Objects
2.Mind is higher than senses
3.Intelligence is still higher than Mind
4.He(d Soul) is above all these.
Senses pull d mind,mind pulls d intelligence,when intelligence is
lost,d soul is dragged down2d level of dog&all Godly qualities r
lost-BG

enjoys happiness without endeavoring4his livelihood.Where is such a
happiness4a materialistic man who is impelled by Lust&Greed&who
wanders in all directions desiring2accumulate wealth? SB#7.15.16
Being engaged in d materialistic activities,d living soul traps
himself in2d cycle of law of fruitive actions.This results in chain of

D dirty things in d heart of a conditioned soul is d root cause of all
troubles4him.He is actually meant2serve d Supreme will of d Lord but

new Problems&binds him-SB#2.1.22
Vedanta is d last word of Vedic wisdom&d author &knower of Vedanta

takes pleasure in chanting d Holy Names Of d Lord-BG#2.46

Displays of Devotion without the knowledge of God's greatness r no
better than illicit Lover's Affairs-NaradaBhaktiSutra#23

Gratitude.Seek His grace2outperform but never pray4other's
downfall.Every time d World tells u,"u cant",shut it up by ur
results.When d World says,"u can" reply that u'll prove
As a person puts on new dresses giving up old ones,d soul similarly
accepts new MaterialBodies giving up old&useless ones.D soul can never
b cut in2pieces by any weapon,nor burnt,nor moistened by water,nor
dried by wind.This individual soul is
unbreakable,insoluble,everexisting,unchangeable-BG#2.22-24 :-o
When Prabhupada was asked-Is there a Stage of spiritual advancement
from which 1 wont fall back? He said Yes. Very encouraging is nt it :)

6 changes of body.1.Takes birth@certain time
2.Then grows
3.Growth stops
4.Produces byproducts in d form of sons&daughters

From BhagavadGita,1.V must learn Wat God is,2.Wat d Living
Entities(we) r,3.Wat nature is,4.How it is ctrld by Time,5.Wat d
activities of d Living Entities r.
What is God? God by definition must've d qualities such as 1.Knowledge
2.Wealth
3.Power
4.Beauty

6.Renunciation
All4 100%.God cant b manufactured.God remains God@all times.Not that,a
man by yoga practice becomes God.God is d
SupremeController&NeverControlled.Nature&d LivingEntities r ctrld by
Him.
Wat is Nature?
There is no reason not2believe in God.But there is every reason2do
so.Everything is created by some1.V never heard of any machine coming
by chance.If so,is it not foolish2think that D Stars,d Sky,d Sun,d
Moon,d Earth came in2existence by chance.BigBang theory is
BlindFaith,not Belief in God
Wat r Living Entities
1.Souls In quality1with God but not in quantity.
2.Individually conscious(eg.I cant feel d pain in ur body but only in
mine).But God is supremely conscious.
3.Influenced by 3modes Goodness,Passion,Ignorance.
4.Bound by d reactions of his actions birth after birth in different bodies.
Wat r d activities of Living Entity? Primarily engaged in d animal pursuits of
1.Eating

4.Defending
Without inquiring what d purpose of Human Life is? Humanity begins
with this inquiry,Where I came from? Why am I suffering? Where will I
go after death.How2make solution2all suffering?
Wat is Time?

The Lord accepts the least qualification of the living entity and
awards him the highest reward. That is the standard of His character.
Therefore, who but the Lord can be the ultimate shelter???

only so much useless labor if they do not provide attraction4d message

4my own pleasure,I never Fear2commit any sin.Im devoid of pity&Im full
of selfishness.Im Sorry@other's happiness.Im an inveterate liar.Indeed
I delight in others' miseries-Amara Jivana,Bhakti Vinoda Thakur.
"Having awakened faith in My narrations,being disgusted with all
material activities,knowing that all sense enjoyment leads2misery,but
still being unable2renounce sense enjoyment,My devotee shud remain
happy&worship Me with faith&conviction.Even tho sometimes he is
engaged in sense enjoyment,My devotee knows it gives miserable
results&he sincerely,repents such activities-SB#11.20.27-28
Those who fix their minds on My personal form and are always engaged
in worshiping Me with great and transcendental faith are considered by

2Nammazhwar who is his Guru.
Sethadu-body,siriyadu-soul(which is smaller 1/10000 part of tip of our hair)
Here a distinction is made on d life(which is due2soul)&dead(body).If
d soul comes2d womb(dead matter) of a feminine body,wat does it
eat&where does it stay?
It eats d same dead matter(all that v eat is earth&our body also is

Realization means you should write, every one of you, what is your realization
Posted by dinesh
Feb 27, 2011
"Realization means you should write, every one of you, what is your realization. .. You write your realization, what you have realized about Krishna. That is required. It is not passive. Always you should be active. Whenever you find time, you write. Never mind, two lines, four lines, but you write your realization. Sravanam kirtanam, writing or offering prayers, glories. This is one of the function of the Vaishnava. You are hearing, but you have to write also. Then write means smaranam, remembering what you have heard from your spiritual master, from the scripture."

It's true that we still have material desires&we are not upto the
level of a paramahamsa. But that doesnt mean we can give up our
Spiritual practice&we can enjoy or fructify the material desires
because there is no end point for such desires. The more we enjoy, the
more we suffer or struggle. Considering the condition of such
devotees, there can be some concession given to them for getting some
attachment to marriage and family life. But the ultimate point is to
bring them back to Krishna gradually.
