GREETINGS

Namaskaram Swamiji,I have been hearing your Bhagavada sapthaham on youtube and it has helped me understand the thatvam behind the stories in great deal. Nowadays I’m feeling lot of disturbance in my mind, so many different thoughts occur every minute and this is resulting in meaningless dreams at night. Recent unexpected death of my distant relative has put me and my wife in a bit of shock and there is the underlying worry that what if it happens to us tomorrow (even though we know one day it will happen to everyone). Although everything in our life has been a blessing so far, but still such thinking are disturbing.I’m doing nama japam but I feel it more of a formality and not able to grasp the real intention of nama japam. Swamiji, need your guidance in understanding the steps to be taken to keep the mind detached from the thoughts.
