Swamiji, I do not believe in astrology but my husband’s parents believe in it that they keep going to a astrologer every now and then to ask when will me and husband have kids…After listening to your discourses I believe that whatever happens in life good or bad should be taken in a positive way and as God blessing..If the astrologer says something like it is difficult for us to have kids and we should do this etc , then my in laws will tell me to do that Varivadu, go to this temple etc which makes me angry..I don’t want to live my life on any one’s terms apart from God..Tell me swamiji what can I do during such situation and how to be peaceful when people say something like this…

Swamiji:

As Lord Krishna says, to some people we have to tell lies, so that they will feel we will follow them. But in our heart, we must remember that even if we get any thing which we don’t deserve, it will never survive. This we should learn from others’ experiences.

Namaskaram Swamiji, I have been following your programme everyday on Asianet. I like it very much and try to follow whatever you say. I work as a teacher at Mother’s Integral School in Hyderabad. Here we try to instill values of Sri Aurobindo in our children. I want to teach the children of this generation a few slokas of Bhagavad Geeta. But because it is not possible to teach all slokas, I want to start with a few important ones which have a good meaning and carry the essence of the Geeta. Can you suggest some such slokas for my school children??

Swamiji:

Hariom Aditya, I am also feeling so sad about the incident, but Aditya, you should be very brilliant like Aditya (Sun). Instead of feeling sad, we should learn a lesson from the Sun itself; every day the Sun has to die. Then we all go the miseries of darkness. Similarly

dear swamiji,the ego acts according to the vasanas ,and to detach ur self from the ego is ,not possible as long as we live,knowledge alone doesnt helpjust to think the body is inert and ignore it is very difficult the pain ,the hunger the emotions the thoughtsare all so strong,perhaps a man on the death bed will be able to do it

Swamiji:

HariOm! If you regularly tell yourself (auto suggestion) that “I can change my self” it will develop a mental confidence. Instead of that, if you think that it is impossible, it will always remain so. So, stop feeding your mind with doubts for some time and practise Sadhana. Then experience

Swamiji:

These are some customs developed in the course of time – to help women to take rest and maintain hygiene in the temple premises. It is not a matter of right or wrong. HariOm!

Dear swamiji, Manassu, Bhudhi,Chitham, Ahamkaram. What is the difrrence between Manasu and Chitham. Both are same or not. In Malayalam Meaning both are same . Unnikrishnan

Swamiji:

Mind functions in four ways as follows: Mind = emotional part, Buddhi = intellectual, Chitam = skill and memory, finally Ahamkaram = possessiveness. To get more clarity please get my Gita Discourse cd (recorded at Mulund, Mumbai). HariOm!

Pranams to swamiji, How do i over come feelings of lust/anger/fear/doubt?.

Posted by Rajeev on June 22, 2011

Swamiji:

To desire for higher energy itself is showing your inner growth. Please join meditation or yoga class and practise deep breathing exercise. Visualize Lord Krishna and lovingly chant “Hare Rama…. Hare Krishna….” for 108 times; you can see changes very shortly. The theory behind this transformation is that, one can

Dear Swamiji, Thank you very much for your answers for my earlier questions. I am 33 years old not yet married my relatives compelled me to get married to a widower who is having one girl child of age “12” as he is well settled known person etc… I spoke with that guy also because i thought i should not just like that reject what my elders say. After the talk i felt i don’t want this proposal and also informed them. The old people at home cursing me like god has given this proposal for you and you are rejecting it and you will not get gods anugraha and he will be angry on you as you are not obeying the elders. I always obey but this is something personal which my mind is not accepting what should i do. I give importance to my mind and i feel i should do what gives happiness to my mind . Am i right swamiji. Please advice me if I am wrong. I daily read VISHNU SAHASRANAMAM . thank you

Posted by Priya on June 21, 2011

Swamiji:

You are absolutely right in taking your own decision after sufficient analysis. A marriage is an important decision in life which should be taken very carefully. It is better to reject a proposal which does not give a feeling of well-being. HariOm!

Dear swamiji, What is meant by “”Dont be a perfectionist be a totalist””

Posted by Manoj on June 21, 2011

Swamiji:

The desire to be a perfectionist induces tension in us. It will cause feverishness and affect our performance as we demand 100% result and it may not be possible for us to achieve. When you give your 100% sincere commitment and involvement in whatever you do, it will detach you
