Respected Swamiji, I was happy to hear your announcement in today’s (04/12/10)Asianet discourse, that you have asked the next Gandhi Jayanti day, Oct. 2, 2011, to be observed as Gita Day and everyone should distribute at least one Gita book to someone that day to spread Gita around. this is a very laudable call and I am sure it will receive the widest appeal. I had occasion to read Sr Sri Paramahansa yoganandaji’s Bhagavad Tita, God Talks with Arjuna, Royal Science of God-Realisation a few yaears back. I understood the reeal meaning of Gita from it – passing from Karma Yoga to Bakhti Yoga, to Ashatanga Yoga and finally to Jnana Yoga becoming one with God. I liked and benefited from this exposition so much that I distributed about ten copies of The Gita to various people and those who received and read and understood it also greatly benefitted frfom it. Humbly yours, E Vishwa nathan

Dear Vishwa Nathanji, We are trying to rebuild the holistic education that we missed in the last many years. Our Mahathma Gandhi became a Great Soul because of his Geeta Parayan. We are going to inculcate great values in today’s children to make them Mahathmas of tomorrow through Geeta! Please

Swamiji, Pranams. When we perform rituals for our dead ancestors we refer to Pithu as Vasuroopasya, Pithamaha as Rudra roopasya and Prapithamaha as Aditya roopasya. Do these forms refer to Vasu as in Ashtavasus, Rudra as in Ekadasa Rudras and Aditya as in soorya? What are the attributes of these respective roopas for the departed souls? Further, for eg. my Pithamaha is my paternal uncle’s Pithu. So when I perform rituals he is referred as Rudra roopasya and when my uncle performs rituals the same ancestor is referred as Vasu roopasya. Can one soul be in two roopas at the same time? Kinldy enlighten me. Lakshmanan

Swamiji:

Dear Lakshmanan, The one and only ONE Self manifests through various forms as the same water is present in various bubbles! Focus your attention on the eternal Self; do not waste your precious time on such meaningless debates! Hari Om!

Pranaam Swamiji I am 19 year old. You have inspired me and my friends to know Bhagavat Gita. Can you suggest any book that deals with the meaning of Bhagavat Gita in English? We are eagerly waiting for your discourse on Bhagavat Gita to be telecast on Asianet or Surya TV. Do you have any such plan? Eagerly waiting for your reply.

Swamiji:

Dear Neha , Please buy books on Gita from Chinmaya Mission. We have plans to publish books too. Hari Om!

You mention the difference between ‘japam’ and ‘dhyanam’ in your talks. Please let me know how I can progress from jaspam to dhyanam. Thank you.

Swamiji:

Dear Kirti, Japam purifies your mind and Dhyanam surrenders your mind. You start with Japam and the so purified mind only can be surrendered through Dhyanam. Hari Om!

Pls is it possible to e-mail the chatur slokas in sanskrit ( Lord vishnu to Bramha) with explanation in English.

Dear Unnikrishnan, We will publish it soon in this site. Hari Om!

This morning, I woke up dreaming that I was about to die. I saw in the dream people waiting with the bamboo poles to put my body on for cremation. But I was in no hurry to oblige them! I started asking myself, “why am tthe REAL I IN THIS BODY hesitating to cross over to my REAL HOME happily, realising that all that I hold dear are only hallucinations created by my identification of reality with whatever the indriyas have been registering as the truth and fooling my mind and preventing it from focussing on the ONLY REAL TRUTH? ” Swamiji, I woke up so light hearted, happy and active after I contemplated on this question, remembering your words I listen to every morning on TV. I have a basic problem and I request for your kind advice. It is re: sadhana. I know I should be doing what is right and should not do what is wrong. What is right and wrong, I am able to discriminate in my conscience. But, whatever resolutions I make, I am unable to put them in practice. In other words, the mind i

Iam always happy with what Bhagavan gives.He is always irritated for silly silly matters.That times Iam consoling him saying that Guruvayoourappan has always with us Then why should we bother? He is 57years now.Some times he is willing to hear your speeches. The very next moment as Swamiji says Kemke….kemke…How can I keep away from this weak mind.? Swamiji always says avanavan venam avanave uyarthan. I am waiting for your advice Hari Om!

Swamiji:

Dear Indira, Physical freedom and mental freedom are different. A person living in a prison may be mentally free; but a person in the open world may not be mentally free. You should know how to (mentally) associate and dissociate with others. When your sole focus is in the Lord,

Swamiji:

Dear Ranjith, Sun represents the real sun (Chaithanyam) in your body. Because of that you can experience the brilliance of our sun in the sky. Mantras are helping the mind to get in tune with the Inner Sun. You can chant any Mantra (Gayathri or Hare Rama Hare Krishna……). HariOm!

Posted by AISWARYA on December 7, 2010

Swamiji:

Dear Aiswarya, If you practise Pranayam (taking breath deeply and observe it), your mind will become calm and quiet. You will be able to visualize and memorize each chapter well. You will develop confidence while writing exams. This is a very powerful auto suggestion. My Blessings are with you, HariOm!
