Respected Swamiji, I lost my job in 2003, after putting in almost 25 years of sincere service. I started hating my boss who was responsible for this and my hatredness towards him still continues, in spite of almost 7 years have passed. Ofcourse by the grace of God, I could get a job, though not attractive in terms of money and fame. The boss who was responsible for removing me from service also lost his job in the same year. However, in my dreams I take revenge against my boss and I feel happy that he is repenting for the act he has done on me. Swamiji, I wanted to know what should I do to get rid of my vengence in mind against such a boss. Should I go and approach him and vend it out … once for all….I know and my mind also tells me that I should not think ill about anybody including our own enemies…. Please advise.

Swamiji:

Dear Mararji, An ordinary person never discover his/her own short commings ( less skill or less efficency). When somebody questions or finds out, then we develop revenge upon them, thinking that they are our enemies. Understand, when somebody criticizes they are expecting more perfection from us. Intelligent one learns and

swamiji,is there any book for udhavopadesam?

Posted by Raji.v.nair on August 29, 2010

Swamiji:

Dear Raji, There is a book “Udhavopadesam” written by Swamy Chidanandasaraswati, published by Guruvayoor Devaswam. It is available in Guruvayoor Devaswam’s book stall in Guruvayoor. Hari Om!

Respected Swamiji, I am an ardent devotee of yours and I derive lot of inspiration from your talks. You have adequately explained the need for us to live in the present and accept the result of our endeavours as God’s dispensation. However one key issue is not clear. In today’s working world however well u perform your work needs to get noticed for you to get ahead. Similarly if your thought does not go towrds acquiring certain things like a house one is likely to be left homeless in old age. So is it wrong to be ambitious or to wish to have something material like a house. Do such feelings clash with your teachings or with what is stated in the Bhagvad Gita or the Bhagvatham. If being ambitious or wishing for something is not wrong how does one go about it?

Swamiji:

Dear Vasant, With out desires we can’t live our life. Life is stimulated or propelled by desire to have a bright, healthy and wealthy future. Our sages never discouraged such ambitious mind. In Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna says “MAM ANUSMARA and UDHYA CHA” meaning, remember or surrender to me and

Dear Sir, This is the first time i know about u pls say about my life after marraige. whatever i do good im getting bad name only. i want my husband to support me because he is not supporting me if any body says something about bad in front of him (mother and brother). pls change him or atleast he dont want to support me but he can ask question why u are scold my wife. See im elder than my husband i.e., 8 months. But his Brother wife younger then me and his brother. Brother supporting his wife and no body can question her. If he saw anybody scolding and saying some thing about her means he will put question on them. My Daughter Ayush ohmam her brother started to scold me and ready to slap but unfortunately all of them in my family told that her husband is there how can u do like this. He never ask his brother why u are doing like this she is my wife. But his brother wife did any wrong my husband wont ask. If i did his mother and brother ready to ask and changing my husband mind also.

Dear Shobha, Each mind in this world is very unique; means, each one’s behavior is different. I feel your marriage is a love marriage? Love is initiated with some attraction either on physical beauty, character, skill, money etc. The common nature of male mind is that they expect a lot

Pranam, Guruji, I have kept ‘Lord Krishna’ murthi, in my house. This was bought from Guruvayoor. This murthi is 3 feet height with a flute. One of my friend who visited me told that at Home we should not keep the flut on Lord Krishna. Is it correct ? Should I keep the flut on the murhty or remove it. Kindly advise. I used to watch you on Surya tv everyday in the morning. Pranam

Swamiji:

Dear Vijayan, Majority of Hindus are unfortunately ignorant about the philosophy of our religion. The cute form of Krishna with flute represents our body and soul. The flute is our body, the nine holes are the nine holes in our body (2 eyes, 2ears, 2 nostrils,1 mouth,1 urinal,1 anus=9). The

We get various births with forms such as animal, bird, human according to our previous karmas. But what caused our very first birth and where were we before the first birth ?

Posted by Dinesh on August 29, 2010

Swamiji:

Dear Dinesh, It is very fascinating to discover some thing which is hidden. Our sages say that the mind is the manifestation of the Lord, like sun and sun rays or ocean and its waves. It is not the birth, which is creating problems; it is the mind because of

swamiji what is the purpose of our life

Posted by Sooraj.c on August 29, 2010

Swamiji:

Dear Sooraj, Keep a smiling face & have a very creative, enthusiastic mind in your works. Have a steady mind when you go through good or bad events. If you can do this, you can see a real purpose in life.

Swamiji namaskaram, i am 47 years old. i will be marrying for the second time to a divorcee. My first wife was always interested in my property and money so she used to torture me and finally tried to fool me but with great difficulty and God’s grace i was saved. We have a child. The child is with her. She ran away with her lover who is (I think) a Muslim. i feel sorry for the child and am concerned about the child’s future. After the tragedy i went into depression but it was because of your pravachanams that i recovered. But now when i decided to get married many of them feel that i am taking a wrong decision and binding myself unnecessarily. swamiji, i feel that someone should be there to take care of me and my old mother. What is our scope at your ashram? Can my mother and i stay in the ashram? what kind of lifestyle should we follow? Can you guide me please?

Posted by Ravi on August 28, 2010

Swamiji:

Dear Ravi Our Ashram is a place where we provide an environment in which each one can develop and transform to higher spiritual level. If you feel someone is needed for taking care of you, then I suggest that you should marry. Because your mind is always haunting you with

Namastey Swamiji and Happy Onam. Thanks for the guidance. Prahlada charitram inspires me a lot. My child is 15yrs and can recite 18 chapters of the Bhagvat Gita and right from the age of 9yrs he used accompany me of various Bhagavat Gita lectures in English. In those days he seldom understood anything that was told in the lecture. we started learning to chant the slokas from the Bhagvat Giita when my child was just about 5 years old. By God’s grace he participated in various chanting competition and won several prizes. Then he used to chant 1 chapter daily before he went to school. Those practice are coming handy now. We are not only able to understand the meaning of the sloka but are trying our best to apply in our life. He does Sandyavandanam twice a day without fail. He too is inspired by your lectures. 2010 year being a Bhagavatam Year, he has started reading Srimad Bhagavatam and has finished upto 3rd Skandam. I and also reading Srimad Bhagavatam. I am about to complete

Swamiji:

Dear Sharada, Only great mothers will have great children. When you practice and guide they will ever follow you. Listen to the commentaries on Bhagavatam and explain to your son. He will grow like sun in his life. Please extend my loving regards to him. Hari Om!
