Swamiji sorry that if my question was not clear. Actually when we talk about srishti’s different characters, it include sanskrit word “vairagya” also. I understood that it is not the same word meaning “revenge” ,but this word indicate some other state. I was asking for that meaning. Hari Om!

Posted by Meenu Venugopal on January 28, 2016

Swamiji:

Vairagya does not mean revenge. It is derived from vi (without) + raga (passion). It refers to an inner state of dispassion or non- attachment and is shown as a path to moksha since it is beyond likes and dislikes. Hari Om.

Revered Swamiji, Namaskaram! Listeners like me who are listening to Swamiji,s discourse of Bhagavad Gita on TV must be very grateful to Swamiji because they get clarity of the subject which is not available through any other source either by reading commentary in books or by listening to the discourses of others. Bhagavad Gita is not a book to be worshipped in Pooja Room but it is a sastra to be understood and assimilated thoroughly by every seeker. But it is not possible to understand the cream of the advice of Bhagavan because the language Sanskrit is not familiar to all the aspirants. Here comes the importance of a Sadguru who is free from religious rituals and other customs prevalent in society. It is a pitiable fact that many of the Hindu Children and others are baffled at the questions of the followers of other religions that why Hindus are having so many Gods and Goddesses. Unless the Hindus are not properly rooted in the principles of Hinduism it is not easy to reply to the question. No two people are born with the same traits. There will be variations of three Gunas (Satwa, Rajas and Thamas) in each individual, otherwise known as Vasanas. It is a fact that the interests and likes and dislikes in individuals vary one another. Hence it is difficult for every body to adore and worship one and the same idol. It is like people selecting different designs and shapes of gold ornaments available in jewellery shop. Every individual selects different designs which is quite attractive to that person even though all the ornaments are gold and gold alone. This example was given by none other than Swami Chinmayananda. In the same way it is very difficult to impose only one figure as God on everybody because Hinduism was not founded by a single messenger of God. Gradually one will realise that the idol that he is worshipping alone is not God but he is there in all idols. I request Swamiji to please correct if there is any mistake in the above mentioned ideas. Hariom!

Swamiji:

You are absolutely right. Thanks for the input. Hari Om.

Hari om, First time in mylife I am seeing a person like you interacting with people and clearing their doubts with FAQ. Thanks for your great mind to spend your time with us. If one dies in this country why all karmas done by males only.I have two daughters and I don’t like to do these things by others instead of their own children. What is meant by Heaven&Hell. Thank you once again.

Swamiji:

There is nothing wrong in women doing these rituals. There is no Scriptural rule against women. During olden days, women were exempted from many such duties owing to their convenience. Recently we have seen Mallika Sarabhai doing the final rites for her mother, right? Heaven and Hell refer to happy

Pranam swami, if a strong desire like sex is aroused or implanted in our mind , we should try to fulfil that desire or shun it by concentrating on God? Though we concentrate wouldn’t that desire arise again? But why should we ignore that desire because God also had this eecha shakti ?

Posted by Sooraj on January 27, 2016

Swamiji:

Sex is part of nature and all beings in creation. But dwelling your mind in those thoughts or entertaining such imaginations is the actual reason behind such excessive desires. Only idle minds fall prey to it. When you have a passion and engage creatively in new things, you are not

Hariom swamiji. I would like to know what is the meaning of swami. Why hindus are lighting lamps at their homes during sunsets. Why hindus are saying do not touch the mensured persons while we are going before temple.

Posted by Manju on January 27, 2016

Swamiji:

Swami is a salutation (to an Acharya) indicating respect. Sunset affects our minds bringing a dullness and melancholy. Lighting lamps is for the removal of darkness representing knowledge removing ignorance. It brings auspiciousness to the atmosphere. HariOm!

Swamiji, aap ne bola Bodh is a vast see, our small bodhas held by praan away. Means not only bodh but a second thing praan also exist above this vast sea of bodh! Am I correct? Then which is the heat(sunrays) make the vast bodh to evaporate?

Posted by Sivajeeva Kumar on January 27, 2016

Swamiji:

The infinite awareness should be looked upon as an ocean which is undisturbed in its core. Wind stimulates the formation of a wave on its surface, but eventually the wave dissolves back into the ocean. Similarly, Prana or life energy binds with infinite consciousness to create individual minds. They arise

Swamiji… when we sleep we can’t feel anything.. others negative words , pain etc… then at that time what happen in mind…mind evide pokunnu? mind engane unarnnu varunnu….

Posted by Lovely on January 27, 2016

Swamiji:

Mind is always associated with life energy or prana. In wakefulness, the mind is predominantly tied to the mukhya prana, which gives sensitivity to external and internal stimulus. in sleep, the association is predominantly with apana and vyana pranas and weakly with samana and udhana prana. That is why your

Most Respected Swamiji Since I am alone at home it is difficult to reach far away Office in time .( for the time being I am posted at an extension Office near to home , but it is for one or two months only) Have to wake up very early and prepare food and all then to travel 60 Kms. More over I will miss Japa and Dhyana and prayer regularly. I have got three years service. I am planning to take VRS and assist duties (if they give me a chance to do) voluntarily at nearby Balasramam” where more than 50 boy inmates . I shall contribute some thing in accordance with my financial position also . In this way I shall over come my loneliness I think. Very kind enough to give suggestions and directions Pranamanagalode Shajkumar

Posted by Shajkumar on January 27, 2016

Swamiji:

Congratulations on a successful professional life. More importantly congratulations on having the vision to make yourself useful to the society. May the little boys in the Balasadan benefit from your noble presence and help. Bhagavan bless you abundantly. Hari Om.

Pranamam Swamiji Swamiji… all the theories that was discovered in science…was told by Sri Krishna in Geeta. Especially in the 2nd and 13th chapter, those can be related with the Einstein theories such as String theory..theory of relativity.. energy mass law..law of conservation of energy everything.. Swamiji this is my suggestion.. why don’t you publish a book which relates our Modern Science and Bhagavath Geeta and Vedanta… that would be really scientific.. with love and respect

Posted by Govind Nath on January 26, 2016

Swamiji:

We are definitely doing it. Two in the series have already been published. “BEYOND SCIENCE, THE WORLD IN YOU” and “DARWIN TO DASAVATHARA”. You can obtain copies from the office or at Swamiji’s programme venues. Hari Om.

Dear Swamiji, How to develop intellectual curiosity? I mean the desire to learn & study. Ashwin

Posted by Ashwin on January 26, 2016

Swamiji:

Real focus comes from purpose. Question is, why do you desire to learn and study ? Once you know that, then find out what is stopping you from attaining your purpose. It is that weakness you will have to overcome to walk to your goal. Hari Om.
