Hari Om Swamiji Thank you very much for your reply. I am a cancer patient, but not bothering about my illness. Going on with faith & courage. Used to do meditation, nama japam & reading books. I have no problems which upsets me. But, nowadays, when I sit a little bit free I start to think about death. I fear whether it lead me to do anything wrong. My family consists of my husband & one son(working) and both of them are so loving & caring. Swamiji, please advise me how can I come out of this situation. I know this is not a spiritual question. But Iam sure your words will give me relief.

Swamiji:

Dear Chandrikaji, I really appreciate your courage and positive attitude. It has created a positive environment for you amidst such a physically and mentally challenging situation. Understand, as long as you identify yourself as a body, you will have fear of death. So, meditate regularly and engage in creative activities

Dear Swamiji I am studying in 12th std. after plus two i want to do B.Sc, M.Sc (maybe Ph.D also) and then eventually go into research jobs. But my parents are forcing me to go into B.tech and then do MBA. i tried to convince them many times about my interest in research. But they are saying excuses like ‘there is no job safety’, ‘it is risky’ , ‘you will get to nowhere’ , ‘there is no value for it’ etc. Swamiji what should i do? how should i remove such orthodox beliefs from their mind? there are enough opportunities after B.Sc and M.Sc in research, provided i’m a good student(good grades). i told them i will work hard but they are not listening..please tell me a way swamiji?

Swamiji:

Dear Rohit, If you can not convince others, it is because of your past performance and lack of effective communication. Even after B.Tech you can go for M.Tech and Ph.D. (Remember, your mind is so powerful that it can convert any difficulty into simplicity). So, if you are very sure

I would like to know what has been told about eating non vegetarian food in our ancient scripts?

Posted by Smitha on October 5, 2012

Swamiji:

Dear Smithaji, If you are interested in spiritual progress then better avoid non veg because it affects one’s own mind negatively, than the vegetarian food.If you read Gita 7 th chapter 9,8 and 10th slokas you will get the suggestions given by Lord Krishna . HariOm!

Hari Om Swamiji I just want to clarify that after the death of our close relatives (blood relation), cant we lit the lamp in the morning & evening for 15 days. Is there any fact in saying that during these 15 days we have to avoid nama japam & “sandhya deepam” etc. Hari Om

Posted by Chandrika N Kumar on October 5, 2012

Swamiji:

Dear Chandrikaji, It is all unnecessary practices. Actually you should read Holy Texts and chant Nama Japam during those days to bring back peacefulness. HariOm!

Swamiji:

Please ask you question clearly, Thank you, HariOm!

Pranams thank you very much. usually it is my nature to dispose off old items . i dont like to keep old and shabby things as when i see them i feel sad . so in the same way when i saw these photos i felt i should do some thing about it. i think i can put them in a river or sea . i have got more pictures in my swami room. actually people at home were not in agreement with this . they think it is inauspicious and wrong to remove all old and faded photos. i hope i am not wrong.

Swamiji:

Dear Mallikaji, I tell you, dispose off your unwanted past (memories), which creates all worries and regret. Every thing else is secondary. HariOm!

Swamiji Pranamam, My daughter is happy about your message for her.She has assured me that she would practice it daily. Thanking you . Pranamam.

Swamiji:

Dear Rekhaji, Let her inspire her friends too. Let this become a spark in all minds. HariOm!

Pranamam Swamiji, I was listening to your Bhagavata Saptaham. You had mentioned that we need to prepare ourselves to accept death by leaving the attachment to the body. People who die in accidents etc are not prepared for the same and hence they become “prethatma”. We cannot decide the way we die. Is there any solution for this? If we practice and live in a spiritual way will it help us not be attached to the body however we die?

Posted by Deepa on October 3, 2012

Swamiji:

Dear Deepaji, Only when you practise meditation you can understand death is nothing but the changes happening to the body, not to the mind. If some one dies in an accident understand, accident can destroy only the body, not the mind. Such a mind will come back (refer Gita 2nd

Swamiji what is Athma , jeeva ,punar janma ?

Posted by SeetharamaBallullaya on October 3, 2012

Swamiji:

When you understand that you the conscious mind (called Jivatma) is the part of infinite conscious intelligence(Paramatma) and experience the oneness of both, such a mind is free from rebirth. Rebirth is the repetition of same experience which gives you fear, sorrow and sufferings. HariOm!
