Swamiji, I am a 22 year old pursuing higher education. My question is that what are some of the legitimate pleasures that one should enjoy in student life ? Engaging in what kind of activities, will pave the way for supreme realisation later in life ? Is it important to have social interaction, or will it just be a cause of entanglement? Sorry for this very vague question. I think I want to be engaged with society, but not in a frivolous way, rather in a way that would promote spiritual development also. What is the way for this ?

Dear Arunji, Practise Pranayama (deep breathing exercises, chanting very long AUM 11 times and keep mind in deep silence. I can gurantee you that you will be transformed divinely. When you practise as I said, you will be properly guided by God through your inner guidance. HariOm!

Dear Guru Ji, This is the reply to suggestion for my earlier message. You suggested me to expand our sat-sang or company or truth. I tried to teach the children in the neighborhood that if we have sadhakam with sahana we can learn anything and everything on our own. But now when they see me they all try to avoid me. So I restricted myself with my family. My children have already published an international paper on metallurgy. To find this paper you may Google with the text “Aishwarya S ijser”. There you will find her paper as 18th or you may search with the text Aishwarya. To go to the detailed text press on the relevant link appear there. This message is only for your eyes. I think it is better not to publish this message. Please send me the reply to my mail id if you have to tell me or advice me something to improve our ways. I also run a class but as my classes based on hard work no one comes to my class. As I am not interested in earning but learning alone, I continue with one or two poor students come to me. In fact literally I pay from my pocket to run my institute. I have done engineering in both metallurgy and software, done MBA and learned Ayurveda from Ashtanga Hrudaya and Sahasra yogam. I have specialized in sookshma chikilsa through experience. My treatment is only effective on my body as nobody has trust in me I mean even my own family members. I learned it during my tenure with an Ayurvedic company of which I was the all in all in charge. I am able to accept “Lokame tharawadu” concept. I hated my own to merge them into the absolute. So all are my parents, brothers, sisters and children. I am heading towards Nivruthi so no need of a wife now (Just to clarify your doubt raised in your mind). I only need the Absolute to do anything. I do not worry about the result (Karma phal) or reward (Prathi phal). I do not consider my self as the cause (hetu) of the result as well. Still I continue to work to earn my bread without being in inaction. I am happy with whatever I get accidentally in return. Even if I don’t get anything I go hungry happily considering it as God’s will. Hope I did not waste your time. Lot many things I learned from your morning discourse. Thanking you with regards to all, Sureshkumar Puthiyedath Trainer at ECM (English Club Mala) Everything is easy management if it I begin with ME first.

Dear Sureshji, As long as you live at the level of head, you can not celebrate life. So, live at the level of heart, every one will come to you. HariOm!

Thanking you. Pranamam.

i always heard that expectations are reasons for grief, and its true. But how can avoid our own expectations, for example when marry we expect a responsible spouse, but sometimes it go wrong, like wise when we do something help to a person we expect a word of thanks, but nothing will happen, that person will go as if nothing was done by our side, what to do in this situation

Swamiji:

Dear Sandeepji, Our Rishis never teach any thing negative, so they never told us not to expect. But one should develop expectation on one’s own performance. If you practise meditation regularly, you can see transformation of expectation to acceptance and guidance. Where there is acceptance and guidance there alone one

Posted by SANDEEP V KESAV on September 22, 2012

Swamiji:

Dear Sandeepji, When you give undue importance to expectations from others, you will be disappointed. Because it is impossible for any one to live according to the expectations of others. If you are intelligent, as you get disappointed a number of times, you will gradually develop a balanced mind that

swamiji, if the divinity is in everything,then why krishna uses superlatives in bagavatgeeta like i am the best of everything? regards sanal

Swamiji:

Dear Sanalji, Geetha is a wonderful mind management text that understands the human mind and its tendencies perfectly. When Krishna says, “See Me in Holy Ganga”, your mind understands its magnificence. If Krishna says that “I am in the drainage water”, as a beginner, how will you take it? Understand,
