SURRENDER OR SHARNAGATI

We have to surrender to God. Sharanagati or Surrender means to do nothing. But since eternity we are used to doing everything so to come the state of doing nothing, we have to do a lot - and the name of this is Sadhana.We have to ultimately reach a stage where God does everything and surrender completely to Him.

SELFLESS DIVINE LOVE

The most invaluable treasure attainable in the human form is Selfless Divine Love. This Divine love is the culmination of all spiritual knowledge. It is experienced not through the intellect, but through the heart. When our heart melts for our Beloved Lord, an intense longing for His Divine Vision develops. This cleanses the mirror of the mind and destroys its negativities. The consciousness is united with God in love, and the devotee experiences perfect Bliss.

DETACHMENT AND ATTACHMENT

Detachment from the world and attachment to God are done by the mind alone.The mind alone is the cause of bondage and liberation.It is your mind alone which is your greatest enemy. True detachment implies the absence of attachment and aversion towards anyone in the material world. One should constantly attach his mind to Shree Krishna, His Names, His Forms, His Qualities, Pastimes, Divine abodes and His Devotees.

KUSANG

The goal of popularity and prestige is also extreme kusang. Often what happens is that a devotee, upon gaining some knowledge and experience, goes around bragging amongst people and gradually assumes a form of self-pride and self-superiority, and as a result of that he loses the greatest treasure, 'humility' as a devotee. In addition to that, such casual behavior only strengthens and further deepens the desire for greatness and glory.

OUR DESIRES

Our desires have kept us discontented since endless lifetimes. Now, let the desires remain discontented, as we put them aside. "I want this and this…." Due to our desires, we have been beggars since eternity. Now let's learn to give, and walk the path of Divine love.

ALWAYS REMEMBER

You all have to keep yourself away from damaging thoughts and bad associations, they are: looking to another person's fault,criticizing other devotees,desire for popularity,disappointment in devotion,laziness in doing devotions,and friendliness with such worldly people whose association may spoil your devotional feelings.

DIVINE LOVE

Your ultimate goal is the attainment of divine love of Shri Krishna and his eternal service.This divine love can be attained only through the grace of your Guru. The grace of your Guru will be attained upon complete purification of the heart. The purification of the heart is only possible through devotional practice as instructed by your Guru.

PRANDHAN JEEVAN KUNJ BIHARI

He praneshwar Kunjbihari Shree Krishna Tum hi mere Jeevan Sarvasva ho. Humhara tumhara yah sambandh sada se hai evam sada rahega ( Agyantavash me iss sambandh ko bhul gaya). Tum chahe mera alingan karke mujhe apne gale se lagate hue, meri anadi kal ki iccha purna karo, chahe udaseen banker muje tadpate raho, chahe pairo se thokar mar-markar mera sarvatha parityag kar do. Praneshwar ! Tumhe jis-jis prakar se bhi Sukh mile, vahi karo me tumhari har iccha me prasan rahunga. Shree Kripaluji Kehte hai ki Nishkam Prem ka swaroop hi yahi hai ki apni icchao ko na dekhte hue, Priyatam ki prasanta me hi prasan raha jai. Apne swarth ke liye Priyatam se badla pane ki Bhavna se Prem karna vyavhar jagat ka natkiya Vyapar hai.

MAHAPURUSH

Bhagwan ko janne ke liye Shotriya Brahmanistha Mahapurush ki sharan me jana hoga, arthat jo shastro, Vedo ka gyata bhi ho aur Bhagwatprapti bhi kar chukka ho. Jo humko samja sake, tatvagyan de sake – Bhagwan kya hai ? Jeev kya hai ? Maya kya hai ? Bhagwadprapti kaise hogi ? Sansar ka Sukh kaisa hai ? Man kya hai ? Buddhi kya hai ?

SPIRITUAL GEMS BY SHREE MAHARAJJI

Avoid fault finding etc. These are impediments in your devotional practice.By constant thinking about the faults of others, your intellect gradually gets contaminated by these faults.Finding faults in others is a definite proof that you yourself have that faults.
