Those whose karmas are good have this firm belief, ‘God is with me at all times. My Gurudev is with me, and I have all the inner strength that I need’
======================
When you are considering yourself a Saadhak, don't compare yourself with anyone. Consider yourself incomparable. Everyone should consider themselves incomparable. When we compare ourselves with others we start looking outwards, and then we get tangled in cravings and aversions and lose ourselves in the mess.
======================
Q: How should a disciple be with the Guru so that he can understand the Guru completely and receive the knowledge from the Guru?
Guruji : By being natural (sahajta). You should be with a guru the same way as you are with your close ones; i.e. with naturalness.
=====================
Q: Guruji, in the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna has spoken about Ananya sharan bhaava (having a sense of total surrender to the Lord). Please speak a bit more about this. Also please explain what is meant by Gopi bhaava.
Guruji : Gopi bhaava is a feeling of innocence and deep love. The word Gopi means those who have soaked and drank the knowledge so completely and totally that nothing else remains. When one is so deeply immersed in knowledge, then only love remains. So in such a deep and heightened state, it is that intense love that gets expressed. When such a beautiful and intense feeling of love dawns in life; then that is said to be ‘Gopi bhaava’.
=======================
‘I am so dear to the Divine’, and ‘The Divine is here, right now’, these are the two things to remember.
Om Namah Shivay
