What is Liberation?

What is Liberation?

Simply recognise all the virtues you appreciate in others and realise that they are present in you in seed form. You only have to nurture them.

===========================

What is Liberation?

Liberation means, that you have finally found rest (and this happens when you are finally free from all your desires and cravings).

When the feeling dawns from deep within, 'I am content, I do not want anything', and you have fulfilled all your duties and responsibilities, then you are liberated.

Liberation is freedom from desires; liberation is the total contentment that you get when you fulfill all that you had to.

Liberation is soaking oneself completely in devotion to the Divine. When this realization dawns on you, 'I am not the body, I am the eternal spirit. This body will perish but I will remain here forever', then that is liberation.

===========================

The divinity is everywhere but it is dormant, and pooja (prayer) is the process to awaken it. Anyone who is in touch with the divinity has no dearth of any sort.

Q: I start to do a lot of things, but I don’t get to complete. Can you tell me a way how can I improve the situation?

Guruji : If you want to do, you can do anything. It has to come from within. With the determination, ‘I will do this job, and I will see to it that it gets completed’. This commitment from within will help you, and get you through. Got it? Nobody can do the job other than you.

So, take up with small things and follow it through, and then you will get the confidence. That prepares you to take up big tasks. You know, why do you drop things? Because you think they are not important. But there is nothing important or unimportant in life, everything has importance. So, even if something looks unimportant, you say, “I want to finish it, and I will finish it”. Then you will be able to enhance your commitment.

===========================

Q: How can I cope with the anger that comes with seeing so much injustice to so many people?

Guruji : Don’t just feel the anger. Take action. You don’t need to lose your balance of mind. Rather, you should respond. This is a skill. Be calm, and united in yoga. That is the message of the Bhagavad Gita.
