Spirituality first addresses the emotional aspect of mind’s crisis. But gradually it goes deeper and enfolds the intelligence, whose wont is ever to seek enlightenment. Once the intelligence is illumined, the mind’s turmoil subsides.

This much-needed alliance between the mind and intelligence does not usually take place for all. Intelligence, if at all, comes to play much later. Till then, mind rules the scene; and conflict, distress and helplessness inevitably result, as in the case of Arjuna in Kurukshetra.

The goal of Spirituality is to make us master of the world by making us master of our own mind and intelligence.

‘Sarva-bhoota-hite-rataah’ Gita’s message on ‘Striving for Welfare of All’ (01 to 03 Sep -2024)

In an engaging three-day discourse series held at SIRD’s Satsang Hall, Poojya Swamiji, in his unique and inimitable style, emphasized the profound message of the Bhagavad Gita: “Be devoted to the welfare of all.” Swamiji vividly illustrated how the illustrious warrior Arjuna faltered on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, highlighting that it was a constricted and selfish vision that rendered him weak. Swamiji elaborated that, in reality, nothing in our lives is truly individualistic except the body. We are intricately interconnected with everyone and everything in this world. The inner presence that animates all bodies is universal and eternal. When we transcend individual feelings, we naturally expand to embrace a more all-pervading awareness. As the doubts and desires of the mind dissolve through the Knowledge of Supreme Truth, the mind discovers its inherent contentment and fullness. However, Swamiji stressed that this journey should not end there. Life becomes truly glorious only when we incorporate a genuine concern for the welfare of others.

The entire spiritual pursuit and perfection rest upon the fusion of the emotional mind with the rational intelligence. For a discriminating thinker, the whole subject of spiritual wisdom and attainment is thus a pursuit and achievement of the intelligence and mind. This subtle integration clinches the issue. Make no mistake about it.

Tattva-manana, truthful-introspection, is the only way to purify, sublimate and enrich the mind, to make it exclusively devoted to the Self and its realization.

Worldly interactions do not appear to be divine or sublime only because the seeker regards the world as different from God or the Supreme. As long as this difference prevails, conflicts will torment the seeker’s mind distancing him from the Supreme.

A true seeker must outlive this bheda-buddhi (differential notion) the mind inherently clings to, and install in its place the Knowledge of all-fold divinity. Then the world interactions will themselves bring the touch of divinity, instead of distancing the seeker from the Supreme. This is the secret of devotional wholesomeness.

The mind, remaining entangled in plural and divisive notions, cannot find its peace and poise. Once given to the exclusive contemplation of the Supreme as the only source and support of all the varieties, the mind starts rejoicing in this singular wholesome attitude and vision. This transformation does not alter the state of things anywhere outside. The world continues to be what it was. The interactions with it also proceed as earlier, but with one marked difference: None of the objects or interactions can now dislodge the mind from its poise, stability, lightness and expanse.

Whether we are sweeping, washing, cooking, sitting at the computer or working in the office – all the work we should associate with the Lord. How? We should think that today God has given me this work. I will do it with all perfection, with utmost attention and devotion, so that He is pleased with my performance.

Detachment is the call of life at every point. Remember that everything you now have and will further gain is only to be left in the end. There is nothing one can take from here. All relationships, together with whatever acquisitions you strive for, are only to be left behind. Even the body by which and for whose sake every acquisition is sought, is to be discarded. Therefore, be detached now itself. With attachment, life becomes miserable. With detachment, it will be pleasant and fulfilling.

By worshipping God, by thinking about God, by preserving the devotional attitude, you must be able to assimilate everything. You must have a cheerful disposition, depth of vision, loftiness of thoughts, and an all-embracing attitude. If you are not able to generate these, your worship is defective and the purpose of your worship is not being fulfilled. Look into your mind and find out where lies the insufficiency in your devotion. Eliminate the defects and deficiencies.

The sole aim of devotional pursuit is to take the mind of the devotee to that supreme level where it will no longer depend on anything in the external world for its delight, stability and fulfillment.

To be a seeker is to be wholesomely identified with the spiritual Teacher – to be abiding by his words unquestioningly. In fact, all questions and doubts would rule the mind only until this implicit loyalty graces the seeker. The words and the actions of the Teacher are the ultimate confirmation and clarity for the disciple in spiritual seeking and enlightenment."

Attachment of any kind is constricting, painful and binding. But when fostered towards the Supreme Reality, or the Sadguru, its effect is just the reverse. Here comes the relief for those struggling to drop attachment. What they need to do is to shift the focus of attachment, by placing it on their spiritual Teacher who represents the Supreme Reality. Such attachment, instead of binding or tormenting, will only expand and sublimate the mind and heart, leading one to the coveted enlightenment and redemption.
