Here is a preview: LESSONS FROM BHAGAVAD GITA – 1 As taught by Parama Pujya Sri Swamiji Compiled by: Swami Dattananda Bhakti Mala, January 1992 God may visit us at any time in any guise. A householder will keep his house clean and keep everything ready for a visit of an important guest. In the same way, a devotee of God makes himself pure in thought, word and deed and gets ready to receive his life. He frees himself from the shackles of evil habits and cultivates good qualities. Thus he remains ever vigilant not to miss the divine grace. However intelligent one may be, if one is not vigilant, one is easily knocked out of his path by the mire of delusion. The senses are so powerful as to draw away the mind from his chosen divine ideal. Therefore, night and day, at all times and under all circumstances, vigilance is necessary to preserve the mind from lapsing into impurities. The devotee therefore, remembering always the key word ‘vigilance’, should engage himself in practices to discipline his mind and keep it always pure and sublime.
