Guest guest Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Question from Steve Connor: When speaking with people who are not consciously interested in spirituality, or, the interchange of words is of a day-to-day type, how does one speak respectfully about Her -- using what names, or frames of reference? Peace, thank you again for your instruction. Swamiji's response: Be efficient in your karma. Get it done perfectly and quickly, so you can go back to speaking about Her, rather than going back to rectify foolish errors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 That is very helpful ... here is a related question: When the social context is both protracted [5-8 hours or more] and mundane -- during that period -- can I somehow speak about Her without speaking about Her, iow, keep her on the forefront of my mind, for the hours I am required to manifest behavior both external and interpersonal. Is it possible to be that strong, to function properly, interacting with people as one's work requires? If this is possible, how would that spiritual strength or skill develop? Blessings and fine health to you, Steve , "Nanda" <chandimaakijai wrote: > > Question from Steve Connor: > When speaking with people who are not consciously interested in > spirituality, or, the interchange of words is of a day-to-day type, how > does one speak respectfully about Her -- using what names, or frames of > reference?
