What do you mean by do not impress the world? If not how can anyone make a living? What do you mean by do not do which ends here with ur death? So that means you dont eat sleep or have a family?Those things end here with ur death arent they? What follows after you die? As far as we all know nothing,you are dead and burnt into Ashes. Do you remember your past lives?If not how do you believe you had one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as we all know nothing,you are dead and burnt into Ashes. Do you remember your past lives?If not how do you believe you had one? dear soul i am happy to be at ur service to share with u the knowledge i learned from the divine personalities. but before that i need u to have belief in my words otherwise there is no point in entering into this questionare....! 1.most of the things we do is done out of fear like what others think of us if we don't do this....if ur happiness is assoiated with others then u can't be happy .There are so many people whom u need to impress for ur happiness.just as this proverb: tell to bite frog is angry,ask to leave snake is angry 2.what ever job u take up for living follow its rules and do it to ur best.for ex:if u are in marketing it is important to dress up and talk sweet to impress people as its the basic principle of that job but its not necessary to follow high class standards to live life.mahatma gandhi wore just a piece of cloth where ever he went he didn't care to impess others but followed that which made him happier. 3.no matter how many desires you fulfill they still arise.king yayathi has under gone two youths in his life and yet wasn't satisfied and wanted more....how much ever luxuries you possess they all end here....put ur energy to that which comes with you....after death and that is your virtues. how much ever u develop desire towards god that much desire follows ur next birth. 4.eating,sleeping and having family life has been going on from enormous births which can explain the poor,the rich,healthy and sick people around.maintaing body is necessary but not soul purpose of life.it is to get rid of birth and death which is the only purpose of human life. 5.i would suggest u read this e-book (free)available at swami sivananda homepage. he explained very well about reincarnation. thank you. -hare krishna!

This isn't towards you but everyone. I believe we shouldn't say hare krishna has a greeting/followup b/c it is a sacred mantra and one says it in private not public. Do any diksa-disciples say their mantras in public? This mantra is of the same category almost. Most of all, we shouldn't go yelling, or screaming out the name in some public area trying to get people to chant. Do we take our sacred deities to some public area and convince people to worship it!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 The mahamantra has saved me from serious depression and wasting what's left of my life in meaningless sense gratification. The 'Dark Night of the Soul' you are experience could turn to the very dawn of your spiritual awakening. Turn to the Lord in your heart. He is infinitely kind.
