Question:Who succeeds in life? and similar Questions...?”

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

Who succeeds in life?

 

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji:

 

The one who loves life succeeds in life.

_

What is the surest way to know the Creator's purpose for my role having been

born as a human being?

 

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji:

 

You have now started thinking ‘What is the purpose of my Creation.’ That is the

very purpose of Lord’s Creation.

____

What is the purpose of life?

 

Sri Sri Swamiji:

 

The true purpose of life is to realize the Supreme Self.

---------------

Every birth has a purpose, how do I discover that purpose apart from the

liberation of life. Kindly explain.

 

Sri Sri Swamiji:

 

Whatever you are doing right now will automatically take you to the very purpose

of life. You need not set out to explicitly find that.

____

Why is human life so painful? Is it because of Kali Yuga or because of our

Karma?

 

Sri Sri Swamiji:

 

When a child is ill, the mother gives medicines to it. The child initially

refuses to take the medicine owing to its bitterness. For a moment, the mother

diverts the attention of the child through some play. Then again, the mother

tries to feed the medicine. The

mother will continue to do so, without giving up, until the child takes the

medicine completely, wouldn’t she?

 

In the same way, God gives us sufferings to realize that the state that you live

in is not your true state. When the sufferings become unbearable, he distracts

you by giving you a sigh of relief. However

it continues to trouble you and will not leave you until you realize your true

nature which is the Self. The simplest way towards this goal is by chanting the

Mahamantra

--------------------

Who is God? Where is God?

 

Sri Sri Swamiji:

 

The absolute pure consciousness is God. He is within you and He is

all-pervading; omnipresent. There are no two things in this world. He alone

exists and no body else.

_____

Why has God created us?

 

Sri Sri Swamiji:

 

God has created us to find answer to that very question

---------------------

What is the secret of success in life?

 

Sri Sri Swamiji:

 

Staunch faith in God and chanting His Eternal Name together is the secret of

success.

---------------------

I want to have a Sadguru - but Who? When? Where? Who should I choose as my

Sadguru?

 

Sri Sri Swamiji:

 

The human life is said to be the greatest gift of God. In this life, getting the

quest for God and the need for a Sadguru is indeed even more rare. When your

quest is real, the Lord will automatically bless you with a Sadguru at the right

moment. Until then, keep chanting the Mahamantra constantly, taking the Almighty

as your Guru. You will soon be blessed with a guru.
