Renounce all confusing actions and all depressing places. Wow ! Now that's piece of a practical advice - renounce all confusing actions and all depressing places.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 isn't that a great verse nanda? it is finally sinking in -- it is hard to put in a lot of sadhana time if my life is a disorganized mess! confusing actions could be both my own confusing actions, or even others. for myself, confusing actions would be useless acts, or, acts that conflict with my belief in spiritual principles. align the personal life with the higher awareness. depressing places are places where people sit around without purpose, only serving their immediate impulses. any place like that within my own heart is also a depressing place i recounce. , "Nanda" <chandimaakijai> wrote: > Dear All, > I am filling in for Kalia for the next coupla days - due to > hurricane warning, the entire island of Barbados does not have > electricity. > > Here is sending a prayer for the safety of our beloved Kalia > and the people of Barbados. > > Verse 175 says : By means of recitation one attains to victory, > one attains to infinite fruits.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Nanda, I do hope Kalia wil be OK. This verse contrasts the riches to be attained from spiritual attainment, especially with regard to the Guru Gita, against all of the things of the samsara that create confusion and depression within. Confusion and depression are inner states created by selfish attachment, or desire. Confusion results from desire and attachment, and depression from the inability to attain the objects of desire. Any activity, whether internal or external, that creates or perpetuates desire and attachment is a confusing one. Any place that perpetuates these things without satisfaction creates depression. Anyone embarked on the path of light must learn to discriminate between that which, as Swamiji says, furthers progress toward their goal, and that which does not. This verse tells us to renounce those that do not. Depression and confusion reside only in the mind. Please help me, Dear Mother, to find it within me to renounce all attachment to confusing actions and depressing places. Jai Maa!

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 This is nice steve. Even those thought that keep bombarding us can bee seen as place of confusion. Swamiji says Durga rids us of the durgam. See how the universe helps us when we are opened to receive, this verse comes today on Ashtami when were are told by dear Nanda that part of today's menu we can chant any mantra for Durga (Navaratri Ashtami).
