Embarking on a Journey of Wisdom and Liberation

Dear Valued Readers,

As we traverse the path of knowledge and self-discovery, I extend a warm welcome to both our cherished followers and those who have recently arrived in our virtual sanctuary. At the heart of this blog lies a profound mission: to illuminate the transformative brilliance of Advaita Vedanta, the pinnacle of intellectual and spiritual evolution.

In a world often clouded by superstitions, myths, and dogmatic beliefs, my purpose is to guide you towards a higher understanding. Together, we will journey away from arcane rituals and practices that bind, and instead, embrace the liberating wisdom of Advaita Vedanta. This ancient philosophy offers a gateway to boundless liberation and pure bliss, free from the confines of misguided practices.

Through the timeless teachings of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita, the Upanishads, and the Brahma Sutras, I strive to empower you. My aim is not mere recitation, but a deep internalisation of these teachings, leading to fearlessness, self-confidence, excellent health, and prosperity. Together, we’ll cultivate a positive mindset that radiates throughout all aspects of life.

Excitingly, I am delighted to introduce a new chapter in our journey – the launch of our Newsletter series. This venture is for those who seek truth beyond the realm of dualistic beliefs and rituals. If you are ready to immerse yourself in the rational philosophy passed down through millennia, I invite you to join us.

STOP! Please read this post or watch the video in it before proceeding to the next paragraph: Beyond Belief and Ideology: Vedanta’s Perspective on Human Understanding

Please read this post and/or watch the video in it before continuing. It is because you will understand the direction in which the new newsletter series will be going. It will be purely Advaita Vedanta and will never discuss rites, rituals, or any other such factor that creates the ‘my god and your god’ or them and us’ issues.

Now, if you are a serious seeker, and after reading the post ‘Beyond Belief and Ideology: Vedanta’s Perspective on Human Understanding‘, and if you would like to join, please express your interest by signing up for the newsletter. Simply enter your name and email ID in the box below. Please note that even if you are already subscribed to my main blog but have not signed up for the new newsletter series, you will not be added to the new mailing list. I will once again announce when the first Newsletter is ready, but for now, whoever expresses their interest in joining it will be demonstrating their participation in the journey, and that will truly add to my motivation.

Thank you for being part of this enlightening voyage. Let us continue to explore, learn, and evolve, as we uncover the profound truths that lead to a life of liberation, purpose, and unending bliss.

In wisdom and unity,

Jai Shri Krishna

This chapter of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita has only 20 Shlokas which teach devotees how to worship Bhagavan Krishna and meditate upon His teachings. Bhagavan Krishna explains to Arjuna the things one could do in order to become dear to Him. He says that no one is repulsive or dear to Him. It is left to the seeker to interpret this and follow the steps taught in this chapter and get closer to the Supreme Bhagavan Krishna.

Bhagavan said: SBG 9:29
I am the same to all living beings. There is no one who is repulsive or dear to Me. But those who worship Me with devotion are in Me and I too am in them.

Bhagavan Krishna is not affected by anyone or anything. However, the truth is that people who are sincerely devoted to Him, offer complete Sharanaagati before Him and follow His teachings, are always confident about themselves. This makes them stronger and more efficient in whatever they do. It’s like in the case of children who have doting parents. Children who receive a lot of love, attention, protection and guidance from their father, mother or both, usually excel in everything.

In the pursuit of leading a purposeful and fulfilling life, we often encounter the obstacle of laziness that hampers our progress. The teachings of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita provide profound insights on how to combat this inertia and embrace a life of action and purpose. As per the Srimad Bhagavad Gita, it is essential to treat pleasure and pain, gain and loss, victory and defeat alike when engaging in life’s battles.

The verses guide us to recognise the importance of action over inaction, and emphasise the significance of selfless dedication to our duties. By performing our tasks as offerings to the Supreme Bhagavan Krishna and releasing all attachment to outcomes, we become untouched by sin, just like a lotus leaf remains unaffected by water.

Through these teachings, we learn to rise above the dualities of the material world and work for the welfare of all living beings, leading us towards liberation and absorption in the Divine. So, let us embark on a journey of self-discovery, drawing inspiration from the Srimad Bhagavad Gita, and conquering laziness to attain true glory and purpose in life.
