1. Who am I ?- We are part of the One Existence which men call God, We are divine in our origin and divine in our innermost nature, Our body is mortal; our spirit, which is our true Self, is immortal; our soul, which is the self which thinks and feels and regards itself as 'I', may win its immortality if it becomes the servant of spirit, and not otherwise.

2. Why am I here-- We are here in order to discover what we really are, and to bring into activity all the powers that lie sleeping within us? Since we are, in our true nature, a part of the divine life, we have within our self all the attributes of divinity: infinite love, infinite wisdom, and infinite power. Humanity is still very young, and most of us have hardly begun the immense task of Self-discovery. But we are here to do this very, thing, and we have all the time we need to do it. It is to realize God or self, what ever we may call it. We have come here to make Love to Him, to be bathed in His love and to vibrate His love through the actions that come our way.

We have come here some day to play. Here is a Female here is a Male. She has got all the senses and desire, everything. He has also got the same thing. Both are the same. That is for His play. Male and female are only for the theater, the stage His Divine plays. Body and life bestowed on us by God are to be fully tasted and enjoyed.

This time of the body is temporary. We are actors and we are paid according to our performance. We shall play our part well in the God’s play of love, shaking of desires and obsessions. Our duty is to watch His Play as passive witnesses. Be always in a natural state of Oneness with Him free of all senses of want.

We have sojourned here for relishing His Raas Lila (Tasting of God’s Love). We have come here to have a taste of His Brij Lila, God’ play of Love. Which this world displays. Brij Lila is symbolized by copulation, moving to and fro between the opposite poles like a pendulum, the characteristic of dulity and mental function. It is a stage where we are to enact our respective roles for a stipulated period time.


Just try to Love Him and do your duty. Duty is the first thing. Duty is Karma, work. Our responsibility is to perform our actions with full sincerity and honesty. We must do Karma (activities). There is no knowledge without Karma. We are seeing, hearing, and eating something…. All this is Karma, and this Karma is knowledge.

We go through our daily activities Karma, whatever one does is Karma, Actions, and reactions in the mind lead to one’s activity. Let the fruit of action be decided and bestowed by Him because the result comes from Him. One cannot undertake any work without a pragmatic end in view. So, with attachment one has to do one’s work, although without any desire for the results. No sooner has the work been finished then the attachment evaporates. That should be the mental attitude.


3. What am I to do?- Be like a log of wood in the stream of His will. Love lives, Love work, love duty. Be of good cheer. Only remember God. And do whatever you do in the name of Him. That is enough.

One who can fully relish and utilize the present, without worrying about present, past and future, he or she really enjoy the state of Braijh Lila. His supreme Love. The essential thing about life is to see it and enjoy it as Lila (God’s Play).

We shall follow our desires. Do not force them into a special pattern Eat, drink, do everything, but remember God, Who is inside the body.

To move according to nature is only safe course. Do not go beyond the limitation of the body. If we do not respect it, will it not retaliate? Go about doing everything while remembering Him that is all that is needed.

What then are we to do? We have to brave the world, bear Prarabdh (Unavoidable evolutionary process of one’s life) with fortitude, and do our respective activities without any sense of ego.

Carry on. We have to do our duty. Duty is the first thing. Have patience with the vicissitudes of life, which are tokens of His infinite Love. Don’t restrain, don’t indulge. Be natural, shorn of all inhibitions.

Bear destiny or fate with patience. No restraint, no effort is necessary for Him. Relish His Love and taste the world of nature, with passive remembrance of God.

By doing our duties, which come from His, will we relish His Love and Bliss. We do and enjoy everything as we like but remember Him. We will see nothing will affect us. Try to act our role in the drama on this stage of the world perfectly.

Evaporation of ego, loving submission to God and braving the world of reality as His bounteous expression in our duty. The duty of all human beings is to carry out all activities of life with Him in view. Remember Him. That is enough, more than enough.

World cannot be discarded to become spiritualist. We have come to the world to do our destined works, Karma’s, not to get Him…. As He is already within. We have to do the work for which we are destined.

A vast field of activities is before us. Enjoy them with Him. (Life force) Jiva has everything. We can take meat, fish, and vegetables whatever we like. All are the same. Fasting is not good. Don’t go against your nature. Let our senses and mind do any manner of antics. Let our inner drives led our senses wherever they will. Be a passive spectator of the drama.

We have nothing to do except call to mind that God is within. Do nothing but practice remembering and adhering to Name. Repeat the Name, keep thinking about Him and the rest will be taken care of. Think of God. Keep on remembering God, the seed that has been sown in our heart. It is a wonderful key that makes every door open of its own accord.

We need not to shun the needs of the body. With birth we invited and came with certain desire, lust, passions, and greed. We cannot exist a moment without their help. The senses have an essential role. We shall have to give something to them. If we stop everything, they will revolt.

When the senses are pleased, they will accompany us. Our senses will turn inward in time and will become the internal ladder to help us climb to the plane of Divine Consciousness.

Take sex out of carnal desire and it can be one powerful force that can help you transcend all and experience divine pleasure in true union of not just bodies but all the five senses.* ( will discuss later)

Live, but live in tune with Him. Live beyond the realm of mind. Don’t live in wants, fear, and hopes. Live in Swabhav (Natural State of being in tune with God), in our real Self, which is the only Truth. Be of good cheer and enjoy! If we fail to enjoy ourself here how dare we expect it after death.

Nobody knows how destiny works until the end of life. We shall try to live everyday of our life in such a way that in the end we have the consolation that we have successfully utilized all the days and years with the gifts of the body, mind and Pran (Life breath) bestowed by God on you.

We shall do our duty (remember God). Do our work, and enjoy our days. Whiskey, cigarettes, loves… as we like. Then we will feel within us what no one can sell us, the living God, the true God, Who has created us and loves us.

Aim and purpose of Human Life – the truths it preaches will hold well so long as the human race survives and the laws of nature remain unaltered. There is nothing in religion which cannot be logically explained in terms of the fundamental laws and principles of life, which it discovered as result of its deep study of the eternal and inexorable laws of nature. The religion which is based on the eternal laws of nature is the eternal religion of humanity. It is not the exclusive possession of any particular individual, group, class, caste, creed, or race.

4. What is the use of this life? To attain Mokska- liberation from the cycle of birth, death and rebirth. Birth means a soul entering a body and death is its departure from the Body. The soul itself has neither a beginning nor an end; it is eternal or anadi and ananta. The soul entering a body on this earth or on other planets of the universe performs some actions that is karma.

Karma may enable a soul to attain the eternal bliss or Mokska. On the other hand karma cause endless continuation of the cycle of birth and death of a soul. As you sow so you must you reap. Thus, Karma plays the pivotal role in a pilgrim’s progress towards Mokska; its attainment or the lack of it. In its Karma, the atama is absolutely free and unfettered. A soul charts its own course evasion on uncharted sea. How does an ataman go about it? The 14th mantra of the 23rd chapter of yajurveda gives an appropriate and crystal clear guidance:

Sanshito Rashmina Rathah Sanshiteo Rashmina Hayah Sanshito Apsvapsuja Brahma Sompurogavah.


The horses of the chariot of life must always be well disciplined and well disposed to go at the desired speed. It is though self –control and self – discipline that master of the chariot, atman, and 10 horses, that is indriyas (five sensory and five action organs of the body) perform Karma. The ataman requires Vedic knowledge or Brahma jnyanam to partake of anand and also motivate others to follow the same path.

A good control over the 10 horses or indriyas makes an individual a real Dashrath, a charioteer in complete command of his sensory and action organs. That of course, is the Vedic path leading the ataman to Moksha.


5. We are Borne why ? We have come here for certain work. We shall have to do it. Afterward we shall have to go to our permanent House. By remembering God, we realize Him. That is true work. Work is worship when the sole frame of reference is the soul , the vibrant God’s name within our heart.

Every bit of work is worship. But the moment any kind of work grips our consciousness as the one thing indispensable and is stems the tide of our life, it is invested with the multiple nuances and derives of our ego and lacks spirituality.

Without this human body no other world divinities can taste His Love. In the body of a person resides Supreme Truth Govinda LORD KRISHANA is worshipped as a Paramyogi, a Sannyasi and a wise man. He is also a romantic lover, a shrewd warrior and a benevolent savior – all in one! This may be the reason why the Hindus worship him as the Purnavtar, a total incarnation of God on earth. No other incarnation of God is so much endowed with such diverse qualities as Krishna. All shades and colors of life – mischievous play fullness of a child, flirtatious romance of young man and ultimate maturity of a wise old man – meet in Krishna and they create a wide spectrum of colors, that has been attracting all kinds of artists, dancers, musicians, poets, writers and other creative people. The very meaning of his name Krishna is the element that attracts and pulls. Krishna is a magnetic force.

He is a perfect example of Maha Dhyani-(Greatest Mediator)- who is equally comfortable and fully centered when he is surrounded by his 16000 Pretty Gopis and particularly when he is in the middle of an epic war. He is totally relaxed and playful in all these extreme situations and takes life as a cosmic Leela, an ultimate dance of existence, which the poets have described as Raas. “This word raas is very beautiful: it means the divine celebration, the divine dance. In this interplay of energies, which are Raas, Krishna and his milkmaids cease to be individuals, they move as pure energies.

And this dance of male and female energies together brings deep contentment and bliss; it turns into an outpouring of joy and bliss. Rising from Krishna’s Raas this bliss expands and permeates every fiber of the universe. Although Krishna and his girlfriends are no more with us as people, the moon and the stars under which they danced together are still with us, and so are the trees and the earth and the skies that were once so drunk with the bliss of the raas. Although millennia have passed, the vibes of the maha-raas are still with us. “If someone goes to dance on the grounds where Krishna once danced with his Gopis he can hear the echoes of the Maha- Raas. If someone plays a flute near the hills that in the music of Krishna’s flute, he can hear those hills echoing it, everlastingly. In my view, Raas symbolizes the outpouring of the primeval energy as it is divided between man and women. And if we accept this definition, the Rass is as relevant today as it was in the times of Krishna. Then it is everlastingly relevant.”]


So the body is to be treated as His Temple and taken care of. Only for performing the bodily duties has the riches of the body been given. Eat, drink, do everything, but remember Him, Who is inside the body. To move according to nature is the safe course.

We have come here to do all sorts of acting. We have come here as a guest. We have taken our body as a temporary place to enjoy God in the Maya (Creative force of God manifests in ever-changing nature)! We have come to taste it! But we have become otherwise engaged. Be always with God’s name then the objective with which we have come here will be realized.

We are here with this body. Just maintain the body, nothing else. Body is not ours. We have taken that body the temple of God as a temporary place to enjoy Him in the Maya (God’s creative force which manifests in nature Prakriri, and therefore God’s grace to us). When we have come here, we have come here with mind senses, desire and attachments. We shall have to give something to them. If we stop everything, they will revolt.

To be born with human form in this mortal world has only one happy object. That is the relish the joy of God’s Love. Only it is the tendency of human mind to run under the compulsion of innumerable allurements and attachments. But even being involved in them what a Supreme blessing is this human birth. How ineffably is this world filled with beauty and flavor! We have come to taste it! But we have become otherwise engaged. Be always with God’s name then the objective with which we have come here will be realized.

Now the question is always arises in the mind of a person!

6. Where did I come from? -Why not accept the saying: “God in His Supreme playfulness, by mere resolve, has been inclined to create the worlds and they were created forthwith.

When an individual first appears in the Womb. of the mother, matters appear instantly. At that stage mind lies in a state of inertia. Mind and matter are nothing but one. With their gradual manifestation the difference in them is identified. From that state the individual is in the domain of nature and a series of phenomena determine one’s every development. Sometimes it seems mechanical.

There is no birth or death. Everything goes on changing from in the stream of eternity. Being born with a human body in this world’s itself destiny. One who has a taste for God’s love wants to be born again and again with a human body, because the taste of His love cannot be possible other than in that human birth.

Our psychosomatic (mind / body) existence is essentially feminine responding back and forth to the polarity of life. Human beings have individual shape (male / female ) according to the Divine Will of Lord, in spite of then fact that they originate from the same natural elements. Both (male / female) are dictated by the prompting of the mind and ego. Moving and acting in the plane of mind, all are female and the only goal is to realize the supreme Male.

When we take on a body in the realm of nature the power of Yoga Maya ( Divine Creative Force) is bound to create restrictions and obstacles in the course of life for individuals, families, societies and even for nations.

The Substance is one. This Universe as we find it today is the result of a long process of steady evolution. The world is only a small speck. We proceed from the general to the particular, but ultimately the general and particular become one. Therefore we should change our angle of vision.

Human birth is the rearest of all the births, we should try to live our life keeping Him in view. Human life is meant to feel His divine Play and thereby understand the nobility of the Creator. The mystery of birth will be unfolded only when the sweetness and beauty of the God’s Divine Play, which is the eternal Truth, is realized by turning the consciousness inward.

Human mind is similar to an Ocean, which is active at its surface and more and more quite (Silent) at its depth. Human being s are borne in the body with God from His blissful world to get real Anand (Supreme Bliss) by the taste Ras of His love in this mortal and illusory world. But superstitious human involvements and ignorant irresponsible attitude towards God do not allow us to come near to Him or to feel His love for which we get the rear human birth. We ignore God in pursuit of worldly pleasures, profits, and attachments, which please now and depress the very next moment. We waste the precious human birth given to us. We cannot give up the superstitious of our egoistic living in the world and we forget HE, the Truth.

We shall have no fear. The entire paraphernalia of nature is the creation of the Supreme Being. The all-pervading Truth. For the relish of His Divine Play. God has appeared many in the mirror of the mind. The divine play is intrinsically bipolar having positive and negative, ups, and downs, good and bad. Oscillation between them provides the basis for all the creative possibilities of the Play. When we are in the domain of nature, we have to acquiesce in Praabdha the evolutionary process of our life). When the play is over, the two poles coalesce into mere existence, all existents having disappeared.

7. Where am I going ? - We are going in the direction we have chosen, either drifting through life, at the mercy of events and of our own passing whims and moods, or taking adult responsibility for the whole of ourself, our character, our actions and our future. The full stature of manhood is the perfect expression of divinity in a human personality. We are choosing, at every moment, either to waste our opportunities and deny our true Self, or to accept our destiny and move consciously towards the goal of Self-realisation.


8. When I die where will I go?- The substance is one and that alone is the eternal substance. There is no vanishing, no destruction of it. It is the supreme Integral Existence. We are the eternal substances of that unfragmented Supreme Being.

We say a person dies. Where does one go? There is only one place. Still we think that at death a person has gone somewhere. One does not go anywhere. We do not understand the nature of death.

There is something called death as we call it. But it is God who leaves the body and He doesn’t go anywhere. His vibration stops in the body. But until the individual mind function is over the mind remains dissatisfied. Unless and until this mind is fully satisfied it will continue to come into this world. People who were together, come together again.

In the vacuous region of the heart, which is the Infinite, two sounds are constantly chanting. When those two sounds of God’s stop it is death. When these two sounds go off, the mind shrinks and a person dies. Then the mind shrinks and the person is merged in pervasive Existence. When the mind can resort to another body, it buds forth again.

Life has no death. Life is Eternal. What we call death or end of life is actually a phase and is concerned only with the body. Body consists of matters, which dissolve in time to their original form, but self has no dissolution. We have come for a few days not forever. Why should we bother for anything?

One has no right to put a violent end to one’s own life. Live the normal term of life doing your work. Without coveting the wealth of others and enjoying Him.

Individual has no existence of their own because exit from their mortal body is inescapable. That which holds the body will return to its own abode when it leaves the body. The reality of the mortal individual is then merged in that eternal and continuous Life Force which never moves from or to any place.

When God leaves the body He does not go anywhere. And we a bunch of fools do all kinds of funeral ceremonies for His benefit! Such rites are only for mercenary interest. The deceased for whom we perform rites receive nothing. Funeral rituals are meaningless and full of superstition. It is a business or trade of the priests that takes us far from Truth. We shall keep it in mind How many days we can or do live is not important. How we lived or live is important.

We have come to another’s house we must leave it someday. He will come and take us off. For the relish of His divine Play, God has appeared as many in the mirror of the mind. The divine Play is intrinsically bipolar, having positive and negative, ups and downs, good and bad, etc. Oscillations between them provide the basis foe all creative possibilities of His Play. When the Play is over, the two poles coalesce into mere Existence, all existents having disappeared.
