236 - Following Krishna's Guidance 03 I Swami Nirviseshananda Tirtha

Date: 16 October 2022 Venue: Stonegate Elementary School, 100 Honors, Irvine CA92620 In this series of talks, Swamiji speaks about Sri Krishna’s guidance to Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita and Uddhava in Srimad Bhagavatam. He asked Arjuna to adopt Buddhi Yoga and fight and Uddhava was asked to pursue a life of meditation, in seclusion. Although the external Sadhana seems to be different, the fundamental advice was the same. The seeker had to shift and grow from the small identity to the universal, unfragmented, unaffected identity. Whether it is Upanishadic, Bhagavad Gita or meditational Sadhana, the Sadhana of a seeker is to remain anchored within. He can attain this by a two-fold practice--meditational Sadhana and interactional Sadhana. The mind is, however, restless, and not easily restrained. The restless mind can be made calm only by Abhyasa (Practice) and Vairagya (Impersonality). Sadhana is to increase the focus within, and also restraining the outgoing mind. In meditation, the seeker discovers that the source of joy and peace is within. When the body is still, mind and intelligence are also not active, the Atma reveals itself and the seeker discovers his own real identity. But this is only one part of the Sadhana. Parallelly, in interactional life also, he will have to remain anchored to the aim of Meditation. He will have to cultivate the qualities of the Atma-impersonality, unaffectedness, equalness, acceptance etc. When one is able to practice interactional Sadhana, it becomes a help for meditational Sadhana. The mind becomes calm enough to withdraw easily within. Conversely, a good meditational practice helps in being established in the Self in the interactional period. By the constant parallel practice of meditative and interactional Sadhana, all the knots of the heart are dissolved; all the doubts of the intelligence are eliminated and one becomes free of the sense of doership.
