Residents of R R Nagar were indeed blessed with a magnificent divine sight in Kailas Ashram, Rajarajeshwari Nagar today – 2nd December, 2019 evening when two spiritual stalwarts – Pujya Jayendra Puri Swamiji and Pujya Swami Brahmananda shared the dais in Shivaratnapuri Bhavana on the first day of Geeta Jnana Yajna by Pujya Swami Brahmananda in Kannada on Bhagavad Geeta Chapter – 6.
Swami Brahmananda laid importance on developing noble and positive traits instead of external show off. The outer world is bound to influence the mind depending upon the level of one’s maturity. A wise person is able to accept all dualities as the Lord’s prasada and ensure that his equipoise is never disturbed.
Just as we create and pervade the dream world, our world in waking state is nothing but projection of our own mind. It is only when we transcend the BMI and revel in the deep silence and peace within, we will be able to experience the totality and realise that all change occurs only at the BMI level and ‘I’ am only a witness to all the changes. This understanding is possible only through continuous practice and getting rooted in the fact that the Lord will take care of happenings in the world. All our daily sadhanas like puja, japa, bhajan, dhyana, etc., protect us from the onslaught of outer world and help in keeping our mind calm just as a lamp protected from wind shines without flickering. All our attachments drop off and we merge with totality just as the river loses its individuality on reaching its source – the ocean.
