Rejection without Knowing

Rejection without knowing

Rejection without Knowing – Ever since our childhood, we have been reading science books. If not science, we must have read books on history, geography, literature, or arts. Every book we read presented some facts and ideas, and we accepted them as the truth. We studied physics and biology but never bothered to check even the simple experiments and validate them. We just read the experiments and considered them as the truth. Why? Weren’t we inquisitive? The answer is no, we were indeed curious, but we did not have time. Also, the books we read had descriptions that proved that it was written by some great scientist, professor, or academician after a long period of study and research. Although those books may have been wrong, we did not dare to reject authority in that subject.

Q&A WITH LILA PURUSHOTTAM DAS

Q&A WITH LILA PURUSHOTTAM DAS

🤔Reflected and pure consciousness what are these two kinds of consciousness and how they exist simultaneously in the same body?

That is because reflected consciousness is much grosser than the pure consciousness. That latter is as subtle as the soul. Subtle body becomes depraved when separated from Krishna. And so it becomes very violent. Clouds cover the suns rays. Similarly, reflected consciousness covers the puny pure consciousness of the soul. That is by the will of the Supreme lord.

Thus, material energy is cleavable and therefore becomes varieties of individuation. Although it is inert.

Search for Happiness

Search for happiness

Search for Happiness – The driving force behind all our actions is to seek happiness in this material world. If we do not derive any pleasure from activities, then we would never have an interest to perform them.

But the unfortunate part is that we do not get complete happiness and total satisfaction in this material world simply by performing our material activities. Although we see so many advertisements about happiness, practically speaking we see very few people are happy in this world. In this blog, we will go through what truly is happiness

How to overcome distress?

How to overcome distress?

How to overcome distress – The material world is a world of duality. Can you think of anyone who never had any distress in life? Either someone has financial distress, or family distress, or work stress. If one is lucky not to have any of these, there would be health issues, old age catches up, some near and dear one meet an accident. Sometimes, this distress can take extreme form, and put one in complete delusion in one’s path of duty. In fact, the setting of Bhagavad Gita starts with the distress of Arjuna.

What is true religion according to bhagavad gita

What is True Religion According to Bhagavad Gita? – What is religion? Is it simply faith? To understand what is true religion, let us talk about what is religion.
