This talk is the second in a series of talks given by Ma Gurupriya during the Jnana Yajna at Malaysia on 09 Sep 2022.

In this enriching, motivating interactive Satsang, Ma responds to questions in her distinctive style and gives great clarity to listeners.

Does providence facilitate the elimination of desires? Ma says that Providence plays a role in everyone’s life. But, sincere personal effort is necessary to eliminate desires. One must strive sincerely and give 100% effort and attention to eliminate desires. Introspection is crucial to identify and eliminate possessiveness and constricted desires.

When does a need become a want? A need becomes desire when one starts feeling disturbed in the absence of it or when the need is not fulfilled. Renouncing possessiveness and clinging and being able to let go, leads to an expanded mind.

How to avoid being Judgmental? We have a habit of judging others. A seeker must aspire not to be judgmental. Introspection and self-assessment are crucial for personal growth. Aspiring for it and practicing it diligently in life, helps in overcoming judgmental tendencies.

Ma outlines qualities for spiritual growth, drawing from scriptures like the Bhagavad Gita. Seekers should cultivate qualities like friendliness, compassion, equal-mindedness, forbearance, contentment, discipline, truthfulness, and non-hurting behavior. The seeker should be free from hatred, possessiveness, arrogance, elation, anger, fear, and anxiety. Qualities such as non-expectation, purity, efficiency, indifference to the world, and freedom from strong afflictions must adorn the seeker of Truth.

Ma advises all listeners to regularly assess themselves, make a list of desired qualities, and work towards cultivating them while eliminating negative traits. Such a mind will be calm, free from anxiety and stress and will be connected to God/Self.
