There are numerous anecdotes from our Shastras that tell us what the real focus of our life should be. Krishna teaches Arjuna, the sage Vasistha teaches young Rama, and in the Bhagavatam, Pareekshit is taught by Sukadeva. The environments are different, but all instances tell us that the focus of a spiritual life is within oneself.

Slokas chanted in the track

भोगेन पुण्यं कुशलेन पापं
कलेवरं कालजवेन हित्वा ।
कीर्तिं विशुद्धां सुरलोकगीतां
विताय मामेष्यसि मुक्तबन्ध: ॥
(Srimad Bhagavatam 7.10.13)
