Poojya Swamiji, through this crisp and effective talk lays emphasis that we must watch all our thoughts, words and deeds. Recognizing that one is gripped by raga-dvesha or bhaya, one must disallow them.

Application of wisdom is the only way to progress in sadhana. Efforts should be to minimize and mitigate Raga-dvesha and bhaya. Neither home nor spouse nor money will bring abundance in life, only transcending Raga-dvesha and bhaya will.
