In this message, Swamiji discusses the subject of the mind. We often find that the mind is gripped by desire and hatred. We have to understand that when we dislike somebody, it is not the object or person we dislike. The dislike is arising from our own mind.

A seeker must strive to float over his own likes and dislikes. He has to understand that the mind is responsible for the likes and dislikes and the consequent pleasure and displeasure. The object comes next, Mind comes first and spirituality takes one to a level where the mind will be joyous and peaceful, looking at everything, meeting everything, undergoing everything.

Shlokas Chanted in the Track:

इच्छाद्वेषसमुत्थेन द्वन्द्वमोहेन भारत ।
सर्वभूतानि सम्मोहं सर्गे यान्ति परन्तप ।।
(Bhagavad Gita 7.27)

येषां त्वन्तगतं पापं जनानां पुण्यकर्मणाम् ।
ते द्वन्द्वमोहनिर्मुक्ता भजन्ते मां दृढव्रताः ।।
(Bhagavad Gita 7.28)
