Giving up the Pride of Surrender | Being Humble | Part 6 - 6 Conditions For Surrender by Swami Mukundanand

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcKbrtvVY_0 *Full Text* 1 To surrender and also surrender the pride of having surrendered.  In other words not allow this thought to be harbored, “Oh, I am surrendered, I am so great” , rather to keep this sentiment that if I was able to surrender, it was his Grace that enabled it.  Otherwise a fallen soul like me of the age of Kali, how would it have been possible that I got this good intellect,  in other words to give all the credit to God. त्वदीयं वस्तु गोविन्द तुभ्यमेव समर्पये। (भावार्थ: सब तेरा दिया हुआ गोविंद, तुझे ही समर्पित करता हूँ)  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcKbrtvVY_0&t=4 2 Whatever good we do, O Lord, it is it is all Your grace. If we get this pride, “O, I am surrendered but this person is not surrendered”, that means you are not surrendered https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcKbrtvVY_0&t=61 3 Once I was living in an ashram, there is a town called Jagat Singh Pur in Odisha, that is where I was giving lecture in the town hall (lecture series), so I was living in the ashram.  Now there was one ashram resident who would everyday come Swami ji I'm दीन हीन fallen, I am दरिद्र akinchan, destitute.    I would say, O my God, he is so humble, then one day the humbleness cracked. He said “I am humble दीन हीन but the others are so proud”, now I said, he has become proud about being humble. As some Western writer said "vanity of vanity is all in vanity" ,i.e., "if you are proud, then all your achievements are a worthless" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcKbrtvVY_0&t=73 4 so to always think - if I have done any good, it is His grace, there is a story which I tell to illustrate this point  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcKbrtvVY_0&t=119 5 there was one Sadhu (asectic) who practiced tapasya (austerities) in the Himalayas and he did severe austerities for 12 years including a whole lot of devotion, as a result which God was pleased.  And one day he found the grace descending, he had a thrill as the bliss went through his body, his intellect seemed to be getting illuminated with Divine light, His heart was filling with love and God spoke up to him,  God said Sadhu I am very pleased with your tapasya (austerity), what do you want ask and I shall bestow it  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcKbrtvVY_0&t=128 6 The sadhu said, my Lord, of course I will ask, I am entitled to, I worked so hard, what is the big deal if You are giving. You have to give, I have worked so hard for it, now God did not expect that kind of a response. He is habituated, we have spoiled his habit, “oh God thank you so much”, just joking, so He is habituated to that kind of talk & this sadhu is saying that “You have to grace me. I am entitled to it, why should I not get it ? I have worked so hard”,  God was quiet for 5 minutes, after 5 minutes, again He spoke up He said, sadhu are you asking for the results of your efforts or are you asking for My causeless grace ? The sadhu said, “my Lord, who cares about Your causeless grace, give me the results of the efforts I have put in legitimately”.  God was again silent for 5 minutes.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcKbrtvVY_0&t=185 7 Then the boulder on which sadhu was sitting, that started speaking, the boulder said, “my Lord, this sadhu has started settling accounts with you, please settle My accounts with him also, he has been sitting on my head for 12 years, for the next 12 years make me sit on his head”. The sadhu realised that you can never settle accounts with God, you can never say, “I have done this, now give me this”, whenever He gives, it is always His causeless grace  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcKbrtvVY_0&t=262 8 so that is why surrender means that you surrender the pride of having done good and keep a humble attitude. This is the sixth point of surrender  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcKbrtvVY_0&t=301 9 God says you fulfil these six conditions and I will bestow my grace upon you, that is My vow, it is My resolve as proclaimed in all the religious texts of the world through all the saints https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcKbrtvVY_0&t=321 Standby link (in case youtube link does not work): Giving up the Pride of Surrender Being Humble Part 6 - 6 Conditions For Surrender.mp4

Part 4 and 5 - Gratitude For God and Seeing Everything Belonging to God | - 6 Conditions for Surrender by Swami Mukundanand

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgmVFN-wAw4 *Full Text*  1  Now the fourth point of surrender, is to feel gratitude for all the graces we have already received from God. The final grace we are desirous of, Is that which will lead us souls to liberation from maya and God realization, but on the way we have received so many God’s graces  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgmVFN-wAw4&t=4  2  “verse” the human form we got was by the grace of God and then the earth we live in, the air we breathe, the light we receive - all this is His grace, we must feel gratitude to God. Father does so much for the son, tell the son to feel grateful,  the son responds why should I feel grateful, my father is doing his duty, his father did for him he is doing for me, you will say this is “kritaghni” (कृतघन) ingratitude (not to feel thankful)  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgmVFN-wAw4&t=30  3  similarly God has bestowed so many graces - at least feel gratitude to Him, it is He who has bestowed life upon us, without Him, we would not have existed, without Him, we cannot eat, all that we eat is His prasad, whether you offer it or you don't offer to God, it is still prasad  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgmVFN-wAw4&t=75  4  one lady she bought a meal for me, so I said, “devi ji, who made this sabzi” ? she said “swami ji, I made it”, I said, “you made it ? did you make the “aloo” (potato) or did you make the “gobi” (cauliflower)”, No, that my husband got from Walmart, I only cleaned it and cooked it, so who made it ?  It is God's technology that transformed mud into potatoes and cabbages. Is there anybody else on this planet earth, who has set up such a factory that from this side you have mud going in, on other side you've got potatoes and vegetables coming out ?  This technology is only with God which means everything we are eating is all His grace, so fill your heart with gratitude that is the fourth point of surrender  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgmVFN-wAw4&t=102  5  and the fifth point of surrender is to see all you have as belonging to Him (God), give up the sense of proprietorship, this “verse” says if you adopt two syllables, you will be in bondage, but if you change them to three syllables you will get liberated  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgmVFN-wAw4&t=166  6  what are the two syllables ? “Mameiti” , i.e., mera (mine), mera (mine), now change it to mera nahin “Na Mameiti”, you will be liberated. The concept that we have “this is mine”, “that is mine” - this is all ignorance because we will leave it all one day and go away  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgmVFN-wAw4&t=202  7  Ramakrishna Paramhansa used to say that God smiles on two occasionhe first time He smiles is when the child is sick and the mother is crying, the doctor has come and the doctor says to the mother “don't worry, I will save your child.”  God smiles “Mr Doctor, is life and death decided by you or by Me”? you can only treat, I will cure or not, cure is in My hands  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgmVFN-wAw4&t=225  8  and the second time God smiles is when two brothers divide their father's property, they measure the land, construct the fences and put up boards, one says “this is mine” the other says “this is mine” - God says “what is yours ? you came empty-handed in this world & you will go back empty-handed”  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgmVFN-wAw4&t=261  9  One billionaire said, “I owned so much in the World, precious stones and gems and gold and silver “दुनिया में खूब कमाया, क्या हीरे क्या मोती, क्या लेकिन क्या करें यारों, कफन में जेब नहीं होती” the shroud doesn't have a pocket, I was not able to take anything”  - in fact even if the shroud had a pocket, in the cremation ground it would have been burned, when you came you were empty-handed when you go that is how you shall go from the world as everything in it belongs to God  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgmVFN-wAw4&t=300  Transcript 0:04 now the fourth point of surrender what 0:08 is this to feel gratitude for all the 0:13 graces we have already received see that 0:19 is the final grace we are desirous of 0:22 which will lead to liberation from Maya 0:25 and God realization but on the way we 0:28 have received so many graces  0:30 “verse”  0:36 the human form we 0:40 got was by the grace of God and then the 0:46 earth we live in the air we breathe the 0:50 light we receive all this is His grace 0:55 feel gratitude 0:58 now father does so much for the son tell 1:01 the son feel grateful the son responds 1:06 why should I feel grateful my father is 1:09 doing his duty his father did for him he 1:12 is doing for me, you will say this is 1:15 “kritaghni” (कृतघन) ingratitude similarly God 1:20 has bestowed so many graces at least 1:23 feel gratitude it is he who has bestowed 1:28 life upon us without him we would not 1:32 have existed without him we cannot eat 1:37 all that we eat is Prasad whether you 1:40 offer it or you don't it is still Prasad  1:42 one lady she bought a meal for me so I 1:46 said devi ji who made this sabzi 1:50 she said swami ji i made it i said you 1:54 made it did you make the “aloo” (potato) or did you 1:57 make the “gobi” (cauliflower), no, that my husband got from 2:01 Walmart 2:02 I only cleaned it and cooked it so who 2:05 made it it is God's technology that 2:10 transformed mud into 2:13 potatoes and cabbages is there anybody 2:17 else on this planet earth who has set up 2:21 such a factory that from this side you 2:23 have mud going in on this side you've 2:26 got potatoes and vegetables coming out 2:29 this technology is only with God which 2:33 means everything we are eating is all 2:37 His grace so fill your heart with 2:41 gratitude that is the fourth point of 2:46 surrender and the fifth point of 2:49 surrender is see all you have as 2:53 belonging to him give up the sense of 2:58 proprietorship  3:14 this verse says two 3:16 syllables if you adopt you will be in 3:19 bondage change them to three syllables 3:22 you will get liberated what are the two 3:26 syllables “Mameiti” the mera (mine), mera 3:31 (mine), now change it to mera nahin “Na Mameiti”,  3:37 you will be liberated this concept we 3:41 have this is mine this is mine this is 3:43 all ignorance because we will leave it 3:45 all one day and go away Ramakrishna 3:50 Paramhansa used to say that God smiles on  3:52 two occasions the first time He smiles is  3:56 when the child is sick and the mother is 3:59 crying the doctor has come and the 4:03 doctor says to the mother “don't worry, I 4:05 will save your child” 4:08 God smiles “Mr Doctor, is life and 4:13 death decided by you or by Me”? you can 4:17 only treat I will cure or not cure it is 4:21 in my hands and the second time God 4:26 Smiles is 4:27 when two brothers divide their father's 4:30 Property, they measure the land construct 4:34 the fences and put up boards one says 4:39 this is mine the other says this is mine 4:43 God says what is yours you came 4:46 empty-handed in this world you will go 4:49 back empty-handed  4:52 5:00 One billionaire said I owned so much in the 5:03 world precious stones and gems and gold 5:06 and silver  “दुनिया में खूब कमाया, क्या हीरे क्या मोती, क्या लेकिन क्या करें यारों, कफन में जेब नहीं होती”  the shroud doesn't 5:23 have a pocket I was not able to take 5:26 anything in fact even if the shroud had 5:29 a pocket in the cremation ground it 5:31 would have been burned when you came you 5:35 were empty-handed when you go that is 5:37 how you shall go from the world as  5:39 everything in it belongs to God Standby link (in case youtube link does not work): Gratitude For God and Seeing Everything Belonging to God Part 4 and 5 - 6 Conditions for Surrender.mp4

How Do You Attain God? 3rd Point Of Surrender | Spirituality In Hinduism by Swami Mukundanand

How Do You Attain God? 3rd Point Of Surrender | Spirituality In Hinduism by Swami Mukundanand

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGH-2J6Bbds Main points :  1  third point in surrender to Krishna is then to have faith that He is protecting me. If he was not protecting me, how would I digest the food that I'm eating ?  Shri Krishna says in a later chapter there's a fire in the stomach “JatharAgni” that is so powerful it digests even Stone, if you happen to eat it - then that is His protection to us  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGH-2J6Bbds&t=0  2  He knows that we need oxygen to breathe and he has created the plants that produce oxygen for us, they are automatic air purifiers. So He has ensured that He is protecting us, so do not feel fearful, Oh, my God, what will happen ?  If you have an insurance policy, well & good - if you don't have an insurance Policy, well, you know that I'm in the Lord's hands, He is taking care of all the creatures in the world  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGH-2J6Bbds&t=34  3  the little ants are by the trillions and you don't find, O, my God, one billion ants there died - whatever they need is provided and the elephants they eat so much and He has equipped them for it, so we study this nature of elephants even in Odisha state which is an elephant country because the elephants used to very non-chalantly (casually, without any botheration) break our wall and come in inside and eat the gobhies (cauliflower), the vegetables,  and that's I saw, how God has equipped the elephant with such a fantastic memory that 365 days he goes to 365 places, because such a big creature, if he repeats places, people will be all ready and not only that when he comes nobody throws stones at him because we all know elephants can remember, he will remember you chucked a stone at me 20 years ago, alright, they've been known to finish people like that  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGH-2J6Bbds&t=71  4  so it is God who is protecting and this is when we are not fully surrendered and when we choose to surrender ourselves, have full faith like Draupadi did, then there'll be a more powerful and direct intervention  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGH-2J6Bbds&t=136  5  I have heard the story of Judge Swami. There used to be a judge Swami living in Haridwar, so he was previously a judge in Mathura and then he became a Swami but his story became very famous - how he became a Swami was quite astonishing.  There is a famous Bihari ji temple in Vrindavan and by the side of that, a Brahman used to live. He had to take a loan to get his daughter married and he took the loan from a sahukar, a Mahajan, money lender, so he was returning it in installments and the money lender would note it in front of him but at the end, he was also maintaining a fictitious account.  And when the whole payment was complete he said that you have not made any Payment, and he filed the case in the court. So now the appeal came from the court, the magistrate, he sent the clerk with the notice and the clerk came to meet the Brahman and said that you have not paid your Loan - he said, of course I've paid back my loan.  The clerk asked if there is any witness ? He said yes there is a witness, Bihari ji is a witness, Shri Krishna. So the matter came in front of the court and the judge said you have paid ? yes, I have paid. who is the witness - he said alright then, get him to the court. So the next hearing was decided and this Brahman cried and cried and cried before Shri Krishna in the temple and said You have to protect me.  So this is a real story, the judge opened the proceedings and the announcement was made because it was noted in the records that Bihari ji is a witness, Bihari hazir ho, nobody came, again the call went out, gawahi (witness) Bihari hazir ho, still nobody came and in the third call, one man walked up,  He was all covered in a blanket, and His face was also covered, so He came into the witness box and then He opened the blanket to look at the judge, and the pen fell out of the judge's hand. So the judge composed himself and said you have come to give witness and  the Man (Krishna actually) said “yes, this person has paid this much on this date, this much on this date, this much on this date, so judge said what is the proof, He said he's got another register inside in this particular cupboard, so the judge sent the police to do the inquiry, they found the register with all the payments, now the judge did pass the judgment in favor of the Brahman but he resigned,  So this is the third point of surrender which is to have full faith  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGH-2J6Bbds&t=158  Transcript 0:00 third point in surrender to Krishna is then 0:01 to have faith 0:04 that he is protecting me 0:09 if he was not protecting me how would I 0:12 digest the food that I'm eating 0:15 imagine this food gets digested Shri 0:19 Krishna says in a later chapter there's 0:21 a fire in the stomach “JatharAgni” 0:24 that is so powerful it digests even 0:28 Stone If you happen to eat it 0:31 then that is his protection to us 0:34 he knows that we need oxygen to breathe 0:38 and he has created the plants that 0:40 produce oxygen for us they are automatic 0:43 air purifiers 0:46 so he has ensured that he is protecting 0:49 us 0:51 so do not feel fearful 0:54 oh my God what will happen 0:58 if you have an insurance policy well & 1:00 good if you don't have an insurance 1:02 policy well you know I'm in the Lord's 1:05 hands 1:07 he is taking care of all the creatures 1:10 in the world  1:11 the little ants are by the trillions 1:15 and you don't find oh my God one billion 1:18 ants there died 1:20 whatever they need is provided and the 1:23 elephants they eat so much 1:26 and he has equipped them for it so we 1:30 study this nature of elephants even in 1:32 odisha which is elephant country because 1:35 the elephant used to very 1:37 non-chalantly break our wall and 1:40 come in inside and eat the gobhies (cauliflower) the 1:42 vegetables 1:43 and that's I saw how God has equipped 1:47 the elephant with such a fantastic 1:49 memory that 365 days he goes to 365 1:54 places 1:55 because such a big Creature if he 1:57 repeats people will be all ready 1:59 and not only that when he comes nobody 2:01 throws stones at him because we all know 2:04 elephants can remember he will remember 2:07 you chucked a stone at me 20 years ago 2:10 all right they've been known to finish 2:13 people like that 2:16 so it is God who is protecting and 2:21 this is when we are not fully 2:24 surrendered and when we choose to 2:27 surrender ourselves have full faith like 2:31 draupadi did then there'll be a more 2:34 powerful and direct intervention  2:38 I have heard the story of Judge Swami 2:42 there used to be a judge Swami living in 2:45 haridwar 2:47 so he was previously a judge in mathura 2:49 and then he became a Swami but his story 2:53 became very famous how he became a Swami 2:57 was quite astonishing 3:00 there

a mahajan money lender 3:18 so he was returning it in installments 3:22 and the money lender would note it in 3:24 front of him 3:26 but 3:28 at the end he was also maintaining a 3:32 fictitious account 3:33 and when the whole payment was complete 3:37 he said that you have not made any 3:40 payment and he filed the case in the 3:42 court 3:44 so now the appeal came from the court 3:48 the magistrate he sent the clerk with 3:51 the notice 3:52 and the clerk came to meet the Brahman 3:55 and said that you have not paid your 3:58 loan 3:59 he said of course I've paid back my loan 4:03 the clerk said is there any Witness 4:06 he said yes there is a witness 4:09 Bihari ji is a witness 4:12 Shri Krishna 4:13 so the matter came in front of the court 4:17 and the judge said you have paid yes I 4:20 have paid 4:21 who is the witness he said 4:23 all right then get him to the court 4:27 so the next hearing was decided and this 4:31 Brahman cried and cried and cried before 4:34 Shri Krishna 4:36 the temple and said no you have to 4:39 protect me 4:41 so this is a real story 4:44 the judge opened the proceedings 4:47 and the announcement was made because it 4:50 was noted in the records the bihari is a 4:52 witness 4:54 bihari hazir ho 4:58 nobody came 5:00 again the call went out gawahi Bihari hazir ho 5:04 still nobody came 5:07 and in the third 5:09 call 5:10 one man walked up 5:13 he was all covered in a blanket 5:18 and his face was also covered 5:22 so he came into the witness box 5:25 and then 5:26 he opened the blanket to look at the 5:29 judge 5:31 and the pen fell out of the judge's hand 5:35 so the judge composed himself 5:39 and said you have come to give Witness 5:42 and the man said yes 5:46 this person has paid this much on this 5:48 date this

Part 2 Accepting God's Will | - 6 Conditions for Surrender by Swami Mukundanand

Part 2 Accepting God's Will | - 6 Conditions for Surrender by Swami Mukundanand

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvLPCp3LTvc Main Points: 1  There's the story of Lord Rama, when He went in Dandakaranya to Pampasar lake, he was extremely thirsty, so He placed His bow on the earth and stooped to take a drink of water from the lake, apparently unknown to Him, He had put his bow on a frog.  So after he had his fill of Water, He cast His glance and He found that the frog was badly bruised and cut by the weight of his Sarang (Name of His bow)  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvLPCp3LTvc&t=5  2  So Lord Rama was moved to pity, He said, “my dear frog, what is this, you have been bruised so badly, you did not complain? I have given you such a big throat, you could have made some sound but you did not cry out”.  The Frog said, “my Lord, whenever I have been in trouble, I have cried out to God, to Lord Rama, today Rama Himself is putting me in trouble, now to whom should I cry out ? I'm not complaining, I'm accepting this as Your will, I was praying, give me the strength to bear with this pain “  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvLPCp3LTvc&t=41  3  “#Surrender Condition 2”, second condition of surrendot to desire against the desire of God. We put in our best efforts but the results are in His hands. After doing your best, whatever comes, accept it.  If we complain, “Why did God do this to me?” surrender finishes. The moment you say, “why did you do this, Oh God”, there is NO surrender, surrender always means “Yes, God”  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvLPCp3LTvc&t=97  4  see in the Srimad Bhagavatam, there is a very powerful “verse”, Srimad Bhagavatam says that if you can fulfill these three conditions, then Bhakti will become your “Dayabhak” - Uttaradhikar (उत्तराधिकार) (Inheritance), i.e.,  God's property will become your property (like in inheritance from father to son), three conditions you need to fulfill, what are these ?  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvLPCp3LTvc&t=135  5  First is to keep waiting for His grace, don't complain “God is not blessing me”! No, the difficulty is from my side, “तेरे करम में कमी नहीं, तू करीम है, कसूर मेरा है, झूठा उम्मीदवार हूँ मैं”, Never complain “Lord, why did You not grace”, the defect is from my side & I must keep waiting  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvLPCp3LTvc&t=182  6  second condition of surrender to God is that whatever joy, sorrow we get as a result of our past karmas, to accept them gracefully without complaining. One disciple went to his guru, “Guruji, I have this problem, that problem, how will I do sadhna” ?  Guruji said, “my child, the best sadhana is to tolerate this problem, that problem without any negativity. There is no better sadhana than this, so the second condition is that you tolerate the karmas, karmic reactions, which are coming your way without complaint  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvLPCp3LTvc&t=216  7  The third condition is that with your body, with your mind & with your word, offer your pranam (obeisance) to the Lord.  This is the “anukul sankalp”, positive thinking towards Him, so the Srimad Bhagavatam says if you can just fulfill just these three conditions, then Bhakti will become your “Dayabhak” – Uttaradhikar, i.e., inheritance  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvLPCp3LTvc&t=266  Transcript 0:05 There's the story of Lord Rama When He went in Dandakaranya to Pampasar lake,  0:12 he was extremely thirsty so he placed 0:17 his bow on the earth and stooped to take a drink of water from the lake 0:26 apparently unknown to him he had put his bow on a frog so after he had his fill of 0:34 water he cast his glance and he found that the frog was badly bruised and cut 0:41 By the weight of his Sarang (Name of His bow) so Lord Rama was moved to pity he said my dear frog what 0:51 is this you have been bruised so badly you did 0:56 not complain?  I have given you such a big throat you could have made some 1:04 sound but you did not cry out the Frog said my lord whenever I have been in 1:17 trouble  I have cried out to God, to Lord Rama, today Ram Himself is putting me in trouble now 1:27 Now to whom should I cry out ? I'm not complaining, I'm accepting this as your I was praying,  1:37 give me the strength to bear with “#Surrender Condition 2”, second condition of surrender: not to desire against the 1:47 desire of God we put in our best efforts the results are in his hands 1:56 after doing your best whatever comes accept it. If we complain, “Why did God do this to me?” surrender finishes 2:10 the moment you say why did you do this Oh God 2:15 there is NO surrender, surrender always means “Yes, God”  see in the Srimad Bhagavatam, there is a very 2:25 powerful “verse”,  2:45 Srimad Bhagavatam says that if you can fulfill these three conditions then Bhakti will become your “Dayabhak” - Uttaradhikar (उत्तराधिकार) (Inheritance)  2:55 It is God's property it will become yours, three conditions you need 3:02 to fulfill what are these first is that keep 3:10 waiting for His grace, don't complain “God is not blessing me” No, the difficulty is from my side 3:20 “तेरे करम में कमी नहीं, तू करीम है, कसूर मेरा है, झूठा उम्मीदवार हूँ मैं”  3:28 never complain “Lord, why did You not grace” the defect is from my side I must keep 3:36 Waiting, second condition whatever joy, sorrow we get as a result of our past karmas,  to accept them gracefully without 3:52 complaining 3:55 one disciple went to his guru, “Guruji, I have this problem, that problem, how will I do sadhna” ? Guruji said 4:06 my child the best sadhana is to tolerate this problem that problem 4:11 without any negativity there is no better sadhana, so the second condition is 4:19 that you tolerate the karmas, karmic reactions, which are coming your way 4:26 without complaint and the third condition is  4:34 With your body with your mind with your word offer your pranam (obeisance) to the Lord 4:43 This is the “anukul sankalp” positive thinking towards Him, so the Srimad Bhagavatam says if you can just fulfill  4:50 Just these three conditions, then Bhakti will become your “Dayabhak” – Uttaradhikar, Inheritance Standby link (in case youtube link does not work) Accepting God's Will Part 2 - 6 Conditions for Surrender Swami Mukundananda.mp4

The Easiest Way to Receive God's Grace || God Realization by Swami Mukundanand

https://youtu.be/arOJ5iqDoqQ Main points  1  one soul fights with God, he says my Lord, should I reveal my mind to You, God said, go ahead. Soul said “You will not like it”, God said, “never mind, I'm used to it”, we people from time to time think thoughts of anger, hatred, envy, jealousy and God sitting inside is noting them all.  So God says, I'm very used to all the gobar ganesh (completely foolish or very stupid) that the souls are keeping in their heart. What is it that you wish to say ? Tell me now  https://youtu.be/arOJ5iqDoqQ&t=4  2  The soul spoke up “verse”, the soul said my Lord, in the world it so happens that if a little helpless child is fallen in a ditch and a passerby happens to see the child wailing, crying helplessly, any passerby is moved to pity & they lift the child, quieten the child,  feed the child and endeavour to find that little baby's parents and if the parents are not traceable then they deposit the child in an orphanage or the police station but nobody is so hard-hearted that they would throw that little baby back into the ditch “Jao maro” - this much of pity my Lord even we humans have got  https://youtu.be/arOJ5iqDoqQ&t=51  3  God accepted, you are very correct, human beings do possess the virtue of compassion, if they don't they are not human, they're demoniac, but what is it you wish to say, O soul ? why have you created this background before presenting your statement ?  https://youtu.be/arOJ5iqDoqQ&t=133  4  now the soul expressed his intention, my Lord, I am also Your little child, I'm helpless, I have fallen in this ditch of material existence, I'm being kicked by the waves of maya and tormented by anger, greed & desire. You are my all merciful father, you have declared "Amrutasyavai Putrah" (son of the Immortal" or "children of immortality") and You are aware of the miseries that I am undergoing.  Are you not feeling pity on me ? It is within Your capacity to grace me by a mere glance of Your causeless grace, You can liberate me from the shackles of material bondage, why then, my Lord have You not graced me and endless lifetimes have passed by and don't blame me.  https://youtu.be/arOJ5iqDoqQ&t=157  5  God said “O soul, why did you not come to My door ? if you had, I would have blessed you”. Soul saMy Lord, I'm unaware of the path to Your door, I'm admitting that I'm in ignorance but you don't have any such alibis (excuses) because you are Omniscient all-knowing “Sarvagya” and  you possess various titles “Patit Pavan”, “Deen Bandhu” “binu hetu Snehi” “Akaran karuna Varunalya”, “Saviour of the destitutes”, Rescuer of the fallen”, ocean of causeless grace and mercy, what mercy, my Lord ?  Your little child is in such doldrums and You are not blessing him quickly, restore Your grace on me or Your good name will be tainted, the soul levelled this accusation upon God.  https://youtu.be/arOJ5iqDoqQ&t=235  6  Now God responded, O soul “छोटा मुंह बड़ी बात” 'chota munh, bari baat!" you have accused me of being hard-hearted. I am supposed to be softer than the softest but tell me one thing that the basis of your claim for My grace was that I am your father and you are my child. My question to you is whether do you actually believe that I am your father ?  Simple question, you said “O God, You are my Father, bless me”. My question is, do you actually believe that I am your father ? Where do you believe ? You have two percent faith in God that He is also my father but I've never seen Him whereas I have received the love of my worldly father, I have a share in his property, I will get it from him after he leaves out, you have attachment with your worldly father, and here with Me, you have none.  God says I'm waiting for you to actually accept Me as your Lord. When you go to the temple, you say "twameva mata cha pita twameva", God you alone (twameva = twam+eva, evaluated means “ONLY”) are my father.  Now why don't you believe when Chaitanya Mahaprabhu advises you to just say once, with all your heart, O Shri Krishna, You alone are Mine, You alone – “Twamev” (only You)  https://youtu.be/arOJ5iqDoqQ&t=307  7  God says, look if I bestow My grace, do you know what I will give you ? No, my lord. Listen I'll give you My divine knowledge, divine bliss, which will fulfill and satisfy you for the rest of eternity. I'll give you that kind of love which will satiate your heart completely.  In return, what do I ask from you, are you aware ? No, my lord. Look, it is said in America that there are no free lunches. You want My grace in free fund, don't you realize that you have some commitments, some obligations, something to do in return ?  Yes, You're right, my Lord. Then, first of all understand what is it that God gives and what is it that God expects from you. Alright, my Lord, let me hear You out today, please speak  https://youtu.be/arOJ5iqDoqQ&t=425  8  Now God responded with the condition for His grace. In the Rigveda, He says “verse”, O soul, surrender to Me and I will grace you, the condition for My grace is “My sharnagati”.  God says, look, you have come into My world, now if you go to Brazil you can't live by American or Indian rules, you have to follow the rules of Brazil, and if you go to Moscow you have to live by the rules of Russia.  Similarly, we are in God's world, we need to follow God's laws. God says in the Rig Veda “verse” O soul, if you surrender yourself to Me, without any delay I will release you from the bondage of Maya,  I will cut these bonds of ‘trigun’ (three material modes of nature, Satogun, Rajogun, Tamogun), ‘tritap’ (three miseries Adi Bhautik, Adi Daivik, Adhyatmik) 'tridosh', 'panchklesh', 'panchakosh',  THREE “TRIDOSH” ARE : Vata: The most powerful dosha, formed by the combination of air and space. Vata is associated with movement.  Pitta: Formed by the combination of fire and water. Pitta is associated with metabolic activities.  Kapha: Formed by the combination of earth and water. Kapha is associated with structural aspects and strength. FIVE “PANCHKLESH” : THESE are Avidya (Ignorance), Asmita (Egoism), Raga (Attachment), Dvesha (Aversion) and Abhinivesha (Fear of Death).  FIVE “PANCHAKOSH” ARE : Annamaya kosha: The physical body, or food sheath  Pranamaya kosha: The vital sheath, or energy, which includes breath and the five pranas  Manomaya kosha: The mental sheath, or emotional body, which includes thoughts, feelings, and emotions  Vijnanamaya kosha: The intellect or intuitive sheath, which includes subtle knowledge or wisdom  Anandamaya kosha: The bliss sheath, or spiritual or causal body, which is the highest level of vibration I’ll remove all these afflictions and restore that divine bliss upon you, there will not be a moment's delay  https://youtu.be/arOJ5iqDoqQ&t=504  9  See what is a moment. Even if you make the light switch on, it travels at the speed of 1 lakh 86,000 miles per second, so it takes a moment to reach you, God says, “I won't even take that moment, you just have to surrender to Me”. “verse”, again He says In Rig Veda “verse” “O soul if you want My mercy, My property, you will have to surrender to Me”  https://youtu.be/arOJ5iqDoqQ&t=601  Transcript 0:04 one soul fights with God he says my lord should I reveal my mind to you God said 0:18 go ahead you will not like it God said never mind I'm used to it we 0:28 people from time to time think thoughts of anger hatred envy jealousy and God 0:37 sitting inside is noting them all so God says I'm very used to all the gobar ganesh (completely foolish or very stupid) 0:46 that the souls are keeping in their heart what is it that you wish to say 0:51 tell me now the soul spoke up “verse”  1:12 The soul said my lord in the world it so happens that if a little helpless child is 1:22 fallen in a ditch and a passerby happens to see the child wailing crying 1:32 helplessly any passerby is moved to pity they lift the child quieten the 1:42 child feed the child and endeavour to find that little baby's parents and if 1:51 the parents are not traceable then they deposit the child in an orphanage or the 1:56 police station but nobody is so hard-hearted that they would throw that 2:06 little baby back into the ditch “Jao maro” this much of pity 2:13 my lord even we humans have got God accepted you are very correct human 2:22 beings do possess the virtue of compassion if they don't they are not 2:29 human they're demoniac but what is it you wish to say O soul why have you 2:37 created this background before presenting your statement now the soul 2:45 expressed his intention my lord I am also your little child I'm helpless I 2:56 have fallen in this ditch of material existence I'm being kicked by the waves 3:04 of maya and tormented by anger greed desire you are my all merciful father 3:14 you have declared "Amrutasyavai Putrah" and you are aware of the miseries that I am 3:24 undergoing are you not feeling pity on me 3:29 it is within your capacity to grace me by a mere glance of your causeless grace 3:38 you can liberate me from the shackles of material bondage why then my lord have 3:47 you not graced me and endless lifetimes have passed by 3:55 and don't blame me. O soul why did you not come to my door if you had I would have 4:04 blessed you my lord I'm unaware of the path to your door I'm 4:13 admitting I'm an ignorance but you don't have any such alibis because you are  4:23 Omniscient all-knowing “Sarvagya” and you possess various titles “Patit Pavan”, “Deen Bandhu” “binu hetu Snehi” “Akaran karuna Varunalya”, “Saviour of the destitutes”, Rescuer of the fallen”   ocean of causeless grace and mercy what mercy my 4:48 lord your little child is in such doldrums and you are not blessing him 4:55 quickly restore your grace on me or your good name will be tainted The soul 5:07 levelled this accusation upon God now God responded O soul 'chota munh, bari baat" you have 5:20 accused me of being hard-hearted I am supposed to be softer than the softest 5:28 but tell me one thing the basis of your claim for grace was that I am your 5:36 father and you are my child my question to you is do you actually believe that I 5:46 am your father simple question you said o god you are 5:53 my father bless me my question is do you actually believe that I am your father 6:02 Where do you believe you have two percent faith God is also my father 6:08 but I've never seen him I have received the love of my worldly father I have a 6:14 share in his property I will get it from him after he leaves out there you have 6:19 attachment and here you have none God says I'm waiting for you to actually 6:30 accept me as your Lord when you go to the temple you say to "twameva mata cha pita twameva."  6:46 O God you alone are my father now why don't you believe that Chaitanya Mahaprabhu  6:53 just say once with all your heart O shri krishna you alone are 7:05 mine you alone – “Twamev” (only You) God says look if I bestow my grace do you know what I 7:18 will give you no my lord listen I'll give you my divine knowledge 7:25 divine bliss which will fulfill and satisfy you for the rest of eternity 7:33 I'll give you that kind of love which will satiate your heart completely in 7:41 return what do I ask from you are you aware no my lord 7:48 look it is said in America there are no free lunches you want my grace in free 7:58 fund don't you realize that you have some commitments some obligations something 8:04 to do in return yes you're right my lord 8:09 what is it that you are supposed to do do you know I don't then first of all 8:15 understand what is it that God gives and what is it that God expects from you 8:24 all right my lord let me hear you out today speak up now God responded with 8:34 the condition for grace in the Rigveda He says “verse” O 8:43 soul surrender to me and I will grace you the condition for grace is sharnagati  8:55 God says look you have come into my world now if you go to Brazil 9:03 you can't live by American or Indian rules you have to follow the rules of 9:08 Brazil and if you go to Moscow you have to live by the rules of Russia similarly 9:16 we are in God's world we need to follow God's laws God says why is this  9:23 revolution taking place again he says in the Rig Veda  “verse” 9:39 o soul if you surrender yourself to me without any delay I will release you from the 9:49 bondage of Maya I will cut these bonds of ‘trigun’, ‘tritap’, 'tridosh', 'panchklesh', 'panchakosh', 9:54 all these afflictions and restore that 10:01 divine bliss upon you there will not be a moment's delay see what is a moment 10:11 even if you put the light on it  10:18 travels at the speed of 1 lakh 86,000 miles per second so it takes a moment to 10:24 reach you God says I won't even take that moment you just have to surrender 10:31 there is My grace “verse” again he says 10:40 In Rig Veda “verse” O soul if you want my 10:51 mercy my property you will have to surrender Standby link (in case youtube link does not work): The Easiest Way to Receive God's Grace God Realization Swami Mukundananda.mp4
