The true purpose of life is to realize the Supreme Self.
The true purpose of life is to realize the Supreme Self.
Whatever you are doing right now will automatically take you to the very purpose of life. You need not set out to explicitly find that.
You catch hold of the Mahamantra. That will help you come out of all the problems you are struck with in real life.
When a child is ill, the mother gives medicines to it. The child initially refuses to take the medicine owing to its bitterness. For a moment, the mother diverts the attention of the child through some play. Then again, the mother tries to feed the medicine. The mother will continue to do so, without giving up, until the child takes the medicine completely, wouldn’t she?
In the same way, God gives us sufferings to realize that the state that you live in is not your true state. When the sufferings become unbearable, he distracts you by giving you a sigh of relief. However it continues to trouble you and will not leave you until you realize your true nature which is the Self.
The simplest way towards this goal is by chanting the Mahamantra.
Moksha is the primary purpose of life. If the rest of them aid in attaining this purpose, they can be performed.
If we have faith in the Almighty and worship Him in any path prescribed by the great devotees and the Vedas, then we are in the right path. If not, then we are not!
You have wished for ‘Dharma’, ‘Artha’ (wealth), ‘Kama’ (ambitions) and ‘Moksha’ (God). Srimad Bhagavatam says that all these four can be attained by performing service to Lord Sri Hari.
Chanting the Mahamantra and pleasing the Lord is the easiest way to serve Sri Hari. So start chanting right away and attain these four very easily.
That is true. It is ideal not to have the sense of doership at all. However we forget this very fact due to the veil of Maya and we tend to attach the sense of ownership to each and every act and each and every thing in our life, every moment of our life. That is the reason for all the sufferings. The true realization and experience of this fact will dawn only by the grace of God, which can be invoked easily through chanting the Mahamantra.
If you are good today, the future also will be good to you.
It is very nice to note that you have been listening to Srimad Bhagavatam for the past few years.
Srimad Bhagavatam is verily described as the essence of the Vedas which is nothing but eternal Knowledge. It has answers for all your questions. You don’t need to look for any other external sources for answers nor ask anyone. Be strong in your quest, and keep going through the great Purana over and over again until you find the answer. You will definitely get answers to your queries.
