Karma and Karma Yoga: Nishkama Karma Yoga is the word that often comes in the Gita. Karma, Akarma and Vikarma are also mentioned in the Gita (Karmaṇohyapi…). Karma means the work done with selfish desire for a limited circle of family. Karma Yoga means the work done for the sake of Lord. Akarma means not doing either Karma or Karma Yoga. Vikarma means the action, which disturbs the peace of the world by harming...
[A devotee, Shri G. Lakshman asked Swami "What is the use of the form of God, when I can experience God directly as I came to know His qualities". Swami replied to his question by a spontaneous discourse in two parts.
Shri. G. Lakshman is an excellent devotee having the craze for divine knowledge. When he hears the divine knowledge, he does not eat or sleep. He donates lot of money for the propagation of this divine knowledge in the service of Lord Datta. Recently Swami gave him a vision of Lord Ananta Padmanabha for a long time and he was immersed in the infinite bliss for several days.]
The Only Technique - I: Let us assume that Parabrahma is the fire. The qualities of Parabrahma like knowledge, bliss and love put together can be assumed as the heat. Let us assume the human incarnation as a wire. Unless you have experience you cannot have the knowledge. The Vedas, the Shastras and logic should also support the experience. Otherwise a mad fellow may experience some false thing that cannot be taken...
The incarnation of God concentrates more on rich people, than the poor people. People are criticizing for this. But remember, that all the human beings are the children of God. Father concentrates on the child, who is suffering with cancer. Though cancer is incurable, still the father attempts to do something for the child. He is more concerned with that child and pays more attention...
Removing Religious Differences
All the religions in the world are the feathers of the same bird i.e., God with different colours. There is only one God and there is only one universe. Similarly, the man is also only one. Man should aim that one God and he should belong to all the religions in the universe. He should pick up the diamonds from all the religions and use in his spiritual path. One can have love towards the nationality...
The same Swami appeared in the decorations of Jesus, Mohammed, Buddha, Scientist, Rama, Krishna, Shiva etc., to show that the same God exists in different incarnations. Unfortunately in the pictures of Gods [or the past human incarnations] such a concept is not obvious. When we see different pictures or images of Gods, they appear quite different from each other and give the psychological impression that the ‘Gods’ are different. Even in Hinduism, in which the same God is supposed to have taken different forms, this concept is not clearly reflected...
His Holiness Shri Datta Swami is a complete incarnation of the Lord (Pari Purna Avatara). He has come to this world to preach Divine Knowledge to mankind. In the past incarnations of the Lord, this wonderful Divine Knowledge was not revealed to its fullest extent. Today, more than ever, there is a real need for this wonderful Divine Knowledge. The situation is rather peculiar. People are not ignorant about the true knowledge. They are highly intelligent. Their minds have been sharpened by the advancement in science and technology. They know the truth but they do not like it. They want to reach the true goal by the false and convenient path. For this purpose they have twisted the meaning of the scriptures. Humanity stands divided by a number of religions and religious sects...
A few new visitors have posed a question to Me 'Who are You'? I must mention the answer to this question here because every new reader is obviously attacked by this question. My name is Venu Gopala Krishna Murthy with surname 'Jannabhatla'. This name belongs only to this outer most gross body, which is composed of the inert five elements. The inner body is called as the subtle body, and is made of qualities and feelings which are like waves in a pond of water. The water is the pure awareness, which is called as the causal body or soul. If all My qualities and feelings subside as in the case of a realized scholar, the soul becomes like a pond with stand still water. There cannot be waves without water and thus the subtle body cannot exist without the causal body...
PRICE OF THE BOOKS: The price of these books is your Guru Dakshina, which may be in the form of the sacrifice of the fruit of your work (money) or may be in the form of the sacrifice of work (propagation of this book to the right readers). The Bhagavad Gita praises the former as karmaphala tyaga and the latter as karma samnyasa. You can pay the price of this book in one of these two forms or in both forms according to your ability (Yatha shakti), your devotion to the Lord (Yatha Bhakti) and your convenience (Yathavakasha)...
