Someone has insulted or criticized you. How can you avoid negative emotions and maintain peace of mind in this situation (1. cultivate empathy; 2. practice presence of God; 3. practice humbleness)? Reply with your comments.
I would bring the right knowledge into the mind. As Swamiji related in his lectures, this is the world of Maya, full of dualities and no one is perfect. I would quickly move on and not let circumstances or other's reaction rule my emotions, this applies to both praises or criticisms.
Earlier its hard to control that situation. Now with help of daily Sadhana and swamiji lechers. I am able to manage negative emotions. Thanks Swamiji for giving wonderful knowledge.
Before getting Swamiji the situations has learnt, and after getting Swamiji, I accepted the external situations and overcomed it very easily.... Thank you veryyyyyyyy muchhhhhh Swamiji.
Instead of teaching the children all kinds of other stuff, all these wonderful gems that pretty much summarize the essential life lessons would be so awesome!
Thank you Swamiji for teaching us that the outer world, created by God is perfect. If we accept all external circumstances with understanding and wisdom, we will always be Happy.
Swamiji rightly propunds that happiness is a choice we make and not just a reaction to external circumstances. If only we could realize this, we could sustain our happiness in the direst situations.
Swamiji makes a great argument by saying" if we created this world with our mind then we should be able to destroy it with our mind as well. But that is not the case"
Yes Swamiji made a very interesting point that as we cannot change the outer world we should be able to change our inner world for the better as it is within our control.
Swamiji explains so eloquently that there are two worlds. The external world is created by God, thus it is perfect and real whereas the inner world is created by the mind, thus it is mithya or an illusion. Thank you, Swamiji.
Such a precious Gem of wisdom. It cut through my mind like an arrow and is just helping me feel so much lighter. I have watched this video 5 times already. It is working on me like a charm.
Current world situation with pandemic and other challenges across the globe seems full of problems beyond our control. Looking forward to Swamiji’s advice on what to do.
You are right Dale. But only upside I see to it is - we all found time that nobody ever had. I am also learning about all this beautiful spiritual journey and how one can transform their life. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Swamiji explains exceptionally well about the external world and internal world. External world is created by God and hence is perfect and internal world by us. However, we tend to change external without making any change to our internal world and hence find everything difficult to manage.
When we get down and absolutely everyone is doubting us and giving us no chance, our control of the mind is the main determinant for success. Our mind is what we make of it. We have a vision. We can develop our own energy and take control no matter what. Through that, we can develop ourselves as the hardest worker in the room with that desired-can do attitude who is never afraid, but willing to take on the most pressing challenges
By comparison I feel embarrassed by what passes for "philosophy" or "insight" in the academic realm...Swamiji makes it all so plain and clear...and sweet!
Yes, so beautifully worded! The way Pujya Swamiji has worded this statement almost makes the situation trivial and gives us self-power on how we go about it!
How amazing. We need to find peace in accepting the world as it is. It's all necessary for our spiritual growth. May our Bhakti grow every day by Swamiji and Shrimati Radha Rani's Grace
Amen to that! I am agreeing with "May our Bhakti grow every day by Swamiji and Shrimati Radha Rani's Grace" couldn't find another word that would mean ‘so be it’!
Swamiji beautifully says that we tend to tie our happiness with external things but if they don’t go according to our expectation, we are disappointed. Happiness is a matter or personal choice. Thank you, Swamiji.
Agreed - it solves so much of confusion if we put ourselves into that perspective. It brings home the point right away - that each one of us is a bundle of beliefs and values which is responsible for how and what we experience in this world. So highly intelligent and sharp. Thankful for the #MindManagementChallenge
As Swamiji said in this video, whatever the external situation may be, it's all perfect.. The defect is in ourselves, our own internal machinery... Look the funda is very simple... We are the Soul, it's proved... Then our one and goal is to attain God. Then why not we pray to God for problems... Problems are the best way to detach the mind from this world and rather for anxiety, tension, frustration for it attach the mind to God! In other words, God is helping us very much! Thank you soooooo muchhhhh Swamiji, this video will change much more lives included me, my present!
The external world is designed for our spiritual growth and mind management is about controlling the internal world. We can experience peace by accepting adverse situations in the external world. Thank you, Swamiji.
Swamiji gives such realistic and relatable examples that they hit the nail on the head. The story of the wife is such a commonly encountered family situation and yet provides such a simple and profound solution, to alter one's perspective. Simple solutions to seemingly complex situations or uncontrollable problems.
Anybody else out there watch these first 2 videos multiple times? I found it was helpful to me as it requires repetition to change old habits and patterned thinking. Also each time I noticed something I didn't before.
I think I will need to watch these a few times. The first time was a total eye opener. It's a lot to soak in but I think watching it some more will strengthen me.
I am guilty of the same thing! Sometimes we need to rewatch the videos because we encounter the same/similar situation and have not rewired our reactions to the more appropriate ones - the hope is that many such iterations brings us closer to doing so!
There is so much beyond our control - and it can be frustrating at times. If we realize and wholeheartedly accept that all that is in our hands are our actions, and to leave the fruits to God, we will be much more at peace. Eagerly waiting for Swamiji's beautiful discourse on this topic.
Absolutely true. All situations are arranged by God for the growth in our life. If we can take it as his will and move forward will give peace of mind at all situations
Could not agree more. Swamiji delivers the discourses in a manner that is simpler for us to understand, and really strikes us all, in an individually relevant manner.
This tool is so important in our day to day dealings with the external world. Control of the inner world is the innate power we have. Another wonderful gem of knowledge, thank you Swamiji.
Wow! Perfectly designed for our spiritual growth, not for our comforts! If only every child in the world is taught this, growing up! World Peace will be a reality!
Agree 👍 Ram Ji. External world is perfectly designed by God for our spiritual growth. When we understand the gap between external world and internal world, it provides perfect opportunity to manage our mind
Very true maam....What there is inside we see and we get the same thing from outer world..If we have negativity we will end up in a negative world and meet such people in the outer world..and get support for such creation.....and in such situations if v want to do any positive creation we will be pulled back from all sides from the negative powers within us which are supported by powers of the outer world.......The same exact opposite thing for a positive person...😊
"Happiness is a choice" this is the advice I got today. I really loved the example of wife and husband, this is such a common scenario, we often face this in our lives. I loved how Swamij gave a simple and effective solution to choose how you feel.
What a Wonderful Message Swamiji has passed on to us. I used to be very angry & emotionally upset every time i face this in my Daily life. Not any more. Since I Accepted Swamiji as My Guru & listening his Lectures & Daily SADHNA , these External Deflections Does not Affect me any more. Thank you Swamiji.
What a great explanation...External World is same for everyone made of Earth, Fire,Water,Space while internal world of Values, Thoughts Desires is different for everyone
Thanks Swamiji for making the topic so interesting n enlightening.Very beautifully described by Swamiji about External world n Internal world as the world may be temporary but not mithya.
Swamiji, when I find inhuman atrocities and injustices in the world, I don't find outside world perfect...but you are right, god's creation cannot have fallacies
Agree there is a lot of bad stuff going on. Inhuman atrocities and injustice in the world are created by humans though. And that is more the reason why we all (and even them) need Mind Management. If every child is taught this amazing wisdom and helped along to practice this while growing up, the world will become a better place in one generation! Till then some of the bad chaos created by humans(whose mind is definitely not managed and is crooked) will be one of those features of the world that are beyond our control!
That is because this is kaliyuga where Dharma is standing on one leg. And it has only just started and a long way to go. It is said as this age advances there will be no one in the world repeating God's name. Everyone will be selfish to the core and will not hesitate to do any action to further one's own self interest. At that time, God will descend as the next Avatar
Yes it is so relieving to find out that all we need to fix is our ill - formed inner world. And the way to fix it is to feed our intellect with spiritual wisdom like in the #MindManagementChallenge daily. So thankful for this TH-cam channel!
This is such a powerful message! Understanding that we have the power to choose our response wisely no matter what the external circumstance is! If I can focus on what I can control and choose my response wisely to any external situation, then I feel like I am in charge. That helps me have a more positive outlook on life. Thank you Swami ji!
Truly said. If we choose our response which is the inner feelings wisely and keep cool, we can control the external situation even if it is really bad.
Swamiji has beautifully articulated the difference between the outer and the inner world. We can control and strengthen our inner world but have limited control over the outer world.
We tie happiness to the external world 🌍 Happiness is the choice we make irrespective of the external circumstances. Thanks 🙏 Swamiji for such a powerful wisdom !!!
To summarize the message- 1. We can't have all favorable circumstances 2. We need to accept that we can't change 3. Our response is our power 4. Surrender is power 5. Two worlds- internal and external...internal is mithya/ unreal and external is real
My is set to come end of this month. Also looking forward to it as well. I think it will be a chance to take everything we learn here in the 21 days further to the next step! It will require practice, practice, practice!
We tend to tie our happiness with external circumstances. Happiness is a choice selected by our mind and not dependent on circumstances 🙏 thanks 🙏 Shri Swamiji
We need re-programming of fundamentals for sure - wish could go back to being a child and easily adopt the right ways and unwind the current programming.
OUR response to adverse situations is under OUR control. Don't become angry, or agitated, become tolerate and accept the circumstances around you. Thank you for sharing these gems of wisdom with us, Swamiji!
The ability to control our mind and thoughts will determine how the external world appears to us and affects us. It can change our attitude to life and the people around us. Thank you Swamiji for this gem of a lesson.
Listening to Swamiji's message is the best thing one can do at the start of the day. His enthusiasm is infectious and has the power to inspires and encourage us through out the day.
Day 3 MMC is very applicable to the present Covid-19 time when so many things are beyond our control. Look forward to the gems of wisdom and practical tool to manage the problems in our lives.
The outer world is created by God. How can it be bad? It is mind that needs this alignment with the perfection He has created and that is our responsibility. Thank you Swamiji for these great thoughts.
Subjective Idealism & Objective Idealism! Thank you for incorporating the modern and Western philosophical view points as well! It makes this discussion complete from all the perspectives!
" We often tie the peace of our mind with external situations. But these externals are not in our control. The external world is not bad. It is perfectly designed not for our comfort but our spiritual growth." 🙏🏻🌸
Swamiji has so beautifully provided anatomy of our internal and external world and the causes of our unhappiness. His statements strike to me so profoundly .. that the external circumstances are not in our hand and our internal world is our mental construct.. external circumstances vs internal response .. need to ornament ourselves from within .. every statement conveys wisdom!🌹🙏🙏🙏🌹
Swamiji so aptly describes the story of the neophyte yogi who was able to do his meditation once he made peace with his internal world. To do our work better this is the exact state of mind needed. Such great truth.
This video totally redefines freedom. We are always free, despite what circumstances are around us. The externals do not define our freedom as we think. Freedom is when we transcend the externals by using the power of our mind. We become unshackled from disturbance.
Understood Swamiji's power of speaching. I also understand that only listeng can I do. He is an ocean.As much as Ican fill with his divine words within me. Always grateful to him.I love u Swamiji let be a particle of ur holy charan
When they say the world is mithay, they are referring to the inner world that we created with our likes, dislikes, hatred, aversions and imagination. The external world is real and created by the almighty. I really loved this explanation and it helped me to connect the dots. Also made me ponder how vast is the world that I created :), time to correct and purify the defective inner world. Thank you Swamiji.
Loved today's video, such amazing content. Thanks Swamiji for explaining how external world is not mithya. And the frog and Yogi example showed us how one can achieve better results once we have accepted the things we can not change in the external world.
While associating with Swamiji, I have learned how negative circumstances are essential for inner and spiritual growth. I never had this knowledge before, but now, thanks to Swamiji, I am trying to learn humbleness, patience, and many more from each negative situation.
Lesson learned - Accept that external situations are not always in my control. Do not tie internal peace and happiness with an external situation. Learn to make a prudent response to an external situation which is beyond my control. Thanks so much for #MMC
@@gayathris2776 Never thought spirituality would be so simple. Had been looking in scriptures. We just need to work on our mind - everything else will be arranged by the Universe.
Someone has insulted or criticized you. How can you avoid negative emotions and maintain peace of mind in this situation (1. cultivate empathy; 2. practice presence of God; 3. practice humbleness)? Reply with your comments.

Detach with that person in mind
@@purnachandrabrahma7001 I am unable to overcome the use of the word "overcomed" instead of overcame!
Instead of teaching the children all kinds of other stuff, all these wonderful gems that pretty much summarize the essential life lessons would be so awesome!
So true!
Good point, Send our kids to Bal-Mukunda classes to learn such real essential life lessons !!
I am agree with you
I agree Manjari it should be included in school instructions can solve so much problems .
Very well stated !!
Thank you Swamiji for teaching us that the outer world, created by God is perfect. If we accept all external circumstances with understanding and wisdom, we will always be Happy.
Very true
Beautifully said!
So true
Beautiful
Ushaji 👍 good positive way of managing external circumstances 👏👌🙏
Swamiji rightly propunds that happiness is a choice we make and not just a reaction to external circumstances. If only we could realize this, we could sustain our happiness in the direst situations.
Santoshji 👍very true 👌👏🙏
Yes this is the key to be happy all ways!
That is very true!
Yes, Happiness is indeed a choice.
Swamiji makes a great argument by saying" if we created this world with our mind then we should be able to destroy it with our mind as well. But that is not the case"
very true!
True - Such a strong point with a simple logic.
I agree Anjali ji
Yes Swamiji made a very interesting point that as we cannot change the outer world we should be able to change our inner world for the better as it is within our control.
@@neenamarwah5062 this reminds of a story Pujya Swamiji usually mentions, how we play cards depends on us - we can win or lose!
Swamiji explains so eloquently that there are two worlds. The external world is created by God, thus it is perfect and real whereas the inner world is created by the mind, thus it is mithya or an illusion. Thank you, Swamiji.
Great explanation
Excellent
Such a precious Gem of wisdom. It cut through my mind like an arrow and is just helping me feel so much lighter. I have watched this video 5 times already. It is working on me like a charm.
Very true, external world is so perfect and whatever happens is only for our spiritual growth!!!
Nicely put!
Current world situation with pandemic and other challenges across the globe seems full of problems beyond our control. Looking forward to Swamiji’s advice on what to do.
Yes! True
I completely agree!
Very true!! Today's lecture is very helpful to reduce stress in the current situation!
You are right Dale. But only upside I see to it is - we all found time that nobody ever had. I am also learning about all this beautiful spiritual journey and how one can transform their life. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Outer world is perfect It is creation of God for a purpose. By accepting this facts we can be peaceful
Swamiji explains exceptionally well about the external world and internal world. External world is created by God and hence is perfect and internal world by us. However, we tend to change external without making any change to our internal world and hence find everything difficult to manage.
Sounds so simple but so easy to forget when we face difficulties in our life when things do not go according to what we want in the external world.
@@sundarakulkarni3657 Yes, it is easier say than done!
True!! Inner world is creation of our own thoughts and beliefs!
Swamiji is a master narrator of modern stories full of Vedic messages.
Eagerly waiting for Swamiji's talk on how to control our mind when problems are beyond our control.
Looking forward!
really waiting to learn more from the next video from Swamiji.
When we get down and absolutely everyone is doubting us and giving us no chance, our control of the mind is the main determinant for success. Our mind is what we make of it. We have a vision. We can develop our own energy and take control no matter what. Through that, we can develop ourselves as the hardest worker in the room with that desired-can do attitude who is never afraid, but willing to take on the most pressing challenges
Very nicely said! It is all in the response! Everyone has the same power to choose better!
Truly an attitude of a Victor not of a victim!
Great
Very well put
So true, we need to manage our mind.
Swamiji, your logic is beyond all subjective philosophies. So much clarity with no doubts.
By comparison I feel embarrassed by what passes for "philosophy" or "insight" in the academic realm...Swamiji makes it all so plain and clear...and sweet!
Yup, Swamiji gives great simple examples that resonate with our complex lives! 😊🙏
Swamiji brings such clarity to our minds, so that we learn the right way to solve any problem.
Love this statement from Swamiji's story: peace can be found be accepting certain features of the world that are beyond our control.
very true. Accept certain things are outside our control
Yes, so beautifully worded! The way Pujya Swamiji has worded this statement almost makes the situation trivial and gives us self-power on how we go about it!
@@manjarik.gangwar-warty4679 Exactly, Thank you Pujya Swamiji
That knowledge is so great for our acceptance of the situation that we have no control on
Cannot wait for another wonderful tool on mind management by Swamiji on day 3!
How amazing. We need to find peace in accepting the world as it is. It's all necessary for our spiritual growth.
May our Bhakti grow every day by Swamiji and Shrimati Radha Rani's Grace
Pranaam Swamiji for giving this knowledge
So true, this should our perspective while looking at situations and circumstances.
Amen to that! I am agreeing with "May our Bhakti grow every day by Swamiji and Shrimati Radha Rani's Grace" couldn't find another word that would mean ‘so be it’!
Swamiji beautifully says that we tend to tie our happiness with external things but if they don’t go according to our expectation, we are disappointed. Happiness is a matter or personal choice. Thank you, Swamiji.
Hummm nice explanation!
agree, being happy is completely our choice.
The concept of two worlds was such an eye-opener. Thank you, Swamiji for enlighting us!!
Yes Eye opening
Clarifies so many thoughts by realizing the existence of the two worlds as explained by Swamiji so clearly.
Agreed - it solves so much of confusion if we put ourselves into that perspective. It brings home the point right away - that each one of us is a bundle of beliefs and values which is responsible for how and what we experience in this world. So highly intelligent and sharp.

That's is what Kunti asked for "give more problems" to handle and always remember Krishna.
@@shyampriya844 Yes, you are absolutely correct!
Yes. God is always helping us. We just fail to recognize that many times.

Good
So true smitha, we can have peace by accepting adverse situations.
Agree that he explained both the worlds so well
Beautifully said!

I totally agree.
What a nice example, we all face this kind of situation in our life.
Swamiji's analysis and solution to a problem, be what it may be, is so simple and doable and of course so profound..
Saints have shown so much tolerance and we can take inspiration from them
Anybody else out there watch these first 2 videos multiple times? I found it was helpful to me as it requires repetition to change old habits and patterned thinking. Also each time I noticed something I didn't before.
I rewatched them! Knowledge is so powerful
Watched it multiple multiple time !! I learn something new every-time i listen to the same video from Swami ji!! Miraculous !
Yes, I had watched every video again and again, Every time when I watch, I understand something new which I can take away or implement in my life.
I think I will need to watch these a few times. The first time was a total eye opener. It's a lot to soak in but I think watching it some more will strengthen me.
I am guilty of the same thing! Sometimes we need to rewatch the videos because we encounter the same/similar situation and have not rewired our reactions to the more appropriate ones - the hope is that many such iterations brings us closer to doing so!
What an excellent description of the inner and the outer worlds and how they work!
There is so much beyond our control - and it can be frustrating at times. If we realize and wholeheartedly accept that all that is in our hands are our actions, and to leave the fruits to God, we will be much more at peace. Eagerly waiting for Swamiji's beautiful discourse on this topic.
I totally agree. When there are expectations and attachment to results of our action, mystery starts.
Very nicely said Kulkarniji 🙏
Absolutely true. All situations are arranged by God for the growth in our life. If we can take it as his will and move forward will give peace of mind at all situations
So true, put in our best effort and leave results to God!!
Completely agree! The key is figuring out what can and what can't be controlled and exercising our duty on what we can control.
Want to say the last 2 videos have already made a difference for me. I am feeling a good shift happening. Thank you!
I think this video reall hit home for me too
Could not agree more. Swamiji delivers the discourses in a manner that is simpler for us to understand, and really strikes us all, in an individually relevant manner.

How we respond internally to external circumstances is the key to control our mind.
Our spiritual growth depends upon our perfecting inner world

It is so true, we tend to forget in a difficult situation that we alone have the only control to respond to it in a positive & blissful way.
When our attitude is right, we can be happy irrespective of external circumstances! Love this message by Swamiji!
Beautiful lesson for today.... morning become beautiful after this...
Swamiji has beautifully articulated the difference between the outer and the inner world. We can control and strengthen our inner world but have limited control over the outer world.
What a wonderful lecture #3! Looking forward to the book on Mind management and lecture #4!
The happiness that we seek outside actually resides in us inside. Thank you so much Swamiji for this introspective lecture.
right, our inner world of Values needs mind management!😊🙏🏼
Controlling the internals and learning to give the best response to external situations. That’s mind management.
Thank you Swamiji 🙏🙏
Swamiji, please lead us and guide us to elevate our minds on this spiritual journey. Many pranams to you 🙏🙏🙏
We tie happiness to the external world 🌍 Happiness is the choice we make irrespective of the external circumstances. Thanks 🙏 Swamiji for such a powerful wisdom !!!
Thank you Swamiji for all the wonderful videos !!
To summarize the message-
1. We can't have all favorable circumstances
2. We need to accept that we can't change
3. Our response is our power
4. Surrender is power
5. Two worlds- internal and external...internal is mithya/ unreal and external is real
Prachiji 👍nice summary 🙏
Nicely summarized
So true
God shows us that part of the world we need to see to foster spiritual growth
Superb points
Prachi you have done nice summary . From this list my take away is we need to accept what we can not change .
Swamiji's examples are also so amazing!!
Pre ordered my copy of Science of Mind Management. Can't wait to receive it.
My is set to come end of this month. Also looking forward to it as well. I think it will be a chance to take everything we learn here in the 21 days further to the next step! It will require practice, practice, practice!
The book will help keep the inspiration flowing, in addition to repeatedly watching these videos.
I've ordered too! Hope it comes soon!
Me too waiting for the book by Swamiji... I order a copy for me and my friend
I have ordered mine to ☝️🙏👍
We tend to tie our happiness with external circumstances. Happiness is a choice selected by our mind and not dependent on circumstances 🙏 thanks 🙏 Shri Swamiji
We need re-programming of fundamentals for sure - wish could go back to being a child and easily adopt the right ways and unwind the current programming.
Objective vs subjective realities beautifully explained!!
OUR response to adverse situations is under OUR control. Don't become angry, or agitated, become tolerate and accept the circumstances around you. Thank you for sharing these gems of wisdom with us, Swamiji!
There are two worlds. Such an eye opener. The inner world and outer world.
This is my impact-full learning in this life. What an amazing angle - so obvious - we got to work on the inner world - the outer world is fixed.
I loved the concept of the 2 worlds. It made perfect sense.
Yes. Very different way of thinking about ourselves.
The ability to control our mind and thoughts will determine how the external world appears to us and affects us. It can change our attitude to life and the people around us. Thank you Swamiji for this gem of a lesson.
Indeed Pavitaji. It is a lesson we can use everyday in our lives.
Thank you Swami Mukundanand ji , i learnt how tolerance power helps to enhance inner strength to handle the unpleasant situation !
Tolerance, Forgiveness etc. the byproduct of listening to this Video
Listening to Swamiji's message is the best thing one can do at the start of the day. His enthusiasm is infectious and has the power to inspires and encourage us through out the day.
Day 3 MMC is very applicable to the present Covid-19 time when so many things are beyond our control. Look forward to the gems of wisdom and practical tool to manage the problems in our lives.
Very true.
During hardships is when we grow the most spiritually.
Yes, this Video is very apt for the Present time.
So rightly said.
One after another Swamiji keep bringing out the pearl from his ocean of knowledge
Every statement is full of wisdom. Must listen carefully, contemplate and then put into practice.🌹🙏🙏🌹
Yes, I agree. Every word of this Video is carefully chosen and hence has to be contemplated deeply.
Plan on making it a everyday practise.
Remember, happiness is a choice! It is a state of mind! Wonderful message!
Precious Gem of knowledge on this Day-3: Peace of mind is our internal matter has nothing to do with external world.
The outer world is created by God. How can it be bad? It is mind that needs this alignment with the perfection He has created and that is our responsibility. Thank you Swamiji for these great thoughts.
MMC Day#3! Eagerly waiting for next one in this series! This is going to be very interesting one.. about Problems!
This Video series will benefit humanity.
Subjective Idealism & Objective Idealism! Thank you for incorporating the modern and Western philosophical view points as well! It makes this discussion complete from all the perspectives!
So much clarity in today's lecture. Really drove the message home. Thank you Swamiji
Yes so true.
Swamiji shares such perfect stories and examples to make his point!
Surabhiji 🙏👍👌👏examples & stories simplifies the complicated wisdom from scriptures 🙏😀😁
" We often tie the peace of our mind with external situations. But these externals are not in our control. The external world is not bad. It is perfectly designed not for our comfort but our spiritual growth." 🙏🏻🌸
Pooja Ravi, good point! The only thing we have control over is what we think inside, not on the externals.
Very true. It's really a great tool to live peacefully.
Swamiji explains the the external & internal worlds so well, that we can now realize that rising in spirituality is totally within us.
Yes, the external world is designed for our spiritual growth. When we think this way, we will not grumble for anything.
Yes. Just ignore the external and focus on the internal!!
Swamiji has so beautifully provided anatomy of our internal and external world and the causes of our unhappiness. His statements strike to me so profoundly .. that the external circumstances are not in our hand and our internal world is our mental construct.. external circumstances vs internal response .. need to ornament ourselves from within .. every statement conveys wisdom!🌹🙏🙏🙏🌹
Divine knowledge is the best gift you can give to anyone - it transforms them permanently! Thank you Swamiji 👍🙏🙏
Indeed! So thankful for for this youtube channel and #MMC
Also, Divine knowledge transcends Lifetimes
Swamiji so aptly describes the story of the neophyte yogi who was able to do his meditation once he made peace with his internal world. To do our work better this is the exact state of mind needed. Such great truth.
We have to learn to manage our mind and attitude . We need to embark on a journey within ourselves .
This video totally redefines freedom. We are always free, despite what circumstances are around us. The externals do not define our freedom as we think. Freedom is when we transcend the externals by using the power of our mind. We become unshackled from disturbance.
Love your interpretation!
Eagerly waiting for the MMC Day #3
Understood Swamiji's power of speaching. I also understand that only listeng can I do. He is an ocean.As much as Ican fill with his divine words within me. Always grateful to him.I love u Swamiji let be a particle of ur holy charan
Yes! Berkeley said World is in our mind! Like a dream
Very true!! Ou inner world is our own creation!
Swamiji showing us the powerful path for everlasting inward Happiness however challenging are the external circumstances
When they say the world is mithay, they are referring to the inner world that we created with our likes, dislikes, hatred, aversions and imagination. The external world is real and created by the almighty. I really loved this explanation and it helped me to connect the dots. Also made me ponder how vast is the world that I created :), time to correct and purify the defective inner world. Thank you Swamiji.
Well judged, Awesome!
Nicely put!
Very Nicely Said.
What a beautiful way Swamiji explains the path to Happiness and spiritual growth so that common man understands🙏
Swamiji is recommending response analysis. Our mind needs to know the response
Prachiji. 🙏very true . We need to learn how to respond and maybe keep quiet 👍
Yes we can choose our response
very true. Response we can control
We need to choose the best possible response that will benefit us.
Agree and this analysis is under our control to choose.
Radhe Radhe🌹🌹🌹Thankyou Swamiji🌹🌹🌹🌹
Beautiful ' serenity prayer' narrated by Swamiji.
I love that Prayer.
Loved today's video, such amazing content. Thanks Swamiji for explaining how external world is not mithya. And the frog and Yogi example showed us how one can achieve better results once we have accepted the things we can not change in the external world.
I'm so excited
Proud of you Laksh!! :)
Ishavasya upanishad states God is everywhere. Another powerful virtue of God to meditate on. Swamiji truly shares gems of wisdom
Awesome day 3 vid
While associating with Swamiji, I have learned how negative circumstances are essential for inner and spiritual growth. I never had this knowledge before, but now, thanks to Swamiji, I am trying to learn humbleness, patience, and many more from each negative situation.
True! We can't change the externals🤷♀️
Yes! We can only change and perfect our inner world!
So change the internals
Swamiji's intense wisdom multiplies by every video. 🙏🏻🌸
Happiness is a choice we make irrespective of the circumstances
Another gem about to be revealed.
How beautifully you differentiate the inner world and external world, swamiji.
Lesson learned - Accept that external situations are not always in my control. Do not tie internal peace and happiness with an external situation. Learn to make a prudent response to an external situation which is beyond my control. Thanks so much for #MMC
Very well said, change your inner world instead of blaming the external world....
@@gayathris2776 Never thought spirituality would be so simple. Had been looking in scriptures. We just need to work on our mind - everything else will be arranged by the Universe.
Awesome graphics and videography
