Спасибо большое, Дада)
Thank you Dada for another incredible video! This has been a central part of my philosophy and practice in the last few years and have saved me so much unnecessary suffering! I have decided and realized that I can only do whatever I can do..no more no less... and I do not get attached to the result expectation.. Also, for me has helped that I took a conscious decision to do everything for the Supreme first, my community second and then for my own personal gratification. Thinking of things in this way have brought so much lightness and joy in my life... everything becomes a service made with the utmost sincerity as you mentioned and that in itself is a recipe for long lasting happiness that is beneficial for those around us as well as ourselves 🙏
Thank you dada! 🙏
I loved this video. Thank you very mutch to share this kind of information!
I was already awake when I was born. I remember feeling shocked and dismayed that no one was here. The thought came to me as no one can see out of their eyes. Of course, I was most sad that my mother seemed to not be fully present. But I suffered from a different kind of stuck. Like a kid with a secret bag of candy, I knew that a great love would be possible to pursue. But I coveted that experience instead of sacrificing it. It took many years before I was willing to embrace a real sacrifice when I said ok now I try with all my sincerity to bring my gifts no matter if this life is one with no satisfaction, no fulfillment. I take great comfort in the story of Parvati. She’s the best role model. She did MAGNIFICENT sadana. Once I decided that doing my duty was more important than having my bag of candy, I awakened. My process involved no rainbows, no sunshine, no puppies but slowly became glorious.
Very very useful video
Namaskar dada thank you❤
Thank you dada very inspiring video...i am tamasic . I do not act. I have potential to act but i don't...this makes me sad...i do meditation 2 times a day and yoga and i pray to God to light my path so to find a path, a meaningful way in life...thank you very much om shanti
Excellent lecture Dada Thank you.
Thank you Dada❤ your words are waters that sweeten my soul❤
This lecture is so inspiring Thank you Dada.
AMAZING!
Thank you, really nice video, this is one of the most important lessons i've come to learn/integrate at a more consistent and effective way this year. Once you stop resisting life and start having faith in the higher intelligence while taking meaningful action life just gets completely different, everything has a different meaning and relevance to it, It is a real blessing and I hope a lot more people can get to that point and experience life that way.
nice mountains in the background
Meditation helps me to take my life into my own hands and not be a product of circumstance. The painful experience of being impulsive and reckless is what motivates my to continue meditating and not go back to the old way.
Congratulations 🙏

Thanks brother
Thank you Dadaji 🙏 interesting talk..
Namaskar Dada, You take action and let God decide the results 🙏🏾.
Useful and interesting talk..
Swami ji please teach me ashtavakra gita
Dada, I say this to you shyly. You got so beautiful and dreamy eyed about the amazing sincerity of the archer who cut off his thumb and never complained that he was excluded. In fact, never seemed to even reckon that he was excluded. Naturally, I want to impress the guru too.
What could I ever do to make a guru dreamy eyed?!?!! Still, that’s just a little bit immature on my part.
I certainly hope and trust I would dive over the cliff with joy if honoured by that command from Guatama in the Mountains.
Still, I need a story of an amazing woman. Yes, Buddha had a great wife. She raised their son beautifully and let him go to his father when most mothers would hold tight.
Parvati unlocks me most. Even if her sadana doesn’t move you as much as some (and you have not said anything so we don’t know your opinion), she moves me.
I am so hungry for greatness in woman form. Please say more or invite Didi to say more. I am very hungry.
Namaskara
The Project you speak of began for me as an externalization of inner voices into short stories. The stories depict quite accurately the path you explain in the video, beginning as a realization that man is completely at the mercy of the universe's (or the "One's") whims. Then, the project expanded immensely after encountering the anima, and other classic Jungian archetypes. However, despite years of working on the project and branching out into visuals and audio from literature, there has always been an undercurrent of melancholy - or more accurately, it is the driving force of it all. I do not believe there is much external success to be had for what I call "inverted enlightenment" types of people. Lately I have attempted examining this topics more thoroughly, taking a step into meta-perspective, looking at my project from the outside instead of simply channeling the internal phenomena onto page and canvas. Success, such as it is, comes from inside, true - but asserting that it will inevitably come (as many 'normally' enlightened individuals tend to insist) has always seemed too broad an assumption to make. To me, it hints at the perspectival frame-bias that is common amongst the common and the enlightened folk alike. People like to universalize their experience and believe it to be the objective truth of things. That is the folly of us all. I'm sure mine too. Nevertheless, this personal truth that I outlined in this message, I believe in, as I have witnessed it to be a recurring pattern.
Like all common people objective truth always inspires. Dad is light to us. Share your objective truth. It always brings light to the unknown
Can I come to you and stay as a volunteer?
Dear Dada, are you planning to visit California? I would love to help you with any arrangement here.

i managed to whole 18 minutes focus on something else and listen to this passivaly in the background while having nothing from it :P
❤ listen again when ready
Subconscious absorb
As a goal-oriented person, I find it hard to accept the fact that most of the enjoyment has to come from the action and not from the result. I like to create things I imagine in my daydreams. I'm receiving ideas from the cosmic consciousness but working on them in real life is mostly dull work or many nights of tedious problem solving.
What if you are not happy with your effort no matter how hard you try?
Just keep on doing your best, and give the results to a higher consciousness. He will be happy with it for sure and then you also))
If you're putting in good effort, but things aren't working, try a different approach. How can you approach the problem/situation differently?
personality cannot be mature. personality, the word comes from the Greek word persona, which means a mask. and that is what personality is. a role played with the mask upon its face. We all need to play the roles and put on the masks/personalities, but that aspect of us if we are identified with can never be mature. Maturity comes when an individual is beyond personality. He can and needs to use it from time to time to function in society, but he recognizes it for what it is. a play. and he/she is never identified with it.
spirituality and philosophy never met and will never meet. they are on very different shores, so to speak.
very nice definition of a Karma Yogi. leave the results in the hands of the divine. what about action? Action is an offering. It is not me who acts, it is through me that action is performed. It is a slippery slope, but if handled properly it is a very beautiful one. it is not about giving up your responsibility, it is about surrendering yourself. and surrender was, is and will be the last step of spirituality in any form and type of Yoga or any other spiritual system.
see, you are ready to surrender the results, but not the action. it means you are only halfway through. duality arises, unity is denied. Act, but surrender the actor. That is Karma Yoga in its essence.
the ladder suggests hierarchy, and hierarchy suggests power and power corrupt. Patanjali's 1st and the 2nd sutras are essential. In the first one, he invites you on a journey if you are ready. and in the 2nd he's saying where that Journey ends. At no point in your journey, you are closer or farther away, because, upon arrival, you realise you have been always what you sought. there was never a journey, no ladder, no steps, no progress, it was all there from the very beginning. The journey was a necessary deception to wake you up. slow by slow.
for me in this context, the crucial word is the very first word of Patanjali's Sutras: "Atha" - now. are you ready? Is the pain of not knowing who you are a life-and-death situation? Are you fed up going in circles to the point that you can't bear it anymore? If yes is an answer and you are ready to do anything necessary to find out, then you can enter. Then you are accepted as a student of Yoga.
anything else just makes you sleep a bit more comfortably.
🙏
