Searching Question Fulfilling Answer
Each person struggles through

life. For some the trials are

overpowering, for others a bored

status quo prevails,and

for a minority mountains are

pounded to dust in

the search for meaning and joy.

Within the invisible depths of

each soul there is a yearning.

A need to know ‘Why?’.

‘Why do we live?’,

‘Why do we experience problems?’,

‘Why are we travellers on the

journey of life?’.

In the search for answers to

their uncertainties many turn to

the God-realised Sadhu.

Question

K. Raghunathan: How can the mind be harnessed?
Answer

Swamishri: By offering any of the nine types of bhakti. The nature of the mind is such that it will always desire worldly pleasures and try to deceive us, but if we engage it in devotion by listening to spiritual discourses or singing kirtans, gradually it becomes purified and eventually stable.
