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

Govindbhai Sathvara: How can one perform ashtang yoga?
Answer


Swamishri: [after observing the old man’s frail body] Instead of aspiring to perform ashtang yoga, reach above its steps and aim for the top. Now is the time to take a less demanding approach to God. With ashtang yoga there is always the risk of failing halfway. All you have to do is learn to love God, do bhakti, dhyan, bhajan, and mala. We’ve found a pure Sadhu
now attach yourself to him, follow his commands and do bhakti.

Question

What is Satsang?
Answer

Swamishri: Affinity with God, who is the eternal truth; with scriptures and dharma; and with the Satpurush. If one can find such a Satpurush, automatically one attains the other three - he instills faith in God, nurtures love for the scriptures, teaching one the true interpretations of the holy texts. And he’ll inspire one to live according to dharma.
