For
decades Swamishri has been
guiding others towards God.
Inspiring them in times of
hardship; consoling them in
times of sadness, he has been a
constant source of light in their
lives when there has been only
engulfing darkness. But what
has been his source of inspiration
over the years? How has he
managed to remain composed
during incidents of both honour
and insult? What drives him to
push himself night and day in the
service of others? Delving into
the depths of his heart we find
the source of his light...

Swamishri
has met many different people from all over the world. How does he
see all these people...

| Question
1 |
 |
Ghanshyamcharan Swami : If you are trying to convince someone and
they remain stubborn and don’t accept what you say, then do
you lose your temper?
|
 |
Swamishri : What will we achieve by losing our temper? We try to
talk to them but if they don’t listen, then we have to step
down! After all we are God’s devotees and so is he!
|
|
What if after listening to two parties’ grievances,
you try to make a settlement between them but neither is willing
to compromise. Then do you get angry?
|
|
Swamishri : We try our best to make both parties understand, but
if neither of them does, then only they will have to suffer.
|
|
What if someone doesn’t accept what you say, yet
he still stands in front of you for darshan. What do you feel when
you see him?
|
|
Swamishri : If he doesn’t accept it or understand it, then
what can we do? If he is not satisfied today, how will he be satisfied
tomorrow? Sooner or later he will realise his ignorance. Our faults
can hinder us anytime, anywhere. We will only ever be happy if we
remove our faults. As for him, he will realise his faults in his
own time, but I never develop a dislike for him.
