Query:
What
daily routine I should follow which will help me in leading a spiritual life?
Vijay Kumar:
Every
human being has to lead two lives simultaneously. One the physical life controlled
by the Ego and the second, the spiritual life governed by I of the innerself,
atman the soul within. We may desire or not but inherently we worship the Omnipotent
Creator be it in form of a ritual or reading of Sacred texts. We seek the blessings
of the Creator to keep us away from the unknown happenings which may retard our
physical journey. The fear of the unknown takes us to the temples, churches and
mosques.
You
have undertaken engineering profession ... you would want to be a great success
in your field and simultaneously want to pursue the Spiritual quest!
The
physical journey is best guided by the character of Rama and hence we must read
Ramcharitmanas, for any human being can never rise above what maryada purushottam
Rama was. Leave apart the Spiritual inclination of Rama, he was the king of Ayodhya
par excellence. None could beat him in his time.
You
must devote your self exclusively to your Profession. Maintain total integrity,
honesty and sincerity coupled with hard work. This shall give you satisfaction
as a human being.
Apart from your profession ... your Spiritual quest would be satisfied if you
read sacred literature along with biographies and autobiographies. Books
on Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Ramana Mahirshi would give a great impetus
to your quest. Don't fall into the ritual of going to a Temple. Seek
the company of knowledgeable people who have either seen God or Realized God.
Clarify your Spiritual doubts. Read only Bhagavad Gita at this stage. Bhagavad
Gita available from Gita press, Gorakhpur would suffice your requirements. Do
Satsangs only with like minded people. Do not ever enter into Spiritual gossip
as is the trend the days.
As you alleviate yourself even more profound questions would face you. For any
query of which you think you do not have the proper answer ... e-mail it to me
and I shall reply to your complete satisfaction. As you proceed on this journey
I shall release those gems of Spiritual Doctrine which you shall never find in
any book.
May
God bless you in your the Spiritual endeavour.
Always
there to clarify your queries (send
your query),
