To measur whether it is humility or depression, check whether you are advancing spiritually or going down.
Radhanath SwamiPure love of God is our nature, but we are so much diverted, so much distracted by the externals that we've forgotten that it's our essence.
Radhanath SwamiIf we have strong desire then God miraculously removes obstacles and gives us the power to overcome them.
Radhanath SwamiIn my path, three things are really important. One is associating with people who inspire us with their positive influence. The company we keep is very important. Number two is our spiritual practice. Putting aside sacred time every day to make that journey within, to tune into the frequency of our true nature and the love and the grace that is within us. Number three is to try living with ethical, moral and spiritual values, which culminates in unselfish service.
