Swajan : Naam-smaran of bhagawan is the only one direct path to experience bhagawan. Why there is so much of confusion and uncertainty about it in-spite of knowing this?
Pujya Shree Mota : The soul that struggles with the heartfelt enthusiasm and bhava, does not have too much of confusion and uncertainty. There is only one straight path for us. We should try to concentrate all our energy in naam-smaran. At the same time we should try to change our original human nature so that our beloved bhagawan's bhava can stabilized in our adhar (mind, intellect, chitta, prana and ego). Sadhak who wants to experience bhagawan must know his own tendencies and nature very well.
Living life according to tendencies and nature will increase its grip. Tendencies and nature means the totality of nature collected over many births. Whenever these old impressions from many births spring up in the mind, let it pass by without getting caught up in its flow or the influence. Whenever thoughts arise do not get entangled in its flow and do not form chain of thoughts. Similarly whenever natural tendencies (vrutties) arise do not be swept away in its flow meaning keep on reducing the force of attachment, jealousy, desire and anger. We should keep awareness whenever desires, anger etc, arise and at that time pray to God with heartfelt sincerity that all we want is only your joy and delight and nothing else. The intense enthusiasm to call for help from the heart is our strength. We do not get discouraged from any obstructions in the path due to such inner strength.
