Knowledge of something is different , but implementing it is different . We spend hours in physical worship , make pilgrimages but our fickle mind wanders away soon from the object of devotion . Physical involvement is necessary ; but more important is mental alignment to God with faith , surrender and loving adoration . God is happier with our mental attachment .
Such a beautiful lecture.. When we don't know what to do to control mind and actions, just surrender the mind to god and guru and work according to the higher purpose..❤❤ Thankyou swamiji 🙏
In the materialistic world our mind, intellect both are so merged that the false Happiness taste as very sweet. Deep faith is lacking in us. It is the lack of depth of knowledge about God, soul, body and if some knowledge gain is there by saints still intellect is not believe so strongly. Thanks swamiji for nice teachings ❤❤
Radhey Radhey!!In physical Bhakti we are engaged in devotion but the mind is distracted.This is because our intellect doesn’t have faith in God to surrender as it is defective in material conditioned state.When we run our intellect according to divine knowledge and do actions accordingly then the mind automatically is controlled 🙏
Wow, mind blowing lecture! The three defects of our mind is anitya, where is gets attached and runs after the temporary things in life thinking that those our permanent, Anatma, where it thinks of itself as the body and not the soul, and dukheshu, or desires for material things that only results in miseries. In order to free ourselves of all these we need to surrender our minds to God, physical practices or austerities are not important, they are there to help us train our minds so we can engage our minds to God and in addition to our minds, we need to surrender our intellect as well. Cant wait to hear more about the process!
What we are doing we have to attach our mind to God then our work will be Karmayog and also increases our Bhakti bhab otherwise all will remain physical form only. Thank you Swamiji.... Radhe Radhe 🙏💐❤️
Details between Mind and intellect , how to control Mind through Intellect, why offering of intellect to God is important, First have Faith in God and perform actions accordingly will result in heart resonating with God conscience ness, Swamiji making it simple to understand and adopt for all of us 🙏
Swamiji explained beautifully and in simple words how the mind can be controlled by the intellect. If we provide divine knowledge to our intellect, it will be easily convinced that loving God selflessly is the true purpose of our life. Our mind and intellect needs to remember that we are the soul and not the body. Tru happiness lies in loving God. Radhey Radhey.
Its true the mind is controllable by the intellect. Swamiji explained the whole concept so rationally, from the indian philosophical perspective, amazing🌷
Thank you Swamiji for sharing this verse. The part where it's described that the intellect is not fully resolved makes me feel humbled that this is a journey and I have to keep making steady progress. Such an impactful video overall! Swamiji describes the reality of us materially conditioned souls and the tools to bring ourselves to that resolved state where everything we do will be the result of surrendering the mind and intellect to God and Guru.
Thank you pujaniya Swamiji for such a thought provoking discourse. We humans are blessed with an intellect to control our wandering mind. Supreme Bhagwan does not want anything material out of us, instead he only wants us his tiny fragments of souls to surrender our mind and intellect completely by detaching from the material world and instead attaching it to him. Radhey Radhey!
God gives importance to what we are thinking not what we are doing. Physically we may be engaged in any type of activity but if it's intended for the pleasure of God and Guru that attracts the grace of God.
Intellect should be trained to make it firm. We need to follow our guru’s instructions and wisdom and always be on that path, increasing hunger for god.
Our bondage or liberation is depend upon our state of mind. We can control our mind by our intellect. But we must empower our intellect with good beliefs and thoughts.🙏🙏
The intellect which is beyond intelligence, needs to be in tune with the Divine wisdom, thereby following the higher level path. We've great examples from the scriptures & Guru's wisdom to throw light on different paths to choose from and surrender the Intellect in God's consciousness.
Radhe Radhe Swami ji, dandvat pranam🙏 I was literally engulfed by the way of your explanation to this Bhagavad Gita verse and in the end you just mentioned about the next verse and the video got over... I felt like left behind in this process and really want to know and learn about the next verse you explained.. Can any of the bhakt in your association please share the link of the next verse mentioned at the end of the video by Swami ji ?
Thank you Swamiji for a gem of wisdom. Your stories and examples are inspiring . Our mind is the one that needs to be in devotion. With absorbing our mind in God, we can bath in the Ganga or can visit any tirth places. More important is to offer our intellect to God instead of thinking about the material objects. Thank you Swamiji 🙏🏻
My Guruji has explained so well and in all the lectures he has said that cultivate right and correct belief in the intellect. Once it is done then it is very easy to control the mind. We all have knowledge but the reason we are not utilising the intellect because the belief is still not strong and we are getting trapped in Maya and postponing the path of Spirituality. Utilise the three steps to empower the intellect 1. Shravan 2. Mannan 3. Nidhidhyasan Surrender completely to Guru and God. Follow six rules of surrender and every moment analyse the thoughts and actions with these rules for self-improvement. I guarantee you once you do it everyday then life changes completely. Mine changed and all because of my Guru Swami Mukundananada. I am so fortunate that I am his disciple and under his teaching everyday I am improving. Jai Siya Ram and Hare Krishna
Swamiji says intellect is so important in our life. We move in our life in accordance with the beliefs of our intellect. So when we surrender our intellect to God, our intellect will act in accordance of that higher knowledge. Thank you Swamiji for this beautiful knowledge. 🙏🙏
Amazing explanation by Swamiji. Mind is so powerful and it is the root cause of bondage and liberation. Our mind is searching happiness in the wrong direction, so we are experiencing miseries in life. We need to run the intellect by divine knowledge to get divine bliss. Thank you Swamiji for this enlightening lecture.
This bliss of this world is an illusion only, and we are spirits incapable of using our minds to control our senses. In order to fully use this human life and ensure a happy future, it is therefore important to establish a connection with a divine personality that possesses the capacity to assist us in elevating ourselves into a state of boundless benefits. After Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, I have never seen a saint like our Pujniya Swamiji in my belief and experience, who has the ability to grant us the nectar of that heavenly fulfilment and contentment. Numerous souls are being transformed by him into the next level through his amazing talks, brilliant writings, and of course his divine presence. Numerous souls are regularly coming across this reality. I sincerely appreciate Swamiji's ceaseless efforts in helping us understand this amazing concept.
Gaining knowledge is only part of the journey. True devotion lies in not just acquiring knowledge, but also deeply contemplating it and rigorously implementing it in our daily lives. It's about embodying the teachings and principles we've learned into our actions and behaviors. While reading, listening, and writing are important aspects, they only contribute to about half of our efforts. The other half is completed when we actively apply what we've learned in our day-to-day lives. This integration is what leads to true transformation and spiritual growth.
Our intellect should be aligned with Guru and act accordingly. Intellect has to decide firmly that there is no happiness in the world and then detachment will happen
Swamiji illumines our mind with divine knowledge presented in Bhagavad Gita. The 12th chapter is the Bhakti yog which is one of the most important chapters in Bhagavad Gita.. Thank you Swamiji for explaining the meaning so beautifully.. We have to make all our thoughts Godly and full of love and gratitude to God.. 🙏
We have done physical bhakthi for many lifetimes till now. Let us move ahead in this life by doing bhakthi with our mind. Let all our thoughts be for God's pleasure. Be conscious of him all the time . Thanks Gurudev 🙏🙏🙏
Radhey Radhey Swamiji 🙏 You explained very well the Chapter 12 verse 8 , on how to align our Intellect with God consciousness . ShriKrishna is saying that knowledge is not enough to lead us to Him . The intellect which we have received by His Grace ; should control the mind and offer it to God and keep God as our focal point .
God has sent us down into this world to purify our mind , love, serve and make Him happy. All we need to do now is surrender completely to the Lord and He will take care the rest.
Swamiji's logically way of explaining the topic is awesome. God asks us to give our mind and intellect. Our eternal father, our well wisher, care taker....asking us to give something, why there is a need to hesitate? Give it right away keeping staunch faith on Him. He will take care. But ask only one thing "God, give us only devotion so that we love you selflessly for your pleasure".
We keep on waiting for god's grace to purify our mind but swamiji says to use our intellect in the direction of the guru's teachings. When we are able to fully decide that the right place to seek happiness is in God, then we will move like an arrow towards him.❤️🙏
I am so grateful I found someone who is teaching about the Vedas!!!! I would like to share that I died in hospital and remained in a coma, and I traveled in the spirit world, when I woke I was a COMPLETELY different person! I know this sounds crazy but I traveled on sound and vibrations in the coma, I know now its the sound of these Sanskrit chants I also played a flute to make an atmosphere to travel on sound with other spirits who were teaching me. I am very different now, for the better. Thank you for teaching the Vedas, I am American but my soul has had many lives.
The actual meanings of 'offering of mind and intellect to God' have been explained so nicely. Really our consciousness will be united with God if we offer these two things to God.
The only purpose of human life is to serve God in every way. He sends us here for this purpose only. By coming to this material world we have forgotten our own self and misleading our own mind and intellect.So when we surrender our mind and intellect completely to God,keep Him with us every moment and do all our duties, He guides us , helps us and protects us. Without fear of anything we can do everything perfectly. Swamiji nicely said.
The idea that God created the world and humans for a specific purpose or to serve God's purpose is a common belief in many religious traditions. However, the nature of that purpose and the reason for the existence of suffering and evil in the world are subjects of much debate and interpretation. Some believe that the challenges and suffering in the world are a test of faith or a means of spiritual growth. Others see them as part of a larger divine plan that is beyond human understanding. Still, others question why a benevolent and all-powerful God would create a world where such suffering exists. Ultimately, the answers to these questions may vary depending on individual beliefs and interpretations. It's a topic that invites deep reflection and contemplation on the nature of existence, the role of God, and the purpose of life.
The actual implementation of true knowledge is far more significant then doing physically labour. The actual bhakti is when you surrender your mind to god. Which is the actual purpose of our life. So well explained by Swami ji with beautiful examples.🙏
Among all the internal machinery we possess, the intellect is supreme. The beliefs we hold in our intellect can control the functioning of our mind. But our intellect has its own limitations; the knowledge it holds is subject to four kinds of defects: karanapatav, bhrama, pramada and vipralipsa. With so many defects inherent, we cannot rely on our intellect that it will take our mind on the right path. The best way is to connect our intellect with a flawless source, that is, with God and a bona fide Guru. हरि भक्ति नौका पै गोविन्द राधे। बैठ जा पतवार हरि को थमा दे।। हरि यदि थामे न तो गोविन्द राधे। पतवार गुरुदेव कर में थमा दे ।।
Very valuable knowledge for today's world. We are running around temples around the country as a checklist as if god is going to verify that and allow us to his divine abode after our time is over in this birth. He knows where our mind has been all the time. You cannot expect an ocean of divine bliss when you offer only a raindrop. Now that does not mean you have to give up everything and go on pilgrimage forever. Just keep watching where your mind is when you say you are doing physical bhakti. You can sit at home and engage in roop dhyan and see how much you can focus on god. Day by day practice it and make it a habit and get involved with more devotional service for the pleasure of god
Swamiji is such a breath of fresh air. I just enjoy every word he has to say. I have his books as well and needless so say they too are beautifully written! Thank you Swamiji for your words of wisdom and encouragement.
Physical bhakti seems all over the world .Mind is not being concentrated.Swamiji awares us to do bhakti with mind. We can do physical bhakti but With mind we do bhakti it is fruitful. Sri Krishna says to offer our mind to Lord and intellect too. No need to go to long distance to visit Lord. Pranams to Swamiji
Such an enlightening message swamiji on so many aspects. Very true that if we bring right knowledge to intellect then our mind will be controlled. We should bring the knowledge that happiness we seek can be found in God and not in worldly things. ❤❤❤
Love Swamiji’s expressions, especially how he says to be “rotating the beads of the mind.” To offer the mind to God from where we are is next step. Offering the intellect, discriminating power, to God is an even more powerful offering. If the intellect has the faith this can happen.
Pranaam Swamiji! Radhey Radhey 👏 I am writing down all the questions, hoping that if I ever get a chance to meet you face to face, I will definitely ask them all. I have found your way of explaining things to be the most understandable! Very nice content as always!

True form of Bhakti is surrender your intellect completely to God.
Thank you! Swamiji for explaining about offering our mind to God Krishna. How to make our intellect work for us.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Good thoughts and meditation on God's form should be kept in the mind every moment.Thank You Swamiji ❤
Living according to scriptural knowledge and Guru's instruction purifies the intellect. Attaching the mind to God purifies the mind...❤️😇🙏
Great video! Very informative and well-presented."

Swamiji has given ancient wisdom wrapped in practical application. It’s by resolve you can change your life
We should run our intellect according to the divine knowledge of the Guru and the scriptures.
You direct my intellect towards god Krishna ❤❤❤ forever thankful to you swamiji
The actual meanings of 'offering of mind and intellect to God' have been explained so nicely. Really our consciousness will be united with God if we offer these two things to God.
That- we should have all faith on god & guru& act only as per them
We must attach our mind in God. We must surrender our mind and intellect to God

It is so important to involve mind in sadhana to attain God 🙏
The doer of devotion is the only Mind. We have to engage more and more to our mind on God.
Among all the internal machinery we possess, the intellect is supreme. The beliefs we hold in our intellect can control the functioning of our mind. But our intellect has its own limitations; the knowledge it holds is subject to four kinds of defects: karanapatav, bhrama, pramada and vipralipsa. With so many defects inherent, we cannot rely on our intellect that it will take our mind on the right path. The best way is to connect our intellect with a flawless source, that is, with God and a bona fide Guru. हरि भक्ति नौका पै गोविन्द राधे। बैठ जा पतवार हरि को थमा दे।। हरि यदि थामे न तो गोविन्द राधे। पतवार गुरुदेव कर में थमा दे ।।
When we surrender our mind and intellect to God and perform our worldly activities then our life becomes blissful 🙏

Manaka Manaka pher, it’s the mind that needs to be engaged not just the body.
We should surrender ourselves in feet of God
Thank you Swamiji for this eternal wisdom
Love Swamiji’s expressions, especially how he says to be “rotating the beads of the mind.” To offer the mind to God from where we are is next step. Offering the intellect, discriminating power, to God is an even more powerful offering. If the intellect has the faith this can happen.
