There are three types of seva according to the scriptures. The first and foremost is serving God and Guru with mind (Manasi seva); the second type is serving God and Guru with our body; the third type is serving God and Guru with our wealth. The highest kind of seva is Manasi seva (serving with Mind in our meditation); however, it is the most difficult one and to achieve perfection in this, we need to do the second and third type of seva (serving with body and wealth), based on our capability. If one has a healthy body and has wealth, but he doesn't serve God and Guru with either the body or wealth and says, "I will only serve with mind," it is considered hypocrisy. The second and third type seva have to be done in order to be able to do Manasi seva. When we serve God and Guru with everything we have, we attract their divine grace. We progress faster in our devotion.This can only be experienced by oneself. Some examples of serving with mind: Meditate that Shri Krishna is standing before us, now we are bathing Him, we are dressing Him with very beautiful clothes. We are making beautiful garlands for Him and offering Him. We are offering Him the most beautiful ornaments. We are offering Him the best perfume. We are cooking and feeding Him delicious sattvic food. We are fanning Him while He eats. We are massaging His feet when He takes rest. We can also do any other kind of seva we like based on our own unique devotional sentiments. There is no restriction. The only thing we have to keep in mind is that we serve Him in order to make him happy. The same kind of Manasi seva should be done for Guru as well. In fact, in raganuga bhakti, devotion to Guru is first and foremost as there is no place for a devotee in the spiritual world without the Guru. Seva with body: Cleaning temple of God etc., massaging the feet of our Gurudev, cooking for him, cleaning his ashram and other related physical duties following his instructions. Seva with wealth: Donating our wealth to our Gurudev to assist him in his spiritual mission. Seva also means following Guru's instruction. If we want to serve Guru in some way, but our guru does not want that, then it is not considered 'seva'. (Please note that these instructions are taken from various discourses by Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj that are also found in a book called 'Guru Seva'.)

Jesus loves you . He is God kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h7apqqZ1krq3lGQ.html

Namaste 🙏 Can you please explain what you mean by serving God and Guru? I'm not a Hindu, I understand God but I don't understand the concept of Guru in which you use it. Please elaborate more on this "Guru" aspect. Namaskar

@@XolisileMnguni guru is someone who leads you to the path of God realisation. This video itself is of Swami Mukundananda,who is one of the great spiritual guru's of our times. One cannot understand the divine knowledge, without the grace of a guru. So first you should find a guru who resonates with you . Radhe Radhe

The Lord Jesus loves you . If you don t believe , watch this 6 minutes video . 6 minutes is not much , surely you can make time

someone here is trying to convert thy self @manish

That's great, it means that you benefit from him spiritually. Try to always watch his channel until your faith has been restored

Same. I watch him everyday. I'm a competitive exam student but 30,45min his lectures.

Wow, beautiful testimony, description. Sunshine will always come, at some point, then our complaints during rain can even feel, how to say, not so nice. 🙏

Very nice

Yes my friend.. God says to love him not to fear him.. You will naturally do all that is said out of love... Nothing Can be followed out of fear for long.. Always remember love is permanent and peace.. Anything fearful will create chaos and stress.. ❤

Jagadguru gave this mantra to us in Fremont, California, USA, in 2007...RadheShyam

First, the souls are eternal, i.e., they were never created by God, according to the Vedic scriptures. They have existed ever since God has existed. They are sentient just like God is sentient. It is another matter that a soul is infinitesimally small while God is infinite. God is the controller of Maya while the soul is being controlled by Maya (or material energy of God). Secondly, the Vedic scriptures say that until our mind becomes 100% pure and cleansed, we can never receive the Divine Love of God. This is the spiritual law of God. The mind purification happens through devotional practice when a soul constantly engages in loving remembrance of God and sheds tears of intense longing for God, for His divine vision and for His selfless service. Another eternal law of God is that He won't give Divine Love directly to any soul but via a God-realized Saint who has attained Divine Love. If someone says I have attained Divine Love of God, then he must be a God-realized Saint and he must have transcended the cycle of life and death. But a God-realized Saint never openly claims that he has attained Divine Love. However, there are certain divine symptoms that manifest in his material body. Through these symptoms, one can get a faint idea that He is a God-realized Saint who has attained Divine Love.

I dont think you understood what Swamiji is saying. Again you are asking god for give me give me give me.

Whatever we get in this material-world is the result of our past karma ( good or bad deeds done by us knowingly or unknowingly). Even then merciful Bhagwan krishna gives us enough to survive here. If we love Him whole heartedly, he certainly gives us whatever is beneficial for us but the tragedy is that we don't love Him , we only love this perishable material world .

Very few knows this..India's curse
