Principles Of Gita 1) Control the urge to get provoked (We are constantly being provoked in our life) 2) Control the urge to control the situation.(Many things in life are beyond our control) 3) Control the Urge to convince others. Control the urge to convince people to agree with your opinion or narrative. 4) Control the urge to compete. Many people are better than you at different levels. Your aim should be to add value to other life to the best of your ability.

Wow. My uncle sent me this link. We know him as Anand. He is my moms cousin! We have lived through his transition, and we remember when he decided to join Hari Krishna and now is Gauranga Das. We never understood it at the time, but he has done tremendously well and has helped so many people. We are very proud of him. He visited us in Novi Michigan maybe 16 years ago? God bless you! Great interview. We learned something new in this interview

We need more people like Jay Shetty... The world actually need more healers, story tellers and lovers of all kinds rather than successful people

I never knew people thought that way about Monks, even growing up in the Hood, I always thought of Monks as almost super human, humble souls, that had knowledge of the universe and amazing control over themselves and their minds.

I like that" Self control is the greatest freedom". Plant kindness and gather love is the best way to live.

This CD has three separate relaxation/meditation sessions on it kzfaq.infoUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq guided by a very pleasant and direct male voice. Unlike so many other products of its type, this CD does not have bad synthesizer music, does not feature a phony or affected style of narration, and does not make any bogus claims to be subliminal or to re-train the brain or any of that balderdash. What you get is 1. a guided meditation for getting into a pleasantly relaxed state of body awareness while taking a stroll (superb for those easing back into a fitness routine slowly after an illness or injury) 2. A nice long breath-awareness relaxation session that if followed diligently can put you into very deep states of full-body relaxation and mental calmness, and 3. a buddhist-inspired meditation session designed to help you develop and maintain feelings of loving kindness toward not just yourself and your friends, but toward people you don't even like. The CD makes no claims to be designed for advanced meditators or for buddhists or hindus/yoga practitioners looking for very deep and esoteric stuff. It is geared more toward the average person who just wants to develop the habit of relaxation and stress relief through natural, healthy means. him, if you happen to be reading this, keep up the good work fella, and I love your accent. I would also like to note that I have never fallen asleep while listening to this product. I would like to kindly suggest to the reviewer who said this CD makes him fall asleep, that he might want to get checked to see if he has a sleep disorder, or if he is simply not setting aside ample time for restful sleep at night. A healthy person getting adequate rest at night should be able to go into deep states of mental relaxation without dozing off, if not all the time, then most of the time.

I love the way he looks at Jay. Almost like as if he saw him for the first time, even though he probably knows him for decades

TOLERATE our urge to consume, control and convince and RESIST our urge to compete 🙏🌞🤝🌞🙏 Done🤞

It was great meeting Prabhuji the other day, what a beautiful podcsst we recorded for BeerBicepes channel 🙏❤️ Govinda, Govinda, Shri Hari Bol

The secret to life, do everything with enthusiasm and serve but dont be looking for the outcome. This interview was so beautiful and practical, Jay, keep recommending the reading of the B Gita.

You can be emotional AND a strong leader.

I live in Australia born New Zealand I love the way monks they are so humble & caring If everyone thought like them we would live in a better world

Jaya Srila Prabhupada - the reason why both can even talk with each other.

This is so beautiful Prabhuji. I was mocking your book think like a monk when I first saw it, I was living in the ashram in soho london, and my brahmin friend actualy showed it too me xD. Now 1 year later, I left the temple, I am in a way fighting for my own now, and I regret the mockery made before. I feel realy sheltered by your podcast Jay Prabhu, and inspired to keep going. I stayed as a monk 3 years, and I an also very sensitive but have so much desire to be a better person and connect people to this wisdom, only I'm not in a good situation right now. So I take so much guidance listening to you, thank you very much. Hare Krsna ❤

Cant resist to comment..his analogy has just sparked a new perspective..that's called awakened soul in true sense

Gauranga das is so good at storytelling.

To tolerate a provoking situation is indeed a Virtue to develop. Thank you for bringing up this awareness.

I loved that interview. Definitely the Vaishnava monks know what love is. ❤️ Love in Action. Love in Service. ❤️🙏🏼💎

Gaurang Das ji Pranam.Pearls of wisdom and nuggets of such clarity. Your command on scriptures is awe inspiring.

Millionaires are made in crash, so the more stocks drop, the more I buy, in the meanwhile I'm just focused on making better investments and earning more, apparently there are strategies to 3x gains in this present market cos I read of someone that pulled a profit of $350k within 2months, and it would really help if you could make a video covering these strategies.

When he said the possible negative impressions ("lazy", etc) of monks it was like nails on a chalkboard(x100)!!! I have never heard such a thing, or anything negative about monks? We have always respected them as devoted disciplined servants of Lord. I just had to state it: please know most people have nothing but respect and admiration for monks of any faith. 🙇🏻‍♀️

Cancers of the mind: comparing, criticizing, complaining. GAURANGA DAS

Both of my mentors together🙏Thank you so much for this podcast🙏

Gauranga Das episodes are always great. So much learning and wisdom from a humble man. Thanks Jay for this beautiful conversation 🌺❤⭐

So clearly explained Prabhuji 🙏 Love is all of selfless pleasing and tireless servicing .Freedom comes with discipline and detachment , being dutiful.....Many many Sradha and Pranam Prabhuji🙏

What a great podcast! First time of listening to Gauranga Das, his explanation of the 4 principals at 16:46 hit me deep. This will transform my life. Thank you Annoth

Thank You Maharaj ji 🙏 for sharing such a Great Teachings ,Meditation, Taste of living once spiritual life into this Material world and the pizza presentation, Jai jai Sri Radhe Radhe ji 🙏 🙌 and All glories to Srila Prabhupada ji 🙏, Hari bol..,Hare Krishna to Reporter ,thank you,Hari bol,most welcome 🙏 in Hare Krishna consciousness spiritual world, Hari bol...

Gauranga das Prabhu is brilliant. Best podcast ever. Clarity of wisdom that declutters our mind, helps us realise our true potential and act with love and compassion. This should be our primary education. Thank you 🙏. Hariiibol 💙

...there are so many pieces of wisdom that are lost in translation from one language to another that our world as a whole has that if we were able to actually share and apply so many problems would become issues and disappear from there... Thanks for the post, absolutely appreciated.

The path of service is more important than meditation...

Great wisdom from two monks. I liked the perception of freedom by discipline, it's really a life changer for me.

I love them both!!! Watch until the end, Jay is such an adorable person

Thanks Jay for bringing your mentor for the talk. Many of time times we miss out on the gurus and guides who have bought us where we are at. Gratitude. 🙏🙏

Wow!!!!! I've been in a VERY deep despair,depression from " attachments"!!!! I'm incredibly grateful to listen to this now.Thank you Namaste 😌🙏🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️☮️🕉🙏💛

This was an incredible experience for me. I come from a different religious and cultural tradition, but the explanations were all so easy to grasp and powerful: the story about the difference between pizza and New York pizza both made me smile and brought me wisdom. Thanks for this video and for sharing your life experience and wisdom. At 72, I am starting to see some of life's truths and learning more about love. This conversation was gift to me and I offer thanks for it.

Jay can you do more episodes on understanding Hinduism? Dispelling myths etc?

God! I Loved every word of this enlightening talk! Even though I have always been spiritual and deeply rooted in God love, off late I have been feeling very hurt upset and overwhelmed seeing so many crimes and atrocities. Its heartbreaking to see people hurting others and so many wrong things happening around the world to innocent people that I started questioning why did God make the world such a bad place? How can a good God allow so much bad to happen?😥 It's painful to see so much suffering and darkness in the world but coming across this video I realised I need to keep my eyes on good people and focus on playing my role to do my best selflessly and to keep striving to grow and help others as much as possible.... Don't want to focus on wrong people and bad things...We need to stay focussed on good people and good things cuz there are many kind amazing inspirational people in the world too and so much good to do♥️ Thank you so much for this interview, it has eased my heart and helped me redirect my focus to higher understanding♥️ God bless 🌟

Listening to this conversation feels like a meditation itself

Priceless! It could be a course in graduate school!

Very beautiful description of someone that wants to change the world for good... Actions , actions, action do it all.

Monks just been through quite a bit of different experiences, and through those experiences they managed to calm their emotions and their way of thinking to live a better life overall.

What a conversation.....its was so much meaningful I guess for all individual who is dealing with today's world challenges....all the best Jay....

He's right about comparison being a cancer of the mind

The word ‘religion’ is wildly different in its meaning between the East and the West. In the west, it is ‘prescriptive’ and following a book, its rules and they use many tactics to convert every person on earth to their religion (because their god is the only valid god, you don’t convert-you are going to hell). Eastern religions (actually philosophies) are ‘exploratory’ and deeply open ended and philosophical and do not force their ‘whatever’ on others. Because the basic philosophy is ‘there are several paths to the truth, yours is valid, mine is valid’. Christian missionaries, for example, spend billions every year just in India itself on religious conversion tactics. I saw this and experienced it personally.

Jay, as a house holder, you will always need society to provide for you, but as a monk, you get society to serve itself and improve life and living jgd the yogi Raj

What he said is the best i've heard about love listening to him is like listening to a book just watching him from my home talking puts me in such beautiful state of love, hope, faith and harmony. He's such an incredible person and the world is so blessed for having him

Loved your conversation. So true the Monk is. And how amazing you are Jay Shetty. More love ❤ to you.

Iam really amazed to go through this spiritual conversation. Fortunately I was happened to see this video , it gave me a new version of knowledge. I used to watch' spiritual speeches of ISCON monks,like JK yogh Mukunthananda Swamyji, Gopal Gaurji, You too a wonderful Bhagavad Gita teacher with your own versions Thank you so much for this communication 🙏🙏🙏

Really an eye- opening conversation between the two great personalities of the divine world. I love it..🪷Hare Krishna 🙏🏻

Felt so enlightened by your conversation and all that you spoke about Your perspective of life has showed me the path , of what we should be as humans Thank you

This came at a serendipitous moment for me, thanks so much, now I feel a small window is opening up for me after some hardship and perspective change...

Thanks Beloved GAURANGA DAS-jI For RAISING The CLARITY.......AND THANKS JAY SHETTY=Ji For The ENLIGHTENING PODCAST...

This is wonderful. But let me clarify one thing. Relationships might be pain but Love is not pain. Love is the ultimate healing Force. Thank you for sharing this.🙏

Well said .. learning so much from both of you .. Gratitude from the bottom of my heart 🙏

I think he wavered a little when he says Love is Selfless, but actually he said its when you are joyful, not obligated - so basically Love IS Selfish. Do something good and feel good. Why not?

16:00 to 22:00 min absolute gem principles.

What a eyes opening lecture I have ever heard, thanks respected monk you have educated me for learning the meaning of ectual love.

I love you Jay Shetty. I bought Think like a monk, a couple years ago. Possibly more then 2 years ago. Read it 3 times. Each time growing tremendously. Worked through the book and integrating the shadow work. Wow. I can’t even put it into words. How much things changed. I share with everyone I meet near and far. Your first lesson in the Montessori, breathing. Breath work is our constant through life. If we learn to breathe through these experiences. Our experiences change, when our bodies reactions change. It aligned with my reiki master teacher certification, and crystal healing journey. My purpose is to help others along their healing journey within with reiki and crystals.

This inspiring conversation was exactly what I had wished to hear, Thanks Jay🙏🙏

I was humbled by the words of Gauranga Das. I thank you both for helping me reset my thinking on what is truly worthy of our thoughts, energies and focus. I wanted to express my gratitude.

listening to this, was a refresher for my entire soul. wow.

Hi Jay, This spiritual discussion with the Swamiji is really insightful. It must have helped many spiritual seekers. I would like you to come to Pondicherry and know about the Mother and Sri Aurobindo, their unique teaching in order to bring transformation in the life of human beings. The Yoga of Sri Aurobindo and the ever shining love and light of the Mother keep the Ashram in the most organized shape. Looking forward to seeing you in Pondicherry.

Control the urge to consume, control, compete and convince. Interesting.

I feel and interpret this the exact same way he does and wonder why I can't be a monk 😊. This is awesomeness....and I do hope to master myself in this way my thoughts of it are there my efforts is intermittent but my passion is like fire so I will succeed 💪 mastery

Bhakti yoga is the highest form of yoga to give joy ❤

I love this conversation so much ! By far my favorite ❤️

I could listen to this kinda’ wisdom, insight and depth ALL DAY LONG 👌🏽 thank you both

It was really a deep conversation. Learnt lots of new insights about living life and upliftment of one's soul along with selfless service for the world around us. Thank you 🙏🏻

Well explained! The real problem is our reactions to the encountered issues... positive & negative! Equanimity is the only answer! Being SthitaPrgay is the best way!

The power of love is very well understood.overwhelmingly happy today.have seen the video multiple times.Videos like this should go viral.thank you soo much.

Thank you much for this. I needed to hear this message. What a blessing today.

THIS WAS NEEDED SINCE STARTING YOUR BOOK!

Namaskar Jay. Gauranga Das has answered each of your questions with outstanding clarity and depth. I was thrilled and felt enthusiastic to continue watching the video. I am very grateful to you for uploading this video. I am going to send the link to my friends and like-minded acquaintances. This video gives a message to the viewers that there is no substitute for spiritual practice to get everlasting happiness and contentment. You are using the teachings of your Mentor for selfless pleasing and tireless service. I am grateful to Gauranga Das for sharing his knowledge in simple and comprehensible words. God bless you both. Wish you all the best in your endeavour. Keep it up, dear Jay. Gratitude !

thanks Jai for this post. I am speechless after listening to Swamy... definition of Love is extraordinary 👌👌👏👏👏👏

Thank God, everyone doesn't choose to be a monk. We need farmers, fishers, builders, cleaners, undertakers, and carers. It takes all of us to live a life.

Thank you Jay. Thank You Gauranga Das. You both have no idea how much this video means to me. Thank you. God bless you both with long healthy lives.

awww that man touched me... Let him be blessed

Huge respect for both of you!

Prabhu Gauranga Das is my favourite Guru to learn from, he is through whom I have flourished in my spiritual learnings and inspiration. Jai Shri Krishna.

This is simply the best pod cast amazing and beautiful Thanks and I am grateful Mr jay Thank you Gaurang prabhuji

He didn’t caution us about all urges. The urge to connect, care for and collaborate are healthy? Sow tirelessly? Love? With nature, community, work and self? I’m indulging my urge to convince here but… YES!

There is peace that is emanating from this guest

I love ❤you, Jay you’re the best. Thanks for what you do. This was awesome.

Amazing sharing and connecting hearts in the most channelling way to master the mind .One best conversation I have ever heard . With Love respect and gratitude to you and your spiritual teacher 🙏

Thank you again for your healing service ~On the occasion of World Mental health Day 2022, we all have to pray for the whole world to unite as " One mainly spiritually' then all other aspects of life will automatically be harmonised 🙏

Thank Swamiji! My humble pronams...Your talk was so enriching.. there's no end to learning.

This has been the most interesting talk. Really enjoyed...thank you. Peace, 💘 and kindness to all....

So beautiful meaning to life an especially family values , comparing an competing with everyone.beautiful interview all of so still got a lot to learn, thanks for this message Jay with Guru,blessings to you both🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

Thoroughly loved listening to both of you 🙏

Hare Krishna 💙💛

This Guru & Shishya is amazing 💮🇮🇳

Thank you Master! 南无阿弥陀佛!!!

Most inspiring, most eloquent, best perspectives! Oh, I’m so happy I watched this interview!🙏

I think that we should appreciate the Baghavat Gita that made him such a good person to the world. Why Baghavat Gita is not recognised yet even in n India.

"You cannot connect a dollar value, to these values". Wow this reflection is found around 20min to 23min.

I literally just started reading your book yesterday even shared it on my IG… In awe of his grace and your own ❤️✨ Thank you for this.

Access consciousness are same in every religion so let's do it in our own faith. We need to focus on our good characters and values and introspect ourselves. ❤❤

The end really got me emotional. God bless your soul Jay, you are such an inspiration person. I appreciate you/ your podcast, keep up the phenomenal work team! 👏👏👏💙💙💙

Hare Krishna Prabhu Ji🙏

Great discussion 👍 👌 Gauranga Das ji 🙏 🙏 🙏
