Dear all,
I have spent about the last 30 minutes chanting the Maha Mantra and feel very calm and relaxed.
This was after reading chapter 7 of the Gita. I then asked Krishna for guidance in selecting for me a passage in the Holy Vedas.
The reason for this is that Krishna clearly states in chapter 7 that one should engage solely in prayer to Krishna if one wants to excape samsara. The passage in the Vedas I was directed to was Yajur 22.5:
"It moves, it moves not.
It is far, and it is near,
It is within all this,
And it is outside all this."
The next passage I read was about the Golden Embryo, Atharva 4.2.7
I felt after reading both of these that I was satisfied.
The reason I post all this is that I felt strongly directed by Lord Krishna in my prayers this evening and yet I still find it extremely difficult to "let go" and let Krishna guide me, despite choosing freely to worship Him.
I have a nagging doubt in my mind, and I don't know why, as I would love nothing more than to devote myself better to His service.
What helps you with your faith?
Many thanks.
Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti.
