God does not normally interfere in worldly affairs.
Resorting to Prakrti, Nature, which is My own Power, I send forth, again and again, this multitude of beings that are without any freedom, owing to Nature's sway over them. - Gita 9.8
These activities do not in any way bind Me, because I remain detached like one unconcerned in their midst. - Gita 9.9
Under My direction and control, Nature brings out this mighty universe of living and non-living beings. Thus does the wheel of this world revolve. - Gita 9.10
God intervenes for great devotees.
Whoever being devoted to me solely, engage themselves always in contemplation and worship of Me - to such eversteadfast devotees I ensure the procurement of all their wants (salvation) and the preservation of their assets. - Gita 9.22
First, Brahma created 4 mind-born eternal boys who refused to procreate. They were Sanaka, Sanatana, Sanandana and Sanatkumara.
Then he created 7 mind-born sons, namely Pulastya, Pulaha, Kratu, Angiras, Marichi, Atri and Vashishtha.
They are known as Saptarishis. These Brahmarishis are also known as Prajapatis.
This original list of 7 is found in Mahabharata (Santi Parva: Apaddharmanusasana Parva, Section 166).
However, their number and names vary to a great extent in different Puranas. The list almost always includes these 7 sages but sometimes add new names to this original list.
She married Kahalsang Gohil or Kalubha Gohil of Samdhiala villagenear present-day Bhavnagar. He was a follower of Nijiya tradition of Bhakti Movement.
The couple was religious and their home became centre of devotional activities which was small to house number of sadhus (ascetics) and people visiting.
Kīrtana (कीर्तन, “glorifying”) refers to one of the three rites mentioned in the Śivapurāṇa 1.3.
"Śravaṇa is the first rite. The intelligent scholar must listen to the oral explanation of the preceptor and then practice the other rites.—Kīrtana and Manana(deliberation)”.
According to Śivapurāṇa 1.4, “Śravaṇa (listening) is effected when one associates with good men. Then the Kīrtana of Paśupati becomes steady.
In the end is the Manana which is the most excellent. All these take place as a result of benevolent surveillance of Lord Śiva”.
These steps are not necessary to be sequential and are considered to be different ways of bhakti.
Our Today's topic is:
श्रवण - Listen to God's lila, narrative, significance, power, source, etc. with absolute reverence with the unlimited mind. Same as Parikshit listened to Bhagwat Purana.
Words of wisdom from Sri Ramana Maharishi about Desire and Aatma :
Atman is verily what you call your Self. It is pure Consciousness / Awareness. It is the source within you. It has no other attributes.
You are identified with the body and the mind (ego) and hence you think you are limited. When you transcend this body/mind complex, you'll see you are pure awareness.
Ambitions, love, fear etc. are all extensions of desire. Desire comes from ignorance - of the fact that by nature (as your true Self) you are complete.
The incompleteness stems from identifying with the body, mind, ego and are not attributes of the Self (Atman).
