Where can one’s heart find tranquillity?


Swamishri: Gujar Tulsidas has said: ‘Surpur Narpur Nagpur, ye tin me sukh nahi, ya sukh Hari ke charan me, ya santna ke mahi’ (You may look in paradise, on earth or in hell, nowhere will you find happiness. For happiness can only be found at God’s feet or with His holy Sadhu). Only God and His holy Sadhu can give us peace. If you keep God in your heart, tranquillity will pervade. By realizing God to be the all–doer one experiences tranquillity. A true devotee regards every action of God to be perfect. Every man experiences difficulties in life; one who has not sought refuge in God, may turn to suicide (in order to escape misery). Whereas, one who has such shelter, he looks to the Satpurush, who in turn gives him the strength and inspiration to keep on going.
