Leadership and Character - 0 views

  •  
    "In today's age, where can we find proficient spiritual coaches who can save the character-game for us?" The answer is simple: Seek and you shall find. One who is sincere, the Bhagavad Gita explains, is helped by the Supreme Lord. Radhanath Swami's memoir, The Journey Home, is a brilliant read that boosts our faith in God's help. In it Radhanath Swami shares with us his teenage quest for a guru: how he persevered with patience, and how he was lead to the guru he sought, by a power beyond his own. The adventures that accompany this quest make the book spine-chilling.

Radhanath Swami | Relief from material attachments - 0 views

  •  
    "The nature of the mind is to interpret nonessentials essential. The mind creates artificial needs, believing it cannot live without them. In this way we carry a great burden of attachments throughout our life. Attachment is itself a great burden on our minds. We may never understand the extent of the burden till, like my books or the earwax, we're free of it. But if we find joy within, we can live a simple life, free of endless complications."

Radhanath Swami on Pridelessness of Vasudeva the leper | Radhanath Swami Yatras - 0 views

  •  
    "If you have a boil on your body and if somebody squeezes it, it really hurts. If you don't have a boil on your body you can squeeze that same part and it doesn't hurt. But if you do have one if somebody even looks on it, it hurts. So where there is pride, it is like that boil filled with that puss."

Overcoming Distractions - 0 views

  •  
    Radhanath Swami reveals that spiritual life can present temptations that distract us from our goal. One should not practice spiritual practices for either monetary gain or for worldly popularity. The real bliss of spiritual life will be missing from our lives if we succumb to pursuing ephemeral goals of wanting prestige and power in this material world.

Spiritual Life Transforms the Heart - 0 views

  •  
    Radhanath Swami implores that let us not make this mistake of denying the reality that we have negativities in our heart and we need to change. Rather let us happily accept the changes we have to make. They are for our good. These transformations bring us closer to God and give us real and lasting happiness.

What is 'spiritual' about Leadership? - 1 views

  •  
    A considerate leader then becomes popular with his team members; for everyone in this world seeks to be understood and loved. Thus a leader grounded on 'internal' spiritual principles also achieves the external success and popularity. But the critical difference now is by focussing on the inner journey, one achieves worldly fame as an insignificant by-product. The real success is in being a leader of substance; as the shadow of worldly recognition shines and fades, it doesn't really matter.
