2017: Perform 91.25 HOURS of Intelligent Worship! Positive Intellectual Stimulation
Modern research proves that persons who engage in hobbies that involve the brain, like reading or puzzles, are less likely to fall into the grips of mental and physical disease. What to speak of the benefits we receive by reading Bhagavad Gita everyday?
‘If one reads Bhagavad-Gita very sincerely and with all seriousness,then by the grace of the Lord the reactions of his past misdeeds will not act upon him.’ (Lord Shiva to Parvatidevi, Gita-Mahatmya 2)
Age of Mass Distraction
But reading in this world is filled with distractions and isn’t always easy.We might read a few verses or even few pages and get distracted by the notifications on our phone or those news feeds on FB etc. This way we inevitably end up dragging and procrastinating our reading of Bhagavad Gita for hours, days and months.
Tailor Made Process
This procrastination leads to a development of distaste in our spiritual lives. Unless we consciously allocate time for reading, we may never read a chapter every day. Therefore the process has been simplified. All you need is 15 minutes a day to read the Sanskrit verses OR the English translations along with just ONE purport. You could do it in the morning, before bed or even during your commute t0 work/school. Whenever it is you choose, make sure you put it in your schedule and strictly adhere to it.
2017: Intelligent Worship
Lord Krishna Himself says in Bhagavad Gita, “I declare that he who studies this sacred conversation of ours worships Me by his intelligence.”(Bhagavad Gita 18.70)
Just by reading Bhagavad Gita for 15 minutes everyday, you will perform almost 91.25 hours of topmost worship of Lord Krishna for the entire year of 2017. Nothing in the world can stop you from achieving spiritual success if you sincerely, strictly, and seriously follow this practice. By this form of worship through intelligence, we can please Krishna. When He is pleased we, in turn, become blissful.
