whatever we dislike.
This loka says that for those who are suffering from
afflictions in life arising from anxiety and fear, the only sure
way to attain fearlessness lies in worshipping always the
holy lotus feet of Achyuta (meaning permanent, another
name of Sri Hari).
This loka says that fear is from all that is changeful, unreal
and perishable. To have fearlessness, we must hold on to
Achyuta, the imperishable, the changeless, and not to the
perishables. We must whole-heartedly worship His holy
lotus feet, the abode of fearlessness.

This is like getting rid of the ingested poison from the body.
Matters reach the court only when there is opposition and
stubbornness from certain quarters within us. When we are
capable of resolving our own problems why should we
approach the courts of law?

One may ask: How did these things survive all along till
now? Simply because a mistake survived for many years
does not mean it should be allowed to continue. The fault
is ours that we did not think about it. Why not do
something at least now? Sometimes, even some important
aspects do not surface in our mind; let us agree that this is
human insufficiency.

These two laws are meant for taking action against people
who indulge in unlawful intolerance, or incite public
through speech on these lines. Wherever improper
intolerance is exhibited, authorities should rush in, and
initiate criminal prosecution against the defaulters. Any
intolerance can be contained in this way. Intolerance of any
kind is not permissible; not only in Politics, but also in all
areas of life. We have freedom of expression, but that cannot
be at the expense of others freedom.

The final day of the retreat on July 26th felt like a festival
celebration as Swamiji along with M and Nutan Swamiji,
alongside retreat participants and volunteers, spearheaded
the drive for the Anna Vastra Dna Satram distributing
clothes, a bag of rice and special pyasam to over 7000
people. It was an enormous inspiration to watch Swamiji
lead the packing and distribution efforts with indefatigable
energy putting those of us who are half his age to shame.
Such is the boundless energy of evolved souls who are
beyond body identification! I was amazed to see village
people of all faiths, including Burkha-clad Muslims and
cross-pendant-wearing Christians, come through the lines,
joyously receive the prasda and exit with a smile. The
distribution proceeded with the tune of bhajans. There is
no division in humanity, love and charity.

Dear and blessed A,
Hari Om Tat Sat. Jai Guru. Three days back I received your
loving email; yes, your first email to me. I was very excited
and was impatient to open it. I knew for sure that it was
the description about your trip to Nairobi.
You must have felt great watching the animals close to you
in their most natural surroundings! How beautiful they must
have looked in the midst of Nature! Whenever we look at
the beauty of creation animals, plants, rivers, oceans,
mountains and sky the mind goes back to their source
the Creator, the supreme Lord. He is the One in everything,
permeated everywhere. He creates so many varieties in this
world, brings in so many colours and designs. The mind
just gets overwhelmed thinking about Him, His greatness.
Spontaneously, the mind gets filled with a humility and
blessedness to be belonging to this supreme Creator.
