About this Blog

This Blog is a collection of excerpts from talks given by Sri Swami Vishwananda. Please note that this Blog does not focus on dates, background and the exact original way of how Swamiji delivered the speech. We edit the talks slightly, presenting them in a kind of “poetic” format. This means we choose certain paragraphs from a talk which reflect a particular theme.
Read them as pieces of Divine Wisdom, meditate upon the words and just feel how Swamiji is addressing you with His words.

In the relationship to God, you forget yourself completely

Kabir (Poet and Saint) & Krishnaji
Sri Swami Vishwananda: So you see, in the relationship to the Divine you forget about yourself completely.
You forget about your own Realisation, you forget about what will make you happy. Like it is said in the Bible: The greatest happiness is when you can give your life for your friend, isn’t it?
True relationship is when one can give oneself completely and when you are in Love you always forget about yourself.
Look, everybody has been in Love.
Do you think of yourself, when you are in love or do you think of the other person? So, the soul can always be in Love with the Divine, no?

This is an excerpt of Sri Swami Vishwananda's book Just Love
