The question is- We say that the divine works through an individual and we also say that doing one’s karma is one’s own responsibility, then where does the divine will and our doer ship start and end.

Om Swami says that when one person comes into another person’s life which results in them not liking the things starting to happen in their life, as they have no control over it, then it is their prarabdh karma. Whenever we step into someone’s life, it is that person’s prarabdh and new karma is born. Whenever one does something as they want to do it, then they are creating new karma. Om Swami says that results of prarabdh karma need not always be from previous lifetimes. Sometimes one can get the result in the same lifetime and it all depends on what kind of actions they did. He says, whatever is in our hands, the responsibility for that too remains only with us and we cannot say that it is divine will. If a person has done an action then that action has been done by that person alone. The blame cannot be shifted to someone else saying that they had influenced them. For one’s thought is their own and only they themselves own it. The more one’s thinking progresses the better will their actions be. For its one’s thought which influences all actions ultimately.

Two questions have been answered by Om Swami in this discourse. The first question asked was- In human life we fall down many times, get bruised, get up and walk again to fall down again. Is this normal and the usual pattern of human life?

Om Swami says that this is the usual pattern but if one is walking a straight path then the chances of falling down are lesser. Walking without running, keeping one’s eyes open and on the road will avoid accidents. The same applies to life he says. If one is living a straight forward life the chances of slipping and falling and getting hurt will be few. To rise above our conditioned mind one has to rise above the usual mind set and think in a new way he says.

How To Create Patterns In Life  - Om Swami [English]

The question is, " How can one hope to meditate and find God if one is a householder?"

  You don't have to meditate for hours and hours. If you can do quality meditation for ten minutes, you will find God. If you can hold on to a thought for seven minutes, you will experience Samadhi. The question is not to meditate and sit down and become lifeless. The question is to immerse yourself in that devotional sentiment.  

For a householder, you should turn everything into sadhana, everything into meditation. If you are bathing in the morning, you say I am giving an abhishekam to my deity. Your deity lives in your heart. That's what Nyasa means. Before every puja we do Nyasa which means that my body is a temple and I am installing you in this temple now so that you and I are one. When you are eating you think I am offering ahutis to my god. Krishna says to Arjuna that I am the fire in everybody's stomach that digests food of four types, so this is a yagya. Turn eating your food into sadhana. If you are sleeping think of it as a Samadhi, if you are copulating, think of this as a union with Shiva and Shakti. If you are earning think of this as Ma Lakshmi. Turning everything into sadhana. This is the easiest route. The path of renouncing is not designed for a householder. A householder is not supposed to set aside two to three hours everyday and meditate at the cost of his responsibilities, at the cost of his health and at the cost of quality time with his family.

Yanagu Aane Ranga

Om Swami is a Himalayan monk, adept in meditation. At the peak of his meditative practice, he was meditating for 22 hours a day. He has spent 15,000+ hours meditating & has experienced our sublime consciousness in ways that defy any scientific understanding.

Researchers from IIT in India have studied the remarkable effects of his intense practice and published the results in a 2019 research paper https://bit.ly/3axrzdv 

After coming back from Himalayas, Swami wanted to help sincere seekers in search of enlightenment. Gradually he realized that people wanted his help for various ‘how to’ in life (joy, relationship, anger, work, self-discipline, stress, etc). Through his talks, seminars, books, and videos – his purpose remains the same – to help people. 

Whether you are practicing meditation, mindfulness, or simply looking for help with self-discipline – this channel can help. Think of it as a series of self-help videos and don’t forget to
