What is the difference between Motivation & Spirituality ?

At first glance, both motivation and spirituality seem to be the same, but there is a difference between these two words. Yes, both the words are similar in some senses but still, both have their own importance.

First of all, this is the motivation that comes to achieve something or to do something, where spiritual ideology talks about getting nothing but connecting with that which cannot be abandoned. We must have heard the name of yoga right? but do you know what is the meaning of yoga? The correct translation of yoga is to connect but to whom? Which cannot be abandoned. spiritual ideology believes that we are not separate from God or from ourselves, but the race to get something separates us from them, then both of them For the same reason they separated. so here the purpose of both words is different.

Motivation cannot last forever, even if you become motivated by listening or watching something, or by reading, then it cannot last long. Yes, Motivation comes quickly, having read or heard something somewhere, the mind becomes eager to show something. But in spirituality it is quite the opposite situation, here it may take a while to get knowledge or true devotion, but once the knowledge and devotion has come, it remains for life, and if you see the statement of Shrimad Bhagavad Gita, in chapters 6 and 40 to 46. Shri Krishna says in the verse that those who walk on the path of attainment of God never lose devotion or knowledge even after death.

The motivation and the happiness of that achievement can never last forever, which means even if you get something from motivation, it is not eternal. You will have your own experience that the happiness after getting something can last for a week or more but it's for a limited time, but how can one feel the grief of separation after joining the one who has and will never separated in spirituality? It is to be noted here that in our Puranas and Vedas, the soul has always been described as the form of bliss( or extreme joy). Raman Maharishi in his book Who am I? has said that whatever happiness we feel is not due to the attainment of something, but from the eradication of the yearning to achieve something, that is, the state of unrelenting is happiness. And if such a state is attained by attaining something, then the mind will make another resolution, but by the disappearance of the will, the same happiness becomes eternal. This is the reason that spiritual bliss lasts forever.

Both these ideologies have their own importance in life, but both are equally important. So that is for today.

see you next time.

Hari Om.

Yogvashishtha maharamayan

Many texts have been written in our culture, the most known are Gita, Vedas, and Upanishads, and they are important but today we will talk about a scripture about which very few people know. No one will tell you to read the entire Mahabharata, but it must have been said that read the Gita. why? Because the most important part is it, don't read the entire Mahabharata, but read Gita once. the Gita which is said in it has so much power that it can change your thoughts, your attitude, and your life. If you read the scriptures, you will see that there is a questioner who is eager to know about that subject and an answerer who knows everything about that subject, be it Gita or Upanishad, it is the same in all. If I ask you, what is the part of Ramayana in which a curious questioner asks a question and an enlightened person gives his true, on-the-point, and accurate answer, a part which is as enlightening as the Gita? That part is Yogavashisht Maharamayana. Where Shri Ram asks que...

Vineet was thirsty so he went to drink water, then Sameer tells Vivek Sameer- “ Look at that branch of this tree, it seems strong! But from inside its not." ( Vivek Sees that and agrees.) Sameer further says, "Why don't we offer Vineet to climb on this branch and he will fall from there ." (with a mischievous smile) After Sameer said this, Vivek was about to say something when he saw the stone under the branch suddenly Vineet comes. Sameer – “Look hereVineet, I brought these two mangoes from the tree and Vivek brought these two, now it is your turn, see that one delicious mango there, just take them off, then we will eat together. , Vineet says okay and clim...

What makes today's Indian Education System weak in compare to Gurukul( Ancient Education System)

There was a time when India was called the golden bird. Everyone was efficient in work as well as in intelligence, perhaps India was the only country where the efficiency of both work and intelligence was coordinated, because it is generally seen that where there is efficiency in work, there is no efficiency in intelligence. And where there is intelligence, there is no skill in action. Why was it coordinated in India? The answer is only one, the education system of that time i.e. Gurukul. Today we will discuss why the modern education system has failed to make the youth capable and also discuss how we can improve this failure by implementing many things of our Gurukul. Today India has many problems, poverty, unemployment, many efforts have been made and are being made to remove them, but have we been successful? In India, 65 out of every 100 people are young, they have the potential to take the country forward, but even today India has not been able to make good use of it, becaus...
