Question:
Swamiji, in Bhakti Marga Mission, you highlight the importance of three qualities: Love, Patience and Unity. Why have you highlighted these three qualities in particular?
Sri Swami Vishwananda:
"Because these three qualities are for this time the most important. Without Love, nothing happens, you know. Without patience, you can't do anything. And you're living in a world of difference, only by uniting the difference will disappear. So, that's why I choose these three, Love, Patience and Unity. And unity also stands for the uniting. Through patience and Love one will unite with the Divine."
Question:
What is a Guru mantra? What makes it different from a normal mantra?
Sri Swami Vishwananda:
"The Guru mantra carries the full potential of the Grace of the Master inside of it. While giving it to the disciple, the Guru gives part of Himself to the disciple. Which means, wherever the Guru's level is, by chanting the Guru mantra, the disciple gets uplifted also towards it. That's what the Guru mantra is. A normal mantra doesn't carry that vibration. All mantras are good, you know, but the Guru mantra is the best."
Audience:
And what makes the Guru mantra a Guru mantra?
Sri Swami Vishwananda:
"Well, the Guru mantra is given by the Guru, that's what makes the mantra a Guru mantra. You see, the Guru mantra, like I said just now, carries all the qualities of the Master inside of it. So when one receives the gift of the Guru mantra, automatically, the Guru is responsible for the person to cross over the human mind. So that's what the Guru mantra is."
Question:
What is Mahavatar Kriya Babaji's mission on earth?
