A certain degree of contentment is needed. You can only get this by seeing life from a broader perspective. If you pay a little attention to the magnitude of the universe and all that is happening here, you don’t just think about failures and successes. You see your life in context to the whole existence. Then you can enjoy life in its totality, and this is what ultimate success looks like!

Q: Gurudev, when time is good, everyone is good to you. So are people actually good or is the goodness of time that makes people good around you? I am confused.

@Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar ji - I think you already know the answer.

There are people you have helped day and night and yet they have become your enemies. Haven’t they? How many of you have had this experience? You have not done anything wrong to somebody and yet they have become your enemy. Similarly, you have not done any favor to somebody, yet they have helped you a lot and become best friends with you. Hasn’t this happened?

Getting a friend or enemy happens through some karma. So if your time is good, even an enemy acts like a friend, and if your time is not good, even a friend acts like an enemy.

Question - Gurudev, How to get rid of negative karma? How does it come into existence?

@Gurudev Sri Sri - I want to ask you a question. When the lights were not on in this room, there was darkness here, right? When the lights came on, where did the darkness go? Did it go to that room? Did the darkness escape through the window? Got it? In the same way, if negative karma is there, there is little darkness, there is no light there. Put the light on, it vanishes. How to get rid of negative karma? By meditation, service and knowledge. Serve the needy. Know that it (the negative karma) does not touch you; a shadow does not touch me.

Question - Gurudev, can fate be changed, if so, how? I want to wash off my bad karma.

@Gurudev Sri Sri - You are in the right place, doing the right thing. Meditate, chant, take part in lot of service activities and the past karma will get washed away.

Question - Gurudev, are bodily diseases or disorders linked to our karmas?

@Gurudev Sri Sri - Yes, some of them are linked, but not all. Some are linked to your actions of the past, and some are a result of your own wrong deeds that you have done now. That is why it is called Prajnapradha (a wrong deed committed despite having the knowledge or discretion of right and wrong). So when you are not fully attentive or in awareness, and commit some wrong deed, then your health also suffers due to that.
