Today the main word in every person's life has become - my will. From a small child to an elderly person, there is hardly anyone who is not proud of this word. In fact, this word means ego, it is mostly used in the form of pride, inferiority, superiority. As a person becomes prosperous, he considers himself independent from body, wealth, position. No limits can bind him. He considers himself superior to others and society. Nor does he consider himself a part of the fabric of nature. He considers himself complete within himself. There is no God left above.
The desire of the soul for God also gets limited. The living will itself is called 'my will'. 'My will' has only one meaning - to snatch the thread of life from the hands of God and take it into one's own hands. 'Krishna has indicated in the Gita that the living being receives the combination of intelligence stored in the previous body (Gita 6.43). When a person's virtues diminish after suffering the consequences of his deeds, he reaches the world of death. Those who take refuge in fruitful activities and desire pleasures, attain the status of traveling again and again (9.21). 'I am the enjoyer and master of all yagyas; But they do not know Me, the Supreme Lord, in essence, that is why they are reborn (9.24). Then what is the wish? mind of such a person
Despite being a devotee, he is not self-controlled. , gets distracted from Yoga in the end.
(6.37). A restless mind can be controlled with difficulty. Without this, entry into Yoga is not possible.
Not there . Can a person be born, die or fall ill of his own free will? Can a child be born as per one's free will? Who wants accidents, yet they happen, then what is the meaning of my wish? That is, whatever has to happen as per the will of nature, whatever has to happen or is to be suffered as per the destiny, it will definitely happen, it cannot be avoided. This is called divine will. My will has no place here. Because my existence in the universe is not independent. We are born carrying parts of the previous seven generations. They become a part of the fabric of future generations also. Some part of everyone's behavior remains in each other. The body is not formed as per my wish.
I have no control over my intellect and life force. The body becomes weak after two-three days of fever. All ego vanishes. There are two streams of life going on. One is of nature (God's soul) and the other is of the living soul. My will is the will of the soul. It is related to family, food, education, environment etc. The root of my will is ego, the feeling of being a doer. It is the kingdom of intelligence. There are many reasons for a living being's desires. Because the center of desire is the mind. Desire itself turns into action in life. Although knowledge is necessary for desire, yet desire is ignorant.
It also happens. There are divine and demonic desires also. Since the mind is under the influence of the three gunas (Sattva-Raja-Tama), the same desire takes three forms in action. The mind does not remain alone – life and speech remain with it. There is no consideration of others in 'my wish'. There is no vision towards the creation, there is no awareness that the person is under the control of nature. Nor does he see his own role towards his caste and religion.
Therefore, he lives and works purely animalistically – just for the sake of the body. 'My wish' I wake up at eight o'clock, take bath at ten o'clock, eat food till one o'clock, wake up again at four o'clock, drink tea, have dinner at eight o'clock, watch TV till ten o'clock. Let me see - it's my wish! When a person lives as per his own wish, he considers himself free. The result is the opposite. He binds himself so much that he remains tied for 24 hours. There are no limits to one's will, there are no limits. There is a flow which always goes downwards. Such a person does not have any resolution in his mind, his soul is not determined. They don't even think about anyone outside themselves; they are of no use to anyone even after growing up - what if they grow up, what do they become like a tree or a date palm. The devotee does not get shade but the fruits grow very far away.
