Guest guest Posted May 23, 2005 Report Posted May 23, 2005 Swamiji's response: Yes, that is the function of Sankalpa, a spiritual vow or promise. It says that no matter what the mind may say, no matter what the body may feel, I am going to recite this puja or text of worship. When we complete our vows we understand that the pain was just another thought - not enough to deflect us from the completion of our goals. ----------------------- Namascar Dearest Swamiji. I bow humbly before your wisdom. I have benefited much from your Q&A with Steve Conner and would ask a follow up question. What technique would be most efficient for cultivating the will to support the Sankalpa? I am thinking devotion to the Guru, but perhaps also something else to quicken the energy? Thank you. Jai Maa!
