Everything is changing constantly. But the real beauty of life is, throughout these changes, the underlying current of truth never changes. And if we can connect ourselves to the beauty of this truth, we can be stable through all the unpredictable uncertainties of life.

It is important to understand that its been a trend to generalize many facts of life under the name of rationalism, open mindedness or globalization but there are certain truths of life which do not change and remain eternal truths. Swamiji wonderfully explains that if we are in accordance with these truths of life we will be at peace inspite of the constant changes around us.
Yes Kalpesh, its very true- a superficial reading of the above quote seems to lack any practical application – but I was amazed when i pondered on it…that it really matters.
Like for when i was studying in college so many things like assignments and exams matters- but now when I am out of it these things hardly matter- but I as the observer of these situations- will remain eternal. Only the circumstances change!!
Very apt example Kiran. Makes a lot of sense.
Very well said Kalpesh Ji.
A very vital instruction from HH Radhanath Swami. If one is nicely settled inside there is nothing external that can cause any disturbance to such a person. If one is connected to God inside, no matter what happens that person remains calm and determined to continue on the divine mission. Srila Prabhupada is a perfect example for this quote. Do you agree?
Wonderful. Thanks for sharing it!
Wonderful message from HH Radhanath Swami Maharaj!
So true. IN this constantly changing world only if we fix ourselves to the eternal truth i.e. constant there will be so much stability if not around us atleast within us.
I had heard a story in which a man was getting washed away in flood water n suddenly he gets hold of a rod, he grabs it n is saved. In our lives we r also in flood of problems n anxieties n the truth which Swamiji says can help us, save us.
what an inspiring quote
very inspiring quote. Thank you HH Radhanath swami Maharaj
beauty within really counts
True! if we can connect to our inner self, then we can remain calm even in the face of external dangers and miseries.
