On Sri Rama having crossed over to the other side of the sea, Ravana commands his ministers, Shuka and Shaarana, to enter the enemy's ranks and tell him everything about them. Detected while doing the work of a spy, they are captured by Vibhishana, but let go by Sri Rama. Going back to Ravana, they exhort the latter to hand over Sita to Sri Rama.Recitation: 00:00 - 05:45Translation: 05:48 - 13:36

In order for us to be able to care for others, we must first care for ourselves by letting go of practices such as self-criticism and doubt. Ahimsa (non-harming) is not only about refraining from causing harm to others - it also applies to ourselves.

Focusing on convenience over comfort fosters the idea of aparigraha (non-possessing) and helps us prioritize peace over attachment. In this season of Live Vedanta, we are sharing insights on Courageous Caregiving through Vibhishana Gita.

We're eternal servants of Kṛṣṇa , and when we're able to find that seed which is given to us by association of pure devotees, that the only thing that is important to me ultimately is the sincere desire to serve Kṛṣṇa with no motivation, even if we're not able to act in that position yet, when we know and recognize that I have that desire seed within my heart, it will grow, and Kṛṣṇa will reward that. If He rewarded Pūtanā, if He rewarded Pauṇḍraka, and who can even find the desire seed within their hearts to serve Kṛṣṇa, how much more will He reciprocate with somebody who's sincerely trying, even if unable to do it? Kṛṣṇa gives such encouraging words in Bhāgavatam, like 'jāta-śraddho mat-kathāsu nirviṇṇaḥ sarva-karmasu veda duḥkhātmakān kāmān parityāge 'py anīśvaraḥ (SB 11.20.27-28)' He said, "You may know you don't want any part of the material world, but you're not able to detach from it because of so many present habits you've developed from past association." He said, "But don't worry, keep up. Just go on with the process, because that seed of pure devotional service that you have in your heart will fully manifest by My grace." There's a very encouraging purport in the light of the Bhagavata in which Prabhupāda says that once you've recognized that desire in your heart and expressed it even one time - 'sakṛd eva prapanno yas,' that's from the Rāmāyaṇa—that Vibhishana said, you know, "I'm your servitor." And Rāmachandra said, "Anyone who says that, from that day forward, I'm their protector. I'm always there for them. I'll never forget that they said that." If we are able to come forward in devotional service to serve the Lord in that way, then Prabhupāda writes that even if you change your mind, the devotional service by its own force will drag you to perfection. So better to inform ourselves of the perfection that we already have as living entities, as servants of the Lord, and water that seed as much as possible in all circumstances by being very submissive to the process of devotional service. Don't take anything personally in this world; it's all for our purification. Just depend on the mercy of Kṛṣṇa. And Prabhupāda alludes to that in the purport. He said, "The perfectional mentality of 'sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaḿ śaraṇaḿ vraja,'—just take shelter of Kṛṣṇa." You may be confused; you may not know exactly how everything works together, whatever it is, as Prabhupāda indicates in this purport, it's from Kṛṣṇa's words, 'mā śucaḥ.' He said, Prabhupāda writes, "But such worry is useless. Just surrender to Kṛṣṇa, and He'll take care of everything." That's real perfection in life, even if we're imperfect. If we have that conviction that if I surrender to Kṛṣṇa, there is a God, and I'm not Him, and if I surrender to Him, He's perfect, and He'll make everything else perfect—that's all you need. If you start there, and you give your heart and soul to watering that seed, then everything will manifest in due course of time.
