Pujya Sri Swamiji's Discourse, Germany, 24 November 2001

"So many Gurus say a mantra is important. But they interpret in their own way according to their tendencies. What is required is Chitta Shuddhi (purification of the self) of its external impurities (veils). At some level we are all trying to purify ourselves by what you saw and did just now, such as Pada Puja, Karma, children education, homes etc., All kinds of services including social service is part of good Karma and following the instructions of a Sadguru is also a good karma. You might interpret my messages differently depending on the occasion. There are so many ways to reach the path of self. But the final goal and the final good comes when you have achieved Chitta Shuddhi (purity of intellect)."
