Relevance of aagraha (persuasion), nigraha (restraint) and anugraha
(blessing) in our life.
Sri Sri: Each has its own position and significance.
.
Life runs on anugraha, blessings.

Nigraha, which means restraint gives you joy and happiness in life. We also
need aagraha or insistence sometimes.

If a mother does not insist, then children do not walk on the right path.
If a father does not insist or persuade his children, then they do not get
any direction in life. In this way aagraha is also important.

Similarly, if knowledgeable people do not insist on standing up against
injustice, then injustice continues to spread in the society. If we do not
insist on opposing ignorance, then ignorance will grow. So, it is important
to insist on removing injustice and ignorance from the society.
One needs to exercise nigraha, restraint over the mind. Thousands of
thoughts come to the mind. Sometimes people are troubled with the thoughts
that come to their own mind. If you do not exercise restraint on the
thoughts that come to the mind, then you will go insane and get admitted to
a mental hospital. So restraint is very necessary. (If you start acting on
every thought that comes to your mind, then you will surely get admitted in
a mental hospital)
We also need to exercise restraint upon our senses.
For example, our mind urges us to eat more, although our stomach says that
it is full. This happens many times.

When a person does not exercise restraint over his senses, he lands up in a
hospital with illness, or in jail. Exercising restraint can save oneself
from both these situations.
Anugraha (blessing) brings contentment in life. If you have experienced
some joy or comfort in life, it has come only through blessings. When
knowledge dawns in us, we are able to recognize and become aware of the
blessings in our life.
Whatever we have received, wherever we are in life today, all this has come
only from blessings. This feeling provides a sense of completeness to life.


Jai Gurudev
