Reminding us again and again...

Verses 1.13.36-37 (Yugal Kishore Prji):

* Sanjaya is the secretary of Dhrtharashtra and also the disciple of Vedavyas.
* We know the setting of BG too, where Sanjaya used to see through his divine vision and narrating it to Dhrtarashtra.
* So when he left, Sanjaya felt cheated. But that is true with almost everyone, near and dear one's leave at any moment.
* Here, Dhrtharashtra left without telling anyone cause he did not want any kind of attachment and went to the forest for a higher cause of attaining the supreme.
* For us also, we have been cultivated under the guidance of parampara, so we are reaping the benefits now. So we have to cultivate others.
* Other examples: Krishna ordered MY to speak a lie, is that cheating. No, it is the highest truth, cause it is for the Supreme Lord.
* Point: We lament when there is a disconnection with near and dear, but we forget. Like Dhrtharashta, we also need some one to remind us again and again. Maya is so powerful that we will forget slowly. So like Dhrtharashtra, as SM is speaking now, we have to slowly rise and move away from the illusion of material existence.
* So when chanting, we should disconnect with the whole world and be in close touch with the holy name. We should not neglect. Genuinely try.
