What I've talked about today is being renounced where it counts. And there is a lesson to be learned in this world, because the whole world is available to us through our senses in various ways. Our responsibility is to learn which things to leave behind and which things to pick up. Make a list. In fact, I wrote it in my book. This one I keep with me every day. Did any of you have a to-do list? Anybody keep a to-do list? Only five people. This is scary. Okay. Well, I recommend you keep a not-to-do list. Try it, because you may have been struggling with a particular habit and you thought, 'Why do I keep doing this?' It's because it's not in your not-to-do list! Make a list and just see how powerful that is. Yeah, there's a to-do list, and it keeps growing longer, right? You keep thinking, 'I gotta do this, I gotta do that,' and you still haven't finished it all. And I hate to bring up a sore subject, but when you die, it's still going to be full. And a lot of people think, 'Oh, I didn't finish. I didn't finish. I didn't finish.' Do yourself a favor and write a not-to-do list, even if you put one thing on it—that one thing that keeps bugging you, where you can't feel your own integrity because you keep doing this one thing that makes you look in the mirror and think, 'Why am I still doing something like this?' Put it on your not-to-do list. And then, add to your to-do list the most important things: First important thing is Chant Hare Krishna.Second, read Bhagavad Gita. Third is, get some service! ----------------------------------------------------------- To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
