Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda. The lecture begins by reminding us of the importance of the doctrine of reincarnation. The four external relations of Maitri, Karuna, Mudhita, Upeksha are once again recommended to counter the psychological obstacles of spiritual life. Citta Prasada, inner contentment, is the goal. It is to be obtained through Pratyak Cetana, awakening to our transcendental nature. The method is Japa, repetition of a holy name, with concentration on the meaning. Four levels of mantra repetition are discussed. According to Bhagavata Purana, the highest devotee of God is one who feels the presence of God in all beings and feels the presence of the whole of creation in God. Verses: I.33, I.30, I.31, I.32, I.29, I.23, I.28.
