Radhanath Swami’s Secret Strategy

Radhanath Swami’s Secret Strategy

Radhanath Swami’s Secret Strategy

This happened in Mayapur, a village close to Kolkata. I was with Radhanath Swami as he conversed with one of his students. I followed the pleasant exchanges closely, attempting to zero-in on Radhanath Swami’s secret strategy: how does he keep his students happy and inspired in spirituality? I already knew him as an expert manager, managing many big projects all over the world.

When the conversation ended and the student strutted away, all smiles, I turned to Radhanath Swami.  “What’s your strategy for him?”

His reply left me speechless. “Strategies are for projects. But for people, it’s directly from the heart.”

–Navina Nirada.

    This is a great secret strategy…..something that only holy people can do….I guess general masses will not have the ability to speak to others from their heart…coz of their selfish tendencies. Nice inspiration from Radhanath Swami

    That secret is love which is the sum and substance of our phillosophy
    Jivadoya : means Expressing your love for all living entities by connecting them to krishna
    Namm ruchi : eXpressing your love for krishna by chanting his names
    Vaishnava seva : expressing your love for the devotees of the lord by engaging in their serving

    and maharaj is a treasure house of love. That is his secret.

    Whatever Radhanath swami says is directly from the heart and nothing is superficial. This is really inspiring for all of us to follow in all our dealings too.

    Maharaj makes it so clear : You can’t treat other people, all the more devotees, like you treat machines. Exploiting even dead matter which also has its source in Krsna is condemnable and against laws of nature then what to speak of jivas (even animals) who are directly part and parcel of Lord. One who has love for God only he can truly appreciate the position of other jivatma and deal accordingly. Thank you pr for so humbly sharing this most wonderful pastime.
