Description

Acharya Prashant explains that the Guru's advice, 'Govind Milan ki eh teri vari aa,' signifies that this life is a unique opportunity to meet the Lord of the Universe. He emphasizes the middle line of the quoted verse, which states that all other efforts are of no use. He argues that most of our everyday actions are a 'trifling tremendous waste' and that we must rigorously scrutinize every motivation and action. He challenges the listener to quantify their devotion by calculating the percentage of time actually devoted to the truth, suggesting that even a 'pass percentage' of forty percent is a significant and difficult goal to achieve.
