In this short message, Swamiji asks the listeners to do all activities joyfully. When one has this attitude towards work, one will go closer to the Ultimate knowledge. The activities maybe in the domestic, professional or the social field but one must make all activities spiritual and divine.

The formula is to drop all aspirations, desires, ideals and values and focus on doing all activities joyfully, happily.

Shlokas chanted in the audio:
ज्ञानं ज्ञेयं ज्ञानगम्यं
(Bhagavad Gita 13.17)
यया संलभते रतिम्
(Srimad Bhagavatam 7.7.33)
तद्विद्धि प्रणिपातेन परिप्रश्नेन सेवया ।
उपदेक्ष्यन्ति ते ज्ञानं ज्ञानिनस्तत्त्वदर्शिनः ।।
(Bhagavad Gita 4.34)

Desires are the the blocks in the path of liberation. By desiring, the mind is constricted and the constricted mind will never deliver the peace we want. Absence of desires is liberation itself.

Slokas chanted in the track
बद्धो हि वासनाबद्धो मोक्षः स्यात् वासनाक्षयः ।
(Yoga-vasistha Ramayana 4.57.19)
ज्ञाते वस्तुन्यपि बलवती वासनाऽनादिरेषा
कर्ता भोक्ताप्यहमिति दृढा याऽस्य संसारहेतुः ।
(Vivekachudamani 267)
