SUMMARY:Destiny: Who's in Charge? Talks by Swami Swaroopanandaji
DESCRIPTION:The issue has puzzled thinkers and laypersons alike for generations! What really is destiny? Can we change it at all? \n\n\n\nWe talk about fate\, yet we make plans and promises. We blame our circumstances when things don’t go our way\, yet we jump to claim credit even when things ‘just happen’ to be in our favour. But if what is to happen will happen regardless\, then why bother making any efforts whatsoever? What is the secret of changing or going beyond destiny without fighting it? \n\n\n\nSwamiji in his inimitable style unravels this mystery for us! All are welcome!
