Скачать или смотреть The Importance of Śravaṇam (Attentive Hearing) in Our Life | HG Sumitra Gopal Das

Hare Krishna 🙏
All glories to Śrī Guru and Gaurāṅga.

In our busy lives filled with distractions, we often hear many things but rarely listen attentively. In this humble offering, we reflect on the importance of Śravaṇam (attentive hearing)—the very first and most essential limb of Bhakti Yoga.

Śravaṇam means hearing transcendental knowledge about Lord Krishna from authentic sources with sincerity, humility, and attention. Scriptures explain that by simply hearing with faith, the heart gradually becomes purified, and our dormant devotion begins to awaken.

Through this session, we attempt to understand:

Why attentive hearing is the foundation of spiritual life

How Śravaṇam transforms consciousness and daily behavior

The role of humility, patience, and focus while hearing

How hearing leads to remembrance, service, and surrender

This is not a presentation of scholarship, but a simple reminder for ourselves to cultivate attentive hearing in our spiritual journey. Any mistakes are our own, and whatever is beneficial is by the mercy of devotees and the Lord.

We humbly request everyone to please listen with an open heart and pray for the ability to hear attentively, as hearing properly is the doorway to genuine realization.

Your servant,
🙏 Hare Krishna
