In this chapter 3 major points were told by Swamivaaru which are very useful for the present society and everyone of us have to follow for a better and happy world.
. Sripada Swami's protection for birds
. Hita bodha for man kind
. Save tree for our healthy life
In this chapter Swami explains that we humans think what ever the nature is giving, is only for us.But, God has created this nature equally for all the living creatures on this Earth.In this chapter at that period of time Swami decides to protect birds and gives us some good message..in order to know His message for man kind one has to read chapter 21 for sure. Swami also says God resides in Marri, Raavi, Medi, Vepa, Jammi, Maamidi, Neredu trees so, if in need of wood not to cut off these trees rather use the wood from Tummi chettu.
One more important point Swami covers in this Chapter and which now a days all of us want desperately is how to control manasu(mind). We should not be in control of our mind in stead we should try to keep it busy by assigning it some or the other thought.Here thought means Satsang, reading or listening to saints and devotees stories,meditation, positive thinking.Slowly mind will get used to this and it will stop making unnecessary thoughts and it will be freed from impurities.
Here Vittal Babaji gives use a beautiful tip on how to keep our mind busy in spite of our busy schedule.He illustrates an example that if we misplace a gold ornament, outwardly we may be occupied with our busy schedule but, inwardly we keep thinking, "Where could it be? Where could it be?" This is how we should keep our mind busy with continuous namasmarana by following our daily activities without any break.
If we find the ornament we are very happy and if we do not find it, we are sad.This is not the case with namasmarana continuously taking God's name will yield to positive results only and we get closer and closer to God/Guru. Sripada Swami explains the importance and blessings we get out of namasamrana in this chapter.
