What is the root cause of Worries?
ego has been allowed to increase more and more. The world is capable of functioning with a natural, normal ego. But the inflated ego of the old man says,' I am worried a lot.' What are the consequences of these worries? Animal life form is in store for you in your next life. So beware. While you are in this human life form you must be cautious, otherwise you will receive the fruit of animal life if you carry on worrying.
A true devotee will even scold God
Worries that eat away at you inside are meaningless. They harm your health and also obstruct whatever is due to you. It is precisely because of worries that such situations arise. One has to think about the good and the bad aspects of any situation, but there is no reason to worry. This worrying is egoism. There should not be any egoism.

Therefore the part with egoism has to be separated, after that, it is okay to go on thinking about the essential and non-essential things. This way, it will not eat away at you.

The world will say such things regardless of whether you have done so or not.

If you encounter anxiety, you should scold and give your piece of mind to the God present within you. This is true love for God. These days it is difficult to find a true devotee. They all move around with their own selfish motives.

Those goods cannot even be sold. How can they be sold? Wherever they go to sell these goods, they come across other factories. Find me one person in this world who does not worry.
Some devotees say, 'I am at the feet of Lord Krishna'so why worry if you have taken refuge at the feet of Lord Krishna? Even Lord Mahavir has said not to worry. He has
In this worldly interaction, ego is always there as a by-product. This type of ego is natural. This much ego is enough to run your life normally. But whole new factories of ego have been started, and this extra ego has expanded to such an extent that there is no end to the worries. The
