There are times in life when individuals may feel completely lost. While we may know an understanding of what is correct, we still don't feel like doing it. We also know what's wrong, but somehow we keep going in that direction. In these moments of inner conflict, where the mind is confused and the heart is heavy, it helps to connect with something deeper. Spiritual figure Parveen Sharma provides a significant mantra to recite in such challenging times. This mantra brings tranquility, encourages surrender, and imparts a feeling of divine guidance.

Chant This Powerful Mantra

The mantra is taken from the ancient scriptures and holds deep meaning:

• "जानामि धर्मं न च मे प्रवृत्तिर् जानाम्य् अधर्मं न च मे निवृत्तिः ।
• त्वया हृषीकेश हृदि स्थितेन यथा नियुक्तो ऽस्मि तथा करोमि ॥ ९४ ॥"

Translation: “I know what dharma is, but I don't feel inclined to follow it. I know what adharma is, but I cannot stop myself. O Hrishikesha (Krishna), You are seated in my heart, and I act as You have appointed me.”

A Prayer of Helplessness and Devotion

This is not a chant; it's a prayer of the soul. It's a place of helplessness where the ego surrenders and the heart turns towards the Divine. When you chant it daily, it constantly reminds you that you are not the doer – you are just an instrument. Gradually, this leads to a change from resistance to surrender.

Experience the Power of Surrender

Chant this mantra daily with honesty and openness. Over time, the word "surrender," which we speak casually, becomes a real experience. You begin to feel directed, supported, and less burdened by choices. The confusion of right and wrong is reduced, and a quiet inner clarity begins to emerge.
