Dear James,
I really want to tell you something. Vedanta works!!! I can’t hold back. I want to tell you this. It’s just total amazing! After 3 years with your teachings and my efforts to do karma yoga my addiction to smoking weed just dropped away!!! I am free of addiction some weeks now, it’s unbelievable. From one day to the next no conflict, no effort, it just went away…like magic! Ishvara fullfilled my prayers and relieved me of that addiction! Not only marijuana, many tamasic behaviors just went away. I feel so light and healthy from deep inside, like a newborn person. I still cannot believe what has happened to me. Finally my tamas is really leaving! I have become a strong, disciplined, much more happier version of myself without even recognizing it. I am really in deep love with Vedanta! It’s exactly what I always looked for. Thank you so much, Ramji! It’s really true, Ishvara helps if one wants freedom.
I never wanted to be an addicted person. I really love myself now and I understand and love my jiva. Nothing is wrong with me. And there is a deep value for doing the right thing here and now. I really hope to see you again. With deep gratitude and love.
James: You deserve it, Henry. You did the work. It is amazing that somebody that was so tamasic…I know all the Bima Baba and Ganga Mira stories, your history for some years now…can be transformed. But you have faith. You listened to the teaching and followed the suggestions. So a big pat on the back for you! Isvara can’t do Its magic if jiva doesn’t do its part. Good for you!!!
Much love,
James
