Background of this interview: If the circumstances cannot be changed, change your attitude. This is one of the lessons in Preksha Meditation, to act, and to stop reacting. In the video some ambient noises from the street (cars, taxis) or other visitors are audible, giving the right audio impression of the location. Munishree unfailingly stayed concentrated on what he had chosen to be, the present moment. No sign of reaction to the circumstances, no wandering of the eyes or from the subject...
When we entered the room, Muni shree was busy with writing. When he saw us he laid down his pen. It was obvious that he was following a straight schedule, where each and every minute was buzzing with activity as a reverence to life. We greeted Muni shree respectfully and expressed our gratitude that he was giving his precious time for providing answers to our questions. He gave his permission to video record our talk, and editor Aparigraha installed the technical equipment.
When the first question was put, muni shree looked at me. It was a look from soul to soul. In his glance were understanding, tolerance, and respect. I immediately relaxed, all my tensions dispersed. Only very few people nowadays have an eye for their vis-à-vis. Muni shree not only has an eye for the people he is talking to, he treats them equally to himself. And to be treated by a Jain Muni equally to himself is really a very special experience of softness, tenderness, and universal love. After these 24 minutes in the presence of Muni Mahendra Kumar I felt different, more relaxed, more aware, more confident. It was like having breathed plenty of fresh air during a walk in a park, not physically, mentally. The encounter with a wise person made all the difference. A person with not only highly developed intellectual capacity, but also highly developed spiritual capacity. According to Muni Mahendra Kumar wisdom is knowledge in action. This had been demonstrated in the way he responded to our queries.
An encounter that had uplifted us and hopefully you too. S ource: www.herenow4u.net/index.php?id=71731"We are very fortunate to have Guru such as the Acharya Shri Mahapragya and Acharya Shri Mahashraman, and Mahedra Muni like 'Diamonds' in the 'Zaveri' family (Pun intended)"
