Love that is not destroyed having the cause of destruction is pure love. The lover doesn't expect anything in return from the beloved. Gopi prem is the glaring example of pure love. It's not possible in the material world.
Happy birthday Swami ji. May I only love u not just like u, I loved Chaitanya mahaprabhu and Govind story ❤.
Radhe Radhe
I always wait for Swami Ji’s videos❤
There is a difference between true love lust and love .like in business we give and take, In true love we just give and never even think about taking anything. Our Love towards God should be real love .
Happy Birthday, Swamiji! May your wisdom continue to enlighten us for years to come! Jai Shri Krishna 🙏
Radhey Radhey 🙏 🙏
Love means only giving and living for others. Living for happiness of god and guru.
Thank you so much!! What is special about Swami Mukundananda ji's lectures is that he explains things one by one so smoothly and with the use of stories that it naturally sets in the mind and intellect. His way of explaining with so much love and compassion gleaming from his personality makes the practical application of of this wisdom so Swift in daily life, grateful that I have association of such a living Bhakti Legend ❤❤
Indeed we have to always remember we do actions for the sake of god not for our own sake it’s so true!❤
Jai Sri Krishna Jai Guru Dev Thanks Happy in My Soul
Happy birthday swami ji ❤🎉🎂🙏
True love is pure and divine like God. True love always sacrifices and strives for the benefit of beloved. Story of a newly wed couple is heart touching.
The story of bhishma ji was very inspiring in this path of devotion 🙏🙏
Amazing explanation the difference between like and love. Love is unconditional, sacrifice and selfless, seeking happinesses for our beloved. Thank you Swamiji.
True love never fades with situations; as our beloved behaves inappropriately, our love for them should increase. Our devotion and love for Sri Krishna should be the same way. Worldly love follows a 'take and take' policy, whereas in devotion, only love for God unites us with Him.
Radhey Radhey Swamiji 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
The story of Bhisma Maharaja is heart touching. Thank you Swamiji 🙏🙏🙏 for explaining such an important topic called "True love ".
I found the husband pretending blind story & shree krishna story very well explained. Thank you so much Swamiji for helping youth like me to learn scriptures in the easy understanding form through your videos.
Fantastic story of mahabharat
Real love never diminishes, it keeps increasing even if the behaviour of our beloved god & guru is unfavorable ❤
True love requires sacrifice for the happiness of our beloved. Worldly love is not at all love but it involves in taking and taking
Radhey Radhey🙏🙏🙏
True love is all about giving, giving..
Happy Birthday, Swamiji. Radhey Rani will always be blessing you. And thank you for everything you added precious thought and divine knowledge to me from the start. Radhey Radhey!
Grandsire Bheeshm is my all-time favorite. He presents the best example of single-minded devotion. . पवि पाहन दामिनी गरज झरि झकोर खरि खीझि। रोष न प्रीतम दोष लखि तुलसी रागहि रीझि।| The cloud shows its anger and annoyance to the loving overtures of the Chatak bird by striking with lightening, hitting with hailstones, stunning and stupefying with the dazzling stab of lightening, rumbling and thundering in anger, pouring rain in a torrent and virtually slapping and lashing out making the poor Chatak by hitting it with gusts of strong and gale-force winds in the form of severe storm. The Chatak never minds and never feel disheartened, for its love selfless and single-minded. This is true divine love. No matter what the behavior of the beloved, we will always remain exclusively devoted to him. In other words, unlike material relationships, we will not turn away from him if his behavior does not meet our expectations..
True love is all about giving and urge for nothing in return. The most beautiful message, Thanks a million times swamiji for reminding us this.😊
Husband pretending blind was the most compelling story for me. It really qualifies for real and unconditional love.
True love means to keep loving the Beloved without selfishness..even when they behave adversely .. thank you for the message Swamiji 🙏
All the stories from Mahabharat are very inspiring. All the content has helped me immensely in my spiritual journey. Thank you Swamiji, power to you!!
Bhisma's devotion to Lord Krishna was my favourite story
Have a 'giving', selfless, and pure mentality and the love will increase and lust etc. will diminish. Thank you Swami ji 🙏🕉
Love is all about selflessly giving to some one with out expecting anything in return. The story of Bhisma pitamaha in Mahabharata is very inspiring.
The story of the husband pretending to be blind ! Happy birthday to Swamiji, true dispeller of darkness in our lives, thanks for your dedication to our elevation, Radhey Radhey

C: the Bhisma story touch my heart thank you Swamiji
How sweet the message is. Listening to the devotees love for their God and Guru I feel I am so selfish. I will also strive for true love in my devotion!
Off course, the story of Shri Bhishm Pitamah! 🌺🙏❤️ We revere our Madhurapati and his ardent devotees.🙏 These stories are to illuminate Glories of our Beloved. MahaBharat was to teach the right and wrong, Satya/asatya, the horrors of all bad actions, as lessons for people of Kaliyug. Most of all the Prabhu Leelas are for devotees to cherish and worship, at the same time getting nonbelievers to find refuge at the Lotus Feet of Shrikrishna Bhagwan and be HIS devotee to find that LOVE that we all have been seeking, (and didn't even know), throughout the endless lifetimes.

Great wisdom Swamiji 🙏 by narrating with examples on what true,selfless,and unconditional love is without any expectations in return. The true love examples of husband pretending to be blind to his wife and Chaitanya Mahaprabhus’s disciple’s devotion,service, and unconditional love towards him is touching.
Radhe radhe, Swamiji ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No words to express.From begining to end of the video each word costs countless.lastly I can say except Pranam what I can do about the ocean of knowledge.Nobody can give valuble examples like Swsmiji.

Great to know that the message touched you deeply! We are certainly indebted to Swamiji for blessing us with precious gems of wisdom!
Radhey Radhey swamiji, Thank you for making us understand what is true love and how it is different from material love which mostly falls into category of bussiness or lust. I'm deeply moved with all 3 stories discussed. My takeaway is no matter how God treats us be it affection, neutral or adverse but we should always love him selflessly. ❤❤

👌If we can hold on to our love for God irrespective of life situations - that would be the sign of spiritual progress.
Swami ji's teachings are always profound. I appreciate the practical approach in this video to help us strengthen our belief systems. It's a true roadmap for success.

Happy to know that this knowledge is helping you upgrade the belief system. Swamiji inspires us to change 1% at a time.
Thank you Swamiji for defining what True Love is.... Radhe Radhe Swamiji 🙏💐❤
Amazing and most important point from the aspect of devotee. We think we are loving others for others sake, but it’s not and it’s for our own sake. The stories explained by swamiji the man at the restaurant reveals this point. Swamiji explained two stories on true love, one is the husband who pretended to be blind for his wife, and the grand father Bheeshma. The story of Chaitanya mahaprabhu’s servant Govind is extreme example as well. Thank you swamiji for sharing this knowledge with us.
Hare Krishna
🙏🙏 Thank you swamiji. The story of Bhishma pitamaha was very inspiring.🙏🙏
Wonderful explanation on the quality of real love. Actually love is the altimate and highest quality virtue amongst all virtues. True love is the ultimate stage of our inner growth.
All the examples in this video are very nice... specially Sri Chaitanya mahaprabhu 's and Pitamah vishma's example are deeply heart touching.
Thank you Swami ji 🙏🙏🙏
Very nicely explained True love. Thanks Swamiji
ఫలితము ఆశించకూడదు. భగవంతుడు ఏమి ఇచ్చిన ఆనందముగా స్వీకరించాలి
radhey radhey🙏🌺🍒 swami ji Srimad sadguru sarkar ji ki.jai
Very beautiful video. True love means what God give us and accept his grace in any form. Don't complain what he gives.
Happy Birthday Swamiji! Pranams at your lotus feet. Love and like are often used but after understanding them through your video, I will use them wisely. Thank you for explaining them so well.
So beautiful explained SwamiJi the difference between true love, lust and business. The takeaway for me here is that no matter what situation God puts us in and no matter what is the result of our actions we should keep finding bliss in it , that would qualify for true love towards God.

Very well said!
Thanks for the valuable message swamiji 🙏🏻
Our real nature is to love only God. It is pure. All others are impure. We souls naturally attain our infinite lives goal by loving ❤️ to the Supreme lord. Swamiji explained very nicely here how we can do it and increase time to time. Happy birthday swamiji ❤❤
Thank you for the video. Have a blessed day.
Adverse plans by God are created to uplift us. We should love and trust God in all circumstances. 🙏🏼
Amazing explanation Thank you swami ji For defining us the difference between Like and love.. ❤
Whether God blesses or behaves indifferently or behaves unfavourably, a devotee always keeps increasing love for God ... The jalebi is crooked but is full of ras ❤ 13:38. The blind husband's story is moving but Bhisma's unshakeable devotion is all inspiring😍😇🙏 Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's disciple beautifully teaches us stop selfseeking🙏

You have summarized it very well! So much food for thought and so critical to put into practice for our spiritual upliftment.
Real love is so pure and divine that it is hardly found. It's an elevated state of mind far from worldly happiness.

Very true, and that elevated state is perhaps the pinnacle of all spiritual learning.
Beautiful Explenation
No matter how God and Guru behaves with us, the devotee/disciple relishes in it, Love you Swamiji ❤♥️💐
1. Bhishma's devotion (5 ⭐️) 2. Husband pretending blind (4⭐️)
Beautiful definition of true love. Love is all about selflessly giving to someone without expecting anything in return

The only thing that truly defines love is selfless seva, and this lesson is greatly assisting me in moving forward. The sevak Govind of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is a prime example of Niskaam sevak. I also thought that couple's example was wonderful. I sincerely appreciate your wonderful discussion on this subject, Swamiji.

All stories
Thank you for sharing everything 🙂 But Bhishma's devotion helped me the most to deeper understand the Mahabharata, because I was actually really conflicted, for I always felt so much love and affection for Bhishma - but felt bad about that, since he was serving the Kauravas. Now I feel much relieved. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!
Beautifully explained from you lotus mouth Swamiji
Expaction destroys love
There is a difference between lust that is today's love and real love
So amezing and true meaning of Love with beautiful example. Thank you swamiji 🙏🙏🙏
The love that lasts forever is true love.
Excellent guruji
Thank you Swamiji🙏beautifully explained🙏Hare Krishna🙏🌹
Love is pure, untainted, selfless and there is only give, give, give in it.
Swamiji beautifully described the 3 kinds of love, lust, business and love. Lust is take, take and take. Business is give and take. Love is give, give and give. Lust and Business has our own self interest of seeking happiness while Love is happiness of the Beloved. The beautiful example of the husband pretending to be blind for his wife’s happiness and Bhisma’s reaction to Krishnas angry form is true love.
We have material mind through we do lust and business of love to material peoples.Also the same mind can able to love the supreme lord shree krishna. And can bless by infinite happiness.Such blissful and true word spoken by swamiji and so beautiful example.🙏
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Bhishma mahapita's story. Irrespective of the God's behavior or tests given by him, we just love him unconditionally that is true love.🙏
In the world,we deal with lust and business but true love can be found only in spiritual spbere .
🙏🙏
' Love is not love that alters when alterations finds ' . There may be adversities , reasons to misunderstand , and stay apart . But true love will overcome these trying times with patience , understanding , unselfishness and sacrifice .
What situation does God give us we have to take that as a blessing 🙏🙏🙏

True love is to give. When whatever behaviour beloved may do our love remains unaffected, then that's true love.Worldly love what we are finding that is lust and aim is to get not to give.
