Remedies for liberation


~ Garuda asks Lord Vishnu, "O Supreme Bestower of Liberation, in this world, millions of beings are born and die every day. There is no end to this. Everyone in this world is unhappy."Only they appear to be suffering, none of them happy. Please tell us what measures can be taken to help these souls attain liberation.

Lord Vishnu said, "O King of Birds, the sin of a person who, having attained a human body, does not think about the liberation of his soul is greater than the sin of killing a Brahmin. Without a human body, no one can live.
A living being cannot understand the importance of this body. Therefore, it is essential to preserve this body and perform righteous deeds.
Wealth, houses, and good and bad deeds can be reclaimed, but not the human body. Protecting this body is essential for fulfilling one's duty, for the knowledge of duty, and for the pursuit of knowledge and yoga.There is a means of salvation. When a foolish man's house catches fire, he begins digging a well.
~ This world is a tangle of sorrows. As long as humans remain entangled in the web of attachment and illusion, they will always remain unhappy. Eating, drinking, sleeping, and satisfying desires are all engrossed in them, except for humans.There is a conscience nearby. He who does not act with conscience is an animal.
~ Therefore, as long as human beings are attached to each other, there is no liberation. If you must be attached, then be attached to God, who will remove all your suffering. To be attached to God, you need to surrender your mind and eyes.
Purity is essential. Lust, anger, greed, and ego are the factors that lead to man's downfall. Reading the Vedas and scriptures does not bring salvation unless their knowledge is capable of eradicating one's own ignorance.
~ "Mine" and "not mine" are two words. "Mine" implies bondage, and "not mine" implies liberation. Therefore, those who desire liberation should break all bonds and connect with the truth. Truth is love, love.He is God.
~ Those actions which do not lead the soul into bondage are true actions.
~ To attain "Nirvana or Brahman", when a person reaches the last stage of his life, he should detach himself from his worldly will power and firmly think in his mind "I am Brahman" or "Om".ॐ Meditate on the mantra. This purifies the mind and brings spiritual radiance.~ One who leaves his home and family and with the intention of breathing his last, dies at any one of the seven holy places - Ayodhya, Avantika, Mathura, Kashi, Gaya, Kanchi, Dwarika, attains salvation.is achieved.
~ The wise who know the difference between truth and falsehood, those who do truth, those who have religious nature, those who follow their duty, and those who have faith in me, are always dear to me
"O King of Birds, I have explained all the principles to you thoroughly. If you wish to know anything else, please tell me."
~ Hearing these words from the Lord, and pleased with the answers to his questions, Garuda bowed to the Lord of the Universe and said, "Lord, you have dispelled a great doubt of mine with your sweet words.The impurity of the mind has been removed." 
Having said this, he took leave of Lord Vishnu and went to the ashram of sage Keshav.
~ May the merciful Lord Shri Hari, whose mere name liberates one from all sorrows and curses, always shower his kind glance on his faithful devotees.
Om Namo Narayan ॐ नमो नारायण
