Stilling the Mind
The Shrimad-Bhagavat was first recited by Shukadeva Gosvami and was repeated for the second time in the forest of Naimisharanya. Naimisharanya is not just an area of land, it is also traditionally a venue for speakers and listeners. Spiritually, Naimisharanya is wherever the mind becomes still. In the Shrimad-Bhagavat, Brahmaji states that the mind is very unsteady. Whenever it becomes still, that should become the place for meditation and bhajan. The problem is that the mind is never still; it is an uphill task to still the ever-fleeting mind. The remedy of stilling our fleeting mind is vairagya, being unattached to the temporal knowing them to be transitory by nature. Whenever your mind gets stilled, that is your Naimisharanya.
