Experience the Protection of God | Dr. Archika Didi

In life, no one can ignore uncertainties. A person has to face certain unpredictable situations that may include any disease, conflict in relationships, mental trauma, loneliness, financial troubles, etc. Apart from facing them, a man has to roll in on a disturbing wave of fear, confusion, stress, and anxiety.

Moreover, sooner or later, distressing questions disturb almost everyone- questions like “Will I be disease-free? Can I repay my debt? What if I fail in the exam? Will I become successful in life?”

In such situations, people want God to show them the right path. They want to see and feel the protection that God offers. They long for encouragement, assurance, security, and courage to fight the situation. They want God to stand beside them no matter what they face.

In other words, they want to feel protected by God.

Now the question is- in difficult circumstances, how to be sure that God is with us or how to feel protected by Him?

Everyone seeks God’s Protection

In the Bhagavad Gita, Arjun asks Lord Krishna the same question. He wanted this assurance from God that the one who would perform good Karma will always be victorious in life irrespective of any circumstance.

Indeed, at times, a human being faces a number of doubts. He or she thinks, I am carrying out virtuous deeds, but I don’t know whether it will bring any positive result or not, whether I will be benefitted by it or not.

Lord Krishna answers these questions in a single sentence.

He has said firmly in the Gita that, anyone who performs virtuous deeds in life will never face any misery here, come what may, and he will be protected all the time.

So, what is the duty of a human being?

The Duties of a Human Being

The supreme duty is to remain honest in all your deeds. Never hurt others, carry out your duties in good conscience and know that, God never forgets your deeds. He always remembers all your Karma- both wise and unwise.

Further, the God-made nature brings results automatically for every human being. So, refrain from getting attached to the fruits. The best outcome will find you eventually. Perform your Karma with a meditative heart and God will bestow you with the best result.

Remember one fact also- your Dharma protects you always. So, protect your Dharma by choosing the right path, and get protected by it.

Get a Protective Shield

This is also a fact that a protective shield emerges around people who are moving on the path of righteousness seeking protection. Endeavour to move on the right path always so that such a shield also covers you owing to your virtuous deeds.

Look carefully and you will find a ‘Brahma Kavach’ around Yogis and seekers who meditate. This divine shield remains impenetrable by any negativity. Ordinary people, however, may easily get influenced by negative thoughts and fear that may even affect their mental health.

But if you are reading Gita regularly, offering prayers from your heart, and participating in devotional services, these negativities vanish automatically from your life giving way to a Brahma Kavach around you.

Therefore, always try to perform virtuous deeds, move on the path of righteousness and spend your life with pious resolutions.

You’ll find that God and His blessings are protecting you all the time and they are helping you cross the difficult phases of life successfully.
