Lack of Peace

Q: Even after having such a great attainment (prapti) why is there lack of peace within?

Swamishri: Gunatitanand Swami has answered that it is due to: 1. Worldly desires. 2. Disobedience to the moral commands (agna) and 3. Ignorance. This means 'dehbhav' - 'I'ness and 'Mine'ness. If one realizes oneself as atma then no worldly desires remain and one will be able to obey the commands.
