#1 Reason Faith Speeds Up Your Spiritual Progress - Shree Krishna Reveals | Swami Mukundananda

Shree Krishna now introduces the concept of faith in the context of knowledge. Not all spiritual truths are immediately perceptible; some of them can only be experienced after having attained sufficient elevation on the path. If we only accept what we can presently verify or comprehend, we will be bereft of the higher spiritual secrets. Faith helps us accept what we cannot understand at present.

श्रद्धावान् लभते ज्ञानं तत्पर: संयतेन्द्रिय: |
ज्ञानं लब्ध्वा परां शान्तिमचिरेणाधिगच्छति || 39||
shraddhavanllabhate jnanam tat-parah sanyatendriyah
jnanam labdhva param shantim achirenadhigachchhati
Jagadguru Shankaracharya has defined faith as follows:
guru vedānta vākyeṣhu dṛiḍho viśhvāsaḥ śhraddhā
“Faith means firm confidence in the words of the Guru and the scriptures.”
When such faith is placed upon the wrong personality, it can lead to disastrous consequences. But when placed on the true Guru, it opens the pathway for eternal welfare. However, blind faith is not a desirable thing. Before placing it on any Guru, we must use our intellect to confirm that the Guru has realized the Absolute Truth, and he is teaching it in accordance with the eternal Vedic scriptures. Once this is confirmed, then we should strive to deepen our faith in such a Guru, and surrender to God under his guidance.
The Shvetashvatar Upaniṣhad states:
yasya deve parā bhaktir yathā deve tathā gurau
tasyaite kathitā hyarthāḥ prakāśhante mahātmanaḥ (6.23)
“The imports of all the Vedic knowledge is revealed within the hearts of those who engage with unflinching faith in devotion toward Guru and God.”

To become a recipient of transcendental knowledge, we must have deep faith on the words of our Guru and the Vedic scriptures. That knowledge will destroy all the stress, tension and everything that hampers our peace of mind by changing our perspective. As a result, we will attain that peace of mind which is true, eternal and perfect.
