Best way to please God

Best way to please God
A Devotee asked:
What is the best way to please God?

The saintly gives this answer.
What best pleases somebody should be expressed by that person himself.

What best pleases you need not be the best that pleases God.

People generally rub their liking on God and propagate that their liking is the best path to please God and hence, everybody should follow it.

Suppose you are a good singer. You will propagate that God is always pleased by only songs.
You expect that everybody should believe this and promote the art of singing and in such process, you will be also engaged and benefitted.

You have taken this path since God is not speaking anything represented by Murtis or photos. Thus, everybody is exploiting God.

All this is utterly wrong because God has already spoken and His speech was recorded by the ancient sages in the texts name “Veda”.

Therefore, the Veda is considered to be the best and first authority of spiritual knowledge. The next authority is the speech of God in Human form called as the Gita.

The first authority is Shruti heard or revealed texts (the Veda) and the second authority is the remembered Smruti (the Gita). There cannot be a contradiction between these two since the same God is the author.

The third authority is logical discussion (Yukti) and the fourth is experience in the world (anubhava).

All these four should be present for the full validity. The Yukti and Anubhava logical discussion and experience are authorities only to check the misinterpretation of the speech of God.

God is the highest and so the achievement of God also will be with highest difficulty. The status of the fruit indicates the status of effort also.

Pe6ople want to please God through any means.  Some feel if they make a sizeable donation that's enough.

Money is the root of the world and even the family also. If there is no money, even your life leaves you due to hunger!

The Smruit’s (Gita) says that you can please God by sacrificing the fruit of your hard work (Karma Phala Tyaga).

Therefore, the best service is the sacrifice of the thing on which your love is the highest. The spiritual fruits of worship.

The lord becomes pleased with our fruits we offer it is called as Phalam. Are they physical fruits the Lord is speaking about?

The real fruit of silence is PRAYER.
The real fruit of prayer is FAITH.
The faith fruit of faith is LOVE.
The real fruit of love is SERVICE.
The real fruit of service is PEACE.
And finally the real fruit to attain PEACE is SERVICE for our ACTIONS speaks LOUDER than WORDS .......Jai Bhagavan!!!!!!!
