18 Rules
Swamiji gave us 18 rules as an easy path to reach the lotus feet ofDivine mother. Lord Krishna gave 18 Chapters for living in Srimad Bagavathgeetha;in the same way these 18 rules are given.
The 18 rules are given in such way that they can be embedded in our daily lives. The first rule is “Love all living beings”. If we can follow this rule truly then it is sure that the rest of the rules are easier to follow.
