This happened in Mayapur, a village close to Kolkata. I was with Radhanath Swami as he conversed with one of his students. I followed the pleasant exchanges closely, attempting to zero-in on Radhanath Swami’s secret strategy: how does he keep his students happy and inspired in spirituality? I already knew him as an expert manager, managing many big projects all over the world.
When the conversation ended and the student strutted away, all smiles, I turned to Radhanath Swami. “What’s your strategy for him?”
His reply left me speechless. “Strategies are for projects. But for people, it’s directly from the heart.”

Wow !! That was direct dil se…. 🙂
Its amazing how Radhanath Swami takes every devotees life personally to his heart in spite of guiding so many people in their spiritual lives. It is very easy to not take apparently new devotees seriously. But Radhanath Swami exemplifies humility.

It is amazing how Radhanath Swami takes each and every devotees personal troubles so close to his own heart, in spite of having so many followers.
be it project or people,maharaj always speaks out from his heart
This reminds me of one incident when I was a relatively new student of Maharaj. It shows the loving human nature of such genuinely benevolent personalities. When I was introduced to another student, I instinctively became somewhat formal, but he just literally pushed us into embracing one another. HH Radhanath Maharaj ki Jai !!
touching. hare bol.
answers to all our unanswered questions…
So true.
Only heart can touch heart.
Thank you for sharing.
Hare Krishna.
This is truely heart touching reply of Radhanath Swami Maharaj.
Radhanath Swami can say such words and really mean them, which is a great inspiration. Someone once said about him: In this world it is often the case that people are used and things are loved. But you Radhanath Maharaj…you use things in the service of God and love people.

Radhanatha Swami Maharaj ki Jai
Since it really came from his heart, Radhanath Swami gave a prompt reply. Actually the secret lies in the love & compassion of his heart.

Very deep point – teaching how we have to value people around us in various relationships. Treat every person as an individual and not as part of some scheme of making profit. Offcourse some relationships are purely based on business, still this human view is quite needed to try to deal genuinely.
This needs a Spiritual vision that only the likes of Radhanath Swami can teach…
Easily quoted. Difficult to perform. Radhanath Swami seems to follow what he says therefore his realizations are not bookish knowledge.
I wonder how big his golden heart is…………
I like this quote ” Association of people striving for determination help us to become determine”.
Very much correct.For people we need direct contact to the heart.
really wonderful..this shows the greatness of heart..
Beautiful!
Radhanath Swami Maharaja’s open secret is that he does nothing half-heartedly. Amazing! That is easier said than done.
A self realized soul serve and care all the soul as each aoul is part and parcel of Krishna

This is so deep and vast statement and at the same time perfectly true for the life of Radhanath Swami. Who ever has seen him closely will agree that this is the real secrete behind his success. He never treats people as projects but as His own dear and near ones..so genuine and loving…This attracts one and all as it is the exactly the thing that every heart is searching for.
H.H.Radhanath Maharaj does everything through his heart. thanks for sharing Maharaj’s conversation with us.
Association of people striving for determination help us to become determine. I like this quote very much.
The spontaneous reply of Radhanath Swami shows his guanine behavior while dealing with other personalities. This incident also illustrates how people around Radhanath Swami are happy and inspired in spirituality. Radhanath Swami knows well the art of keeping people truly happy.
. “Strategies are for projects. But for people, it’s directly from the heart.”Such a deep statement. Truly Radhanath Swami’s secret stratergy. Now happy- It’s an open secret.
Very touching!
All Glories to H.H.Radhanath Swami Maharaj
