Q. Gurudev, what is my lakshya, goal? I am not satisfied with anything, what will satisfy me? I want to become a Yogi, leave this world, but I have family and responsibilities. Please guide.

Sri Sri: No, no, no, you should not leave your family responsibility. You should do all that work; you have to keep doing all your work, all your responsibilities, still being a yogi is the greatest thing. You can do that-still being a yogi in spite of having everything around you. Running away from everything is not necessary. And you know when people run away and become Swamis, they are not running away to become Swamis really, they are taking bigger responsibility. If you say you want to leave one family responsibility and come, to this I won't agree. You should be able to care for ten thousand families, only then you can come to an ashram. You should be able to care for not one family, but many families. Swamis are the one who care for many families as their own family, and are not a runaway. So, if you have responsibility, if you take care of them, do it. At the same time, take more responsibilities of others as well and become a teacher; teach everyone around you.
