MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION.49
Radhe krishna,
Supravat.Have a blessedday,
THE HOT-BED OF ALL ABERRATIONS
Swami Sivananda
The erroneous imagination that you are the body, is the root of all evils. Through wrong thinking, you identify yourself with the body. Dehaadhyasa arises; you are attached to the body; this is Abhimana. Then Mamata (mineness) arises. You identify yourself with your wife, children, house, and so on. It is identification or attachment that brings about bondage, misery and pain. You never felt miserable when millions of Germans died in the war. Why? Because there was no identification and attachment. But you weep profusely when your son dies, on account of attachment. The word “my” produces wonderful influence on the mind. Note the difference in effects produced in the mind when you hear the two sentences: “Horse is dead” and “My horse is dead”. Empty yourself of egoism. You will be filled with God.
“I must succeed! I shall not accept failure. I may fail a hundred times, but I know I will succeed; One day I shall attain my goal.” This should be the determination of a true spiritual aspirant.
- Swami Chidananda.
