Radhe krishna,

Good morning and have a blessed day,

POWER OF PRAYER

Swami Sivananda

Common mass-prayer is very inspiring. A huge spiritual current is generated during mass-prayer. Gayatri Japa is a prayer. The devotee asks for illumination of the intellect so that he can know his real, essential divine nature. "Dhiyo yo nah prachodayat—May He enlighten our intellect." This is an unselfish prayer. Mrityunjaya Mantra Japa also is a prayer. It is a prayer to Lord Siva. The devotee asks "Free me from bondage and death. Make me immortal. Go through the book "Gems of Prayers." It contains a thousand and one prayers. There are common or universal prayers, etc. It is an inspiring book.

God tries most severely whom He wishes to bless.

- Swami Sivananda

Let us reflect well upon these facts and truths about our spiritual life and become the fortunate few who reach the Goal. It is those that keep on struggling upwards that reach the peak of  the mountain, not those who keep on looking back at the distance already climbed. That is irrelevant. Those who keep looking ahead at the ever-shortening distance between themselves and the peak climb and attain the Goal. They say: ìI am drawing nearer. The peak is closer to me nowîThis is the vision that grants fulfilment.

Swami Chidananda.

Chant the Maha Mantra
