MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION .229
Radhe krishna,
Good morning and have a blessed day,
THE SUB-CONSCIOUS MIND
Swami Sivananda
You will find finally that there is nothing so difficult as God-experience, and yet nothing so simple as attainment. In a trice you will understand what it is. It is simple because it is yourself, and it is also difficult because it is yourself.
Swami Sivananda
The sub-conscious mind or "CHITTA" in VEDANT, as it is termed, is indeed a constant and sincere friend and companion. It consists of submerged Experience, Memories thrown into the background, BUT recoverable at all times. All actions, enjoyments and experience leave the impressions in the sub-conscious mind. The YOGI can acquire Knowledge of the previous lives through his inner VISION. Nothing can be attained without purification of chitta; hence, the purification of chitta or the sub-conscious mind is most essential, and this can be done by the right conduct and right thoughts. The sub-conscious mind can pick up the right thing from a heap of various matters. A SAMSKAR of an experience is formed in the CHITTA, which can pick up the right thing from a heap of various matters.
The great lord of dharma, Yamadharmaraja, teaches this to the brilliant, young seeker,Nachiketas, in the Kathopanishad: "Two paths open up before each individual soul at every step, O Nachiketas, that which is merely pleasant, which attracts, beguiles and is likely to tempt and divert one away, and that which is good, which will uplift us, enhance our spirituality and lead us to glory".
Swami Chidananda.
You will find finally that there is nothing so difficult as God-experience, and yet nothing so simple as attainment. In a trice you will understand what it is. It is simple because it is yourself, and it is also difficult because it is yourself.
- Swami Krishnananda.
