MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 944
Radhe krishna,
Good morning & have a blessed day,
Presence of Mind
Just reflect for a while when you have failed in an attempt. Try to be
more careful in the next attempt. Try to remove those factors that led
you to fail previously. Fortify yourself now. Be careful and vigilant.
Be active and nimble as the squirrel. Be quick and at the same time be
capable and efficient. Do not commit mistakes.
swami sivananda
So, this inner state of jagriti is the keynote to successful spiritual
life—to always be in a constant inner state of jagriti, wakefulness,
no matter where you are. It ensures a certain state of mind: “If I am
always aware that I have attained the lofty status of a manava—a
thinking, reasoning animal—then I must base my life on rationality,
think before I do something, and select that which is noble, which is
good, sreyas. I must try to be an ideal human being and not give way
to animal propensities. I must put this status to the highest and best
use, and thus benefit myself and benefit humanity.” This awareness
itself becomes an urge for striving for perfection, an urge towards
idealism.
