MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION.159
Radhe krishna,
Good morning and have a blessed day,
BONDAGE AND LIBERATION
Swami Sivananda Identification with the body is bondage. Identification with the Atman is liberation. "I am body," 'This is mine," "He is my son," "She is my wife"—this is bondage, O Mokshapriya. "I am not this body," "I am all-pervading, immortal Soul," "Nothing exists," "Nothing belongs to me," "All is Brahman or the Absolute"—this is liberation, O lover of liberation. It is bondage when the mind desires anything, when it grieves over anything, when it is elevated when it gains something, when it is depressed when it loses anything. It is liberation when the mind neither desires nor grieves, when it is not elevated, when it gains something, when it is not depressed when it loses anything. . If you want to have peace, bear no ill will towards anyone. In whatever manner the other persons may behave, you should always be friendly and loving towards all. - Swami Chidananda.
