MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 1192
Radhe krishba,
Have a blessed day,
THE FRUITS OF A RELIGIOUS LIFE
Swami SivanandaReligion is the foundation of society, the source of all goodness and happiness, the basis of the virtue and prosperity of the individual, and through the individuals, of the nation. Civilisation, order, morality-all that elevate man and give peace to the nation-are the fruits of the practice of religion. Take away religion. Man then lives to no purpose. He stays far away from the purposes of his birth. Life becomes a dreary waste here. There is no living without religion. It is only religion that makes existence valuable, and fills the mind with love, devotion, serenity and cheerfulness.
Therefore, in order to be able to propagate the Sadhu ideal, the ideal of divine quest, the
quest after Truth, I pray with folded hands that you should:
(1) Get all the books on the lives of saints, that you can and study them.
(2) Hold a Satsanga in your own house and narrate the lives of saints to your family and
children and friends.
(3) Save the money that you waste on luxuries and with that amount print and distribute
widely leaflets and pamphlets embodying the lives of saints.
Thus your own life will be transformed. Thus thinking constantly of saints, you will
yourself become a saint. And, you will help others transform their lives, too, and grow into saints.
This is the best and the most practical way in which you can promote the ideal of a Sadhu life.
Swami Chidananda.
