MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 1215

 MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 1215

Radhe krishna,
Have a blessed day,

ABSTINENCE

Swami Sivananda
Abstinence is abstaining or refraining especially from some indulgence. Abstinence is temperance. Abstinence is refraining from the use of intoxicating drinks, self-denial, self-restraint, and abstaining from sexual indulgence and over-eating. Abstinence is continued temperance which gives longevity, good health, and keeps the body free from diseases. Abstinence is a discipline which gives dispassion and helps the aspirant to march forward in the spiritual path. The aim of abstinence is to set the mind above the lower appetites. Drunkenness, excess, gluttony, greed, intemperance, intoxication, revelling, self-indulgence, sensuality and wantonness, are the opposites of abstinence. Abstemiousness, continence, fasting, moderation, self-control are synonymous with abstinence.'

To be like God is your main mission in life. He has sent you to this earth so that you might shine like Him.

- Swami Chidananda
