OBSTACLES AND GENERAL HINTS

Swami Sivananda

Too much physical exertion, too much talking, too much eating, too much mixing with worldly persons, too much walking, too much sexual indulgence, too many desires, are all obstacles to concentration. Do not concentrate when the mind is tired. Do not wrestle with the mind when you concentrate. When irrelevant thoughts enter the mind, be indifferent. They will pass away. Do not drive them forcibly. They will persist and resist. It will tax your will. They will enter with redoubled force. But substitute divine thoughts. Evil thoughts will gradually fade out. Be slow and steady in the practice of concentration. Apply Brahmi-Amla oil to the head if there is much heat. Take butter and sugarcandy. This will cool the system. If you want to succeed in any walk of life, you must develop concentration. It is a source of spiritual strength. It is the master-key for opening the chamber of knowledge.

Even one little thought of God, even one single utterance of His sacred name, even for few seconds of visualizing His form immediately goes into your credit in the eternal bank.
