WHAT IS EGOTISM?

Swami Sivananda

Ego or egotism or egoism or Ahamkara is the self-asserting principle of the individual soul which gives him a sense of distinction, separation, differentiation, and puts up a barrier between himself and others. It is the ego which has created the idea of separateness from God. It is the veiling power of Maya which keeps man in ignorance. It is the ego which is the root cause for human suffering and birth and death. The ego identifies itself with the body, mind and senses. Wherever you find the play of egotism, there are "mineness," selfishness, likes and dislikes, lust, anger, greed, hypocrisy, pride, jealousy, delusion, arrogance, conceit, impertinence, craving, clinging to objects, attachment to name and form, the idea of agency or "doership" and "enjoyership."

Be of good cheer! Destiny by which the Merciful Providence is familiar to people, will help

your industry, your hard work, your prayers, your brave will and will soon show you a way out of

your predicament. Kindly conduct Satsangs at home. Kirtans, Bhajans, prayers—these are the great

spiritual treasures which will bring you material wealth too,

Swamo bChidananda

When you chant Om, do not think that you are making a sound through your mouth. It is not like that. It is your original source rising to the surface of your personality. It is something like a large wave in the ocean making a sound to make the ocean come up.

MEANS TO REALIZATION

Swami Sivananda

Adaptability, amity and understanding, a little of self-denial and co-operation, help in the promotion of peace in the house. All these can be effected through Karma Yoga. Duty for duty's sake, without expectation which is the bane of worldly life, without inordinate likes and dislikes, without selfish attachment, offering all actions to the Lord as worship done as an instrument in His hands, should be the ideal. Glory to selfless workers! May you all rejoice in bliss eternal by doing selfless service and singing the Lord's name!

God alone is. There is nothing other than Him. Whatever exists in this world is pervaded by that Supreme Being within and without. Therefore, all the time, we are experiencing God and God alone.

MEANS TO REALIZATION

Swami Sivananda

Karma Yoga is the best Yoga for the modern man. It enables you to attain God-realization quickly. King Janaka was a dynamic Karma Yogi. Mahatma Gandhi had exalted himself through Karma Yoga. There is in the daily routine of life a vast field for everyone to purify and elevate oneself. Even in family life, Karma Yoga is an essential requisite. If everybody was selfish, there will be no peace in the home. Strong attachment breeds possessiveness which is a selfish trait, and is a negation of true love,

Appeal, knock and you will be heard. The door shall be opened unto you. You need not seek far and wide for Him. He is in your heart. He has His dwelling there.

Swami SIVANANDA

Calmly if you reflect over your life and its circumstances, you would find that you enjoy
better ease and a better situation than those that are meted out by the Hand of Providence to
thousands around us. The best way out of the present difficulties is more faith in the Divine, greater
industry, more hard work, and a continued appeal to the Divine to use your energies more and more,
and afford you unasked the necessaries of life in greater measure. I am conducting special prayers
for you and I am sure the Divine Lord will not only enable you to bear your difficulties with a
cheerfulness and a calmness and a peace that belong to spiritual aspirants like you, but also to give

you opportunities for increasing your income, for overcoming your financial odds.

MEANS TO REALIZATION

Swami Sivananda

The practice of Karma Yoga is a sure means to develop your devotion to the Lord and to attain the Vedantic realization of, oneness. Without its practice no one can even dream of attaining either Bhakti or Jnana even through years of effort. Service is Bhakti expressed through action. The true expresion of love is not through words, but through service. Jnana or the oneness of life is experienced through service of the one Self in all. In the plant of Karma Yoga blossoms the flowers of Bhakti Yoga and Jnana Yoga. '

Be perfectly confident. Banish all fear from the mind. Mind is a great deceiver. It is the root
of all sorrows. Fear is itself the main disease. Throw it out of the mind. Be always smiling. Your real
nature is Joy, is Bliss. Know yourself to be different from the mind. Rise above it. Discard its

dominance by asserting your real spiritual nature. You are Soul Immortal

Swami Chid ananda

Energy neither colour, nor sound, nor touch, nor taste, nor smell. It looks like these because of our receiving sets: eyes, ears, nose, tongue, etc. So when we chant Om, we are diving deep into the very substance of the whole universe. It is as if we are melting the hard body and making it into a liquid of force.

BEST YOGA FOR dMAN

Swami Sivananda

Tolerance, equanimity, kindness, mercy, fellowship, adaptability, humility, goodness of heart, and broadmindedness can be cultivated only by the practice of Karma Yoga. The raw diamond requires cutting and polishing before it gives out its real luminous colour. Even so, the raw aspirant requires constant rubbing and polishing through service and contact with the people of different temperaments. If he can please others even amidst trying circumstances, if he can keep up a cheerful countenance in spite of difficulties, if he can maintain equanimity in the bustle of a city anad can acquire concentration of mind, it clearly proves that he has outgrown his external environments and that he is ready for spiritual enlightenment.

Wisely guide the mind, educate and train it in such a way that its thought processes are of the right quality and are taking you in the right direction.

WILLING HELPFULNESS Swami Sivananda A merciful doctor who attends on a helpless, poor patient at midnight, without any fees, is a better Yogi than the Dhyana Yogi who passes along the road silently when he sees a poor man in a famished, dying condition, without even speaking to him an encouraging word, without even asking "Brother, what do you want? Can I help you in any way?" To a real Karma Yogi meditation comes automatically and the knowledge of the Upanishads dawns easily. He gets all knowledge from the book of knowledge within through the grace of God. Anxiety is a fever of the mind. Anger is a fever of the mind. Desire is a fever of the mind. Without enquiry, the mind appears to be real; but with enquiry, it will vanish into thin air. - Swami Sivananda This body is the product of Prarabdha. It is an ever changing, unreliable vehicle which we have assumed to enter into this earth life. You are the glorious Self or the Atman that shines radiant and ever abides in its changeless shape of peace, bliss and fullness. For, it is the Divine Spark, a ray of radiance emanating from the Supreme Lord SHRI HARI Who is its Source, Support and Ultimate Destination. Body is not your true Self. It is both the vehicle and a vexing bondage too, but it is a blessing in as much as we are enabled to worship the Lord, take His Name and meditate upon His wondrous Divine Being with the help of this body. But, even independent of it you ever abide in your primal, shining state of pure Atmic being. You are Nitya, Nirmala, Sasvata, Amara Satchidananda Svarupa. To be rooted in this Truth-Consciousness is the most pleasing worship of the Lord Narayana Swami Chidananda CHANT MAHAMAMTRA Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare   Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare BE HAPPYhttps://sekhar789.blogspot.com/2017/05/sivananda-yoga-health-peace-unity.html

WILLING HELPFULNESS

Swami Sivananda

Sitting with closed eyes in a room bolted from within is no true Sadhana, if the people around happen to be in agony or in trouble. Selfishness and Sadhana can never go together. The aspirant must subordinate his own interests to those of others. He who attends on a helpless man when he is in great distress does more Sadhana than a man who practises meditation and Asana and Pranayama. If one does service to the needy for one hour, it is equal to meditation for six hours. There is no dearth of opportunities for service. 

Pray to God silently. Seek solitude and do enquiry of “WHO AM I” in right earnest. Tell your mind to constantly plunge into the thought of God. Regular practice of contemplation and meditation will bestow upon you peace and happiness. Think positively always. You grow into the likeness of the thought picture which you hold on to with sincerity and persistence. Contemplate upon the ideals into which you wish to grow. Swami Chidananda When you chant Om, you feel expanded as if you are becoming large in dimension, as the waves in the ocean become large. Om is a vibration and not merely a sound made by the mouth. The whole world is made of subtle vibration. - Swami Krishnanand CHANT MAHAMAMTRA HaCHANT re Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare   Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare BE HAPPY https://sekhar789.blogspot.com/2017/05/a-message-from-swami-sivananda-of_6.html
