MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 744
Radhe krishnna,
Good morning & have a blessed day, HOW TO REALISE GOD? Swami Sivananda Forget your own interests, your own longings, your own desires. You will attain the bliss of the Supreme Self. Crucify, sacrifice the lower self, if you wish to have union with God. Empty your egoism. You will be filled with God. Lose your personality. You will find the Divine Life. You will realise God. Happiness comes when, the individual merges in God. - Swami Sivananda So, the intention of these morning urgings is to enthuse you to take up this task with keen eagerness, determination and purposefulness. Because, we have no time to lose. Gurudev used to say, “Remember death; any time it can come”. Therefore, do not be idle, do not be indifferent to important things. Do not postpone. Remember that there is no iota of pleasure or real happiness in this world. Do not be duped by your own inner desires and cravings of the mind, your own senses in this body and your own sense-objects, and your own surroundings. Do not be duped. They are all deceptive, they are all treacherous. They will entrap you. Therefore, be keen, vigorous and alert. There is no happiness in sense-objects. There is nothing to be gained through sense-satisfaction or indulgence everything to lose, nothing to gain. And, mind and its desires and cravings are your real enemies. That is where you have to fight the battle. Remember the great Reality beyond all appearances, God. Call it God, Jehovah, Almighty Father, Allah, Ahura Mazda, Supreme Tao, Ek Omkar, Satnam, Brahman, Bhagavan call It anything. There is one great stupendous, never-changing, everlasting, ever-present Reality. That is your source. That is your eternal abode. That is your origin. That is your indwelling support. That is your goal, without which life is a cipher, a zero. And that can liberate you from all pain, sorrow and suffering, all fear, bondage and limitation. That can bestow upon you true liberation, immortality. Remember the saints and sages who have taught us by their own life how to attain that Supreme Being and become free for ever from the vexations of earth life, how to attain the supreme joy, the supreme state of blessedness and liberation. swami chidananda Chant the Maha Mantra Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare BE HAPPY.
