Radhe krishna,
Good morning & have a blessed day,
BLESSING OF ALL BLESSINGS
Swami Sivananda
To have self-control, to have a balanced mind in success and failure,
victory and defeat, pain and pleasure, to have equal vision, to
manifest the divinity within through daily regular meditation, to be
brave and march forward in the spiritual path, breaking all barriers
and conquering all the obstacles that stand in the way, to realise God
and dwell in His supreme abode enjoying the permanent bliss and Ananda
and attain the Goal of Life - this is the blessing of all blessings.
Awake, arise, and stop not till you achieve the Goal of Life!
Even if you have nothing to eat. Even if you are under the role of
unemployment, even if you are clad in rages, you are essentially
Satchidananda Swaroopa: assert. Affirm, Recognise, Realise this, and
be free o Ram!
- Swami Sivananda
There is a fountain of joy, an ocean of bliss, a mine, a magazine of
power that has to be tapped.
If you know this and if you live in the knowledge of this truth, then
there is no diffidence, there is
no faltering, there is no hesitation. You know you can conquer. You
know you can overcome.
Everything is under your control. You have power over all
circumstances. All external factors
are powerless before your inherent inner power. You have got the
resources and potential for
every need, every need of yours. Only, you have to focus upon them.
May we live in this awareness. We thank God every day upon waking:
“Thank You for
my being what I am at this moment. Thank you, God, for making me what
I am”. We have to
start off from where we are. Nature accepts totally everything as it
is. It does not make any
demand. But even while accepting everything just as it is, Nature
expects each thing to go on
improving, to go on becoming better and better, day by day to go on
improving from better to
still better, day by day. That is what Nature, life, divine will,
expects from each one of us. Not
to stay where we are, but ever to excel, ever to plod onward, ever to
step higher and higher until
we reach the pinnacle. That is the grand adventure of life, ever
trying to ascend to the peak of
perfection in life.
Sankaracharya made it convincing and certain beyond doubt that this
state of perfection
was not to be achieved in some distant postmortem existence after
death, in some heaven. No.
He said, “Now and here”. Liberation is now and here, in this life.
This is what Sankaracharya
insisted upon. This perfection, this pinnacle-point of perfection is
to be attained and achieved,
now, here. That is life. Minus that, life is no life.
