Radhe krishna,
Good morning & have a blessed day,
DO GOOD FOR EVIL
Swami Sivananda
It is easy to do evil for evil, to do good for good; but It is
difficult and sublime to do good for evil. The downward path to evil
is very easy, but the upward path to good is very difficult, thorny,
and precipitous. Those who are endowed with strength and wisdom in
order to do good for evil are, indeed, blessed people. They are
veritable gods on earth.
On the eternal Vishnu—who is the all-pervading, Omnipresent,
Satchitananda Swaroop Atma, all these diverse appearances are
superimposed like ornaments of different shapes on gold.
- Swami Sivananda
Therefore, a Sadhak should be keen, very keen, very earnest that under
no account will he
allow such a state to prevail. On the contrary, if one is not so very
beautiful outside, it does not
matter. But the beauties of the Spirit should fill the interior.
Godliness, pure unalloyed divinity,
should fill the interior. The interior should be full of light; it
should be shining, it should be full
of divinity. And anything contrary should be eradicated, thrown out.
Therefore, this is Sadhana, the inner Sadhana of bringing about Chitta
Suddhi, of
cultivation of Daivi Sampat and elimination of Asuri Sampat, as the
Sixteenth Chapter of Srimad
Bhagavad Gita demands. This is Sadhana. Therefore, every Marga or path
whether it is Jnana
Yoga or Bhakti Yoga or Raja Yoga or Japa Yoga or Karma Yoga
always insists upon certain
essential positive divine qualities as ‘a must’
swami chidananda
Chant the Maha Mantra
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
BE HAPPY.
