MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 845
Radhe krishna,
Good morning & have a blessed day,
IMPORTANCE OF SLEEP
Swami Sivananda
According to an old adage, there should be six hours of sleep for a
man, seven for a woman and eight for a fool. As age advances, people
require less sleep. In old men above 60 years, five hours of sleep may
be sufficient. Adults who do hard physical labour may sleep for eight
hours. Go to bed at 10 p.m. and get up at 4 a.m. Too much sleep makes
a man dull and lethargic.
Brahman is different from the world; yet there is nothing which is not
Brahman. If anything other than Brahman is seen, it is an illusory as
water in the mirage.
- Swami Sivananda
May responding to this call be your one great task, great privilege.
May this be your joyful
duty. Blossom like a lotus in the midst of the water and mud of this
samsara
. Shine like a diamond
amidst pebbles. Be wakeful amongst the slumbering, alert amongst the
heedless, active amongst the
lethargic, and thus transcend appearances. Become rooted in Reality
and celebrate your life as a
glorious overcoming, victory and attainment!

Chant the Maha Mantra
