Radhe krishna,

Have a blessed day,

SECRET OF SUCCESS

Swami Sivananda

Yam a (self-restraint) is the foundation of Yoga. Many aspirants get a downfall because they do not practise Yama to perfection. They jump at once to the piactice of meditation. Self-realization demands perfect renunciation. Light the fire of dispassion at the doors of all the senses. He who is endowed with true and lasting Vairagya (dispassion) is fit for attaining the knowledge of the Self. An aspirant with a wavering mind will not be able to attain success in Yoga. The aspirant must be bold, cheerful and self-reliant. Yoga should be practised with a firm conviction, iron determination, patience and dispassion. True Tapas is meditation on Atma. True Tapas is fixing the mind on Atma. True Tapas is to turn the mind towards God. 

A real devotee fears nothing. Maya cannot do anything to him as he has got the Name of the Lord ever upon his lips.

- Swami Chidananda
