MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 1180
Radhe krishna,
Have a blessed day,
NON-INJURY
Swami SivanandaNon-injury, of course, implies non-killing. It is development of the mental attitude in which hatred is replaced by love. Non-injury needs a harmless mind, mouth and hand. Non-injury is not merely non-killing, but in its comprehensive meaning means entire abstinence from causing pain or harm whatsoever to any living creature, either by thought, word or deed. Perfection in practice of this great virtue is not possible without the perfect practice of truth and continence. Mercy, control of anger, freedom from malice and pride, restraint of senses help the practice of non-injury.
You have to understand it whether you are alone or amidst people. On the other hand, when
you are alone, mind gets an opportunity to have its full play. What is this mysterious thing which is
such a problem for the Sadhaka, without which he cannot do Sadhana but which, if not managed,
pulls him down? How does the mind work? If we could have a basic knowledge of its nature, then
we can hope of devising some means of gaining control over it.

Swami Chidananda
The highest fulfilment is the result of the highest renunciation. The less you want, the more you get. He who wants nothing from the world finds the world falling at his feet. Even the gods are afraid of him who wants nothing for himself.
