RULES FOR MENTAL HEALTH

Swami Sivananda

If you want, to possess good mental health, you must be always cheerful. You must cultivate this virtue again and again. Cheerfulness acts as the best mental tonic. Depression, gloom, cheerlessness corrode the mind. There is an intimate connection between the mind and the body. Body is a mould prepared by the mind for its enjoyment. If there is any physical ailment the mind reacts, and vice versa. If there is depression, you do not have good appetite, you feel very weak, you cannot walk briskly, you cannot do any work with intense attention and application. If there is pain in the physical body, you cannot think properly, you cannot meditate. This is the common experience of all.

In all the problems of your life put this question to yourself, “Is this thing going to take me
nearer to the ultimate spiritual attainment, to the achievement of Divine Perfection, or is it going to
slow me down in my progress towards the fulfilment of my inner life?” This will be the criterion. If
a thing takes you towards the worldly life and binds you to the heavy wheels of Samsaric existence,
then reject it; but if it hastens your movement towards the obtainment of God-vision and

God-experience, then adopt it

Swami Chidananda

The practice of yoga is the art of contacting the Absolute. This union is a metaphorical one, not a physical contact, in the sense that in yoga there is the union of our consciousness in the present context with the supreme essence that we are.
