Radhe krishnam

Have a blessed day,

SELF-CONTROL

Swami Sivananda

The aspirant controls his senses through Viveka or discriminative knowledge. Self-restraint is a continuous process. Eternal vigilance is the essential requisite throughout Sadhana. Even though the aspirant may possess discriminative knowledge and strive his level best to control senses, the old Samskaras may forcibly carry away his mind if he ceases to be vigilant. Although sage Viswamitra was practising severe austerities, he was carried away by his turbulent senses when he came across the celestial nymph, sent by Indra to disturb his austerities, because he was not vigilant. Just as the child enjoys full security and peace when he is in the lap of his mother, so also the aspirant can enjoy abiding peace only 

This life is too short and too precious to be wasted away in worrying what people think and say about us.

- Swami Chidananda
