Radkrishna,

Have a blessed day

WILLING HELPFULNESS

Swami Sivananda

Sitting with closed eyes in a room bolted from within is no true Sadhana, if the people around happen to be in agony or in trouble. Selfishness and Sadhana can never go together. The aspirant must subordinate his own interests to those of others. He who attends on a helpless man when he is in great distress does more Sadhana than a man who practises meditation and Asana and Pranayama. If one does service to the needy for one hour, it is equal to meditation for six hours. There is no dearth of opportunities for service. 

Pray to God silently. Seek solitude and do enquiry of “WHO AM I” in right earnest. Tell your mind to constantly plunge into the thought of God. Regular practice of contemplation and meditation will bestow upon you peace and happiness. Think positively always. You grow into the likeness of the thought picture which you hold on to with sincerity and persistence. Contemplate upon the ideals into which you wish to grow. Swami Chidananda When you chant Om, you feel expanded as if you are becoming large in dimension, as the waves in the ocean become large. Om is a vibration and not merely a sound made by the mouth. The whole world is made of subtle vibration. - Swami Krishnanand CHANT MAHAMAMTRA HaCHANT re Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare   Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare BE HAPPY https://sekhar789.blogspot.com/2017/05/a-message-from-swami-sivananda-of_6.html
