MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 1182

Radhe krishna,
Have a blessed day,

WILL CULTURE

Swami Sivananda
Attention, power of endurance, overcoming aversion, dislikes and irritation, fortitude in suffering, austerities, patience, control of temper, forbearance, power of resistance—all these pave a long way in developing the will. Patient hearing develops will and wins the hearts of others. Never complain against bad environments. Create your own mental world wherever you remain, wherever you go. If you get all sorts of comforts in a place, if all are amiable to you, you will not grow. You should not try to run away from unfavourable environments. God wishes to make you grow quickly. Therefore, make the best use of any situation. Nothing should upset your mind. Your will must grow. Try to live happily in any place, under any condition. You will have a strong and dynamic personality.


You are a quick passenger to your eternally shining original abode. So, on your way, while you are here on earth for a short while, try to bring about a little happiness to others, try to wipe out tears from others′ eyes.
- Swami Chidananda

WILL CULTURE

Swami Sivananda
The student should pay great attention to develop his will-power. Will is a dynamic soul-force. Will, if rendered pure and irresistible, can work wonders. There is nothing impossible for a man of strong will. When a desire is controlled, it becomes transformed into will. The sexual energy, muscular energy, and every other conserved energy are transmuted into will-power. Fewer the desires, stronger the will. The will becomes impure and weak through cravings or desires. When the will operates, all mental powers such as power of judgment, power of memory, power of grasping, reasoning power, discriminating power, power of inference, power of reflection—all these come into effective play.

Satsanga or association with the sages and regular meditation on the imperishable Soul will liberate you from the round of births and deaths.

- Swami Sivananda
Be still. Be in tune with the Divine Will. Let go all worries. Cast out all cares and anxieties.
Get deep down into the innermost core of your heart and plunge into the ocean of peace.
Swami Chidananda

HOW TO CONTROL ANGER

Swami Sivananda
Observe silence for two hours daily and six hours on Sundays. Occasionally observe silence for a whole day. This will put a check on the impulses of irritability. The vital breath (life-principle) entwines the mind like a creeper. Control of this life-principle leads to the control of the mind. Practice of control of breath will put a check on the impulse of speech. It will give you abundant energy to control anger. If you look into the defects of anger and benefits of patience, you will never become angry. The combined practice of these methods will enable you to control anger and bestow upon you spiritual strength, peace and happiness
Kindly try and spend some time daily, even for a few minutes in silent communion with the
Lord. Think of His Divine attributes such as boundless compassion, mercy and love. Pray to Him
with deep devotion. Seek His guidance and protection in all your daily affairs. He will soon become
your loving companion.
Swami Chidananda

Do not make the mistake of thinking that the soul is inside you, because if the soul is inside you, you will be outside it.

The success in meditation depends upon the degree to which we develop our love for God. The more we love God, the more our attention is attracted towards Him. The more we feel this attraction, the more we enjoy our meditation.

MEMORY CULTURE

Swami Sivananda
Health plays an important part in memory culture. Therefore, try to keep a high standard of health, vigour and vitality, by proper food, exercise and relaxation. Blessed is he who develops good memory and the power of concentration, for he will attain God as he can remember Him quite easily, and would not forget and repeat the mistakes of the past. Generally, people are very careless. They have no interest in higher things, nor do they wish to have a fund of knowledge. India, the land of sages and saints, still abounds in ignorance when compared with some other countries. The masses of India are steeped in ignorance. The root cause is carelessness, indifference and cold apathy. This must be remedied, To get success in life, to become an able doctor, or a lawyer, or a good, successful businessman, the ears and the eyes should be trained to learn as much as they can. 

We always think that if we get some other environment or condition, we′ll live spiritually. That is self-deception and a trick of the mind and is what is known as Maya.

MEMORY CULTURE

Swami Sivananda
The ancient system of education had its own advantages. It developed memory to a marvellous extent Celibacy, dietetic adjustment and discipline of the senses are very essential for developing memory. The seminal energy has a direct, intimate connection with the cells of the sub-conscious mind and brain. Bad memory is due largely to heavy loss of seminal energy. Young school and college students do not realize the vital importance of celibacy. They grope in utter darkness. Their minds are filled with lustful thoughts. They indulge in such type of novel-reading that excites passion. They eat whatever they like. They have no idea of pure diet and the effects of unwholesome food on the different compartments of the brain. Hence they fail in theiSTOTRASr lives and lead a cheerless, gloomy life, in darkness and despair. 
Pray to God daily. Read spiritual books. Books are the source of great inspiration. Read only
good books which convey only positive thoughts. Feel the presence of God wherever you go. You
are in Him and He is in you. Remember this.
Swami Chidananda

The control of the mind is equal to the finding of the relation between the finite and the Infinite. Great persistence, great understanding and capacity to discriminate is here called for.
