SPIRITUAL CULTURE

Swami Sivananda

Go to bed early. Get up at 4 a.m. Answer calls of nature, clean the mouth and take a bath. Recite some prayers and hymns on God, practise control of breath, repeat the Lord's name, and meditate from 5 to 6 a.m. Sit in an easy posture throughout, without movement. Increase the duration by gradual practice. Perform your daily routine of religious observances and worship, if any. Write your favourite Name of the Lord such as Om, Sri Ram, Jesus, Om Namah Sivaya— in your note book for 10 to 30xminutes. Sing the glory of God, prayers, hymns, etc., for half to one hour at night, with family and friends. Make annual resolves on the above lines. Regularity, tenacity and fixity are essential. Record your spiritual practices in a spiritual diary daily. Review it every month and correct your failures.

Every day, each hour, each moment is an opportunity for you to elevate your consciousness into the highest supreme state of Divinity.

RAdhe krishna,
Have a blessed day,

PSYCHIC CULTURE

Swami Sivananda
Study one chapter or 10 to 25 verses from your religious book daily. Attend religious meetings, hear the discourses of saints at every opportunity. Organize such functions on Sundays or holidays. Visit a temple or place of worship once a week and arrange to hold religious meetings or discourses there. Spend holidays and live in the company of saints, or practise spiritual practices at holy places in seclusion.

Act, but let not action be a fetter. Act, but be free. Offer your action as worship of God. When every action is made an act of devotion, then quickly the living presence is felt within.

- Swami Sivananda
The more you spend your energy in elevating and serving others, the more Divine energy
will flow to you.
Think positively. You grow into the likeness of the thought picture which you hold on to
with sincerity and persistence. Contemplate upon your ideal into which you wish to grow. This
forms part of daily Spiritual life.
Seek the Immortal Self. Aspire for Bliss Eternal. Strive to find Reality. He who strives,
finds.
Swami Chidananda
Chant the Maha Mantra

MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION1195

MESSAFE FOR CONTEMPLATION 1195

Radhe  krishna,
Have a blessed day,

SUSPICION

Swami Sivananda
Too much suspicious nature is also very bad. This is the opposite of over-credulousness. Mind always moves in extremes. The husband suspects the wife; the wife suspects the husband. There is always a tug-of-war and trouble in the house. The employer suspects his employee, and vice versa. How can business go on smoothly? The world moves on faith. A measure of faith is very necessary in life. A little trust, goodwill and understanding make life tolerable. By a positive attitude one can certainly improve a man who is in the wrong path. By suspicion one can turn even a good man sour. Your attitude to others is a reflection of your mind. If people are too much suspicious, friction and rupture will always go on. Allow a margin and try the goodness in others to prove itself. Do not go to extremes. Do not be over-credulous. Do not be over-suspicious.

Know the value of time. You cannot salvage a second spent in worthless ways. Time is most precious. Utilise every second in spiritual pursuits and service.

- Swami Sivananda

The great goal of life is God-realisation. Live to attain this aim. This goal alone is worth
attaining in this life. Pray to the Lord daily. Speak the truth. Do not hate anyone. Respect elders.
Help others. Live a simple and pure life. This is Divine life. This leads you to attain perfection in
life.

ENERGY CULTURE

Swami Sivananda
Observe silence for two hours daily, or four to eight hours on Sundays. Observe celibacy according to your age and circumstances. Restrict the indulgence to once a month. Decrease it gradually to once a year. Finally take a vow of abstinence for the whole life.
Love Divine is the Supreme gift, the greatest force in the world. The grace of God is
obtained by true devotion. Devotion is the means to attain Bliss Infinite. The highest form of
devotion is to offer everything as a sacrifice to God—your thoughts, actions, desires and
everything. If you do this you will attain intuitive vision of identity with Him
Swami Chidananda

Study, reflection and meditation are the processes of the method of selftranscendence.
