The clamour of the senses has to be silenced....

The farmer, intent on cultivation,
ignores even food and sleep, 
for he is too busy ploughing, levelling, 
scattering seeds, watering, weeding, 
guarding and fostering the crop.

He knows that his family will have to
subsist on the harvest that he brings home 
and that if he fritters away the precious season in idle pursuits,
his family will be confronted with hunger and ill-health. 

So, he sets aside or postpones
other pursuits and focuses all his attention on farming alone. 

He puts up with difficulties and deprivations,
toils day and night, watches over the growing crops 
and garners the grain. 

As a consequence, he is able to spend
the months ahead, in peace and joy, with his happy family. 

Students and spiritual seekers have to 
learn important lessons from the farmer. 

The stage of youth is the season 
for mental and intellectual culture. 

These years should be intensively and
intelligently cultivated; irrespective of difficulties and obstacles. 

The clamour of the senses has to be silenced; 
hunger and thirst have to be controlled; the urge 
to sleep and relax has to be curbed.

Remembering the divine name is BEST for all of us...

There are many snakes of wicked qualities 
in the anthill of your heart. 
 
When you do remembering the divine name
all the 'snakes' of bad qualities will come out.  
 
Remembering the divine name is like 
the musical wind instrument which attracts snakes 
and brings them out of anthills. 
 
This remembering the divine name is your breath of life. 
One has to repeat God’s name in order to get rid of evil qualities. 
 
Today there are many who do not attach any importance to it.
It is a great mistake.
 
Chanting of the divine name can redeem your lives. 
There is no other refuge. Singing the glory of the Lord is highly sacred!

Recognise the truth that God pervades everything from mircrocosm to macrocosm...

It is a matter of great bliss to be loved by many. 
To win over the hearts of so many is a sign of Divinity.
 
God loves everyone and everyone loves God. 
 Do not hurt anyone by your harsh words and 
do not enter into any evil paths. 
 
Recognise the truth that God pervades 
everything from microcosm to macrocosm. 
 
With sincerity of purpose and faith and self-confidence, 
you can achieve anything in the world. 
 
Love God from the depths of your heart. 
Follow God's commands and you will attain everything
and be victorious in all your endeavours!

Thought, word, deeds must be free from pride, greed and hatred...

Hands are not the only limbs or agents 
that are involved in  human activity. 
 
Whatever is done, whatever is seen, 
whatever is heard, one should be vigilant about its purity. 
 
Thought, word and deed must be free 
from pride, greed and hatred. 
 
The words that one utters must be free from these faults. 
Things that one yearns to hear must be free from these superficially attractive qualities;
the pleasures that one seeks must not be polluted by evil. 
 
You must first assimilate these mental lessons and 
demonstrate their effect in your speech. You must translate 
this lesson taught by words into action.

God lives in the bliss of loving us, love HIM once... and we will live the bliss too...

The prayer that reflects Me, is bound to see the true image. 
Carry the loot of prayers back with you, when you re-enter 
the world so that the transformation within can recognize, 
at all times, its fake face, and slowly, My dears, 
the world will fade and only the prayer will remain.

I live in the bliss of loving you - love Me once, 
My dears, and you will live the bliss, too! 
Let the tears shed, and wash the impure stains; 
the stains of the tears, I will wipe. 

Let the cry be loud so that every evil voice that dwells, 
will shudder with your pain - the racking of the sobs,
I will silence with My presence - My presence, 
My child, is your first vision of love.


from a divine source..

Prayers must be intensive and loud from within, only to silence the world that lies outside...

Like the blind that are forced to awaken their senses 
of hearing and touch to feel their way around - you, too, 
must shut the outward senses and awaken the life within 
to feel the way to God

Prayers must be intensive and loud from within, 
only to silence the world that lies outside. 
Between you and Me, there is no curtain - 
do not shame yourself, any further, by attempting
to conceal the obvious to Me. 

Know that I have always known - you are in My past -
I am the present, and we are the future. Know, My child, 
that I am always with you - I have followed you in the past - 
I am leading you in the present and I will walk with you in the future. 

I behold you in My eye so that you can always see, 
I carry you in My heart so you can only live.
I am the eternal womb that will protect and nourish you, 
until you are ready to take birth.

from a divine source..

All prayers must be born out of love and not out of habit, competitiveness or compulsion.

I say leave your world behind, 
for when the prayer, itself, becomes worldly, 
your search for the world that lies beyond and above, 
will become futile. 

The prayer, My dears, must be born out 
of love and not out of habit, competitiveness or compulsion. 
The prayer must awaken the awareness of purity and 
goodness and, must invoke within, the fear of evil. 

Until you are the doer, I will be the witness - 
once you have witnessed Me, My child, I will, 
automatically, become the doer. 

One must bravely encounter the travel in a dark tunnel, 
before he is able to experience the light on the other side. 
Prayer, My child, is that tunnel that one must cross with
his faith and My promise. 

The one that manages to see his way through
this darkness, will reach the light. Stop fearing the unknown, 
instead, walk ahead and experience it - challenge it, 
My dears, by facing it and thereby, reveal its hushed secrets.

from a divine source...

A prayer seeks contentment, not by wishful wants but by the fulfillment of self sufficiency...

Leave the world behind, as you stand 
before the door that will magically transform you,
as you enter into the world of prayers. 

Even the world's beggar, My dears, 
will seek the king within, once he has 
experienced this wisdom. 

A prayer seeks contentment - 
not by wishful wants but by the fulfillment of self sufficiency. 

One experiences the dialogue 
between the imperfect being and the 
Master of perfection, in which, one questions, 
seeks, attempts, recognizes, and realizes; 
 while the other, responds, by simply manifesting 
as the truth to all the inquiring stages. 

The presence of the Lord, My dears, is in, 
itself, the response and success to your spiritual quest. 
All the pitiful doubts of the mind - every reservation that 
the ego holds and all the petty limitations of the intellect, 
will submerge and drown, once He has emerged before the spiritual eye.

If you install the Divine Name firmly in your heart, your life will become sanctified...

The power of Divine Name is unparalleled. 
People often take it lightly. That is a mistake. 
One should not mistake a diamond for a shining piece of glass. 

The real diamond is altogether different. 
What is that diamond? 'Die mind'. God's name is the real diamond. 
Keep it safe and secure. 

Do not ever be bothered by pain and suffering
losses and difficulties. They just come and go. 
That is not your real nature. 

Your innate Self is strong, eternal and rere. 

Once you seek refuge in the lotus feet of God, 
you should never give up. Wherever you al. 
You should not follow the fleeting and unreal, 
forsaking your own true and eternal natu
go, the Divine Feet will protect you. 

If you install the Divine Name firmly in your heart, 
your life will become sanctified.
