KEEP YOUR TREASURES INCREASING

Keep giving others and you'll find your treasures increasing. In your interactions with others during the day, check if you are expecting anything from others in any way. Your expectations could include physical help or understanding from others. Also check if you are able to give others without expecting. Tell yourself that to give means to take because when you give happiness or love you get the same. If you want to take, you'll only find yourself…

Sat-Chit-Ananda by Sri Chinmoy

Sat-Chit-Ananda is a triple consciousness. Sat is existence, Chit is consciousness and Ananda is bliss. You can separate them if you want to and, at the same time, you can take them as one. If one achieves Existence, then inside Existence he has Consciousness itself. And if one has Consciousness, then Bliss is there. It is like an apartment or plot of land. You can give the plot of land one name or, if you want to divide it, each part of…

SIGNIFICANCE OF IDOL WORSHIP

Many persons of non-Indian origin who are fascinated by the great philosophies found in Upanishads often wonder as to why in that land of such philosophical advancement, Idol worship considered inferior in philosophical maturity in worship exists! In fact even some Indians groomed in modern thought processes scorn such worship. While it is true that abstract meditation on the Formless, Attribute-less Divinity is best, is it possible for everyone? Even some persons with sufficient… Continue

RECOVERING YOUR SOUL

The soul is best understood not as a wispy ghost but as your true self, present in you at this moment. You don’t see it, although when you feel the impulse of love, you have contacted it. There can be no doubt that you have a self, therefore to step onto a new level, that of your true self, is not actually so…

Which is the right time for doing Yoga?

Can yoga be done in morning and evening also? Or we should do it on empty stomach?

Answer

1. Yes you can do yoga once in the morning and in the evening also. Although yoga does not seem as tiring as any other sport or exercise, it is always advisable to increase the time for yoga and number of repetitions gradually. Because when you start doing yoga you need proper rest for doing yoga next day so that your body is not stiff/… Continue

YOGA HEALTH BENEFITS THROUGH YOGA

Yoga health benefits can be explored only by adopting yoga as a way of life. Yoga was a system developed by ancient Indian Yogis for making the body fit and quieten the mind for the purpose of self awareness, spiritual realisation and salvation. These yogis had developed tremendous physical fitness and mental powers. Though yoga was not meant primarily to combat disease, in this modern life we are not so keen for salvation but regular practice of yoga can provide significant health…

Total Surrender by Sri Swami Satchidananda

God wants proof that you are totally surrendering yourself to Him. Tests will come. If you fail the tests, then your surrender is not complete. If your surrender is complete, no matter what test comes, you will pass it. Once you pass the tests, you don't have to worry about anything that happens in your life, because you are not responsible for your actions. Whatever comes, comes from God. Whatever goes is taken away by God.

It's not that easy in the beginning because the ego will… Continue

TRY TO DEVELOP GRATITUDE

Adapted from Healing Without Fear, by Laurel Ann Reinhardt (Inner Traditions, 2002).

Gregg Braden calls gratitude “the lost mode of prayer.” In many ancient and recent spiritual texts gratitude is considered to be one of the most powerful modes of prayer. It certainly helps to bring us back into the heart space.
