Gurudev Uvacha

25/04/ 2018 "Bhakti is the one essential thing. To be sure. God exists in all beings. Who, then, is a devotee? He whose mind dwells on God. But this is not possible as long as one has egotism and vanity. The water of God's grace cannot collect on the high mound of egotism. It runs down. I am a mere machine."

25/04/2018 'Woman has suffered for eons, and that has given her infinite patience and infinite perseverance. Women will work out their destinies much better, too, than men can ever do for them. All the mischief to women has come because men undertook to shape the destiny of women."

25/04/2018 "Satsangam is not mere company of the wise. The walls of the temple know no God, but a Mumukshu gains in spirituality every moment of his stay in his Guru's presence..He watches every action of his Guru, hears every word he utters and comes to know every thought he thinks, the development of the disciple depends upon his capacity to tune himself to his Guru. This tuning to the wise is Satsangam."

25/04/2018 "Lust, anger, greed, pride, hypocrisy, hatred, attachment, are the products of AVIDYA, that binds man to SAMSARA or the World. These should be overcome by steady effort. If you wish to attain the knowledge of the ATMA you will have to eradicate these evil traits which stand as stumbling blocks in the path of salvation. Return good for evil; conquer hatred by love and give life for death. Never speak ill of others. Also never hear ill of others. Never listen to one man blaming another in private."

25/04/2018 Feel the Divine! Be Humble!  "The awareness about the divinity in everything helps us to know the value of entire universe and its connectivity. This awareness makes us humble, imparting love and abundance in us. Humbleness of King Mahabali elevated him to Suthalam-the abode of ultimate happiness. Let this 7th day of Onam helps us to be more aware and more humble."  Hariom!

07/04/2018 "What is pleasure for you is pain for another man. What is pleasure for you now is pain after some time. The first two cups of milk give you pleasure. The third cup induces disgust, nausea, and retching. Milk does not give pleasure during fever. Therefore, pleasure is not in the objects, but in the imagination or inclination of the mind. Pleasure and pain, beauty and ugliness, are all false imaginations of the mind. Mind is a false, illusory product. Conceptions of the mind also must, therefore, be false. Pleasure and pain are in the mind only. It is subjective."

07/04/2018 'This self-cleansing becomes difficult for the average man, because it is a subjective process, wherein each has to cleanse himself.  Hence moral living, ethical standards, *religious *virtues and cultural *values are often discussed; many people talk about them, but very few come to live them."

07/04/2018 "A meditative mind always thinks positively. When one becomes positive, the energy level and capacity to focus on the present will be high. This enables one to do the activities with clarity and confidence. For such a person with positive approach and attitude success is natural, not an effort! Have a blessed day!
