CLARITY IS POWER
I want to surrender, but I want to intellectually satisfy myself before I surrender. People say that if you use your intelligence, then it is not surrender. How can you surrender without understanding what you are doing?
VOICE OF LOVE without a
questioning intelligence, materialistic progress is not possible. With a
questioning intelligence, spiritual progress is not possible. Use your intelligence to progress in
the without, but subordinate that very intelligence for progress in the within.
Arjuna too kept asking questions. However, though Arjuna’s questions were to
Krishna, he never questioned
A father and son had to cross the road. The traffic was heavy. The father stretched out his hand and asked his son to hold on to a finger. The father took two steps forward and the son too moved forward. Then he moved a little to the side, and so did the son. Then the father ran five steps forward, and the son ran along. The father was then forced to go back a few steps, and the son did so too. Finally, they crossed the road. In this entire process of crossing the road, the responsibility of making the right decisions was with the father. What was it to the son – just a game of surrender! He trusted the finger he was holding on to and everything else happened. He didn’t have to carry the burden of responsibility; instead, he enjoyed the freedom of surrender. If his intelligence had interfered with the intelligence of the hand that was leading him, crossing the road would have been a miserable process, not a peaceful one.
In face, the very essence of surrender is transference of responsibility. Surrender is to know – it is not my will, but thy will that will be done. Surrender is about finding that finger to which you subordinate your intelligence. I can understand your apprehension – How can I trust someone in a world of so many spiritual frauds?
Fortunately, surrender is not a decision. It is a happening. Keep the
seeker in you alive. Seek with all your heart. Let there be devotion in your
seeking. When you are ready, your teacher will appear. A Master-seeker
relationship is not a matter of judgment. It is a matter of chemistry. It is a
spontaneous reaction. You will lose yourself to that very presence. The drop of
water, in dropping into the ocean and merging with the ocean, loses its
individual identity, but becomes the ocean in the process. Surrender is the
subordination of Arjuna’s intelligence, so the
When you find that presence to which surrender can happen, a question on surrender, or a question on how to surrender will no longer arise in your mind. It will all happen. From then on, that presence will prevail in you, around you and will always be with you.
Those of you who have already experienced surrender don’t need this answer. For those who haven’t experienced surrender, this answer may not make much sense. After all, knowledge cannot create an experience. It can only validate an experience.
How do you deal with differences in a
relationship?
VOICE OF LOVE If you want peace in a relationship, you must understand that no other human being can ever be tailor-made to your expectations. In every relationship, there will be qualities in the other person that you will like and qualities that you won’t. Appreciate the qualities you like and accept the qualities you dislike. With these two navigators of appreciation and acceptance, great relationships can be built.

MIND
WARS
When you are called home, when you are somehow struck by the absolutely mysterious and irrevocable desire to know the truth of who you are, then you must be willing to put aside every story of separation. Every story of separation is a story of war.
Human beings have been making war in every culture for a very long time. Culture is a reflection of the individual mind, and the individual mind is a reflection of the cultural mind. Since you are reading this, I assume you are interested in peace in your own mind. You are not waiting for them to make peace. This is good news, because war is fought to get others to do it our way so that we can live in peace. When you stop waiting for them, and instead shift your attention to your own mind, then you can recognize the tendency toward war in your own mind, the tendencies of totalitarianism, hate, revenge, and holding on. And you can recognize the suffering that those tendencies continue to deliver.
Somehow, in the face of it all, you find you want peace. You are sick and tired of the war within your own mind. You may even express it in a conscious prayer, a plea for help, for understanding, for deliverance, for grace.
Grace is here now; it is knocking at your door. You have a chance to be at peace in this moment. You only need to accept the invitation of your own heart, right now, regardless of outer or inner circumstances, and let yourself sink into the peace of your innermost being.
Unless, all of us take the responsibility for our own inner peace, the wars will continue. We cannot wait for someone else to forgive us so that we can then forgive them. We cannot wait for someone else to say that are sorry. Peace cannot be postponed.
Recognize that to whatever degree the war is going on in your own mind, it is based on one thing; the firm belief that you are a separate entity, separate from your parents, your children, your lover, or your enemy.
All wars are based upon the ignorance of our true nature and the illusion of separation. When you firmly believe that, you are separate from the totality, separate from peace, separate from love, you protect yourself. That protection takes many forms involving personal and territorial identification. The horror is that if what you are protecting is the thought of who you are, it does not, in reality, even exist. It is only a thought, and whenever a thought is honestly investigated, it is found to have no inherent reality. Yet athis thought of who you are has immeasurable power, because it becomes the filter of all experiences of reality.
When you look through tinted glass, reality takes on that tint. It is not that reality is tinted. The tinted glass mediates and distorts reality. People fight for the distortion that this “I”, as an individual or as a group, is separate from all other beings. And yet that “I” is actually nothing! It is a made-up story. Yet in the belief that the story is reality, there is colossal tragedy and suffering. When this “I” that is assumed to be real and separate is examined by consciousness, it is discovered to be none other than consciousness itself.
As a conscious human being, you have the opportunity to discover that never, not even for an instant, is it possible to be separate from consciousness, from the source of everything, from God. Once you discover this directly, you then broadcast it with every breath you take. Whether you speak of this discovery or you never speak again, you will broadcast it through the natural radiance of your being. In your willingness to take that chance, to accept that invitation, you will naturally share that peace everywhere.
At this point in time, in this
theatre of consciousness, you have the opportunity to discover what is deeper
than ‘human being’, what is before human being. That “being-ness” is actually
the source of human being. It is the source of plant being, animal being,
sentient being, and insentient being. That being ness is alive with
intelligence, with presence, and it wants to know itself in you so that it can
know itself everywhere.

“WHEN WE CHOOSE THE SPIRITUAL LIFE, WE MUST
MAKE IT REAL AND VIBRANT”
O’ Master,
My search for something didn’t lead anything
When I adopt a practice of spirituality
I find solace & strength
Found more enthusiasm and productive
Lost nothing but gained everything
When we are imbued with the true spirit of consecration.
all our activities are turned into surrender. All tasks before us, small
and big, become of deep significance. When our heart is thus filled with
the consciousness of the ever-living and all-blissful Master, we no longer feel
the weary weight of life.
Spiritual practice is not a child-play, but a serious one. It is the practice of ‘life’ and not play. Once we get a reliable guide to give us real spiritual benefits through a vibrant practice, we must accomplish all the things through Him. The more we have the faith in Him, more is the advantage. We have to practice spirituality in all walks of our life.
Thought of the day:-
O, Master, help me to
consecrate my whole life to Thee.
May I find all my job in
Thy blessed Presence.
Help me to fasten my
heart to eternal Truth.
Fix my thought on
Thee alone.
May I never fail to
look up to Thee and seek thy holy guidance.
Fill me and surround
me with Thy Divine peace.
May Thy holy peace reign in my heart and life.

“WE MUST LEARN THE ART OF ALWAYS CARRYING
THE INNER LIGHT OF HOLINESS”
O’ Master,
This flame that burns in my heart was lighted by Thy
hand.
Thy servant keeps watch.
Though alone canst give him power to conquer sleep.
That his eyes may keep watchful vigil in the dark hours
of night,
Which so oft rob
our inward sight.
We feel the presence of the Great Spirit of the Universe in
silence. The silence is not so much external silence; it is the silence of our
inner being. As long as there is turbulence and rest within us, we can never
reflect the spirit of holiness. Never can we penetrate to the innermost
depth of our being. Only when there is a cessation of all unrest
within our heart, do we feel the divine presence and the rise of a new
sense of sanctity within us.
Internalization is the only process in spiritual practice through which we attain ‘Guru Tatwa’. The internalized Master, along with his ‘Guru Tatwa’, gives tremendous solace and courage inside us and we are prepared to do anything along the righteous path. Carrying the Divine Master within expands our ‘soul’ to the Universal level. When the soul is charged by the holiness of our Master, it illuminates itself and starts transmitting to the outside world.
Thoughts of the day:-

Spirit ! Shed thy radiance in my heart and mind;
Fill my

I remain

“WISDOM DOES NOT CONSIST IN GATHERING
INFORMATION. IT CONSISTS IN FINDING A CLEAR ACCESS TO THE 'HIGHEST'
O’ Master,
That which enshrouds our vision is
ignorance.
The way out of it is through wisdom.
Wisdom is that which keeps us from
blundering.
It is like carrying a light.
We can all unfold it.
It rests with us whether we will walk in
darkness or whether we will kindle the torch of wisdom in our mind and heart
and walk by its light.
It alone can show us the way to God.
Mere bookish knowledge cannot give us wisdom. Because wisdom descends automatically once we
attain the stage of purity. Many things
we hear from others, many things we see ourselves, but we do not know the truth
behind these things. Truth can be
realized only through a pure mind and not by any knowledge. After receiving wisdom from above, we become
wise in our activities and approach.
This wisdom only
makes us do the
righteous actions. Unless otherwise we
receive this Divine wisdom
either directly from the ‘Divine’ or from a ‘Divine
personality’,
practicing spirituality makes no purpose.
Rishis never read any book but they realized. Every Upanishad is the experience of a
Rishi. We have number of Upanishads to
read. Each has its own truth and
principles. Merely reading the
experience of others, we cannot achieve anything in our life. We have to experience Him through the latest
method of spiritual practice,
because way of
practice differs from ages to ages.
Thoughts of this Day:-
O Thou
Infinite Being, show me the way to Thee That I may gain access to Thy Presence
through my Mind. May I never turn my face away from Thee, My Master, And bathe in Thy
Light. May I never fail to see Thee. May I seek Thee always with steadfastness and

IT IS POSSIBLE TO HAVE TRUE VISION”

darkness of night,
A light burst upon
my soul,
Filling me with
serene gladness
All my inner
chambers
Are opened at its
touch;
All my inmost being
Is flooded by its
radiance.
Please do not close your door and
brood in the darkness. When harshness
and misery come, instead of going down under them, the awakened soul of the
Master in you becomes triumphant. We
live with a saintly character that way. When we meet with difficulties, we can
always derive blessings from the Master.
But how quickly we go down under the stress of life. Our sense of balance is increased or
decreased according to our feeling for spiritual truth. As long as we have an unbroken consciousness
of the Divine Presence of the Master, we shall feel secure and shall remain
steadfast.
With our daily transactions, we may
feel difficult to keep our mind always in divinity. But when we connect ourselves with a Divine
Master, we automatically get attached with divinity. No impressions are created, even if we are
busy with our day-to-day life. When our
mind gets detached from mundane transactions, we can keep ourselves involved in
divine thoughts, and one day, we can have real vision of truth.

“YOU OUTRAGE YOURSELF AND YOUR SPIRITUAL IDEAL WHEN YOU
HARBOUR ANY EVIL THOUGHT”
O’ Master,
Those of full of desires, for self gratification,
......... whose discrimination is stolen away by the love of power and
pleasure and who are thus deeply attached therein, [for such people] it is
possible to obtain either firm conviction in purpose or God consciousness.
(Bhagavat Gita)
Our state of mind opens or closes certain avenues for
us. In one state of mind, we get answers to our problems; we are
contended and happy. In certain states of mind, our thought is distracted
and we accomplish nothing. If we know how to operate, organize, and
govern the forces of life, we derive great benefits from them. We also
gain balance, poise, and efficiency.
If we want to live happily, we should have only positive
thoughts. Negative thoughts seldom give
happiness but give stress. Spiritual practice
is to gain positive thoughts and qualities so that we do not find any
hindrances in our life. If we mingle
with persons with negativity, we also tend to acquire the same qualities and
sometimes we will be away from spirituality.
Thoughts of the Day:-
O' Master, bestower
of peace,
Do though awaken my
spirit,
And fill my heart
with unbroken love,
Make me conscious of
of Thy divine presence,
That I may rise above
all the afflictions of the world of matter,

communion with Thee,
May I serve Thee with

“WHEN WE REACH THE
THRESHOLD OF GOD, OF TRUTH, THEN ALONE DO WE KNOW THE TRUE JOY"
O’ Master,
Love of the physical will pass
As all passing things, must follow their course:
But love of the spiritual will never vain or die.
Man is not satisfied: not even when he builds an empire. He
is always longing for something deeper, more complete. This we do not find in
the outer world. It is deep down in us. We never find any real
happiness or the real source of strength until we are able to go down within
our own soul. That is where we find God and Divinity. Our possessions,
our friends, fail us often: but God who abides within us and who knows our
heart He never fails us. True joy cannot trust on material condition: It
is found only Infinitude.
Probably we would have experienced various types of
enjoyments in our life. However, the ‘Divine bliss’, the superior enjoyment of
this Universe can be experienced only from Him and human beings cannot give
it. Once we enjoy this bliss condition,
we never try for any other enjoyments in our life. Unless otherwise we get a Master of caliber,
we cannot get this spiritual bliss full of joy.

Goal of my existence,

“IT MAKES US STRONGER, TO ENDURE”
O’ Master,
Brave heart, tired soul, remains awake awhile longer, awhile longer.
The hour of watching is almost over,
It will end,
And its end will bring thee gladness and rest.
We need to pass through times of darkness in order to learn
the value of spiritual consciousness. When our life becomes blinded by
despair, all our efforts seem unsuccessful; those are the moments when we need
to hold fast. When we have a thing, we do not realize the lack of
it. For instance when a person rolls in luxury, it is very difficult for
him to imagine the misery of poverty. Same is it when we have great
spiritual consciousness in us, we do not appreciate what misery, what
unhappiness, its absence can create in a soul.
Tolerance is one of the qualities of a spiritual practitioner. This tolerance only creates love and courage. Sometimes, waiting is a pleasure, especially for the beloved. Here in NC, we anticipate our Master to arrive to our Heart at any time. We are waiting. The moment My Master enters in us, our inner capacity increases with tremendous courage. The suffering of waiting will not be there once we internalize My Master. The present human consciousness starts changing gradually into Divine Consciousness and that becomes our nature.
Thoughts of the day:-
Supreme Master, Thou
knowest my innermost being,
Thou knowest my
strength and my weakness,
Rouse in my heart
such fortitude and firmness of faith.
That nothing can
throw me down or overwhelm me,
Help me to lift my
thoughts above the distractions of this world.
And fasten them to the stable and undying.

'ONLY WHEN THE TURBULENCES OF SELF CEASE, DO WE HAVE THE
PEACE AND TRANQUILITY WHICH ARE ABSOLUTELY NEEDFUL FOR SPIRITUAL VISION'
O’ Master,
The touch of Thy holy Hand is my sole adornment.
A glance from Thy smiling eyes hath poured upon me a
shower of countless blossoms.
Now I gather these scattered flowers day and night with
ecstatic joy,
For they bear the blessings of Thy Divine fragrance.
If we have the courage to give ourselves wholly to Truth,
what will happen? This question will not arise. They will be no
more questioning or calculating. We shall possess the most inspiring,
most sustaining vision; and Divinity will become a Reality to us. A new
vision is born from within. Our whole life is filled with it.
Suppose we lose our vision, instead of giving way to dejection, let us close
our eyes, and fix our gaze on something within. This will lend life to our
blindness and restore our spiritual sight.
We come to spirituality only to imbibe Divine Consciousness
and not for attaining material benefits.
Material desires never stop and one cannot even look back towards spirituality. Once we understand that material life itself
is not a life, we try to bend ourselves towards the Truth. If we are able to find our goal of Truth in
our Divine Master, it becomes very easy to attain it. Our unsettled life settles on its own, when
we surrender everything to our Master.
Turbulence cannot come again in our life.
Thoughts of the Day:-
O merciful one, bless me that I may never bar the stream of Thy
Love and wisdom in my heart.
May it flow freely and wash away
all petty selfish thoughts.

ADVANCED PERSONS, WE BECOME CHARGED BY THEM'
Thy immortal soul of sweet perfume,
Hath risen to the throne of thy Master,
Thou art no more separate from Him.
Thy humble heart hath taught me a holy secret , -
Yea, though hast given thine all!
When we do our work through higher inspiration, which comes
from
contact with the Master or Source, it has a special
freshness.
This inspiration comes with purity of heart. No one
has a monopoly of it. The true heart is the same everywhere. The
pure soul in its attitude and aspiration is always the same. There is no
difference in the great saints anywhere. Spiritual wisdom is always the
same and it never fails to fill the one who possesses it with higher power.
In the whole of humanity, finding spiritually advanced persons is little difficult; because
these persons never show their identity to others. By God’s grace, if we are able to get such a
person, we must make association with Him immediately. When we fly in our material world, we may
tend to forget God. When once we connect to a Divine personality and accept Him
as our Master, remembrance of God does not arise. The Master takes care of it. If we find Him, in this life itself, we have
to surrender everything to Him irrespective of our position. Then only He can take charge of us in our
spiritual as well as material life.
Thoughts of this day.
O Thou who are my Resting-place and
Shelter,

'MOTIVE IS THE GREATEST FACTOR IN ALL
ACTION'
O’ Master,
One who knows attachment is gone, who is liberated, whose
mind is well-established in wisdom, who works for sacrifice alone, his whole
Karma (Samskaras) melts away ................. Thus by performing actions with
the consciousness of the Supreme,
he reaches the Supreme alone.
It is the natural thing that when there is any vacancy,
Mother Nature fills it. It is filled with that for which we open the
channel. If we form the habit of holding wholesome, beneficial, up-building
thought, it will act like magic in our life. There is great harm done by
discordant thoughts but there is no harm when we cannot get remedy immediately,
though we are in Divine thoughts.
Because divinity works slowly.
These divine thoughts are the results of a spiritual practice under a
Divine personality. When we allow Him to
clean us inwardly, the thought becomes inward and it
has such power that
it can transform our life and other lives.
All our attachments start giving trouble one day or other. The more we are attached to our material life, we face trouble, and sometimes it leads to confusion. Here in NC, we are requested to surrender everything to the Divine Master as his belongings, and we have to presume that we are only the users. If we have succeeded in this process, rest of our life is in the hands of our Master and we need not worry about it. Everything happens when it has to happen and in the right way. Faith in Him creates a lot of courage and patience to face our life. If we do all the actions with the remembrance of our Master, actions do not get reactions and we can save ourselves from future births.

The blessing of Thy Presence will lift our
weight,
And our soul will sing again with new joy
our thanksgiving.
Come, O come to us in this hour of need!
We all have setbacks, but this falling down does not mean
defeat. Thousands of times, we may fall down, yet we must rise up again. We need courage and poise to do this. He who is not afflicted by the dual
conditions of life lives truly. Some
people glorify their pain and adversity.
If it is crucifixion, that crucifixion becomes a symbol of their
religion and they bear it gloriously.
This is not sentimentality; it is true courage.
All of us have pain in one way or the other. Once we practice to accept the pain, we become
spiritual persons. Spirituality teaches
not to give pain to others and bear the pain given by others. For this a tremendous perseverance and
courage is required. This condition
cannot come automatically by glorifying our pain. When we are connected to a Divine
Personality, He gives courage to undergo everything in our life. We will not bother about anything and we keep
ourselves busy in divine thoughts.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ Master, victory and defeat, elation
and depression, good fortune and ill, all these things come and go;
But Thou art ever unchanging

Life of my life, art not in my dwelling.
I pray unto Thee with all the powers Thou

As we learn the art of up-building, our heart blends with
the Divine heart. We cannot have
happiness or give happiness, until we have learned to blend our heart with the
Heart of our Master. We must have a
sense of kinship, more than that, a sense of true relationship with the Supreme
Master. There is no use for us to have
spirituality, unless it becomes dominant in our life. A man must stand up and show that he has an
Ideal and that he is loyal to it.
If man is more conscious about him and not Him, he cannot
reach into spirituality. If he is not
able to reach spirituality, what is the use of his life? Divinity is only for
spiritual person and not for others. This
Divinity has to come from inside. We
have to dwell within to reach this Divinity.
We require a capable Master to help us in this regard. If we have succeeded in getting into the
divine heart of the Master, it becomes easy to reach inside. Happiness automatically comes, once we
surrender everything to Him.

If we are in tune, if we are fortified, we can go through

action becomes positive and will not have any reaction.

"SPIRITUAL QUALITIES
EVIL QUALITIES
O’ Master
In the great symphony of life,
Where all is
melody and music, save the voice of ego,
Sing,
my soul, in harmony!
Those who have pure thoughts, noble ideals, and loving
characters exert strong influence on others. Whenever we want to have a
lasting effect on any character, we must not expect to do it too quickly or too
easily. If it is done too quickly, it will not last. It is like a
hay-fire. You set hay on fire and it makes a tremendous blaze, but in a moment,
it is over; while a long fire is slow to catch, but it lasts a long
time. The real spiritual life is manifested when there is no element of
fire, no ulterior motive, no bargaining. When we pray,
we must not ask God
to give us something in return. Our prayer must spring
from a spontaneous need to commune with ‘That’.
When you develop spiritual qualities in you, others start observing you and get attracted towards it. Every human being can experience these qualities, if they desire for it. These infectious spiritual qualities should spread all over the universe for the sake of peace and courage to counter their day-to-day problems. Beware of negative qualities and negative persons; they may spoil you your spiritual life. Once we connect with our Master, we forget our evil thoughts and qualities and become positive always.
Thoughts of the day:-
May I feel the protection of all-abiding Spirit (My
Master) within me
May He so inspire my heart that I shall consecrate
all my thoughts and efforts to his service.
May my love for Him be so sincere and spontaneous that
others
will feel it and
gain new strength and inspiration from it.

''THE WORLD IS IN NEED OF THE HEALING BALM
THAT HOLINESS BRINGS.''
O’ My Master,
My touch will kindle hope in thy heart.
I shall reside in thy soul as Peace.
My love will fill thee with bliss.
Fear not, but walk forward with faith.
My hand is thy safety.
A man may not profess any faith, yet he may be the
embodiment of all faith. Holiness comes from the practice of spirituality. We
must live in such a way that we may convey the living quality of spirituality
to the heart of the world. There is one way to reach the hearts of men
and that is first by reaching our own depths. We must be willing to die
for our Ideal or to live for it without a whimper, whatever may happen.
We need holy men to
heal the world.
Holiness is the creation from purity. Purity of mind can help others to create purity. Positive qualities and fearlessness are required to heal the world. Our endeavor in creating holy men should succeed. NC makes an effort to train young people through spirituality and make them as saintly engineers, saintly doctors, saintly govt. officers etc. This trial of producing such personalities can definitely heal the world beyond any doubt.
Thoughts of the day:-
I lift my heart and thought to the Supreme Master, All loving,
All-seeing One.
He alone
can grant my prayers.
He alone can quicken my spirit and give up spiritual
understanding.
May He rouse in my soul true yearning for such understanding.
And bestow on me His ever-living, ever-abiding protection and
blessing.

“EVEN A
Though hast placed me on this other shore where virtue
and wise, sin and merit,
praise and censure, all are one; where light and dark,
life and death
are commingled in eternal uni . I stand on this strange
shore and look upon
the swift-following current of life with amazed
wonderment.
Here the faith is the dependence. Though we spend our
life without this, at one stage you feel that you require it. It is only when
there is lack of light that we see things in wrong way. How like a little
cloud’s worldly grandeur is blown away. Man can never be self-sufficing.
But when he learns a higher dependence, there is no more anguish of mine, no
more rebellion. To be able to see our connection with every condition of
life is to see with a new eye---the spiritual eye. Patience, endurance,
courage - these come when that eye opens. Then we can turn all our forces
Godward or inward. For one who sees with the spiritual eye, there are no
evil forces; we create evil by the misdirection of our energies
Blind faith is always dangerous. Faith should come after experience. For experience, we should have dependence. This dependency with some reliable personality can only give experience and further, the experience takes us to faith. Faith after experience is permanent and steady. This faith improves a lot of confidence in our life. NC practice never demands faith. However, if we practice sincerely and devotedly with the help of our Master, we definitely reach into a condition of faith. Then we can say ‘faith moves mountain’, and not before.

'THE BEST LANGUAGE IS THE LANGUAGE OF THE HEART'
O’ Master,
What I feel now I cannot say;
The words are not yet made for its utterance,
Speech is power to speak of That which hath given it
power to speak.
Thus it is, friend, so oft I keep silent when thou wouldst have me speak.
We may theorize and sermonize about many things, but this
does not satisfy us. The practical part of spirituality and religion lies in
loving, silent service. Service opens a new chapter in our life. It is a
fundamental thing, not something indefinite. Service is the living expression
of our thought and feeling. If they are right, we shall
never desire to enjoy any blessing apart from our
fellow-men.
Every heart speaks on its own. This whispering of the heart can be heard only in silence. Unless otherwise we practice silence in mind, we cannot understand what our heart says. Once we bring our Master into our mind, we find calmness and quietude. Achieving blankness of mind is the beginning for a spiritual practitioner. Blankness can invite Divinity and the Divinity can speak to us through Divine thoughts. Divine thoughts give only peace and tranquility in our life.
Thoughts of the day:-
O" my
Master, open my heart to Thy all embracing love,

'WE CANNOT BE HAPPY WITHOUT CASTING THAT
RADIANCE INTO THE WORLD'
The blessing of Thy smile hath filled my soul with
radiant joy.
When I am in Thy Presence, my heart is always light and
My feet do not touch the ground.
Verily, Thou hast transported me to a sorrow- less land!
It is good to have at least one person in every household
who radiates joy through his spiritual expansion. Often a light is kept
burning before the shrine; so in the soul must we keep burning the light of
understanding the Master. Then no evil can touch us. Vision does
not come to one whose heart is soiled by the world and heated by the fever of
life. A person cannot convey constructive thought who is not in tune with
the Nature; but when his heart is in perfect tune, he benefits and comforts the
whole world.
His life is like a radiant light shedding brightness.
Actually, it is the duty of everyone to radiate Joy and
love to everybody in this Universe. Because of the impurities inside,
human beings are unable to radiate this to others. Once we spiritualize
ourselves with the wisdom of purity and heart with the help of our Master, we can also radiate wonderful light of love and joy to
all surrounding us. Real happiness is finding joy in others’
faces. NC practice itself is originated
keeping this in mind. Unless otherwise
we give happiness to others, there is no value in living a life in this
universe.
Thoughts of the day:-
O Master, make my
life a blessing to all Thy children
May I never bring
darkness or heaviness to any heart;
But may I shed the
radiance of true joy and love
on all who cross my path.
Grant that I feel the
bliss of Thy Presence within my heart.
And may Thy Presence
protect me from all gloom and sadness.

That no mortal light
Can reveal Thy immortal Face;
Thou art seen only in Thine own effulgence,
Yet with yearning hope in my heart,
I keep my little altar lamp
Day and night, burning-burning!
It is a sacrilege to believe that we have no part in God's
life. The power of God is within us and all around us. Unbroken and
undivided Oneness pervades the universe.
We all partake of
it. As long as the realm of Divinity remains distant from us,
we can have no access to it and true knowledge will not
come. It must be
brought close through
sincere yearning and living the life.
Experiencing the God's energy in all the creations is a
wonderful one.
God is not alone in
his status but available in all his creations.
No one can escape from Him and his energy. When you get Divine perception through a right spiritual practice, your application of mind changes and you rely upon His energy. Experiencing God’s energy everywhere in this Universe is a wonderful experience. A true spiritual practitioner with the help of his ‘Guide’ can reach this condition.

"COMMUNE WITH THY SPIRIT IN
SILENCE"
O’ Master,
It is not death that robs our life,
Not is it the dark of night that bars our inward sight;
Nay, it is the Veil of Unknowing.
We cannot live on borrowed knowledge. Borrowed
knowledge is fluctuating and shifting. We must make it our own, based on
our own experience. Whenever we have to go elsewhere to learn about
something, it does not belong to us. That is true knowledge which
accompanies us. It is like carrying a light. That one light makes
all things plain. This is what we call wisdom.
Experience through silence is the greatest among all
experiences. Silence is emptying our mind from earlier knowledge and
start afresh to have clear and understandable experiences. Silence is the beginning of everything and
end. Can we think of living without
silence? Life starts with silence inside
the womb and life ends with silence at the Necropolis.
Thoughts of the day:-
O Master, Thou the source of all
knowledge,
May I learn to know Thee as Thou art in
Truth,

Thy spirit,
May my mind be uplifted and my heart

I taste sweet ecstasy of bliss,
O' Master, the Light of my soul,
This body is only its shade.
When we plant a seed it has no apparent sign of life, but
we know it contains
the germ of life.
We care for it, we water it, then it sprouts; very soon, we see
a little plant and hopefulness comes. We are able
to care for it more because
we see a sign of life. Same is it with our
life. A very small understanding
may be there, a small capacity for feeling; but if we
foster these, we
strengthen them and through our aspiration, they become larger every day.
Constant remembrance is the ideal condition to nourish our pure thoughts and deeds. We should realize one day, the power and love of my Master through our heart. Our moral values and strength should be established through his divine presence. Growing together with love and truth takes everybody to the Ultimate. Let us think of introducing love to this world through our ‘My Master’ within.

Do you suppose you can lose your self-will through

Oh! Awake brother, linger thou no more,
Come and see this newness and freshness of Love life and joy
Enjoy yourself with the help of Love and service
Do it now and forget not.
A truly happy life is one, which
radiates happiness, and gives happiness to others. Let us make ourselves open
channels to receive and transmit Love and
May we not only receive it, but
also let us make ourselves capable to retain it, so that we may give it to
others. Love gives tremendous energy always.
Let us power out ourselves in love
and service. What comes of it, let us leave that to Master. Love Him who loves all and gain the benefits.
Every time we think of our own
self, it brings in sorrow in one form or the other. We attribute our
unhappiness to other things, but its cause lies in self-seeking.
We can create a boundary between
ourselves, and such selfish thoughts, through self-less devotion, and
consecrated service. Through that boundary of self-less-ness, nothing can
penetrate. Start service with love and end with love. During the service,
do not forget love. Service without love is useless. Love without service may
be helpful. The duty of Human beings
does not end with love, but continues with service.
Thoughts of the day:-
Oh! All loving Master, remove all my selfishness
and egoism from my heart,
That I may be able to love and serve you truly.
May I realize your presence within and without.

The shower of your blessing
Fell on this parched ground,
Which was barren as a desert.
At first, I did not believe,
That Thou could soften it,
But your miracle hath changed,
This waste to a flower land.
If we only learn to have a steadfast hold on the Supreme
Master, all our outer actions can be easily regulated and sanctified and these
will be made a part of the inner consciousness. True practitioners hold fast to
Divinity and because of that, they are always able to maintain their
balance. They feel secured, no matter
how many times they are whirled round and round by the outer circumstances of life. We learn this secret through the practice of spirituality
under a reliable and efficient guide.
Until we become dependent of Truth of Divine Master, we
cannot be safe from births & deaths.
All these happen because of our own ‘samskaras’ and unless we try to get
rid of these unwanted energy in our life, we cannot escape from our
dilemma. Our Master gives everything to
us once we surrender ourselves to Him.

When thy mind is filled with noble

There is no room for small, petty, and
selfish whims.
Keep thy heart then well-filled with
feelings that
are
noble and true,then work with thy hand;
For no act can enslave us when our heart
and mind are true.
There is a finer type of spiritual manhood. If you can
manifest that, you will always glorify whatever you do. But to do this, you must be genuine and you
must look beyond yourself. You cannot
live this life worthily unless you relate it with what lies behind this life. If you would enter into a more exalted realm
of being, you must have patience, faith, perseverance and courage. Without these, you cannot partake
of the Spirit of your
Divine Master and get His blessings.
Under the shelter of spiritual training, we are not
supposed to do any thing that we like, unrightfully and unlawfully, which is
against our spiritual progress.
Spiritual training is for the sake of developing confidence and
truthfulness at all times in your life. A Spiritual person never pretend
because he does not know to dramatize things against Truth. Practical spirituality means practical living
in this universe along with righteousness.

One feels suffocated within the boundary line of dogmatic religion. We must avoid fanaticism. A fanatic never has

be found in those who have realized most.
A man has nothing to give until he has learned to shut the door and
commune with his own inner Master.
Realization of truth means realizing good and positive qualities.
We should feel as our moral duty to create communion with
our Divine Master always. Our spiritual
practice should gain the condition of this communion without any struggle and
hardships. God is very simple and to reach him also should be a simple
approach.
Once we internalize the Master, we forget our own negative

Adorn

Anoint
thy heart with selfless love;
Thus
do thou enter the shrine with soft and gentle tread.
The mind must be emptied before it can be filled. In this way we free ourselves from our cares
and worries and troubles. We go round
and round our problems, but it is not through calculation that they can be
solved. The only way we can be rid of
them is to drop them like a dead weight.
If we form the habit of gazing on something that is pure Light, doubt,
misery or despondency may come, but the Light will never fail us.
Light here is the Master.
It is a very common difficulty for almost all new aspirants to accept
the Master immediately. However, the
Master works on them without their knowledge, once they are introduced to this
NC system. The emptying process is to
invite the Master to your heart to work the way he wants. When he arrives in you, your problems get
gradually solved without your application of mind.

We must form the habit of spiritual consciousness. We must learn to look up to something
higher. If we do this we minimize our
sadness, our miseries and fears. In an
ordinary person, the opposite forces, good, evil, pleasure and pain, are
constantly preying on his mind; but this need not be. When we establish rhythm with our Master, we
have our fixed level and we are not preyed upon by the ego. We maintain our balance.
Knowingly nobody brings the ego. When circumstances are favorable, ego
suddenly starts raising its head. But
when you divinize your mind with the purity of your Master, this ego does not
disturb you nor it shows its dirty behaviour.

Direct, simple, child-like method is the best. All great characters have exhibited

It is a fact that the Master always wants to enter into your

It is a motherly love that your Master wants to show

always leads to a bigger Ideal. It is
reached through simplicity and spiritual devotion.
We must expand our heart to think big. When we realize that our Master is the Big
and Biggest, our little mind fills up with courage and confidence. Expanding our hearts to the extent of
reaching the Master’s heart must be our goal in spiritual life. Though we may be small or we would like to
remain small only always, my Master should become Big and Bigger in our hearts

We are primarily of Spirit.
Our real essence is in the Divine.
To forget that becomes our greatest failure. Even mistakes are not evil. We learn through mistakes as much as through
good deeds. It is not a misfortune to
blunder, but it becomes a misfortune when a person broods over his
blunder. When we live the life, we get
rid of all brooding and despondency. It
is when our heart is filled with ambition that we fell defeat and failure. We remain unmoved and undisturbed when it is
wholly filled with the Ideal.
Sometimes we feel that we could not remember ‘My Master’ in spite of our problems and stress in the work. It is the failure of the practitioner when he forgets Him at the time of his distress and strain. It is He, He only to protect us from all the troubles. We should not commit a failure of forgetting Him when we are in really in need of His presence.

through difficulties and dangers with undaunted courage,
Andy may
Ii never lose the sense of Thy tender care and loving protection,
May I
not commit another failure.

“WE DO OUR BEST WHEN WE ARE LEAST CONSCIOUS
OF OURSELVES.”
O’ Master,
Ah, the quiet, blessed hour,-
The hour of union and fulfillment,
The hour of joy complete!
Let
me forget my nature consciousnesses
And bring Thy ‘Nature Consciousness’
Every time you forget yourself, you are renewed and
rested. It is done sometimes through higher understanding or it may be done
through devotion to an Ideal? What will
become of a man when he gives up self? Renunciation of self-what does it mean?
Renunciation in every form is very sacred.
It is the motive that determines its value. When you limit yourself to selfish vision,
everything becomes distorted and your balance is destroyed. You must give your whole life freely, if you
would have true, undistracted power of action. Renunciation is the real
negation of oneself to bring Him.
When your ‘My Master’ is functioning in you properly, you
tend to forget yourself. Remembering Him
and forgetting yourself is the prime practice in spirituality. When ‘My Master’ takes over your responsibilities,
remembering yourself has no value. Make
‘My Master’ to perform everything and enjoy your life.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ My Master, the
Eternal Light of the Universe,
Thou art the source
of my life, my inspiration and my joy,
May my gazes ever
remain fixed on Thee;
May it never turn
back upon myself,
Help me to keep my
spiritual fire burning;
May I never let it
grow dim or be extinguished,
May I devote my whole
heart to Thy service,
And find my strength
ever in Thee.
Yours lovingly,

“WE CAN ONLY RECEIVE IN EXACT PROPORTION AS
WE GIVE. IF WE GIVE WHOLLY, WE RECEIVE
THE WHOLE.”
O’ Master,
O told them of Thy song, but they heard it
not, for their own voices were loud;
They laughed and mocked me,
I sat alone with streaming eyes, yet these
drops were not from sadness;
They were through fullness that Thou,
merciful One, hadst given me hearing for Thy precious song.
Make me tune for thy song and rest in my
heart for long.
Life and lack of life, light and lack of light-theses are
the two phases of life. There are people
who are so glowing that they radiate light and life everywhere. Then again we find a person in whom the light
is almost extinct. Our task is to rescue
all those who are in darkness by increasing the power of their waning flame and
making it strong and steady. How can we
be harsh how can we turn a deaf ear, when Truth stands out everywhere so
clearly and shows us that we are in no way separate from any living being.
The song of the Divine Light transmitted from ‘My Master’
is not received by someone do not care for their own evolution. Love, the song of other spirit can be enjoyed
by everyone irrespective of their position.
Here, the song does not have any tune or sound but a feeling of LOVE.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ Thou who art the Master of all,
Grant unto me the power to spread Thy
blessing among all the children of men,
Make me a channel of ever higher and
higher service,
Help me to give freely and without
stint,
Knowing Thou art and inexhaustible
store-house of love and power.
Yours lovingly,

Golden Message No.39
“WE ARE SUCH COWARDS AT
TIMES, WE ARE AFRAID TO GIVE”
O” Master,
Can we with all our might, offer Thee aught
worthy in thy blessed sight?]
Can we ever make our heart so free of
earthly stain that thy light of love may shine and glow unceasingly?
Our life can belike a lamp-post; travelers pass and find
their path revealed. Let us become like
such a lamp-post, that we may throw a glow not only on our own path but on the
paths of all God’s children. We cannot help
giving; we are constantly giving something. Whoever touches our life, whomsoever
we touch, we give something to that person unconsciously. The influence we exert depends upon our inner
life and our power of vision. If our
Ideal is uppermost in our life, we shall always exert a noble influence. If our own higher consciousness is dormant,
we shall be
unable to appeal to the higher in others.
Don’t you think that you require courage to give something?
Yes it requires a lot of courage when you want to give unpolluted love to
others. This love does not have any
expectations. It can give and give
only. First acquire the courage; then
give love. Your activation of ‘God
inside’ can give only Divine Love. And this Divine Love does not demand
anything from anybody. Here NO GIVE & TAKE; ‘ONLY GIVE’.
Love cannot reject Love, but receives.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ My Master, the Effulgent One, may I never enjoy
anything apart
from The Divine Light,
May that light shine through my every thought and action,
May thy love flow through me,
And unite me with all Thy children,
May I share gladly what Thou givest unto me,
Yours lovingly,

‘POISE DOES NOT COME
ACCIDENTALLY; IT SPRINGS FROM INTUTION AND SELF-CONQUEST.”
O’ Master,
For this madness of mine, I can find no
cure;
There is no help save when thou art near…..
Now at last thou art come, I am well, -
yes, my spirit is still!
My body mind and sense all sing in perfect
unison the joy of Thy coming.
The forgotten Love takes its strength
again!
When mind becomes established in quietude, then all sorrows
cease. All our forces should be so in
tune that there is no room for things to happen by accident. In reality there is no such thing as
accident. Whatever happens is the result
of a previous stage of mind. Mind is not
meant to rest in outer influences. In
order to get out of gloom or disturbance must have a point of contact that is different. The mind must be interested in a higher
point, where everything is living and vibrant.
Live your mind to your Master, and enjoy the vibrancy of
Love and truth. When you make your
Master to work in you, there cannot be any accident but seems to be accidents.
It really happens, and you become the observer.
Allow the things to happen, let it be an accident or incident.
Thoughts of the day:-
May the Supreme Master grant me power to keep an even
tenor in all the happenings of my daily life.
May I live in unbroken contact with His Divine
storehouse,
And draw all my strength and inspiration from Him alone,
Yours lovingly,

Golden Message No.41
“NEVER LET YOUR HEART
BECOME RUFFLED BY PAIN OR PLEASURE JOY OR DESPENDENCY.”
O’ Master,
Our life hath both its summer and its
winter, with their heat and cold,
The great Creator knoweth our need.
And giveth unto us season of cold and the
summer of heat,
Life is full of ups, downs and planes,
Likes, dislikes and unlikely events,
I must travel along with you in these
times,
And I do not bother for these.
A person does not begin to do his best until body is focused
and unified. But body cannot be focused
without the mind being focused. It is not by thinking on the body you control
your body, it is rather by thinking on higher things and relating them to
body. Body and mind are both unified by
this means and you gain poise. When
shall you practice poise? Always. When you are in the crowd and when
alone. You must maintain a sense of
sanctity and serenity at all times.
Mind is a whirlpool which rotates all the times with various
thoughts. Once you achieve stillness of mind, you can be away from all the body
feelings and mental disturbances. Mind
should be purified to support the body in its work forgetting the pain. Mind also should support your brain to work
and think in the right way. Spiritual
practice through a caliber Master brings your mind a condition to support your
body and brain, so that you can lead a wonderful life. And mind it; this life is not only for you
but also for others.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ Master, the infinite Spirit, quiet the turbulence of
my outer and inner life.,
Grant me quietude of heart and mind,
Help me to silence the voice of the world,
And to maintain calmness and tranquility in all the varying
condition of the day,
May thy peace fill my being,
And make me open to thy blessing.
Yours lovingly,

‘TRY TO GAIN A SENSE OF
TRUE MANHOOD.”
O” Master,
I live in this house of yours feel as mine,
Whose walls are not built by man,
None can invade my dwelling other than
Thee,
None can usurp my rights without Thy
knowledge.
Although we are virtually constituted alike, we manifest
different qualities. People are in
different grades. Some are dense, gross;
others are equipped fineness of vision, fineness of feeling, fineness of
thought. It is because some yield to
their lower nature, others constantly strive to manifest their higher qualities
or Higher Nature. The choice rests with
us. The individual becomes vital by his own effort. We must climb higher and radiate higher
qualities in our life. To do this
requires faith and courage.
By nature, man differs from one to other. OK.
But one quality is hidden inside this special species. That is Love.
Though we are different in various levels like physical, financial, educational
and positional levels, we must be equal in our mental levels. Bring spirituality to you to balance your
mental levels.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ Master, the Infinite & Indivisible Being,
Thou art the eternal in this fleeting,
Thou art the abiding in the midst of the changing,
Teach me to cling to that, which is stable and lasting,
May I draw all my inspiration and strength from Thee
alone.
Fill my mind with noble exalted thoughts,
Guard me from all that is ignoble and weak,
And keep me ever in thy peace.
Yours lovingly,

“LIFE IS CONSTANTLY
RADIATING THAT WHICH HAS EITHER GOOD OR EVIL INFLUENCE.”
O’ Master,
Sun, Thou coveted light of the world,
The grey sky tried to hide Thee;
That she might enjoy Thee alone,
In her blind, selfish greed,
But Thou, universal Lover and Light-giver,
Tearing off her veil of mist,
Came forth to gladden our hearts
When we have really found something deeper, spontaneously we
try to live it. When Truth is lived in
our life, it inevitably reaches other lives.
Whoever comes near us, whatever life we touch, we give something
spiritual. We give our atmosphere which
we create through our attitude or mind and our physical habits. Whatever we have, that we share
constantly. Our good and bad moods
affect the whole of humanity. We are
inseparable parts of one great Life and can possess or hold nothing apart from
it.
Our godown of Love never gets emptied, because it belongs to
Him. We have something with us to give to others which never get
exhausted. Like the Sun, we must radiate
always this something to everyone, whoever comes in front of me. Spirituality helps us through a magnificent
leader to radiate this divine quality.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ Master, the All Pervading Presence,
Fill my life with Thy radiance,
That it may shine forth and brighten the lives of others,
Grant that I may never harm or wound any of Thy children,
Or turn them away from Thee.
Yours lovingly,

‘BE LIKE A ROCK,
UNSHAKABLE.”
O’Master,
Hold fast to the end,
Goal can ne’er be far,
If thy heart clings to ‘THAT’ with Love,
With love hold fast to the end.
Discipline should not throw you down. When you take up spiritual life without any
ulterior motive, not seeking case or comfort, you seek tests and difficulties
to prove your strength and endurance.
You do not shrink from trial.
Never pray to minimize your burden, but that you may be given wisdom to
meet it. There are moments when we feel
thwarted and when our spiritual vision seems blocked. These are the moments of greatest growth.
Look at a rock, how strong it is. It never bothers about the
heat, cold, rain and wind.
It undergoes every outside pressure. Rocklike man does not mean he does not have
any positive qualities. He has become
rock because of positive thinking and attitudes. He cannot deviate from basic quality of his
strength and courage. With this courage,
we must try to give Love to everybody.
Love requires strength for radiating to others.
Thoughts of the day;-
O’ Master, the All-beneficent Spirit,
Make me firm and undaunted in my spiritual life,
May my mind rise above the ever-changing objects of this
world,
And be fixed always on Thee,
May my heart be unfaltering.
May it never turn away from Thee,
Make me strong in Thy strength,
May I never fall back or waver in my devotion to Thee.
Yours lovingly,

“SPIRITUAL FRGRANCE IS NOT
LIMITIED BY ANY BOUNDARY LINE, IT REACHES ALL HEARTS THAT ARE YEARNING FOR THE
HIGHEST”
O’ Master,
“Love, hope & joy”
These three flowers of fruitful life
Scatter their precious perfume with wings
of angels.
Their unseen power transforms world’s ugliness
to beatific vision,
Storms of anger to gentle peace,
And brute passion to Divine affection.
The only way we surmount the evils and limitations of the
world is through the realization of love.
When we know we are all children of one Divine Being, we naturally
become united. This is something we do
not realize through theory. We find the
centre of this realization in our own heart.
When we have found it there, we realize it in the universe. But if we do not realize it in our heart
through humility and devotion, we may seek it everywhere in the world but e
shall find it nowhere.
Spiritual practice is for enlightenment. Fragrance of an enlightened soul spreads
everywhere he goes. This fragrance of
light takes away darkness from the people who always surround him. It also penetrates into the hearts of his
loving people.
This limitless expansion of the light of fragrance can be
given to anyone whoever craves for it and give spiritual benefits and mental
transformation.
Thoughts of the day:-
May my Master, the infinite Being in this hour of prayer,
Direct my whole thought and feeling to Him.
May I never cease to be conscious of the sweetness of His
Divine Presence,
And may I convey that sweetness to others.
Yours lovingly,
SSB

“YOUR FAITH MUST BE FERVENT
AND LIVING”
O” Master,
We believe that Thou dost open our eyes of
understanding,
And place us in Thy kingdom of safety,
Where conflict of doubting life hath no
entry,
We believe for this and this alone.
Your faith must be like an altar flame, burning every
moment. Not only will it bring blessing
to you, but it will bless others. There
must be no doubt, no question, and no hesitation. The worst enemy in our life, in all human
life, is doubt. We can overcome it by
the light of understanding.
Spiritual practice with faith gives tremendous results,
faith in the Master and system. Doubts should cleared immediately by spiritual
practitioners. Doubts create blocks in
upward journey. Simple faith in the Master helps the practitioner to go high in
spiritual life. Faith relieves from
tension and worries about the future.
The faith confirms your safety in the hands of your Master.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ Master, Thou art the unfailing
Source of my sustenance,
Thou art the Source of all my power
and strength,
Light in my heart a burning faith,
That all my doubts and questioning may
be burned to ashes.
May I depend upon Thee at all times,
And find my rest and peace in Thee
alone.

“TO MAINTAIN OUR
EQUILIBRIUM IS THE GREATEST PRACTICAL WISDOM.”
O’ Master,
Covet not pleasure,
Shrink not from pain,
Stand firm on the balancing rod of life
He who seeketh pleasure can never escape
pain:
For they are coupled, - the inseparable
twins,
Let thy soul live in tranquil harmony
Amid pleasure and amid pain
When dwell in the body we are easily agitated. The balance is easily destroyed. But when we dwell in Spirit we maintain our
poise. The small-minded man is easily
disturbed, but the big man keeps his balance under all circumstances. When we are willing to live or die for our
Ideal, we remain calm and poised in all the varying conditions of life.
Emotional imbalances are common as far as a common is
concerned. These emotions come from his
“I” and the behaviour during this time is because of his ‘samskaras’. Divine
wisdom means the truth enlightened by a spiritual practitioner to read the
circumstances and the cause behind it.
When you analyze the truth behind every incident, you can control
yourself in your emotions. If anyone
acquires mental purity, his wisdom corrects and directs him in these
situations.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ Master, Thou Who art changeless and
abiding,
Grant to me such trust in Thee that I
may cross over all difficulties and trials,
And find absolute peace and quietude,
Help me to shake off all fear and
anxiety,
And rest in the consciousness of Thy
protecting Presence.

“KNOWLEDGE OF ‘GOD’
DESTROYS ANGUISH, IT DESTROYS DOUBT, IT DESTROYS WEAKNESS.”
O’ Master,
When Thou art with me I feel lack of
nothing,
Love, joy, wisdom and strength,
Faith and prayer, surge in my soul,
All will I forsake to have Thee as mine.
Where is our highest security? Not in wealth or outer
material resources. It is in the Living
connection with our Master. Our real
safety lies in a spiritual principle.
Only one who has made spiritual practices, his habit will gain this
connection. Our life, our hands and
feet, our mind and heart, are wholly changed as we have bigger, loftier
understanding. Now we see Infinitude
only here and there, casually, but we must create our contact with Him fully.
When someone is connected with his Master, who takes care of
everything, his negative qualities vanish like the thick clouds after a heavy
rain. This divine connection destroys
everything those negative qualities, like anger, intolerance, prejudice, etc.
which disturb his life affecting his evolution. ‘Connect with Him, who
disconnects everything unwanted’.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ Master, the Infinite spirit, help
me to know Thee,
That I may rest my life and strength
and happiness in Thee,
Free my mind from doubt and ignorance,
That I may grow more and more
conscious of Thy tender love and unceasing protection,
May I ever seek Thee and depend on
Thee in all undertakings,
May I find my peace in Thy Divine
Being

“A HINDRANCE CEASES TO BE A
HINDRANCE WHEN WE FACE IT WITH COURAGE”.
O’Master,
Thou dost change all earth’s harsh notes
into heaven’s unspeakable sweetness,
At Thy touch a broken reed sounds Divine
harmony,
And mortal voice sings immortal song,
Bother not the way I select,
Strengthen myself with Thy courage.
In all entanglements, in the midst of turbulence and
adversity, we can walk safely if we have spiritual courage and unfaltering
faith in the Master. Those who are
calculating and dependent on their own strength stumble many times while those
who are fearless and trusting and unspoiled by the vanities of the world they
go through the hardest experiences with undaunted spirit. They triumph over every obstacle.
With the Master, hindrances are nothing. Instead of worrying about obstacles,
strengthen yourself with tremendous courage and faith. If “My Master” in everyone is capacitated,
then the rest is in His hands. Go ahead
with courage. Bring the brightness of
bravery and neglect every fear.
Thoughts of the day:-
My Master, the almighty, helps me to
turn my whole thought and aspiration to Thee,
Thou knowest my innermost struggles
and difficulties,
Thou alone canst remove them,
Open my heart to Thy beneficent
influence.
Grant unto me an undaunted spirit,
May I live this day bravely, looking
to Thee for strength and wisdom to meet each stop.
Yours lovingly,

“MAN IS BORN TO CONQUER
NATURE, NOT TO BE AFFLICTED BY NATURE OR THE WORLD”.
O’ Master,
Be not a puppet in ambitions hand, beaten
and buffeted!
Wouldst thou be enticed and enticed by
ruthless tyrant?
Should a child of eternity stoop so low?
Nay, be not trapped or befooled by the
seeming,
Verify thou art ever free, an heir to
eternal and omniscient Life.
One who is attached to the things of the world, the world
claims that one. One who is wholly given
to God or to ‘My Master’ the world cannot hold or harm him. No matter how much we have blundered, we all
have a right to go to our home. We
should never give way to discouragement or doubt. By acquiring purity of mind
to the level of purity of Nature, anyone can conquer the Nature and nature.
The Nature never punishes anybody. We get punished by it. Once anyone is connected with the Divine
Master or The Nature Consciousness, he neither bothers about the Nature nor
does his nature works against it. The
Nature consciousness or THAT gives the strength to the nature to function. As long as you are not disturbing the
nature’s function, you never get disturbed by the nature.
Thoughts of the day:-
O’ Thou Infinite and eternal Being,
Thou art the One to be known;
Thou art the One to be worshipped,
Free my mind from doubt and ignorance
That I may know Thee truly;
And find in Thee new courage, light,
strength and fearlessness.
Yours lovingly,
SSB
