PEACE AND HAPPINESS

1. Evil thoughts are rooted out by the effect of good company. Eradication of evil thoughts forms the basis of man's liberation. Man can attain concentration only when annihilates his evil thoughts. He should make all efforts to foster only good thoughts. And good thoughts are possible only by good company. Therefore, good company should be the main aim of man's life.


2. Virtues are the most effective means for purifying the inner consciousness of man at all levels. They prompt him to discover what to do and how to do. ONly those who have earned good destiny can claim their excellence in discrimination. And, adherence to this determination is the raft which can take man across the ocean of flux and fear. Whatever the residual activity a person has perforce to engage himself in, the impact of that activity will not impinge on him, provided he is a man of virtues. The man of virtues has a place in the region of the liberated; he can merge in the embodiment of Supreme Blisss.

God, Meditation and Morality

1. Those who have love for God are endowed with morality. Morality is the very life-breath of man. Without morality, he is lifeless. The whole human race will be doomed without morality.
2. First you have concentration, then contemplation and thereafter meditation. Therefore, you must have practice of concentration before you do meditation. Meditation comes only after contemplation. Do not think that you will go into meditation the moment you sit with closed eyes. People do this type of artificial meditation but this is not meditation in the real sense of the term. Meditation is that in which you completely transcend your senses and body attachment and forget yourself.
3. The principle of love is present in all. When people develop love, then there will not conflicts in the world. Therefore, you should develop love. Never resort to untruth under any circumstances. If you follow untruth, you will never be able to develop love. Therefore, always adhere to truth. Develop love at all times. You can develop love only by following truth and righteousness. These two qualities are enssential for man.
4. Destroy all your evil qualities such as pride, ego and wickedness. When you drive away all these evil qualities, you will become a pure human being. Wherefrom does humanness come? It comes from the heart; which is not physical heart but the spiritual heart which is free from all blemishes. Like fragrant air, your purity should spread everywhere. You should share with others the pure thoughts and pure feelings that emanate from you. Whatever you do, it should be helpful to other.
5. When you fill a thousand pots with water, the reflection of the sun is seen in all of them. Does it mean that there are different suns in all the pots? No. The sun is only one. All bodies are like pots. It is the same God that is reflected in all of them. Everything is reaction, reflection and resound. You hear the echo of your voice. You see your own reflection in a mirror. You should therefore, see your own reflection in all human beings. If you love someone, it means that you are loving yourself. If you have someone, it means you hate yourself.
HELP EVER, HURT NEVER.
