Thought for the day


It is your feelings, which give you birth, name and form.


From the book Vedic Principles for Meditation



“Dispassion for the world destroys all desires and makes one empty. Bearing others burden creates more and more worldly karma.”

Å Wealth, status, popularity, family, relationship – all these are perishable. Only sacrifice is permanent in this world as it bestows the eternal state.

Å Prema and sacrifice are like two parallel lines. Sacrifice thrives through Prema and Prema grows due to sacrifice.

Å Practice small acts of sacrifice and see for yourself the happiness that you derive.

Å The only way to secure real peace is through the path of sacrifice.

Å Sacrifice arises from dispassion. When one is firmly established in the Truth that God alone is real and all else is Maya, dispassion will automatically come.

Å We have to free ourselves from Maya. We have to sacrifice all. We should not have a single desire.

Å Sacrifice is the key to Truth.

Å Mukthi will only be attained by sacrificing everything. There is only one way to liberation- Sacrifice! Sacrifice! Sacrifice!
