PEACEFUL LIFE THROUGH SELF CONTROL

PEACEFUL LIFE THROUGH SELF CONTROL

 

There are three ways to destroy jealousy. One is by thinking - " The

whole world, with all its enjoyments, wealth and luxury is illusory.

What do I possibly gain by being jealous of another? " When anyone

thinks seriously about this, several times a day, the thought or

feeling of jealousy slowly dies. This feeling of jealousy is deep-

rooted. It is the root of all miseries.

 

The second way is to have the feeling of universal brotherhood. You

are not jealous of your intimate friend or loving brother - because

you have become one with them. Do this with everybody. Love everybody

as your own brother or friend. Then you will have no jealousy.

 

The third way to destroy jealousy, is a developed stage. Just

repeat the formula, " I am the all " - " I am the all-in-all " . Think

that there is nothing but atman, your own self, everywhere. Jealousy

will slowly vanish. You will experience infinite joy.

 

Man sees his own reflection in all people but foolishly imagines

that they are different from him and he/she fights with them. He/She

fights on account of feelings of jealousy and hatred. Here what we have to learn

is mainly " Love All - Serve All " " Help ever - Hurt never "

 

Spiritual discernment is what is most needed. Where there is

duality, by virtue of ignorance, one sees all things as distinct from

the self, the atman. When everything is seen as the self, then there

is not even an atom other than self. Duality is the root of misery.

Realise non-dual consciousness and you will attain bliss everlasting.

 

Your attitude to the universe should be the same as your attitude

to your self. Man is a member of a great fraternity. Woman is the

counterpart of man. Without self-control the new world order can have

no lasting strength of character. He who is pure and self-controlled

is always peaceful. His life is always successful.

 

Baba is every where just feel him and keep on saying `Om Sai Ram' to

whom so ever you meet.

Bhagwan Baba who is the incarnation of all gods and protector of all,

of " Shraddha " and " Saburi "
