Guest guest Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 I could never have done my National Police Academy 6 8 Prema Vahini Sadhana—The Way of Life There have always been, there are, and there will always be teachers who reveal to man and who instruct him to attain the heights which he can reach by the fullest manifestation of his physical, mental and intellectual powers, through one-pointed steadfastness. The mind of man revels in external objects and in purposeless observation and criticism of the outside world. How then can it be trained to be steadfast? Each one should ask himself the question: Mahatmas and Mahapurushas were also persons like me, they were also embodied beings. When they could attain perfection, I can also succeed, if I follow their method. What profits me if I spend my time in discovering the faults and weakness of others? Therefore the first sadhana (spiritual practice) is, search for the faults and weaknesses within thyself and strive to correct them and become perfect. The unceasing toil of each succeeding day has as its aim and justification this consummation; to make one’s last days sweet and pleasant. But each day, too, has its evening. If the day is spent in good deeds, then the evening blesses us with deep sleep, invigorating refreshing sleep, the sleep about which it is said that it is akin to Samaadhi (superconscious state, transcending the body, mind and intellect). Man has only a short span of life, here upon earth. But even in this short life one can, by wisely using the time with care, attain Divine Bliss. Two men, in appearance the same, ostensibly of the same mould, grow under the same conditions, but one turns out to be an angel while the other stays on with his animal nature. What is the reason for this differential development? Habits and the behaviour formed out of these habits, and the character into which that behaviour has solidified. Man is the creature of character. (Sharing with Sai Love) Ram.chugani.Ram ChuganiKobe, Japanrgcjp Be a better sports nut! Let your teams follow you with Mobile. Try it now.
