Your real life is with God, and to go back to Him is the reason we are here. He took the trouble to create this world to entertain us, and He wants us to see it as His play. “All things betray thee, who betrayest Me.â€*To go after worldly pleasure and forget God is to set a course to unhappiness. Evil promises happiness and gives sorrow. Would you pick a flower if you knew its mere touch was poisonous? No. -- Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda Excerpts from THE DIVINE ROMANCE (447) !!!~`~!!~`~! !~`~!!~`~ !!~`~!!! '~ Affirmation~ ' " I open my closed eyes of unbelief and behold Thine instantaneously Healing Light. " In the Bible it is said: " Lord, I believe, help Thou my unbelief. " At some time in one's sadhana the devotee arrives at a stage when his beliefs are severely tested. But if he sails through these tests with faith & conviction, then he finds the grace of God instantly manifest in his life. -- Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda Peace unto all hearts. In HIS love. k. !!!~`~!!~`~! !~`~!!~`~ !!~`~!!! Solitude " I am going to the hills to be alone with God, " a student informed Paramahansa Yogananda. You will not advance spiritually in that way, " Paramahansaji replied. " Your mind is not yet ready to concentrate deeply on Spirit. Your thoughts will dwell mostly on memories of people and worldly pastimes, even though you remain in a cave. Cheerful performance of your earthly duties, coupled with daily meditation, is the better path. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
