Want Not

Next time you are waiting for anything, notice what you are wanting! 

This will be a source of your tension or impatience. 

All desire has fear built in - fear of not getting or losing, even before your desire is fulfilled.

Introspection

Introspection is the attitude of going inside when it's necessary. 

It is especially applicable before a task or a busy day. 

The result of going inside is peace and calmness, which gives clarity to the intellect for making right decisions. 

Introspection does not mean avoiding the world, it means going inside and getting empowered to act along with others.

Introversion

The ability to enjoy one's own company is one of the greatest gifts life has to offer. 

Learning to turn my thoughts away from all my responsibilities at the day's end and take my mind into a state of peace and benevolence enables me to carry greater and greater loads without feeling the burden. 

When my inner landscape is full of beautiful thoughts, everything I do is a pleasure. 

Gently, I calm down chaotic situations and offer solace to troubled minds.

Get Grateful Now

Even when you feel as though things aren't going well in your life, you have reasons to be grateful. 

Today, take time to appreciate the gift of life and all its wonders. 

Count your blessings and cherish what you have.

Go Deep

Most of us think too much, especially about events and people, local and global, famous and not so famous. 

When we are always thinking about what is happening on the surface of life, the visible, then it is as if we are living a superficial life. 

And when two people who both live on the surface meet, the exchange, the conversation, is superficial, sometimes totally bereft of meaning. 

Often it leaves us totally unsatisfied. And as we share news of our surface observations, we come to know our own superficiality, but we are not strong enough to resist it. 

Deep down inside there is a voice, a longing, a calling to depth. 

It's our heart, reminding us to visit, explore and express the depths of our ourselves.

Peace and Good Feelings

Fill your mind with peace and good feelings and your mind will give that experience in return. 

Whatever you are experiencing in your mind now is what you put there earlier on.

Steps of Self realization

Step 1: Morality

Step 2: Samadhi – Meditation leading to Samadhi

If the inner environment is free from negativism then only can meditation lead one to Samadhi. If the inner cleanliness is not attained, even if one might meditate 2-3 times a day, he will NOT reach Samadhi even in 100 years of practice. Therefore, one must practice Morality extremely sincerely at any cost to progress to Samadhi.

Only the higher states of Samadhi can evoke Self-realization. Inner wisdom starts sprouting gradually and you will soon attain the Supreme Truth.
