Fire of Truth
Master
When the Fire of ‘Truth burns in the heart,
It purifies the heart.
When its spark comes out of the tongue,
It is vibrant with light.
Lo, it falls upon the ear that is not closed to the subtle, spiritual sound, like far-distant music,
Rousing the soul to a new world.
Fire of Truth,-when it burns in heart,
It purifies the heart.
When it burns in the mouth, it purifies the mouth,
It purifies mind, and glorifies the soul.
Disciple
Compassionate Sire, what nature is this fire
Teach me how to kindle it.
Master
It is flame , without smoke;
It burns without fuel, save what is not visible to the eyes.
It burns in the mouth of the wise.
It dwells in the heart of love.
It is the perpetual altar fire where saints pour their oblation of worship.
It is eternal life.
It dwells in thee, though thou knowest it not, dormant, hidden at they inmost recess.
When they uncovered heat will catch
The spark that cometh out from the mouth that speaketh the Fire of Truth.
Then will be lighted in thee this smokeless , eternal Flame.
Accept The Person And The Situation
The first step in improving another is to accept him as he is . nothing reinforces defensive behavior more than judgment and comparison. A feeling of acceptance and worth frees a person from the need to defend and helps release the natural growth tendency to improve. Acceptance is not condoning a weakens. Rather , it is affirming the real worth of a another.
Accept wisdom
The wise should learn to accept wisdom from anybody, even from a child. Doesn’t the small nightcap brighten things which the sun cannot?
Inability To Think
Most of the disorders and evils in human life are the result of man’s inability to sit still and think.
No happiness Without Action
Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action.
As a judge
Conscience warns us as a friend before it punishes as a judge.
No cosmetic
There is no cosmetic for beauty like happiness
Cause and Effect
Cause and effect, means and ends, seed and fruit, cannot be separated; for the effect already exists in the cause, the end preexists in the means as the fruit in the seed.
Great Circles And Small Circles
Great circles are imaginary circles whose plane, passing through the centre of the Earth divides it into two equal parts. Small circles are very much similar to the great circles. The major difference between great circles (that which pass through the centre of the Earth) and small circles is that their plane does not pas through the Earth’s Centre . All the parallels of the latitude, north and south of the Equator make small circles.
Concentration in meditation comes from practice in concentrating on every work that you do.
To Discipline Our Mind
To discipline our mind and senses you have to have the patience of a mother whose child wants to run out of the gate –she patiently brings it back every time it tires to run out, until the child learns not to do it any more.
Romanticism
Romanticism is a style that dominated the Art, Literature, and Music of the late 18th century and 19th centuries. The movement arose as a rejection of the classical style in the, dating back to Ancient Greece and Rome.
In the midst of a great joy do not promise anyone anything. In the midst of greater anger do not answer anyone’s letter.
I drive joy
There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 5 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something, which he had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the 10 minutes joy that I derive from? I am not robbing you of your joy; why should you rob me of mine. He asked. The critics were silenced. –Baba- Chinna Katha
