Control your thoughts. Only you can control your thoughts since no one else determines the things you think about . Nervous stress and worry begin in the mid . they cannot enter your mind unless you allow them to enter. If you want to carry out your affirmation . kept a constant watch upon your thoughts. You think worry before you feel it. So the big thing is to watch the thoughts.

Quote from the true charm and power of Vedanta

Remember how the ancients behaved and mark also how others do now, like corn the mortal, ripens and like corn he is born again.

The whole world is stricken with woes caused by the individual themselves, r by Nature, seen and unseen. That being the condition, every living being deserves to be pitied; who possessed of thought, would then be hostile to any? Supposing one believes, “Other beings are happy; I alone am so abject and powerless” still one ought to be in good sprits! For the outcome of hatred is only loss. If others person bear unabated malice towards one, still the wise man ought to consider them as objects of extreme commiseration, thinking “Ab! these are steeped in their excessive delusion” the whole universe is a spreading –out of the Omnipresent Lord Hence the discerning person must view it without partiality, and as his won self. God, men, beasts, birds and tree-these, though existing apparently different, are the veritable configurations of the infinite all –pervading Lord. He who is aware of this must look upon the entire sentient and insentient creation as his own self; because the Supreme beginning less Blessed Lord . Who is never subjected to any change by the creation , becomes propitious and when He is gracious miseries die away. Vishnu Purana.

 

 

 

But, if He exists?

I drive joy There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 7 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 4m.
