Quote from the True Charm and Power of Vedanta

Spiritual Healing

 Help is lasting only when it shows us how to bring ourselves into union with the Source, and when we have learned to do that , we have no further need of healing because there  is a constant flux of life in us which keeps us well. What impedes that flow now? It is our attitude of mind-doubt, despair, all the various phases of worldly consciousness, which makes us feel more united with the body than with Spirit the more we think of the body, the less are we conscious of that which sustains the body.

Vedic teaching declares with dynamic force. The soul of man is eternal, unbounded, it is not bound by body or senses or pain or affections it is free, pure and perfect. If through contemplation we are able to lift our thought to the place where this is a reality, we are restored. if we can separate ourselves-not through death but through higher reflection-from our body consciousness, at once we are released from bodily pain. We must not do it, however as beggars, asking for health or physical comfort. It must be done with superior feeling and understanding. We must seek the higher –for the sake of the higher, not merely in order to benefit the lower nature; otherwise we shall miss our end.

 

Healing and Happiness

The Speaking Tree | Spirituality

By TK MISHRA

 

The pandemic makes us think of how being kind to others contributes to healing and happiness. Look at yourself not just as a body but also as a soul and a heart.

 

‘Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared,’ the Buddha said.

 

We have to learn how to be kind to oneself as well as others. We have to motivate ourselves to get involved in altruistic projects that contribute to humanity and make our world a better place to live.

 When you give of yourself, you not only contribute to the happiness of others, you also find yourself happier, and derive deeper meaning from life. Altruism is in your self-interest, and if done creatively, may well be the greatest gift you can give to yourself.

 While you are doing altruistic acts, you are in the goodness mode, you get spiritual rewards, you have a sense of freedom from desires and complaints, have no upsetting thoughts and emotions inside, no urge to hang on to own problems or future insecurities, you are not afraid of failure, and are free from wanting happiness.

 Being kind and generous takes the focus away from one’s worries and elicits gratitude, and this, in turn, boosts happiness levels. Findings show that it remarkably improves overall health. Also, when we help others, we feel more capable, effective and abundant.

 

Experts say there are three essential rules for giving. First, make sure to contain the cost of giving. Second, be sure to use value-enhancing strategies.

 

Finally, make sure that you see the impact of your generosity.

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.
