Quote from true charm and power of Vedanta
Nothing gives greater joy and satisfaction then to serve the Ideal with devotion, loyalty and unfailing selflessness. If you are a true disciple, all blessed qualities must grow stronger and stronger in you every day and the world will leave through you what real devotion to the ideal means . all the power that manifests through you will come from that source. Open the channel for it through constant loving service, humanity and devotion. Then it will flow steadily and the current will grow mightier and mightier every day. So that everyone who comes in contact with it will be blessed with the true spirit of discipleship.
The world is so full of teachers everyone want
to be a master; but the spirit of discipleship is indeed very rare. Pray to
Divine Mother to make you unflinching in your devotion and life, honour, praise
recognition can be great drawbacks to the soul. They awaken the subtle ego and
prevent our spiritual progress. God alone can protect us from such danger. All glory
must go to Him. Offer all the honour, respect and love that you receive from
people at His Divine feet; then you will never create any bondage for yourself.
This is the secret. Do not forget this and you will never make any
mistake. If you will never make any mistake. If you thus glorify your ideal by
your life you will be blessed more and
more every day and bring spiritual blessing to many.
Avoid all killjoys
Scientists tell us that a magnetised piece of steel can lift up iron particles that weigh several times its weight; but if the same piece of steel is demagnetised, it cannot lift so much as a feather’s weight. We can take this analogy to talk about the human mind. When you uncluttered your mind and cleanse your thoughts, you are magnetising your mind. You will find that confidence, hope and optimism fill your mind and you will achieve success and happiness.
When our mind is filled with negative
emotions, we become insecure and fearful. We are overcome by negative thought
patterns; we may think, ‘I may fail,’ or ‘I may lose my money,’ or ‘People may
laugh at me,’ and so on. This kind of thinking weighs us down. We let
opportunities and chances slip by; we are afraid to make bold moves; we begin
to stagnate.…
If we wish to be happy, we must unclutter our
‘house’ — the house of our heart. We must throw out all the joy-killers, the
negative thoughts of greed, ill will, jealousy, malice and envy. But throwing
these out is not enough, we must fill our mind with happy thoughts — thoughts
of purity, prayer, sympathy, service and sacrifice, love and kindness,
prosperity and peace, success and victory.
You are a precious and unique being. Your life
has a purpose and a meaning. How can you allow your life to be weighed down by
killjoys?

–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.
