How Do You Meditate? You Meditate With An Inner Cry. There Should Be An Inner Cry Here, In The Heart. The Outer Cry Is Ego-centred; It Wants Name And Fame. ... While You Are Feeling This Inner Cry, You Try To Make The Mind Absolutely Calm And Quiet. If A Thought Enters Your Mind, You Try To Reject It. Consider This Thought As A Fly. When A Fly Comes To Land On Your Arm, You Don't Allow The Fly To Remain; You Just Wave Your Hand And It Goes Away.

God Is Beyond Definition. But According To One's Own Vision Or Receptivity, One Will Define God In One's Own Way. Some Will Say That God Is All Love. Others Will Say That God Is All Power.

Everyday We Are Breathing In And Breathing Out, But Do We Ever Feel Grateful To The Air? If We Do Not Drink Water, We Cannot Survive. Even Our Body Is Composed To A Large Extent Of Water.but Do We Give Any Value To Water? Every Morning When We Open Our Eyes, We See The Sun Blessingfully Offering Us Light And Life-energy, Which We Badly Need. But Are We Grateful To The Sun?

The Goal Can Disappear From The Mind's Sight But Not From The Heart's Vision.

The World Is For Newness, Not For Oldness. New, New Things We Have To Create. Then Only The World Will Progress. If Not, We Will Come To Feel That There Is Nothing New Under The Sun.

In This World, Man Has Two Significant Possessions: Intelligence And Emotion. These Two Possessions Govern Our Day-to-day Life.
