August, 1942. Piotrkow, Poland. The sky was gloomy that morning as we waited anxiously. All the men, women, and children of Piotrkow’s Jewish ghetto had been herded into a square. Word had gotten around that we were being moved. My father had only recently died from typhus, which had run rampant through the crowded ghetto. My greatest fear was that our family would be separated. “Whatever you do,” Isidore, my eldest brother, whispered to me, “don’t tell them your age. Say you’re sixteen.” I w... read more

The story goes that some time ago, a man punished his three-year-old Daughter for wasting a role of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he was furious when the child tried to decorated a box.

Nevertheless the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, "THIS IS FOR YOU DADDY". He was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found the box was empty. He yelled at her, don't you know when you give someone a present, there is... read more

EFFECTIVE PRAYER REQUIRES AFFIRMATION, NOT PETITION
by J. Donald Walters

A classic book by Arthur M. Abell, Talks with Great Composers, published in 1955 by Philosophical Library, reports fascinating conversations Abell had with a number of nineteenth-century composers on the question of how they got their inspirations.

Johannes Brahms stated that he received his inspirations, always in a prayerful state. During those times of inner upliftment, he said, he felt himself to be in commun... read more

By Swami Kriyananda

You devas of woodland,
Of mountain and field:
Come shower on us blessings and light.
The wonders that Nature,
Befriended, can yield
Expose to our hearing and sight.

Your melodies, whispering joy on the air,
Reveal that God's everywhere.

O devas of woodland,
Of mountain and field:
Be with us in blessing this night!

...(Swami Vivekananda).

What is fear? To underestimate ourselves.

-Show appreciation for the opinions of others. Appreciation is the link most often missing from the chain of meaningful communication-

I have noticed in so much conversation even when there is agreement there is a lack of appreciation.
It seems to me that appreciation is the mark of a refined soul. Someone who can give others space to be himself and appreciate not only his right to that space but appreciate where he is coming from. Appreciate his particular slang tone on things. Appreciat... read more

"Habits can be overcome in a day.
They are only the mind concentrate in one way.
Concentrate it in another way... and you will be able to change that consciousness, change that attitude." (Paramahasa Yogananda)

"You are not that body, you are not that personality.
Remember : you are free as you choose to be." (Swami Kryananda)

I have discovered that if you transform a snow flake in water and then again you transform it back in a snow flake... It will have the same identical shape.
is it not amazing?
every drop has his cool way to love the Earth.

...my spiritual Master used to say.

Is it not true?

by Paramhansa Yogananda
from Inner Culture Magazine, December 1934

For twenty centuries the birth of Christ has been celebrated differently by the different Christian sects. Many have counted the coming of Christmas as a time for exchanging nicely caparisoned, costly gifts. Many children look upon Christmas as the time for Santa Claus to give them new toys. They hang empty stockings around the chimney place. Santa is supposed to slip down the sooty opening of the chimney and fill the stoc... read more

If you can give to somebody the gift of communication
If you can give to somebody the gift of loyalty to your inner truth
You will contribute to dissolve our veil of ignorance.

I bow to LIFE
because She allows man with an open heart
to be crossed by a ray of light.

I bow to LIFE
that strenuously heals our ignorance,
our roughness
toward LIFE itself.

21) AVOID WISHFUL THINKING. TRY TO HARMONIZE YOURSELF WITH WHATEVER IS.


TWENTY-SIX KEYS To Living With GREATER AWARENESS

(Beautiful Photo from Gea Page "people.tribe.net/3015ae4f-...2bb")

by J. Donald Walters

A study of the lives of successful men and women suggests two characteristics that are common to all of them: 1) an abundance of energy, particularly for those activities in which they achieved their success; and 2) a greater-than-usual degree of awareness. These characteristics are as common to success in business as in politics, in sports as in entertainment, in the sciences as in the arts. A deficiency of both, by contrast, is the single most common feature among pe... read more

Some Navajo children once taught a school teacher a valuable lesson in human relations. During his first week at their school, the teacher asked one of his Navajo students to answer a simple question. The young boy couldn’t answer correctly, so the teacher asked if anyone else knew the answer. The other Navajo children, however, stared straight ahead and wouldn’t respond.
The teacher was puzzle by their silence because he felt that most of them knew the answer. Later, the teacher learned why... read more

Paramhansa Yogananda appeared in a dream some time ago to a young Brazilian woman named Roberta during a visit she paid to Ananda Village. The Master spoke only one word to Roberta, but it changed her life and countless others. A year later, Roberta invited an Ananda minister to lecture at her university. During his visit, that minister heard man... read more

(...) Divine Mother gives us not only pleasant things, but She reminds us clearly that the world is not perfect, it will never give us everything we need. It is a mix of sand and sugar in the same proportions. This is the very simple law of Maya. (...) We should be grateful for both. If there were no shadows, at least here, in the realm of relativity, light would be less beautiful. Therefore this Year for Thanks Giving Day we thank Divine Mother not for Her gifts, but for that love that gives... read more

The joyous rays of my soul can be perceived if I interiorize my attention. I will use the architect of my mind to enjoy the beautiful scenery of thoughts in the invisible, tangible kingdom within me.

(Paramahasa Yogananda)

iaT you are pure
light beauty
a small brilliant flight in the heart of God
you are a gift for who sees high flying
of the soul a smile
you are grace
iaT you are a tiny gift
you are in my heart always
the ethereal glow of the eternal
liquid joy for everyone
you are alive
you are nature
absorbed blade of straw in the sky
brilliant for loving everything
you are reflection, glare in the air
a door
iaT you are pure
unique love
eternal beauty of a small light

My Guru told a (probably mythical) story about a village in India in which three people died unaccountably of some disease. Concerned, the villagers repaired in a group to a solitary sadhu (holy man) who lived outside the village, and asked him to intercede. The sadhu meditated, and saw that the disease had been caused by a demon. He summoned the demon an told him, “this village is under my protection. Leave it alone.” The demon promised to obey.
A week later, at least a hundred other peopl... read more

CHAPTER ONE
The following questions somehow got put to my mind last night in a dream. I’d been given certain insights in the dream, and realized after I’d thought about them for a time after waking that I’d never get back to sleep as long as these thoughts lingered in my mind. The other side of whether to get up or go back and get my normal hours of sleep was that even if I did manage to go back to sleep, upon waking I would probably have forgotten just what that inspiration had been. Were t... read more

“Master,” said one of the disciples who was sitting with him on a ledge high above the plains, “something has always puzzled me. Why is Self-realization so slow in coming? If God is the nearest of the near and the dearest of the dear, why does it take so long to find Him?”

The Master smiled quietly. “You are a sincere disciple, and this is a very deep question. Sit and relax, still your heart and mind, and listen. The quick answer is that you must release all identif... read more

Divine experiences are outside of time and space. Seemingly distant, at least in time, their truth is ever present beneath the surface restlessness of life. Paramhansa Yogananda used to say that time is like a motion picture film. It can be turned backward or forward at will by the projectionist, whose sense of time is unrelated to the episodes on the film. This simile is inexact, of course; similes always are. For if we think of God as the projectionist, time doesn’t pass for Him as the film... read more

A blend of the seven colours of the rainbow: All forgiving innocence, mental clarity, a heart kept open to the needs of others.
Think white.
When we think white as a blend of all the colours, you look at the snow scene, if somebody wanted to paint a snow scene with nothing but white it wouldn’t look real, it wouldn’t be real. The white of the snow reflects this: the trees, the sky, the clouds, many colours are contained in that white and so also in purity, so also in true innocence, so al... read more

I have right now received a beautiful letter which fulfills myself with so much love...
this is a cut:

(...)We usually have staff meetings on Tuesday nights and had planned to have one last week as usual. However, about mid-afternoon, we all received SMSs from Dharmadas and Nirmala saying that there would be a movie at Swamiji’s house instead. So everyone arrived expecting to go upstairs for a movie, when suddenly Swamiji shifted gears. As many of you know, Swamiji has been writing Maste... read more

Most High, all-powerful, good Lord,
all praise is yours, all glory, all honor,
and all blessing.

To you, alone, Most High, do they belong.
No mortal lips are worthy to pronounce your name.

All praise be yours, my Lord,
through all you have made,
and first my lord Brother Sun, who brings the day;
and through whom you give us light.
How beautiful is he, how radiant in all his splendor;
Of you, Most High, he bears the likeness.
All Praise be yours, my Lord, through Sister ... read more
