SPIRITUAL DISCIPLINE

Swami Sivananda

The preceptor will only point out the way. The old evil forces will try to regain an entrance into the mind. Keep a vigilant watch. Search deeply and steadfastly the Atman that dwells in your heart, through introspection, self-analysis and meditation. O aspirant! do not keep money. Money will slacken your dispassion, weaken your will and hinder your spiritual progress. Lead a life of austerity and seclusion. Even a little victory in the inner battle with your mind and senses will develop your will power and give more assurance and courage. But do not be swayed by success. Be humble and grateful. Learn lessons of equal vision from the sun, the fire, the river, the flowers and the air. They serve the peasant and the king, the saint and the sinner, the clerk and the minister. Contd…


A heart that is filled with compassion, forgiveness, cosmic love is the true abode of the Lord.

- Swami Sivananda
