UNDERSTAND LIFE

Swami Sivananda

Wish good to all beings. This will enrich your life and make you happy and peaceful. Awake! Arise! Know thy Self and be free. Religion gives solace to the weary pilgrim in this earth-plane. It explains life's mystery to him. It shows the path to the immortal abode. Religion is living in God. It is not mere discussion about God. Religion consists in doing good to others, in the practice of love, mercy, truthfulness and purity in all walks of life. O Ram! Freedom is thy goal. Thy goal is here and now. Infinite strength is there. Go thou beyond! Enter the deep silence!


For all practical purposes, it looks that there is nothing in you except this body. "I am hungry, " means the body is hungry; "I am thirsty, " means the body is thirsty; "I am tired, " means the body is tired; "I am born, " means the body is born; "I am dying, " means the body is dying. So whenever we make any reference to ourselves, we refer to the body only, as if there is nothing else in us.
